The clear plastic over my camera (part of the rear cover to the phone) is cracked right along the sight line of the camera.

Does anyone know where to find a (hopefully cheap) replacement battery cover?
[Droid Eris Accessories] homer169:
Ebay had them for about $15.

It would be a good excuse to buy the big extended battery that comes with a cover.
[Droid Eris Accessories] TheAtheistReverend:
I knew someone would say that.

I just can't do it. I like the current shape and my seido case is so sexy!

Thanks for the input though! ;)

That's not the same as the one that comes with the phone. That one is glossy and isn't OEM.. I made that mistake already :o

It's only me that complain about the fact that in htc messaging fonts are really too small...

ok I know it's possible to increase fonts a bit when in conversation mode but if you start a new sms the size of the carachters is barely readable. And then sms' are really too mall in traditional mode...

it's no sense to display font for a reply in a certain size and for a new messagge (new recipient) in a smaller font size.

this is a bug!

any solution?

thanks!
[HD2 General] desmo_due:
ok...glad to see that only me don't like font size in htc messaging... :-)

I'm finally going to purchase an HD2 around tomorrow, but I'm buying used because I don't want to get burnt after paying US$700 for a brand new HD2. After all, I found a guy that's selling his HD2 and claims that he only used the device for only a week.

What sort of things should I look in a used HD2? All I can think about are just dead pixels, reception quality, vibration (call/sms/notification), buttons, all screen area touchable without dead region, the usual physical run down, and ram to see whether it's prepro or final product (448 MB RAM).

What's the difference between T8585 & T9193? Do I need to look out for it? The HD2 in question is bought from Singapore and it's a GSM model. But I'm taking full precautionary measure as gray market imports can be just as wild as a KIRF... Might not know if it's a Singapore or Hongkong bought HD2. It's not T-Mobile HD2 that's for sure, but what other identifiable factors that I need to look out for?
[Click General] raikan123:
Anyone if this is possible ?

i think there's a programm in market for this, but you should have a patched kernel :/

Yes there is i think.. search and ask for more on the developement department :)

Hi All

Been playing with Desire on weekend, and uderstood that WM 6 is totaly out of date, I loved Android from first hour of use it has a lots of programs in Android market with very eyecatching UI. Is there a possibility to have Android on HD2 ? I heard somewhere that in some countrys there is a 4G Android version of HD2.

Are there technical possibilitys for Android in HD2 in the future, or I need thinking of changing my LEO. :confused:

Thank for Any opinion

Martynas
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jfmckenna:
hey next time use the search, from what i gather the soonest release would be in 6 months but its likely that the phone wouldn't be fully functional, for example the wifi or camera might not work some people see a year or so but only time will tell.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Xaddict:
Crossed wires

You have been misinformed if you believe WM6.5 is out of date.

It is state of the art and has many benefits, especially when it is underneath the HTC sense interface.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hebbe:
so, please tell me, in which aspects is winmo 6.5.x out of date? :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Spoofy:
Ok I don't know about state of the art but take a hit of the ROM in my signature. And to MartynasRex download 'openmarket' check out some of those Apps and games, well ive got a fair few off the games list in these forums that keep up with the iphone!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ramalama:
I wan't android too, and WM is indeed out of date... There are no Apps, you get everyday freezes, its out of date... Android have 50000 Apps, and it fast like a charm...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hebbe:
i think there are even more apps out for winmo than for iphone and android!

(unfortunately??) they're not concentrated at one single spot, like the appstore.

and what aspect makes winmo out of date?!

just saying "it's out of date" isn't a serious argument :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] willow09:
I agree with WinMo 6.5 being way out of date, especially now compared to Android & Iphone. Winmo hides behind HTC Sense but if you strip that away its still just boring WinMo. WinMo 7 should be lots better though but I still get lots of fun out of my HD2, Loads of apps available to download from certain websites and you can play around with this thing to your hearts content, I mean I have flashed so many ROM's now its crazy but I love the fact I get to choose how my HD2 looks...... Be great to have android on this thing though.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jubas:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JAYLO420:
I ACTUALLY PEFER WINDOWS 6.5 WITH HTC SENSE MORE THAN ANDRIOD O.S. TO BE HONEST THE ONLY REASON WHY I LIKE THE ANDRIOD IS THERE APPS. I LIKE THE HTC HD2 BECUZ I CAN MAKE THE PHONE JUST LIKE I WANT IT. I WANT A IPHONE LOCKSCREEN WITH A WINDOWS MOBILE 7 INTERFACE AND A PIC OF A WATER PIPE MAKING A WATER PIPE SOUND EVERYTIME I TURN ON MY PHONE WELL THATS JUST SICK AND ESPECIALLY PRETTY MUCH HAVENT SEEN A PHONE THAT IS SO CUSTOMIZABLE ITS CRAZY. I HAVE TO SAY I DONT LIKE THE GAMES SOME ARE TO IPHONE STANDARDS BUT MOST ARE LADY KAKA . LETS ALL ADMIT ITS REALLY NOT ABOUT SELLING THE FASTEST DOPEST HARDWARE ITS ACTUALLY THE SOFTWARE. PEOPLE BUY IPHONES WHY?? BECUZ THERE USER FRIENDLY BUT MAINLY THE APPS AND ACESS TO CONTENT. SAME THING WITH ANDRIOD PHONES. BOTTOM LINE IN THIS DAY AND AGE GIMICS OR NEW HARWARE FEATURES(CAMERA,VIDEO RECORDER,WIFI,) WONT WORK ANYMORE ITS HOW MANY APPS THAT ARE IN THERE VIRTUA STORE THAT SUIT YOUR NEEDS:rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gjizaqin:
Being Android user for about half year now, i can say it's crazy unskinable. And about apps i can say most of them are bull****, some wallpaper apps, puzzle and copycat apps of others. Also keep in mind that many of the apps are not working on every android, they give you constantly Force closes everytime.

But at the end it ain't bad os, but not superior. Winmo need's some small update of 6.5 with better system optimization of buttons for better finger experience.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Gslick:
@ gjizaqin You are a troll, sorry to deliver these bad news to you.

www.youtube.com/user/exclusivegslick

Go see how to use android the real way. Sub while you are at it, I'll allow your trolling there.

Btw android has over 55k apps and it already outsells iphone OS. Windows is outdated in every possible way, and until win 7 mobile releases they are dead at least in the US. Thx.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] efjay:
Please go and learn how to research before buying a product, then you wont buy a device and then start crying its "out of date" and be asking for another OS to be ported to it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] juiceppc:
I would say WinMo is not as pretty and sometimes unstable. But it's only unstable because it can do so many things.

It would be cool to use Android on this though. I think Android is going to be too much for WinMo7 to overcome.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ForceField:
+1

I tried two Android phones The Hero wich I sold and the Nexus One (still with me but will sell it very soon).

Android is Good,very good but in matter of applications and Especially Memory management WinMo beats it.

The HD2 is so much more customizable
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MartynasRex:
Thats only my opinion, HD2 is my first phone with WM, earlyer I used couple of Symbian Sony-Ericssons, but I'm familiar with Win CE 5, and it's 6 years old, somehow WM 6.5 looks very the same. Ofcourse the HD2 is best phone at the moment in the market, huge screen, fast Snapdragon, exelent capactive screen, nice Sense UI. But when I tryed Desire it is so intuitive, that I got used to it in a couple of hours, everything it so in its place you just don't have to search for, its there where you expect to find it. When you try to do the same on HD2, sooner or later you get the WM 6 settings screen and its so CE 5, Sense is just a cover for WM 6, Android feels like it's a part of Sense ui.

My HD2 has all possible modifications from xda, on stock ROM, it doesn't stand close to "out of the box" one (best ones from Cookie "Cheers"). But I liked it more Android, so it would be nice to try/have Android on HD2.

BTW I used Serch not only in this section, and found Android dev thread, so everything is much clearier for me now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dkb218:
I hate to waken this idiot thread but

For anyone who thinks that Android is a better OS than WM, you should really have your head checked. The only reason Android is worth anything is because of the market and as someone stated, who give a heck about there being 100,000 apps if 99,999 are garbage?

Yes, I was an early user of Android. Yes, its still not finished. My G1 crashed 20 times a day. Still no apps 2 SD out the box. Still nothing near a good video player. A file manager that looks like a 3 year wrote the code for it.

I will place my stock HD2 up against any Stock Android device. No comparison. Android is only worth the money because of the App store. Without that Android sucks just as much as the iCrap.

By the way, is it me or do the AndroidFanBoyz here all seem to be under the age of 12?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NoSecks:
if so- then the apple fanboyz whould be under the age of 6...

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] hugo3370:
hi all,

i have my TD2 now for some months and it already happened several times that it reboots automatically. Not just once, but several times in a row and after 4, 5 or more reboots it comes to the screen to input the pin...

I do not know how this is triggered but it is very annoying!

I use WM6.5 and some user programs like TD2 Tools (2d), MobiReg, NaviComputer, KeePass, Free42 Decimal,...

The TD2 Tools info screen gives: ROM 2.16.404., Manila 2.1.19193517.2, OS Kernel version 5.2.21869

Is this problem known to anybody? Looking forward to your advice!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Not sure what the cause could be but a hard reset mey be the only fix.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Hi,

After 13 months, I'm now getting this spontaneous rebooting for about 4 times on the trot. It can happen mid-call or just whilst it's sat syncing with my PC. The reboot always seems to happen about 10 seconds after Sense has started.

I am on Stock WWE HTC 2.53 and Radio as per below. I haven't changed anything recently but this started happening yesterday. I did think it was connected with my SD card but I've swapped it for another good one of different capacity and no go either.

I have also tried a hard reset. This didn't fix it either as the rebooting started again after about 10 mins. All I had done was reached setting up a partnership and syncing.

I'm worried that my hardware may be damaged, though I don't understand how.

Really worried now.

John

PS My Diamond2 has just rebooted 4 times whilst I type this and it's connected via USB.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
I'd have to say that if you've hard reset and are on stock ROM, it would definitely indicate a hardware issue, as if something was triggering the soft reset button. Has the device gotten wet or anything?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Thanks for the reply. No not got wet or anything out of the ordinary. It started just last night whilst it had been sat for about 6 hours plugged into the HTC mains charger.

Looking at it more closely, it seems to happen 5 seconds after the data connection comes up. I guess Sense is checking the weather.

It has done 10 reboots now consecutively but every now and then it just seems to behave. This morning it was fine whilst I was out but it has been having rebooting episodes ever since I go home.

Oh well, I'll wait and see for a while and then panic. No money and the warranty won't be much use after a year........ Hmmmmm going to find the paperwork to check what the warranty actually is.

John
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Try removing your cities in your weather tab and maybe play with your network settings in Phone\Menu\Band
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Amazing! I was just about to post that switching to GSM only had stopped the rebooting.

This could only be temporary as I use a lot of HSDPA speed data. I decided to reflash the radio and now it seems fine on 3G. I'll keep an eye on it and report back in 24 hours.

I was thinking back to yesterday. There was a time when the wall charger was unplugged from the wall socket before removing the usb connector from my phone. Could that have caused a spike?

Thanks Bruce for taking an interest and the helpful advice.

Cheers

John

PS Cautiously happy now
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
It is possible but likely that caused a spike. Shouldn't matter which gets plugged in first, USB or charger.

Hopefully the issue is gone now.

Good luck.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Well, sadly, I spoke too soon.

It was fine all last evening with no reboots and frequent use on 3G.

This morning, after a sitting on standby for 9 hours, it started rebooting as soon as I turned it on to check email. Of course this was where it started downloading the weather as well as email etc.

The switch to GSM stopped it rebooting again, so I now need to confirm this is stable over time and then try further combinations of weather on/off and or older radios. Basically, I'll try anything as I have no choice right now and need the phone, email, web and satnav combination.

My wife has offered to sacrifice her shiny new Blackberry but she has finally joined the mobile email/web brigade and I don't want her to go back to a plain GSM phone. Plus, all my windows software would be written off before I'm ready to do that.

I'll report back if the situation improves although I think it's not going to get any better.

John
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Just an update in case it helps anyone else.

On GSM with GPRS data I have had no reboots but shortly after switching to 3G, I end up in the reboot loop.

I have tried new ROM, new radio ROM and new T-Mobile settings. Still the same.

I shall now wait out my contract using GSM until December, at least I can use WiFi at home. I'll then change to something new........ Android, WP7 or even Blackberry!

Thanks for the help. 10ish years of MS pda's have been fun and I've enjoyed playing with ROMs and software but maybe it's time to switch.

John
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
So, you've flashed back to your stock ROM and with nothing else installed, the rebooting still occurs? Is the stcok ROM pulled from HTC via your S/N?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Progress????

Hi Bruce,

Yes, I have downloaded and tried the original 6.5 ROM and Radio from T-Mobile with the same rebooting problem. Furthermore, I tried some other ROMs before reverting back to the HTC 2.53 WWE - all with the rebooting problem on 3G.

HOWEVER, in doing all this, I noticed it rebooted specifically when the weather connected and downloaded an update. This would happen either manually or automatically.

I have now found that turning Weather updates to manual stops the rebooting UNLESS I actually do a manual update and then it will reboot.

Now, for completeness, I have reverted to the T-Mo 6.5 ROM again and proven that the reboot occurs when the weather is updated either automatically or manually.

This is so confusing as I am effectively replacing ALL the software with a new ROM and Radio but this problem now starts to feel like it is software. Does the weather update do something special on 3G? Something that browsing, Google Maps, email, stocks etc doe not do?

Well, at least I now have 3G...... just no Weather............. SOOOO confusing.

Thanks

John
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
That is strange. Weather would use the same connection type, just hits a different server.

Also, a typical weather error would only cause Manila to restart or fail to load, not the phone itself.

Flashing the stock ROM would initiate an MTTY Task 29 command that would wipe your flash drive eliminating the possiblility of reminence of a previous flash.

This has me baffled as well.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
I found a couple of posts from other devices and it appears to be caused by a bad chip...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] MoshPuiu:
In my opinion this could be 'the beginning of the end' of the radio chip. My old Mio A701 did almost the same (not reboot but sometimes freeze) and finally it did not recognized any network and any sim-card; several ROMs tested.

Now it stays in my old car for GPS functions.

But maybe you are more lucky than me...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
I've found similar on the Desire and HD2 forums too and was wondering if it could be related.

I'm still fine on 3G with no Weather refresh but checked this morning before going out, that actually performing a refresh did still cause a reboot.... and it did.

On arriving at my destination, 20 miles away, I tried the same refresh and it was fine.:confused:

At this point, I was starting to think it may be related to location services and my D2 is checking on it's whereabouts (with cell towers, etc) before downloading the local weather.

Interestingly, my home village, where ALL reboots have happened, does have much stronger signal now due to a very recent new cell tower. It was always 3G but now I get all bars all the time and higher bandwidth.

Now just come home, retested and it's fine! Auto Weather updates on 3G, Google Maps, etc...........

I'll keep a watch and let you know what happens next, I'm sure it's only a temporary respite!

Thanks again

John
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] spoks:
Almost same problem with mine diamond2. Only most rarely. Sometimes it reboots once in week, sometimes once a day. I couldn't find any situation manually which causes reboot.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
Since this episode of getting my Diamond2 back to working on 3G with no reboots and everything switched back on for downloading the weather etc, it has not rebooted once in 10 days.

I'm very happy that it seems to be behaving properly.

Anyway, just a quick update from a now happy again D2 user.

Cheers

John

Hello guys,

I want to use Helix launcher instead of Sense but unfortunately (as you all know) the HTC widgets won't work with a different launcher.

So now I'm looking for substitutes for the original HTC widgets.

I already replaced:

HTC Flipclock & Weather ==> Beautiful Widgets

HTC Friendstream ==> Pure Messenger

I still need replacements for:

- HTC Contacts widget (Favorites) in 4x4 size

- HTC News widget (Google RSS-feeds and other RSS-feeds) in 4x4 size, also scrollable if possible

Can somebody help me out with the last 2 widgets? What can I use from market?

Thanx!
[Desire Themes and Apps] ephumuris:
Can't help with the last two but your first replacement isn't exactly what i would do as a first choice. Did you look into "Weather and Toggle" Widget? It's almost like a direct copy of the standard sense flip clock and weather but you can change the colours etc.
[Desire Themes and Apps] The Jones:
I second that. Much preferred Weather and Toggle widget too.
[Desire Themes and Apps] gogol:
Contact Widget ... Yeah, I was searching this all over, but could not find one :(

A good one, I meant.
[Desire Themes and Apps] nachtschicht:
Thanks for the suggestion :) Does it also use 4x2 tiles of space (like the HTC widget) or is it smaller like the Beautiful Widget (4x1)?

I could live with the absence of the Contacts widget, but I really need to find something as a replacement for that handy HTC News widget...
[Desire Themes and Apps] ephumuris:
It's 4x2 only i think. Same as HTC.

Here is a screenshot of it...
