Oh.. okay.. thanks for the clarification..


Another quick question here, anyone here uses skype? I read on skype forum that HTC phones have problems (voice quality, call drop, etc), so I want to check if anyone here faces the same problem or not.

if they are in malaysia... then try to check are they using Wifi or 3G or HSPDA... the later 2 might has problem coz the signal is not strong at all... i always reception problem on 3G network, hence i use only GSM (EDGE)...

maybe you can try out yourself too on this...


*** if you wanna try i'm online now... add me michaelleong9413... then we try wifi and 3G connection

HTC Vision is the codename for HTC Desire Z and T Mobile G2.

Looking for change log of the OTAs. If anyone can find, post it up.

Anyway, OTAs should only be of concern if you're interested in rooting. Generally the stock 1.34 is best for rooting coz that's where all the rooting effort has been concentrated on. And if you have rooted you probably have flashed a custom rom over it.

However if you're fairly confident and sure that you will not go the root route, it's ok to install the OTA i guess?

Some say do s-off with gfree first coz OTAs will not change status of security flag. Do more reading on it if interested. The resources are at the front page (XDA, for short).

^2.3 is not out officially yet. So far the one of the 2.3 custom ROMs is CM7, which is very near to its stable release already.

Another is GingerSense which is based on the Wildfire S and HTC HuaShan leak. That one is as close to a Sense-d 2.3 ROM as it gets until Desire Z gets its taste of the gingerbread.

Oh there's also another one based on the Desire HD 2.3 ROM leak, which also has Sense.

There really isn't a point in watching 720p or higher resolution on the Desire Z (or any 800X480 screen for that matter). The maximum height is 480, so anything beyond that is taxing for the phone to downsize, but doesn't actually bring improved clarity/crispness. HQ I guess is 480p.

Thanks. Any of those rom work with G2 model? I would love to try Gingersense after my final.

Guys, I'm not sure if anyone ever asked but how do I blast / send SMS to all my contacts?

Hrmm it seem stock (vanilla android) messaging app doesn't have the select all option. I'm using chomp sms and there's an option to 'select all'.

Okay..my G2 batery finised after internet+apps usage for about 4-5 hours. Normal?

I saw from other forum they said that G2 battery will improve when the more you charge. True?

^yes, and that is true for all modern cellphones.

Well if u are using gps n wifi yes it will... my phone drops 20% this morning in 1 hour, gaming, call and sync (3g) while waiting for my colleague...

^ i know from experience wifi eats 20% battery life per hour of non-stop data transmission (LYN-ing, youtubing, etc)

Leaving wifi on but no data transfer doesn't eat battery life that much (negligible in my case).

I just ezperience something shock after ur post..I on wifi and transfer file over lan and my phone reach 15 % within 30 minutes..

From 100%?

Yes. Is it because of huge files? damn..or is the battery at fault ._.

Possible be due to the file size. Generally if you phone can tahan one day with moderate usage then it should be fine. You can't really expect your phone to not have battery usage if you make it do strenuous work.

Try the same thing after about 2 weeks of normal using the phone. Maybe the battery is not used to being used yet.

But dun obsess too much with battery life.

Alrighty. Noted. Thanks again ("

but i need to charge twice... by 1pm my battery only left 50%+ only...
my usage is indeed on the high side...

^lol no smartphone can tahan heavy usage throughout the day.

Like no car can tahan going up and down the North-South Highway continuously without needing a refill eventually.

For me if the meter is approaching 40-30% in the middle of the day, if I have no intention to recharge it, I just control my usage and let it survive thru the day. Standby time is excellent, this thing.
