Are you lookign for bugs that we all have? Or just wanting to compare people's experiences?

1 - totally - if nothing else can be fixed... fix this
2 & 3 - 'fixed' by WOW SRS HD ?? (certainly my volumes are acceptable, i did change somethign in the reg tho...)
4 - yeah & how does the BT stay on past the 20% (if it was already in operation) but the wifi doesn't
5 - this really should be turn off-able.. prob a coincidence, but when the screen switches off the call qual seems to drop..
6 - never tried this
7 - nor this (i use g maps for on the fly navigation)
8 - mine's ok....
9 - never had this... had some probs coming off standby b4 i installed SRS HD properly..
10 - 2 seconds for me - is that slow??
11 - not had this on any of the 3 wlan i connect too..
12 - never used video
13 - totally my work phone is hd2 & the camera on that is amazing, TG camera is embrassing

can i add

14 - i want to reject a call with sms msg
15 - i want to be rid all the orange shite that the phone is stuck with, orange plus & boot up screen etc
16 - i want a sys tray icon for everything, don't share 2 'G' symbols between GPS/2G/3G/HSDPA/GPRS etc
17 - strange bug, my file browser (ie change today screen click "browse" NOT file explorer) can't see my mem card
18 - win logo some times displayed on lock screen, sometimes not - tapping it does nothing !!


i'm sure i can think of more...

cheers

what srs wow cab works

if yours works, what did you edit in registry

ive tried them all, work for a while then just crash phone

we need a proped srs  wow TG01 specific cab, properly modded and stable!!

[adzman808]

the srs when you install 3 diff versions & restart after each install (gof from this site - from the srs thread)

when you say works for a while... i am up to 3 or 4 weeks with no probs (on old version phone would not come out of from sleep/lock screen mode) perhaps i have probs to come...

also i would say that you must install the 3 srs cabs as late as possible... ie if you rebuild your phone, not from a back up - install srs last in your process, install all other non-std apps 1st...

i can't imagine not having srs now, in fact i'm on brink of selling my ipod touch, as i haven't picked it up since i got the TG - which has turned out to be a great little music player... fairly robust & well equiped pda device & part time telephone

cheers

My key gripes are more hardware related:

NOT Toshiba
1. The limitation of currently being unable to charge at the same time as using audio out. To be fair, that is a design 'feature' of the uUSB standard rather than Toshiba  and seems pending availability of a generic accessory adapter to sit between any uUSB device, power and other devices.

Toshiba
2. Lack of a 3.5mm jack (which would have circumvented the above).
3. True audio Line-Out or even better than that, a digital output to drive an external DAC amp
4. Not having a stylus port
5. Daft location of the uSD Card slot so you can't get at it - should have been on the side or top so cards can be easily changed
6. Not having a few more physical buttons which can be mapped to suit user requirements
7. Physical location of the Power and Vol Up/Down on the device - they don't fall easily to the thumb when holding. Power should have been in the 'normal' place on the top and Vol top left side.  
8. Not having a proper cradle with docking connector built-in

BUT, having said all that, it is still IMHO the best piece of kit in it's field currently available with the following absolutely key features:

1. RESISTIVE screen !  How else can you use handwriting recognition ?
2. Large screen (I have waited years to find something to replace my trusty Toshiba e830 with 4" VGA - TG01 is slightly longer but narrower)
3. The processor
4. GPS which (in my experience) works extremly well (Garmin XT)
5. All the vast flexibility which we have to load whatever software we want and configure to heart's content......

Regards,

Kevin

TIP for 5,  you just need to doudle tap screen to activate it as i said on xda a message comes up and tells you this but phone would be at your ear by this point great thinking tosh.  ne way double tap is easier then power button. still stupid tho

HI YES I AGREE THEASE ARE A REALLY PAIN ISUESS . THE BEST WAY TO BEAT THE SOUND PROBLEM WITH MESSAGE,S OR RING TONE IS TO DOWNLOAD A REALLY LOUD ONE FROM ZEDG.NET ALL FREE OR GETJAR.COM ALL FREE.
GPS THE ONLY WAY AROUND THIS IS TO USE GOOGLEMAPS/LATITUDE BUT IT,S A HELL OF A DRAIN ON THE ALLREADY PITTIFULL BATTERY if using the gps if you use 3g network it,s more forgiving on the batterty
IN CALL VOLUME IM LOOKING INTO THIS WITH A TECY WHO THINKS HE CAN RESOLVE THIS .
