Any place where i can set the angles ?

I prefer mostly vertical, I hate it when it switches to landscape when i lay down to the side a little.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] electrokitten:
Hello. First I want to thank all of you who develop roms and the like. I have had such a blast over the past month and a half customizing my phone in ways I never thought possible. Last night I ran flashaholicruu.exe on my HTC HD2 Leo. The task29 seemed to work properly, however when I attempted to flash the rom I received errors. I tried Leo_Radio_2.11.50.26.sfx, which had previously worked on my phone. It stopped at 96%. I did the recovery, however the phone now will not even boot the splash screen. It simply vibrates non-stop when I turn it on until I remove the battery. Does anyone have ANY advice at all? Am I able to load a ROM onto the SD card and directly boot from it while my phone is in this state?

I have removed the battery and reinserted it. Did not work.

I have also tried pressing the volume buttons and the power on button to get the bootloader, but just vibrates in the same manner as when I press on button.

Please help!

Thank you

happend to me with a friends phone...i jus replaced it under insurance
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] electrokitten:
Ahh. I wish. T-Mobile is giving me a hard time about replacing it because I was not the original owner of the phone. The phone is only about 3-4 months old though. :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
I had this happen to me.

Try to load it directly into bootloader by holding vol-down when you press power button, then flash another radio (i recommend 2.12.5) then try another ROM thru RUU.

Also, make sure your battery is place in there securely and that all 3 pins from the phone are sticking out.

I had a situation where one of the pins was sticking vertically and the battery was only hitting 2 (from doing too many battery pulls) and it did this weird vibrate splash screen boot sequence.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
You'll need contact details for the original owner, but by law they have to honor the agreement they put in place with them, regardless of whether you are that person or not.

Just get back onto T-Mobile and if they say no then speak to someone higher up. I know this to be the case after selling a palm pre to someone at the beginning of the year and it died on him shortly after.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] electrokitten:
Really? This is good to know. I contacted the original owner. I feel so bad and I hope he doesn't think I am trying to scam him. I just want a working phone and I think that T-Mobile should honor that.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] electrokitten:
I think the bootloader may be gone. :( Does the task29 remove this? I can't get even to the bootloader using the method above (I have tried many times).

Good to know, I will try this. I do have some bent pins.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rgrover:
No task 29 doesn't remove the bootloader, I always use it before flashing a new ROM...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gabbs:
copy the nbh file from the stock rom to the sd card..that usually fix it..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Major_Sarcasm:
Good advice... Now if only he could access the bootloader he'd be sorted ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jigners:
he needs to rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh and pair it with the RUU that came

with that same stock ROM

but then again, if he cant get into bootloader, the phone is definitely bricked
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mskip:
What exactly did you do to try and enter bootloader mode? You said you pressed the volume 'buttons' and the power button but that combination would initiate a Hard Reset and not bootloader mode..

How to get into your Bootloader

1. Turn your phone off

2. Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN then Press and hold the POWER button. After about 3 seconds the tri-coloured screen should appear.

3. To exit Bootloader you need to remove your back cover and pull the battery out for a few seconds, then replace it and press the power button to reboot your phone.

If you cannot get into the bootloader with the above instructions then it looks like you have bricked your device somehow but im not sure exactly how you could do it as task29 doesnt touch HardSPL.

If you can get into bootloader then you can flash a rom back to your device using the sd card method in my guide *HERE*.

Mark.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Captainkrtek:
As Windows Phone 7 was launched today we wanted to put up a poll based on general perception of the device. If you could buy one today, money not being an issue, would you? We want to see whether Windows phone 7 has been received well by the community.

Cheers,

Steve & XDA News Staff
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Wow first one to vote, maybe im just abit excited lol.

Omnia 7 is at the top of my list atm. GSMARENA has a good review of the device already (no idea how they got hold of it)
[Windows Phone 7 General] theomni:
Im gonna hang on to my current device and by a WP7 phone when they start coming out with a second line of phones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sakai4eva:
just bought my desire. WinMo 7 doesn't look too customizable, but only time will tell :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] propagandax:
Former long time windows mobile user, not impressed, Ill stick with my EVO for now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] qipengart:
Going to get a better Android phone I think... probably Samsung Epic 4G now or Evo (more than the WP7) ones now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Intervenient:
Once I see multiple calendar support, we'll talk. As for now: never.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Casey_boy:
Like a lot of people here, I have a HTC HD2 and am running WM6.5 and Android 2.2 on it. So, for me, I'll consider a WP7 device once my HD2 either dies (let's pray it never happens) or maybe in 6-12months when it's time for an upgrade.
[Windows Phone 7 General] maxmig:
Me too.... HD2 forever
[Windows Phone 7 General] Giblet-dono:
Our beloved HD2s can run any OS so why switch to WP7 when the HD2 already runs it (Not public yet!)

The hardware in most (currently presented) WP7 devices is as good as our HD2's

So.. maybe I will buy one if the hardware is superior to the HD2's!!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] GTRoberts:
Um, there is multiple calendar support.
[Windows Phone 7 General] madnish30:
Looks great to me, especially the Dell Venue Pro.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gd761:
Sure, why not. Every HTC phone that I have had was Windows. Why would I give up now? I have played with the HTC EVO running Android, and I do not like it. I prefer Windows. That is my own personal opinion and choice from experience, and somewhat from what I have spoken with other people who have Android phones from different manufactures, which I have personaly tried and played with for a while with each and every one of them.

I just prefer Windows over anything else.
[Windows Phone 7 General] davidgk:
maybe and unsure is about the same.

im hoping it can be ported to the hd2. that'll save me some money :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] truffle1234:
for sure i will buy the WP7 phone HD7 i think... as i am HTC fan as well as WM.
[Windows Phone 7 General] HD2_addict:
Not at this time. I love the interface. I just don't like the rest of the story. The system just locks you in. Perhaps if could be jailbroken, that would change things.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Grimeh:
Well I got the HTC Desire on Android 2.2 and thus far I don't see anything I prefer in the Win 7 phones that would make me switch. If anything it has less functionality at present with no cut & paste, no tethering and no SD card. I do like some of the features though but will wait and see how they develop this, so for now it's a no.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kresky:
I think Microsoft has missed a trick with the launch of WP7, by basing the OS entirely for phone devices. As with Android it can be used not only on phones but tablets as well and judging by how the community response to the Sammy Tab is high with enthusiasm i think MS should have looked further forward than just Windows 'Phone' 7 and evolved further ahead with appying its new OS to tablets as well, even if not making it available now but atleast showing a mock up to show its potential of being more than just a phone OS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] alexhope21:
What?!? no cut & paste and no sd cards? where can I read up on WP7 features?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohiojoe:
Also long time and big time WinMo fan, but I got the EVO and after rooting it, nothing can come close. Win7 simply went the way of iPhone, by locking everything down, so even if it weren't for the rooted EVO being so damned awesome and far above every other phone out there, I wouldn't get a Win7 phone out of iPhone-hatin' spite.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gd761:
Hopefuly this is released to market for Sprint, and if so, this is the phone that I would want.

http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2010/10/11/hands-on-with-the-htc-hd7-pro/
[Windows Phone 7 General] alexhope21:
To me it is looking like Linux is the global OS which people have running on phones, tablets, netbooks and PCs and its free, with development i can see it becoming a much bigger thing then it is today.

But yes I would have loved WP7 to just resemble my W7 PC, with mobile technology inbuilt, sigh, one can dream :p
[Windows Phone 7 General] bijan.:
this windows are same as other Microsoft product with many and long Advertise and with low efficiency like windows vista but it is a beginning.I waiting for next generation.on the other hand WM6.5.5 is a good OS that Microsoft work on it for a long time and WM7 have long path to take the lead.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kalhimeo:
For me this initial WM7 OS release is not acceptable for a day to day use.

Missing:

- Usable start menu. Really how can they release such an app launcher with never ending list of icons ?

- "Today screen" customisation. I mean real customisation like on Android or actual WM6, not their useless way to pin animated items to Today. In the end it only looks like adding a "favorite" shortcut.

- Copy/paste

- Multitasking

I like:

- According to the videos, the OS looks very responsive and fast.

- The standardization of their interface, I mean you can be in any Hub it is the same principle to switch between screens (sliding left/right), to access menu buttons, etc.

- The "light" and "clean" feeling of the interface. Very sober, informations are clearly visible, notification and menu buttons which automatically hide, ...

So personally I think that my next device will be Android, as soon as they fully integrate the exchange synchronisation of Tasks (without additional software like today).

If WM7 survives and develops with the important features listed above, maybe I would consider this OS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kresky:
Win7 is definitley for the desktop, but for mobiles alike, the new WP7 is how the OS should be but there marketing strategy should have gone beyond the phone device to include larger mobile devices, even a hint to its capabilities would have got developers and techies thinking ahead and push for it to be implemented in such a scenario.
[Windows Phone 7 General] benoitb85:
Not really interested in WP7. I like WM6.5 on the HD2 enough and love Android.

I'll keep an eye on WP7 in the following months but not expecting much from it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jinan:
The unsure segment seems to be more than definite buyers
[Windows Phone 7 General] inferus:
Upto the community

I don't think its appealing right out of the box. Let see what the community makes of it. Then you can ask me this question again.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Saint George:
Been using an Android build on my HD2 realised how good that OS is. I'll wait for the WP7 port for the Leo. When It's time to change I'd have a glance of both OS. My vote: Unsure
[Windows Phone 7 General] Texas01:
I'll give it a shot when my contract is up. It does, however, depend on how the development community accepts it, and how quickly they develop Apps for it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lauchon:
YES!!!

but only HTC...
[Windows Phone 7 General] sumedh_vsk:
for sure... will buy HD7:D:D, no doubt in that....but will wait for couple of months....:rolleyes:

most of the time when a new mobile comes out , it has some flaws...

(just an example )something similar to iphone 4 . lot of hype before launch. in the end it had problems..so think i will wait for sometime before buying it...

i am somewhat worried about the kick stand for HD7.. might loosen up after repeated usage..

cant wait to get my hands on the 7s...:D:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dulanic:
Since I just picked up a epic I don't see getting or even considering a WM7 phone for at least 2 years and I doubt it even then.
[Windows Phone 7 General] EazyVG:
After 4-5 years with Windows Phone, I am switching from my HTC TP2 to Android HTC Desire Z. As per Windows 7, at least as of today it has technically nothing new, except the UI, and lacks a lot that WinMo 6.5 had to offer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] elander:
doesn´t seem as customizable, so for now I´ll stick with my (really) old kaiser running android. Let´s see how this evolves.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freco:
I 'll stick with Android at the moment. I use to be a windows mobile fun but once I tried Android I loved it. Maybe much later...

PS. Never iOS. I have iPad (perfect mobility) but iOS makes it only for my daughter to play games.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Showtime7:
I for one won't be buying a new device as I have an HD2, so it will most likely be ported. And if not Android is cool. But I'm hoping for WP7 because, even though it's less customizable, it would be the most convenient OS I think to run on a phone. It just makes everything easier. After seeing the demo, I like how when you type it's like you're in Office Word, the red line comes up if it thinks you misspelled and you can get a list of suggestions. This will be a life saver when it comes to texting and e-mail. I also like how everything important is right there on the home screen. People complaining about no start menu... the home screen IS the start menu.

The part I'm most excited about is what apps will be developed on WP7. I think it will be on par with iPhone's apps and better than Android's market.

Oh and copy/paste will be in an update early 2011 they say... So everybody stressing out over it can put that to rest.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pederbar:
+1 Dont see that much differences from HD2 to HD7 (camera etc), so I will keep my WinMo/Android-HD2 for quite a while longer...:) Love my HD2 and all the WinMo/Android-versions.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Hammerfest:
the god awful UI + retarded 3 button limitation... no thanks... 3 buttons arent enough to enumerate all the functionality packed in what we expect of a "Windows Phone"...

WM6.5 or Android FL
[Windows Phone 7 General] nawfboy09:
I'm thinking I will get a WP7 I think they will be able to port Android once more and dual boot
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigJayDogg3:
Will I buy one? Yes.

Will I buy one of these just announced phones? No.

I'd already made a decision to buy one of the first rounds of devices based upon what I already knew of the OS, but the phone has to be on AT&T, has to have a screen larger than 3.5 inches (preferably 4 inches), and has to have a hardware keyboard. I personally think the lack of external storage is stupid, especially since these "multimedia phones" don't top 16 gigs of storage.

If I could stick a keyboard under the Samsung Focus, that would be the perfect phone for me. I'd even be willing to settle for the HTC 7 Pro.

But since I'm in no hurry to buy a new phone since I just got a Captivate.

Hey, HTC! Make a HD7, 32 gigs or more of storage, and give it the Touch Pro 2's keyboard. I don't care if it runs Android or WP7. That there is my dream phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] astraelraen:
I was dead set on waiting until later this year to buy WP7, I put off buying another smartphone for 4 months while I waited for official release time frame. Once they announced no Verizon until next year that killed it for me. In my area Verizon is #1 by a longshot for coverage, there is no substitute.

The sad thing is I really wanted to give WP7 a try, but unless Android drops the ball in future releases why leave Android, its a pretty sweet and very customizable OS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nevralgeek:
As a ZUNE HD owner, I'm totally in love with the interface.

It's just a shame they used these blue squares, but I like the way it works, the reactivity : that's the smoother devices I've ever seen.

But I bought an HD2, with the hope I'll be able to put WP7 on it.

I'm still waiting, and I hope it's gonna be possible, in order to use, or at least try WP7 before I buy a WP7 phone.

I'm not really ok with the datas hub, that's why I don't like Android. Don't like social networks, telling what I'm doing to everyone... So wait and see.

But Windows Phone 7 is the best smartphone OS, it's again a perfect work from Microsoft.

I hope they will rule mobile phones market. They deserve it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] athame:
Exactly! Like 8 MP Camera... HD recording... > 1 mhz processor... Better battery... and a strong WP7 appstore support... for now, HD2 is good enough for me... I'll just wait for the upcoming WP7 OS for HD2...
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
hmmmm

I would rather wait. I think Windows Phone 7 is still in early stages, hope t will evolve with time, until it evolves i would love to keep my desire with me. and specially gingerbread around the corner i will definitely not buy a wp7 device at least this year.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mvenneker:
i am very interested. i like the looks of WP7. although i am not impressed by the new phones which are shown atm[ specs-wise].

as a former wm 6.5 user, who switched to android [ cheers @ Galaxy S ] i guess i will stick a few months with this and in march 2011 when it's time to renew my 2nd phone subscription i might take a WP7 phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pirate1640:
Why to get a phone that will be less than the one you got. HD2 runs everything and i am sure that in few months wm7 will be running smoothly.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vwood2121:
i vote yes and no

yes if att would stop getting crappy htc phones, seems like they keep tryng to ruin their business. why cant they get the phones that tmobile or verison gets. if they would just get a good htc phone id buy wm7, no matter what it costs. dont want to change service, att needs to realize they are gettin screwed and quit gettin inferior phones. lol
[Windows Phone 7 General] jflexe99:
I would if I didn't just get my captivate 2 months ago and wasn't in LOVE with it...plus since AT&T updated upgrade fees to 200 instead of 75....yea...

W7 phones look great in a lot of ways...very interesting. Plus seeing how its all new, maybe a good years wait would be worth seeing how the software and hardware work out in consumers hands.
[Windows Phone 7 General] M-en-M:
I won't buy a WP7 device, as they simply do not offer enough hardware advances, and the web-browser is nowhere near Android's.

And really, that's what's most important to me (aside from making phone calls, sending messages, receiving e-mails, taking quick snapshots and listening to music, which both do equally well), the web browser, I don't really care about apps of sorts, or games. I just want a fast, complete web browser.

That said, when it's ported to the HD2, I'll definitely try it out.

And it's still a really competetive product, for those coming from WinMo/Blackberry/Symbian/the iPhone. (Amazingly smooth, and it's got a fair lot of great games to start with. Would you be interested in those.)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Rouz.:
that would be my dream phone too :rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 General] Andrewtst:
Windows phone 7 will be my next target. :-)

either Samsung Omnia 7 or HTC HD7 :-D
[Windows Phone 7 General] retsam88:
No copy paste? Thank you then. Going to stick with older devices like Windows Mobile or android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Omega Ra:
http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/11/copy-and-paste-coming-to-windows-phone-7-in-early-2011/

coming soon to a WP7 device near you..
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
Definately! I was an avid WinMo user against Android/iPhone/WP7, but since trying Android on HD2, I'm definately open to anything now. I really love Android and use it 100% of the time now.

I've changed my thinking from "I want to be able to do anything I want to my phone, spend countless hours customizing, etc." to, "As long as they get it right, it's nice to not have to customize EVERYTHING!"

It seems like Microsoft put a lot of effort into making the OS awesome so I will definately be buying one for TMOUS when the HD7 is released.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Sledgeman:
Wtf!!! No Xbox Live in Sweden!?!?!? Ok, so that was one of the reasons i wanted to buy a WP7 phone. I was all pepped up and ready to order a phone as soon as possible but now it's really not that attractive anymore. Well, i guess i'll be looking at other phones then. :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] iceblade997:
I think i will...

i just wish the 7 Pro was available at launch, instead of 2011...
[Windows Phone 7 General] JonnieLasVegas:
I voted no, only because the option I need isn't available. I might get one once they have something FAR superior to the HD2, including customization & capacity to run multiple OS's, which I don't see happening for at least a couple more years. So I really have no desire to jump ship as of now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MilkPudding:
I love Android now. So even if I'm gonna get Winmo 7 phone some day, it won't be any time soon.

And I never buy the first generation of new gadgets. Never.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Signo371:
Personally, I think the phone is well marketed now. While I love the ability to change my HD2 at my will, I would love a phone that works consistently and manages my life in a central environment. HTC Sense does this but it is not part of the phone "OS". I want a phone that keeps me entertained and keeps me happy to show people. When people asked me about my HD2 when I first got it, I'd go to show them something and it would freeze up. I'd have to restart and they'd wonder why a person had to restart a phone... Needless to say, it was embarrassing when I had talked the phone up so much.

On a final note, the WP7 OS is for me. A consistent phone with decent battery life and an alarm that I know will wake me up in the morning (sometimes the phone would get the greyish screen of death in the night. Lol) is what I need.

With school mounting up against me and life getting more complex, I do need to "look up" from my phone and live. Thanks WP7!
[Windows Phone 7 General] frottage:
I think the poll is a little ambiguous

as has been mentioned "unsure" and "maybe" are very similar - as for myself I am about to replace my handset but it will not be a W7 phone as i think they are still catching up with iOS and more specifically Android. My next handset will be Desire HD - will I take a WP7 hanset in the future - possibly but as things stand I remain to be convinced Microsoft have a killer device. They have not brought a "game changer" or any "must have" features to this platform.

In the early days WinMo and WinCE were an attempt at converting "windows" to a mobile device - which was flawed - the new product is designed as a truely mobile OS the same as iOS and Android are - what i want to know is where is the innovation ?

Also the inclusion of Xbox live and Zune make me question this as a serious business device.

Thats my feelings - so thats Desire HD for me
