Upgrading from Mango Green 7592

Hello! I'm hoping you can help. If I'm coming from Mango 7592 and having successfully flashed all of the Mango builds on my HD2 TMOUS Leo; I'm not understanding exactly where I should begin. I already have HSPL 2.08, Magldr 1.13 and proper radio and I have re-read the instructions several times, but I'm having difficulty with some of the English translation throughout these posts --sorry, as a language expert myself I'm not complaining -- LOVE all of the development work done here on XDA. Let me start by saying I NEVER dual-booted or loaded Android in any way on my device - never liked it.

I started with "how to update" and I chose not to downgrade all the way back to windows mobile 6.5. Do I really have to go back to that stage? What is a fast, slim 6.5 to put on it for this process if it must be done? (there are LOTS and LOTS of 6.5 roms)

Flashed HD2 first splash (done)

MAGLDR already installed and I recall removing the extra 24MB (done)

Delete MBR of SDcard with MAGLDR (huh? I don't understand this one. probably already done? It's been a while since I moved to Magldr 1.3)

Flash the ROM with DWI..set date/time (again, huh? which ROM and what the heck is DWI?)

Install the latest Zune (again, already done. running ver 4.8.2345)

Run Zune update and install 7008,7392 (I would love to get to this stage) I assume you mean two Zune updates, first to 7008 and then check updates again to goto 7392?

All of the downloads have been d/l. At my current OS of 7592, I cannot successfully run the UpdateCabSender and successfully send DeviceProvisioning.cab.pkg to device (yes its in the same folder as WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat) I get the error "No Update Files" in red and then Done. I tried this while Mango is running normally on phone, should it be in bootloader or magldr USB when attempting this? Zune should not be running, right?

I'm just looking for easier-to-follow instructions and insights on how to get this build. I have long awaited this latest release and thought we'd never see it for the HD2. Again, great work guys... but can somebody help? Thanks in advance, and again, no Language or Cultural insults intended. -Peace

Ok

this link to know more about windows phone mango 7.5

it is cool

http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/t...-mango-preview

see it
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] RoleX1:
When I start it without the SD card it says Please insert the SD card that came with your device. And If I start up with the SD card inserted on bootup and then remove it before trying to update the zune it doesnt open zune on the phone..

Can you link me to what your referring to as 7004? (unless that's the name of the original ""rom" that the following step refers to "-Flash the rom with DWI & Set a correct time & date."

thanks

Update: I've tried hard resetting and doing the update and had no luck.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dss4me3:
Wonderfull,

I was just converting from V1 to V2 and while installing Device Provisioning cab, I received a call during one of the startups. error message popped up.

So I started again from scratch. Step one format card. Card is locked???? Cannot format it.

How can i unlock the card?

I know I must be blind or something, but where is windows live messenger in this build?

All I see is facebook chat, do I have to set it up somewhere or something.

My primary Live account on the phone as no contacts and my secondary one is my WLM account and all my contacts show in the people hub but I cant for the love of god figure out how to access WLM?

THANKS Xbmod and Yuki
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
WM6.5 isn't mandatory but it helps clear up the NAND (memory) and if you choose to flash WM6.5 it doesn't really mater what ROM you choose

Again I don't see the point on the MAGLDR 24MB thing but whatever

Removing the MBR (master boot record) just quick deletes the partitions on the sdcard which is just like a regular format (fat32)

DWI.exe is the Windows Application you use to flash WM7 via the MAGLDR USB Flash option

You choose the ROM on the First Post

V1 lets you keep your SDcard working after updating to 7392

V2 locks your Sdcard like a real WP7 device and makes it useless only to the HD2 or latest Symbian Devices

Once a WP7 rom is downloaded you extract it put the phone into USB Flasher mode and wait for the Drivers to be installed then run the DWI.exe found with in the ROM folder

-- Once the ROM 7004 (of you start out fresh) has started up set the correct Time/Date (Date & Time Settings) so that Zune can properly verify the Version on the Phone and check for updates

Now once WP7 has loaded up connect the phone with Zune and it will perform and update check and will find 7008, then after that update is installed it will update it again to 7392 (NoDo)

___

Once you have 7392 on the phone... Copy the "DeviceProvisioning.cab" to where the WP7 update sender.bat is.... DO NOT Extract it since thats what you did.. Its says "No UPdate found" since you extract the .cab.pkg file inside the original .cab file

Before you run the WP7 Update Sender.bat make sure you always run beforehand the update tool with in the HD2-7720fix -- aways

It doesn't Matter if Zune is open but to be safe close out of it ...

Then after the update via the WP7 Update sender is done check again in Zune (connected) for a WP7 update "7403" once it installs that update do a check again and install 7712

Once the 7712 update is done perform a hardreset again set up the phones Date/Time again and now to update to 7720 copy all the .cab files in the HD2-7720fix to the WP7 Update Sender location "MAKE SURE THERE DEVICEPROVISION.CAB IS NOT THERE" then it should it will update to 7720

This Process takes a LONG TIME
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
Since you either 1. Did the SDCardFix or 2. installed the V2 ROM

Your card cant be formatted unless used on a newer Symbian Device

BUT

Since your card is locked to only WP7 v2 rom and all official updates from Zune that means you don't have to worry about formatting it since WP7 formats it after a hardreset (or reset phone from the About Screen)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] RoleX1:
Right, I've reflashed 7004 and tried to update Zune again, It completed step 1 of the update, however, it failed to restart, and instead went into a constant loop of restarting. I hard reset it but that got rid of the update, what do I do now?

There must be a way to restart successfully without having to hard reset..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
SO it installed the update (7008) but when it came to "Restarting Phone" (Step 6 i believe) it failed?

By it failed do you mean it stayed on the update Screen (Phone & Laptop) or that it restarted but Zune never saw it reconnect so the phone loops?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
I think its this

http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/the-ultimate-windows-phone-7-mango-preview
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] RoleX1:
It Installed the update, then said restarting the device, (this is when the device went into a constant restarting loop rather than booting up into windows phone7) after a short while the computer displayed the "update error" message in the Zune updater
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
Do this without the SDCard

Okay Try this Redo the update again But this time pay attention that when it Comes to Step6 "Restarting the Phone"

Once the phone shuts off immediately press the vol +/- to do a Hardreset from the Windows Mobile Bootloader -- Vol + (Before any splash screen)

The Once MAGLDR shows up and does the GO GO GO press the vol +/- again but this time this is the Windows Phone Bootloader and restore Defaults by press Vol -

It should restart again this time it should load up to the Welcome screen and just skip through the steps (Fix the Date and Time) and once in the home screen Zune should see it and finish the update
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] cuspess:
I followed the instruction to task29 > install build 7008,7392 via Zune > extract WP7 Update Cab Sender.zip, install updatewp, copy DeviceProvisioning.cab and all.

Then I suppose to start WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat and press "s", but what I get from clicking the bat file is lot of not recognized message (as shown below).

What is the problem here? anyone had the same problem and how did you solve it?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] rwholden:
Looks like your direct link to the taskbar mod downloads the skin not the task bar! I found it in your ftp site, so no worries, just wanted to let you know.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
Extract the contents of the "WP7 Update Cab Sender" zip to a separate folder then extract the HD2-7720fix.zip and with in this separate folder go to update tool and pick whether you have a 32bit(x86) or 64bit install and run the .exe program once its done loading copy the "DeviceProvisioning.cab" to where the WP7 update sender.bat is and run it again this time you should be present with your options
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] xda2_haseeb:
You Either have ran the .bat file as Administrator or maybe you need to reinstall UpdateWP package :-)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] xda2_haseeb:
Installing Soft Radio?

Is there any way to install "HD2 Latest TMOUS Radio_5.51T.09.29a_22.32.50.10U" on this ROM? I think that the Camera trick isn't working for me & reason could be that the ROM builtin has the Softradio 5.66 while the trick only works on 5.51 or 5.61 :-)

I have a T-Mobile HD2, HSPL 2.08 & Radio 2.15 (although i have tried other Radios like 2.12, 2.14, etc which done improve my battery life on the new carrier)

Any suggestions to improve the battery life would be appreciated :-)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
To use a different Software Radio you need to change the Part00.bin in the 7004 Data.zip and start the process to 7720 all over again... As for the regular HD2 radio then flash away
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] RoleX1:
ok, this just does not work for me.. everytime the update gets to step 7 restarting the phone, it just goes into a loop, i've reflashed 7004 6 times, and tried hardresetting at step 7 and tried the vol+&vol- Vol-- Vol+ before the splash screen, it just doesnt work for me.

When I hard reset it to help it boot up windows phone correctly then the computer shows the error message before ive finished setting up the time date info
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] xda2_haseeb:
Then i think ill stick to this :-P
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] protomanez:
Zune shows update 7008, is up to date. Anyone want to shed some light on how to get to 7392? I can't get passed the cab sender until I get this update :\
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
SO when flashing to 7008 it restarts and sends you to the Welcome Screen and before your done and gives you the error then restarts constantly? Your Zune is timing out way to fast, but it 7008 should still be there since its installed in the SYS part of the phone not the user side so a hardreset won't erase it.......:confused:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] zcdg:
Looks like i predicted it right:) I am glad that it works. Very interesting to watch all posts in this thread. People are so happy. Thanks to XBmod and Yuki.....
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
1. Is Zune the latest Version? 4.8.2345.0

2. Is the time & date on your Phone and Computer Correct?

3. You used v1 or v2 on the first post and updated to 7008 correctly?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] protomanez:
1. Yes.

2. Yep, set to 8/30/2011

3. I'm using v2 and was able to update to 7008 correctly, however update 7392 is not avail.

Thanks for replying :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] firaX:
So you guys having better results with 5.51T radio? I can't test battery drain atm - is it bad for EVERYONE with default radio?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
Did you try a hardreset?

I'm guessing you went into Zune Settings and "Phone" -- and checked for an update
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] protomanez:
Hmm, guess I'll do a hard reset tomorrow, and yeah I'm doing that.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] naeem151287:
Hi Yuki, xboxmod

If possible please release a v3 of the ROM with soft radio 5.51 and the volume tweaks inside. It would save a lot of pointless posts regarding battery, volume and errors with sending cabs etc.

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tachi91:
I'm not Yuki or xboxmod , but I will leave my input, take it as a grain of salt or nothing at all

V3 would be nice but just because you see software radio 5.51 as a good thing doesn't mean the person above you feels the same way... Right now V1 & V2 have a newer radio (.69) but you can change it yourself before flashing.

As for Volume yes its loud but In my opinion and those of others who haven't complained it isn't that loud.. But then again, why not making it lower won't hurt anybody

As for errors sending Cabs it has nothing to do with the ROM since alot of people are making mistakes like extracting .cab files or forgetting to run the SetupUpdateWP7.. or just using .cabs that don't work with the update sender tool in general
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] thehustler:
A small update from my side on the bluetooth issue. Last night I paired my phone with the car Pioneer stereo in my other car and the bluetooth worked perfectly. All calls were getting transferred to the stereo. But the same does not work with my primary car which has a JVC stereo. It pairs and connects to the JVC unit but the calls do not get transferred. I find this really strange because the JVC unit is newer and has a newer bluetooth version, where as the Pioneer unit is really old.

So my guess is that this bluetooth problem is more to do with compatibility issues than with anything else.

Recommendation for who bluetooth is not working. Try using it some other device to see if it works.

Some more data, if it will be of any help.

Bluetooth profiles supported by the JVC unit

HFP (Hands-Free Profile) 1.5

OPP (Object Push Profile) 1.1

A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) 1.2

AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) 1.3

Bluetooth profiles supported by WP7 according to the MS website

Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP 1.3)

Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP 1.0)

Hands Free Profile (HFP 1.5)

Headset Profile (HSP 1.1)

Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP 1.0)

Has anyone had a success with a 32GB SD card installed?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] lemonspeakers:
This is stupid but can anyone tell me why someone would want to spend another 3-4 hours setting up the new V2 MANGO on their hd2?

What does this mean in the future? If yuki and devs release V3, does that mean we all start from scratch again updating all the way up to mango?

Does anyone see where im getting at here? I dont want to spend 3-4 hours setting up my device every time a new ROM, say V3, is released. It's just very annoying and a waste of my time...

Oh, and considering how often chefs makes ROM these days (like every day a new release)? Forget that!

Someone tell me i'm not in the boat alone for future updates from yuki, etc..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] domado:
Yes, it really worked for me too & no battery drain at all, I think..

Battery performance is dramatically improved like 1% per hour battery drain after changing radio soft to 5.51T.

Just change to radio soft 5.51T and reflash from 7004 to 7720 and then do the camera trick. That's it.. Smile!

Now my phone is good enough for daily use.

Thank you for everything that you have done for us & the community.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] a011528:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Moe747:
Ok guys, I tried WP7 out for the first time and it was a pretty good experience. Anyways I want to revert my HD2 back to Android but it seems the SD card is locked as the first post says. So I can just take it out put in a adapter and plug it in too my laptop and then format is completely? Then install Android usually?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] a011528:
I understand you’re thinking and these are early days, V1 & V2, possibly even with a new V3, the overall process is quite long at the moment and perhaps it can be streamlined. But the whole idea and concept is that you can use Zune to install updates directly to your HD2 but more importantly that the you can install future updates from MS directly through Zune to your device. once you’re up to date the future looks good….. let me explain

Another very important concept (and this is cool), the Base ROM will remain the same from MS, but “you” alter it with by sending CAB’s to add a functions and features you like and if you don’t like it, you remove it via a CAB.

So the base remains uniform across devices, but devs, develop a CAB to add, features, settings, themes etc. it’s a new way to think about a custom ROM… early days but still very cool.

checkout the first page and read it, it also has a links to some CAB that are ready today that you can use.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] domado:
Nope it's not that easy if you already installed 7712..

You need a Nokia Symbian OS phone/PDA like 5250, N95, etc to format the sdcard that is completely/securely locked with WP7. That's the only way for now.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] :
Hi,

Firstly, a big, big thanks to YukiXDA, XBMod and all other members of the forum who have helped me enjoy the HD2 to the fullest.. :)

Following the second post in the thread, have updated successfully from 7004 -> 7008 -> 7392. However, I seem to be running into an issue when I try to run the WP7 Update cab sender.bat file.

- The "YukiXDA_HD2_WP7_Updatable_DeviceProvisioning.cab" is present in the folder from where I run the bat file

- I am getting all options (S, B, R and L) when I run the .bat file.

- I have done a hard reset but to no avail.

I did search the thread for mention of the error code 8007000F but couldn't get any useful hints.

Could someone help me get past this point?

Edit: Never mind, I did a complete re-install from step 1 and it fixed the issue.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] a011528:
this sounds like a local client side issue, i would uninstall all versions of Zune and make sure to install the latest.

what error code are you getting on zune (it should show a number)

check out for error table http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2484484

and thsi

while you dont have an official WP7 device it coudl still provide guidance

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] :
Yeah - known issue discussed a quite a few times in this thread.

The weird fix is this: Turn Wi-Fi on, reboot and blue tooth should work fine. It has for me - eg I had the same issue you described and could not connect to my Sony Ericsson HB105 hands free in the car (a legacy from my old SE X1 days). After do this "trick" is connects just fine, nice and loud and no issues.

Compromise is the extra battery consumption by running the Wi-Fi service.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] xshunin:
Hm now I am also stuck at NoDo with that stupid "Storage card not working" screen. I tried to find a solution by searching this thread but it's hard to use that search lol.

So I am on NoDo and it can read my SD card. But when I try to send the cab for 7400 it can reboot just fine...once. The second time it needs to reboot to complete the update I end up at the "Storage card not working screen". After I Vol up up hard reset, it seems to be working...until it has to restart the 2nd time.

Does it have to do with my SD Card or is there another solution there?

Bluetooth problem on V2

I have tried turning on WiFi and then rebooting. It does not work for me. It will not turn on.

Bluetooth only works when I do a hard reset.

After a hard reset WiFi is automatically turned on. Before I do anything else I turn on Bluetooth and it works. But as soon as I turn off WiFi the Bluetooth turns off and will not turn back on.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] thehustler:
As pointed out earlier Wifi needs to be on for bluetooth to work.

@Murdhie - turn on wifi and then reboot your phone. Bluetooth will work.

Another bluetooth update from my side. If I keep my car stereo on A2DP mode and stream music from the phone then bluetooth calls work or else they do not. This brings me to another problem. First I have to transfer all my music to the phone and the second bigger problem is that WP7 does not charge over the USB port of the stereo.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] MeWhoElse:
Same at NoDo on V1, when restarting the phone (off/on) WP7 will not start generally unless plugged in to power (but then somestimes goes in to a reboot spiral till power removed). If wifi not turned on on a restart, WP7 boots up without issue.

Hoping to have time to compare Yuki V5 and this ROM for the registry information around the FM Radio/Bluetooth components. Unless someone else will.

I have problems with transparency lockscreen

if I put as a wallpaper lockscreen I clear the screen image is multiplied with this resolution into practice ........ does anyone know how to solve
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Murdhie:
I'm on V2 at the moment. Are you saying I can go to magldr right now and reinstall V2?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Murdhie:
Thanks for your reply.

I have tried that - as I pointed out in my post. It does not work for me. A Soft Reset or turning the phone off then on - with WiFi on - does nothing.

Bluetooth only turns on after a Hard Reset and only if I keep WiFi on. Are you suggesting I keep WiFi on all the time?

I should point out that I will not be using Bluetooth as extensively as you appear to be and when I do use it the phone will not be plugged into an external power source.

Once again, the reboot with WiFi on does not work for me. I will be flashing the ROM again with a new radio and will report back.

Just for clarification - what method are you using to reboot your phone. Turn off then on or soft reset.
