Pro and Con- Mostly Pro

I have been using the Ultrafruit on a dual boot hd2 (android cm7 on sd card) from a 16 gb kingston class 2 for about a week or so and I like the rom a lot. It was pretty stable until I did a reg tweak for the sound in HKCU/ControlPanel/Volume/MaxInCallUIVolume default 10, and changed it to 15. After reboot I began having a lot of autoreboots. I changed it back and it kept rebooting but less and less. The volume is still too low.

Is the mango based rom series being phased out for the ICS roms, and are there advantages to ICS over Mango/Ultrafruit?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] rlydiard:
There still is development going on for Mango and our HD2s. It is a known fact that Cotulla and DFT are working on MAGDLR 2.01 for the HD2 and UltraFruit2. I read somewhere that Cotulla prefers working with WP7 rather than Android, so I am sure that there is still much life left for our HD2s and WP7 developments.

It really comes down to personal preferences concerning your question about advantages of ICS or WP7 ROMs by DFT and Cotulla.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] huismeester:
You are absolutely right my friend :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] younut:
Lol ..I think it would come a Update for that rom....

Sry for my bad english
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] rlydiard:
It is "fruitless" to debate whether the next release from Cotulla/DFT for our HD2s is just an update or that new developments require installation of a new ROM. What is not debatable is that MAGDRL 2.01 is coming, and Cotulla himself refers to what is going to be released in terms of a ROM as UltraFruit2.

Sound

Hello, can someone help me? I have sound issue, the sound is so low that i can barely hear something. And in the call volume is that low that i cant hear anything! It's not a problem with the phone, because i can hear everything normal when i'm using an android rom.

Pleas help!? :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] mscholl:
This is my first attempt on WP7. Did all the necessary steps:

Task 29

Install MAGLDR 1.3

​

Services\UseLast24NAND

​

Services\ClearSD MBR

Run DWI.exe as Admin

Problem: Phone gets stuck on DFT-Logo screen...

My phone is a HD2 EU with Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14.

I'm using ksubedi's HD2 Toolkit 4.2.0.1 for Task29 and MAGLDR install.

SD cards: Kingston 8GB class 4, Sandisk 4GB class 4.

Am I missing something?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Superboy58:

Hi!

Did notice that this does not come in many languages...

If or when can i see a Swedish language support?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kovalDN:
ROM can be updated.

Possible necessary will update the Swedish language packages. Take thence.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ToddeSwe:
Nice, is there any advantage in this Rom against the others? From your point of view.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kovalDN:
Better wait DFT UltraFruit 2. DFT UltraFruit - RANDOM REBOOTS.

But in general presently there is and the other ROMs, which work without problems (including on base DFT UltraFruit).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Sneakyghost:
Hello People,

actually i did a post already yesterday but as i got disturbed i forgot to press submit :D

Now i forgot all the Text, am at work right now. But i think there is basically two pieces of feedback i wanted to leave:

1: After reading the whole thread over the past week i am fully aware of the issues mentioned here, so i'd like to say that after a day of use i have not had any reboot. I am still expecting them to begin to happen but up until now it is looking rock solid and really nice.

2: I cannot by any means get Windows Phone Device Manager or Windows Phone Power Tools get to access isolated storage or do anything with the device at all. I have freshly installed all requiered drivers, the Windows Phone SDK 7.1 and it just won't do nothing but crash or hang after connection is established. I have disabled the firewall but it just don't work.

unfortunately this also happens to my Mozart with DFT Freedom ROM on it. So i am rather asking for a general idea where i have to look for such an issue as i am still getting back into the WP7 business after having spent the last half year on Android.

Maybe some kind soul could help me out with pointing me into the right direction? Thanks for not flaming.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kid1988:
1. It might be you're not affected by the issue. I have two HD2's and my main phone is affected with the reboot issue, the second one however isn't. What kind of LEO do you have? TMOUS maybe? branded or unbranded. This might all influence the issue (since the TMobile version has a different digitizer).

2. No clue on the second issue though. But since both phones cause the SDK to hang, it might be a windows or driver issue. You said you reinstalled everything so for the sake of that I'll rule a faulty installation out. Depending on what exactly you want to do with the SDK you might be alble to get your work done with the WMDC plugin by Untrashot (found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23064872). It allows you to most of the WM6.5 tools to access and edit your WP7.5 device. Since this rom is full unlock. It allows you to browse the phone in Explorer and allows you to acces Isolated Storage and such.

XAP can be installed via IE without the need of SDK or USB connection.

If you really need the SDK for developement or similar I'm afraid you'll need someone else to help you out since I have no expirience with that.

p.s. Don't worry about flaming. Your posts was well lettered and patient. We need more users/posts like yours. Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Sneakyghost:
Thanks Mate. Was too early though. Reboots are Happening now.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kid1988:
you can always change the touch driver in the reg. I don't know how exactly. Just search this thread for "Cotulla.dll"

Touch driver change

Yes i know, thank you. I haven't had the time to search back the thread but i had read it. i will link to it in this post again in a sec, makes it easier to find. Just very busy at the moment.

[EDIT]

OK there is one suitable Answer for how to change the touch driver on Post #759

and another one on Post #744 which is enough to answer my question. Some more explanations inbetween. Thanks guys!

[EDIT 2]

Got a HD2 at home with no SD Card reader. It got ripped out by a violent female. I thought that phone is now of little use but then i found out WinMo could still be flashed without a Card (yes after half a year on android i totally forgot how winmo worked). Today i suddenly realized that someone said the Card must be in the phone on first boot or it will never be recogized when setting up WP7. That means card is not required right? Well i flashed this ROM and voilá! there we go. No card and WP7 up and running. 0.00 MB storage left (abut 7,5mb on HD2O's ROM) and no update, no sync, nothing possible because of too little space. Pity. But it does run...

Cotulla, do you mind doing a tiny small ROM with nothing in it but the most basic features? :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kid1988:
I think WinPho uses a lot more storage space than the average adroid rom, furthermore, it's harder or maybe even impossible to remove parts of the OS without stopping it to function. Maybe you could scoop up a 4gb SD card somewhere. They sale at about 5euro. 2gb should be about half that.

You can try to remove apps that are preinstalled and reduce other contents (no contacts, no images, no sync accounts etc) to reduce size. but I wouldn't think you can shave enough off the rom to allow updates without SD.

EDIT

Oh I totally misread your post about SD card slot.

Microsoft has said that it is issuing "tough, but fair" hardware requirements to manufacturers.

All Windows Phone devices, at minimum, must include the following:

Minimum Windows Phone device requirements

ARM v7 "Cortex/Scorpion" – Snapdragon QSD8X50, MSM7X30, and MSM8X55

DirectX9 rendering-capable GPU

256MB of RAM with at least 4GB of Flash memory

When the next spring ultrafruit coming out?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] rlydiard:
It is impossible to predict when MAGDRL 2.01 and UltraFurit2 will be released by Cotulla and the Dark Forces Team (DFT), and perhaps not too wise to even ask.

It must be remembered that Cotulla and all members of DFT do this marvelous work that they release on XDA-Developers as a hobby, not as their money-making jobs. They spend their own money to buy many devices to work on, and they do work on many more devices than just our coveted Leos.

It is best to just sit back and wait for the release of MAGDRL 2.01 and UntraFruit2 without asking any deadlines, as this can tend to be an irritant to people who do so much for us for free. Of course going to the profile of Cotulla or the members of DFT on XDA-Developers and donating is one way to show appreciation for the work these people do.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Cotulla:
Hello people,

yes, I am working under new ROM which will replace UltraFruit.

It seems impossible to fix UltraFruit main issue - random reboots - without MAGLDR update. So I decide to continue development of new version instead of fixing the old one :(

ROM is planned to be on 8773 build. Seems will be two separate roms with two sets of the languages to increase free size space.

I will appreciate help from somebody, who can collect issue of UltraFruit into one clear list to be it more clear/easy to fix.

About MAGLDR - I am currently a bit stuck on thinking under method how partition SD card for different OS. I want make it flexible for different OS which runs on our LEO :)

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
It seems you have had trouble installing WP7 before, I think you need to flash stock wm6.5 first (which installs a radio), then flash magldr 1.13, then enable last 24mb RAM then flash the rom.

I think the problem was that you did task29 which erased your hardware radio. I might be wrong though:)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SoonHD2:
yes i have and all have just said to use last 24mb and stuff gonna try with wm6.5 and see how it goes. Do i need to use: Clear MBR?

I don't think it will hurt so do it. Although it does not mention mbr in first post.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SoonHD2:
Yes i know , but i have read that it prevents SD from being Locked so it can be formatted with any software... And its now flashing again any suggestions if it fails again.?

What i did: Multicolor screen --- Flashed 6.5WM --- power off ---- again multicolor screen ---- installed Magloader v1.13 --- and use last 24mb and clear MBR and then USB flasher and started flashing wp7 again...

ps. It failed again! : /
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
oh.

I know that when installing yuki/xbmod rom, the advice was to install wm 6.5 and let it boot fully. I have always installed it, then set it up, then it installs something and is ready to use. Perhaps this is where the problem is. Sorry I should have mentioned this before.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SoonHD2:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SoonHD2:
I know : P any ideas what to do now?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
Apart from installing wm6.5 first and letting it boot fully before flashing magldr, no.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SoonHD2:
What rom should i use? Latest WM6.5 with 2.15.50.14 radio or some 1.66 (?) rom?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Robbie P:
The first is good but if you have Tmobile 1024, you may brick your phone. Check on htc website, enter imei number and you should get a link to compatible wm6.5.

@SoonHD2 and Robbie P

Sorry if i missed anything but where exactly does your flash fail?

What does not work?

I read a few pages back but i think i didn't see any detailed description of where your flash fails. I might have overseen it though.

I might be able to point out a few things if you wouldn't mind to let me know what exactly goes wrong. There is various possible reasons for a flash fail. Since you managed to flash magloader i don't think its from your PC (unless you have installed some HTC Sync drivers, which don't work right with the DWI Flasher from Cotulla. They work for nearly all RUU based flashes etc but not for the DWI.exe and not for MTTY).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Cotulla:
ok thanks for help.

Actually RUU & MAGLDR are using same driver which comes from ActiveSync.

Dunno about HTC sync.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Sneakyghost:
I use 3 sets of drivers for my flashings and i have not yet fully determined which ones work for what exactly.

Can you shed some light on this issue?

Otherwise i might try to set up a package with different sets of drivers for different purposes, yet i am very limited with my time and since i am no dev with skills in that matter it takes me long to find out all that.

[EDIT]

Made a mistake. DWI.exe works from Magloader. It always works with the Active Sync drivers. Of course. I was on about the Bootloader Flashes. I have 3 different Driver-Versions for the Flasher Mode of Magloader too. But only the original, signed driver works. If i set my Win 7 to testmode and run the other self-signed drivers, none of them lets the DWI.exe communicate. I just now tested that.

I think i had them once for getting MTTY to work. Old remains in my System.

For flashing stuff from TriColor or just running MTTY, there is different drivers for different purposes. The Eugenia Signed Drivers work best for MTTY, while for the RUU flashes a different driver works better ( i am unsure but i think the RUU does not work at all on the Eugenia drivers??). i think that'd be the one that also works for Magloader, but i don't understand, why the same driver can work for USB Flasher Mode in Magloader and in TriColor Screen as the one in TriColor Screen needs to directly address the Qualcomm Chip whereas the one for USB Flasher mode is an Actice Sync driver, isn't it?

I also just now checked on the HTC Sync driver but i must have mixed up something as that one only shows up once the HD2 has booted into Android. That one doesn't come up with TriColor Screen or USB Flasher mode in Magloader.

Sorry for the confusion. Actually i only wanted to help that one guy with a flash fail because i thought he might have the wrong drivers installed and now i begin to realize that i really don't know much about the drivers and need to figure out what's the business here myself.
