You know what? **** you, why the hell are you getting so stressy at me, I'm just starting out and yes, I may have over exagerated a few things, and yes, a couple of words may have been mispelt, but is that really any reason for you to go mad at me? Christ I posted here looking for help, and everyone else HAS been useful apart from you who has just pissed me off by being a complete arrogant idiot who appears to have nothing better to than rant at other people as you knows so much more, because after all, you are the "Cyber Ninja"

Christ sake
[HD2 General] Hojlind:
yeh having CAB files on the memory card or internal storage (diamond) is a seriously great idea :) whenever you loaded on a new rom, you will always have easy access to all of your favorite apps and programs :) its just wonderful :P

^ thats so sad :( i cant believe we actually have people on this forum (actually a quite know person in this case) who acts so disrespectful towards new members...

So what if he didn't do so much research? what is the big problem? if you get so mad then press the red "X" on the tab or press "back". no one says you have to answer right?

And no OS is better than another. Windows Mobile may be the best in your and my opinion, but Iphone OS might be better for the average user, who is not tech interested but just want a phone that works, and are able to do a lot, without them having to learn a lot of new stuff. No matter what you say i have no doubt that the iphone OS is more intuitive out of the box than Windows Mobile is. (i am gonna get flamed now :rolleyes: )
[HD2 General] 4D3:
Firstly this isnt a personal attack, it is to balance out the damage posts like this can do to devices like this. this is usually the first place people come when researching HTC devices, since this is the foremost site for HTC devices.

For EG if someone actually wanted a HTC HD2, came here to research the device and its capabilities, then read your post and the others like it they probably will drop the device and move to iPhone!

but now, if they read the thread and see a post like this defending the devices it counter balances the mis-statements in your post.

In the last month since this device has come out, due to the popularity of the iPhone and subsequent hardware/software problems pertaining towards the device, people like you have been buying the HTC HD2 before you know what your getting into and posting threads like this ALL over the forum eg:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=598035

&

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=598035

etc.

Also i specifically reference to this post HERE for a full explanation of why i flamed!!

these people have basically done the same as you, got/getting the phone and slagging it off before it has even arrived.

this device is the best device of its kind available, and as with everything if you know how to use it you can improve the device and its function, but coming onto a forum BEFORE you have even held the device and saying its **** is just plain stupid and you deserve to get flamed.

as for attacking me, "Cyber Ninja" well yes, i fix alot of things here and i also seem to be the one who speaks straight and doesnt give a crap if i offend, i just speak what people think.

you could have answered ANY of your questions with the search button!

To quote the Moderators:

notice how this is the first rule!

Just incase you cant find it here is a picture of the search function:

and i have read the thread, and most people have not been helpful, quite a few basically tell you to "Go Buy an Android or iPhone"

so please dnt try and get me with that innocent crap!

I think if you get the device i would be extremely useful to you since i can provide most of the "softwares" you are looking for, things that should be discussed via PM! you get me?

also for themes you may want to see my themeing thread: HERE I also have 90% of the visual tweaks mapped out to the registry and have started posting the items: HERE

i fixed the GPS Location Issues on the Diamond, and i also think that my method is still fastest about, as i get fix in about 3 seconds WITHOUT the Modded GPS Driver.

[HD2 General] 4D3:
Hi,

No flaming! :cool:

Well no, it is better because the capability to do anything is there you just have to know how to do it! hence it is a more complete OS.

I agree with this:

BUT... with the speed that people learn things, the "Average User" may find the iPhone good until they understand its limitations, then it becomes a crap os!

I got my MUM and iPhone for her birthday in July, by mid Nov she sold it because the phone was too basic, the sat nav apps were rubbish, wifi over heated, bluetooth didnt work unless it was iphone to iphone, no mms etc etc and a whole host of other things.

not she is on HTC any time the thinks of something she needs her phone to do, she just asks me and the phone can do it!!

EG: she has 3 different sat navs, iGO8, Navigon & TomTom. she has TMC working through the FM Receiver on the phone and TTS! that on its own is nearly £700 if you go to the shop and buy a satnav with TMC & TTS.

this cannot be dont on the other phones!

the problem is as i said iPhone quickly becomes easy to use and boring, as with the andriob, but this will get better as im sure we all no.

my problem is that the more bad mouthing HTC gets the less people get the devices, the less people buy the fewer new devices we get to play with!

[HD2 General] [★]:
Just wanted to clear something up, I didn't say the phone is ****, I merely stated I had read that windows mobile wasn't too great, which Is why I asked about it here for advice, infact I had a pocket pc once (running wm of course) and I wasn't so keen with it ( crashing, lag ect ) but whatever. I'm not a complete idiot and as I continue to this phone I will learn more about it and start understanding the world of smart phones :D

(Oh and one of my favourite things about the HD2, perhaps one of the main reasons I bought it over other phones) was its 4.3" screen, I love watching tv shows, movies ect, ( I watch them currently on my zen vision w which I love, but need something for portability ) I watch loads of Anime as well, so I need a big screen for the subs

Ok, I guess we got off to a bad start,

So....

Wanna start fresh?

You get my point! thanks, check you PM i just fired you over something!

[HD2 General] Xeon:
I sold my device because I was fed up with all the hardware troubles I had. The HD2 is a great device if the handset is faultless but you just need to test it. For me I was in a rush, bought it from a foreign country and when I got back I found that the earpiece was crackling, and the screen was acting weird. I sold the device and I ordered a new one. Should be fine this time, i mean hopefully ( crossed fingers. )
[HD2 General] Xeon:
Just a question out of the blue...

What's with the hostility lately in the forum ?
[HD2 General] [★]:
Thanks man, very re-assuring + I bought it from my country (England) so no worries there ;)
[HD2 General] scilor:
If you want that ****ty iPhone OS buy yourself an iPhone ;)
[HD2 General] aiwama:
I agree with you. And I apologize for being a bit hostile with the "star". The truth is that I'm about to renew my contract and get the HD2. I've been reading and watching a lot of stuff and am now 100% determined to get it. Suddenly there he is asking how to completely change the HD2 because he

heard

that WM 6.5 is crap! Oh, and what to do with a .cab file after downloading it!? Is this a joke? The "star" really came across as a very agressive, insulting and at the same time extremely lazy person. Of course he doesn't have to know all about everything. Nobody here (me included) knows everything! But, please, be nice and humble and everybody will pay you back with help and understanding. ;)
[HD2 General] aiwama:
I apologize to you for my brutal words. But, c'mon man, you have to acknowledge that you were a bit like a guy arriving at a Convention and start laughing and joking instead of looking at what people are doing and talking about to transform and improve whatever their persuits are. So, let's start afresh! Be welcomed, let's help each other. BTW, I'm also 'green with envy' because it looks like you'll be getting the HD2 before I do. :mad::eek::D
[HD2 General] [★]:
Er, how did I come across as an agressive and insulting person? I only retaliated because I was flamed :/ + Its not a joke about the cab files, I hadn't tried yet as I dont have the phone yet, and so I was just confirming :/
[HD2 General] aiwama:
.cab files work more or less like anything you download and install in your computer. Some files, after downloading, need to be installed. You save the file somewhere in your computer and then go there and click to install. It is exactly the same with a .cab file :D
[HD2 General] [★]:
So how was I aggressive, insulting?
[HD2 General] NeilM:
No point labouring it :) Read your 1st post- some comments were guaranteed to inflame those in a WinMo forum ('total crap' etc) and others could have been answered by reading any of the many in-depth reviews of the HD2, or other WinMo devices.

Just get your phone, enjoy it, be prepared to install and remove a lot of stuff as your preferences change, then once you know exactly what you like, return it to it's factory state and just install those apps you feel are your essentials.

Don't forget- any new OS be it phones, PCs etc will have a learning curve :)

I want a way to change the language of the ROM.

or create a French version of WM6.5 New Version for wizard.

Please Please

Many thank you ...
[HD2 General] jayom:
I just want to know, how far is this a rumor that HD2 will have the option of upgrading itself to windows mobile 7 !
[HD2 General] tictac0566:
It´s still just a rumor. On the other hand, a Microsoft spokesperson most recently announced another delay of Windows Mobile until end of 2010.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
I would say there is virtually no chance at all that there will ever be an official HTC upgrade to WM7. There will almost certainly be an unofficial one created by some of the ROM "chefs" here at XDA.
[HD2 General] iphoneresister:
The rumor has been that HD2 owners will be some of the first to get WM7 from HTC...
[HD2 General] pack21:
The most important question for me to buy a HD2, is whether I can upgrade to WM7, because I do not want to be spending so much money, for 3 months from now, have the HD2 obsolete with WM6.5.

If only HD2 had good hopes for the WM7, what do you think?
[HD2 General] maati:
Exactly. I think that answer is as accurate as it gets right now.

@pack21
[HD2 General] chrisnash:
I think jayom was referring to Windows 7 and not Windows Windows MOBILE 7.

Interesting idea - processor should be up to it - would need to find more RAM though
[HD2 General] pack21:
I did not understand what you wanted to say, can you explain better...:p
[HD2 General] maati:
Windows 7 does not run on ARM processors.
[HD2 General] snerkler:
I emailed HTC directly last week regarding this, and here's the response I got:-

"Thank you for your enquiry about HD2 What we do it ROM Upgrades from our website, however 6.5 windows mobile has only been out 2 months and windows mobile 7 hasn't even been developed. This wont be out until next november at the earliest. But when it is available it will be a free download"
[HD2 General] Archer:
Eh? .
[HD2 General] biranouran:
I just want to know if Windows 7 will let me do less soft reset in the future, because HTC has a bad idea to hide the reset point in the cache back of battery. I need to do soft reset once or twice a day.
[HD2 General] Archer:
Do you want windows 7 to come with an extra hardware button, or are you looking for a software solution? If you're happy with a software solution, there's one in the themes & applications area, in the stickied threads.
[HD2 General] Fantastica:
I'm thinking we'll find out by March 2010, when MIX is on. This is when MS have said they'll finally talk about WM7. Until then, it's all just speculation.
[HD2 General] Deiota:
will the windows phone 7 be released for HD2? when?
[HD2 General] Sim0nM:
Highly doubtful HTC will update HD2 to WinPhone 7 cause they are releasing HD3/HD7 but i hope there will be xda release :D i think it's highly probable, just need to wait few months.
[HD2 General] Deiota:
so how can I see WP7 on youtube with HD2... someone must had upgraded already or am I wrong?
[HD2 General] Imperator Nick:
No, someone has successfully managed to get a hacked version running on an HD2, this has not been stable enough as yet for him to release it on xda. There will NOT be an official upgrade from htc. The button configuration of the HD2 does not meet Microsoft's strict requirements and so htc have released the HD7 instead.

Officially, the HD2 is stuck with WinMo 6.5.

Unofficially, the genius' here on xda will have it running in a month or two, maybe even less
[HD2 General] fishticks:
HD2 tweak from Omarket comes with a soft reset button i think.
[HD2 General] otherworld:
Talking of buttons

For those keen to get WP7 going on their HD2; for me I'm not sure yet.

Do you know there's no phone button on WP7? I really miss that on my WP7 device (vs my HD2) - it takes a button press, a tap, and then another tap to get the phone keypad showing. Of course if some clever soul can get WP7 going on an HD2 AND map the phone button it may just be wonderful.

There's also a big reliance on buttons in WP7 - certainly the back button. I might be missing something but you can't just seem to swipe your finger across the screen to go back. I don't want to have to use the back button all the time. What's the point of having a touch screen phone if you have to always use the button. I never use it on my hd2 as the applications (or task manager) always provide a way on screen. And of course no (general) multi-tasking across apps (and therefore no quick task manager/switcher) means you're using that button a lot.

And text messaging without Swype? (not on WP7 as far as I know) It feels so two years ago!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] djsiva:
phone choice

I'd go with the Verizon model

CDMA network:

Dual-band 800/1900 MHz

CDMA2000 1xRTT/1xEVDO/1xEVDO rev. A and IS-95A/B voice or data with up to 1.8 Mbps

up-link and 3.1 Mbps down-link speeds

GSM network:

2100 MHz HSPA/WCDMA with up to 2 Mbps up-link and 7.2 Mbps down-link speeds

Quad-band 850/900/1800/1900 MHz GPRS/EDGE

(Band frequency, HSPA availability, and data speed are operator dependent.)

It's also the easiest to get SIM unlocked should you decide to use is for GSM in the US.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
14/12: A few of us encounter the SMS sending problem again after applying the fix. So it looks like the latest messaging client found in ROM 1.61 doesn't fix the problem. Of course, I'm assuming that the problem lies on the messaging solution, rather than radio, as explained below.

Hi all,

It's probably a well known fact that HTC messaging has some serious bug, specifically on the reliability on SMS sending.

I've done a quick test, and noted that when the problem happens, usually the network is weak and the phone is undergoing through some network switching (e.g. from 3G to G in order to get better reception). This is consistent with the findings with some folks here.

However, I don't think this is the cause, I say it's a symptom, because network switching is common in any phone, and any reliable messaging app should be able to handle such scenario. On further testing, I noticed that when the problem happens, the messaging service that HTC developed to take over the entire messaging send/receive from Windows Mobile, would crash and won't be able to restart.

So this leads to my belief that the bug fix needs to be at the messaging service and/or the messaging client, rather than the radio.

Of course I could be wrong, but when I hear that HTC has released a new ROM 1.61 with new messaging client, I decided to give the new files a try.

Thanks to Steve0007, who had kindly forwarded me the files very quickly when I dropped him a request for the new files. So please try out this CAB I've put together, and let me know if you still get message stuck over at your end.

I'm crossing my finger!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
not so fast dude. We need to monitor for awhile to see if the new version developed by HTC is indeed solving the problem. The best way to test is to go underground or into lift and see if you can send messages or not :p

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] bigu1975:
Maybe you should try this:

1. Turn the HTC Sence off

2. Reset

3. Install patch

4. reset

5. Turn the HTC Sense on.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
see if you can install after applying the tweak "Policies/Allow unsigned apps" using BSB tweaks app.

Btw, I made a test just now. I changed my SMS preferred setting to 3G (not via Advanced network, but instead HKLM\Software\Jataya\Messaging\SMSPreferredNetwork) and put my phone in a metallic enclosure so that I've no network totally. Then I send out a message to myself and I don't get any delivery report nor the message itself.

After about 10s, I brought the phone out, and then in less than few sec, I got both delivery report and message. So it looks like it's working well, but all these count for nothing if somebody reports otherwise. So your feedback after installing the cab is very much appreciated here.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Eraser85:
Not directly related to this problem but always something regarding HTC Messaging, I've sent an email to HTC asking to fix the long waiting time it takes to load all of your SMS within a contact. It could possibly be one of the following fixes:

- stop updating the list, add all the sms to the control, then re-enable the control: should work reasonably well, since opening a menu while htc messaging is loading sms forces this behavior - Instead of waiting for a minute while loading 300+ sms, you only need to wait 1-2 sec. - Nice improvement, still not solves the problem

- just load 10-20 messages, then put a button to show more.. problem solved.

They replied me telling they've sent the request to the "relevant department".

I havent changed any SMS preferered setting ( still default, GSM prefered?)

anyways, was able to send 2 texts just now, both received by reciepient a second after send. So far so good

Sent 5 more, waiting for replies. nothing in my outbox

so far, so good:D:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
no need, just stick to whatever setting you have. The whole idea is supposed to work regardless of whether you have chosen GSM or WCDMA as your preferred network. Hope it works
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
can you explain why it doesn't work? you still have stucked messages, or you can't install the fix?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jaoropez:
Its working now, got replies from all people verifying receipt of SMS, but anything else i could to "strain" the phone into failing to send an SMS?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ijob:
Okay,

I installed the cab no probs, then reset my sms options back to GSM prefered [default], soft reset, sent a message, that didnt arrive.

Turned the options back to GSM only, removed the cab, soft reset, sent a message and it was sent along with the one I tried to send after first installing the cab.

Hope this helps..

Ok, so i have stopped using the Sense messaging app because its slow and cumbersome, it also does not delete messages from the server when told to, niether does it store messages in the sent box or sync the folders correctly.

So i am now using live, but it also does not sync my hotmail folders properly, i have all the folders, but there is nothing in ones that should be, what am i missing?
[HD2 General] bzdemes:
Hotmail Sub folders

I have a similar problem. I have my hotmail email account added. It downloads emails from my inbox when i tell it to BUT it doesn't DL emails from my other folders. I have email auto sorted in to various folders when it comes in so all E-Shopping stuff goes in one folder, bills in another etc etc. SO currently the email on here is kinda useless to me as all the most important emails i get are auto sorted to folders other than the inbox. Anyone know if there is a way to make it get the contents of the other folders.
