Tmobile here is awesome and I get great customer service, better than Sprint. Plus I pay less per month than Sprint so I'm pretty happy.

Where in TX? In Houston its not bad, but its still doesn't compare to other coverages. In Lubbock Tmo is horrendous.

I live in Houston, I get great reception in Houston and surround areas (Friendswood, Rosenberg, Spring) and in Austin. Always getting 3G or H except in some buildings, pretty much the same coverage I got with Sprint.

Tmobile was decent.. until I had to travel somewhere. There were stretches on I-85 south, I-10 west and I-75 north that I had no coverage for huge stretches of area.

Try coming to Hutch. There is no signal or roaming. AT&T even put up towers here.

yeah, I experienced that when I had Sprint too.

Either way it's all in the preference, still loving my HD2 android development, running Froyo Flawlessly with and without sense.

The coolest thing about running Android on the HD2 is that you can have multiple ROMs on your phone at once. I have 3 ROMs I am currently using, and to switch, I don't have to flash a new one or anything, just run a different "haret" from a different folder. It's so awesome.

Then I come back to winmo and play me some playstation games with wii remoate, and some Zuma, and my all time favorite, pocket lemmings!

best of both worlds man, for realz.

it's so weird, the HD2 is like the only one of its kind. the ONLY winmo 6.5 phone that will ever be on a snapdragon, with a really big screen, with a capacitive screen, I mean so crazy. Why the hell did they even put a capacitive screen on a winmo device?

windows 6.x doesn't even make drivers for a capacitive screen, HTC had to write their own as far as I know.

It's like they knew we were going to put Android on it (and hopefully winpho7 as well).

See, if we get a winpho7 port on this device, then it really will be the ultimate device that I will keep for a long time. Because of the insane winpho7 architecture, I don't see another phone being able to run Android and Windows Phone 7 for a very very long time.

You said your build was running perfect. I experience some random 2-3 second screen freezes. I've read the same for other users. What build are you using?

I'm using mattc's with the tmous mms fix btw.
