is the new tmobile g2 also called the desire?
The G2 is the same hardware as the HTC Desire Z, which is different than the HTC Desire and HTC Desire HD.
The G2 runs without HTC Sense, whereas the Desire Z has a new version of HTC Sense.
They probably also use different cellular frequencies, but I'm not sure.
Edit: see this thread, there are more differences: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793338

So buying my new G2 was bitter sweet. I thought since it was an Htc, it would have the same capabilities as my hero. To my surprise it dosen't have the same functionality. I went to HTC website and see they have the Desire which is the same as my phone except for it has HTC Sense capabilities.
You have a non-Sense phone, the G2.
There is a dedicated forum for the G2, as this is the hero forum. You will need to follow developments over there to see if it's every possible to use a sense ROM on it.
Hi guys my Mrs got a new Desire Z today and the bluetooth name on the phone was HTC Vision. Just pointing it out, I thought it was interesting. Specailly as it has HTC Sence and all the other HTC goodies loaded. I wonder at which point the phones become g2 and desire z's.
Yep i noticed this too
And if you sync with exchange using the HTC mail app, the device name is htcvision (not something you can change).
This was the code name i believe..
Vision was the HTC codename for internal use. Since release it has been rebranded as the DZ and G2. Much like how the touch pro 2 was codenamed the rhodium.

Yes - my TyTN II was codenamed "Kaiser"
What's also weid is when you are on a call, you can press a button to change between audio through the phone, speakerphone or any bluetooth headsets..
for the phone itself, it's listed as "HTC Vision" - and you can't change that
The ROMs for the G2 and DZ both have "Vision" in their names too. They are both the "HTC Vision" phones. The G2 and DZ are identical apart from different radio bands and running different stock ROMs.
Can any HTC Hero roms perform the new fastboot feature like on the Desire HD and Z? My friend saw my rooted Desire do it and wondered if he could get a similar feature on his phone.
htc are bringing out the thunderbolt for you guys in the U.S,basicly the phone itself is a lot like our Desire HD however could the rom itself have some improvements,extra features,could it be lighter than Desire HD,will it be Faster Than Desire HD,the other thing is it might be better for those who have the TMOUS HD2.the guys over on the Evo section have been trying it so is a port possible,Theres only one way to find out,port it

Don't know about version numbers, but at MWC 10, they said that we got the new version of HTC Sense, which was then: the 2nd version.
And then we got Froyo which updated it to some stuff, I'm NOT SURE, but we may be on par with the Gratia's/Aria's Froyo: an update to the second version of HTC Sense.
Like I already said, I don't know the numbers, but there's also the Sense with the Desire Z and Desire HD, as well with all the new phones that just came out at CES. So the third version? Maybe that.
And then the new Facebook phones and the newer versions of last year's high-end phones got updated at MWC 11 this year, so I'm guessing that's a new version of Sense as well. Flyer also got a remixed version for its software.
The latest few phones (including Desire HD) are "Sense 3" IIRC, not sure what version Legend has.
i checked my htc sense version via the app manager and it shows v1.00. I cant understand. My phone is on 2.2 , build 3.15. What are the latest features of the new sense ?
Htcsense.com is one of the main features I used on my DHD
