QUOTE(dirlan2001 @ Mar 2 2008, 21:34)  Hi all, I got a iPAQ 614c sice last week. After 1 week, I can tell you : this baby ROCKS .... Screen : Sharp, clear, exellent playback with TCPMP Sound : soft, speaker is located on the back GSM : as good as it gets ; speakerphone rather quiet ; BT headset (Jabra BT500) amplifies VERY good ( on the edge of causing ear-damage) GPS : first fix took some time, tested with VisualGPSce, Navio, TomTom 6 : rocksolid always 8-9 satelites in view and in use Camera : sucks (see attachment) ; funny : the 'mirror' on the back for selfportraits is rather good Smart Wheel : WOW, acts like a touchpad, without taking the place of it. Keypad : needs real pressing, not for weak fly-overs WM 6 : needs tweaking  Hope this helps, Dirk Hi Dirk..congrats with your new "toy"  Could you try the following (I think there might be a couple of bugs in the FW so I need to have a second opinion) CALENDER: in month view: when using the wheel up down or left and right (or maybe scroll) does your unit scroll by the weeks or by the days. Mine scroll only by weeks, which seems not to be correct (if i compare to a smart phone standard) CONTACTS: Select a contact with multiple numbers (don't select the contact, just stay in the contacts list view with the contact highlighted). to the left on the screen you will see the H or M or TXT (whatever is selected as default contact method) which has been selected. Now try to select a different contact method for that contact by dragging your finger to the left or right on the wheel (don't scroll). How does the phone behave? on mine the H or M or TXT just keeps scrolling and scrolling and there is no way to stop it unless i exit the screen. This must clearly be a bug. On the WinMo standard it works OK. OK button: In the manual is says that the wheel can be disabled by pressing the OK button for a period of time. This does not work on my unit. How about yours? I already tried to do both a hard reset and soft reset but it did not solve the above problems. If you see that same problems, maybe we should contact HP and ask a bout any solution or similar (updates etc) -------------------- AAAARRRGGGHHHH...Suck my system...

QUOTE(Spree @ Mar 2 2008, 23:28) But when you normally calling through ear (without handsfree or loudspeaker) it's OK or volume is low? when calling "through ear" that sound can get pretty high if you turn up the volume to max. That is what I meant

QUOTE(Spree @ Mar 2 2008, 23:28) But when you normally calling through ear (without handsfree or loudspeaker) it's OK or volume is low? With volume at maximum, it's OK. There's really only one speaker in this phone, so if you call out of hand, you'll bound to muffle the sound somewhat with your hand.

QUOTE(dimaka_ua @ Mar 3 2008, 11:31) Hi dirlan2001! Could you take some photos outside, on the sun?  Have you tried Skype? Hi, I'd like to, you just send me some sun I haven't tested Skype. From my experience on the hx4700, it's not what I expected it to be. Cheers, Dirk -------------------- iPAQ 614c - WM 6 UK with minor tweaks iPAQ hx4700 - WM 6 WWE Kozhura edition 4 |

If you see that same problems, maybe we should contact HP and ask a bout any solution or similar (updates etc) Hi, I tested all your issues. Calendar : as far as I can see it, the scrollwheel replaces the 2 little arrows on the topleft of your screen : these arrows let you go through your calendar week by week. The same goes for the 'year' or 'week' view. The scroll acts the same as the 2 arrows in the topleft corner. Contacts : it took some training, but with a steady hand and slowly starting from '5' button left or right, let's me scroll through a contacts' numbers and e-mail adresses. But you really need a STEADY hand. It flips more one up or down the contactlist, then flipping through one contact's numbers... but, yeah it works. I guess it looks like you have faulty hardware there. The OK button : if you mean the OK button on the keypad : it's not working. If you mean the first button (left side, topmost) : it works. Just keep that button pressed until a little 'lock' appears next to the Speaker/Phone/Battery icons. Soft reset doesn't bring anything, unless you've been playing around in the registry. Hard reset can be done from the Start/Settings/System/Factory Recovery..... Cheers, Dirk -------------------- iPAQ 614c - WM 6 UK with minor tweaks iPAQ hx4700 - WM 6 WWE Kozhura edition 4 |

Thanks a lot in advance and Best regards,,, Very strange indeed... I've this baby for two weeks now, and so far never ever had any problem with it. It's all day in my truck, running TomTom, WiFi and BT headset without problem. The only thing : the camera is SLOW to start, SLOOOOOOw to make a pic, quality is nowhere near a 3MP camera (it uses CMOS instead of CCD) ....

Hi all!
I have been searching the net for a few weeks now about this phone. This will be my first attempt to go into the PDA/SmartPhone world, and I must say I am little bit confused. Right now, I am seriously considering the HP IPAQ 614c. I am a "keyboard person" so I wouldn't go with a touch only phone (i.e. iPhone, HTC Touch etc). The 614c specs look awesome, but the only thing that is not clear to me is the issue with the GPS. How does this work on the 614c? Does it need some kind of third-party software to give you point-to-point directions, like a GPS navigation device? Does it have a GPS receiver built-in? Like the SIRFStar III ? Could someone please explain the difference between the GPS and the A-GPS in regard to this specific phone? In other words, can this phone work as a GPS navigation device out-of-the-box, without relying on being connected on a WiFi network? Let's say you travel to a country in Europe, you don't have access to WiFi; how GPS will function on 614c? I would appreciate any help, especially from peope who already have this phone. Thank you so much. Christos R. This post has been edited by christosr: Mar 9 2008, 08:24 |
