[HD7 General] GoodDayToDie:
Snow Monkey, you are correct that the HD7 doesn't have a gyro. Gyro is an optional feature added to the chassis spec for Mango devices, but it wasn't in the origianl chassis spec and therefore I doubt any first-gen devices have one.

The typical way it's used is just to make the compass and accelerometer info more smooth and precise. It's not needed, though.
[HD7 General] NachoNut:
Still trying to figure out how to get the compass to work again ever since the mango update. I got the HTC update after mango and everything stopped for the compass after that. Is my only solution really to do a hard reset?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey77:
Can i run both CWM & xrecovery at the same time. There are instructions for the x10 mini detailing how to dual boot them together. Will they work on the Xperia x10i
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Futura2000:
Use DoomLords boot manager and you can have cwm4 cwm5 and xrecovery on.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey77:
Thanks for the replay. I went over to the post and it says i need to have my boot loader unlocked. Is there any way to get them both running with a rooted phone and a locked boot loader? I'm a little afraid to tamper with things I'm not too familiar with
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
Anyone who can help me please?

Running Hyperdroid 3.0.1 CM7 its been working fine

lately a few minor software issues then today when i pressed the lockscreen/hang up button once it was working as if i had long pressed it

so i rebooted, and it got stuck on the bootscreen android logo..

ive tried options in the mgldr menu but nothing!

anyone that can help at all will be saving me thanks
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
What all have you tried to do to correct the issue besides rebooting the device? Have you tried flashing a new ROM, task 29 and start from scratch, restore from a NANDroid backup made with Clockwork Mod Recovery before the issue arouse. These or some of the things you can try. But just tro let you know you may be facing bad blocks in your NAND, but this is the worst case scenario. I say this because you said the following.

The few minor software issues could have been the early signs of blocks in the NAND going bad.
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
Thanks for the reply!

Ok the only thing i can do is load MGLDR 1.1.3 by holding volume+ and on

in that menu option 2. (boot ad sd) says the kernal wont open

but im loading from nand i think so probably doesnt apply?

option 4. USB mass storage works fine

ad recovery says go!go!go! but nothing pc side

USB flasher says go!go!go! and is seen on my pc as removable device 'MGLDR'

what should you advise i do first? thanks again your really helping me i feel like theres no hope!
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
No problem you are very welcome.

I think you meant to say by holding the volume down and power button as this is how you boot into the bootloader.

You are correct option #2 boot ad sd is to boot Android from SD card. It also use to be for booting into Clockwork Mod Recovery back when you had to have two of the files for Clockwork Mod Recovery on your SD card.

Well this tells you that MAGLDR is functioning correctly with this option and your PC is able to communicate with MAGLDR.

Again this shows communication between your PC and MAGLDR.

Unless your HD2 is Hard Bricked and needs to be JTAGed or you have bad blocks in the NAND memory there is always hope. ;)

Again I have to ask have you tried running a Task 29 and then re install MAGLDR and then re flash Clockwork Mod Recovery and do either a fresh install of the Hyperdroid or use a NANDroid backup you made before running the TASK 29. You can also use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to run the Task 29 and re install MAGLDR.
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
lovely thank you for the links! one noob question what mode in MGLDR should i use when running task 29.exe?

AD recovery/USB flasher or USB TTY ?
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
The video tut of task29 says you need to be in active sync? but i can only get to mgldr
[HD2 General] huggs:
ActiveSync is the program that Windows XP and earlier use to communicate with Windows Mobile Devices. Vista and 7 use Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC)

Boot your phone into the tri-color bootloader screen, and run task29 on your computer once the computer has shown that it is connected to your phone. Your phone won't connec to ActiveSync or WMDC while in bootloader, but you ought to be able to run task29 anyways, as long as your comp recognises your phone and connects to it properly
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
thanks for reply Huggs,

how can i get to the tri color screen? i only have mgldr on the phone thanks
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
hold voldown when starting phone to get to bootloader

connect usb

run task29

however i don't think its necessary since flashing cwm should reset all the nand partitions.

enter magldr

usb flasher

flash CWM

enter cwm

choose wipe data/factory reset to clear out any leftover android folders on your sd card

make sure your target rom.zip is on the sd card

flash your rom thru cwm by selecting 'flash zip from sd card'
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
that loads up Magldr, im not using winmob, i was using android
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
holding power starts magldr

holding voldonw (JUST voldown, not voldown and power)

if JUSt holding voldown doesnt start bootloader, you have problems.
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
When in magldr i go to USB flasher and my pc see's it as a removable device but when i run any program like hspl or daf it doesnt recognize it at all
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
ok just holding vol down goes to load boot but says SD kernal wont open or something it flashes up quite fast

i had android on NAND, and im pretty sure the way i done it was so there was only the android OS on the internal memory not winmob aswell
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
well no it wouldbnt, because you run those programs from bootloader, not magldr.

trust me, the bootloader is always there, magldr cant start without it. magldr is, to all intents and purposes, a really fancy bit of code that sits where the winmo secondary splashscreen usually lives. If you removed bootloader, the phone wouldn't do anything, let alone start magldr.

power off

hold and keep holding voldown

tap and release power

keep holding voldown

if you don't get to the multi coloured stripy screen (bootloader) then you either have a faulty volume button, or are suffering from the (seemingly more and more common) ''cant get into bootloader''.

If that's the case, then i cant help you, and i suspect only a JTAG will save your phone.

---------- Post added at 12:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 AM ----------

anyway, forget that for now, how did.........

enter magldr

usb flasher

flash CWM

enter cwm

choose wipe data/factory reset to clear out any leftover android folders on your sd card

make sure your target rom.zip is on the sd card

flash your rom thru cwm by selecting 'flash zip from sd card'

.............go? any luck?
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
ok well bad news then..

power off

hold and keep holding voldown

tap and release power

keep holding voldown

did that and it said "SD KERNAL WONT OPEN" or something to that degree :/

as for the 2nd option with CWM when im in magldr and choose USB FLASHER and my pc see's it i flash cwm on the pc side yeah?

i believe i have the right files isit 'DAF' the application no?

thanks again for your help man id be totally lost otherwise
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
yea, usb flasher, connect usb, run daf.exe

sorry to say its not sounding good :( no advice for you im afraid. there are a fair few threads that talk about bootloader not starting, so read read read, and then tomorrow look up jtag.

sorry.
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
ok thanks man, very frustrating as the phone was working pretty flawlessly with the same rom for months.. then all of a sudden small software issue so i restarted and it just got stuck at the android logo..

the fact i can still use as mass storage or that my pc detects in the flasher means its not totally broken hardware wise?

ok well i flashed DAF and it worked! phone restarted and it said "NAND Kernal wont open" but thats the first time flashing anything worked since
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
just to clarify the DAF did flash and said it worked but i couldnt load the bootloader because NAND kernal wouldnt open
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
nothing more i can say, i'm afraid. I've not seen anything definitive regarding these types of issue.
[HD2 General] se1988:
Can you show us a picture of you screen with that message? Might help us help you :)
[HD2 General] liam.ire:
OK im into the tri color bootloader!!!!! i left it go fully dead then tried vol down and im in

i have it hooked up to laptop usb

what now?! id be happy just to get winmob on it anything working id be greatfull! thanks
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Ok first off only flash the ROM I am linking in this post if you have a T-Mobile HTC HD2. Go to HERE and download the LEOIMG.nbh file that XDA Senior Member orangekid was nice enough to upload to megaupload.com. Make sure you know exactly where the file is as you will need it shortly.Also you need to have at least a 50% charge or more on your HD2.

Next go to the HD2 NAND Toolkit thread and download version 4.1 then install it on your computer. then open the toolkit and you will see a button at the bottom right hand corner of the toolkit that says "Download Drivers". Click on it and download the hd2_drivers_ksubedi.zip file then unzip it and run the dpinst.exe file and it will install the needed drivers on your computer just in case you do not have them already. You must have the drivers installed to get the HTC USB Sync connection you have to have when in bootloader and connected to your computer via USB. When the Serial in the white bar of the bootloader changes to USB you have the HTC USB Sync connection.

Now go to the "Browse" button in the toolkit, this will bring up a window that lets you browse through your computer. Find the LEOIMG.nbh file you download and click on it then click on the "Open" button at the bottom of the window. Now click on the "Install RUU" button in the toolkit. Follow the on screen instructions and let the ROM flash. You can watch thew progress on your computer and phone screen. When it is done your HD2 should reboot and run the set up on the phone like it was just turned on for the first time.

So how is it possible for Microsoft to have now owned Skype but other platforms have the app and we WP7 users don't have it yet? Does anyone know when this will be released for WP7.5?
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Seriously, the deal just closed today. It will come.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Thought it was coming even if they didnt buy Skype. Or Skype is just coming because MS bought it?

Everyone knows that it will come. The problem is WHEN it will come. Not blaming anyone, I knew it when I bough this phone which has no apps, but I'm tired of waiting.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
They only said skype was coming before the end of the year. So hopefully we'll get it before then.
[Windows Phone 7 General] theman60625:
no apps? wp7 has plenty of apps, but it is less dependent on apps than say iOS which is nothing but an app launcher. to compare a 4 year old OS to a 1 year old one when it comes to apps is just plain stupid and idiotic at best
[Windows Phone 7 General] uryu_ishida:
It just closed. Meaning up until yesterday, they were separate companies. And up until last week, for anti-trust reasons, they were not allowed to work together on anything.
[Windows Phone 7 General] greener88:
you should probably settle down.

I'd like to see skype integrated into the messaging hub as well. Probably have to wait until wp8 for that though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
If people are really wondering why the "haters" keep coming here to "bash" WP7, it is largely because of posts like the one I have quoted here, and the attendant fanatical attitude of people who agree with it.

Calling people who have different tastes, preferences, and perspectives "stupid and idiotic" invalidates anything else you might be trying to say.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ammarmalik:
MS will probably release this as an update via Zune. Carriers will take 5 months to test it. It will take another 5 months before everyone gets it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
Still down on the OS update process after how well the Mango update was executed?

And this is coming as an app first, and integrated into the OS (and other Microsoft products) at a later time.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
This post is just plain stupid and idiotic at best.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikroland:
It's coming.... It's possible that the app that Skype planned was retooled/re-planned by a new Microsoft lead team..... I believe it WILL be here before the years end........... And I believe it's going to top anything the competition has to offer.......

Look at the new batch of windows phones getting ready to release or have been released.. They have FFC's and surely that's for something major such as Skype and not just some little OEM app such as the Samsung one....

Then in either the Tango or Apollo update, I believe it's going to be INTEGRATED into the OS.....
[Windows Phone 7 General] HenryTheX:
Hi, I asked this question to them via Twitter, they offcially said, It will do come in fall, which mean, with the ref website they officially provided to find what date is "the start of Winter", before 22nd December, 2011.

Hope it will help:)
[Windows Phone 7 General] the0ne:
I assume it will be in Apollo, tango 1 &2 will be simple updates .. nothing major will be present in those ( few languages , minor bug fixes )
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
And that's something that could be really tasty - Skype chat integrated into messaging with SMS/WLM/FB, updated contact cards allowing Skype calls, etc.

An app in the Marketplace this fall would fill the gap, of course, but real stuff won't come before a next major update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gburt:
Skype 'text' chat

I would appreciate just Skype 'text' Chat to start with. At least some form of interaction with your current Skype contacts would then be possible.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Red Grenadine:
I'd be fine with an app right now, with deep integration further down the line.

Like Facebook or Twitter for instance
[Windows Phone 7 General] hamzie:
through the wait, just get free IM+ for skype chat
[Windows Phone 7 General] rob_p:
Yeah, an app in the interim to be able to make and receive skype calls would be great, as I'm prepared to wait for proper integration such as there is in Mango with WLM and FBC - great work by the MS team, and to be honest, I didn't even realise at first that they were integrated into messaging now - loving it!
[Windows Phone 7 General] pillsburydoughman:
Not here because their sockets api sucks and any IM app has to go through ridiculous hoops for basic functionality. There's a reason why there are no good instant messaging apps on WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] samsabri:
I think there isn't a Skype app....because it will be integrated into the OS. If they could pull it off a 'la the facebook chat/ msn integration into the messaging hub it could be great!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Marvin_S:
indeed and even more obvious: how would it be if you receive an incomming skype call trough an app? You have to be lucky you get the push notification in time and it will be just 1 push notification which for the user will sound the same as a whatsapp or fb notification. So you will easily miss it, this will make the entire skype app useless. Ms will need to revamp the pn system to support tones like incomming calls (or they will probably make some native code so skype can truely run in the background). This limitation is obviously visible with Tango, great great app but due to the limited PN system and no background operations, its impossible to let the user know there is an incomming call besides a single PN message... Which of course is quite likely to arrive delayed on EU carriers.

Making a usefull skypeapp is very important for MS and they will thus need to do some fundamental platform changes... So it will not come when on Mango, or they will have to develop some native code to get around this limitation and since the hacking and use of native dlls by devs this is also a security thread to the platform. Its a more deeper rooted problem than most people think.

But this is just my own logical thinking. I could be wrong. Anyway I am missing the app terribly.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
What's wrong with the socket API?
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikroland:
Its all coming and its going to be fantastic.

Sent from my Windows Phone Mango Focus using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 General] fleon888:
Am I wrong or does Tango do this? I know they have some extra love from MS, but if they can do it, why not skype?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Marvin_S:
well tango does it the way is described in my post which does NOT work in practice. Because you dont hear you get a call, allyou hear is a standard PN, which can easily get delayed for a couple minutes, certainly here on european carriers. This is the main problem what is the use of a skype app if you dont hear you get a call. I mean I get a ton of PN trough fb and whatsapp, and think I can check it later because its just a message. But with tango (and skype) it actually means an incomming call. There is no destiction between these. So we will need a fundamental platform change, which allows for some extra background agent which can sound a call ringtone... Or something. If this is not there, the skype app will face so much criticism and the same will happen to the platform.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
The skype app will be an MS skype app so I would expect this to work a lot better than the Tango app. I'm 100% sure that the skype app will ring when called.

I'm pretty sure the reason its not out now is the Nokia Lumia 800.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I think they're going to integrate it like messenger. No app will be needed and it will ring like a standard phone call. We just have to wait on a new OS update. The wait continues .
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
I guess Apple came with C&P, Notification Center, and Siri from inception. I guess they have something better than static icons on the desktop already.

I want an Android experience that includes a stable OS with respectable battery life. I guess I will have to wait.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Marvin_S:
Exactly, that was what I was trying to make clear. The current API's just dont cut it for a proper voip app. And this can only be achieved by a fundamental platform change or some native code (but yeah this amount of native code needed will open up the platform for all the hackers). Thus like you stated here I'm afraid we will have to wait.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Albert Kallal:
Why are you saying that the new API mango is not up to this task?

There are currently a number streaming applications that work VERY well in Mango.

The TunedIn radio application is a great example and one that I use a lot. This application streams packets of sound from radio stations. Not only does the application work great, but it ALSO works very well in background mode. So it also streams internet radio in the background while you do other tasks.

In fact even more amazing, is even when streaming radio using this app then the web browser STILL allows you to launch multiple browsers, and EACH OF those browsers are downloading and multi-tasking in the back ground.

So if you press and hold on a link in your browser, choose open in new tab then the instant the new browser tab starts to load, I then press/hold back button to bring up task switching and flick back to the web page I was on. I then read some more and if I find a new link, then I do the above again. In fact I do this all the way down the web page. When I finally get to the bottom of the page, then ALL OF the separate browser sessions that I tossed off to open up WILL NOW be loaded and did so in the background! (this is truly amazing).

I mean what a great way to browse, as it means I never have to wait for web browser page to load, coz I simply go back to the previous page and continue reading!

I should point out that I'm doing this while my streaming radio was playing, and while I'm checking e-mail etc. is all running.

With support in the new mango API for TCP/IP and UDP sockets support, and the fact that we see some GREAT background steaming applications appearing in Mango, then I am VERY MUCH at loss as to why you're making such a claim in public that the current APIs are not up to the task of creating a great Skype application?

I will fully admit prior to the new sockets and API support in Mango, then building a Skype application would most certainly had to be done at the operating system level by Microsoft.

However this is 100% changed with Mango due to the ability of background processing, and socket support.

The addition of sockets support, and the ability of multitasking and background systems running means that we have a platform that is more than adequate for making a great Skype application. In fact these new abilites make this a slam dunk and I see NO need for some os change to accomplish such an application given the multi-tasking and streaming abilites we now have in Mango.

[Windows Phone 7 General] dragonide:
I do totally agree
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
The multitasking in Mango is good for a few things, VOIP isn't one of them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pillsburydoughman:
Ugh why do people keep doing this?

Sockets don't work in the background!. That's why it's useless.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
Don't worry guys it's coming. Microsoft just needs to finish polishing the iPhone app first :D
