Yeah, that's the thing that bugs me also, but then, the rumoured retail price for HD2 is 3.3-3.4k .. a friend of mine called up HTC malaysia, they said the price would be 3.4k or so.. So you save about 400RM...

Ya.. really a lot of uncertainties.. hmmm maybe i'll drop by the shop later to ask for more details. I'm not sure if the employees there know much about this either. Few days ago i called them they were quite clueless.

It seems that the guy who posted in garage sales is the owner. according to the article.

well i had a few personal encounters at gadza, can't say they're offering class A service.. but then, i don't really care much about the service, just give me the phone and make sure my warranty works.. heh

wow is this true?? that's fast!

Btw, i just went to QBM to pay the deposit.. Else i'll just keep thinking to myself.. to pay or not to pay.. (already had few sleepless nights because of this...)

I found out that Gadzaworld and YQC technology are the same company or related some how.

yeapch is from YQC technology. i guess he's the owner of gadza too.

at least we don't need to worry about screen being scratched for HD2

Screen protector is to protect from scratches.. since it's scratch proof.. what do you think?

hi All

Just FYI, i paid deposit 300 to Yeap for the HD2 when he offered the price for HD2 at 3088, just now i just emailed him and he said he'll reduce my 3088 to 2888 accordingly

Meaning now i only need to pay 2588

If you're from penang, i'd recommend just getting from him

I'm not that much of a gamer myself.. not on my hp at least..

but i'd love to use the big screen to surf some web and listen to music and video though, that's good enough for me.. it's all about the big... big... BIG.. screen...

Could be OS could be others too...

Best is we just have to live with it till xda starts cooking good roms out. It'll take them awhile i guess..

So far i've heard the issues are

1. SMS problem (maybe fixable through new Rom or patch)
2. Camera red lens problem (probably a hardware issue.. probably gotta use warranty)
3. 3D engine problem.. something about the benchmark for video / 3d stuff.. probably will be fixed with new driver later or so..

So, do remember to check your phones when you get it.

of all the problems here..

1. Pinch to Zoom, this will take awhile before windows / Roms will let us do so, it's not really a bug or issue, but more like a feature that's not in yet.
2. Too many sms.. as long as the sms gets sent, then it's no problem, but if it doesn't then that's another story. From what i heard people's SMS gets stuck at the out going queue. Then you gotta reset to get it sent. I think after awhile, someone will come up with some tweak / rom to fix this. Remember, most people (no matter where you are or what service) most likely they're all using the default HTC rom. Maybe the later Roms will fix this problem. (gotta continue to monitor the thread at xda)

3. this is very very subjective, gotta try it out myself to know.. maybe that person who complained about it isn't use to a capacitive screen?

4. This one we must try it out, it's not every unit, but if you get it, make sure you claim warranty

5. Of all the problems, i think this is the worst one, though it's not a breaking issue, but it's certainly an annoyance.. i'm not even sure we can claim warranty for this one when it comes out, just have to try and see i guess..

according to YEap and the other guy, both saying next week. But i think best bet is during PC Fair.

As for the number of hours yes.. 8 hrs for all those stuff is excellent. Mine.. (probably also because an old battery) only last 30mins for video ALONE... very said..

i'm just hoping our batch of HD2 phones already have this fixed so we don't need to use the warranty

maybe we shuold have some sort of checklist to follow when we get our phones..

Ok to quote from a previous user..

here's a handful of it.


Immediate Check List
1. Volume Up button not working (hardware issue?? can it be adjusted by software?)
2. Keyboard Lag (hardware issue?? can it be adjusted by software?)
3. Screen too sensitive (hardware issue?? can it be adjusted by software?)
4. Camera Photo Red Color Tint (hardware issue)
5. Dust in screen (hardware issue)

Pending Check list
1. Missing SMS
2. Missing Weeks in calendar ? (i think this one can be fixed by rom though)


Hardware issues are those that we've gotta return and ask HTC to fix.. those that can be fixed by software maybe can be fixed through different ROms and radios and such.

Feel free to add the list.

mine is coming this weds - fri, according to the person i bought from ooo i can't wait.... let it be weds ^.^

With or Without Pink Camera Dot Problem

This one's interesting:

Guess not everyone has it, but ALOT of people does.. let's cross our fingers guys...

I'll be getting mine this week, will let you guys know then

Yes that could potentially be good to us, because the western batch is the 1st batch (those launched in Euro and such)

Let's cross our fingers i guess

from Xda-developer, it seems that someone with nokia N97 also has the problem. it seems to be a common problem with 5mega pixel phone cameras..
