@hjhjhj

Sound advice thanks again my friend

Its not that i dont want to use the oneshot cab install - i guess i will have too eventually

just remember when this rom was first released the trouble i went through -so frustrating - spent almost 2-3 days and nights trying to get it to work fooked up a few sd cards along the way - cab install errors the amount of times reflashing 7004- then microsoft zune error codes forcing updates etc etc So i guess its my fear of going through that again hence the questions and plus time is not on my side at the mo with a new arrival, study and work but i will follow your guidance soon seems alot easier now.Hope you can see where im coming from im not Trying to be difficult i been away from this forum for a while and im not that techinal.

Re my question about sending cab ie 7720-7740 (without having to backup reflash and partition like you said) will that wipe the sd card?Ie android
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
7720-7740 should not destroy your android partition, but it's a good idea to back up your android to your pc anyway. you never know if your android will go haywire. good to have backup to enable you get back to a usable phone with all your settings and apps in a few minutes. i back up my android after installing any new apps or once a week.

as for flashing yuki's rom, it takes me 2 maybe 2.5 hours to flash everything from the beginning to 8107 using the autoinstaller 7004-8107 cabs method versus the 4+ hours with zune just to get to 7740 from scratch. the autoinstaller 7004-8107 takes you to 8107 in one shot after install v2.1. and you don't have to activate until everything is completed.

new arrival? baby? congrats...you should get rest instead of messing with this so much...lol
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moschino02:
Yeah man thanks..Rest? Lol Are you crazy?I missed so much being away from here got ICS yesterday - running sweet and hope to sort wp7 soon. I will try cab 7720-7740 first - if that fails i will def try your method. I Know what you mean about backing up -learned my lesson for sure!You said next wp7 update 8173 is it? When is it likely to be released? and if this rom will not supported (i assume no more cabs) How we gonna update if zune keeps saying phone uptodate?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] pvt_nemesis:
I don't think that would wipe android buy I've only used 8107 ready roms.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moschino02:
Thanks. Oh yeah I could also think about 8107ready roms cant it

Where are these tutorials:confused: Your right it would be very useful instead of starting from scratch and seeing as i relied on zune for this ROM.

downloaded "7720-7740-6mn" its a cab file right?

placed it as it is, into wp7 cab sender folder ..

double click batch file to send and i get this error?

what am i doing wrong?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
copy what? your android partition? all you need to is place the microsd in an adapter, plug it into your pc and use file explorer similar tool and copy all the files/folders in the android partition. to restore...just copy the backup files/folders back on to the sd card.

to partition the sd after wp7, there's a cab created by xbmod (see related thread in post#2 ) that runs from yuki's rom that will create an android partition for you. be sure to install the storagelock.cab when you get yuki's rom installed. the storage lock/unlocker works with the android partition cab AND whenever you want to boot/into android doing a dual boot with yuki's rom.

here is the related thread..

are you currently on 7720? if so, then your installation may have gotten corrupted somehow.

as for 8773, who knows when microsoft will officially release it. yuki's rom should update via zune to 8773 when it is released. some of the other roms don't have the ability update via zune. this means a fresh install and reinstall of all your apps and email accts.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moschino02:
@hjhjhj thanks for the quick guide -top man -done all this before just refreshing my memory

The sd unlock tool is that only for BFFT rom? Why

I actually forgot about the Dev_extrapart cab - i thought we partition using easeus partition manager program? After flashing wp7 and then stick android on it..just explain Where does this come in again?and why? And do we use both to partition? Or can be done by just cab?

Last question, Yeah im on 7720. android is backed up on pc.

Bearing in mind my sd card is partitioned and that- i got the sd unlock tool and dev extra part on the wp7 installed. ---must remember to unlock sd first----

Can i take the lazy option and go into magdlr / usb flasher then flash eg a wp7 8773 ready rom(assuming this would wipe the sd card ) partition sd card using easeus then adding android --would this method work in theory? (Not considering any lag freezing issues at this moment)

i know im not being sensible and doing it properly ie task29 format sd card.. But would it work?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dbsportsbrit:
unlock my card

I am trying to find the xBmod-Yuki basic rom 2.1 so I can unlock my sd card to use on wp7 rom but it is Multiupload and that is no more so is there a place to get it so i can do this

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
I replied to your post in the Tiger Rom thread....please just post in one thread, instead of posting the same question in multiple threads.

---------- Post added at 05:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 AM ----------

the unlock cab works on any rom (so does devpart tool), but yuki's is the only one that locks the sd card like a real wp7 phone does. locking the sd is a security measure for when you lose your phone...makes it difficult for just anyone to access any personal data on your sd card...makes it look like the sd card is useless.

please read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1250869 in the android section for partition tool info. this should be flashed as the last cab installed after all of your other wp7 cabs and you're phone is working and stable. again, refer to the thread i have indicated. you can always do the easus method, but that means several steps. with dev_part, it's one shot...flash the cab, reset (can't remember if it's a hard reset or just power off/on). no need to take the sd card in/out of the phone and to the pc. devpart is the lazy way. anyway, you should have the devstoragelock.cab installed before devpart is installed.

you should always task29 when flashing a new rom...even though it's essentially wp7, each flavor is of varying size and features, thus you want to clear out memory of any remnants from other roms.

will be out of pocket for the next several days...going on vacation.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moschino02:
Enjoy dude- dont get yourself arrested .anyway Thanks for all the info great help for sure
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
thanks...and i won't get arrested. too old for doing things to get arrested. lol

hope you get your wp7 up and running...let me know.

as for task29, people say it's not needed with wp7, but i'm of the school...it doesn't hurt anything, it can only help, and i have yet to have any problems with flashing anything on my hd2 as i meticulously use task29 before each flash.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moschino02:
@hjhjhj just a few more things if you dont mind

You didnt say if my lazy method would work "in theory" (obviously not sensible i know) Ie press unlock sd card using storage tool on my current yuki rom>reboot hd2 go into magdlr option 5 usb flasher>flash eg a 8107 ready rom (wiping partition)> send storage unlookncab and dev_expart cab to partition sd card reset> add android via sd adapter to dualboot.

And From the above method when i flash wp7 rom im assuming i would recover the full capacity of my sd card?? Yes or no?

Ok onto second point (not relating to above method)

Say When i unlock sd card using storagetool cab on my wp7rom.then How would you format the sd card to recover full capacity?? Before i flash eg v2.1- Because when i put sd card in sd adapter onto pc it only shows half obviously cos its partitioned? Easeus is it? Or is there another way shall i use remove dev_extrapart first?

Third point . At which stage do i do task 29? After i format sd card go into magdlr and before i flash wp7 . I take it, it doesnt remove magdlr and any radios right?

Cheers bud
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
your lazy should work long as you do the services part of the process. not any different from doing task29...only part that is different and reinstalling magdlr.

task29 is always the first thing to do if you want to flash a rom. it removes magdlr not radio.

full capacity? whenever you flash wp7 it reformats the whole sd...your existing android partition is wiped out...per previous posts. then you'll have to re-establish your android partition using any method you choose. it doesn't matter which partition method you use...xbmod's cab saves you the trouble of taking your sd card in/out over and over. make sure you unlock before removing yuki's rom.

just you understand all the other roms have issues with letting you install some or all of xbmod's tweak cabs. so just fyi. ansar and hd2o's won't let you install any of the tweak cabs. pdaj's - only some of the cabs can be applied...he has his own tweak tools you can install, but from my experience and readings they aren't all that stable even on his own rom depending on your set up. i just he has a new version out with his tools already built in.

the partition cab is a one time use cab. after it partitions the sd...it disappears off the system. you never have access to it anyway unlike other apps. it's only for partitioning.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moschino02:
Think i should be fine now massive thanks

What "services part of the process" are you refering to?

& Full capacity - you said when i flash wp7 it reformats the whole sd card so will i get my full 8gb capacity even though its partitioned 4gb eachway for dualboot.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
in magdlr...10 services...clearmbr, uselast24...if you don't do this your flash/wp7 won't work.

yes...wp7 flash by default uses the full capacity of the sd during installation.

Wifi issue

after a very long time use of this ROM all of a sudden I can't connect any more to any wifi ap, when I look in the registry under Hkey_Local_Machine\software\drivers\wlan\macaddr\ under value data I've got Unsupported type: Unknown (3) as mac address

Anyone has a solution for this problem? I would hate to flash the phone again...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
check what it says in Settings...About for the mac address. Only way to solve is try putting in a valid mac address. weird how/why your mac address got wiped out.

as the mac address changes with each reboot of wp7, try this address...then soft reboot and see

if you get a new address. 00-18-41-B8-10-57

remember it's type binary in the registry. if this doesn't work...hard reset or reflash.

Battery drain with build 7720?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Starfury:
Another 7720 success story here. Props to all the devs and testers who made this happen.

Couple of questions.

1. I installed all the languages, is there anyway to remove the unnecessary ones via the tool that we used to install them?

2. Any idea what's going on with the sound levels? Previous ROM was Twilight 7004 ROM and the normal volume level was 12. With this new ROM I have to drop the volume to 6 to stop it from being distorted. Is there anyway to tweak levels?

I hope you realize this ROM is no longer supported by the chef nor any one else. So if there is something you don't like about the ROM there won't be anymore updates other than from MS.

And btw, Facebook is an app and NOT part of the ROM. The Facebook app is from MS. And for the filemanager functions use TouchXperience in conjunction with the desktop companion piece.

Screen time out

another issue with my HD2 :(

Whenever my screen times out (it was set at 1 minute) and try to wake it up it won't come back, I just got a blank screen. Now I disabled "screen time out" but with the bad battery performance of our phones that's a bad thing.

Also when a call is finished the screen blanks out, the phone is still powered on but I can't see anything on the display.

Anyone got a solution for this 1? :(

Thankz!

uh...just manully turn the screen off..you may be having hardware screen issues. which rom do you have installed.

---------- Post added at 05:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 AM ----------

i dual boot and it's no hassle. just set magdlr to always display the menu at boot so you don't have to hold the power button to show the magdlr menu...this way you can always choose which os you want to boot. and like robbie p suggested, put the unlock app on your start screen. that's how my phone is set up...it's not a hassle at all.

as for the only rom without battery drain issues...it's because the chef (Yuki) did an awesome job and did all this independent of dft and long before dft by using the base ms rom and not add a lot useless tweaks.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] crayola555:
Hello people, I have not done any phone flashing for so long, got a question.

If I update this rom by Zune to version 8107, will it reformat the sdcard and will the apps stay? I have dual boot, just want to be prepared if the sdcard gets erased :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
Any WP7 rom will reformat the sdcard. You can just copy your Android partition to a backup then copy the backup back to the repartitioned sdcard after WP7 flash. This way you won't have to reinstall android.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
there is one-shot update process. read the chef's posts and instructions in this thread and the companion sp1 thread.

the GPS does work fine.

The initial location is calculated based on cell phone towers, its not accurate at all but should get you roughly in the right area. GPS can take a while to get a fix, it depends on where you are, interference, obstructions, climatic conditions.

It sure is sad Yuki & XBMod stopped working on this rom as it allways has been the one i use on my HD2. The downside for me personally was it takes ages to update the rom to the current version. Thats why i started to build my own version of this rom so i can flash it and i allready have an updated version (8107).

It's fun to figure out what runs and what not but it takes a loooot of time though.

Tested my personal build today and it's doing okay but i need to fully unlock it to make some things working from other roms :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hjhjhj:
why do you need to find another rom? unless you want all those add-ons found in other roms. yuki/xbmod never had any add-ons chosen by the chef. it's pure wp7 and stable! also, it's the only one that will update through official microsoft updates without the need to reflash from scratch.
