Amazing work on the SP1, thanks for all the help. There are a couple of things though i would like on SP1.5 or maybe a future SP (greed knows no bounds right :P !)

I am trying to compile a list of wishes from me and other posts on this forum, which are in addition to what are already listed as in progress for 1.5. Maybe we can add to this if i have missed anything

Wishlist

1. Music doesnt play through bluetooth headphones for me, can that be fixed?

2. When i plug different earphones (not OEM) the phone mic does not work. Is that me or does everyone see that as a common problem?

3. Autofocus on camera

4. Multitouch drivers

5. Battery indicator fix and full charging of battery (i know there have been several solutions, but none of them have i found as foolproof and hasslefree)

This rom is already unlocked. You shouldn't need chevron - if I understand correctly.

I have this rom completely standard and I can update it via Zune and install apps from market.

The only thing I need to know is how to cahge it's identity from HD2 to xxxxxxxx
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] unubtanium:
1: Works fine for me with SP1

2: Works fine for me with SP1

3: Reg fix is there but could be baked in to SP1.5

4: HUmm good one, do not think we will get a fix for this

5: Me do not know

:cool:

Also, when Bat charged to 100%, restart and using MAGLDR do a soft reset (no 11.)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hottracks4:
That doesn't matter cuz i registered the activation code with that.. It works.. I can also use the market fully.. But what do i do now? Does it matter if the phone is locked or unlocked? What is the lock for exactly?

Swyped with my Defy using XDA app. ;)

Camera trick doesn't work with radio versions > 5.61. This rom have radio version 5.66 so if you didn't change it before the install, the trick doesn't work for you
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tsury:
In the about screen I see software radio 5.51T (I have applied SP1).

Is this normal?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] tzik1:
sos

i just put to my phone the rom and all was ok untill i done an update!! after the second restart i was no able to use the touch screen !i push the screen and nothing happens !please someone to tell me what can i do
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] JonnieLasVegas:
I had the same problem when I updated using the cab method. I even started over twice & same thing each time. I finally relented & reflashed it, then updated through Zune & was done fast & without any problems! Not sure which method you tried, but if it was the cab method, then give the Zune way a try.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dddrko:
After testing new Pdaimatejam's rom (great work with background themes btw), I've decide to do my way install this time (and with radio 5.51 wich works best for me).

I did:

-task29

-install maldgr

-maldgr>services>clear mbr>yes

-maldgr>services>enable last 24mb>NO!

-flashed rom v2.

Then using WP7-Update-Cab-Sender:

-send cabs until 7932 (somebody reccomends to do this step without sd card, but mine worked fine before so I did it with it)

-send DeviceProvisioning.cab

-send cabs until 7403

-hard reset

-send cabs until 7720

-hard reset

-send 7740 cab

-send SP1 cab

Now everything works great for me! Native Keyboard don't, but I chose to have quality sound and camera raither than my alphabet. I hope that the Native Keyboard developer will solve this isues in the future.

I hope my guide can help somebody.

Thanks to xbmod again for his great work and also everybody here for the suppport.

Can someone please confirm Working 100% Zune update micro Sd card Brad name?

please provide full details card name /Gb / class

in order to buy a new one cause i cannot update whatever to world i have try.

please do not reply if uncertain only those who Did it

(i m saying that cause before i used the 1cab update 7004-7020 (now not existing)) with Kingston 16Gb class 2 and everything was fine / but it wasn't cause i couldnt update normally , so please dont post those cards which accidentally updated & worked like mine (and had never restored when needed)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dazza9075:
there isnt any confirmed cards unless someone has actually used it, used 100% of the storage capacity and then sold it to you. class 2 or 4 tend to work best, but others have had class 6 and 10 working, ive heard less complaints about 32GB class 4 sandisks but that isnt to say you would have a working card if you went out and got one.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] hottracks4:
Also now i'm getting this msg from Zune for updating the phone,

"This update will clean up any Beta update provisioning on your phone so that it can begin receiving updates from production Microsoft Update servers."

I magically mange to send all cabs i found in my computer from old (1 CAB update Xbmod) and finally i got the 7020 update

from there i mange to install 4-5 CABS

After i couldn't and received the error message from attached photo

BUT strangely i even manage to get all updates from ZUNE

now i have the latest update but still cannot send any cabs to my device

i don't know what else to do and i cant solve the problem

Of cause there some cabs (as language ) for example and SP1 that is useful

and anything but i cannot install.

any Idea how to solve that problem ?

I know i installed the Rom the wrong way , but i spend one day yesterday trying everything with no result. And one more thing my device is registered as HD2 still says HD2 but i can use the Marketplace (i Do have activation code ) but...

The only thing i have changed on my computer is that i delete all zunes files on my PC and re -installed them new installation... then came out the error from CAB Sender. But then i could update from Zune. ......that rom will drive me crazy.

----EDIT-----

Sorry for that i do not delete the post it might be useful to somebody

I found out what it was , with zune deleted the fix from WP7& CAB sender file

i oped the CAB sender file again and installed again the exe from first file which says "if needed install this tool" and i manage to send cabs now

also manage to get SP1 sorry for sending so many posts the last two days. Thanks to everybody that helped me go through that of cause a big thank to Xbmod !!!

Even my battery backup is pretty horrible.. Any solutions?

Swyped with my Defy using XDA app. ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] MirandeZ:
hEY IT'S TRUE.

I am with this rom since beggining.

With just 7720 the battery works 20 to 24 hours. Yes I Agree, with battery saver.

Last week i've installed 7740 cab, and after that i've to change battery every six hours.

I always carry three batteries to change.

This is my experience, this is a forum for sharing.

I still use this rom, really enjoy it.

What can I do so to improve the duration of my battery.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Giganten79:
Hi

Hi.

It´s not that i don´t believe you, i truly do :). Try to fully charge your battery, then restart phone and put the charger back in once again. Give it a shot! And then i will give you a tip and that is for you to go to settings meny and background tasks. Turn everthing off and if you like click the checkbox if you would like the programs to start every time you start them.

Hope it will help you a little bit? What radio version do you have? Do you have bluetooth, wifi and 3G on every time? If you have it, turn it off if you don´t use it and then you´ll see a big difference.

Br!

Giganten79
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] MirandeZ:
Testing your knowledge

a) Radio version is the same recommended in this thread for installation process

b) Yes, normally I've always 3g, wifi and BT (paired with headset). And ICS OFF.

c) I'm charging batteries with a external charger.

d) Interessant tip "go to settings meny and background tasks", OK OK Evernote and HTC HUB ON... switched off.

Now testing your knowledge...

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dazza9075:
perhaps its just me but since i deleted those reg entries for getting the camera back on track again my phone appears to last less time, cant confirm that an i dont have the time to run tests for the next few days but it seems a bit odd that it lost about 4 or 5 hours after doing it.

Coincidence perhaps, but food for thought none the less.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Giganten79:
Hi again

B) I think that´s why you have alot of battery drainage :( Bluetooth and Wifi is a heavy battery drainage on every phone. And also if you have your data connection on every time. If i don´t use it it´s always off on my phone, and i think that´s why i have better battery usage than you my friend!

Hope it helped a little bit for you!

Have a nice evening :)

http://www.jayceooi.com/2011/09/16/how-to-install-windows-phone-7-5-mango-7720-on-htc-hd2-video/

updated to version: 7661.WP7_5_trail and updating now to - WP7 IVS BETA (7720)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] tarmizizain:
+1. after applying SP1,i got -5ma battery usage(BT Off,Data ON) and my battery last for 1day and 10hours with 15% remaining., then after deleting the reg edit fix for autofocus,my usage is between -16ma to -29ma (BT Off,DATA On) and it last about 16hours with 20% remaining(well,that's not too bad right :) ) .. and i always did camera trick fyi.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] GreatLorens:
I never had 24+ battery life even before or now BUT i don't have a new battery on . i'm using the original package battery since 2 years now. on W 6,5 lasted 15-16 hrs

Now on XMbod lasted 10 hrs max (no 3g /No BT / 1hr Wifi/ 2-3 calls / 10 min games

After SP1 lasts less BUT not so enormous change as described . It is indeed less and from my notices that caused from Wifi only !! if you have Wifi on now drains dramatically the battery without it its maybe better than before. So i'm waiting for my new battery and i will revert in two weeks maybe to see the difference.

And i can Add that also i have bought i chinese battery 1600mh but the WP7 can never load it full so it lasts the same time with my old one . For that i'm waiting the external charger after i will test it i will revert also to that.

One more thing that for me is important to our conversation is the Charger !

Mine Original Charger is damaged . With that charger Wm6,5 lasted more that 36 hrs and the battery needed 4 hrs about to full charge (full empty) after i bought a new charger that is rapid now and lasted only half time and charges the battery in about 2 hrs (full empty). So i believe all these facts are significant to find out where exactly is the problem. The Rom 7.5 of by itself runs more battery you can see that also on new devices nothing similar to 6,5 but sometimes here if you use the phone continuously 2-3 hrs the battery drains fast.

Keep in mind all these . I' l be happy if you explain what battery you use (new/old) (official/unofficial) charger (original /Rapid) and all the details that will give us a good result. On Windows 7.5 sure is some details if you leave them run on background as you describe before they drain the battery also this is important/

And finally i believe it has ti do also with everybody's Signal.

I Have a very very bad signal at my home (0 or 1 Bar) and the device all time try to reach signal that also consumes battery. When i was away and my signal was full the battery always lasted longer.

So better not to claim for everything Xbmod !!!! without him and the Rest we would have our lovely HD2 m6.5 .

If he can make it better of cause is welcome otherwise we have to check all the above each one depends on his everyday needs. and if you ask me W6.5 battery 20hrs WP7 battery 10 hrs i can surely 100% choose the 10 hrs.

Have a nice day all of you.

I installed the ROM and updates successfully to 7740 with your SP1 Patch.

@anyone

So we can't do the battery fix anymore in SP1? I don't see how to turn auto focus on/off and the 'Continuous Focus' stays 'ON' even after I try to turn it off... Or is the 'fix' not needed anymore?

@xboxmod

Second thing, and this is just a minor thing that bugs me becuase I'm OCD, but when setting the theme accent color there are two entries titles 'green' perhaps one could be named 'army green' (top one) or something and the 'black' accent example square isn't visable and when selected the word 'black' dissapears and it just looks wrong, perhaps if it was a touch lighter/darker, just to make it a little different from the accent selection screens background. But like I said these are minor little things that probably only bug me.

Third, and this has been for as long as I can remember the timezone always stays as dublin after a hard reset even when a different timezone is selected. To fix it you have to go to settings ->date+time -> turn 'set automatically' to 'off' then adjust the timezone. Another minor but bothersome little thing.

Anyways thank you very much for your continued work on the HD2!

There is no problem, before and after 7740 cab and Sp1.

Manage network connections it's normal in my habits, so, I just conclude that the problem WAS background tasks.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Whatdoyaknow:
Not quite that simple. Best you search for detailed instructions.

I'd suggest start with 6.1 install and go from there.

Edit Sorry Windows Mobile 6.5.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] tchoper:
How come you don't read the first post ? And some others as well would be fine...!!

Not a 6.1 but a 6.5 rom ;)

Another total noobie question. I installed SP1, but my firmware version is 7720. I saw some posts where people were saying they lost ICS after installing the offline cab for 7740. Is that true? Is it worth actually moving to 7740? what are the advantages of doing so? I couldnt see anything major except for some outlook server issues or something, which i am really not bothered about

Also, i am finding it really difficult to locate the cab for 7740 update. Any quick pointers would help, or else i can do another round of searching

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] thehustler:
No you will not lose ICS if you update to 7740. ICS will still continue to work fine. The cab for 7740 can be found at the link below

Got stuck at the cab update from 7403 to 7720. It said "timeout reaching the device" after the 40 min update and while the phone was stuck on the htc screen.

Restart phone and do a hard reset on 7403. While Magldr is counting 1234, quickly press the volume up and volume down buttons together and you will see a hard reset screen. Follow the instructions there.

GPS - can't find satellite (after running for a while)

After moving up to 7740, SP1 there seems to be a problem with navigation programs in that the GPS gives a "cannot find satellite" error after running for a while.

I'm finding that it finds GPS signal quickly & will be OK for a few minutes (to about 30 mins.), but then I get the "cannot find satellite" error.

If I press & hold back button and put Nav/GPS in background, then restore it, it will find GPS signal again for a few more minutes (up to about 30 mins) - sometimes it takes a couple of times.
