  • unlock code sa its on a blue numbers

  • I am experiencing some network problems. Sometimes the network just disappears and when I try to call my own number, it says number unreachable. Sometimes, signal bars are low and sometimes they are full even if i am not changing my location at all. Worth noting point is that even if the phone shows full signal, sometimes the caller still gets 'number unreachable'. Kindly help. It's still in warranty. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. plz help me plz..

  • Hii All, Can Anybody help me out... Actually i wanna change the location of the received data via bluetooth to some other location but i m not able to find the settings for that

  • READ THIS BEFORE BUYING TOUCH VIVIA i am using this phone for more than 1 year. Overall, just an average phone. camera is awful, no autofocus, picture quality is very bad, more importantly NO FLASH. don't think of recording video, it is even worst. windows OS is quick as compared to symbian but not perfect. music quality is good but the package contains NO HEADPHONES. Only good thing is net surfing, wi-fi is excellent, but if you are in india you have to set it manually for GPRS as your service provider will not be able to send settings on this phone plus NO 3G!! battery life is okay as compared to other touch screen phones. screen touch sensivity is okay but not possible to use it without stylus. stylus of cheap quality, easily breakable & may get lost also. if you want to buy it for business use it is good otherwise not good value for money. when i bought it, the inbuilt Opera browser was not working, have to hard reset it for browsing. my phone got software problems 5 to 6 times have to hard reset it everytime. got problem with charger after 8 months.I have to fix the stylus using feviquick 2 time as advised by service centre guy;-)!!now the inbuilt speaker is not working, have to make call through loudspeakers as No Headphones!! service support is limited not available in mid size cities of india. In all, there are lots of good touch screen mobiles available in the market specially samsung phones. so, avoid it if you don't have any business use. my rating 2 out of 5 :-(

  • After using Touch Viva for about a year or so, I must say i`m a bit disappointed by it.The phone keeps lagging and sometimes people cannot call me, or if i try to call them, after dialing the number it disconnects.It does not happen often, but it shouldn`t happen at all. Sometimes during a call the wireless is activated by itself.The processor is a bit slow and the camera is a fail. I think it`s time to get a new phone with integrated GPS and this time maybe i`ll give Android a try.

  • can anyone pls pls tell me how to change from phone memory to storage card..i keep getting these annoying msgs asking me to delete files or shift to storage mem..i tried everything...how the hell do i do it..

  • How can i make the home screen look like diamond 2?

  • I used it now and sometimes it crash,hang...but smooth touch,good battery & even u can surf the internet for 1-3 hours...cool...

  • Hey guys, i know about this phn. It's one of the good phone by minimum price. But, prblm is no radio it has. So what, Viva is great.

  • I used for a few days and almost crash it to the wall!! 3 of them., i think Windows Mobile is the problem, lag, crashed, error, etc, very bad experience. Maybe, if has a large procesor will works. thank for your att bye.

  • This is a GEM - U will NOT REGRET I bought this 2 months back in Chennai-Univercel around Rs.9400. Headset INCLUDED. Pros: 1. Smooth touch 2. Good battery - Everyday I can browse for 4 hrs with 1-2 hrs call 3. Internet connectivity is one of the best at this range of cost. 4. Unlimited SMS storage - Now I have more than 5000 msg. 5. Comes with Solitaire game :) 6. MS Office works excellently. 7. Didn't encounter any problems in Wi-Fi. 8. Gtalk via Nimbuzz is working fine in Wi-Fi. 9. AutoCorrect option in Photos is working amazingly. Cons: 1. Sound is in good quality at only low volumes. 2. That SMS dictinory sucks. One of the best idiotic word generator that I have ever encountered. 3. No "Group Messaging" option. 4. U can't see images in album mode, once u move those files from the default folder. Very very annoying. Final Word: Do remember, this phone has "NO 3G". After seeing the look of the phone and the brand "HTC", i just take 3G for granted. But it's not so.

  • i agree with u .. good phone to use.. lock ur mobile..

  • No dear....i am using this phone from last 1 year...it's working fine. Use covers n lock ur pad....u'll never face any problem. Thanks

  • this is one of the dirtest ph i ever seen, i would inform all the peopls who are interested to buy this phone not to buy, it give too much headache to use this phone, without any thing it will call if you keep it in packet it will dail. its give lot of trouble to use it, i am having this phone wnat to sell only 1 usd. pls do go for it.

  • Yes this phone supports windows mobile 6.5 and it even supports windows mobile 6.5.3 which is the latest, iam running it on my device. If you want to upgrade to windows mobile 6.5 or 6.5.3 you can visit www.xda-developers.com or www.techz.in for custom roms.

  • Dude windows mobile is famous for multitasking and what you can do with this mob u cant do with nokia, in this mob you can change the whole operating system.

  • Yes this phone supports voip

  • I bought the device one week back, I think its a great device, it runs pocket PC, Battery backup is Moderate, UI is not very slow nor very fast... its balanced, Camera is ok 2MP,no autofocus, no flash, no 3.5mm audio jack,Video is bad, love the size. Its a basic pocket PC phone, good for business users, and not very good for Multimedia freaks.

  • Its too costly.. Moreover there is no FM.. we can by nokia 6303 clasik when compared 2 this

  • it is: hkey_local_machine\system\gdi\rotation\

  • Yes you can rotate the screen. Look for a program called SKtools or Resco Media Suite. With any of them you can change the registry options within your phone. You want to change this option in particular: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation\&qu­ot; and set it to 1. You can find it by doing a search. Then go to buttons under configuration ans set button 1 to rotate screen. That's it. By keeping button 1 pressed for a couple of seconds the screen will rotate.

  • Speaker volume is too low......

  • This Phone is with Headset... might be you buy the used one.

  • Can u rotate the Screen of this phone, like we do in HTC Touch. As i am unable to find any option in HTC TOUCH VIVa. Need Suggestion guys ???

  • to magma : you can find many applications for this device at www.ppcwarez.org under windows mobile and softwares. also you could try www.xda-developers.com in which you can flash it with cooked ROMs

  • why you're thinking as you're always covered by wifi signal??? if you're stick around of your home or office, then what is the meaning of mobile???

  • hard to find software??? There's a ton of softwares on the internet.

  • to rex: dear mr. common sense, if you have wifi on board, who needs to waste money on the slow and useless g.p.r.s when you can use the fast useful wifi for free !!

  • skype no longer supports windows mobile 5.0-6.6 although software can be aquired elseware. will works with fring

  • can anyone verify if this phone is compatible with fring/skype or this phone has voip features?

  • Yes guys, i bought this phone at Univercell, Chennai. It comes with a headset.

  • to magma : you can find many applications for this device at www.ppcwarez.org under windows mobile and softwares. also you could try www.xda-developers.com in which you can flash it with cooked ROMs

  • i think this phone is wonderful it has a beautiful system but it's hard to find softwares

  • hey guys im thinking to buy dis..ive had e63 and nokia 7610 and few sony erricons and motorolas and now samsung corby and i like experiencing new mobiles and laptops..so shuld i buy dis mobile? O.o i was thinking to buy this and experience HTC and windows litle..and after win 7 mobile edition is released buying a gud one and use it...

  • I think ur mistaken my bought this phone last month n got a headphone which really rocks... u cant say this phone is not made for music

  • everyone plz read: this phone IS NOT made for music. so no headset inside the package. you can buy accessories in the stores. it has powerfull headsets you never experinced. theyr a bit expensive thoght. it has a nice equlizer having more option than the walkman sonyericcson. it is a bit slow when mulititasking. so take care. in the end its a masterpiece in compare to it's price.

  • I've had this phone for a while and looking back I think I made a good purchase. It has lots of great features. It's easy to use. It's great as an mp3 player but the lack of a 3.5mm jack makes it tough finding replacement earphones for it.

The WiFi works fantastic however I have yet to discover the G service which I am waiting for the info to activate it.

  • hTC is a taiwanese brand. As long as it is a hTC-branded device, it is safe to say that it is not a clone or a rip-off!!! But if u see hKC, instead of hTC, then it's a chinese made rip-off one!

  • chill dude, this is not an english class :p

  • Hi Guys, advice me! I want to install card slot to my HTC viva phone, upto how many GB memory card I can use in this model (device should not hang up).

  • "1. The Processor Speed is kind of slow. it sometimes take quite sometime to respond" -- Speed itself can NEVER be slow or fast!! It's either at HIGH speed or LOW speed! Bear that in your mind! The correct saying is: "Procesor is kind of slow" or "Processor speed is low"! 2. On"e of the problems i have been having right from the beginning is the Touchflo. When i get SMS messages from someone, the screen becomes active and it automatically goes on to place calls or open other applications(when i keep the mobile in my pocket). Does no one ever come across this problem?. " -- TO AVOID THIS, kindly install the "S2U2" screen-locking software. Google it! There's no need to disable the very useful and well-defined Touchflo 2D!

  • Hi All, I have owned this Viva for about 2 months. These are my comments. 1. The Processor Speed is kind of slow. it sometimes take quite sometime to respond 2. One of the problems i have been having right from the beginning is the Touchflo. When i get SMS messages from someone, the screen becomes active and it automatically goes on to place calls or open other applications(when i keep the mobile in my pocket). Does no one ever come across this problem?. One of the solution to this problem is i can disable the touchflo from Today's screen and keep it locked. But it does not look cool that way. I am still living with it.

  • Attention PEOPLE, writing in poor english may be considered as an insult to others! So check ur text first, before posting it!

  • If you want to buy HTC Viva make sure that all the features are enough for you. And, don't try to install other applications like gmail, GPS, etc. as the capacity is limited. Try to review the features of HTC touch 3G and find out if this really you want.

However, you can access Gmail on the go by using the Web version." Can you help me out this issue.

  • Hi thanks for the reply. But I am not talking about WiFi network. I am talking about GSM network signals i.e. my operator (Vodafone) network signals. Thanks.

  • Hi! Good day to all. I just wanna know if this phone can be upgraded to Winmo 6.5? Or is there an available update to this particularly 6.5? Thanks in advance...

  • Take a look at touch diamond or touch 3G , dont buy viva as processor is only 200 Mhz and there's no 3G. Diamond is best or else touch 3G, also HTC Tattoo is a great option

  • no all s/w do not work as on the computer,depends on the s/w of the htc coz only it is supported by htc s/w and no third party s/w.

  • I share the same opinions with you! :)

  • HTC Touch Viva can not be considered as a business smartphone! Due to its inconveniently small display size and the lack of a physical QWERTY keyboard! That's it!

  • In terms of OS, Touch Viva is much better than 5800! It's more flexible and expendable! But if you're a Symbian-lover and don't prefer Winmo OS then sure 5800 would be your no.1! To come out of a "smartphone"-dilemma, you must look at the OS the devices are running. Because that will be the deciding factor!

  • Hi, I am an owner of a HTC Touch Viva! I have it for almost 3 1/2 months and I can say up till now it's doing very fine! The only "problem" I faced when using this phone is the virtual keyboard! Like all other touchscreen phones, typing will be a "pain in the @ss" when the screen itself is smaller than 3.4". So if you have tiny fingers, then this will not be an issue!

  • m tinking 2 buy this phone r there any problems , does all softwares work just like computers? please help me.

  • Anybody tell me Nokia 5800 & HTC VIVA which i sthe best? Because i am double minded. which one i purchase?

  • i get the following message when i download gmail application... "Sorry, the Gmail application does not work on your TouchFLO. However, you can access Gmail on the go by using the web Version" Pls. let me know how you downlaod and install gmail application on your device.........

  • I try it but jar file are not downlaod option are given to me on my device..

  • Hello Everyone, is this upgrade to windows 6.5?

  • Hi There, I bought this cell for Rs. 11,000 (Delhi-India) a month back. Touch Screen - Is best looking at the price, real smooth. Pixel - It is somewhere between good and average But if you compare it with Nokia 5800 - TFT resistive touchscreen, 16 Million colors 360 x 640 pixels, 3.2 inches) and Viva TFT resistive touchscreen, 65 Thousand colors 240 x 320 pixels, 2.8 inches) THEN NOKIA wins remarkably Sound Quality(Music) - According to me it is very poor, it's player gives sound of a mono player. I'm feeling it bad as my other cell is Nokia N81, i don expect same quality but other business phones like E71 give much better sound quality. Camera - Viva has 2 MP, 1600x1200 pixels and no secondary camera in front and Nokia 5800 3.15 MP, 2048x1536 pixels, Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus, LED flash with secondary camera. Well, secondary camera is usually used only for video calls made with 3G Viva is NOT 3G BUT Nokia 5800 is 3G and i would prefer to buy a 3G phone looking at perspective that it'll be in competition by mid next year. NET: Runs smooth just as same on any other cell. Now, i wish i could sell my HTC for Nokia 5800 as it's a fun phone, my brother wanted HTC, just like that, so i bought it for him. Now even he also don like it much. What is your requirement? a business phone or a fun phone. My Verdict : Nokia 5800 I hope it'll be helpful for any other query you can mail me at [email protected] as i don visit this site frequently, only when i need some info. It's a great website by the way.

  • Hello all I purchased this phone last week. I live in India and am using an unlocked version with Vodafone connection. All in all, it's a great phone. However I am experiencing some network problems. Sometimes the network just disappears and when I try to call my own number, it says number unreachable. Sometimes, signal bars are low and sometimes they are full even if i am not changing my location at all. Worth noting point is that even if the phone shows full signal, sometimes the caller still gets 'number unreachable'. Kindly help. It's still in warranty. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Battery back up is 2-3days in a normal conditions. I got the back up for 1.5days when i used to talk for a longer hours.

  • It is a bar type phone. No sliding keypad.

  • What is the expandable memory capacity for Touch Viva T2223. Can i use a 2GB microSd card? I was told to use only 1GB Card by the retailer.

  • Typing SMS in this phone is pretty comfortable. It allows you to type in QWERTY Keypad and in normal phone keypad. Switching to Caps, Numbers is also given with 1 touch. It also shows the complete word when you type the first few characters.I am using it for a week and am comfortable with message typing. I dont even use the stylus to type messages, unless it is a very big sms.Overall typing in this phone is comfortable.

  • is this bar type or sliding type

  • You can simply go to google site www.google.com (from you phone), and from there select option "More", and once you are on the next page, you can select application "Gmail" and install it on your cell. Try this way.

  • hello htc users, please confirm me the battery back up of this set. I intend to buy it soon, please help me in this regard

  • Good mobile to buy for low price and having good features... It contains all the specs which most of the corporate guys required mail, sms, word, excel , ppt, pdf, winzif etc.. Buy screen protector from outside having 50-100 bucks price for screen protection.

  • thanks

  • @ Jatin Hey thanx a ton, for all that patient responses. The phone is doing great. The screen guard supplied is not very good - leaves bubbles. A separate purchase would be better. I am told that it is better not to load any additional programs. Your comments? Also, I heard that HTC service is lousy. Do you have anything to say regarding that? Cheers

  • i am planning to buy one. is the microsoft office preinstalled or its supposed to be bought seperately

  • very gr8 fone for a low-price ppc..... gonna buy it soon.....

  • Actually HTC does not have Windows media player unlike other HTC phones so you cannot play wmv files on your cell phone - regards

  • @Ganesh 1. There is only a screen protector [thin plastic film] which comes along with the box. Is it possible to add a screen guard [like in the HTC Touch]? Is it better to buy it at HTC service centre or the open market? Any brand suggestions? Answer: Screen Protector Plastic is sufficient. Replace the plastic when it worn outs. Usually will last atlease a year 2. There is no pouch. Would you recommend buying an original HTC pouch or any other brand [what is your recommendation then]? Answer: Any Pouch will Do. 3. What programs would you recommend loading on the phone? Answer: When u need some feature... google for such software. U can get Google Software, Pointui, Skyfire, Tetris Game, Othello Game etc 4. Any other original accessories you would recommend? Answer: NO 5. what bluetooth headset [mono] would you recommend for the Viva? Answer: The one you can afford. Usually wired one with mobile is sufficient unless u want to go for snoop (dual earbud bluetooth)

  • Hi all, I dowloaded on WMV file. But not able to play. Any solutions?

  • Hi! I just bought the Viva yesterday. I need your inputs for the following queries - 1. There is only a screen protector [thin plastic film] which comes along with the box. Is it possible to add a screen guard [like in the HTC Touch]? Is it better to buy it at HTC service centre or the open market? Any brand suggestions? 2. There is no pouch.

I had sent to service centre to repair speaker but the issue happen again. Anyone have any idea to solve this?

  • I have one of these. Great phone for the price. If it does get laggy, turn it off and then back on...easy. Less than 30 seconds. Processor was sitting on 56%...rebooted phone, back to 36%. Battery life is excellent, 2 days of heavy use including MP3 and it's only down to half way on the battery. Secret is to turn off the Wi-Fi when you're not using it, that drains the battery.

  • guys never put more than 4gb card on ur device...2gb is the best. while more than 2gb ur device will struggle. 8gb is the final limit. 16gb will mishandle the memory only 256mb ram devices can handle 8 or 16 gb... so plz dobt go more than 4. and moreover more ram is consumed when more than 2 gb is added. more ram less battery life.....so 2 gb is the best.....

  • why dont this phone hav fm radio.is there any other way i mean is it possible to download fm radio software for this phone if it is tell me hw i can get it.

  • Excellent device. I bought my Viva last month and it's an excellent phone. Excellent signal and features. The camera is good but don't use for moving images.

  • if you wanna type emails, then instead of a touchscreen mobile go for a QWERTY keypad based handset. typing will be much much easier. typing sms and emails on a touchscreen is never easier.there is nothing wrong with htc viva otherwise. in your budget- nokia E63 is available[ having QWERTY keypad and very good battery backup]. rest is upto you....

  • Hi All, I am gonna buy it this month . Little over budget for me but I am impressed by the features and touch screen.. Any last minute comments or any recomondations would be a great help . i mainly use my mobile for chatt and email with business colleague. so its going to be business use majorly. hope its a right decision. Thanks in Advance

  • Enjoying the amazing Touch Viva. Can someone pls tell me as to how i could use it as a modem for an HP 6730b for internet connection.

  • Wonderful post, seems to be useful, i haven't tried it out yet. It looks exhaustive, though. Just out of caution, may i ask, are there absolutely no costs attached? Would appreciate a quick response.

  • I really enjoy my touch viva. however, the only issue that baffles my mind is that whenever the phone is on sleep mode and somebody calls or sends message to me, the call rings to the hearing of the caller but my phone doesn't ring; the sender receives successful delivery message but I don't receive the message. I went through the manual thinking I need to adjust some settings but no success. Can anybody assist to fix this issue? Thanks.

  • can any one provide me with some antivirus for my HTC Viva...Its urgent... send me a link if u can for any full version antivirus..

  • After googling and fighting with Airtel, I managed to get the correct settings and I am able to run Airtel Live as well access most of the websites on standard HTTP protocol (SSL is not supported). Google Maps also works for me. On Windows Mobile 6.x, the steps to configure are as follows: 1. Activate Airtel Live by sending the following SMS to 121: MASALA ACTIVE. 2. The service takes atleast 3-4 hours to get active. Restart the phone and resume configuring. 3. Tap Start -> Settings. 4. Select Connections Tab and tap Connections. 5. Select Advanced Tab, tap Select Networks button to bring up Network Management. 6. Under "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:" drop down, tap the New button. 7. In the General Tab, type the name of the settings as Airtel Live 8. Select Modem tab, tap New... 9. Type the name of connection as Airtel Live, select the modem as Cellular Line (GPRS) and tap Next. 10. Type Access Point Name as airtelfun.com and tap next. 11. Leave username, password and domain blank and tap finish. 12. Select Proxy Settings tab. Tap "This network connects to the Internet". This should enable the next check box option. 13. Tap "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet". 14. Type the proxy server as: 100.1.200.99 and then tap Advanced... 15. Tap HTTP, leave the server as 100.1.200.99 and change the port to 8080 16. Similarly tap WAP, Secure WAP and Socks, type the server as 100.1.200.99 but leave the port to defaults. These are optional settings. 17. Tap OK to close the Advanced proxy setup screen. 18. Tap OK to close the New connection screen. 19. The network management screen should now list the new connection you have created in the drop-down. Tap OK to close this screen 20. Tap OK to close the connection screen. Now you are ready to fire your favourite browser. I have tested this on PIE as well as Opera 9.5 and it works for me. If PIE reports "Request not authorized by the WAP Gateway", you will need to change the user-agent to anything you can think of using "Advanced Config" tool (thanks to dsixda for suggesting this). I had set it to HTCP3452_Mozilla/4.0 under Advanced Config -> Internet Explorer -> User Agent Custom Base. I think Airtel has intentionally blocked Mozilla/4.0 user-agent on WM phones. It may be that they cannot restrict Windows Mobile based phones from accessing websites on standard HTTP. On other phones I had tried, I could not get other sites to work with the same settings. Enjoy Airtel Live for free.

  • does this phone have the capacity to run well with a 4GB card or should i go for the 2Gb

  • hey can i use a 4GB CARD on this phone will it not make it slow do you suggest a smaller one

  • yea ic ... but i used some programs the % increases... and when i closed the program, the % is decreasing but not to the initial % and u know when u charge ur phone, the yellow light turns on... It does that for my phone though im not charging it ( but when i check my battery, the phone says it charging though its not plugged to any outlet nor cpu) is my phone is kinda defective or any way to solve that problem ? thx

  • No the RESET button is just same like Computers restart button.....it restarts the Mobile

  • Also I didn't get about the yellow light thing??

  • Hey No I guess the Program memory you are looking at is the % of memory being utilized by ur system at that point in time. So suppose u have 23 applications running in the task manager than the memory utilized will be more else it will be less.

  • Do a Soft reset with pressing the reset button

  • Hey John, Both are good phones... Nokia has 3G i.e if you extensively use the internet on phone... also the processor is a tad faster than Viva.. But Viva has Windows 6.1 So I would suggest you decide whether u want a Windows based cell or a Symbian and than consider other factors.. As far as price is concerned Viva is around 10-20 Euros costlier than Nokia... Hope this makes sense..

  • yes it supports.I'm using 4gb card, workinng fantastic. regards, Nik.

  • its not so nice but has it got the weather?

  • hi..planning on getting this touch viva.. Just wanted to know whether it supports Memory card micro sd.. Could anyone tell me..appresciate it a lot Thanks.. Rob :)

  • thanks for the reply Preyas.. yea i did restart it and it went back to 38 % couple days ago.. But when i check again, its gone up back to 44 %..what do u think about that ? and the yellow light that usually blinks turns on 24/7.. The problem solved when i restart the phone.. But is there any logical explanation to that ?? thanks alot !

  • No My Friend... its NOT needed...

  • HEy No, the Program Mem will not increase unless some data is installed or u may have had copied some files/sms or anything of that sort... If still this keeps on increasing than try resetting ur device..

  • Hi Guys, Good day, I just need help on comparing the Viva and the Nokia E63. Its hard to choose. Comparison - same can browse the internet(wifi,gprs) - battery life ok Nokia - got a full qwerty keyboard - memory up to 8gb - cheaper Viva - Screen sensitive keyboard - memory up to 16gb - expensive badly need advice. thanks in advance. [email protected]

  • guys should we restart or turn off this cell phone every couples day or what ?

  • hi.. how come the percentage of program memory in use on my viva keeps getting higher although i dont open any program ? it was 45% yesterday and its 54% today.. any help / explanation on how to reduce that ? thanks

  • Hey I don't think it has anything o do with a 'Weak Signal'. But ur problem is an interesting one. There are 2 options for you: 1. Goto Start-> Settings-> Connections-> Click on Connections Icon 2. Now Click on 'Advanced' tab 3. Now Click on 'Select Networks' Buton on the upper right hand side 4. Now there should be 2 dropdowns available 5. In both the dropdowns Select option 'My Work Network' This steps will disable ur GPRS as it will try to connect ot the 'My work n/w' Hope this works for u...

  • Thanks bro for the reply... I connected thru Wi-fi,and I was surfing thru wi-fi,but after few minutes when clicked for some link it said (connecting to GPRS.when checked on that bar it showed WAP connected and WI-FI was disconnected) May be when the signal gets weak, it tries to connect through GPRS/WAP. Pls tell me how to disable GPRS WAP manually, I dont how to do that. Regards, Nik.

  • Hey Hi Nik, There is no such compulsion to use Edge/GPRS while connected using Wi-fi. I personally am not able to understand as to why ur GPRS is getting active while connecting to a Wifi n/w Try manually disabling the GPRS after connecting to a Wifi n/w 1.Go to Comm. Manager and Enable ur Wifi 2. Now according to you if GPRS is getting activated than the 'Data Connection' option will be displayed as 'ON' 3. Now after your Wifi is connected try tapping on the 'DataConnection' and ur GPRS should be turned off 4. Now your Wifi should still remain active. Check the Wifi it should be seen as 'ON' Try these steps and tell me if its working Good or now..

  • Hello ! Can you pls tell me, how to disable EDGE/GPRS/WAP if i dont want to use any of this. As I want to use only Wi-fi feature, but when I do that EDGE/GPRS/WAP all these gets live. Or is it like, to use Wi-fi the device uses the EDGE/GPRS/WAP features? Regards, Nik.

  • Thanks for the explanation. Was really helpfull.

  • Thanks for the info Abbas, I appreciate it.

  • Hello Guys ! Can someone pls tell me, how to disable EDGE/GPRS/WAP if i dont want to use any of this. As I want to use only Wi-fi feature, but when I do that EDGE/GPRS/WAP all these gets live. Regards, Nik.

  • hey unknown finally YES ! u can use yr fingers to type sms's without the need of the pathetic stylus! thats the reason i went & grabbed a viva 4 myself unlike the previous models diamond,cruise etc.

  • Need tips to use the Wi-Fi ! When I'm trying to connect through Wi-Fi, internet is connected but at the same time,pop up shows GPRS trying to connect, EDGE symbol also appears. How do I get online using just the Wi-Fi without the EDGE and GPRS.since GPRS and EDGE might be chargable. Kindly help.

  • Guys! Gud day! Based on you guys feedback, felt gud about the Device and have finally bought it and I'm on to get used to all the features.

  • Hey Hi There.... To answer ur question... Yes most of the stuff on the handset can be accessed using the thumb itself.. but some features require stylus (for eg. scrolling a page) i.e. if u don't use the 4-way Navigation key... Else it sounds good to me...:)

  • bob it takes 3 hours to charge once finished fully

  • Hello Dear Users Can this phone be used by finger only like I-Phone? Or some parts requires stylus (Pen)! Thank you in advance for your reply.

  • Hi to every one. could you tell me how long it takes to be fully charged.I asked it from a guy who have a diamond, he said it takes 40min. Is it true about viva?!! best regards H.N

  • Hi Snehal, Thanks for the feedback, I was able to receive pics,tones from other cells but not able to send to others. It does not give an option send via bluetooth. Tried the option of beam but it does not help. Can you explain how should i transfere pic to other cells.

  • this phone has 65k colours.... viva has 256k colours... is the diff a big deal or what.....?? is the diff b/w these 2 types of screens too big....??

  • yes, this one is a better option....

  • Hey...u r right, it is a bit diffrent process than what we normaly use for other bluetooth enabled phones. The correct way of transfering or receiving files would be: going to the setting option which is on the bottom doc. Select communications, click on bluetooth & wait till it turns on. Once it is done, click on the settings at the extreme bottom left of the same window. Then go to mode and make sure that both the check boxes are ticked. "Turn on Bluetooth" & "Make this device visible to other devices". This will make sure u can see other bluetooth devices and ur device is displayed to other. While transfering files, it will also ask for passkey on ur device and the one connected with yours. Make sure both of u enter the same no in passkey. I gues this will help you?

  • Help! Would like to know how to transfere pic, videos to other mobile phones, have tried the beaming option but does not help.(guess i am missing some process)...can anybody help with the way it is done, have tried the procedure mentioned in the manual but is of no help....

  • سلام چند وقته این گوشی رو خریدید؟­; باتریش چطوره؟

  • Hey Yes u can watch movies.. and I use DIVX player for the same... Don't forget to convert it into a Mobile format using DIVX converter and ur videos will play smooth..

  • Very poor... No 3G, 2 Mpix camera... SLOOOOW!....

  • can u see whole movies in this.......?? and how is the quality of the videos.......?? is it smooth like iphone.....?? which are ate video formats supported by this.....??

  • Touch vs Viva Viva - Quadband, Battery life Touch - Colours

  • @Annonymous: Yes it does play DIVX files but do convert it using a DIVX converter to play in Mobile-DIVX format else the response will not be as smooth.. @Adyash: Yes You can customize your home screen by having ur own Wallpapers

  • can u put images/pictures as wallpapers at the home screen....?? can the home screen be edited.....??

  • does this phoe supports xvid and divx files.....??

  • i think surfing the WEB would be good especially for me because i am a spired (man) and i do create webs!

  • does this phoe supports xvid and divx files.....?? which video formats are supported by this phone....?? how is the playback as compared to the cookie...??

  • Hey Dude, Regarding the use of Stylus depends absolutely upon an individual. I just bought this phone and this is my first touch screen but I can type messages without Stylus... though my friend requires a stylus to type a message with the same handset. But I find the onscreen qwetr keyboard big enough for finger typing. You can refer some snaps of the handset before buying... that may help u!

  • hey guys please tell me how to change the themes on this phone becase i tried changing them but the background remains the same(home screen) only the start bar colour changes i tried this with all the themes i got i even tried to restart the phone

  • can anybody confirm that there are no settings/options to use the viva phone's screen in landscape/horizontal position. Secondly, would you say that it is better to get a viva rather than the touch 3452 which too is now coming with Win 6.1 and is a sturdier and more modern design to my eyes. I am stuck between choosing viva or 3452 and on another note, viva is cheaper too, though when you consider the bundled accessories with 3452, the equipment cost of 3452 seems lower. Looking forward to your inputs

  • is this phone worth buying? can u use a 8GB with this phone? is the talk quality good? is the audio quality good? which one should i get:LG Cookie & this touch viva

  • guys need help SOS ! Does the Viva or Touch 3G require the stylus to type sms or is the keypad big enough to type with your fingers as in the apple, Omnia and the Nokia 5800 i love these HTC's but the only headache every time u need to type something u need to use the blooming stylus or the hand recognition which is a bit of pain ! Please let me know if its the same story in VIVA & 3G too.

  • u r right buddy

  • Hey Gotcha guys... I had clicked the option of 'Turn off Device in 1 min' so Active sync stopped detecting it after a min :)

  • Hey people I am facing this one more issue. When I connect my handset with my PC the Microsoft Active Sync is activated but after about a minute it again gets disconnectedon its own. I ried connecting my phone as a Hard drive and that works good. If Anybody knows about this issue than please help..

  • Got my Viva last week. It's a good phone. I had some problems with reception on my original htc touch. The thing I don't like about this one is the recessed screen. I don't know why they did that to this phone. It makes it difficult to use you fingers on the touch screen at the edges.

  • Hey did you try playing the song using Windows Media player? And also try playing it using Third Party applications u can easily get it here: and if it plays in all these applications han ur audio palyer is at fault and most probably you will have to get it re-installed

  • I want to buy this model ..any comments from the viewers...!!!!

There is how, The sms are shown in form of conversations when you open a conversation you the four way key .. press up and you will be able to select individual messages and this way you can forward / delete the individual sms/mms ....

  • My viva's battery only lasts for a day, a day and a half maximum. If i charge it during evening, spoke for 10 minutes, in the morning, after a hole night when the phone was in standby, not used, screen closed, one third of the battery is gone. Is this normal? Cause i've been reading here that it lasts for 4 days. I wish it would last for two days, at least...

  • Thanks Lorenzo, for that valuable information....

  • hi well i am thinking of buying this phone... all i want to know is whether the phone is working properly or is it having any problems like the htc touch used to??????

  • Hello Guys, Your Comments are really helpful! Someone Please give me information,I've decided to buy one. Touch Viva doesnt comes with GPS inbuilt, so can we use it with external GPS device (e.g. Bluetooth connectivity devices)? And how about the Maps for the GPS to work? Since, for Nokia mobiles,maps are available on their websites. Regards, Nik

  • hi sumit! No memory card in the box and the headset costs 22.90 euro(plus shipping) if you want to buy it from the HTC web site , but I found it in a mobile store in Italy at 19 euro though... so Htc is more expensive on line :-) Viva works ok with any memory card (2,4,8 Giga), doesen't affects his performance, at the contrary, if you store everything in the external memory and leave the internal one free (that is 80 MB) you should have faster response of the functions.

  • hi lorenzo, does it come with a mem card? and for how much i can get an earphone?

  • Guys, After reading reviews I have come to conclusion: 1. Battery good 2. Sound Good 3. No fm 4. No Headset 5. Wifi, Quadband. just 2 doubts...if any one can help? does it come with a mem card and whow can i get a headset and how much more I need to pay in India to get it?????????????????????

  • HI DK, I need to ask you something, after when you bought VIVA, does it come with a headset? How is the battery life? Camera and sound quality, it would really be kind of you, as I am also planning to buy one?

  • Dear all Users, I am quiet confused with this mobile and HTC Touch Viva. I've planed to buy any of them on next week. when asus p320 was released it was so inspired me, coz it has WM 6.1, Asus Today, Wi-Fi and GPS, even its price too. but recently i felt in love with HTC Touch Viva. it same as asus p320 with little different in ram. the touch flo is so much impressed me.but the price is little bit more than asus p320. and doesn,t has gps. help me to buy the best one. Asus P320 Vs HTC Touch Viva RAM: 64MB vs 128 MB Pro: Same on both GPS: yes Vs No Features: Asus Today Vs HTC Touch Viva cost: 12900 Vs 15400 HTC is so friendly with ur fingers, but asus is stylus oriented. its battery and reception are bad i heard from reviews.

  • can somebody please tell me the internal storage memory size of this phone without the memory card in it thanks

  • Hi! The 201Mhz processor is ok for running all the apps you want, and the 128Ram helps in having good results, but, you will notice a small delay in the functions when you run in the same time "heavy" apps like WMP, ADOBE, music player, office.. Ofcourse, a 500+ processor will speed up the device, but it will also make you pay dubble the price :) Like i said before, VIVA is the best deal on the market if you want to spend less and have a good PPC in you hands.

  • What is the fps for the video camera?

  • Hey Guys, Comments are really helpful! Touch Viva doesnt comes with GPS inbuilt, so can we use it with external GPS device (e.g. Bluetooth connectivity devices). And how about the Maps for the GPS to work? For Nokia mobiles,maps are available on their websites.

  • plz tell me about camera

  • سلام بر وبچ اين گوشي رو اگه انتخاب كرديد بدونيد پشيمون نخواهيد­; شد پس درنگ نكنيد.............­...

  • I am satisfied with this mobile and confirm to purchase it. where can i buy the ear phone. is it avail at THE MOBILE STORE. If yes how much rupees?

  • how about the 201 MHz processor how would you rate it? what is the capacity of this compare to 400+ or 500+ processor, is it okey? planning to buy one. Your comment will help me if i will push thru in buying. thanks.

  • Touch 3G is more powerful compared to Viva. If you use 4G storage card for the Viva, the phone operation is terribly slow. 2 G is just fine. Viva uses Texas Instrument (TI) processor of mere 201 Hz. The Qualcomm processor is much better which is used in Touch 3G.

  • hey can you please tell me how much internal memory does the phone have and can it easily support a 4gb card thanks

  • what is the difference between the touch 3g and viva....just the 3g? and price/ how much is the price difference in rs. or dollars?

  • what is the difference between the touch 3g and viva....just the 3g? and price/ how much is the price difference in rs. or dollars?

  • I bought the Touch Viva on Dec 31, 2008. If you are a new driver on the road,get a small car before you drive a luxury one. If you bumped into a ditch the cost to repair the damage is small. Same things in mobile world. Get the Touch Viva before you buy the Touch 3G! Touch Viva is a basic yet an easy to manoeuvre. The touch screen and the interface are excellent. To use your thumb or finger may be too troublesome since some icons are small. The use of the stylus is recommended. At times, you may get stuck and hanged. To solve this problem you just need to use a reset button under the hood. Overall, to me the Viva is excellent for beginners. I did like to rate it as 9/10.

  • Answer to both questions is Yes.

  • LOL it's deginitely a "take-it-back-to-the-shop" issue... Mine didn't do the same at all

  • Viva vs. Touch vs. Touch 3G Which one should I get? the guy can get me any one of these within an hour.. he was telling me there is not a much difference between the three.. someone tell me soon.. i need to order it tomorrow

  • dont buy tp1 plus is not work with htc viva buy noika or moto headphone i garenty it work

  • It's an awesome phone. Although I wanted to buy the HTC Touch (the one with the colorful case), no regrets at all when I purchased this. Still need to do some tickering (I'm still learning to use it) but I love it......It's compact,easy to use & the touch screen is great....

  • hi guyz i m DK bot this fone on 30th Dec08 from The Mobile Store in 15479/- rs in Delhi )) well this fone rocks n supa dupa sexy )) wrks fantastic )) itz looks n screen is much beta then Touch ..allova its New launched in sep08 )) it givs u rich class looks wen u carrin it in ya hand )) ...v easy n comfy in use )) .. BETTER THEN TOUCH.. now i m lookin 4 some good sites 4 WM6.1 )) Thnakz aLL ))

  • Hi,Which i a better phone touch(revived) or viva, I am getting confused

  • Follow this link and you'll find you answer

  • The Sound quality of the phone is good..... The Speaker is awesome where one can hear it very loudly and clearly......... Overall the touch is awesome

  • This is a very nice phone, the best of his category if you look the price, plus the touch flo is a remarkable software, even if on this model is a 2D one. the 2G connection is not so bad as I thought, EDGE lets you navigate quite fast (compare with 3G nokia n73 for example, the HTC is much faster..), but if you have WI-FI access problem is solved. The sound and speakers quality is a very good one,(and yes, you can hear it in noisy places! :). For music playing, with a HTC original headset (not included in the box though!!) you have a very good quality of sound, plus the "buster audio" software (included) offers you a real hi-fi device. Fast response of the 6.1 WM, nice design, good battery life (2-3 days using internet,music player,30-40 min of calls/day,sms... ) No complain so far, is a good deal for those who can not afford the HTC HD :)

  • Hi, i have planned to buy this mobile. this mobile doesnt have headphone in the box? what kind of ear peace could i buy. help me

  • I bought this devise last month. All the features are fine except messaging can anyone tell me the solution of my problem. Everytime when I want to forward any particular SMS to anyone it will also forward all the previous messages i have received or sent to that person. Is this some problem or I am missing something?

  • hey since your already using the phone can you please tell me is the keyboard of this phone good enough for messaging or is it a problem to message using just your fingers thanks a lot

  • Just got the touch viva a couple of weeks ago - having problems with messaging and crashing on me - after about a few days use the message screeen just comes up blank and I have to do a hard reset - anyone else had this problem and have any other options instead of the hard reset - or is it a take it back to the shop issue? any help much appreciated.

  • I have just purchased a touch viva - great little phone. I have just installed skype onto it from Fring - a website with a variety of mail/contact options: skype, MSN, Yahoo messenger, etc. Go to Fring.com, put in your gsm number and email address and you should receive it within seconds as a message on your phone - just click and follow download instructions.

  • Dear Sir, The message forward option is not there and also can i down load skype on the hand set

  • i was wondering, due to its 201mhz processor, would there be any problem if i install an 4gb card. Anyways without the heavy memory, is the phone fast enough to browse and function. DOes it have ny problems such as hang ups. and finaly if i install applicaion would it make the phone slower. Mainly if i increase the memory from 4gb to more would it be a problem cuz im thinking to buy it. so plz help me wid all the info.

  • hey is the virtual keypad really hopeless for messaging or not that bad after all is it possible to key in fast messages as in usual fones

  • you'right Sunshant!!!

  • No really big difference except size,quad-band,and the new UI(user interface)3D and so....

  • HTC 3450 was only 3d touch globe and win 6.0..... Over 3452 has got ram and rom upgrade and touch flow 2d interface. My recommendation will be touch viva as it is quad band over tri band 3452, and is specifically faster on its touch flo 2d interface. get in touch for further clarifications....

  • Have a check on amazon.com ,you'll find one

  • hey thanks just one more thing are good headfones available for this model as i heard they dont come in the package are htc made headfones available or other brands how much do they cost thank again

  • Hello! Can anybody tell me what is the difference between it and the older HTC Touch 3450 128/256? Reading the specs I only find the win 6.1 Thanks in advance

  • On the Gsmarena page click on "manual" then download it and you'll find a pdf file with all these infos you need

  • can somebody please give a clear picture about the touch viva virtual keyboard does it also have the regular t9 english dictionary as nokia regular and is it possible to send fast messages or is it not comfortable for messages thanks a lot

  • Tri-band,quad band are just a frequency question:for example in my country a cellphone company provides its service under the 850Mhz meaning that the 3452 will not work with this carrier cause the phone doesn't support the 850Mhz frequency.let's suppose that this company was only the only one in my country(an exemple)you would not be able to roam cause 3452 doesn't support the 850Mhz.With quad band phone you have unlimited roaming opportunity that's all

  • Thank you so much Sushant, but i just saw this reply today, finally i bought P3452. I really love it, but what way this quadband will help more than triband? pls explain. Also, whether google maps can be viewed in 3452, as Viva claims that its possible with it...

  • Can i install skype and use wifi to call using skype? Anyone had tested this capability?

  • Great phone, I have it for a month and it's so cool. Battery goes for 4 days! With 20-30min talk per day and some play with the functions, wi-fi etc. A great value for its money. I suppose the 3g model is better, with faster CPU, but lower battery life I presume

  • Viva is quad band and touch 3452 is tri band. cinsider it whle purchasing. Also i found touch 3452 bit slow as compared to viva

  • Dear HTC users, can you pls suggest whether i can buy this model or not? I lost my N70 today, bit upset, thought of buying HTC Touch, but confused of buying HTC Touch or Viva! Tell me in what way Viva is better than Touch? Is it worth buying it? Pls reply....

  • hai guys these phone is really good compare to 3452.i purchased this handsets its really cool.and one more thing about idea sim.U can unlock this phone and that is legal.i will give 9 out of 10

  • Any idea how you could upgrade the appointments/calendar option to display more than one event for the current day? Also can the alarm be altered so it actually does repeat continously rather than every minute ish. M

  • Hi guyz. As of now in India, this phone is coming with Idea at Rs 15800 approx. No Earphones in the box. U have to get the phone unlocked to use airtel or vodafone. But who cares ! U still have A2DP. U have wi-fii, 2.8 inch screen, storage upto 8 gb(16gb unofficially), 128 mb ram and 256 mb rom. The competitors in this range aint even half as good !!!! The touch flow and win6.1pro make it work like a dream. Not to forget that it is a business phone so browsing and emailing aint too bad either. All in all, its a gr8 phone.

  • Hi, First thing, its an unlocked phone any connection can work, secondaly, it does have a earpiece..if the dealer says NO...get it from Mobile Store..for more details watch full video on Youtube.com.....

  • hey guys , m seriousely planning to buy this one , but m confused after lookin at the review of the nokia 5800 express music . i mainly consider these two phones for my business purpose , ill be havin a lot of mails to send with the attachment of the photo copies in the mail . can any one sudjest as for which model should i go . pls help me out .

  • This mobile phone only uses Idea SIM cards. Really Bad!! There is no information regarding this given to the customer when he is buying the phone. Later on you keep on running after the Customer Care people. Its really bad .....

  • best hai baba

  • cool

  • Come on people... for that kind of money they could integrate at least an FM reciever. Which is to find, by the way, on every ultra cheap phone. What, is someone going to say that businessmen hear no radio or news.

  • But on www.selectgsm.com i spoke to the sale representative online ,he guarantied that the handsfree is included in their package they are saling.

  • your mobiles box is samething betania cookig plz chang your box & Giving the hand free thanks

  • htc u no u r mobile box is same like bretania cookis

  • yes sir

  • It is not too good :-/

  • I bought it guys, features are gr8. there is no earphone included in the package and also there is no microSD card need to buy them on own

  • good for 2mp & 300$ pda phone

  • Top urgent How can i used my notebook ADSL for Updating or any internet browsing with my PDA (HTC ViVA) ? i lost my card charge very soon because every thing would like going on-line such as WINDOW LIVE services.

  • may i know how is the video quality of this phone?

  • Thks brother.I'll check it on the net if i buy the phone

  • You don't see the hands free in the video because it indeed is not supplied by the manufacturer, unfortunately.

  • please all,tell me if the VIVA comes with a headset cause i don't see it in any online video.Thanks

  • i purchased htc touch viva, but we have not received hands free. dealer said me the company has stop the hands free with this mobile. is it true or not? m s patel

  • To Mostafa, Thanks very much for clarifying my doubts, however, when we say its Interface is better, it really is as it has 2D interface unlike diamonds 3D interface,but you know in a budget of 330$, options in the market are restricted to 201 MHz, be it any company...or if there is then do let me know? camera is ok 2MP,sound is good,battery is ok, NO FM (for those who really like listening) rest its discussed....All in all its a good deal.

  • I'm planning to buy it when launched here in Egypt. It's price is great though its performance is not so promised. To vijay: While I havn't buy it yet, I think that it has its full Windows Mobile power. It's the OS spec not the Vivi spec. To Sam: I think that RAM size will improve its performance over the old Touch, but for processor, you will sure find some poor speed that appear in luanching applications and so. I noticed that from YouTube vidoes that reviewd it. For bettery life, someone commented in this opinions page that it can work for 2 days. I think so by comparing it to the Touch 3G while specs are similar with the same battery capacity.

  • Hi All, Needless to say,Thanks for the feedback, do spare a moment to educate this novice on PDA fones I do wish to spend around Rs 12000-Rs 15000 i.e. around 300$ max or 235Euros max DO help me on the questions & some concerns below: 1)Keypad V/s Touchpad for SMS & Dialing? 2)Phone Processor Speed- How significant & ideal value 3)Screen Size- for optimum resolution 4)Camera - Is it of the Sony Ericsson W 800i quality 5)Sound - Is it of the Sony Ericsson W 800i quality 6)Headphones- Output 7)SOftwares- Ease of installing SW & support online 8)GPRS/EDGE-Settings availability 9)Service Support- India/Mumbai 10)Warranty/Guarantee- Replacement/Repair 11)Day time viewing- Enhanced View 12)Battery Charging - Talk GSM-intermittent 13)Touch Sensitiveness - How long does it last Ur suggestions are most welcome, before I get to actually buy any fone. My experience with Sony Ericsson W800i 1)Sound- Unbelievable quality 2)Camera - Superb 2MP lens 3)Headphones- One of the kind 4)Transfer of data- Pathetic, Data overwritten & SOngs corrupted 5)Messaging-Message memory limited, pathetic considering it to be a high end fone 6)Disc2Fone SW- Terrible which is the only way u can IN/OUT put the data

  • a great phone to buy...please expereince.

  • Hi Support this model of HTC farsi language is the font unic [email protected]

  • I am planning to buy, HTC TOUCH was bit slow, though this time RAM n ROM are improved, shall 201 MHZ processor will create an issue? Also, the camera is same, any change in that? battery life?

  • hey guys , plaanin to buy this one , looks a cool phone , but i have one doubt , tats can i connect this phone to my laptop or pc as a data comm .

  • Hey guys, I am here in Belize and I am thinking of buying one, Sounds great.....

  • WARNING : No resale value...!!!

  • Gorgious phone i purchase it from THE MOBILE STORE - Shahibaug and they are very friendly and customer oriented GOOD guys

  • Battery life: A fully charged battery lasts for about 2 days under my usage, which includes: 5-10 GSM calls and 10-15 SMS daily, breaking bubbles at least for some 100 minutes a day :), and a lot of playing with it since it is only a week that I have it. Connectivity: The GPRS is slow, though the phone connects to the service pretty fast, and Wi-Fi is good, though it takes some 2-3 seconds to load sites. Haven't had any problems with GSM module: the signal is pretty good, and no distortions when speaking. Overall I would say that this is a really worthy device for its price (I bought it for about 300$).

  • Guys, this devise is awesome. It's much better than the previous ones. Perfect size and compatibility for my usage.

  • Good phone with excellent features though user interface isn't very friendly especially the meticulous touch through the concaved screen. However I prefer this windows 6.1 to my previous S620s 5.0 version. Also playing Mp4s is quite smooth unlike the S620 guessing the RAM increase helped.

  • pls can u tell me how is the battery life,internet connectivit.

  • Hi guys, Is it easy to type a SMS/TXT as the earlier model had very minute input onscreen keypad...secondly if this handset does not come with a headset do HTC sell extra compatible headset?

  • Hi, it seems the phone screen not flat like HTC Touch. It is a bit inset. Can anyone tell about it?

  • launched-in-india Price HTC Touch Pro - Rs. 34,900 ($708) HTC Touch Viva- Rs. 16,490 ($335)

  • its a great device, much better than the htc touch, software is very stable, soud quality is strong. i've been using this device for more than a week. except for the package content no handsfree, pouch and extra cable.

  • Hi guys I bought this phone last week. it's very nice. but just 3 things : 1. it doesn't have internal GPS. 2. the LCD is QVGA not VGA. 3. it doesn't have handsfree in the package. All other devices are perfect also speakers sound is great.

  • Hi guys, I'm seriously considering to buy this device, so if there are any users please share your experience both in general and on any particular issues you may think worth noting. Thanks.

  • it has handsfree in the packet?

  • Its a great phone

  • Well, It doesn't seem to be very nice Not much features

  • Is the texting like t9 or qwert... if qwerty which one the single button like the iphone or the 2 letters in the button like the Blackberry pearl

  • i bought one it is being charged then i`ll boot and tell u what i use it as anentry level

  • Not very - if u use the default software. But, if you download a 3rd party soft keyboard such as touchpal (www.cootek.com) unparelled speed of texting can be acheieved with practice which can even surpass texting speeds on a full size PC keyboard

  • it wil take any micro SDHC card. Currently the max storage available on this format is 16GB.

  • Concern, Is it actually possible. 1. Download "MyWay.MP3" to Nokia E66. 2. Set MyWay.MP3 as Default ringtone for Unknown Caller (Caller number is not on contact list/phonebook). 3. Set MyWay.Mp3 as Default ringtone for Unknown SMS/MMS sender (Sender number is not on contact list/phonebook) 3. Set MyWay.MP3 as Default ringtone for Alarm Clock. 4. Set MyWay.MP3 as Default ringtone for Calendar Alarm. Please reply.

  • up to 16GB.

  • im thinking about getting this phone, can someone tell me up to what size the card slot supports.....im thinking abt geting a 4gb sd but im not sure if it will work ...........thanx

  • how much is this phones

  • i was meant to say its an avenue for CONS..i was angry dat was why..some people might be gud there though

  • all the people on diy are CON they conned me...

  • Can anyone pls tel me how comfortable is texting without the stylus on this phone???

  • i think it is no deffirance betweent touch viva and p3400 just wi-fi rom and ram win 6.1 that is all this mean may htc repeat itself but with new look . like old singer disappeared then come again with new song with new look ..........

  • Those who feel that 201 MHz is low; just look at the pricing. Besides that, HTC has its optimisations on works and as I have used this phone; its simply great. I just dont know how it could work so well on 201 MHz. Though 128 MB RAM is a relief on such a phone. Of course, if you wanna use it for playing HD videos, then I cannot help.

  • besides being bulkier what is the difference between this and the HTC touch. are you just getting greedier and trying to rip people off.

  • was wondering if the txting on this machine is similar to the older machines or do we need the stylus?

  • thanks for the reply, that's good news!

  • The price is good but the phone is not Friendly at all and is not easy to throgh... Why HTC ?!!!!!

  • The whole back panel is supposed to be removed in order to put SIM and battey in it, just like in every other phone

  • The entire back panel is removable, I forgot to mention that the Mini SD slot is under the battery, which is annoying since I do like to hot swap my sd cards every now and then.

  • how do you replace the battery? cannot see a seperate battery cover in the pic's. Or does this phone have a non-user replaceable battery like the iphone?

  • it is HTC Touch with new look seems they still have a lot of HTC and they replace the housng and upgradethe OS

  • It is a great pocket pc. I m quite satisfied with its performance and beauty. WM6.1 makes its performance too smooth. TouchFlo is also ideal to handle so many tasks.

  • it is so cool and looking smart...........

  • sorry - meant to say "cannot" see a seperate battery cover.....

  • how do you replace the battery? can see a seperate battery cover in the pic's. Or does this phone have a non-user replaceable battery like the iphone?

  • So far I love this phone. I am able to take care of all my e-mail, surf the web, and handle a few programs that I use for reference (I work in a pharmacy). I do love the small design but I'm not too keen with the raised bezel. I try to use the phone without the stylus but when I need to use the scroll bar, that's when I have to take it out. The keypad is adequate for the size of the screen but although I have normal sized fingers, I do hit the wrong key every now and then. Speaking of, the screen size I say is really not for everyone. I don't suggest reading a long word document for long unless you want to strain your eyes. The call quality is great and the wi-fi is pretty quick. I do not have EDGE or 3G so I can't really tell you the quality of those services. I do have some of my music on the Viva and the quality is pretty good. The camera I would say is adequate. I've seen better on other phones. The Touch Flo works wel with this phone and is responsive. The UI can be worked with so you won't have to use the start menu all the time. This I really liked. Texting I simple and actually saves it as conversations so you can keep track with what you and your "textee" talked about. I will say that this is a great phone for regular use. An all in one device to entertain you while standing in line at the bank or maybe for college students too. I would not recommend it for business use though. It is in fact an entry level Pocket PC. But for the price I believe it's worth having. Rating: 8/10

  • Actually, This phone (along with the touch 3G) has the touchflo 2D which is a flatten version of touchflo 3d. It actually runs quite smoothly. I just want to get it on the diamond

  • oh!i think it is a great phone and nice price also iam gonna to purshase one thank you

  • just to make a small comment i currently own the touch diamond...its a great phone, its has 192mb ram and 528 mhz processor...and with all of that..the phone used to lag a bit... just by using touch flo 3D, 54% of the ram would be taken... so imagine if on this phone they have touch flo 3D, and only 128mb ram and just a 201 mhz processor??? i dont think its gona work well....

  • In Switzerland it's from 398.-, so about 280 Euros. Could i help?

  • Thank you...these were my only doubts about this phone...so i think it's gonna be my new one :D thanks!

  • I'm currently using a Touch with the same specs as the Viva... and 201Mhz is fast enough... I use wifi a lot (if you want a fast browser use Opera 9.5; better than IE) and make tons of calls and text tons of messages... also use music a lot... and no problems!!! I have no lags... Also, I�m using Manilla 2D UI which is identical to that of the HTC Touch 3D and Viva... so, yes, it is fast enough

  • Ist 201 MHz to low for regularly using WiFi, calling and writing text messages? I wouldn't use music so often, other features are nice but not necessary used every day...so is 201 MHz processor enough or to low? does anyone have experience of this point with the HTC touch?

  • i lost my htc touch last week so i had no other option but to buy a new one. so i bought an htc touch viva, it has more features than the old touch but i think the memory is lower. it its longer but lighter than the old touch. and the price is almost the same just slightly higher.

  • Hongkong already have it HKD2880 is a nice price with the spec.and promotion free 4G m.card. This T.VIVA only came to Fight Asus P320.

  • man, you guys are missing the point. this is an entry level phone. From what i heard its price should be low. If you want a fast processor then go for the touch 3g. What htc did was take a popular phone, give it a new design, say its actually a quad band, give it a new interface( which i heard isn't slow on the 200mhz) and sell it low. If you want high end, then your at the wrong phone.

  • it is practically the same as the htc touch. i'm not so sure about the design. the "sunken" screen doesn't work for me. anyway, htc rocks and go htc touch hd!!!!!! (sorry viva!)

  • Exactly! Like i said already 200MHz is much below par... The original Touch already experienced lag problems. Hopefully this phone is aimed for people with lower budget. And another BIG hope is that the new touchFLO is more efficient so rendering graphics for the mediocre processor will not provide a laggy experience.

  • same as TC Touch, just new dsign, wats the use? at least they could have given a faster processor! else buy Touch , why buy this

  • This looks like the same underpowered Touch with improved interface... Unless the processor can be overclocked (as the original Touch can be, with the help of some 3rd party app) I would steer away from this to prevent the risk of having a supremely laggy phone. 200Mhz is much below par.

  • the phones just like the HTC china mobile S1 windows mobile with the same specification and with a cheaper cost only RM770 and it is available now check this : i just google it on interenet

  • this is just the old touch with the new touchflo interface

  • uhh...what's the difference between this and the HTC Touch???

  • what about it's ram and rom?

  • nice phone
