Well it's the french speaking part of Belgium
Darn, FNAC has already listed that device in their database, but at tremendous prices !!!
699€ bulk
499€ with an Orange Origami Star 3h contract
399€ with an Bouygues Neo.2 3h contract
they don't have it in stock. They hope to have the 9 in stock tomorow
**** man.. its too costly.. and I wonder if i can get engish version!!
The WWE model I ordered got delivered today (in Belgium) while the NL and FR version should arive at the distributor on friday, arive here on monday/thuesday.
They only initially stocked 5 of each but the WWE's were out of stock as soon as they got in stock
are you talking about btrade.be because it seems that they don't sale NL or WWE version ???
Sorry for my noob question, but I am new in the WM-Phone sector.
I want to know if it is possible to put a WWE ROM(so far I understand this is the english version) on my ordered HTC TOuch HD (which has a german ROM on it)?
Thanks in advance and sorry for the somehow stupid question.

With my collegues TTYNII I accidentaly flashed the WWE Windows Mobile 6.1 version on his without knowing it originaly was an NL version and it had no problem with that.
I wouldn't take my word for it though, there are many more knowledgeable people on the WM device subject on these boards.

As long as the ROM is for Touch HD you should have no problem flashing other language ROMs. If your device is branded you might need Hard-SPL though, read the XDA wikis for info (or stickies in Diamond section, it works the same way)
Thats good news! So beeing a fact that my HD wont be branded I wont have any problems to flash new HT ROMS on it. Excellent!
Does somebody know if there are improoved ROM's out there for the HD?
Thanks for the infos! Ur great, this forum is great!
how can you tell if the phone comes in wwe.
most of french mobile shop located on paris say that it's going to be officially release for 1st week of december..
what a joke..
I have waited for diamond for being release, and then the touch pro and now the HD..
almost 6 month of waiting...
and in december htc gonna release something better and tasty than the HD..
stupid me

LOL... You don't understand my "Be carreful".... I am not sure that they have stock. Why ? Because this morning (at 10) they didn't have stock.....
What still worries me is that in the Netherlands, you can get the phone for free if you take a 35€ contract for 24 months, and in France I couldn't find it for less than 399€ with a at least 45€ contract for 24 months...
it's so rubbish !!!
Not sure if this is old or new news....new firmware version released today
http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=854
An updated ROM is now available for HTC HD2 customers to download. As always, HTC is committed to providing customers with the best possible mobile experience.
Installation Instructions:
ROM Version: 1.66.707.1
Improved Functions:
Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers fast and reliable SMS messaging.

wow i hope this is a good firmware... i will be waiting for the Hong Kong english one...

F5'ing on the Norwegian site right now
i have a standard unbranded deveice, and its saying the updates not suitable for mine?
Change-log? Or did you notice any significant changes?
I need it in German, HTC, pleeeeease!!
Just wanted to set up my device this weekend from the bottom up. Now I'm gonna wait for the update.

South East Asia ? Is this a WWE ROM ?
First line reads... "Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers fast and reliable SMS messaging.".... Good luck to you all - hope it resolves your issues everyone.
( No doubt in 1 hours time someone will come online and say "My sms got stuck in the outbox again...." )
Anyone else got it in their region? I'm browsing regions, but SEA region seems to be the only one with it right now
not in UK yet...

I concur - just checked Europe and UK. We score "nil pwa", as they say in the Eurovision Song Contest. Apologies to non-Europeans, if you don't understand, google it!
Please tell me it fixed more than just the SMS issue...... i'm on the edge of this or a milestone and so far, the Milestone seems the less buggy!
oooohhhh!!! this could be the day ladies and gents ..still nothing on the UK site tho.
don't expect too much hahah If the previous SMS patches are of any indication, we might be disappointed.
The old 1.48 has been pulled from the danish HTC site... It might be a sign of better things to come
Edit: Now the 1.48 is up again.... Weird...
Does anyone know which version of WM it has, I would persume it would be a good time to go 6.5.3

It won't upgrade the OS. They'd certainly not wrap up the "6.6" release (as they're now referring to it) by saying it fixes some SMS problems.
Expect a fanfare and ticker-tape parade when they up the OS.
Thai ROM
There is now ROM version 1.66 available for thai region. If anyone here has a thai region phone, could you please download the new ROM and upload it to HCTpedia repository for official ROMs. I want to try this ROM, but it can only be downloaded using a serial number from a thai region phone, and I don't have that.
I don't know if HTC are following xda-developers.com threads, but I just felt like thank them.
With the 1.66 release, the phone works like a charm for me, and seems to do that for many other peoples as well.
Ok, the 1.66 ROM is the one HD2 should be delivered with in the first place, but now it's here, and it works.
It's easy to compare the stability (specially on a new phone) to Apple iPhones, which kinda works nice out of the box. But there are so many reasons of that. Apple have ONE device, which they have full control over.
Enough about Apple. I think HTC has done a great job with HD2, and now that it works as it should, i'm really excited to see whats next. If it's rumors about WM7 is true, and MS will only let devices with HD2 type specs run it, they might as well get interesting developers making great software and games. We know it's possible, we've already seen some nice OpenGL 2.0 games running on WM devices. We now only need Microsoft to build a decent Marketplace, and get devs on their team.
Htc, Great job!
I also have to say, that my phone worked brilliantly with SEA-WWE-ROM. But until HTC doesn't give out the upgrade to us in Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands and Poland, Czech Republik, Romania, Hong Kong, aso. I won't say "thank you HTC!"...

This is true, but HTC are not alone in releasing technology (software or hardware) to market before it's been fully tested, too many companies rely upon end-users to do the final beta testing. I guess that's commercial pressure for you?
Anyway, 1.66 is definitely a very complete ROM and will probably be the last major release prior to the much anticipated Windows 7.
I've always been happy with my HD2 as it's never given me any great problems, but with this release it's now a very, very good smartphone!

There's a problem with that synopsis. the last message is being displayed in the 'Reply' text entry box, which means you have to delete it letter by letter before you can type your response.
I'm seeing three improvements in 1.66;
1. Keyboard is finally useable, I'm not making so many mistakes now, looks like the sensitivity has been dialled down a bit
2. Responsiveness after switching on and sliding to unlock - thus far no 20 second freeze-ups
3. They've put the task manager into the start menu
So far so good!
and the dutch version is still not availlable yet :-(

I did not know that. I have the sms hotfix with the new sms app version and for me it only selects the last sms. It does not include it in the reply itself. Maybe check some options...

For me, it selects the last message, as you described (which I don't actually like, but hey-ho), but it's not included in the reply. I just tap in the textbox and the message is no longer hilighted.
I've not heard of any options to include the original message in a reply for SMS ever! It'd be a pretty dumb thing to do really, wouldn't it. Has anyone else had this issue?

That's strange. I believe the default behaviour is to hilight the message you're replying to (the one you tapped in the sense message tab).
Anyway, that's off topic.
Big thumbs up for this ROM, so I'm in agreement with the OP on that.
"Thank you HTC"?? -Give me a f'ing brake man...
No way HTC deserves any thanks or credits!! Haha.. For what would that be?? For making their freaking device being able to send SMS more than 3 months into the launch? Not to mention a bunch of other bugs/instability issues and god knows how many new ones may surface with 1.66 (crossing my fingers that's not the case).
And the customer service and updates pipeline isn't much better. Releasing hotfix after hotfix, taking them off again quickly after finding out they screw up more things than they fix. And all with no info to the user about what's going on and what they try to fix other than a nothing-saying pathetic description like "This update will make your life more bright by letting you keep in touch with your loved ones at any time of the day bla bla bla...". HD2 is a device with some impressive hardware specs and HTC definitely deserves some points for that, but in my opinion that's all...
I think if there is any message that should go through to HTC, this should be it!

I'm still happy.
They used a long time for getting it right, BUT they tired many times. They have released two hot fixes, and now a new ROM. I believe the reason for sms stucs were complex, since it was so sporadic who got the issue.
Every time i've mailed HTC customer service, i've got an answer the same day.
I still salute HTC!

Hi, I've just received the newest OTA update from HTC, the new version is 1.83.415.4. I was wondering does anyone know what new features or fixes this update provides compared to my older 1.32.405.6.
First thing I've noticed is the phone is lot quicker. Seriously, I cant believe how much quicker my phone is now.
Cheers..

judging from the time shown in the screenshot and a world time zone map i think he is in brazil somewhere, maybe east coast?
or greenland.... lol.
Judging from the size I'd say it's a new version of the last updated, 1.72. On a rooted stock ROM the only update I'm offered is to 1.32.405.6 from 1.32.405.3 that's in the UK.
No update yet from the Philippines with a unit from Europe.
Cheers from my DHD.

currently there are only 7 languages available... is there any way to implement more in a future release (custom rom or patch)? i' ve read somewhere that this is a google subject and acer can't do anything about it... (i think a user send an email to acer about it and they answered that)...
honeycomb should have more languages till now...

The problem is easily solved through market for the keyboard languages.
But the issue of the honeycomb ui, can' t be solved with an application...
By the way, multiling is a nice one, i use smart keyboard but the layout isn' t satisfying in landscape mode, so i'll give it a try...
The keyboard is not the problem... the keyboard has a lot more languages than the Ui.
I´m going to make a call to the norwegian support tomorrow and ask about more languages and especially Norwegian for my part.
I got mine from Scotland a week ago, and hoped it had all the languages as i´m used to from my HTC phones. But no such luck.
This device has now been released in Norway, and i hope they can give me the rom.

I have now spoken to the Norwegian support team and they say that as long as I have bought this outside of scandinavia, it will not support other languages. And they have not got any rom to give out. So I can eathe wait for an official scandinavian update or install what he called a "unlisenced" program/rom from some developer. If I installed from a developer it would not take away the warranty on the product only take away the support on the program.
So i hope someone can take a scandinavian A500 and get out the rom and post it here so we can get support on more languages. The scandivavian models usually have a lot of languages installed.

I doubt it that there is a scandinavian version because acer mentioned that it is google's issue the language support. I bought it here in Greece and installed there are: english, french, german, italian, spanish and two chinese i think.
I'm surprised by the fact that they advised you to install a custom rom... custom rom demands root, root means hacking, can harm the device (if you perform overclock for example or bricking the device if something goes wrong) in any way the warranty is over... as far as i know from my mobile phones so far, there isn't such "dual" warranty, one for software and one for hardware simply because software (especially custom) can damage hardware...

I totally agree with what you are saying. I was a bit shocked that he sugested what he did. I will contact one of the stores here in Norway that sells the A500 and ask if there is Norwegian language on the one they sell. If it is that's great....if its not...then Google have some job to do on the gingerbread. We can't live with just those languages.
Edit: Just got of the phone with a norwegian retaler and they could confirm that the A500 that they sell do have Norwegian UI.
One of the staff had just bought one himself, any could confirm it.

Hi,
I have the same issue. I bought a Iconia outside of scandinavia. I would like the swedish ui.
The thing is that i got a System update message yesterday. I havn't installed it yet. It doesn't say what it updates just that it is a 1.126.03 version.
I guess this is the build number. I currently have the 1.016.03. I wounder what version the scandinavian models have.
Language pack CD ?
Same problem here...only 1 language available...
I called ACER support BNL and they told me that it is possible for retailers to order a language pack CD from Packard-Bell.
Next week i will try to get this so called language pack CD.
If not...maybe somebody else can try to get it ?
Greeting to you all...
