Hello mate.... fresh from modding the LG Renior... your updates were excellent.... any plans for the HD2
[HD2 General] g.lewarne:
hello mate!!!!

god that was a long time ago, wasnt it!!

i have plans to start cooking roms for this, but need to figure out all the how-to's first and how its done. at the moment, i have had my HD2 for just 2 days so im still learning. it is absolutely light years ahead of the LG's isnt it! :D
[HD2 General] busterdan:
Yes it certainly is light years ahead... shame I am stuck on T-Mobile and have an old ROM :(

While I don't have my HD2 yet, Wednesday is the day, I have to say I have spent the better part of the last 4 months reading, comparing and researching all I can about the HD2 and any Android alternatives...I have to say that while the Androids do look nice at the end of the days I am so pleased to be able to hook into my Evchange server and all of the other functionality that comes with Windows Mobile and having seen some of the possible planned features that Windows Mobile 7 will bring to the game I can't see why you would change but change you have C'est la Vie...

Me I am counting the days to get my hands on the HD2.

On a side note I am amazed at the amount of money being spent on the HD2 - Mine will come unlocked from Phones4U at what is essentially free in terms of cost...go figure.

I'm going Android as well. had my hd2 since mid dec and just really fed up with with all the little problems I get with it. I love the actual device and htc sense but winmo is still terrible imo. plus with work demands and a baby girl at home I simply haven't the inclination or time to be constantly tweaking and messing to get things how I want.

I've had an iPhone and my wife has the hero and android is just the better fit for my particular needs.
[HD2 General] lee1980:
Oh another complaining thread. Keep it up guys. The more complains I read the more in love I am with my HD2....
[HD2 General] MichelDiamond:
I like my WinMo on my HD2 - and this device os the best, I've seen so far (I think it won't change until I see HD3 :) )

I'm not a fan of Android/Linux,but why talking about devices here?

Doesn't this work for you? :

[HD2 General] equalness:
Thanks all of you for this discutions , thats why I love this forum. I dont have the hd2 yet but I will very soon . I had the touch cruise and the hd 1 and now an Iphone 3G ; so I have been looking for thread like this one to learn about different os ect..

There is rumors about a new device : The Htc supersonic, a kind of hd2 with android. Could it be something ? I know I couldn't wait for it to com so I will probably buy the hd 2 in a few days and I will probably search for alternativ roms next week ;-)

Nexus WTF

I have both of them. I personally have a HD2 and from the office a Nexus one. Try reading emails on Nexus or try using it as a navigation unit. Try to watch a movie. HD2 is way ahead. Have you seen how hot Nexus becomes because of its compact size.

I vote for HD2. This is the best you can get. Sooner or later we HD2 owners will have an option of running Android on our devices and can switch to and fro Win Mo7 and Android but you can't. PITY on you.
[HD2 General] addyb:
Media playback on the HD2 is great. Tried a few things out and its good mainly due to the screen size. In reality though i will never ever watch films etc on the HD2 and i wont on any phone. The main reason im getting rid of mine is Winmo its as simple as that. As a phone os its by far the worst out of the ones ive used and so temperamental its untrue. Ive no doubt winmo 7 will be a vast improvement.

Its a shame really as hardware and build quality are excellent on the HD2. Its a really impressive bit of kit and easily the best phone ive had in this regards.

Its just a shame its letdown by winmo in its current form.

I would recommend the phone to anyone but personally ive fallen out of love with it. But saying that i do this with every phone i get!

I might have some weird adversion to mobiles! :D

I cant believe this thread creator really owned HD2:D you cant be serious?

How long will android remain 'open' now that it has been removed from the linux kernel development tree? My guess is development of it will stay in-house or niche at best.

[HD2 General] ace_dynamo:
I've had my HD2 for just over a month now (upgraded from a Tytn II) and I'm personally loving it.

Haven't done much to it apart from a large selection of the 'hints and tips' suggestions (including C00kie's 16 links/extended calender cab).

I've played with iphones, webOs and symbian, not tried Android, but WinMo just does everything I want and with very little complaining (one major crash in the first couple of days but that was right after my gf played with it so still blaming her!)

I don't personally use my phone for media (aside from engadget podcasts) and not really too fussed with fancy apps or games (though have installed Experiment 13, Xtrakt and Electopia demo).

Each to their own I suppose but at £90 and £35/month for 18 months I didn't think I was getting too bad a deal.
[HD2 General] Tanmay®:
Read most of the posts here. Either people are lieing to themselves or just haven't used Android or iPhone on a Daily basis.

WinMo seriosuly sucks. I personally have to restart my HD2 atleast 5 times a day! It truly sucks in the User Experience department.

The HD2 as an hardware is totally awesome! It does deserve some better software. The only reason I bought the HD2 was considering Windows Mobile 7 and XDAs Android on WinMo support.

But I'm feeling a whole lot better after reading the current WM7 features. Building from ground up is what MS needed to do to match up with Android/iPhone OS. Windows Mobile is gonna take a huge turn if they are true.

HD2 finally seems worth it as an investment.
[HD2 General] freyberry:
Maybe people are just different?

I've used iPhones for a long time and I would NEVER buy one again. NEVER. The experience has been incredibly frustrating.

Even if I had to restart my HD2 five times a day (which is not the case and definitely YOUR fault, not WM's), the experience could not be any more frustrating than it was with the iPhone.

Android is a different story, cause it's not as limited as the iPhone, but I used it and really found nothing that would make me want it over WM.

Just accept that people are different before you say stupid things like one or the other OS sucks. Just because it sucks for you doesn't mean it sucks for everybody. Only morons would make such a conclusion.

And NO, I do NOT want those rumors to be true. I don't want WM7 to be a copy of the iPhone OS, I want it to be a copy of WM6.5.
[HD2 General] enyaj:
I think the problem lies within the user. The only time I restart my HD2 is when I install apps that need restarting after. Either you are not using it properly or you HD2 has some factory defect.
[HD2 General] enyaj:
OS and Apps will always be user preference. I think the only comparison that can be objective is the Hardware. And for me hardware wise HD2 has better specs.

HTC P3400i GENE100 Dead

I have a HTC P3400i GENE100. I successfully installed orefkov SPL and then upgraded my original ROM WM 6.0 to cooked wm 6.5. After installation my device was too slow than before hence I flashed it with RUU_Gene_hTC_Asia_India_1.17.720.1_4.1.13.34_02.79 .90_Ship.exe. After flashing it 100 % my New Gene restarted, but didnt boot to booting screen. Its not going into bootloader mode also. It shows blank screen i.e. black. I tried several combinations of keys (Camera + Power button or Camera + Reset or by pressing both "-" button + Reset) for going it to bootloader mode. But none of them working. When I plug in charger the green & red light blinks once and nothing else. Same if I press reset with stylus, the green & red light blinks once and nothing else happens. I know that I have bricked my New Gene, when I flashed the ROM, which was meant for Old Gene, which I came to know after reading the posts in this forum. I have to use JTAG Method for recovering my Gene. Hence I have read many posts about it in this forum. But can any one of the great masters here, help me with a proper guide that can help me recover my Gene 100%.

Thank you for spending your valuable time in reading this post.

Hi everyone,

Today, I try to share my ADSL internet connexion in Wifi via my HD2 but in vain.

What I'd like to do is to share the internet connexion from my PC to my HD2 with USB cable and then to share this connexion by Wifi to others PC or PPC. i-e, to use my HD2 as a really router-wifi will do.

Do you guys have already done this?

thank you
[HD2 General] Archer:
You can't do it mate. The wifi router on the HD2 will ONLY route its own data connection. You need a wifi router for you want. Sorry.
[HD2 General] grorel:
ok,

but anyone knows a software which can handle it? or at least, is it possible to share the connexion from the computer to the HD2? Or do I have to forget about it right now? :)
[HD2 General] Archer:
Sorry mate, but yeah. Forget about it. I'd say that I'd eat my phone if anyone ever finds a way of doing that, but I just can't bring myself to even imagine eating my lovely HD2 :p
[HD2 General] grorel:
thank you

brain cleared !
[HD2 General] grorel:
Hi dude, are you ready to eat your lovely HD2 :p

I found that software : wmwifirouter (actually someone told me to use it)

and it does exactly what I want.

Here is the tip to made the connexion working : link

there is a 21 days trial version and then the software is 19.99€

I want to see the video of you eating your phone on youtube... :D (Just kidiing ;))

PS : since I am a new user, I can't post outside links. Where can I ask to change that ? thank you
[HD2 General] BLAST3RR:
You can only connect one device at a time though..
[HD2 General] Archer:
You'll have to settle with me being happy to be corrected mate. I'm about to eat something, but it's more likely to be made by my mate at Subway than by HTC!

That changes when you've made a few more posts. Not sure exactly how many, but it's not a lot. (I've got 7 in my head for some reason, but it may be 10).

How to share my ADSL internet connection using Wifi to my HD2?

To use my PC as access point?
[HD2 General] Archer:
There's only 8 posts above yours. Surely that's not too much for you to read yourself? The answer is 3 posts up from yours.
[HD2 General] mcdoc:
Yes, but i don't understand quite well. Corect me if i am wrong, WMWifiRouter is software for Cell phone, I need software for PC or an explanation how to. My PC is an acces point. Under Win 7 i created a wireless network connection (I have Asus P5K-E WI FI AP MB) and connected my HD2 but when i start opera i get error massage about connection.
[HD2 General] mcdoc:
Well, I did it. Now I can connect to PC by my Leo and browse internet through my PC WiFi connection and ADSL modem :)

No extra charge!

It is quite simple under win 7.

One should first make bridge connecton between Local area connection and Wireless network connection. IP adresses should be configured manualy.

In phone first activate Wi-Fi, go to advanced>>change network>>computer-to-computer>>network adapters>>Broadcom802.11 DHD Network adapter and set IP according to PC. Then go to connections and set IP also.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
You can even do simpler, you just need to right-click on your LAN connection, select properties, advanced, click share connection, connect your wifi connection in the dropdown below if it appears. IP can be dynamic in this case, the PC willmake a DHCP server.

It's not what the original poster wanted to do though. He wanted to use the HD2 basically as an "outgoing" USB wifi adapter for a PC that doesn't have one.
[HD2 General] mcdoc:
Nope. I don't see that dropdown menu. But, never mind. I have one question for you, I can't browse directory structure of my PC from phone or to connect to PC as a client. Is there any program for that, or an explanation. Tnx.

I'm using TAEL Rom xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=587883

I am having problems getting MyPhone to work, the version that is included in the ROM no longer works without an update, however the update package is unable to remove the old version from the rom, so it is unable to install the new version, could this be because it was cooked into the rom? There is no uninstaller for it in remove programs but I have installed SKTools and I have run the MyPhone uninstaller which was listed in there but I think it has left some traces behind (there is a load of files in my windows folder).

Could someone point me in the right direction as to how to clean up all traces of myphone including registry and files etc as I cannot install the new version, the progress bar on the installer gets to around 80% then my device just freezes and I have to do a soft reset.

Any help would be appreciated

Hello all,

I've been looking for a solution for this problem I've had since I installed the SlideIt keyboard, but I can't seem to find a solution. Every time I go into HTC Album and rotate the phone, the SlideIt keyboard pops up and wont go away. I've tried to disable the Gsensor for HTC Album (through registry), but this doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know this problem, or can think of a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you for this helpful reply nitrate! In the meantime I fixed the problem in HTC Album, seems I needed to soft reset for the registry edit to work. But you are right, it does that thing in more apps when you rotate the phone, I just never rotate that much so I never noticed. Good to hear they are working on it! Thanks again!

Hi,

When my HD2 boots the wifi is switched on. This did not happen untill i flashed the 2.01 rom on to the device is there a cab that will stop the wifi service starting on boot?

Cheers
[HD2 General] widoo:
I think that's because you didn't get the starting wizard after flash (had the same problem with some custom ROM based on 2.01/2.02).

Try to put your Leo in plane mode, the startup wizard should come up. Go till the end of the wizard and then reboot to see if it still happens.

Let us know.

Hey guys, Is it possible to allow the phone to automatically link people in contacts to their facebook accounts ? Its a hassle to link dozens of accounts manually :S

Thanks.
[HD2 General] Archer:
There's ongoing discussions about this with people all reporting different results.

Personally, I have email address for most of my contacts and it links them effortlessly to the matching facebook accounts. It works every time I flash a new ROM, so I'm 100% sure that email addresses is the way to go. Besides, facebook uses email addresses for login so everyone on there has an email address on their account.

Hope this is of some use :)
