We picked up a story about Qualcomm-based HTC units having video performance issues. HTC have now issued us with their official response, which goes as follows... "HTC is committed to delivering a portfolio of devices that offer a wide variety of com...

I've had a couple of interesting emails this week from Windows Mobile owners who were about to "jump ship" to other handsets. They were both at the point of upgrading to non-Windows Mobile phones until they downloaded a "cooked" ROM. Now they're happy...

With the HTC Touch Dual available on Orange and shortly T-Mobile I thought it was worth mentioning a few cool features that are hidden away in the phone. In "Settings->Personal->Phone" there's a tab called "Advanced" that can do some pretty cool stuff...

A few sources mentioned a possible launch of the HTC S730 on o2 yesterday and now it seems that the HTC Touch Dual may be joining it. We originally doubted the information, especially as it came mainly from a free press release website, however we've ...

Meet the Toshiba Portégé G710. It'll run Windows Mobile 6 Standard, so there'll be no touch-screen action, however there's GPS and a vivid QVGA screen at 480x800. 3G is sadly missing from the mix, but the QWERTY-messaging phone does get quad-band G...

We spotted this over a month ago on the FCC but now it's being shown off officially at Toshiba Press Conferences. The Toshiba Portégé G910 will no doubt replace the G900 and is a clamshell design using Windows Mobile 6 Pro. The easy-to-use QWERTY an...

My current phone is the HTC Touch Dual from Orange. Yesterday I bumped into someone else who has one and they posed a very interesting question.. "It'll unlock when I open the slider, but when I close the slider it won't lock automatically. How do you...

There's a few murmours on the web stating that the HTC S730 will be available on o2 UK. It all seems to spout from this free Press Release although the author is fairly respectable. There's no news of this on the o2 website and we're yet to hear …

A lot of people downloaded Google Mobile Maps recently after the new "GPS-less" location system was introduced. It works by grabbing information from local transmitters to get your location but many Orange users just couldn't make it work. The fix, fo...

We ran a story yesterday relating to possible issues with drivers on HTC devices using the Qualcomm chipset. The problems relate mainly to video speed, and not processing power, however I wanted to give it a try myself to double-check the rumours. I'm...

The All-in-1 Mobile Video Converter does what it says on the tin. Converting any video format into a format used by your phone, this is an easy-to-use product that won't baffle you with technical details. Just choose your device from the list and sele...

I've had a few emails about htcclassaction.org. The site is seeking drivers for HTC phones running Qualcomm MSM7200 and MSM7500 chipsets to address an apparent slowness in video performance. The site links to YouTube videos like this, showing the diff...

We've just had an update on the stock situation for the HTC Touch Cruise. Devicewire are getting these today but stock will be going out to people who have already registered their interest first. Get over to this page if you're after one (network fre...

Say hello to the HTC Pharos. It looks a helluva lot like the o2 XDA Orbit 2 (aka the Touch Cruise), although HTC have put a slower 200Mhz TI OMAP 850 into the Pharos instead of the 400Mhz Qualcomm chip found in the Cruise. Selling as the HTC …

I love Samsung Windows Mobile phones. The i320 was a big favourite of mine so it's great to see this "not watermarked very much" image of the upcoming Samsung i900. This, if the rumours are true, will be powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 with a whacking 5...

It was released some time back, but we never managed to get hold of one. The HTC Advantage always felt like "the one that got away". It's taken some time, but we finally managed to hunt one down. The device comes in two flavours, the Windows Mobile 5-...

I was lucky enough to review the HTC Shift some months back and even tried it out at my local pub. "Yes, yes", I hear you cry, "that's all well and good, but it's still not available to buy is it?" Well, no.. Not yet, but there's some …

OK, I give in :) The guys at CooTek have bombarded us with mails, so here's their new product - it's an update on their earlier product - TouchPal. The new version, TouchPal V2, includes the ability to switch to punctuatiuons and digits easily, mistyp...

The AT&T Tilt / HTC TyTN II / Kaiser is a top end and quite expensive handset. Owners of this power-house handset will no doubt want to keep it shiny and scratch-free, however it's proved difficult to get a good cover for the tilting handset... until ...

You may have noticed some porn popping up in our forum recently. We've been lucky enough to avoid large amounts of spam until now because the registration system checks to see if you're "human" by asking questions such as "Is this beer?" etc. We've al...
