« on: June 17, 2011, 01:11:49 PM »
Hi all,

Looking at getting a new HTC as my blackberrys playing up big time, does anyone have a HTC? Its a windows phone so im hoping it would work with the music side of the Blue&me.

My HTC Desire worked fine. I would avoid Windows mobile apparently it has alot of bugs needing ironed out. Stick with Android its great, I just changed the Desire for the Samsung Galaxy S2, its amazing, blows everything else on the market out of the water and works fine with blue & me. :)

HTC Desire HD here and it works fine with B&M, amongst the huge list of phones that doesn't support the message reader but I can't see that ever beeing a deal breaker

Happy with my Desire but if I was buying now Id get the Samsung Galaxy 2. If you definitely want a windows phone Id get the Samsung Omnia 7. My wife has it. Great screen and the windows software is slick and stylish, can't really be compared to previous incarnations if Windows mobile software.

My better half had the Sam and the touch screen didn't last the year out. Sam said it's a common problem.

im using my HTC HD2 to post this now, works fine with B&M and it uses Windows operating system. The software has been updated by downloading direct from HTC so no bugs either

Had the Desire working fine until this month and now the entire freakin' system has gone haywire. No Bluetooth connectivity and as for the stero, I am guesssing a small imp has taken control from within the car's body somewhere because I'll be damned if I choose when it can be turned on. And yes, I have tried to sort through the menu......
