Well, I just got a replacement HD2 and it does NOT have this reboot issue.

Interestingly the replacement has a s/n within 200 counts from the s/n I posted - so the replacement was probably from the same "batch", but doesn't have the problem.

So, it looks to be a not-that-common, but soemtimes happens issue.

I have read that some of the (mainboard) issues have something to do with bad soldered parts/tin connections on the mainboard :( maybe it's is the same problem like with the Nvidia Geforce 8xxx series xD, just put it 3 minutes in the oven and it works like it's new :p, read alot about this specific isssue (luckly i have an Ati Radeon HD 5870 ;P)

Mine has the same issue. Tried multiple radios and tweaks to tcpip settings and it was a no go. Since everyone here and from what I've read designates this as a problem with 3G streaming of video I thought that some combination of radio and tweaks would get it to work but alas it was no luck. I'm in US California and currently started talking to HTC and HTC Australia to get my T9313 fixed hopefully they'll have me send it to a North America Repair Center. They should be able to source the parts from where they need it. Thanks d33f for further confirmation of this issue. Seems like it affects a small number of folks.
[HD2 General] cw-data:
Great, got the same problem for few weeks now... Interestingly under Android the phone keeps running much longer than under WinMo and only reboots there when much hotter.

Will call HTC next week for repair and afterwards sell it and go for a Desire instead.
[HD2 General] yellowg:
It's been difficult trying to get HTC to accept the phone since they want me to go through Telstra. Pretty difficult since I got the phone through a friend that was in Australia and now is not. I've just been staying away from streaming over 3G.

Android does run much longer and I think it's due to the fact that their radio driver is different and devs even note that it is incomplete and not running at full speed which would be why it runs longer before freezing or rebooting.

One thing to note though is that there's no 250ms audio delay when running in Android. Hopefully I'll be able to talk to a nice HTC rep that will let me send it directly to HTC for repair. If anyone knows of the HTC repair centre address in Australia please reply. Thanks.

Hello

At first I didn't have any problems with my Google syncing but a few days ago, my Desire started to show:

"The process com.google.process.gapps has stoped unexpectedly. Please try again."

Every time it did a sync. When I checked which sync does this, I found out that every time it tries to sync GMail, it shows the error.

Sometimes I do get a GMail notification but thats quite rare and even when I don't get one the new mails are still there when I open the app.

Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this?

I tried rebooting, stopping the process manually -> didn't work. I didn't try resetting the phone.

I don't use a Task Killer and my Desire is not rooted.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skymera:
Hi

I've had my Hero for aboutttt 7 weeks now and i've been tinkering mainly with 1.5 ROMs.

I've settled with MoDaCo 3.2 which is blazingly fast and has some decent features.

Recently i've tried some 2.1 roms, Villain 5.4, BeHero+ and some others. I tried Villain 5.5 yesterday and kept it until today.

I really liked it, the stock look, the incredible amount of features and general improvements to the interface from 1.5.

Now. Every 2.1 ROM i've used has had something in common. They're all incredibly slow. I mean, once the app is running it's generally ok but switching between apps can be incredibly slow.

Closing an app and sliding between the home screens is extremely sluggish and opening messages can take up to 10 secs.

Keyboard input is about as flat as the expression on my face. And once the keys are recognised the phone vibrates as much as a sex toy...

Don't get me wrong, Villain5.5 is probably the best 2.1 ROM out there, it just doesn't seem to perform well.

So what makes 2.1 so slow?

Is it because it's a stock kernel? I see MoDaCo has "Teknologist"?

Is the Hero just too lame?

This has probably been answered more times than you're willing to count. I'm just frustrated to the point at which i stuck my phone in my mouth and proceeded to nibble on the corner.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackhab:
Try SenseHero 2.2 - it's fast. Really fast, I think even faster than MoDaCo 3.2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
2.1 isn't any slower than 1.5!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unrealmusik:
I really, really disagree there

When we are talking about responsiveness anyway.

Responsiveness of any 2.1 ROMs are far beyond what I would like, VillainRom is the fastest I've used but still not what I'd like for my main phone. Esp vs ROMs like the Kimera 1.8... which is the fastest 1.5 ROM I've ever used (and now sticking to)

TBH I'm not surprised, with no official GSM Hero release, there's no fine-tuned drivers for it etc. Ports can get it running on a GSM Hero but in no way are those builds really built to be used on the phone, they're just modified by XDA Devs. I think thats what makes the wait for the 2.1 from HTC even greater because that should hopefully be the 2.1 we could all finally move to.

(...once XDA roots and tweaks it of course :D )
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -2y2k-:
to check how fast it is, linpack is better or the benchmark - softweg one?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skymera:
Running SenseHero2.2 now and have done for a couple days.

Feels very responsive and works very well :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
SlideVillain 1.1.0 is actually really pretty fast, and I currently use that as my everyday ROM. I used to be a devout taskiller user, but I have now uninstalled Taskiller as you just don't need one on SlideVillain.

Also, the new SuperHero ROM from Villain is unbelievably fast. It is a semi-vanilla ROM, although only available to donators for the moment in a closed Beta (there are still little bugs needing ironed out).

Not all 2.1 ROMs are slow though. The SuperHero ROM is actually as fast as the Desire in use. See http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=507 for some info about it.

Hi! This has probably been asked and answered, but I couldn't figure out what to search for.

What I am trying to do is automatically configure all of my quicklinks. I use CoOkie's Home Tabs with 3 screens of 4x4 quick links and I have all 48 of the quick links used. I have screen shots so after I install all my cabs I just go and set all of them up according to the picture, but I want it to be all done by itself.

Is there an application that can do that for me?

Thanks
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
i do it by getting the tabs all set up, then use ceregistryeditor to browse to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\Home

in there is a folder for each quicklin space, numbered 0 - 70 something.

extract that whole key, and make a cab out of it. then, when you hard reset, once all your apps and such have installd run your links cab, and voila, quicklinks are back.

Hey

My phone was working perfectly fine until about 1pm today when I lost all reception. I was using my O2 sim while the number was ported over to Vodafone.

I assumed the number had been ported so popped in the Vodafone SIM only to find I had no reception on it either.

I tried to connect manually and got the message "Your SIM does not allow a connection to this network".

It's the same when trying to connect to O2 on the O2 SIM.

Any idea what's wrong? A few people seem to have encountered this issue.
[Desire General] lankydan84:
i work for cpw

Hi pal,

i work for cpw in the uk.

during a number port from o2 to vodafone, there is a downtime while you will be without service on the number port day.

number ports are completed from 9am till 6pm usually on vodafone.

as vodafone no longer support the allocation of temporary numbers, while you are waiting for you number to port over. this is the reason you are without service.

put your vodafone sim into your desire.. and switch the phone on and off every 30mins or so you should gain service soon.

hope this helps

Hi Guys,

Just got my new HD2 and wow, what a phone. I just retired a 3GS after about 12 month and wanted back to WM which I really missed. That said, the iPhone gave me some bad habbits that I need to break.

First thing I did was flash the HSPL ready for flashing some new roms but before I do that, I wanted to get used the WM again. My last was 6.5 on a kaiser so this is similar but different.

Anyway, couple of things. First is the Facebook app. On my iphone, when someone had posted XYX Name Likes the Group "WM 4 Me", the "WM 4 Me" portion was linked. I dont see that in the WM app. Am I missing something or is it that you cant just jump to that group? Any tips here.

Next thing is if anyone can recomend a good program to remote erase all data if I loose it or if there is anything out there to enrypt my sd card to make it useless without a password?

Last, is there a way to get the HD2 into landscape mode? I assumed it would be automatic but... Thats what I get for assuming.

Thanks in advance guys.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
remotetracker - brilliant, loads of options.

stock rom isnt landscapeable, some cooked roms are, but its never been released like that, it was a test rom that leaked with the landscaped tabs and the chefs cooked them in.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I'm running the stock ROM and it's correct there's no native landscape rotation built in, but I've been using the cab attached below, and it works great for putting sense and even WM apps (like file explorer!) into landscape when you physically rotate the phone. Just put the cab on your SD card, run it (install to phone), then soft-reset.
[HD2 General] mobi:
Hey thanks guys. Just installed the cab and bingo. Dont know why they didnt send it from the factory that way?

Sam, going to se if I can get hold of that remotetracker and give it a shot.

So far, happy with the stock rom so I might just tweak it a little bit. Would still like to figure this Facebook app out. Is it an actual app or a mobile webpage I'm looking at? Also need to find a new gps since my old favorite site (gpsunderground)seems to have shut down.

Thanks again.

After 20 years, I finally will be visiting my place of birth again, Hongkong.

I am planning a two day trip somewhere in july, and I'd like to buy some stuff for the HD2, but I'm not familiar in HK.

I did some googling about places to shop for electronics, and came accros something like 'golden computer arcade' and 'sham shui po'. And Shenzen, is that still hongkong or is it mainland china and do i need other visa for it?

There are a few things I'd like to look out for, and if someone who lives in HK can point me out where the buy such stuff, I'd be happy.

1

32Gb microSD. These baby's are available already, but too expensive right now. Do they sell these baby's in HK? And what is their average price? It doesn't needs to be Sandisk per se, any other brand will do. Also, class doesn't matter either, it's just about the storage. And a little bit of quality of course.

2

A decent headset with in ear phones, with music control and maybe some other functions like volume rocker etc. Can be wired or BT. I listen to music occasionaly so I don't need the high end stuff.

3

Does something exists like a bluetooth memorystick/device? for example, some 16gb flash drive, running on a penlite (or two) and have bluetooth that supports for file transfers? Imagine a small size bt memorystick that you can easily cary in your pockets.

4

I'd like to buy a tablet device, but don't want an iPad (too expensive, too locked down, and too Apple) But a KIRF running android or so. Something like this:

http://www.clonedinchina.com/2010/0...clone-packs-1ghz-arm-cortex-a8-processor.html

or this:

www.clonedinchina.com/2010/04/epad-looks-like-a-bigger-iphone-priced-at-394.html

There are a lot of KIRFS and i don't care how they look like. Just need a decent tablet with updated OS and some horsepower on the cheap.

Usage at home, need web browsing, media player, some basic games and voip support.

Any suggestions from someone who lives in HK?

5

Spare parts for HD2, like lcd screen, digitizer, housing etc. Just in case that the best wm6.5 ever made suddenly dies on me.

I bought some adina batteries from ebay, shipped from hongkong, 3 euro's a piece and it still works fine for me.

I know that there are a lot of stuff out there that I actually have to check out myself, but since I will be just two days in HK, I think í'll be too short on time to find shops that offer pretty reliable items. I know that almost everything is a counterfeit, but I don't care about it to much, as long as it works.

I will be editing this post more often the following days, because I want to buy my HD2 some little presents :o.

Anyone who has a suggestion, please let me know.

Thanks guys.

i am not sure what it is called, but where the markets are in kowloon, the streets running parallel to that should have what you want. one street is electronics, the next is sporting goods and so on. i have never seen so many phone stores in my life. there are also electronic stores spread all over the place in kowloon ranging from the market type shops (ps3 games etc)to large retail types that have everything (kind of like harvey norman) sorry i cant help with names as it has been a few years since i was there, but it is electronics heaven over there. would love to go back also.

I might be able to bring something back, depending the item ofcourse. I don't know if i'll be able to contact you when I'm in HK, it's just a two day trip and data roaming may be mighty expensive.

If you come back with some ideas where to buy stuff and how much it cost it would be nice. I have friends, that travel to HK very often.

Hi. i go to HK at least once a year (my wife is from HK) and i advise you not to go to the shops in TST/kowloon as they will rip you off!!!!!.....go to mong kok there is a great shopping centre there that is just for mobile phones its great! and is very big (three floors i think)...i can get an exact address for you from the wifes brother as he still lives in HK. i also know the "golden computer arcade" but its small compared to the one im talking about and sham shui po is more for computer components etc. the mobile phone centre i mentioned sells all sorts of spares and accessories for phones but i was there about 5 months ago and because the hd2 was only just released the was no spare parts available but im sure by now there will be many!!!!! as you asked shenzen is in mainland china (the town on the HK - China border) you will need a visa if youve got a european or us passport...i think i paid 800hk$..But that was for a multi entry 3 month visa so you could probably get a cheaper single entry visa.....

I hope this answers your questions.....if you want the address for the phone shopping centre...just reply to me and i will get it fot you!

Edit......heres the link to show the address for the phone centre

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&s...d=Mhip2z782d-U-bri4aBTwQ&cbp=12,48.31,,0,6.54

Thanx for the info. I do believe mongkok is a better place to bargain about the price. But i also think that Shenzen is even better considering price ranges, that's what i've read on the web.

The above article says that you can pay with HK Dollars in Shenzhen. Does this still aply, because another article says it's not. And none of those articles mentions when they were there.

[HD2 Accessories] byronlee:
Don't go to Shenzhen. Shenzhen is in mainland China and not in HK although it's not very far and there they sell mostly China-made copied/look-alike phones/gadgets not the real deal unless u think those fakes are fun.

Mongkok is a good place to go and you can also find good stuff & accessories in the Wanchai Computer Mall on the HK Island side (on Henessary Road right next to the Wanchai MTR station and the Southorn sportsground).
[HD2 Accessories] thaivid:
this post is very useful, , go to the commercial podium, take the mtr to mong kok , then exit d1 , walk straight forward ,then about 150 meters on your left you will find the commercial podium , the hd2 price is now starting from 4200-5200, i saw most of the time in different shop 4600( should be the uk version) 4200 for chinese version . shenzen you will find most copy there .

Momax battery for HD2. I have 2 of them and they work well.

I like to look and feel what copies and other counterfeits are all about.

Since i need a simple MID, running android, to read books, browse internet and watch movies, i thought, it does not matter much what brand it is.

What I like to know is, is it true that SEG has more stuff that the shops around mongkok?

Lastly, the most stupid question of the world:

Can i buy buy parts to assemble my own tablet? Or even assemble my own HD3 with 5" capacitive display and running Tegra 2? Just out of curiousity :p

Do they sell for example complete SBC with a variety kind of chips, hook up an LCD of your choice and let them flash any OS onto it?

Still, I want to go to shenzhen. Can somebody tell me if I can pay with HKD in Shenzhen?
[HD2 Accessories] hyellow:
How unfortunate.

In my op is wrote that I would get some spare parts for the HD2, if it would die on me one day. Well, it just happened to be today.

My daughter dropped it and the screen is broken.

The upper left part of the screen is pitch black, while the rest remains visible and functional. Even multi touch still works.

So I've dissasmbled the whole thing and even placed the HD2 in a preheated oven of 50 degrees, let it there for 10 minutes (as a punishement) and could easily remove the digitizer from it. But is seems the LCD has cracked too, so I'm off to buy a complete new lcd with digitizer. Anyone in HK that can tell me where to get these in HK? Ofcourse, it needs to fit, unlike some other parts I once bought for the n95, it didn't fit at all. Ofcourse, I will bring my HD2 with me, maybe they can fix it for me there on the cheap. I've already disassembled the whole freak.

I'm not going to buy a replacement HD2 since the HD3 will be out within 6 months or so.

So, HK guys, if you have some time, check it out for me, okay?

If you happen to pass by a shop, check it out for me, will ya?

Thanx in advance.
