On the website it is no longer there. So what i want to know is are they completely done with the phone? Cuz when I had a KRZR and broke it, my protection plan allowed me a new one, but they discontinued it and gave me a new Razor. So i was hoping i can "break" my current touch and maybe get a diamond cuz they aren't selling vogues anymore. Anyone know?
Considering the differences in the Razr and Krzr, compared to the Touch and Diamond, they could also give you something else, like a Mogul.
Ooooooooops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, havent tried yet. i am afraid to break my phone. lmao.
ok, called up and they said they will replace with another touch. however when i called an indivdual store, they said they no longer sell the touch. so i am gonna go to that store one of these days and see what they say.
If you need one... I can sell you mine.
it has the official sprint WM6.1 REV A rom on it.
its used for a month. literally and comes with extra battery and I have a collection of over half a gig of software (thanks to xda-developers and all the folks involved with the software development) that I'll include.
Im located in MD.
thanks

I think we all 'get it,' but the chances are that you will NOT receive a diamond in exchange for your touch. As was pointed out, the insurance companies most likely have thousands of refurbished vogues and you would most likely get one of these and not a diamond.

ok, i have understood that since i made that post a week ago. why are people continuing with the post?
even if they dont sell the phone, they still have reconditioned ones in a depot, i have seen people come in with CDM 120's and they send the same model, esp on the phone like the touch, they send all the old phones back and refurb it most of the time its just and LCD or reflashing the phone
so as long as its economical for them to refurbish the phone they will

I was wondering since these phones are like ancient and I have the insurance thing for it too... if there's a hardware issue or it just happens to brake/get stolen... would they send me another wing?
No. Plain and simple no. They have TONS of them still in stock believe me.
Lol awwwwww really?? Nooo!! Haha alright thanks man .
If you "break" your wing....

NO, actually they don't have any Wings. With insurance it's still $140.00. Cracked my screen and just got off the phone with them.
I'll be repairing mine, $20-40 for LCD/Digitizer. $2.00 for tools.
Shop around, seen prices as high as $120.00. They have to be kidding.
I'd have to agree, that no would be the answer.. if this was the case, I'd break my Wing right now, lol.
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

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

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.

What do you find to be the downside of the HD2
I'm not sure what the band situation is as mine is a UK model. I can send you pics if you wish though. I've not even opened the headphones or touched the packaging since I got it and I've had it in a case with a screen protector since day one.
I come from Android and iPhone and found the SMS app and its alternatives to be inferior. I send up to 4200 texts a day and have to constantly delete threads to prevent the app slowing down.
I also use Twitter and IM a lot and Android presents a great deal more options.
I do love my HD2. I even carry a spare battery as I use it so often, but I get fed up of the bugs.
Maybe I'll regret it when I get rid as my handset is one of the few not to have a screen sensitivity bug: it works perfectly with no ghost typing or weird flitting between letters; my other three suffered annoyingly from this hardware problem.

I might be wrong..
but maybe he/she dropped it a few times which would have agitated the screen. Then maybe with the heat that builds up when charging, might have cracked the screen. Just a wierd theory. Let us know how it goes with htc.

I've been on this forum for about 3 weeks to a month now and i've seen your problem at least 2 other times now. Honesty pays off in this situation. They will ask for your IMEI number (i believe thats whats its called) and they will know that your not the originaly buyer of the phone.

They will fix it but it will cost money. I highly doubt they will do it for free because your not the original buyer. You won't know until you call and remember to be honest.
There are many reports of this happening, So don't feel too bad. However I've read that the warranty only applies to the original owner, and view may ask for proof of purchase. Sorry dude.

Hello everyone, my phone got ran over last night. Its actually still working fine, touchscreen and all but there are cracks in the lower screen. You cant actually feel them but if you tilt the phone or whatever you can. Last night it was like bleeding pink colors but now the entire phone is covered in like a pink and blue haze. I can't see much of anything but the touch screen still works. I know the bottom screen needs to be replaced. Does anyone know how about much this would cost to be repaired? Should I go to a local repair shop? Also what needs to be fixed exactly so I don't get hustled?
Your LCDs are bleeding (causing the "haze"), your digitizer is fine if the touchscreen is working, you need a new screen.
Here is an example of what you need replaced:
http://www.repairsuniverse.com/google-nexus-one-lcd-screen-replacement-display-amoled.html
You can do it yourself, but I would only attempt it if you're really good with that kind of stuff. But if you do want to do it yourself, here are some cheaper screens from eBay. And this guy on youtube has a good set of videos on how to replace the screen (45 videos). But again, this is going to take time and skill.
It says in the videos that he's replacing his digitizer. Should I just follow the same steps? Do you think its that difficult to do it by one's self? I'm pretty tech-savvy but I don't have any experience in cell phone repair. But I am a college student and saving a large amount of money on labor costs would be awesome
Doesnt nexus have amoled screen not lcd. Who stupid is thinking that every device haves crappy lcd like iphone.

Uh, I dont know the specifics. You might need to replace the entire digitizer (maybe it's all one part, and you cant just replace the screen). For sending it into HTC, someone on android forums said that:
I cracked my LCD last month, sent it in to HTC, cost $115 total including overnight shipping which HTC covers, was only phoneless for 4 days.

I appreciate the help. I just contacted a local repair shop and they said it would be $124. So I'm figuring it's worth it to pay the thirty dollars for the labor rather than screwing it up. Thanks though for pointing me in the right way
Yea, thats good. Personally, I wouldn't try to mess with all that internal stuff, too complicated for me and too many places I could screw up lol. No problem.
