My HD2 has been losing 3G signal and switching to Edge and I want to lock it to 3G. Is it possible on T-Mobile US with stock ROM? I looked in settings and couldn't find anything.

I was able to do this on my Samsung Blackjack 2 on ATT when I had these problems.

I would go to Adminsettings>Network & Call Settings>Network Mode>WCDMA.

There, I was able to choose between AUTO, GPRS, or WCDMA to lock the radio to 3G Worked great in areas where the radio was frequently switching between towers.

Anything similar for HD2?

Here's a screenshot
[HD2 General] VidMan:
Yes there is a way. Go to Phone> Options and scroll all the way down to Baseband.Now select WCDMA.

Really, if its winmo 6.5, it should be the same.

I would ask there, but I guess a generic WinMob. application is necessary.

Im running Sense on my Nexus One. Everything works fine apart from a anoying feature.

When I sync my facebook account (htc part) it grabs all the phone numbers of people on facebook. How can i stop that from happening? I just want the contacts that are stored on my google account.

If it's anything like the stock 2.1 rom, open up the Facebook app, hit the menu button, select Settings. Scroll to the bottom of the list and then select "Sync Contacts" and pick a different option.

whats goin on my fellow hackers?..

Im trying to flash on all of the above ROMs from their websites.. oin all the .nbh file is corrupt upon extraction.. or extracts and then gives error code 270 as the reason for incomplete instal

what cud the cause of this be?

I've used on vista an XP with no avail as well as MAC Parallel Desktop...

Help me guys. if u can

thanks... :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mac.uni:
Since you are the first one posting this, it should be possible in general.

Naming the OS is a good start. But what packer do you use? What browser?

Energy ROM works with 7zip Codec.

Personally I use winrar. You could try this or the 7zip own program.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mutantblack:
you don't really need to open a thread just for this. I use NRG, Cell series and every one of them open up for me. If you can't open it check your download was good. Then extract them with winrar or 7zip. Check the filename...if you see any % signs around the file name, you have to take those out. etc...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wildfxp:
One thing I do is just try a different computer
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Psih4x:
Make sure you have the right .NET framework installed for windows. The wrong version will cause a corrupted file on extraction. I have had no problems with 3.5... found here:

Also - disable any anti-virus software you may be using. Mcafee will often block the CustomRUU file from running correctly for whatever reason.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] T_TP2:
I've had similar problems, it turns out my anti virus (AVG) was blocking the customRUU, adding it to exceptions solved the issue. Only do this, however, if you're sure you haven't downloaded a virus/trojan!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Rottgrub:
You could always install the Diamond HardSPL and then install a custom ROM of your choice until you can find the official ROM you need. Just be sure you have a GSM diamond before trying to update the HardSPL or you could brick it for real.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rodrigo.nery:
Sure but all Hard-SPL I try to not leave 0%.

Can you suggest some for me to try? No problem installing the hard-spl without synchronizing the active sync, because my phone does not synchronize. Just enter bootloader mode ...
[HD2 General] SMS92:
Afternoon XDA!

I plan on a bit of a rom flashing marathon on my phone this next week to see what else is out there and perhaps even teach myself a thing or two.

My question is - which application is best for backing up my contact and SMS (and perhaps shortcut) data for the HD2? On older devices I've used PIM backup to take care of contacts and messages, but with the HD2's Facebook integration will this method work? I'd ideally not have to link everyone back up with their profiles after flashing.

I've heard that SPB backup may have issues if restoring from one rom to another so not sure how well it'd work.

What's your recommendation?

Thanks :):D
[HD2 General] struong75:
Hi there,

Spb backup works great for me. Had tried some others but have been using spb backup 2.0 since my Touch HD. Never had any problem.

HTH,

I'm more than happy using MS myphone - backs itself up each night so I don't have to think about it. 200MB of storage, can even do pics and vids.
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
Hi, I use Myphone and Googlesync for my backups. Additionaly installed apps are on my PC or my Marketplace or PocketPCfreeware accounts and my data is on my SD card and PC. I think one of the problems people have experienced when they use full backup programs is if they accidently restore the registery from their old configuration over their shiny new system. Oh and one of my friends lost all his Footprints when he flashed without exporting them to his SD card (using the Export feature of Footprints).

Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] simeezee:
How do you use google sync on the hd2? is there an app that I have to download?
[HD2 General] kendimce:
Spb backup works great for me too!
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
Hi, Googlesync involves configuring an Exchange server at the address m.google.com in ActiveSync on your phone. It will then treat your GMail as an Exchange Server and you will have options on what to sync. Here is the info at Google: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299. 2 key points noted by Google; Back up Calender and contacts first (I suggest MyPhone) and don't try and sync tasks.

Regards.
[HD2 General] alex fung:
But using export, you have to do it one by one. Is there a way to export all the footprints?

I found that it is easier just to restore the footprint folder content and all my stuff is back.

By the way, I just learnt that HD2 came bundled with Sprite Backup! At least in the HK versions. I don't know why HTC hasn't talked about it anywhere. It is sitting on my SD card and I never knew that it was there.
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
Yes, you can restore the foorptints folder, if you have backed it up to start with. That hadn't occurred to my friend ;)
[HD2 General] undacova786:
Good stuff

I want to back up my HD2 (full backup). Any software that works to restore everything as it was, e.g. contacts, sms, email account, facebook links with contacts, cab files, quicklinks etc?
[HD2 General] XiDiX:
Just make sure to copy all the files on your phone to a backup location :D

Or try PIM Backup: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=299705
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:

[HD2 General] traithudo:
SPB backup is the best, for me.
[HD2 General] pa49:
All full backup apps can have attendant problems if used from one flash ROM to another (ie not just a reflash of the same ROM).

They carry over file associations, registry settings etc and I believe contribute to instability issues.

So be aware and use them at your own risk.

For everything else (PIM, texts, browser favourites etc) MyPhone is sweet.
[HD2 General] bartveld:
SPB Backup has an option to restore after a ROM upgrade. Though this doesn't work flawlessly (e.g. not all shortcuts were retrieved and had to be created manually) it does do the important things.
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
I have always used SPB Backup, never had an issue.
[HD2 General] acky85:
I use Microsoft Myphone. I dont get what the issue with it is. I dont both backing up texts as last time I did it was boring waiting for 4000 texts to restore back to the phone. I store all pics/music on my memory card so its only a case of contacts, bookmarks, calendar etc. All my FB links seems to magically reappear as well. I think this might be something to do with the Facebook tab though. *Credit to who ever built it*
[HD2 General] dukins:
I know im a newb. But how do you restore from my phone. Im new to windows mobile. I lost all contacts, calendar entries, etc. I saved to microsoft my phone, but how to restore? Also backed up to a few other outlets but cant figure out howto restore any of them. LOL :o
[HD2 General] dio62000:
Sprite Backup for me. http://www.spritesoftware.com/

It's perfect, backups anything you want, including SD card. Using this with my Samsung Omnia sometimes gave an error in the report (although it didn't have effect on installing my backup!) but with the HD2 it doesn't even give this error. Backing up is easy, just set preferences and run it! The backup is an exe-file that you run from your device or SD card after you've done a hard reset. It basically saved my life several times after having to do hard resets!
[HD2 General] pa49:
We are all so pleased for you.

However, many people have other experiences and as any negatives are worth pointing out, especially to those new to this topic and who will then return with any problems that ensue, it can never be over stated.

[HD2 General] piattj:
spb backup

Well, based on earlier recommends, I bought spb backup. It works for me. Does the stuff I want (eg backs up settings, system data etc) that are a pain to re-key.

I've not tried other software but haven't needed to. Aren't I lucky. :)
[HD2 General] pa49:
Not really lucky.

You simply have a before and after ROM setup that works with SPB.

I doesn't always go that way.
[HD2 General] vponomarev:
+1 for SPB Backup
[HD2 General] asctony:
I have used SPB Backup for years on MDA, Wing, Omnia and will use it on the HD2 when I get one. Never had a problem with SPB Backup.
[HD2 General] rexboy:
I used SPB for a while, it worked great but recently had problems when my backup neared the 100mb size, it produced errors in regards to the size (cant remember the exact msg), through a recommendation from another XDA member, now using Resco backup and it works a treat.

You can even just modify a backup file as it searches for onl changes rather than do a entire new backup again.

Easy to use as well.

Pimbackup also great in terms of backing up contacts, appointments, calls, sms's etc.
[HD2 General] Reignzone:
Top THREE Choices?

So, if I had to ask...

What are the TOP THREE contenders in everyone's opinion?

I'm considering purchasing SPB... but then again, from what I'm told the Microsoft My Phone service isn't half bad.

Are there other services from third-parties that should have attention brought to them?
[HD2 General] richsark:
HI,

If I am testing different ROM's from various Dev, do I need to do anything to my HD2 before installing another ROM? or when you install a ROM, it essentially cleans it anyway??

Just wondering ....
[HD2 General] OrionBG:
A new rom is supposed to clean the old one BUT in reality it doesn't! You will have to do a Hard Reset every time you install a ROM and additionaly task29 with MTTY will be a good idea before you flash the new ROM!
[HD2 General] richsark:

[HD2 General] samsamuel:
it includes a radio rom image(it needs a rom of one kind or another present to work). remove the .nbh file that comes with it and replace with a radio that you know works on your device and it will work.

or you could replace the radio nbh with a splash screen nbh which means the process runs faster and you don't have to keep track of what radio you are using

Thanks for everyones time!
[HD2 General] chrisrj28:
Hello friend, I understand what it's like coming into a tech heavy phone like the HD2 and then trying to comprehend stuff on this site. It get easier over time, just keep reading.

Anyway in answer to your question downloading apps is easy. For your computer you just have to find the apps you want, whether it be here or other sites. Select the app you want and download it. The majority of winmo apps are .cab files. If you download a .zip then extract the .cab from inside it.

Copy the .cab file to your sdcard or phone memory whichever you prefer, then using file explorer just navigate to the app, select it and install. Most apps ask if you want to install to phone memory or sdcard, whichever you prefer. All done!

For downloading on your phone it's the same concept, find the app, download it to your sdcard or internal memory and then use file explorer to install.

Good luck
[HD2 General] sonluvruni:
thanks alot chris! I will defiantly try this out........one more quick question if you dont mind....is that when i put the .cab file onto my sd card or phone does it need to be in a certain folder?........thanks again!

Can anyone help??

I've had my leo for a while now and I love the phone with one major exception.....

Sometimes when I call a contact nothing happens then after an eternity, 2minutes, the call is placed. I have good network connection and have tried it with and without 3G.

When this error is present I also get a problem whereby I can't hang up.

This seems to be a software problem. I'm on the T-mobile network in the UK. Does anyone else have the same problem?

I couldn't find anything on the forums. I've tried stripping programs/software off and have tried both hard and soft resets. The problem appeared to go away after a hard reset but then appear again weeks later for no apparent reason.

I have the original ROM version (1.43.110.2) and no significant mod's apart from Cookie home screen tabs and a few simple registry tweaks.

Any help guys, I'm contemplating taking the phone back but will I just end up with a reconditioned model? Mine's in mint condition and I don't want to end up with some banged up phone.
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
Hi, Did the phone work before the reg tweaks and software installation? A new T-Mobile UK ROM was published on the 15th, it might be an idea for you to flash your phone, test it then tweak, if it doesn't work after you flash it then speak to T-Mobile. If it workls after you flash it but not after you tweak then there's your problem ;) Here is the link to HTC's UK web site with the download. I'd guess that T-Mobile will have a link on their support site for it too, somewhere: http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2.

Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] dailydriver:
Mine does the same thing. Also mine also freezes when I get incoming calls. After I talk to the other person, I can't hang up. It's frozen. I have to hit the reset button on the back or take out the batter. I have two HD2's T-Mobile US Versions on release day.

I did do some HD2 tweaks to turn on the LED when I get messages though.

I'm going to reset both devices and see what happens. Maybe the old softwares don't work on the HD2 even though it's for WinMo 6.5.

I really hope it work, because I hate to return the unit. It's a beautiful hardware.
[HD2 General] Dingadogg:
Thanks CMMY, I'll try installing the new ROM as soon as I get a chance.

I didn't have the problem before installing software/tweaks; but then again it was only probably a couple of days before I played around with it. After I did a hard reset and reinstalled some software it was working fine for at least a week before the problem re-occured, which seemed quite strange. Today the phone is working fine but will undoubtedly return, the fault seems entirely intermittent.

Daily driver: I also have the same problem when recieving calls. I'll let you know how I get on.
[HD2 General] umuhtyler:
Same problem here, my phone is 3 days old and I have to remove the battery to end most calls, did a master reset and thought that fixed it. Couple hours later it was back at it. I'm using a tmobile hd2. This seems to be a very common problem, hope they come out with a patch soon..

Hi

Did you find a solution to this problem?

I'm using GSM HD2 Europe.

This problem start occurring after a while when I was using 29 Aug Energy rom.

After a reset the phone work ok for few hours.

When to problem start, the send physical button does not work.

if I want to make a call I must use the "phone" from the start menu.

When I try to end the call, the phone software stop responding, but the operation system keeps working.

In order to end the call I must remove the battery.

I when back to the original rom 1.66 from HTC site.

the problem still exist but less frequently.

(by the way the original rom work much slower then the energy custom rom.)

I’m wasting so much time on this phone, and I’m on the verge of giving up .

I will be happy to get some help.

If you do not have BsB tweaks, but used tweak #44 in "Leo's tips and tweaks", this can cause problems for some.
[HD2 General] ironsf:
can't hangup

I found the reason for this problem. (at least for the specific problem I had)

I'm using resco keyboard.

if I leave the Caps lock on after using the keyboard, then the "Send" HW button does not work, and you can't hangup calls.

by opening the keyboard again and releasing the caps lock the all work fine again.
[HD2 General] bbrancco:
I've also had this problem... Made me consider selling this otherwise great HD2, sometimes even running it over with a car :mad:

When I want to make a call, phone just won't dial - it freezes, but everything else works fine (only "phone app" freezes). So, I give up the call. Few minutes later, it unfreezes, and phone starts calling. Usually, from my pocket. Also, after a call, I can't hang up. I often ended up with removing the battery.

I tried everything...

Restarting the phone makes everything ok, but only for a few minutes.

Installing different app, tweaks, etc - nothing.

Removing everything and returning the phone to factory settings - nothing.

Then, I remembered to disable Sense. That was it. I have used the phone without Sense for months, and it didn't happen. Not even ONCE!

Can anybody here do anything with this?

I still want to use Sense because it looks awsome, way better than Windows interface...
