[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan whitmore:
hey guys, im having major issues with my HTC HD2.

I have upgraded my rom previously and it worked fine. i just did the telstra one off the htc website.

STATS:

os version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)

manila version: 2.5.20121431.1

ROM version: 1.72.841.0 (82124) WWE

ROM DATE: 02/23/10

Radio version: 2.07.51.22_2

protocol version: 15.32.50.07U

I am now tryign to upgrade once more because im having software issues with my current set-up, hoping a rom upgrade will solve it. but, i cant upgrade my rom! i am using CustomRUU.exe as the host program for running the .nbh files. i have tried artemis's latest rom, radio uprgrades, andriod ports, maxsense cooked roms, everything! and i cant get it to get past this screen. :mad:

so the issue. i hook up my HTC HD2 to my computer connect via activesync, i then drag the chosen .nbh file on to CustomRUU.exe and run the file and the rom upgrade, im doing everything they say and my htc is hooked to the computer with the arrow things confirming. i do the acceptance steps, and it gets to the progress bar and sits a 0% (on my laptop) while my HD2 works through it.

it goes to the red green blue screen, says USB down the bottom, goes black and displays a HTC loading screen with a progess bar at 0%

this is where the issue is.

it stays at 0% for about 5-10 minutes, on BOTH the hd2 and the laptop, than the computer gives me an error code [262] : UPDATE ERROR...(i am aware that this is a connection error and should resolve with restarting for the computer and the device and a new usb port used)... but this has not solved my problem. as soon as my HD2 restarts and goes to the red green blue screen i lose connection with the computer and it times out. My HD2 just loads the htc progress bar screen and does nothing

i dont even get 1%!!!!

i have tried installing HSPL but it says i need sspl 1.42.000 (i think), so when i try to install that via a rom or whateva it is, it gives me the no connection freezing issue.

im stuck in a violent circle and get get past this issue. :confused:

basically, the rom uprgrade wont work because my device is apparently disconnected form the computer and the install times out.

someone please help! PLEASE! :(

im sorry if this is a simply fix and im being a noob, but i just am stuck real bad!

thanks in advance guys

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugghuggh:
start with HSPL!!!

Changing to a customized ROM is very different from upgrading through HTC website , and it starts by installing HSPL on your phone..

you should start here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=609477

but its probably easier to resolve your current "SW issues" than installing a customized suitable ROM for you at this stage.. so why dont you post what the SW issue is instead.. (unless your phone does not boot at all now..)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilwilwel:
Depending on what your Software problems are you could try to post them and try to solve it.

The fastest ways is to install the right HSPL you can use the link in the post of "ugguggh" which has a good manual about how all works. You also can read through the 1st two posts in de threat displayed below. Here you cna find which HSPL you need for your version.

CLICK HERE!

After installing the right HSPL its just a matter of choosing your desired ROM and install it.

I'm currently working with the Artimis V27 ROM NL and i'm not experiencing any problems it runs very smooth. Just format your SD card and try to download Task29. First run "Task29" before installing the ROM. It cleans up old stuff from your old ROM install. After Task29 finished press volume down before it reboots your phone so you enter the bootloader. Now you can start the CustomRuu application and install your desired rom. (if you enter a blanc HTC screen after Task29 (thats normal because there is no OS to load anymore) just remove the battery and hold volume down while putting the battery back or using the power on button)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
dont do that, put customruu and the nbh in a folder on their own, then right click customruu and choose run as administrator (do this even if you are logged in as administrator)

use a usb port around back of the pc, not in the front case.

the 'you need 1.42.0000...' is wrong, its old info. Use hspl3 and choose 2.08.hspl
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan whitmore:
THANKYOU! but here are my sw issues

hey guys thankyou for all ur help, i downloaded hspl3 and it worked and i have tested a few different roms,, and i installed Miri_HD2_WM65_21908_Sense25_V17.0_WithSwype, which is working quite well right now and i am pretty damn happy with it so far.

i installed S2U2 and since then it started to play up a lil..

the issues are that in general the whole entire system is slow. not neccesarilly windows but sense... :\

messages are sometimes unusable, frozen very laggy, and occasionally needs a soft reset. phones is unusable, can make calls, just cant hear dialtone, microphone sender and recevier isnt working, NO SOUND! shortcut calender viewer on the sense homescreen takes mins to hours to load appointments and sometimes doesnt for days. and in saying sometimes is lightning quick...??? :confused:

besides that i am not experiencing many other issues YET...i will have to wait a few more days. though i would really like a solution to the phone issue if that is possible :)

would love to beable to use a android port (a very good, everyday use version), and if anyone has any info on it, would u beable to post some for me please :)

i have tried haret and it wont work. i load clrcad then haret it runs through the first stuff, then the screen starts to fad and i get lines on the left then it slowly goes black and nothing happens. requires a soft reset to get the phone working again..

I AM JUST FULL OF ISSUES! :( sorry guys

anyways thankyou EVERYONE for all your help u have been great so far

thanx

It would be cool to see the devs tear open this tool and see if it can be used to downgrade non rooted users.
[EVO 4G General] mjb5406:
I used it, and it does NOT downgrade to 2.1 first; it merely replaces .3 with .6, and, by the size of the .exe, I have to think it does a complete replacement. From what I recall from the HTC-leaked .3 .zip file, it required the HBOOT from 2.1 and then patched some files (not sure if it was really a patch or a quick & dirty way to fail an installation script if the system detected a non-standard file... I remember in my early days of programming searching for a byte string and patching it to the same string and, if the patching utility returned a non-zero return code, you knew the file was not what you expected). This RUU seems to still have issues with the .3 bootloader (which is why you need to manually get into it before running the .exe), but it sails through the upgrade. However it works, it DOES work flawlessly.

I just recieved my new EVO today from sprint. (my other one had a dead pixel) I have done no updates to it, just turned it on. I have just tried the Simple Root and it fails because i have Software Number 1.47.651.1 and i guess i need the older one. But the phone came with it. Im currently on Stock 2.1. Can i still fully root somehow????:confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:

1.47 is the easiest to root. You are not on the "new software number". Don't freak out....

Use simple root for 1.47, search for it... It is easy to use, after that you can flash any rom through recovery.
[Nexus One General] htc420:
So my first android device I bought was a mytouch3G a few days ago. I love it, but it's just a bit slow. I'm thinking about selling it and getting some cash to buy the N1. My question is, do you guys think this phone is worth getting right now? Or is there a better Android phone out there than this one? I'm NOT going to be using the T-Mobile data plan, btw. Is there anything coming out soon that will cause a price drop?

Thanks.

edit: mods I realized I posted this in the wrong forum, please feel free to move it.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
The N1 is amazing, especially coming from something like the mytouch3G. The Nexus one (tmobile version) can be bought as a Dev phone currently from Google at the normal price ($529) plus a $25 developer activation fee. You certainly wont regret the N1 if you decide to get it.

Another good Tmobile phone is the Vibrant, in general it meets if not slightly beat the nexus one in many departments even without froyo's JIT. And you can get a Vibrant for a little less then the $550 you would pay for a Nexus One.

Of course both can be found on Craigslist or ebay at a huge degree of different prices also.

Nothing I can think of that would cause any major price drops in the near future. ALSO there is the new HSPA+ flagphone that will be out soon that I'm certainly interested in.

My advise is to look at the tmobile android lineup (curent and future) and see if you know of anyone or go to the store and see if you can test them and if you like them more then the mytouch.

-Cheers
[Nexus One General] jiggaboy:
Best phone ever best android experience as well
[Nexus One General] mjm128:
To put this as objectively as possible coming from a n1 user. The nexus one is a nice phone if you're very into customizing, from my knowledge of android devices, it's the top for modding. However it all depends on what you're going to be doing on the phone. For example if you're going to be playing games that require multitouch (nova) then it does have an issue with its multitouch. To some that's not an issue cause they don't game to others it is. The other major issue that I see at least for me is the small internal storage space. 512mb, really google? That's just two of the issues that I would really liked to be different, they're the only real issues for me. An hdmi out would be nice, but I wouldn't use it that much i'm assuming so it's not a deal breaker for me, same thing with a front facing camera.

But then you have things like the trackball that's nice for notifications, the screen size is just right, it's powerful and everything AND it gets all the updates first! It has a flash, the camera is pretty good actually (even though I hate cell cameras).

The only device on T-mobile that I can see as being another option would be the samsung vibrant, especially if you plan to play games on it, since it doesn't have the multitouch issue, and the gpu is really powerful. Problems with the device for me is the lack of a flash for the vibrant.

As for is it worth it? Well that depends on if spending the money is worth it and if you're going to get another phone anyways, yes the n1 is a great phone if you can overlook the multitouch issue and the small internal storage space.

EDIT: one more issue that I have with the n1 is that the audio is kinda bad, the speakers are quiet, and the headphone's sound is also quiet. Just wish the sound could be up'ed more so that it's a reasonable sound quality. Just seems more quieter than other android phones that I've had.
[Nexus One General] DarkDvr:
Either get the N1 right now, it's still an amazing phone, and I see NOTHING in market right now that I'd trade it for.

Or, wait several months for next gen to come out, something with an even stronger CPU, maybe even gingerbread around Christmas. And NO, it won't be called a Nexus Two.

Me, I'm wating for that second option. No smartphone/PDA on the market today appeals to me as an upgrade.
[Nexus One General] redpress:
unfortunately price wont drop for a while, it's now a dev phone. but once you have it in ur hand, im sure ud feel the price was worth it. you can always sell the N1 too with if you dont like it. and if you're geek enough, have a flashing addiction of nightlies, constantly making trying out something new with ur phone, this should be it.
[Nexus One General] adambenjamin:
I was in your same position. I got the My Touch 3g 1.2. And it was awesome, but I read somewhere that it was like a mini Nexus One and that made me more curious. I sold the phone soon after, and found a Nexus One, and it really is an incredible device, with an operating system built and tested specially or it (FRF91). The one downside is that you have to worry about the Nexus One a bit more. When my ipod is dead, the MT3G was ok for the gym, but not the N1. It has actually forced me to take better care of my phone, and other devices in general. It was a good decision, for sure.

Most of the upcoming Android phones seem to be rebuilt versions of this phone, and the N1 is still expected to get most updates, app add-ons and functions first. All dual core processor phones are still a long way away and are only rumored devices. If you are extremely patient you could wait it out, or just buy the N1 and sell it in a year.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
One item on the list "to consider" might be - Nexus will be the 1st existing device to get Gingerbread update, probably by a considerable time margin.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
If you're not gonna use data, I wouldn't drop money on a nexus one or a top of the line smartphone for that matter.

[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Buying a Nexus One for $554 plus tax without a data plan would be absolute and downright insanity.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
Wouldn't do it without a data plan!
[Nexus One General] htc420:
Haha, why not? I'm surrounded by WiFi literally EVERYWHERE. Is it because this phone limits what you can do on it without the data plan, like what BlackBerry does? I know with BB, you can't use certain apps, programs, features, etc without having a data plan. Is this the same?

And I'm not dropping 500+, hoping somewhere in the 300-350 price range, used on craigslist.

edit: Also, If I wanted to add a data plan, would I be able to do it without starting a new contract? Because a dealer that I personally know hooked me up with a no contract plan for tmo ($30+tax for unlimited calls and text, but no web).

Thanks.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
no there is nothing limited by not having a data plan. and if you are near wifi all day then its will be just the same. but when you're driving in your car and want to use navigation, or look something up on google maps, wifi isnt gonna help you. that's what they're saying.

and yes you can add a data plan anytime without extending your contract on most any carrier nowadays.
[Nexus One General] zen kun:
LOL

i buy my N1 without data plan xD

i dont regret since i have wifi around in my work and home and im outside wifi range like 4 hours at day in bus or subway.

and im fine perhaps its like kill a fly wit a cannon

i will get in 10 days my 3g plan (too expensive here >_< )

but yea after months with wifi, all its ok but with 3g AMAZING phone
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
I guess anywhere I have wifi, I have computer access, so I don't really touch my phone during those times.

There's no restrictions from the OS itself regarding data.

If you want super cheap data, go to the t-mo website, set up and account. The when it asks you for your phone type, just put in a generic non-smartphone phone. You'll be able to add the $10 "dumbphone" internet, which is the same as the "android" plan.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Interesting. First time I hear of that. Can't they find out what phone you have once they scan the phone?

[Edit]: I just checked my T-Mobile account and it shows up as Unknown Phone: "Sorry—we’re not sure which phone you’re using, so we’re not able to display resources. Please select a phone".

What's to prevent me from changing my account to the $10 dumbphone plan?
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
Scruples. :p

If you're on contract you won't be able to change the android plan without an ETF.

They surely can scan your imei and figure out which phone you have (ATT does this), but T-Mobile has not not started doing that yet.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
Because T-Mobile is the ****! I cautiously walked away from ATT and Verizon a few years ago and was amazed at what I found in Tmobile, I will never go back
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
Nothing...many other carriers check your imei number but tmobile rarely does anything with it. Try it, the worse that could happen is they figure out you have a smartphone and bump you back up to what you are currently paying. Theoretically there is no difference between the dumbphone and the smartphone variant (im pretty sure).
[Nexus One General] smashpunks:
Minus the trackball and flash for camera oh and customization being Google's baby, I'd say go with the vibrant..

I came from a n1 that I loved dearly, and I was never into games untill I got the vibrant. The true Multitouch vs the n1 is astounding . The n1 sucks horribly at gaming. The fps were OK on n1 but the mt was a killer for games. The vibrants standby is a lot better than the n1 and even usage I get like 15% more usage straight usage... 3g is better on the vibrant and no need to force 3g, edge is also noticeably faster on the vibrant vs n1. The vibrant browser beat n1 on froyo.

Camera is better on the vibrant even with no flash, google night mode. The video camera is also a lot better on the vibrant...

I didn't think super amoled would be much different until I had them side to side at T-Mobile, the vibrant looked much better.

The screen responds a lot better on the vibrant also, I didn't think the .3 inches bigger would make a difference but just looking at the keyboards it really helps...

The n1 has a measly 195 mb for apps, even with apps2sd your storage goes down and I checked memory daily on it, with the vibrant there's 2gb just for apps, another 13gb for movies pics and etc and also memory card slot...

N1 is awesome but I think the vibrant is the best android device on the market. I do miss some things on the n1, but I'd miss more on the vibrant if I went back to n1....
[Nexus One General] htc420:
Thanks for the replies, everyone.

What do you guys think about the HD2? How does that phone compare? It has almost the same specs. I've heard that Android 2.2 is pretty stable on it, I wouldn't mind that phone at all. I can get it for much cheaper than an N1. there are mint condition hd2's for like $250-$280 on craigslist.
[Nexus One General] smashpunks:
Vibrant specs kick the crap out of hd2. Just get a real android phone if that's what ya want. There will never be as stable of a rom on the hd2 than on a real android device..... hd2 is cool, bur I wouldn't buy it just to port android on it.
[Nexus One General] bfspider:
...adding just to back up what the rest of the folks say.

The N1 is a very nice high quality phone. You won't go wrong with getting it now or waiting, if you can, for the next gen stuff (2GHz phones ot multi core CPU phones).

Also it's down the carrier you use as well...
[Nexus One General] htc420:
How much do you guys think I could get for a MINT black mytouch3g? would it make a difference in price if I rooted it and unlocked it as well?

[Nexus One General] htc420:

[Vibrant General] larryccf:
after getting it running on my laptop, i didn't bother to use it to connect to the web - had pdanet and it worked, so i figured i'd leave well enough alone

figuring if samsung does release a OTA update, i'd need it so i tried it tonite, and it was noticeably faster - enough so that i did a speedtest.net (1.31 Mbps), disconnected, re-opened pdanet, speedtest'd at 1.1 Mbps, which is what i've been seeing the past few days, went back to Kies and it came in at 1.34

but the browsing speeds seem faster than the 2 Mbps mathematical difference

FWIW
