[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevemilw:
Hello

I have just installed HSPL 2.08 and MAGLDR 1.13 with wp7.

I installed everything correctly, but i tried to install updates using zune, and now WP7 crashes randomly and sometimes has a hard time starting up.

I would like to re-fllash wp7, but i cant get into the MAGLDR menu to select the USB FLASH MODE option (or something along those lines) In order to flash the WP7 rom, like i did to begin with.

Any help? Going into rgb mode (HSDPL) works, but i cant flash it using this method.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MartyLK:
Sounds like you need to start fresh. If so, and I'm understanding your situation, put your HD2 into bootloader mode (power off > hold volume-down button and tap power button wait for red, green whitescreen) and do Task 29. Then reflash magldr in the same bootloader screen after your HD2 reboots. Make sure to follow the same steps for getting into the BL screen. Then you should be able to reflash WP7 with magldr.

I'm not sure, but I don't believe WP7 can be updated in Zune. I believe the only current way of getting an updated WP7 ROM is to start fresh like described above.

you can't update wp7 on the hd2! didn't you see the error msg that no updates were performed? the hd2 roms are not official wp7 roms.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevemilw:
Thanks! I have re-flashed it now, i think the issue was the SD card being incompatible, not the updating of wp7 using zune.

While i am here, does anyone know how i can fix the following issues?

1. I cannot log into or connnect to any services which include facebook and outlook. Well, actually i know it can connect to outlook since the status in the top left said something allong the lines of 'weve found them' but then a message appear saying ' Ooops, We're having a problem connecting you, and all i can do is cancel'

Same goes with facebook. Currently, since my MicroSD card isnt compatible, i have no means of storage, so i cant store any contacts etc, maybe this is the issue? Im sure it wasnt working even with the card in however.

2. The camera seems very bad and doesnt fit the screen. Ive seen that this is an issue, but havent been able to find any threads resolviing the issue. If anyones found one, please could you post a link?

3. The market place, ive found a thread that claims to fix the issue, however i was a bit skeptical since theres been so many people saying you cant

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10566003

Has it really been finally hacked! It would seem so!

Come to think of it, that seems like all! The major issue at the moment is the inability to store anything which i will be sorting out soon.

I have purchased of amazon a 16GB Sandisk sd card, which claims to be class 2.

Please tell me its the right one!!

But so far, comparing WP7 to Energy, its not stacking up! Obviously the energy rom has had alot more development, but i like the way in which you can always know the weather, talk on facebook easily, install loads of apps on omarket.

I think WP7 has the possibility to be great when i have sorted all the issues out, visually, i dont think its as stunning in terms of graphics, but it is alot more simplistic and easy to use, definatley the keyboard is easier!

Anyone happy with this as their primary OS?

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevemilw:
Also, is there any way of booting into MAGLDR without it automatically starting WP7? Would just making it easier in terms of updating WP7 when i need too.

I currently have the latest version of mango..... i think that seems to be the most developed and worked on.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MartyLK:
Choose "Services" > boot options and then choose "always menu"...or something like that name.

I am. I'm so pleased with mine that I won't delete it. It works wonderfully for me.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevemilw:
Where is services then boot options??? Are we talking about inside WP7, or on zune!? All i have is settings on wp7
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MartyLK:
In the magldr menu. Power on your HD2 from a power off state and hold the red button till the magldr options screen appears. Then at close to the bottom is the "services" option.

Make sure to hold the red button while powering up your HD2.

done, ive flashed blacside rom, seems to be working very well and i can connect to facebook, and outlook. Just on the phone to microsoft in their never ending validation que to get my code!

Ive got to sayy, its soo much faaster than the last wp7 rom and actually works! i think i will keep thiss one forever!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MartyLK:
That's how I feel about this elfinlazz ROM. Though it has a few bugs, they don't effect its speed or stability. And the bugs are not serious nor effect the overall usability.

I plan on keeping this one until a ripe Mango is released with marketplace and Live already configured.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevemilw:
Well after being on the phone for 20 minuites, phone running out of battery then being on the phone for another 20 miniutes ive finally got my phonee activated with windows live services!!!

The funny this is, the man at the main switchboard who put me through the second time, said that they've had 'a high call volume regarding this issue'!!!! Just made me chuckle because its obviously everyone hacking it for their htc hd2's ! You dont need to phone up for activation if you own a genuine product!

By the way, they take your name, tel number and email and thats it, then thhey read out the code to you and send it to your email!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MartyLK:
The first time I tried for a code...I did it through chat...they asked me what brand and model phone I had. I didn't lie and told them an HD2. After a minute or two they came back and said they can't give me a code for the HD2 because it isn't an official WP7 phone....or something along those lines. I said okay, thank you and closed the chat. I was going to let it go. Then after about a day I decided to call again and see what would happen; if I would get a different person. I did get a different person, and they only asked me for my name and phone number...don't recall if they asked for an email. Once I gave them my name and number, they welcomed me back...LOL. I was about to hang up but nothing came of it and after a few minutes, they came back with a code.

And from what I understand, the code is permanent for that phone. I suppose that means it will work on any WP7 ROM on that specific phone, which is good because I plan to upgrade to a ripe Mango when available.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stevemilw:
Yea its pretty stupid how they will just hand out the codes, whats the point in even having activation AT ALL??

Im guessing the code will be locked into your windows live ID, so you can only sign in with that acccount. Would make sence, because then you can only use it on one person.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] MartyLK:
Not really. I tried to use my Live ID I have with my Samsung Focus and it worked okay and all, but I couldn't install any apps because it saw them already installed on another device. I then made a new Live ID and reset my HD2 and and signed in with that new Live ID. It went well and I could install apps from then on. But it means that the apps I've bought with my original Live ID will have to be bought again.

Maybe there is a bug in Live, I don't know, because Zune says you can have up to 5 devices on one account. But when I bought my HD7, I replaced it 3 times till I got one not faulty. When I tried to install an app on my HD2 with the original Live ID, it popped up a message saying I already have 5 devices activated and I need to delete them before I can use another. I then tried to delete the false ones but it will only allow you to delete one phone a month. I could only delete one, but it still wouldn't let me install apps.

See...the thing I think is the issue is that Windows Live doesn't communicate very well with other services or features. Example: In Gmail, if I make a change to a contact, immediately that change shows up on the Android phone. In Live, if I make a change to a contact, that change rarely ever appears on the phone. I think this is what the issue is between Live and Zune. They just aren't communicating well.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LunizWVU:
I've tried to find numerous GB ROMs for the VZW Galaxy Tab (7") over on the development forum and every single link to a kernel and ROM that I can find gives either a 404 or bandwidth exceeded error, even the mirrors I've been able to find have the same problem.

Anybody have any ideas?

Examples (I can't post outside links either so these are the threads with these dead links):

[Kernel][CDMA][VZW/SPRINT]KhasMek Voodoo Plus v5 Now with Full Voodoo CwM!

[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Recovery for Galaxy Tab - BETA

I would ask this question in their respective forums but apparently I can't because I don't have enough posts yet.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanv145:
If you want a GB rom and dont mind not having 3g, the rooted SprintGB works. On the VZW tab, its actually what im running now. As for the links being down, I have no idea and was wondering the same thing.

Does anyone know whats wrong with messenger..?

In my Omnia 7 running Mango beta 2 the facebook chat messages stoped arriving..

It all worked since I updated but know it stoped working... I can see all my contacts and they can see my but I just don't get all the messages..

If they send 6 I get 1 if any... And they don't get mine... And other times they jsut get 1 of them... Stange... :S
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cohowap:
Did you turn "Facebook Chat" on?

I can't even get past that step, all I get is a dead page.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MartyLK:
Mine, with Mango, doesn't show FB content. The only thing the people hub shows is Windows Live content. I have the FB account setup, too. My Focus with NoDo shows FB content, though.

Oooops...spoke too soon. It just now started showing FB content...this is the first time since flashing Mango that it has shown. lol...maybe it was waiting for the opportunity to contradict me.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BellPego:
In mine everything about facebook works great.. All content of all kinds... Friends, calender.. All of it..

The only thing not working well is the facebook chat.. Messenger works great... But only in facebook chat messages don't show up, or just one out of 5 sent to me show...

Facebook chat is on and I can see my online facebook friends...

I thing this is a messenger thing, because in live.com messenger same thing happens.. Any ideas...?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BellPego:
I tested in Messenger 2011 and same problem... Could it have something to do with the new Facebook Chat... It worked well before the change...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maroon Mushroom:
What you've probably noticed is that on your chat settings, when you try to enable the FB chat, it goes to a non existent web page.

Here's the work around:

Go to to your live account on live.com, go to profile, and you'll see the other accounts at the bottom (FB, youtube, etc) click on facebook, make sure chat is enabled, and hit save.

You'll have to type in your FB email and password. Now when you look at your phone, under the messaging settings, you'll noticed that FB chat is enabled.

You will probably have to manually resync at the very least for it to work. Other people have reported that it just takes time for your contacts to show up, and some other people have had success simply waiting because eventually they showed up for them.

Hope this helps.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BellPego:
By luck I had done all that.. Just had to re-sync manually and everything worked.. ;)

Now the missing messages is really bugging me... :S
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maroon Mushroom:
Yeah, I haven't heard of anyone else that has that problem either. That would bug me too.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rustybob:
I've found that this is just an issue between Facebook chat and however Microsoft implements it. I've been using the Facebook chat integration in Windows Live Messenger 2011 since it first came out, and it can be sketchy at times. There are some people whom I'll appear online to, but they can't send me a message if I'm only logged in through Messenger. If I'm viewing the Facebook page, they can message me.

I also find that sometimes messages can take a long time to go through, if at all sometimes. It seems like every message will go through if you message back fairly quickly, but those that have been sitting for a while take a while to go through.

I also sometimes find that people will appear offline for no reason through Messenger, but everything works fine on the Facebook page.

I would imagine all these same problems from Messenger would also be there for the most part in Mango. It's an annoyance, but it has certainly made Messenger a lot more useful, and definitely will be a useful addition to Mango.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rustybob:
I stand corrected, the Facebook Chat support in Mango on my HD2 is actually working flawlessly. There hasn't been any missed messages, and only a couple have come in slightly delayed (no more than 10 seconds).

I've also been using my computer that is signed in with Windows Live 2011, and messages that come in and say the other person is offline, that isn't happening in Mango.

It's only been a couple days, but I'm impressed so far.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BellPego:
Mine started to work fine 2 days ago... :)

No clue what happened but glad it's ok now.. Loving Mango so much... :)

I bought my HD2 after having the Desire and I got hold of the network unlock key so was free to use any network. As i'm on Three I updated with a Generic ROM and all was fine for around a week and then I got the White Screen but a Soft Reset got me back running.

Now my ROM will load but the phone is so slow I dont know how to get it back to speed. Ive put the stock T Mobile ROM back on but this does not help.

What Can I do? I think after reading that it may be a radio issue but im not that clued up here so thought i'd ask at XDA whichg ive been using for years.

If I could send it to someone to get sorted out that would be easier and i'd cover the costs,m postage and the drink for dong it.

Any advice or takers please?

Regards

My phone is a euro model and ive just flashed with an Engergy Leo21916.sense25.cookie.2.0.GTX.June01

Not sure what the radio is as included with the ROM

Please help. Ive tried all types of ROMS etc and im sure its just an issue of the wrong ROM & Radio.

Will install the ROM but will just loop on first install even if i reset throughout

Liuke I said before if I could send to someone to fix it I would be most grateful.

The stock rom would be fine but would prefer the unbranded if posssible

Many thanks

[HD2 General] stevedebi:
NRG ROMS don't contain radios. You need to visit the first page, where they recommend radios.

I would suggest downloading the official ROM for your HD2 serial number from the HTC website. Then flash that from the SD card. This will put everything, including the radio, back on the device. Then you can go from there.
[HD2 General] jayknight71:
Many thanks for all the answers but their not helping unfortunately. I installed ther following a Laurentius26 ROM with the following radio 2.12.5.02_2 amd finally the phone booted up after a few hours and I could slowly make my way round the phone. To press the window key would take atleast 30 seconds top bring a response. I dont know what Is causing this and it seems like the wrong ROM & Radio is on as the phone used to fly on tjhe stock ROM.

Ive tried to reinstall the Tmobile ROM but it's just the same either way and any other ROM I try does the same.4

Is there anyway of cleaning off everything from the phone and starting again from scratch as it seems definantly that there is a conflict somewhere with the software.

I opened sys info on the phone when it was working and copied down the following just inase it helps.

OS Version 5.2.23148(23418.5.11)

Manilla Version 2.5.20212114.0

ROM Version 2.05 WWE

ROM Date 06/06/11

RADIO 2.12.5.02_2

Protocol Version 15.40.50.07U_2.12.5

Please HELP! Someone out there as i'm just about stuck and i've been playing with Smartphones since the first launch of the Orange Smartphone 10 years ago.

Many thanks in advance

[HD2 General] orangekid:
flash task29 THEN flash another custom ROM, this will ensure any leftover **** gets erased, you might have something in NAND carrying over from ROM to ROM, none of the current radios will slow your ROM down like you're describing.

It's either this or hardware.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
also try the above with your sd card and sim removed, its not unknown for a faulty card to play havoc with performance.
[HD2 General] jayknight71:
I tried task 28 and it never let me press the volume down at 99% so dont know if worked. Still running slow but it is running.

Wouldnt of thought was a HW issue as it was working fine last week. If I need to return to HTC where would I do that in the UK after installing standard T Mobile ROM?

Many thanks and any further help going on Flash 28 and how to do it successfully?

Regards

Jay
[HD2 General] jayknight71:
sorry task 29 LOL
[HD2 General] jayknight71:
I attempted Task 29 but after my device went straight into loading a ROM. I thought that Task 29 removed all ROMS. Info etc so you had to reinstall. What am I doing wrong as I followed the instructions to the letter from one of the posts on this excellent site.

Am getting really annoyed now. Is there someone who could do this for me if i send and pay for return postage and a drink please?

Any further info and will try again tonight one more time

Many thanks

[HD2 General] Dr.Move:
I know that this may sound strange, but try formatting your SD card. When my phone starts behaving badly, fully formatting the SD solved the problem. Checking it for system file errors usually gives the same results, but doing a full format using the SD card formatter at first gives better results.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
you probably have a ROM loaded in your SD card.

if your SD card root has a file called LEOIMG.NBH then it will try to flash it immediately on booting the phone, it's part of the SPL instructions. Delete or rename that file or cancel the flash.
[HD2 General] Dr.Move:
I you mean me, no I don't flash through SD. but that's a good advice as well.

when the SD has severe System file errors, I noticed that my phone ran extremely slow. correcting those errors made my phone return to it's snappy self.
