I got one too, from buymobilesdirect.com or some place like that. Didn't ask for it. Was well chuffed, even more so when I checked the cid of the phone and it's SIM unlocked too. Bought on contract with 3.
So your not alone. Think they just wanna get rid of the things.

I hit thanks.. oops.
Yeah the cool thing about being simunlocked, is I don't have to wait for three to put out updates, it's a generic cid, so they come straight from HTC.

Yeah im waiting for damn update.. my cid is HG3_001 so guessing is lock

Yeah got mine yesterday, htc__001
Don't think much of the media link, not fast enough to play video highlights, keeps buffering. Although if you upload it to YouTube then play it's fine, I guess cos of the compression.

watched 1080p works fine but it is on my phone sd and playing mc3 atm going smoothly, didnt check youtube yet

xbox live issues hd7

Does anyone else have problems with Xbox live crashing? Has anyone else had this issue more important has anyone got it working?
If you mean the XBOX Live Extras app then yeah, it crashes when it starts. And from what I've read on the reviews part of the marketplace, everybody is having that problem.
The actual XBOX Live Hub though works just fine.
exact same here, even though i did get it working for all of 10 seconds the extras bit, then it crashed on me. just glad im not the only one having the problem
Same for me too
XBOX Live Hub works and played a game , but the XBOX Live Extras app will not work one bit , justs starts to load goes black and back to home screen .....
Any news on a fix for this ?
I have the HTC HD7 ..........
By the looks off it it only the HTC it not working on
Do u think we will get a fix or not ?

Xbox live extra is not on the marketplace now and if u click on the link in xbox live u cannot download or share it .. {Hope this is a sign it is being fixed }
Not a great start, especially as it's a specific problem to the HD7. I wonder in what other ways the HD7 is different and if this problem will occur for other apps.
Also i'm not too happy in the way Europe is being used as a glorified beta test for America. We get to deal with all the immediate problems..

If he's only had his phone for a day or so, he won't see it. Seems the XBL extra app was pulled to be fixed, at least on the HTC's.
was just mentioning why his Live wasn't crashing like the rest of us... oh wait I reset my phone so I've not got it either lol oh well it'll reappear working hopefully, and has HTC updated 6 of their apps already?
I hope I was the beta user... I dont mind dealing with initial issues but be the first one to have new phone availability.
I need to buy my phones in Europe and ship them to Mexico because if I wait for Mexican companies to introduce them I will wait a year and will pay double the price (we have the worst Phone companies).

It's normally the other way round and then we're complaining they get it first.....lol
Can't have it all ways.

Currently no, I sent an email to wifirouter which made the great app for our HD2's and the only reply they gave me was no so good, and that for how they see the OS now, it doesnt allow for it.
Lets hope Windows fixes that. Cause we need that. I really really need that.
This one has been beaten to death in other threads but for what it's worth +1 for tethering feature here as well.

Doesnt do us much good, and I really hope they come out with it soon, even if it is third party like we had on the HD2, i hate dragging my HD2 around to see clients just to have that one feature.
Any news or rumor about hd7 tether we need the update really soon.

not that I have seen, my HD7 is a paper weight right now, since that is all it is good for, i got fed up with all the missing things went back to HD2.
Man, I'm right there with you. Same thing. Microsoft took a step backwards. Disappointment. I have to keep switching SIM cards to my AT&T tilt to tether. Serious BS.
all these answers have really really pushed me back, not buying until MS fixes all or most of the common things, tether, bluetooth atleast
I just got HD7 from ebay and got in love with it and the WP7 system in one hour time. But last and most important thing for me that I checked was usb tethering.
What a disappointment.
I hope M$ will make it soon available or I'll get rid of the phone unfortunately

Eh u just got the phone, give it a few days, ull grow to hate it
But yes, tethering not present is a big let down, along with many missing items, and the mid January BIG update, is nothing more then new fixes for market place and cut/paste to shut us up, which is still not here soooooo....
thats why im glad i kept my HD2
has anyone tried using the DFrouter xap posted in the hd2 development forum? You need a jailbroken device for that though..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922000
First, is there any updates concerning tethering on the HD7? And second, why is everyone blaming Microsoft when they have already said that its availible but up to the carriers to offer it?

Why on earth would you want to do such a thing? I shudder at the thought.
It might not be firmware related... when I was getting random rebooted like that it got worse and worse regardless of the rom used until I finally sent it in and discovered it was the motherboard. Maybe your issue is similar.
hmmmm

No ROM will solve your restarts, if you ran a clean stock ROM and it also had them. It's most probably a HW problem in your phone.
"Overly enthusiastic" MIUI followers tend to push it in every possible thread as the solution for all problems, without even understanding the problem. It's not.
If your Nexus One is under warranty then the best option is to stop playing around with ROMs and send it in for repair.

HTC will still repair faults for you but it will be at a price. It might be worth phoning their service dept and having a chat.
What makes you think it's not under warranty anyway? I thought HTC gave the N1 with a 2 year warranty?
i buy nexus one from uk

I would at least try. I bought a N1 off of ebay and the camera stopped functioning altogether after about a month.
I called them, they said that they do warranty's based on the device number, not the based on the original owner.
Also, the bootloader was unlocked. They never said anything.
thanks for info i will try

have to agree with dragoon there, just starting out go with CM 7.0.3 or 7.1.0. easy to flash ,theme and tweek. good for a starter.
Well Ive had a rooted phone before. This is actually a down grade from what I had which was the MyTouch 4G. I used CM7 on that and loved it so I might have to give it a shot.

HTC One Mini M7

Hi,
First off all I've been searching around the forums and find masses of information which is amazing.. But that also confuses me.
I came here because I have a stock HTC One M7 which is a mini (hope im in the correct section).
Basically I buy my phones outright for cash, and use the remaining money on sim only contract deals which saves me a bit of money..
So I've had this phone for going on 2 years.. its been fine and loved it at first.. but lately i'd say over the past 6 months the phone has gone extremely slow.. when I mean slow it can take 1 to 2 minutes to load apps then the same again for it to update information within that app.. If someone says take a picture I say not being funny but it would take 5 minutes for this phone to take the picture and the moment is lost..
Thing is I was planning on keeping this phone till 2016.. but at this rate id rather just wait till I get home to use the net.. im seriously tempted to dump it..
But as a last resort I read on google that the rom can be changed? but ive never done this and wouldn't know which rom would be best to get this phone back to how it was! I don't care for looks I just want speed.. if it had to be a google phone then so be it..
So my question is what rom would someone recommend to a newbie to the scene?? I don't want to scrimp because im a new so would like the best I can get ??
Please get in touch!
Again sorry if this isn't in the correct section.

If it was fine after a factory reset and slowed down after a few days, its probably cause by one (or more) app installed after the reset.
