Yep, you should be fine. AFAIK, the only difference between the NA and EU versions of the GSM Hero is the radio frequency, which I'm pretty sure the OS is ignorant of.

If you want to be safe though, keep your eye on this:

http://www.htc.com/ca/support/hero-telus/downloads/

I don't foresee the European updates being released any earlier than the Telus update, unless there's some hangup to do with the Google Navigation localization.

I would personally wait for the Telus update myself. Or root your phone and start using custom ROMs. If you do that, I can guarantee you'll get the 2.1 update whenever HTC releases it for any GSM Hero.

Come on now i am not the only one that has the problem with youtube not working at all... Now im not super crazy about youtube, but i occationally do use it. It wont play ANY videos. Whats up?

Anyone know of a fix or anything?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chuckhriczko:
If the app is not working sometimes you can use the browser to go to http://m.youtube.com. Click a video and it should play in your player.

Hello,

sorry for my bad english, i'm french.

I've got an HTC magic / sapphire / G2 and I've changed my housing.

But during the operation i've broke the small stickers on the upper back, these with electric conectors.

Since it i've a lot of 3G connection issues and no more GPS.

I think this is the GPS antenna.

Is it this ?

If it's that, how I could fix it ?

Where can I find this part in spare ?

Thanks a lot.

Okay. So, we have the, what's your favorite hard liquor, now, what's your favorite BEER?

Mine, I will have to say, is a new one I just tried tonight. It is probably the smoothest, best tasting beer I've had.

Dundee - Honey Brown

Oh. My. God. It is amazing in taste.

If it weren't for Dundee, my favorites would be either Shiner Black or Shiner Bock. I love dark beer.

Hi

I've got my leo on order to arrive monday.

I have an elf atm with stuff like s2u2 and BatteryStatus Today-Plugin.

Is there still a need for these apps on leo ?

Is there an issue with battery life - time between charges - that is not resolved by timing out comms items - i'm thinking of the cpu profiling of batterystatus.

Any pointers in the right direction most helpful.

Thanks
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] aaryaputra:
I have tried ALL 6.5 ROMs

but it seems these have issues with battery drain

- whatever the reason, I don't know -

Battery lasts ONLY half a day - that too standby

You can actually see the battery percentage %

decrease every two/three minutes

and NO other software installed after flashing

(I flash Stock ROM then flash Cooked ROM then

I HardReset 3 times - please keep in mind)

- BUT -

I install Stock ROM 6.1 Professional - NO ISSUES

I install Androkkid as alternate UI

on the Stock ROM 6.1 Professional - NO ISSUES

I install other softwares like TotalCommander and

QuickMenu, Nitrogen for music, plus a few games

yet NO ISSUES

Some of these are good ROMs - Fast & Stable -

but ONLY & ONLY this battery issue puts one off

Is it only me or are there others in the same boat
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] gacon1000:
Dude.. Have You tried this one? :P

I recommend Build 21619

http://www.mediafire.com/?1ucukuzcohm

I've got no problem with my battery
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] aaryaputra:
@gacon1000 - Re: I recommend Build 21619

Hello My Friend

I have not tried this one - I have only downloaded the latest

from this link the build 23620 - But I will try this as last attempt

I like lecamtran's D10 D11 D12 - all stable BUT the battery issue

Even the PhamQuang ROMs have this battery issue I experience

Let's see - tonight I will try this ROM with a fully charged battery

and get back to you tomorrow

Same Time, Same Channel - We'll be right back after a short break

;)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] aaryaputra:
@gacon1000 - Re: I recommend Build 21619

BTW

Is the start menu button on this ROM

at the bottom or at the top???

I like start button at the bottom since

it is easier to operate the phone

But if start button is at the top - fine

as long as I get good battery life

:)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] saurabh88:
may be u shoould try battery calibration
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] aaryaputra:
Battery Calibration

Saurabh-bhai, Kem Chho

I will surely try this Battery Calibration

It seems to be a procedure worth following

once in a month or two months

But then why do 6.1 ROMs give more juice

than 6.5 ROMs - THAT is my issue -

6.1 ROMs give a 24 hour+ charge

6.5 ROMs give only 6-10 hours

There is surely something about these 6.5

ROMs that are causing more battery drain
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] gacon1000:
Yes, start button at the bottom.. I like it too :D
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] saurabh88:
ok...

lets see

when i had my gene i and all other memb.. have max battery backup with 6.5 rom

but herr is different story...

ad i can see we both elfinand opal user faced problem of battery drain in6.5...

yes no body still understand..

but have u ever tried adbance config. tools or my best hdtweak?

they have settings for battery life..

i gain almost 1and half on 6.5 with Hdtweak...

try it and see..

Hi,

I've read all your posts that proves this forum is very fruitful and many members are here to help.

I don't know if someone shares me my opinion about unnecessary move to install 6.5 ROM. So far I've barely seen a good cooked ROM without major complaints like aaryaputra mentioned. I'm aware that it is good to change, but can't you use some shell software to change the look of your phone and stay happy?

It is just an opinion and frankly speaking, does the "start button" position deserve baring all bugs in the cooked version?

I use SPB mobile shell with the elegance pack, and it is adorable by all means. I know ROMs of new OS is very elegant even in functionality, but since the manufacturer himself doesn't provide an update (even with charge), I guess it is because of the expected degradation in performance.

Am I correct? Hope to see others opinion.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jagan2:
Welcome buddy to the forum yeah u r somewhat correct use some shell and be happy but then i or may be we all upgraded to wm because of two things... more userfreindly specially wm 6.5.x and new functionality like internet explorer etc.....

If you just got your opal then i must suggest you first use ur opal as it is for atleast a month or atlest two weeks. And explore windows mobile using diff app etc.... learn more then go for a upgrade....:)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jigar2speed5095:
I have been using SPB shell since past 1 month, that's how you keep your hunger satisfied ... :D
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jagan2:
Lol spb mobile shell cant provide me the future i need like ie6 with flash support etc...
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jigar2speed5095:
No offense to you my friend, i know you have been working day and night to make the roms stable and your contribution is unquestionable but do you think most of the users really care about IE 6 ?

All i can do right now is install Opera or other browser and call it a day, apart from that 6.1 is quiet capable OS and like i said SPB shell usually does the trick of making the OS as fancy as Apple (atleast that much i am satisfied)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jagan2:
There is always a counterpart of anything in this world so is here many really want ie6 and many dont, you know the real reason i upgraded my touch viva to wm 6.5 which i got newly was because of ie 6. And yes its true opera mobile is better (not 10 its slow compared to 9.7) but there are some particular site which will not open on opera or any browser in this world except ie thats why many commercial company still use ie. And about other things i like the look of wm 6.5.x i today just tried wm 6.1 again yeah to be honest it was fast but its gui and functionality is really worst. The same speedy rom i made with many tweaks etc for wm 6.5.3 latest build 23102 its as fast as wm 6.1 plus full features i love it... but again as you know i cant share that rom coz of that wifi bug. Since i do not need bluetooth so i removed bluetooth from my rom and now everything works but i think many do need that here. :) Anyways we had a nice discussion on this topic coz of this i resaw wm 6.1 and was successful in making much faster rom :D
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jigar2speed5095:
See!!! you ditto my thoughts now.

1) You don't need WIFI and bluetooth, so you don't have it on your rom, but i cannot work without them, so i am sticking with Stock rom.

2) You like the functionality of WM: 6.5 so can't do without it. I have yet to find anyproblem with WM6.1 so no problems here.

Above mentioned points only prove that people here have different requirements of their phones, some people need lots of feature, so people need balanced and some people use it for only calling and messaging. :D
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] wbadry:
I'm quite happy with this discussion. I've been developing windows applications for 10 years, but can't deny that in mobile world, I'm an infant.

Besides the IE flash enabled browser, what are the most critical features that is not in 6.1?

Also is there any version of wm 6.5 that doesn't drain the battery? I'll be happy to accept recommendations.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jagan2:
No buddy you misunderstood me that wifi bug is only with the htc touch viva its not with any of the htc devices take elf which is almost same as opal but it has no problem but some people have solved it, iam unable so i removed just bluetooth others are working. Although i wish i had bluetooth too.

People need balanced one and calling i totally agree even i need but there is some prob while coooking thats why i dont share the rom which i use in my phone....got it? :D overall i can say that you can make wm 6.5 as faster as wm 6.1 or even better. Really beleive me i will try to make a video of how its working on my device its just lighting fast....:D

Beside IE 6 flash enabled browser wm 6.5 has some core upgrades and now we have 6.5.3.3 which which has more improvements. Wm 6.5 is more finger freindly, every thing just got more good like threaded email, more clearer fonts. And the best thing is it has widget support but right now we have very less widgets if you are interested you can develop some.

See i have attaches some images from build 23102, it has new font rendering feature.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] CatonElMenor:
Battery Drain

Hi There. I´ve been following the conversation and....

I have also changed my ROM from WM 6.1 to WM 6.5. I did it because I wanted a better shell without the neef of using SPBShell. I hope that I coud save memory and proccessor.

What did I get? Just the opposite. WM 6.5 has a lot of mem usage (6.1 averaged 40% and WM 6.5 60% without any application runnig) and I red thats the cause of battery drainning.

I tryed killing some mem proccesses with SKT Tools but it didnt work.

I thing I will change for 6.1 with a nice cooked ROM.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jagan2:
Okay with my experience till now i tell you the cause and solution of battery problem

1. Battery drains quickly due to more usage of resources, in wm 6.1 there is less resource to be used, no graphics that requires more ram. But its opposite in wm 6.5 and above what happens is in wm 6.5 and above there is large about of graphical components so gwes.exe most of you have probably noted with some taskmanager that this takes the most of ram, so it is large because it needs more ram to display the graphics.

2. Sometimes rom cheifs what they do is they use rom files as modules (okay it is little advanced for normal users) in simple words the battery also depends on the cheif i mean how they cook and what they cook cooking some type of files gives high storage but at the same time it consumes ram. Thus the resource.

Now the possible solutions

1. This problem yet to be clarified. But some temp solution are there one of the basic solution is use ur taskmanager and particulary the clean ram app. When u dont use any app close it it will save the ram (thus the resource) i prefer q taskmanager that is quick and accessible from any screen and some of my favourite are xtask but its little complicated at starting, but the best i would say is arkswitch can be accessed from any screen closes the app and istantly ram release is shown.

2. As One of the above mem said battery calibration

3. Due to more graphics more ram is consumed thus quicker battery drain so if we cant come up to the level of wm 6.1 then atleast we can come close to it. Like i have shown you one screenshot of getting 82 mb free ram in wm 6.5.3.

CatonElMenor I want your particular line to quote

So you say it consumes 60% ram, yes its true but and the same time the rom can consume less ram than wm 6.1 yes somedays ago i used phamquang rom dont remember the version in that only 60% ram was consumed. So i can surely say that its 100%possible that you can get up to the level of wm 6.1 or even better.

@All: All ppl's i know u are waiting for the rom but iam more impatient than you to release it so plz have little more patience. For me its 100% bug free rom (but u never know, people use there phone in diff situation so if there is a bug we will come to know eventually, for me as i said its totally bug free)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:

hey,

so i lost my touch hd2 :( finally got over it. my insurance company is going to give me the value of the phone £499.99 according to play.com

my question is should i wait for another phone? or get another hd2. i loved the hd2, obviously somethings werent perfect but hey every phone is like that.

are there any upcoming phones that look exciting? saw the nexus one, but its kinda ugly !

i saw someone posted the US version has higher specs and im going to california mid feb, as long as its unlocked i could get this.

thanks!
[HD2 General] DMAND:
Personally I would grab another HD2, but if I were you I'd wait until Microsoft announce whatever they are going to announce at Mobile World Conference on the 15th. Then make a more informed purchase :p
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
If you loved the HD2, get another one :) You can always wait longer and longer adn perhaps something sweet will be announced soon. But then you'll have to wait some more weeks or months before it's actually released.

Wouldn't get the t-mobile usa version though since it's specifically made for them, using different bands then in europe so it's prolly useless here (for making calls and such at least ;) )
[HD2 General] Archer:
The HD2b has not had a release date. It's been rumoured to be some time in spring, so you've got quite a wait if you want that. Besides, you won't get 3G with it as it's specifically for TMO US. Basically, forget about that phone. The extra RAMAROM isn't really that big a deal anyway.

Get another HD2 ;)

Buy another HD2 for £403.50 from Amazon and keep the £95.50 towards a deposit when there really is a phone worth upgrading from the HD2 for. At the moment there isn't a great deal of choice, but in 6-12 months who knows what might be available?

With the latest official ROM, the HD2 really is a very good smartphone.

Hello.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask about this, but i'll just give it a try.

Recently my diamond started acting weird. Suddently some data wasn't there (Like contacts), and then after some time the phone freezes. Then i reeboot the phone by pressing the Reset button in the back, and then when it boots again, it is trying to make the firstboot screen again, but it cannot configure again because there is no more space for that. :S

Then i Re-flash the phone, and it works for like 3 hours and then Does the above again.

Anyone know what this can be, and if i can correct it?? I think it is some sort of hardware thing, but hope you guys know better :)

I know how to flash and some other things, but see me as a newbie (no fancy Words pleace :))

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] wahaho:
Hi

I don't know if your problem is similar to the I had, where my phone would freeze at a random point and resetting was the only option. After the reset the phone would delete everything on the main memory (including messages and contacts). After a month with reflashing different roms, I think I kind found a solution that I hope also works out for you:

1. Download the original stock rom from HTC:

http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483

2 Install it by following this guide:

The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread!! - Diamond Edition

by MysticGenius. (The method basically deletes everything and gives you kind of a fresh start)

3Now everything should hopefully be working smoothly and you are free to reflash it with your favourite rom

Good luck (^.^)
