TV-Out possible? - Touch HD General

I wish it was not a fault because at this site i recognized that the HTC Touch HD has TV-Out. http://www.mobiletopsoft.com/devices/spec-htc-touch-hd.html. I´ve seen the TV Out function of the Touch pro and it was very exciting.

To my knowledge this piece of art will have video out...

And then why it is not specified in the HTC site?
http://www.htc.com/www/product/touchhd/specification.html

Yeb I believe it will has a TV-out function...

The HTC ExtUSB™ (11-pin mini-USB 2.0) connector also functions as headset and Video out.....
Its the same multi connector as on the Pro...

Which does NOT have a TV-Out.
A lot of sites think it has, but the one and only official htc.com site says nothing about it.
Besides that, if you take a good look at some of the videos, you'll see that there is NO TV-Out Program in the Programs window. So unless someone proves me wrong, the HD is not gonna have TV-Out.

Shame really

What, is this country specific? I have been assured that there will be a TV out function on this device. Apparently the only catch is the cable won't be supplied in the box and will have to be bought seperatly.

who assured you? HTC?

One of my friends reviews theses devices and he has been able to have a play with a pre-release. So No the assurance wasn't from HTC.
I agree though, its one of those things we just won't know for sure until its in our hands!! Although surely its only a software issue and with the HTC pro having TV out it seems natural that the HD will have it as well?

No it won´t. Why should HTC let the TV Out Function away? The competitor, the IPhone 3G, has a TV Out Function. So if it is only a Software-issue to let the TV Out come true, HTC would have solved this problem. Its a Hardware Issue! Can anyone look what Grafix-chipsets are included in the Diamond and Pro to compare both devices?

i mentioned months ago for someone to crack open the devices and find exactly whats different inside, that way you can see if its hardware. Of course they might have intigrated it in to the main CPU but i doubt that, because if they had done then they may as well have sold the Diamond listed as having TV out, since it would cost no more and be another big plus point.
My guess is that the Pro will have a seperate chip to decode and output to compersite.

Not surprised
Hi guys!
I've read alot of reviews before buying HD and I was sure that it doesnt have this particular feature.Touch Pro has it and Hd dont its not that HTC forgot to put it there but its simple marketing strategy. HD has its own set of features which pro doesnt and vice versa. Hope my theory is right.
Cheers

Maybe someone can work around a flash interface for that, without any hardware 3D as requirement.
Anyway I do agree: it's a great-looking effect for sure.
Cool!
If someone can try and extract it from one of those ROMS, we can test it!!
That looks awesome!
Cheers!
If the HTC Diamon where actually released into the wild!
Come on people it's still not out, stop requesting Roms/Apps until the official release date.
People have extracted the Opera browser already, and there are devices out and about. If someone knows where a ROM dump is...
I think our best bet right now if for someone to create the apps independently. What's on the diamond is the TouchFLO #D app which is all inclusive of messaging, contacts, media, and more.
Just like developers here were able to port the look and feel of the iPhone's coverflow mediaplayer with S2P and also S2U2. It takes time to develop, but in time we will get them.

HTC Touch HD w/ QWERTY

Does anyone have an idea or thinks HTC will launch HTC Touch HD with QWERTY and call it HTC Touch HD Pro?
Anyway, that would be my perfect phone. I was about to buy HTC Touch Pro but when HTC Touch HD came out, I kinda relaxed thinking HTC Touch HD might be the right product for me. All I can think of now is, will those fellas in Taiwan come up with the Pro version for HTC Touch HD?
Any suggestions?

I had the same thoughts, then I realised that we did not have qwerty with the original Pocket Pc's. Therefore why not use a fold up (stoway) keyboard. Carry with you only when needed and it is better sized keyboard as well. Then when not required you only carry a thin phone with you the HD!
Calli
I was going to post the exact same thoughts. I too wanted to pick up the HTC Touch Pro. But after seeing the HTC Touch HD, I convinced myself I would be willing to wait up to a year, for something with that screen and a QWERTY slider. I hope HTC has this in their recent plans.
The thing is as the screen is quite large, the keys on the virtual keyboard may be quite wider and therefore make your typing more accurate. Also there are third party software keyboards that are full screen such as spb full screen keyboard. Google "spb full screen keyboard screenshots" and go to the first result.
BTW, does anyone know how I can get rid of the vodafone logo at the top right corner of this post? I am not on vodafone anymore. Cant figure where in my profile settings I can remove it.
The truth of the matter is, when it comes to engaging in multiple sms texting communications, it's hard to beat an actual, physical keyboard. It seems HTC would agree by their decision to produce the HTC Touch Diamond and HTC Touch Pro (I know there are other hardware specs also).
What would be the harm to allow consumers to have the option? I don't consider a portable folding keyboard as an option, to engage in texting and emailing discussions. That would be too cumbersome for quick messaging.
Come on HTC..........bring this to reality.......bring this to the states for ATT 3G. Hopefully this could be a true Hapy Thanksgiving in 2009. I'm prepared to wait it out a year for this one.

This is almost impossible. A friend used to have something like that for one of his old HTC PPC without the physical QWERTY - I think it was cruise or p3600. He gave it away for a kaiser so nothing beats the physical.
Imagine dropping ur fold-up keyboard home thinking, ok no heavy texting today. Suddenly, during the day you find yourself out of the office and had to send loads of emails and txt colleagues. Damn you will bite those fingers
Was thinking Athena earlier before Touch Pro. My brother got that and I wasnt all that impressive with what I saw. I wanna belive HTC Touch HD Pro will come out Q1 2009
HTC Touch HD Pro is what I am waiting for if it would finally see the daylight.

So someone add more networks to Finland. We do not have Telia anymore here
I just want a bigger screen then my Tilt with VGA and 3G here in the USA
the keyboard to me is no big deal
Looks like I will do the upgrade to the Fuze from my Tilt on my wifes upgrade then maybe if the HD comes to the USA in 2009 I can do the upgrade on my account
I hope
If they could also add
-Flash
-VGA video recording at 30 fps
-DVB-H (we got nation wide coverage of DVB-H overhere in the Netherlands)
and maybe even :
-Opticall zooming
Then it would come close to the perfect phone untill Nvidia tegra processors arive.

A number of previous versions have said Qtv support, but the 'support' is akin to holding up the world with a drinking straw.. not very effective.
..and beware: if you buy it now it will still be v1.2.5!
...However it was a due act anyway...
...part II: indeed - on the website they advertise for 1.3.0, but if you proceed and download....surprise ...
Damn you guys are fast ;-)
We are working on publishing the 1.3 release now.... but yeah you got headsup reading the changelog page on CP.com ;-) We are changing the text on the resellers now and are getting ready to push publish it with them... it will show up on Mobihand first and current users will be notified by email when its published.

OK.... looks like Mobihand is updated now... here I come CorePlayer!

How about the Leo's compass and graphic performence ?

In the HTC official Leo Spec, it has digital compass. Does Leo's compass work as the same as Iphone 3GS(not using gps)?
I am using touch hd, and I enjoy NeoS2007 Pack3. Is the HTC Leo's graphic driver best enough for the graphic performence?
yes and about the graphic performence: it's definetely better than on the HD.

Depends on what you mean by "full drivers". It's already a known fact that the HD2 has hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES 1.1. What's not known is whether it has video decode acceleration or not - but from what I've seen I'd say not. Apparently the Toshiba TG01 does, though. Although TBH, it might not matter all that much considering how fast Snapdragon is anyway.
maybe the official Leo Roms can show the details
In Htcpedia, the official multiple languages can be downloaded from the link:
http://htcpedia.com/news/official-htc-hd2-wm6_5-rom.html
Maybe some experts can tell us the details in the ROMs, and show his/her evaluation.

Yeah, but to fork out a huge amount of money, I'd rather that the full hardware capabilities are being made use of. I don't want the HD2 to be like my HD. A device with huge potential but locked.

Documents & Reader Tab Unlikely from Official HTC ROM

I have just received a message back from HTC after I asked if there were going to be Reader & Document tabs in any upcoming ROM upgrades.
Here is the response;
Dear Richard Thank you for your enquiry about ROM features. At the moment we are working together with Microsoft to bring new features in place in the next upgrades and upcoming products but we cannot include the current options included in some mobile networks as this is part of their exclusiveness and brand agreements.

Because of the 'With HTC Sense'? Yeah that would be failure. Maybe just wright the word 'NOT' with a pen. 'With HTC Sense. NOT' xD
Anyway, from what I am reading it is clear that they are thinking about what to do with the HD2 regarding WinMo7. I think HTC will make some kind of new 'Sense' interface for WM7. MicroSoft just wants to sell the first Windows Phone 7 Series without to much 'Sense/TouchWiz' etc. To give the HTC HD2 owners a custom WM7 version with some kind of Sense on top would not effect them that much I think. And, again, we HD2 owners would be a good 'test' for them to see how Sense + WM7 works out.
Or else, during a meeting somebody goes 'you know what, let's just stop thinking about it. We are giving them 6.5.3. That's enough. The e-mail guys will get payed double this month to reply to all the hate messages'.

For example finally fw version without annoying bugs I hope.
But anyway I really feel like something is cooking because for our region there is still no 1.66 version almost month after released everywhere else.
1.Maybe because it makes no sense for them to port the bugfixes for our region when some bigger upgrade is coming (like 6.5.x?) or …
2. they are just do not care about our stupid problems to use their devices.
I hope it is No.1

Or not considering MS requires the OSs' home screen to be intact bar any OEM customization. Basically that means the screen as we've seen it will stay as is but HTC will likely add custom 'live tile's such as weather or stocks and change the 'default' colors.
