[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
Take out battery, plug chopped up USB cable into wall charger, use fingers to hold red to + black to -, count to twenty, battery in phone, phone into bootloader, real charger cable into phone and wall charger, leave 10 mins, reboot into android. (Can charge all the way in bootloader, but it seems slower than when android is running.)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
By 'tutorials on how to do this' I basically meant your posts ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jwchips:
As previously said if you're using magldr you need to be booted into Android before the phone will charge. You can try to warm the battery up in your hands to squeeze the last bit of power out of it to boot up. Or there are standalone hd2 battery charges you can buy from eBay that charge your battery outside of the phone, they're pretty cheap.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Petricanu:
As Samuel said you can charge phone in bootloader. Just try!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Target0001:
Had to buy external charger

item # M00366 this charger was cheap has led's that change from red to blue as the battery charges and has a usb port so you can charge a battery in phone at the same time.

I'd been alternating tween an extended battery and the original when my HD2 started discharging while plugged in. same batteries and nearly a year of typhoon's excellent ROM progression then wham dead batteries....
[HTC Sensation] Shatterv2:
Ive been seeing pictures of peoples screen where they have the on-screen home and back buttons. How can I get this? :o
[HTC Sensation] epsiblivion:
it wouldn't really be useful for sensation users. the sensation already has software buttons available. having onscreen buttons is a waste of screen real estate. I'm sure that devs can find a way to implement it or enable it for sensation roms but it wouldn't be particularly useful like I said. why have 2 buttons that do the same thing? the screenshots you saw might actually be from a galaxy nexus or shopped
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
Actually this hack exists on other devices like the nexus s. Don't know anything more about it though
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Digitalagent:
My nook tablet was opening apps like Facebook and google search and typing unusual letters in the search and status boxes. Anyone seen anything like this? It honestly seemed like the device was being controlled remotely. I wasn't even touching the device and it was trying to type letters. My device has been rooted for about two weeks. I've not seen anything like this until tonight.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bobcat001:
What was your battery charge? There are reports of the touchscreen acting weird when the battery is low.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] albertwertz:
yea, sounds more like a glitch in the touch screen. this happened on my phone. I would warranty it. Make sure you unroot first
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] travisn000:
It sounds like a defective unit... I have a Droid X that does the same thing; started happening about a month or two out of warranty. I've factory reset / SBF'd it a million times and it still happens, rooted or not.

For me, it seems to happen more frequently when the screen is dirty (but also happens when perfectly clean), and especially bad if I am wearing clothing that generates static electricity (fleece and other synthetics). Makes me wonder if the screen isn't grounded properly.. the phone has a lot more flex in the chasis than it should and sometimes flexing it in just the right way will make the problem stop.

:confused:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Digitalagent:
Thanks

Thanks much for the replies. The battery was very low and I was sitting in a chair that could generate static electricity. Also noticed little bits of dog hair caught between the case and the screen. Not sure I'm going to return the unit just yet. It could have been a fluke. The only time I've seen a machine act like that is when someone controls a server at work remotely. It was really strange and seemed like a program was attempting to type on its own.

One other caveat is that I had installed Aurora on the tablet earlier in the night. It's a browser by Mozilla in development. It was running really sweet so I don't think that had anything to do with it. I did notice that the tablet was locking up on a couple pages and really sluggish for a bit while using the default browser. It then responded fine until the ghost took over.

One other question if anyone is still listening: if this happened to you did the keyboard come up? It didn't appear when the letters were being typed in my case.

I was thinking a cover and possibly a shield may be in order. I've got a year, so it if happens again even one time I'm going to return the unit- after unrooting of course.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] macrossmerrell:
My Nook Color will do this as well when it has been zapped by static electricity and when there are a bunch of finger prints all over the screen (usually when the finger oil gets built up around the edges of the screen it starts).

A good wipe down with a microfiber cloth (with the screen off) fixes it for me. Granted this is Nook Color and not my Nook Touch we're talking about, but I figure the behavior could be similar.

Good luck!

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] zaptoons:
Weird, I could swear there was a thread about this, but now I can't find it for the life of me.

Anyway, it's a known issue- no need to panic and return the NT.

When the battery gets critically low, sometimes the NT will seem to have a mind of it's own and everything you describe starts happening. Apps open themselves, random text types itself, touchscreen completely unresponsive, etc.

I've seen exactly the same thing, and also at first wondered if it was a remote hack. Then I noticed the pattern that it's only during extreme power lows.

Just recharge to at least a minimal level and there's no problem.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bcvictory:
Same thing happens to me but I only switch the screen off and on and then it goes away.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dhkr234:
As has been mentioned, charge it, clean the screen, wash your hands. This should take care of the "autogibberish". As far as opening software... do you mean that it is opening foreground applications? Or that software will just load in the background? If the latter, this is NORMAL behavior of Android -- it will load software into memory so that it is instantly available when you try to run the software. If the former, probably related to the dirty screen.

I do NOT believe that this is a hardware defect. It rather is a side-effect of a LARGE touch surface. The bigger the touch surface, the more likely it is to be subject to random static charges.

[Defy General] maymyk:
I have been researching around on old and official threads of CM7, but still couldn't solve my problem. I really hope the forum moderators do not scold me opening a new thread asking for help on development section.

My device: Defy+ MB526

ROM: CM7.2.0-RC0-Defy-KANG (built 2 Jan 2012)

Kernel: 2.6.32.9

Everything works perfectly, and way much better and smoother than the stock GB rom.

Problem: Charging stops at 80%. I have been searching around for a workaround or patch, but nothing found so far.

Please help....
[Defy General] lycheejet:
Yes, I find this issue when HF5X in use. BF5X could be full-charged however.

Perhaps it related the different nominal voltage.
[Defy General] maymyk:
Do you mind to show or guide me to the thread/step to change to 'Bf5X'? I am a new user of android.

Thanks.
[Defy General] hackergnome:
BF5X is defy battery!!
[Defy General] maymyk:
Opsss, that's the dumb side of me that spoke....i am sorry. So is there anything I can do to fix the problem above?
[Defy General] mikrom.cz:
Yes, this is last thing what I want to fix. Battery calibration, wiping battery stats, replacing battd from latest builds, nothing fix this.

If my defy eat about 1% after 2-3hours, it will be great to have 100% of battery.
[Defy General] idsclipart:
I've the same problem on my Defy+ with WajkUIU rom.

It stoped around 82%, and I've tried to wipe batt stats in recovery, but it didn't help.

I thought that I've solved it when I did factory/data wipe becouse it gone straigt to 100% with 4196mV, but after I've recharged my phone next day it stoped at 87%.

I'll now try to do the factory/data wipe again at 87% and do the battery calibration right after.
[Defy General] Shark107:
same here guys, I guess there's nothing to do, only in CM9 the defy+ charges fully, so we have to wait until it's operative
[Defy General] maymyk:
Have you tried CM9? I am planning to try soon. Any comment, is it suitable to be our main/daily ROM at the moment?
[Defy General] zakoo2:
this is the 'hard' calibration: let you battery drain fully, till it switches off. let it remain switched off, plug in your wall charger, and let it charge till it sais 100% (phone is still switched off). pull your battery (leave the charger plugged in), wait till it displays a question mark, put your battery back in, and let it charge to 100% again, thats it.
[Defy General] Shark107:
1) No I didn't, from what I read it is not recommended to use it as primary OS, it's still very experimental and camera is not working

2) Is it just about the percentage, or does it charge over 4100mV as well? Because if, as I think, it's just about showing 100%, but not really charging the bigger Defy+ battery, I'll just stick the way it is now, it's not healthy for the battery to leave it to fully die anyway
[Defy General] prasannavl:
I would just like to clear a misunderstanding I've been seeing in more than just one thread.

The full charge of a Defy+ battery is around 4310 mV.

It is not around 4150 mV. My CM7.2 Nightly replaced with the latest battd from stock build charges perfectly till 100%. But its voltage level is 4160 mV, which is NOT 100%.

Please monitor the voltages for the correct reading, not just the percentages.
[Defy General] mikrom.cz:
okay, my maximum is 4176mV and 84%. nothing more.

battery monitor widget see battery capacity 1650mAh, which is plus minus correct :)

edit: cm72-111213.. (with changed camera.apk, overlay.omap3.so from [] AL [] and battd from cm72-111223
[Defy General] maymyk:
Same like me. Do not know how to get it until 4350mV as expected from Defy+
[Defy General] freerida:
Same problem when using different miui roms meant for the mb525 and not the defy+. It's really annoying because these roms are awesome, but the battery is crap. Please help us someone!
[Defy General] maymyk:
Here they screen shot of my Defy+
[Defy General] mikrom.cz:
What yesterday nightly? Tried someone?
[Defy General] ezantera:
You really try this or...?
[Defy General] idsclipart:
I've tried everything but I only got 100% after factory reset and it was on 4190mV. After calibration, on next recharge it only charged up to 81% 4156mV. I'm done with this rom and I'm now back to stock 2.3.6 rom.
[Defy General] maymyk:
For me, although with this battery bug, this ROM is way much better and smoother than the stock. I have been using CM rom back from the old days (on different brand of handphones), and hardly can replace it. With so many power sources around, I can live with this 80% bug.

Maybe this is a bless in disguise? Read here for battery care tips:

Yesterday i've killed my defy, and about 2am bring to life.

But, i think that latest CM7 nightly for defy+ from january charging battery to 100%!

I have zip with correct camera app and motorola boot animation, i can upload it.

Screenshot: http://db.tt/rCpTZVg0

Edit: videos are okay, but camera is upside Down. Default cam, camera 360 too.

Edit2: i just update to latest: cm72-120112.2249-NIGHTLY-Defy+.zip without any modifications. battery has 95% and still charging, this is great. videos are okay, this is nice. camera picture is stil upside down, even if i use another camera app (Camera360).
[Defy General] Shark107:
Great!

Have you tried changing camera and overlay like in that other 3d? I did it with my december nightly and camera is perfect
[Defy General] mikrom.cz:
I've changed these two files in 9th January, but it didn't work. Camera was upside down. Exactly same like now, when I use untouched build.

Alright guys, I'm uploading everything you need to have CM7.2 with fully charging defy+ battery and 100% camera working ( no inverted pic, working selective touch to focus like no other app on the market ), it'll take me approx an hour, so anyone interested should start to backup and be ready to flash xD

click me like there's no tomorrow :D
[Defy General] mikrom.cz:
hi, i have strange problem. after I install 9. Jan nightly, 84%battery issue was fix, thats ok, couple days after i update to 12. Jan nightly. everything works fine (except camera) and battery charging to 100%.

BUT. few days ago battery issue comes back! and now its charging again only to 85%.

havy you any idea what can I wipe? i wipe battery stats in recovery - no change. i delete cc_data and cc_data_old files in \data\battd - no change. any idea?
[Defy General] karinkato:
80% charging solution

in my opinion simply flash ur phone again without wiping any thing what ever rom u want but before flashing again make ur mobile charging till 100% even if it shows full at 80% then make it charge upto 100%.

then simply flash the ur rom again without wiping any thing.

hope this will work for u all.

[Windows Phone 7 General] jubeh:
I was explaining to a guy at work why the HD2 is such a great phone and the topic of WP7 came up.

I explained to him that I was about to abandon Android and switch over to a WP7 device because the market has become flooded with Android devices and "devvin" is all over the place without a concise (except for CM 7 and MIUI) back-end. WP7 development, on the other hand, seems to be pretty stable because there are so few devices running it.

Anyway. He asked if there were any other devices to which WP 7 had been ported and I was at a loss. Other than the (around 20 according to Wikipedia) few devices that officially run WP7, the HD2, as far as I know, is the only device that's capable of unofficially running WP7. Is this right? Are any other devices running WP7 unofficially?

If not, honestly, then that makes me want to hold on to my HD2 even tighter than before. It's such an amazing piece of hardware and still very able to keep up with modern phones 2 years after it's release.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pantsaregood:
HTC HD2 is getting pretty close to running WP7 as well as an HD7.

Toshiba TG01 has some WP7 ROMs available, but their functionality is quite limited at the moment.

Im trying to download a rom so I can flash it to my wifes phone. I have the zipfolder on my laptop but for some reason when I put it on the SD card it doesn't show when I go into recovery. I flashed my phone by downloading the link straight to my phone. Im trying on hers but I keep getting download failed content is not supported on the phone. I even tried to download just a pic online and the download failed. Am I missing a setting on the phone or what?

Make sure you're putting it on the internal SD. Not sure that you can access the external in recovery.

As for the download failed, try using a different browser such as dolphin browser HD. I used to run into similar problems downloading stuff with the stock browser, but never with dolphin.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] guitarman16:
Thanks for the reply. I just tried dolphin-browser and download failed due to not enough memory. The phone was factory reset just before so all the SD cards and internal storage are fresh. And when I tried from the computer I pit it in the space that pops up when I select to view the phones files. External SD is listed so I know it not going on there. I could work around that like I did on my phone if I could figure out why hers won't download anything (besides market apps, it downloads them fine) its aggravating to say the least.

Should I have to rename the zip or just leave it as shorticut on the end of it?

E* Nm I'm a bonehead. I was sending the zip to desktop and it was making it a shortcut. I finally woke the hell up and moved it straight from the folder to the SD. Trial and error I guess. Thanks for your patience.

So I've been using this phone for a while and use it daily on my commute to work with the car dock to listen to music. I can't help but notice that the music seems to skip more than I think it should. It's a really small thing but it just has really started to annoy me.

I'm rooted but running stock rom and use Google music to play my music. From what I've experienced the device acts like the music service doesn't have a high enough priority when playing and some other running service interrupts it for just long enough to cause a skip. Anyone else experiencing this or have any ideas for a tweak that might fix this issue?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kevets:
I use Google Music daily and haven't seen that problem yet, so it probably isn't an inherent problem.

Need more details, like are you using Bluetooth, using wifi, do you have any rogue apps that may be taxing your system?

Maybe do a speed test when you get a skip just to see if it may be a bandwidth problem.
[Motorola Photon 4G] magui43212:
I've noticed the google music app has a tendency to think a song is way shorter than it actually is and skips to the next too early. Really hard bug to get rid of once it starts.
[Motorola Photon 4G] GraphicDemon:
I use PlayerPro an it skips also never did it on my droid x....
[Motorola Photon 4G] schale01:
Try clearing your music cache. It just didn't get the while song cached.

Maybe it skips cause data where you're at blows like my area?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ScottieRotten:
Have you tried changing your proxy settings in ##data# ? Should help with the streaming.
[Motorola Photon 4G] schale01:
I have no issues with data streaming, the problem occurs even after fully cached. As I said I believe the issue resides in some sort of priority issue. Is out possible too change the base priority of the app our make some other memory our system tweak that may give a better result?

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Anytime you are flashing a new rom, you need to wipe the previous data otherwise you'll have conflicts galore. It's a pain, but if you back up well, you can restore pretty fast.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileweasel:
I know where the op is going with this. All the methods of rooting I have found so far have you unlocking and flashing CWM. Doing this will wipe everything. If you could root first, things would be a little easier.
