Questions

• Is the HTC Mogul discontinued after a 6 month run? Rumor has it some of the bugs in the mogul are unfixable via firmware and the unit is to be discontinued.
• Is HTC working on a fix for the Bluetooth issues on the Sprint Mogul? This phone has been out for 3 months - still no fix mentioned on their site - I guess they don't care!

Answer: There is a new firmware that reduces how choppy your voice is to the other party - but it randomly shuts off the BT!

• It is widely rumored that this phone has a GPS chip that has been disabled. Will there be a hack or workaround to enable GPS capabilities?

Answer: Not likely, it is AGPS which requires a connected call to get data location.
Alternative Answer: The chip on-board is reported to support multi-mode GPS [satellites only, towers only, or hybrid, essentially]. The question boils down to which features the vendors will disable in ROM. With the XV6700, for example, Verizon completely disabled all on-board GPS except E911.

• Will an upgrade to Windows Mobile 6 become available?

Answer: The Sprint version comes standard with WM6. Other carrier adoption of WM6 is at the sole descretion of the carrier. Since the Sprint version was offered with WM6, HTC supports it. However if you call HTC tech support they will tell you that they only fully support WM5
Answer: Available now for Telus P4000

• Is there a theme-creating application that is compatible with this phone?
• What is the largest capacity microSD card that can be used? 2GB? 4GB?

Answer: 4GB

• When will this phone be available to US customers?
