No, completely unconnected aerial. The data/phone aerial(s) are inside, there is no FM aerial, the wire of the phones becomes the aerial.
[HD2 General] BLAST3RR:
Adding to that - not all headphones will just work as FM aerial. You will need to use the default HTC headset as far as I know to get a signal.

There is a video on youtube showing the HTC HD2 running internet explorer with multitouch working - pinch to zoom.

Now I know IE is not the popular choice but I find the flash support in some of the newer roms to be excellent and I probably use IE more than Opera.

Does anyone know how to get multitouch working in IE?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
You could use BSBtweaks which lets you add apps to pinch to zoom and rotate.
[HD2 General] steviesteve78:
Thanks for the response, tried but no luck. Im using MIRI rom, not sure if it's compatible
[HD2 General] Archer:
The ROM won't change this - it's part of the OS. For some reason, you can't add pinch-to-zoom to some programs. IE is one of them.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Every day's a school day!
[HD2 General] steviesteve78:
Ah, that sucks a little, IE has become quite a good browser, if I could get multitouch, like in the video, I could ditch opera :-(

Anyone know of any other solutions?

Bump, was thinking the same

i wasnt liking the new implementation of opera 10 and was searching for a tweak in IE :(
[HD2 General] the_ape:
The version that you are seeing is a special one that Adobe used to show off flash 10.1 running on the device with 'propper' pinch zoom built in. I'm sure it will eventualy leak in one of the 6.5.x builds, but until MS leak it then we are stuffed.

Hi,

I've installed an older version of BW clock onto my Open Home page however, the animations are not working and it sometimes is force closing.

I have reinstalled but still no joy.

Anyone know if it actually does work on an alternative home screen or do you have to use only on the normal HTC one. (I would suggest pretty pointless if that was the case).

Can anyone advise?

Thanks

Hi,

Do you know any program that would allow me to kill one particular app after let's say I don't touch my phone for 2 minutes?
[General Topics] zaratustra123:
Anyone??????????
[General Topics] poetryrocksalot:
For that you will probably need an application running in the background. I'm no technician or professional but I think that if an application has to run in the background and periodically scan for running applications and periodically "waiting" to close the applications, it will drain the battery.

For example, if you use a profile scheduling application or any kind of 3rd party app to schedule "anything" on your phone, you will notice the battery drains pretty fast.

Do not buy applications like Phoneweaver, and the likes, because it will drain your battery (I've tested other apps too).
[HD2 General] BlackICE:
Hi!

I have my HD2 for a couple of days. At the beginning I had to fight with the touchscreen to be not so exact or not getting the touches.

Now I disovered what was the problem: the touchscreen covers the complete front of the device. And when you hold the device in your hand you are touching the touchscreen a little from the sides. When this happens the touchscreen is reacting bad.

When I take care not to touch the screen with my holding hand at the sides (which is difficult as the device is very slim) then the screen works perfect! I can type on the keyborard without any errors and fast.

I hope this helps!

[HD2 General] IIIIIChrisIIIII:
Hi everybody!

Could someone having the HD2 answer these questions:

While using the device's GPS over longer time (>1 hour), does the device get as hot as the HTC Touch Diamond? I'm asking that question, because on Diamond after some hours of using the GPS (charging cable in car plugged), the device gets so hot, that the battery doesn't charge any longer. And suddenly your device gets off, although its plugged for charging through cigarrete lighter.

Are there lag problems like with the HTC touch diamond?

Thanks for your replies!

Chris
[HD2 General] jchoong:
GPS is one of my primary uses for my smartphones. Over the past 2 years, I have used a Diamond, Diamond 2 and now the HD2. My main GPS software is GMXT.

Yes, in the case of the Diamond, overheating was an issue with extended GPS use. It was significantly better in the case of TD2. Although I have not had the opportunity to use the HD2 on GPS for extended periods, I would guess it would be better than the TD2 - in terms of heat. I think it is a simple case of better dissipation of heat - since the body surface area have gone significantly larger from Diamond, to TD2, to HD2.

In terms of lag, I believe all smartphones will have some form of GPS lag, given its in-built GPSr. However I`m glad to say that the HD2 is extremely fast in getting a sat lock; much faster than the other 2 phones. And a 4.3" screen? It`s very legible when mounted in your car.
[HD2 General] nerodante80:
Yeah I used GMXT on my nokia 5800 and now on HD2 and for me HD2 is the best phone for gps because of the large screen, good gps processor and it has quickgps. Gmxt on HD2 displays position very accurately during navigation. A little heat issues but none so severe like the diamond.
[HD2 General] CRO_Misho:
I was using Garmin mobile XT on HTC Touch HD. It overheated it so much that the screen stopped responding. I had to be serviced afterwards.

HD 2 moderately heats, (but no problem at all) I guess the stronger processor has to do with it.
[HD2 General] omar302:
Something to consider:

The HTC car charger used for the older phones, with mini USB, had an output rating of 2A. While the newer HTC charger for the HD2, with micro USB, has an output rating of 1A.
[HD2 General] IIIIIChrisIIIII:
Thanks for your replies!

So as far as i understood it correct, it is possible to use GPS with the HD2 endless while charger cable is connected in the car?

I already used a 600mA charger for the car, heating is the same as with a 1A charger...

I don't understand the logic. HD2 has a 1GH processor, while the HD has only 500Mh (half of the HD2) -> HD2 should get much hotter. But as far as i understood now, thats not case...
[HD2 General] pat12:
I'm pretty sure the heat has much more to do with the battery being constantly charged than with cpu usage...I guess a way to find out would be to use the GPS for one hour without charging (provided that the battery doesn't get drained before the hour is up :-)

and then again one hour with the battery being charged and compare heat.
[HD2 General] IIIIIChrisIIIII:
OK, I try to explain the known situation of my/the HTC Touch Diamond:

Using GPS (with IGO) about maximally one hour ist possible. Device gets verry hot, but thats no problem. But using GPS for a longer time (more than one hour, what's not verry unusual) forces you to charge the battery. Normally you won't start plugging the charging cable while driving. So i plug it in before my drive. Normally you would expect, that in that case the battery never gets empty, because it's permanently charging (for examle like a notebook, which's battery is in and is connected to a power source). But the problem is, that after some time the device gets so hot, that the emergency mechanism of the battery stops charging to prevent battery damage (or even explosion). The reason why the battery of the Touch Diamond gets so hot is, that the Processor is directly above the battery.

You're right charging heats the battery up. In combination with a already heated battery through the processor and considering that in summer the temperature can be high and even more heating up the battery by charging... after some time the mentioned battery protection mechanism prevents further charging and after some time the device gets off because there is no more power in the battery although it's connected to a power source...

Because of this issue and under consideration that i'm driving a lot and neet a Mobile GPS device which i can use even for 24 hours, i'm thinking about buying the HTC HD2. Therefore i need to know if the device gets so hot, that the battery stops charging after some time by using the GPS?

Can somebody definetly acknowledge or deny this?
[HD2 General] harddisk_wp:
Well, I have had no problems so far relating to heat. I have had problems with current consumption - I have a 500mA rated charger/fm transmitter... was fine with my old Mio, but after ~2min of iGo8 usage, HD2 warns me charging voltage is too low (sure, if too much current is drawn, the RC oscillator of the DC voltage regulation circuit gets out of proper operation). Use a decent charger and you won't have problems.
[HD2 General] emigrating:
I was running the HD2 with Glympse for around 7 hours this past Wednesday and it was working perfectly the whole time. It was plugged into the charger constantly and while the device was warm it was no more warm than after a prolonged webbrowsing or gaming session.

Could be that using Co-Pilot or something similar would stress the CPU more than Glympse did but I doubt we would run into any issues of overheating either way.
[HD2 General] dzemah:
IGO and Battery charge

1. If you use the IGO when the battery was fully charged before (green light) the HTC will work without any problems.

2. If you direct your aircondition to windshield and cool the HTC it will work fine.

3. I have TYTN II and HD2 and both off them have the same problem with battery charging when using IGO (without a work arround that I described above)
[HD2 General] nick_manchester:
I used my HD2 with IGO8 constantly for 3hrs whilst on a long drive. I had it plugged in with charger the whole time. Whilst it worked fine for the journey, it did get incredibly hot, almost too hot to touch! and when I closed IGO8 the phone was very unresponsive and lagging constantly even though nothing was running, so I ended up switching it off for a few mins to cool down. Worked fine on restart.

same story.. before HD2 I've had a Diamond that after half hour of charging + GPS it was very hot and it wouldn't charge. On Leo I've noticed that if it's charged 50% and I am plugin to the car charger it still gets hot , I charge it for about 1 hour (trip duration) and after 1 second I'm plugin it out, the battery drops from 100% to 83%.

Well as (some/most?) of you know, getting a european phone to work on north american frequencies with 3g is hit and miss...

6 months ago, with an xperia x1i, I couldn't get 3g anywhere... but now its pretty much good in most of my city, so this is great...

So I thought... my friend has an N900 (3G Network HSDPA 1700 / 2100 / 900) and it will NOT go to 3g.

the x1i is 3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100

Also, my i8910 (before it got lost) worked on 3g here, and its bands are 3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100

last but not least, my i8000 (omnia 2) works on the 3g where the x1i and i8910 do, having 3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100

So I've come to the conclusion that 1900 is the new frequency that my operator has opened up lately for 3g.

I was thinking of upgrading to the hd2 just on the grounds that it seems like a winmo powerhouse, but the fact that it doesn't have hspa/3g on 1900 sucks...

does anybody know if htc will be bringing a north american specific version any time soon like sony has with the x1a ?
[HD2 General] band27:
This thread <<HERE>>. Speaks on how the TELSTRA operator in Australia is the way to go if you are with AT&T in the US or Rogers if you live in Canada.

Most people migrated to this operators version to get 3G in the US unless you are T-Mobile which uses a completely different band.
[HD2 General] tg989:
So its special hardware or just a rom update will unlock it?

[HD2 General] djheadcrash@web.de:
Hi!

I'am experiencing an annoying problem with my HTC HD2 and I was wondering if anybody else got the same problems.

I use the integrated Sense player a lot when I'am one my way to work. Sometimes I encounter phone calls or I need to call someone, which indeed shouldn't be that uncommon for a phone.

When phone rings, the music stops and I can phone in normal way. After the phonecall the music resumes for about one or two minutes, then music stutters until the phone is unusable and music stopped finally.

Touchscreen doesn't react. Most hardware keys don't react. Only the shutdown button behaves in the usual way (display on/off).

It is pure horror! The only way to resolve the problem is to put the battery out of the phone, cause I can not push the reset button when traveling.

Some details about my phone:

OS: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)

Manilla-Version: 2.5.19211619.0

ROM: 1.48.407.1 (71294) GER

ROM-Date: 11/19/09

All my music is Windows Media Audio (DRM-protected (Napster subscription)). I don't know if that is happening also when playing MP3 files.

Did somebody experience the same issue?

Is there a newer german ROM (>1.48)? I don't know which is the actual version beside of the brand-new 1.6 version that is only available on the asian website.

I used the board seach feature, but most of the roms offered are modified in installed programs or Sense design and offer only english language.

Thanks in advance.

[HD2 General] bel_z_bub:
I think you have the latest german ROM. Maybe it has something to do with your SD card.. back it up and try formatting it with the HD2.

Maybe it helps to install the Storage card update, if you haven't already..
