[Fascinate General] mexiken:
I too tried both kernels, neither worked.

What worked for me was bootchanger by {n8} I installed that and would recommend it to anyone. Its free, and it downloads and automatically applies the bootanimation. I set that up and installed my peeing on Apple one, and I was ALL GOOD. Worked like a charm. Haven't messed with it cuz well, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"
[Fascinate General] njwrx:
Well I finally got it working. It turns out I need to use adb to push the bootanimation file. If I use Astro Manager or any other program from the phone to transfer, it doesnt work. I guess I learn something new everyday :cool:
[Fascinate General] SirKronan:
Well, I've got a black screen on boot now, and that's all I get, no matter what bootanimation.zip file I choose. I've reflashed the kernal several times, to no avail. The phone works fine, but nothing at all shows up on the screen. I've cleared the cache and all that. Phone is still rooted, and root explorer works.

Any ideas? I've tried everything I can think of and I'm beyond stumped.
[Fascinate General] njwrx:
for what its worth, I copied the bootanimation to both /data/local and /system/media to be safe
[Fascinate General] SirKronan:
I tried that too. Didn't do the trick. I'm still getting blackness with the startup sound. I might do an Odin restore to that factory image and then redo everything again. I really want to see if my home-made startup animation works, but I want to test it on my own phone before posting it online and locking up someone else's.

T-mobile HD2 Update MR Software (Version 3.14.531.1), What is it?

Today T-mobile release a new software update. Does anybody know what it is for?

I assume if you have a rom installed it is no good. I am running Energy Rom, and Radio 2.15.50.14, so I am assuming updating would be a bad idea.

Features of the 3.14.531.1 update

I also had the same question - what is it that changed with the new HTC HD2 ROM? I spent a lot of time searching, and found this:

Pasting the text below, just in case that link dies (I hate it when that happens):

[pasted from phonesreview uk on 10/22/2010]

==============================================

For all you T-mobile HTC HD2 smartphone users out there who have been waiting for an official software update to land, you’ll be happy to know that today is the day you have been waiting for as T-Mobile is to release software update version 3.14.531.1 to the HTC HD2.

According to an article over on Tmonews, the new software update from T-mobile will deliver several fixes along with stability improvements and access to new apps like Amazon MP3 and Shazam. As for those bug fixes…

The new software update will fix such stuff as slow browsing when on Facebook, the inability to delete Gmail messages in the preview screen, Twitter errors, SMS being delivered to the wrong person, and the white screen whilst browsing the net, the inability to hear Visual Voicemail, unable to unlock the device, unable to unlock the HTC HD2 with correct password, and the lack of a space bar on company directory keyboard, and finally the speakerphone doesn’t work after using the Call Assist app to call 611.

HTC HD2 user can download the new software update by visiting t-mobile and following the instruction; however T-mobile will issue a notification by text to HTC HD2 users when the update is ready, which should be today the 19th of October so keep an eye on your text messages and let us know how you get along.

i don't want to blow it!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
no. Once a phone is network unlocked it cannot be locked again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erezgati2:
yes, it will be locked again! But, there is no reason why T-mobile will not request an unlock code from HTC on your behalf. Usually it takes 24-48hrs
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Not correct sir, ons your device is bean unlock't and you upgrade/downgrade your Rom it will not be locked again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yorgosb:
Why you say it's a bad idea...because the official is no good or because you can damage the phone this way ? I went from omega to the 3.14.531.1 and I experience many problems freezes restarts etc ...I think the update damaged the phone (although it was successful)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
no, because it would remove the rom he was using, which he didnt want.

you probably left hspl installed, 3.14 plus hspl = "many problems freezes restarts etc"
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yorgosb:
Ι am no expert but I am sure I replaced HSPL with SPL 2.08

Still I experience all these freezes and restarts with both 2.13.531.1 and 3.14.531.1 versions (in 3.14.531.1 it even freezes when you insert the memory card)

Can it be something else ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
so, is that spl 2.08 or hspl 2.08 or spl 2.08.0000 or hspl 2.08.hspl? clarity please, leaving off the last 4 digits prevents us from double checking your work.

enter bootloader, whats it say next to spl? (all of it, not just the x.xx bit)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yorgosb:
Entering the bootloader right now says 2.10.0000

It must have been changed after flashing the official 2.13.531.1 (via USB)

Prior to doing that I had run the utility hspl3 and chosen 2.08.0000 (there are 2 choices in this utility as you say 2.08.0000 and 2.08.hspl) so (I thought) I had replaced the hspl with the official loader

Does this utility (hspl3) effectively changes the SPL or just updates the displayed number ?

Do you suggest following the micro SD card method to flash and not the USB method ?

I read somewhere that the ONLY way to replace the SPL is by flashing from micro SD...so what is the hspl3 utility for ?

Can you help me with that please ?

I need help because the phone right now although it seems to have been flashed correctly to official 2.13.531.1 and displays 2.10.0000 as it's SPL version freezes and restarts every some minutes...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
thats stock - any ending 0000 is stock

yes, because you chose teh wrong 2.08 (next step) it will be changed by usb flashing. Had you chosen 2.08.hspl, this would still say 2.08.hspl

you replaced stock with stock

completely changes the actual spl software in your phone.

usb, always usb

thats old instructions.

for a start hspl .exeis for applying hspl, not just removing it - you can simply run hspl3 (or hspl4, whichever, makes no difference) - choose an spl ending .0000, hspl is gone. choose one with .hspl and, , , guess, , , yes! it loads hspl onto teh phone.

yep, happens a lot that, especially with stock roms,, give 3.14 a try perhaps.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yorgosb:
3.14.531.1 has more problems...not only it freezes with certain applications (or making phone calls) but it freezes when inserting the microSD card as well...that's why I went to 2.13.531.1...at least I could keep the microSD inside without freezing...

And that's why I think it's not a firmware-software issue...that's what I'm trying to verify...

Now I have another bigger issue...after trying to flash a firmware that I think it wasn't T-Mobile's by mistake (the phone is T-Mobile model) the SPL is now 3.03.0000 and the 2.13.531.1 and 3.14.531.1 firmwares refuse to start flashing

Is there something I can do ?

I want to go back to 2.13.531.1 so I can sent it to T-Mobile

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
Use hspl4, choose 2.08.hspl, reflash 2.13.

Sounds like you flashed a non tmous stock 3.14,,, don't do anything that silly again.

Just confirm for us,,, your send key is green, right?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yorgosb:
Thank you very much I used hspl4 and managed to go back to the proper ROM

As for the send key if you mean the key with the little telephone on it yes it's green...the phone is T-mobile it says so on the top

Now that I have tried 2.10.531.1 - 2.13.531.1 and 3.14.531.1 versions and all 3

suffer from strange freezes and restarts when making phone calls or watching movies from the internet or the storage card (after some time) don't you think it's safe to presume that there is a hardware fault and return it to the vendor ?

Do you think there is something else for me to try ?

Thank you again for your help...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
have you considered the sd card yet? they can cause all kinds of strange behavour.

first off, reflash without the sim or sd in. let the phone set up completely, then load teh sim (not sd yet) and see how it is. if it seems better, prep the sd card. fresh format it, FAT32, full format not quick format. leave it blank at first and see how the phone feels with it loaded.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vision77:
From past experience with all of my previous smart phones the radio firmware upgrade is hardware specific.....So a Samsung radio will not work with HTC(G2) firmware. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yincrash:
for t-mobile, when you're on HSPA or UMTS, it just uses the 3G logo on the notification bar.

you can check at settings->about phone -> status to see what mobile network type you are on. mine says HSDPA right now, but when i'm at home, it usually says HSPA.

when they update your cell site with the HSPA+ cell, you will probably get an increase in speed because they will probably upgrade the internet connection to the cell to support HSPA+ speeds which means you get up to 7.2Mb/s. I think someone said earlier that most 3G sites only have two T1 lines as the backhaul, meaning you will probably get max 1.5Mb/s in a speed test.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackhuny:
Hardware thing. MIP
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjsynkral:
HSPA 7.2 is good enough for me and when HSPA+ rolls out in my area I ought to get closer to that theoretical speed more often. I've seen speeds like 5.9 Mbps on Speedtest.net when I'm near a regular HSPA tower.

I do wish we could mod the icon to display an "H" on HSPA connections like the G2 (G2 shows an "H" for regular HSPA as well as HSPA+). I remember running Klick Hero on my G1 almost a year ago, and getting the H icon from time to time on that old thing!

You can confirm you are on HSPA with the Mobile Signal Widget.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildklymr:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpcameron:
The reason you cannot flash the G2 radio to get HSPA+ on the Vibrant is because the Vibrant DOES NOT HAVE A HSPA+ RADIO. Flashing the radio/modem software onto the Vibrant will not help and will probably damage your handset.

Adding software to the phone to use hardware it does not physically have is pointless.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpcameron:
You don't do anything to "get HSPA working", because it already works. If the cell site your handset is connected to is HSPA, then that is what your handset will connect with.

Just because the icon in the notification bar says "3G", this does not mean that you are not connected to a HS(D)PA network. Check "Settings > About phone > Status > Mobile network type" to check which type of network you are connected to. Mine currently says "HSDPA", but I have a "3G" icon in the notification bar.

i would venture to guess no, because more than the baseband chip would probably need to be included. you'd probably some of the receivers as well. At the very least, the chip marked wimax power amplifier.. http://www.chipworks.com/samsung-epic-4g.aspx

why would you want to do that anyways? the phone isn't designed to support two baseband chips so you probably wouldn't have any way of having both tmo and wimax. might as well just buy both phones

Why would you want WiMAX and TMO at the same time.

Clear's WiMax network is not fully built in yet and only works in certain cities, and Clear's (Sprint) top Wimax speeds are around 4-6MBS unless u have a CINR of over 27 then you could go up to around 9MBS, TMO's Hspa speeds beat out Clear on 90% of my tests and I work for Clear :) ... so that says alot ... We have a G2 in the house and our tower is HSPA+ Pre Launch and its doing 9-10MBS and on the Vibrant 5.5MBS ... In NYC ... T-Mobile is easy at 5-6 HSPA ..... so no real need for WIMAX ... I would sit it out until Clearwire uses more spectrum (Licensed for 120hz and only using 30) or they start there pre LTE testing which they claims is going to be sold at 20MBS/30MBS and 50MBS DL Speed packages ... HSPA+ may be end of life product but it is sure kicking the hell out Clear's WiMAX network .. :)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpcameron:
Correct, HS(D/U)PA and HSPA+ are 3G technologies. Technically they are subsets of 3GPP, which falls under UMTS.

4G technologies are required to reach over 100 Mbps in order to be called such. HSPA+ maxes out at 56 Mbps downstream, and therefore will never be 4G. WiMax is technically 4G, since it can theoretically get 1 Gbps downstream, although the max that Clear is capable of right now is 40 Mbps.
