Here are my issues with this phone. (Take into account I am coming from a WM 6.5 TP2 phone) So having said that here I go:

Phone Calls: Sounds choppy. Even when the phone is ringing it sounds choppy. Some people say I am breaking up.

Text messages: There is a problem that if you add a signature to show up by default that the program will add it everytime you open your thread, but if you exit it will save to Draft. So everytime I would open a previous conversation just to see what was said and then I exit it saves to draft. MY TP2 never did that my signature was embedded not added once I opened the app.

People VIP Group: I added names to this pre-existing group and added the Default Action for this Widget. Everytime I leave the people app or make a call using that widget once I go back to the widget the default action disappears. What I mean is I have my parents home phone number and a pic of them. I set the default to call them, if I leave the widget or call them and then go back to widget the icon for the default action disappears and I click on their pic it will say set Default Action for this Widget.

Birth Dates: I am not sure what is the culprit of this issue. But every person's birth date that I have saved in my phone is one day off i.e. John Smith's BD is 7/18/1979 the phone has it as 7/17/1979. So I have to change it back to the correct date. This goes for the Facebook birthdates and the phone birthdates. But my old phone has the right date and so does Facebook. So why it appears one day off on this phone I will never know.

Voice Dialing: I just noticed this today, although the voice dialer works there is no way to launch it outside of moving the app to a page on your home screen then pressing it. I was able to launch Voice Command on my TP2 whether I was using a BT headset or not. What confuses me when you are in the dialer pad I see a microphone and say what I want but it doesn't dial nor do anything but show you the name. What is the purpose of that microphone on the dialer pad screen?

3D pictures: You cannot send another person that does not have a 3D phone a 3D picture. So why would I want to take a picture in 3D and have to convert it back to 2D in order to share it? What is the purpose then? I don't know anyone with this phone besides me.

External Speaker Volume: Stinks like nobodies business. Now this is a HTC problem as a whole because my last two previous phones were also HTC and when compared to my friend's Blackberry (not sure of the model but it doesn't matter) there is no comparison. Night and Day when it comes to loudness. I am slightly hearing impaired and when this phone is not right in front of me a loud ringer is key for me.

Maybe there is something I missing with this. The screen goes black after two seconds. I have Friend Stream as my screen saver if you will and while I am scrolling through their updates and reading it will go black on me.

Now I have called HTC about some of these issues but they are still outstanding since I was at work at the time and I had to get off, but I was on the phone for at least an 1 hour before doing so and without much success. The other issues I just recently discovered and have not brought to HTC 's attention as of yet. I have to call them back to see if there are any solutions. I want to love this phone. But not right now I can't say I even like it. I was considering going with WP7 but Sprint only has one phone and I wasn't impressed at the way it looked so I didn't bother. However, maybe I should have given it a chance.

Am I the only one experiencing these issues?
