First of all I want to thank you @guhl99 and @scotty2. Great job!

I´ve unlocked my G2 and now it can use any SIM.

I´m having the same problems with wi-fi error. The same described by the user GPOU and HERSAM. Any idea about how to solve this?

Thx!

[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Well there is an issue described regarding the WIFI here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Building_Kernel_from_source (See section "Compiling wifi kernel module").

I could provide such a module but I would rather advise you to either:

- If you want cyanogen anyway: install the complete Cynagenmod-6.1-RC3 that you can find here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#HTC_Vision

- If you want to stay rather stock: go back to the stock (or OTA) kernel

Get the boot image with the stock kernel here: http://www.thinkthinkdo.com/boot.img ot the image with the OTA-kernel (if you applied the OTA) here http://www.thinkthinkdo.com/boot-ota.img.

Install it to the boot.img (or boot-ota.img) using fastboot as you did with the boot-new.img:

First boot your G2 into fastboot mode (press Power Button and the trackpad Button until the screen with the surfing androids appear and it says FASTBOOT or FASTBOOT USB in red).

(note-- on the Mac, you may want to say "fastboot-mac" instead of "fastboot" below)

(On your PC)

If you did not apply the OTA:

fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash boot boot.img

If you did apply the OTA:

fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash boot boot-ota.img

Please provide feedback!
[G2 and Desire Z General] xinchola:
Thx for your feedback guhl99!

I will try your instructions as soon as possible because I´m not with my cell phone here. I will provide a feedback after this.

Hey, I have ubuntu Live cd, So what are the linux live instructions? I just type out the dd commands on the linux terminal?
[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Yes,

but you have to copy the file mmcblk0p7-new.img to a place that is accessible to the live linux.

And after the dd commands you copy it back to somewhere where you have the hex-editor and the adb.

Or you just wait one or two more days until scotty2 has finished the automatic (1-click) version
[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Hi!

Please install back the OTA-kernel (you did apply the OTA according to your Baseband).

See this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9499766&postcount=146

This should at least fix your wifi problem.

Hi Guhl99!!

I did what you said!! Now everything is fine!! I have wifi and no network error!!

I used the OTA boot and it worked perfectly!!

One more time I have to thank you!! Great Job!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] hersam:
Hi Guhl,

It solved the wifi problem after apply boot-ota.img

But still no network.

I did check out at *#*#4636#*#*

at phone information

I can't changed the network to gsm only it always back to the previous

option wcdma preferred.

This network option will keep safe if I choose wcdma preferred, gsm (auto prl) and gsm/cdma (auto prl) ... BUT NOT for "GSM ONLY" (I can't safe this option).

In guest something problem with configuration or selection frequency.

Any idea how to solve this problem.

Note : that all unlock status give: SuperCID, S-Off, SimLock = 00 and RadioLock = 00.

Thanks for help
[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Hersam!

I really like to help you, but I need a logcat of your radio from you.

Please do the following:

Turn your phone off and attach it to your PC using USB.

Then open a terminal (or command window if on windows)

(In the terminal)

adb logcat -b radio > lc_radio.txt

Turn on your phone and let it boot.

When booted go to the network settings and scan for networks.

Let it scan for up to one minute or till it fails.

Then terminate the adb logcat in the terminal using <Ctrl-C>.

Create a posting here and attach the lc_radio.txt

I will look at it and try to find your problem.

have fun

Hersam!

I can not see anything wrong in your logs, it reads the IMSI (which means that it is unlocked) and everything else. But what I am missing is a AT+COPS=? in the log.

This would be the command when you scan for networks.

Did you even go to "Settings - Wireless & network - Mobile networks - Network operators"? because this is the moment when it should scan for networks.

If it does not do it automatically you might want to try the "Search network" in this dialog.

Please do this and create another logcat while doing so.

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] hersam:
I did 2 times Search Network until error message displayed on the screen

Attached the latest logcat.

Anyway I also try use AT command :

AT+CFUN

AT+COPS?

I just successfully rooted the phone and verified supercid, s-off, etc. The G2 is still giving me the "No SIM card. Emergency calls only" however.

After *#*#4636#*#* I'm now able to successfully change preferred network type to GSM only, GSM auto, etc. whereas before it immediately reset to "unknown."

Scanning for networks comes back with "Error while searching for networks."

I'm a T-Mobile USA customer but for some reason it's not reading any of the 3 SIM cards I've tried. They all work fine in other phones. I was hoping s-off would help but it has not as of yet. Any ideas?

Hi guys.. im from brazil and this is happening to my htc g2.. im pretty worried because i am not an advanced user and I don't know where to begin to get this problem fixed. Is there any tutorial, a step by step guide? Does this problem really have a solution or do I have to return the phone?

Im very sad about this.. i want this phone so much.
[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Hi !

Yes it can be solved, and yes there is a step by step solution.

Follow the steps at http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2 until

"Now you can try using a new SIM card to verifiy that it worked ..."

This rooting method will bring you permanent root-acces, security unlock of the radio and will repair your corrupted SIMLOCK that prevents you from scanning for networks.

If you want to check first that you really have the problem that is described here then follow the steps at http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#3._.28OPTIONAL.29_Verify_you_did_it_right first.

In your case the command AT@SIMLOCK?40 will return something arbitrary (not 00 and not 01).

To do the check procedure you will have to do the TEMPROOT part of the above procedure first because you need root-access to the phone.

If the instructions there seem to complicated for you, then either find somebody who can help you or wait another some days until we come up with an automated 1-click solution.

One last word from my side. We love to help people here, but if you would have taken the effort to read this thread or google just a little bit than you would have found the solution on your own.

Have fun - Guhl

1.

Please, im not sure what this "Mount SD card by phone" means

how can do the step 6?

Make sure your phone's sdcard is mounted by your phone and not your computer when following these instructions. Also ensure that you have at least 5MB free on your sdc?

Settings -> sd card & phone storage -> mount SD card or unmount SD Card (?)

2. I installed SDK and Java SE, but im not sure if it is working properly and if the "ADB" is installed. When installing archives, this showed up:Downloading SDK Platform Android 1.5, API 3, revision 4

3. on the cmd window.. i accessed the folder from gfree.. and put the first comand line.. the message was this: $ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable comand or batch file..

sorry if this is stupid or primary question, but never done such thing in my life, and I really want to use my phone.. not fair :(.

All widgets, or just the ones you messed with?

As for WidgetLauncher, about every 6-8 weeks (ie: when I reboot) it seems like I recall it doesn't come up quite right from reboot, but if I launch it manually it's fine after. Not sure if it's a timing thing or what.

And of course I'm sure you've made sure these widgets aren't using Froyo Apps2SD (not Apps2Ext, that's fine) because widgets don't play from SD.

Method B - Manual copying via Root Explorer - for root user only

* Uninstall your current copy.

* Manual remove from /data/app if you can't uninstall manually.

* Copy my MOD copy to /system/app via root explorer.

* Before copying, make sure click the Mount R/W button for write access in root explorer.

* Set permission to rw--r--r

* Restart the phone.

* Open up your WidgetLocker, goto Settings -> Look & Feel -> Slider & Layout and choose iPhone.

I'm considering selling my MyTouch3g 32a for a HD2 device... But, I need to know some things before I make this move.

It looks like you can't yet replace the WinMo 6.5 with Android, so it has to run off SD. At least that's what I can infer. How does this effect performance?

Is battery life good on the HD2? My MyTouch3g can get about 17-18 hours off the charger.

What does and doesn't work on the HD2 running Android? Any quirks I should know about? ...Is it stable and reliable enough to be a daily driver?

Also since I'm on T-Mobile, I'd be looking for a T-Mobile branded HD2... does this matter?

Sorry for all the noob questions.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fruchtfliege:
replacing winmo will be possible in near future by a nand rom. i guess noone knows by now what will work better with a nand rom. most people think that battery life time will increase dramatically, but i won't count on that...

for me, running android from sd-card has no disadvantages but as i said before, we have to wait for nand roms.

with new kernels like S1 or S2 from mdeejay battery life is great (for me). it lasts minimum 24 hours on normal usage.

as far as i know there is just one big and some small issues with android on hd2:

big one: data disconnects with ppp. this is nearly fixed for me with S1 kernel, but approx. once a day i still get data lost...

small one(s): very few touchscreen freezes (escpecially when trying to answer a call).

just now i can't remember other issues, but since about 2 months winmo is just used for booting android on my hd2.

my conclusion: android is a very well daily driver
