[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] djstepanich:
Been using V2.2 with OS 28232. I like it but having a couple of issues:

1) Sometimes the text in softkey menus appear with boxes over them. Looks like something with the font is messed up.

2) The keypad for the unlock code is small....it only takes up the top quarter corner of the screen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dlotters:
this is fast becoming my new faveourite rom, thanks!

One issue I've had - no matter what I've tried has been getting Marketplace to work. I know it's not installed in the rom by default, so I downloaded it from mp.windowsphone.com and proceeded to install it.

I then get an error saying We encountered a serious error which requires that you exit Windows Marketplace. If you can't log in after a few hours, please contact Microsoft for help..

Checking through the marketplace log reveals a bunch of 404 Resource Not Found errors.

My locale info is Australia but I've tried using United States just in case and that hasn't made any differences. The problem is only affecting me with this ROM though that could very well be because the other ROM's i've tried have had the marketplace cooked in.

EDIT:

Nevermind, found the solution:

Mod registry key HLKM/System/Versions and change AKU to .5.3.00. Perfect ROM for me now :)

Any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
Thanks for this fix :) I will take it into the next release :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] spuri78:
Hi Ep - You think you'll incorporate DINIK new icons in your next release? What's next on the Menu? Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
I am not going to incorporate the Anastacia series Icons, I like the Icons I have right now very much.

On the menu for next release:

- New taskbar

- New background

- Speed improvements

- Battery consumption improvements

- Few I can't remember any more :)
[HD2 General] htchd2na:
I see the roaming symbol in the "status icons" (near battery and network status). But I am NOT roaming. Why is that?

I have also noticed, that this roaming symbol disappears if I press "start" button and list of all program icons appear. But when I press "Today", roaming symbol appears again.

thanks for advise
[HD2 General] rene.knight:
can happen if your using a foreign operator.. like i live in norway, but i use Tele2 wich is a swedish company (all theyr service numbers like WAP servers, sms sentral all that crapp are swedish numbers) and so the phone tells me its roaming.
[HD2 General] WhyBe:
Given the poor 3G coverage on T-Mobile in the US, why would two powerful phones such as the Nexus One and HD2 be relegated there? It is as if they are sabotoging themselves by being on T-Mob. (This paragraph was rhetorical).

My X1i is on it's last leg (screen blank in landscape and microphone not working) and I want to replace it. Currently, HD2 is the only thing that is appealing. I think I am going to hack one of the overseas models to work on 850MHz 3G on AT&T and forego waiting for the T-Mob model. Thanks XDA.

Hopefully, someone will make a step-by-step sticky on how to get the HD2 working on AT&T 3G USA.
[HD2 General] Spike15:
1. Hard-SPL

2. Flash custom ROM

3. Insert SIM

That's what I did to get it working on Telus' 850mhz 3G. I remember the dude who made the huge thread about being the first in the US with a T9193 saying it was similarly easy.

If you just put your AT&T SIM in, you'll be able to send/receive texts, and make calls, but Telstra has the data connection settings locked down pretty heavily in the stock ROM...
[HD2 General] WhyBe:
OK, yeah, I was just looking through some of that thread. I thought it said something about changing or not changing radios. Is this already taken care of inside the custom ROMs ?
[HD2 General] Spike15:
As far as I know you don't need to change the radio.

I didn't have to.
[HD2 General] WhyBe:
Great, thanks.

What type of price did you get? I see them from less than $700 to more than $900.
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
if your device doesnot 850 mhz you will not be able to use 3g in usa it is hardware not software
[HD2 General] WhyBe:
:confused:

Thanks, however, that wasn't the question. It was already answered above.

Thanks all
[HD2 General] harolds:
You need to make sure that the HD2 you buy has HSPA/WCDMA 850 MHz (not just GSM 850 MHz), because most do not.
[HD2 General] WhyBe:
Yes, based on what I am reading, getting the Telstra model with 850MHz 3G band should be compatible with 850MHz 3G AT&T in the U.S.

The designated-"U.S." model is designed for T-Mobile 3G (1700MHz or 2100MHz)
[HD2 General] Spike15:
I fixed that for you -- phones won't work on T-Mobile 3G without BOTH 1700 and 2100.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Mindaugaz:
Hello everyone, I have a problem with my HTC TYTN... When I'm trying to enable phone function it don't do anything and in fact I have only PDA without phone function :) Maybe you have some ideas how to fix this problem... Many thanks ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Marnux:
I had that problem once. At boot it showed a message telling there was an error with the radio. I wasn't able to format the radio and/or flash a new one, nor anything else i could find online.

So in the end i figured the chip or something was just broken. Turned it in to get it repaired, luckily warranty was still valid for 2 weeks. Got it back and has bin working great again.

I hope you can fix it yourself if it's out of warranty.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
Turn the Hermes off then on, DON'T use reset button on bottom, use power button and turn off phone. Reset button is for a warm boot, this doesn't dump the things in ram so if its an app thats causing the problem this won't fix it.

Turn back on and watch to see if it says "no GSM".

If it does then you're stuffed....
[HD2 General] essensial:
Hi guys, anyone know the way to overcome this?

How to upgrade to a higher ROM?

Even HTC's website won't let me downloading the ROM saying that the upgrade aren't for this device!!!

Please!

p.s. sorry I'm new to winmo...

regards!
[HD2 General] Grantzxr:
use a gold card in sd slot or just install HSPL first :)
[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
wtf is a gold card? i keep seeing people refer to it but never what it is, i imagine its a sim card with a toffee penny wrapper stuck to it lol
[HD2 General] Grantzxr:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=591314

Basicly its a sd card with its unique serial number run though some software but as its no longer free just use hspl if you dont have a goldcard.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Forget about the goldcard, you don't need one so long as you have a copy of the original rom available, which you do. Hunt it out in the official roms forum. First post, first link, 1.43 section, its listed there. Thats your backup, then instal hspl and you can flash what you like.
[HD2 General] yan2k:
Your HD2 is locked to o2 (UK) ROMs only so you cant put any of the official HTC ROMs or any of the custom ROMs from the "HD2 ROM Delvelopment" forum

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534

because of this your always be running out of date software as the phone operators are always so slow at releasing updates if they do at all.

BUT if you download HSPL from the above forum thread "[HSPL] HowTo flash everything"

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611433

and install it to your phone your then be able to put on any ROM you like. Don't worry its near impossible to muck anything up and you can always put the phone back to its original rom, just do a little reading if your still not sure.
[HD2 General] essensial:
Great Guys! HSPL helped!!! I've upgraded...shame I can't manage to download Rom 1.66 as it always crashes and the download in general is sooo slow (not the internet issue)...but maybe with a bit of patience I'll get it at the end! :)

Cheers once again!!!
[HD2 General] shutty2k3:
HTC have now listed a new ROM upgrade (1.72.206.3 released 27/04/10) for the HD2 on their UK support website (htc.com/uk)

Let me know how you get on with it as when I enter my o2 serial number I still get the error message you mentioned. I have sent a message to HTC support...just waiting for a reply.
[HD2 General] Grantzxr:
all you o2 guys that cant down load have been able to get 1.66 from htc's site for months now this rom is purley for the forgoton few (like me) who got the phone as o2 launched and locked down (no wifi router etc) I ran this rom for a day and it nice and snappy fast but its still not wm 6.5.3 so i am back on touch-x again now the 2.07 radio in the o2 rom was quite ok in my area when I used it a few months ago but the 2.10 in my opionion is a match for recption with better battery life just my 2 cents hope it may help some of you
[HD2 General] seeksol:
What about Virgin Mobile? Will they get a Rom Upgrqade???? they seems to have been left out of the loop even though they were the first (technically second) carrier of the phone.

I'm playing with Skype so I can take it to Afghanistan with me. I will primarily us my PC but really want to use my cell phone as well, this will be most helpful in airports and such where I don't want to pull out the computer.

My problem is Skype on Windows mobile you have to use a headset. Does anyone have experiance with this? I tried just using my iPod head set because it they were just laying there but still could not hear any sound. Is there a special set of headphone we need to use with the HTC Dongles or something along those lines? Do I need the headsets with microhone built in?Thanks a bunch!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] zex11:
you can use app named audioroute to forward the sound to your earphone so no need for headset
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] darfri:
And you can use Nimbuzz. It supports also skype and it routes it to the earpiece. And do not support neither taliban or western saviours, they're both wrong
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kusbainian:
never tried skype but i know that the plantronics voyager 855 is a bluetooth earpiece with mic.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Monfro:
Troca2

Troca2 is a simple exe that works very well, switching to earpiece voip/skype calls.

Run it, when it shows a white screen with at the bottom written OK, run voip/skype and make your calls.

When you finish your calls tap OK on that white screen, troca2.exe shut down and you can use your phone as always.

Download it:

[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
Has anybody had experience removing a screen scratch from their hd2?

i've only had mine for 5 days and its got a massive scratch on the screen, don't even know how it happened, i always keep my phones in a glasses baggy, my iphone is still mint after 18 months but today i was watching some youtube clips on my break and the screen was perfect, then put it on charge at work and when i came back to it it was really badly scratched, not sure if someone decided to have a look at it and dropped it while i wasn't there but needless to say i'm gutted, i was thinking of sending it back to o2 coz it has a few problems, random letters on typing and stuck messages, not sure if they'll accept it back even as faulty with this big scratch, any advice as to what o2 do with faulty phones? do they check them, bin them or fix them? it was bought over the phone btw, will they just write it off and send a new one because of the problems?

please help
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I think you will struggle to get it replaced under warranty with a fat scratch, even if it didn't work at all, let alone a few issues that are (apparently) solved by updates.

Do you have any cctv at work? I'd be spitting mad and hunting for the culprit!
[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
there is cctv but not in my department, and lots of people come in and out,

worst case scenario if o2 won't accept it back as faulty they'll just send it back as it is,

and if i'm lucky i'll get a replacement?
[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
just been giving the screen a rub with some t cut and it seems to be helping with most of the scratch, there is just a 5 mm part that is deeper than the rest, do you think that would affect an exchange?
[HD2 General] richie_jones:
Maybe, you`ve got nothing to lose.....
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Gotta be worth a try. Chances are they're only going to flash a new rom and ship it back anyway. Course, if you have insurance it COULD go missing....
[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
insurance is what my work mate said, any recomendations for someone cheap but with full cover?
[HD2 General] 4tune:
Just for the record, the random letters on typing and stuck messages thing probably won't be enough to get you a new device. These flaws are all over the place. HTC will tell you the 1.66 rom will solve those problems. And the 'not quite aligned screen' is also a thing that pops up here on a regular basis.

Hope you succeed.
[HD2 General] pkchips:
Hello guys, sorry for hijacking this thread, but I have a very similar problem except without the scratched screen. The details are over here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=627374

Basically, I sent it to HTC and it came back much worse than it was when I sent it to them. What can I do now? Send it back to HTC again or would O2 be better? Is there a way I can get a new phone?

Thx.
[HD2 General] elyl:
If you return it to O2, they'll courier out a new one and pick the "faulty" one up at the same time, so you would get a new phone straight away - they did this with my first HD2 which didn't recognise SIM cards.

What they do with the "faulty" one once it's couriered back is anyone's guess. You could be lucky and it just goes in a big faulty pile to be sent back to HTC. I would deny that it was scratched if they phone you up about it, but that's quite naughty.
[HD2 General] pkchips:
Awesome, thanks elyl :-).

My phone isn't scratched in the first place. Hope it works out for the original poster too.
[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
what department at o2 did you use to get a courier exchange , what did you ask for and what problem did your phone have so that they exchanged it, cheers
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
sometimes the couriers themselves check out the goods if you are returning faulty handsets that have supposedly have no physical damage. ive had this happen to me a few times with my business units.

i would send it back to O2 anyway... if you have only had the handset for five days, explain that the screen is not "perfect". Its all about how you word it on the return form. Put down your other issues also.

This way when the courier turns up with your new handset and checks the goods and the return form (IF he has one) he will have no choice but to oblige.
[HD2 General] azahoth:
Before I divulge this story I don't endorse this sort of thing.

My mate got the HD2 on an upgrade through O2, he sat on it within 24hrs and got a smudge on the screen, called them up and claimed there was a fault with the screen; which they then sent a brand new replacement. This promptly arrived and then by shear idiocy he managed to put it the through the washing machine the next day!

The device turns on but the back light has shorted, so you can see the GUI but only under strong light and it is basically unreadable. He will get insurance via O2 then claim next month saying he lost it. However the insurance does cost 10 pound a month; but still cheaper than 500...
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
hmmmmm....

shady

but lol :-)
[HD2 General] novaci:
Am I the only one who finds the people who break their phones and then try to weasel their way into a new, free handset annoying as hell?

My local HTC center used to offer courier exhanges for all HTC products, but not anymore. I called 'em up the other day to get my phone exchanged and they told me they no longer do it because people were abusing the service.
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
no... you are not the only one who finds unscrupulous antics extremely irritating.

however,... some of the stories i hear are so ridiculous that all you can do is laugh.
[HD2 General] stemoneymonkey:
the irony of it is, that when i ordered the phone it went through ok and the money came off my card, then i got a text a few hours after the order, saying they were out of stock, i rang a few days later to see when they expected fresh stock and the girl i spoke to re ordered it for me, 2 days later 2 phones arrived at my house delivered as one shipment, i could have sold one phone but being honest i rang o2 and explained they'd made a mistake, i sent one phone back the next morning,

my phone also has the landscape/portrait problems in internet explorer and calender apps, where if i open in portrait and switch to landscape the screen flicks back and forth fast until i pull the battery, i planned to send it for an exchange anyway as my mate who has one at work has none of my phones problems, its just my luck it got scratched

Am i right or?? Please answer
[Nexus One General] cypher21:
only google knows :)

IF there are separete roms for USA models and EU models, there might be a check, if that's the case, you will need to unlock it to allow it to flash a customrom

If there's only 1 version coming for the nexus one, then it might be available in an OTA update

Ok, but isint it the same hardware in the phone they also ship to asia and uk, then it shouldent matter which "official rom" you flash.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
You can sync through exchange server or through software such as My Phone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Medusar:
That, or you can use PPCPimBackup to write everything from your old phone to a single file, and then import that on your Topaz. It's just a matter of what you prefer, really. But I can really recommend PPCPimBackup, as it allows you to do much more.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:

Syncing the Touch Diamond 2 with Groupwise

I'm 57 and used to be considered a tech whiz. You guys make me feel like a septic tank pumper. (No slight intended to the Honey Dippers. It's an honest and necessary profession.) I've been reading XDA about 1/2 hour now and am flabbergasted by the expertise and savvy I see in this forum. Some of the old coots who worry about our next generation should read here a while

I have moved (with some help from XDA) from an HTC (cingular 8125) Wizard into an HTC Touch Diamond 2 I bought unlocked from Hong Kong. My latest problem is syncing with Groupwise at work. I was doing this on the wizard by using Groupwise PDA connect to translate from Microsoft Active Sync. I downloaded the latest Active Sync and installed it. It installed, and I can see the device, but I get an error, with support code 85010014. When I try to run PDA Connect it says it can't connect and asks me to be sure Active Sync is running. I am constrained by our I.T. department to using Groupwise.

Has anyone encountered this and found a fix for it? Remember, I'm old. You might have to spell it out a little.

Thanks a lot!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
First, I am not familiar with Groupwise, however go to Settings\USB to PC and see if "Select faster data sync" is checked, if so uncheck it and see if that resolves your issue. (It usually would be checked though)

Please clarify, you can connect through active sync (meaning you can access your device and see your files, programs, etc), but not Groupwise?

Also, searching on that error code in google produced many results, you may try a search and read, it seems the error is possibly related to your .pst in Outlook.
