[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forelli:
Hey fellows members, I actually regret I bought the DHD that's why I sold it. I got a Galaxy S for the time being, waiting for the dual-core phones, like the Galaxy S dual-core with a whooping 4.5" screen! I was disappointed by HTC for making a device which didn't live up its expectations: as many of us, I was expecting the android version of the HD2, which it was not. I couldn't bear the build flaws anymore (battery cover, sd-card cover) nor the lack of interest in the development community compare to the HTC Vision/G2 or the Desire. I don't know if I will buy an HTC device again if they go on with the same policy, they should care and listen to us, the customers, because we give them our money, without us, they're nothing.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
to be honest coming from an amoled desire, the screen on the dhd is a bit disapointing .......but apart from that, (and the crappy battery cover lol), the dhd is an awsome device :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
your too inpatient, when i first got my desire, the development scene was dead, rooting took about 2 days research and there was about 2 roms, it was the same before that with my htc hero, that had been out 6 or 7 months before there was even one custom rom for it...... now both the hero and the desire have massive dev scenes. so will the dhd in its own time :rolleyes:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaymondErasmus:
I absolutely love my DHD. Sure its not perfect ... not any phone mentioned on the entire XDA is perfect!!

At the end of the day i believe that people expect way too much from smartphones today ... the technology that these phones (in particular the DHD, in my opinion) is running is amazing. Its a phone, and when i pick mine up it makes me smile :D

I can garuntee you know that when the new dual cores, better res screens etc come out we will still find something to complain about, thats what makes us human and what drives development at the pace that it is moving at today.

If the perfect phone was to be made meeting everyones expectations there would be no reason to develope any new phones ... leaving nothing to look forward to :confused:

Sounds boring to me!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
Bizarre, Battery cover is fine if bloody fiddly to get on and off but in my time with the phone (getting on for three months) I have only removed it twice so no biggy, Sim/SD cover took a while to get it nicely settled but again I have only removed it once so no real issue. Lack of interest from development community? how often do you want to flash a new ROM? is two / three times a day for the updates to Cm7 and android revolution etc (Just double checked 7 DHD Roms in active development on XDA forums at the moment how many do you need) really such a hinderance all I can say is you must have too much spare time on your hands. All in all the best phone I have ever owned and can't see anything on the market to rival it at the moment
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xl VipeR lx:
My battery life is great. I'm running a custom rom with android 2.2.1 and its much better. Battery life its great. On stock kernal without overclock its still fast. And many improvements. And I'm running my own theme
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joachim Winter:
Nicest phone I have ever had, but it is my first smartphone so.........

Still I have no issues with it, everything works as I would expect and the battery life is fine (although I do charge it every night so I would expect it to be okay).

I am using Cyanogen 6.1.3 rather than the stock sense rom as it is just streets ahead in terms of functionality and usability imho.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigdhd:
It may not have highest res or deepest blacks, it may have a few glitches in firmware and it isn't gonna be the fastest phone forever, it could use a kickstand and it occasionally lags and yep the battery aint powerful enough but if you spend your life looking for faults you'll find them in everything.

There's pros and cons to every device at the moment but the dhd strikes a balance and the uni-body construction makes it feel better than anything else.

Not only is this the best phone I've owned it's one of the best gadgets.

My only complaint, and it's of all android phones, is I wish they would standardise some things in construction to better accommodate accessories such as remotes & speaker docks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sengork:
That's exactly the reason I got mine from overseas and not via Vodafone who got the exclusive right to sell DHD officially in Oz. Perhaps their coverage will increase after the recent VodaFail affair...

There are many great things about DHD however I'll point out what were the minuses for me, as the list is much shorter.

Hardware things I don't like on my DHD:

- battery life

- SIM cover mechanism

- lack of loudness during phone calls on both speakers

Software wise (these are Android specific more than DHD):

- SMS messages dissapearing

- unreliable SMS message delivery/notifications

- bundled SD card failure after OTA (I assume this was software relared)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forelli:
Just have a look at the Hd2 and Desire (my 2 last devices) forums and you'll see what I'm talking about. The roms are one thing, the themes and customisations are something else. Maybe I didn't make myself clear enough: there is just not enough compared to what I'm used to.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegis:
I remember when I purchased the iphone in 2007 the phone was extramly buggy and language update where only made by crazy hackers, I don't even want to talk about unlocking and cracking the OS with almost no tools avialable,

4 year into the future... the DHD is the true evolution for the smartphone market, its just amazing to think what will happen in 4 years....

BTW I sold the iphone 1 years later...

About the DHD, its the best phone I ever own, its not perfect, but who is?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
This phone is the sex. My only regret is that I grabbed it at launch and paid too much for it because supply was short.

Sent from my performance enhanced Desire HD.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobdeagle:
Love mine except bought on release so probably paid too much, and with all the delays I probably should have have got a nexus s. But any way I still love it just wish it was on a stock Rom but with xda that can be fixed :p

Also I moved from legend so the screen size difference was huge sometimes I still feel it is a bit big and I'm worried I might drop it during one handed typing or something but I'm sure ill get used to it
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MisterBuggie:
Oh good grief... It hasn't had time to build up a user base large enough to have as much customisation as older phones. Give it a chance. Or next time don't buy a phone if it hasn't been out for 6 months... It's not the phones fault if you're too impatient.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forelli:
I'm not impatient: have a look at the G2 and Nexus S forums...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridium21:
Desire HD issues? I've had this phone a couple of weeks now and I can't really say I've noticed any.

Regrets? Yeah, that I didn't ditch Windows Mobile much sooner!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wakers:
Loving mine, yes you got to charge it every night if your a heavy user, but i've had to do that with most of my previous phones there are guys claiming to have over 3days use with a single charge and light use thats good by any smartphone standard...

After having a HD2 (which i loved) an Iphone 4(which was ok) this for me is the best phone i've tried, the battery cover and sim cover fit fine and i've had no issue's removing or refitting either.

Sure for a little while there were few roms but in all honestly unlike my HD2 where i was always trying roms to get the best out of the phone, the DHD just works, to the point i think it'll be a while before i upgrade, really not sure what else i would prefer at the moment :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridium21:
I've got to agree. I know there's a few ROMs about but it works so well I can't see the point in messing about changing it at the moment. Unlike the POS Touch Pro 2 I had until recently.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathJester:
Without a doubt, it is the best smartphone I've ever used. Not the best phone, but definitely the best smartphone.

FYI: The best phone I've used is the Nokia 6310i. I still use that when I go camping, and it lasts for a week without charging. With the original battery from 8 years ago.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] betoNL:
I did ask before but no reaction so trying again here

I am on JPH since it was available. Always get around 1000 quadrant..

GPS works, no lag problems no lag-fix needed.

But

FM is still mono.....voice dialing (and over bluetooth) is crappy....

On JPA/JPO is FM stereo? And how voice dialing over bluetooth is doing on these "official" firmwares?

Tks

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoatemuhrice:
Earlier this week I uninstalled Facebook for HTC Sense using Titanium Backup, not realizing that it was what was responsible for syncing all the pictures of my contacts. I tried to reinstall it using its .apk and appinstaller but this didn't work. Thus I decided to make a nandroid backup and then install the stock ROM PC36IMG.zip. I did my back ups and used Clockwork to install the ROM.

At this point Clockwork gave me an error saying the ROM was invalid, and kicked me back to the HBOOT screen. After several tries, I finally got my phone to load using the PC36IMG.zip from the HBOOT screen.

However, my phone is no longer rooted as it was before. All of my attempts at using unrevoked3 on both a PC and a Mac have failed. On PC when I attempt to install the HBOOT drivers it says there are no drivers for the android bootloader interface and on the apple computer it just didn't recognize the phone. Am I out of luck on rooting my phone? Is my phone actually still rooted but this ROM just doesn't 'recognize' it?

I have what I assume are 2 full back ups of my system in the clockwork folder on my SD card and all my data backups in the Titanium backup folder but without root I'm at a loss as to how to restore these things.

Ok do try this install HTC sync from your computer and go through the setup step by step for unrevoked make sure you download everything fresh and new delete the old files and applications and try it on the pc version for unrevoked remember it reboot a couple times when it happens if that fails use the adb method through your android sdk tools folder it will work its only a matter of finding the method needed
[7 Mozart General] forgotten_soul:
Dear Sirs,

I think that the Mozart is a fine device.

Unfortunately, Microsoft has finally arrived with its mobile branch in the

windows world,

where there is the old saying :

"if there is a service pack 2, then you can start to work with the operating system".

So I am thinking of getting a mozart,

and let windows mobile 6.5 run on it,

until summer next year, where I expect WM 7 to be useable.

Are there any people who have done this yet,

or are you all eager to play with Windows Phone 7 and it's Bugs ?

Regards,

Soulchen
[7 Mozart General] chex13:
You haven't actually used it have you?

Regardless, it's an idiotic idea, if you want WM get a WM phone and upgrade to a next gen WP device next year.
[7 Mozart General] forgotten_soul:
using it

I am currently using WM 6.0 on a HTC device branded by T-Mobile.

"MDA Compact IV".

So I admit that I haven't used 6.5, but I think - as 6.0 is quite fine - that 6.5 sould be better than 6.0.

(if it's not, please tell me)

as Win 7 has no copy and paste, no direct syncing to outlook without the web,

and it's quite locked up,

I think, that somehow 6.5 seems a better idea for me than 7.

Regards,

Soulchen
[7 Mozart General] regificus:
Hallo @all,

I also would like to use WM 6.5.5 on the Mozart. Is this to be expected?

I had to take the T-Mobile Mozart (16GB) but I have a HD2 and I love this because of the Option to run ANdroid and 6.5.5 .... If this is not realistic I will sell the Mozart otherwise pherhaps the HD2

Thanks in advice
[7 Mozart General] Aerox912:
In every way, windows phone 7 is better than 6.5, no doubt about it.

And besides that, there is no way to install wm6.5 to the mozart, nor will anyone try to develop it, because there really is no sense in putting an crappy os like wm6.5 when you have Windows Phone 7 that is working great out of the box. And wm6.5 has no multi-touch so aint never gonna work on our SLCD screens.
[7 Mozart General] breakbystealth:
If you love 6.5 and dont like wp7, whats the point in getting a mozart?

The only reason i can see in getting a mozart is :-

A) you want one.

B) you want to try wp7.

If you have a hd2 and are happy with the fine selection of roms there are then stick with it. If wp7 was out for the hd2 i would have not got the mozart as i think the hd2 is a much nicer phone. I like wp7 and the mozart but would much rather have wp7 on my hd2. wp7 still needs time to grow and the problems and bugs will start to fix so let judge it once some of the problems have been addressed, i mean when was the last time anyone can remember microsoft putting out anything that works straight out the box with no bugs or problems? We all get phones running their os and spend time here chatting rubbish about them, but we all keep flashing roms and waiting for the next big fix or tweak. If you want 6.5 on a mozart your wasting you money, get the hd2 or just get in with the rest of the robots and get an iphone.
[7 Mozart General] rxsoob:
Buy my 8 month old HTC HD2 from me then if you want 6.5.5

Just remember, the Mozart is a Windows Phone 7 only. And to consider downgrading for functionality as simple as cut and paste and tethering, well your missing the point of the new OS totally.

There are stacks of 6.5.5 models still available, as i said.. by mine!
[7 Mozart General] breakbystealth:
has he asked if your hd2 can be downgraded to 6.1, sorry could not resist. :D
[7 Mozart General] FSB:
You have to use WP7, it is fantastic, sooo much better than 6.5.

I now have a phone that works and does everything it needs to. It has shown me that a phone is not a computer, and should not be used as one. Using the cloud is so efficient for my small business, I wish I had done it sooner.

Obviously there are some things to be added, but this is to be expected for something new.
[7 Mozart General] Gyuritzy:
Lack of software!!!

I am not arguing about how great WP7 is... It is just great, and working just fine, but I really don't see the point of having a nice device if you can not use it's gps for navigation unless you have a flatrate with bing maps?!?!

I have tons of WM 6 apps laying around (installed on other wm6 device) and I have a very nice phone WP7 but I have to carry both of them with me if I want to navigate...
[7 Mozart General] onleefl0w:
Mozarts from T-Mobile Germany come with Navigon Select pre-installed (check out the T-Mobile Windows Phone website for details). If it wasn't on your device, you can download it for free!
[7 Mozart General] Gyuritzy:
I bought the device without a contract, to use it with my prepaid.

So, it is not the case...

I could download Navigon only if I were a Telekom user, which I am not, so I will have to wait till the next year... perhaps some navigation software developer will make wp7 navigation (not taking navigon in account, other navigation software suppliers did not announce their will to develop for WP7)
[7 Mozart General] prr:
Hi All,

I'm also disappointed from WM7 Mozart. Actually it is a very nice phone ... unless you want to do some work with it. It doesn't have copy+paste (crazy like the first iPhones :confused:), it doesn't sync with Outlook (stupid on-line sync with MicrosoftLive costs a lot of money if you are traveling!), doesn't run the old apps (actually this was one of the biggest Microsoft advantages - the backward compatibility), lack of navigation (I'm missing quite a lot iGo and Garmin) and finally - the lack of tethering. The latest is killing me (I can live with the others but that one...) as I'm using the phone to access Internet and do my job when I have an emergency. Now I have to choose - either phone or GSM modem to access Internet. This is ridiculous.

So I'm waiting either Microsoft to have the tethering back or to have WM6.5 on Mozart. Or else - bye-bye WM7! I don't have so much money to spend just for a nice looking device which actually does ... nothing :eek:

BR
[7 Mozart General] GenkaiMade:
For the love of God THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS WM7!!! It is WINDOWS PHONE 7, and is a totally different operating system.
[7 Mozart General] tonywenz:
Wm6 wm6.5 wp7

As i recently got a Mozart, i have been watching this post with interest. I can only agree the WM6 WM6.5 are sooooo different from W-PHONE 7. To down grade a Mozart to WM6.5 may work, but it would need someone with the skills and a good reason to do it.

I have used WM6 & WM6.5 on my HTC Rhodium. They both are different in layout/feel/working method, but run similar Apps. so far NONE of these run on WP7, as its a different OS.

My suggestion is keep the Mozart on WP7, and good Apps WILL follow. If you want to run WM6 or 6.5 Apps, get yourself a nice HTC Rhodium. You should get a good one on e bay or similar.
[7 Mozart General] kabumm:
Well, old post, but:

You can get a T-Mo Prepaid-Sim or some of your friends/family have a T-Mo SIM,

put it in and downloading Navigon should work. After that put your usual SIM in and that's it.

I've read somewhere that this should work.
[7 Mozart General] andy6667:
Pls can someone explain to me why 6.5 cannot be loaded on a mozart?

I got a mozart and would love 6.5 on it,7 SUCKS!my gps doesn`t work(my country not supported)Zune doesnt work(my country not supported)Cloud = not working(my country again)7 is as usefull as symbian on a nokia 3310 in south africa.

Please can someone help me to get 6.5 on my mozart.Or at least point me in the right direction.
[7 Mozart General] andremgomes:
Wp7 jailed users ... Because you can not install or create your applications without pass thru Market Place MS approval. I bought a HTC Mozart to try WP7, Its a great OS but if you can not install your developed Aplication. Your freedom is lost... Why M$ do not allow your choice ? The better thing about microsoft was the freedom, but now... When available I will downgrade to wm6.5 and wait wp7 becomes better.
[7 Mozart General] idonxda:
I would be idiot if i have this idea in even in my dream. if one wants window 6.5 then why to buy mozart its simply a not respecting the money and its value and beauty of innovation /technology. I believe people who takes the time to even read and reply this thread is like a wasting of our time.
[7 Mozart General] andy6667:
The Question still stands: IS IT POSSIBLE to load 6.5 on a mozart?what is needed to do it?
[7 Mozart General] idonxda:
looks like this is a spam thread
[7 Mozart General] Pyls:
If there was anything in my mozart that reminded me of winmo 6.5 i would never bought it.

Was using a HTC HD two years ago and i have never tried a slower mobile.

It was almost useless even with good tweaked rooms.

Would pay a person to molest the person who invented a pen to navigate a mobile with. And Winmo was actualy best if you used pen to write text messages.

Would also hug the guy who made fingerkeyboard on xda and kiss the guys who have tried to cook roms for these useless devices.
[7 Mozart General] ojejoe:
WP7 is another iPhone, here we have Zune they have iTunes, Bing search is going to be introduced on iPhone, they just want to control people and know our habits.

With WM6.1 and 6.5 we have our freedom.

I was thinking of HD2, it is too big, I have chosen Mozart because of its size and I didn't

research what WP7 was.

I am in favor of downgrading to WM6.5, I want my freedom back.
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
jesus guys...

THERE IS NO WM6.5 FOR MOZART AND THERE PROBABLY NEVER WILL BE

is that all ok and clear?

It takes a SERIOUS amount of work to port an OS to another phone - and the vast majority of us don't want it. The few Mozart users who know how to rewrite the bootloader, CID unlock, rewrite the SPL ... whatever needs actually DOING on these device - are far too busy trying to tweak WP7 to want to jump back 5 years for no reason.

If we wanted WM6.5 - we'd have bought WM6.5 devices.

It's not happening.
[7 Mozart General] paul_ross24:
the only major problem i have found with wm7 is it doesnt support flash as yet
[7 Mozart General] suber:
wm 6.5.3 or wm 6.5.5 on wp htc mozart?

helo what about wm 6.5.3 or 6.5.5 that supports multitouch screens?

htc mozart is beautiful, but wp is horrible, i return to my htc touch2 wm6.5 movistar, and changed to orange because mozart dont have tomtom not sincronice BCM for outlook and i dont like this.

thx
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
no

same thing, see replies above
[7 Mozart General] BobbyDean:
The problem is that there are now only WP7 phones for sale new. You have to buy a second hand phone to get WM6.5 ... I love my HD2 with WM6.5 and my girlfriend got a Mozart WP7, It's a nice phone but she hates WP7 and that she can't do what I can with my phone ... we can't even bluetooth our own photos to each other and all the lockdowns etc mentioned ... WP7 sucks and I'll never get a phone with it ... No WM6.5, then my next phone will be Android and so will hers!
[7 Mozart General] the_Enlightened:
Screw android:) gimmie wm 6.5 om ny mozart! However, i'm happy with my mango mozart
[7 Mozart General] the_Enlightened:

Stop spamming the thread! Other persons would like to discuss it, so don't waste storage-capacity on xda-servers:)
[7 Mozart General] the_Enlightened:
Excellent OS!

Wp7 as a OS is superb and if you know your way around the bits and bytes, then share your skydrive:) My Mozart with Mango are galaxies beyond wm 6.5... even though I'd still like to see an Energy 6.5 rom on it:)
[7 Mozart General] macrofeet:
reasons for wanting 6.5

Use phone to copy files from 1 pc to another

browse files better

Install cab files and market place without dodgy Unlock

Play Genesis and PS1 emu

battery life and advance system tools, VNC, sharing, weather

paid 4apps that are not yet on 7

free apps not yet on 7

most 6.5 devices I can buy , aging and low screen res, slow modem, low spec
[7 Mozart General] GodlikePL:
Guys it is POSSIBLE. Cotulla did this, ask him at CotullaCode twitter if you want to know. It's called WM 6.5 Loader
[G2 and Desire Z General] bcking81:
Quick question guys. I sucessfully got the perm root on my G2. the problem I run into is that when I tried to make a back-up using rom manager is after reboot i go to the screen with the red triangel and ! point and contine to get the E: can't open/cache/recovery/command. I still have perm root and superuser permission but am a little clueles on how to make a backup. And when i reboot it goes to andriod system recovery <3> not clockmod or ra. Any help would be aprreciate guys
[G2 and Desire Z General] g_grey:
i think you need to wait for clockwork recovery since that is what enables the backup on other devices.

or you could create an image of each partition of the phone and save it to the sdcard
