Hello everyone. I'm pretty new to the HD2 and so far I love it, but I'm a huge Hockey fan and I cant seem to find any NHL apps or programs. If anyone here knows of one please let me know. Thanks.
Me too... but I have had my HD2 for nearly a year now and have only found
NHL related Apps by switching to and Android build on SD and uploading
from Marketplace,not found any WinMo Apps.
Ok, thank you very much. I guess I'm still a noob and I'm scared that I'll screw up my phone by switching to android!

Hey gang, why so quiet? Anyone have any new tips, tricks or mods to share. I've been playing around with the ftouch software and hoping a more Treo friendly version of one of the cube launchers will come out, but getting bored with those since I can't find a good use for them - tray launch and quickmenu get me to what I need the quickest.
Give us something new to tinker with!!!
Cheers!
Hi Guys n Girls,
Well I've been a member since '05 but haven't really played with WM's since the Magicians and Alpines. I've had a TyTn but didnt like it and didnt really play with it and then lost an XDA Orbit on the first night down the pub with it. I've been using an N95 lately.
I've just got myself a Polaris and it looks great! I used to love modding my other WM's but it's been a while and I was just wondering what's changed and what's new. I've had a bit of a read but just need some advice on what software to buy and what steps to take.
So here's a few questions I have:
What's the best media player?
I will listen to a lot of music and watch films while on the go. I used to use TcpMP I think. I need one that supports a lot of codecs and don't really wanna use more than one.
What's the best keyboard software?
I had SPB full screen keyboard and it was a lifesaver. Is this the best? I like the zoom fuction on the ipod keyboard.
Is SPB pocket plus still a must?
I felt this package covered bits left out by MS (such as the real 'x' close button etc.) Is it still recomended or are there other ways around things nowadays.
How do I get this touch flow stuff? It looks cool - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=y78EB0rahQA
I love the way things are more fingertip oriented. I think Apple innovated this.
Is there still a program to design themes?
Or where can I get cool themes? I like the dark styles and windows 7 looks nice.
Is ROM flashing still risky?
I've got the o2 branded ROM at the moment. I used to love trying the community's ROMS but I've just started a family and I'm real skint. I bought my Polaris PAYG and really can't afford to brick it. Mind you cooking ROMs was half the fun!
The best PDF reader?
I read a lot of PDF's and remember never finding one up to standard. Ideally it will be fullscreen with no need to scroll along the lines.
What else do you guys recommend I do to get the best out of my HTC device?
I've forgotten loads and feel like a noob again and just need some advice about what you guys consider 'must have steps'. I remember things such as installing the widdicomm BT stack as the MS one is crap. I use bluetooth stereo headphones (motorola S9s) for music.
Hope you guys have some pointers for me and I'm looking forward to playing again!
I'm off to the read the Polaris Wiki
Thanks,
Gareth
p.s. Oh by the way it's great to see this community has gone from strength to strength. It really has grown! It seems to be the HQ of the WM world now. Congrats!

You might want to read my roundups - they give you a definite answer to some of your q's (multimedia, Spb Pocket Plus when it comes to the IEM plug-in, theme management with the latest tools etc.)
Thanks,
I've just bee reading your sticky on browsers and I'm gonna take your advice and use opera mobile and flash package, i'm downloading the cabs from RS now.
I'll have a look for more of your writeups.
Thanks

Not really true - at least not yet. (Albeit, highly possible, given that at least game development for WinMo has almost entirely ceased in the last half a year....)
It's only at some categories that iPhone is MUCH better than WinMo (with much more SW titles); the most important being games.
Hi Guys,
New to mucking around with phones so might be a stupid question or may have already been answered, I did have a look around the forum and didn't find much.
I have a HTC HD2, flashed WM7 on it last week, the phone itself is working well, except for Marketplace. I called MS and got an activation key, all good, entered it in and works fine but still can't download anything at all from Marketplace, all i keep getting is "can't get this info right now, check back later" and it's annoying the hell out of me!!
Apart from that, battery certainly doesn't last very long, although it wasn't that great before hand with WM6.5 but probably a bit worse with WM7.
Just need a bit of help to get Marketplace working otherwise it's pretty pointless having WM7 (although i do love it)
Any help appreciated!
Thanks,
Pete
please don't start a new thread for HD2 WP7 based stuff... please keep it inside the HD2 thread already provided...
mod can you merge?
I have a HTC HD2 for like 5-6 months now. It is a excellent phone but since with WinMo 6.5 it's like having a genius mind with down syndrome. My main thing is to be able to watch streaming video. I know they have some browsers but most suck and dont work too well. Sorry Skyfire. Plus uZard is always crashing on me. I want to installed Android and have no clue where to start. Seems like they are like 100 different ways to do it. I just want they proper and sure way without bricking my phone. Please no trolling how I'm a newb or I should have got an EVO cause sprint sucks in my area for service and I don't like most other carriers like Verizon. Help is appreciated.
Why not head over to the HD2 forum. All the info will be there for you.
Hello everyone. I finally joined the site after months of using it as a valuable learning resource.
I am looking for ideas on an app to make, specifically for an in-car tablet set-up. I have a nexus 7 permanently installed in my car and have designed a couple of apps for it already. I made a custom launcher and a music player already so I have those ideas taken care of. The set-up is still relatively new so I haven't really encountered that "ah ha" moment for an idea yet based on necessity....
If anyone has any ideas, I would love to hear them. I want to start coding but I don't know what to make haha. Thanks in advance!
