Last time I used a Zagg "shield" was on my old N97 (...) It looked great for a while ( a few months actually) but then the glue started to come loose and the shield started peeling off slowly plus due to it coming loose the edges started to look really scruffy and dust kept piling under it.

So I guess what I am trying to say is, it'll work well for a while but you will need to replace it sooner than if you were using other products already mentioned on this thread (Skinomi), but then again this is my experience, you may be luckier.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kotaro_14:
That is why you have the lifetime warranty... Also, I have heard Best Skins Ever also may be an alternative. Also, I only recommend Skinomi if you take good care of your device as if you push down on the Skinomi screen protector the mark WILL NOT DISSAPEAR. So use only if you take care of your device i.e. Having a pouch for it, careful installation, and only finger not fingernail use. :D

A really good solution would be Ghost Armor, but they don't have the S2 available yet as they are located in America and not much demand I guess, sent them an email and they haven't replied for about a week.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] PhaseShiftDown:
I bought the full body armor as well and was a bit dissapointed too. The fit is good and I manage to install it within reasonable effort. But as expected, the bit for the battery cover won't stick properly due to the texture of the cover. I was expecting some kind of hard plastic protection, but instead, the cover feels soft and you can mark it easily with finger print. I didn't even bother installing the screen protection. Won't buy it again.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ValmarWeln:
Yup that's correct, but even with the warranty I feel it's too much faffing about, but others may be OK with it.

And yes you do need to take care of your device, but then again these phones are so expensive you would be a fool not to :).

Like I said tho, people have different experiences & taste, in my experience clear shields, clear cases, clear desktop towers (yup .. I had one of them 100% clear lol...) etc. always get manky in the end, this time I went with a Zenus leather case thingy, lets see how this works out.

But yes, indeed you are quite right :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ivanlmh:
You guys should try iDefense Pro :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beefheart:
Zagg screen protectors in particular are very good BUT they need to be applied properly, once they are I feel they're the best, or certainly in terms of protection. I applied mine fine but it took time and I have been applying screen protectors for years. For anyone who hasn't done it before they are very difficult and if not done properly look terrible. I can't help but feel half the people complaining about them (not necessarily in this thread by the way) simply haven't applied them correctly, either through impatience or inability.
[EVO Shift 4G General] FireMedic138:
Does anyone know of a way to keep the keyboard from "waking up" the phone when it's slid out? The reason I want to know because my case has magnets in it and it causes my phone to turn on whenever i put it in or remove it from my case. The phone is rooted in case there's a hack, if not, maybe an app?
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
There is no official way of doing it.

Although untested you might be able to download tasker or locale and set it to whenever you open the keyboard when asleep itll lock the screen? idk not a big user of tasker but it might be possible
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Hi to everyone,

after lot's of searching and Googling I have decided to start a new thread regarding the overheating of my HD2 and the constant reboots because of that. :confused:

I've been using HyperDroid-CM7-v2.1.0 for some time now, and like many others I am impressed by it's stability, speed and looks! So big thanks to all the developers and people who make such luxery in our lives possible! ;)

To keep a long story short:

I've checked facdemol's topic about HD2 overheating, and I was wondering... looking at the HyperDroids kernel, which is tytung_r10, if it is possible to build a r10-like kernel with a big undervolt and max. speed of about 960Mhz for the CPU?

I think it would be a welcome addition to all other kernels for those who are experiencing these HD2 overheating issues. Are there devs out there that would like to dive into this challenge?

Again, thanks for al the people working on this super phone, and I hope to see some reactions on this initiative.

Greetings from Rotterdam, The Netherlands!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
why not setting the max cpu frequency yourself?

settings->cyanogen->performance->cpu settings

...also undervolting is possible yourself, using typhoon rom and always undervolt it for better battery life. Should be also possible on hyperdroid...thought i have seen somethin in the OP.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Hi j4n87,

thanks for the reply!

Although I see it is an option to try the Typhoon build, I was only wondering if it is possible to do an undervolt without the technical routine in de HyperDroid-CM7-v2.1.0 build? I am not planning on switching to the Typhoon build because personally I realy like the Hyperdroid build and would like to stick to that one for now...

I am an HD2 enthousiast and manage to install new builds myself, but when it comes to things like undervolting it's a different story I presume?

I am formiliar with setting the CPU settings in CM, I have set i to 860Mhz, but still the overheating problem remains.

Is there a step-by-step guide to do this undervolting? Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
2nd post of hyperdroid at teh buttom:

using this voltages from tyween:

these are the orig. values:

Lower the values will increase the battery life and also overheating.

But be careful to set to low values..it can cause instabillity/freezes or you phone not boot anymore.

So PLEASE make a backup before editing these values.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Hi j4n87,

thanks for the reply!

I'll give that a try, hopefully it will solve my overheating problem. I'll update my findings after a few days of using with the new undervolt settings.

Nochmal, danke, und noch ein schönes Wochenende!

Grüße von der Käse Nachbarn, lol!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
Gern geschehen :).

Some info:

after changing the values you have to reboot, to ensure teh values are set and used, the values also have to be in "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels"
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Hi j4n87,

I downloaded the file "12vddlevels" and changed the content (in Notepad++) with the custom settings and then saved the file.

Then I used Absolute System to copy that file from my SD to the /system/etc/init.d folder with the same user rights as the other files that are in that folder, I believe it was "rwxr-x---".

I also copy/pasted the new content to "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels" manually and saved it with the program "Absolute System".

I rebooted my HD2, does this now mean that the new voltages are loaded??

Greets
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
the last step, to copy the content also to "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels" was wrong! :)

...after editing the values in the init.d folder and rebooting the values in "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels" should change automatically without your doing..if they do, you can ensure its working.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Ok, so I've checked the last step, opened the file /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels, and to my surprise nothing has changed? The file itself is totally empty...even after a few reboots. Does this mean the values from the /system/etc/init.d/12vddlevels file haven't been pushed trough the system?

I've also noticed the "12vddlevels" file didn't have any extention when coming straight out of the zipfile here from xda. Still I opened it in Notepad++ and changed and saved the values and so on and so on...

I did the check trough adb shell with the command line:

adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels

This basicly showed the content of the file I had put in /system/etc/init.d folder earlier. I rebooted my phone three times now, but still nothing has changed in the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels file, it's blanc?

I also executed a "fix permissions" routine via the CWM AD Recovery menu, I read somewhere this could help, but still nothing has changed??

Have I overlooked a step, or did I execute something in a wrong way?

Please advise...

Greets
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
...fix permissons only affect installed apps i think.

yeah, if the file under "/sys..." is empty or got the default values the init.d script are not executed correctly.

Did you set the right permission?

750or 777 should be the right ones.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Galactus:
Hopefully I can help you :D

1. check that your vddlevels file is still in unix mode (open it in notepad++, then go to edit>eol conversion> if UNIX is greyed out then its already in unix mode and you can move to the next step (if you can click on it then go ahead and save the file after its been converted to unix)

2. Some people have had issues trying to automatically fix permissions on the file. I personally just used root explorer to fix the permissions (it should mimic the permissions of the other files in the init.d folder)

for my hyperdroid rom the owner settings should look like this (to match the other owner settings of the files in the init.d folder)

the permissions should look like this (to match the permissions of the other files in the init.d folder)

3. reboot and all should be fine. I found out that my phone cant handle 1190 using tyween's low voltages. 1152 works fine so thats what I'm running in my daily build :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Hi j4n87,

I've checked the permissions on the 12vddlevels file, and I changed that to read+write+execute for ALL. So I guess now the permissions shouldn't be the problem anymore, right?

After a few reboots the file in /sys/devices/... still is empty.

But I also wonder where the results come from when entering the command line:

adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels

Because when I look into that file manually, it's empty, when executing the adb command line, I see all the voltage settings...

In the meantime I've installed SetCPU and made a few profiles for different scenarios, I have the feeling this does change my heat problem slightly, but not much. Because when I play Crystal Defender for example, my HD2 is able to do that for like 10 minutes max. till it crashes and I have to take te battery out to reboot. Before installing SetCPU it only took 2 minutes till a crash occured.

It's sad to see that such a well build android phone has this ridiculous problem, I blame HTC for the cooling design failure! Bleh!

So...what now?

Greets
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Hi DramatikBeats,

I followed your instructions and THAT DID IT!

First I had an old version of Root Explorer, so I wasnt able to set the right owner, just the permissions. After changing all the settings like your guide I rebooted. After reboot I immediatly checked the vddlevels file, and voila! Now it isn't empty, so I assume it's done! :D

So now I will try to stress the HD2's CPU a bit with some games and other stuff, I will update this post with my findings next week.

I thank both j4n87 and DramatikBeats for all your time and effort to help me out!

Peace to you, and have a nice weekend!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mister.halfblood:
Ok guys,

after a week of testing I noticed my CPU's heat problem got a bit less, meaning, I can feel the temperatures are lower then before. But......and this is the sad part......after all this UV and trying to find the best settings possible, my HD2 still crashes after a few minutes of gameplay. The temperature still rises, so I think my motherboard is broken or something like that...

So I bought myself a Galaxy Tab, unlocked it, flashed it with a new Gingerbread Rom and rooted it.

But thnx again for all your help, I've learned a lot! :D

Have a nice weekend guys! ;-)

SPL-2.10.0000 8G XE

Also, I think I have the 1024 Leo, bought from T-Mobile with the Green/Red call/hangup buttons.

Can anyone help me with the downgrade?

From the official HSPL thread I read

"It is possible to downgrade to this SPL, by just flashing to an Official ROM

with this SPL version."

Can someone help a noob with this process? I've never flashed b4! :p

Also, my phone currently won't load and is stuck on the "stick together screen" :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RDionysus:

Out of curiosity, why do you want to downgrade to 1.42 SPL?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cakinlife:
After reading some guides, I think I need to downgrade to 1.42 in order to install HSPL don't I?

After that, I want to install android.

EDITTTTT

Hold up, I just continued reading some other stuff and found out I don't need to downgrade.

Problem is my phone gets stuck on the "Stick Together" screen. How do I install HSPL if I can't get phone to load?

Any tips? Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RDionysus:
That's correct. With the most recent HSPL4, you can go direct to 2.08.HSPL or 3.03 (2.08 if you wanna go Android)

Has this phone ever booted up? Have you flashed something previously which caused this condition? Radio?

In any case, I'm assuming you can get into bootloader, so you can just try running HSPL4 on your computer with your HD2 in bootloader mode-- that should allow you to install HSPL, and you can see if this rectifies the loading problem and then go from there. Alternatively, you can try starting totally from scratch by installing an appropriate factory/shipped ROM (with proper radio) from the microSD card (see the flashing thread for instructions). If this brings your phone back to a working baseline, then:

1)Flash HSPL

2)Flash your desired custom WinMo ROM and

3)install Android ROM on SD​

**OR**

2)Flash your desired NAND Android ROM (first taking care of incidentals like MAGLDR, etc-- as per Android flashing instructions)​

Thanks RDionysus, I really appreciate all the info.

If you have a tmous the ONLY stock roms you can flash are tmous roms from T-Mobile.com or the tmous section here on xda.

Astock rom that is not tmous will destroy your phone.

Hey sam,

The official Tmobile rom is an .exe tho.

Its not the usual format .nbh

What should I do?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
its actually an executable zip, not really a .exe.

If you rename the extension to .zip, it will open in whatever zip program you have installed, and you will see about 9 files inside, one of which is RUU_Signed.nbh, around 220meg size, its way the biggest file in there, you cant miss it,. , thats the rom(and radio and splash and spl), extract that and rename it, copy it to sd, and enter bootloader. The other files are the program that performs the flash over USB.

So I reflashed the T-mobile rom with success however I still get stuck at the stick together screen even with a fresh install.

Anyone have any tips?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RDionysus:
After reviewing the thread, I would consider a strong possibility that there is something wrong with the hardware. But before throwing in the towel, here's what I would try first:

REMOVE the SIM card and any SD card you have in the phone. Perform a hard reset. If you still get hung at the "stick together" screens then try...

RE-FLASH the stock (baseline) rom you obtained earlier, but this time first hook the phone up to your computer and perform a Task 29, then flash, and finally hard reset. Don't skip any steps, and leave out of the phone both your sim card and the microSD card (in case one of them are faulty). If, after the final hard-reset your phone manages to successfully boot up all the way, then insert the cards and see if everything is operational.

Good luck.

The phone generally doesn't drop below 384MHz, and the minimum frequency is 192MHz, so you don't need the LKM to underclock, just SetCPU.
