Hello,
Why I can't find HD2 at http://shop.o2.co.uk/mobile_phones/Pay_Monthly or anywhere else on the site?
because O2 are absolutely useless at updating their website with new phones unless it's a new iphone or palm pre. At the moment you'll only find info on it if you go into store or ring up
I`ve been in 3 o2 stores and the HD2 isn`t even on display.....They`ve sold there soul to Apple!!!!!
HD2 is only being displayed in some of the bigger O2 stores, if you went to a smaller store then i don't think they would have it on display but may have it in stock.
If you want a HD2 you've got more chance calling to 202 number even their flagship stores have sold out.
They are basically only letting existing customers get it via upgrades currently. I guess because they are struggling to meet demand even from there upgrades customers.
Call 202 2 2 2 should get you to retentions and ask them for it, if you are an existing customer that is.

is it still available now? i heard that they're all out of stock..
I'm unsure. You have to order online or call.
out of stock online and stores. hv to wait for one week.
OMG then its finished for me..
my last chance is monday..
cause my cousin will be leaving at tuesday..
do tou guys think it is still possible?
my cousin is in seattle, and i havent heard from him since yesterday..
gosh i am so curious
I've been dying to get it, but it is out of stock..
I went today to T-mobile store in Pleat Hill (SF Bay Area), and it's still out of stock.
the rep said maybe by Monday, but he's not sure
thanks for the info duke911
my cousin is in seattle right now, but tomorrow he will leave and go to portland, and going back to seattle at monday.. maybe i'll try to contact him later, just hope that there will be new stock in monday..
also, i have a simple question.. i have to unlock the phone cause i will use it in asia, and i am wondering how is the unlock process? is it gonna tke a longtime? can i ask the retail store to unlock it for me without have to call and send a fax?
It sounds like u need the European/Asian version. It is much easier to get on Ebay and such.
yeah i think so, but my cousin just moved to USA, and he never had any experiences with ebay or anything like that.
so as far as i know, the only way is to ask him to go to the retail store and try to find one (or is there any other store that sell the phone without contract at the same price?)
i tried to ask, and finally had come to a conclusion that they will restock on monday, so i hope that i can still make it, cause that is my last hope..
thanks in advance
Some Radio Shacks carry them and still have a few in stock, so tell him to call around.
hi amb9800
thanks a lot for the info, it is very useful
the problem is i dont know if the radio shacks sells them without contract or not, cause i want to buy the non contract one, and ask them to unlock it
thx for the info anyway..

The reason why is the TMo US version will not give you 3G network in Asia or Europe. They make a version that does and it is highly available in Europe and Asia. The great thing is it works in both places so you should be covered. Truth is it would be a better phone for you from the information you've given us.
yeah i know that..
but anyway, i still prefer the Tmo US version, it comes with a bigger ROM size than the asian & european version, and it also comes with 16GB micro sd.. the Asian only comes with 8GB micro sd..
well, just called my cousin and turn out that he lives in Lynnwood seattle, and the nearest mall is alderwood mall, that has Tmobile retail shop there.. hope they have a new stock in monday..
Ebay?
Why don't you try ebay? You'll pay a little more of course, but at least HD2s are available for purchase.
as i already mentioned above, my cousin is just moved to US for 3 weeks, he doesn't know how to purchase something online (yet). so the only clue that i can give to him is to visit Tmo retail store. is there any news regarding the new stock?
Walmart
All Walmart stores sell the phone without contract for 500.00 outright plus sales tax if applicable.
thx polera257 for the info, but unfortunately my cousin is completely blind about the road maps and the only place that he can go to is the alderwood mall, lynnwood..
he is on his way to the mall to see if there's any HD2 spotted yet..
wish me luck guys.. i am so dying to have it..
I called T-mobile store today, and they said they did not receive any HD2s today
the lady said they received a bunch of different phones, but no HD2
she said that I should be notified when the device arrives since I'm on the waiting list
Man! I kinda feel like someone waiting for a heart transplant , this really sucks!
@ duke911
wow it really hurt me
until now, i cannot contact my cousin, we wouldn't reply my bbms.. so i don't know whether he got the phone (hopefully) or not..
THinking of getting the DHD on my network Orange when i'm due for an upgrade in October and i was wondering if it will actually be available? Does anyone know what the flagship network will be?
Please don't say o2 lol, i hate those buggers.
As far as I know, Vodafone is going to be the "flagship". HTC seemed to be bigging them up a lot at the launch event.
Orange and T-Mobile are getting the phone too, but they didn't get a mention.
O2 so far aren't even getting the phone at all!
3rd party online stores are offering the HD on T-Mobile, Orange, O2 and Vodafone...always best to get from a 3rd party as to not get a crap branded handset!!

Yep, that's what I did with my TP2 and is what I'm doing with my HD
I have it ordered from a 3rd party on Vodafone. I wonder because it will be the first shipment will it have all the Vodafone crap on it or touch wood it will be sim free ??
Depends where you get it from and whether you're first shipment or not.
When I ordered my TP2 from mobilephonesdirect I was first shipment and Voda didn't even have theirs yet - so I got an unbranded one.
I don't know if somewhere down the line Voda got their stock and MPD started selling from Voda stock rather than sim-free stock...
I expect at this stage all stock that doesn't come direct from an operator will be unbranded and sim-free.
I ordered it from here immediately once they started taking orders so i should be in the first shipment - http://www.mobiles.co.uk/htc-desire-hd.html
Here's hoping its sim free then m8
I've just sent Orange an email asking about a release date. I'll post back when I hear something.
I never use a 3rd Party. Insurance is 6.00 a month on Orange. They replace the phone the next day usually no questions asked.
If you buy 3rd party you cannot insure your phone direct. You end up paying about 10.00 a month then if you want to claim they try everything to get out of helping you.
In my experience always buy direct. I know the branding is a pain. Custom Roms get rid of the bloatware. A small badge you can put up with.
If you buy a 3rd party phone the main operator will always tell you to contact who you bought your phone from if there's a fault.
That's where you will start having problems.

I phoned Vodafone about my TP2 when I got it asking if I can have insurance put on through Vodafone rather than via the reseller and they said "Yep no problem" and put it on for me! Not had to use it, but just saying...
That's good maybe it's just Orange. I got a phone from Phones 4 you years ago and Orange wouldn't touch me on insurance. I just like to deal direct because I get really good loyalty discounts.

I know what you mean. When I upgraded from my K800i to my TyTNII Orange were really really great at giving me a good deal.
I actually used to work for Orange about 4 years ago, and I still have a warm place in my heart.
I'm defecting to T-Mobile this time so I can take advantage of Everything Everywhere, makes me feel like I'm getting closer to Orange again.
Orange Care was by and large one of the best aspects of their service. I used it on my old SPV M2000 which I crushed on the day I got it by tripping over a rope fence. Problem I had was that they had none to replace it with so I got stuck with an SEP910i - which was no replacement for the M2000. There was a big scandal about it and the media got involved and in the end I got a brand new M2000.
I would have stuck with Orange for my TP2, but it was going to take a couple of months for it to be available on Orange whereas I could get it on Vodafone instantly, and I was so fed up with my TyTN II that I begrudgingly jumped ship. Not that Vodafone have caused me any problems. Orange just had a bit more of a personal touch. Vodafone is very corporate and don't seem as 'fun' as Orange are.
My work Treo Pro is on Vodafone anyway, so it's no loss
Wow, I ended up talking a lot there.
Orange are not ideal as they tend to mess with the handset too much for my liking. I did mention this in another thread but orange don't seem to have any information on DHD, one of the sell reps even suggested they might not even get it at all!!
mobilphonesdirect.com are quite good they have confirmed handset will be sim free and are offering the cheapest deals. Ordered mine today expected to get it on he 7th October, wait and see.
I'm pretty sure orange will get it since they're merged with T-Mobile. I read that they'll be rebranding around 2012 too. I can't imagine orange not getting it, it would be a mistake on their part in my opinion.
I'm finally thinking of getting a smart phone to replace my X51v and Sony-Ericsson flip phone combo.
I'm currently on T-Mobile in the Atlanta area, and am thinking about a HD2.
It's a WinMO 6.5 phone, so all the apps that I'm used to, including my I-Go GPS, will run on it. I'm very familiar with WM6.5 since it has been running on my X51v since Lenny came out with a cooked ROM.
However, TMOUS is not selling this phone anymore. So, it looks like I have to go the eBay route. And, there are 2 possibilities - the T-Mobile version and the international (Leo) version.
1) Can anyone offer good reasons to go with one version or the other. Just wondering if the Leo will work with TMOUS 4G,or do I need the TMo version of the phone for this.
2) I also have a plan that they don't offer anymore -"T-Zone Talk & Text Nationwide" that I got when the SE T68i came out in 2002. It works with tethering and with pretty much unlimited browsing on my phone, will it work with the HD2? Or, will I need to change plans.
Thanks for any insight.

both will come with a good warranty service
Thanks!
The T-Mobile site says "Out of Stock", which is why I started this thread. I'm thinking they are phasing them out for the HD7.
I'll check out the other site you listed. Also, Walmart and Amazon show them in stock. And, Amazon sells both versions: the T-Mobile and the International.

I was in our local Tmobile yesterday and they had one on display still but you are probably right. There is no reason for them to keep them around if they want to sell HD7's. they were listed as 99 bucks with a two year contract.
In order to get 4G on T-Mobile US you MUST have the TMO US version of the HD2, international versions will not get 3G or 4G, only EDGE speeds.

I just got 2 new HD2s at the T-Mobile store off of Dallas Highway (120) and Barrett a week ago.
They told me that they are phasing out the HD2 and replacing it with the HD7. They still may have some in stock in the store...I don't know.
I went to the store because after I placed the online order they told me they were on backorder....I went to the store and got my phones, but it looks like they are still shipping out the ones from the online order as well....So I will have a few extra. I was going to send them back, but I'll sell you one for whatever it costs me to keep it. I can meet in the Douglasville or Dallas area. e-mail me at [email protected] if you're interested. I get e-mails right away.

I got mine for free over the black friday weekend ^_^. Online deal only but the guy in the store matched the online deal for me.
Try Walmart
I got mine a few months ago from Walmart.com and saved a lot. You might find it even cheaper now in the store IF they still have any. Try that before you go the eBay route. You want a new, clean phone if you can get it. Unlike a lot of others, my HD2 has worked fine from Day 1. Like you, I wanted to replace my old Dell X51v and old Nokia phone. I have a lot of apps that I couldn't find good replacements for in Android or iOS, so I wanted to stay with WM6x for a while longer. I have not found any of my old apps that do not work, although some are clearly meant for stylus use and a little hard to use with fingers.
I will suggest this: if it works, don't make any changes other than loading your applications. Mine is still the same OS version it came with. I just put the default task manager as a quick link on the main screen so I can shut down apps that don't have their own Exit method. In the Start menu folder, I created some sub-folders to organize my app shortcuts. That way I can have all my apps only a couple of taps away (Start/folder/application shortcut). I don't have to do a lot of scrolling to get to the apps I use the most.
I have had no problem with T-Mobile in my area. (However, even though my area is supposed to have the higher speed service, I don't see it in my downloads.)
If you can get an HD2 you will have most likely the last WM6x device. It is the end of the line.
Good luck.
Hi! What happens is this
My family in the USA brought a Samsung Galaxy S7 edge then they send to me (I live in Mexico) and when I try to use with Mexican networks it was locked, I found an unlocked company (DoctorSim.com) but I'm afraid, do you think that if I unlocked my phone, I will can use as normal? Or it will be another issues? It worth 60 dollars, and well, in Mexican economy that's a lot of money!
Please respond, and share your thoughts I want to use my Galaxy (sorry for my bad English)
And in Mexico is legal unlock your cellphone with any method and in Mexico the networks don't block your phone in case of robbery.
I've used unlocker.com and they usually will unlock ur phone , as long as it's not listed as stolen. Also many , many local phone stores that aren't affiliated with a company. Like a place that sell boost and phones like that, a personal phone store business they have the machine to unlock those phones, at much cheaper. Most you should pay is $40, usually 29 bucks is the rate. Hit me back and I can give you some legit spots that will and if they can't they will refund you the money where most won't. About to unlock my Tmobile phone that's not paid off threw one very shortly so I can let you know in coming weeks about that

Really? In México are people with those machines but im a little insecure, maybe you can send me your websites to unlock
cellunlocker.net I'd try first cause there Logitech, and you can actually get them on the phone with the number listed on site. Many of these unlock sites have no ways to talk to anyone. I've never had a problem with them. Theyve unlocked numerous phones I've justried bought. Not sure there price thou. Let me know how you make out
