The O2 XDA Atom? Is it HTC Model? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Does anyone know the O2 xda Atom will be lunached in Germany or not? Is it HTC Model? I heard Asia already lunached, I like the model very much! If not HTC, then which manufacturer?

It's not an HTC device. If you do a search you should find out who makes it.

I am sure it will be released in germany as most handsets released in Asia are soo launched there as well. Its made by rival taiwanese manufacturers Quanta.
Was reading on one of the singaporean forums that someone compared the compact II with it and although it had an xscale processor, they thought the performance wasnt as good as the compact II.

Indeed - and what a catchy tag line! "Keep the world in one!"
As HTC is Taiwan based company, it has the website here: http://www.htc.com.tw
No QTEK
support though - where do we get firmware updates from when they arrive?
Also, how about Windows Pocket - as far as I can see on the Windows Mobile site there's no downloads/support available.
For one we need the WiFi upgraded at some point...
Better buy an iMater, they have a support page and forum. :?

O2 XDA Orbit Coming Soon

Might be old news, but XDA Orbit has finally appeared on the O2 UK website
https://shop.o2.co.uk/ComingSoon
I'll certainly be looking to buy one!!
XDA Orbit
I spoke to O2 customer services at the end of last month and they told me that it would be available in November. I was a little skeptical and bought the P3300 from Expansys on O2 as they're not offering the Trion yet. From past experience I wouldn't count on it.
I should have waited for the o2 version, been a big fan since my EXEC. Although I was under the impression that o2's relationship with HTC ended along with i-mates. Very happy to see a HTC phone coming from o2, but I wonder will there be more to come?
Long live ASUS
I believe the HTC relationship has been closed off (with regard to new handsets).
Expect new handsets to come from ASUS (i.e. ZInc, Graphite, etc.) due in Jan.
Apparently someone in O2 Customer Service said that their spanky looking Artemis version was being released on the 27th of this month.
27th release date is correct.
Cheers

Dude, Do ya know if this device is meant for the Asia market or not?
Coz I remembered here in Singapore, we had Dopod 818Pro instead of the Neo... which means to say only 1 brand will appear here, and that is Dopod.
Can only talk for UK, Germany, and Ireland, i suspect it will not be seen in Asia.

With reference to this Orbit review:
http://www.4winmobile.com/viewtopic.php?p=42938
There are 2 things that I'm puzzled:
1) Infrared Gate: IrDA 1.2, 115200bit/s (SIR/CIR)
I thought the Artemis doesn't have Irda? Is there a mistake in the review?
2) Bluetooth: Bluetooth 1.2
Pretty much everywhere else says its got BT2.0. This review mention that it has BT1.2.
WiFi support is present for both 802.11b and 802.11g connectivity, but unfortunately Bluetooth is still the older 1.2 specification and not the hoped for 2.0 which supports A2DP, etc.
That said Bluetooth connections to the Jabra BT500 headset have been clear and voice dialing is supported and works well.

LB, have ya tried A2DP on this device yet?
Thanks!
MasK,
Yes I have but only with the Samsung SBH 170 headset and it appears to work OK if a little limited in range.
Cheers
LB
launch date
I think this is always the same with a new hardset from O2 but i've just got off the phone with o2 select support and they reckon it's not out till after Christmas :-(
The O2 website is saying its this month.
https://shop.o2.co.uk/ComingSoon
Worth noting though that different service providers within O2 will choose to stock it at different times, so maybe Select are next year.
the O2 Orbit would most probably be released in other parts of the world except asia coz its released bt Dopod instead
LB,
I know this sounds crazy.. but does the device have glabal warranty?
Secondly, do ya think it's available in the Netherlands? It does seem better looking and more sophisticated compared to the stock Artemis, and I'm wondering what my chances are in getting that into Asia. Thanks!
MasK,
The warranty will be valid if purchased from O2, i guess you are asking whether you can get it repaired if you take it outside the UK? I am not aware of any plans to sell the device in the Netherlands, alough it will be available in Germany.
Cheers
LB
So if O2 don't release on the 27th (this month), the same way I've moved last year from Orange I can move this year to T-Mobile which have the MDA III.
Didn't quite like the phone signal on the Exec anyway...but if they do release...and they have a similar price as T-Mobile, then it isn't worth the hassle. Can't wait till after Christmas...can you?
Well.. It's not abt waiting. In fact, I'm quite confident the new HTC devices (at least the Artemis) is gonna be released by end of this month during an IT exhibition. The thing is, the Orbit looks nicer than the original Artemis. It'll be real nice to have one here for the sake of uniqueness
Well, I in fact like the original as it's a bit...square.

Hmm.. yeah.. I do like squary designs.
It just seems that the Orbit has a better colour combination (something the Atom should have int he first place, instead of making it all black!)
Anyways, design-wise.. the Artemis is definitely better than the trinity, imho. At least they got out of the magician/prophet form factor.

Hi everyone!
I've just had my O2 customer services representative on the phone to confirm that next week I will have the XDA Orbit delivered to my office, so it seems that this time they have done they homework...
Can't wait to play with it!

HTC P3300 or O2 XDA Orbit

Hello,
I'm a newbie to this forum. Yes, before you all say anything I know they'r the same thing, packaged differently.
Since I'm in Canada, I'll be paying full price for either of those two, unlocked ofcourse. Was wondering if there are any pros/cons to either those two and which one would you all recommend?
Thanks
With Artemis you should have HTC patches and upgrades, with branded devices you may wait longer (for O2, Orange... software releases). HTC officially announced WM6 ROM for Artemis and help for other brands if they will decide to buy WM6 license, but you don't know if they will...
Will O2 be offering a WM6 upgrade? Someone just posted that O2 will not be offering an update. I'm wondering if I shud get O2 or not. I really like the Orbit, but now im confused.
O2 havo no plans to upgrade for now, but they don't say no for ever - so we don't really know...
I've ordered HTC P3300 only because everything seems confirmed for it, plus I'm getting it with all North American maps. Will let you guys know when I recieve it in a few days.

[Q] Does HTC one X make depend on the country it is being sold?

Hi guys,
As HTC One X is not official in my country yet, there are some mobile shop sellers selling HTC One X for 500 euros. Yet, I have no clue where are they coming from, and the worse I don't know whether there is any difference between a German, Czech, Italian, French or whatsoever HTC One X...
As I am planning to buy one, I would appreciate your help.
If there is any difference, how can you tell for which country it is designated?
Best,
F.
I believe there's not difference, other than the AC plug. But I'm interested on that 500€ deal... Is it legit? Where?
you would have different power plugs and would need the right adapter, and also OTA updates from HTC would come at different times.
firmware would be different I believe.
I know ones from Asia etc....have the asian RUU firmware and radios etc...I think thats how it works at least
I assume it is the RUU and Radio only, besides the plug... the seller told me that they have been imported from Dubai and I got a great deal... I am returning my used HD2, and getting a brand new One X for 350 EUR.
Thnx for the feedback guys!
F.

I think you have to wait for the international model for o2 in the UK.
o2 uses B20 and none of the Korean models support that (well, from what I have seen).
I'm sure someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
