Two questions re ringtones and music on the HD2:
1. How do I store ringtones on my 16gb microSHDC card so they don't appear in the music player?
2. What's the best way to add music to the phone? I've added about 500 (about 2gb worth) of misc mp3s in the "my music" folder on the card and the phone has trouble opening the folder... should I create subfolders for each and every artist and/or album..?

All the disadvantages listed here were posted not to piss Apple off. They complain about the HD2 not being able to play certain file types, they dont see that winmo can be customized in a infinite number of ways, I think that I've changed the OS on my T8285 at least 4 times in the past months, always improving. I don't have to wait for apple to feed me an update, xda works for me 24/7 :)

Someone posted a remark about the Samsung's HD screen not being capacitive. Wrong bud, it IS capacitive... :-)

Has anyone else had problems sync-ing their HD2? I'm running XP Pro with all my contacts stored in Office Outlook 2007. However, whilst ActiveSync copies calendar details to the HD2, it ignores my contacts... So i'm stuck with a flashy phone with no numbers on it! I've tried rync-ing with gmail but to no avail... Any advice out there..?

I mostly use it as a media player, and for that
its simply amazing.
Its plays h264 video's flaweless upto 5k bitrate
although 2k is perfect for most 800x480 movies.
65k colors, its a downside, but you'll barely notice
it, only on one color gradients.
WM6.5 works great on a fast mobile like this, very
good memory handling. Used android before, but they
still need at least one year to compete.
For me its the big screen and fast cpu, its overwhelming.

I've had the HD2 for 24hrs now and it's simply stunning. The size of the handset is not a problem, it works well, is easy to navigate and runs so smoothly... Now all I need to do is copy the (detailed) contacts from my N82 phone (not the SIM card) to the HD2. Any sugestions as to how?
Also, GSM's review said CoPilot Live8 could only be downloaded to the phone and not the microSD card, is this correct given the limited available memory in the handset?

Bash, 23 Nov 2009If you need a phone with HD recording you could go samsung ... morei8910 HD uses a capacitive screen.

Regarding the pink spot in the middle of the pictues taken with the HD2, I just reialized that when using the Auto White balance the pink spot at the center of the picture appears noticably in pictures with bright or white color. I testing it while the white balance was set to Sunny (which I like and sometimes do with my renoir). However the pictures are greate and I still take pictures with it and the pink spot is not or hardly noticable while setting the white balance to sunny, much better than iphone or black berry ;)

Be careful, if you expect photo's and music from the sd card to load fast : dream on, that's the reason why i put my HTC Hero after one day back in the box. The phone can't access those files as quick as for example the Iphone 3GS can (native memory).

Hmmm strange. I took more than 15 pictures for the sky, clouds, white clothes, white papers and books and I cant see the big pink spot in the center of any picture neither the edges. I dont know why its exist in some of the pictures taken in the review, may be its the device they were reviewing has this isuue. Well, at least anyone who want to make sure can just go and try it himself. And what I ment down in the comment about the pink color in the pictures, I ment the pink color that occurs in pictures which have the sun or part of it in the background, from the sun light a little pink to purple color occure close to it, but not in other pictures I took even out side under the sun nor in side a building. And if any body wants me to take a picture of a specific thing just ask and give my an upload site to upload it and it'll be my pleasure :)
