I like too much this phone, but I have some questions before order it
1 Can I used it with CDMA?
2 Can I install several applicarions such as the original iphone, for example games and software and in case to be affirmative where can I download the software. I am doing this question due to I want to use some applications that I am using in my jailbroken ipod touch, so I wonder if I can use some of them in the phone.
I have seen a lot of china phones sold here in the philippines and most of them just copy the look of more expensive phones like the iphone or nokia eseries. I would like to get a phone like this and it meets all my needs without putting a dent on my budget. I've never done online shopping and I don't have any credit card or something I would like to know if you have a store here in the philippines, particularly in Cebu. Thank you.
helo have some questions here b4 I try to get this phone,
1. I have a 3g sim that i use for my internet connection, can i use this in this phone? if so , is it just plug-and-play kind'a thing or i should get 3rd party softwares or any add-ons?
2.) i read on my sites that this gizmo does not stream or have problems streaming on youtube, is there any way we could pass around this problem?
in answer to your first question no you won't be able to use your 3G SIM card in this phone
In answer to your second question generally speaking, as far as we are aware you aren't able to watch youtube videos from the site but if you really wanted to watch them it does handle FLV files so you could get the videos using the video downloader helper addon with firefox.
the streaming for youtube doesn't work on mine it says cannot connect and i cannot update the default games on it i cannot find any motion java games for it because it can only play .jars not .ipa files im looking ofr motion games if anyone knows please comment on my profile tv works accelerometer works wifi works but player doesn't play youtube for me .jar touchscreen games work ty.
Ps: Pm Me youtube fix and afew motion games please and ty
they have new phones on their site that are both full touchscreen and full keyboard. I bought the Cloud9 phone and even though the touchscreen texting is the same as it looks here, i seem to be able to text better now that the screen is above the keyboard. and when i dont feel like using the touchscreen i use the keyboard thats all :)
@yojoe71 ..... really,... i think u never even touched an HTC phone before, cause dey have the best touch sensitive phone ever...way better den Iphone
i wantt to know whats the quatlity of the digital camera...and i seen that it responds difficult at touching the screen..I really like chinavasions products but i dont like the fact that the touch screen phones are not as sensitive as other big name products
they have new phones on their site that are full touchscreen and full keyboard. the texting looks the same as here but it seems easier to text for me now that screen is higher b/c of the keyboard. and when i dont want to use the touchscreen i just use the keyboard
Hi im having a problem connecting to my laptop i use to connect by plugging in the usb cable provided with the phone and transfer files without any problems now when i plug in the phone nothing happens it doesnt show any type of communication and this is a problem im having while trying to connect to any computer now yet when i use the usb cable to charge my phone with the charger adapter it works just fine plz help me im lost at what the problem is are there drivers i can reinstall or something

ty i got it and im using microSDHC and its working.
So the phone is great, im trying to figure it out right now, some things are that it doesnt take mobile themes just wallpaper and screensaver, also its hard to find games for this phone and i can't connect to my access point but i think that's my router idk
No problem, we're happy to help. If you'd like to learn more about the phone you're always welcome to click on the link in the video description box to the right of the video
also my java is backwords, i go onto google maps and if i click on menu, it starts loading the address, n then if i want to select close i hav to press the top left of the screen instead of the where it says close, how cud this b fixed??
This is the type of phone I have been looking for use my wifi I already pay for more and with my cell phone without another charge ...were can I get one any help
I was wondering if the Odyssey has a digital qwerty keyboard in landscape mode? :)
I know you guys sell a few phones with a physical qwerty keyboard but I prefer digital over physical that's why I am interested in this phone. Thanks =]
I was wondering about this too before i ordered the phone but i ordered it anyway and so far the texting and typing is great in portrait mode, once u get used to it, you can hardly make errors
