Guest Lew247 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/pay-as-you-...ulse-mini-pink/ Next dirt cheap phone maybe? What's the chance of people doing roms for this one? I wouldn't want it myself but it's a dead cheap android phone for kids
Guest heavyduty00 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) wow, do you know what the processor is? and is it 1.6 or 2.1 android? edit: nevermind it is 2.1 android and 600mhz Edited April 8, 2011 by heavyduty00
Guest Phoenix Silver Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 2.1 eclair arm 11 600 mhz proc just show the review here : review i want a pink one :)
Guest heavyduty00 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 theres a section here with roms on http://android.modaco.com/category/432/t-m...ini-modaco-com/ and xda i think
Guest Michealtbh Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Development seems decent for it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932605 Absolute bargain at that price, Id buy one for my girlfriend if she didnt have my Wildfire
Guest JimJam707 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 I would never buy a Huawei phone. They completely messed up the 2.1 update for the Pulse (Big one) giving it issues with losing texts.
Guest mickey megabyte Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 wow! :) ..and i thought our beloved blades were cheap. also surprised to see it only scoring 7.7 on reevoo - wtf do people expect for 20 quid?
Guest Ashenfall Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) wow! :) ..and i thought our beloved blades were cheap. also surprised to see it only scoring 7.7 on reevoo - wtf do people expect for 20 quid? It wasn't £20 when those people bought it. Edited April 8, 2011 by Ashenfall
Guest Azurren Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Shame its pink.. No silicone cases available for it either :) If I wasn't on contract then I may have picked one up
Guest xzyk Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 got one of these from t-mobile shop, in grey. They were selling for 29+10 pounds air time. Sold the 10pound voucher and unlocked it. Loaded one of the roms found on the pulse mini thread here at modaco and I have to admit it ain't half bad. It has GPS, wifi, 3g, Radio and all the other goodies. Someone even says the managed to get a 2.2 Froyo working on it but apparently not the wifi side. Development seems to have stopped on it. One of the differences i notices between it and my SF is memory usually is down to 35MBs, could do with a TPT and reparitioning, or even just a repartition, if possible. Most of the review you see were done when it came out selling for 79 pounds so it was not such a great deal back then. Defiinetly worth 19quid, in my opinion, especially for noobs wanting to dabble in Android.
Guest pinkstuff Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Yeah its a good phone the memory is much better than on the bigger PULSE i have both and the Pulse mini is way better than the pulse what with radio and all - the ROM i used was TEAPOT rom and it was very good, as a back up phone you cant go wrong, dont listen to anyone who says it is rubbish - for 20 quid what the heck go play with android..
Guest admanirv Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) Good spot mate. I used to have one, for £20 its a steal for a girlfriend or lady etc. Really needs a custom rom put on, but the camera and focus is shocklingly bad, even worse than the blades and the flash is almost useless when focussing.

Guest ezablade Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Damn... son wants a Blade, but I don't fancy giving him a £99 phone (cheap for an adult, too much for a kid), this would've been perfect... any colour except pink

Guest wbaw Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 £5 cashback with quidco too, just a shame it's pink.
Guest isambard Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 Damn... son wants a Blade, but I don't fancy giving him a £99 phone (cheap for an adult, too much for a kid), this would've been perfect... any colour except pink tell him to get in touch with his feminine side :) he can always repaint it or cover it in stickers...
Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 I certainly Know of someone painting their phone. Shame they did it with poster paint though...
Guest curl66 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 i just bought one to play with :) how did you order it ? do they ship to switzerland ?
Guest isambard Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 how did you order it ? do they ship to switzerland ? i ordered it online to deliver to a friend in the UK. they will send it to me when they receive it.
Guest MrsGeek Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 What a bargained :. Maybe ill get one for my mum instead of giving her my Nokia.
Guest ndubz Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 :) can anyone certify that this phone got wifi? if so..then WOW lol
Guest Ron=) Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 (edited) :) can anyone certify that this phone got wifi? if so..then WOW lol Yes it does It also has the same CPU/GPU as the blade It also has an LED Camera Flash Too bad it feels cheap and plasticky, the screen is resistive, it's ugly, aweful resolution, has no stable 2.2/2.3 Roms and it's PINK! But hey, what can you expect for 30 pounds! =) Edited April 10, 2011 by Ron=)
Guest Roph Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 Any comments as to the quality of the resistive screen? Some can be pretty good (Nokia N9x phones), but some are just terrible; the ZTE Racer comes to mind.
