ok I have looked and looked and apparently EVERY phone out there has a page pool edit hack EXCEPT the HTC S730 a phone with a known memory issue.
my question is why? why hasn't any one done this?
it seems that HTC does not want to fix the issue and now apparently the modding community has turned their backs on this phone as well, whats up with that?
is there a way of doing this that I have not seen? and don't send me to pauls page because that is for the cricket wing not the HTC S730 which is only called the wings in europe

Hi, anyone noticed that today in all the european HTC's web sites niki (aka touch dual) has disappeared!?!?!?
someone can tell me why?!?
Yup, it's missing, still on the non euro sites though.
Maybe a new software fix will bring new features like wifi or gps and they have to change the page
I probably shouldn't get my hopes up..

yeah, right.................
It is there again...
http://www.htc.com/product/03-products.htm
or
http://www.htc.com/product/03-product_htctouch_dual.htm
actually ... I think that's the American (?) website.
they mean this website (i think?)
http://www.europe.htc.com/en/products/
Anyone figure out what the reason might be?
They can't take it off the market, can they?
Maybe they are taking it off the market in Europe??
someone should send email to htc asking them whats happened
I don't think they'd take it off the market because they just presented the RED Touch Dual in Barcelona .......... wouldn't make much sense, would it?!
Let's wait a few more days. Send them e-mails if you like, to see if they reply
It's back now.
Did anyone figure out why it was gone?
Is it just me or do any of you noticed how vague the descriptions for the camera, sd card and sms fix are? I mean there is nothing specific about what exactly is fixed. As an example:
Update for HTC HD2 SD Card Storage Capacity
This update for HTC HD2 further extends support of the SD Storage Capability. Taking pictures with your 5 Megapixel lens and dual LED flash can only truly be appreciated at the maximum quality, and now with this update, you will be able to appreciate how much more you can store in your 8GB or more SD Card.
What does that mean? More efficient compression of photos, or support for bigger cards eg 32GB? I tested before and after shots and do not see a decrease in files sizes of photos taken so your guess is as good as mine.
Then this:
Update for HTC HD2 – SMS Function Update
This update for HTC HD2 messaging lets you reach out to your friends and family with instant notifications. Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers just that: fast and reliable SMS messaging.
Is it a fix for the stuck sms in outbox? Again it does not state exactly what was fixed. Is it because HTC does not want to admit to bugs? Then why do we need these updates?
I prefer straight-to-the-point logs of what exactly these update does. I would have skipped the sms update if I knew it only fixes the stuck sms as I do not have that problem so why fix something that is not broken.
Maybe I am not brilliant enough to read what's on HTC's mind with these vague updates. Quietly Brilliant indeed.
any complaints/hatred , please direct to HTC .
There are relevent threads in this forum if you need to garner more info

I am SO with you on this. Very annoying!
Release notes? In general, a proper description of a bug fix should not require use of drivel like "keeping in touch has always been very important" - nor is it written by the marketing department.
EDIT: You'll be happy to know HTC just posted a new fix for the calendar view (though the download link is currently broken). Another meaningful description!
Update for HTC HD2 Calendar View
This update for HTC HD2 expands the dynamic nature of the Calendar application. Whether your week starts on Monday or Sunday, allowing you to view appointments occurring tomorrow, next week, or even next month.

I have some theories on what it might fix, but you'll get no clues from the description...
Ahhh... The great "everything is good, even if some things are terrible" methodology of HTC.
I'm starting to think that they take one week to write the actual bug fix, and two weeks to write the description that goes along with it.
Link for calendar view doesnt work for me...when I press download new site opens saying that the page doesnt exist...
Not so sure about how quietly brilliant the "fixes" are.
SMS fix: Removes auto-lock and some email capability
Camera fix: Causes phone to freeze
Perhaps there is something wrong with my phone. I'm using the most up-to-date HTC rom as well.

You got the exact same "Page not found..." error earlier this month when HTC first listed the 1.48 ROM on the downloads page for the HD2. The download was listed a day or two before the actual file was available...
Not on the HTC website any more, and neither is the 1.48 ROM?!

No hatred. Just wanted to see if I am alone in feeling that HTC is being vague with their fixes and I have directed this to HTC so I will feedback to the forum if there are any response from them.
As for getting more info from this forum, I think it would not have been necessary if HTC had made clear what was exactly fixed, because this forum can only provide educated guesses on what HTC did with the updates. Nothing like hearing it from the horses mouth.

It is still there if you follow the link in Post #3. I just downloaded it and it says this is applicable for ALL Roms. I wonder why it was removed from the main site. This is exactly what I mean. The Read Me is so vague I am wondering if I should apply the patch and since it was removed, are ther problems with it... hmmm.
after the SD update my i can now store 9862, before it was 5028
Yeah i've made this point in other threads elsewhere in the forum. The hotfix descriptions are infuriating. HTC should be explicit about what the fix is supposed to actually fix. Otherwise, how is the user-base supposed to assess the effectiveness of the patch? Descriptions for these updates should not be written like sales pitches; we've already bought the device! They should be written in a functional, technical way, detailing precisely what has changed. I actually find this issue far more frustrating than the bugs themselves. It's patronising to customers, and unprofessional.
It seems to have fixed the capitalisation issue. What it has not done is addressed the facts that (1) it won't let you start typing until it's loaded all the messages between you and that person which takes ages if you have more than about 20 messages between you, and (2) that it randomly goes over to number mode completely unprompted and the only way to type letters is to go landscape full QWERTY.
They could do with sorting this out.
Hi I sold my telstra touch hd and briefly went to google for a month and had the droid. It was a fair phone and had a great UI and i liked certain things such as google navigation the handcent sms, google voice. However certain deal breakers started to arise, I could not surf the internet and talk on the phone at the same time, there was no sirius radio application, the soft keyboard was terrible, the mms still needed work, i missed copy and paste, i didnt like all the "green" that was everywhere, no decent attractive music player. Anyhow I went promptly back to ATT and ordered the hd2 telstra. I know how to hard spl my phone put in roms etc, my questions are:
1. what is the most commonly used navigation software for winmo or what is the best to use with the hd2? I have been searching but can't seem to pick one, is there a cab around here? is it already bundled with hd2?
2. what roms are being offered that do no include htc messaging? I seem to have only found one. Does anyone know which chefs there are that offer this? i went on htc pedia and it seems like miri and dutty dont offer this removal yet for hd2.
3. is there a voice to text cab available much like google 2.1's voice to text?
4. i want to install facebook panel onto the hd2 and i think i found a thread that tells you how, or does anyone have a tutorial?
5. google just released a web app for iphone for their google voice, has anyone tried this web app on their hd2? or what is the best gv dialer to use at the moment?
6. is pandora now available for hd2?
i think thats it your help is most appreciated, please dont attack me if these are similar questions asked before, i did go over the forum and searched thank yu
is there anyone that can help

You can just remove it yourself. That's what I did.

I don't know if the "Oz" version comes with it but in the UK it comes with a trial version of Co-Pilot as part of the rom although its not that hard to add other apps instead of this...at the moment Igo,Tomtom,GarminXT and Navigon seem to be the most popular add ons (tried them all myself and TT's winning for me so far as I'm pretty familiar with it although I do like the "live" services you get with Garmin )

search for HSPL using this site's search feature, run it on your phone, then find the TMOUS radio thread in the T-Mobile US HD2 Leo subforum and change the radio yourself. Don't waste your $ having someone else do it
Read everything twice before you do anything to your phone, else you end up with an exspensive brick
Also turn your phone off (all the way off) then back on
Write down all the info that appears in red down at the bottom of the screen before Windows loads, and put all that info in your signature on this site.
You can change your sig in the User Control Panel, which can be accessed via a button at the top of this page (User CP)
This will help the more experienced members of this site to more easily and accurately help you with any problems/questions that you may have.
