#59: Dopod c720w, a WM5 Landscape Smartphone
I have a keypad problem with my old XPhoneII. So, I decide to change it with another smartphone device, Dopod c720w. A GSM smartphone with 320x240 landscape screen, running on Windows Mobile 5 operating system. For us, who familiar with phone flashing, of course, there is a forum to discuss about upgrading its OS to the new WM6. I, personally, don’t want to migrate to WM6 for the time being. Usually, higher WM version, faster CPU speed is needed. If not, we will get a slower OS running in our phone.
Buy from the largets Indonesian community, kaskus with a good price (at least in my opinion, because I did search in the mall, and found no shop is selling this device, and there are some online adv with higher price). My first impression when the real device is coming into my hand is : slim and elegant, which is very different from the feeling that I got when I see it in the web.
And of course, just like my previous mobile phone, what I want to do in the first time is hacking (or tweaking) it. To make it possible, we must : ‘unlock’ the device, so we can modify (or create) registry values with no restriction using this Smartphone Registry Unlock software. If we want to modify the registry throught a script (very useful for mass modification), we can use this RAPIConfig software.
Bagi rekan pemakai smartphone, sewaktu menulis SMS, selagi kita berada di bagian TO, kemudian kita tekan tombol ENTER (Action), maka akan terdengar suara DING, yang terkadang cukup mengganggu.
Sebagai pengguna smartphone, Home Screen yang saat ini saya pakai mungkin termasuk kategori sangat standard, sebab saya memang bukan termasuk orang yang suka homescreen atau tampilan yang bergambar-gambar, penuh pernak-pernik :) … PC yang saya pake’ pun, menggunakan setelan Windows XP Classic, yang mirip kayak Windows 98 itu :)
