[HTC Excalibur] Guitar100:
Hey guys....it`s been awhile.

i`m trying to reset my Dash to factory settings to sell.I`ve tried both ways. hold soft keys,press power button for 1-2 seconds,i get the white letterings saying personal data will be lost,and will reset to manufacturer default.press send to restore manufacturer default.it goes thru its thing....(preparing your device,please wait.....) it goes thru cold boot config. when it restarts, it`s back to 3vo series rom.i`ve done the start/accessories/clear storage/1234/yes.

still same thing........weird....does the sim card need to be in phone to hard reset?
[HTC Excalibur] paradox1985:
the hard reset does not remove the installed rom just the data to but it back to the default rom you must reflash said rom. the standard roms are in the wiki i think but sont qupte me. failing that they should be around on the forum somewhere so search and you'll find them. hope this helps
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Stock ROMs in F.A.Q as paradox1985 states a hard-reset will only take you back to the base of flashed ROM not all the way back to stock.
[HTC Excalibur] Guitar100:
Excellent .....thanks for your help.
[Nexus One Accessories] B1ny:
Do anyone have the 2400 mAh battery? I just ordered it, and will get back to you regarding my thoughts on performance when I get it.
[Nexus One Accessories] JHaste:
ship it to d0ugie first so we can get stats on it
[Nexus One Accessories] B1ny:
To late, ordered it yesterday, and it had made it at least twice as expensive for me as well.
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
hello all. Im a use rof an old spv. and just got my new HTC HD2

a few questions if i may? i can't figure out and ive been trying since last night, i've searched google high and low as well and called tmobile.

1. the phone when it dims and then goes to sleep, i have to always press a hard button then slide the lock to unlock... is there away to disablehaving to press a hardbutton? it gets really annoying having to press ahardbutton every minute when the phone goes to sleep!

2. when the phone dims after 10 seconds is there a way to set it up so that your first press just undims the screen and doesnt actually press whats under neath it?

3. ive read all over google about the gesture feature, ive asked tmobile. and i cannot get my phone to do any gestures what so ever. ive download and installed the shake and wake and still nothing. i download a program called pocketshield and that completelly locked me out of phone becuase when i shook it it wouldnt turn on i had to take off battery wait a minute and then replace the battery then uninstall the app.

4.the media players.. ive tried coreplayer, windows media player, pocketplayer, the one that plays the most files is coreplayer.. ive noticed in fullscreen mode there are no buttons? everytime i tap the screen ti brings me back to portrait view... is there any recomendaions for a player similiar to core player that has controls on the big screen in landscape view? and that offers all the features coreplayer does? eq, visualizations, plays as many file types etc...

5. ive looked everywhere on how to change email icons the envelopes.. is there away to change those or do we just have to remember the order of the email icons?

thanks for any help or light you guys can shed! i really hope some of these issues can beresolved. i feel ive exhausted my xda,google searching, and phone settings searching.
[HD2 General] aceo07:
1. It would consume lots of battery power to constantly monitor the touch screen. You can increase the amount of time before it goes to sleep.
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
ok i'll just have to deal with it an dwill raise the time.. ty for reply.. anyone else on the other questions please?

TY in advance
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
could anyone one confirm that the hd2 from the usa allows for shaking? ive rest phone and it doesnt work called tmobile and they have no clue! i'd liek to get me phone to be able to work with gestures.

Thanks
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
let me rephrase. does anyone know if the htc hd2 has... Windows Mobile phone with a tilt sensor / accelerometer/ g-sensor. or the ability to shake it and it will wake up?

thank you
[HD2 General] kilrah:
It has an accelerometer, but there's NO shake to wake up.

Only way to wake up is to press a hard button.

5. if you mean the dirrerent e-mail accounts in sense, when you press on the "slider" that's on the active account and drag it, its expands to the left and shows the account name.
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
ok.. then what about the posts here about shaking it and tilting it? and what about pocketshield saying that you can shake it, and this link as well?

http://www.mobinauts.com/topic/110094-shake-to-wake-up-your-htc-hd2/

thanks for your reply!!!!. it's like pulling teeth in this forum very tough to get replies!
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Apparently the shake to wake is a somewhat "experimental" add-on someone on here made and abandoned, works for some and not for others... nothing official, normal that tmo have no clue about it.

No idea about pocketshield, haven't read reports about that particular function on the HD2. Not very popular apparently, so you'll have to try yourself.

TMO support will help you about what was on your HD2 when you got it, nothing else that you'd install later.
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
thanx for reply.. well that pocketshield can be dangerous for some.luckily when ya replace battery it brings back the default slider. otherwise people would be locked out of there phones.

one last question and i promise to stay away for awhile.

how to u turn your backlight back on? example you have it set to dim after a minute. and your app. is there a way to undim the phone? instead of clicking on the screen or touching a button and it recognizing your touch and undimming it and selecting whatever you touched? i'd liek to be able to just touch something and it would undim and not select something underneath where i touched.

thanks
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Not that I know of. It's been so with every touchsceen device I've ever had, need to either press a hardware key, which usually will do something too, or touch the screen and try to tap in an empty place.

Personally I don't use dim, I've set both dim and turn off to 1min.
[HD2 General] SanFrancisco:
That's because this is a developers' site, not a phone support forum.

Discussions are for developing programs, apps and other fun stuff.

If you want tech support there's many forums out there.

You should not be asking questions on here, about how to use your new T-Mobile HD2. I'm surprised your thread has not been locked.
[HD2 General] pckshd:
Of course it won't turn on by shaking, phone must be ON for any gesture to be recognized. It is the hardware nature of these type of phones(you always need to press the hardkey, unless it is the phone turning on by itself).

Now, if you meant it didn't unlock when shaking after power on then maybe your g-sensor is not calibrated or you were doing the movement wrong. Take a look at minute 1:20, see how the movement is done:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47BFSLnmBLI#t=1m20s
[HD2 General] xtacybyme:
thanks for replies i was away out of town.

there were many others here asking for help so i thought i could. my apologies. i will search and post elsewhere.

i did tap the hard button first and then tried the shake movement, and i was locked out. i will redownload pocket and give a fair chance again by following the movement given in the video you posted.. thank you for the explanations guys.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] zfantasy:
After updating to the official 2.53 Rom, my TD2 froze twice when i was typing sms and adding contacts to my favorites. This is the first time it completely froze and I had to take out the battery to 'restart'.

And I noticed the top right icon - task manager is gone and I have no idea what are some of the applications that is still running or did not close properly.

Does anyone knows how to fix it ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] the.mont:
updated yesterday, and now its verrry slow. there are some fixes about the task manger, but i just put a shortcut in the slidy bar.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] zfantasy:
ya..its running very slow.. and what shortcuts did you put?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ArtieQ:
Slow my ass, it runs faster than the previous ROM (sense 2.1) -.-

WWE:2.53.405.5 - Standby of Death / SOD

Hi,

I recently upgraded my HTC Touch Diamond 2 to ROM WWE:2.53.405.5 with HTC Sense. Ever since I've had issues with either a very, very slow device between anything OR worse still the Standby of Death (SOD) issue.

In the past I have fixed the SOD issue by changing from auto/auto (as explained in other posts) but with the new HTC Sense layout I don't seem to be able to access those options???

I love this phone and I really like the new HTC Sense layout. If anyone could help I would be grateful!

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] spigot:
Did you make HR after flashing your phone?

The new ROM really good, it's working without any problem.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
erm... "make HR after flashing". I'm not sure what you mean by that spigot?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
Ah, just twigged - Hard Reset?

Wouldn't a hard reset set the phone back to winmo 6.1 and the touchflo interface though?

How do I do a hard reboot on the Touch Diamond 2 - do I need to remove the simcard to do it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ReWind402:
Its recommended after any rom flashing to do a HR ( Hard Reset ), i flashed some days ago the official rom and did a HR and no problems soo far. :)

The HR will only reset your phone ( rom 6.5 ) to the factory settings. If u had 6.5 installed will reset to 6.5 factory settings, if 6.1 to 6.1 factory settings, and soo on.

A HR will erase all of your contacts ( phone ones ), msgs, programs on phone,settings,... To do the HR: turn off the phone>when its off>hold both volume buttons ( up&down ) and press shortly the power button> there will appear a white screen with onscreen instructions ( follow them to proceed ). To be sure back up all of your contact and what u need, if u wont u could remove the sim card ( i did it with sim card in ).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
Is it the power button (top) I press when holding volume up/down or the small red button inside the phone (by the battery)?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] spigot:
It's the first one.

http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_diamond_2_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
OK, I tried the hard reset. Generally it has speeded up the system but I still have a problem with Standby of Death (SoD) when the 3g / GPRS is turned on.

How do I get to the auto/auto settings with this ROM installed?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
I've found the band settings but what do i set it to so i can avoid SoD?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
...I give up. It doesn't seem to matter what I set the band to I get SoD.

...I can get SoD just by pressing the power button and then trying to start it again a few seconds later.

...I can turn off the Data connection and stop everything from using it / making it boot and it STILL get SoD.

I'm starting to regret "upgrading" to this ROM now :mad:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Couple of questions;

Is this a stock ROM you downloaded through HTC with S/N or are you HSPL'd?

Did the ROM come with a Radio ROM?

I suspect its the radio that is causing your issue.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Paul Terry:
I think I've solved it.

I could not connect to my pop3 email, Outlook seemed to have a problem. I think the Outlook data is stored with the text message data.

So, I logged in to Microsoft MyPhone on the web, archived 2000+ text messages and then sync'd the device with MyPhone (removing the archived texts from the device).

Since then I have not had a single SoD and the device is working really fast. pop3 mail in Outlook now connects without problem.

I've even switched the band back to auto/auto and still no SoD.

I have 25mb more free memory than before when I had the problems.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] singa89:
Hi people, Im on Sanpei's HTC Legend ROM currently and Im wondering whether I can manage my internal phone memory? Deleting files etc. Its now 60+ MB left in my phone memory. Is it okay or its low and will cause my Magic to be lagged and slow?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Super Jamie:
Root Explorer

CacheMate

/data partition

There are some search terms to help get you started :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] singa89:
Thanks. :) May I know whats superuser application for? Its on my phone but when I click on it it does not seem to be working.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Super Jamie:
Superuser intercepts applications which run as "root", so you can Allow or Deny them and keep your phone safe.

Potentially anything which runs as "root" could delete your whole phone operating system and all your personal data, or worse, take all your data and send it somewhere else.

If you are running a program that needs root such as SetCPU or Root Explorer, then obviously you Allow the app when Superuser pops up. If you download an app from Market or somewhere else which shouldn't need root but is asking, then you definitely need to Deny and look into why the program is asking for it.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] billy_tantri:
this morning i upgraded microsoft my phone software. it asked me to restart, but since i'm in a middle of something, i choose to restart later.

when i wanted to restart my phone (by pressing the red call button). the phone just won't go off. i also found that the message, camera, inner circle buttons to be not functioning while we're in the home screen.

but then all the shortcut buttons accept power off button, did work while i'm in onenote. anybody had same experience or way out?

Please kindly share...
[Dash 3G, Snap General] billy_tantri:
case closed

yesterday, after receiving phone call. all the shortcut buttons back to life.

Have no idea on what's happening...
[HD2 General] mr-green:
HEy everyone I was just wondering if anyone has a fav app for video conversion with 800*420 resolution support and one for DRM removal of itunes movies. the app i used to use for my G1 doesnt have any settings for 800*420 only 720*420 and doesnt offer any DRm removal for itunes videos. I just got a tmobile-US HD2 (bad-ass!!) and I would like to be able to convert my collection over to the HD2. I already searched the forums but couldnt find an exact awnser. So I am hoping some of you Euro-HD2 guys with a little experience on the matter could suggest a gem of an app for this.

Thanks in advance.

-1st time poster-2nd year voyeur:D
[HD2 General] mr-green:
DRM removal anyone?

i know this might be a little unadvanced of a question for all you super genious's but i have been searching the web for any kind of software that can remove DRM protection from itunes purchased movies and i can't find anything that works.. . i guess ill try the burn to dvd method and return to computer without drm to see if it works. although this way seems a little excessive.damn you Apple and you movie studios and you record labels i bought the stuff i should be able to play it anywher anyone here has a trick or favorite method of doing this let me know. if there is no way could someone let me know also. thnks
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
I think most people here would be looking at 800 x 480 and not 800x420. If you do a search on XDA you will find quite a lot of information.
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:
I'm not so sure about DRM, but I use Xmedia. it's fast and free.

It has HTC HD2 profile already in it, so it's very simple.

Just so you know, 800x480 is 15:9 not 16:9.

It converts it to MPEG4, so you can use windows media or video player. No extra players (Coreplayer is excellent for other files though) needed.

Only thing I haven't figured out is how to get subtitles on it.

My mkv movies have german subtitles embedded in it, and not by a separate .srt file.

oh well. still works very well.
[HD2 General] ephestione:
Sure, it's no an answer to your question, but: usually converting a video to phone screen resolution format is wasted time.

The HD2 is more than powerful enough to watch xvid encoded videos, given you use a decent player, coreplayer > tcpmp, but tcpmp is good enough; bigger video has bigger files, yet a 16gb microsd is also big, and you're going to delete the file after you've watched it, so... save yourself the big hassle of video conversion ;)
[HD2 General] kenkiller:
You can usually extract the embedded subs with apps like mkvextract....they come either in srt format or ass, which u can then convert to srt and use with tcpmp.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaos Chase:
Okay I flashed KK's Eris Rom the other day and was lovin' it, but it's too lagg'ish for my taste as I'm used to SuperD, which I tried to flash and go back to but now my G1 is stuck on the G1 screen and won't go any further.

I first re-partitioned my sd-card, then wiped, the transfered my rom to my sd card and then re-wiped and flashed, and now it's died twice from waiting for it to get passed the g1 screen.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grandomegabosses:
Which version of SuperD did you try to go back to? If I correctly recall, the newest, 1.10.2, has now gone legal and requires you to flash the defanged DRC83 base before flashing the actual SuperD update.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] PPiKo:
Good night,

I bought a HTC Touch Pro in France and how do they use another type of keyboard, ours is the Querty (Portugal), theirs is AZERTY. Now I installed the ROM in Portuguese, which will not install correctly because the keyboard is going and the next carry, for example, and leave the one I carry in Z and leave me the A. How can I fix this?

Greetings
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mister B:
Have a look at link below:

[HD2 General] MirasHD2:
I accidently deleted it. Well it said that it couldn't delete it and it looks like it's still there, but after that happened some programs like Blockbuster app won't work. When I open the app it says the following "An unexpected error has occurred in BBHomeScreen.exe. selec Quit and then restart this program. File or assembly name Microsoft windows mobile status,version=1.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken, or one of its dependecies, was not found"

How can I get it back to the way it was before? Will a hard reset bring it back?
[HD2 General] madman_nyc:
I just HSPL my new T-Mobile 2.08 US HD2.

Worked soooo smooth. Thanks for that. Now the tricky part, I did not read detailed enough that the rom I flashed was a 1.66 based one.

now the HD2 is dead, no powerup, bootloader mode, reset or chargeing led.

Any way to safe it or back to t-mobile?

Thanks Guys
[HD2 General] mjguira:
=( omg.... i was impatient too... I was downlaoding all these roms but remembered i didnt install the new HSPL thing.. and then i read the posts -_- sigh.. sorry man
[HD2 General] curiousGeorge:
I am so sorry man. Your best bet is to hope you can find a station where they'll work some factory reset magic on there...

Yeah. Sorry to hear that. I wish the SPL program would warn the user or refuse to install if it detected an old 1.66.
[HD2 General] std396:
No brother

YWell Brother u and me both have to play the old hood wink on tmobile and play the it just died face so we can get a new one. Fortunatly we have 14 days if you kept your receipt, to take it back and nag saying it just shut of for no reason. Its hell of bricked, even HTC would have to completely take it apart to fix it, so no trace of anything would ever come back. the bad thing is their sold out everywhere till Tuesday or Wednesday. But ill wait its a bad ass phone. woooo! where do you live dude? in vegas?
[HD2 General] pablo11:
I have read that you can microwave it for a few seconds and that kills it stone dead. No way they can tell what you flashed.

This is a very extreme method and an absolute LAST RESORT!!!!
[HD2 General] NSider:
That's.. insane.
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
remove your battery for 3 minutes and put it again and try ti lunch boot loader
[HD2 General] Savage-wp:
Have you tried the SD card flash method.

You need to copy the original Tmob ROM file to your blank SD card, rename it to leoimg.nbh (i Think), and then try start in bootloader.
[HD2 General] Mikulec:
Which hspl did you flash and which rom?
[HD2 General] madman_nyc:
the new one for 1024 T-Mobile 2.08.

Thanks for all replies,

For the Microvawe version, if you smash it with a hammer, has the same effect. Go Green.

No kidding, I ask for a repair solution not a Brick it more.

Bootloader is not working at all, so no SD way as well. And a rom based on 1.66. Smart as I am, I deleted the file.

Like I said, HSPL was great. Was still working after that.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
I laughed my ass off so hard at that comment! :D:p
[HD2 General] madman_nyc:
So I got it exchanged, I did the Hard spl and its fine so far. Still working.

Dont want to brick it again,

Is there any cooked German Rom that I can use on a USA T-Mobile HD2 based on 2.08?

To make my HD2 in German language?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:

[HD2 General] mystik610:
This is why I'm choosing to wait a little bit before jumping in and flashing my TMOUS HD2. I don't have the 'cajones' to be a guinea pig! I'm waiting until everything plays out and the process is tried and proven safe.

For now I'm enjoying the stock TMOUS Rom, and applying tweaks here and there. I'm running into bugs and annoyances here and there, but don't feel a strong urge to flash roms just yet...especially when so many others are having issues!
[HD2 General] FloatHeavy:
Yeah, when it comes to the software side of this phone, I just take it all in with the regular rom and see what I REALLY want out of it as far as options and whatnot. THEN I get to the rom goodies after a lot of review and feedback.

Hardware I'll dissect the guts if I have to anyday though.
[HD2 General] madman_nyc:
Yes, but still no answer for me ;-(

[HD2 General] ephestione:
I think you'd be much better off browsing all the thread titles in the ROM Development section looking for a rom that is [GER] and [2.08+]/TMOUS based ;)

As long as it's been taken off a TMOUS device, it will work on your TMOUS device :p
[HD2 General] pablo11:
he he. I know it's hilarious:D. As I said, absolutely last resort if you are taking it back for warranty cos if they find any spl other than factory one your warranty is void straight off the bat. Nice to see you got a replacement without problems.

I just read that advice from another post here on the forum and it is way extreme!!!

As posted above - any rom based on tmous original roms should work. Good luck
[HD2 General] dameon12:
YOU might use BSB Tweaks and choose manila language in the menu.

I bet it is based on the tool that downloads the needed manila files from the internet.

Try searching for the tool here on xda or use BSB tweak (but there is a solution to get it fully working german!)
