Help Hello, about using htcsense.com in a second hand phone.

[danihaif]

I'm about to buy a second hand HTC desire HD. I was wandering if i'll be able to use the website htc.sense.com.

Furthermore, is the validation code only valid once? Does it come in the original box? should I demand the seller to guarantee that htcsense.com work on my phone?

Will htcsense.com work anywhere in the world?

And last but not least, iv'e heard that the website has a lot of faults and is not working properly. Is that true? What does HTC say about that?

Thanks!

I only used it for a day, but I don't remember there being a validation code. The only sticking point I can see is if it checks the serial number of the phone against other accounts, but I don't know if they do that or not.

I have created 5 different htc sense accounts for my phone trying to get it working and each one worked to some point so you shouldn't have a problem with that. Each time you create an account they will send you a validation code.

Guess that solves it

I know for a fact that there is a validation code (see picture).
Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing?

The validation code is the words in the box right above it.
