Are the rumors of a Star Trek 2 true? - HTC Startrek

I am not sure if the forum or the WIKI is the right place, but I wondered if anyone has real confirmed knowledge of a Star Trek 2 coming out. I found an entry on the Internet concerning it, and it even included a photo of the proposed model.

Do you have a link to the article with the supposed photo?

check the date
check the date on the article, there was talk of one a year or so ago (with gps), but it was never substantiated by HTC

if you look closely at the pic, you can see this is just a pic of a startrek in a case.

Yeah I've been waiting for the "Erato" too, but I Think it will never be seen on the market, just like the I-Mate Ultimate Clamshell...

Yeah, I was hoping for a new clamshell smartphone, with windows mobile 6, 3G, and MicroSDHC capabilities. I read somewhere HTC cancelled it.
Hope they will reconsider, there really are no other phones out there like the startrek.

The buttons are different though.
But yes, since it was posted a year ago, I would say there won't be a StarTrek 2 in the near future.

HTC S420 Release Date - May 16th, 2007

Oh the glory and the smell of a new phone. As I posted a few weeks ago, the HTC S420 is coming. This is the follow on to the StarTrek and I must say, with some nice feature upgrades. We know, there is NO WiFi, but I am willing to sacrifice sleekness for a few things. Did we already mention that it will have WM6, 400Mhz CPU, GPS Receiver, Quad-Band, FM Radio, UMTS, and a 2.0 mega-pixel camera. Oh yea!!
So gentlemen and ladies, get your Credit Cards warmed up because supposedly we have a RTS/Release date of May 16th, 2007.
Here are some sites that are taking pre-orders. Click here to see some Froogle ads. (I in no way endorse these sites) Matter of fact I prefer the good ol' eBay way or MobilePlanet myself.
And yes...The initial sticker price is high but just give it a few weeks and your carriers should have them in stock.
Enjoy -

Correction on Date - Received new word that it will be May 18th, 2007.

Thanks for the info. This is the first time I read something about a release date of this little beauty.
In Denmark??
Hi.. Do you think that this phone is gonna be on the marked in may, in Denmark to??
Would be great
hmm ive only seen a mock up CGI type pic of the unit not an actual live photo,any around?
Today it's the 18th. No news on it so far on the Net. I hope it will be released soon, though I do not excpect it before june. We'll see.
I hoping we at least see it in June. No one has yet seen a pre-production/release model yet which usually crops up first. I checked with Haider at SMG and he has no word. There are a couple of folks who have the pre-production S630s so we will probably see that released first. Dopod has also announced their version of. As of yet, I have seen no official announcements on the erato.
I need it the HTC S420
if there not even an in the wild tru pic knocking around the net ,then i doubt we are anywere near getting it myself

I agree. Let's hope their just looking for better battery life before releasing this little baby.
I was hoping it would be out...and that the Bluetooth to Uconnect would sound better (my main complaint about the StarTrek)

HTC S420 (also known as Erato) has been canceled.
HTC announced it on 29. May. They cancel releasing and doesnt start to produce the smartphone.
That sucks but would not be totally unexpected.
Can you give us the link to the press release since it's not (yet) on one of the HTC sites?

It's Czech, not English. But I am sure you understand what does mean the cross on the picture.

I find that weird that they are canceling a great phone but you never know. I did call the HTC Bellevue office and they knew nothing of a cancellation. I will email the Taiwanese location and see if there have been any developments. You never know.
Just do clarify, Froogle and PDAdb.net has the phone still coming in July now.

Well, that's just what sunnysoft said. And after all the crap they posted (i.e. Qtek 8500 has miniUSB, selling extUSB>JACK as microUSB>JACK,............), who will believe to what they said? They also said that Treo 750 will never be shipped to Europe
Another info from simon211175 at modaco (his post)
Last week I emailed HTC europe to find out if the StrTrk/Qtek 8500 was going to be given the WM6 facelift. When they said (in vague terms) "no", I asked when its successor (S420/Erato) will be out.
The reply was "The release date for the HTC 420 is expected to be in July 2007"
I know this probably means September at the earliest, but it's a start.

Now I am a bit confused but this message may be few days older...
Well, so far the Czech Sunnysoft site is the only one claiming the Erato is cancelled. No other site confirming it or confirmation from HTC. So, let's cross fingers for a July release

Titan Scene left town?

what has happened to the titan scene on xda, no one developing anymore? everyone move too ppcgeeks or something? whats the story with this ghost town forum?
What's left? This thing works perfect!
Yeah does seem strangely quiet lately I guess its due the imminent release of the Pro in the states for all the Sprint and ATT people
Everyone got tired of carrying around bricks and got Touch Diamonds.

I kinda have to agree here... DCD 3.2.6 has just been stable and good to me... I am going to give nueRom3 a shot eventually, but I think the excitement of the Titan is gone and people are now focusing on the Diamond and Touch Pro

I agree, it has been a ghost town after GC hooked us up with solid GPS. Not a whole lot more hardware wise we can do. We need to focus on creating bad ass custom ROMS. Check my first publicly released rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436997&page=2 Post #15.
Peace!
not sure about the rest of you, but I am completely satisfied with dcd3.2.6 and intend to keep running it until the Touch HD is released in the US.
I really wish development would have continued, I never got SMS working on 3.2.6, so I'm stuck with 3.2.5 and the annoying callwating... noise.
Yea and sucks b/c verizon wont get a diamond or anything like it for a very long time so Im stuck with what we got here

it does say that HTC has some other great stuff planned, but who knows how long itll be till anyone gets it...and then add some time till verizon finally does.
I agree with you, things seem slow around here. I read this forum every night, seems as though DCD was always trying to find a better way to do something and a lot of other great solutions were born out his enthusiasm. Hope to see him back soon!

According to an article on on Engagdet Mobile training for the Touch Diamond had to be completed by December. So maybe Verizon will be getting it sooner then everyone expects. It is Verizon though so who knows.

I've been following this one... I'm due for an upgrade. As much as I love my Titan, I am always up for the latest and greatest - and the Omnia does look pretty nice. I do seem to remember a similar topic last year with the XV6800... didn't it show up on some rebate forms months before it was released? Knowing Verizon, I'm not getting my hopes up yet...

HTC Titan - Cases/Shells?

Hi,
does any of you spotted quality cases/shells for the HTC Titan x310e somewhere?
Contacted Case-Mate to know if the ones for the Sensation XL work for the Titan but they said no. (Probably because of the round border on the Android ones).
Thanks.
Would be good if we had a titan sub forum for this sort of question

Yah, the number of Titan related questions and the increasing amount of owners warrants its own forum already.
I got my case from ebay.
Its a very good fit.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390338584272?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Others suggestions? I live in canada and either the seller doesnt ship to where i live, or there is a 15-25days delay for a single cover.
Any suggestion from US/Canada?
Thanks in advance!
Still no titan sub forum, although another new android one I notice, is this now android developers? ;-)

Does the job but there is a small problem with charging the phone
The case is so thick that the mini USB plug is too short, which means every time you want to charge your phone you have to take it out of the case or take the phone out of its original case (like the way getting access to battery/sim)... and loose the signal.
I like this one. Inquired if one is in the pipeline for the Titan.

Weird ... because I got not at all this problem ; all is ok with plug-in micro-USB slot , I never take the Titan off the case since I installed it
Are you sure it's the same case ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320749362244
But I have to cut the thin part to access easily to sound ans camera buttons (on the right size), very easy to do :
And now I'm totally satisfied with this case , good protection, and not thick at all
In general, I bought Vaja or Piel Frama (a lot more expensive !), and even if this one is not of the same quality (it's not leather) it does perfectly the job. Don't know if I'll change for one of those when they made a case for Titan ...
I found a good leather horizontal one from "eden park" brand. I will post a photo later from my PC.

Inquired PowerSkin. It is not in the make of yet, but are considering it. One is already available for the HTC Sensation, but won't fit the Titan.
I found these by PDAir ... they also sold product on amazon. It seems really nice but I can't find any review. People on the net seems to complain a lot about their shipping which can take up to 20 days. Sorry I am not allow to post link yet. But do a search on Amazon or google PDAir and they have several products.
I bought a Noreve HTC Titan Tradition leather case (http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/HTC_Titan_Tradition_leather_case.html)
I will make a test for you and some photos when I receive it
Can someone please post more photos of their Titans with Cases? Thanks.

The Waiting Room - Off-Topic Chat

While everyone is waiting for their phones, I thought I would start a thread where we could just talk without worrying about going off-topic. If you want to talk about how other phones compare to the ATT HTC One, rant about rotten fruit and the vegetables that use them, etc, than this is the place.
Just please remember that all of the forum rules still apply here though.
welcome to XDA
Hi everybody, I am one of the mods on the team, welcome to the forums. If you post a question thread here in the General forum and notice it is missing, please check the One Q&A forum and you might just find it there.
If you posted a placeholder thread simply to gain thanks for doing nothing, you might have to keep looking...

BTW for any mods out there the picture for the main subpage for this phone (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2222) has the wrong picture--the AT&T one has a AT&T logo on the backside above the Beats branding. The one here doesn't.

They just had to slap that damn thing somewhere. The Sprint version doesn't seem to have a logo on the back, looks much nicer.
would it be wise for me to wait for the black version of this phone just to make sure they got all the "kinks" out?
I've been discouraged to buy htc phones when they first come out because they usually end up having some sort of issues..
last year i bought the htc one x at launch (full price too) and kept having off and on issues with wifi. I swapped it out a few times and ended up selling it at the end.
I was able to see both the SIV and HTC one in person. The build quality on the ONE impressed me. I will say though the phone was very warm when I held it. HTC one X all over again..
Part of me hates to admit it but knows that in the long run the SIV is a better investment..
Im waiting, but I dont know what to do yet. I want the black version, not the silver. Im going to buy off of contract so I will more than likely get the Developers edition... but who knows when or if they will have the black version in that. I want the phone now, but Im going to wait until the black is released...whenever that is.
Excuse me, Moderator. I had posted a thread in the themes and apps section detailing resources for a screenshot thread. It was taken down, any clue as to why?

XDA forum used to be about HTC phone but now time has changed and HTC become a minority.
Finally, a new off-topic section for this place.
My phone's coming sometime next week.
I really want the black version, but no one knows when it is coming. I'm tempted to go order the silver one today, but now I'm trying to decide between 32GB and 64GB.
I never hit the limit on my 32GB iPhone, but I did hit the limit on my 16GB S3

I have been sitting on an upgrade since November last year - tried the One X+ but returned it due to the bluetooth issues. Now I have a trip coming up and need a phone before it, so I don't have a choice - silver it is. Oh well, they both look good, just prefer the black a little.
I'll wait for the black one hopefully it comes out on launch day. The silver one to me only looks good in the front but I can see all that silver in the back getting old real quick. I have had a few black phones in the past and after a year with the white S3 I miss the sexyness and classyness of a black phone. The stealth black on the ONE is definitely bringing sexy back!
If the black is available next Friday I will be very happy. However I ordered the silver 32GB in case it isn't. I don't anticipate an exchange to be a problem.
If it's silver, it's silver.
