I just got HD2 Tmous from ebay for parts to fix another that I sliced and cut the LCD flex cable. The phone is in great condition and after I put in the battery from my old phone it booted up and stuck on stick together screen. I booted up to the bootloader tri-color screen and it displayed the following:

PB8112 HX-B3

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

0x05

CotullaHSPL 0x05

After I used the USB cable to connect to my PC running Windows 7, the Serial at the bottom changed to USB. I downloaded Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 and installed and run it. The WMDC said USB not connected. I found the thread "Stuck on Stick Together Screen" with similar problem and was solved by re-stocking the ROM from Tmous. I downloaded it but renaming from exe to zip did not work in order to extract the LEOIMG.nbh. I found another thread "[TUT] Flash your ROM / Radio via microSD" and downloaded it. I copied the ROM to my FAT32 1GB SD card, inserted it in the phoned, booted it into the bootloader, and flashed it. It is now stuck at 10% for more than an hour.

LEOIMG.nbh

RADIO_V2 -

RCUST -

BOOTLOADER -

SPLASH1 -

OS

CONFIGDATA. -

Update in Progress...

(progress bar stuck at about 10%)

I forgot to verify that the ROM is for HD2 Tmous and don't know what it is - the thread did not mention it.

What should I do now?

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] GuestK00123:
The part, where you stuck at 10% is the part, where it flashes the Radio Image. I stuck at it, when i choose the wrong ROM. Do you know, which ROM was the original one for your phone? Look it up on the internet and try it with it.

I saw, you wanted to extract the .NBH file. Try it with the Software "WinRAR". When you installed it, go to your RUU-Extractor file, right-click it and choose the point "Open in Winrar..." or sth like that.

I hope, that was a little help :)
[HD2 General] mvsd:
Thanks,

I got it from ebay so i don't know its history. After more than 3 hours stuck at 10% and found out from other thread the ROM from Tmous was not a normal zip file that can be viewed directly from Windows Explorer, I used WinRar to extract the NBH file and pulled the battery out and put back in. The phone was rebooted and got the triangle failure symbol; I pulled the battery out and put back in and booted into the bootloader - it displayed these additional info: RUUNBH at top right and Upgrade ROM code error Please try again at the center. Also, the serial did not change to USB anymore.

(omitted some steps) I flashed the leoimg.nbh file downloaded from Tmous and the same problem happened.

Since ActiveSync does not connect to the phone and the bootloader does not function properly, any utility required ActiveSync and flashing with properly function bootloader will not work. I think there is no way for me to flash the Radio ROM, right? Is there any utility or mode that will tell me which version of Radio currently in the phone?

I am thinking of trying to flash the same HSPL and MAGLDR and see what happens after reading some more threads.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
so it doesnt say 'fail' next to anything on the blue writing/grey background screen when you flash from sd card? like next to RADIO_V2 -? because it sounds like a pretty standard stuck radio (or stuck spl, tell me, did teh spl line change from your first post? (("(omitted some steps)" dont ommit anything, full detail is the only way to get accurate answers.))

Mostly this never gets fixed without a jtag, but sometimes trying all teh various roms for that particular phone (you sure its a tmous? if it is, DO NOT flash anything you didn't get from the tmous/htc website,,, if it doesnt work and you get frustrated after 100 attempts, and its late at night, dont think "oh ill just try a non tmous one, just to see" cos it will die.)

Things to read up on and try are the freezer trick, chill the phone for a while, then quickly try an sd flash (forget about usb flashing, if you are gonna fix it, its most likely sd that will do it),, trying various tmous stock roms (if you go in the tmous stock roms thread, DO NOT flash the first one in the list, , its not a real tmous rom and will brick you,, teh second and third would also be best avoided, with the manufacturing spl's, because going back to normal stock is tricky, , not impossible, but a pain none the less),, also have a play with hspl3 or 4, see if you can change the spl, because sometimes its the spl thats stuck, and not the radio (however sticking at 10% and not seeing anything next to RADIO_V2 - makes it almost certainly the radio,)
[HD2 General] mvsd:
Nothing - no additional info besides the progress bar stuck at 10% described in 1st post and the SPL line did not change. I think the phone now has the exact info except there is nothing where serial was displayed before (yellow text info on red background) as my first post.

Omitted some steps: these are just steps to copy the ROM downloaded from Tmous website to the sd card for flashing (T-Mobile_HD2_MR_software_3.14.531.1.exe).

Yes, it's a Tmous. The void sticker is still there and the touch screen has the T-Mobile logo.

I knew that I had to flash Tmous ROM because HD2 Tmous has 1GB of ROM instead of the normal 512MB.

Unfortunately, most of shipped ROM links are broken. I wanted to try the 2.10.x.

Thank you for your help.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Hi all,

I am from India and I want a Asia.retail ROM to flash. There are tons of ROMs and none of them say India...or Asia.

Its OK if its not the latest build but has to be a of the ICS kernel and preferably not a leak...

Any help?? Thanx!

Sent from my RaZr NeXus.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Anyone?

just point me the link..plz..
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] maqsur:
Just want to share some battery life shots for others to use to consider when choosing a new phone.

Screen set to autobright, WiFi off (when screen off), data off.

Basically used for tapatalk and browser mainly. Short phone calls and texts.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] polarimetric:
Already put this in the other thread but I figure it belongs here as well. Average signal strength -80 dBm, 2.5 hours screen on time, WiFi all day.

Also, on a related note, this phone charges unbelievably quickly. I'm seriously in awe of how fast the battery fills up. I've seen charging this quick on a rooted device with a fast charge kernel but NEVER on a stock device. I'm easily gaining 1% per minute of charging if not more.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Skidoo03:
What'd you guys use to take a screenshot with, since mine isn't rooted yet I can't use the normal apps but here is mine with light to majority of the time usage, on wifi 95% of the day, screen brightness about 25%, texting all day, a couple calls, and Drag Racing Bike Edition a bit, then the normal Facebook and Twitter checks. It's at 19% now after messing with it for a few minutes. :good:
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] polarimetric:
Screenshot support is now native in Ice Cream Sandwich without root. Take a screenshot by holding Power and Volume Up simultaneously.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] cambunch:
I get terrible signal at work, 4g is reporting -110db, -85db on 3g, and am very far from the WiFi router. Auto brightness is on too.

Still considerably better than my other phones.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dbrits:
I spent yesterday at Catalina. I left with a full charge at 9 am and apart from a brief 15 minute charge, I plugged in my phone at 10:30 pm with 10% remaining. The signal on the island is very spotty, constantly switching from 1x to 3G to no signal at all. I took 50+ photos with my phone and uploaded 5 to Facebook; I made a handful of calls and sent/received more texts than I expected for a day away from life, lol. However, there was a combined total of two hours of travel time (tram/plane) when I switched to airplane mode because I knew I wouldn't be able to get signal. I was pleasantly surprised that the phone didn't die on me earlier in the day. I think I'll buy an extra battery and keep it in my bag for a bit of extra security,but overall, I am impressed.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] ijustwantmydock:
So what I'm getting from this is battery is pretty good right? Is there any overheating at all I'm looking to replace my rezound because of I can't get one that doesn't hit over 125 regularly.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
I am in hopes this phone will produce decent batt life. better than the rezound anyway.

---------- Post added at 07:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

I just got it today but overheat was a big reason i dropped my rez, ill keep an eye on it and let u know, so far it seems more like my inc2.

i dont play games or anything tho, so i can only say from normal use, and the rez would overheat for that.

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------

damn with all that, the ol inc4g seems to be looking pretty solid!

im loving it so far!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dunderball:
On the Incredible and other HTC phones, it should be hold down power button, then hit the home key. Pretty nice and easy, it's great.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mthornto88:
So far yes. I have had mine since Thursday. I came from a Rezound as well. No overheating at all. The phone doesn't even get warm. I am at 60% after taking it off the charger at 9am. The battery blows the Rezound's battery away. I finally have a phone back.

You won't regret getting one of these. The size is smaller but that's fine with me.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jonno95:
forgot to take a screen shot but my first full day i go 17.5 hours. 0 time on wifi, 2 hours airplane mode, the rest on 4g. with lots of calls, texting, and setting up. 4 email accounts (1 exchange, 1 gmail and 2 yahoo), beweather autoupdate to every 3 hours, nova for my launcher, screen auto brightness, and nothing frozen. It never felt warm. It went from 0 to fully charged in about 2 hours, and it did feel warm then, but i had just done the htc unlock so i was resetting everything up. By far the best battery life i've had on an android phone so far.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tm1618:
How much screen on time you forgot that. Most important part!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
Really?

better than the inc2..?

now that would be awesome!

It's too soon for me to say how my batt is, but it's better than the rezound and doesnt overheat so im happy.

plus it isnt a brick and is the PERFECT size.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] maqsur:
Just an update on battery. Doing excellent.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] *Madmoose*:
Yeah, thats about what I'm seeing...the battery life on this thing is amazing...even flashing test roms etc...this thing lasts forever.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] rpc180:
Battery

Pretty satisfied with the battery life for the casual usage I had today. Yesterday I took it on a 20 mile bike ride with streaming radio running. That sucked down 20-30% in about 2 hours but I pretty much expected that.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] con247:
an hour and 20 minutes @ 70% remaining is excellent. With the Rezound or Nexus I would be down to about 40% probably at that point.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
yea dude this is a huge improvement over the rezound battery, life and overheat wise.

pretty much every aspect except S-OFF

patience brings good things though.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] maqsur:
Same charge just more time gone by. I think this phone is a keeper.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] ragnarokxg:
This phone Rocks

I have had this phone for almost a week now and the battery is pretty awesome. I went to a whole day metal festival and was taking pictures of the bands as well as my stepson and the battery lasted the whole concert. Then the last few days have been good with a couple hours streaming each day and on 4G the whole time. I am amazed to be getting over 12 hours with this phone with it being stock and normal usage for me.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] ragnarokxg:
I am attaching a screenshot of todays usage.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jonno95:
sorry, i forgot to check my screen time....

Here are some screen prints from my 3rd day (also after htc dev unlock) 7% battery left, 20.5 hours, 1 hour talk time, 1:20 screen time, 4g entire time, 0 wifi
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] pumah350:
First battery cycles

These are my first and second full battery cycles. All 4G the entire time...the first day w/ 13+ hrs I was using my Hotspot tethered to my GTab 10.1 for 4 hrs! I had about 45 min of calls...and 4 hrs easy screen time and my screen was set to 1/3 brightness. And the second cycle w/ 12 hrs, I had more calls and 4.5+ hrs screen time! This inc4 is on steroids :laugh:
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
Man this is def working out pretty nice, much better than my Rezound was

Love this phone!

20months I might actually make it this time!

unless they decide to stop making phones into tablets and stick to a new 4.3 phone in December I'll give my bro this phone and use his upgrade ;)
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] pumah350:
Hey that's my plan too! 'cept I was gonna give the inc4 to the gf and get the next beast by HTC and hoping its not, yea, a huge thing. But if she not nice to me I'm just gonna keep it :p
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
I've noticed this morning that the dialer is using alot of battery compared to other stuff for some reason.

I was at full charge yesterday, restarted the phone and took it off the charger. I have made zero calls and don't think I've even opened the dialer.

Its at 62% after 19hrs.

Dialer 39%

Screen 20%

Standby 17%

Idle 15%

OS 4%
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
5 hours screen on time!

hell yea!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
I try pressing power and vol up but nothing seems to happen other than getting the volume popup.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] cambunch:
That's because its volume down and power. Make sure you hold them for a second :beer:
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] canpitt27:
Also Power & Home button seems to work. Hold power, tap home, release power.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
Thanks it worked.

Lasted about 2days with almost no use. I had a 15min dropbox upload though.

I tried a similar test with my orig inc when I first got it and got 3days out of it with no use.

Maybe that dropbox upload ate up 1/3?

For some reason dialer is showing as taking up most of my power usage eventhough it shows as active for a few minutes only. And I didnt even make any calls.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] polarimetric:
Try disabling assisted dialing in the Call settings.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
Thanks, I'll try that although I'm not sure what it actually does

This also worked, although then my phone rebooted
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] canpitt27:
I'm curious also, what does this do?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] polarimetric:
Assisted dialing is a feature included on many global-ready phones that automates country calling codes based on a reference country. It's intended to help users that travel or place international calls frequently. However, if you use your phone primarily within the United States (which most people do), you can disable this feature without missing anything. I have seen this feature tax the battery on a variety of other devices (for one, the Incredible 2), which is unfortunate, since it is unnecessary for most users (and yet, for some inexplicable reason, it is enabled by default). Disabling it *should* reduce your Dialer battery usage.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mark9876:
battery life has been excellent so far for me. I was worried 4g would drain the battery but i'm easily able to make it through a whole day on a charge with moderate use in a building with spotty signal.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] devinhfox:
I have trouble getting through a day. Sometimes I think there might be a runaway process because battery level will drop sharply when I'm not even using it.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] cambunch:
Do you have Best WiFi Performance turned on?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] devinhfox:
I don't know. Why?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] cambunch:
It kills battery life if you do. Open your WiFi settings > Menu > Advanced
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
my battery life is great, but i've found that if you're in a low signal area, it's not so great, for some reason, i think the phone is constantly searching for signal eating up battery.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dodgerinNH:
I realized this about a week ago, and it is absolutely true. I was having terrible battery life- MUCH worse than my OG Incredible. But once I changed that setting the battery life improved so much that it's now the best battery life I've ever had.

BTW I would like to help donate to the cause of getting S-off on this device, but I can't really ask questions over on the Development threads due to lack of posts. If someone can PM me and let me know the scoop?

Will these efforts be useful for someone who missed unlocking the bootloader by two days?

TIA, Don
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] devinhfox:
I'm not even on WiFi though.any other ideas?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
bad signal iwll kill just about EVERY phones batt.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:

Number one fastest battery killer. If you are in a known bad spot, put into airplane mode to save battery until you're our of the area. I had to do this today - was at a relative's house most of today and they have next to no signal there.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
Also, if available, goto wifi.

Actually, I think wifi uses less power than 4g but it depends how good your 4g signal is and how bad your wifi is
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] AshtonTS:
Afaik, wifi almost always uses less battery than 4G, on my gnex, wifi uses less battery than even 3G
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] pumah350:
I go in a low signal quite often, and when I do, "LTE on/off" app does the trick. If I have to go into 1X, then I just drop the radio to CDMA ONLY, so it will lock it in 1X and not try to find any other signal. When I go into a better area (3G), then I drop the radio to CDMA auto (PRL), so it stays locked at 3G. This has been a life saver for me because I go into low signal area often and being able to control the radios like this is essential to keep decent battery life.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
Well, at work I have no 4g but I do have a strong 3g signal and I notice no diff in battery. I think its when the phone is in that weird area where it keeps trying to switch between 3g and 4g where you get drained. same for 3g and 1x.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] canpitt27:
Just curious, is this the same as turning "mobile" on and off?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] devinhfox:
No.mobile data on/off simply cuts off data connection. There is a lower level control to actually force lte off and 3g(evdo) off if necessary.

I think that's what he's referring to here.

If anyone has used this let us know how well it works
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tk1o48:
Insane. How'd you get to 5!?

I have trouble even getting to 4 hrs of screen time with WiFi on all day.

Regardless, hands down best battery life for stock I've ever experienced
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] HypostaticOnion:
Custom ROM I'm sure.

Sent from my HTC Incredible 2
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] scars641:
As a light to medium user, this is the best battery on a smart phone that I've ever experienced.

I originally bought the LG Lucid because I wanted a small screen phone, but switched to this after three days. I take it off the charger at 8:00 am every morning and it is at 20-30% when I get home at 12:00 am. Typical usage during the day is...

30 minutes of spotify

1 hour of phone talk time.

2 hours of Internet browsing spread out throughout the day

20-30 text messages

1 or 2 app downloads

10-15 minutes of YouTube

Stock ROM, no root, Verizon Apps disabled. Sense launcher with only 3 widgets.

I do manually switch to 3G at work do to poor 4g signals. 4g everywhere else though.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
My Battery Life

So, I decided to drain my battery down and post in here to give you guys an idea of what kind of life my phone has.

First off, I rarely ever use my data package. I'm always near Wi-fi, so I don't need it unless I'm driving. Secondly, I'd like to break down my usages into approximately how much I'm using it.

Wifi: All the time I'm at work or home and awake, basically.

Voice Calls: About 30 minutes during this time period

Screen-on: As you'll see in the picture, over 5 hours.

Dead Trigger: A pretty fun zombie game which would be more fun if they'd give me more damn gold. Over an hour, which is probably where a significant portion of my battery and screen-on time went.

Text messages: I send and receive a few hundred messages a day, so a significant portion of my screen-on time came from this.

Music: I probably spent between 1 hour and 1.5 hours listening to music.

I took my detailed battery picture first, and it told me I had 4% battery left. The phone then proceeded to cut off, and I had to charge it before I could turn it back on and take the other two pictures, that's why there's a 15 minute difference in battery usage. Since it was charging with the screen off until seconds before I took the picture, the numbers are still pretty accurate, with the exception of the 15 minutes, which I don't understand how it could have added that much since I stuck it on the charger right after it died.

Anyway, these numbers are much better than my original Dinc on both Eclair and Froyo, but no match for it on the debloated HTC Gingerbread. It had the stock 1300 mAh battery compared to the Dinc 4G's 1700 mAh, but the screen resolution was smaller. I was able to get over 3 days out of that battery with moderate Wi-fi usage.

Regardless, this phone has pretty amazing battery life, and I love it!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tonyb81:
Is this running 100% stock?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Yes, 100% stock, unrooted, still locked. I disabled a few apps that run in the background that I will never use, like Google+, the radio apps, Facebook, etc.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
So, anyway, I did a factory data reset Thursday to try to fix my weather problem, which didn't work, and then decided to charge it up and see what kind of battery life I could get out of it when only using Wi-Fi when I needed it. I pulled it off the charger Thursday night before bed and it's been running ever since.

For those of you who would ask, this is 100% stock and unrooted, only select apps are disabled that I never use.

Voice Calls: I didn't use it much yesterday other than a few calls totaling 46 minutes.

Messages: I probably didn't break 100 messages yesterday, which is low for me.

Wi-Fi: I turned off Wi-Fi when I wasn't using it.

Dead Trigger: I only played for like 3 levels, which is 10-15 minutes.

Music: Probably about half an hour of music. I know of no way to check, since it's part of the system.

As you can see, I didn't have my screen on nearly as long as my previous go-round, which is why so much battery is still left.

Anyway, I'm still quite impressed with this phone's battery. Without going nuts with your usage, there's no way it'll run out in less than a day, and if I kept at this pace, I could easily make 3 days out of moderate use.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
yes sir mne is doin great too
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Has anyone noticed a significant change since the update? I seem to get about an hour or two more out of my phone.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] wmuflyer:
I've been doing better also, no hard numbers but I've had an easier time making two days without any extra effort.
