T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide - User Reviews

  • who manufactured which components?

  • So you can put a T-Mobile SIM card in there

  • does some body has its pannel

  • hi can someone help me to unlock it's sim lock for free..tnx

  • my htc 4g slide can't connect to mobile network,sort me out

  • I'm in Colombia and have one of this, I got it unlocked, but it only works with 2G network. It's been getting really slow with time and battery doesn't last more than 40 minutes. Does anybody know if I could make it work with 3G network at least?

  • Yes, My mytouch-slide works well with T-Mobile

  • Yes, works great with T-Mobile 4G network.

  • Its name says 4G, but this spec contains no info on 4G frequencies. Anyone knows if it works on 4G networks and what are LTE frequencies? HTC website somehow has no info on this phone.

  • good but not very cool

  • Although this is months late, Yes, it works in the US. I've been using it for two years.

  • Thanks for the info. I was wondering what a mini sim was.

  • Does it work in the usa

  • I really love this phone. Since I bought it,I have never had test for any phone else yes I mean any phone,it's a very good phone .

  • Mini-SIM is the proper term. These are the standard SIMs that most phones have been using for years. Micro-SIMs are used by iPhones and are even smaller.

  • Regular SIM in the one I received, not Mini, nor micro.

  • My touch 4G was bought from US and i have tried to have the network unlocked to suit the Kenyan market and all in vain, how can i be assisted?

  • Yeah mine, runs Cm10,, a jelly bean unofficial Rom, looks like official though, no bugs

  • all of a sudden my phone locks and i cannot get it unlocked. I have brought it to a cell phone fix place and they even replaced the screen, but still not unlocked. t-mobile has tried to reset it, no luck. cell phone fix place says he had to mark it in their books as unrepairable. I have only had the phone for 2 months.I can send it back for manufacturers whatever it is but that gonna cost me 150.00. what the heck for i just got the thing. help. or advice please.

  • can dis fone be upgraded to i c s........waiting for ya reply........thx.

  • pls why did u said that we should not slide the phone.....

  • the best phone ever, but dont slide the phone, just use the touch screen... 8D

  • Download Moborobo app

  • Is the phone upgradable?

  • I am not the software for HTC T-MOBILE MY TOUCH 4G SLIDE so as to be able to access it from a laptop what do I do?

  • I am trying to take pictures using my T-MOBILE MYTOUCH 4G SLIDE camera but whenever I touch the camera icon the screen goes blank then I get this message ( "camera" did not allow accessing network by default) what should do to be able to use my phone camera to take pictures

  • I am trying to take pictures with the phone camera and whenever I touch the camera Icon the phone screen goes blank then I get this message( "camera" did not allow accessing network by default) What do I do to be able to take pictures from my phone??

  • On my second myTouch and it is a piece of crap. When i talk on phone and then try to press "end" screen goes dark and I cannot "hang up". It has happened on both phones and I have tried everything to make it stop doing this. ???

  • I got the Samsung captivate glide and its all good...but for some reason I am not able to open upt (picture messages) it just continualy say downloading and never opens up...it' an unlocked (AT&t) phone but I have (T-Mobile)...I got to send back ...cause pic/msg is important to me ...but I realy fell inlove with the phone.

  • welcome to android

  • just buy it on craigslist for $100-125. Even eBay has them cheap enough to be worth it. They are beastly phones for the price.

  • I love the specs of this phone. I own a Sidekick 4G and have just completed my required time to qualify for a partial discount. I know that I should wait until I get the full discount to get a high end flagship phone...but, the Sidekick is just getting on my nerves. I am stuck on Froyo. Samsung is no longer planning to release anymore updates and the devs at xda are more interested in showing off their Nexus and Galaxy phones. I actually had to sit down and learn how to use Android Kitchen because my two main roms got outdated and all the devs moved on to high end flagships.

  • baaaad battery life..

  • I'm using one of this phone. It is really good but i cannot make downloading. Do anyone know how to set it for downloading?

  • the book is on the table

  • This is the best qwerty phone alive so long as smartphone is concerned. Go get it

  • true, I own one of these and in my opinion this is one of the best qwerty phones out right now. it seems that tmobile is focused on manufacturing cheap to mid range phones, and it seems like its going to be a while before tmobile or anyone will produce a high end qwerty phone. the focus now on the market for androids are tablet style phones or large screen phones.

  • who forced you?

  • What language is this? I certainly can't understand it.

  • Hey, but in the end this is the beat of the mytouch phone to come out.

  • technically it is not 4g technology. it is still 3g hsdpa+. companies advertise hsdpa+ as marketing schemes to make it sound like next generation speeds, when in reality 4g should be 1000x faster or so than 3g

  • it uses HSPA+ technology, which AT&T and T MOBILE classify as 4G speeds.

  • xup my peeps dis my tourch 4G slide is a merciful phone, nd am using my tourch 3G slide nd dis 3G slide de finish work 4 d phone talkles of 4G, if u can buy dis 4G 4get about anyoder phone......na koreect, dnt hesitate

  • Can some one answer this question for me cause i am at a lost right now. How can a phone network feature stated 2G & 3G yet it is advertised as a 4G phone? How does that work?

  • Folks i want to get this phone but i need your advise if it a good phone to get. Thanks

  • Ebay.com. You may prefer to buy the Samsung Captivate Glide, it has more memory.

  • CPU is the Qualcomm MSM8660

  • go to eBay or Amazon and search for my touch 4g slide. HERE IS LINK USED - NEW BLACK - NEW KHAKI -

  • Please how do I order for this phone, I want it badly. please reply ASAP

  • no it doesn't have HDMI but u can use RCA Cable as HDMI its same thing. here is

  • no hdmi..

  • hello. does this phone has an HDMI out? thanks.

  • Where did you buy this mobile? I want to buy it too

  • htc is such a idiot they should have released this phone globaly istead they realeased for tm they forced me to buy xperia pro

  • I have this phone best phone I had yet and I also compared camberas with the iphone 4s and I think the mytouch has a better cambera...

  • this mobile is a bluetooth considered?

  • +1 on Desire Z replacement

  • hi! i loved this phone i didnt get it yet but my brother has it. i believe that its the best i like androids with a key board big texter! and a touch i also like.. very nice camera. 8gb and a long battery hour. it also has a voice command system.

  • i have the G2 and i adore it but its getting old and i want to upgrade it this phone is the only one that looks good enough since i use the optical trackpad a LOT! so i can't buy a phone that doesn't have it should i buy this phone?

  • Except for the absolutely crap battery life, I love this phone. It's the perfect replacement for my trusty Desire Z.

  • I've had this phone and the G2 and my wife has the myTouch 3G slide. This phone probably has a slight edge over the 3G slide, but the G2 is a much better phone all around. The WiFi hotspot works with the G2 -- it doesn't with the 4G slide. The G2 doesn't crash, the 4G slide, like the 3G slide, crashes every couple weeks. The G2 has a relatively clean software install, while the 4G slide and 3G slide has some awful mods to the base Android. All have pretty bad battery life out of the box. The 4G slide has an advantage here because the high capacity after market batteries are about $15 rather than $50 for the Sanyo battery for the G2 and 3G slide. The 4G slide advertisements and even some reviews talk about how fast the camera is. It is extremely slow in high res mode and on par with the G2 in low res mode. The cameras are fine as point-n-click cameras, but the small sensor and lens mean the extra mega-pixels in high res mode are wasted anyway. All have decent keyboards, but they are no G1 keyboards. The 4G slide feels a little snappier than the G2, as you would expect from the specs; but this in no way makes up for its deficiencies with respect to the G2. The 4G slide may be a little better than the 3G slide overall, but unless you have a real problem with the keyboard pop-out mechanism on the G2 go with that one and save yourself some headaches.

  • loved my HTC touchpro 2 3g, which was Windows Mobile. Not loving the Droid experience on the MyTouch 4G slide, tho it did come with 2.3.4 Honeycomb. Not user friendly so far; especially trying to type in URLs without arrow keys; although it is supposed to do a cursor focus like an iPad when I press and hold, instead it opens a different menu. I can't see all notifications such as missed calls at a glance. The 8 MP camera takes great photos, but there seems to be no menu options for sending them via email or Facebook. Facebook seemed to be either trying to import all my Friends to contacts or trying to ask me to choose friends to send to while I was trying to upload a photo. Email and other apps crash often, and reporting an incident is a time-consuming chore requiring 3-4 clicks to agree to user agreement first, each time. Keyboard--the reason I chose this phone--is a disappointment. HTC should have retained the dedicated 5th number row, and keys are oddly hard to reach with my somewhat small hands--tho I forget that I now have two alt keys. I miss arrow keys for fixing typos (I don't think the cursor rocker button acts that way), and the keys are too slippery, set too flat and also unresponsive, so that it is hard to tell whether you have hit it hard enough. Should I have gone with the Motorola droid 3? I'll still keep it over an iPhone or iPad any day tho.

  • what's up with the tiny display

  • Technically speaking yes it has the capiblities to work worldwide. But you will need to have it unlocked.

  • It seems a nice phone. I am gonna gift it to my sis. and yes it is a gsm phone will work in europe, asia and America

  • hey even i m wondering the same....

  • If I buy this phone online will it work properly in the uk?

  • i dont know who is using your touch slide

  • why is this so cheap?

  • no graphics processor?

  • if i get this phone and unlock it, will it work on bell canada (Canadian carrier) and if i do, will it still be unlocked after a software update? anyone can answer at least of one of those i would be very grateful

  • hello everybody .....greeting can i please advice me. who is using my touch slider how is the Qwerty keypad ? i see in You Tube i don t thing so keypad is comparable for work. i am right now using my-touch 4g what is deferent my-touch slider and my touch. thanks khem

  • Do you know if this model from HTC will be available in Europe?

  • I had my touch 4g, when my touch slide came out the thing I don't like a keyboard & it should be 4.0 display.the front side same as my touch 4g and I don't like the home buttons it should be touch button like a other HTC phone. Becz I had my touch 4g the button some time don't work and making noises when u press it.and one more thing, the dust inside the screen and the front camera. How I clean it.

  • This is exactly the kind of phone I am looking for. Will it be available in the uk?

  • I'm thinking that in terms of the specs, they leave a lot to be desired simply to spark interest. 4G slide being a next gen phone they will improve on it's former's. Simply sit back for a few more weeks and wait, because the 4G slide like all phones will reveal their secrets once our ever pliant fingers get ahold of them. ;)

  • that's the purpose of root, where there are apps that allow you to force even a non-apk app into an external storage. Go to xda-dev .com for more details. Also since the standard myt4g is rooted there should be no issue with a pera root on this one

  • Making a video on my touch u can't pause it & u can't edit video. I hope they add this stuff.

  • hi, when will u launch this cell, almost july is begining

  • There is no mention of the amount of internal storage. Why? Since 99% of apps wont load to external that could be a serious problem.

  • Why, I switched to Sprint is beyond my belief! I still have 30 days to switch back to T-mobile from Sprint to avoid a cancellation fee and 90 days with t-mobile to avoid cancellation fee. I am definitely going back to T-mobile. Sprint's 3G service is a bloody joke and their 4G I'm not even going there (ROFL). I personally believe the MyTouch 3G slide was the best Smartphone T-mobile has ever released (overall), to this very day next to the MyTouch 4G (if you don't mind not having a quirky keyboard). I traded in the 3G Slide for the 4G for obvious reasons and then made a foul move at switching to the new LG G2x... OMG... big mistake! Yeah, the phone has all kinds of bells and whistles but, the phone overall sucks in my opinion! I am so livid with myself for switching to Sprint yesterday and THEN, to find out today that T-mobile has a MyTouch4Gslide along the way.. has me in shame with the choice I made. I regret the move and will take that advantage with me back to Best Buy next week when I'm back in town.

  • Hi, any one know when 3d phone coming to T-mobile.

  • At a minimum the ram will be 768Mb as on the mytouch 4g.

  • It will prob be... htc doubleshot? Since that got rumoured and then it quieten down :(

  • wont be any international version that's for tmobile only they never released before any internationl ver from mytouch colection.

  • What will the international version of the T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide from HTC be called? Any chance of 850MHz 3G support, a Canadian or US AT&T version?

  • How much internal storage?

  • RAM size?

  • The international version, not t-mobile, from HTC will probably be released at the same time as SonyEricsson XPERIA Pro and will probably be less expensive!

  • I hope the keyboard better then the my touch 3g. Like a G2, Otherwise Great phone. Android is always make people Happy. :) 5*

  • What's the uk version called?

  • no digital compass ??!! are these specs really official or htc has lost their mind ??

  • Good specs!!

  • Nice phone ! how much RAM it got ?
