[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] intelintelintel:
after a few days of playing around with android on my hd2, ive got to say im extremely impressed. both with the developers who made it and with the OS itself. however, after all is said and done ive also come to appreciate windows mobile alot too. it may not be super flashy, but it is by far the most functional OS on the planet.

im switching back to windows mobile, perhaps permanently. there are however a few things im going to miss about android.

1) the keyboard. i remembered the good old days of my iphone (which i could only stand for abt 2 weeks) when i wasnt afraid of typing long documents and facebook msgs.. the only difference i see between the android keyboard and the hd2 keyboard is the lack of the arrow keys in the android.. which makes it SO much better..

2) the browser.. both the default and skyfire are probably lightyears ahead of windows mobile browsers. and that really hurts to say.. they were fast, supported flash better, got stuck less.. all on an experimental android rom that still isnt finalised!

my point is.. is it possible to get the android keyboard/browser working in my hd2? if not, the keyboard atleast should be very easy to develop. you would start out with the normal hd2 keyboard and take out the stupid arrow keys and make all the other keys bigger and more android/iphone like and voila!

the hd2 is an amazing phone, WITH an AMAZING OS, but these few setbacks are the one that matter to the first time user, which in my opinion are why windows mobile is less popular..

can someone please help me out?

Guyz,

First of all sorry to put this thread here. I know this is for android software. But i think this is only the place where i can get more people have sharp knowledge about android and kernel.

The problem is we are having a phone that is "HTC MEGA" with MSM7225 processor. We want to port android on this phone. But due to proper knowledge of android kernel it is bit hard for us.

WHAT WE HAVE IN OUR HAND NOW:------

1) Patched "haret.exe" for MSM7225.

2) A some of $87 in hand (we will collect up to $280 by Saturday of coming week.)

Thats all.

Now we need help of you guys. If anybody has any short of knowledge and know how to make it happen. They are most welcome.

Did you flash all three files (pda,phone and csc)?

Also, are you talking about mobile network for calls/texts or data only?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] uneek-n1:
Thank you for responding.

Yes i flashed all together.

My Calls / Text is not working...the status bar does not show the connection.

I thought the problem was with the task killer hence that too has been un installed.

I did notice that when i switched sim cards and restarted the network came on but the phone would restart and the network would disappear.

Hello,

I recently bought a HTC HD2 and gotten unlocked to work with my ATT sim card also I had someone install the 2.2 Froyo Android software using Cyanogen Mod 6. Since I had the phone I have only been using Edge network and I know for sure we have 3g coverage. How can I get my 3G network to work on my phone? Please help. I am a newb when it comes to cell phones.

Thanks

Matt
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazard99:
someone correct me if i am wrong but the 3g bands for att and t-mo are different so even if you have 3g coverage you would only get edge. For faster speeds youll have to use wifi.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaekidd1012:
Do you have a Telstra-branded HD2? IIRC, Telstra uses the same 3G bands as AT&T. In that case you should be able to get 3G. Otherwise, the unbranded & T-Mo branded HD2s wouldn't work with AT&T 3G.

No 3G on the TMOus HD2 on ATT

Unless you have the Telstra HD2 (there will be a T in an oval on the back bottom cover), you won't get 3G on ATT. The Telstra model is the only one with the ATT 3G band (the 850mhz UMTS band).

You will ALSO need to have 850mhz ATT coverage in the areas where you live and travel to get 3G on that model.

Hope this helps...

Hi!

I was wondering if there is a way to change that? Installing a new ROM, a software or something!! I bought the TMo HD2 and brought it to South America. Here we use the 850 MHz frequency for 3G, and I just found out the HD2 works with 3G networks in the 1700 and 2100 MHz frequencies =( Is there a way I can change that ???

I went and bricked my SGS again and thought great.. time to exchange again right? Wrong.

My Bell SGS is one of those cute ones that has no download mode. I thought all hope was lost. It wasn't.

It's simple, adb reboot recovery works fine. But trying to adb is a pain in the ass. Easy solution.

1) Get the one click root/unroot tool: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=742403

2) Use the tool--any setting is fine, all we're using this for is getting into recovery mode. I clicked unroot 2.1.

3) Surprise! The tool can communicate with the phone just fine even though the phone is failing to boot. You're now in recovery mode.

4) Wipe the data and the cache on the device, and you're good as new. No flashing of update.zip required.

:D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mithent:
I guess that:

adb reboot recovery

would also work then?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scouzer:
You know, I have no idea. I'm assuming so since that's what I believe his software calls upon, but I've never actually tried it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
define your "bricked"

did you get this screen of

pc-!-phone ?

because in that screen, the phone is not recognized by windows when you plug in the USB cable

so ADB doesn't work when it's the phone is not listening to the PC
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scouzer:
No, I did not get that screen. For me, it just blacked out and locked on bootup.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
then that is not bricked

that is just a software error

when you are truly bricked the phone will not do anything but show you only that screen
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scouzer:
Well I did not know this, and I doubt many people here do either. So I think it's helpful.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:

* adding it to wiki
[Galaxy S I9000 General] galaxysman:
Hope I never see that screen then, so if you see that is it game over....no chance of recovery?

If your phone is 3 button disabled, no chance of recovery. If you have 3 button recovery enabled, it's no big deal.

Someone please help :)

I was trying to run the DTJG4 with the 512 PITT through ODIN when it failed.

I tried again and it didnt flash, so I tried rebooting the phone.

Now I get nothing... just a black screen.

Plug in the power, nothing, plug in the USB, nothing.

Battery removed several times and tried powering up just with power and battery, and trying 3 button combo that didnt work before, but still nothing.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Electroz:
I had I9000M do this, 3 button mode was not working and had to return it. It happened during a kies update, luckly, 20 minutes after I had bought it. So I went to a different store and got my current phone. This phone is the best one of the three I've owned. Either 3 button mode just works, and the g-sensor calibration is much closer to being dead on. So there are good ones out there.

I've had 3 total. Here's a breakdown.

1. Purchased august 6th. First phone sold in the store. Download and Recovery modes worked 25% of the time. G-sensor calibration was horrible. Also could not be unlocked.

2. August 21st. Could not get the phone into either mode with button presses. Phone unlocked, but bricked via kies update. Never got to test the g-sensor. Last phone in same store as first purchase.

3. August 21st. Near perfect phone. 100% sucess gettung into download or recovery modes. Unlocked easily, and G-sensor is just slightly off. No need for calibration, unless using as leveling device. Purchased at a store that got initial stock on august 8th.

So, there ARE good phones out there. But the majority by the sounds of it are less than good. Which is unforunate.

As a former samsung owner as well, this is dissapointing. The original galaxy i7500L is still officially running android 1.5 in canada. I just hope and pray samsung doesn't drop this device from their dev cycles. And better yet.. Can fix all these problems with an update somehow...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totoguy:
So, only that specific screen counts as a brick?

On mine the 3 button combo doesn't work (I can only get to some weird "upload mode"), and the phone is stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000" screen when I boot it up.

Does that mean I should still be able to use ADB with it? The PC seems to recognize the phone (as "SAMSUNG USB Composite Device"), as well as Odin, but ADB doesn't.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] odyssey61:
Only if you cant get into Download Mode via the 3 button method.

That is not bricked its just crashed. Use the one click root to get into recovery and then wipe the data and cache and you should be fine.

ADB should as the usb files have been loaded.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mike.sw:
i think op has to change the topic. can be misleading. for now there's no way to unbrick a phone with no 3 button download mode...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i agree

however there are rumors that samsung might release a fix along with froyo for people with the 3 button disabled.

we'll see if that is true or not when Froyo arrives next month, which is just a few days away
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totoguy:
You've just given me a small glimpse of hope... So you're saying I should try the method in the OP?

Would it work if ADB currently can't find my phone? I was assuming the tool uses ADB or something similar in the background.

Any idea why it's not, then?

I apologize for all the questions, but after a few days of trying everything in the forums, I was certain I'll need to ship my SGS back to Germany (got it while on vacation), and you're the first person to make me think otherwise.

Will appreciate any further help :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
do you see the bricked phone picture a few post above?

ADB will not see the phon when the phone is bricked, so the ADB solution is no good.

you need the hardware 3 button download mode to save your phone

you can try HEATING the phone up, as mentioned in this other topic

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=754673&page=3
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totoguy:
If you're referring to me, then like I said, that screen isn't showing up for me. I just get the "Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000" screen and it never gets any further than that.

I thought that counts as a brick as well, if I can't get to download mode (and I can't) with the 3 button combo, but odyssey61 is claiming otherwise.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
if you can boot far enough to see the Galaxy S logo then you are not completely dead

if lucky you should be able to make use of ADB to talk to the phone when it's still booting at the logo screen
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totoguy:
And yet, I can't. Odin recognizes the phone, but ADB doesn't. Does that mean I have a driver problem, or am I missing something else?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
no, it just means the USB was not set to Debug mode in application settings

well just get Odin3, and a good firmware, flash it again

that will get it working again
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totoguy:
Odin identifies my phone but can't flash it - because I'm not in Download Mode.

The whole reason I want to get ADB working, is to reboot to Download Mode with it...

I had set the phone to Debug Mode before, but I'm starting to think that the either the setting was reset later for some reason, or the phone itself is indeed bricked, and just not showing the common signs for it...

Lets say that Debug Mode isn't on. Considering the button combo isn't working, are there any other options left? What I've learned so far would point to "no" :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
have you tried the 3 key combo method to get into download mode?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] totoguy:
As I've mentioned before, the combo doesn't work, and I've tried every method and variation mentioned throughout the forum.

Just had my SGS crash this week-end. Stupid facebook widget crashed, I then rebooted the phone, and the next thing I know everything crashes now (emails, etc) and my SIM card is not recognized, wifi doesn't work, reset to factory defaults crashes, etc.

Tried the 3 button recovery mode but it is apparently disabled. ADB fails to see my phone (USB debugging is enabled), Samsung codes do not work either since they launch apps that crash, nothing works. I'll have to get a new one and I hope it has the 3 button recovery enabled.

Who at Beel or Samsung thought that disabling the 3 button recovery mode was a good idea? I mean, it's like selling a car with the hood welded shut. :mad:
