If you dont like your $400 laggy and choppy phone then stop whining about it and throw it away, i have had 4 of them and just smashed my last one against the wall cause im so fed up with these stupid ass phones, they suck balls!!!! Scrolling is choppy as **** and in order to text when you have messages in your inbox you have to type like 1 letter per 15seconds and screens would always jump back in forth everyonce in a while, mine have never froze thank god or elase it would have been smashed long ago, HTC needs to learn how to make their **** run smooth and effecient before they release this ****. So later fellas and good luck with these junk phones, as for me im going to ATT or Verizon on the 24th to get the new Iphone, a phone that actually will work like it should.
lol, I'm not smashing mine, just selling it.

Was there really a need for this post? Sounds like this phone is too smart for you and you don't want to have to put any effort into it. Oh well, oh and you're an idiot for smashing your phone (if you really did).
Tantrums are hilarious!

Verizon will not be getting the iPhone on the 24th so it looks lik your getting AT&T but fare well we didn't need you hear anyways.
I have a question.
If he's immature for smashing his HD2 because he didn't know how to use it, am I immature for throwing my iPhone 2G against a wall, even though I knew how to use it? I somehow get the feeling that this crowd would understand if it were an iPhone. =D
More on topic, I don't know how you had the problems you did, even the stock ROM is fine. This thing is blazing fast, and I haven't had a real problem with it yet.
Wow. Well its obvious you didnt really try to fix anything. All the problems you described have solutions. All I did was put a cooked rom on my hd2 and everything has been fine for months now. You make it seem like AT&T is an upcoming. Enjoy paying the ridiculous data charges now that they have decided to end the unlimited data. And smashing the phone? You couldve sold it. Just my 2 cents.
LiePhone
Dude look at the specs, new iPhone is gonna suck! I'd much rather use a million tweaks to get my HD2 to kick ass than get an iPhone and watch all the new phones pass it by...
Doubt your dumb ass is reading this thread, but glad to see you go for a inferior phone. The end-users here are not the every day tech support junkies of TMOUSA, they know how to make this HD2 sing loudly.
I would have sold it on eBay, but then either your stupid, or rich.
Love my HD2
With you gone, that's more bandwidth for me ! ^_^
I have had my hd2 for almost two weeks and have had none of the problems this person describes. Bsb tweaks and Cookies home tab are all I have done to it and it runs like a top. So have fun with your iphone...
ok now i c what an average person wants...um a gyroscope n a new app called face time lol....so here is the deal ppl who buy a SMARTphone expects it to do everything exactly the way they want it to ....one key note SMARTPHONE this means its not a regular phone its for ppl who 1) have brain power 2) use that power n understand there surroundings 3)accept its boundaries 4)definitely dont complain when u bought a phone that has the same aesthetics from its first generation but with improved specs aka iphone 4
I love my HD2
No problem here, mine's a keeper.
this is how u sound
htc hd2 - magnum condom
you - a very small ****
when u put them together ...ur not qualified for the job
lol RAGE QUIT an QQ but yeah this guys just a spoiled brat that he actually threw the phone against the wall and not sold it lol wow you have openly posted in this forum and now every one that loves this phone will now continue to tear slowly at you lol good job
Ok, Now that a brave soul has torn down his phone and confirmed the fact that our memory is there, I think that this must be the greatest device I have owned so far.
I loved my Nexus One. When I bought a Vibrant and lost the Nexus, I was really upset because I had to keep that piece of junk. (I still have it). Then I saw the G2 and had to have it.
The build quality is solid. My hinge is fine, besides I don't text while hanging from my tail so even if it was a bit loose I think I would be OK. The reception is about 3x better than my Vibrant and the wifi works at school, something neither of the two Vibrants I have had did.
Having Froyo again makes me so happy, and the fact that Cyanogen is getting one and will probably personally put CM6 on it, will make it even better.
Since we have so many complaint threads, I just figured we should have at least one thread that talked about the good things this device has to offer.
I hope to have this phone until I am ready for an upgrade.
I couldn't of said it any better homie. There's too many folks around here complaining instead of enjoying the damn phone! Now that its been confirmed that we do indeed have 4gb that makes having this phone an even better feeling.
Here's hoping for a permanent root asap! Id like to thank those who are working hard to root the G2! Good ups to y'all!

I second this.
I love my phone. Hinge isnt a big deal but if i get told it is a defect from tmo or HTC then i will replace it for a new one.
Besides this I love it. The keyboard is awesome, Music is nice and loud on the speaker, reception hasnt been a problem and I have even had some reception in train stations in NYC. The pics can be amazing in the right lighting and the vids are amazing period.
Only negative for me has to be the in-call volume... It's type low, but other then this the phone is perfect and I will be keeping this for a very long time.
You know, I hadn't made a single phone call since getting my phone. I'm more a text, email, and Gtalk kind of person. So I just called 1-800-Goog-411 to test the in-call volume. At max volume it was uncomfortably loud! I don't see how anyone can complain that the volume for calls is low.
I had a G1 and it was a great phone. Although I always felt that the G1 was a little slow.
I did have to "reboot bootloader" after getting some FCs in every app. I was downloading so many apps Im not sure which one caused it =)
I got the G2 a little worried about the 800MHz processor on the G2. But omg the phone is silly fast. This android phone is a complete joy to use. If you have any doubts about the G2 and you had/have the G1. The doubts are unfounded. The phone is amazing. I love everything about it. No problems with the hinge. Battery power is great too and I'm on it all the time. Everyone that has held it, compliments the weight and feel of the phone.
The HSPA is so fast.
I'm a lucky one to not get a loose hinge but even if I did I never txt upside down anyway lol. I never really cared for the memory as id never use up 4GB lol but its just nice to get what was promised to you and see now we do have it its a nice feeling. I freakin love the sound quality on this phone. The heavy weight from the phone and how it feels oh so nice and metaly. Anyone who's played with a Vibrant can tell u just how cheap that thing feels. Glad to be back on stock Android and glad to have bought this phone. I hope everyone else feels the same way. If not hey, u got buyers remorse haha jk jk
fRom Snugs G2 ^.^
Looks like a lot of us are coming from the G1. It was a great phone and really got me hooked to the smartphone scene. But, I was soooooo ready for an update after a few years and the G2 has delievered! The speed and visuals alone are key traits for me.
I really dont think there is a hinge problem at all. The video with this alleged hinge problrm is no different than mine or anyone elses. If you hold the phone upside down by just the keyboard at the right angle it will slide down. the screen bezel is metal and heavy. just gravity. its a really cool design, imo. way better and much more smooth than any other qwerty kb phone I have had.
I love g2 too coming from i4. Battery was running low on couple of days but after couple of cycles it seems its getting better. The only complain I have that I am not able to sync my hotmail email.

I am glad the ***** fest has ended. maybe we can focus on important stuff now like enjoying the phone? We really need some help with root...
I'm not really sure what to with it since this backup partition is a first for me and most others. Unless we think of something super inventive.... we may have to wait on an ota? The general idea now is that froyo can only recognize 2.5 GB (well 2 really but I'm counting the the other part as radio, bootloader, spl, etc.) and/or a mirror image backup of default system on hidden partition. No one here really knows much about rooting exploits so we are all learning as we go. Just a suggestion, take a night off... enjoy your phone and help us out tomorrow, please. Like I said, no real experts here so don't feel intimidated or like you can't help because you know nothing. Those that have made roms/themes/or mods are especially needed because at least we have a background in some android/linux stuff so we're gonna have to lead the way. Also if you are new and know little, just read through the root thread and look at the past exploits that are linked in the thread to give you a general idea on what to do and how to do it. I can tell you that no one if gonna magically appear and root the phone for us. We can't continue to count on the big developers who don't have this phone and have a 100 other projects going. I wish it was that easy but I just don't see it happening. You can ask for help from some one if they are willing but its unlikely we will get more than just a few suggestions. There are folks keeping an eye on the root thread but it seems like they don't want to intervene for some reason. I think it's something like letting your kid find out how to ride a bike after you just take the training wheels off. you just have to let him do it on his own. he'll figure it out eventually. Or I could be wrong and they are all burnt out from the BBQ still. Plus, the phone's just getting released. some have waited on the retail stores to get theirs. We'll get there soon enough! I'm just glad y'all can enjoy your phones finally. I was mad the first night too but figured that it was hidden somewhere and started to enjoy the G2. This thing is so damn fast! I did get rid of the 3D drawer though. It was too tricky for me to scroll down sometimes. I'm loving the new gmail, a2sd, and other 2.2 features. The speaker sounds great too, nice and loud... also the trackpad light is cool too. the graphics on the games and lwp run so smoothly compared to my MTS. oh, the 2.2 market is freaking badass. nice to be able to see all those apps we couldn't before. the multitasking/process manager is so much better than 2.1, it's just crazy. I could keep on going but this post is long enough, hahaha! I hope to see you all in the development section soon! enjoy!
I wish I could help with root but ima dumbass with code and I don't have much free time =( hell the only roots ive done haver been 1 click roots lool but ill help out anyway I can =)

Man.... I'm jealous. I never was lucky enough to be able to use the one click root. The easiest for me was the G1 and most difficult was the MTS.
This is my first transition from WM and I dont think I could of made a better choice. Best phone I could of ever decided to buy.
Any ex Nexus One users? Or is it a little too early for an upgrade (or downgrade)?
There are several former nexus one users around that are really digging the phone. I can't wait to get mine tomorrow.

If you did hang from your tail, the loose hinge wouldn't actually affect you, it would benefit you as the phone itself is upside down.
Hey hey XDA. Ive been lurking for a good year or two and have never really had a need to post, but I felt it might be useful to share my experiences with the Omnia7. I got it almost after launch in the UK and was...slightly unimpressed. My love for the handset grew, however the technical issues also started to swell. Firstly I experienced the unresponsive home button issue and had the handset replaced twice due to screen issues. Secondly, the frame started to crack recently and trust me, I dont do anything with my handset to cause it to crack...nor do I bash it around causing the paint to flake off!a
Anyway, the final straw was yesterdays 'black screen of death'. I was using it as normal and put it in my pocket after class. I am walking home and go to check to the time only to find that it wouldnt respond. This is followed by a random reboot followed by a series of white lines flashing across the top of the screen...followed again by a load of pink and green dots appearing and disappearing. The phone reboots again and then works...only to repeat again. Add to this an OS which has yet to be given any sort of new lease of life beyond a bit of copy and paste...well...im saddened.
Orange were kind enough to send another one today but having reviewed my options, im afraid to say im jumping ship back to Android. I was under the impression that the Omnia 7 was a well built handset with a solid OS...but that doesnt seem to be the case. That or im incredibly unlucky. :/ Phone is heading straight to Amazon Marketplace in its shiny new packaging!
Anyway, thanks for providing lurker over here with some amazing advice. Just my two cents! Adios.
Sorry to hear that it didn't work out for you.
How much are you selling it for?

Yeah it sucks that ive had zero luck with it. On a brighter note, im finally investing in an HD2 purely so I can get back to tinkering...so I might end up back with WP7, albeit in a modded form!
Ive listed it for £300 GBP. Its a bit less than what most people are selling them for however I want to sell quickly in order to get another phone. Im currently using a ghetto as all hell nokia and it pains me to use it :/

Sorry, but see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929460
The unresponsive issue is something people are confused about and think it's a handset problem. It's not, it's not responsive for a reason and that's when the sensor is covered! See the thread.
As for the other issues, I agree, that's crap luck by the sounds of it.
And dude, I agree with the poor effort from Microsoft regarding updates and copy and paste. I mean it's like they have ignored the competition and the things people really need on their devices. Copy and paste shouldn't be an update, it should of been there in the first place!
But with time, I believe WP7 will stand strong.
well i was in a law suite with HTC for the issues i was having with my HTC Desire issues so i received a new desire hd for all the issues i went through even though HTC took a year to settle lol
so do you guys like your Desire HD
Congrats on getting the HD. Your going to love it. Im delighted with my one.
I got mine on 2 days back. I am loving it with Gingerbread sense.
Sent from my Desire HD
congratz.. now go to DHD dev and flash the gingerbread rom on it..
+1, then you never look back on your desire anymore
lol that statement is so true i cant put this phone down, lol as well i have not touched my iphone in days my buddy has a iphone 4 as well and he was blown away by the htc Desire HD i know the GPU is not all that but what i use it for it is amazing he just fell in love now he wants one
I must be the only person who doesn't love this phone, its not that I dont like it, its just that there seems to be a lot of issues.
I got mine on Saturday, it was a Vodafone UK upgrade, and coming to this from the orginal Desire has been a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT
The one thing I noticed as soonas I took it out of the box was the seemingly sharp edges around the screen area, the phone itself is sluggish and the screen can be very non-responsive, I cant for the love of all thats almighty get the HTCSense to work - in fact cant even create an account, cant download Locations, the GPS wont work because it says it cant find the satellites even when I'm outside, and the list just goes on.
I loved my original Desire and chose it over the iPhone 4 and thought this would be the next step up buy boy was I wrong. Chances are Ive just got a bad one, but its hasnt half dented my confidence in what I originally thought was a great brand.
As I said, I had the phone as an Vodafone upgrade through Phones4U in the UK. Are they likely to give me a new phone or will they make me have this one repaired? To be honest, I dont want it repaired I just want a new one.
Suggestions please
It sounds like you got a bad one. You could try a factory reset and see if that speeds it back up to normal. If not I would suggest they change it for you. There are plenty of YouTube videos showing the normal (non-sluggish) speed. If your one doesn't match - ask them why it is so slow.
My 2 cents.
I would suggest the same as Grant Barker, sounds like you've got some kind of issuse!
Factory reset is always an good idea! ;-)

IANAL but distance selling reg's should cover this, you are entitled to reject the phone within seven days, personally I would speak with Phones4U as i have found them very helpfull in the past if no joy there try speaking to vodafone aswell.
But it does sound like you've recieved a lemon, even if I did find SENSE slowed the phone down over vanilla android.
1st thing I tried was a factory reset and to be honest, I think its made a blind bit of difference.
Thanks for the heads up people, I'll let you know how this progresses.
you will have to contact the company and explain to them u have a DOA

HI hi hi
I'm just on to leav HTC at all.
I've order DHD from ....dialaphone.com(phone4u)
Second day I just ask to cancel my order for poor quality of finish AL-housing and plastic sim cover was just realy beadly made!!!
After canceling it I've order HD7 from dialaphone.com(phone4u)
Same sh.t realy same sh.t.
Baterry cover, plastic frame with scratches and in the middle of screen big looks like somone try to pull it off.You can see parts inside!!!
Was canceled !!!
No HTC in near future! Nono!
Is this fault of HTC TW? or Phone4u UK is selling some sort of 2nd quality ****?
Welcome from the owners of SHD.
Sense is really nice, I think.
With other Nosense Rom's i took less pleasure to use my phone.
In addition, drivers included in HTC sense, allow the phone to be much less energy.
Otherwise, you must hack the kernel.

text message- how do i forward a recieved message? i cant find the option anywhere ?
is there a option to get up all the text boxes? ie: sent box, recieved,drefts etc..
locked- is there any other way to wake the phone up apart from the on/off button at the top? i have problems with this now as i bought a gel cover & its makes it harder to use with 1 hand !
glowing buttons- is there anyway to have the 4 buttons (home,menu etc ) on the bottom glow when the phone is in use? these are impossible to see in low light & i am sick of hitting the wrong 1 !!
apps- is there a app for viewing tv on the wildfire? bbc i player , catch up tv etc, i looked on the net & skyfire seems to be the app but when i search the market its not there ?
anyway , that will do for now lol, im sure i will be back with more stupid questions soon lol, i quite like the feel of this phone although i was very dissapointed that it will not do video calls as this is a feature i used quite a lot on my old phone as i work away & chatted to the grandkids & they showed me stuff they had made at school etc, its my own fault for not checking i suppose, i just assumed, if old phones can do it surely the cutting edge phones can, i was wrong lol, anyway thanks for letting me drone on !!!

Yeah....what is your point?? I think your argument is with the UK networks, which in that instance, has no place here

Just search through previous posts and your realize why this was posted here. Developed thought is not a strong point for Ven2112.

Just a Noob, probs just doesn't realise that this kind of issue should be in the XDA general section and not in any particular phone section, be gentle

:good:
they were just questions about a new phone i had purchased, i don't do gizmos & thought i would just ask on here as there were a lot of people on who knew what they were talking about, after all i thought that was the idea of these forums to pass on knowledge & if you don't ask you don't learn, obviously i was wrong as there's people like you who know it all, anyway i see from your profile that your a usa marine, i worked along side them many years ago when i was a engineer in the royal navy & if i remember correctly when i said “good morning “ to them they were stuck for a answer! so i fully understand why you get excited over a new screen protector, anyway thanks for your invaluable help & i think i will just leave it there! :laugh:
