  • Hello, i have a problem with cellphone, i can't use it anymore, i can just receive calls, but i can't do anything more beacause when i switch on my cellphone it is telling that i have a problem with my memory: Storage card not working, The message alert that shows on tells this: "Storage card not working your storage card has changed, is damaged,or is non-compliant". and then the advice from the cellphone alert screen is like: "To fix this, turn off your phone and either remove the storage card or replace it with a new compliant card. Then you'll need to reset your phone to the original factory settings." but i'm just surprised to see that this is persisting because i have already did all and, replaced with another storage card but this is not functionning and i'm very blocked! So if you can have some solutions paths,you can always help me to settle this right, please, i beg you! ""

  • It can be upgraded to Mango, but you will not be able to get Windows Phone 8 on it, as WP8 will require higher specs (dual core processors etc).

  • can any one inform me, whether this model HD7 S, can be upgraded to Windows 7.5 Mango or Windows 8 ?

  • Pls go on with htc....great phone bcos ive used HtcHd7,desire,desireshd,and currently using the htc sensation.

  • HTC is coming up. Iv used HTC before and their build quality is great! Go for HTC with android OS...

  • Hi, As an owner of multiple HTC phones(latest ones), Iphone, BBerry 9900; If you have Iphone4 or 4S, pls stay with that. Do not touch any WM7 phone. If you still want to migrate to HTC Android, then pls do not touch any 4G compatible HTC if you are living outside of US since they drops calls after 5sec. (owned both Amaze4G, Vivid). Sensation XE is much better among the others but its battery getting hot in a very short time. So far, EVO 3D is the best one if you can stand its thickness & 170gr weight. Actually Amaze 4G is the best one in all aspects but the signal problem cannot be put aside. So, as I said, if you are a 4 or 4S owner, then I suggest you to stay with that until HTC Edge comes :)

  • Hi. I need someone opinion. I am lost in between 2 phones. I use to love iphone, but now my mind is chaning to htc. i never used htc phone so can anyone tell me about the htc if it is amazing phone or not?

  • it jst htc want us to buy and still wish the latest htc which hav front video 4 video call lik htc touch hd t8282 blackstone wif window mobil 6.5 sinc 2008 i hav one...so the htc hd7 or hd7s ar very bad coz dont get menu office and bad blutooth and you need zune to synchroniz it wif pc dont hav wifi routeur....i never wontit

  • Yes, you can upgrade to Mango for free.

  • Yes, the screen is Gorilla glass. It is very scratch resistant.

  • Does it allow upgrade to 7.5 (Mango)?

  • Does this have scratchless screen?

  • Can the internal antenna be adjusted in any way? I have ZERO signal in my house with this phone....was using my old Sony Walkman phone until my replacement arrived & it has full bars....why are the "smart phones" not so smart when it comes to signal strength???

  • I have tried with my Mac (running Lion OS X) and it did not pair correctly no matter how I tried.

  • does this phone have the file transfer feature available through bluetooth?

  • Hd7 is that best mobile and may language too the help thanks for HTC

  • My dad got this free from swiftactions dot com yesterday.But its HD7 not HD7S

  • Why does all theses HTC windows phone don't come with a front camera. When they should because they have window 7 on them.

  • yes, it has office on it ;)

  • friends,can i make video call from HTC HD7 and let me know about performance.

  • Windows Phone 7 has integred outlook if u wanted to know it.

  • Dear HTC, pls kindly advise me whether Mobile Phone HTC HD7S have function for MICROSOFT OFFICE OUTLOOK ?? Your prompt reply is highly appreciated. Lubis

  • The Windows Phone 7 Update with Zune make my phone useless and dead, before update it was incredible fast and responsive, but with some lacks of signal loss and bugs. I think Microsoft and HATCH should consider a deep review of the update procedure and signal quality.

  • Animation on Windows Phone not use Flash but Silverlight from Microsoft..

  • HTML5 will kill flash trought few years...

  • Have you even used a WindowsPhone before? They are really responsive, sure they lack flash but that's temporary. Really easy and user friendly UI, GREAT camera (Actually did some test shots and compared the HD7 to the 8MP HTC Sensation and the HD7's were more crisp and vibrant even if at a lower pixel count) All the major apps ARE available in the marketplace, Netflix, IMDB, eBay, BloghuB, FIM to name a few and with Skype's aquisition by MS it's coming with the Mango update later this year.

  • There are a lot of problems, for the one who have it. messaging is very simple! sent items and inbox messages are in the same position and it's very bad for the one who use it very much. I am so sorry, but I want to give an offer. there are a lot of basic programs that this kind of HTC needs to run and active completely. The sellers are such a bad people and we always need them to run owr cell phones. I suggest that, if you put the programms(especially BLUTOOTH) in them and activate it yourself, it might be so better for us to buy and use this beautiful and useful Mobile phone. thanks alot [email protected]

  • the only thing wrong with desire /hd7 is sound levels are to low .

  • battery sucks, just imagin 4.3 inch screen with 1250ma comparing 4inch samsung focus with 1500ma

  • Just one problem. It ships with a virus! Namely Windows mobile 7!!

  • HTC Mozart vs HTC HD7S only display size and internal storage difference...no other difference. Due to size difference HTC Mozart display is better.

  • Battery plz

  • HTC battery life is , 1 day if you use the Internet Connection(and that sucks a lot. because you have re-charge your phone)and about 2 or 3 days with it!!!!!

  • 3 Major problems with HTC: 1)- Screen 2)- Battery 3)- Speakers. Thnx

  • Why only 1230 mAh ??? Such a big phone could easily handle 2000 mAh or even more. It looks like HTC deliberately shortens battery life in their phones...

  • HTC! battery life please! wake up! open you big eyes battery life please!

  • From my inserted 32 GB SD card that should read!

  • So I will play my 20 GB of music files over a data conenction while sitting below ground on a tube train? MS really don't think things through! What makes this even more ridiculous is that my 6.5 phone did this fine of course! Hence why I now sue Android. Purely down to the MS no longer meeting my needs I'm afraid. Doubly so with 64GB SDXC cards just having been announced.

  • Stand-by Up to 276 h Talk time Up to 4 h 30 min seriously? ..is that a phone?

  • how abt camera?. will it be better than HD7?.

  • I'm also a HTC user and their phones are great but on all WP phones persists a problem with battery.. Why 1230mah?? This phone requires 1600 for a use without problems.. Hope hd7s differs at energy efficiency from hd7..

  • This phone is horribel, it does not support adobe flash player, how can a windows phone not support adobe flash player....and many apps like whatsapps is not available for this phone, highly not reccomended!!!

  • only difference is S LCD instead of LCD

  • HD7S have skype or not?

  • Good point Amul, I am also starting to look more and more at these values. I have constantly been having an annoying headache when using certain phones, now with more reports coming out about possible dangers, I am starting to feel there might actually be quite some trouble ahead for many of us. Every new technology had its victims... think of how radiation was dealt with in the early years... nobody cared about protection.

  • Hi HTC team, No doubt you make the best phones,i am big fan of HTC mobiles you are best in technology, design and applciations. But one request is to please release the devices which has lower SAR ratios less than 0.50 EU. i am unable to buy because of only this issue. After all safety come first than the look.

  • I love this device, works fast and features are incredible. Go get one buddy!!!!!!

  • Check out the display type man. HD7 has LCD while HD7S has SLCD. Short for Super Liquid Crystal Display.

  • S-LCD is different from LCD

  • Windows phone 7 is great but lack of many important features. No tethering and no personal wifi hotspot. No way to search calendar, making it stupid. Can't search contacts other than name field. Can't direct sync to outlook (this is the biggest surprise. Who on earth will think microsoft phone can't sync directly to microsoft outlook. iphone does it). I am waiting for mango update and if the above features still lack, I am switching to iphone.

  • just S-LCD display replaced

  • no MicroSD slot it is a retreat many steps backward

  • I don't see any different between the Features of HD7S and HD7.

  • no

  • @Maresh no its a single sim Phone .

  • is there outlook in this phone??? pls help me.

  • what's the difference between this and hd7 please reply ...and should i wait to get a wp7 smartphone or this is good ?

  • i suggest you use the cloud features of the phone, you won't need the sd card.. :)

  • is this a dual sim phone? please reply

  • goood phone clarity is must

  • Guys, just two questions... Is the battery life of this phone good? Signal strength, internal/external speakers are loud and good enough? Reply me thank you

  • video of the mango update

  • It looks damn sexy! But it's useless, at least for me, without a card slot because I have numerous documents which needs to be copied from my computer. I have used and dumped an HD7 for the same reason! Or is it like they have documents sync in this phone?

  • No Japanese/Korean/Chinese support/keyboard? So 1980's! God HTC really sucks now, and to think they used to be so good. They'll end up doing a RIM if they continue to think people expect last year's models today - oh wait this phone is from 2 years ago?!!!

  • Standard Li-Ion 1230 mAh battery only that carries the Windows 7, 1 GHz Scorpion processor CPU, 4.3" 16m colors touch LCD, and 16gb of internal storage of the phone? Perhaps the battery is nuclear-powered.

  • So buy dude Nokia 2610. It's for you.

  • LOL, are u kidding me HTC made an exact copy of the HD7 and just added an S-LCD display, lolol what a waste. plus i saw the HD7 phone in telstra shop, i gotta say it is the widest phone in the world. u can eat off these wide phones HTC make

  • Finally, Windows 7 based phone, I am fed up with Android synchronization, was waiting for next Windows based phone for a long time. I'm going to go for it.

  • I know it's not much but believe me, any other phone as powerful as this one dies in just a day, I charge mine every hight and I don't have any problems with it. This Phone is well worth it! I have a HTC HD7 but this beast with a magnificent screeen is pure awesomness!

  • Beautiful phone but the only thing i hate about it is the kickstand. I wish it had one similar to that of the Thunderbolt or none at all. It's the only factor that stopped me from getting this phone:(

  • old gpu and very poor battery,is this a mid range phone?

  • i m looking for apps make ringtone still i can't find how to make on ringtone?

  • HD7 n HD7s same to same both have S-LCD, 5mp, 480X800 1gb snapD. who they are trying to fool. and WP7 is behind to android only because of lack of customizations and applications or else WP7 is smooth like a jelly. speach recog. is par superior to any other OS. Nokia will do a fancy job for WP7 until then all HD2 switch their sets from WP7 to Nand android. and huh! read my lips. NO ONE LIKE THE IDEA OF SYNCING THROUGH A SOFTWARE. ALL WE NEED IS PLUG AND PLAY!!! thats where Iphone sucked big time.

  • Neahhh....go for Nokia phones, if you want a phone that you want to used even after 5 years

  • "S" from Same St...d Standard Batery

  • Kiddin me HTC a batery of 1230mah at 4,3 screen :| jouking now???? Just for that I'm not going to buy one , same standard stupidbatery...this guy's sould put biget batery's in ...like samsung those guys they put 1500mAh bat

  • htc desire hd

  • "s" mean successor

  • i like this model

  • It's probably just a copy and paste job from the HD7 specs on the T-Mobile version.

  • 1230 mAh??? C'mon HTC, the same battery is on Desire HD and last only 10 hours with heavy usage :(

  • hmm.. isn't 1700/2100 T-Mobile AWS band?

  • Is it possible to add android version for this phone.

  • No dual core, no Asian language input, hardware is from 2009's HD2, great OS but if it doesn't even support different languages then their customer base is close to zero. HTC is Taiwan based, ironic.

  • So why are both the HD7 and HD7S resolution spec the same (480x800)?

  • Why HTC HD7 s is not equiped with Front cam was windows 7 doesn't have the feature support?????...

  • I though the bands for At&T included the 850Mhz for 3G...is there anyway to confirm that?

  • This phone has the new Super LCD screen.

  • Guys this is For AT&T only

  • The new HD7 s is NOT the same it has an upgraded Higher resolution screen....;)

  • My previous post applies to you too.

  • You fail. HD7 has a normal TFT LCD. HD7S has a Super LCD display.

  • the spec is the same, but this phone is made for AT&T, thats why it have a S at the back

  • no 3g 850 mhz???????

  • Thats specs are not officiall, it seems like HD7s will has dual core processor. :)

  • Windows Mobile 7 Sucks. Give us more Android HTC!

  • if you compaire the specs off this and the hd7 there is no diffrance other than this phone has an s after the hd7 so what is the point in this phone still no video call capabilty and with the app and windows mobile 7 still very poor and not that meany off them id still have to go with an adroid based phone

  • HD7S is the AT&T version of the HTC HD7 and comes with an S-LCD screen instead of the standard one that comes with the HD7 model. The specs do not reflect this change from the standard HD7.

  • The specs are exactly the same as the HD7. the only difference it has an S at the end of its name. i fail to see why it is launched if it is going to be the exact same

  • Mmmmmm actually i dunno...good specs, but not the best! Further more, interface of Win7 looks silly.
