Help please????

I've got my T9193 last night and I'm trying to get it going as it should.

I read all the messages in this thread the last few days and scribbled notes as I went since I knew that I won't be able to find the pertinent info when I need it.

Well scribbling proved useless since I haven't been able to find what I need and I don't think I can go from page 1 again.

So if someone can point me to a step by step link or hold my hand as I do this I'll really appreciate it.

I'm a total noob in this so I need detailed info on how to do it.

I went to Bepe's HSPL page and read on it but when I try to flash HSPL on my phone I get and error message.

My phone came with Telstra software and this SPL:

PB81110 HX-BC

SPL-1.66.0000 XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40

According to what I found for that SPL I should use HSPL2 (I tried the HSPL too and didn't work either)

With HSPL2 the phone goes to the 3 color screen but on the PC I get:

CRTICAL ERROR

Flow: 00000003

Error Code:00000004

Description: Bad model ID

Can somebody point me on the right direction???

Thanks in advance,

Fernando
[HD2 General] 2udCrRAZdK:
Thanks chn110, that told me what I needed to know. The UARFCN it is using is 412, which per the table is Frequency band 1900. (Bummer, wish I'd of done this before I bought the phone :( )
[HD2 General] ferincr:
Hi again,

I manged to do it.

So I'm with HSPL and the original telstra rom now and looking for which would it be the best rom & radio to flash into it.

[HD2 General] ferincr:
Ok I got a Miri rom in it last night and worked for abit an then it got stiff in the white HTC screen so this morning I flashed the 2.10 radio and so far it still works but we'll see...

Has anybody found a solution to the SMS Sent Notifications yet?

I've tried the registry entry and the .cab file listed in this thread, but I'm still getting these VERY annoying confirmations!

T9193 for $543 new?

Was looking for a t9193 myself and I came upon it for a very low price (for new) on this site. Has anyone bought this yet?

http://www.cell2get.com/tmobile-htc-hd2-phone-wm-65-16gb-gsm-unlocked-p-1630.html

The site says tmobile and t9193 but from what I've read to the tmobile model is 8585(they also offer this version on the site)?

They also have a described telstra version t9193 here: http://www.cell2get.com/htc-hd2-t9193-telstra-unlocked-works-with-att-3g-p-1629.html

I'm not to sure about this but it looks like both of these phones have the same specifications and should both work on at&t 3G. Too good to be true? Anyone know if it's a slip up?

I don't know if this is a model number mix up, or a damn good deal.
[HD2 General] waichai:
yes they mix up, the first link you post is T-mobile version unlocked (T8585), this will NOT work on AT&T 3G network.

Second link you post is true Telstra HD2 T9193, which will work on AT&T 3G network.

I never see any HD2 T9193 less $600.
[HD2 General] KaH_ACT:
HSPL2 does NOT work with T9193!!
[HD2 General] KaH_ACT:
See my signature, I think this is a great way to go. OzRom is continually improving and works really well. At least worth a try. Any issues you have will be given support to resolve and "bugs" are attended to quickly.

and Scotty has not even paid me to say this :cool::);)
[HD2 General] lantern20:
The original HSPL works with the T9193.
[HD2 General] johnboatcat:
I never see any HD2 T9193 less $600.

Someone must have heard you as they just posted one on ebay for $596.31, factory sealed, buy it now!
[HD2 General] Boy SureFire:
I'm having the pink hue problem, & the phone says it's the T8585 model not the T9193. I got mine @ mobileplanet where it's clearly marked "HTC HD2 T9193," & the box is marked as being the T9193. The phone didn't come with any bloatware, & I've read that using the 8585 rom will change the model listed in the phone identity section. Err the seal on phone box was broken when I got it, everything was in there including the Australian wall charger...I just checked the phone, & The UMTS bands are listed as 900/2100 Did I get screwed:confused: or is this rom related?

Edit: The phone back has the "Next G Network," & the Telstra "T" emblem... Now I'm really confused.
[HD2 General] friend'scatdied:
It is definitely the T9193.
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
ROM-details, definitely a 9193.
[HD2 General] argentocruz:
My T9193 is working great on the stock delivered telstra rom... Is it worth updating the rom or does the update come with its own issues?
[HD2 General] Worpor:
Im running HSPL2 On my 9193 Purchaed 2 weeks ago. Down grade to one of the previous versions of the Telstra rom and off you go.
[HD2 General] KaH_ACT:
Tried that and could only get hspl to work - techos on OzROM thread sem to confirm this, you may have been lucky!
[HD2 General] KaH_ACT:
Each ROM has its own issues, there does not seem to be a great deal of information available about the telstra rom.
[HD2 General] Boy SureFire:
Thanks friend's catdied & mazzarin...I'm Uber new to this, & haven't done anything to the phone yet except for moving some files to get things working. Errr some of the folks over on EDC forums are starting to feel phone envy, & my Iphone wielding mates can't seem stop wanting to look/touching :D

I'm not having good luck trying to find out how to fix the pink eye, so if anyone knows please let me in on it.
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
I don't believe the pink hue is an issue with the newer-models of the phones. However, I may just be forgetful. Have you tried upgrading your ROM?
[HD2 General] lengjai:
if i want to flash a new radio do i have to delete the rom first?
[HD2 General] freakflow:
I've been getting an issue where the other side cannot hear me when I answer their call for the first 5 or 10 seconds. So I end up having to say "Hello" 4-5 times before they can hear me. I"m thinking maybe it's because I'm using a t9193 on Rogers in Canada?

I've had this issue using the Energy Rom with TMO radios, so then I switched over to Dutty's rom with a Telstra radio (2.07), which seemed to work but the battery drained pretty fast...so I switched to another telstra rom (2.09) and the problem came back.

Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me?
[HD2 General] ryuu55:
FYI... HSPL2 now works on T9193 HD2's

I just got HSPL1.66 on my Telstra HD2

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6874965#post6874965
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Does HSPL2 make a difference in any way? Running 6.5.5 NRG GTX roms if that matters.
[HD2 General] ryuu55:
When I was using the Artemis ROMs by Sternas, it was suggested that HSPL 1.66 or higher would help with my HD2 freezing up during a call. I am currently using NRG's latest (19-JUN) ROM w/ CHT. I'll try Artemis's ROM again and see if I am having the same hangups.

The main thing for me is we now have the choice of HSPL with the Telstra HD2s to see what works best for us.

Everyone's experience will vary because of location, carrier, radio, ROM; and now we can experiment with the HSPL.
[HD2 General] SubsonicSounds:

No offense, but I wouldn't like GTX either with those wallpapers... they are quite horrid. Stick with the default or switch to white / off-white wallpapers.
[HD2 General] Agoattamer:
Try this build for android. Best out there that I know of so far.

Bac to the forums.. been awhile...

Hi all,

I remember reading many posts from kevinirvine and agoattamer and I ended up getting a T9193 HTC HD2 in late February to mid-March timeframe.

I have an HD2 T92193 setup as followed. I think I dhould consider rom/radio upgrades, and I read alot of

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=620926&page=46

for guidance, but this is newer--looking to upgrade:

Current:

hspl installed

Dutty's HD Ultimate V1.2 WWE

Radio=2.08.50.08_2

Rom date is 17/03/10

This gets 576 mb Ram size and works generally well--any recommendations?

Can I just upgrade the radio separately? Thx -Jonathan
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Yes, you can upgrade the radio seperately. Stick with the 2.xx.50.xx radios for optimal compatibility.
[HD2 General] stumped:
i'm curious about this too... i just loaded the lastest telstra ROM (temporarily til my fav ROM is fixed up again) and i can't get rid of the sms notification. the DisableSMSSuccess reg file isn't in where it's supposed to be, and even tried creating it - no joy. no success with the cab that i posted ages ago either...

***edit***

found a fix that worked for me, stolen from here who stole it from here. i just wish i could read dutch :D

3G

Just curious, are any AT&T users actually getting 3G? I have read that the T9193 model of the HD2 is supposed to work on the 850 band but I have yet to get 3G. Any thoughts, suggestions, ROMS, radios?
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Yep, works fine for me. You might just be in an unlucky city, where are you located?
[HD2 General] black_mobility:
I am in NC. I have no problems with getting 3G on my Touch Pro 2 so I would assume the problem is not my location. I could be wrong tho.
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Well I said city but no worries.

TouchPro2 was offered on ATT if I'm not mistaken, so it would be BOTH 3g 850/1900 capable.

First, verify you have a 9193 (T, NextG logo on the lower back)

Second, verify that 3G is turned on (should be by default, different in every rom, but as long as you're running a custom ROM it's usually in comm mgr. It is for NRG.)

Otherwise... just wait unfortunately. ATT is supposed to be pushing all 850 by the end of the year, though I haven't heard any recent updates on that. Their NYC 3G expansion was all 850.
[HD2 General] willshd2:
ROM version:1.72.841.0 Telstra 9193 Prepaid.

The default Network Connection is "Telstra Internet" (telstra.internet).

- Connecting to email accounts uses this Network Connection by default, so when connected via Wifi, Wifi is ignored and email is still downloaded via 3G/H-Telstra Internet and counts against my data quota.

- Changed my E-mail Setup to use Network Connection "The Internet".

So now i can download email via Wifi. However if Wifi is unavailable or switched off the connection just fails, ie. emails cannot be downloaded via 3G/H.

-As a work around i created a new Connection "Telstra2" (telstra.internet).

Now I can download email via Wifi without 3G/H or if Wifi is unavailable it uses 3G/H.

HOWEVER, now i cannot access Telstra's home page via wap.telstra.com/wap?entry=tsmbiz via 3G/H, it doesn't load using "Telstra2".

This is the default page where Telstra recognizes your account details so you can view account balance etc. and because you are recognized as a Telstra Mobile customer doesn't count unmetered sites against your data quota.

I can navigate directly to m.bigpond.com etc, but i'm being charge data fees.

Is this normal behavour by the phone, should i not be able to connect to email via both wifi and 3g?
[HD2 General] black_mobility:
I indeed have the T9193 Model. I am in Raleigh, NC and have all the above mentioned settings enabled. Like you said, guess i will have to wait....thanks for your assistance kind sir.
[HD2 General] keiri:
Hey Black,

I'm in Fayetteville, NC using a T9193 and the problem you're encountering is that in the North Carolina and South Carolina at&t only has licenses for 1900 - that's what our 3G runs on. On a recent trip to Atlanta and another trip to Florida I had HSDPA the whole time as both of these areas have at&t 3G on the 850MHz frequency - so it's not your phone; it's the network.

Cheers.

Thanks for that tidbit....I have been going crazy trying to adjust my settings. Using Edge is not so bad but I have noticed using WiFi is much faster. Thanks again!

Hi guys,

Having some problems trying to get back to factory SPL. I have done so much reading today but no luck.

My Telstra T9193 had:

SPL 1.42

Rom: _HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_Telstra_WWE_1.72.841.0_Radio_CRC_Signe d_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship(2).exe

I have got the Rom and Radio back on there but cannot get the SPL back to SPL 1.42.0000.

I have tried placing the extracted RUU_signed.nbh (renamed to LEOIMG.nbh) on the SD card (16Gb that came with phone) and done the Power on into boot loader (Vol Down turn on) but it will not run the file. It only flashes the loading screen for 1 sec then back to the tricolor screen.

Currently have SPL 2.08 HSPL on there. Have also tried with 2.08.0000 and 1.42.HSPL with no luck.

Anyone able to help please?
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Try installing HSPL3, it should give you the option to go back to stock.

ive been using the Telstra HD2:for a while now on ATT in SE Michigan. HSDPA/3G works great. i did check however first by using an iphone in debug mode to make sure my area was 850. the iphone debug way was the only easy way i could find to find out. if u have access to an iphone do a google search for iphone debug mode and there is a way to tell what band u are connected to. also tried many roms but htc official 1.66 with radio2.10.50.x has been the most stable with best reception by far.

Battery Life

Hi everyone

I have had some interesting 'events' with my phone this last week.

I had minimual use of phone, maybe some sms, it was in locked mode, no wifi, no data on, it went practically went flat in 6 hours whilst it sat on my desk at work. I checked the task manager, nothing was running and had full 3G reception.

The day after, I was on and off it most of the morning at work, still had 70% battery life left at the end of the day (again no wifi, no data, full 3G).

Anyone had anything happen like this? I have noticed it doing it again and looked at the current draw and it was close to 100mA with the screen off.

If anyone has any tips, I would appreciate it - I do lots of travel so planning phone recharges is becoming as important as hotels close to good bars!

Hi, so the ozRom works a treat on Telstra network? I have heavily moded the Telstra Stock rom & love it (after mods) and it does give me awesome reception/3G so I'm not keen to blow it away for kicks. But I really want to run Ubuntu & Android too?

Also what if I keep the ROM & just flash teh Radio with 2_11_50_20 ???

missing 850 gsm band for Rogers

Hi I recently flashed to EnergyROM with 2.07 radio. It seems that when I go to "Band" Settings and click in the "Select your GSM/UMTS band" section in my phone settings, I cant seem to find Gsm (850)...anyone have any ideas. All I see is"

- Gsm(900+1800)+UMTS(2100)

- Gsm(1900)+UMTS(850)

- GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(850+2100)

- GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(850)

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] the_scotsman:
Don't worry, the band settings are in the hardware, these won't affect your actual phone.

But if you want them back to how they should be, install this cab :)

hey guys,

i was using ozrom but have had some sms issues so have flashed back to stock telstra rom, however during the process of going to ozrom i flashed to a new radio. the issue i now have is that wireless is disabled, and i cannot enable it.

hey,

by luck i managed to get it working using a 2.10.50 radio :)

No problems. Just look at the rating of the seller. Look at the latest comments the seller has and use PayPal. I use my credit card through PayPal so I get double coverage to try and solve a problem if it ever happens.

I had to reset my phone to factory defaults because of this.

Thanks!! :( :(

For those who want to install it.

Remove your Windows deblock password.

Because the frigging program cannot work with it.
[HD2 General] Agoattamer:
Your password becomes defunct because the model of your phone changes to the T-mobile Leo for the US version. That is the only way the cracker could get swype to work. And this is a very bad fix.

If you want a version of swype that doesn't change your phone's ID and won't cause you to hard reset if you have a password installed, look for swype versions by Lord Yuz. I have tried his latest 2 versions and they don't lock your phone, lose your router password, lose your email info, or lose any other passwords for applications.

The swype versions with blackbird fix in the title are the versions that change your phone's ID. Stay away from them and only use versions by Lord Yuz.
[HD2 General] jrchester:
I posted a message in xda a few days ago asking about the t9193 and had

several questions about this device that you've just answered.

I wanted to know if it was exactly the same as what HTC sells (via their

OnTheGo Solutions website) as the "HTC Touch HD2 US" - at there

htcphones website under /product.asp?itemMDL=HTC_TOUCH_HD_2_NAM

I believe it may be the same - or did HTC add some extra value by removing

the Telstra bloatware as they seem to imply in their advertisment.

They have it available and in stock - and it might be worth the $829.99.

I have seen it at negrielectronics (web site you had referenced) for

$739.50 but I suspect it's the Telstra version (with all the Telstra apps, etc. that I don't want). Of course I can flash the ROM and remove the crap -

but I'd rather have HTC do that for me to begin with - so I'm starting

with a clean slate phone.

Any info would be greatly apprecriated.

I really want this phone (bad)!! It looks awesome and it is everything I want

in a phone (and then some).

thanks in advance - John
[HD2 General] teddmf:
The US version HTC sells I think would be T-Mobile US, not the same as T9193. I bought my T9193 through negri and it is a Telstra ROM loaded on it. You won't find the T9193 available (i.e. w/o Telstra ROM) for US anywhere.
[HD2 General] jrchester:
I respectfully disagree and believe you are in-fact mistaken.

Take a closer look at the HTC website and in particular their "flagship"

product for the Unlocked US and International Version which they call

" The HTC HD2 US: An On The Go Solutions Exclusive

Unlocked GSM, US & International 3G (850/2100Mhz) ".

This particular phone is NOT sold in the US - but directly from HTC.

Anyway HTC does not call this phone the T9193 (by name), but that

is exactly what this phone is. It's your Telstra version T9193 phone

but with the Telstra ROM and Telstra bloatware crap and apps all stripped

out to start with. Hence the slightly higher cost - which to me is worth

the extra price. HTC has added value (IMO) to the base T9193 phone

above what you've already purchased from the Australian market.

This phone is NOT the less expensive US market version TMobile phone

(CDMA Band). This phone is not "sold in the US" either as you've said.

This premium phone (T9193 + HTC mods) DOES support ATT with their

3G Band at 850 MHz. Check out the specs directly from HTC and their

internet throughput measurements of this phone on the ATT data network

(not just GSM either -direct 3G at 850 MHz).

I was looking for confirmation from an expert on this site - but

apparently I've answered my own questions.

I would apprecriate any "extra" information on this phone.

It's apparently so new that little information is available on it

right now, but HTC is rightly calling this phone their "flagship"

product. It certainly fits that description for me.

Thanks for your thread on the T9193. I apprecriate the info and

this great phone. I will most likely buy this phone directly from HTC

since I like what they are selling.

R / - John
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
That phone isn't sold "directly from HTC", it's sold from a reseller who imported a whole lot of them from Australia, cracked it open, and wiped it with HSPL2 and a custom ROM. It even says so right on the product page "Starting off with an HD2 Telstra , we remove the Telstra ROM, and install the pure HTC HD2 ROM."

Emphasis on the "we"

Not trying to insult you, just want you to be aware.

Worst place to buy your phone is

Ditto on both of those. Add Negri Electronics to that list too! Negri has to have the most rude and worthless customer service in the industry. I guess it's too difficult to run a mega-warehouse multi-warehouse Paper Tiger Empire out of his Apartment at 729 W 16th Street in Costa Mesa California.

I think the X121 he cites in his 888 phone number is the bathroom extension at his apartment or his Blackberry 9700, not sure which.:D
