@bobphillips99

[thewebmogul]

check out my HTC TP2 in action

[chipmaster86]

This isn't a touch pro 2. This is the older touch. The pro 2 has 4 buttons on top.

[WallStreet913]

@chipmaster86 dude your dead wrong this is the HTC Touch Pro 2 idk what HTC phone your looking at that has 4 buttons on top but this is dif a TP2

[chipmaster86]

The one I have is the Rhodium, that has the 4 buttons on the bottom. Also called the HTC touch pro 2 by Tmobile. Am I wrong about this for this model in the video? Let me know.

[WallStreet913]

Eariler you said 4 buttons on the top now your saying 4 buttons on the bottons on the bottom...

[chipmaster86]

I apologize, I mean the 4 buttons on the bottom. the four are off hang, home, back, on hang

[WallStreet913]

Its alright no need to apologize im reading back on the comments and I see the easy mistake.

Be Cool Take It Easy

[chipmaster86]

Like the one in my videos. It is the same as the one I got for the deal I got for free on this phone. It is the TP2 from Tmobile. The Rhodium model.

[bransened]

There is actually a dungle that comes with the phone that converts the USB to 2.5 and 3.5 mm. I use it in my car.

[65bits]

Yes there is, but we prefer if you don't have to go out and spend money on something that we felt should have been there in the first place, a dedicated 3.5mm jack. Plus now you have to decide between charging or audio. HTC knows this too, that's why they've promised all their future products will no longer not have a dedicated 3.5mm jack.

[wootwootwoot]

@65bits The Sprint version features a 3.5 mm jack.

[shadowmuniplitive]

@65bits I think they said that it comes with the phone so where are you getting the additional cost from?

[bkdog411]

kind of nit picky but good footage

[space917023]

I downloaded it and it worked fine from ISOPlease[.]com ( Remove the [ ] ) I didnt really care for it too much tho.

[LaNadiia]

yoo how u upgrade diz from 6.1 to 6.5?? cant find instructions at all

[65bits]

You can find it at htc [.] com's support pages.

[InfamousPR]

That's ok. I found it on the T-Mobile website. Thanks anyways.

[NNesin]

@65bits how can you check which windows mobile version you have on the HTC touch pro 2? what menu do you go in to,

[TheBoden84]

@NNesin you go into your settings and then click all settings it u have touchflo3d on...and its under the second tab and press the about button...but most touch pro2's have 6.1 pro...go to htc.com and update ur windows to 6.5...but backup ur fone first ccuz u do lose everything

@LaNadiia

English is a great language. You should learn it.

[imM22M22M22]

great video...any word on a flash for the camera on their next version

[Yun502]

I noticed the icons on the touchflo 3d are in black and white. I noticed that in other touchflo 3d with WinMo 6.5 the icons are in color. Is this just a customizable option on the new touchflo 3d?

[65bits]

No, the ones with colour is a new version of touchflo 3D that comes with HTC Sense (this new thing HTC has been pushing with their smartphones). So far I believe only the HTC HD2 and the HTC Touch2 (not very very sure about this) has it.

[Maximus1012]

does this have wi fi ?

[65bits]

yes it does

[Toushirou10th]

will you recommended WM 6.5 for htc touch pro 2? is it faster? or does it makes your phone a bit slower?

[65bits]

I don't have both together to compare them, but I was told that it doesn't improve performance. Not sure if it means it's slower though.

[Toushirou10th]

well I got my answer by upgrading and try out. Must say that I am very satisfied with WM 6.5

Really needed it, made my phone very easy to use and fresh.

[65bits]

I assume your question is if you're able to switch to TouchFlo 3D after you upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5. Yes you can, and we showed it in the video itself at 8:08 the steps that enables TouchFlo 3D back.

[Mrfuggles99]

but mine has window 6.1 how do i get 6.5?

[65bits]

If you want to get 6.5 from 6.1 and you own a HTC TouchPro 2, you can visit htc [.] com [/] sea [/] support [.] aspx if you're a Singaporean. If not, just visit htc [.] com

[Mrfuggles99]

okay thank you

[ChristophKKK]

[korn74]

5 stars guys great review, very nice looking phone, if i was to go back to WM this would be the one i would get.
