it is very hard for you to make conclusion by making a question like that, look at the complaints and the positive comments in the forums, you won't be able to make a conclusion just like that. Some complaints are very much related to the person who complaint with personal feelings, nothing to do much with the device, that's how I find it, lots of complaints I found in the forums are actually just wasting time to listen at.
The only thing I can judge is by looking at the spec sheet of the phone, which the HD2 looks like the best ever phone ever made in this planet for me, and by seeing reviews from establish sites, all reviewers are giving really positive comments.

yup you're catching on fast most of the complaints are extremely personal..
complaints being the wrong word there, but it will do..
This being the interweb it's obviously true because one person said so
I can see two issues with the HD2
calibration is off, so typing is erratic from the outset. this can be corrected.
3D performance isn't as good as we'd hoped (compared to same chipset devices)
both of these should be corrected in the next rom..
oh and it would be nice if they'd turned on cleartype by default. .
My review of the HD2 will be up on htcpedia next week.
I was offered a review machine yesterday, obviously too late as I've bought one
Hi all,
i was wondering if we we will get landscape view for the homescreens on htc hero after the 2.1 update.
i have seen many videos and screenshots but none of them shows htc sense homescreens in landscape.
is this feature implemented?

Errr..........
I think the answer to your question is: no one gives a ****, son. Did you really think that a weak, uninspired and lame question masquerading as something of interest but merely serving to promote your poorly laid out and derivative blogging would have us all singing your praises ? I told you before, son, the only place your going to get any joy with that is in front of the mirror.
Having said this, perhaps we have all read you incorrectly. This is the renaissance man in action. You have used this 'post' as a modern medium to retell the myth of Narcissus, yourself cast as the vain youth. Or maybe this is moving on a couple of hundred years to neoclassicism - it's a difficult one to judge. When looked upon in this light I say bravo to you sir - re-educating the geeks is a fine and noble cause. Perhaps you might think of creating an allegory of HTC with all those wanting the 2.1 update cast as Tantalus, HTC the vengeful fates. It's food for thought

actually this is even not the first time i posted something about my blog, i.e. i posted my htc sense review and my motorola milestone review. luckily the people understood that i really meant to provide some information for the interested, and i got some positive feedback.
oh BTW: haven't you send me a private message asking to collaborate on my blog? i still have that in my inbox. funny.
and no, the question wasn't a cheap disguise, as you can see nobody could answer it. i still want to know if we will get landscape view as its a very good feature i got used to on my milestone testdevice.
No landscape mode im afraid (not juding by the video clips ive seen of the legend which runs 2.1 and new sense UI but does not tilt orientation.
and in response to the response - nice use of the english language ......... and you re right its food for thought ha ha

i hope this is not true. i really hate it when browsing on landscape mode and when you need to do something on the homcescreens you'll get the vertical view.
this would be a killer criteria. the more i see which way htc sense goes, the more i lean toward the nexus one (faster updates, landscape view).
I didnt realise the nexus one could tilt the homescreen !!!
and dont let gabriel tit put you off your blogging man. I quite often have a look at links and blogs on forums - sometimes theres a nuggett of information that is interesting on them!!!!!

well it has android 2.1 running and afaik this is a standard feature of it.
on htc desire you have the htc sense overlay which may be the reason for the missing landscape view.
milestone has it so i'm expecting that the nexus one has it too, but i'm not 100% sure.

yeah, normally i wouldn't. but i could see this discussion going on off topic, and then it would really look like cheap advertising as many people would check out the topic when its at the top of the message board. Therefore i deleted that part and kept the question which i really wanted to get an answer for.

AND HE SCOOOOOOOOORES m8 srsly ure the only one who sees behind his deception LOL
back to topic: id love to have an option to enable landscape on home screen, so yes, i give a ****
Read the Question
When I say you geeks aren't the sharpest tools - apart from the appauling use of grammar or lack of it - read the question - I haven't attacked the question per say - rather the cheap attempt at posing a 'question' masquerading as a tool to get you poor unsuspecting fools to read the crap this fool has written elsewhere.
I don't suffer fools yet ironically suffer them alot - this site, for all it's purported intelligence commonly shows a distinct lack of it - Boo Hoo
someone lock this thread up
Using tradition as knowledge HTC will never add landscape to Sense UI unless they release a device with physical keyboard...
Dont mind Gabriel...hes always here trying to bring attention to himself,using empty off-topic phrases in order to look smarter and enlighted.
Thread closed.
This obviously isn't directed to everyone. But to those few, please show everyone absolute respect. There's never a need for name calling or rude behavior. We all learn this as small children. Let's do our best to carry this into our adult lives. Okay?
I know that there have been a LOT of changes going on around here. I also know that moral seems to suffering as a result. I thought it was important for you ALL to see what this community is TRULY capable of and why I LOVE it so much.
As many of you may be aware of dreamsforgotten decided to pay it forward after I had to sell my Epic in order to help my family. He organized a benefit for me and my family. Because of the support of this community I was able to replace my phone. If you want to see just how AWESOME this community is READ some of the posts in this thread.
I also wanted to take a second and SHOW you guys the positives this community has created by working together. The impact you are having on my family is immeasurable.
I thought I would share this with ALL of you, since you helped to make this possible once again. Please keep in mind that Emmett is Autistic, will be 3 years old next month and until very recently was not able to use words. Something about working with this type of technology just makes things "click". This little app helps him with fine motor skills, object orientation/spacing, colors and language. Also it is helping to build his self-esteem and confidence as evidenced at the end of the clip.
It may not seem like a big deal to some but this is HUGE progress for us. I wanted to say thank you and show you the impact you all have made by working together.
Great News ! REAL Life means SO much more , especially to those of us who are parents ourselves and get to see the strides our kids make and the joy it gives them.
Rob, that's just bad ass man !!! seriously
I'm a father of 6 myself and it just makes my heart happy to see my children accomplish something and see how happy they are
I have always been of the belief that autistic children/people are EXTREMELY intelligent just misunderstood or they can't or don't know how to express themselves efficiently. (Hope that makes sense).. it's just really cool to see how your son is so focused on putting the puzzle pieces in place.. then the expression on his face when he completes the puzzle.. SWEET
Props to everyone that helped make this possible for you bro.
Personally I think all the BS and drama as of late is annoying and tiresome.. seeing something like this just makes it all vanish.. Children have a way of bringing out the best in people (well, most people LOL)...
you're doing a great job as a father Rob.. keep on keepin on man.. mad respect to you and those that made it possible
Good stuff man. That clip made my day.
Rob, in a way, it was you who started the change of tone in the Epic community by taking the time to release the 5.0 version of Midnight with a journal on version for those of us that were the "vocal minority" as well as the journal off version. What were there 4 versions? BYOR as well. All of that with as much as you have going on in your day to day life. You are one of the main people we should all be giving thanks to.

Dude that video was awesome! I love watching my daughter figure stuff out and then seeing how happy she is when she does! You have brought a tear to this grown-ass mans eye You sir are a great father and role model!
That was a great video, thanks for sharing! I am sure you are very proud of him
This is great, your efforts amaze me, Rob. If only more people in this world were as caring and understanding as some of the people here on these forums.
I myself am young, but I've heard of a lot of hardships, and this is touching to say the least. I wish I could do more to help, but alas distance is sometimes a burden.

When you have an Autistic child that you are told may NEVER speak and is significantly developmentally delayed, it's literally feels like your world just shatters like broken glass. So when you see things like this it becomes like a miracle. I wanted you guys to see how your support is being used.

it may appear as though he's developmentally delayed man, but IMO he (and most likely you and everyone else in his life ) are searching for some creative methods with which he can express himself/communicate, and other ways with which to teach him that HE can understand and learn in his own way.... as humans, we all learn differently and people that have autism have their own unique way that they learn. Finding this way that works for them can sometimes be frustrating, but when things click.. it's most likely the most amazing feeling in the world
I was watching him in that video man and I can tell he's VERY smart. Kudos to you for thinking outside the box and finding ways that modern technology can help him express himself, communicate, and learn.. you're a great father man.. honestly.
I'm glad to be associated (albeit a distant one LOL) with someone like yourself.
And again, I'm super happy that the community has banded together in ways that can indirectly help out more than just you.. (to be read, helping your family as well).
The only autistic kid I've ever come across had a very good affinity for computers and how things were meant to be put together. Her name is Riley and she really loved to play minesweeper on the computer and she is actually really good. I love bringing my son over to play, cause they actually get a long great as long as he isn't on HER computer. LOL. Glad to see that you are using the Epic to help your son reach his greatest potential.
yes this community is awesome, tons of useful information.
Rob, you and your family will be in my heart the rest of my life, I will do anything in my power to spread the word, I'm actually working on something on my side to help...

Btw that app looks like fun what is it called? I want to play lol!!
Awesome video Rob. He is very intelligent. Like everyone else said thank you Rob for everything that you have done. I will always do my best to help spread autism awareness where ever I may go. Thank you for the inspiration you have given me as a father. Btw what is that app called? My daughter would love to play it.

This video was very inspiring. I thank you Rob for everything you've done as well and your little boy Emmett is adorable! I'm only 14, but believe me when I'm older, I still won't forget this, and the amazing things you have done for your children. It is people like you that make people want to have a reason to live, to wake up every morning. I love how you involved technology in your boy's daily life to make him happy. God bless you, sir.

For 14 you are quite well spoken. I'm very impressed. Thank you very much. It really means a lot.
HTC ONE has made me a firm believer in the future and progressing as an individual.
It has changed my life for the absolute BETTER in every shape and form.
Thank god for XDA and developers and ROMS and Android this is evolutionary.
What a great day to be alive and experiencing life to it's fullest.
All it took was one day...
Seriously!
It's absolutely mind blowing how fantastic this is and the technology that we have in line to come.
The HTC M8 and One Plus One look pretty damn solid as well...
Wouldn't mind trying one of those for a spin anyday.
Wish I could afford it.
Plus I need recommendations for a tablet and laptop if you guys can suggest any for me.
Especially ones on sale or top of the line specs and features for a great price!
God damn I'm glad to be alive and well and moving forward with the pure and divine nature of my soul in all instances and opportunities in the future.
To a beautiful existence.
It's a damn good day to be alive my friends!
Take care and signing out with respect and appreciation and much love to everyone out there in the world and the online community.
Thanks for being part of a revolution
This is our god damned generation.
Let's do this, haha!
.
You guys make the future look really bright and I thank you dearly and look forward to tomorrow for the first time in forever!

seems to be great why?
a little more info in your TS would be nice, otherwise posting this is meaningless
Probably spam...
I'm done with all IWatch clones... I have a pretty nice one here, but when I tried to order a larger quantity from SHEN ZHEN EYANG TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD, they suddenly cut all communication... So I'm done with clones of the Apple Watch, most of these companies don't know what they're doing imo...

I think it is great for its attributes (i'm sorry i don't speak engligh so well and i use this word because i don't know the right one) because after reading details of this smartwatch in the description in my opinion it is better than the others that i saw (not for the design but for screen resolution, RAM and the others attributes).
i' m sorry what dies TS mean?
I didn't want to spam. I'm just sharing on this thread what i'm finding during my search of the perfect smartwatch for me. I'm very sorry if you think that i want to spam. It isn't my aim
TS = Topic Start, a topic start normally contains info on a watch, pics, specifications
Specs look good. Can anyone confirm that this has quad core, 1gb/16gb? Anyone tried to root & flash?
Google play support?
