Hey guys, i have been wanting to get a new phone for a while now and had decided on getting an hd2. I went in today and i am on 20 months and not eligible for a full upgrade, but i can get a "partial" and get the phone for like 270 or something like that.

I just saw a deal that on saturday EVERY phone is free when you open a new family plan, or add a line to an existing plan (which i have) So i was thinking I could just add a line to my plan, get the hd2 for the cost of tax activation and new line, much less than 270. But i want to know if there would be any problem with using the phone on my primary line and just not using the new line. (only 2 people on this family plan)

It seems like it will work, but i wanted to ask in case there was anything i wasnt seeing here.
[General Topics] Fuzalert2k:
Seems like a legitimate deal. Pretty sure your new phone would work just as well on your main line.
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
I still don't know,my HTC HD2 have serious problem or i just need some software or fixes:

1.When i'm conected on WiFi and i browse the web od do something other on internet after 15-20 minutes i lose my conection and then i must turn on/off WiFi to recconect and then i'm on line again.( i was at 1.43 ROM now i have 1.48 ROM still have same problem )

2.Also i don't know how to set my WiFi enable when phone is at standby mode.I have some program BsB Tweaks.. but nothing happens when i enable that.Example i talk at skype for some minutes and then i see my screen is off and my connection is down too then i must press wake up button and to wait for reconnect .HELP
[HD2 General] geralt:
To problem No.2 :

Try instal this cab WifiNoStandby and then restart the phone. Information about this cab you may find here. It works in my Leo.
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
Tnx man for the answer i'll install that WiFiNoStandby.

NOW I JUST NEED ANSWER TO THE 1RST PROBLEM
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
BUZZ

any answer to my question?

1.When i'm conected on WiFi and i browse the web od do something other on internet after 15-20 minutes i lose my conection and then i must turn on/off WiFi to recconect and then i'm on line again.( i was at 1.43 ROM now i have 1.48 ROM still have same problem )
[HD2 General] Archer:
I was just gonna say that myself ;)
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
any solution for my 1 problem??

1.When i'm conected on WiFi and i browse the web od do something other on internet after 15-20 minutes i lose my conection and then i must turn on/off WiFi to recconect and then i'm on line again.( i was at 1.43 ROM now i have 1.48 ROM still have same problem )
[HD2 General] Archer:
I don't know about that issue myself, so if I came across that same problem I'd have to use the search option. Did you try and see if anyone else has had the same problem?
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
i try to find something but i cant' find that someone else have the same problem.
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
wow man! reviving a thread from mid-2010! you have every right to revive it because it is your thread and you couldn't find a solution to your first problem.

but i am confused! its been more than 6 months since you reported the problem. how come you haven't tried a newer ROM? v1.43 and v1.48 are very very very old! latest is v3.14, try it and let us know if it fixes your problem. if you have a T-Mobile HD2 or a branded HD2 (vodafone, etc), then choose a latest official ROM appropriately.

good luck!
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
that was when i open thread now i have 3.14 ROM also i was at 1.72 ROM ...but still the same maybe i need to try with android.iIf i don't find any solution i'll try that :)
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
aah ok so you have tried the latest ROMs...so you see how it can help us and save all of our time if you post more information instead of copy/pasting the old version of the question from mid-2010? :D

here are some more things to try to isolate the cause of the problem:

1. try your device on some OTHER wifi network, e.g. at your friend's house or in a coffee shop, etc. does the wifi hang on ANY wifi network or just the one at your house, for example...?

2. when the wifi dies, leave it DEAD, do not disconnect/reconnect wifi. try to ping your HD2 from your desktop/laptop, assuming all devices and computers that you own are on the same wifi network. tell us what happens.

3. same as step 2, there are some programs for windows mobile that you can run on your HD2 to see your device's IP assignments, etc. such tools can also be used to ping your desktop/laptop from your HD2. i think one program that can do such things is "network browser". tell us what it shows regarding network card information BEFORE your wifi dies as well as AFTER your wifi dies. also tell us if you can ping your desktop/laptop from your HD2 after your wifi appears dead.

4. does it make any improvement if you run your wifi on "best performance" instead of "best battery". note that "best battery" is the default setting which can cause reception issues in case the wifi signal is weak.

5. yes! certainly try android, it should help isolate the problem further to confirm/deny if it is a hardware problem. but you should know that your device's MAC address will be DIFFERENT if you install android (this is because both the SD and NAND versions of android and MAGLDR currently available have no automatic way to read the actual MAC address from your device's firmware). this might cause your router to behave BETTER if the problem lies somewhere in the router's configuration. it might solve the problem for you, but you will have to shift permanently to android just to fix the wifi issue and you might never find out what router setting was affecting windows mobile if the problem really was the router settings. tricky isn't it?:eek:
[HD2 General] stefan.snoop:
Ok thank you so much man :) i'll try all of this solution and i'll write again :) tnx again :)
[HD2 General] wuttie:
Hey

I have the same problem with my HD2. I cant load any pages after 5mins of being connected to WiFi. Disconnecting and connecting again works for the first 5mins but then you need to do it again. Very annoying.

If I changed the battery saving settings in the WiFi options, it seemed like it helped sometimes.

I searched alot on the inet, but I couldn't get it to work properly.

I sent a message to htc.com support and they told me i had to perform a hard reset and upgrade to the newest official rom. I did this but none helped.

Now I've sent it for repair under warranty. I'll let you know if they fixed it when I get it back. I'm not sure if there is any other sollution, but I hope they will fix it for me.

Regarding the previous post about how to isolate the problem I will tell you how my device responded to these situations:

I've tried it at a few of my friends houses, but all gave me the same problem :(

Can't help you on step 2&3 since I sent my device away for repair ;)

"Best performance" seemed to extend the time on which my WiFi would die. So I think this definetely has something to do with the problem. However I tried alot and nothing really solved it. Tapping 'Renew IP adress' a few times seemed to help too.

I read on the net about battery managing for WiFi on mobile phones in general, and for other devices who could choose the option to block the auto managing the problem was solved. Our HD2 however doesn't have this option.

I have tried alot of android builds (NAND & SD) but all had the same problem. I didn't spend much time figuring out what I could do about it while in android but by connecting the regular way the problem occured quite fast.

Recently I rooted my evo and everything was working fine until I flashed the radio and the phone couldnt keep a stable connection.

I tried and wiping cache does nothing. If nothing else works

UPDATE YOUR PROFILE AND PRL

[G1 General] evilpig:
If your G1/HTC dream's home button stops working, here is a fix (kinda). Whenever you turn your phone on it takes you to recovery (Home+Power=Recovery), here is a fix I found after an hour of Googling and ****.

Method number two got me back into my phone, but if it turns off I need to be at a computer using fastboot to turn it on.

It's better than nothing, Rogers is pissing me off. A week after the 1 year warranty and this breaks on me. Anyone know any permanent fixes or is it a hardware issue.
[G1 General] smileey:
I seem to have a similar problem.

But some how, it boots up properly once in a while. But even after it boots up, I cannot go anywhere except the home screen.

If the home button is stuck, this is expected right?

Dont you have this problem?
[G1 General] lbcoder:
I suggest you take the phone apart and replace the broken button.

Another thing that might be a little EASIER (without actually *fixing* anything) is to write your boot.img into your RECOVERY partition. If you need recovery, you can always "fastboot boot recovery.img". Having the regular boot image in the recovery partition *should* make it boot normal with a stuck home button. This way you don't need fastboot to normal boot the thing.
[G1 General] smileey:
I tried opening it.

I opened the screws on the back side. But I could not figure out how to get to the home button from inside.

For some reason, I can boot in properly. (It goes into recovery sometimes. But if I switch off and wait for sometime, I can boot normally.)

My main problem is that once I boot, I cant get anywhere from the main home screen.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
That makes sense, since as soon as you launch anything, the stuck home button will return you to home.

You may want to try harder to take it apart. You need to remove the circuit board in the "chin".
[G1 General] smileey:
Do you know how to get access to the chin?

I could not figure that part.

When I opened the screws on the backside, I could not see anything that would lead me to the chin.

[G1 General] rbtady:
Is there a better way than opening up the phone? The home button on my G1 stopped working, so, I unrooted the phone, but now it's stuck on the Triangle/Exclamation point screen. I've been able to do Alt S, (Alt+w doesn't work, I think the w is also broken), but I can't reboot because it asks for home and back button to reboot. Any other suggestions?
[G1 General] borodin1:
Ok guys, this is not a pretty solution but what you can do is re-map your phone so the camera button acts as a home key and home key does nothing. It's a hack but it's a simple one and sure beats the hell out of replacing the whole phone.

Here's a thread with directions.
[G1 General] jj972:
I tried remapping my home button to the camera button and once in the os it works, but still boots into recovery everytime and doesn't let me wipe, flash,etc with the camera button. It aborts....

Also, a quick tip I learned......If u keep booting into recovery just go to console and type reboot android. It'll boot normally.
[G1 General] Kensei22:
with the remapping the keys make sure you push all the .kl files and if you want to remove the home button from working at all remove the home button line from the .kl file.
[G1 General] borodin1:
You should also make sure that you re-map your home button to do nothing, otherwise it will not work.
[G1 General] djtommyp:
Thank u jj972 for that quick tip atleast I can get out of recovery mode....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r45k:
I'm not sure if anyone else has had this, but this is the first phone i've come across with this issue...

Whenever I'm gaming or something and my phone rings, I instantly pick up and balance it between my ear and my shoulder when i talk (you know, like old school phones when multitasking)...

But whenever i do this people say i sound like I'm talking in a tin can...

Is the second Mic (to drown out background noise) to blame?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flybyme:
make sure that mic isnt blocked. if you put it on your shoulder it will happen
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
No matter how I hold the phone people complain about this.

People have actually asked me what kind of ****ty phone/reception I have because the audio quality is so bad.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flybyme:
it may be a bad mic. have you always had this? maybe you should call gtc because all the major phone reviewers noted the nexus had one of the best quality calls of any phone. it should not sound that bad
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SBS_:
Mine sound great at least. I know this since both me and my brother has a N1. Really good sound quality from my experience.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusDro:
I've read this same issue before on the Google Android forum. Apparently it has something to do with the secondary mic and how the shoulder conducts sound thereby activating the noise cancellation of your own voice.

I also talk this way and don't have this issue atleast no one complaint.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcjewpants:
Hello Everybody!

I recently ended up with a RHOD400 from Sprint. I use a T-Mobile affiliate. I know these phones have a SIM card slot. The phone is Security Unlocked and I flashed a HardSPL to it. Can this be used on my T-Mobile Afilliate? I realize its a GSM network but I see the SIM slot. Here comes the fun part. I tried flashing 21905_WCX_RHODIUM_TILT2_UPDATED_APPS_TABS and now I'm stuck on the splash screen. Have I bricked this phone or is there still hope for a noob move like this? After doing some reading I found Task29 and used it to clear the storage to try to get a different rom to work. So basically, what I need to know is

A:Is this phone bricked?

B: Can I make this phone work on a GSM carrier?(It is SIM unlocked and CID unlocked I think, but not sure if it still is after Task29 cleared the memory).

C: What ROM would I need to do this?

D: I am familiar with flashing as I have flashed several ROMs with my ATT Tilt. I was pretty sure I did everything correctly, so I'm not sure what happened.

Any help would be lifesaving because I dont want to further screw myself.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] elazullizard:
It seems that you may have bricked your device. You may be able to prepare a goldcard using QMAT and unbrick it this way.

If you manage to unbrick your device then there is a way to get it working with AT&T or T-Mobile. However, you will get EDGE (2.5G) at best. You can use the method described here or look for the OliPro SIM unlock. Keep in mind that both of these methods cost money. You can then flash it with a proper CDMA ROM like this one.

Note: if it was already HardSPL'd like you said, then you will only have to flash the ROM. If you are not getting service on a GSM carrier, though, you will have to SIM unlock again. Task 29 should not lock the SIM or change the radio, so that should not have had any effect. Also, once you've used Task 29, you will need to flash a new ROM using the RUU. To do this, put your phone into bootloader mode (hold down the volume down key right when the phone starts up)

I wish you the best of luck!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcjewpants:
I actually had the OliPro SIM unlock done already, paid the money and am downloading the ENERGY ROM as we speak. Should know in a few if it will work. :CROSSFINGERS:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcjewpants:
Ok, now I got the rom flashed over(Yay!), but I still dont know how to get it to work with my sim card. It still reads as Security Unlocked on the bootloader, and ever recognizes my Sim card contacts, but when I make a call it gives me a message saying my account could not be validated. Do I need to do something to get it onto GSM? Or do I just need a new radio? If it is a new radio, will I need GSM or CDMA from now on? And speaking of which, will I need CDMA or GSM roms for this pphone? Sorry about all the questions, I have always used ATT& T-Mobile phones in the past, so this was never an issue.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcjewpants:
Ok, very strange. It says I have a voicemail, knows all my SIM contacts, reads my weather automatic, but I still cant make a call. I did another HardSPL, and did the SIM unlock again, went in and changed the phone band to GSM, just to be sure, but it still has a voice message when I try to make a call that says "Your account cannot be validated, please contact customer service". I'm pretty lost at this point so any help would be great. I am glad to know this phone isn't bricked though :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
You're in the wrong forum. This particular forum is for the GSM Rhodium, you have a CDMA forum (albeit one that can work on GSM networks too). So you need the CDMA version of HardSPL and a CDMA ROM to make it work (if it hung on the splash screen then you flashed the wrong type of ROM).

Folks in the CDMA sub-forum may be able to advise you about getting it to roam on a GSM network. Also try ppcgeeks.com , which tends to have more CDMA users.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcjewpants:
I'm actually not stuck on the splash screen anymore. I flash The ENERGY rom over and it worked in the sense that I'm no longer stuck in splash screen. Now I can Get sim contacts, weather. I just cant make calls or send text, Internet ect. I just get a voice message that says "your account cannot be validated"

I'm still not sure
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
ok, but you're still in the wrong forum though. You're asking questions about a phone with CDMA ROM, and this sub-forum is for GSM ROMs. I suggest going to NRG's thread on ppcgeeks.com, there's a link to that in his thread here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcjewpants:
UPDATE: Finally got it, just needed to search for networks again. I thank everyone for the help.

And will remember the CDMA sub-forum in the future ;)
[EVO 4G General] clubtech:
I tested the following:

Turning 4G on in a full bar area and letting it stand idle for one hour.

I lost about 20% battery in one single hour.

The phone had the screen off, wifi off and all apps but the essential ones off.

On 3G i lost about 5%/hour.

4G is supposed to be an "always-on" service with such a battery drainage?

I was sure it was supposed to be a power efficient service, like WiFi or at least like 3G.

Note the phone also gets a little hot after one hour if being idle with 4G on.

I wonder if other people are seeing the same results?
[EVO 4G General] ap3604:
Ummmm...

Wow...

ummmm...

4g = bad for battery ;)
[EVO 4G General] clubtech:
OK...Thanks!

I really wanted someone else to test this and report back.

Maybe it is just my unit or the ROM that i am using?
[EVO 4G General] ap3604:
LoL sorry brotha' I was just messing around :)

You gotta admit though, you set yourself up for that one ;)

In all seriousness, 4g is an absolute battery killer! ESPECIALLY if your in an area where you don't get good 4g signal.

If your in a good area and surrounded by 4g then the phone doesn't really have to work at all to keep the signal BUT if your in an area where there's not much 4g signal, like most of America, then it will destroy your battery life (and make your phone hot) because your phone keeps searching for it over and over which chews up the battery. I would ALWAYS keep 4g off unless your downloading something until the 4g becomes more expanded across America. Also download the app battery indicator and make sure you keep track of your battery temperature with it in the status bar. I never let my battery get above 99*F since that will cause permanent damage. In your first post you were talking about losing 20% in an hour while on 4g which would alot of sense since the phone (on 3g) is only slated to get 4-5 hours of talk time, with 4g on always searching for signal the 20% loss seems about right.

Sorry again for messing with you earlier ;)
[EVO 4G General] clubtech:
np.

I am with full 4g bar when testing, so it is not a signal issue.
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
Yeah, it's a huge battery drainer. I forgot I turned it on in town, took a nap and had 85% battery left, fell asleep and took a 2 hour nap, woke up and it was dead dead mofo dead.

So yeah, it's a battery killer.
