[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hookwitz:
I feel like I have looked everywhere but forgive me if I missed a thread that may answer this.

I don't know if this is a hardware or software issue.

I installed HSPL 2.08 successfully

I then installed MAGLDR 1.13 successfully

Flashed my phone with HD2_Core_Droid_Desire_HD_V1.5_NAND_ONLY_LEO1024_TMOUS successfully

Android booted fine and worked for about a day and a half. My phone froze up and had to remove battery. Now it only boots to white screen.

I have attempted to reinstalled MAGLDR without success

I have attempted to change my HSPL back to SPL to install OEM Rom without success HSPL says it was successful but bootloader screen says different.

I read in a thread that it could be a radio conflict (though I don't know why it would work for a day and then stop) but I can't install a radio ROM. I get Error 207 Image file corrupted.

I have read threads about flashing from the SD card by extracting the signed_RUU.nbh file from the stock ROM, but I have no idea how to do that. I do not have the extract option on the exe file of the stock ROM I download...and I have downloaded several versions.

Please help.

I have no idea what is happening with your phone and why is it happening... But I can tell yoy one thing. Whenever I had any problems when phone would not go further one step, I would do TASK29 and follow all the steps all over again. TASK29 is sth like wiping everything off your NAND. Hope it helps.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] crx4xharder:
I kind of think this is a hardware issue... My boys did the same thing... Never got it back up and running.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] El Che:
what about the radio ?

do task 29 and flash radio if you haven't (ignore if you did it earlier) then install MAGLDR and flash the rom from within MAGLDR or follow whatever instructions the developer has posted in his thread.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] crx4xharder:
I too have tried everything and although magldr and wm6.5 both flash from sd, still wsod. My advice is take it to tmobile, and talk them into admitting its a hardware problem ;-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hookwitz:
I forgot to mention I did try the Task29 and it too failed. So I am thinking it is a hardware issue.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hookwitz:
UPDATE: I figured out where to find the .nbh files in my temp folder and was able to copy and paste them to the SD card. I have also gotten to the image load screen to flash the leoimg.nbh file. However all of them fail at RADIO and subsequently fail the update. I have tried new and old stock ROM and the Radio ROM by itself. I also used the Task29 nbh file and was successful in flashing that from my SD card ... but the HSPL is still there at the boot loader screen.

I can't seem to figure out what is causing the fail.

Thoughts anyone?

Sorry

Did you check is this version quiet similar to your phone's hardware configuration

Ram 1024
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hookwitz:
My version is compatible. Again, it was running fine. In fact, I have a phone previous that I installed it and it worked beautifully but I dropped and shattered the screen. When I got this new one (same model) I performed the installation the exact same way. It worked a day and a half and then froze.

Based on other searches, it looks like I may have bricked my radio.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hookwitz:
UPDATE:

I think I was able to solve this and hopefully I won't be as cryptic as someone else who had a similar problem. Don't Give Up is good advice however attempting the same time over and over is probably not the best.

This is what I did ... after banging my head at the redundancy.

I used NBHExtract from the NBHExtract forum on the Stock ROM T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1 that I downloaded from T-Mobile. This extracted all the .nb files and thankfully they were well labeled.

I then used the NBH Creator from the NBH Creator forum (yes you will have to register to download this application.)

In the NBH Creator I used the settings provided to me in the NBHExtract window and used the SPL, Splash, and OS only ... leaving the Radio blank.

I created the leoimg.nbh file and put that on a blank 2Gig FAT32 formated SD card.

Booted the phone in Bootloader.

The update failed however it uninstalled the HSPL

From here I did a Hard Reset to clear the ROM Update failure message on the tri-color screen.

I attempted to update the ROM via USB to the 3.14 version (again downloaded from T-Mobile's site). This got to 4% and failed. I now had the warning triangle symbol on my screen indicating the Software Update failed and to try again.

I tried again however this time with the 2.13 version (the ROM I extracted at the beginning) via USB. This time is successfully installed.

This is probably not a fool-proof nor verified option, however it worked for my phone model PB8112000. It might work for you.

I am tempted to try Android again, however, I don't know if the radio issue was hardware or software.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] milesjohnson:
I am trying to decide between one of these three cases but can't really decide which since most stores don't have them so I haven't had the chance to actually feel and see how they look on my phone. I'm not in an environment where I drop my phone a lot but I still need a little protection so I was wondering if I could get any recomendations
[Atrix 4G Accessories] lsxrx7:
do not get the impact

the fit is not good

i cannot comment on the commuter because the defender is the same price and i got the defender, and i like it alot
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Loztblaz:
I've owned the incipio feather and just got the commuter in the mail a few minutes ago. I didn't like how fragile the feather was, so I opted for the commuter for better protection.

As far as fit, I'm pretty happy with it, although the silicone parts that cover the ear speaker and the bottom of the phone are a little floppy if you mess with them. The back of the case is a little slicker than I would like, but the silicone parts on the side give adequate grip. The volume buttons are actually easier to use with the case on than without a case, and the port covers seem great too.

I'd give it a 8/10 because the slickness of the plastic and floppy silicone subtract a bit from an otherwise excellent case.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] wundbread:
Get the Commuter

I just got it the other day. It really seems to protect the phone quite well and fits snugly. Adds some bulk, but probably less than the impact.

Pros:

Excellent Phone Protection

Easy to install

Doesn't add too much bulk

Cons:

Rubber attracts lint

Included screen protector isn't figerprint / smudge resistant

Does add some bulk
[Atrix 4G Accessories] WiredPirate:
Definately the Commuter.

I love mine!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] plasticglock:
I bought the Body Glove a couple weeks ago after finding out I can still use my car dock with it on. (Just barely.) I wanted it because my wife has had a Body Glove on her Captivate since July of last year and it's great. The bg for the atrix is styled a little differently but is just as good. Not too much added bulk either. The phone is a lot easier to hang onto now too.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] recurringintensity:
defender

- yes the rubber does attract foreign particles. however i think we all can agree that all electronics share that feature...

but you can just rinse it off while it dries your phone is still fully protected.

-screen protector is built into the shell. no squeegee's. NO bubbles. NO glare!

-fully enclosed and port plugs ( commuter has plugs )

-360 swivel belt clip.

personally i really enjoy this clip/case for its dual face design. you can have the screen facing out to monitor calls, msgs, etc. or you can have it face inward to prevent your screen's death due to evil table corners. there are notches to keep it from falling out.

and it wont. the clip has a curve bottom as well, to keep it from involuntary vehicle exit suicide. which is believed to be caused by occupants jumping in and out of there automobiles. but this has never been confirmed due to lack of witnesses.

-spring clip can be fully expanded and it will lock in place to easily attached or removed.

-belt catch is on the bottom so it won't slip. a.k.a. gypsy clip:eek:

- camera, phones jack, ports all have a poly carb gaurd that is flush with the rubber sleeve.

i ordered this thing 2 days before i did the phone on amazon prime so i figured surely i would have it first. Nope i actually had to sit on my hand for 2 days waiting for that case before i opened my phone. but i can say that my phone has never really experienced outside air.

i own the impact too. but i have never wanted to use it this is a great accessory. its worth 30 bucks i'd pay double that.

** if you are in any environment that you fear dust, dirt, abuse, water, kids, heat, beanie babies. this is the best protection offered. and it does add security to accidental loss for wearing it on your side. I will always buy these before my mobile gear everytime.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Swiftks:
Do yourself a favor and save the time you will be spending if you get something else, then deciding that you don't like it, returning it, ordering what you should have ordered in the first place...... get the commuter case, it rocks balls! ;)
[Atrix 4G Accessories] optimaljam:
Hell yes get the defender case ur gonna love this case, also go to amazon and get it for $30 thats the best deal ever!!!!! and u can use the clip as a kickstand so thats the best case in the world!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] REDFOCZ:
I think of the defender case up last night. So far so good. I always always run the on otter box cases is on my phones between the commuter and the defender you can't go wrong
[Atrix 4G Accessories] theonedub:
Since you said you probably wont drop it and just want a little protection, I would go with the BodyGlove (if the Feather is not an option). Good grip, decent protection, and little added bulk.

I happen to have one for sale too :D
[Atrix 4G Accessories] vin791:
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_s...fix=rugged+battery+door+for+motorola+atrix+4g

one of those on the first row. it's Motorola, and its a replacement battery door that also goes around the side edges (covers everything but the screen). NO added bulk, seems perfect
[Atrix 4G Accessories] panflute:
I had the Impact which was nice but flimsy didn't feel great and top and bottom unprotected. Just got the Commuter and love it! Feels great looks great much better protection for $22 delivered from Ebay and the ports are covered!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] HungryEel:
i have the commuter on order, will write about how i feel about it once i get it!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] exume:
I've been liking my bodyglove, had it for a few days, like the added grip and its not too bulky
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Hydro360:
This review was classic
[Atrix 4G Accessories] LastQuark:
Do you have these? I wonder how they fit on the vehicle and multimedia docks.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] theonedub:
Comes with an insert for the std/media docks. From what I have seen the car dock would most likely still work fine.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] bobdurfob:
I tried the Impact case for a week. It's not snug on the phone and has a tendency to slip off the bottom corners. The impact-absorbing aspect of the phone is excellent however. The thick silicone case can absorb shock quite well.

I returned it. I'm waiting on a Seidio Innocase. Was thinking about the Commuter, but I wanted something a bit thinner.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Optimus-Prime:
dam. i jsut bought the impact of amazon for 10 bucks. should oof bought a tpu case instead then.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'm new to Andriod and now have a Desire S.

I'd like to get peoples feel on what is the best browser on this phone and why.

The stock browser, Opera or opera mini?

I've always used Opera on WM before.
[HTC Desire S] titus1:
You can try either Skyfire or Dolphin HD. These can be downloaded from the Market.
[HTC Desire S] domazdk:
On Desire S its the stock browser.

So fast and light.
[HTC Desire S] giotto89:
opera mini work fine with https sites ;)
[HTC Desire S] MS.:
Dolphin is a piece of spyware. Google it.
[HTC Desire S] MarlX:
Stock browser is good. But if you are watching your bandwidth try Opera Mobile or Mini.

Edit : oh man, this is an old thread.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Steinhund:
Depends on network speed and coverage. Good speed - use the stock browser. Fast and light. Bad speeds - use Opera Mini. With its data compression named Opera Turbo even on 2G sites load very fast. But there is no flash and its not based on webkit so esp. mobile sites look different (e.g. Facebook) than with stock and other webkit based browsers.
[HTC Desire S] vinprivag:
opera mobile...but dolphin HD is good too!!
[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
Stock browser...its perfect..if u use mini the pages are soo malnourished.....
[HTC Desire S] outsidetown:
Huh, I'd never actually used the stock browser before, I've had Dolphin since I got my phone. After reading this thread I tried it out, and it's so much better!
[HTC Desire S] giotto89:
I use opera only for open a https sites :p the original browser can't open it (exchange for example)
[HTC Desire S] noponies:
Opera aint too bad really. Its fairly fast.

Firefox has some nice features, but its dog slow.

I do tend to just end up using the stock browser.
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
Opera here, I find it much faster than dolphin
[HTC Desire S] VinceCZ:
In my opinion the best browser is Opera Mobile. In case you do not have any FUP limits and internet is fast.

If you have FUP limitations or/and slow internet connections, better is Opera Mini.
[HTC Desire S] Dj-Dubster_TN:
I personally like maxthon browser for usability ,ninesky browser for general use because its webkit based so its pretty reliable, and xscope for shere speed
[HTC Desire S] amrish96:
maxthon browser is the fastest i've tried so far

and you have a lot of options
[HTC Desire S] Paulst30:
This is all going to be about personal choice, however, i've tried,

Dolphin HD

Opera

Firefox

Maxthon

and a few no names

However, the best, once you get used to it is the stock for me. Easy less polluted with skins and themes. You just need a browser to act as a Webview not to take up valuable screen space, and for me the stock one does the job well.

my two cents
[HTC Desire S] froggy666uk:
Opera Mobile for me - I find the option to change user agent between desktop and mobile very useful... ;)
[HTC Desire S] xIntenso:
Miren browser is the only browser for me.

I tried switching to other browsers because it's development has stopped, but none could match it for me.

It's fast, customizable and highly functional.
[HTC Desire S] chivas112:
Prior to ICS I was always using Opera Mobile. It's a very fast and comfortable browser. I also tried out Dolphin HD which is in fact a good browser but I stayed with Opera :)

Now on ICS I prefer Android's stock browser as it's fast and quite stable. After mdj fixed the egl bug (in his early ICS versions) Opera simply became unnecessary.
[HTC Desire S] mackhenri:
Normally use opera full as 2g internet sucks here....but always use stock if using WiFi or internet passthrough.....
[HTC Desire S] wy328:
ucweb is the best for me, fast and slim
[HTC Desire S] Bewinxed:
The stock browser is unrivaled, maybe aurora but it's not ready yet.

and i'm the only one confused by your avatar? lmfao totally thought you were ben_pyett and i was like WTF MAN!!?

btw you can refer this :) http://kschang.hubpages.com/hub/Review-of-Web-Browsers-for-Android-2x

i personally favor opera mini ONLY if you have expensive tarrifs and slow internet, or just wanna browser the web like maaaad xD
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
I find i have to run 2 browsers. I use the stock browser mainly but also use opera in "Desktop" mode so I can access the full desktop pages of some sites rather than the mobile ones. :)
[HTC Desire S] Smudola:
For me Opera Mobile is the best browser.
[HTC Desire S] evilrussian800:
I'm using opera Mobile

From Russia with love by my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] Uppy:
I'd like to point out that you are wrong. Dolphin is a privacy threat because it collects information about the websites you visit.

While I agree that this is an invasion of privacy I would point out that they do not collect personal data such as passwords and the information that the browser gathers is for the webzine feature.

By calling it spyware you are giving it malicious connotations. I suggest you "google it" and make sure your facts are straight before discouraging people to use what is otherwise a fantastic piece of software.

I use Dolphin HD and Opera (not opera mini) and find them both to be stable and visually attractive.

Firefox (what happened to the fennec codename? It was cute) is very buggy right now.
[HTC Desire S] chilax:
"By calling it spyware you are giving it malicious connotations. I suggest you "google it" and make sure your facts are straight before discouraging people to use what is otherwise a fantastic piece of software."

Hi,

I've googled but I am still unclear on what to call it and on the option to disable the things some people consider spywarelike, for lack of a "better" description.. I read posts about it being disabled in 7.0.2 after the bad publicity . Then I read something about it being back in a following update. What is the current status?

Is 7.3 like 7.0.2 in the sense that it does not send stuff to mobotap/webzine or watchumacallit. I'd really like a good webbrowser and dolphin sounds great, except for the privacy concerns.

I realize you are not part of the dolphin support staff but you seem knowledgeable. And I've seen posts where the support staff isn't really forthcoming when asked.

BTW in the privacy policy they mention a bunch of personal stuff stuff they will/"may" collect from/about you, that they will/"may" store add/to a profile if they get their hands on it. Of course this may not be spyware but... you know.

Do you have any suggestions for a secure browser, apart from just doing without if one has a problem with the way (maybe) most browsers operate?

If you do I'd be much obliged.

Best.
[HTC Desire S] Blizk:
Opera mobile for sure.
[HTC Desire S] apk24:
I have yet to find a browser as good as Dolphin (both the mini and the full versions)

It just doesn't get better that this.
[HTC Desire S] aedin:
Opera mini and a stock browser...you dont need anything else,believe me
[HTC Desire S] ThommmF:
Not just right

There are some good points to use Opera or the built in browser.

Maybe you don't need anything else, right. But me.

I use the Dolphin HD browser with the LastPass extension to have all my passwords encryptet but comfortably available for auto fill and save and the Xmarks extension for synchronizing my bookmarks with any desktop browser.

Cheers,

Tom
[HTC Desire S] desiresiscool:
default is the best
[HTC Desire S] nmdang:
I use the Dolphin HD to access facebook with full size. I don't know how to access some website with full size on opera or firefox. They maybe can't do this.
[HTC Desire S] Gr3ml!n:
Dolphin HD smoothest I have used for a while... removed stock browser permanantly for this.. Althou I would argue there are some other nice browsers out there
[HTC Desire S] rakhan01:
Opera mini and stock browser work pretty much fine for me. I had bad experience with dolphin as it was too slow compared to stock.
[HTC Desire S] batmobile_bang:
the stock browser of ICS ROMs are really really good, and really snappy.

Given the tight integration of stock browser on ICS I don't think Dolphin (my prev favorite) stands a chance.
[HTC Desire S] Uppy:
Hmm, if you want absolute privacy I'd suggest firefox and orbot proxy add-on. Firefox certainly seems a little buggy for my tastes but it's got a nice clean user interface and lots of add-ons.

Maxathon behaves and looks like dolphin and has themes too but doesn't have Dolphins rather intrusive data collection.

I'd say try both for sure :-)
[HTC Desire S] Wody05:
I would also suggest stock browser it's fast and there is no need to replace :P In ICS you also get your bookmarks synced ;)
[HTC Desire S] Uppy:
I strongly disagree with you, the stock android browser is severely lacking. It's so basic. Even swapping tabs is a chore. Back when I was learning to program I made a web browser that matched android stock browser in functionality.

In order to experience the web in the best possible way you need a browser that offers performance and handy features and for me, I like to switch quickly between user agents too.

I'm not saying your opinion is wrong, of course. Just saying that I disagree.

Doesn't help that Three have done something to the stock browser so it doesn't work over wi-fi.
[HTC Desire S] wilku17:
Default browser in ICS based ROM-s is quite good. I used Maxthon, when browser on ICS had problems with webkit. I think it's good, too. Now I'm using stock browser from Sense 3.5 and it's fine for me.
[HTC Desire S] Rueben_:
I prefer Boat browser, there to versions i think both free but its customizable and very fast :)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Stock Browser for general quick access

Or Opera when i'm doing heavy browsing.
[HTC Desire S] a544jh:
I use stock, nice and clean. Opera Mini on slow connections.
[HTC Desire S] Uppy:
I never heard of that one. That's a nice Chrome-esque looking browser!

Also Skyfire but it's not free but it's very good.
[HTC Desire S] milkboy112358:
I prefer Firefox prerelease versions (Aurora and Nightly). Nightly has some bugs (not that surprising), but generally works fine. If neither browser for whatever reason is unable to display a page, Opera Mobile probably gets the job done. The stock browser is barely usable IMHO.

I have an SD Android build, with 2 partitons, FAT32 and Ext2. I would like to duplicate / backup the card from my PC. Does anyone know how? Which software?

Its OK if I only have a single FAT32 partition - there are many PC-based solutions. Most Android backup apps I've seen only handle things from within Android - contacts, email, etc, etc., or are for NAND builds, backing up to SD card.

Thanks,
