have contacted Microsoft a while ago... buttons are not a problem... its the fact that the aerial should be within the phone and not extending outside... too bad... i knew this was gonna happen!!

After a month of chewing my nails to bloody stumps.
Finally.
It arrived.
No! Wait! THEY arrived.
Yes, they are back in stock at o2. They were so grateful for my custom them sent me .. two XDA Execs.
W00t.
Well for now.
Courier was laughing his ass off anyway ..
Said, 'happy christmas!'.
Hehe.
Well anyway this one is new. Shiny, smells of new cars. Screen is NOT as blurry and washed out as other one was. So thats a definate indication I didnt get a new one before ..
Anyway now I am going to get it home and strip the nuts off it.
Started by booting into corporate mode.
Now I need to get some nice software to customize the today screen and hack on the ext rom a bit now Buzz has cracked it.
Damn feel good!

Hey all,
My HTC uni was sent to the shop for repairs. So, I bought a backup unit to use when it happens again. Let's just say the two new roomies got along very well...

That's prolly the best use of two universals i've ever seen
nice
humping universals which one is the male?
:shock: dude if you have to ask which one is the male....well that's just sad!
So, it will be like what.. after 9 months, you will have a new Universal-mini for free?
lol :lol:
I feel violated.

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
kk

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

As far as has been put out by Microsoft we won't see any WP7 phones till holiday time, i.e end of year. That's a mighty long time to wait.

I had asked HTC on twitter when the new win7 phones will be coming out since I was interested in the hd2, they told me that the first phones will be for sale in Q4,
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.
I bought an xperia last year in feb and was really dissapointed when there werent any new official panels, thnx to XDA I pimped my phone a little bit. But now when I recieve my new phone tonight, ill give my old Xperia to my mother who needs a new phone

Unfortunately not in my case and with 32 other people. Thats how many people this guy stung. Through letters from all victims, QLD police investigated, and the guy was tracked down and currently behind bars, this was the update from the police however still no money despite chasing for it.

Like 6-7 month you mean ? Sure that a good idea.
Hi all,
i've noticed over the last month or so, that the Uni section has had less new posts and replies,
+ so far this month i've only seen 1 new rom (thingonaspring WM 6.1)
now this could just be me or has anyone else noticed....
It´s normal mate, a lot of Chefs and Devs have migrated to newer devices...
Last one leaved was Tomal, really miss him.
But I know you started to cook, so you can publish your ROM and inject new life into Uni!

D&mn I'm behind :-(
I too noticed it going quieter - I havent used my own Uni for about 11 months since work migrated me to a Blackberry. Though with Android being migrated to Uni I've actually fished it out of attic and charged it up last weekend!
Well not left, but at least changed to newr device section...
Long time no see here
Only one Chef left active from good old times I can see is Thingonaspring

Keep trying!

You bet i am, i've PMed Luca for help.
otherwise i might try Tomal's V2 uni kitchen
You can give it a try too!
Good luck,
like newer devices hold a candle to the universal. good riddddance, WE'LL SURVIVE WITHOUT THEM.
..
hey maybe if theres nobody caring about unis anymore the ebay price will drop and i can buy another 5!
A classic model
I don´t think prices will go down, we have a classic model!

unfortunately you're right, wallabys are still 30$ on ebay. it's sad a wallaby is 30 and you can get a hermes for 60.
2nd hand ebay prices are insane. its almost as bad as used hard drives. 20gb? 50bux! when a new 500gb is only 50$.
well thats just life, totally unfair. unless you wait for the right moment!
My HD2 has finally failed. A quick death (a week ago working fine; now the dreaded "screen is not responding" issue.)
Just a quick good bye to my HD2 kin.
From learning to theme on WM (making cabs!) to learning android (decompiling!) it was all done here.
Off to something new. Maybe the HTC One...we'll see.
(and if you have tmobile US and have a suggestion, I am all ears...)
Cheers to all and thanks.
have you tried pressing the power and call button simultaneously?

So true. Wish it would keep working.
I still have my good ol' hd2, only one volume button works, bottom buttons are finnicky, and I had to sacrifice the radio antenna coax to use it for a wifi coax, usb port is broken out of the phone, but I still take it out of my drawer of dead phones and play around with it sometimes. RIP HD2, best smartphone ever made

Hi James, sorry to hear that news buddy,I recently passed on my HD2 to my wife and after very little use by her (tbh she barely uses it as a phone,more like an move player) she had broken the head phone socket,i.e the jack won't slide in. As you can see from my sig I've gone to a galaxy note as my daily driver, it's been a great move, but if you were considering the note, get the international version unless you really need the 4g lte of the us phone.all the best to you ..Marc

:crying::crying::crying::crying: I cant tell you how upset I am after loosing my HD2 today...
they say a person's anger is his greatest victim and I learned that lesson
Smashed my HD2 on the floor in anger...now I only have bits and pieces of it left. Was my first phone I bought with my first paycheck...more than the price was the emotional value of the phone...nothing can bring it back.
Take a lesson from my experience and never let your anger lead you. :crying::crying:
A last pic.
^ a Woman can cause so much rage but yours seems beyond that...
poor HD2. (though that thought sometimes crosses my mind - smashing teh pone)
