Guest sc0user_75 Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Does anyone know if the Vario III will come with the same black theme today screen as the HTC version? I know that some operators tend to put their own versions of themes in, replacing the original themes. If this is the case, would it be possible to "de-brand" the t-mobile phone to have the HTC version of the software/firmware? A bit like on the Nokia N95's!

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Only the HTC version will have that HTC theme. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 That said, a debrander to return to the default winmo look should be straightforward! P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WoD Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I'll definitely be trying to de-brand and install the default HTC software if I get an MDA Vario III and not an HTC Kaiser. Too bad the phone itself can't be de-branded though; what goes through T-Mobile marketing's head when they slap neon pink all over something that's supposed to be a serious business device! ... okay so it's not that bad, but the T-Mobile software... ugh! It should be easy to do without changing firmware, though. A simple uninstallation of unwanted T-Mobile apps, a replacement Today theme and some Today plugins to garnish. Sorted!

Guest sc0user_75 Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Guys, seriously, t-mobile aren't REALLY going to have all the pink stuff on the handset, are they??? Lets think about this logically - Vario III will prmarily be aimed at the business market (even though us techno geeks will buy 1 too ;) ) Now, what business dude will look right walking into a high power meeting with a pink and baby blue phone!!! Come on T-Mobile, get someone with some common sense when it comes to sytling!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lozzd Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hmm I was wondering about this. I'm currently having a hard time deciding between a very good call plan on a network I'm happy with and a cheap upgrade (o2) but really lousy data or a new contract with t-mobile with a slightly poorer plan (no 08xx numbers included in plan!) but excellent data (unlimited! ahh!) but a more expensive phone with branding (eww!). If the device doesn't look too hideous (hmm) and I can get rid of the t-mobile rom and put the HTC default one on there (is that possible?) I might be more tempted. So more responses please!
