[HD2 General] SYST3M4T1C:
I have an international phone is that ok to upgrade?
[HD2 General] Hydrad:
Hmm,

So far this rom is only available for Vodafone users in Holland. I have an unbranded htc as well, with Vodafone membership though :)
[HD2 General] quasi_mojo:
i would sit on your hands for abit, wait and see if HTC release a generic 1.72 Rom, or one specifically for your area/carrier

e.g the tmob uk 1.72 rom will not work for u.s tmob phones etc etc
[HD2 General] AngelDeath:
As I am not a HD2 user, Anyone testing this rom out please give responses to the Messaging and if its been further been tweaked to work better with high numbers of msgs? I would be very curious to see about Pulling the Messaging system out and us Poor TP2 users and installing to further improve our MSG client App. So far one person said its better but I'd be curious to hear from other heavy sms users. Just dont want to waste my time cabbing this up if there is really no big difference then the leo8007-07 hotfix.
[HD2 General] coolkast:
Yes my HD2 was delivered with the 1.72.172.0 (82124) ROM, Vodafone NL. no complains yet, fast and really smooth working
[HD2 General] Dave©:
Here is the link for the Vodafone 1.77....

Except for the splash screen at the start it looks fairly "generic". Sorry you will have to paste the above to the address bar - I am not allowed to post links :(

why is there no official fix list - or is it?

Is it just me who is missing an official fix list and no ... always trying to give the best b...s..t.

Any software or game patch will deliver an issue resolved or fix list.

[HD2 General] quasi_mojo:
i read that post too, ive probably only got 10% of that many SMS's as im regularly deleting unnessesary messages in search of speed, IMHO, messaging in 1.72 has greatly improved, speed from recieving a text to being able to type a response has greatly been improved.

also, i have BSB tweaks installed with the tweak for the send button moved to the mid-righ hand side, and leo-extended notifications to tell me when the phone has sent the text.
[HD2 General] ruffruff:
hi bro,

I am also concern with the HTC messaging issue. Is it really improved in the 1.72 rom? I have over 500 sms and they keep piling up each week. I am on 1.66 now and it is a pain to delete my sms every alternate days.

Does it still lag the entire phone when SMSs increases over 300?

thanks.
[HD2 General] AngelDeath:
Im with you, very curious to see what the outcome of this is, the Leo8007-07 fixed the waiting delay to be able to text but still was slow in loading msgs in the background, and it fixed the contact picture disappearing in the sms's after a reset, and a couple of other things in the Touch pro 2 when I applied it, but Would like to see if they made any more improvments to that and the contacts app, because I think in alot of ways they go hand in hand.
[HD2 General] chrisnz1947:
Hi,

I installed the VF UK version a couple of weeks ago.

First thing I have noticed is that the rom is overall slower, I see the wait cursor far more than with my previous 1.66 VF rom with all the same software installed.

secondly I loose my SD card if I connect to a PC as a disk drive and susbsequently remove the SD hardware on the PC, ie the phone does not re-aquire the card, need to soft reset. Active sync works fine..

Has I have other software loaded I cannot as yet prove that this SD problem happens on a clean rom instal.
[HD2 General] coolkast:
I do not have that particulair problem with NL 1.72 ROM, after disconnect it will automatically re-aquire my SD card.
[HD2 General] quasi_mojo:
same here, sounds like its not an issue with the rom, perhaps one of the applications you have installed chrisnz.
[HD2 General] skyhew:
Yes and No.

Yes: To use this in SEA model, you need HSPL.

No: You can't use this 'officially', and if you use HSPL 'force' in the ROM, you lose some feature special for SEA device, i.e.: Chinese input/display support.
[HD2 General] skyhew:
What do you mean by 'international phone'? Normally, HTC release the phone by region. A HTC should belongs to one of the region...

Just try to key in your Serial to the download site, normally, if it enable you to download, you are with correct version to upgrade. If not, check with HTC your phone region.
[HD2 General] -BA-:
I have the HD2 on Virgin Mobile. As far as I am aware this is a fully unbranded phone so I presume I have to wait for the generic one to come out? Using 1.66 stock rom atm.
[HD2 General] AngelDeath:
Just want to see if anyone else with heavy sms can tell us if the msg app is working better then the hotfix from a couple of months ago.
[HD2 General] Dave©:
Messages deleted after upgrade but msg app appears to work fine now...will see how it behaves when message history fills up!!

Dave©
[HD2 General] clarkdevlin:
thanks, will do that, i dont use chinese input and display anyway.

just wanted to see if it will fix the sms issues im having.

1.72 ROM Issues

[HD2 General] jools5431:
1.72 o2 rom causing problems

I upgraded to the O2 1.72 rom at the beginning of May. The first installation froze during the first five minutes of the upgrade and I had to hard reset the phone. However the second attempt appeared to work without any hiccups and all appeared to go well.

Although the ROM did seem generally better it has developed the following problems and seems to be getting worse:

The phone keeps locking up and needs a soft reset.

The signal quality seems to have deteriorated and intermittent. (No signal most of the time). I frequently get the exclamation mark saying no signal but when I try and make a call I get full bars.

Performance and speed has reduced drastically (ie when I am now in the email tab and press Inbox, it takes a few seconds instead of being instant. The manilla tabs are near impossible to use now.

Every screen now rotates including the lock screen

Keeps dropping calls.

Generally keeps doing wierd things.

Has anyone else had these problems?

Is a hard reset likely to help?

Presumably a hard reset takes its data from the installed Rom and if the Rom upgrade was corrupted and incomplete then a hard reset would not help. (is this possible?)

Can the 1.72 rom be re-flashed?

Any help would be very much appreciated[/QUOTE]
[HD2 General] ebeam:
I flashed the same rom when it was released, and TBH, I've had none of the problems you mention. It seems possible that you didn't get a clean install of the new rom, and IMO, it's worth trying to flash it again - in fact, I'd also re-download the rom from HTC.

HTH
[HD2 General] jools5431:
Sorry if all these questions seem obvious, but better to be safe than sorry.

Are you saying that it's definately possible to re-flash the same rom to my phone?

What is the likeleyhood of an unclean install still working?

If I had more time on my hands I would try a hard reset and then the long job of re-installing all the apps, updates and tweaks and getting it back to how I want it.
[HD2 General] ebeam:
OK, I'm not an expert, but I've read on here that a bad flash WILL work, but give a lot of problems. I know that you can re-flash the same rom.

HTH.
[HD2 General] jools5431:
Thanks

I think that hopefully answers my questions

Rumor has it that Google Nexus One will be receiving a major OTA update with quite a few bug fixes and improvements. Although, this is a rumor, this is a possible list of updates included in OTA...

* Better memory management

* Fix multitouch issues

* Fix the blurry images on Android 2.1

* Possible 3G patches

* Activation of FM radio

i hope thats true, and the ota update will fix the 3g problems. I dont believe that google ignore this problem cause they sell the nexus to germany and other european countries next week.
[Nexus One General] hotweiss:
I would love for them to activate the FM transmitter and 802.11N also.
[Nexus One General] sylar91:
i think that this changes will be introduced when android 2.2 will be released, rumours say it should be on the 19 of May.

[HD2 General] CrocMonsieur:
Hello

My HD2 Worked well for a long time, but now everytime I press the "sleep" key it turns off for half a second then turns back on and proudly displays the lockscreen without me pressing anything. There is no way to turn the screen off and go in standby mode anymore.

Obviously the battery drains so much faster from not being able to have the screen off and this silly problem actually makes the phone unusable

I flashed a few roms using HardSPL and now HSPL2. I'm currently running Artemis 11.0, the problem appeared may days after flashing while using Artemis ROM 9.0. A hard reset seemed to fix it but the problem reappeared. Today flashing 11.0 only solved the problem at first boot.

Anyone had that before? Not sure if it's software/rom related or not anymore. HELP :)
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
As far as Ive seen, its only you an me who have had this problem so far.

Honestly, Im relieved to see someone else with this problem.

I had exactly as you described, but using Axlor roms.

It worked fine for 1/2months, then all of a suddon the screen backlight wouldnt go off, but a reset fixed it.

But it got worse and worse.

Now nothing will work...

Ive taken everything back to stock, and i mean EVERYTHING! Not a single app installed.

And I still have this problem. I've tried it all.

I think its a warrenty job....

EDIT:

I also noticed the backlight will go off fine when the phone is charging, is that the same for you?

I just sent the phone off to Tmob today, to see if they can fix/replace it.

I'll keep you informed.
[HD2 General] flannco:
Same problem. Was running fine on stock ROM 1.66 then backlight did not dim and would not go into standby. Put into standby, screen goes off then straight back on to the lock screen. Since then have had other problems at boot, sometimes it locks on HTC white screen needing battery removal, sometimes launches straight into Navipanel and will not exit, HTC sense homescreen sometimes launches in landscape and will not go into normal portrait mode. Reflashed with different ROM's same symptoms persist so have returned to Vodafone UK under warranty, fingers crossed.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
i've had this on early versions of the rom i use, the chef fixed it, making me think its the software, not your phone.
[HD2 General] azahoth:
I experienced this issue when I minimised a game called virtual pool. Closing it in task manager would then allow me to permanently make the phone sleep.
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
How come Ive still got the problem after reflashing several times and taking everything back to exactly as it came from the box? :(
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
I too have had the navi panel problem.

Im praying they fix mine under warrenty
[HD2 General] CrocMonsieur:
Yes the problem is exactly what you describe, hard reset and flashing to a stock rom doesn t fix it with no programm running in the background :(

Navipanel seems to be on randomly sometimes so can I guess it could be related.

I found a fix, after starting the phone, plugging and unplugging the usb cable to the phone WHILE THE SCREEN IS ON fixes it but only until the next restart

Considering sending it for warranty now.

Thanks for replies! If anybody knows more let us know
[HD2 General] flannco:
Update re standby problem

Got my phone back from Vodafone UK today. Was advised software corrupted and that they had reflashed and it had been fully tested and was now working fine.

On power up (even without SD card or SIM) it had exactly the same fault as before, when put into sleep mode the screen comes back on after about 1 second.

I tried the plug in and remove USB lead fix and this also works for me until the next restart so it would seem that this must be a hardware problem.
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
I have a feeling mines going to come back from tmob in the same state i sent it in...

What other options do with have if they sent it back without fixing it?:confused:
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
any info? I still have not had mine back.
[HD2 General] CrocMonsieur:
bump... any more infos on this?
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
Ive noticed allot more people getting this problem. So its not only us.

Tmob are replacing mine, so Im guessing its out of our control now.
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
did any of you guys try performing a task 29 in between flashing roms? it may help
[HD2 General] lonelykatana:
Actually no, I overlooked it.

Probably would have been a good idea

Prehaps thats worth a try Mr Opr
[HD2 General] Spellie:
Thanks for this workaround. Now with the urgency gone hopefully somebody finds a lasting solution without the need of sending it in..
[HD2 General] surilaci:
I have same problem guys after 4 months using. ...and my HD2 is unusable with no standby. I mean battery gets weak during 2-3 hours. Whats your guess guys is it software problem. Cause Im afraid of this is hardware prob because after reset goes my device in wrong state.

Help!
[HD2 General] famewolf:
Sadly I'm running into this same error with my t-mobile hd2....getting serious power drain...can anyone confirm if the task 29 helped at all? Mine won't stay off for more than 30 seconds.

** Found out the google easy sms beta app I was running had a service which was causing the app to come out of standby...uninstalling this app cured the problem.
[HD2 General] tahiti:
For me, it was a sd slot problem. When i removed the sd card, phone always waked up after 0.5 seconds, and card was detected as bad.

Now the SD slot was changed (under guarranty) and it work fine, no wake up if sd slot is empty.
[HD2 General] nyvram1:
Any update on this? My HD2 starting doing this today as well

And I have no usb cable at work to 'trick' it. The only option is to pull the battery which I don't want to do. This is ridiculous. Am I going to have to hard-reset the damn thing to fix it?

FYI I didn't do *ANYTHING* to my phone in a couple of weeks (no new apps, etc.) and it started doing this out of the blue.

You hit the red 'end call' button and it goes black..then comes right back on.

The odd thing is it *thinks* its plugged in because the only screen setting I can get it to acknoweldge is the 'backlight level when charging'. So somehow my phone thinks its plugged in even though my only usb cable is back home.

Grrr. No registry tweaks or temp files I can delete to reset this behavior?
[HD2 General] wwwalex:
Got the same issue

I've got the same issue... it appeared after 4 months of using. I tried re-flashing with three different ROMs, tried upgrading Radio to the latest one with no result.

Even, being lean and booted just after re-flashing device doesn't go into sleep mode. Screen turns on after 1 sec after sleep mode key pressed.

For unknown reason, mentioned issue disappears but after a while comes back.

any news on this?
[HD2 General] diawollo:
I've got exactly the same issue after 4 months of using the phone. Task 29 and new ROM didn't help. When USB cable is plugged in it is possible to turn off the screen, however after unplugging the cable screen light comes back again. It seems like a hardware fault, sadly I'm abroad now and will come back home only in September, can't send the phone for repair...

Anyone else with similar issues in winmo..
[HD2 General] jkaal:
same here

same problem. At the beginning I was thinking maybe it is the radio but it is not. flashed an reflashed 10 time

still same problem
[HD2 General] DimitrisTS:
Same problem for my hd2 also...

When i connect to usb charger problem goes away UNTIL next soft reset..

I am not sure if it is a software or hardware problem.. It seems that when the phone refuses to go to sleep, it things its plugged in. That is because if i don't have auto backlight, it chooses the backlight setting when its plugged to power!..

I tried flashing different rom, radio, stock rom, nothing.

Anyone that send it for service, got any info about what exactly caused the problem?
[HD2 General] wwwalex:
I noticed that mentioned fault occurs when I use GPS... especially when I closed GPS programs incorrectly... not sure but suspect GPS module somehow "wakes" up device (by hardware interrupt/notification etc).

I had my device in "faulty" state several time and managed to fix by following procedure:

- Use QuickGPS to update satellite information

- Use any kind of GPS program to open a map and lock the signal. Then quit correctly

- Attach device to PC with USB choosing Active sync connection. Leave it for a while unless WMDC finishes its sync process (setup conenction if not done before)

- Put device in sleep mode by usual mean (hung up button). Wait until device correctly disconnects from Windows (appropriate sound triggered)

- Disconnect USB cable

I have strong believing that this HW fault caused by one of internal module such as GPS and not with any app. Windows is being awaken by hardware interruption coming from this module...

Pls, try playing around with you device.. we might find solution.
[HD2 General] medicuk:
I had terrible trouble with this also, I fixed it by cleaning the microusb slot on phone with an alcowipe... amazing amount of crud came out... presumably enough crud to fool the phone into thinking it was mounted in the car cradle....

Always worth a try ....

I think i found a fix to the problem....if you turn off and turn on your AGPS in location settings... it seems to enable the lock screen again
[HD2 General] Ahkau:
It has something to do with the GPS. The problem occurs every time I use MAPKING with GPS on. (Occasionally, the HD2 can't detect the build in GPS. If this happens, the problem will occur, for sure.) Even the GPS is switched on correctly, the problem may sometimes appear.

I follow the instruction above - switching on/off the AGPS. Like a miracle, the problem just disappears, all of a sudden. It's been two weeks already, everything resumes normal. Worth a try for those who have this problem.

Thank to u8mychipz.
[HD2 General] danjus:
USB 95%

In my case I think this is a broken USB connector problem. Could be dirty connector but I cleaned it up with wd40 and same thing, it will not go to sleep.

What I noticed is sometimes when phone is connected with USB to PC, it will go to sleep mode if it's recognized, but that's rare for me, when I wiggle USB connector I hear windows drivers sound and mine looks like 95% broken USB port...
[HD2 General] danjus:
Maybe a temp solution ?

I found out temporary solution for my problem, if I connect micro USB cable conector (not connected to computer), I was able to put phone in sleep mode. Then I removed micro USB connector and phone stayed sleeping.

Solution is temporary because if you remove the battery or turn the phone off totally, you'll have to repeat this process again. But hey, I got my phone back!!!

So it's gotta be something with USB in my case...
[HD2 General] rivets:
Hi

I seem to have joined the list of peeved owners who can't turn their chuffing phone off.

Don't think its GPS related, I've MTTY'd, flashed then the first time I turn it off, it comes straight back on. I have all the symtoms of a dodgey connection, the screen changes brightness as if on power when not connected.

gonna try and clean it otherwise its time to dig out a stock rom and radio and take it back to O2, deep joy

Hello I sent on 6th September phone to my Vodafone operator to repair. Yesterday 22nd September, they sent me it back (What did they do? Almost nothing. Just re-flashed ROM and sent me it back) They wrote to repair protocol that after long testing they didn't find anything wrong. Bull****. The result is that the problem persists. I refused their statement and the phone was sent back to service. The result I will write later.
[HD2 General] ATRAC3:
sorry for my bad english, but the thing with quick gps, open maps (google maps), connect to pc, sync, manually put to sleep by red button, disconnect, exit gps app on phone, ACTUALLY worked for me. I had a problem where my display won't turn off, you must manually lock the phone to turn it off. I did the procedure and it worked...
