really? downloads fine for me... you are prob clicking wrong link.

it says

Save file to your PC: click here

on the spot where you should click... NOT Download 2shared toolbar
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejqr5:
Thanks!!! That worked!!! I was clicking on the wrong link like a dufus.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
yea those bastards are tricky like that... lemme know how well it goes for you... im lovin it!
[EVO 4G Android Development] trapharder4844:
does 4g work
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuglessPete:
Yes of course :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] trapharder4844:
ok thanks will try
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejqr5:
Just flashed. I love the new Live Wallpaper!
[EVO 4G Android Development] -viperboy-:
Well I have been running this ROM since it came out and am now on v0.3 but the Market is still slow as hell for me. I know someone said it was caching things but it still takes forever to seach, tap on install, tap ok, and than wait for it to start downloading.

Is there anything I can do to fix that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] air2k57:
Having issues with 3G. Barely works, constnatly times out. Upon testing, latency is usually 999, sometimes in the 500's. Other roms usually give me 200 some latency.

Also, awesome mod to remove bloat, however, could you add an option to keep FB w/sync?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuglessPete:
3g issues are not the fault of any rom, rather is caused by the baseband/radio (a part of your phone that no rom touches) you can find the new baseband here on the forums or also I added it to rom manager.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuglessPete:
I don't have an evo in front of me right now but you should do something like this:

Menu > settings > applications > manage applications > menu > filter > all > vending > clear data and cache
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuglessPete:
Thanks! I will be making some more changes to it soon :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuglessPete:
That is because you so not have the new quick boot installed (included in this rom). You will have to manually reboot into recovery, install the rom, and then from there on out it will work correctly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] illmaticone:
When using the bloat ware removal tool it breaks the htc sync for social integration. I get fc when I go to settings> accounts and sync
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuglessPete:
With the removal tool version 0.3?

Can you tell me which apps can not be removed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] timgt:
Usually you cannot remove stocks or news or it breaks things. Im not sure what your tool removes because I use your ROM but not your removal tool
[EVO 4G Android Development] MikeBrWade:
First of all WONDERFUL ROM, the best I have flashed so far for speed and overall stability. I have used the bloat remover (though I tailored it to not blow away sprint TV just in case I want to use it) and everything works great.

I have a question though, what is the baseband update for? I have yet to install it and I read through all these posts and I can't seem to find some describing what it does exactly does it decrease the noise to the DSP to increase the signal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dm5363b:
Do I need to wipe the cache?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dm5363b:
Do I need use the adb to use erecovery to put me in the recovery and then install the file from the sdcard? Should I wipe the cache first?

Kris , thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] timgt:
Just flash like any other rom, you can use rom manager that is the easiest, if not then use

adb reboot recovery

then after that command run the recovery-windows.bat file. After that I always clear the cache and dalvic cache before I flash the new ROMs
[EVO 4G Android Development] dm5363b:
Ok, just performed adb reboot recovery, then ran the window's bat file , cleared the cache and delvic cache prior to flashing the new rom, flashed the rom, not it just keeps rebooting over and over, any ideas, do i need to reflash the rom a second time?
[EVO 4G Android Development] timgt:
I forget what the first 3 options are but I always do all 3, one is to wipe data, one is to wipe cache, one is to wipe delvic. Make sure you do all 3. Try again and let us know
[EVO 4G Android Development] infamousjax:
Here's a little tip guys:

You can remove stocks, news, twitter, facebook and all that HTC stuff. Just make sure before you remove it, you STOP syncing with it in Settings->Accounts & sync.

Then you should be able to remove it with no problems.

Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dm5363b:
I believe Borat said it best "great success"

Thanks

I have been trying to figure this out all day and all of last night. It's communities like this that will allow us to surpass the Great "I" device
[HD2 General] Theguru1:
Well i have had the hd2 for 6 months which before that i had an iphone 3gs. I'm sorry, even though you can pretty do anything you like with the hd2 windows mobile and techinically it is a superior phone and not restricted to the apples way of life, the iphone is a smoother phone, ok, the screen is smaller but the keyboard is brilliant, you would of thought a bigger screen on the HD2 the keyboard would be better!! and now iphone has 225,000 apps vs a few thousand on WM.

I have used my hd2 withcooked roms, messed around with radios, emulators..etc..but again the iphone seems to have the edge...

Thank xda developers for all you have given...i bid fair well. You never know one day i may be back if Windows 7 is decent no doubt you will be casting your eyes over that and customising it to the extreme if Microsoft will allow it that is!
[HD2 General] ephestione:
first to reply in a flame thread! teehee :p
[HD2 General] Theguru1:
well i'm just saying tanks to chiefs etc for all they have given..and saying goodbye..and the reasoning behind it..
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Not to be rude, but I don't think you have posted enough for anyone to actually miss you. This just smacks of another iPhone Vs. HTC flame thread.
[HD2 General] troed:
Hihi ! Enjoy Your crap ;) ............. another poster less, 0,1% easier now to follow up all threads per day :D:D:D .......... Tx for leaving
[HD2 General] liamhere:
yes that was rude....
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Flamebaiting much?

Narcissistic much?

You think too highly of yourself to even consider the notion that any of us gives a flying hoot whether you're here or not. If you like things that work out of the box, go ahead and get Apple, they are certainly good for devices like that.

But do not make ****ty-threads trying to sound sincere and genuine when all you're doing is trying to start another "I'm sorry folks, Apple is just better than WM regardless of what you tell me" thread before you leave.
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
oh well, never mind....bye.
[HD2 General] Theguru1:
lol... if HTC can't get things right with the HD2 what are we supposed to do pray that one day they will? yeah right ?? with the hd3 coming along do you think they give a toss? not likely...552 pages all with mostly issues on the xda hd2 section really gives a thumbs up to the phone doesn't it?? come on guys...jesus...it say much does it? like alot of people in here it looks like a beutiful phone, the features are outstanding but the faults overcloud the phone...and thats why we have to move on...

flame this flame that...who cares..
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Thank you for proving my point, troll.

Now feel free to leave and never come back. I'm pretty certain at this point, people would prefer that you did not come back as well because you're wasting up XDA's bandwidth and HDD space with your posts.
[HD2 General] sniper-wolf:
Can I have your phone?

Shut the door on your way out won't you? :D:p
[HD2 General] AllanJH:
Obvious troll is obvious, or just stupid.

+1. Don't let the door hit you in your fat a** on your way out, Theguru1. :rolleyes:

InB4 lock.
[HD2 General] Theguru1:
lol again...you all proving my point...
[HD2 General] rumz82:
Why on earth do some of you lot need to be rude? :mad:

He has his reasons. Whether it was to troll or not, dont be so rude! It really isnt a good impression of yourselves and also makes XDA look bad.:mad:

To OP.

Dont worry mate, it was nice that you thought you would give WinMo a try. But u wernt that impressed. WinMo isnt for all, some will love it some wont. It does take time to get used to it.Its good to know that u appriciated the hard work from devs and cookes........ Good luck with Apple and who knows, maybe one day you might make another move back to WinMo. :D

Flame away guys..........:D

(@ me that is)
[HD2 General] AllanJH:
Sorry, just couldn't resist. :p

All phones have their flaws, even your precious iPhone. Different phones are better for different people. For the "power user" the HD2 is a very excellent phone, even with its flaws. Personally, I've tried the iPhone OS, and I can't stand the limitations. It's a personal thing, so don't force your personal opinions down our throats and expect us to pat you on the back for it.
[HD2 General] rumz82:
Hmmm.....seems like the "sheep factor" still exists!:D
[HD2 General] malias4:
Νο reason to blame u bs u sell ur hd2 n buy an iphone4, life change so why we stay stable:p

Do what u want, if u c whats going on on the planet at the moment(wars, unemployment, economical crisis etc) phones are just so litle... to make us worry..

have fun whatever u do..

just dont understand why every day one new thread pops up , like new iphone hd2 killer or whatever..

have fun though !
[HD2 General] AllanJH:
I form my own opinions based on personal experience and research. :)
[HD2 General] rumz82:
@ Tygrtail.........ok.........:D
[HD2 General] chuck232:
I have an HD2 incoming, but the OP's got a point, whether it needs to be posted every time a user decides to 'leave' the HD2, or not. Say what you will about the iPhone and its somewhat limited feature-set compared to a heavily-customized WM device, the features that are there work and the work well. I cringe at the thought of fighting with the HD2 each day, but it's something I'm willing to put up with. But you cannot deny the large number of issues the device faces, issues that shouldn't exist in a high-end smartphone:

SMS lag

Audio lag

Freezing, rebooting

Touchscreen inaccuracies, high sensitivity, jitter

No 720p support

Lock-screen glitch (can't slide to unlock)

Tiny MMS issue

The list goes on. The issues are a combo of WinMo and HTC. Blame it on whomever you wish, but the end result is a less than stellar experience for many.

Yeah, you can interpret the OP's post as something akin to flamebait, but what I see are people with some serious defensiveness for their phones. Perhaps I'll join you when I get my HD2, but for now, I think I'm a fairly impartial outsider.
[HD2 General] KowboyBebop:
Oh great. What a community we have there going. He just said bye bye with a reason of why he is leaving. Ofc most of us dont care, but he was just being polite. Just politely say him "Enjoy your new phone and cya". He never argumented that iphone was better phone or that Apple is superior or anything. He just choosed his preference. Shame on you apple haters.

So Guru enjoy your new phone and if you ever return to WP7 say hi to us =)
[HD2 General] tictac0566:
Congrats to you for your new phone.

I will check again the 5th generation. And then the 6th, the 7th, the 8th... whatever. It will stay a closed system which needs a "jailbreak" to be free of censorship and so on. And highly overpriced. Thank god there are other products such as the HD2.

Video editing on a smartphone screen? Wow, I am really stunned... "This changes everything, again?" Come on. All that changes is the stockpile of dollars on Mr. Jobs back account.
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I can totally understand why somebody would be tempted to switch to an iphone4 over their HD2.

The simple fact of the matter is that not everybody has the time to sit and tinker with a phone like this....... Some people just want their phone to work.

I had no experience at all of WM before I got my HD2 and had no idea what I was letting myself in for. I just jumped on the bandwagon because it had a big screen and flashy weather animations. I'll even admit that I "settled" for the HD2 because Tmobile wouldnt give me an iphone :eek:

It was only when I started really looking into the differences between the two platforms that I found out about the limitations on the apple devices and how much better (for me) that the HD2 (and WM) is than an iphone.

Flame on......... :p
[HD2 General] lquigley:
Hope you are happy with whatever you choose.

I'm an admin.on another forum.& I think 90% of you who replied are pathetic!! Why, would someone stay with device they are unhappy with.? We can't all like the same technology, what a boring world!! So why be rude, or even reply? If they don't like what we like, are they are wrong? Or just have other opinions!! Good luck op, hope you are happy with whatever you get,,,,Quig
[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
Good luck with your new phone. It's always nice to get a new 'toy' to play with.

Just be careful with the screen. They do break easier than the old iPhone's I've been told.
[HD2 General] tantrum829:
People are always leaving winmo for other platforms but I have noticed that the majority (including myself) end up comming back.

Although I might have the lowest post count in this thread I have been a lurker on this site for years and was quite active on ppcgeeks for a while. I left winmo for the iphone and after using it for about a year I hated it. I was so frustrated and regreted the decision. It wasnt until a few months ago that I came back to winmo when I bought the HD2 and I felt like I was back were I needed to be. My phone is a large part of my day either for work or personal entertaiment my HD2 gives me everything I need and more.

I will admit I am an apple hater. I tried both worlds and my experience with apple was beyond dissapointment due to its hardware, restrictions and limitations. Even with Jailbreaking the Iphone is still limited and in my opinion its just shiny toy that is well marketed and attracts people who are not familiar with all things possible with winmo. Maybe some day all those die hard apple fans will comeout of their trans and actually do real comparisons and not just follow the advertisements and sometimes bias media that is constantly in favor of Apple. Its shamefull that people are still buying products from a coorporation that does everything possible to limit freedom of access and development to third parties. While throughout the years they have let loose a little they are still a fascist coorperation that wants the industry to do things their way. I hope one day in the near future I will have the pleasure of watching Apple fall and crumble.

Not trying to offend anyone. Just my thoughts.
[HD2 General] rumz82:
Couldnt agree more!:D
[HD2 General] rmsa786:
it's really peeing me off, spent good money on the hd2 but i am not so pleased with it. even with the snapdragon chip it lags at time and that with about 5 apps installed...:(
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
I bet what is causing the lags are the background updates. Twitter auto downloading in background really slows device. try setting most download services to manual or more hours apart.
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Install LeoCPUSpeed and force it to 998mhz all the time. You'll notice a difference. The annoying throttling from 768mhz to 998mhz causes jerkiness (or as I call it, uneven smoothness) in my opinion.
[HD2 General] smeddy:
I'm really disappointed with a lot of the XDA posters in this thread. Maybe he's a troll, maybe we've seen this type of thread 30 times a day for years, maybe we're sick of clutter on this forum, but maybe he's just someone who is sharing his experience, and most of you are just here to insult him:eek:

I LOVE my HD2, I'm always talking down iPhones. But as devices that just work flawlessly, and can do almost anything with their apps, it's not a bad choice of phone (I hate myself for saying it and I could quite easily write 10 paragraphs on why I will never buy one).

But the HD2, almost purely due to WM, has many many flaws, and even after nearly two years (including Blackstone) of RoM flashing, tweaking, Radio flashing, interface changing, this phone and so many of it's apps always feels like work in progress.

Anyway, it's pointless me writing loads here because this thread will be replaced by another within 30 seconds, but jeez posters, either enter a dialogue or - if you think he's trolling - just rise above it. Don't be rude or you bring us all down to the type of behaviour you're supposedly arguing against.
[HD2 General] juiceppc:
I too have an HD2 and am thinking about getting the iPhone 4. Mainly for the better camera(HD recording and iMovie) and also the app store.

It's also a bit more stable(when not jailbreaking).

Just my 2cents.
[HD2 General] AllanJH:
I'm sorry to all of you whom I upset. I didn't mean to come across as a jerk.

I just think it's immature to post in a forum section ABOUT the HD2 saying they don't like it, and they're getting a competing device. Not saying I'm mature, BTW. :p

Enjoy your closed platform device, OP. Better you than me. :)
[HD2 General] argentocruz:
I'm not a fan of 'camp-jumpers'... You choose one camp and stick with it...

You have your iphone people and you have your winmobile people... Just like;

Ali - Tyson

Windows - Apple - Linux

Ford - GM

Bocca Juniors - River Plate

My dad always warned me;

Steer clear of people with hyphenated names, beards and iphone users!
[HD2 General] eenbox:
Don't be a stranger - report back with how you like new iPhone vs HD2 since it is very revolutionary phone these days how Steve Jobs announced it - it will have Multi-tasking ... (WOWWWW)... :)(

Just to add - I might consider iPhone once it has following:

- independent apps allowed to be installed without App Store;

- removable battery;

- completely unlocked GSM version;

- at least 3.7 screen

- ability to dual-boot android;

- ... that's it :)
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Different users have different needs right?

For a group of ppl the iphone is just fine, they want to make calls, send text, have some nice games, browse the web and watch a movie... If it works it's fine, they don't desire customization or tweaking. You have these users on normal computers as well. People who want to do and try everything with their pc or ppl who just leave everything to default and are fine with that.

But I really don't understand all the complaining on the HD2, the early roms had some issues yeah (mainly the sms issue) but nowadays I never have issues anymore. No reboots, no lagging (of sms or audio), screen works fine, etc. Doesn't sound fair to mention 'all the issues, pages and pages of complaints', etc when the device works perfect for many more ppl as well.

Nothing is perfect, it's just a matter of seeing things in perspective and not see everything black and white.

Ah well, hope you enjoy your iphone op... I think I'm going to try an android next (samsung galaxy-s) and not because winmo is so bad. Just to try something different and others os's can be good as well.
[HD2 General] dazza9075:
im fairly shocked at the attitude to this chap from some people, the irony is the only people who kicked up any negative comments where in fact yourselves, everyone else has kept the topic quite light hearted and relevant.

so please think before you post

as to the post, well its your choice at the end of the day, HD2 has had its shortcomings when it really shouldn’t have, i suspect the iPhone4 will have its own issues, the question is which issues can you live with the most.

Id suggest you popping back an letting us know but to be honest its probably not a good idea as it seems some people are too narrow minded to have a civilised conversation

good luck
[HD2 General] smeddy:
That's okay - I'll still never get bored of the FacePalm double-hit of pictures, any excuse to see them! :D
[HD2 General] pedaah:
I've actually looked at this iPhone seriously, my HD2 is Humming, but iPhone 4 looks worth a try!!! Not, Android would be better, It's nice to think marketing, not performance is why people buy devices. Either way, the HD2 is not going far no matter what I try :)
[HD2 General] hewlett777:
abahaha what a phenomenal post!

flaming of the highest order. haha. enjoy your iphoney
[HD2 General] stoolzo:
Just get both phones and have done with it :)
[HD2 General] pigglett:
Iam getting the wife a new iphone as I need a idiot proof smart phone <-- I use that term in the widest sense :p

I cant be doing with the tech support I would have to give her with winmo / android :p:p
[HD2 General] KaH_ACT:
Sorry, but if you want a good camera buy a camera not a mobile phone. I use the phone for quick snaps not a camera!

I like to be able to use apps that do not work on other platforms and the hd2 is my first useable smartphone. Previous was a work blackberry, locked out o most functionality. I am currently happy with my setup. I do find that the custom roms seem to be updated too often.
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
by by my friend i will never miss you ,iphone lover :p
[HD2 General] enyaj:
I don't get it. I understand there are a few here who question why the flaming on people who start posts like these. But I understand more the people who flame becuase there is really no sense on creating threads like "bye HD2, hello iphone" or alike. You know what youre gonna get if you create posts like these on an HD2 site. Yet some still do it. Its like you are just excited to see the reaction. If you don't like your current phone, fine. Sell it! Buy a new, different phone that you like more and tell your friends at work, family at home or anywhere about it. Just don't post it on a site that you know is not going to like what your going to say. It just doesn't make sense.
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
1020% agreed.no need.
[HD2 General] aiwama:
Totally agree!
[HD2 General] rumz82:
I love it!:D:D
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
i normally wouldn't bash anyone for their opinion. but TWO things aren't right about this thread:

1. there is already a discussion in this sub-forum about HD2 vs iphone4...this thread should not have been a new thread. the op could just mention his opinion and reasons in that thread.

2. you don't see me posting everytime i burp or fart or come up with an epiphany. it is desired that posts/threads should be useful, informative, and/or helpful. whats next? a thread titled "i just farted and i'm never eating beans again"??!?? because without the "thanks to xda" part of the opening post, the rest of the post is exactly that! :D
[HD2 General] Raven78uk:
I did it !!! i did it !!!

..possibly fart and burp same time, next time :D:D:D

Will let you know pppl :D
[HD2 General] rmsa786:
thanks guys for the tweaks and info. will give it a try but i think that all these things should really have been set from the factory..
