SUCCESSFUL UPDATE for ISV BETA CLEANUP

Hi Friends,

There are lot of mixed views posted for this update.

Its really simple, all you need to have is your Phone and Computer Synced and in the same timezone.

Start Zune - Connect your phone -> See Available Update -> Click Update Now

And done.... It updates and restarts your phone showing success a the end.

P.S. You may receive an update Error 800bxxxx a couple of times or may be not (I got it just once) at step 5 of 9 - Ignore it - Close Zune - Restart your phone - Run Update again and it will be done.

There is no need of and Reserved Space Allocation, Removing Memory Card, Chevron Lock/Unlock, Driver Updating, etc.

YukiXDA & XBOXMOD have (I guess) taken care of all that stuff to make it a completely upgradable/updatable ROM so we do not have to wory about these details. BIG THANKS TO THEM.

Regards,

Niilesh

Correct. The same issue emerged in the first batch of android ROMs, but then I remember that developers began rolling up updates with change log that mentiod extended battery compatibility. HD7 has extended batt also sooo finger crossed :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Jakeway:
Ive rolled back to 7004 and put over 300mb of music on my phone and its fine, so there can't be an issue with the card right now.

BUT going by last night it seems whenever I use cab sender my phone will freeze the next time it reboots... no matter what cab I am sending.

I think I will sit on 7004 until I get a bit more time later in the day. But if it is always going to freeze after I use Cab sender I've no idea what I can do to fix it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] zoum79:
The freezing on 7008 and 7032 might be due to sim or SD, even when you remove the sim before restarting it still freezes, the best way is to do a hard reset.

Also, at some point my phone wasn't charging on 7032 and even 7720, but I noticed that when I rolled back to 6.5 the same was happening, the left light was flashing green and amber but battery wasn't charging, so I was sure it is a hardware issue, and after cleaning/touching the connectors it started charging again.

Also at somepoint my SD stopped being recognised by phone/pc and nothing worked other than re-inserting it and hard reset after I reach the same version I was on when it stopped working e.g. 7032.

Now I am on 7720 final version and have rolled the radio version back to 2.12.

Hi,

thank´s for the lot of cab´s :-)

but i want to have the sms symbol from Xbox can anyone say me where i can get it?

sorry for my bad English
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] walidhazem:
ok sorry guys new problem, i wanted to download a compass but it said i need the final version of mango 7.5 and that my phone didnt have the api support yet????
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Jakeway:
I think the hardware needs a Gyroscope for a compass. Which the HD2 doesn't have.

Radio 2.12 report 1

My 7720 battery indicator has been acting strangely. I don't know for how long, but it has been impossible to get to 100% battery level when charging. When charging stops (green led comes on) battery level reads 86%. Battery drain has been terrible even with cleanup update on the phone.

Earlier today (5 hours ago) I downgraded to radio 2.12 when phone led was green. By that I mean not charging due to fully charged battery, and as usual battery level in WP7 read 86%.

When phone was restarted after downgrade battery level read 100%! Now, 5 hours later, battery level is 83%. Usage includes a 20 min session of Angry birds :-).

It looks like battery drain when phone is not used is about 1%/hour. A lot better than what I had before downgrade.

I will report back again in a couple of days to tell you about my battery drain experience.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] huismeester:
My opinion it is not battery drain but driver compatible problem for battery indicator
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Dmitryy:
Thank you! So i'm taking this as a "yes, you can flash 2.12 radio to your TMOUS HD2 with Mango on top of 5.51T radio" :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] whistler-nl:
The HD2 actually has 2 radio's, the WM6.5 and the WP7 radio :)

I do get the feeling you are mixing them up. The 5.51T radio is a WP7 radio version and 2.12 (like 2.15) is the WM6.5 radio.

When you flash a new WM6.5 radio version it does'nt do anything to the WP7 partitions so yes it's safe to flash another WM6.5 radio without damaging your WP7 install.

Too bad it is'nt possible yet to flash another WP7 radio without touching the other partitions of WP7 :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Dmitryy:
Thank you for the reply. You are correct I did confuse these two radios, but before I saw your post, I already digged through the forum to get the understanding of the difference between WP radio and a hardware radio.

If I understood correctly, my HW radio is A.12.0.D4, which can be changed if I flash 2.12 radio.

Unlike WP radio, that can only be changed by re-flashing the device.

Please correct me if I'm wrong somewhere, because I'm about to go and flash 2.12 on my device. :)

I'm really tired of bein in "No service" mode and I hope that 2.12 will grant a better reception.

Thank you very much for the explanation, I really appreciate it!!!;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Dmitryy:
Ok, I have flashed the 2.12 radio (it still shows A.12.0.D4 though :)). The signal (reception) is better so far, no "No service" for now :), I'm happy :). Will see how it goes in terms of day-to-day use.

Special thanks to whistler-nl for involvement and help! :)

HTC compass here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DEL7Q88F
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] whistler-nl:
The HTC compass works on WP7 so the missing hardware is not right. Allso if it does have a compass on WM6.5 then why would the hardware suddenly not be there when you install WP7...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Dmitryy:
Just to inform those who may be interested in changing their hardware radio in HD2. With 2.12 radio I got about 10h of extra battery life plus better reception. Thanks everyone who made WP7 possible on HD2, I love it so far :).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] zoum79:
Poceh,

Mine id bringing up a list of available networks when I select manual instead of automatic in network settings, try to activate roaming and check whether it makes any difference, if not, sideload connection setup xapp, it includes most countries/networks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] geirab:
Well, that's my opinion too. After about 30 hours I must say the phone behave the same, but the indicator is now correct with radio 2.12.

Does anybody know if replacing my two year old battery will improve time between recharging? My stock battery has been through a few hundred recharges, but I guess Li-ion batteries do not lose that much capacity over time?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Nevralgeek:
Hi !

I'm trying to install this great version of wp7 but I'm experiencing some issues... In fact I was using a nodo version, and Android without any problem. But for Mango I wanted to double my space and bought a 16gb sd card. The only one available was a class 4 Sandisk. It's not detected (never more than 50mb detected) and it makes my phone overheating. The sd card slot goes really warm.

It'not that hot without an sd-card or with my older 8gb...

Is this card incompatible ?? (Erf 40euros for nothing) or when I'll be able to update to mango (stuck at the second update (7392) Zune telling me I'm up to date) will it be detected thanks to new driver of some kind or something ??

Thank you

HTC Update?

Has anyone got the 'HTC update for Windows Phone' via zune, which is suppose to happens after the beta cleanup?! Turns the phone from RTM to OEM.

Much needed update to fully utilise HTC apps!

XBmod can you shed any light on this? Is a cab possible?

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] neugier:
put this to app section ...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] arzin:
well i got this update and after updating my phone hung and kept going to infinite loop which made it hang all the time even when i rebooted it.so finally i have to reinstall from step 1
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Skyjouby:
Hi,

I have a 32Gb Sandisk Class 4 (for same price) and I had trouble on begining of update.

I don't remember, but the SD driver are not good before a certain update.

Foryou, the better would be to update you HD2 to Mango, but I I told you,

before being in Mango update, my mobile phone stuck because of the sd card. I did the updates whihtout card for the one it is possible and after I did the last update with card.

Arrived on Mango, no problem anymore with the card :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] trendsbze:
I have tried several times to extract the files fro the 2.12 radio but to no avail. All my other radios 2.14 & 2.15 ectract with a custom RUU but this one doesn't.

I have just one file Leo. I had all my radios saved from 2.07 except 2.12 and they all have custom RUU. Any ideas
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] freaky01:
Hi trendsbze,

if i understood you right than you are looking for the 2.12 radio?

Just look in the HTC HD2 Master Radio Thread there you go.

Or if you dont wanne mess up with reading: ;)

Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] KrewsialNL:
Just use a customruu from another Radio and put it in the same folder as the 2.12 radio :) Works like a charm
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Mass13:
will try the 2.12 too, will report later ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ToddeSwe:
My first update on this well done ROM :)

Hi!

Since i was not able to get Marketplace to work on DFT's Green Mango i'm now trying this ROM. I'm on my first update and i have at the moment just ONE question:

Since my experience with Mango i'm wondering, when am i leaving WP7 for Mango with this new versions? At first update or what version? I'm afraid to loose my Marketplace now when it works. :)

eh .... btw, how long should i wait for the update to finish? A good 10 minutes has past now and i'm beginning get a bit worried.... :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Nevralgeek:
Thanks for the reply. I thought my last update (7392) was the one that's supposed to fix sd driver problems.

Will it solve the overheating issue ? Anyone experienced that before ? I mean having a card that makes the phone getting really hot ?

I fear that it's not a wp7 issue, but a sdcard, hd2 or magldr issue.

Because when I installed the rom, it was with my new card inside. And it was hot as hell !! (Almost impossible to touch the bottom back of the phone). The card is hot when I remove it. Not experiencing this with my old 8gb card, nor with no card inside.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
it sounds duff to me, can you send it back?

If you can format it with a nokia phone, or use the cab method to unencrypt it, you can test if it gets hot in a card reader, or indeed in the nokia phone.

It should then be replaced under warranty.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] KrewsialNL:
Cards that are not 'compatible' (like my 8GB Class 4 Sandisk), will force the phone somehow (read: windows phone) to act up like crazy, because it already gets really hard starting up from that card. I can use any other (class2) card without any problems and no heat problem.

Did it also take long for you to start to windows phone with that specific card?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Nevralgeek:
OK you're right it seems to be a card problem. I plugged it in a card reader in order to format it. Windows 7 wrote that it had only a 30meg capacity. And it started smelling like something burning, so I unplugged the card... It was damn hot !

It think it started melting a bit, cause we can guess the microchip under the plastic.

Maybe did I solve the mystery of the famous burning HD2 ?

Maybe can I sell the card for 2000$ like the HD2 ?

Grrrrr I put the package in the trash :mad: I'm stuck with this faulty card I suppose
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
forget packaging, email sandisk, you might get a replacement, that is if you can type with your burnt fingers;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] trendsbze:
I have all the radios since 2.07 I just can't get the 2.12 to unpack for some strange reason. I followed the next post and now all is fine.

Thanks

You're a genius. I tried that and it loaded. There is no way to check the radio version but I will monitor my battery drain for any changes. Thanks a million
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Win_XP:
Anyone to confirm the long battery life with radio 2.12?

Thanks,
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Nevralgeek:
I'll try first to change it where I bought it even without package, it would be faster to wait for Sandisk to replace it. If it doesn't work, I'll contact them, and will hope they won't wait 3months to reply it would be faster to me to wait for the SeaRay for example...:D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] KrewsialNL:
;-) You're welcome buddy.

Hope the drain will be as good for your phone as it is for me (and many others).

Beta clean up working or not?

Can someone confirm that the Beta Cleanup works or that we should not install it yet?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] IzaacJ:
I've installed the Beta Cleanup on mine without any problems :)

To everyone here: is there any news about the DFT XAP Installer coming for this rom as a cab or anything? The possibility to install XAP's from the browser is the final touch this rom needs to reach perfection !

DFT Freedom ROM 7720 Mango

And as the 2 weeks "prohibition" has passed there should be a few devs working on it, right?

Regards!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Win_XP:
The update works perfect, not problems so far :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] IzaacJ:
To those who doubts on the 2.12 radio... Give it a go.

Just did and the first thing I noticed is that I got great reception (went from 2 bars w/ radio 2.15 to all 5 bars w/ 2.12). It also connected to the network faster than before :)

Will let you know about the battery tomorrow :)

Hi i have this problem.After 7403 it goes straight to the final biuld but in the middle an error accures and i cannot update
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] LuckTR:
Ok, this is what I've got so far. First flashed 2.12 over 2.15 with battery approx. quarter down its charge and despite better reception my battery constatly charged only three quarters of total charge. Sooo, after reading couple posts on 2.12 radio, and how the battery charges fully all the way to 100% (using HTC Battery Tool to check this), I finally decided to charge my battery in external charger and than once again reflash 2.12 this time with fully charged battery and...

No more three quarter charge :D. Will do some repetitive charging to test and confirm but so far it's always charging all the way! :cool:.

Hope this helps someone who's suffering the same half ass charging annoyance :rolleyes:.

PS: Drawback to this is need for external charger or properly charging phone
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] IzaacJ:
Well, it's not for HD2 :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] zcdg:
Looks like no more any kind of real development of WP7 for HD2. all real developers switched to real WP7 devices. even last Xboxmod left HD2. Realy who wants to do anything for old device with crappy drivers?

One question.. im using 5.12 with camera trick and i got 2 days battery life with very minimal usage..and only 10 hours battery life without camera trick. so,what do you guys mean that 2.12 has a better battery life?is it with camera trick or without camera trick?..thanks in advance. :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] sweetdoc:
yes indeed. there is no getting away from cam trick..the best solution for me is to port sd android along wp7 and switching to andoid while in long standby and switching back to wp7 when one wants to flirt with it.

Is it possible to downgrade and then update?

Hi!

Since i have this problem after the Swedish language cab installation. I must ask before i do everything over again.

Is it possible to downgrade to an earlier version and then upddate again? :p

Problem solved: Installed the other one for the Swedish language (thanks Robbie P) and now it works fine. :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] tarmizizain:
Well if that so,there's no point for me switching to 2.12 radio since 2.15 did give me good reception and my phone is charging all the way to 100%. With camera trick,my battey can last long up to 2 days. Thanks for reply :)

RE: Unlock SD Card

Hello...reflash down to rom 7392...from there you can use cab sender to send DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab

this will install unlock tool for your sd card (possibility of dualboot) Once the sd card is unlocked, you can take it out and use partition wizard and you can reformat back to fat32...This is another option, in case you do not have nokia phones...hope this helps you out...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] behappy:
You can use the dev unlock tool from here or use a Nokia running Symbian to reformat the card for use in other devices.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Jerome.Ramos:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
Doh! The camera trick works because it is due to the software radio in WP7(.5), any radio below 5.62 will be better after camera trick. When you are changing the hardware(WM6.5) radio it shouldn't affect whether the WP7 radio will benefit from the camera trick.

You may have to retest;)

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
Have you tried installing the ROM and upgrading to 7392 without the sd, switch off and then put in the SD card, hard reset, upgrade to mango (hard reset again)

In the hard reset, WP7 formats your card anyway, but the ROM instructions say format it, so do a FAT32 32kb cluster format just in case.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] pencilcase:
trying this now, got 3 useless sdcards here already and 2 HD2 i need to get done :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
I am not sure, I have read here that someone has used it in 7004. But it seems pointless unless you are trying to recover your card.

Did you do 1234 hard reset since you had the problem?

Remember that the sd drivers up to 7392 are a bit duff hence 2 shot method I posted above.
