INMHO I do not think that this phone, the HTC HD, will obsoleted soon. The most I read in others forums the most I think that still the HTC HD is on the TOP. The capacitive screen seems better than the one of LEO or HTC HD2, at least for use most application or write an sms. In addition, I have seen this evening in the developers and hacking forum that a multi-touch driver has been released for our HTC HD, so we can have the best of both worlds. Even, the Android runs quite smooth in the HTC HD so you can switch between windows and Android in less than 2 minutes. I am not thinking in change my phone in this moment, I quite satisfied, but If I had not one, I will take the advantage of the new release of the LEO to get a very cheap HTC HD in the second hand market.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] smeddy:
If HTC had sorted out the Qualcomm driver situation I'd be all over the HD2, but I'm thinking I'll skip this generation, just not enough of an upgrade for me at the moment...

HD is a great phone

Well, I have mine for about 3 months now.. ans I could have got many other phones.. but I agree with the superlatives you mentioned. skinny too, where most phones are a quarter brick in the pants.. I had to help a colleague with his Kaiser on a WM6.1 and use a stylus , only to realize and appriciate the touch HD.. Is it, eventually, become obsolete? yes, but at least not until 2011.. if I won't break it by then (flashing, or screen cracking it) I will keep it for a longer time. It simply suits my need. I am sure there will be other phoned, but until there is touch HD2 around, working in 3G US, I will keep it, flash it, test it and hope there will be enough chefs on this thread :rolleyes:

Thank you folks for the sleepless nights you give me.. my wife is sure I have an affair, or I am into cyber sex.. :) until it does not stop- I will stay with the HD..

Hi BigE! Long time no speak! :D

Good to find you in here!! I need your help...

AS you probably remember, I am a Trinity user. With MSkip's ProPlus Ultimate 3.5 QVGA 110209 installed, I am basically at peace. It's perfect for my needs.

BUT...

Recently, I've been tempted to buy a Touch HD, disable the TouchFlo and install MSkip's ProPlus Ultimate 3.5. Is it worth it?

The bigger screen, the more powerful processor, etc, etc... Will I really notice the difference if I just use Spb MS3.5?

I know you're not a massive fan of Spb MS3.5... I use it purely as I need an appointment list on my Today Page. That's why I don't use Manila. That's why as far as I can see I would not be happy with the TouchFlo 3D on the Touch HD. Such a shame it's missing!

I look forward to your advice. Maybe you'll convince me to leave Trinity!?

Mattster.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] microgeniusz80:
personally, i feel that Touch HD is the best phone ever. Buying a Touch HD2 just to get a slightly larger screen, and slightly increased performance by paying extra few hundreds dollar is an overkill.

with Touch HD, you can do almost everything that can be done using other mobile phones.

Mattster, in my opinion, buying a touch HD is really worth it. during your work hours you can switch on the spb mobile shell, and when you're with friends or on a holiday you can switch it back to touchflo 3d within a minute. plus, you can enjoy the large HD screen to watch movies while you're waiting for someone, or to browse the internet without the need of a stylus.

weigh the pros and cons before you make a decision. all the best.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Mattster_spv:
Hi Microgeniusz80,

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I have some cash to buy a used Touch HD, I just need convincing to spend it!!! :D

As my Trinity has much less memory than the Touch HD, there is always a struggle to flash custom ROMS in the attempt to get more free RAM than in a stock ROM.

Am I right in thinking that the Touch HD has more than enough memory to handle SPB MS3.5, so I won't out of necessity have to flash cooked ROMS?

I imagine at first I will stick with the stock ROM if this is the case, as I fancy a rest from flashing (for a while anyway!)

Mattster.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] microgeniusz80:
The Touch HD has ample of RAM.... i've been using spb mobile shell3.5 + MSKIP proplus in my HTC Touch Cruise (P3650)... it is smooth... but hangs when there's several programs running behind. i solve the lack of RAM problem by freeing up RAM using some free utilities. For Touch HD, which i installed SPB, the experience is totally different compared to my previous pda. the screen is larger...and thus i can put a lot of widgets. i dedicated 1 page only for my appointments and another for tasks. there is a feeling of satisfaction when i'm able to see all my appointments and tasks nicely arranged at a glance. As the RAM is ample i didnt experience any lag when i ran few programs behind

while using the 3d carousel.

to feel it for yourself and to decide, i think that you should test it on your friends blackstones and see whether this is what you wanted.

regards,

Hi,

can you modify the theme in order to include the Microsoft Bootup Screen (the 3rd bootup screen) ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] maddie:
i've installed the v1.3, but there's a problem for me..

in the animated stage (self-diagnose stage), the animation seems to be not finished and the booting sound also, then it jumped to Starting Windows... screen.

any solutions?

EDIT: I'm using Duttys Leo R6
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] muntos:
Exactly same situation here (Diamond 2 , Dutty R5), I believe that the animation don't finish because the phone is booting faster than others... what I would love is to have also this theme for Windows boot.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] muntos:
Also the sound in ver 1.3 is still to loud, can be done something in this direction :) ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] slimest:
Nice bootscreen. But during boot I can see the animated "bios" screen, then Windows 7 screen appears for about half a second, then "bios" screen again. Tried ver. 1 and 1.1
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Svegetto:
does this increase the overall boot-up time of the hd? Or does it remain unchanged? though nice work either way!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Kike24:
Same here... the Windows 7 screen just pops-up in between the boot screen and then goes back to Bios boot... Very nice animation tought!!, once you fix this small glich, I will place it back in my HD =)

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Swarvey:
Same problem here, I cook my own 6.5 28014 ROM tho, am thinking it could be related to the HTC animation... does the Dutty ROM in question have the standard HTC animation in by default? last time I cooked (about 20mins ago) i left the animation out, then installed this as a CAB, result is it skipped the initial BIOS emulated animation, cooking again with HTC animation cooked in, will let you know if it changes anything

PROBLEM SOLVED: After cooking in the HTC Animation, then installing this Boot Package as a CAB, it is completely working- THANKS!!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] beast0898:
I assume from your description that the battery is completely dead?

The led will blink red if there is not enough charge to power on the device.

If the battery is this dead, the device will not charge it.

You will need to use a seperate charger to charge the battery enough for the bootloader to initialise.

The device can only charge your battery if it has a small amount of charge already.

It can not charge a completely drained battery.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ade333:
:confused:

Hoping someone might be able to help me here..

Within an hour of being taking off the charger (and confirming it was 100% at that time) my battery life is down to 80%.

What's happened so far is:

1) alarm went off (set to ring only - no vibrate)

2) recieved 2 emails on yahoo (set to check every 60 mins)

3) received 1 push email through exchange/active sync

4) 1 calendar appt reminder.

The screen has probably only come on 3 times for no more than 10 seconds each time. My brightness is set to the 2nd lowest level possible. My ringer is on the highest.

Here are the apps I have installed. I have not "launched" any of these today.

.net 3.5

Easy Shares

Google Maps

Microsoft My Phone - (set to sync once at 3am & was on charger then)

Mobil manager for netflix

S2U2

Waze (another GPS app)

Phone is about 4 weeks old.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] kern417:
download HD Tweak and set up data disconnect after to 1 minute. I am almost positive your data is staying on after downloading email because i had the same problem with my Touch Pro. Keeping the data session open is a huge battery drain
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Aspesi4:
My battery life is terrible too! I charge it fully throughout the night and the phone typically dies by the time I get home from work at 6PM or so. I barely use it at work. Never talk on it. The occasional text message. But by the end of the day the phones dead. I have no idea why. I know for some odd reason by phone will not automatically go into sleep mode. It should, but doesn't. Not sure if that kills the battery even though I manually push the sleep mode button each time.

I set up the HD Tweak software. We'll see if this helps. Does it work for the Touch Pro 2 also?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jaas666:
Any of you guys using a case with a magnet on it by any chance?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sumflipnol:
Possible explanation...

Just curious, did you charge the phone while it was on? If so, I've found it a problem. I once charged my phone while it was on, and I took it off after about 2 hours (the green LED indicator probably showed up an hour before I took it off). I checked the battery meter and it registered at 89%! I found out that there's a flaw in the way the found charges. Once the LED turns green for a full charge, the charger cuts off, but (I think what I'm about to say might be true) the phone thinks it's running something as it charges, thus causing the rapid battery drop.

Since then, I stopped charging my phone while it was on. I now turn off the phone and then charge it. I can last a whole day with about 45 minutes total on the Internet, and my battery would go to about 60+%.

However, as jaas666 pointed out, are you putting your phone near a magnet? The magnet tricks the phone into thinking the stylus/keyboard is being pulled out, thus causing it to wake up, which will drain your battery.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] butler360:
Have you tried a task manager to see if a program is running when it's not supposed to?

http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm

I had terrible battery life and found two issues. One program was always taking up around 10% CPU usage (VZO video chat software). Also found that Google Sync, set up through ActiveSync, was having trouble. I'd open ActiveSync and find it in a synching loop. For me the solution was to untick "Tasks" in the sync menu. Since then, battery life has been great.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] kern417:
HD Tweak works fine on mine, I've also heard of some people using Diamond Tweak. I mostly text all day maybe some internet but I have gone a day and a half without charging and even then my battery had only gotten to ~20% so I think with a few changes it could be fixed. I'd check out some of the Tweaks threads here and at PPCgeeks for registry edits u can do to save the battery too
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cbreze:
I had those issues with my 2000mAh battery on my sprint tp1. With my verizon tp2 my battery life is fantastic. I use the crap out of it all day also. Was wondering if the bad battery life is happening mostly with sprint users.

I have my active sync connected at all times for wireless email calendar task syncing. I charge with the phone on all nite long and the battery drains only slowly throughout the day. Less than 50% today. It is on 24/7 I never shut it down unless I'm soft resetting due to a file or app install. I use my ms3.5 task manager to keep stuff closed after using. I always put it to sleep mode by the button when I'm done with it. My screen is set to brightest and stays on 2 min. before sleep mode engages unless I manually do it.

I'm sorry to hear your battery issues, my tp1 with sprint was really hard on battery juice. I found it would struggle to find a signal alot, one reason I switched to vzw.

Hope you figure it out.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] LordLugard:
Sad to say that my less than 4 days old Sprint TP2 is disappointing to say the least in battery life and all around usability. Now i'm coming from a Treo Pro and so used to one handed operations and such. But i digress...

Battery life on this beast is sad, really sad. Someone alluded to Gmail Exchange ActiveSync as a potential battery drain so i might look into that. Basically i'm gonna hard rest and start from scratch applying less tweaks. Basically i find TF3D tedious really..takes too many steps just to do some basic things. I turned it off and managed better a bit but i just might go back to my Treo Pro and sell this thing.. :mad:
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mt2020:
My battery "appears" to drop quickly, but actually hangs in there quite nicely. My old phone only showed me 20% increments, so going to 1% makes it very noticable.

I ran cleanup first thing, then went back and customized.

I use Activesync in push mode (7 days per week 8am - 9pm), have it checking Hotmail, stocks, weather every 30 minutes. BT is on, Data on, WiFi off. I even went back and turned auto screen back on as I couldn't read cleanups default change in the sunlight.

Gets turned on at 7am, and at 10 pm I'm ussually 30-40%. Medium user - 40 minutes phone use daily, 1-2 hours total IE time, ALOT of email checking, hardly any SMS.

I do use a magnetic holster too. S2U2 fixed that issue.

Biggest drain I noticed is screen. If I turn off auto and go back to CleanUp default, I can get through almost 2 full days if I turn it off around 11pm, and back on 7am.

And as far as battery total use, my older phones always turned themselves off at about 15%. THIS THING WARNS ME AT ABOUT 4% and turns off 2-3%! That's alot of extra battery use.

There is a company making a 1750a battery that will fit in stock case.
