Although HTC disclosed only 448MB of RAM on HTC HD2, but it actually has 576MB of RAM which is unlocked by powerusers over at XDA. With this extra ram, performance of the device can be increased further. User g.lewarne has posted a few tips to increase the performance of HD2.

These tips are meant to run HTC Sense more smoother, improves album art scrolling in landscape mode, much smoother font rendering. Also the ever lagging opening of the Windows folder is shortened to only half a second.

He also cautioned that this is only for devices with 576MB RAM & unsuitable for 1.66 roms as will necessitate a hard reset.

Head over to XDA for all the tips

Who doesn’t like to get the most out of his windows mobile device. Its very satisfying to make your phone work like the way you want to. Windows phones do offer various customization options & advanced settings which are buried deep below, making it very hard for a newbie to find them. The author of TechCredo was also a newbie in early October 09 but since then he has learnt various tweaks for his device. In his guide he has given a very easy & nicely detailed tutorial for all his knowlegde to tweak WM devices.

Parts of this guide might be old news if you are experienced with Windows Mobile and have an interest for your cell-phone. The Guide will be updated whenever there are more useful things to, so check back. Many of the tweaks and tutorials require a registry editor. I recommend the one that accompanies Resco Explorer or SKTools. Freeware choices are PHM Registry Editor and Total Commander. Alternatively, you can also change most settings without manually altering the registry by using the tweaking tools, which might be preferable, though instructions for both methods are provided. All the tweaks and software are tested and working on WM 6.1 Professional (SE Xperia X1).
