[HD2 General] GraileR1:
Thanks guys, that helps me out. I thought the flashing LED's were a good thing. Guess not. I keep wanting to blame WM operating system because that strange error message "battery is broken" had to have been programed into it right? I have looked into a sim problem, I checked the micro USB terminals, seem ok? Is it possible the orange and green LED's flashing back and forth represent a diagnostic code?

I appreciate any input. I will contact Htc tommorrow but I would really like to fix this myself.
[HD2 General] GraileR1:
I am looking into power differences as I am in Canada and this device came from the UK. Maybe theres a difference there giving me this strange error.
[HD2 General] lovebell:
I had the same experience about flashing led while on AC charging, then it appeared some odd issues,http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=606093

I still have this issue that charging on a AC power, therefor I have to charge the battery via USB to PC, and it is interesting that I am in Canada as well.So the Canadian voltage is not match HD2's ? thats funny.

I suggest you can release the energy to empty, as possible as you can,then recharge it via USB-PC.

I did contact to the HTC support, and seems they are extremely slow to response.

What a pain, a wonderful phone has so many bugs, at least mine is.
[HD2 General] blanco360:
I had this message pop up the other night. Soft reboot wasn't working, but after taking the battery out and putting it back in again it started working fine.....
[HD2 General] GraileR1:
Just a note to put this thread to bed, i have talked to htc today in the UK and the USA and It is heading to the states for repair. Both countries said they had never seen the error message I was getting. "Your battery is broken and cannot be recharged. Please replace your battery."

If anyones interested I will let you know how this turns out.
[HD2 General] lovebell:
I got a call from HTC HK yesterday, the HTC guy has never heared my problem as well, he didn't provide me any solution, I said I will contact them again after I get my new battery and this issue still exists.

I hope a battery replacement will solve my issue, otherwise, I have to send it to repair as yours.
[HD2 General] G&C:
Similar Problem

I had the same green LED, pause, orange LED, pause, etc. pattern and my battery would not charge; turned out to be the middle prong on my HT2 that connects to the battery; another person had posted the solution of bending that middle prong down slightly and it worked. Good luck.
[HD2 General] darryl22:
i had the orange/green led a couple of days ago and after taking the battery off i noticed one of the contacts bent over after bending it back problem has gone
[HD2 General] pa49:
This LED flashing warns of a malfunction in the charge circuits.

There's is a hardware fault that needs warranty attention.

Or closer inspection of barry contracts.
[HD2 General] bosone:
Thank you darryl22... Had exactly the same problem with one of my HD2 and changing the battery didn't solve it... but bending the middle contact did!
[HD2 General] Kenneth914:

a new battery will help maybe

Duplicate HTC Calendar and HTC Music shortcuts in my Start menu.

How to remove the shortcuts/link?
[HD2 General] myth1001:
You will find your answer here.
[HD2 General] bhchng:
I installed the cab but it doesn't remove the duplicate links in the Start Menu.
[HD2 General] myth1001:
The cab is to prevent it from reappearing every time you restart your phone.

To remove the shorcuts, you will need to remove the file manually.

Go to file explorer,

My Device > Windows > Start menu > Programs

Then, remove HTC Music, etc ... that you don't want to be there.
[HD2 General] bhchng:
Har... it works! Thanks myth1001.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tatung70:
I am using Vista Battery Guage, which is slick, but I want to remove it. I have tried a numebr of ways to stop it but cant. I tried deleting the file but get an error stating its locked.

Tried using a process viewer to kill and that locks the phone.

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
HTC volume control always irritated me because by default it controls ringer volume, not system volume.

And guess what ? There is simple registry entry for that !

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\DefaultPage

Change from 1 to 0. Softreset and you are good to go. I've just found it out, so stay if you can, you can help me testing possible conflicts with misc situations/applications.

PS. It looks on my screen like there is space in middle of 'defaultpage' .. it is not ! No idea why it looks like that. That values should be there, you don't create any new keys or something.
[HD2 General] sharpey:
this do the same as turning off the single volume setting?
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
No .. you have two sliders. But if you press the volume keys, it controls system volume, not ringer volume (as it does without the tweak).
[HD2 General] -Vulture-:
Thanks, what a helpful tweak, indeed!
[HD2 General] htc12345:
great ! very helpful
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
Ok .. I think it works in every situation. Haven't found single problem during weekend.
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
Not sure if I get this...but if I turn off the single volume settings, my vol buttons only change the system volume by default, unless I click on the ringer tab.
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
Maybe they changed it ? Mine always moved ringer first. I have 1.43.479.2 ROM.

[Shift Development] khals:
Thanks for keeping the Shift updated Monx! :)

Just out of curiosity, when will the timebomb go off?
[Shift Development] Josasp:
I don't get you.

Why timebombs?

Why registration?

Why do you not release roms when they are fuctional, like 1.08?

You are only pissing of the community.

First you make the best rom and then you screw it up by not releasing or timeboms.

Seriously why?
[Shift Development] monx®:
It is not stable yet. It has memory leak/drainage issue.

You only hv to complete less than 1 min registration but I hv to stay awake for a few sleepless nights.

CLEAR ENOUGH FOR YOU? who piss who?
[Shift Development] nobody123:
Why timebombs?

=> because rom ist not finished yet(are you serious asking this?)

Why registration?

=> Probably more people on his website, typcally he does not get any real

reward for his work. Again are you serious?

Why do you not release roms when they are fuctional, like 1.08?

why even bother releasing any of the roms, if someone get comments like yours:

"You are only pissing of the community."

You are a supplicant without any effort, so seriously why do you think you are in a position to claim something?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] at45:
My X1 has just restarted and doesn't get to the Windows Mobile start-up screen. The last thing you see is the colourful XPERIA logo after the SE logo, then that's it.

I just uninstalled Funambol (cos it's "not very good"), but nothing else has changed in a while that I recall. I'm on 6.5

Help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sicbroserg:
I have a TP2 which I got outright and currently has 3 sim. Today I tried my friends Telstra NextG sim and I can't get any service. Tried manual search and also tried changing Band from Automatic to GSM(1900+850)+UMTS(1900+850).

Nothing. Also, manual search finds Optus network but not Telsrta.

This is a bit of a bummer cause I was going to switch to Telstra NextG in few weeks.

Would a ROM upgrade fix this? plz help.

Touch Pro 2 (WM 6.5 HTC Rom)

ROM: 1.86.710.3 (67102)

Radio: 4.49.25.17

btw. My friend has a Telstra branded Touch Diamond2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] krisez:
thats quite interesting! telstra are yet to release their 6.5 update, but perhaps getting a copy from your telstra friend when its released will fix this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] madr:
My understanding is thtat the unbranded TP2 is a 900/2100 phone. the settings may allow 850/1900 but it will not work. My understanidn is that the nextG version sold by telstra has a different internal antenna setup
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
The unbranded TP2 is quadband GSM but does not support Telstra 3G. Does Telstra not operate a 2G network? If not then it will not work on Telstra. You need either a Telstra TP2 or a North American TP2 (such as AT&T or some Canadian ones).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sicbroserg:
yeah Telstra does have 2G, but the whole reason of me switching is the Next G network.

can anyone with an Telstra branded TP2 post their ROM and Radio, plz.

wondering if changing the radio will fix it. I find it hard to believe that HTC manufactures TP2s, as well as Diamond2 or even Touch HD, just for Telstra.

Hi I have HTC Hero modaco rom 2.0 and I cant see Arabic text on my phone. It shows square boxes instead :confused:

Is there a fix for this please?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heematux:
to read and write sms i use an app called mirsal from the market

to see arabic text in the browser to need to install an arabic font, but i havent tried it as it requires the phone to be rooted

http://android.modaco.com/content/h...92804/how-solve-not-connected-letters/#entry0
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busterwolf:
Unfortunately, even if you put the Arabic fonts into the system it would still read them, but not in word-connected forms. It would still be better than having nothing at all, but it's still annoying to not be able to browse Arabic sites and/or make use of the Arabic language on Widgets. I hope someone fixes this soon or better yet, have Google integrate the Arabic language just like Apple did with the iPhone more than a year ago...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ermacwins:

Arabic fonts in your htyc hero gsm

hi all :

after a long heavy times with testing and testing roms , i managed to let my hero to read arabic fonts in sms and internet , so in brief :

you need froyvillain 1.5.0 and arabic signed fonts from this site : cyanogen4arab.com/?tag=froyo

you choose htc hero and you download the fonts and install the zip file from boot and voila.

belive me i have tried many roms and the only one that worked for me is froydvillain 1.5.0

enjoy :)

[Touch CDMA General] smarcin:
I think I'm losing my mind. I am on Sprint. The GPS on my Vogue (in Windows) would work some days, and other days I just couldn't get a fix. So, having insurance, I swapped it out for a refurbed one today. When I try and run Android that is on my microSD, I get a screen with some colored stuff, then it's blank. I know it actually loads Android, as after some waiting, I get the notification sounds for voicemail. The screen is black, however. I've tried changing the panel number in the DEFAULT.txt, deleting the data.img, and even tried a different installation on a different microSD. Both installations worked on my previous Vogue. Any ideas? Is it possible that I now have one of those Vogues that just won't boot Android? I'm definitely taking this one back to Sprint when they open tomorrow! In Windows it has a problem with the menus, so I have a reason, though the tech is a friend and would either give me back my old one, or swap it again, thank goodness. I'm really tempted to just get a Hero, but I'm on the old 1250 min SERO for $50, with a few freebies. I'd have to upgrade my plan. I'm out of contract, too. And, though you can get a Hero from Best Buy or Radio Shack for $99, it's $179 from Sprint. :(

Sally
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
Don't ditch the SERO plan, just swap out a new Vogue and try again. Or maybe easier to just reformat the card and start fresh with Android. The hero is overrated when you can run a build like SenseHero and its almost as fast but significantly cheaper.
[Touch CDMA General] tatnai:
forgive me for asking, but just to make sure - did you unlock the phone and upgrade the radio on your replacement? also, if you go hero, you could try to buy a hero and esn swap it (there is a forum with instructions - seems kinda complicated, but very well detailed) to your vogue, and use it on SERO.
[Touch CDMA General] smarcin:
Yes, that's my plan

I did format the card with Gparted. I added 2 ext2 partitions. After the 2 "beeps," some colored horizontal lines go by really quickly, then the black screen of death.

The Hero in the store was laggy too. I can't imagine why I'd pay $179, when I can run Android for free on my old Touch. I'm going to try and get my original Touch back and use it until they get another Touch for me.

Strangely enough, I switched back to my Touch Pro and am working on getting Android on it. Mostly it works, though it reboots spontaneously. And, the deal breaker? The mic doesn't work! They say if you make a call before you run haret, you might get it working. This is on a Sprint Touch Pro, Raphael 800. Data works and SMS. Speaker seems to work. If only it worked as well as a Touch!

Sally
[Touch CDMA General] smarcin:
I haven't flashed the radio

The radio on both my original Touch and the replacement is the same: 3.42.30. I don't think the radio is the cause of not being able to boot Android. (I've never unlocked or flashed either.)

I'd rather not do an ESN swap. I like being able to use my Sprint insurance, if anything goes wrong.

Sally
[Touch CDMA General] tatnai:
what I do: don't pay for sprint insurance, save the 7 dollars you pay every month, and after two years, take the $168 and put it towards a phone on ebay. of course, I never buy the latest and greatest, so to each their own :cool:

people have had issues with that particular radio, can't remember exactly what problems they were reporting (I think it was audio problems). I would still recommend trying to upgrade your radio to 3.42.50.
[Touch HD General] biggie89:
Hi all,

Im back after a very long time because.

I buyed after a very long time a htc touch hd...

well its not new, the guy were i buyed from used it for 1week and didn't liked the touchscreen. He told me he received it as a present for xmas and stuff like that.

Now is my Question: i want to flash my rom because its WM 6.1 and i heared alot of great things about WM 6.5 is that trough ?

Also if i flash my HTC TOUCH HD, will my simlock dissapear or something ?

Cause on my last phones it was, i flashed it and i needed to unlock it again and more headache.

Is it normal that the simlock will reactivate if its flashed to WM6.5 ??

If the htc still unlocked.

Which ROM you all will advice me ? i really prefer Dutch roms, but english roms are also oke.

and also tell me why, so i can get all the benefits of it :):D

Im not a beginner in flashing of phones but flashing of HTC's i am.

I only did it once as far as i can remember and that was on a P3300 a very old model, So if there is also a little manual i will be very thankfull.

Thank you all,

Regards,

BiGGiE89
[Touch HD General] MasDroid:
Hi biggie89,

Yes, the good news is that there have been many advancements and improvements to the Windows Mobile OS in version 6.5, such as having a more finger friendly User Interface - providing you with a much neater and tidy user experience. Speed varies depending on which 6.5/6.5.x ROM you choose to install and you will be glad to know that both Dutch and English ROMs are available for download :)

The bad news is that if you flash your HD in it's current state (simlocked), then I am afraid that this is unlikely to work until you get your SIM unlocked as the simlock is controlled by the baseband. Data is stored there too and flashing the radio or ROM will not have any effect on the simlock. Therefore, I would advise you to have it unlocked before you begin the flashing process.

Here is a guide that you can read to make you more aware of how to flash a Touch HD ROM. Essentially, what you must do first is unlock your phone using either Hard-SPL or USPL.

You can also see this link as it details what the latest ROM builds offer in terms of stability and performance.

I think it would be a little unfair to say which ROM is best especiallly for the people who create these custom ROMs. Each ROM is different in their own little way i.e. one ROM might be fast but a little unstable, another may be stable but a little slow, etc... The best thing you can do is try out different ROMs (Dutch or English versions) yourself and try to discover which one meets your needs.

Note: when you get to the stage of downloading a ROM, to find a Dutch based ROM, simply look at the headings of the ROMs listed from this link. Dutch ROMs include the abbreviation NLD in their title [NLD = Netherlands], and English ROMs have WWE in the title [WWE = World Wide English].

I hope this helps you out.

Regards.
[Touch HD General] ClydeB1:
Mastoid is correct. Flashing to a new rom, even if you use hspl, will unfortunately not unlock the sim.

There are tools that can do that, but it is not free. You can try this one which seems to be popular and effective.
[Touch HD General] biggie89:
Hi all and thanks for your reply on my message..

My htc HD works now with my vodafone NL simcard so its not simlocked or something i think i wrote my question wrong..

Im scared if i FLash my rom that the unlocking of my device comes back, So i can't use my vodafone NL simcard with it.

Is that possible ??

the current state is unlocked or locked with vodafone i dont know for sure but you guys tell me that if i FLASH my rom now i still can use my vodafone NL simcard ???

if that is the way i will flash my rom in to a nice ROM that u guys told me to do..

the thing what i want to is..

USE my vodafone NL simcard with my htc touch HD like now but with a different ROM.

my htc touch HD is working great with WM 6.1 with a vodafone NL simcard.

so im still confused with the simcard if it will work.

do you guys think that it will work with WM6.5 ??

Greetz,

[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Flashing a rom does not affect the status of the simcard so it will still work. Just follow the Dummies Guide (link by Mastoid above) and you'll be fine ;)

[Touch HD General] biggie89:
thank you very much and all the guys who tried to help me...

I will start with flashin my rom tomorrow..

is there also a manual what tells me how to make your own ROM..

If you go to any of the igo resources on the web they tell you how to do lots of things with this process.

I recommend that you try this as there are lots of good skins.
