ALSO I WANTED TO ANOUNCE THIS HERE!

I just called here in the US. the # I dialed was 1(800) 642 - 7676 The 2 men I spoke to where dismissive, they immediately told me to call my carrier Tmobile or The device manufacturer HTC. I explained this is an MSphone problem. I asked him what help would they be? Im not having a hardware or service problem, im having a Microsoft Live account/services problem. They both explained that MS does not have Windows Phone 7 support yet, and again just repeated you need to contact your bla bla bla. Maybe ill call tonight and get someone whose willing to help.

EDIT: Persistence my friends persistence. Be polite, know what your taking about and you will get your Product license activation code. Running 100% on my HD2 =D>

Both of my pcs at home are XP(SP3) so I would like to know if you tried it on XP? And if so what did you do. I have tried every hack out there and that I can think of, and Chevron Unlocker still gives my the "Uh Oh" error. Im still hopeful as I have seen some XP users (just about 3 lol) where able to successfully unlock with Chevron on XP.

simply amazing....!!!! Got it up and running fully on my HD2 (my activation code will be stashed at my safe for future use)

I have used it for 1.5 days as my daily driver and let me tell ya... as a former HD7 owner (miss it...) it behaves 100% identically to native WP7 devices when it comes to smoothness, and battery life

Only issues i would like to be addressed before its perfect

-back speaker sound is pretty bad... lower volume makes it tolerable
-multitouch issues... its buggy and irresponsive sometimes

... thats it

speed (lag) as well. The hd7 was laggy in some areas, but the hd2 out lags hd7
also the hd2 has dual touch but multitouch, yeah not gonna happen...but otherwise it is a good (almost beta)
despite surprisingly the dvp with all of its problems is very smooth and a great exp

I really don't see the lags you guys are talking about..i've been running it on 2 phones since the 12th and neither one has had any bit of lag yet.
