This isn't a just a solution for phone calls either. Anytime you need the radio for an extended period of time, having the keyboard out should help dissipate the heat a little.
Careful, you'll be labeled an HTC Fanboy or an HTC apologist...

Nope, he's just a guy willing to force his phone to work properly. Kudos to him, and he has some good advice. A "few" of us would not go to such extremes.

I would, if I was stuck with the phone.

Again, seriously, it is good advice to prevent the phone from overheating. I also wonder if there is something that could be done to "wick" away the heat from that radio portion? Perhaps an aluminum back cover, with fins? Like a giant heat-sink? That might look pretty cool as well...

Well if you don't have to hold the keyboard open while talking, or install the audiopara hack, or any other mod like that, then yes, you are correct as well as lucky.. You don't need to force/convince/or otherwise manhandle your TP to make it work properly.

Consider yourself lucky... very lucky. You are giving people hope that they can get a Pro without overheating issues... I just hope it's not false hope... That would be really uncool.

Mine works great! I love my phone. It has a few flaws but over all it's fantastic.

It does get warm, great for those cold winter nights.

The battery could be better but I don't worry about it much. I have a charger every where I go and it sure beats having to man handle a tangled phone cord or the crap range cordless phones provide.

It plays video pretty well when on the go, far better then my craptastic Motorola Razr ever could. Helps pass the time when I am not home and able to enjoy real movies on my large projector screen...

Ahh remember the days when we didn't have cell phones..or portable movie players? Or how about those super large brick cell phones that first came out...those were the days.

hehe you make a good point--HTC could market on the "Built-In Heater" aspect!

Awesome! People in northern U.S. or Canada would love it

As a matter of fact, I don't need to open the keyboard when I'm talking on the phone. Does the phone get warm? Sure it does, not to the point where it's burning me or I need to take the back cover off or open up the keyboard. It's a mini computer for christ sakes.

Haven't installed the audio hack, i can hear just fine.

And why would come on here and lie about these things? This is my first HTC phone, so i'm definitely not a fanboy of HTC. Why is it so hard to fathom that SOME of these phones are fine?

To the mods, I'm sorry for getting off topic in yet another thread. I don't want another thread closed because of it so I'll just use the ignore feature.

Proceed..
