thanks richie,

i will download active sync now, but i have a question,

im tryng to find the rom section but i have found quite a few posts, im really confused, what is SPL??

do i just install 1.48 and that should debrand and unlock my device??

and what is goldcard???

im coming from an n97, and have been using symbian for over 5 years, so i apologize in advance
[HD2 General] terrytpot:
o2 will now let you unlock it,maybe for free...more info on that here:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5054228&postcount=2
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
The latest 1.48 ROM cannot be loaded without using goldcard, on an O2 HD2.

For Windows Vista and 7, you need Windows Mobile Device Center (activesync renamed).

It on the windows mobile site to download.

Follow this thread to the letter and you won`t go wrong....
[HD2 General] S_J_D:
Useful info!

Chaps,

Once this has the 1.48 installed on it will it then be able to be upgraded with ROM's from the HTC site in future without the use of a GoldCard?

Or will it need to be network unlocked too?

Is this GoldCard business needed because the O2 HD2 is network locked?
[HD2 General] richie_jones:
For now you will need to use the goldcard method for installing the roms from HTC as they have not yet gone official..I can`t see it affecting future upgrades from the HTC site but my experience tells me that when ever i`ve had an O2 branded HTC device the HTC website won`t allow downloads from there site when you have to enter your serial number. You have to wait for O2 to release there own version of the update which NEVER happens....

Hence why i ended up at this brilliant site.
[HD2 General] mox123:
thanks guys, im going to follow the goldcard method,

will there be such another method without goldcard in the near future? im not even sure what goldcard is to be honest

will debranding to 1.48 unlock the phone as well?? or not ??

i have submitted the unlock phone request form on o2's website but am just wondering if the new rom will unlock the phone?
[HD2 General] S_J_D:
Thanks Richie, that's a very comprehensive answer!
[HD2 General] Rossimac:
Hey, I've got an O2 branded phone which was unlocked using the unlocking website (€22 it cost). Using a 3 UK sim and I'm wanting to get rid of O2's branding.

I've downloaded "RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe"

My question is will this ROM remove the branding and do I need to use the goldcard with this or is this a shipped rom (that I can just update using the exe)?

Many thanks,

Ross.
[HD2 General] TartanArmy:
Yes and Yes

goldcard needed and rom will remove branding
[HD2 General] Rossimac:
Okay cool, card prepared and rom loaded on.

Is this the best rom to use at this moment? Just waiting for the battery to charge > 80%
[HD2 General] sidelong:
Branding is cosmetic, I can live with that. Network locking prevents the use of another network's SIM cards and is the real problem. I recently bought an O2 branded HD2 on ebay, and I am not an O2 subscriber. Whilst I have read on other threads that O2 now offer unlock codes for free, it seems unlikely that they will do this for a non-subscriber. So I have been trying the commercial unlockers, of which there are many. Of the four tried so far, all have been unable to calculate an unlock code for my EMEI no. To be fair, three of them immediately refunded what I had paid them. So now I am stuck with O2. I would like to understand this situation better. Is my phone just too new, in which case I just need to be patient? Is it something worse? Any comment would be welcome.

BTW reflashing to a stock or cooked ROM does NOT remove network locking.

How do I disable the phone from auto connecting to gprs? I tried testing it by launching opera without switching on wifi. The phone still connects through gprs although I turn data connection off. It will turn data connection on by itself. Even when I switch wifi on and want it to connect through wifi instead, it is still connecting through gprs. How do i solve this?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] koen-ronse:
When wifi is "connected" (not only "on"), it uses wifi, no dataconnection.

If you really don't want a dataconnection, use something like NoData...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] liehuo:
i tried NoData but it's not working. i'm using official htc wm6.5 rom.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] sualc:
Sorry I cannot be more precise because I don't use it anymore, but I remember there was an option to block data connection in HDTweak. Is that you want? Block dataconnection permanently? If so, you could alternatively delete your mobile operator connection in Settings/Connections. If anyone knows the registry changes involved in this,please post them so that I can make a .cab, I need it when roaming.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] 336663:
try MWLongLife! It's magic

this program is developed for saving battrey life by controlling 3G/2G network and data usage

you can set each program which need data access by 3G, WiFi, USB, etc.

Also, force to use Wifi rather than gprs if it's available.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] liehuo:
Thanks for all of the suggestions. I tried installing nodata again and it worked this time.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] RiZK:
for those interested there's also a cab to disable push internet completely (think that was the origin of your problem).

Search the forum on NoPushInternet
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] sualc:
Any link to this? didn't find anything around
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] munrobasher:
Yes please... I was about to post the same issue. I think the precedence in WM6.5 of using mobile wireless over WiFi is the wrong way around if the WiFi signal is strong. In my house, my WiFi is strong everywhere but 3G comes and goes. It's darn annoying to get the message about "No connectivity" when I know for sure there is a very good WiFi signal.

Hi,

I have got HTC HD for 3 days and HTC instead of connecting via wifi is connecting by operator (paid internet). How to completely block paid internet?

Thanks!
[Touch HD General] telegraph0000:
You could call your provider and tell them to remove that option from your plan.

Modaco nodata works good...

also, under settings--connections---advanced, make sure that everything connects to work, and not isp
[Touch HD General] Watt123:
So I should choose ISP? What should I choose in this row? Or how can I break in opisons my connections to operator?
[Touch HD General] telegraph0000:
NOT isp

settings--connections--connections--advanced--select networks

both tabs should say "my work network"

any program trying to use internet will use whatever connection is available (in your case and my case, wi-fi).
[Touch HD General] Watt123:
But is it possible to block paid connection (only by mailing my opertor?)
[Touch HD General] SilverSnow:
I had the same problem. NoData works great as does HD Tweak... Try them both!
[Touch HD General] telegraph0000:
Yes, I used to have the same problem, as I'm one of the few who don't have data plans around here...yes sad...I know. I decided to call ATT and tell them to block all data, they told me that I would not be able to receive multimedia text messages, but I really didn't care. Anytime the phone tries to connect via 3G, it simply tells me that the connection is not available.

•2.22.19.26I

•Baseband Version: 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I

•http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecod..._22_19_26I.zip

I initiall got the box with the arrow then the phone continued to the Rogers boot screen and has been stuck there for 20 minutes at least! So i took out the battery and turned it back on again and it get stuck on the Rogers screen still!

Have I bricked it!?! I thought you can only brick it when you update the SPL ... all I did was update the radio. Please HELP!

If it helps I was following the instructions step by step from: http://www.maximumpc.com/article/how...page=0,2

according to the cyanogen guide I bricked my phone:

Thanks in advance.

P.S. to clarfiy every button combination I press comes up with the Rogers boot screen. Unless I'm a complete idiot and am not pressing the buttons correctly I don't see how I can fix the phone if it won't boot! I though bricked phones are totaly duds (eg. they don't turn on/no charging lights...)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yozpalang:
see if you can get it recovery mod? (home+end)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
The main cause of bricks is using an SPL that is incompatible with the IPL (radio), hence it is possible not only to brick by changing the SPL, but also by changing the IPL.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
Not a chance.

If all he did was change the IPL, then the ONLY cause for it doing locking as it is, is that the SPL is not compatible with that IPL. It is, therefore, bricked.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beav_35:
The rogers dream is compatiable with either radio. You just need your recovery/kernel version to match your radio version. The 2.22.19.26I radio needs 32B and 3.22.20.17 needs 32A recovery/kernel.

He needs to reflash the 3.22.20.17 radio then complete the rogers dream rooting guide on the cm wiki.

Hi all,

I have a question for all you guru of networking.

I have a Modem Router ADSL Netgear DG834GT. I always used it with cable connection and worked fine. Now I moved to a new home that still is not povided by adsl line. Right now I am using my HD2 in tethering with my laptop to connect to internet. I was thinking about the possibility to make my Netgear DG834GT to share my HD2 connection via WiFI. Would it be possible? Can I share my ppc internet connection by using my Netgear DG834GT router. If yes, how to configure router?. I simply have tried to connect my HD2 to the Netgear DG834GT...and even if it connected to the router, the router didn't share internet connection coming from ppc...

THX so much and forgive me if my question is...a wired one.

Yes, of course, and I am using it. But What I should try it's different. I want my Netgear modem router to share not adsl line, but my ppc line.

:(
[Networking] stepw:
Well your question is, erhm, very wireless, actually :)

Anyhow, you should be able to achieve what you want by setting up default route on your NetGear that points to the IP of Wi-Fi interface of your HD2. You may also need to adjust IP routing parameters (e.g. add static routes, enable NAT, etc...) on your HD2, depending on how your services provider configured the APN.

And this is where it becomes a bit complex. There are no tools readily available for WnMo that allow management of IP protocol. You'll need to change a few things in the registry and maybe even write a program to manage static routes on your HD2.

The program names under the launcher tab is annoying - you have to manually edit them under HKLM\software\HTC\manila2D\Launcher\1\Dispname/ Using Total Commander I have to replace the text with a space - just deleting it and leaving a null field doesn't work.... (you need to soft reset after)

You have to do this in folder 1,2,3..... for all the programs - I'm sure someone will knock you up a simple cab if you ask nicely - I really should learn how to do it............

Hope that helps.

You should try - CE-Star Standard for WM5/WM6

http://www.mobem.com/products/Personal.php

Various versions available, which include Pinyin, Stroke, Handwriting recognition (which I bought, but don't use).

Has worked perfectly on WM6.1 and WM6.5 Xannytech ROM.

Switching between WM6.5 keyboard and the CE-Star keyboard is a little slow, but works well. Also toggle between CE-Star English mode and pinyin mode sometimes a little irritating. Suggest that once Pinyin Mode is working then switch to WM keyboard for English and not use CE-Star for English.

PS When you install CE-Star it will change your language settings to Chinese, so things like GoogleMaps will start to display all menus in Chinese, Just set Language to English in Regional settings, and everything is back to normal.
