What i like about this phone :
1. Sense interface on stock tab (can assess euro/myr rate at ease)
2. Excellent video running AVI file at coreplayer landscape mode.
3. Facebook link at contacts

Problem facing :
1. Once a got sms stuck at outbox. Uninstall the battery manager app and so far behaving ok.
2. Seek help on this - i can't get the phone keypad in messaging. i am used to that rather than qwerty. The keyboard pop up button bring me to only (Text input setting, Zhu Yin, Pin Yin, Cang Jie, Stroke, handwriting, About). What went wrong ?

Sorry for giving you wrong info. sad.gif

BTW, You don't even need to tweak it if you want a standard 12key phone keypad.

Just press the keyboard pop up menu, select QWERTY with the arrow button  and choose phone keypad.

Thats it  tongue.gif

Well, I discovered that even if my HD2 is in the stock pouch, I can still access the screen  shocking.gif

By the way, just tried SWYPE last night and its a must have from now on  rclxms.gif

LMAO for the video call part thumbup.gif

Never do any research before you buy such an expensive item? doh.gif

Anyway, why do you say swype is not working? its not starting on your phone or?

its working perfectly on mine, just swipe your finger to the alphabets and it will appear on the screen, so much faster than typing seriously flex.gif



No, i played with it a while then decided not my choice. Maybe i need to master it. Good to hear you find it useful, maybe i give it a try again.

As for the video call thing, i overlook as i thought it still can be done. A lot of phones with no front camera still can do video call. I believed it must have been the battery usage issue which deter HD2 having it.

video call is not very useful for everybody. sad.gif

For me, at least, video call is not practical at all.

I have done video calling for less than 5 times with my old cruise (2 years of usage)

I used Fring to log in skype and video call free to all my skype frens all over the world via 3.5g free under N97 previously.
Now ....no more .....i thought the HD2 screen will show better picture now but....

You canl use Co0kie Home Tab even on stock ROM. It is a Must Have to enhance the Manila Home Screen. Highly recommended.

Is your Manila version 1.0.19211620.0? Device  from Hong Kong?
If it is, the Manila is essentially 2.5.1922 therefore you could install Co0kie Home Tab biggrin.gif

Yes, exactly.
Mine is an AP set, haha, so its a HK set.
Btw, from where you can obtain such info...
Really thanks for the advise, will be installing Cookie Home Tab now.

Seek some sifu here for assistance :

a. The speakerphone and handsfree earphone volume is so so loud when connected. Is there a way to overcome this ?


b. When using the Compact QWERTY or the Phone Keypad, you can also manually add new words to the dictionary.
1. While in XT9 mode, type a letter and then tap the down arrow icon ( ) on the right side of the word suggestions list.
2. Tap Add word. ( I AM STUCK HERE - I CANT FIND THIS TAP ADD WORD)
3 Type the new word you want to add and then tap the check mark icon ( ).

c. I thought IE browser support flash. but while in Facebook, while opening up some video, there is this error message - get Adoce flash player required.

(did some checking - you can view it via Skyfire browser but this browser not so user friendly)
but via IE and Opera, you can't.
