4winmobile.com have just published a mega review of the O2 HTC HD2, it is an excellent read, even if I do say so myself. ;)

Find it HERE :)
[HD2 General] 20mihalko:
thanks :) i`m going to read that :)
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
Not if I do first :)

OT> Where can I build a sig like that?
[HD2 General] DMAND:
Great write up by 4winmobile

Arrrrrrrrrrgh I still cant believe O2 are going to launch this phone after vodaphone when all the rumours were that O2 was getting it first.

Delay after delay and for what a crappy O2 wallpaper, serriously why bother branding it at all as it removes the animated weather and will just be swapped ASAP for the default theme.
[HD2 General] Noam23:
Please pay attention that in the review they mention that they got the phone with a screen protector. This means that HTC do believe you need to use a screen protector (otherwise why put it in the box). He does say at the end that even without the screen protector the screen remained scratch-free after the several weeks of review, but still...
[HD2 General] Tekguru:
If you want to ask about the delay in the review thread I'll answer why :)

The contents of what was supplied have now been updated...... we were notr supplied with a screen protector but it listed it on the items that are scheduled to be included.

For the review we received an advance bundle without a lot of the items that will be supplied.
[HD2 General] AndyNic:
Awsome writeup mate thanks. Still don,t see why O2 are taking so long.
[HD2 General] DMAND:
Question asked in reviw thread, almost forgot I registered there ages ago been over a year since :p
[HD2 General] Tekguru:
And your questions are now answered :)
[HD2 General] DMAND:
Cheers :) Thanks for the replys
[HD2 General] galaxys:
Great review by 4winmobile! I need to get this puppy in the States with 3G :mad:
[HD2 General] boz:
Glad you like the review, it shouldn't be too long before the HD2 is released in the USA, it will be worth the wait! :)
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Great review, but not without glitches. ;)

The 3.5mm jack on the bottom is not a drawback, it's a great design decision. When you put your phone in your pocket, you put it exactly "upside down". That's because if your hand has the same design as most people's hands do, you'll pull it out and can start talking with the speaker up and microphone down, without turning it.

Now, I admit there may be some peculiar pouches etc. where the "normal" way of putting the device in doesn't work, and these pouches may be attractive to some people, and I will even admit that this is a valid concern, but at best this means that the jack placement isn't something that can be "good" or "bad" for everyone. The review is too categorical in this respect.
[HD2 General] AndyNic:
I would prefer it Jack on the bottom so when its muonted in my car I can sit the jack from my radio into it easyer.
[HD2 General] DMAND:
Gotta agree, jack on bottom makes more sense pocket and car cradle wise
[HD2 General] boz:
I can see the logic in what you're saying and have to agree. :)
[HD2 General] shirreer:
I had the same sentiment about this particular critique.
[HD2 General] Tekguru:
Each to his own ideal I guess :)

For me it''s logical to put the machine in a pouch the right side up as that way as I insert fingers to draw it out they'd not be in possible conflict with the button area when the machine was gripped.

As an ex-ergonomic engineer I'd say that good engineering practice would place the headset jack on the top.

I hate to say it but if we look at well received design models like the iPhone - where is the jack - on the top.....

Anyway if you wish to continue the debate please do it in the review thread :) You may get more feedback there!

hi dear people help me out before i get mad

its been 6 days i am reading the posts and watching videos i had a perfected spl with android 1.6 details as follows

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP10000)

CPL-10

RADIO-2.22.19.26I

i manged to downgrade it by creating a gold card using Amon_Ra method here:

and now i have

SAPPHIRE EVT1 32B SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP20000)

CPLD-10

RADIO-3.22.20.17

Why does it say H now while my boards is 32B it should be G

now when i use the flash recovery tool i says phone is 32A while its 32B so flashes the recovery but with i click home and power the screen stucks at HTC MAGIC boot screen

what do i have to do now???

plz help i am just lost into to many things
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sitimber:
is your radio not 32a radio ???

from a sig

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2005 (SAPP50000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
Did you download and flash the correct Amon_Ra recovery image? There are 2, one is G and other is H, look at the link/file you downloaded.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rydr1:
Follow directions closely. There are 2 different versions of the sapphire 32A or 32B. always make sure you use the right stuff that you are trying to download for.

There is also no need to create a goldcard any more for the perfected SPL. Look up the Sapphire WIKI that is stickied and gather the important information.

Then follow the directions in this link: this worked perfectly for me.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=570659

I also came across other threads that indicate how to do this much simpler way, but this is the only one I can vouch for since I have tried it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
just download the 32B radio and recovery image, then go into fastboot and do this

fastboot flash radio radio.img

fastboot erase system -w

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RAv1.2.3G.img
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Yes, do this. This should fix you right up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saqibs:
loads of thanks guys but i messed up the recovery i flashed was of H build and ROM i was trying to load was of 32B i did the flashing and now cannot go forth the HTC MAGIC logo i am stuck there

but i can go to the recovery and also can go to the fastboot and Hboot menu wat to do now
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saqibs:
@Breakthecycle

@tazz

how to do that fastboot thing i am new to all this i was a winmo user and this is my first android can u guys give me a link or instruct me on how to do that
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saqibs:
also tell which recovery image is good

ra-magic-1.2.3

or ra-dream-1.2.3

or ra-dream-1.2.3._bk mod_6
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sitimber:
read here and download from here

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] marc_hav:
You should always use the 32B stuff (recovery, ROM's, etc.)

Look at my signature....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] JackMagic:
Lol. If you actually read the thread you "followed", would would have noticed Amon_RA's comment later on which says..

"[...] if you're using a 32B you just have to flash a 32B radio after (see how-to root mytouch thread for more info on that)."

As already stated, you need to flash back to a 32B radio and the fastboot command(s) were posted on Page 1. If you don't know how to use fastboot then you need to do more reading before attempting anything like this - you will need the Android SDK from their website.

Ofc flashing your radio can brick your phone if dont wrong, so I'd advise you do some reading up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saqibs:
okay bro i got it and also got the radio from htc websote also have the Adroid SDK

now is there any thread you recommend on how to do so or that can help where to start and what steps to take
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zeotrope:
dont make me angry.... you.... wouldnt like me when im angry
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] JackMagic:
I'm not sure if the radio img on the HTC Dev site is suitable - I mean I guess so, but I don't know much about radio flashing so am not 100%.

Check the stickies for links, or search for guides on fastboot/using adb.

Most useful post of the day award *clap*
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saqibs:
okay will do that i just messed up things thought they were quiet easy but they are turning out to be . . . . .. . . . .. .

i did this all for getting good UI like hero or caynogen but now the charm is dead its not my type of thing

all i want is simple HTC Magic with adroid 1.6

dats all
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] JackMagic:
Lol, then you needn't have downgraded in the first place. But anyway..

I'd advise sorting out your radio.img first (maybe the one from the HTC Dev ION site, but as I say I'm not sure), flashing an engineering SPL (now you don't have a perfect SPL anymore, this is a relatively straightforward procedure) and then flashing the Google ION official 1.6 ROM (unmodified ROM but you can gain root access and it's just normal 1.6).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sitimber:
TO SORT IT READ THE LINK I PROVIDED OR THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS POST

sorry about caps missus been on pc
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rydr1:
LOL!

Very good point.:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] the1gladiator:
If you want a Hero Rom, hit me up. I'm a noob and thought I bricked my device. I'll walk you through it.

RA 1.2.3G, Latest SPL, and Qtek Rom1.8 along with BFS300B is all you need. Takes 15 minutes to have a blazing fast machine on your hand

hit me on gmail. ebongygladiator@gmail.com and i'll walk you through it
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rydr1:
I have had nothing but bad luck with hero roms. I have tried 4 different ones and always disliked the way they would hang up and then crawl when I wanted to do something. Most likely I never set them up right. dont know :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] the1gladiator:
QTEK is WICKED....The key is you MUST do a wipe of the data. I'm not even using the "vaunted" Class 6 SD card yet. still using a MicroSD card i picked up at Walmart after i lost my original card that came with the mytouch 3g.

Step 1. you must gain root access and load a recovery image. I like Amon RA 1.2.3 because you can format and partition from the Recovery Console

Step 2: From recovery console do a WIPE Data/Factory Reset and THEN do a Partition Fat32/EXT2/Swap

Step 3: Enable USB and drag the Qtek Hero Rom over to your SD card

Step 4: Disable USB

Step 5: Choose Zip option from recovery console. Select Qtek, wait 3 minutes and then its finished Reboot

Step 6: If u use Qtek 1.8 just hit skip on everythign because the APN for your Internet is all messed up by default. Let the phone load to the homescreen.

Step 7. Reboot into Recovery console for the last time, apply BFS300B file system patch. takes 30 seconds

Step 8. Reboot phone

step 9. Go into settings and load APN settings for your carrier if its not tmobile

step 10. ENJOY
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] antny:
Can someone please help me with this i dont know whats wrong. I enabled the use gps option and thats usually all it takes but not this time. Ive had the tilt 2 for about 3 weeks and have been able to use this application about 2 times. Can someone plllleaaassee help me out wiht this i really like google maps and wanna stick with it but if i have to move on i will regrettably. Thanks in advance

@/\/T
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
Need more details. Do you have a clear view of the sky? Has your geographic location changed drastically since you last use GPS. These factors can result in a slower lock. How long have you waited of a lock?

Try a soft reset. My Tilt 2 has been consistently great with GPS lock. But my old Tilt sometimes had to be reset in order to see the satellites.

Also, try updating the QuickGPS data in Start>Tools>QuickGPS. This may help get a faster lock.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Scrtcwlvl:
As redpoint said, use QuickGPS.

Also, is this with a custom rom? IE not the stock ATT Rom?

If so, then you will need to setup the ATT aGPS settings.

http://blownfuze.org/files/At0mAng _ATT_aGPS_Fix.cab

Download and install that cab, then with Advanced Config, under GPS enable aGPS.

Even if you have the stock rom, if you use tools like WVGATweak or Rhodium Config, it can mess up the aGPS settings if you mess with gps settings at all. So it is good to install the aGPS settings and renable aGPS.

After all this, soft reset and try it out.

If that doesn't help, you may wish to increase your poll interval, but that is doubtful.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Deleted member 863777:
I had one of the cheapo rubberized plastic shells for my TP2, and it prevented a quick GPS fix, it would sit for a very long time without connecting.

After I've moved on to a full body invisible shield, I again have a satellite fix in almost no time.

o wow i havent looked a this in a while thanks alot ill give it all a try
[HD2 General] dbryan:
Hi all

Has anybody ordered from mobilephonesdirect? if so have you received a despatched notifiaction, been tracking my order all day and still says 'pending stock'
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
same here...received email saying that they have it in stock, but not email about dispatching it.

anyway I'm hoping that postman will wake me up in the morning with parcel in his hand :)

I preordered 9th of November....
[HD2 General] dbryan:
i'm hoping the same, money has been taken from my account but i would expect to have received notification if it had been sent :rolleyes:

I'm thinking it will arrive on Monday :(
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
Yeah, I've spoke to them, set of w@nkers....

They told me all orders would be dispatched today. When I rang today, they said only Vodafone orders were processed and T-Mobile orders would be tomorrow. So if you're on T-Mobile its Monday, Vodafone, its tomorrow
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
when did you pre-order it???

:( I'm T-mobile :(
[HD2 General] mikejasonsmith:
I ordered on TMOB...do you think we may get lucky and get it Saturday??? :)
[HD2 General] dbryan:
T-Mobile :mad:
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
Royal mail does deliver on Saturday for extra £2.20 per item. I don't think mobilephonesdirect going to pay that :(
[HD2 General] mikejasonsmith:
im gutted...just my luck that i will get it after weekend....:mad:
[HD2 General] dbryan:
whats the betting they run out of stock now before completing the TMobile orders :eek:
[HD2 General] mikejasonsmith:
I dont even want to think of it....I will cancel if they do...
[HD2 General] owz206:
Mine has been dispatched today and mines on tmobile. I pre ordered on 20th october.
[HD2 General] Pantaloonie:
I pre-ordered on the 22nd Oct (T-Mo).

My order status changed to 'ready for despatch' this afternoon, and hasn't changed since.
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
I still have pending stock....anybody else with status of order "pending stock"?? I really hope they have enough stock for everybody. I'll give them ring tomorrow
[HD2 General] dbryan:
Still Pending Stock :-(
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
Still pending stock for me and I pre-ordered 20th October too. If its not here on Saturday I will just send it back to them. Special Delivery can arrive on Saturdays depending on the area. We seem to get Saturday special delivery so might be lucky.

I've been reading a lot of people though that aren't happy with the phones, wondering if its worth it after all this...
[HD2 General] rovex:
Im really pissed about this. I ordered ages ago i should get it first. Why should a Vodafone orderer get it before me?

Hopefully ill get it Saturday, if not ill ring them and it wont be a nice call..
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
You won't be on your own, I'll be doing the same and cancelling the order.
[HD2 General] owz206:
Mine's on Tmobile and it's been dispatched today, It's not just Vodafone orders that have gone through today.
[HD2 General] acostaf:
When did you ordered?
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
Hmm, strange. When I rang up and spoke to someone tonight on the phone they asked what network I ordered it on and then said, "Oh, no, T-Mobile orders will be dispatched tomorrow".

Seems strange! I'm gonna leave it as is and if it doesn't arrive Sat, gonna tell em to stick it.

Good luck, hope you get yours tomorrow.
[HD2 General] owz206:
Has anybody else had an order dispatched email from them, I'm not to confident that my phone will actually arrive tomorrow.
[HD2 General] acostaf:
I have order mine on 16th Oct on T-Mo and still waiting on stock, What is going on with this people should be some kind of FIFO nor LIFO
[HD2 General] owz206:
What does it say on your order status page.
[HD2 General] acostaf:
Pending Stock
[HD2 General] owz206:
Mine says order complete, strange they sent mine out before yours considering you ordered before me.
[HD2 General] acostaf:
Are you on Voda, T-MO ?
[HD2 General] owz206:
I'm on Tmobile
[HD2 General] acostaf:
That doesn't make any sense, I think they are using LIFO
[HD2 General] owz206:
Sorry to seem a bit thick, but what's LIFO
[HD2 General] movieman14:
mobilecrapdirect

im so annoyed at mobilesphonesdirect there just so useless they can't even do something as simple as putting something in a letter box. if the phone doesn't arrive by saturday i reckon we should all complain, and completely overload their phonelines:mad::mad::mad::mad:

order status: pending stock

order date: 26/10/2009

order number: 288000 - 289000

p.s on their website they changed the delivery info. to

"NOW IN-STOCK! - ORDER BEFORE 3PM FOR SUPERFAST NEXT DAY DELIVERY!"

so why can't they just send mine

useless b*****s
[HD2 General] acostaf:
Have you ordered two ?
[HD2 General] acostaf:
:) LIFO Last In First Out

But they should FIFO First in First out
[HD2 General] movieman14:
only ordered one just don't want to give exact order number
[HD2 General] acostaf:
well for sure they are really busy, between your order and mine are around 1200 orders within 10 days
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
not sure about them using LIFO. I ordered 9th of November and my order status is stil "pending stock". I want my phone sooooo much....why they doing this to us. :)

BTW there is definitely place on the market for company which actually does what it promises. I would rather pay slightly more for handset just to get better customer service and I'm sure it's not only me
[HD2 General] mr_Ray:
So? If you have enough demand and your warehouse operations are so slow that you can't keep up with the demand, it is wrong to still offer next day delivery on your website when you know full well that you can't.

It's wrong, it's lying, it's unethical, it's false advertising, and if they can't despatch by 3PM as their website currently says they can, they can go **** themselves and I'll be cancelling my order and going elsewhere. Mobilephones direct are fraudulent pieces of ****.
[HD2 General] Moandal:
Mobiles.co.uk have had to push their launch date back to 20th November, so I wonder whether mobilesdirect really do have any in stock just yet. Obviously they shouldn't be saying they do if they don't, but they wouldn't be the first...
[HD2 General] Nit3m4re:
I just rang them. I ordered mine yesterday after them cancelling my order which I made in October, just a few days ago accusing T-Mobile as being the reason. Anyway, I just rang them, the guy said that if it says pending stock.. well then they are 'pending stock' lol. He said there is no chance of my order going out today, I doubt they even have half as much stock to cover their orders, he said they are trying to push them out asap though. I still cancelled nevertheless lol :P
[HD2 General] acostaf:
They are now saying that we "may" (Hate that word) have the phone latest Tuesday or Wednesday next week then I ask him about the "NOW IN-STOCK! - ORDER BEFORE 3PM FOR SUPERFAST NEXT DAY DELIVERY!" and the guy said is not way people ordering today will be getting it tomorrow, so they are laying!!!!!!
[HD2 General] boz:
Has anyone actually received an HD2 from mobilephonesdirect yet? :confused:
[HD2 General] Pantaloonie:
Got my despatch email at 5am this morning.

I've been on their live help chat thing, they say I will get it tomorrow IF Royal Mail do Saturday deliveries in my area, and if not it will be monday.
[HD2 General] dbryan:
Live help isnt so live at the moment! still pending stock :-(
[HD2 General] acostaf:
I think they are doing something because live help is down and they are not taking the phone, so maybe they are really busy, ashamed or tired about so many querys on HD2 :)
[HD2 General] mr_Ray:
What helpful little scam artists they are!! Time to phone up and cancel.

Liars liars liars. Anyone looking to place an order with these cheats - DO NOT DO IT!!!!
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
I got off the chat with them today, cancelling my order.

They said it would be up to 48 hours before my phone was sent. I said they said that 48 hours ago so is it now 96? They didn't answer...

They then said it was 48 working hours. working hours!! I laughed so much I told them to shove it up their arse and cancelled. Buying from elsewhere as they are the biggest set of con artists ever. They did the exact same with TP2.

BEWARE, STAY AWAY FROM MOBILEPHONESDIRECT.CO.UK
[HD2 General] acostaf:
Is it another option? Any one know a better place to get it, just called Voda and they don't have single one in stock!!!
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
my has been dispatched...weeeeeeeeeey....I'm so excited.....hopefuly it'll come tomorrow ...if monday never mind .... I just want it so much and as soon as possible :D
[HD2 General] Nit3m4re:
I'm starting to think this really is one of those be patient things now lol. I gave mobilephonesdirect a chance, they let us all down pretty much. I think i'm going to wait now till T-Mobile 100% have it in stock or Vodafone and order it knowing ill get it the next day (So tuesday probably). I would trust them 2 over MPD with replacing a handset if it was defective HANDS DOWN lol =) I'm still trying to get £12's worth of delivery charges for my HD2 order attempts back.. Not looking hopefull atm :(
[HD2 General] Pantaloonie:
Mmm, lots of useful info in the dispatch email I got.

Invoice Date: $$$SMARTLIFT_PARAM_INVOICE_DATE$$$

New Mobile Number:	$$$SMARTLIFT_PARAM_MOBILE_NUMBER$$$

Handset IMEI Number:	$$$SMARTLIFT_PARAM_IMEI_NUMBER$$$

New SIM Number:	$$$SMARTLIFT_PARAM_SIM_NUMBER$$$

Looks like their system had a brain fart.

A tracking number would have been nice too.
[HD2 General] acostaf:
So your order have been marked as "Dispatched" when did you ordered ?
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
ordered 9th of November on T-mobile contract. I received email saying that it has been despatched.....order tracker on their webpage saying "no current orders". God knows what they doing. I just want my phone and last email from them gave me little more hope :)
[HD2 General] Pantaloonie:
22/10 on T-Mo.
[HD2 General] acostaf:
it's kind of random the way they are sending those notification with not tracking number. Any one got tracking number ?
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
anybody's order disappear from MBD order tracker page after they received email about dispatching???
[HD2 General] rovex:
I got the same desptach email, im sure its fine, just a computer eror. Hopefully it will come tomorrow, i do sometimes get spoecial delivery on saturday, its just not 100%.

I wont cancel my order since its very good value and i wouldnt get it any quicker any other way.
[HD2 General] ssppeeddyy2:
that is exactly the way I am thinking
[HD2 General] Pantaloonie:
Royal Mail now charge extra for saturday deliveries, I doubt if MPD will have paid it.
