that's what i'm thinking darren, it's more of a network issue, the phone is just following along.

Re: Don't buy the HD2 or you will be sorry!
 

Are you kidding? AT&T is so bad in the NYC area. Can you say "dropped calls galore"? People can speculate the cause of the crappy voice quality, but whether it's the network or the phone, I don't have time to screw around figuring it out. I'm gonna stick with what I know works.:headbang:

i get 3g and calling is great in my town, no probs with tmo here;]

Re: Don't buy the HD2 or you will be sorry!
 

Unless you live in the boondocks, T-Mobile works great. I've been getting stellar call quality and data here. Sorry OP, you're just a troll.

How's this for my mobile speed test result: http://mobilespeedtest.com/results/1121087233.jpg

Ive been a sprint customer for 11years and I cant remember in recent "phone history" the last time i had a dropped call. Though to be fair i dont talk so much on the phone. I hate talking on the phone. I'd rather text than talk...

dude everyone in this thread has said the same thing. It's the network not the device...this is no speculation
t mobile call quality (rather gsm calling) sucks compared to cdma. That's a fact, but you can't blame a phone on the quality of the network

Re: Don't buy the HD2 or you will be sorry!
 

I come from Sprint, I live in NYC, and I can tell that both reception and the data service on my new TMOHD2 beats the reception and internet I had on my old Treo Pro. And no lag when you connect for the first time after you restart the phone, and no stupid "connecting to Power Vision" pop-up. As for Verizon just by playing with their phones inside the store I didn't notice any difference.

Another satisfied HD2 user here as well... maybe you're in a bad area or got a bad device.

I switched from Verizon last week so far call quality has been great for me. And it's real easy to add another number into your conference call for a quick business meeting... T-mobile network held my three way call with good quality, and I could browse the web on my phone during the conference :)

but only the iphone can do that =)

Re: Don't buy the HD2 or you will be sorry!
 

I've used T-Mobile since they started and in many locations in the US (NY, FL, CA, WA) and all had clear calls and good reception. It may be that in your area you're actually roaming on someone else's tower and their service is lacking. T-Mobile doesn't have as good coverage as AT&T for voice, so for large areas of the country, you're actually using AT&T infrastructure when you're talking on T-Mobile.

The hiss issue aparently has nothing to do with GSM or t-mobile. There's a bug in the HD2 firmware that has been reported in the European version as well. We must put pressure on HTC to issue a fix.
