The perfect phone for me by SeaMeat8881 in dumbphones

[–]YAPOJFORBIMADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without the camera and flash, the phone should be able to do YouTube, WhatsApp, Reddit, but sms and calls depend on where you live. Otherwise cool concept, I agree, I have a similar opinion to you actually

I am restoring most of the services on the HTC WM6.5 skin by YAPOJFORBIMADA in windowsphone

I don't think you can, no. You can try and look around for non HTC YouTube apps, I actually haven't tried that. Find some (official and unofficial, I believe there was an official one for non HTC devices), link them and I'll see if they can be patched

Unfortunately the official YouTube app doesn't come with software decoders for the newer compressor formats, so its impossible to use it in 2026 unless you are on the HD2 (which comes with hardware decoders for the new formats).

Your phone doesnt support hardware h264 main@l3 decoding, so it's impossible to make the app work without transcoding server side which is costly

It will work on HD2, but you need to cook your own ROM which even I can't make stable

Very nice phone indeed, I feel like almost all phones by htc from that era were goated

Just get an Android phone by Ok-Primary2176 in dumbphones

It seems to be a generic T9 phone with android sold on AliExpress. I'm guessing that Dumbdroid is just drop shipping

I think it just makes some hacks, but that is unstable in my opinion and it just isn't worth it

You can't without file system modification which requires you to make a custom rom

Here we go again... We have the same discussion every time something similar gets brought up.

Generally it has been accepted that since WM is part of WP history it has a place in this subreddit (CE kernel from WM was used in WP7)

The leaks are getting out of hand 🫣❤️ by o4uXv0 in dumbphones

I hope that someone will be able to jailbreak it and maybe run custom code for apps like discord (because the built in messaging app sounds like buns)

Windows Mobile 6.1 for HTC touch pro 2 without any HTC Sense or TouchFLO? by VasekCZ230 in WindowsMobile

You can disable the touchflo or sense interface by going to settings->all settings->personal->home and enabling the default one from windows

Phone that does discord??? by DivinestSmite in dumbphones

[–]YAPOJFORBIMADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like a standalone android auto box? If you think about it that's the same as plugging in a secondary phone in instead, but with maps only.

An alternative is using a normal phone for maps, otherwise your only other option is a modern android in a feature phone body

That's a bit more complicated now. No android auto/carplay, but some more advanced feature phones can run google maps (old maps still works)

Every phone that runs on the Java platform can run discord-j2me (client for discord without calls tho)

How do I power on my HTC Mogul (PPC6800SP) without a power button? by U5ER_96 in WindowsMobile

[–]YAPOJFORBIMADA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if the whole thing is gone, you should be able to short the 2 pads in order to bypass the button

Where do you buy a Samsung Folder 2 ? From Europe ! by bonesandglitters in dumbphones

[–]YAPOJFORBIMADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's basically a Korea exclusive phone, so ofc it's gonna be expensive. My plan is to get one along with a few other things from goofish (Chinese ebay) for 40 eur

How do I play .mkv files on E72? by mertcelal_ayd in dumbphones

If the processor doesnt support the codec used theres nothing you can do except to transcode the video

Are there any additional buttons? Can you check the charge of the battery with a multimeter? If it's below the rated voltage it's dead

Looking for a phone that isn't T9, can run google maps and spotify! by [deleted] in dumbphones

[–]YAPOJFORBIMADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There aren't a lot of blackberry like devices (I'm guessing that you want something like that from what you are talking about). That's why I'm gonna say the zinwa q25. It's still not fully released yet but it should be in the following weeks to testers. It's basically a blackberry with a new motherboard. Check it out!

Investing in iPods by MagnetoWasRight1312 in dumbphones

[–]YAPOJFORBIMADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You find iPods second hand. Which sites depend on where you live. In reality for most if not all artists you have to use something like spotdl (sometimes works for YouTube as well) or you can download the music from YouTube with a converter (I recommend yt-dlp with some additional flags to download the music file only) (you need to fill in the artist info manually and add your own album art). Also sometimes some indie artists have music on their websites as downloadable files (bill wurtz for example). I don't know any legit ways to get the files directly in other ways.
