Nyagaha! Finally!

After a month of chewing my nails to bloody stumps.
Finally.
It arrived.
No! Wait! THEY arrived.
Yes, they are back in stock at o2. They were so grateful for my custom them sent me .. two XDA Execs.
W00t.
Well for now.
Courier was laughing his ass off anyway ..
Said, 'happy christmas!'.
Hehe.
Well anyway this one is new. Shiny, smells of new cars. Screen is NOT as blurry and washed out as other one was. So thats a definate indication I didnt get a new one before ..
Anyway now I am going to get it home and strip the nuts off it.
Started by booting into corporate mode.
Now I need to get some nice software to customize the today screen and hack on the ext rom a bit now Buzz has cracked it.
Damn feel good!

Did you ask o2 for "Stereo Phones"? Now you can make yourself look a right berk by holding a brick up to both ears! ROFL
PS: Sorry I couldn't get the Emoticons to work, but meant the above as a joke!

But I still miss my Universal...and keep on using it when I travel..?

because you like to spend money to buy new things not knowing what you really need.
i also have a universal and a hermes, but i have stopped using my universal, totally. it's too big to carry around although i miss the vga screen.

Now that sounds cruel, be nice, and anyway it's not what we need that matters, none of us need ANY of these devices or virtually any fancy technology. We just WANT them and we want them NOW.
I bet sectorlord even has a pet name for the old Universal. Here Snookams Daddy's going on a trip and you're invited just don't let Hermes see me sneak you into this Laptop Case - there you are now fits like a glove!!!!

well, he seems to want reasons, and i gave him a possible one. how would you answer his question?

I have a Jornada 720 Handheld PC which is about 6 years old and I still use it even though I have new devices. I nearly always take it on trips I can't explain why but I do.

I know and you're absolutely right just some of us feel guilty about spending loads of dosh on gadgets without a specific purpose in mind. I was just joking with you and him!!

How broken is it ? can it be used in any way?
I need a Herald for cooking purpose so if it's working in some way I could maybe use buy it.
I've uploaded a beta that no one wan't to try so if I had a kind of working device I can test myself.

congrats on that, dude. You've now reached the highest status that XDA-devs affords you (other than moderator, but you could actually see that as extra work)
anyway, i've always liked bb for their ridiculous ease of use, and i'm getting kind tired of my touchscreen anyway

ahh...yeah HTC devices are fun but if you do decide to part with one just let me know in a PM, thanks.

Why not just wait for the G1? It's, in all ways?, better than the Herald. Plus a cheap Wing is maybe... 150? Why not just get a G1 for 180 with contract?... unless you're like in the middle of a contract?

Except OS.

What do you mean except the OS? That's the main reason why we all want the G1? Because it's made with Google Android.
Is that what you meant? That the Wing has a better OS than the G1?

I need it for hacking, I don't have any OMAP based HTC's yet, so G1 will not do for this purpose.
(one day I'll get the G1 or similar android HTC, I'm sure)

got one, thanks wlinsong!

New HD2 On its way :-)

Hey All
Just ordered myself a HD2 off of Ebay. Paid $750aud inc shipping. Finally decided to retire my slow old Xperia X1, will prob just keep using it to test new rom's that come out....
Now I have a few questions. Are they're any special tweaks or cabs to install to make it better? What case's are people mainly using with the HD2? Any general problems or things I should know?
Thanks everyone

I think that is very personal.
I am using cookie tab now and it is very good for what i like about a phone. Just look around this forum and read, try and experience !
It`s very nice to try tweaks especially if they are in a cab. If you don`t like it, just uninstall. If anything is not good the folks here will help you set thing right again.
Its a great forum for a great phone
kk

You will not be disappointed... I was worried about the lack of keyboard when I made the change from the X1 to the HD2 and I can tell you its not a problem... for tweaks a must is BSB Tweaks (found on here in a sticky I think), has loads of tweaks that are very handy... there is also a thread on things to do with your HD2 when you get it... some of them are covered by bsb others not so much all handy... I have not yet had a problem with my HD2 but some do... again there are loads of threads about this problem or that... so far (touches wood as probably just jinxed myself) its been all gravy...

I reckon you should stay with the oem rom for at least a week and research this forum. customising your hd2 is a very personal thing, what suits one will not suit another. there's a thread which people post there must have apps, I would try there first. that's my opinion

It is interesting to see how fast the pricing of the Leo drops from 820AUD at the end of Jan to 750AUD now.
But anyway I recommand you to test your device for few days before doing some flashing or customising to see if there is any hardware issues
If I were you I would install several tweak softwares like BSB and HD2Tweak.
just to cover all the available reg tweaks
Just my tiny bit of advice
The Leo should amaze you lol
Cheers

hi guys, i want to ask~
is AU's telstra version hd2 using exactly the same frequencies with US's T MOBILE versions?
thank you.
im not sure if AU's version can use China's WCDMA frequencies.

Ebay
I just hope you get it. I ordered a phone via ebay before and got burnt along with many others, had a good rep etc. Anyway Ebay are basically useless in terms of assisting to get any $ back.
Other than that you'll love it, its a great phone and very customizable.

Its not true. Paypal buyer protection is very good. They always return my money when they should. And the seller must prove that you got the parcel.

Yer I was planning on staying on the stock rom for a bit....funny I used to flash my xperia to be like a stock HTC phone, so yer the stock rom should keep me happy for a few weeks...
Yer I was a bit skeptical about having only an onscreen keyboard, one of the things I loved about the xperia was the HW keyboard
Cant wait till it arrives, it looks like an amazing phone

As far as has been put out by Microsoft we won't see any WP7 phones till holiday time, i.e end of year. That's a mighty long time to wait.

I had asked HTC on twitter when the new win7 phones will be coming out since I was interested in the hd2, they told me that the first phones will be for sale in Q4,
Right now i dont know exactly what to do. But ill give it a chance and hope for an update. So ill be getting the HD2 tonight.
I bought an xperia last year in feb and was really dissapointed when there werent any new official panels, thnx to XDA I pimped my phone a little bit. But now when I recieve my new phone tonight, ill give my old Xperia to my mother who needs a new phone

Unfortunately not in my case and with 32 other people. Thats how many people this guy stung. Through letters from all victims, QLD police investigated, and the guy was tracked down and currently behind bars, this was the update from the police however still no money despite chasing for it.
