Paul, I'm rather a knob at this stuff but do you get the impression from this build that the GPS will be the HTC version or will a person need to subscribe to the AT&T service (or just use a BT receiver)? Thanks a million for all of the hard work, it's what I look forward to each day!

The GPS is exactly as on the other variants, no subscription required.

You kick ass! The "localization" makes it look mostly like a stock 8525. It's nice to see that the final CPU spec is 400MHz, and multi-core to boot. Can't wait for the Kaiser.

Strangely, many of the 'extra apps' are technically available at the Media Mall, but not for dl to the predecessor-8525. In fact, most of the Media Mall apps are unavailable for the 8525.

I hope websites update by Tilt's release date. Wouldn't mind exploring XM Mobile (or I'll just do DI FM), MobiTV, or getting that new Street Fighter port.

I'm guessing IM is done by SMS? Has the GPRS setting appeared before and how is that different from the HSDPA setting? Having selectable 3G vs EDGE would be great on the battery. I remember there was some app to set it by registry or something.

By GPRS / 3G actually I believe.

That's always been there, for authentication settings, nothing very interesting

You could always do that using the 'Phone' applet in settings, and there are also quick switch apps out there too, to assign it to a key / shortcut.

WOW! Well done Paul, A mega screengrab fest. What version (number) is this, I'm curious how the final version differs from versions appearing elsewhere on the 'net

Interests:The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

I dont have my blackjack here....but I remember there was a reason I uninstalled the IM right away. I believe it is OZ Messenger...I may be getting confused tho. Look for verification

Not for being a b****, but when can you get some pics of the original HTC (it's called un- something, I know..)
I'm not so patient anymore... Those pics would be good for me nerves...

I'm surprised there isn't a GPS menu in settings... i can only see the Quick GPS application in the tools programs folder...

I'm a bit confused about the GPS function on this device. I understand it has an actual GPS and yet there is a link to TeleNav on the device... My question is why would anyone pay for TeleNav if you could install your own GPS software? Is it simply to pay a smaller monthly fee instead of a lump sum to buy your own software? I guess you also get Traffic alerts with TeleNav... I'm new to AT&T (will get them once the Tilt is available) so I'm not very familiar with TeleNav.

Thanks,

Paul,
Would it be possible to get any screen caps of the "Quick GPS" util?

Thanks.

GREAT PICS!!
I noticed Cellular Video and a Backup option. This thing is REALLY making me want one.

Does the CV option utilitize a front side camera with 2-way video or is it that "half-breed" video calling (which doesn't work well at all) thing?

Thaks for the great work!

There is a GPS menu in settings, they've stupidly called it 'External GPS' tho!

Quick GPS is just the GPS ephemeris download app, for quicker time to first fix.

That's a great collection of pictures, and I don't mean to be ungrateful, but would it be possible to post some pics of the dialpad and the unlock pad?
