[Windows Phone 7 General] satchef1:
This is the thing though, it may have started off like that, but now HTC use TouchFlo and Sense to push their brand. The HTC brand is actually becoming quite big and it's all because they've been allowed to piggy back off Microsoft and Google for the past few years. I think that's one of the reasons why there is no longer UI customisation, Microsoft want to sell their brand and their services rather than provide the frame work for someone else.

I can see HTC making WP7 devices, but I doubt they'll put much effort behind it. They'll focus on pushing the HTC brand through Android and Sense UI. LG are my bet for MS's closest WP7 manufacturer, they've been struggling to gain traction in the high-end market.
[Windows Phone 7 General] NetRipper:
Microsoft will keep maintaining Windows Mobile 6.5.x for the business market (as Windows Phone 7 is not geared towards business at all). So if HTC wants to keep using HTC Sense, they can extend their sense interface even further and customize 6.5.x all the way. I'm just not sure if HTC will see profit in that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] rouzb3h:
Interesting topic ... i too had asked this question ...

but i would say, even if htc cant find a way to customize the interface of wp7 (with manila or sense), people would still prefer to buy a wp7 phone from a brand like htc rather than LG or samsung ...

Why wouldnt they? htc is far better in producing pda and WinMo phones than other brands.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gerryjoson:
Not entirely true imo, HTC spent quite a long time giving us underpowered qualcomm hardware with no drivers, the likes of Asus, O2 were giving us better PXA cpu's and generally better features, I've yet to see any pda phone with more features than my XDA Flames...despite it having the crappiest battery life ever, there's nothing wrong with samsung either, they at least seem to be able to fit a half decent camera which HTC still fail at in my opinion....at least with a ghastly locked OS like wp7, features and hardware will become more of a selling point for manufacturers....just a pity microsoft is dictating capacitive screens, bing buttons, and their gigantic kiddy interface, so the hardware difference will be kinda moot because everybody is forced to use it like they want.....I mean how many variations can you make of something as gimped as wp7 ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] C:Sharp!:
You're not up to date! ;)

HD2, Desire and Legend have great cameras (made by Samsung :D).
[Windows Phone 7 General] gerryjoson:
Probably not, but why do HD2 pictures and video look like poo compared to an Omnia 2, even if it's camera hardware is made by Samsung ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] C:Sharp!:
Actually, the HD2 takes better pictures. There's a comparison thread somewhere in the HD2 forum.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gerryjoson:
Reading anything in the HD2 forum is kinda like a forgone conclusion....if you get my drift...

Maybe start a thread in the HD2 forum about how great the HD2 camera is, as we're getting off the thread topic here.

IT WILL BE UNREAL

Latest I have seen is Phone will do 3D TV, Comes with 3D Avatar on the Internal Memory. Gonna be able to do Holographic Keyboard that allows for real typing like a regular keyboard. with a 1.5 Dual Core CPU, and a Nvidia Mobile GPU.

It really is an unreal device, the sad part is it, cant copy and paste and it cant do Multitasking. and It has to use MS UI.

Hi all

when replying to SMS via the HTC sense interface the font is very very small

how can i increase it

the problem begin after installing multilingual support in Hebrew

Thanks
[HD2 General] Bib_x:
Which rom do you have on your HD2? This issue appeared on some cooked-rooms, i think it was on 1.66.

Try a new rom and all will be good again.
[HD2 General] jzamero:
i have the original ROM 1.66 WWE
[HD2 General] Bib_x:
I know that this issue was in some cooked 1.66 romss, maybe it was in stock-rom, too.

There was no fix for this - i think only way to fix this is to flash a new rom.
[HD2 General] lvon:
I had the same issue + I could not compose nor reply e-mail messages. I found no answer on inet so I tried to rollback my instalations since ROM flashing to 1.66.405.2

I was lucky with my first uninstall - language support of Czech by SunnySoft InterWrite. Since then it's working corretly but in English.
[HD2 General] abmantis:
When composing the SMS, if you go to Menu->Text Size and change it to a bigger value, doesn't it help?
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] kadison:
Just wondering if someone can confirm the above?

I have this skin. It's more firm rubber than gel (and brilliant if anyone is wondering :))

It probably adds 1-1.5mm thickness around the phone, so total extra front to back would be between 2 and 3mm. How tight is the fit on these holders?

Many thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] peterc10:
You certainly will not be able to use the Brodit mount with any skin. It fits very snugly to the bare phone, which then ensures that it can hold the phone firmly even in landscape mode
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] kerzo:
Brodit fits perfectly as mentioned above, it doesn't take too long to take the case off though (which is what I used to do before ditching the case altogether).
[P3600 General] rugprince:
I made three calls yesterday and I enabled the loudspeaker while calling because my hands are tied up on the keyboard encoding a project.

I called another classmate (fourth time and still on loudspeaker). This time, the one I am calling to has a ringback tune...I noticed that the music on her ringback sounds quirky or husky or something that it is unpleasant to the ears...Until I noticed that even my message alert tone is also the same...

Is it because that the very loud music of the ringback busted my speakers?

My mp3 sounds are now also sounding weird...So annoying... :confused::confused::confused:

Is there any other thing I can do before i can conclude that the hardware is already damage? Thanks...

How do you get files to show up in the "My TV" area in media player? I've tried renaming video files with all kinds of extensions but nothing works.

:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sandrobber:
Answer

Your need windows media center edition then you can transfer your recorded tv. You might be able to convert mpg or avi to either dvr-ms or wtv then use Windows media player to sync it with your phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Robert's PDA:
Thanks sandrobber. So are you saying that I can't just change the extension to say "wtv or dvr-ms" and have media player update the library and have it be in there? I would have to use Media center to transfer the files over? Lets say I did that and the file is transferred to the phone and everything is okay. Lets say the file is named "conan.wtv". If I reset my phone or wanted to move that file to another phone can't I just copy that file to the new phone and have media player do a library update and it be in there?

Hello

i have a ASUS P735 with wm6 on him

i've searched for a wm6.1 or 6.5 rom but didn't find any

i've seen that asus does not have any suport plan(newer rom) for p735 so i'm asking for help here

can someone build a custom wm6.1 or wm6.5 for this device?

yes,thx for reply

i think that not only asus but rom developers too are ignoring this model/rom

until now i had have a good opinion about this site,now.......
[HD2 General] tudogg:
first things first: the hd2 is my very first windows mobile device. i've already read the wiki and searched the forum/the internet for help, but i didn't find a solution for my problem. i'm also not a newcomer when it comes to flashing (i've gained some experience from my psp/wii/nokia n82/creative zen).

so i got my htc hd2 a few days ago and one of the first things i tried was flashing a rom (i didn't like the t-mobile branding).

i had absolutely no problems installing hspl (this forum was very informative) and flashing the artemis rom (i strictly followed the instructions), which i found in the rom developement sub forum. since everything seemed to work fine, i started adding my contacts and some applications, still no problems.

but after a while one of the apps seemed to have crashed and the phone became unresponsive.

i removed the battery and turned my phone back on, but it was stuck in the boot screen (the very first screen on which it says "r g d" in red at the bottom). since i didn't know what to do, i simply flashed the artemis rom another time and so the story repeats: at first everything worked fine and after a while the phone got stuck again.

after 4 tries i decided to switch to the shock star r9 rom (also found on xda), which also seemed to work fine at first, but it didn't take long for the phone to freeze again. i took out the battery again and turned the phone back on. this time (to my surprise) it didn't get stuck on bootup, but instead it (automatically) performed a hard reset. the phone now does a hardreset everytime i turn it back on, which makes it pretty much unusable...

since i'm getting REALLY tired of adding my email accounts/favorites/application shortcuts (by now i'm just installing them on the sd card, so i don't have to reinstall them)/facebook associations for my contacts/etc and i thought i'd better ask for help.

does anyone know what causes this issue and/or how i can solve this problem? help would be appreciated!

and since i'm here, what should i use to backup my phone (once it's running perfectly)? i already tried pim backup (sadly it doesn't create a backup of everything) and spb backup (freezes on registry recovery). would it be possible to create a rom that contains ALL of my information (settings/contacts/favorites/applications/registry tweaks/...)?

tl;dr:

my hd2 automatically performs a hardreset on bootup, how do i fix it?

please ignore any grammar errors, i'm tired and not a native english speaker
[HD2 General] saziz77:
I have the same problem exactly regarding self-hard-reset. I still did not find any reasonable cause for this problem which is starting really to push on my nerves :(
[HD2 General] Moandal:
This sounds to me like a corrupt file system, which can happen after ROM flashes. I would try this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=644781
[HD2 General] tudogg:
@Moandal: thanks for the answer. i just flashed the shock star rom again and the phone boots up normally again. but i really doubt that it will stay like this, unless i know what caused the problem. next time it happens, i'll try the program from your link.

but if i'm not mistaken, that program also hardresets the phone (correct me, if i'm wrong), so i could just flash a rom instead and that's what i'm trying to prevent (as i said, i don't want to have to enter my personal stuff again and again and again...).

what exactly could cause a corrupt file system? could it be a problem with the rom(s) or am i just doing something completely wrong?
[HD2 General] kilrah:
A "simple" custom ROM flash only overwrites the ROM's contents without prior erasing, which on the HD2 has been found to sometimes cause trouble like the continuous hard resets you've suffered.

The solution is a full erase of the ROM before flashing the new ROM, which this mtty command does. So, you obviously can't do it without hard resetting/reflashing.
[HD2 General] tudogg:
@kilrah: ok, that made things much clearer. i'm going to use the program posted above and flash the rom again, i hope that will fix future issues.

thanks for the fast help, guys
[HD2 General] Jambo17:
I had the same issues, at first I thought it was the artiums rom but having done MTTY walkthrough I'm 1 week into the Miri rom without much issues (apart from the odd program crash)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
since it started pretty much straight away on the first rom, id be a little concerned that it might be an issue with the phone.

if it continues after you mtty/task 29 then id flash back to stock, including spl, and monitor that for a few days.
[HD2 General] tudogg:
@samsamuel: since my last post the phone crashed only once (i was using opera 9.7 when it became unresponsive again), but this time it didn't perform a hard reset!

the main issue seems to be solved and that's good enough, for the time being.

if the problem occurs again, i'll follow your advice.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
opera 9.7 - have you moved the cache to the memory card? I've had a lot of freezes the last few days with opera 9 7, turns out it was cos the cache was on the sd card (default 2 gig that came with it).

moved the cache to the phone yesterday, not a crash in 30 hours.
[HD2 General] tudogg:
no, but i was actually going to. won't do it now, obviously ;)
[HD2 General] VenomLugz:
please help cause it went crash and hardreset by itself over again..... how can I fix this??

[HD2 General] jimsteach:
I think your right, it does look like a HD2, of course it doesn't mean ****, as with most advertisements it will all be fabricated, its probably just a HD2 running a video of series 7. Will wind people up nicely though
[HD2 General] dnwizard:
Yes, but I was just intrigued to see the new OS running fine even though it lacks some major hardware as per Microsoft.;)
[HD2 General] jimsteach:
However on the off chance that it is running something live it does mean there is some form of test rom out there....somewhere. . . . . but i doubt it
[HD2 General] brynweb:
Silverlight app.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Except that there are 99% chances the phone is actually off and dead or displaying a plain blue screen to allow image blending in postprocessing ;)
[HD2 General] madbird:
i dont think that the pictures you see on the screen are real. usaly such things are made in post production. its much to complicated to film this situations in real life. so i think its no indicator for w7 ore not on hd2 anyhow.

regards mad
[HD2 General] ephestione:
As much as I hate to up a not-so-useful thread ;)

The idea is old... there has been a link posted somewhere here on the hd2 forums to a MS stage or something (and that was at least a month ago), where an infomercial for WM7 was done with a girl holding to her ear what definitely looked like an hd2, or at least a photoshopped one.

That doesn't bring you anywhere, since we have had different news elsewhere from an "official" source (check the other thread reagrding it) saying othrwise that WM7 will not be for hd2.

Anyhow, if you are so desperate to install a MS iphoneos wannabe on your already perfectly working WM6.5 hd2, I think there will be for sure a cooked rom with WM7 sooner or later. Afterall they are selling on aftermarket qtek 2020 alpines with winmo 6.5 on them....

I'm pretty sure Desire only allows up to 32GB, wich is quite alot but if you wan't mre, the only way is to have another micro sd, maybe tucked away under the battery cover and switch them when required!!!
