Could you have made that any more hilarious?! Lol I'm bookmarking this thread just cause of that

...
Well I had a dash and I kinda miss it. I could stream video from anywhere on skyfire so I could watch anime and shows. I could watch ANY video file on TCPMP, and had Mobile Office etc etc etc. Since there are a million WM phones the programs that were availible were enormous but Android is pickin up steam and many companies are plannin on using the OS which means more and more apps
Best thing you can do is go the link already posted and get some info

I'm, surprised he came from the dash and not the sidekick - if you ever want to fear for the future of our species, check out the danger forums. If you can find three posts on it that have complete sentences and/or all words spelled properly, you've count at least one of them twice. It's ridiculous.

Since I am not smart enough to make fun of his grammar, I'd like to address his problem. OP needs to realize that WM has been out for years (and hasn't changed much in that time, I've had an ipaq 1945, MDA, Dash, Tilt). G1 just got paid apps when, 6 months ago? When Android is around for a few more years, then no matter what you are looking for, there will be "an app for that".

I have also had a Dash in the past. It was a rock solid phone and I loved it. Give the Android OS more time to develop. WM has been around for many years.

2 things...first, you misspelled ****** (lol). Second, I moved over to the g1 after having a Dash. I loved my dash, took it on deployment with me, had it for almost 2 years, but after using the g1 I can safely say that I am not going back. Learning the G1 took next to no time, but just going back to the Dash for a little bit (my wife uses it now) it seems like there is a learning curve (and it was my primary phone for 2 years). I know the thoughts going through your head and the questions. I've been there. Ultimately the only thing that I can say is try it. That is exactly why there is the 2 week return policy. Play with the G1 and if you don't like it return it, get your money back and go back to your dash while you wait for the Dash 3G to come out.

Actually, there are a large number of mistakes in your "sentence." First, as pointed out, you spelled "******" wrong. Second, when referring to yourself, "I" is capitalized. The method in which you used "it's" would require the apostrophe. Third, "alot" isn't even a word. It is actually two words "a lot." I won't even begin to go into the grammatical errors in the use of "it's just I text a lot" as I don't think you would be capable of understanding that.
I'm not trying to be a jackass, but when someone resorts to name calling and rude comments because they cannot take a joke, it seems warranted to put the person in their place. What Luca_Dream posted was funny. Why can't you just accept it and say, in net-speak, "LOLZ, you're right. I'm just so used to texting!" In that way you would have shown maturity and good humor without getting the "smack-down" from the community.

Grow up and take your ignorant self back to the Danger forum. I used a Dash for two years and and used a Sidekick for a year and a half. Between texting friends, bright kite and twitter I rack up about 4000 text messages a month - so yes.. it is possible to "text alot" and still manage to put together a sentence with complete words, punctuation and at least 3rd grade level grammar.
At least PRETEND that you respect yourself and maybe others will return the sentiment.
Plus, I don't suck ass. I'll lick it every now and then though.

Just got pointed here as the post some were above was reported,
Lost for words but that could be due to the one of the follwing facts
1) I can't spell
2) Was not aware of nolageek habits or are they "work ethics"
3) Can hardly read as I seem to be laughing to much.
Think some of the above was handled rather nicely in a politicaly incorrect manor maybe.

Else lets get back on topic

Well it was fun while it lasted..

Have finally decided to go back to using my Storm 2, with all the great features the HD2 has, I just cannot get the hang of the damn keyboard..tried all third party ones, none were accurate for speedy one handed typing. The registry fixes seemed to work sometimes and not other times - It was driving me insane.
Typing something like..."ok mate, see you in a minute.." turned into a game of Buckaroo, or minesweep!
I will miss the great screen and super web browsing - not to mention great customisability features of the device
...but to be honest, come to think of it, thats all I will miss.
Great forum here

Really I can't understand the problem is in the device or person?
I'm replying this from my device only, typed one handed without issues and without any patch installed. It just need some time to get use to the new device.
I actually find it way easier to type in my HD2 comparing to my iPhone with t9 support.
There is some difficulty with high sensitivity, but its compensated with the t9 error correction.
Anyways, best of luck with your another device.

Stumbling along using T9 is hardly a good test of whether a keyboard is up to the task now is it? It's cheating.
The fact remains that typing on the HD2 keyboard - and I mean properly typing with no kids' correction services* - is pretty damned hard work. I have to correct almost every word and it is extremely tedious. The keyboard seems to have regular funny turns too where it becomes super-sensitive and where some of the keys, mainly backspace, adopt a mind of their own. Anyone who defends this keyboard, let alone says it's good, is surely having a laugh. I can manage it better than most, a few friends have had a go and it put them off the handset instantly. They had at first loved the screen but the keyboard soon had them turning their noses up.
*T9 and the like were invented to make multi-tap keypads more useable for the masses. I never used it then so with a full QWERTY at my disposal I'm certainly not interested. I'm a very fast typist and can bang-out whole words faster than people can using T9. I should not have to go hunting for new keyboards or using T9 workarounds on a premium device. It's just not on and I fully appreciate why the OP has ditched his handset.

A fact? Just like it's fact that ALL HD2's have hardware faults?
What you think is a fact is in fact not a fact at all but nonsense. It's one of the best software keyboards ever. Really better than the iPhone's that, if you belive the common opinion, was previously the best (I had an iPhone, I know the HD2 has a better keyboard).
Now don't tell me about threads where people complain bout the keyboard. I told you before why that would be stupid (though I'm sure you didn't get it...):

You'd also realize that this is a forum where people come when they try to get solutions - people who don't have problems usually don't tell everyone about it. Your conclusion that just because you have two faulty devices all must be faulty is total nonsense - almost all devices are perfectly fine and even more important, are of much higher quality than most other phones (*cough* iPhone *cough*)

I really cannot imagine a worse keyboard. I'm sorry but whatever you're comparing it to is not worthy of any accolades if the HD2 keyboard beats it into submission. You cannot seriously tell me that inputting text on this device is anything but a tedious and frustrating experience.

Again, you show that you're unable to read.
As I said (and you couldn't read) I compared to the iPhone I had (and the Touch HD). The HD2 has a much better keyboard.
If it's true that the iPhone had the best keyboard (that's what people say), then now the HD2 has the best one.
You draw the conclusion that just because YOU are not able to type on it, it's bad? You're much more of a stupid troll than I thought.

LOL. I really must stress that I'm only humouring you because I have absolutely nothing better to do apart from drink beer and argue with you. I'm holed-up in a hotel room in a strange city and it's kinda fun....to a point.
Nobody I know likes the HD2 keyboard save a handful of people on this forum. It's absolutely terrible. HTC need to sort a hotfix immediately because loads of people will return their handsets for this and this alone.

Yeah sure... nobody likes the keyboard and loads of people return their devices
Actually only stupid people return their devices because of small, easily fixable software flaws... and if they're not only stupid but also trolls and/or psychologically disturbed, they open threads to tell everyone that they've returned their devices.

I believe that you are deliberately trying your very hardest to ruin our experience with the HD2, actively creating and perpetuating mirages of exaggerated hardware faults, causing unrest among the forum members, and continuously complaining about everything in the HD2. This is not a casual accusation, this is the result of a comprehensive review of what goes back to your first post.
Unless you are being paid for this, just sell your phone and buy an iPhone, or, roll over and die! See who cares about your mobile phone satisfaction

Just in case I am falling into that category, I am in fact keeping it, but waiting for a fix, a miracle, or some prozac - before I use it again

@sunking
Sure, you tried to get fixes
You wanted people to read your complaints and spread FUD, that's all.

I'm on my second one, the first went back. Went back to my iphone. Keyboard on iphone is way more accurate. Hd2 need a major overhaul typing is very hard.
Typing on my touch hd was way better and t9 sucks. I'm giving this thing a couple more days but its not looking good.
Just so you all know in the last two years ive had and loved an x7500, a touch, a touch hd, then iphone (which i dislike very much) and now the hd2. This according to the specs was THE!!! phone i was waiting for. Software wise its just not close to the hardware spec. It needs a lot of work. especially for the price. We will see what the next few days bring.

yeah for the love of god I wish this guy would leave, its annoying to log on.and find every otherpost a bash on the HD2 by this guy... can't wait until he gets bored and moseys on!

Afterall ....it is a PHONE !

Right after flashing with a new baked rom from here i have sorted out many of the software "glitches" the oem rom had and the phones performance is quite good.
im still pretty annoyed at htc that i have to rely on the community to fix their poorly coded software
but at the end of the day its device is one thing .... a phone!!!!! ....and at that, yet again it fails !! the signal reception is crap ... and when it does work the call quality is shocking for such a state of the art handset.

have you tried diffrent radio?

i have 2.04.50.22_2 which i think is the newest for my country (uk) the new raido did improve it slightly but it still sucks !

Nope. I've never had any problems with SMS either and, as far as I'm concerned, the reception on this phone is 100% fine.
Thread after thread on this forum seems to be taken up with whiners who assume that every little quibble that they have is a problem for everyone. For the record, not only am I perfectly happy with my HD2 but I think HTC did a brilliant job with the hardware AND the software.

+1
I am tired of HTC bashing ... Stop it, please.
If you don't like the phone, sell it. I am very happy with mine. Never had sms problem and reception is just excellent. So the problem is not the phone it self.

No SMS problems with mine either, no bad reception, but several other "glitches".
But then again, im throwing .cabs at this phone in an extreme pace

I really do like the phone and would not want to sell it for one minute. However I do not make many calls.
My reception is shocking as well. In comparison to other phones the reception is extremely poor at best.
I said in a thread a while ago that this phone is fundamentally flawed. I say this because of the positioning of the aerial at the bottom of the phone - and HTC's recommendation not to hold it at the bottom. How the hell else do you hold a phone? And why put the aerial there in the first place?
I really don't think that the phone will get any better with ROM updates.

What I do not like about this phone is the keyboard/touchscreen. I'm slowly getting to grips with it but it's a slow process and quite frustrating. It runs very smooth no crashing or hangups thankfully. I had the SMS bug but turning it off and on cured that..for now. I've sent three texts in landscape mode typing by accident, urgh!
Signal wise, I get an average of 3/full bars in my bedroom. Living on the border between Northern and Republic of Ireland I barely got 2 with previous phones (LG Secret/Xperia X1) using o2. This is stock ROM (1.43.206.4 (70315) WWE) and stock radio (2.04.50.22_2). I'm very impressed with signal alone, but I try not to cover up the bottom.

Well I have never had to modify the way I hold the phone and, as I said before, I don't have any reception problems. If the phone were "fundamentally flawed" as you suggest then the problem you report would be experienced universally.
If people have issues with their phone then I don't have a problem with them discussing them to work together to find a solution. However, that's not what is happening in this forum. Instead people are just whining, complaining and making ridiculous claims and assumptions. The phone isn't fundamentally flawed, it works perfectly for the silent majority who don't have any problems. I understand if people get frustrated by annoying problems but you'd be far better off working constructively to find solutions rather than talking crap.

No, all it tells me is that most people that come here to complain are having problems. Nothing more and nothing less.
Has it occurred to you that you might be the problem rather than HTC or the phone? In between all the *****ing and moaning you haven't bothered to tell us anything about what you've done to the phone. How do we know that you haven't installed an application that's responsible for the problems you're experiencing? How do we know that you haven't changed a setting or cocked up a registry setting? If you want help then stop this childish ranting, otherwise don't bother posting.

try going to the official HTC web site, download all the software updates. As for the reception, change the bandwidth in order to get full 3g network coverage but be warned, it will drain your batter even more!

Good bye HD2, it's been hell and back.

For the last 6 weeks I've had nothing but headaches between two T-Mobile HD2's. I bought on release date, 3 days later I was better off tossing it in the freezer because all it would do is freeze. It also lagged, was buggy and a glitch fest. Apps didnt work, screen didn't work, Sense UI wouldn't load ugh, I can go on. I got another HD2, within the first 7 hours it froze on me too lol. It also had the same issues as the first.
I just want to thank everybody here in the forums for helping solve my phone issue, as I've research and tried everything but they did not help. Also thanks to HTC and T-mobile.com for putting up with my madness lol, although T-Mobile allowed me to get my OG plan back (and keep my HD2), I can now leave T-Mobile (im under no contract) to get something else (leaning towards the Evo 4G over the Nexus One).
P.S. I hope T-Mobile gets there act together and releases a patch ASAP, it sucks that such a incredible piece of hardware is having a lot of problematic issues.

that's weird,I assume you were on stock rom which is why u got the issues...custom roms eliminate those issues u have on stock rom.

i dont think it's so much the stock ROM, mine's been wonderful with the stock ROM. it's more that he was unlucky enough to be one of the first bozos who got the phone with version 2.10. for me, rom version 2.11 has been nothing but bliss, so much that after trying several custom roms i went back to my stock 2.11 because, compared to it, all custom roms suck (winmo devs aren't as good as android devs).
there's a thread with stock roms and 2.11 is usable even without hspl (i kept hspl out of personal preference and I'll try to make my own build). good luck to you anyway. i suggest you get a nexus one and flash desire rom (or heck, get a desire)

If it is freezing, the first setting I would check is
Start > Settings > Menu > All Settings > Today > Items
The setting "Today timeout", at the bottom left hand corner,
should not be selected/enabled.

why shouldnt the today timeout be selected,just out of curiosity?

i just unchecked it so i'll wait and see if anything improves (i have minor freezing/lag with calls and sms sometimes)...but im also curious what this fixes

I think its more of a "You don't know how to use such a powerful piece of equipment!!!" There is nothing wrong with your phone, its just easier for you to believe your own lie when you return it by posting for others to read what horse doo doo it is,...Like for example, "Transformers missing do to a Faulty sdCARD"...sorry I have full reset my phone several times just to erase everything and removed my sdCard with no Data loss issues, I agree with the other guy, I think its you and you should properly close your apps before claiming its your phone...Ever heard P.E.B.K.A.C before?...Problem Exists Between Keyboard and Chair!!! That's you!!! Grow up!! These Phones Rock, apple fan boys will do anything to make a solid product look bad.

My phone has frozen at least once every day it seems like. But I think i solved the battery issue. I bought a second battery!! Haha, I am so S M R T! At any rate, I love this phone for the big screen and fast internet. I just wish I had a way to get mp4's to watch. Or that more books on barnes and noble were free.

LOL, Less talking, more listening kid.
It's obvious you have no idea what your talking about and lacking the intelligence to do so. I have plenty of videos posted here showing how horrible my two devices are (do a search). It's HTC Sense UI that is the problem, not WM6.5. I've shown HTC reps and T-Mobile reps my phone, they've test and diagnosis it, and if it wasn't for me, there wouldn't be a update on the way. So keep talking ****, that's why your teeth are brown.
Dude is soo anal because I gave up on my HD2, lol. If you like yours that fine but don't cry me a river because I didn't like mine lmao!

Are you serious! You think it's because of you that an update is on it's way?! If you do, you are a severe narcissist. The fact that you think that really makes anything else you claim questionable.

Woot, 8 posts to 1,000.

I was with you till you said the bolded
how solipsistic can you be to assume that based on your pathetic user experience that tmobile and htc would generate an entire updated rom to suit just your needs??? Give me a break dude...
this is xdas not fan pandering to overly zealous delusional users that are so far up steve jobs craw they can see his prostate...I mean seriously what the frick???
And I admit for 80% of errors it is brought on by the user and not the device itself. The hd2 has its flaws. All phones do...but for most users they are iphone/android converts expecting the same experience without doing any research on htc and windows mobile. And to those users, yes I say they do deserve any error they get. Why? You didn't take time to learn about your device. This isn't something as simple as a flashlight where you press the on button and something magically happens. Its a pocket pc and that means a lot...

Closing this thread as it is turning into a bashing session. Lets keep it civil.

Interesting response to the whole "omg sms bugz"

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9392#c1350
What proves that you lie? The next:
1) thread was created on June 28 and even was in search results 1 or 2 times for me or even on one tech website, but it is 6 MONTHS AGO, no EFFECT was then and during this period! FOLKS! 6MONTHS you keep your silence waiting? and now are yelling like sheeps?
2) all complaints appeared in OLD THREAD simultaneously on December 31, but you say that it was for a long time;
3) you name your devices every time without any detailes, the name of Device alone says nothing for bug fixing; this is ordered by your owner, TROLLS, to name all Android devices here to demonstrate the scale of your 'problem'; this addresses your claims to usual consumers, buyers, not to developers; you just need an attention of consumers, which buy devices, not developers who should find your INVENTED bug in REINVENTED thread;
4) you post here almost identical useless 3-4 words messages. DO YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS a developer's forum? detailes? logs? screens? descriptions? or you don't have a good another place from where you could scream?
5) you use the same words in all 3 places where ****storm should been created to make a feeling that these words are so obvious, but they are written down in your file on computer.
6) bugs are usually a result of updating or installing or some intrusions, you don't connect your complaints with any of your actions with Android OS or OS's changes on your devices.
7) nobody here don't try to really find a solution for 'his problem', because you just need a ****STORM, yelling, scandal; it says a lot about true your goals here;
8) those 2 resources from whose you came here are perfect for starting ****storms. theey are big and different to target different users- one is more glamorous and another one is more geeky;
9) you use term 'switch' and competitor's phones. Folks who experience a problem will not start their messages from the words 'I think about breaking my contract' or 'I'm switching'. You talk to customers/ buyers, saying this, NOT DEVELOPERS;
10) the idea for ****storm was found excellent, must agree: SMS is a basic feature as dropped calls during an important call, everyone sends millions of messages every day, half of them are so sexual and zesty that will cause firing and misunderstanding everywhere, even EMBARASSMENT!;
11) old retired idea about Google's privacy concerns is a very good sauce for such stories;
12) a slap into the face of openness- 'Look, Google, what we can do with your openness and your Open Handset Alliance!';
13) exactly before CES 2011;
14) tremendous growth of Android that needs ****storm to be able to compete better and to shine brighter;
15) just to create a proof for the words that you repeat on the internet as zombies about Android.
16) this thread was old,but once established and almost forgotten due to its uselessness, it just needed reinvention on December 31; this fact gave to this thread so bad-needed maturity to show that nothing is fixed from the 1st report; which also help push the theme 'Google doesn't care'.
17) if this bug was existing you wouldn't act as you act now

I don't agree with everything he says but the bolded are good points. [I don't think the guy speaks English]
Not saying that the issue shouldn't be resolved as fast as possible..
Just kinda funny that, as he points out, if it's such a "serious issue" why was it barely-if ever- talked about until RIGHT before CES?
Also kinda funny that every time this bug happens...the text is of a sensitive nature....
I call BS on that.
As I have said before, Engadget is a lot like "sexy action news" with their "the world is ending" article titles.
This issue, while it does need to be fixed, is not as serious nor is it as excessively occurring as claimed.
If so, then it would have been reported more often in the last six months than ONCE.

It's simple: A lot of people don't get to use the AOSP message app - how many stock Android phones are there? But if you go on AOSP ROM threads you'll get see SMS complaints pop up occasional. I guess it's a story because it still hasn't been fixed after all this time plus a HUGE stock phone just dropped - the Nexus S. Reviewers have taken notice.

?
The "claim" by Engadget is that it is an issue in coding of Android and "will occur no matter what SMS program is used" [which is complete and utter bull****]
It DOES need to be fixed but the timing and "end all" nature of Engadget article screams attention whoring.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong article but where does it say that?
http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/31/android-still-has-horrible-text-messaging-bugs-thatll-get-you-f/

not sure if this is the same bug but me and my brother who both have had evo's since the launch had a problem with clicking on a conversation, starting to write a text and notice that we were actually sending it to a complete wrong person. It was few months ago, i actually sent few msgs to wrong people before i caught on.

Sorry, it's actually not in that article, although it does kind of insinuate it.
It's been said on here and in other places though.
Android has been plagued with a couple extremely serious bugs in its text messaging subsystem

That seems to implicate that it is not SMS app specific.
But as I said, others have read this and made the claim.

This has happened to me numerous times on stock, custom sense, and MIUI ROMs. I'll send a text to someone, and both they and a random person that was already in my texting list (someone that I have texted before) will get the text. It has happened on all 3 of my EVOs. Also, sometimes when I click on a thread it takes me to a completely different thread. I have almost sent a text to the wrong person because of this many times.

I think I understand this. It has something to do with the way Android handles the "back" hard/softkey function. It's missremembering which tile is where in the stack. It seems to happen when the "stack" or remembered tiles is too large. Try spamming the back button sometime. Occasionally it will do some interesting things.
Fix may be as simple as a small routine that scrubs whatever cache is responsible for this behavior.

This happened to me, I thought it was me not paying attention, or that might have really been the case. I almost got caught up it something because if it Now I tend to delete all the other sms's in my inbox while having a sensitive conversation.

Guys, I don't question that this happens.
I know it does because it's happened to me.
Once or twice...
I DO question how it suddenly "happens all the time" and only when its a "sensitive message". I call complete BS on both issues.

Happens to me maybe once a week, have never actually sent a text to the wrong person because of it.

The engadget article is the first I've heard of this. I've been with android since the launch of droid 1 and it never happened to me???

So is the bug is that it merges your text with other threads and makes you send to wrong person right?

No, say you open up your message app and click on the thread you have going with John, it will instead open the thread you have with Jane. So if youre not paying attention youll text the wrong person.

Oh I sees..... I had a sms problem in my hero where i would click my wifes thread, then type, then realize it went to some one else and merged the whole thing together...
The reason it was doing it was... Sms email text alerts from my bank of america.. The @.... Email text
Only fix was factory reset...until the next message came in... I fixed it by turning the bank alerts off...

Not gonna lie, pretty hilarious things have happened to me because of this bug. I either send lots of awful text messages, or my phone is trying to mess with me.
One time I accidentally sent an old school friend a text meant for my girlfriend that was pretty mushy. Woke up to a text back going.. "..um wut".
The second time was more terrible; some less-than-politically correct stereotypes questions meant for a close friend that ended up sent to a (thankfully trustworthy but still awkward) co-worker. :B
I only noticed after sending the text (and sending it IN THE THREAD for the person it was meant for) and then being redirected back to my list of conversation threads only to find that the completely incorrect contact was now at the top of my list and was in fact the newly chosen recipient for my text message.

Is someone from Microsoft going to have to develop a SMS recall function? We all know how well it works in outlook.
