I dont have one but having plenty of mobile phones, its normal for the battery to get warm whilst on charge. My N95 8gb gets very warm when charging and also when im on the phone. Havent had any issues with the general day to day running of it.
Also wanted to ask because i havent seen anyone ask this question and seeing you have one mate, whats the phone call quality like?? ie when you are making a call??...is the earpiece loud enough and the quality of the sound??.

Good question. I'd like an answer to that too.
I think my Touch got hot on occasions too, so I'd expect that with the Touch Diamond because it's even thinner.
earpiece is ok for phone call.
Confirm...warm in charge and in data connect
i can confirm the warmness of the phone while its charging and heavy datause but thats expected, the Kaiser was worse
also the Phone call quality is quite good... nice and loud
Great thanks for the feedback...think im almost close to buying one...just need to get rid of my Nokia N95 8GB phone now...Going to put it up on ebay for £270 unlocked and sim free.
Hi guys,
For those unfortunate owners of HTC HD7? Any updates on the camera and sound issues.
The camera does not focus properly on distant objects not very far though.
The sound on the speakers is weak during calls. Need a booster app.
Thanks,
Get the Sound Enhancer app in the HTC Hub. I haven't used it yet but it gets good reviews.

Do you even own a HTC HD7. the sound enhancer app is just to control equalizer settings.

I'd highly recommend re-thinking your thread starting structure. You're not going to get many answers if you begin like this.
I personally believe (and you'll probably find 99% of other users who frequent the HD7 section of these forums feel the same) that there isn't a better device on the market today. So to call us "unfortunate owners" is kind of insulting.
But i'll tell you what i've told others on similar threads, i personally haven't noticed any problems with the camera and i haven't really noticed the volume not being loud enough. Perhaps it's due to personal use, or maybe you've got a dodgy device, i dunno.

Yes, I do own an HD7, and no, it's not really for just EQ settings. In fact, unless I'm mistaken, you only get EQ options when you use headphones.
It allows you to Choose Dolby or SRS for both Audio and Video. Equalizer specifically says for headphones or external speakers only. If you want to lump Dolby and SRS into that definition, fine.
All I can say, is that it makes quite a difference when playing youtube or netflix. Quite noticable.
( I use SRS )
you guys know if the htc 7 surround has a better camera? i heard the camera on this was horrid. may be getting the hd7 soon

Same here. What i would like to see is Windows Phone 7 OS on nokia devices. that would be a real winner and viable threat to Apple and Google.
But that is never going to happen i guess.

To be honest it isn't like he isn't somewhat justified. I mean how can you mess up the speaker and camera on a phone that is nearly identical to its predacesor. My old school touch pro 2 speaker must be at least 3 times louder than this and the camera is just a joke. I put it side by side with an hd2 and it was like night and day.

its mostly to do with the software. yeah i had the htc pure and the speaker was awesome in it. the camera is awesome on my mytouch 4g, the software is also awesome on sense. WP7 has sh*t camera software. thats all our cameras our pretty much, crappy cameras, and software to make them look good. Nokia is the only company that has made cell phone camera that are actually good without the software. and the touch pro two had two speakers in the back, or thats what i remember lol. it was one of the big features of it, just like the HTC surround. the HD7 has the big screen, thats the feature. HTC wont put all their quality into one phone cause then nobody would but the rest. you want good speaker - surround, you want big screen - HD7, you want awesome keyboard - HTC 7 pro, etc. they wont make a phone with a nice keyboard, perfect screen size, amoled screen, good speaker all into one. the closest they got is the incredible.

we've known the old desire(dhd inc)'s speaker is almost a crap.hope htc do well this time.
it is the only point that may break my deal!
Interested to know this too. Although some have said it seems ok I would like to hear from anyone who can directly compare it to the DHD or the original Desire.

yes. but i don't think "ok" is enough,as that can mean they don't care about the loudspeaker/sound quality. hope they compare to samsung or nokia devices.
Had a play today - speaker is pathetic. Just like the Desire so HTC have learned nothing here!
It seems you can compare the speaker on the IncredibleS with the Desire, Z & HD. That's really a shame.
Currently I'm still on the Touch Pro2 mainly because the speaker quality is actually pretty good. Was thinking on buying the DesireZ a while ago but decided to skip it due to the bad speaker. Now the IncredibleS suffers the same problem.
Wonder if my next device will be an HTC. But look at the alternative. Devices from Samsung and LG suffer from LED notifications. What's wrong with these manufacturers?
The saga continues...
Not at all .....i have both phones and the incredible s is noticeably different to desire hd....i mean its no beats by dre.....but there is a noticeabe improvement.....when holding both phones hand in hand and playing same song.....you can barely hear the really tinny sound of dhd over the sound of incredible s.......dont get nme wrong there is till a lot of room for improvement by htc
I dont have a DHD but had the original desire and the incredible s is definitely better sounding from the speaker phone. Its not great & I wouldn't listen to music without decent headphones but it is improved none the less. I only use it for sat nav & its perfectly fine for that.
Well this is encouraging. My time with the Incredible S was very brief and the sounds demo'd to me were those that come on the card. When I asked for a demo of the speakerphone the assistant was unable to make a call so I wasn't able to test this.
Interesting, if it really is better than the DHD it may just be worth a shot for me ... Sat nav instructions were barely understandable from the Desire when I had it due to the poor quality - one of the reasons I ditched the original Desire and also the DHD.

It is a tad bit louder that DHD but i think the noticeable improvement is depth of music...for instance the DHD will just sort of play snares and lound sharp sounds where as the incredible s has a wider range of sounds that you can hear

That's kind of what I was hoping for but is not something I was able to hear from the time I spend with the IS. Guess it needs more thorough testing to appreciate the differences.

Sat-Nav is one of the main features of the phone for me, I used it on the Hero all the time but the screen was tiny. I use Co-Pilot, and the instructions are nice and clear for me, and the bigger screen makes a huge difference.

Hmm as for sat nav i doubt either phone will really be on par for such a task on the audio front but as stated Incredible S has shown some improvement in music quality....but to be able to play turn by turn direction over car noise and traffic.....i doubt it will.
Also...
Visually both phones are good......as for use as a sat nav....the DHD has a larger screen for maps etc but the Incredible S has a better anti glare screen and much more vivid colours.....
Played with the HTC Incredible S. Loudspeaker is better than on the DesireHD. But my HTC TouchPro2 is still louder and the has more "body".
Currently also looking at the Optimus 2X by LG. This has a better sound chip. But haven't tested this in real life just yet.

It looks like recent HTC products have speaker problem (at least it happens on my nexus one and MT4), but my TP2 doesn't.
The speaker on the I-S is without doubt 1000 times better than the garbage HTC put on the DHD.
The DHD speakerwas rubbish for music and I could never hear youtube videos without cupping my hand over the back of the phone but still to no avail.
Having got an I-S the first thing I did was compare the two side by side, and I cant even hear the DHD playing due to the loudness, clarity and depth of the I-S when both on SRS ...such an improvement, well done HTC.
For such a good phone, HTC really did betray the customer with what they put in the DHD...yes, its great with earphones, but who always wants to put earphones in..do they think nobody ever wants to show other ppl things they are watching.
Anyway, that isnt the only area of supremacy IMHO..the screen is much better, I dont know if its cos its smaller, but its clearer, not washed out, and has colour depth comparative to SAMOLED...you dont realise how bad the DHD screen is until they are side by side..you feel as if you have been robbed from day 1.
The viewing angles are amazing on the I-S cos of these issues too, clearly viewable at all acute angles.
The moulded handset is very comfortable, lighter which is betteras regardless of what ppl say, why would anyone want a heavier handset????
The lip around the screen is much better than the DHD too, almost non existent, certainly not noticeable...the on off button is more distinct too.
I dint mean to bash the DHD, Im just annoyed as I bought one when it first came out and it was very expensive and apart from the solid build quality, HTC really did rob the purchaser at every level...so my contentness with the I-S is a consolation
I think the speaker is pretty good as well!
But then again, I'm coming from the Xperia X10 so quite everything is better on this phone! xD
Such an awesome toy
hell ye, the speaker is banging
Having used the HTC Desire HD and Desire Z, and now having switched to Incredible S I can say both the earpiece and the speaker phone are way better on the Incredible S.
I also used the TP2....the earpiece on the I-S is as good as the TP2. The speaker phone is not as good...as I have not seen any phone with a speaker phone as good as the TP2 till date (that was awesome).
Having said that, the speaker phone is quite decent on a stand alone basis and any day better than the D-HD which was SH*T!!!

I've had my Xperia Z for 2 days and when im on call the sound is very low and crap compared to my samsung galaxy mini 2 Why is this expensive phone crap against a cheap phone? Also when listening to music the volume is crap and fails to beat other devices. I might get a refund today.

I noticed that the in call quality was not very good, than I noticed that I didn't hold the device correctly with a minor adjustment it sounded much better. I think this is because the ear speaker is pretty small so it is easy to muffle it with a part of your face/ear. For music listing via ear phones and head phones I think the volume is loud enough as I never had to put it over 80% but I'm not deaf and have always been relatively careful with my ears.
Many reviews have mentioned about the poor speaker and not so good call quality. I guess it's due to being water-resistant, the speaker grill blocks most of the sound.
I also find that the volume through headphones is also weak. At maximum, the loudness is only half of my iPhone 4s

First of all, stop using the word crap in every sentence. It's not "cool".
Volume is and will be lower because of waterproof body - it was obvious and that info is not a secret.
Volume through headphones is not low - and it wasn't made to "beat" other devices. It beats most of them in sound quality, and I'm pretty sure that's what Sony was aiming at. With the headset that came with the phone it is lower than most, but that's because it has high independence value ( strong speakers ). Connect your Samsung headset and you'll see no difference - at least I don't see it with Note 2 headset, the volume is exactly the same - but on Sony's headset it is lower.
Did the Arc not originally have very poor sound and was then was fixed with an update? Mine should arrive tomorrow, whats's the comparison between the two?

I have mate, nothing seems to work.. the quality isn't good enough. My cousin has been researching for me because it's waterproof the sound isn't high enough. I showed my xperia z to my friends today they said the phone has amazing graphics but the sound and design fails it.. also when you press on the screen you can see those pixel things popping up :/ but when i do that on my friends Note 2 it doesn't happen.

I had the same problem, i could barely hear the caller on the other end and for that reason alone im exchanging for the HTC One, i loved everything else about the phone though, just couldnt get used to the low call volume.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I have to agree with OP, but thats not all, the sound mutes even more, and makes crackling noise like the volume is overdriven even if its very low, its like hearing the speaker for the ear on the top is playing the sound on way to high volume... But its not, its the "external" speaker...
Whats wrong?
Ive tried to reboot and kill all apps to see if something is conflicting with the internal soundcard, no luck.
Its kind of ironic, Sony is a high end TV, Hifi and camera producer, but what ive seen so far is one of the poorest quality all over, everything is years behind Iphone...
Then why have u bought the XZ if u don't know its features etc? Jezz man,go sel it and stop cry'n :banghead:

So one of the feautures is unstable volume/speaker?
I bought it cause i THOUGHT it was the best android phone, and because i work with cross platform app dev and needed to get into the Android system.
Ive been using Iphone for the past 6 years, but i realize now that even iOS might have a boring UI, its lightyears ahead of other phones when it comes to intuitive control, screen quality and stability, but i forgive your ignorance, and im not offended :good:
I also feel the in-call volume is quite soft. Hope someone can make a mod to increase the speaker volume
Don't get me wrong it's just because I used to be ios users all'so and it got boring sooner than expected :thumbdown: but that's not the point...if u still gonna keep your XZ,just wait till 4.2.2 updated comes,with 3.6 kernel its the fix for the 1080p screen n all other good stuff on this baby peace-out

I doubt you can see pixels popping up when you press on the screen, pixels on the Z screen are tiny, and always there they don't pop up and down, every inch (linear inch not square inch) there are 440 pixels. I don't doubt your seeing something though Probably LCD bleed, either you are pressing with great force (something you shouldn't be doing), or the unit is faulty. If it is the latter you should get it replaced under warranty.

No prob dude, just venting back :laugh:
Guys lets be realistic here. OP - you are comparing another phone with a TOTALLY DIFFERENT DAC. The WCD9310 is pretty quite, i totally agree with that but you can't blame it on the whole phone or software... I have tried experiments to increase volume levels, it somehow increases volume levels SLIGHTLY but increasing any further resorts to distortions, DAC popping noises (When you stop any sound, the DAC forces all the vibrations to stop immediately) and background hissing sounds (Too much voltage going on)
The DAC itself cannot handle loud volumes very well but it does a pretty good job at audio quality.
The DAC on the galaxy mini 2, however, is totally different from the DAC in this phone (Not sure what DAC is on the galaxy mini 2). Samsung generally uses Wolfson or "Good" DACs which are able to produce loud sounds without a problem.
The Droid DNA/HTC Butterfly has the same chip and dac as the Xperia Z BUT! it is able to produce louder volumes.. Why?
Well, it's because HTC uses a extra internal amplifier to make sounds much louder. This way, HTC is able to produce much louder volumes with no distortions because of that amplifier.
Next time you choose a phone, make sure it's not using a S4 PRO... or that it's using a WCD9310 DAC...
I'm sure the S800 processor will have a much better DAC (Not sure about S600 though)
Just to clear up a little thing, my concern was not the sound in general, but a bug that comes and goes, it can disappear just from one lock screen session to another.
IF i was to guess, it could be a conflict with a sound enhancement plugin, ive tried to narrow it down to just one in addition to the built in...
So far i didnt notice any improvement, it still comes and goes irregularly...
---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 PM ----------
One more thing, dont know if its pure coinsidence, but it seems to happen after each time i rinse the phone in water... Yes all hatches firmly locked... maybe a auto moisture detection/protection?
I have purchase Xperia Z before 5 days everything is better but volume and WiFi drop signal is bad effect of it,
Before i have Galaxy S3, it's sound volume and WiFi signal are strong. Please tell me how can fix it on xperia z?

and does it have any problems like the g4 boot loop problem?
thanks alot for your help.

I recently purchased mine and I was really happy, particularly with the price I paid.
PROs
Decent CPU
Very good looking phone
NFC & microSD card slot ( couldn't find this on other phones in my price range)
Very well priced if you look around and are lucky
Rear camera is super quick, decent quality
Can be easily rooted, unlocked etc
Front camera is good but I haven't tested extensively (recipients have not complained)
CONS
Could do with more RAM - occasionally notice stutters when multi tasking that my mate's G5 doesn't do
Awkward NFC location, can be configured to work a little better with certain apps
Lacks IR but that's personal
Gets pretty hot during long games or sometimes long youtube sessions (I think it's a design flaw that the CPU copper plate dissipates heat into the LCD no adverse affects yet so it's a guess)
Battery life could be better but does enough to get your through the day if you try
Audio output from the 3.5mm jack is poor, haven't tested bluetooth
So I would say, if you can get it at a good price, go for it particularly if none of those cons matters. The biggest one for me the audio output but my first preference phone wasn't available so I had to take this one.
i got the x performance dual, i love this phone besides this one i would get the xz premium, this is the forst phone i didnt root and do all customr, camera sound battery screen its a great phone very happy with it.

If the XZ is priced similarly I'd get it. Also following up on my earlier post I did test Bluetooth in the car today and it actually works well really well. I'm very happy with it and it is much clearer than my previous phone which had a louder 3.5mm jack output. My car Bluetooth also doesn't support aptx or anything special. Also if you could get the dual SIM variant I'd go with that as 64GB would be awesome but I have my card filled with media anyway
