This phone is a dud. Bluetooth stopped working after 10 days. Dealer says only option is to return it to Telstra for repair, they returned it 2 1/2 weeks later.(no offer of a loaner phone)
2 months later Bluetooth stopped again, same option from dealer. (again no offer of a loaner phone)
On contacting Telstra business complaints Telstra tell me that after 3 attempts to repair they will replace. That means it must breakdown 4 times and I may be without it for almost 8 weeks before it is up for replacement.
To sign someone to a 2 year contract and then supply them with something that does not function is a long way from customer service.

Own and use his phone for 5 months, really brilliant in all aspects, fast internet, great call quality, good screen. Battery life is similar to my iPhone 3s, with so much extra, I am very happy!

Had this phone less than a week,found reception to be ordinary to poor,the phone itself has been returned to telstra repair shop as the touch screen function does not work with display phone key and the number keypad.Also found that the display screen dulls its brightness and appearance for no reason to the point where you cant read it,the tech on hand was unable to explain reasons or correct faults so its off to the repairer.

If you connect it to your PC as a hard disk it shows 8.8GB. Clearly this is a software issue.
In addition get your IMEI number from seetings, and confirm that your handset is HTC original. I hope this helps.

Plus I set up all the HTC widgets, which allows me to turn off wifi, data and gps on the phone plus adjust down the brightness. Finally the biggest battery killer is letting several apps run simultaneously. Go to your task manager and switch off unused apps.. I hope this helps.
