[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jairomeo:
A theme is something designed to change the look of your phone. Your ROM is which version of the Android OS you are using. You MUST use a theme designed for your ROM. If it is a theme you flash, it needs to be compatible with the version of the ROM you are using. If you use MetaMorph, you have to ensure it is for the right ROM set. MetaMorph's can work on multiple ROM's whether it be 1.6(Cy, Super-D, Wes's, Dwang's), 2.1/Eclair (Jac, Manup, csto, King's) or Hero.

The ROM you are using is a 2.1/Eclair ROM therefore you must use a theme designed to work for it. There are a few 2.1 MetaMorph's but not many of us have began porting our work to 2.1 yet.

[HD2 General] R3dD3vil:
the dual boot works great for my hd2 and perhaps for all the hd2's all over the world. the big problem is that there is no working android image for the hd2, but i hope in the future the developers will bring an working version for the hd2, there are a lot of versions for diamond touch pro 1 and 2 blackstone, but none work for the hd2 :(
[HD2 General] nwolsink:
I currently have these phones (ordere in listing of purchase)

Iphone 3G

HTC Hero

HTC HD2

Nexus ONE

My conclusion is we need Android for the HD2, the Nexus is great as well but the HD2 with Android will rule!! Hero is a bit to tiny for my taste and I am done with Apple
[HD2 General] mrmomoman:
The HTC Supersonic for Sprint is supposed to have the Android 2.1 on it. It's an HTC HD2 in Android form.

Anyone know of this?
[Touch HD General] atifsh:
many ppl i know cant access mms, so is there a way, like many normal dumb :P phones do to send someone contact card using sms. iv searched cant find answer. i need to send not recieve.
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
I don't understand...
[HD2 General] arxx:
I don't know if HTC are following xda-developers.com threads, but I just felt like thank them.

With the 1.66 release, the phone works like a charm for me, and seems to do that for many other peoples as well.

Ok, the 1.66 ROM is the one HD2 should be delivered with in the first place, but now it's here, and it works.

It's easy to compare the stability (specially on a new phone) to Apple iPhones, which kinda works nice out of the box. But there are so many reasons of that. Apple have ONE device, which they have full control over.

Enough about Apple. I think HTC has done a great job with HD2, and now that it works as it should, i'm really excited to see whats next. If it's rumors about WM7 is true, and MS will only let devices with HD2 type specs run it, they might as well get interesting developers making great software and games. We know it's possible, we've already seen some nice OpenGL 2.0 games running on WM devices. We now only need Microsoft to build a decent Marketplace, and get devs on their team.

Htc, Great job!
[HD2 General] de Wolfe:
I also have to say, that my phone worked brilliantly with SEA-WWE-ROM. But until HTC doesn't give out the upgrade to us in Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands and Poland, Czech Republik, Romania, Hong Kong, aso. I won't say "thank you HTC!"... :cool:
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
True! They should release the rom for everybody.
[HD2 General] arxx:
Agreed. Don't know why they hold it, but when it's released, you'll be happy :)
[HD2 General] romani87:
Czech Rep

Yeah I'm waiting for Czech 1.66 HD2 ROM ....... :confused:
[HD2 General] bigx86:
Ive also noticed that my phone have become more stabile
[HD2 General] bibbe:
there is a problem in sms

once all the sms are loaded the last sms gets selected :(
[HD2 General] omneity:
This is true, but HTC are not alone in releasing technology (software or hardware) to market before it's been fully tested, too many companies rely upon end-users to do the final beta testing. I guess that's commercial pressure for you?

Anyway, 1.66 is definitely a very complete ROM and will probably be the last major release prior to the much anticipated Windows 7.

I've always been happy with my HD2 as it's never given me any great problems, but with this release it's now a very, very good smartphone! :)
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
That's a feature. It tells you for which sms you are replying to.
[HD2 General] bibbe:
hahahaha..... it would have been a good idea to put this long time back but now that we have coversation mode i like to get rid of this feature.......
[HD2 General] tonyblack:
There's a problem with that synopsis. the last message is being displayed in the 'Reply' text entry box, which means you have to delete it letter by letter before you can type your response.:(
[HD2 General] Jim Coleman:
I'm seeing three improvements in 1.66;

1. Keyboard is finally useable, I'm not making so many mistakes now, looks like the sensitivity has been dialled down a bit

2. Responsiveness after switching on and sliding to unlock - thus far no 20 second freeze-ups

3. They've put the task manager into the start menu

So far so good!
[HD2 General] donSjon:
and the dutch version is still not availlable yet :-(
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
I did not know that. I have the sms hotfix with the new sms app version and for me it only selects the last sms. It does not include it in the reply itself. Maybe check some options...
[HD2 General] Archer:
For me, it selects the last message, as you described (which I don't actually like, but hey-ho), but it's not included in the reply. I just tap in the textbox and the message is no longer hilighted.

I've not heard of any options to include the original message in a reply for SMS ever! It'd be a pretty dumb thing to do really, wouldn't it. Has anyone else had this issue?
[HD2 General] arxx:
No, for me, when I enter a sms thread, it doesn't highlight any message, I can just start to type after i've selected the textbox
[HD2 General] Archer:
That's strange. I believe the default behaviour is to hilight the message you're replying to (the one you tapped in the sense message tab).

Anyway, that's off topic.

Big thumbs up for this ROM, so I'm in agreement with the OP on that.
[HD2 General] Alisha:
"Thank you HTC"?? -Give me a f'ing brake man...

No way HTC deserves any thanks or credits!! Haha.. For what would that be?? For making their freaking device being able to send SMS more than 3 months into the launch? Not to mention a bunch of other bugs/instability issues and god knows how many new ones may surface with 1.66 (crossing my fingers that's not the case).

And the customer service and updates pipeline isn't much better. Releasing hotfix after hotfix, taking them off again quickly after finding out they screw up more things than they fix. And all with no info to the user about what's going on and what they try to fix other than a nothing-saying pathetic description like "This update will make your life more bright by letting you keep in touch with your loved ones at any time of the day bla bla bla...". HD2 is a device with some impressive hardware specs and HTC definitely deserves some points for that, but in my opinion that's all...

I think if there is any message that should go through to HTC, this should be it!
[HD2 General] xwaiz:
add Hong Kong to your list. :)
[HD2 General] arxx:
I'm still happy.

They used a long time for getting it right, BUT they tired many times. They have released two hot fixes, and now a new ROM. I believe the reason for sms stucs were complex, since it was so sporadic who got the issue.

Every time i've mailed HTC customer service, i've got an answer the same day.

I still salute HTC! :)
[HD2 General] Jim Coleman:
One thing to be wary of, after flashing and re-synching with your PC, if you then synch with MyPhone, it appears to overwrite your files (excel, word etc) with the older ones from MyPhone.
[HD2 General] Batas:
Thanks for waht?

Agree with Alisha here. Thanks for what? For a buggy device? I just left mine at the store. Same bugs as many with the screen.
[HD2 General] Smygflik:
The only thing im missing with this ROM was a fix for the Audio Booster shutting down randomly, else it works as it should.
[HD2 General] de Wolfe:
Done! :D :D
[HD2 General] gabbs:
if you are having any problems after flashing,just do it again..it will work..
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
That makes it worse, not better. They release the phone in such a buggy state that it cannot properly handle even something as basic as sending and receiving SMS messages. They release an SMS hotfix, but it doesn't fix all the bugs with SMS messages. They release a second SMS hotfix, which still doesn't fix all the bugs with SMS messages. Now they've released a new ROM which (maybe, at the fourth attempt) has finally produced a phone that can reliably send and receive texts. And you're saluting them for that?! :eek:

Even a single software release in which an aspect of phone operation as basic as texts doesn't work properly is unpardonably sloppy; three releases like that in a row (four, if you count the first ROM upgrade) is almost unbelievable. What on Earth is HTC's Quality Assurance team doing?!

If the 1.66 ROM pans out, then that's a good thing; and if you now get a lot pleasure out of using your HD2, great. But you shouldn't let HTC off the hook. If people go around congratulating them for taking three or four attempts just to get text messaging to work, they'll end up going the same way as Nokia (and I presume no one here wants that!). You should be condemning them in them in the strongest possible terms for their wholly unacceptable performance; that's what they need to hear.
[HD2 General] romac:
I suppose you can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time lol
[HD2 General] freyberry:
I see some exaggeratedly positive people, thanking HTC for something that's a matter of course (fixing bugs).

I also see some very negative people never stopping the whining and complaining.

And I foresee another war between those people coming. The negative people will declare those happy with their device fanboys, despite that they're only trying to bring a bit of common sense to a forum of whiners. All the whining about non-existing problems like the difference between US and Europe versions is really ridiculous. On the other hand, it's certainly OK to complain when there are real problems like the SMS bug. But it's also right to be happy when they're fixed and a thanks for some matter of course is better than a complaint about a problem that doesn't exist.

Now, flame on!
[HD2 General] arxx:
Well.. I think since the sms issue has been so sporadic, that it might has been a really complex one to solve for all users, which HTC really have tried to get to the bottom of..

The fact that they DID release two hotfixes, indicates that they worked hard on this, but unfortunately, the bug were still present at some phones (some users stated that the bug went away after hotfix #2)

I would still like to thank HTC for working with us here, and making the best out of WM 6.5.
[HD2 General] buffystar:
That just what Jesus said sir :D
[HD2 General] max1274:
Well said, I agreed with your whole post - this is the ROM my phone should have had from day 1, but now that it's here, I really appreciate it.
[HD2 General] novalistic:
Just presume hTC, use us as Beta Tester !! :D:D

Finally got this SMS stuck in outbox FIXED !! :cool:
[HD2 General] Prom1se:
I agree on this one, htc makes a lot of screw ups. Getting my device replaced.... :S for god sake let it be a good one for now.
[HD2 General] donwhann:
iv only had my phone 3 weeks and ill be doing the upgrade later, but im scared.....my phone works pretty good now but i need the latest firmware and iv never done this before. what do i need to back up...? and how...lol
[HD2 General] Prom1se:
You can backup you phone from contacts to text messages from software to hardware (well that last one not but okey needed the sentence to fit lol) with spb backup, I use it alot and its a nifty tool!
[HD2 General] gabbs:
what about the ppl who don't know where to download stuff to fix this buggy device?
[HD2 General] Prom1se:
They can take a course, its called "How do I download stuff for my buggy device..." :p
[HD2 General] arxx:
They have to get it fixed at a cellphone repair center. The same with i.e. Nokia. Many of those get fixed,but only needed a SW app, which you could do yourself with pressing *#0000#.. so no difference there...
[HD2 General] novalistic:
When we first anxiously wanted the HD2 to be ready as early as possible, now we got the Device earlier than expected.

What are we to complaint?

A device with integration of SENSE (Started with Android OS) but screw up the SMS issue.

A extremely fast processor with Short Battery Life.

What else are we got to face, more problem on the way?

Since we paid for the device, be happy with it and you will feel better. If there are some more BUGs, get hTC to fix it for us. This is what they should do . .

For Me, I STILL LOVE MY BABY T8585 :cool: :cool: :cool:
[HD2 General] donwhann:
:p:p:p

good man, im going to download that program now. i just need to save my contacts and messages really, ill just re-install the games i have as i have them saved on my pc. i take it the update wipes the memory card clean too?. thanks for the help.......
[HD2 General] Prom1se:
Nope, you can backup it to your mem card. You can erease the phone yourself how to is to turn the phone OFF then press at the same time the to vol buttons (vol up and vol down) and press briefly on the power button there will be a screen with large beams and you can press the vol up key for setting back the factory settings and another one for reboot.

(the phone is back to factory settings, the mem card is NOT cleared.)

If im wrong correct me.
[HD2 General] kaospiloten:
Jepp, Great work HTC :D:D I love my HD2 now
[HD2 General] djngal:
i think it doesnt wipe the memory card, but just in case u can always take it out and replace it after the update ;)

be sure to delete any installed programs from the memory card though ;)
[HD2 General] leftkats:
lol... well said!! if they cannot download a fix, why did they even buy such a complex phone in the first place????

Off-topic here but many people that have problems with wm phones is because they don't know how to use them properly... for instance, my annoying neighbour and big show-off guy, bought a Diamond 2 only because he went in a shop and wanted to get the most expensive phone that was available. He is such an idiot and so clueless of technology and as expected he says the phone is crappy, slow etc etc...

Anyway I am happy with my hd2.. not a problem whatsoever and i do consider htc one of the best mobile companies..
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Perhaps a better question to ask is, what about those who have carrier-branded versions of the phone and are not willing to risk voiding their warranty by gold-carding or HSPL-ing it?
[HD2 General] donwhann:
cheers, im gonna go for the update now. thanks for the advice guys.....im sure to be back if it goes tits up lol..........
[HD2 General] de Wolfe:
Now I have to say that the longer I have to wait for my update I'm actually starting to HATE HTC for that! There is just no damn reason for not releasing the remaining ROMs... I mean, I have paid 600€ for the phone... HTC, I give you time until Sunday, then I will decide if I hate HTC or if I finnaly also wanna say "THX".... :mad: :mad: :mad:
[HD2 General] pedroxxx:
I wish I could say "Thank you HTC" ...

Sometimes I feel like I live in stoneage with this device. Sure, I love the design and TouchFlo3D but lack of reliability is taking this device down. Our ROM version is not released yet, and I am starting to bite my finger-nails :)

Marketing motto of this company is "Quietly briliant", but actually it should be "More quietly than briliant" :)

But anyway I love this device so I can't wait to say my thanks :)
[HD2 General] donwhann:
right, iv done the update and it went sweet, but do i need to update the camera with the hotfix again or should this update have fixed the issue...?

can someone explain me why when i pres down key it acts lik i`m pressing left key and when i press left sometimes goes down and sometimes goes left?is any solution.is keypad damaged?and when i pres one of two keys it sounds like i`m pressing more keys sametime.

thnx
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Semseddin:
I am having a similar issue with my prophet's keypad. It doesn't act reserve like yours but some of the buttons don't function at all. Center key, UP , Right keys aren't functioning. Anyway, i've disassembled the phone 5 times to solve this issue but it just doesn't work. I am sure that my keypad board is %100 functional.

For your problem, i can suggest to dissamble the phone and check if the keypad flex connector is well connected. If that doesn't help, your keypad board might need replacement.

Hello,

I want to flash a new ROM to my Kaiser, and I have Windows 7 on my desktop.

Is there a problem with flashing with Windows 7?

Thanks in advance!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stuntdouble:
No problem whatsoever as long as your drivers are up to date and you flash as administrator. And make sure it's HardSPL'd.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pmeswani:
I have been able to do it on Windows 7 32-bit without any problems. The only thing I can say is to make sure that you have the Windows Mobile Pack installed (I think there is a link on this site for the driver pack).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] YevgenyEfter:
Thanks! Just wanted to make sure there is no problem with it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Phil_123:

I have several folders with personal stuff in my N1's SD card, and I have a hard time every time I want to open them because the card is full of other folders that individual apps have created.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lamsebamsen:
I too would love a cab for having at least 3 calendar entries on the homescreen...

I don't get it why HTC haven't utilized the big screen better.

No need for such a big clock.

What I would like is a smaller clock in the same design as HTC's, and then with room for 3 calendar entries underneath.

Just like MaxManilla, but without having to install MM.

I don't like it, because all the settings is placed on the homescreen itself.

Hi,

I rooted my N1 and installed a flashlight app (N1 Torch) that uses the phone's LED flash. It warns you that continuously using the flash might break it, though.

What has been your experience? Does "continuous use" mean "hours", "minutes" or just "more than the 0.5 seconds the flash is supposed to turn on when you make a photo"?
[Nexus One General] eug89:
I think that using it for a couple of minutes would be fine, the problem is that if it gets too hot it could damage the the phone especially the camera. I remember that I installed a similar program on my nokia n70 and several times happened that by accident i turned on the led while the phone was in my pocket, I only noticed that when i started to feel something burning in my pocket:D Now my n70's led and camera doesn't work anymore... so just be carefull not to turn on the led by accident
[Nexus One General] UmbraeSoulsbane:
I had read that the LED flash was designed for quick bursts. If that is true than constantly running it could - at least - burn out the LED bulb. I doubt is it user replacable, so that is not a good thing.

I have hoped to use Torch too, but have decided its just not worth it. I will just use the lit up screen as a flashlight.
[Nexus One General] hks18psigst:
Yeah.. I'm thinking about uninstalling torch I get random clicking after I turn the app off
[Nexus One General] DarkLord7854:
It's an LED.. by default LEDs are low-power, have low-heat emission and super long lifetimes. They also tolerate turning on/off repeatedly for extended periods of time.

I somehow doubt you could do any damage to the phone/LED.
[Nexus One General] bradsh1:
Has anyone even heard of doing damage this way, or is this just speculation and ass-covering in case something goes wrong?
[Nexus One General] britoso:
my old sony erricson w810i LED flash lasted for atleast an hour of continuous use with no ill effect.
