Damage may already be aware of this cause but i thought it was interesting as the cause of the backlight issue had never really been discussed in depth just the fact that it functions randomly. As i had just reassembled my Hero after cleaning the trackball i realized something when i turned off the light to see how bright my newly cleaned trackball was and i noticed the keys backlight came on when i turned off the lights! So i retested to make sure it wasn't a coincidence and sure enough lights go out, keys backlight comes on and stays on like normal while touching the screen. On 1.5 the keys backlight would come on regardless of the level of light around u. So somehow in these new 2.1 roms the backlight for the keys is linked to the light sensor. As for the trackball that's a completely different story.

That is kind of a cool idea. If that is how it works on the official update.

hi all, have a rogers htc dream, ive been told it is rooted, and i have android 2.1 open eclair on it, but it says it is a t-mobile version. would this affect the phones ability to connect to rogers' 3g network? any help is greatly appreciated...

You need to set the apn configurations.I dont beleave you can set it by default. For this you need to download an app called APNdroid which allows you to set the configuation and find the correct internet configurations for Rogers and apply.

I am running DamageControl 2.0vr2 and cannot seem to set up my AKO account, that's my military account. It worked when I was running the 1.5's such as Fresh 1.1 and such. Anyone have any idea how I get the DOD certs onto my phone and if that will indeed help? Thanks.

PS I searched!
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
man, are you talking about your CAC certs? I honestly haven't tried to log in to my account from my phone. Hell it's a pain enough to try and get it working right from home.
[Hero CDMA General] morbidpete:
Dont think you will get the cert on the phone. I log into my AKO all the time via DC v1. Have not tried it with v2. i just get the accept cert thing then continue in with username stupid password and moronic questions

they make a bluetooth CAC reader! think its only for WinMo stuff tho
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
ahh the webcerts, hrmm, haven't tried to be honest

might work on my Legend port let me check.

Here's a beta of my ZenDroid rom I'm working on, it works on it. It's 2.1 w/Sense.

[Hero CDMA General] DanWalker:
Well when I was running 1.5 I just had my AKO account set up through the e-mail app and it worked just fine, I never had to log into the actual site. Now I cannot get the imap settings to work at all. I was thinking maybe if I had the certs on the phone running 2.1 it would work. Just a PITA. Thanks though, and if anyone else finds a solution lemme know!
[Hero CDMA General] morbidpete:
I didnt even know you could set it up via imap. Ill have to look into that. Just an idea. maybe setup outlook on a desktop to pull via IMAP. Have it check for mail every 5 mins or something and forward to another address automatically and have your phone check that address. Ugly. yes. but could work
[Hero CDMA General] DanWalker:
Anyone having any luck yet?
[Hero CDMA General] apatcas:
send me a copy. i'll try...:p
[Hero CDMA General] DanWalker:
copy of what lol? I'm trying to get the certs saved on the phone.
[Hero CDMA General] jvermillion:
What settings are you using?

IMAP server is imap.us.army.mil

should work ok...
[Hero CDMA General] morbidpete:
worked for me,

and for outgoing

click next it should check settings if everything is set

goto outgoing settingserver

how are you setting it up, just going to email and adding it there? it hangs everytime.

[HD2 General] reubenbubu:
I just tried to flash a new ROM by putting it on SD CARD...

i pressed my volume up key and power button for 3 seconds and now my phone is stuck on the HTC logo screen...

it did even go in the HSPL screen

whatever i do it reboots and gets stuck to that screen...

pressing the red button at the back made no difference

what can i do ?
[HD2 General] www.golazo.ca:
I have the same problem. The phone is stuck on HTC logo screen and is not seen by the computer so I cannot reflash. Any idea what can be done???? Mine got stuck after I installed task 29
[HD2 General] v-b-n:
(1) Take out the battery / Unplug the phone

(2) Put the battery back in

(3) Turn it on and keep only Vol Down pressed

You should get a tri-color screen. Connect USB. Once it says USB at bottom, you are good to go with flashing.
[HD2 General] relic:
these solutions don't work. I had the same problem. Anyone has an idea?

enter boot loader n flash a new rom via sd card?
[HD2 General] t45o5:
already done that... same problem... anything else?
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
put phone into bootloader requires you to press volume DOWN while power resetting the phone. Make sure the ROM is named LEOIMG.nbh and is on the root of the sd card. Make sure the sd card is 8gb or smaller unless it is a class6.

you need to put your phone back into bootloader, volume down while powering on the phone. then after you see the tricolored screen, connect it to the usb.

what problem are you having exactly???? you haven't told us any details to help you. :(
[HD2 General] firebroker:

[HD2 General] firebroker:

[HD2 General] alexsql:
Having my TMOUS HD2 bricked by using Task 29 and 2.09.51 radio, thus losing the warranty, how much does it cost to have it repaired by HTC? Do they even accept them for repair?
[HD2 General] Yom:
Does it even boot to the tri-color bootloader screen? If so, you can fix it (I think). If it is indeed dead, there are some posts describing brief, furtive encounters with a microwave... (wink-wink-nudge-nudge)...

Hope you get your device either fixed or replaced soon...
[HD2 General] alexsql:
It is dead, no tri-color bootloader, nothing
[HD2 General] nerdstrap:
does it turn on at all? stuck at the pink/white "stick together screen"?
[HD2 General] VizagDude:
Since it's less than 2 weeks since you got it, just take it to the T-Mobile store you got it from, and tell them that it just stopped working for no reason. I know it's bad thing to do, but it's better them than you right... I am sure they are prepared for the first set of devices to have some issues :)

Just be ignorant and tell them that you left the phone charging overnight and the next day morning, it just stopped working. They will just swap the device. Just make sure that you go to the store in-person to pick up the deivce. If you mail it in, they would dignose and probably know you have messed around with it.

I did the same thing with I flashed my device the next day it came out. I flashed a Custom ROM that had a non-compitable radio and it just did not boot. No bootloader mode.. nothing. NADA...

I called the store I got it from, he asked me to come by the next days since he was of all the devices and he was expecting a few the next day. I asked him to reserve one for me for the exchange for the damaged device. I went in the next day.. They just swapped the device. I actually told him to switch the battery from the new device to see if this one works, he said, it does not matter as he had send the whole device back anywayz..

So, good luck. Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] jlczl:
Same as above for me except they had no devices left. Out of stock completely with no ETA. I got my refund and I'm back to being HD2'less. :(

[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Nothing to do with task 29, task 29 is safe. Radios with ..51.. are deadly.
[HD2 General] mrmomoman:
Unfortunately some of the ROM's can be the kiss of death.

I can tell you that you have completely bricked the phone and they can't tell what ROM you have then you can probably get the warranty with HTC. If they discover you have a ROM it will be shipped back to you and they won't even fix it. It's a hit or miss with them.

I sent back one HTC HD with custom ROM and they didn't have a problem. I snet another one back and they declined due to custom ROM.

Just hope you get them on a good day :)

[HD2 General] themenucha:
You mean it's dead and there's nothing to do with it?

New CPU?

RAM discharge? SOMETHING????:confused:
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
That's pretty much right....when you flash an incompatible radio to this phone (which that ROM has), that's the surest way to kill your HD2.

You can send it to HTC for repair, where they will likely tell you that you need a new mainboard (CPU, rom/ram, etc) and offer to charge you for it....usually very close to the price of just replacing the phone with a used one.

Got my HTC HD2 rooted and installed droid froyo and it worked for 2-3 weeks, and then suddenly after trying out a program from droid market, called photofun, it just froze, so I removed the battery and put it back in, and it is not coming up at all. Tried hard reset with the vol up/down+power with no luck. Completely dead, would not even go to the boot loader.

So if anyone is in same situation as I was, just search for htc repair in your local CL and I took mine to a local wireless store here and they're able to fix it somehow and cost me $50. Software issue they said.

There seems to be a way to fix a completely dead/bricked hd2, without having to replace the whole mobo, but cannot find any info online. Anyone would like to share please? In case I bricked my phone again or anyone else who bricked their phone.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
They probably 'JTAG'ed it.
[HD2 General] bh805:
Is this it? ort-jtag.com/shop.php

Seems steep to buy a hardware for $330? guess no software solution that's free? If that's the only solution then I guess $50 is well worth it.

Also found this xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8112895 - which is also costly, nothing free or cheaper than $50 I guess.
[HD2 General] paulx77:
When you have a problem with your phone and its still under warranty, then if you call T-Mobile they will send a new HD2 to you first, then you put your cell (the broken one) in the box they sent to you and send it back.
[HD2 General] Marcello7x:
Jtag is the only why i know of unbricking a completely dead phone. Although it cost alot i decided to go ahead and buy a box. If all goes well i might offer an unbricking service.

My HTC HD2 is bricked as well... HELP!

Dear friends,

Actually I installed an Artemis ROM and everything was working fine until I had problems... I started leaving the HTC without battery for some hours and it worked fine (I was on holiday, it was the best option). When I was back I tried with a hard reset (vol.up when starting) and it turned to be really unstable (telephone stocked doing simple configuration). So I soft and hard reset several times. Usually after hard reset I got the Windows Starting process window and questions (location, time, wifi settings, etc) until it came to a point (after a hard reset) when the telephon remains stocked when the progress bar of the windows orange window at start-up is full.

I tried with the vol.down option to install a new ROM from SD card but I think this functionality is blocked by the provider and now I realized that Artemis does not change to HSDP... so I think I have no option. However, if I push vol.down when starting I get the 4 lines window but if I copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the SD card the "loading" display stays without any option to select to start the process...

Is there any way out. I would really appreciate any help!

Thanks a lot and cheers!

i flashed my htc-hd2 tmobile with RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship

it doesnt have that deadly .51 radio talked about, but i have the blank screen symptom. am i dead for sure too?
[HD2 General] HoochIsCrazy:
EXACT as above

I flashed the EXACT shipped rom as above and I too didn't have the deadly ..51... and now my phone looks dead. No signs of life, screen doesn't come on, but I know it's NOT dead because when I pop the battery, replace battery and hold power (all while connected to my PC) I hear the "device inserted" sound that Windows7 makes. Is there anyway back from this black screen?

me 2. i even got the drivers for it and it works installed on xp but for windows 7 it says not made for this platform. i used mtty to try and talk to it because it connects through com port but i cant type anything in the command line. :/
[HD2 General] fred_up:
Although all .51 RADIOs will brick the 1024LEO (TMOUS), it is also known that the 1.43 ROMs (with the 2.04.50 RADIOs) will also brick TMOUS HD2, as these ROMs and their RADIOs were designed for the 512LEO (Euro HD2).

The question I can't understand is why you would flash such an old ROM. If your phone came with 3.14 and you want to flash Android or WP7 or it has them on it and you need to return for warranty then the most obvious choice would be the ROM prior to 3.14 - ie 2.13 or even 2.10.

You could always chance your arm and phone HTC and tell them that your phone just didn't switch on after an overnight charge.
[HD2 General] KruptWorld:
i dunno man. im tottaly n00b at htc flashing. i used to flash my psp which i was always reallllly carfeful not to brick, which i never did. i just wanted to go back to stock so i can reload wp7 again. i dunno y i had that rom on my computer. i had that and the tmous one but the tmous said it was corrupt so i was like oh i guess ill use this rom. i just wasnt careful enough. thanks though ill try that.

Bricked my HD 2 with wrong radio

Hey guys,

I may have bricked my phone when I flashed this radio to it:

_HTCHD2_RUU_Leo_HTC_Asia_WWE_1.66.707.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship

Now I know it turns on but just a drivers needed pops up in windows, the screen doesn't turn on and none of the notification lights turn on. The phone warms up after a couple of minutes and the computer asks for drivers so I know its being recognized. all the battery pins are in place. Its a USA T-mobile HD2...Im a complete n00b at flashing so dont ask me why i flashed such an old radio to it.

All i need to know is, is it bricked for sure and if so is there anyone who Jtags close to Vancouver Canada who I can send it to?...quote me your price, but be warned that I cannot afford much for this as I've already spend tons repairing a digitizer issue that cropped up last month :S
[HD2 General] fred_up:
Yes it is bricked using a .51 RADIO will brick a TMOUS HD2.
[HD2 General] AFP2003D:
I bricked my hd2 tmobile . I am from Oman. Any one near my country have jtag to fix mine?

Please PM me or send email. Urgent please help.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yes you can change your main board out with a new or a none bricked main boardcand it will allow you to use your HD2. But do not get it confused a bricked HD2 is due to software issues not hardware. When you install a new or none bricked main board though it has the the proper software and allows the device to function properly.

Edit: I posted this with my HD2 and for some reason it only pulled up the first post on this page, gues I was in a low signal area. I know Callensboy said they did fix their HD2 by changing the main board. But I think it is still good to have it plainly stated in this thread. So I will leave my post.
[Android Software Development] vexingv:
change N1 behavior/settings & automate tasks based upon connected bluetooth device?

I've had my ATT N1 for the past 1.5 wks and have been loving it. I know with the desktop dock for the N1 that bluetooth can be automatically enabled when docked (at least it does for me). i hope to see this go one step further perhaps. i've tried searching on the market and here on xda, but I haven't found anything that does what i'm thinking of...

I'd like the phone to change various behaviors (eg. sound alerts, screen unlocking, application launching, etc) depending upon the bluetooth device that it is paired with. Essentially, creating setting profiles dependent upon the connected bluetooth device and reverting settings when disconnecting from said devices.

I envision:

-connecting w/ car bluetooth:

disable screen unlocking (having to unlock via pattern while driving is not only annoying but possibly dangerous)

jump to a particular home screen, automatic launching of application such as car home, google maps/nav, music, etc

enable maximum screen brightness (if plugged in and charging could be another modifier. the N1 AMOLED really is pretty bad in direct sunlight and is even worse when trying to view while wearing sunglasses)

set max volume

upon disconnecting, revert to original settings, disable bluetooth

-connecting w/ desktop dock [bluetooth] (bluetooth isn't an absolute requirement here since it can recognize the dock due to the electrical contacts)

disable screen unlocking

silencing most alarms/alerts (so that i can sleep in peace w/o being woken up to by random spam/marketing emails overnight)

upon disconnecting/undocking, revert to original settings

are there any combination of apps/settings that can make this possible? at this point, i'm not too interested in rooting my phone...

thanks
