That's correct, you can install a non-Tmobile ROM on your device, but like he stated, you need to make sure it is compatible with your version of the HD2. There is a difference between the USA version the the International version. You can brick your device if you install the wrong ROM version. If you want to install a non T-mobile USA version on your phone (and assuming you have a T-Mobile USA version device), the safest bet is just to use this forum to find a compatible ROM.

Good Luck!
[HD2 General] Big Dawg 23:
Specifically the ROM size of 1024MB on T-Mo US. Read all roms to see that it says "SAFE FOR T-MO US HD2". If doesn't than don't flash.
[HD2 General] 31lived:
WOW thanks a lot Guys that was very helpful, i really appreciate it :D
[EVO 4G General] gmelchert:
Recently i have been getting download speeds of about 13-70kb/s. My upload is fine averaging 800kb/s. This all is really odd since i live in a city and usually get around 1500kb down. I have the 60668 prl and the most recent radio. Im running baked snacks with his 2nd fps fix kernel. I dont see where the problem could be. Please help me out thanks :)
[EVO 4G General] frifox:
my old Touch Pro brick would average 120KB/s on 3G (STABLE), and now my Evo is barely doing 5KB/s to 10KB/s (VERY UNSTABLE). those 5 to 10 were what I was getting with 1x with Touch Pro. conslusion = Evo has no EVDO? lol, i know it does but the numbers do make you think. i mean, 5KB/s is friggin 1990's DIAL-UP!
[EVO 4G General] EtherealRemnant:
There is something jacked with the Evo radios...

I had Sprint reactivate my Touch Pro 2 and using the exact same Home Agent I got 1600kbps last night on the exact same tower that my Evo got 700 off of.

I have never seen my Evo pass 1Mbps... it hits 950 tops. My Touch Pro 2 will pull up to 2.4 - I've seen it myself.

Oh and the upload on the TP2 was 380 compared to 190 on my Evo.

Something is definitely up...
[EVO 4G General] gmelchert:
At first I used to get good speeds... and now ive tried 2 dif radios and like you said, its ****ing dialup!! i tried to look in my dialer codes to change some stuff around but they wouldnt even work. this suuucks. I'm in the middle of the sf bay area which needs to get 4g soon and 3g should be fixed... I don't understand haha
[EVO 4G General] frifox:
when doing wired tethering on Touch Pro, i used the HTC USB Modem driver and simply set up a dialup connection in windows through that modem to #777. one trick i found that maximized the speeds was setting maximum bps to 921600bps (900Kbps) in modem configuration. this way i was pulling very stable 110KB/s downloads with very small latencies...

is there such thing for Android that would allow me to use HTC as a modem? not internet sharing, usb nic, but usb MODEM?
[EVO 4G General] scev5:
I did some tething tests last night, and started out with real downloads at 60k a second. Over time going up to near 300 and stabalizing around 150 when i stopped.
[EVO 4G General] EtherealRemnant:
I used to get 150KB/sec or more with Internet Sharing...
[EVO 4G General] abrigham:
From what I've heard/read, it's not the radio itself, but it seems to have to do with the PRI (note: not PRL)... most fully rooted phones end up with 1.34 instead of 1.40 and as of yet no one seems to know how to get it back to 1.40 (other than flashing w/ an official RUU, which un-roots you, and from what I've seen even that doesn't always work)... I personally have not seen any difference in my 3G speeds in my area... my guess is, that just like a PRL, your performance will differ based on your coverage area...
[EVO 4G General] gmelchert:
I have a good coverage area... yeah i have 1.34... :/
[EVO 4G General] EtherealRemnant:
ANYONE that went to the engineering build (read: NAND unlocked) is stuck on the 1.34 PRI until it gets updated or someone patches it somehow.

I'm still in the "it doesn't make a difference and this is all placebo" camp though.
[EVO 4G General] wuclan48:
I'm consistently getting between 1.5-2.2mb download speeds with 3g and I'm fully rooted.
[Vibrant Accessories] gunks:
I sent 'em an email about 4 days ago... this was their response:

"We do not have any information if a case will be made at this time for that device, but it is something that has been requested. I have submitted a product suggestion on your behalf, and recommend keeping an eye on our website, as it will have the most up to date information on any new releases that we may have."
[Vibrant Accessories] Vanilla gorilla:
Wow thanks maybe I should call and email as well. Hopefully they will get the hint and make it happen.

Word murder provided by vibrant sgs
[Vibrant Accessories] gunks:
Yeah def. to anyone who reads this thread head over to otterbox.com and send em an email saying you'd like a case made. They make high quality stuff.
[Vibrant Accessories] Vegastouch:
Never had an Otterbox case but i know they are thick. And pricey.
[Vibrant Accessories] Alex530:
Just replied. And as pricy as they are look up on youtube. Otterbox car and iphone. A friggin car runs over an iFail and the phone stays in tact. Its super restive from what i heard and also i hear the build quality is AMAZING! As thick as it is its worth it. Plus OG smartphones are thick arent they? Not only will it pretect it itll make your anerexic vibrant into a smartphone:D
[Vibrant Accessories] Alex530:
Yee!

This is what they replied: Thank you for contacting Otter Products, LLC Customer Support.

Your request for assistance has been received. Case #157586 - "Samsung Galaxy S" has been created for you. A member of our customer care team will respond to your case as soon as possible.
[Vibrant Accessories] pyun:
Just sent them the following email,

Come on guys, lay it on thick. ;)

This is can be a great case to protect our $199-$599 investments,

and we're the ones that have to convince Otterbox that this case needs to be made!

So bump it up to the top!
[Vibrant Accessories] gordon.mott:
I requested one on their facebook page.
[Vibrant Accessories] hockeyrcks9901:
I got the same response.
[Vibrant Accessories] fireproof360:
Email sent

Just sent them a message too. I waited forever to see a US release for the HD2 but it never happened. I hope something shows up for the Vibrant.
[Vibrant Accessories] n2ishun:
I mailed them too.

Got the same cookie cutter responce everyone else has.

I have a feeling they will cave in and make one....but it might take some time for it to show up :(
[Vibrant Accessories] parmijo11:
I did the same and got the same CANNED reply.
[Vibrant Accessories] gunks:
Send 'em more messages people!
[Vibrant Accessories] jrwingate6:
Just sent a message. I will also make a post on the other forums I frequent, asking everyone to send Otterbox a message.
[Vibrant Accessories] Fat Tires:
I hope they'll heed our requests for a case. I really like the quality of the iPhone cases they make.

Subject: Samsung Vibrant

Do you have any plans on making a commuter case for the samsung vibrant? Thanks.
[Vibrant Accessories] Magnito:
Got an email back from them today:

We are currently working on a case for this device. I recommend keeping an eye on our website or Facebook page where we will be sure to post more information as soon as it is available. Generally it takes approximately 2-4 months for a case to developed once a device is released to the public. Customer Service finds out about new case releases the moment they are posted to the website
[Vibrant Accessories] gregc2009:
I was just checking their website yesterday to see if they've come out yet. They are at the end of their "development" time. Didn't take long for the bastards to come out with a Captivate case.
[Vibrant Accessories] roly17:
if you go to their facebook page and look under the discussions tab they have thread for galaxy s phones. on there they say that are going to make a commuter series case but not the defender one. there are alot of people saying that they want the defender and if they arent going to make it then they arent going to buy an otterbox,because you can get a commuter series type case right now from some one else. i threw in my two cents asking for the defender. everybody should go to facebook and let them know what you want:mad:
[Vibrant Accessories] Vegastouch:
Plenty of other cases oout there without spending what Otterbox charges. Tough cases, but Body Glove makes a tough one and there are just a lot of others that keep popping up all the time.

If Samsung dont get their sh** together soon with 2.2, this will be my last Galaxy phone anyways because we will maybe never see Gingerbread before we qualify for an upgrade.
[Vibrant Accessories] danow11:
I was a big fan of otterbox until I got my case-mate tough case, and especially since case-mate is made in georgia and I got it in 2 days.

I highly recommend this tough case to anyone who like me was tired of waiting on otterbox. Also the case-mate was half the price.
[Vibrant Accessories] zephiK:
+1 to this; case doesn't add much bulk at all and makes the Vibrant feel less slippery and more solid in the hand. Didn't regret spending $29.99 on it.
[Vibrant Accessories] roly17:
For anyone who cares. There is now a vibrant thread on otterbox facebook under discussions for those who want to ***** directly to them (which i did). Otterbox seems to look at this fairly regularly and give some kind of response. Although it's rarely what you want to hear.
[Vibrant Accessories] mmas0n:
+1

The Case-Mate Tough Case is excellent and a spot on replacement for the Otterbox Commuter case. The texture on the back makes it even better, IMHO.
[Vibrant Accessories] Five0nIt:
just looked this case up. I will be ordering on pay day.
[Vibrant Accessories] Kristoferallen:
awesome find
[Vibrant Accessories] Vanilla gorilla:
Case mate all the way
[Vibrant Accessories] techboydino:
Sooner than later people (I hope). A small amount on hope on a response to may barrage of tweets. This was in response to their commuter announcement for the captivate and after I reminded them how good of an idea it was to make cases for the Moment and Behold II. Cant wait.
[Vibrant Accessories] gordon.mott:
I was actually the one on their discussion page to point out that there is already a commuter-style case for sale from CaseMate, and that it was pointless to produce anything other than what they are famous for - the defender case.

With regard to the commuter case: I still cannot bring myself to care. Defender, or I stick to my trusty case-mate.
[Vibrant Accessories] Chief Geek:
If I cant get the defender then I dont want any of their offerings. Im really disappointed in them. In the past they never let me down. But here I sit wondering what the hell is wrong with them. Is the market not strong enough, seems to be plenty of demand. Is there design issues? If so communicate this to the hordes of people begging for their product. Its just a shame to lose so much.respect for a company that before this I had nothing bad to say about.
[Vibrant Accessories] danow11:
On Another note, obviously it does'nt really effect me cause im android all the way, but the otterbox defender case for the iphone4 was just a catastrophe.

I encouraged a friend of mine to get it after he saw the defender i had for my old blackberry 9700. He got that case and it just junk, a couple of the flaps wont even stay closed and just hang off the phone.

Hopefully they get their stuff straightened out, but i was just figured i'd add that.
[Vibrant Accessories] techboydino:
Fascinate Commuter case available. Hurts a little, especially since Vibrant came out first. I guess I need an iPhone if I want a case ready to go at launch.
[Vibrant Accessories] streetrider nick:
Thanks for posting the exact same thing in every other thread about cases?
[Vibrant Accessories] g.sembhi:
im just trying to help, seems like you have a problem with that.
[Vibrant Accessories] redrazr7791:
Well since I am sticking with the Vibrant...I am throwing out my vote for an Otterbox Defender case.

In the mean time, I will hunt down a nice crystal clear screen protector for this phone. Anyone have any suggestions :D
[Vibrant Accessories] darksandz93:
Screw Otterbox I just bought the Trident Cyclops case for the vibrant, tired of waiting around for Otterbox.
[Vibrant Accessories] Chief Geek:
How dare you find a great case for a good price and tell people about it in a thread where people are wanting a otterbox that will likely never be made and may be looking for an alternative! What's this world coming to. You should be banned! BANNED DAMNIT!
[Vibrant Accessories] g.sembhi:
lmao!

its even cheaper on ebay, just search "samsung vibrant case"

its around $7
[Vibrant Accessories] techboydino:
I know that most of you dont care. But if you do, Otterbox told me that I may have a Commuter Case in my stocking this year. Whether is makes it in time or not I'm not betting the house on, but it's certainly coming. (Commuter)
[Vibrant General] wbexpress:
Is there any reason that the Market version cannot or should not be used on the stock Vibrant?
[Vibrant General] t1n0m3n:
it was one of the first things I installed from the market.

Works as expected.
[Vibrant General] wbexpress:
Cool, thanks. Just did, does it's thing. Thanks again.
[Vibrant General] zerglisk:
Hello everyone,

New to android OS and started to love my Samsung Vibrant very much.

I used to be using the T-Mobile HD2.

My question is, what is the most reliable traditional Chinese input method I can get from Market.. preferably free :p

I heard somewhere else said that "Set Taiwan" has a very good traditional Chinese Zhuyin input. Does anyone know anything else that work really nicely?

Thanks all!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] anya618:
im currently still using xda atom exec and i always use ppcpimbackup to backup contacts, appointments and sms messages

im planning to get a new cellphone. my question is if i plan to switch to bada os or android os how do i restore these (contacts, appointments and sms messages) to my new cellphone?

thanks in advance :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Hakim Rahman:
to make backup sms, contacts, and appointments you can use PimBackup :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rejavanation:
I am running CM6 and I downloaded ROM Manager from the APPS store. I wanted to a quick way to back up my current ROM. Usually I would power down press home and power at the same time and it would open ClockworkMod Recovery. There I could flash a ROM, perform a Nandroid back up, toggle USB, partition etc... I liked that feature, but I thought ROM Manager would be more convenient since I am suppose to be able to boot in recovery mode from the program.

When I installed ROM Manager and ran it for the first time it installed another program and now I can no longer access the ClockwordMod Recovery by pressing home/power. Even when I chose boot in recover from ROM Manager it just stays stuck on the T-Mobile screen. I have to take the battery out to get it to power off. At first I thought it was just slow, now I realize it's just stuck. If I power down and press camera/power now I get FASTBOOT options. I don't know how to use FASTBOOT. I want ClockworkMod Recovery to work again.

I don't know how to reverse this action. Does anyone know how to do this or how I can still access the ClockworkMod Recovery even with FASTBOOT on my system?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rcanavan:
Download a recovery image for your phone.

Command to use is: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Of course, substitute recovery.img with whatever one you want.
[General Questions and Answers] u.b.o.o.t:
I plan to buy a new phone having Windows Mobile 6.5 Standard on it (non-touchscreen) and I wonder if something like VirtuaMouse (http://www.innovisoft.com/virtuamouse/) will allow running certain apps that have been designed for touchscreen devices.

Has anyone tried if this works?

Particularly, I am heading for the HTC Snap and I'd love to run MyLifeOrganized on it...
[Droid X General] onelifexv:
I've got a pretty large contact list imported from Facebook (~250 contacts). I've noticed scrolling is pretty slow, much slower then my original Droid. Anyone else having issues?
[Droid X General] grdm:
i notice that scrolling is slow for a while when things have a lot of items to scroll

if you are rooted try downloading Autokiller memory manager from the market and set it to aggressive or extreme preset

that should snap it up
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vitc:
Finally, I was able to install handwriting and other keyboards in 6.5 (with htc patch) Now I'd like to use the old classic little keyboard (better the 6.1 version) Is there any cab to install it?

Thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Downloading now. I can't wait to check this out. Tazz, your stuff is alway good. I will report back with my experience later.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Might I suggest adding "CM6" or "Froyo" or "2.2" or similar to the title ?

Is the Google Apps package updated ? If not, I'll use the one I just downloaded 1-2 days ago.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Concur w/ CM6/Froyo addition.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok fixed it lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
its the same from the other roms .. was there an update ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I can't find what license Camera Magic is released under... Do you have permission to re-distribute it ?

K9 Mail is released under the Apache license. You're good to go there.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jopusm:
Another great ROM, good job Tazz!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i emailed him a few times and looked around also in some other threads and saw other people including it

if its a problem i will remove it

edit

[Droid Eris Android Development] jman391:
Testing it out now. I can't wait to see what this baby can do. Great work Tazz
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
thank you hope ur happy with it
[Droid Eris Android Development] sureal:
I was curious as to why everyone has to put launchers other than stock, and allow users to put whatever launcher they want in, thereby allowing users to update easier too, just a thought, personally I use launcherpro
[Droid Eris Android Development] andybones:
awesome rom man, It would be perfect if the soft key lights worked, I tried the temp. fix but it doesn't work right for me, they turn with the screen off, and turn off with the screen on lol

You should add that the soft key lights don't work in the things that don't work list.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
oh yea kaos said that will happen thanx man
[Droid Eris Android Development] jopusm:
Soft key Lights

Soft key lights don't work on mine either. Other than that though, it runs smooth and I love that the notifications are mapped to the trackball light and not the other LED. Awesome job Tazz, but I hate the android keyboard :) hahaha
[Droid Eris Android Development] laxattack:
just curious you say live walls work, do you mean all of them or most? Also do they stick?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
sorry , i tried about 20 of them and they all stuck
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Oh I see, we're on this thread now =p I'll let the other one die. Should I flash this if I'm on the old version?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
,depends bro i fixed alo of the bugs , with some help lol if u was haven troubles ,id flash it , ithink its better ,,u should be able just to flash over
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
It's a 2.2 rom that has a2sd, oc and jit.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
This is a Froyo ROM built from the Froyo source code, it is not 2.1.

That means that a2sd is automatic and requires no partition of your SD card, in fact if you partition your card you need to reformat to FAT32.

JIT is autodisabled but you can to go settings --> Cyanogen Settings --> Performance Settings and enable JIT

Overclocking is enabled.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
I had the account setup thing but it goes away once you do it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
Just wanted to say I finally hit 5.4 on linpack and 443 on quadrant. Can't wait for rc2. I've heard it has some great speed increases for this already ungodly fast ROM
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Would someone mind linking to RC2?

edit: Oh I don't think a changelog is out yet.
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
Here you go hungry man
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Sweet thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
No problem anytime. I think rc2 is coming with adw 1.0
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
just a update

well im almost ready with this RC2 update , once i get this wifi workin , it will be tested then ill upload it , hopefuly by tonight
[Droid Eris Android Development] BrownEye02:
Thanks for the fix. I also had this problem. Awesome Rom though! Cant wait till the stock camera app works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Awesome. What kind of changes can we look forward to?
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
woo hoo! great progress bro.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
well the one thing i can tell u is it is much faster , and i dont see any lag what so ever
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
You're using the new radio, right? I guess it is time to break down and flash it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
yes im using the new radio
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Faster? LOL hard to believe I'm already so speedy.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
well for me bro ,, i havent tweaked the rom on my phone lol i just gett it workin and let u guys play with it :P

if u say it cant go any faster , i guess i have to believe u lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Sorry I had MASSIVE lag
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:

[Droid Eris Android Development] skraapz27:
flashing v6 now. I have a possible dumb question what is different with froyo romss that the camera wont work. what actually cause the problem. just asking because i dont know.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
We need the kernel to have a working.camera
[Droid Eris Android Development] 11BE-5:
Just wanted to express appreciation for the awesome ROM. It is amazing. Excellent work!
[Droid Eris Android Development] skraapz27:
ohhh i got ya. one more question, I flashed V6 and there is no market apps should i re-download the apps patch or use the old one???

Edit: No google anything
[Droid Eris Android Development] chuck solid:
Right on Tazz!!! Lookin' forward to takin' this baby for a spin.

Thanks for putting up with all the grateful and ungrateful alike :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Which old one? You can use the same google apps zip that has been used for the previous versions of this ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] skraapz27:
Thats the one i meant, I was under the impression that it would be already included in v6 thats all.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Devs can't package google apps with cyanogen ROM's.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Monkeypuppet:
Nice job tazz. So far nothing really to report. Only things I noticed were what was expected such as the charge led sticking once in a while but as n2imagination said who cares.

Again, nice job.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2wisted:
This rom is superb tazz been running a few minutes I have not put on setcpu yet but it is real smooth and everything is working good so far by far the best rom for Eris, great work!
