I have bought my HD2 From Greece i tried installing the World Wide English (WWE) 3.14.405.2 Rom .. After have downloaded it i got the RUU_signed.nbh copied it to the sd card rename it to leoimg.nbh ( i think that was it) and booted the phone to Bootloader .. from there it started the procedure and then got the error !!
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Sounds like you got the wrong ROM for your phone, go to the HTC.com and enter your serial number from your HD2 and download the ROM it says you can download. Also make sure you are on the HTC site that is for your country or the country the HD2 originally came from.
[HD2 General] isark:
Okay thanks for your time and everything this was the problem . you were correct .. so the thing to do now is to do the same steps with the correct rom i have downloaded .. ?? Am i correct ?
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yes take the same steps and change the name of the .nbh file to leoimg.nbh (it is not case sensative so LEOIMG.nbh works as well. This should have you completely back to stock once the ROM is flashed.

Start with the stickies. For roms its all opinion. Most popular seem to be bionix and trigger. I prefer trigger.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
Well I would say that you should go back to 2.1 through Odin. And to do that, install Odin v1.7 or whatever, and stock jfd along with the 512 pit(I can post the links later,but until then, Google is your friend). Open up ODIN FIRST.. take out the battery, and hold down the volume rockers. Without letting go, plug into the computer and then put the battery back in. When you see the yellow android digging you are in download mode. Now you should see COM(number) on the top right of ODIN on the computer .

Now choose the PDA (t959xxxjfd.tar) and pit file(512.pit), and hit start. Should take about 2-3 minutes to go back to eclair

After you are booted up, download Z4 root (again, find it on google) and root your phone. It will reboot again, after 2nd boot, download rom manager. Open this app and install clockwork mod recovery for Samsung vibrant. It will ask you for root access after you choose boot into recovery, select "allow". It will boot into regular recovery. And you will use the down volume key to select reinstall packages. This will officially install clockwork mod recovery. You may have to do this twice. The way you know is the recovery menu will be green, and have about 10 options. As opposed to the yellow and blue menu with 4 options.

After this, you are golden. You are rooted and have CWM to install whatever rom you choose. I would recommend bionix v1.3. It is an easy install.

my phione came stock with 2.2 though! should i still switch back to 2.1 if i choose to use odin
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treyvaporizer:
I couldn't find out how to root 2.2 so I just converted. Repeating this process has made it quite easy to do this kind of stuff.

Its good practice! But check and make sure the 512 pit is compatible with the jfd, because I forgot.

But yes I woudl recommend this if you plan to go to any other rom. But if you just want rooted 2.2 then don't do this

[G2 and Desire Z General] NoFatePPC:
hello,

i want to wipe my android and start from scratch , also i want to delete any contents on my sd card...

but what contents on the sd card must remain? i remeber when i bought my desire, there were already folders on the sd card, are they important??

how do i do this?

first wipe/reinstall rom , then format, then wipe again?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Spastic909:
Why wipe and then reinstall the same rom? Wipe=factory reset which deletes all user info, apps, etc etc. As in it will look like it did when you wiped and installed rom for the first time. Just reformat the sd card and you are done. You aren't gonna see a completely empty sd card after reformatting. There will be system folders that android will place there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] NoFatePPC:
thnx for the update... is there already a tool supplied with the rom to format the sd card??

what format system do i need to use fat32?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Athrun88:
After you have wiped and flashed your new rom, you can format your SD card from within android. That way, it will be able to place the default folders in there for you at the same time.

perfect, thnx for the info...

I like it. Though if you could add a digital time read-out I might actually use it. The Tron style clock, while cool, is hard to read at a glance.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] sluzi26:
I bought it. Love it. Thanks!
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] Corporate Dog:
I thought about putting a small digital readout in the middle of the disc (since there's just wasted space there right now) but then thought it might look a little crowded.

Probably the easier thing to implement as an option (at this point) would be a more traditional analog clock with hands and numbers.

But if I'm feeling ambitious, I might try for a digital readout, too. Thanks for the input!

Cool! Glad to hear it!

FYI: I noticed on my phone this morning that I suddenly had a blank location field after the hourly update. This was sort of a new one on me, and I'm thinking it may have to do with the fact that I suddenly have multiple users, trying to hit Google's geocoding service at EXACTLY the same time.

So there'll probably be an update coming within a few days to address this.

Regards,

Corporate Dog
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] OJsakila:
Yea I'm not sure either. Is this "spam?" I dunno. It certainly would NOT be if it wasn't for sale.

Hey

First of, let me apologize for making this thread, as im sure theres alot of them around. but i have not been able to find anything that helps me :/

Anyways, i am the happy owner of a HTC Desire.

And i have decided to try and root it, so i can get some costum roms on it (Been looking at CleanDHD and Oxygen Rom for starters :)

But before i do ANYTHING to my phone, i want to make a complete backup of it.

So that i can go back to the exact state that it was in before i tampered with it in any way.

What is the easiest (and best :P) way to this ?

Thanks for your time :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Without rooting you can't backup the ROM, so long as you can get the RUU for your phone you can always go back to stock. Post up your software version and we'll see if there's an RUU for it
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apwdjarland:
Android Version 2.2

Basebandversion 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

Coresystem (name loosely translated from danish :P) 2.6.32.15-gf5a401c HTC-Kernel@and18-2 #1

Version number 2.29.405.5 CL293415 Release Keys

Software number 2.29.405.5

So your saying, that to take a backup of my system, i have to root it? :)

What if i want to remove the root acces then? go all the way back to scratch?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LINKSLOVESANDROID:
you need root to perform a nandroid backup. 1st find your RUU file. this will allow you to return to stock no root in the future if u want too. then root your device. after your rooted, you can use clockwork recovery to make a nandroid backup. then u can go on your way trying custom roms. if u want stock again, use your nandroid and youll b at a rooted stock htc rom. if u want to remove your root, use the RUU file and it will wipe your phone completely and flash your stock rom without root

[Atrix 4G General] madpoet:
So I went in to swap my iPhone 3gs for an Atrix and laptop dock. As a long time customer I've ad my $30 unlimited data plan for years. The sales guy says no problem, it will transfer over to the Atrix. So I buy it and the dock and off I go. Phone works fine, data works fine on the phone... until I plug it in. Then nada. I get a nasty gram saying I don't have an appropriate data plan and please call AT&T. So now they want to ding me $45/mnth for the limited data cap instead of my $30/mnth unlimited. Is there any workaround for this? Can you enable mobile hotspotting on the Atrix and have the wireless pick it up?

Second issue... the guy told me you can install apps into your webtop. I can't find any way to do that, so I'm guessing he meant into the mobile OS? I hate having to run Skype, etc; in that lower rez window rather than as part of the Webtop.

Thanks,

Paul
[Atrix 4G General] MarcMaiden:
The guy didnt really "lie" to you...he just didnt really tell you the whole story:

Yes you can kee pyour $30/unlimited data plan, but you need the $45 tethering plan to use the laptop dock outside of WIFI.

there are ways to use your unlimited data + tethering by switching your APNs around. Check out the sticky in the development section it has lots of goodies for you.

and no, you cant install apps to webtop
[Atrix 4G General] jkrohn:
As far as installing "apps" they are referring to using web apps like google docs. Which is a joke.

If you root your Atrix you can install some ARM debs, but you'll need to be careful. I have xFreeRDP running on my webtop, but it isn't without quirks.
[Atrix 4G General] madpoet:
Thanks, appreciate the pointers. I am still annoyed ;) But if the right apk can do it then I will shut up ;)
[Atrix 4G General] tjp888:
I had a similar issue. I have an unlimited data plan with AT&T also. They also told me I could keep it. But I didn't buy the dock. However, after a few days with my new Atrix I received a text msg from AT&T stating that I was being charged for data, by the MB. WTF?

It turned out that AT&T messed my account all up and deleted my unlimited data plan. It took a couple of long phone calls, and finally a trip to the local AT&T store to get my unlimited data plan put back and the accumulated data charges removed.
[Atrix 4G General] lemortede:
I finally managed to keep my unlimited plan. The reps will tell you that its not possible, but you have to make a big enough stink about it and they will escalate it to some one who can do it.
[Atrix 4G General] link12245:
No they won't. It's standard practice to keep the unlimited data plan, and we get more money from it, so it's in our advantage to keep you on the unlimited. Please don't spread lies.
[Atrix 4G General] Recon Freak:
So why change it in the first place, I don't understand?
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Lies! :eek:

If it's standard practice, why did they automatically drop me to the 2GB plan?

Why did I then have a 1 hour phone call after I discovered this, because they didn't tell me, to be grandfathered in with my unlimited plan again. I had to wait for the rep to get her manager to give me unlimited back, and then they called me back to let me know. "Standard practice" appears to be "whatever we feel like doing at that moment" to AT&T!

(Oh, and I came over from the dark side also...............iPhone 3GS)
[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
Apparently some of the sales people are idiots... and don't actually look into things. On it's launch day, there were a LOT of topics in here about people not being able to keep their unlimited plan or some crap..... I never had an issue with it. When i went down to AT&T to have them switch around the stuff for the phone (since i used one of my parent's upgrades to buy my Atrix), the unlimited plan was accidentally removed from my account, but the lady there called some number... not sure exactly what number or where it was, but had my unlimited plan back within minutes and was using my new phone.

But yea.... can't install apps to the laptop dock. It has no memory. It's a $500 screen, keyboard, battery, and touchpad in a slimline shell.
[Atrix 4G General] naturefreak85:
Not true at all. When I bought my Atrix, they couldn't keep my data plan and made no effort to try. I had to call 611 and raise hell to get it back. QUOTE=link12245;12705329]No they won't.

[Atrix 4G General] hotleadsingerguy:
Umm...yes they absolutely will. I got **** for 3 months about them accidentally removing my data plan and being supposedly unable to put it back on. My dad works for the company and I was on Military Suspension (meaning I had my account suspended on purpose because I was on deployment). I got back and they had removed my unlimited data. They told me repeatedly it wasn't possible to put it back on, despite the reason I lost it being their mistake, my dad working for the company, and me being a veteran (not saying it should be a factor, necessarily, but considering they took it off by making a mistake...).

Eventually got to a tech that said he would help. Took about 20 seconds.

AT&T Mobility is a complete joke. Customer Service reps will do anything and everything to keep you from the unlimited plan. You can't possibly say that's not true because I've experienced it more times than you could count and I'm guessing many people on this forum have.
[Atrix 4G General] hotleadsingerguy:
Oh, and in that time I'd spoken to normal CSRs, managers, and even a division head (so they said). They all said it's not possible to retain the unlimited data plan once you had lost it. I got an apology from all of them since *they* were the ones that removed it on accident, but no help in returning it.

Then I demanded to speak to a tech, and the guy did it in 20 seconds without even asking what happened. AT&T Mobility is a joke.
