[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] GreatLorens:
I may agree with you the performance is much better now except some things

1st there is extreme battery drain when using Wifi if not is ok but i use Wifi and i have a big problem now

2nd The sound is bothering me a lot. I can agree that we have better sound for music / and better sound in-out calls. but we have bad sound at the ringer and notifications (you have to put volume above 25 to listen the ring in crowed places and its too loud if accidentally forget to reduce if you play game/see a video /listen music etc.

for me the best result was the sound_Low_ CAB but...

That's why i want to take it off.

Ok some apps work now / HTC hub works (not important) / Camera works better (important) so as you see it's a half work . I Know Xbmod try for the best but for me it's very complicated to install the ROM too many problems during installation both times i have done that , that's why i'm asking for a REMOVE_CAb otherwise i will have done the installation from the beginning.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] huismeester:
I have no battery drain at all 20 to 24 hours with wifi on that's pretty good for a hd2

you sad bad sound at the ringer i think you mean ringtones

well for working that ok volume 12 to the highest volume.

regards huismeester
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] sexcellent:
i'd like to report that after adding SP1 cab my battery life has gone down substantially. I am getting less than 1 day of battery life now. Before SP1, the camera trick used to give me about 2 days of battery life. Now, after SP1, the camera trick does not seem to work anymore. I'm glad I backed up before i applied this cab.

Anyone experience the same problem? i will report back if things change.

Edit 1: I also noticed that after installing SP1, I cannot shut down without a battery pull. When i hit the power, the phone locks up on the "Goodbye" screen.

Edit 2: I then noticed that the Wi-Fi was also randomly turning off. I remembered hearing that people had this issue because of a conflict with the Dev_Wifi cab and the Internet Connection Sharing cab.

So I REMOVED the Dev_Wifi cab and that seems to have resolved my problems.

After that fix, the Wifi is staying on, the phone is properly shutting down, and most importantly the battery life seems to have improved again.

This rom is dated as for 13. december. Anybody tried it? Is there anything worth there or just that xap installer? I'm stil downloading it, access to the chinesse sites are so slow from here...I have perect working xbmod-yuki sp1 and don't want risk it and go thru install process once again. I have Pdaimatejam Rom Wp7.5 mango 7740 v4 laying on my hd too, not touched jet
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dr_strangetrick:
Just wanted to echo the improvement in battery life also, well done XBmod-Yuki
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] mtosic:
For all of you with battery drainage issues:

I also had very fast battery drainage after applying SP1 (I had 7740 and Internet sharing cab applied before).

So I restored my device to Mango backup, applied again 7740 cab and SP1, and voila, everything works. BatteryTool reports -7.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Dewinter:
personally i dont like the dft 7740 rom, you can't send any furture update cabs or custom cabs to that rom,on the other hand ,xbmod-yuki rom is more like the native Windows Phone which works perfect.

the only benefit of the dft 7740 is xap install via IE, and the policy system is cracked, you can freely run any pirated XBL Games, that's all.

Dont use dft 7740 rom , XAP ie install can break the wp7 eco system. i hate this
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dddrko:
I 100 % agree with you. Xbmod-yuki (with WP1) is surley the best wp7 rom for hd2 around. I only change radio (v5.51), do the clean install withouth using last 24mb of nand, and I have stable, fast and low battery consuming phone!

I've tried dft 7740 by the way. It has bad camera, bad sound, etc.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Tsury:
why without last 24mb?

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] silver_surfer30:
Hi there. I have install the 7740 ans now have issue with GPS. Cannot find any satellite.

Does anyone encounter same issue ? Otherwise everything is working great but battery drain. Do not last more than 20 hours. Will test all tips.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Whatdoyaknow:
I was just about to ask the same question.

I'm finding GPS signal will be OK for a few minutes (to about 30 mins.), but then I get the "Cannot find any satellite".

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

(Running 7740, SP1, DEV_WIFI_PLUS_LEO_REMOVE.cab)

Hi xbmod

Waiting for your great work after great SP1

thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] rararafael:
I did exactly the same as you a few days ago, but I still continue having problems with the battery.. there is something else draining the battery. Can you please tell me which cabs you have installed in Mango?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] GreatLorens:
Please notice that !!

Yesterday i un-install the Battery app and today i find out a big difference , battery lasted longer. But also i'm 100% sure that the wifi causes a lot of battery drain to the most people here. (unfortunately we have some exceptions to that matter which as always prevent us to find out what is really the problem)

but please guys try different things to see what wrong like one im posting for battery app.

The most interesting thing is that we have the same device / same Rom / but still you can read in here a lot of different stories !!! so i suggest we should make a new post only for that HTC_HD2_Xbmod-yuki ROM -Battery and everybody giving a fact should give full details of Country live / Device origin / Battery(official -unofficial years usage) /Charger /signal / (main usage) / Use of Wifi-BT-3G etc/ What Micro SD card use / TEL settings (on-off) maybe to find out more what you say ? Cause alll that is not making sense !
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kid1988:
I would really like to see a CAB of this, especially the clean one.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dazza9075:
Actually i posted something like this ages ago and at the time no one seemed to take any notice, probably lost in all the FUD.

you are indeed correct, we use the same device (essentially) and the same ROM (most of us)

we know wifi and BT sucks power, but thankfully that can be turned off, we know how to turn off background apps, and can install whatever radios, so there is nothing to stop us creating similar devices and setups,

some of us have amazing battery life, others dont, if we remove the wifi/BT/background apps from the equation then the only two differences between devices across all of us are the SD card and the carrier network, and one of those can be turned off, of course the batteries are different which is a problem.

Could it be, that potentially the high battery drain seen on some devices is as a result of the SD card, we know it buggers other things up, can create lag, freezes and resets for no apparent reason, perhaps its doing other stuff too...

food for thought.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dddrko:
Don't forgot the radio (both hardware and software) versions. In my case with radios > 5.61 (where camera trick doesn't work) I have constant ~40 mA drain (bt off, wifi off, data off), no matter wich hardware radio version I have. With 5.51 radio and hw radio 2.12 (or 2.14) after using camera trick I have ~5 mA. I notice again that this vaues are just my experience, I read oposite comments here. Probably the different carier and hardware (I'm on eu leo 512) make a difference.

SP1 drivers are big step forward in HD2 WP7 rom cooking, new camera too. They are not perfect jet, but lot better than old ones. As from the very begining and the concept of small, upgradable rom, xbmod is on the right way in producing quality wp7 rom, not fooling around with fancy add ons
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Fmstrat:
I'm going to test this next week. I've got an 8GB Class 4 in there now, and installing software is SLOW. I've noticed hangs/etc since using this card that I never had with my 16GB (granted it was a pre-nodo ROM).

I never ran Yuki's on the 16GB. So, next week when I'm back in NC I'm going to migrate from my 8GB over to my 16GB and see what happens with everything else being the same.

I'll post back with results.

Thanks,

Ben

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] GreatLorens:
I Have just realized something else also guys. Which i can't prove its only a thinking , maybe Xmbod can answer or someone who knows better.

my Thinking is as following.

Installing this Rom is possible by Two options

1st. By Xbmod cabs

2nd By Zune

BUT in Zune our device is recognized as HD7 and there are some special improvements for this device by HTC on zune official update which i don't know if included in XBmod rom.

Since i can;t go to mango update through zune maybe i don't have something that other people already got. and maybe that is what makes differences.

maybe who can tell? except the cooker ? /Maybe it's a nonsense but maybe true

battery drainage is very inconsistent with SP1 on my phone. i found it so frustrating that i had to restore my pre-SP1 backup.

interesting note: on SP1 before restoring I had 30% battery. After restoring 3 minutes later I had 50% battery.

FYI i have TMOUS HD2 with 7720
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] custardbomb:
Is anyone aware whether it makes a difference if you update to 7740 having previously installed SP1?

I found battery reporting to be inconsistent in 7720 and 7740 without having SP1 installed. Rebooting the phone would regulary show different battery levels after the reboot, as opposed to what was reported before the reboot.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Whatdoyaknow:
I updated via Zune to 7720, but have had a problem with hi drain when everything is on including background stuff. Greatly improved with B/T, cell data, background and Hub (etc) off. Bat saver seems to help also
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ketzazu:
I left my phone plugged overnight to get charged. In the morning, the battery got damaged and can no longer get charged. I don't know if the battery lived its last charge or if the update killed it prematurely. Luckily, I had a spare battery.

I have high drainage and charging issue with Ice Scream Sandwich. I think I have to restore also.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Pedro78:
With battery full charged in the morning (8am) I keep about 50% at 8pm with normal use (mail sync every hour, no backgroung task like evernote etc).

I install XBMOD ROM starting 7704 and done upgrade via cabs to 7720 then applied SP1. Unfortunately not able to upgrade to 7740. I also downgrade radio from 2.15 to 2.12. Zune never proposed me to ugrade to 7740.

Think this config provides good results regarding battery life.

If that could help.

wifi is connected, 1/2 hour later when you press the icon, goes to black window and says loading .....loading 10 min later... pull battery out to restart.

phone is hotter then normal.

do not install sp1

cheers and good luck
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] srdjanLeo:
I'm not sure are we all talking about same device here... It is IMPOSSIBLE that a lot of users here say that this is great update and just few say it is not and they are sure that they did everything like they should...

I don't have any problems with this Rom after SP1 update... and, I'm using HTC HD2 T8585... Make sure that you have HD2 and not other kind of device... o.O

This Rom is NOT!!! slow, buggy, he doesn't freeze, WIFi works like it should, battery drain is a lot better then before... Many of users here can confirm this.

If you install SP1 after flashing Rom, he should freeze permanently (brick) because u r to lazy to read instructions.

He has few buggs but they are too far from bed Rom...

And i believe they will be fixed soon. XBmode is hard-working developer ;)

So, all of u who says he freeze or he is slow, buggy etc. make us all favour and go back to the first page of this thread. READ!!! Instructions and then post here.

It's not fair to XB that you say there's something wrong and YOU are the one who made mistake somewhere. :S

And once again, install 2.12 radio... for better battery life.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] tarmizizain:
just want to share my experience with SP1 regarding the battery life :

1. i got 23 hours top with 15% remaining battery with 3G/Data ON,Location ON,Wifi few times,background task ON.

2. I got 3 days battery life on standby. Just a few phone calls and texting. Everything else is Off except Background tasks ON.

so, its weird how some peoples had bad battery life and some are not..

so i guess for me SP1 is pretty decent.

maybe you just need to go for few cycles with full empty and full recharge..sometimes it takes time for the phone to adapt with the new OS.

:)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SwiftNick:
Had to remove SP1 very poor battery life

I'm wondering if other applied cabs can affect the perfomance of this ROM?

I'm running:

Magldr 113

ROM: XbMod_Yuki_v2 Rom updated to 07.10.07720

RADIO: 2.15.50.14

(RADIO: 2.12.50.02_2 caused frequent GPS signal loss)

SD Card: Sandisk Class4 32Gb

I have applied:

DEV_TASKBAR_XBMOD.cab

DEV_AUDIO_GAIN_LEO.cab

DEV_UNLOCK.cab

DEV_EXTRAPART_5G.cab

DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab

HTC_MEDIASHARE.cab

OEM_DEV_KEYBOARD_2_LEO.cab

Before SP1 with general use i get about 1 day. With SP1 applied it drops to about 5 hours.

If members with good battery life could post thier actual config then maybe we can identify the pattern that works best.

Everything working great so far with 7740 and SP1 cab. Compass not working but is already on Xboxmod's radar. Icon cab looks great and is working fine. Over heating is my only issue.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ketzazu:
I don't know how far you are but it is recommended to do an about>phone reset [ phone needs to be reactivated again therefore do all of your installs before activating] after each install to free up memory assuming your sd card is not inside the phone. Yes, install one at a time.

With the card inside the phone, I have no space error.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] chrisrj28:
I did the about phone/reset phone option then immediately after booting to the homescreen I made the attempt.

Yeah I did a hard reset with my sdcard in and it shows up fine. After doing the about phone reset I did not install any apps or even setup my activation. As soon as it booted to the start screen I attempt to send the .cabs and no luck. I tried the ones I wanted together first and then I tried one by itself and no dice :confused:

Been a little frustrating haha

please do a hard reset at the 12345 bootscreen in magldr. i think that should solve your problem with the space

Hello all,

after i installed the shortcuts from xboxmod for Wifi and Bt which works fine, i tried my first time to make some new ones.

I wanted more colourful icons with the small frame around like the XBmod icon pack style for the shortcuts.

Okay, i think they look fine and i want to share them!

You will find the cabs here:

For Wifi

http://xboxmod.sylvester20007.com/cabs/shortcut/DEV_SHORTCUT_WIFI_XBMOD_ICON.cab

For BT

http://xboxmod.sylvester20007.com/cabs/shortcut/DEV_SHORTCUT_BLUETOOTH_XBMOD_ICON.cab

For a preview check the attachments!

Install the cabs like the same process as the other shortcut cabs.

Hope you will like them! ;)

EDIT:

Forgot to say, the cabs are signed with the valid certificate for installing on the Mango ROM from xboxmod and Yuki.

Thanks for xboxmods help in this!

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Improve:
Hello, first, thanks XBmod-Yuki for all your amazing work. Thank you XBmod for your continued support and work.

I have zero issue to this point, I'm running Mango (7720). I have not had any issue with xap files or any cabs sent through cab sender except for the ExtraPartition.cab. I tried various sizes, and I installed the StorageLock.cab and used it to unlock first before executing the .bat file but I always get an error.

As stated before 0 issues to this point everything I try works well. I feel I need to add that after finishing update (7720) I only did a reset from setting and not from MAGLDER 123 and DOUBLE vol button reset. So this may be the reason. If anyone has any suggestions their very welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Just having a bit of trouble with sending a 2GB partition so I can attempt to dual boot Android on it.

I can only get the 200mb partition to appear.

I've sent the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab to the phone and installed it correctly, as I now have the the StoageLock application to unlock/lock the sdcard. Now instead of the 200mb partition.

I've been wanting to get a

2GB partition

so I boot up WP7 (7720) and copy the DEV_EXTRAPART_2G.cab into the cab sender folder and then run the script and as far as I know it installs correctly, it doesn't throw out any errors or anything, it seems to work correctly.

However when I go back into Magldr menu and select USB Mass Storage it still comes up as the 200mb partition.

Okay I got a bit of a error log here from the cab sender:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] JonnieLasVegas:
One thing I haven't considered; maybe I just have a **** battery. Could just, simply be time for a new one. I've never, & I mean never had even decent battery life with any WP7 rom, mango, nodo, & the first build. At first I attributed it to the OS. Tried EVERY trick in the book, & then some, with no change in battery life. I love this rom & WP7, so battery life never deterred me. I'm gonna get a new one & test it out, then report back what I find out.
