Thanks man
I was reading it and noticed it says we have HDMI-out on this phone. I was going to remove that little bit, but then I wasn't sure if there really was HDMI out through some USB adapter that I'm not aware of, or if it means an actual mini/micro HDMI port on the phone itself (which I know does not exist).
Maybe that needs to be fixed/clarified?
Also, made some edits anyway though.

Oh using that adapter. So technically, the Titan does not have any HDMI out, it just has DLNA out. That adapter only connects to a tv and turns a regular TV into a DLNA device.
I am guessing what you were talking about is MHL. I have no idea if that exists in this phone or if it is at the moment Only Android phones with this but MHL adapters IF this phone has that ability convert Micro-Usb to HDMI through the Micro-USB Charge Port.
Thanks Ganja! Great work man!
I noticed that the wiki states that the Titan battery is interchangeable with that of the Evo and the Amaze. I need an additional battery and a remote charger for my Titan so I was shopping when I noticed a slight difference in the specifications.
The OEM battery in my (AT&T) Titan is 3.8VDC. With no exceptions, all of the batteries for the Evo and the Amaze are 3.7VDC. I’m not smart enough to know if this difference is significant. In the event that someone has already done the research, I didn’t want to amend the wiki.
Do you happen to know the answer to this, or would you know how we can find out if it is completely cool to swap batteries with slightly different specifications?
Thanks again,
Dave

I'm the one that actually added that bit in there. I had already done some research on the batteries for the Amaze and Evo, and found OEM ones that run at both 3.8VDC and 3.7VDC (most 3.8VDC). Actually, a 3.8VDC HTC EVO 3D battery is what I am using inside of my Titan at the moment.
That being said, the very minor VDC difference between 3.8VDC and 3.7VDC should not have any impact on how it performs in the phone, unless the battery is some piece of junk from a third party or something (which I would never buy to begin with). There should be no problems with the using the batteries at all. Historically with HTC products, they tend to make many devices that have batteries that are interchangeable despite the minor VDC/mAh differences.

Is your EVO 3D 3.8V battery the original one that came with your EVO 3D with model number BG86100 and is 1730mAh? If yes, does your Titan charge it and display the remaining charge correctly?

The battery I ordered from Amazon actually, but it matches that model number and the specs you list, and charges perfectly fine and shows what I believe to be an accurate remaining charge.
The OEM battery in my HTC Titan is 3.8VDC.
The battery EVO 3D i have bought is 3.8VDC.
I just made a minor change in the FAQ.
The correct length for Ringtone is under 39s, not 40s.
People said it "under 40s" but all my ringtones are set to 38.99s in order to make it work
and i have a question about the batterry, you can put a same-size HTC-OEM 1730mAh on it? Where can i buy this?
OK, I know this is a real non-tech type question, but having just read that HTC/ATT will be releasing the Radiant, a LTE enabled phone, can someone clue me in on how this will differ from the Titan on AT&T? My connection to AT&T usually shows as "4G" on my Titan, so I'm not sure what kind of advancement the Radiant will represent.

4G and 4G LTE are two different types of network technologies.
Let's just say that 4G LTE would be a world of difference compared to regular 4G, especially since 4G is not really 4G at all, just an improved version of 3G, but it is marketed as 4G.
4G LTE is the technology that Verizon currently uses on its 4G phones. Data speeds are absolutely off the charts (in most cases).

I bought one off of Amazon.com, but I'm sure you can get it anywhere HTC accessories/batteries are sold. Just buy a battery for an EVO 3D or Amaze.

Battery BA S590 (EVO) in Titan
Dear friends,
I ordered an original HTC EVo battery for my Titan, so it can benefit from the extra 10% of juice.
But the phone shows a question mark in the battery level indicator when I installed the battery doesn't seem to charge the battery.
Is there any workarround?

My question is its not a 3G phone and I have AT&T here in the states. Will flashing a new ROM add 3G capabilities or is that a hardware issue?
Also can Technologists kernel be added to a stock Hero? Or do I need a custom rom?
Believe it or not, I am not new, played with HTC touch for 1 year and love xda. But still need my hand held for android yet..
I believe the problem is that the GSM here in the states uses a different radio frequency that the hardware isn't capable of switching to...that the rest of the world uses. You might want to confirm what bands China uses compared to EU and US GSM but I know the EU ones don't have full 3G here due to that issue.
yeah the Telus Hero in Canada works on AT&T's 3g but not the EU one.
Ok, well it came today and, well I now have a Tiger WG3 clone in my hands. I will send it back, but wondering how could I check the OS on it? The browsing I did has suggested its android based?
Is there something like TKE explore that will allow me to see the internals??
If this is what you've got, you've been had.
This isn't a Hero, and never will be a Hero. It doesn't/won't run Android.
Sorry!
Dave
Dave,
That looks like it for sure. Did you have one to play around with? I will send it back, but want to explore the insides abit if I can find a program to work with it.
Thanks for the reply.
No, I didn't buy one of those, but I did buy an iPhone mini "clone" because I wanted to try out the "dual sim" side of the phone. Unfortunately, it was a steam pile of dingos kidneys, and judging by the UI of the "Tiger WG3", it comes from the same family!
Hope you get your money back!
Dave
Thank god i found this post - i was about to get a tiger gw3 due to it being a dual sim phone and a hero look alike, so its true - those phones just has a pile of dingos kidneys inside.
thank you

I think that you're about to get banned.
I've been looking for a spare battery and battery charger for my Telus GSM Hero but all of the ones I found say they're for the Sprint version. I'd like to get OEM if possible, or the highest quality standard capacity ones. Does anyone know where to buy these?
Hey,
Not wanting to promote any site orso but i bought an charger + battery upgrade from this site :
http://www.oddsandpods.co.uk/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=hero&x=0&y=0
Hope it helps.
look on ebay, they have tons for really cheap (including shipping).
i got an oem battery for ~$6(including shipping) for my telus hero shipped to edmonton.
chargers should be ~$3 or less (did not order as i have a few of these already from various electronics)

Which one works with the Telus Hero? Is it one of these - http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-BATTERY-For...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item5885d6d4e7 or http://cgi.ebay.com/for-HTC-HERO-TO...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item439d46186d ? It says "Hero G3" and I thought the Hero was the G2.
In some markets, I believe the Magic was called the G2. As long as it's a GSM Hero battery you should be fine.

no sure about this part...
if your not getting an OEM battery, you can just get a GSM hero battery just to be safe?
but as for the OEM hero battery, look at the pictures supplied by the seller and they should show the battery part number (ie for my telus hero - Part no. 35H00121-05M) and look exactly like the one you have.

and for the battery charger, same thing, try "htc hero battery charger":
here's the cheapest result (including shipping) @ Approximately C $4.06 (including shipping). but i suggest if you getting one of these, you might as well just get the phone dock (dock for phone) that also has a battery charger.

No it isn't. Since the Sprint Hero battery is 1550 mAh, I asked Sprint Hero owners to confirm the physical dimensions of their batteries, and it turns out that the Sprint Heros battery is slightly wider so wouldn't fit in a GSM Hero.

I am fed up with the Nexus One and this chronic power button problem I've sent it in for four times, and no GPS. No more HTC for me.
Looking for a newer phone for T-Mobile that gets 3G or 4G. No hardware keypad, and working GPS. That's all I ask.
I thought the Moto Atrix might be it, but it can't do better than EDGE. The Photon (Sprint) seems to be only WiMAX.
It seems that T-Mo has only LG and Samsung phones, and I am not enamored with either brand.
Recommendations?

I swore to myself I would never buy another samsung phone, but I ended up with a white galaxy s2 since it was the best phone at the time and it has been great so far (if you don't mind not having ICS). Perfect actually.
I have turned the Motorola site upside-down looking for a fairly current phone that would work 3G or better in T-Mo, but no luck.
Don't trust Samsung or LG, although I'm sure they make fine products. I've been very happy with Motorola phones since cellular services started. Wish for the Droid Razr, but Hate Verizon and ATT for cooperating with warrantless wiretapping.
Wow, nothing else?
Trying to determine if the Droid 4, Droid Razr, or Defy would work.
The Defy is a decent phone and really the only Moto on T-Mobile I could recommend, assuming you can find one. They are outdated as far as stock, but the Devs have kept the software up to date and are even working on ICS/CM9. I don't think the Droid models would work on a T-Mo network at all.
Get a HTC amaze and use the screen off and lock app.. then use go locker or something that allows using power AND volume buttons etc for waking.. thanks to the separate video and camera buttons you'll be up to 5 buttons configurable as power.. besides I think they (htc) are the best made phones

I have an HTC sensation, which HTC has made 2 updated versions, the XL and something else but i have the standard one, but its 4g, 4.3" screen, hd 1080p video recording, 8mp camera, and when running the elegancia Rom which is great quality you get ics plus lots of features, call recording, WiFi calling, volume button awake. It's really a great phone, id get the newer version XL, its got a 1.5ghz processor plus more ram, I think a gig over my standard sensation with a 1.2ghz and 756mb ram. Both are great, I'm sure you can get a regular sensation for 300 bucks somewhere on the web.
Also HTC released the HTC One, don't know if they are for t-mobile, but they are the cream of the crop for the HTC line. Gonna be pricey but well worth it.

If you really want to look for some more selection, try researching phones made for the Japanese market.
Many NTT Docomo phones have the needed 1700/2100 frequencies needed for T-Mobile 3G in the United States. I have heard of people running some of their Sharp and Toshiba phones here without issue.
Thanks all.
I have lost all confidence in HTC. GPS has never worked, mic quality is not good, and this chronic power button problem that I have sent it in four times for. Now they charge me. No more. They ditch me -- I ditch them.
I like the MIUI.us rom best, and have the vol keys set to wake. (built-in to the rom) Use Toggles to lock it. This is tolerable for now. Has recording and all the other niceties. I think it's the most advanced rom out there.
I've used Motorola phones since cellular service began, and they only ever failed if I broke them. I trust the Motorola phones and wish they worked with T-Mobile more. I will stay with T-Mobile as they did not cooperate with the government's unConstitutional warrantless wiretapping.
I'll check out the Defy. Maybe I can wait a while to see whether Moto comes out with something better. I wonder whether the Photon would work on T-Mo?
You are judging HTC off of a phone that is years old. There are many options for good phones on T-mobile. The Galaxy S2, the Galaxy Nexus if you want to pay for that, the Nexus S. I just came from the HTC Glacier which was amazing all the way around. Great GPS, no hardware issues whatsoever and a huge dev community. The Sensation is a great phone, better than the amaze from the research I have done. Almost all newer phones available aren't going to have GPS issues, so go to a store and pick which one feels better in your hands.
I am judging HTC for a phone that I paid $550 for which never could do GPS or compass, and which has a chronic and recurring power button failure that is a known design problem which HTC refuses to repair without ransom.
If a company intentionally refuses to correct their own glaring mistakes, it is dishonorable and they are no longer worthy of trust. Maybe I am just old-fashioned, and you youngsters see GETTING SCREWED BY CORPORATIONS as a natural state of life...
I do not. HTC ditches me, so I ditch HTC, and tell my friends.
A couple years ago I bought a Jaguar XK-8, a $76,000 car. Two years later it turned out that the timing chain tensioners (made of plastic) were failing on all those engines. Well that is a $15,000 repair. Jag refused to stand behind their car, and so many of us who can afford their cars, have turned our backs on them. As Dubya says, Fool Me Once... {splutter, gork} ... eh Ya Can't Fool Me Again.
I notice on Samsung's website you can buy either a
Galaxy Note™ II Standard Battery (3100mA)http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EB595675LABXAR
or
Galaxy Note™ II Standard Battery (3100mA) (Verizon & US Cellular)http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EB595675LZBXAR
I was just wondering if anybody had any insight of what the differences could be, thanks in advance.
I have the US Cellular one (which that non-standard battery is supposed to cover).
Same mAh, same voltage. Obviously they used the same stock photo for both on that site. Could be pin positioning or form factor. We'd have to get a Verizon/USCC battery beside another type's to see.
Part Number on each match... My guess is that it's the same battery.
My guess would be that it's similar to the Galaxy Nexus. The battery is positioned slightly different in the phone, so it needs a different size or pin position to work with the layout. Anyone have actual pictures of both batteries side by side for comparison?
I hope they are the same, because I was going to order the charging kit which I guess comes with the standard battery. Meh, I'm getting it on Verizon so I unfortunately have plenty of time to call and check just to be sure.
I'm not positive, but when I had my Droid I think the battery placement was different, like stated above. However, this was due to the lack of a sim card so the position was slightly different. Upon looking at the photos of the note 2 sim slot, it doesn't look like this would be an issue.
However, it is Verizon, so maybe they made a slightly different battery to put in some more proprietary logos.
The part numbers are the same so I would assume they were the same (but possibly with a different pin position).
Another possibility is that the Verizon version will have NFC in the battery like the S3 vs having it in the battery door like the rest of the Note2 versions.
Okay, this will leak soon anyways so I might as well just post it up here.
Verizon's battery is actually very different than the other carrier's versions. I'm a Senior Customer Experience Manager within Verizon's corporate structure. The company has made some major breakthroughs regarding power management and they will be showcased first on the Galaxy Note 2 from Samsung.
I know this is hard to believe but read through and you'll understand. Verizon's Galaxy Note 2 battery is actually charged with sound in a way. It sounds farfetched, but I'll tell you how it works. The battery has a copper charging coil similar to other wireless charging standards, the hardware is tuned to a very specific frequency which you can reach specifically when you scream the phrase "VERIZON WIRELESS" in an open, public area. Unfortunately, due to the light in the VZW branded home button(which can be seen from space), the battery discharges pretty much immediately during use, but the good news is this. As long as you keep screaming "VERIZON WIRELESS" at the top of your lungs in crowded public areas without stopping for more than 2 seconds at a time, the phone maintains a charge! Like MAGIC! Amazing! You can also buy an $80 conveinence adapter that verizon has designed in conjunction with samsung. Another first in the field of consumer electronics, it's a suppository! You place the adapter inside your a%&hole and power is generated off of the energy being depleted from your broken spirit as a verizon customer! All of this will be released with the note in 3-7 months, this is of course after the delays we will experience due to branding and wiring the home buttons.
We at Verizon really wish you as customers didn't demand home button branding so we could get these out to you faster, but we are happy to do anything and everything we can to fulfill our customers slightest whim.

With the price being the same, I couldn't imagine there being much difference feature-wise. My guess would be that they're keeping them separate simply for initial supply reasons.

Yes. But it looks like all the other batteries follow the same pattern. If it's a Verizon battery it has a Z in that spot vs the "regular" one has an A. Not sure what it means but it's different for a reason I'm sure. Even if the battery is identical, could just be a distribution thing.

Some past VZW phones have had device specific batteries, but some other versions did work with it, even though they had a different number on them.
I just ordered the charger and battery combo from Samsung and it says it's compatible with Sprint, t-mobile, Verizon, US Cellular and AT&T. So this sucker better work with the Verizon model. I wanted to take advantage of the 50% off.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EB-H1J9VMAGSTA?
I too am considering the extra battery/charger combo and maybe one other accessory from Samsung's site with the 50% off promo. Funny how the battery alone costs the same as the battery w/ charger unit.

Samsung's own website says it's compatible with the Verizon model. We need to squash these battery rumors with an actually comparison.
Hi together, i just noticed that the "non-verizon branded" Version of our ADR6410 seems to be available in the wild (-> on ebay.com) ... that seems to still have the identical specs as the verizon version and NOT the down-spec'ed like that "desire vc".
appologies for just snapping the pics from an ebay-offer, but it's just to show it to you for reference! HTC logo instead of our "verizon-mark". no idea about roms or unlocks for that modified ADR6410-LRA (from my side) of course. :fingers-crossed:
according to the seller:
As you see - the unit is a "6410LRA". The "LRA" stands for "LTE Across Rural America." This was ORIGINALLY a Verizon product but it was passed on to smaller regional carriers. This unit WILL NOT, NOT, NOT, NOT work on the Verizon (or Sprint) Network - NOT! You WILL need a SIM Card from one of the Regional networks to use this phone (SIM Card NOT Included) and even then we make NO guarantees of this phone being able to work on any Carrier. There are some carriers this MIGHT work on but we don't know which ones. When a Unit is Powered Up NO Carrier logo comes on the screen.

i'm just not sure if the unluck (root etc) would work the same way. alas, not much to worry about it for myself ... since i already have my Dinc4G and here in Europe you can't buy them (regularily anyhow). was just wondering ^^
very disappointed with this phone
HTC has been disappointing me HARD as of late..
Not sure if switching back over was the right move, Samsung was great, except when they locked the s4 bootloader and there is $5,000 bounty not being claimed yet, so i doubt itll come, id rather dump this if no S-OFF and get the s4 dev edition..
I have one of these, and purchased it at an independent cell company here in east KY. So far it seems to be a good phone. Signal is good, and has all the specs I need for my use. Battery life is excellent I've been one of AT&T's faithful since the Cingular days back in the early 90's. However, just to be blunt, AT&T coverage has dropped by at least 50% over the past 5 years - hence my reason to take a stab at App Wireless App Wireless is locally owned, and actually is the oldest provider in this area. The only issue is they are somewhat higher in rates, and initial cost is higher. With that being said......
I'd love to make the switch. I still have a few months under contract with AT&T, but would be willing to pay the ETF fee. Even though App Wireless is higher in pricing, the coverage more than makes up for it. I'd much rather pay $70 for 95% coverage as to pay $50 for 50% coverage
I really need to get this thing rooted Basically just to install programs on an ext4. It surprised me as to the programs that will install to the external SD card automatically, but there are just those few that won't. Searching the forums I can't find a definitive answer on this phone. I have found where its been done on the Verizon branded, and the HTC Desire VC, plus... even the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE.
I've searched this and other forums - is there ANYWHERE posted that this phone has successfully been rooted?
Just wanted to let everyone know that I decided to be a "rabbit", and take a chance on my new HTC Desire 4G LTE - at least that's what the independent carrier calls it. It is similar to the HTC Desire VC they offer, but the specs are closer to the HTC Droid Incredible 4g LTE.
Anyway, whenever I plugged it into a program of sorts, it recognized it as the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE. The big difference being the Hinc is a model from Verizon, ADR6410VZW. Mine is a ADR6410LTA.
All of the other specs are identical with the exception of the CID. The Verizon is a VZW__001 that mosts posts say to SuperCID it to 11111111 to root, but the ADR6410LRA is a UTSI_005. Therefore a lot of the steps are not needed.
As of right now, my bootloader is unlocked, and the phone is rooted, and everything is working fine. I also installed TWRP. So....for those that have the LRA version instead of the Verizon, everything here applies and will work fine.
Thought this may help a few.
