Moderator please delete - HD2 General

I would like to get your opinon how good or bad the HD2 speaker
(the one also used for hands free calls) is compared to a HD
and compared to a Nokia phone.
My personal opinion is, it sounds pretty cheap.
HD sounds better
Nokia sounds much better.

You're asking us to compare the HD2 speaker quality to the HD or a Nokia phone, but you give us the poll options of:
HD speaker quality
bad
medicore
good
brilliant
You need to edit the poll so that it makes sense. That poll is asking me what I think of the HD speaker, not the HD2, and not a comparison.
Incidentally, I think it's a pointless poll. It would make more sense if it was just "what do you think of the HD2 speaker quality", and not mention any other phone. Just my opinion though.

Well i submited the poll like this by accident, but how can I change it?
Or delete it?

I don't believe the sound quality is any better than the diamond to be honest

I had the same problem in mind when buying blackstone, only I was using Nokia 5610 !!!
the speaker is pretty good!! -- you can tweak your blackstone using HDTweak to make the speaker louder!!! the sound quality is also pretty good, for me(Im a melomaniac ) the only problem which bugs me is- the speaker is on the back(when watching movies its pretty hard to hear something unles you "curve" the sound by putting your hand in the way of speaker!!!!

So, the sounds its the same on diamond? cause its really bad sound on diamond... The HD I think is good cause i see on top of the phone the connector for any headphone. So if really bad sound, i prefer stay with my diamond....
Somebody can help us? with test or things like this?
The sound from the phohe-speaker is really really bad.
Its the main thing bothering my right now, I would love to use some rintones with metalbands but the phone just makes noise, even if its its only clear guitartones it sounds like ****.
Only music that sounds fairly good is trance and stuff, without too much base.
The sound from the 3.5 connetctor is awesome though, especially when using Coreplayer.

In my opinion it's worse then Charmer, Kaiser, Diamond.
Sometimes I can barely hear the person on the other side.
The speakerphone mode is brilliant though...

As title says ... if you have any questions ... I can post photos, test stuff etc ...

Language
Hi,
Can you set the language to "Danish" ?
How is the feel/ build quality ?
How is it in the menus - fast/acceptable/slow
Thanks!
Lucky bastard
Sound Quality
How is the sound quality for music over headphones?
Does it have the dolby SRS enhancements?
Thanks in advance!

The only thing I really want to ask is battery life, but you won't be able to give me a detailed answer on that before I get my own

As for the hinge - in the HTC shop there was a Desire Z to show for customers and when I was playing with the hinge I was little bit afraid ... it was just too free. Fortunatly when I unboxed by device the hinge was pretty good. The build quality looks very good for me. However I am afraid that hinges will get overused by time and i will have to take it for warranty repair. This is just my opinion and may not happend. Summary: first expresions was afraidness but after now I am satisfied with it.
I come from TP2 where the keyboard is definitly better. On Desire Z its little bit smaller and there are function keys on the sides - I mean on TP2 I had 'p' and 'q' at the side of the keyboard ... here is 'tab' and 'backspace' on the side... but this is just matter of habit.
As for the hinge - when you turn the device upside down - it opens by gravity. This was afaik already discussed about G2. It is not issue i guess ... and actually i dont find it annoying at all.
As you could probably see on youtube videos the frame of the phone is metal and the back cover of batery is metal. The rest is plastic - very same as on the classic desire.

I am from czech republic and I cannot change language to Danish. This will be probably country specific. I have there: czech, english, magyar, polski, romania, slovak and some azbuka written language which i dont have any clue what is

Actually they are super fast... I have installed only like 10 apps so menu is not full of apps but the device is incredibly responsible. This is probably due to new generation of procesor used in the opposite of the old on in Desire (even Z is 800mhz and classic Desire is 1ghz). What supprised me was that I held today even HTC Desire HD and i had feeling that Z is smoother... but who know what was with that HD

Cant say yet :-/ I have it first day ... now i am recharging it to the full battery. I use my phone heavily and TP2 lasted one day with problems. When I didnt have time to play with phone (twitter, web browsing etc) and i was only calling it lasted 2 days. I will report my experience with Z asap.

I dont know anything about dolby SRS ... if you could tell me how to try it I would.
I've just plugged in my KOSS Porta Pro and the quallity sounds well... Or lets say its not catastrophic Depends how much audiofil are you I still think that it depends more on headphones you listen. Atm I am playing pink floyd high hopes and I hear there all details i know so I guess the quality of playback is ok. In the comparison with qualite repro I feel here how my porta are overbassed. I will investigate equalizer in new days
ad hinges - those are not my videos but another owner:

Check the NAM version thread:
Bell has released the NAM version D-Z today too
I wanted to ask you about the hinge, again: if you don't slide out the keyboard (so the keyboard is "closed") and you turn the phone upside-down, will the keyboard still open by itself? In the videos posted above I can see what is happening when the keyboard is already open, but I wonder if it happens the same when the keyboard is "closed".
I fear the keyboard would open by itself in my pocket and I could break it, if I wear some loose clothes. Also, flipping the phone to mute the ringtone seems silly if the keyboard is opening like that.
I wouldnt be afraid to have it in my pocket. Yes it opens itself but only by some little force - for example gravity. Actually to let it open by the gravity you have to hold it by the bottom side of the phone and not holding the second one. Since they are rather thin its not so easy. I am used to hold my phone by way it doesnt close when i type.

Thanks for the answer! Maybe it looks worse than it is. I hope to find it in the stores in one or two weeks, and I'll try it myself.
If you find more interesting stuff about it (good or bad), please post. When you have some time, maybe you could upload some pictures and video from the camera.

I just got a Bell one and the hinge is a little slippery but (as mentioned) it only slides on mine if I hold it upside-down by the base, or at a bizzare side-ways angle that's un-natural.
Be prepared for the slide though, as you will have it if you get the phone. Great phone though.
the desire z has LED Notification??
i think the desire may have led notification unlike the t-mobile g2... if you watch the video you can see the red blinking LED due to low battery. can anyone else confirm this?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ0iH_hHchg
Don't know about notifications, but my g2 has the same led notification when it is done charging or charging. My g2 has never had less than half the battery remaining, so no clue on that. I hope the g2 lits up that led when a missed call/text pops up, that would be a sweet upgrade.
yes, there is LED diod undead the speaker grid. It is blinking not only when battery is low but also when you recharge (red for recharging/green for fully recharged) or when you have missed call. It doesnt blink for email i think ... i will notice today hopefuly.
Is the emmc/ nand locked down like in tmo g2?
Ie no perma-root/ custom roms?
I have a tmo g2 which I could gladly sell/ trade for the desire z provided the dz could be perma rooted...

[Q] Equilizer app

i am just moving from htc hd7 to samsung focus i was pretty happy from it until i listened to the music. i mean there is a day and night difference between the hd7 sound and the focus just because hd7 has sound enhancer, any one know a similar app or any other equalizer app avaible in the market for the non htc phones ???? i really need it because without it samsung focus sound sucks but i dont wanna leave the super amoled just because of poor sound quality
I have the same problem here. I've asked same question here and I've got no solution
I've used a tool (in pc) called 'mp3 gain' to equalize all songs before send to Focus. This is not a solution, but could help.

thanks though i will try the same thing its not a bad idea though but will take a lot of time though anyways we should just keep an eye on the apps and i think sooner or later someone will come up with some nice equalizer app

[Q] NEW/Alternate Loudspeaker (upgrade)

Hey guys,
So pretty much all of us here know how awful the loudspeaker is on our myTouch 4g...
We also know that there are software mods to 'help' with the overall quality of the sound via equalizers... DSP Manager?
But..I personally don't find it helps all that much..let's face it, it still sounds pretty crappy =P
So..I was thinking...
Is there an alternative, OEM, speaker that we can use to replace the one in our phone???
Perhaps, we could find a speaker for a different device that has good quality, and install it in ours. I get there would probably be compatibility issues....
But surely there must be at least one other device whose speaker works well AND is compatible with our phone
If you have any info on the specifics or compatible devices/components...
Open to all positive suggestions. Would love to hear everyone's take on this matter.
THANKS

Anyone got any comparison screenshots between stock camera and Jishnu's Camera MOD?

I'd like to see everyone's sample shots that installed Jishnu's Camera MOD. Thanks!
I had them. But deleted already. I am not a fan of super proffesional photos, but i was able to see the difference.
Just try it yourselg. Image size is bigger anyway when you use his MOD. This is already a good reason to change camera apk and libs.
And this is not a Q&A tread. Please post your questions in right thread.
I see a lot of talk about bigger, but I'm thinking bigger ≠ better, or else LG's engineers would have set compression differently. Something in the tune of 2% subjective improvement with a 80% increase of file size isn't worth it either.
I'd also like to see some comparison shots, the thread is just too messy to get anything meaningful out of it in terms of quality experience, it's just "does it work / please test this / omg my phone is bricked".

Why not?Its not like the photos are 100mb each.Anything that will improove the quality of the photos,even the slightest,is welcome.Aside of that,the files arent that big either,maybe some kbs more and very rare to go further than 1mb...

I tried The EXTV3 version and returned back to the stock camera. Too noise in photos on my opinion. Many people like the mod so i think i will try again the updated version and post shots soon.
Thanks for sharing. I think many people are on the edge of trying it out but are not sure whether it objectively improves camera quality. I would be beneficial for OP as well since he will gain more downloads and potentially gain more donations. It's a win-win.
Camera MOD users, if you want to help out, you can spread the word by posting comparison shots.
Hey brother listen! Just use the stock cam and then flash this! You will see the difference.. and why are you concerned about donations? Did i beg you for that? This kinda man pisses everyone off frankly speaking..
It doesnt matter whether you get a good pic or not.. why dont you understand, this thread is not a part of my universe.. I dont have to deal with 14Fps video, you have to.. got it?
