Nice Clear-Coat, pls Remember me for your Giveaway (slttouchhd).
greetz and thxs

How does this protector compare to the ones from InvisibleShield?

you seem pretty desperate for people to subscribe don't you? If people like your material then they will, but don't shove junk down their throat.

I'm not desperate.... I just got this from Clear-Coat and obviously i don't have 2 HD's so I am giving one away.....
what is wrong with that?
plus i have gained like 17 subsribers from this...
the other 100 or so love my videos...
and you should look at them too...
they are quite informative....

I joined up for the list, i look forward to some more vid's on the hd. Can never be enough of them lol. Have you got a vid done of the install process for the clear coat, i could not see that there. Also nice touch with the 20% discount offer for us, many thanks there.
So whats your personal views now you got the clearcoat ?

I have finished the install videos... and just need to upload them... probably to day or tommarow...
I will get a review video out a soon as I use it more....
thanks for the comment.

lol - I have to agree - its a bit like your beginning to spam the forum
I hope your open to criticism because I have a couple of points to make about your videos:
A)- Stop umming and erring
B)- Get a better way of showing the Touch HD screen in the videos
Please don't take this the wrong way - any presenter should be open to criticism as its what makes you better - hth

Please, can somebody tell me - what exactly is the attraction about watching some-one opening a delivery box?
I was actually sad enough to watch this through to the end, because I thought something might happen in it. But no, it's just the opening of some packaging.
Is this what is meant by being a geek???

their is no attraction...
I just wan't to let my viewers now what I have to review for them soon...
just to keep them updated

thank you
lol

LOL!! It's like a bad car wreck. You can't turn away.

how is it against the Martin Fields coat?

Love it!!!
I just posted the review up on my channel....
the texture is amazing!!
recommend it to anyone!

subscribed.

Nice update, how long did it take to install the clear coat ?, i guess the corners are a pain to do, and practice is needed, so temped to get one of these to safe guard my phone.
Thank again for update.

well it took about 20 minutes for me to do.. the back side.
The front took like 5 minutes.. so it was easy...
but the good thing was. If I messed up I could peeel it right off and try again.

Say what you think. Personally, after watching a few of his inept videos, I'm of the opinion that he shouldn't take up presenting as a career.

Windows Phone 7 Series on the HD2

I know most of you who clicked this thread would probably think this is another thread that asked if it was possible. Well I'm here to share the great news to HD2 owners... http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2381 read it up!
Apparently a russian team has been working on it and looks like theyre working (from screenshots) and a beta release should be soon
PS MOD: if it is against the rules to paste links from htcpedia pls delete thread. thanks

Again, no video. It's easy to fake screenshots. On the other hand, why would Tom destroy his reputation?
Let's wait and see...
I think I'm going to keep my HD2 a little longer. Not that it's likely that I will prefer WP7S over WM6.5 or Android, but I'm curious to try it...

tom is a pretty reputable source, i dont think that he'd do that either.

It was also confirmed by a Mod in the HD2 ROM development thread. Lets wait and see..

easy to fake a screen shot with shadow and glare and perfect reflection...

A prominent person such as him is not a person who would let his name get dragged in the mud like that, I'm inclined to believe this is the real deal. Its alot sooner than I couldve ever hoped for, but with the lack of software available at this point anyone trying this without an IRONCLAD way of downgrading is a hopeful idiot IMO.
Still, fantastic news nonetheless.

Of course, if you display it on the phone.
Very easy, actually.

Well, Tom actually says the pictures are coming from Russian hackers, and I'm a member at the forum where this was posted initially. These guys are very reputable and have proved more than once that they have some good sources, but they could play a joke as well.

Good sources? Afaik they just hacked an HTC server.
But you're right, those guys are credible.
Too bad they couldn't make a video, though

Video is up guys
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJCFdojbjh8

And that video doesn't look like it's that Throttle Launcher WP7 skin?

not to me...
I say bring it on though

Video seems suspicious to me as you can't see if it's really an HD2 - all you can see is a black shape. But then, these people who have done and confirmed this are indeed reputable...

My prayers have been answered. Granted, I figured it would just be a matter of time... just not this SHORT an amount of time!!!

Guys, this is tom_codon. Just have a look about XDA, I very much doubt he would do this.
As for me, I read in the (other forum) thread that you cannot go back to WM6.5 once installed, as they had to replace the bootloader to get it to work - so this is definitely out of the question for me...

video 2 for all the doubters....

If they came this far to get it on there then I'm sure that will get figured out as well.

If You Don't Have An iPhone...

very true and a very good job man the reason iphone is so popular because its advertised as the best phone and with the functions than none of other phones have, which is obviously a lie, but a person whos not into mobile phones will obviously go for a phone thats popular etc......
HTC should buy it out from you and make it an advert in TV

Lol they should put that on tv
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App

Wow that is amazing very convincing!
Also nice to see you not cutting away anything in between like on the apple adds, where they somehow manage to skip any loading screen on apps

Dude, I shared your video on my Facebook! I loved every second of it!

Excellent! Can't wait to show this to my ("i'll buy anything shinny from apple ") friend,just to piss him off ))

This is a top job man, says it all pretty much

I'm just jealous how responsive your swype is! Mine never decides to write what I want it to anymore .. Apart from this message actually, flawless!

Well done on the video... At least now im not in need to tell everyone how awesome Android and the Desire are... Ill just link the vid and im done

You sir have found a new fan !! this is brilliant - I lol'd at the Apple ads and wished there was a response - and here it is ... haha loving every bit of it .. Would ;love to see the face of my Apple Fanboy friends!

The iPhone just got OWNDED ..... AGAIN lol

great video, they should use it on the HTC website as well as shopping sites.
If it wasn't for the overheating of 3 motherboards, I can't really fault the Desire. Very responsive and a joy to use. I will miss it. My replacement Galaxy S just isn't as quick.

What the...where's the Sense UI? You took all those gorgeous widgets...it could've been a great Ad.

lvnatic he's just using a custom launcher. whether the sense widgets are great is a question of taste i believe. Personally i like them but the alternatives on the market is just as good, and i really like the speed on aosp roms So i don't plan on going back to sense based roms anytime soon.

A reprieve for all of us that HAVE to wait

Just watch this, it'll keep your mind off Verizon and Samsung for a little while:

I'm coming from Evo4g which ill keep as my note taker... and yeah I look forward to the phone and forums! :-D super stoked!!! haha

u should be and welcome to the forums...this phone is INSANE

Welcome and yes this phone is awesome

Yes and you join in our ICS mania going around =D

Yea! ICS is the reason I switched... I'm going to miss sense, but once 4.0 becomes more stable I would have left it anyways... im sure 4.0 is way more stable on this phone than Evo4g already anyways!!! I have 5hours to wait lol... but thank you for the welcome!!! :-D

Welcome! Great phone, great forum!
As usual, read the stickies, get familiar with the acronyms and procedures before flashing Anything. Seriously. And especially before playing with ICS. (Lots of bricked phones lately coming from not reading carefully.)
Also, look up, and watch Qbking77 on YouTube. TONS of great info and tutorials from him, real life saver.
