You can't unlock extra ROM because it doesn't exist, and no-one's talking about the TMO version with more ROM because it's old news and we're all talked out about it.

No one is talking about it because we know there is no extra rom to unlock. No one cares much about the T Mo version because it will only work on T Mo in the USA, so why would anyone else in the world care.

We should really have waited for the WP7 announcement before buying our HD2s... so that we could have all those perfectly working cheaper HD2s sold by these people that are disappointed with their thing not doing MORE than what they say on the box...

tbh i couldnt care less about WMP7 either. i am loving WM6.5 atm!

lol @ the trolls
Yeah, you go sell your HD2 because it won't have WM7 on it. Good luck not having a phone for the next 9 months, unless of course you're not actually waiting for WM7 and just talking rubbish.

Totally agree mate, and especially since it's running on the best hardware currently available.

boo hoo no WM7 wahhh wahhh!!
Go play with your nexus, lil boy.

I am sure that there will be some cooked versions of WM7 for HD2 here on XDA.

what does it matter when 90% of the HD2 owners have already sold their phone for the Nexus one by then.

I sold my HD2 to a dupe for £500 and got a nexus and ebay HD2 for the same.
Jks.
Why would i want 3.7" when 4.3" is bigger...albeit with fewer colours.
LOL.
my e-peen swelleth!!!
AND - to all those naysayers HD2+flexishield fits in the pockets of my 31" waist levi 506 jeans with minimal bulge. wooo wooo. I think nexus2 and iphone4G should be 4.3" too.

Claims of WP7 from Tom_Codon march 2010

Well were coming up to to the month milestone of when Tom dropped the news of having WP7 running on his HD2.
I know I will get flamed for this, but I am niave and a part of me still despite no real proof being given, is hoping.
It would be great if we got some news/proof at the end of this month.
Seg

da_g and chainfire have stated this exists....
that's plenty of proof in my book imho

please people, let it go....nobody was gonna get wp7 on the hd2 before the news and so there is no difference if it was all a lie...
that said, i do belive in it, reputable people have said its true. just enjoy the damn device and when wp7 comes, it will come, and i would like to see a thread with all the non belivers apologising

I know some good reputable ppl have clearly stated that its true. I am not doubting them for a minute. I personally expected to hear or see something else since the initial statement. I do enjoy my device, I just love trying new things.
The conversation surrounding this, had died a little lately, so I thought I would spark up some more interesting conversation/debate.

I do feel the same way, totaly
It's in a way like christmas when I was young besides.. you knew when it would be
// I btw don't think this is leading us anywhere..

But thats just it, how can you EXPECT something from somebody when they dont owe you anything? you can expect customer service from HTC, or expect an official statement from HTC about wp7 (which we got), but you cant expect news about someones personal project...you arent paying them, they are doing it out the kindness of the heart and the passion they have for this phone...
well thats my opinion for example...i fix my friend's and family's computers from time to time for no charge. nobody can expect me to fix it in any reasonable time frame, nor even even expect it to be fixed at all, even if i say i can. if they do, then its really unnappretiative and its quite hurtful. alot of people did ***** about the videos of wp7 on the hd2, if it was me, i wouldnt even bother giving it to anyone, just on the fact that so many people grinded me down about it.

I think you have mis-interpreted my use of the the word "Expected" by this I meant "Hoped" or "Thought"
I do agree with you though, they don't owe us anything, and after the slagging off that some guys gave them, I would say F off to everyone.

ah ok, well yeh one can hope for it, thats all good! even i hope for it! well actually i dunno, when they said wp6 and wm6.5 isnt interchangeable made me decide not to go with wp7. but still, id love to see it! but even if they lied (which i keep stressing i dont think they are!), i wouldnt think less of them, none of us are really gettin affected and we have got alot from them anyway with wm6.5

yeah I asked him last week in a podcast he visited on ppcgeeks...said a lot including a test rom for tg01 which also makes a lot of sense. I've said on htcpedia that I wouldn't be surprised the devices we see in the fall are very similar to devices released LAST year with minor improvements in hardware (if that)
If the htc touch hd2 and the g01 were the true test devices that wp7 was based on, then as a developer I'd just go hey why do I need to make a new device? Use the old internals and I have a wp7 device. I think for early devices that's what is going to happen but again that's just my speculation on htc and toshiba. Dell et al probably have devices built from the ground up...
I mean I want to try wp7 too and its looking better and more fluid every single day that gives me hope that microsoft has made a better "coded" os that when unlocked will actually be more open than the devices we have right now. To get to that point will take time, but that's what xda is for. I mean zune hd is hacked, I expect wp7 to be hacked too. just depends on time and devices
edit
hoping this conversation remains civil because so far no flames no claims of it was publicity and I said on htcpedia again why does a site like that need publicity it averages in US daytime 250 members per hour! late night 125! a site like that doesn't need real advertising.
We can't say its an april fool either that's come and gone. so the only other logical outcome is that it exists there are some issues (lo and behold tom said there were graphics issues)
so I am waiting enjoying wp 6.5

Does anyone actually know Tom or Da_G or ITJE? Could they ask them for an update? Anything is better than nothing.

I just don't see the draw towards WM7. I stopped using the iPhone because the locked down environment... even after jailbreaking. WM6.5 w/ Sense is the BEST OS and GUI that I've used on a phone. It has usability elements while retaining the functionality of WM. It seems to me that M$ is moving backwards.

Im with you 100% on that statement. I feel like M$ is turning into Apple.

I don't understand why you are talking like this actually..
Sure, WP7 is locked down OS with many disadvantages, I agree with that!
BUT it brings lots of new features and its going to have full flash support etc.
it's not all bad.. basically this whole thing is not part of this discussion!
This is about WP7 on hd2 which was claimed to be real by tom.
Cheers

Apart from the HD2 WP7 exists/doesn't exist...
....
I don't get why there isn't any news from tom_codon or any other people and why they aren't releasing it..
Sincerely, I'm not understanding why tom_codon gave the news of WP7 on HD2.
I mean... okay, WP7 HD2 ROM does exist, noone apart tom_codon and some other people has got it, but why are you saying to all that it does exist if you can't/don't want to release it?
It's not so mature and smart in a community where all is shared and that lives on the ROM sharing to say "I've got WP7! But you won't get it! Hah!!"........ am I wrong?

Good News for people in the USA....

I just wanted to let everyone know in the USA that Sprint is releasing the new HTC Evo which is basically an HTC HD2 with a few upgrades and runs Android instead of Windows Mobile. I personally have the Telstra HD2 running on AT&T and love it and I would have got the T-Mobile version except that the T-Mobile coverage is horrible where I live and in many other parts of the country it is extremely poor as well. The Telstra HD2 also doesnt support some 3G bands that AT&T uses, I was lucky enough to live in an area which it does.
I am only mentioning this because its another option for people here in the USA to get a device like the HD2 with a few upgrades and running Android if thats something you want. I am thinking about switching because I am a tech Junky. I swear I am never satisfied!!!

I think everyone is aware of this

I doubt everyone because I just found out a few days ago and I tend to keep myself fairly up to date on stuff like this.

Maybe you need better sources that don't display 2-3months old news. BTW, there's a big thread on the EVO 4G a couple pages back

Lol, I just came to this topic just to see if anyone would slam you, I was right.
It happens though it is reasonable enough to note that you are probably right, there are people that would still not know about it. Thank you for notifying us!

The second poster is right.
Everyone knows.

You lucky bastards.. i live in europe.. and we will never get the EVO4

I just love the fact that people come in here just to bash me... I expected people to bash me but its not like I care; I personally have better things to do than lurk around looking for people to pick on for no reason. I just wanted to point it out for anyone that didn't already know. I am sure there will be a few people who were happy to be informed about it.

Don't bother, EVO4 has nothing much in general than HD2 ! Even Sprint doesn't have that 4G network yet

maybe work will start on porting winmo to evo

Pretty much this. I have a sprint overdrive (3g/4g) from work and use it when im going off-site and being that I'm in SoCal (pretty big market), I'll be lucky if it even locks on to 4G. It's a good marketing tool, but to ask people to pay an extra $10/mo for 4G when the coverage is minuscule at best..is a bit outlandish. But hey, in a year or so, 4G has to compete with HSPA+ and LTE, so don't lose sleep over data speed if you're one of those people.

Yeah, I'm sure most people on this forum are well aware of the EVO. Most people on xda keep pretty up to date. I don't know how the OP just found out... even my brother, who has no real interest in phones or gadgets, knows about it. Plus this is the HD2 section... there's no reason to post about this in the HD2 section. There is already an EVO section on xda, I believe.

I don't know what bugs you are talking about, but more than likely it is the roms. Limitations, then yes, I know of. e.g only 512 rom.

Good moved.

such a shame someone else leaves and buys them self an iphone 4, yeah and your point is??????

We hardly care that you went and bought an iphone 4.
The lack on Android, well firstly wrong there loads of Builds available, some have a few problems some have none at all so I cant really see your point here,
Secondly buy a Android Device if thats what you want.
The HD2 is probably the best device available, proven by the amount of work the hackers, programmers etc have put into this phone, they have slugged there guts out making things work that was never supposed to.
So have fun with your iphone locked down piece of poop.

Congratulations. You dumped a real smartphone and paid premium price for a outdated locked down app launcher. Multiple operating systems vs one boring operating system? Choice vs restriction? Bad move buddy

Lmao, there is no lack of android!
What is lacking is brain capacity = iPhone user!
There is MANY, MANY roms that work 99.9%. There is MANY, MANY roms that work 99.9% with simple tweaks/modifications.
The reason why you got your iPhone is because you dont have the mental ability or patience to learn. = iPhone user.
Congratulations on your Apple lobotomy, good riddens!

Wish I could find these "bugs" on ny phone but unfortunately my phone works perfectly, Perhaps it was something YOU did incorrectly.

tut..... my only regret is selling the hd2... i brought a htc desire z because of the keyboard and couldnt afford to keep the hd2 cus i needed the money .... but ill get one again because there just such a good phone.... people get so drawn in by the iphone... i just dont see why...

Mate I dont post much but I saw this post and I gotta say, that's the dumbest reason I've ever seen for a person getting rid of a HD2. It is probably the only phone out there which can run almost any ROM so smoothly cus of its high end hardware and also cus the amazing devs who cook really stable and smooth roms for it. This **** is legendary.
Worst decision. Have fun sucking on Steve Jobs' balls even for a thing as little as sending a file via Bluetooth

The phone was too good for you anyway. Have fun with your locked down communist piece of dookie

Tmobile G2 is done but lets keep this going!

Honestly guys. Lets keep this support going regardless! Too many awesome developers giving us great things. donate. do anything possible for them. It's sad that T-Mobile decided after 7 months.. to just end a device that actually was a GREAT device. And honestly should be kept around for longer than that. (I'm sure a lot of us paid 250.00 for it with 2 year contract) I hope as a loving XDA Developer member and many others we can keep this going. I'm rather concerned what will happen in the future with this device on the development side of things. It's a good device and I know in the world of technology things to age very very fast. but maybe we can keep this around for longer than t mobile wants..
Much respect.. XDA guy dude of sorts.

This belongs in general.

Yes it does. But why not let the developers see this? I'd like to hear most of the developers opinions..

Because this is not what the developer forum is for and I really doubt devs are going to pack up and ship out because T-Mo isn't retailing the phone anymore.

I agree and hope this is the case. There are already a ton of us with the G2/DZ and it isn't a big deal if they take it off the shelves. All of you who have it now can just keep it going. I realize the concern with warranty replacement and such, but other than that I see no reason why this is such a big deal. We all know it's a fantastic device, who cares if T-mo doesn't realize that and discontinues it. Our DZ's still will most likely get the software updates you G2 owners won't get, and the DZ version can just be rooted and put on your G2's. There's no reason to freak out and buy a new phone if you have the G2.

The T-mobile G2 is still going to get the Gingerbread update....just wanted to throw that out there.

you guys should check out the g1 forums. a few of the devs there still update ocasionally. I don't think development for this device will stop anytime soon (however the g1 did have lots of small developers as opposed to just a few big ones)

I dont see development ending anytime soon as stated before the G1 and MyTouch3g have Gingerbread and the Devs are still working on the roms for those phones so Im sure the devs will still support our phones for awhile
