I am running NRGz 21855 Dec 31st Standard build and it is pretty sweet. A few bugs but it is still nice. NRG also puts out another TP2 ROM which is less than bleeding edge but more stable codenamed Pheonix. Also sense 2.8 (used to be called Manila) has recently been released for the Leo so we will see it baked into Roms including the above listed one very soon!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] theherofromdoom:
Omg kroniced thank you to for repling, Im having a hard time with this, there is a good chance im going to be asking for help. Thanks alot for the link man, I really mean it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] NoWorthWhile:
Wait, what?

As in, Touch Flo 3D 2.8? As in a new version over Sense UI 2.5, already found on Leo & custom roms for other devices?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] theherofromdoom:
Progress report lol, Ok ladys and gents here is where im at. Well sadly i dont get alot of time to work on this, only weekends mostly because of work and what not. kroniced send me this perfect really cool ROM on the link of this page, its just like Max Manila 2.5/2.8, its really cool. So im looking around to the pages on how to get it and im stuck at step one. For some reason it keeps giving me a fatal error when i try to back up my phone with Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3. I read from the forums you need to back up before changing ROM's. I dident know that I thought it would be like changing the wall paper or theme of the phone. Sorry really noob at this. I need like a dumbies video of how to do this or some really easy way to understand how to do this please i beg you all lol. Sorry guys this is just giving me a hard time, im gonna try and do it by tonite. please all your feed back is very helpful to me and I thank you all for it, remeber I have the tilt 2. Thank you all, wish me luck! All help is appreshated very much!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
So what exactly happens when you run Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.EXE? Is it a connection error, a program error, a device error? If you have a Tilt2, you probably need to install this to your device before you run the executable. BTW, you're not backing up your device with HardSPL, you're replacing the stock, HTC bootloader with a patched bootloader, a process which you only need to do once. It's also not necessary to back up your device before flashing a new ROM, it's just recommended if you have important stuff saved to main memory, since you lose all the data on your device each time you flash. You will not lose data when installing HardSPL with this executable.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] theherofromdoom:
Hay thanks for reasponeding DaveTheTytnIIGuy, here is what the error seys, "ERROR

[246] Device not reasponding" -"The update utillity cannot get respones from your PDA phone. Please check that your USB cradle/cable is connected properly between the pc and your PDA phone. And also check your PDA phone."

Now my phone is connected, im possitive it synced as well. I dont know why is seys that. As far as anything I have on my phone just all my numbers, the rest are things like music witch i can put back on, but thats on my 8 gig memory card.

I down loaded the link named "this" to my comp. How do I get them on my phone, extraced them to my phone?? Not really sure how or what to do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
A .cab is an installer, just like an EXE or MSI on a desktop computer. Don't uncompress it, just put the .cab file as is onto your device, disconnect your device from the computer, browse to wherever you put it with File Explorer Mobile, and open it. Install it to internal memory and you're done. Also, try disabling your Antivirus/Firewall and ensure you have Windows Mobile Device Center (Vista/7) or ActiveSync (XP and lower). And no offence, but you might want to hold off on flashing for a little while, at least until you get a bit more acquainted with Windows Mobile. I recommend that everyone who flashes their device at least understand the technical aspects, since that highly reduces chances of bricking as an end result.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] theherofromdoom:
DaveTheTyntIIGuy thank so much I did what u sed and i instolled it with no problems to my phone. You just helped me in a big way. Now I know how to download programes to my phone. So I think I have an idea how to do what i first came here to do. But your are rite 100%, I gotta get a understanding of this before I do anything so I dont screw up my phone. Thank you alot. So now that I downloaded the enablerapinew my phone is ready for when I decide to get a new interface on the phone like the Manila 2.5 / 2.8 / ext. ?

Get accustomed to you phone by doing the minor cabs and tweaks found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=524655

Most of this stuff is harmless and will get you use to using cabs and changing things on your phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
No, that .cab enables RAPI (Remote API) on the Tilt2, which allows programs like the HardSPL unlocker, on the PC, to control the device to an extent, which it needs to do in order to flash HardSPL.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hotelazo:
Hi, How can I get the actual version of manila running on my Tilt 2

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
It's listed in this key in your registry:

Its HKLM\Software\Manila\Version
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pistou:
minor correction: HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Version

On the stock Tilt2, the version is 2.1.19183217.0

Note that this can also be seen by looking at the About section of the Settings tab in TF3D.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] theherofromdoom:
This is awsome DaveTheTytnIIGuy, the programe you sent me worked. I was suscussfully able to flash my HardSPL, with Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3. Thank you. So now I'm up to the next step witch is finding a ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] raveztaylor:
Is it possible to get Manila without flashing a cooked rom or is manila a cooked rom? I guess what I am asking is Can you get Manila as a CAB file or do you have to flash it as a ROM?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
The only way to get a different version of Manila is to change ROMs. If you're using the stock ROM, you'll need to switch to a cooked ROM to get one of the newer versions of Manila.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Macmee:
I was running my rogers htc dream fine with cyan 2.10 but when I went to do an update as I usually do to 2.12, it got stuck on rogers boot screen. I flashed the rom then kernel like I always do. I then clicked wipe/system default in recovery and flashed back to 2.10 and it was still stuck on rogers logo. No matter what I do its stuck on the rogers logo, but I can get into recovery fine. Please help:(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Macmee:
Fixed by fastbooting and erasing everything and reloading system.img. For some reason my Rogers phone doesn't like Cyanogen 2.12 but works with 2.10. Tried reflashing 2.12 and it didn't work but when reflashing system.img and then cyan 2.10 and 2.10 kernel it worked. Weird.
[Nexus One General] alxjrvs:
Hey all. long time lurker, first time poster.

I received my nexus one a few days ago, and it has been a blast. However, after charging it last night ( the first time I charged it via wall charger as opposed to USB) I awoke to find it incredibly hot. I let it cool down, but ever since, the vibration has not worked.

I briefly was able to get the vibration on by taking out the battery and leaving phone and battery by the cold window. It vibrated normally on startup, and briefly in the os before turning off. Since, I have had no luck.

Any suggestions? I could, of course, send it off to get repaired under warranty, but i'd rather see what I can do first. I am currently attempting to drain the battery completely and see what that might do. I'm shooting in the dark, I know, but I'd rather try to figure it out as much as I can.

Thanks!
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
try a factory reset (Settings>about phone), if that doesnt work its hardware problem so send it in.
[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
Weird, i havent had any problems with mine getting hot. Vibration doesnt work on anything? Keyboard, calls, etc. and youre sure you went into settings and enabled it on those?
[Nexus One General] mellowgato:
settings/sound and display.

Enable haptic feedback.

if the phone is in silent mode this option will be grayed out.

I hope it is as simple as that and that it is not damaged from charging.
[Nexus One General] Ellises:
I'm having vibration problems too, but I don't think it's due to charging, but to me it seems like the vibration is going out. I was using the haptic feedback for the vk, and now it doesn't work half the time, and when it does, it is not very noticeable.

but the bigger vibrations still work, so I'm clueless on it
[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
I know in better keyboard you can change how long the vibration lasts for, Im using smart keyboard right now and I can definitely feel the press of the keys.
[Nexus One General] dcplaya:
This problem happened on a swap I tried (my screen has dust under it) and I called HTC and said I was sending the swap back because of this and they said it was fine. Give HTC a call, I think its a hardware problem
[Nexus One General] austin8868:
Thats how mine was, it was charging and got really hot, now when i get text messages it doesnt vibarate but if i get a phone call it does.
[Nexus One General] mrbkkt1:
a couple of times, when i charged overnight, the phone gets hot. i think if it has a "running" app, it does this.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
It's completely normal for the phone to get "hot" when charging or running apps with heavy power utilization... basically anything demands a decent amount of power.

However, it shouldn't get so hot that it's uncomfortable to hold or that parts start failing... that would indicate a defect with the phone and would necessitate an exchange through HTC.
[Nexus One General] chrisirhc:
Yes, in fact all notification vibrations fail now (GTalk / GMail Vibration notifications fail). This happened to me just today. Sigh.

Update: Notice I said all notification vibrations. It's specifically notification vibrations. All other types of vibrations such as haptic feedback and phone calls work fine. Only vibrations that pertain to the notifications / notification bar do not happen anymore. I don't think this is a hardware issue. This happened just recently. Could it be due to the new (OTA) update? Something broken?
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
i can't get mine to vibrate when a text comes in, no matter what settings i use. it will vibrate when a call comes in. i text a lot, so that would be really handy to have it work (like it should) when i'm out and it's too busy/loud to hear the phone :( but, not sure if i want to send it back because of this...
[Nexus One General] ztm.000:
That's crazy I've never had a phone that vibrates stronger.
[Nexus One General] chrisirhc:
I've updated my post above. It's not about the vibration of the phone but just on the notification vibrations. Somehow it just stopped all of a sudden.

Looks like this person might've had the same problem:

/showthread.php?t=628264

(I can't post links since I'm a new user)

Shall try a hard reset and see how that goes then. Rather reluctant to try it but here goes..

Update: Nope. Still no vibration for notifications after doing Hard Reset (using "Clear Storage"). I have even tested this using the API Demos app from the Market. Under App -> Notification -> Status Bar -> Vibrate button there is no vibration to be felt.
[Nexus One General] lazaro17:
same thing is happening to me now. started off great but after a week of haptic feedback on vk i can hardly feel the vibrates anymore
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
use the search function, lol. if you are having problems with notification vibration, download the 'sound manager' app from the market. start it up. press menu > vibrate settings. set it up how you want. fixes the issue.
[Nexus One General] chrisirhc:
I searched, but I kept searching for the "vibration" keyword. That thread only shows when you search "vibrate" .. or "notification vibrate". My phone is with HTC now. I don't understand why a Hard Reset doesn't resolve the issue...
[Nexus One General] fherbet:
fixed

I can confim this trick works... DL sound manager from the market then activate " vibrate whenever possible" in vibration menu...

it fixed the problem i had : no vibrations only on notifications ..

never had such a fast phone, thanks to google,timothydonohue, cyanogen and all modders...!!! :D

[Hero CDMA General] MorningThief581:
Hey there. My phone seems to be stuck on the exclamation point screen.

I downloaded the latest pre-kitchen to root, but I made the mistake of clicking to create a Nandroid backup before I rooted. As soon as the phone rebooted my PC automatically installed a new USB driver for the device (no idea why), and now it doesn't show up as a mounted drive or in HTC sync. I'm looking at the exclamation point, and it's still hooked up to the computer, but I'm not really sure what to do next to regain control.

Help?
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
pull your battery and try to restart the phone normally, you should be fine.

return;

}

That is what I'm currently using and it accomplishes nothing :(
[HD2 General] iandooley:
Just in case you hadn't noticed (well I hadn't anyway!) the HD2 is now available on Virgin Mobile in the UK

http://bit.ly/6tBFFr

The deals seem to blow some of the established ones away

:)
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
Hardly blown away, to get the free phone you need to sign up for a 2 year tariff and the £35, 18 month tariff isn't much better than what I got from O2. Except I got the phone for less than £2 and they want £20.

Still, some good deals on there, especially if they have good stock levels.
[HD2 General] iandooley:
Fair comment. I haven't seen that deal on O2.

It's just that I was about to commit to either a £35 18 month contract or £45 12 month (handsets £free - £90). So £25/m (+£80) seems ok.

But as you say, let's see what the stock levels are like.
[HD2 General] Sunil_237:
this IS the best priced company out there, i ordered mine last night.

18 months, virgin £25, 500 mins, unlimited text and internet to 1gb fair usage, phone cost £80 + £5 postage. with this i got 2 months free so £50 because i am a virgin media customer.

you can get £30 cashback through quidco.com or another cashback site.

even the customer service at tmobile couldn't believe it (when i was getting my PAC) and had to go online to check lol.

25*18 = 450 - 50 = 400 + 85 = 485 for 18 months.

that about the same cost if you took this on vodafone through a third party company (dial-a-phone) but here you can port your number (which i think is an important thing).
[HD2 General] DuoM:
Thanks for posting this. It is a good deal.

You are right. It's the best deal I've seen so far and I haven't seen anything close from anyone else with those minutes and Internet included. Add the 2 months free and cashback and it's an outstanding deal.

Do you have your phone yet? If so can you use Skype on it to chat and talk?

Any issues with it?

Also, did it come with the case and an SD card?

Thanks.
[HD2 General] paulking:
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!! :@

my virgin contract was up this month aswel! :(
[HD2 General] arfster:
I paid 100ish on a 34/month 12 month contract more than a month ago, including internet. This is way more expensive.
[HD2 General] kai_:
Hardly a reason to say the Virgin offer isn't a good deal - show me where O2 advertise a HD2 for £2 on a £20 per month contract? I'm going to say that you can't because it was a retention offer which they probably only offered you because you spent £30+ the previous 18 months with O2.

To concentrate on getting a 'free' phone also shows your naivety in thinking - no handset is offered for free as they are all subsidised according to how much you are paying over the term of the contract (it's funny how the handset becomes 'free' when the monthly price is £35+ over 18+ months isn't it?).

The Virgin mobile tarrifs are extremely good value in comparison to everyone else especially when you compare the overall costs. Now if someone can find out if they are sim unlocked directly from Virgin this will become a stonking deal.
[HD2 General] iandooley:
I'll let you know later. Mine's due to be delivered today :D
[HD2 General] DuoM:
I don't think it's way more expensive. In fact I think that it will still be cheaper on Virgin.

How many minutes and texts does your deal come with and what network is it on? Is the Internet "unlimited" on that network and could you please let us know how much you actually paid for the phone? £98, £120, £101?

Thanks.
[HD2 General] HTCHD2NEW:
My deal with T-Mobile was

16GB SD -

£25.00 cashback

Free phone

900 Mins / Unlimited txts and internet

18th Month contract.

£35.00 per month

I moved from 3 to T-Mob to get this phone..
[HD2 General] kai_:
Virgin Mobile Tariff (best value/cheapest that I can see):

500 minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited internet:

18 months x £25 + £79.99 for handset = £529.99 total cost.

Your tariff:

12 months x £34 + £100-'ish' for handset = £508'ish'

No idea how much 'ish' is and also no idea how many minutes or texts you are getting either for your £508'ish'. Neither can it be said that £22 for 6 extra months usage is 'way more expensive'.

When I was looking for my HD2 I think at the time MobilePhonesDirect were offering the best value for me, can't remember the exact pricing and tariff but overall cost was something in the region of £520 but with only 300 minutes and 200 texts, unlimited data on T-Mobile. That was over a 12 month term I think and also required £102 up front for the handset.

Now considering that the cheapest you're going to get a HD2 outright for is about £450 from Carphonewarehouse (reported by someone, but no idea if it's sim free or not) you can't say that the value of calls/texts/data isn't worth £80? After all, even if you buy the handset outright you've still got to pay for a phone plan of some kind.
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
And show me where I said it wasn't a good deal. Take your time.

You're talking to someone who worked for O2 IT for four years, I'm well aware how this works thanks and that phones are subsidised. And I'd wouldn't say I 'concentrated' on anything, merely talked about something that was relevant.

Still, feel free to continue being patronizing, I'm sure you feel a whole lot better for it.
[HD2 General] kevb:
but ....

in case anybody is interested ...

the phone has no sim lock

no branding on it at all

the serial number works on the htc website

all good for me :)
[HD2 General] DuoM:
Thanks, now I'm very interested.

If possible could you let me know what your fastest download rate is when you have good coverage. Also if possible could you test out Skype (if you use it).

Thanks again.
[HD2 General] kevb:
I don't use skype, never felt the urge, i never max my tariff out as is :)

don't have any any other apps loaded on it yet except for resco explorer and sbp backup.

this is only my 2nd day with it, ordered it online from virgin at about 2:30pm and it was delivered next day by DHL :)

it was my intention to run the phone "as is" for a while to make sure there are no problems, which means i will not be installing any other software just yet.

if i download any large files files i will try and time it manually if thats any good to you?

any other info you need feel free to ask.

apart from getting used to a (very)sensitive screen compared to my last resistive screen i am still feeling the love for it :)
[HD2 General] DuoM:
Well, you could try and time it manually or you can use the website: http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed

which should allow you to test the download speed.

The only thing is that I'm not to sure about how accurate it is and their servers seem to be in the USA so that's probably not too good.

I was going to ask about the keyboard but it sounds like it's super sensitive, like others I've tried on the HD2. Can you type on it?

Oh, perhaps you could tell me which ROM version you have and if it came with an SD card and a case (not that I normally use one)?

Thanks.

EDIT: Oh, just saw the ROM in your sig. Did it come with that one?
[HD2 General] slewis1972:
I was really tempted but then realised you cannot downgrade tariffs at anytime. I personally think going via mobilephonesdirect with topchashback and vf maybe the better option.

[HD2 General] Silent Shark:
Perfect!

My T-Mob contract is up in a week, and Virgin was by far the best deal I could find.

Virgin £25pm 18mths + £79.99phone = £529.99

The closest I can get is:

TMob £22.50pm 18ths + £169.99 = £574.99

Virgin give more 300 more minutes and unlimited texts (versus 200), both having unlimited web. I can't find a better deal really. I would perfer O2, but I can't get anywhere near Virgin for mins/txts and phone price. Closest is £20pm + £7.50Web 18mths + £250 phone, making it £745 in total! And you only get 75 minutes!

I was worried about being locked into operator provided updates only (my Diamond was bought from Expansys, so fully unlocked), but this is great news! Thanks!

Quick question: Do I need my PAC code when I order, or can I do it after ordering? I was able to do so when I moved to T-Mob...
