I think most of you guys don't use your herald anymore and I've recently started to get tired of mine(due to i fail at flashing through sd card) so I'm in the market for a new phone. Just wondering if you guys can give some feedback on phones you may recently have bought. I'm on the tmobile network so i was thinking of getting the g1 or new mytouch phone. If you guys have any suggestions or feedback on those phones or any other ones i would appreciate it. I love my wing but I think its time to upgrade.

That's the problem, it is an if at this point. The Touch Pro 2 is already confirmed on the big 4 in the US, it's already released on half of them, and releasing on the other half in the next 60 days. It's the "it" phone this year, and probably well into next year as well. It's definitely my next phone.
IMHO "upgrading" to a new Android device is in all reality "downgrading". What makes WinMo great, the customizations...the programs...the hackability, it hardly exists on Android. Yes yes I know before someone comes in here and goes all custom ROM on me, you can do stuff with it. But Android to me is just another pretty dumbphone OS, *cough* iPhone *cough*.
You took the words right out of my mouth dude.
I've had my Wing for more than 2 years and it's done good for me even though, spec wise, it is a crappy phone lol.
The phone I'm getting next is the Touch Pro 2.
I have both the TP2 and the G1, now, in defense of android, it can be a fun system, but I have several issue with it, speed being the main one. Using a custom rom, and actually installing apps slows the phone to a crawl.. the tp2 is awesome.
I cant wait until i get my Tmobile Touch Pro2. At least my wings will go down using the newest Windows Mobile,lol. Even though i plan to keep mine.
TP2 looks amazing, and I might spring for it when it comes out. Right now I use a G1 with a custom ROM and no complaints about the speed
Uhm, you do know that the TP2 is already out right?

The Touch Pro 2 came out a couple months ago.
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

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

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.

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.

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.
I finally got the HD2 after a month of wating.
Had it for 2 weeks, and since a few days ago, I've been tempted to get Nexus One.
I love HD2 and flashing is a very fun hobby.
But then I always think, Nexus has this, that...sigh...
been dying inside for a few days. I want nexus, but then I'd feel like a traitor, Id want nexus, but what if hd2 is heaps better? what if...what if...
sigh...sorry for real random post.

I was going to suggest a Desire too, then there would be the waiting to find out if there was going to be a GSM Evo and the anguish when the answer was no then the joy when the replacement for the Evo is announced first in europe then the pain of Android 4 being delayed. No matter what phone or platform there will be joy and pain . We are all freaks and the world is against us. Rage, rage against the technophiles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That will be their battle cry

I'll be honest. I was in line for 6 hours to get the first iPhone. I even created a special line just to have iPhone. it was such a tremendous waste of money and sanity. But then when you're an apple sheep, you can't put a price on freedom.
Then G1 'liberated' me.

Ill be honest, apple whored me out too.
And I know exactly where your coming from wanting Droid.
But just keep hoping and praying we'll soon have droid thanks to a dev here at XDA.
I miss the apple appstore, but thinking about it... I spent allot of money (well not really, jailbraking = free apps but shht) And how many of them apps did I use on a day to day basis?
1, maybe 2 out of a good 30 i had...
I use the apps on my HTC everyday.
So looking at the bigger picture, you dont need the app store
Droid though, I NEED!
hi guys,
well recently i had been in big dilemma...
My frustrated GF just asked me to choose between my HTC HD2 and Her now thats F***ed up!
I can never live without my htc hd2 which i use quite frequently for email txt msgs (oh yeah go over 300+ per day easily).
Well i'll leave the decision to u guys...
Cheers
[Edit1 = 19 Oct 2010] GOD!!! its getting even complicated than i thought it wud be MANNNNNN!!!
I am not willing to share my HD2 neverrrrrrrrrr so she aint' getting that lol we are still on NO TALKING mode and i love it i get to spend quality time with my HD2 wot u say
ops i meant to post this in HTC HD2 general not android... Mod please move

It's obvious, the HD2
It never argues with you or make you spend money to buy it food and it listens to you.

@OP, just put bater at the end of your name.
Are those stomach cramps you're feeling? Food not settling well? You may just need to spend a lot of time sitting on the porcelain throne. Then you can have your cake and eat it too.
Best of luck.

just something for you to think about =)
If it's about gf,then I absolutely choose HD2
But fortunately she was my ex gf now (she is my wife now ).
...And she gave me a son about 2 months ago
If it's about my family & HD2....I CHOOSE MY WONDERFUL FAMILY
but its a gift from my gfwhat should i do??
HD2 will help you communicate with other women, gf is nothing much, can find plenty of those around for a night, a day, few hours. Till you find the one and only gf to become wife and such, HD2 will help you find your way!
I'm a chick, and even *I* say pick the phone. Your GF sounds incredibly immature & bratty, getting jealous of an inanimate object like that. I'd dump any guy that couldn't handle my HD2 addiction. I'm a phone geek, I've always been one, and I will always be one, and anyone that's gonna be with me has to accept it or else it won't work & there's no point in staying together anyway. I wouldn't give up my favorite hobby for ANYONE, I let people know up front that this is who I am & what I like to do, & if they think they can change me they can go kick rocks. I've never had a problem finding a boyfriend, any guy that tries to make me choose between my favorite hobby & him is easily replaceable.
This isn't so much about choosing a phone over your GF, it's about her trying to control you. That's a HUGE red flag for any relationship. She's trying to make you give up something you like, something completely innocent & harmless, because she has an irrational dislike of it, and that's not healthy. It may just be a phone now, but what will it be in the future? Say you do give it up- I guarantee you'll regret it & you'll start to resent her for it.
I don't get why girls have such huge problems with their men liking technology. There are so many worse things they could be obsessed with. Hell, I WISH I could find a guy with an tech addiction as big as mine. I'd love to have someone I can get excited over ROMs & Android builds with & to just geek out with.
