[HD2 General] wish34:
Hmmmm.... well my first smart phone was a HP jornada928 (Anyone here remember this?)

Next phone was XDA Orbit then HTC topaz...

I also still own a Compaq 3970 (in the attic!)

So I guess I'm no beginner when it comes to windows mobile.

Many people are suggesting that I should have researched the phone b4 buying

I did... I had seen a forum that suggested that HD2 would be getting a wm7 upgrade.

I'm don’t really want wm7 as it is but I thought official update, then few nice XDA hacks to improve wm7 (no doubt there will be!)

I actually like wm6.5/sence, and I love my HD2 (no regrets at all)

This is what I’m not happy about:

MS/HTC offering no upgrade to the horrid wm7 (I would like option!)

HTC not offering an alternative OS

Adobe dropping flash ...why can’t they release it as beta for us to play with??

Very slow software development for wm6.5

Some stuff that I used on wm6.5 not working or very difficult to use on HD2

I have this phone on a 24 month contract.

How many new games and apps have we seen since the launch of the HD2?

I new all about wm6.5 before I purchased my HD2

I just didn’t know that wm6/6.5 software development would dry up so much and so fast....

The reason I wanted the HD2 is that I like the idea of one device that can do it all and do it well, for this to happen we need continued app and game development on the wm6.5 platform. For what is a phone with out apps games? Just a media playing phone........
[HD2 General] jonny68:
Well said, some apps are undoubtely good like some you've mentioned but i have to laugh when i hear people droning about how many apps they have on their phone (most of which are gimmicks and it's usually iPhone users too)and then you wonder why people complain when their phone locks up and crashes or worse, is it any wonder when you've put hundreds of apps on it
[HD2 General] vince2773:
I agree it's horrid. But then, why does it bother you not being able to choose it?

Instead, don't you think HTC care so much about us HD2 owners that they want to protect us from the new iphonewannabe piece of s**tware the guys in Redmond have come up with? :D :D :D
[HD2 General] wish34:
Because i beleve that once xda developers get there hands on it thay will enhance/modify/hack it some what...I doubt that microsoft will have it locked down so tight that this wont be posible ... it will be a first for sure!

its not wm7 i really want.... its the core wince 6 behind it..
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
and those very same people will probably put it on your hd2, so i fail to see how a company not giving you an updated os you don't want till it's been hacked, and will probably be available to you once it has, should upset you so much.
[HD2 General] xaccers:
It's easy, backup all your files that are on the phone (not the storage card, that won't be wiped), go to HTC's website, under support pick your phone and follow the instructions.

Remember, it will reset your phone to factory settings, ie wipe your sms, contacts etc and any programs you've installed.

If the latest ROM doesn't resolve your issues, then take it back and get it replaced.
[HD2 General] dio62000:
I don't buy a phone hoping that it might be upgraded to another operating system one day, I buy one because I like it as it is in the first place.

I choose Windows Mobile, because I know this site exists and you can tweak it to make it even better.
[HD2 General] atrako1973:
to be honest my next phone will be htc but it wont be windows for sure ,i fed up with windows wherever you mount them they crash be it on a computer or a mobile , or a washing machine they crash!!!!!
[HD2 General] Marct77:
Absolutely love the HD2,the ability to customise it thanx to the good folks on here doing sterling work,the look,the feel of the phone and the Wow factor

when other people first clock it !

I did my homework and could have got a Desire with the same package

at the same price,but I wanted the HD2 whether it was going to get

WM7 wasn't an issue,I knew it would be obsolete and the next big thing would be around the corner very soon,but isn't that what happens to every bit of tech

you buy these days ?
[HD2 General] atrako1973:
i think htc let hd2 owners down big time for a phone so advanced that dont have a

led email notification is beyond my understanding and the fact that a fix has not

been made is bad very ba for htc even after thousands of complains all over

different forums , but thanks to xda members a led keypad notification is

available now but that doesnt mean htc shouldnt roll out an official LED NOTIFICATION:mad:
[HD2 General] Toss3:
A lot of us that are disappointed have used HTC phones and WM before. So there goes that theory out the window.

The problem is that WM 6.5 isn't outdated, but is quickly becoming so because of the lack of effort put behind trying to get continuous support from devs for the platform.

Opera10 is a great example - it doesn't support multi-touch and I blame HTC for not making sure Opera had any incentive to make it so.

Flash was dropped for the platform because hey why develop anything for an operating system no one is making any noise about?

Skype support was dropped, because of the same reasons and none of the big companies even consider WM when making their apps these days.

This isn't about us not get getting WP7, which I could care less about, but about two companies charging us top dollar for a device lacking any kind of future-proofing.

I cannot fathom why anyone would support companies like these unless of course you own their stock. If these companies continue to get your support they won't make any effort in changing their ways.

WP7 is already a step in the right direction, but HTC needs to see that happy consumers are loyal consumers and thus the most important asset they have.
[HD2 General] wish34:
This is exactly why i stared this thread.

I love the work the XDA comunity does... but i feel it shouldnt have to make up for the MS and HTC shortfalls. People who are diffending these companies dont make any sence to me

If there so happy with there HD2's and MS/HTC what are they doing here??

Exactly!

Andriod dev poll shows that only about 4.87% of users are happy with wm!!

the figures speak for them selves......

It seems that most people buy HTC device knowing that the good people on XDA will sort it out!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] samco08:
Thank you a lot for your answers, but the microphone gain still not working with my bluetooth car kit .

the new Radio rom did not change the sound quality.

Moreover i'm not able to install the CAB of 'microphone AGC" on my HD2 device .

I have got the last energy ROM.

Maybe there is an other version of this cab for LEO ??

I thank you in advance.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] b!rust:
Hey guys,

I just unrooted my myTouch 3G with this method (sappimg.nbh) and because I didn't receive a OTA update I tried to do it myself. So I googled and found what I needed. But unfortunately I recognized that the official download link is down!

So my question is if there is anybody who has the update on his computer and if he could upload the update somewhere. Or is there even an other way to update my android?

regards,

b!rust

//EDIT:

I finally found a guy who uploaded the update on megaupload. =))

[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] jeemeherjee:
what is difference between VGA and QVGA windows mobile software and roms
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] GFX:
The main difference is the display resolution on your device screen.

QVGA = 320 * 240 pixels (Width * Height)

VGA = 640 * 480 pixels (Width * Height)

You have to check your device's screen resolution, and download the correct version for your device. Otherwise you may not be able to see the program's window on your device, or it may get distorted, or the program may not run at all!

To check your device's screen resolution read the specifications in the user manual, or go to: Start -> Settings -> System -> Device Information -> Hardware tab

You'll see your display resolution listed there.

BTW, the display resolution of all OPAL (aka HTC Touch Viva) devices is QVGA (320*240).

Remember that you have to choose and download the correct version of software and ROMs for your device before installing it.

Hope this was useful.

If I setup a new meeting, I can send her an invitation as well, the mail is send through my Exchange connection.

My wife however has only Gmail and Hotmail. When she setup a meeting in her phone and invites me, nothing happens... :confused:

Any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks for the help!!

[HD2 General] tarekkkkk:
i don't know why am i getting this problem ,each time i receive a new sms and if i didn't check it for about 10-15 min my phone display's black screen no matter what i press

is it because i have installed the arabic support or my sms notification sound is custom or i installed weird program that effects my phone

i think its related to the notifications maybe the led notifications is unstable

i dont know guys please help :confused:
[HD2 General] tarekkkkk:
problem solved by disabling led notifications .....
[HD2 General] y0yster:
As I can see there are some other problems related with LED notification.
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
After going through this with my X1 which I took very good care of, I was sure to be extra careful with the X2.

SE blamed HTC for the design flaw that lead to cracks in the X1, well SE... what do you say about the X2 then??? :mad:

After picking up my phone yesterday I felt a sharper more jagged feel near my camera button. I did not pay attention to it at first, but I felt it again and took a closer look. This is what I found!

DO NOT REPOST OR UPLOAD THESE PICTURES ANYWHERE ELSE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!(linking to this thread is ok)

Here you can see the crack goes through to where the metal tab for the battery cover locks.

So the question remains, was I just unlucky? Anybody else notice cracking there in that spot? Looking at it closely I can tell you it's awfully thin and I can't see it holding up for very long.

The only thing I can say that I do differently from the average X2 owner is swap out my batteries every day. I have a standalone charger and 2 spare batteries since my X1 and I prefer to swap fresh batteries every morning instead of using USB to charge so that I don't prematurely wear out (or break) the USB jack, as was a problem with some X1s. Surely this can't cause abnormal case cracking can it??? :confused:
[XPERIA X2 General] amdx2:
****, i jsut looked and i have a crack too.. omg i have taken good care of this phone
[XPERIA X2 General] BRAIN_STEW:
mtechfan your not alone with the swapping of the battery's each day i did this with my C902. i dont have a crack by the cam button but i have just noticed that were the stylis slides in the little clip that helped lock it in place is no longer there
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
Well, we better all check our phones! :eek:

If we look at this from a design view... I think that the plastic bit that has the clip, that holds onto the battery cover is too thin.

I can imagine the other one on the top side failing just the same.
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
the back cover hinges near to that point, wouldnt be surprised if it puts extra stress on that side. i dnt think they designed it in mind with people swapping the battery every day.

had my X2 over 5months and touch wood not a crack or anything on it so far. i dont swap the battery though. my x1 had cracks, keyboard failures, peeling varnish from back cover and all manner of problems by 5months...

i was only inspecting my phone the other day and thinking to myself at how well the X2 has lasted compared to the X1. very pleased with the build quality so far.

i think we will have to recommend to everyone to avoid taking off the back cover more than they have too...
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
Well, that does not solve the problem. It is a ticking time bomb, who says it wont crack anyways? amdx2 does not mention swapping batteries.
[XPERIA X2 General] oubsty:
The back side area only cracked for that person because of careless ness. When you putting on the battery cover on any phone and you dont take time to see what your doing thats what gonna happen. The X2 battery cover has to metal strips at the side to be placed on the grove of the phone< when you dont place it in the grove properly it will push out the side of the phone and may brake just like what you see in those pictures you see there. So we cant blame SE for our negligence;);)
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
Don't be so bloody ignorant, jumping to assumptions like that! Did you even bother to read the text?

That is my phone and I KNOW HOW TO PUT THE DAMN BATTERY COVER ON! I take very good care of every device I have ever owned.

This cracked over time, it has nothing to do with me being careless. Your X2 will crack soon enough, then will you say you were careless?

It's a very thin piece of plastic, take a close look!
[XPERIA X2 General] kepeder:
Ohh...

I just looked aswell, and found that crack too :S

And it is two crack in an early phase too on the other side of the phone...

BAD designing SONY ERICSSON !! :mad:
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
OK, so I want to know if you change your batteries often or do you just charge your phone by USB?

Can you also take pictures of the cracks on your phone for comparison to the one I have?
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
how long have you had your X2?

* edit * to keep this thread constructive i think it would be helpful for people replying to this thread to specify how long theyve owned their X2, whether theyve spotted any cracks (and where) and whether they swap the batterys or remove the back cover on a regular basis.

that way it can be established if theres a particular batch of X2s that are flawed and if theres a main cause or if its just random.
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
Good idea, I got mine around the end of March. Not that long really, the phone looks brand new except for the crack. I use screen protectors as well.
[XPERIA X2 General] anothadave:
thats not long at all then. so about 8 weeks...

ive had a close look at that side, with the cover on it seems strong enough. but with the cover off its not all that strong. looks like the back cover provides quite a lot of the overal phone strength. the cover has metal hinges too so if anything is going to give it will be the plastic on the casing. dont really see why they had to hinge it. theyve had to put two holes there to accomodate the hinge, if they had kept a normal slide in and click back cover they could of made the casing much more solid. i suppose they thought they where being clever by having a cover with a nice locking mechanism.

ive had mine since february and the guy who had it before me must of had it a few weeks. so mine is nearly 5 months old. but ive probably only taken the back cover off about a dozen times at the most.

i also notice that the crack is quite close to the camera button.. i wonder if using the camera a lot contributes to the crack forming. i dont take many pictures so rarely use the button. just done a few tests and if u press hard on the camera button you can see the case flex slightly..
[XPERIA X2 General] amdx2:
well, i don't change battery but i need take out the battery less 4 or 5 times a week to restart the phone cuz it has crushed.. also i have drop the phone a few times already..

since MR2 my phone hasn't really crashed only need a soft reset from time to time.. which i think its normal since its WINMO afterall
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
Yes, I have used the camera quite a bit. That might be it!
[XPERIA X2 General] ekasraz:
Same here, just noticed the crack exactly at the same location :(((
[XPERIA X2 General] lock3k:
Hi every body

I had an X1 too, and same problems that everyone had before, case crack without ANY reason while taking care well, keyboard problems after about 8-9 months and color disappearing of back.

As everyone knows SE said that HTC is responsible for problems of x1.

After all waiting for next work of SE, we have a very close arrival of x2 and x10, so I got an x2 because I BELEIVED that SE presented x2 with all experiences and failures of x1, considering that anyone in the world knew that x10 has a excellent build quality, .... and also some known lacks.

NOW I AM DISAPPOINTED AND MAD AT SE> SHAME ON SE because of having customers like us disappointed.

I had ericsson phones since T26, T28, ......, p800,910,990, x1 and now x2

The least they can do is a simple apology :(
[XPERIA X2 General] mtechfan:
Well I hope every X2 owner reads this thread and checks their device!
[XPERIA X2 General] Lerka:
thanks mtechfan for the post.

I checked my phone...so far no cracks. and I dropped it and took the battery out, god knows how many times already

Ah, gonna keep my fingers crossed
[XPERIA X2 General] ring-bearer:
This might not be highly relevant, but I have a very similar crack in my X1 (same place). It started as a tiny triangular chip along that plastic ridge/bumper. I remove the battery a decent amount due to flashing. I have also had about 2 bad drops.

Wonder if that plastic stuff some people cover their whole phones with would help avoid this.

after it reboots sometimes its stuck on the htc logo, sometimes it manages to get to the htc sense but it reboots afterwards.

it only works again when i leave it off battery to cool down.

is there a way to monitor and log its temp?

I am suffering the same. I have try many things... still suffer either random hang, random reboot, random hang at boot. So far I have try

- Flash other rooms

- basic or custom as Energy

- Flash back stock Rom

- Change SPL to newer

- Flash again custom and stock

- Check battery pins and ensure they are not bent

- Flash newer radio

- Flash again basic, custom and stock roms

Now I am trying to leave the phone for few hours without Battery, Simcard, memory chip...

Nothing working for me. Still random hangm, reboot or boot problems.

[General Questions and Answers] Dadrooooo:
I have this problem as well. Exactly the same with the random restarts, and restarting after restarting, especially when trying to view Youtube videos.

So it IS a hardware issue and HTC has fixed it on newer phones? So everyone with the old phone is just screwed?

Mine is even a Telstra version from Australia and its been having these problems since I got it used. I guess I got screwed buying it used.
