HTC 7 Mozart Delayed on Telstra to November
Well it seems that HTC’s manufacturing delay affecting Windows Phone 7 devices has hit Australia. Specifically it has hit the HTC 7 Mozart and the HTC HD7 on Telstra.
Initially the plan was for Telstra to launch the HTC 7 Mozart on October 21 but only a few stores recieved limited stock. The Telstra store in my local area had a launch party planned for the 19th of October for Windows Phone 7 but that was cancelled and on October 21 there were no devices available, only dumby models.
Today I called Telstra to see if I can order the Mozart over the phone but it turns out the HTC 7 Mozart has been delayed till November the 7th. That’s right, November the 7th a full 2 weeks after it was ment to launch. Instead the LG Optimus 7Q is available, which is strange because the press release on October the 11th stated that the LG was coming in early novmeber. See for yourself here.
How about the HD7? Well the above press release states that the HD7 is launching in the coming months exclusive to Telstra. Well I have also been informed that Telstra has no stock coming until after Christmas which likely means sometime in January.
It seems that HTC has some serious issues with their Windows Phone 7 devices for such large delays to be occuring. I hope that these delays mean better quality devices than they were intending to launch.
I recieved the above information from Telstra Customer Service over the phone today.
Are other countries seeing similar delays of HTC windows phone devices?
Reader Request: Standard WM 6.5.5 ROM for HD2
With the recent release of the LG Fathom, a very vanilla Windows Phone, with hardly any third party software, reader Alamfour has a request for something similar for the HTC HD2.
Hi All,
Could one of the cooks please create a ROM similar to the following?
I have a need for a Vanilla WM 6.5.5 ROM. That is without sense, htc comm manager, or any htc customizations that are not essential for the ROM.
I would like no Youtube app and viewing youtube videos from m.youtube.com enabled as they are currently disabled and they redirect to youtube app. Also when viewing Youtube videos in IE and I try to go full screen it goes to fullscreen portrate mode, could landscape fullview be enabled also?
If their is already a ROM like this could someone please point me in the right direction as I have been searching for a few weeks now and found none. I did try Energy ROM titanium but it was too customized for my liking.
I would prefer not to have to cook my own ROM as I am not very good at it. I used to cook my own ROM’s for my Touch Diamond but I always had problems so I have given up on cooking.
Thank you
Does anyone have a favourite vanilla HTC HD2 ROM? Let us know below.
