Hi all.

Yesterday I installed a cab file that required my phone to reboot. Once I started to do so, my phone froze on the 'at&t world phone' screen during power up. I've removed the battery several times and tried to restart it but it freezes the same way everytime. I've also used the reset button to no avail.

Is there any other way to get it working or is it done for good?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Just hard reset it; hopefully, you remembered to back everything up before you installed the cab. If you didn't, then consider it a lesson learned. The device isn't bricked, but the cab must've screwed up the startup process somehow so that now the device won't start up.
[HD2 General] fordfanboi:
Does the HD2 sport a TV out feature like my touch Pro 2?

Thanks!
[HD2 General] chribruu:
No it doesn't.
[HD2 General] BEHNOOOOD:
maybe in feature!
[HD2 General] fordfanboi:
Bummer. TY for the info.

Doesn't mean someone won't figure how to do it.........

I'm using the stock ATT rom, and I have installed the HTC hotfixes. Whenever I enter SMS by tapping "All Messages" about half the time my phone will not scroll to the latest message. It remains at the top of the page on the older messages. If I try to reply to the latest message, the cursor keeps disappearing and I have to scroll down until it reappears. This only happens about half the time. Does anyone know of a fix. Other than this little quirk, the stock rom meets my needs.
[G1 Apps and Games] ogwilson:
This possible, anyone? Even if just for the text chart part of the app, I'd love it. I don't want the old version as its very unstable when downloading hundreds of messages at a time.
[G1 Apps and Games] DownloaderZ:
Can someone please post up the APK to see if it's going to work on other carriers!?

Thanks

Hello,

After much reading and thinking and debating between the HD2 and the Nexus One I finally placed an order for a Nexus One AT&T and can't wait for it to arrive:D.

I do however have a question about the browser. From what I know (correct me if I am wrong) to select text on the Nexus browser you need to first press the Menu button, then select More, then select Select Text, and then highlight the text to be copied. Too many steps in my opinion. I wish there was some way, a hack, a tweak, or maybe an app that will let you just do a long press on the screen that will automatically take you to "select text" mode?

Thanks. :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sk8bomb1067:
I'm also interested in this. Coming from the iphone, it's a kind of a pain just to copy text since you have to go through all those steps and then use the trackball for an accurate selection. And when recieving an address in a text message you have to copy the entire message, paste it in maps, and then delete everything else that isn't part of the address. For example when I get a text like "Ok, my address is 123 N street 90000. Be here by 3." I have to delete everything before and after the address after copying/pasting the entire thing. It would be nice to just copy the address.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalthunder:
I will vote for a mechanism to do this as well. Please

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackElvis79:
Just longpress on text and two markers will appear in the form of green dots with pointers. Move the first one to the beginning of the text you wish to copy, and the other to the end. All text in between will become highlighted green and three options will appear...copy, share, and magnify. No need for hack or app imo.

Edit: depending on which ROM ur running.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahui9:
the holding the text only works in the desire roms because its part of rosie. what we need is a dev that understands the framework to port it over to the stock 2.1

This is one of the only reasons I miss the Sense rom but I'm waiting my full 14 days so if anything happens to my phone. Even though the last one had no problems
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
Didn't Android implement copy and paste before the iPhone? Apple took a good idea and improved it surely Android can look at something that's better and adapt the concept without being sued. I would use copy and paste a lot more if it were at all practical. I don't want an iPhone but when a competitor does something well the only shame is in NOT learning from it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Once again, stop whining Maverick :P
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam.lah:
Dolphin browser, you can long press on text, then go to the page option select text, you can either use your finger or trackball to select it, if you need to be precise, go into landscape mode. Not perfect, but it works.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
I think I like that. But is it the method from a Rom as described above, or can my phone do that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonndz:
Paul,

Is there anyway I can have that feature ported to my Nexus ? That is exactly what I am looking for.

Id really rather not root my phone. do you think there's any chance that method could be in an update if it turns out Android is in fact still in the mobile software business? I really need to copy and paste but I don't know how the current method was ever considered usable...thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liam.lah:
I doubt it, and waiting for any features in an update, you could be waiting any length of time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
This from the guy who was absolutely adamant about Jailbraking his iPhone? Haha :D

Anyway, have you tried Dolphin Browser, Opera, xScope? It's nice to have five different options eh?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
I've never had an iPhone and I don't really know what jailbreaking it means.

I do have opera though, which I do like, so ill try kits method.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Oh, from all your iPhone is better posts, I thought you did. /shrug

Anyway, many many many people have posted here that HTC has serviced their phones even when unlocked and rooted, so I wouldn't worry about that.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] followinginsanity:
BTW xscope browser has copy and paste as well. slide the addressbar down from the top (just like the notification bar) slide it over... on the far right you see a CC icon. tap select text... (can be tricky but it works, esp if you zoom in first) and then paste it where ever you want

HD2 unresponsive & trapped in a perpetual cycle of self deletion and re-custimization

I got my hd2 about 4 months ago and I have to say it's one of the best phones I've ever had, only now I have a serious problem with my ex =(.

Was running a slightly modified close to stock rom wwe, without problem (except the occasional freeze every other day) however, after attempting to install another room with cookie's homepage customizer, my phone keept freezing after about 5 min after the customization process was finished.

I thought this had something to do with the apps I installed just after the rom installation process. However, after some testing the same problem occur regardless if I install just the rom.

Have also tried upgrading to another newer OS version / rom & radio yet I encounter the same issue all the time; The screen will freeze and otherwise become non - responsive and after a restart the phone may not start ( freezing on windows orange screen), or it will start the customization process anew, somehow resetting all settings and stored content. .

Is my phone messed up for good? What are my options, please help!

Cheers,

Nate.

Update 25.3: SO I formated my phone with Task29 and reinstalled the 2.09 radio. Now starting to flash Kwbr_Topix_1.5.6 rom wwe. Will you know how it goes . .

Update 26.3: It's been 24 hours since I used task29, and everything seems fine. Thank you guys so much for the tip . . Now I may once again go back to using my great phone. Ty! xD

Do you have the autoinstall folder on you sd card? That could be causing the issues if something is in there thats not compatible anymore. Just a thought.
[HD2 General] Nate20:
You mean like a ruu_signed file on the root of the storage card?
[HD2 General] ephestione:
I second hicks, known problem, 90% it's just you needing a format of the internal memory with the task 29 utility
[HD2 General] mn3kgtvr4:
Ok, this is goofy.

Wifi works great

EVDO connects to internet and works great

3g shows 3 bars, but will not connect to internet

This is true even after a hard reset. Must be a settings issue? I did a hard reset, let it set up, and still same problem.
[HD2 General] mordawkubel:
I got the same problem. Purchased the phone yesterday morning. I never had the data plan before. I called T-Mobile twice and they told me that it can take up to 48 hours for the data to kick in. If it doesn't work by tomorrow morning, I'll give them a call again.
[HD2 General] methodz:
i got the same thing too guys. it is fine now and i got a text message from tmo so it it cuts out again i will chime back in.

buy yeah, yesterday i lost connection twice for long periods of time, like a couple of hours.
[HD2 General] mn3kgtvr4:
Thanks for the info! Seems pretty weird that it works when I'm in an E area, but not on 3g. Maybe different towers or something. Friggin awesome phone though!
[HD2 General] methodz:
LOL, WTF

i just tried to go on yahoo on my hd2 just now after posting and guess what.... it's out again!
[HD2 General] methodz:
OK so I pulled the battery and popped it back in and my internet is back.

i hope this isn't a hardware issue!
[HD2 General] mn3kgtvr4:
Yeah, this is interesting. Popped my TMo sim into my Xperia, could only get E level of service for some reason but could connect to the internet. Put the sim back in my HD2, took it to the far corner of the basement where it drops to E service and it connects to the internet. Back in 3g zone and it won't connect at all. At least it seems to have a stronger antenna than the Xperia. I'll have to give them a call and see whats going on.
[HD2 General] bored2nite:
there was an issue with the settings...

you can try a couple of things first...

if you are familiar with windows (which sounds like you are), you need to go change the access point name (apn) to one of 2 options...

wap.voicestream.com

epc.tmobile.com
[HD2 General] aceo07:
I called into customer service about same issue. I was told to power down, remove battery and start it again and check. It worked afterward.

Maybe it was due to them activating my new data plan, from Android data to Smart phone data. :p I don't know, just guessing.
[HD2 General] hazard99:
I thought maybe I was having this same problem yesterday..

thought eh its all in my head.

It was set to epc.tmobile.com

I tried to change it to wap.voicestream.com, but that setting errored out.

Then couldn't get the epc.tmobile.com setting to work which is strange. Soo, did a hard reset and let it set up again. Same thing. I can connect to internet with Edge, but 3g even though it shows the signal bars and everything seems great will not connect to internet, download email, update weather, etc.

I too am have this problem... Sometimes web works great, other times no web but strong 3G.... I thought I was going crazy...
[HD2 General] mammoth175:
My internet was working really slow yesterday when I first got the phone (5-60 kbit/s). Called up tmo to ask if maybe they had set me up with just tzones or something. The guy said "no everything looks fine here...oh wait I see there's something that needs to be reset; I'm surprised you were getting internet at all." When I asked him what it was he said he "couldn't really explain what it was", to which I replied "..."

Anyway, it seems to be working fine now. Don't know if this could be related to the problems you're having, but giving tmobile a call couldn't hurt, maybe they can flip the magic unexplainable switch for you.
[HD2 General] mordawkubel:
Ok so I couldn't get internet for two days now, I called T-mobile twice and told me to wait 48 hours. After thinking something was fishy, I looked at my receipt from Wal-Mart where I purchased the phone and I noticed something peculiar: "REQ Android Web: 30:00". Knowing damn sure I did not purchase an android phone, I called T-Mobile for the third time, complaining, so the first guy transferred me to another operator. He checked out my account and it turned out that I didn't have any data plan at all. So he added the plan and within 20 minutes I was surfing. Everything works great. I'm getting about 850 kbps in northwest Indiana.

It's very interesting that the first two operators I called never even bothered to look at my account to see if I have a data plan.
[HD2 General] aceo07:
Just discovered new regarding the no data issue.

I had the no data problem again today, even though it was working in the morning. I decided to reboot and check, but then I noticed the 'Terminate Data Connection' option when I hold down the power button. So I tried it. It killed the data connection and when I went into Google Maps, the data connection reactivated and everything was fine again.

So, it may be a bug! :p

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] FatBloke23:
Hi all,

I have a problem, and hopefully one of you can help!

My girlfriend got given an O2 XDA Orbit 2 by her sister, who didn't get on with it and has now bought an iPhone. Boo. Hiss.

Anyway, it turned out to have completely default WinMo 6.1 on it -- no TouchFlo or anything. Aha, I thought, this one needs sorting out.

So I did this:

1. Installed an Olinex Hard-SPL, that came combined with an unlocker. I thought I might as well.

2. Installed 3LIT3 VIII Full. As I've only really lurked around here before, it won't let me add links, to prevent spam. I can give the threads later, hopefully.

I then found that the phone didn't have any reception, even where it should have had a decent signal strength. Note that I ALWAYS hard-reset after flashing any ROM. So:

3. I (incorrectly) tried to flash it with a 1.64.08.21 radio ROM, which didn't work.

4. Reading a bit more, I tried several 1.59 radio ROMs, and even a 1.58, but none of them worked -- the device would stick on the white "Loading..." screen, and eventually CustomRUU would give a connection error.

By this time, my girlfriend was getting a bit pissed off, as I'd told her how straightforward the process would be, and showed her my old Artemis. So I decided to go back to basics:

5. I found an official HTC ROM (1.25.405.1 WWE) and flashed that. One hard-reset later, and surely it would work? Nope. Bugger.

Now, I still have a phone that won't receive or make calls...which is pretty useless! Device information reports ROM 1.25.405.1 WWE, with radio 1.58.21.23.

Any ideas? Help!
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] meknb:
On your phone how many bars does your signal strength say you have ? Is your phone in airplane mode "phone and all other connections turned off".
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Alex-V:
Flash the original rom from my rom threads under steps (see my signature)

it´s a newer original with radio 1.59.42.15

->make a hard reset on the calibration screen....after that you can flash any other rom with m2d inside and so on........after flash another rom you must also make a hard reset...flash in this way...work

:)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] FatBloke23:
The icon is the antenna with '!', which indicates no signal, rather than the 'x' for "turned off". I tried with and without airplane mode on, just in case!
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] FatBloke23:
Thanks -- downloading now. Will definitely buy you a beer if it works!

-- UPDATE --

Unfortunately, it hasn't worked. Still get the same "no signal" stuff. I did manage to get some signal upstairs (the 'H' symbol came on, and the antenna lost its '!'), but it wasn't enough to make a call. With the phone's original ROM, that same room had 2 or 3 bars. I just don't understand it :-(
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] meknb:
The '!' comes up on barred or blacklisted phone's.Have you tried swapping the sim i think inactive sims come up with '!' also.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Alex-V:
then i think the same as meknb....have you tried another sim...??

->original rom works good on mine...and Olinex Hard-SPL works also...what say the device if you are in bootloader (hold camera and soft reset)-> because it give pola 100 and 200 and the o2 orbit 2 is 200.....if 100...flash the 200...and see and report... :)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] FatBloke23:
I haven't got another O2 SIM to try it with. However, the current SIM definitely works, as she's been using it to make calls on my Artemis. Like I said, the Cruise was her sister's phone, and worked fine until I flashed it, so there's no way the phone could be barred/blacklisted. Also, we did get a little reception last night, and I was able to make one test call successfully before dropping out.

The phone is behaving as though it's got a problem with its antenna.

The bootloader says:

POLA200 MFG

SPL-2.20.Olinex

CPLD-2

My girlfriend's taken her SIM to work with her (in my old Artemis), so I'll be testing the Cruise with my T-Mobile one today. It's recognised it, anyway, even if it doesn't give me any signal.

I'm thinking my next step should be to restore the phone's original SPL and a dumped O2 UK ROM.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Alex-V:
i think it´s a good idea....on the o2 site is the original rom...and flash the rom and after that flash orginal spl :)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] FatBloke23:
Just realised that I forgot to flash radio 1.59.44.02 after sticking Alex's ROM on there. So I tried to do it now, and it didn't work. The phone sticks on the white 'Loading...' screen, and CustomRUU gives:

ERROR [260] : CONNECTION

The Update Utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone. Please check that your USB cradle/cable is connected properly between the PC and your PDA Phone.

This happens whenever I try to flash a radio ROM. Therefore, I think that there's something 'broken' with the radio on the phone. I will follow the instructions here to try and get it back to factory settings:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1962153&postcount=79

Thanks for the help so far, guys.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] FatBloke23:
Yes, that did work -- the O2 site gave me a ROM with radio 1.59.42.15, which is nice. Once I installed that, I restored original SPL (1.28.0000), and it worked!

:):):):):)

The phone was still unlocked, and my T-Mo SIM gives me plenty of reception.

Since then, I've re-installed Hard-SPL (original SPL makes me nervous), and I'm just putting the 3LIT3 ROM back on it. Hopefully it'll work this time. If it doesn't, I know what to do :)

EDIT: Also, I didn't realise the O2 ROMs were so basic -- just default WinMo 6.1. Surprised there wasn't any HTC customisation.
