2.08.50.08_2 + 2.10 ROM = OK
2.08.50.08_2 + 1.66 ROM = noise

Now using 2.09 + 1.66 ROM = delightful

Nope. I'm testing LeoLite v3.0. No rubbish like other tweaked ROMs. It's like the official ROM, just a lite version (after Mr. Vandalay removed unnecessary apps)

reading Version1 102pages + version2 64 pages~

i would like to ask something i'm confused about~

1st, as i'm a lite WinMo user be4 this~ so i have some reason for me to get a WinMo like HD2
in term of software, i would like to have these kind of features inside my phone:
Facebook, YouTube and Twitter
Pocket Office Maybe Note will be fine too~ but those office which can be use as the same like pc or mayb sync together would be good for my business used~
Multi-touch input method < just wanna to try something New flex.gif
fullflash supported web browser < i wonder can this be done in Android?? hmm.gif
i dont really care bout GPS as i already own my Garmin Nuvi~ whistling.gif ^^"
Weather is a must too~ business used~

Hardware:
Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD8250 1 GHz processor wub.gif
480 x 800 pixels (currently the best~)
Camera 3.0 MP or Above~ < business used too~

so now questions come :
1. did the SMS issue fixed?? i'm not always using it but i need that~ (who doesnt need it??)
2. i'm using Hotlink & DiGi postpaid~ so will there have any problem if i use the DiGi for HD2 (sms issue?) So far no DiGi user had this issue right??
3. Sms display in traditional mode will made the device run without the sending issue??

4. Camera Pinky issue fixed?? as i always used it for work~ & i like to take photo whenever i saw a nice & looks good dishes~
5. heard something like that, camera pink tint issue is fixed by official hotfix~ but Video cant be fixed~!! & there not really fix the problem~ it's just adjusted the features of the camera black & white balance something like that to made the pink tint slightly unnoticeable only~ is that true??

6. Do 8gb SD & 16gb SD makes different in ur device?? Lag?? Slow??

7. Some people says need to charge minimum 8 hours. if dont, what will happen next then??

8. Some people said they cant see others comments on their facebook post.. Update Facebook thro Marketplace to latest version will fix it??

9. which antivirus is available for HD2?? dont really use that when previous HD~ do i really need that??

10. Hard SPL will void the warranty~ fo this can change it back to Ori SPL??
To get back ur ori SPL,
A. Download an official rom from htc
B. Extract the exe with winrar ... just take the .nbh file
C. copy the .nbh file to the sd card and rename it to leoimg.nbh
D. reboot while holding the volume down. this will restore the original spl.

11. Radio update will void the warranty too??

12. Never let your phone battery drop below 10%, it will spoil the battery. i tot fully used & fully charged will active all the cells in Lithium-ion battery, not??

13. the micro USB head is different with previous HTC products port??

14. getting extra 576MB RAM doesnt seem to run the device faster then Y ppl still looking forward for it?? ><"

15. wat is the use of .NET Compact Framework 3.5 ?

16. Pc Fair is coming on april 1st week~ so should i wait till the times coming only purchase my lovely device or??? will they reduce the price when PC fair or after PC fair??

suggestion for all HD2 user~ buying a quality leather case is needed for ur baby~
it's gonna be serious if u DROP it~ i would rather buy a case better to waste my time going SiS to pay 80dollar not refundable fees for repairing ur device!!!

Wow so many questions! My respect for reading all the posts!!! rclxms.gif

My short reply: HD2 is suitable for your use and most issued raised by you have been resolved with hotfixes or new ROMs. Time to buy.

Hardware:
Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD8250 1 GHz processor  wub.gif
480 x 800 pixels (currently the best~)
Camera 3.0 MP or Above~ < business used too~

so now questions come :
1. did the SMS issue fixed?? i'm not always using it but i need that~ (who doesnt need it??)

>>>> If you are buying a new unit and is rom 1.66 above - not necessary to apply fix. But if you need no harm applying. My advise is always don't apply fix unless you have such issue. My hd2 since day one on original rom 1.48 I never face such SMS issues - themn I upgraded to 1.66 and now for last 4 months on cooked roms : till today I never faced SMS problems

2. i'm using Hotlink & DiGi postpaid~ so will there have any problem if i use the DiGi for HD2 (sms issue?) So far no DiGi user had this issue right??

>>>> NO such issues on my Digi prepaid or Celcom postpaid  ;  don't think SMS is anyeay related to telco

3. Sms display in traditional mode will made the device run without the sending issue??

>>>> NO such issues - I used only traditional mode

4. Camera Pinky issue fixed?? as i always used it for work~ & i like to take photo whenever i saw a nice & looks good dishes~

>>>> Yes already fixed in rom 1.66 and above ;

5. heard something like that, camera pink tint issue is fixed by official hotfix~ but Video cant be fixed~!! & there not really fix the problem~ it's just adjusted the features of the camera black & white balance something like that to made the pink tint slightly unnoticeable only~ is that true??

>>>> I 'd say don't be too concerned ; you also hear about postive comments about the fix ; don't let negative comments affect you unlesss you think this is very important; then decision is easy - forget about buying it if you have doubts

6. Do 8gb SD & 16gb SD makes different in ur device?? Lag?? Slow??

I don't see any difference as I have earlier use 8gb and now on 16gb; all these "slow" or "fast" is subkjective . What the heck a few milliseconds matter - is it so crucial ??? Anyway I don't even notice. Talking about SD , everyone will tell you Sandisk is best - but I have now 2 spoilt 8GB Sandisk both corrupted cannot e read by PC/or my MAC ( I guess must b e I keep flashing changing roms ) after 2 months use. Now I use a cheaper chup piao brand and so much cheaper never have issues at all alreadsy 3 months and still flashing/changing roms withit

7. Some people says need to charge minimum 8 hours. if dont, what will happen next then??

>>> Is just pure nonsense. The so called 8 hours is recommended first charge and is recommended not a MUST. Soetimes we feel better as we think with a full 8 hours first charge battery can last longer - you just try yourself; anyway what is the problem charging 8 hours it is not 80 hours. Just leave it overnight when you sleep lah!

8. Some people said they cant see others comments on their facebook post.. Update Facebook thro Marketplace to latest version will fix it??

>>> Again this is nonsense as only claim by a few ; problem these few never tell you whole story on what else they have installed that could affect it or whether they were on some cooked roms which is not compatible

9. which antivirus is available for HD2?? dont really use that when previous HD~ do i really need that??

>>> I don't think is necessary

10. Hard SPL will void the warranty~ fo this can change it back to Ori SPL??
To get back ur ori SPL,
A. Download an official rom from htc
B. Extract the exe with winrar ... just take the .nbh file
C. copy the .nbh file to the sd card and rename it to leoimg.nbh
D. reboot while holding the volume down. this will restore the original spl.

>>>>> YES : you can change back to ori rom but you must undo the spl - is easy

11. Radio update will void the warranty too??

>>> Yes unless is official htc release in this region

12. Never let your phone battery drop below 10%, it will spoil the battery. i tot fully used & fully charged will active all the cells in Lithium-ion battery, not??

>>> Again is some unproved nonsense ; I ahve been using pda phones for 12 years and battery used until dead I never have battery spoil. UNLESS you buy some cheap alternative batteries

13. the micro USB head is different with previous HTC products port??

>>> THis HD2 is using micro USB ; all earlier htc models use miniUSB

14. getting extra 576MB RAM doesnt seem to run the device faster then Y ppl still looking forward for it?? ><"

>>> This 576 mb ram I feel is just a marketing ploy to attract people to use the rom ; I don't see any difference vs the ori 448MB ram. I can justify this as I have tried practically most of the popular roms claiming 576MB ram .

15. wat is the use of .NET Compact Framework 3.5 ?

>>> This is needed to run some programs ed BSB tweaks

16. Pc Fair is coming on april 1st week~ so should i wait till the times coming only purchase my lovely device or??? will they reduce the price when PC fair or after PC fair??

>>>> There is never a good time or bad time to buy. Electronic productas over time value will drop - so you decide to buy based on your need to use it. The present price is attractive considering miost of us bought in the early months of lauch at 2.6-2.8 K ; now AP sets can get for only 2.2-2.3 k and ori around 2.5k

suggestion for all HD2 user~ buying a quality leather case is needed for ur baby~
it's gonna be serious if u DROP it~ i would rather buy a case better to waste my time going SiS to pay 80dollar not refundable fees for repairing ur device!!!

Flash support already on htc Hero and Nexus One ( Android 2.1).

If you are looking at software fuller features/functionality - Windows is your better bet ; see my posting earlier up at page 61 post # 1207 where I compared the HD2 with Nexus . I own both phones

SMS issues - if you browse the web especially in the last 1 month plus - you rarely read people posting about it ; I guess the new rom and hotfix had solve it. As I said earlier I never face this issue. I have 4 other personal friends iusing the HD2 also face no SMS issues

I'd say any phone the screen can break if you drop it hard; the HD2 screen however being capacitative is literally scratch proof . You can put in your pocket together with your keys and the screen will not be scratch unlike other phones with resistive screens

Lastly if you are more social type - and facebook, twitter , rss etc important - the Nexus One is a better choice ; it is more dynamic and fast in updating feeds and interaction

Cos nowdays HTC are going to came out more & more Android phones with better out looking~
i was there when HD is out & i really love it~ but feels like it's too much on Apps & tweaks + flash ROM etc for WinMo~
seem like Android is easier to use (i'm new there~ LoL)~ no need always searching for better ROM better Apps~ (still limited apps there if not mistaken)
And something like SMS camera alot of issue found in HD2 seems like Android Nexus One have no problem with it~
HTC HD2 is the ONLY 1 running snapdragon with WinMo~ others brand do run snapdragon with winmo but not as good as HTC did~
i dint use Android be4~ so i tot i'll need to learn a lot for that~ some more i dont really know wat i usually do in Winmo can be done well in Android or not...
that's y i'm still stick with WinMo phones~

drop & scratches will always happened on my phones~ that's y i'm kinda worried about the glass break & i'm outstation always~
so sometimes i dont really have the time to go SiS for repairing my device~ ><"

better camera is needed too for personal usage~ others seem good~
the main point is wat a phone can do it Must be done pretty well @ expensive phone like HTC's~
if u willing to paid that much but come out like SMS, take pics also it's a problem~
then y should we pay that much to only get a 4'3" capacitive touch screen phone??

Based on your comments it is very obvious the HD2 is not suitable for you as most of your points is pointing to why you should not buy it. If you really want a windows pdaphone - your next best choice will be the htc HD which since beginning has no sms or camera issue. It is also cheaper now

The android phone eg Nexus out of the box is a very basic phone -= it is only excellent if you "hack"/or root it to expand its potential. I always tell my friends if one is willing to spend up to rm2.4k for a phone but not willing to learn how to hack/or spl/change roms - might as well get a basic Nokia and which I always highly recommend the E72 or E71.

Most buyers of wm phones buy I believe buy cos of the potential and availability of sources to play with the customization and rom which is seriously lacking in symbian ( even Android ) and worse practically unavailable in iPhone. iPhone ( which I also have) is a very good out of box phone for normal users who is not into tech issues - just use it and you need not worry about customization/hacking ( unless u want to cos one bought a locked set)). It is very good if one emphasis is on audio/video ( with limitations to iTunes sync) and it has a good browser too. It has also avenue to a huge apps market if one like to experiemnt/play with apps-games

So summarize it boils down to what you NEED in the phone and decision then is simple

Dear microbe,

If you worry too much about HD2 performance, maybe you should consider purchasing second/third/forth hand HD2 at lowest price that you can get. Then, if you feel regret, just sell it off (who knows you can sell at higher price than your purchase price....just say it's first hand purchase loh... that's what all the "second hand" shop do maaaa....)

@microbe,

There is no perfect phone. all you need is adapt to the phone functionality.

If you do like your touch HD, then I am pretty sure that you gonna love the HD2. biggrin.gif

HD2 is capable to complete every task that HD could complete, in a faster and more responsive manner biggrin.gif

No point asking for the virtual user experience through Internet, you dont physically get to know how it feels.

Since you said that you are finding one that best fit you, why dont you go to any reseller and ask for a test unit to test it thoroughly and see whether it fits you or not? rclxub.gif

Think about it tongue.gif

Then,

Your most concerned Sms and Camera issue :

This is one of the picture I have tooken with HD2, whats the problem? hmm.gif

then you are ready for HD2.

i think most user here jump from HD1 to HD2 including me.
HD2 even with stock ROM adding all those fix (below 1.66 of course) is pretty stable. i've been on 1.48 for 1month ++ when i bought the phone no issue at all.

Yeah, I wonder why people say HD2 got camera problem. I never had any issues with mine. I know the earlier ROM version has some pinkish tint. Experienced photographer can re-adjust the image properties and the exposure.

I updated mine straight to custom ROM based on 1.72 by Duttys immediately after getting my unit, so I didn't suffer this problem at all. My pictures turned out just as great as yours! So no worries on the picture quality here.

What I see can be improved is the video capturing. Not as good as (I mean smooth) Motorola Milestone. Need to check frame rate and compression levels.
