Useless thread...see ya!

too bad it didn't work out for you. but we're happy here so maybe it's not your destiny to enjoy this awesome phone

?????
Maaaaan BS i bricked this phone so many times and put it back to normal FACTORY settings and it still runs silky smooth, and it's the same US T-Mobile HTC HD2

Still on my first HD2, which is running fine, and just the way I like it.
I don't think it's 'dead' at all. Someone come and sat next to me with the new iPhone yesterday, trying to show off. I got mine out (phone lol) and felt instantly better equipped than he did, with his little screen and locked down software.

Big Thank you to all Contributors!

These devices right out of the box just don't seem ready for market. Whether its some draconian bootloader not letting one install the ROM he wants or tweaks and settings that arent right, out of the box they leave quite a bit to be desired.
But then i comes the people of this board. As i read through the extensive wiki and went through the process of flashing new ROMs on my Hermes I really came to appreaciate the MASSIVE amount of effort put in by this community in order to allow this PDA to really live up to its potential.
So thank you to all the contributors! I couldn't have even begun this process without your help.
i agreee with you
Me too. You folks are great!!!
ditto!
I would probably have sent this thing back were it not for sleuth255 and mikechannon and goestoeleven and others working on this forum.
fortunately htc has this free resource to fix their buggy phones.
i'm still eagerly awaiting the 8525 aku3.3 update. cingular had said it was due out by feb 1st, but here it isn't. maybe it will be soon. I still wake up with a locked up phone pretty often.
thanks to all of you that have helped make this feature rich thing useable.
wes
Thank you and I too like this community

I agree with all the accolades given. I looked on this board before I bought the phone so I was prepared for what it was not when it came. I had also downloaded all the goodies and was ready to make it the way I wanted it. But since then, more and more things were discovered and shared. Right now, this phone is almost just right. There are a couple of things I am waiting for the new ROM to resolve, but it is currently the best device I have had yet.
As soon as a better toy comes out, I will quickly jump ship and take that one, but only if it has the kind of support this forum gives.

Cingular 8525 DEAD- 1/29/07 to 2/20/07

WSOD.
It happened a couple of times yesterday...screen went white. Then today it just went. Won't come back. No matter what I do. So I'm callin Cingy.
It's a sad day people.
If you are getting the WSOD...take care of it before your HTC device goes to the ever after.
what finally did it? you know what you did to make it start WSODin?

I don't know. It has happened about 3 times since I got it. Then yesterday it did it like twice. Then today it did it once earlier and the second time it just did'n't come back.
It hasn't been dropped or dunked. I even had someone take pictures and send it to my phone but I can't get to the photo. I had just done a hard reset and it was booting up and the screen was white with streaks of colour. Then when I used the stylus it went all white and stayed white.
I've taken the battery out, put it back in, taken it out put it back in....
Clearly there is an issue with the LCD. I'm not happy cuz I didn't want one of their refubared warranty exchanges.
sorry to hear it dude
my 8525s dead too, from early january til about 2 weeks ago
LCD problem too, but mines a little more serious and it wont b covered by warranty via Cingular =(

Nope, mine ain't broke. IT is for sure a major issue with the lcd. What's funny is when it does come up about 3mm of the graphics from the bottom show @ the top.
Watching the not so slow demise was pretty fun. Being without a phone for a day is not. I gotta dig up my 8125.
Hey I just noticed you have a camera hole on yours. How'd you swin that. PM me with the jdetails....Ms. X

TYNT II
FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!
as soon as tmobile rolls it out.. its mine.. muahahahhahaa
If you don't need a keyboard the Polaris is a wicked phone...or maybe a shift if your ballin' out of control.
The Shift is not a phone.. it's like 7+ inches long and is a UMPC...but the Advantage is considered a phone and still fits in a pant pocket..unless it's a guy that's wearing those stupid brand new super tight & tapered wussie looking girlies pants they try to sell in the men'sdept stores that have no pocket space at all.. but if you're wearing like Rockawear or whatever..then they might fit in the pocket.. hehe btw... the next gen of Advantage is coming out... the Enhanced Advantage X7510
Why did you sell the Herald before getting your next phone lined up??
What are you looking for in your phone?? another pda phone? or just a smart/multimedia phone? something flashy or something powerful? with or without FM radio? blablablablablabla.... give us some more info on what you want! Do you need 3G? or 3.5G? or too poor to afford it lot a lot of other people hehe.
.. :'(
did you already get a new one?
Try out the Touch Vogue or Touch Cruise...
or Sedna... or do you if you liked your P4350.. go for a Panda(cool name hehe for p6300) or TyTn II
What's your budget??
Anyone keeping up with news from the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona???
is there a thread for that yet?
Thank you very much for your openions, I baught a TyTn II, Lovely device, Solid and Fast.
Best Regards
This thing is pretty sweet.

what phone after HERO?

Thinking of giving my hero to the wife what phone should I get next?
Money is not an issue.
Looking at Dell streak, galaxy S and Desire.
Have thought Abt going to the darkside but like
Open source of android
If money is not an issue, then go for the iphone 4, I meet yesterday a mate that works apple, he has one, and I was using it last night, the pictures taken with are great, and no signal problems at all, we where inside in a pub, I tested the phone for 30 minutes, doing everything with it, multitasking etc, no probs at all. Once my contrat is finished, I will get one myself.
Another Hero
Or maybe a Desire but not an Iphone because the OS isn't as modifiable than Android..
I'll wait for nexus two...
or some new device with 2MHz processor and gingerbread!
I leave iphone 4 to conformist people
I am leaning toward the galaxy as I want a bigger screen
The streak might be a step too far
Ip4 looks nice but not fussed about the OS and I don't like censorship
NOT iPhone 4!
iPhone 4 is one peace of big ****. It can't even keep its connection to mobile network.!? wtf! lol
Dell streak is a really good phone but I personally would love to have a HTC Evo 4G...
And plus it is ready for Gingerbread...
Dell sounds like a good option. I personally won't buy a HTC next time and won't recommend HTC to anyone since what happened to my phone after their recent firmware update. It took so long to roll out and then almost bricked my phone making me to switch back to the old version of firmware. No decent phone manufacturer will send out an update that fails so bad without any support.
the best advice I can give to go a place where you can try these devices, and than make a decision.
I'm sure I will buy a Desire after the Hero. I tried and I love it, big screen, fast, has 2.2 soon and very responsive : )

[Q] Display problem

Hey guys,
I'm having a problem with the display on my G2. I spotted a grey spot on my display. It's not very big and can only be seen if your in a dark room and the display is black. Sounds really like a minor issue, but now that I know it's there, it just bugs me.
Any of you guys have an idea what this is, or having the same problem? (Just test it out)
I'm not sure if this is reason enough to get it replaced

You can't see it very well, because I just don't have a better way of taking a picture from it than my Nexus 7

I won't look on mine... because if it's something common I will have it for sure.. and I know myself it will bug me till the end ...
Anyway looks like glue residue or something in that matter, in case you do not have a screen protector.
If you can prove it to the store, get it replaced... This is a flagship device. Prestige one... Even minor appearance problems shouldn't be there.
Personally if I had it there and as you say, you can see it, get it replaced, and you never know if this i snot a beginning of something bigger? What if your screen falls off? (bit paranoid, but you know what to say in the store if they gonna give you hardtime )
Get it replaced! A $500 phone should not have that.
Sent from my JEE TWO
yeah, get it replaced if you want to. But i have a dead pixel on my G2, it bugged me for about a week, but ive forgotten its even there now haha
