Good bye HD2, it's been hell and back.

For the last 6 weeks I've had nothing but headaches between two T-Mobile HD2's. I bought on release date, 3 days later I was better off tossing it in the freezer because all it would do is freeze. It also lagged, was buggy and a glitch fest. Apps didnt work, screen didn't work, Sense UI wouldn't load ugh, I can go on. I got another HD2, within the first 7 hours it froze on me too lol. It also had the same issues as the first.
I just want to thank everybody here in the forums for helping solve my phone issue, as I've research and tried everything but they did not help. Also thanks to HTC and T-mobile.com for putting up with my madness lol, although T-Mobile allowed me to get my OG plan back (and keep my HD2), I can now leave T-Mobile (im under no contract) to get something else (leaning towards the Evo 4G over the Nexus One).
P.S. I hope T-Mobile gets there act together and releases a patch ASAP, it sucks that such a incredible piece of hardware is having a lot of problematic issues.

that's weird,I assume you were on stock rom which is why u got the issues...custom roms eliminate those issues u have on stock rom.

i dont think it's so much the stock ROM, mine's been wonderful with the stock ROM. it's more that he was unlucky enough to be one of the first bozos who got the phone with version 2.10. for me, rom version 2.11 has been nothing but bliss, so much that after trying several custom roms i went back to my stock 2.11 because, compared to it, all custom roms suck (winmo devs aren't as good as android devs).
there's a thread with stock roms and 2.11 is usable even without hspl (i kept hspl out of personal preference and I'll try to make my own build). good luck to you anyway. i suggest you get a nexus one and flash desire rom (or heck, get a desire)

If it is freezing, the first setting I would check is
Start > Settings > Menu > All Settings > Today > Items
The setting "Today timeout", at the bottom left hand corner,
should not be selected/enabled.

why shouldnt the today timeout be selected,just out of curiosity?

i just unchecked it so i'll wait and see if anything improves (i have minor freezing/lag with calls and sms sometimes)...but im also curious what this fixes

I think its more of a "You don't know how to use such a powerful piece of equipment!!!" There is nothing wrong with your phone, its just easier for you to believe your own lie when you return it by posting for others to read what horse doo doo it is,...Like for example, "Transformers missing do to a Faulty sdCARD"...sorry I have full reset my phone several times just to erase everything and removed my sdCard with no Data loss issues, I agree with the other guy, I think its you and you should properly close your apps before claiming its your phone...Ever heard P.E.B.K.A.C before?...Problem Exists Between Keyboard and Chair!!! That's you!!! Grow up!! These Phones Rock, apple fan boys will do anything to make a solid product look bad.

My phone has frozen at least once every day it seems like. But I think i solved the battery issue. I bought a second battery!! Haha, I am so S M R T! At any rate, I love this phone for the big screen and fast internet. I just wish I had a way to get mp4's to watch. Or that more books on barnes and noble were free.

LOL, Less talking, more listening kid.
It's obvious you have no idea what your talking about and lacking the intelligence to do so. I have plenty of videos posted here showing how horrible my two devices are (do a search). It's HTC Sense UI that is the problem, not WM6.5. I've shown HTC reps and T-Mobile reps my phone, they've test and diagnosis it, and if it wasn't for me, there wouldn't be a update on the way. So keep talking ****, that's why your teeth are brown.
Dude is soo anal because I gave up on my HD2, lol. If you like yours that fine but don't cry me a river because I didn't like mine lmao!

I was with you till you said the bolded
how solipsistic can you be to assume that based on your pathetic user experience that tmobile and htc would generate an entire updated rom to suit just your needs??? Give me a break dude...
this is xdas not fan pandering to overly zealous delusional users that are so far up steve jobs craw they can see his prostate...I mean seriously what the frick???
And I admit for 80% of errors it is brought on by the user and not the device itself. The hd2 has its flaws. All phones do...but for most users they are iphone/android converts expecting the same experience without doing any research on htc and windows mobile. And to those users, yes I say they do deserve any error they get. Why? You didn't take time to learn about your device. This isn't something as simple as a flashlight where you press the on button and something magically happens. Its a pocket pc and that means a lot...

Closing this thread as it is turning into a bashing session. Lets keep it civil.

Just Received HTC Desire HD

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.

Well I would assume working on your speaking or getting a less defective Atrix would work just as well. Not like anyone else has a probably with the voice quality...

I had the same problem. I turned off the noise cancellation feature and that fixed it. The noise cancellation feature sounds like it has a gate with a threshold that's too high so it cuts off the beginning and end of words.

Yea I got the inspire sorry for not being specific. Well I talked to the guy at best buy and he looked at me like I just wanted a new phone. But I'm pretty sure I know how to hold a phone and even when my phone was two inches away from my mouth when I was on speaker and people are still complaining I don't think that it's the position I'm holding it. It's not user error and now all of the sudden after I got the inspire people have been commenting on how they can hear me for the first time since I got my atrix. They didn't know I got a new phone. I'm not trying to say the atrix was a bad device it just didn't suit my needs as well as I liked. And I didn't know how I was going to be able to prove that my atrix had bad call quality to the best buy guy since it's a qualitative example.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

you probably coulda called him and walked across the store to show that your mic was bad, nobody has any problems understanding me whatsoever.

I've had complaints on my phone as well... they say it sounds muffled basically. I'll see if things get better with noise cancellation off. That's one of the few complaints I've had about the phone actually. I never really had much concern over call quality, but it's been mentioned enough times that I think it's a reasonable issue.

If you didn't think you could convince the BB guy with a phone call and then you state that the Atrix didn't suit your needs, it tells me that you really did just want a new phone. If you didn't like the device just be honest about it. If you liked the device you would have exchanged it for a different Atrix as defective.

My phone sounded muffled on the first day of owning it. Now I have no complaints, not sure if it was a setting or what.

I had the same issues with speakerphone, but after I turned off noise cancellation everything was better.

Actually a lot of people have issues with the voice quality. I've gone through 3 atrixes and still have the same issue, even the employees at the ATT store notice it. Motorola said they were working on it and some people have had some luck exchanging the phone, others have not been so lucky. The issue is only with the mic in the phone, if you use bluetooth then voice quality is crystal clear.

That feature was one of the key selling points of buying the phone, i rang and questioned HTC about this very matter months ago.
I said what they are doing is false advertising if they cannot supply a service they are advertising, i was also pissed about the fact you pay £550 for a phone and dont get supplied the wireless DNLA link they shown in the almost 9 minute ad on their site.
UK that kind of stuff goes in the consumers favour they will and should act upon it!

That looks pretty amazing. It'll work if you're fast enough and the mugger isn't wise enough to factory reset the phone.
How about HTCsense.com? If you factory reset your phone will the ability to track it be gone too? I'd expect it to track it through IMEI or something so it couldn't be disabled so easily. And will it turn on GPS and data on automatically? What if the mugger changes the sim card? What if the battery runs out?
--
To OP, good luck getting your phone back! Be sure to try everything here, including the complaint to HTC!

HTC will not replace your phone. It isn't their responsibility that your phone was stolen; that is called insurance.
The best you can do is complain, and possibly get compensation. But even then, that'd be unlikely; it'd probably still be replaced by insurance in most cases.

I did floor him with a few good shots to his face and head, but there were two of them so I didn't really stand much of a chance.
htcsense.com is currently down so can't do that at the moment. The PlanB app sounds good but with me now using my HTC Hero, I'm guessing it'll install to this phone. Really wish I was insured now! Lol!

Nope, you can choose which phone to send it to before it installs.

Stupid htcsense.com

Remember, when you log into HTC sense in your phone for the first time...you must enter your phone number, once HTC has that they can get all the other info. Such as IME and track the phone.
Sobs factory reset will not work. The phone is logged and saved into an HTC sense directory

Its true its not their responsibility that the phone was stolen but it is their fault you cant trace it!...

Thats true that it is their fault that the phone cannot be traced but being HTC they have probably already got around that problem. If somebody emails them or calls them and says that, they will just point them to the terms and conditions of HTC Sense where it will say something like "HTC reserves the right to cancel services at any time for an unspecifies period" or something like that. Damn law.

Too bad there isn't any secret tracker service implemented in the bootloader so the thief can't remove it.

If you have insurance then get yourself a brand new DHD, if you don't then it's a learning curve to make sure you do in the future.
As for GPS / wireless locating services, theyre very temperamental and work when they feel like, if you have your phone in a field and HTC tracking decides to work then i have no doubt that it will locate it straight away (providing it gets a gps / wireless lock)
Get insurance if you haven't and learn some whupp ass skills so you don't get owned by a pair of thieves again, a kick in the shin followed by a headbutt works wonders on muggers

G2 issues, any solutions/suggestions?

I am really thinking of selling this thing. I put it up at Craigslist just to see what kind of bites I get on it. I'm just having a hard time with some stuff:
Proximity sensor is weird, at times the screen doesn't turn on when I put the phone down when calling someone, and other times when calling someone and I put it up to my ear the phone seems to go to sleep and the call is disconnected. Sometimes when the phone doesn't turn on again the knock on sensor doesn't work and I have to use the power button.
Knock on doesn't work half the time. I've tried every variation of fast, slow, and keeping my finger in the middle. Sometimes it works beautifully , others times it takes 4 or 5 tries.
Random battery drain, seems it's that CIQ GPS issue, but it just randomly pops up and if the phone is in my pocket drains half of it in an hour or 2.
Rear buttons are getting annoying. They are sensitive, if it's in my pocket and I'm listening to music even a light tap of my pocket and the volume is affected. I can't really get used to them.
Speaker is TERRIBLE. I did the audio hack on here and raised it to 68, I also tried the Viper4android app, neither of them made much difference. Even if they did, it's still mono so doesn't make for a great emergency boombox. I can be in a quiet room and it's bordering on useless.
Even with CleanROM installed I still get occasional lag, it's only minor, but it just bums me out with such powerful hardware.
The rest of my complaints are with Android and things that are just not polished or ready for prime time, but that should be another subject.
Pluses:
The screen is insane, and it's VERY easy to read in sunlight.
The battery life (when not bugged) is pretty insane as well.
Android is cool to tinker with.
Who else is on the fence?

Err no

I mean.. I have had a BLAST with the G2 so far.
I wouldnt sell it if I got the double for what I paid.
Well.. I would.. and I would buy another one !
But on my G2 I have no issues whatsoever. Not rooted or anything yet though.

O.P, you have a defect.
My phone definitely doesn't act like that. I'd try exchanging first before selling it altogether

Why did you wait till after the return window was closed? I'm afraid Craigslist would only net you some low ballers.
I'm not sure which carrier version you have but if it's a Verizon version expect nothing but low ball offers.

I originally bought it off CL for $400, maybe that's why they sold it, lol. I already got 2 offers for $400 so should at least break even. Maybe I have a defective one, but don't feel like going thru LG warranty.

I always wonder about people complaining about threads like this, if they are just trying to get attention. Just read it and move away quietly, no one really cares.
Seriously, taking the time to lecture me about what I should post is just as bad as me starting a discussion. It's a forum after all. If you have something which might help that would be great, have you experienced the same issues? Do I maybe have a defective unit? Do you know of any fixes which might help the issues I have?

well then there is no point in this thread, other then arouse people, and for what...
oh snap troll baited.
Please close and delete thread

OP, What's sad is if you had my phone, you wouldn't sell it. So far mine is perfect & has no issues @ all. Have you considered trying to buy a brand new G2?

If you were really looking for issues to fix the phone you would ask that instead of whining about selling it

Been using the Verizon variant and so far am really enjoying it. After being on touchwiz for so long, the G2 is a refreshing new experience.

I may try to go through LG warranty. Anyone think they would give me an issue if I don't have a receipt and wasn't the original buyer?

I did ask, but thanks for your whining about my whining.

You definitely must have a defective unit, mine is so good. Previously had a Galaxy 3 & I'm not regretting the decision to skip the S4.
Best phone I've used, ever.

I don't think so. The phone just came out so the warranty is still good provided there's no water damage or anything major.

I originally bought it off CL for $400, maybe that's why they sold it, lol. I already got 2 offers for $400 so should at least break even. Maybe I have a defective one, but don't feel like going thru LG warranty.

I reeeeeeeally hope the buyer of your defective phone will end up here on Xda, finding this thread. He then might have a case against you since you sold him a phone you knew didn't work properly.

I haven't sold my phone. I will probably send it in to LG to see what they think, I just was hesitant to do that in case they can't replicate the problems. I didn't feel like waiting a month just to have them send it back and say it's fine. Seems they are intermittent. Most of the time the phone functions well, other than a slight lag. The proximity sensor issues are fairly occasional, but I haven't had the phone in a while. The knock on sensor is about 1/3 the time, but anecdotally I've read lots of other users having the same issue so that may be a universal problem with maybe a batch of them. The battery drain issue is also a well known bug with CIQ which some experience.

You need the reciept.
Doesnt matter if you're not the original owner or not though.
Edit: This is according to Norwegian\Scandinavian laws btw.
