Bit of good new about Pinphone.

Popped the back cover off, the Pinphone now uses the M9 3.7V 2000 mAh battery. I know the older versions used 1100 mAh battery. So if you're considering buying Pinphone but was worried about battery life. That problem has been addressed. Now if we can get alot of the other problems worked out.
I still have as of yet to get the internet and MMS working. But I'm hopeful.
Also for information sake my Pinphone's motherboard Version 2.2.1

 

that's very good news! So with this new battery how long can it last?

 

That's the exact same motherboard as my phone has.
Hey Colonel, any way to change how long the phone searches for Cell signal. When I boot my phone, it only searches for signal about 20 seconds and then just quits. I noticed if the phone does not find signal upon first boot and times out. It will not find signal even if I move into a high signal area unless I reboot the phone. I live in a weak signal area, my other phones will find signal but this one times out too quickly. Is there a setting inside the engineering or factory mode settings to make the phone search for a longer period of time before timeout? Thanks Colonel.

 

Here is the options my phone has, \settings\general\sim network setup\prefered mode\gsm or wifi prefered. That's all the options mine has as for network selection is concerned.

 

Thanks Colonel. What a strange operating system. Reminds me of those Chinese forums. I like Windows Mobile much better.
I finally managed to get internet and MMS working using AT&T EDGE network. But since there are no native apps for the MTK/Nucleus OS and the only apps that do work (sometimes) are Java based. I have decide to call it quits with this phone.
This phone is all hype and little substance. Just because it has a capacitive touch doesn't make it better. Honestly after using the capacitive touch for a while, I prefer the old resistive touch much better. The use of a stylus allows for more accurate touch experience. I'm going to give this phone to my brother for a birthday present.

 

One of the phone's that I had considered buying before my purchase of Pinphone, was the Blackstorm or Blackgrape. How did the Blackgrape work for you. Good phone? Guess the reason I didn't buy either was the screen size. I wanted 3.5 screen. Need the bigger screen since the older I get the harder it is to see small fonts.

 

Dude, So you're Schlump. I've watch several of your videos on Youtube. Cool to finally meet you. You do good videos. Has FCT honored their end of the bargain on your videos? I was thinking of making one, to get in on the deal.
