Can I use a data plan for dumbphones on an unlocked device?
details
I was browsing AT&T's site earlier and noticed that you can get an unlimited texting, messaging, and data plan for $30/month for a dumbphone. When I continued to process my cart it asked for my device's IMEI number.
Can I just put in a dumbphone's IMEI number and then just use my unlocked smartphone (Nexus S and/or HTC Titan)?
I understand that if you use a locked device with the wrong plan AT&T (or any other carrier) will make sure to catch you about it but I'm not sure about the case...

How can I unlock the HTC Titan without having to contact ATT?
details
So earlier tonight I won an HTC Titan at the Windows Phone Inner Circle Tour. So far I'm loving the phone but, unfortunately, I'm on T-Mobile. Unless I'll be able to unlock the phone easily, I'll just be using this as a nice Zune device.

Do any of y'all know how to unlock this phone without going through ATT?

If I absolutely have to go through ATT, how lenient is ATT with unlocking phones? Do I need to be an ATT customer to unlock this phone?

Is there a way to search my music collection in Mango?
details
One of the rotten consequences of upgrading to WP 7.5 is that the magnifying glass search button has become only a Bing button, instead of the context-sensitive button it used to be.
In the main Music & Videos (Zune) hub, if you pull the "..." up, you can find a "search marketplace" option which will find artists, song names, and albums in the marketplace and will note "in collection" if it is on the device. However, I have some music that is not in Zune's marketplace, at least not with the... Read more →

What's typing accuracy like on the Titan?
details
For my mobile phone needs, in the past I've always had phones with slide-out physical keyboards (having actual space between the keys and the feedback from pressing the buttons meant I was rally fast and really accurate), until the HTC 7 Trophy. I've had an iPod touch since, well, a long long time and have always found typing on it a relative breeze, so thought it was time I moved back into the 'mainstream' mobile world (HTC have been taking the mickey with the Touch Pro2 and 7 Pro). Whilst the... Read more →

Do the dual flashes work with the HTC Flashlight app?
details
I have the 7 Trophy, and the HTC Flashlight app for WP7 works fine on it (however, the highest of the three brightnesses is still lower than if I was recording a video with the flash on :/). I've seen in the reviews for the flashlight app that it doesn't work on the Mozart, presumably due to the flash being xenon. I know the Titan has dual LED flashes, so my question(s) is (are): a) Does the HTC Flashlight app work on it? (presumably) b) If so, does it use both lights? c) If so (or if not), is... Read more →

Switch from iOS to Windows Phone
details
I've been thinking about switching from my iPhone 4 to Windows Phone for a while and I think this might be the phone to finally convince me to make the switch. My biggest concern is the lack of maturity in the app store and lack of vital apps such as Dropbox. Anyone else made the same switch and have some advice as to offer?

Anyone else notice that HTC is recycling their product names with the new Titan?
details
I remember that the 'HTC Titan' had sounded super familiar...and here's why - http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?tit... 'Titan' is a pretty good name, however, so I don't blame them for wanting to use it again...and it's not likely that many people are still actively using a phone from 2007.

New windows phone specs are not impressive - why is that?
details
The specs on these devices are more in-line with products released in 2010. Considering that most new flagship Android phones are dual-core and have 1 GB of RAM, and that the iPhone 5 is likely to be on par with that, it's hard for me to get too excited about these new Windows Phone devices - they seem out of date before they've even arrived. I suppose it's debatable if one truly needs 1GB of RAM on a mobile phone...though I feel that having more is better; I doubt that future versions of any of...

Has Windows Phone had a "webOS" problem?
details
HTC just announced some pretty sweet new phones for the Windows Phone platform. But there still seems to be a lack of quality apps (or even apps in general) for the platform. Is this the same problem webOS was having? It seems like people genuinely love Windows Phone -- when discussing the operating system, people often describe it as people described webOS. It's pleasant to use, looks nice, and does things fairly well. But the hardware and software have been kind of meh. Do you think these new...
