Tnx for your comments.

I will try to see how it works without the 2 apps mentioned in my first post.

But working with them gave me realy good results.

I will report back when i got news working without it.

Finding the battery drain in "mAh" puzzled me for a while too.

Go on Android Market and find something called "Current Widget".

Go to your homescreen and place it there and it'll give you a reading :)

Also, I'm currently using MDJ Evo Sense rEVOlution 2.3 with MDJ's R2 Kernel.

I haven't messed with SetCPU much, just made sure it was overclocked and set on "Smartass".

I'm getting 5 mAh at this very moment :)

Here is my setup:

ROM: Energy GTX 2.5 - fully functional sense WinMo;

Radio: 2.15.50

Android Build: HyperDroid 1.7 with michyprima's kernel (OCd / undervolted), CM6.1

NO SETCPU INSTALLED - real gain I got in battery life when I uninstalled SetCPU (why - cuz of OCd and undervolted CPU - conflict drains battery).

I got CONSTANTLY 3-4-5-6mA in stand by and battery easily lasts over a full 24hr days with my average use...

This has nothing to do with half a things for me that you listed above but it all depends what kind of device you got - and it may work just fine for someone
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mageous:
Can you provide the info on the SD card you are using? I'm using Sandisk class 2 8GB, it's draining about 7-9mA, I read on another thread that Kingston Class 4 8GB drain even less.

Hi, my english is not the best but I will try my best. ;)

Got some problems with my HTC HD2 (no custom ROM) and Active Sync 4.5 - I cant connect the Phone to the PC. My computer (WinXP) shows the "connecting..." dialog but nothing happens...

The troubleshooting Program says there is a problem with the IP-configuration...

I unchecked the "high speed data transmission" in "USB to PC", reinstalled ActiveSync, tryed the FixMapi command, restart the DHCP service, installed "ActiveSyncMode.sa.cab" on my phone (don't work), (of cause) deactivate Noton Internet Security 2011... no change.

Strage thing No.1: The Active Sync Program on my HD2 crash instandly after start! I don't know why. Is there a original Active Sync .cab to reinstall it? :confused:

Strage thing No.2: I used AS in June without problems but I deleded it some months ago... after reinstall it stops working.

Any ideas? I don't want to hardreset my phone again... :(

Hello fellow HD2 users,

i'm a noob at all of this rom stuff and i've seen some great roms out there to try out but with my luck i'll just brick my phone nevertheless i would definitely try the windows phone 7. is there a rom available?please help out this noob:(

[HD2 General] jsmccabe78:
welcome to xda.

to answer you question, no there is no wp7 rom available for hd2. there are themes that emulate it.

additionally, this has been asked with new threads about it quite a bit...please do use the search function.

again, welcome.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Wow...awesome answer! Saved me the trouble;)
[HD2 General] DaveNavy:
Really?

I saw a video over on BGR website showing a working port of windows phone 7 on an HD2 Here is the link if you want to check it out, but I would love Windows phone 7 on my HD2 if at all possible.

http://www.bgr.com/2010/11/07/windows-phone-7-ported-to-the-htc-hd2-again-shows-more-promise/
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
We have all seen that video, and it's currently unknown if that is real, or just an emulator image...because it certainly isn't RTM, nor are the chinese releaseing the image to anyone.
[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
Looks legit running side by side with the HTC Surround though doesn't it? I guess it could be black magic.
[HD2 General] DaveNavy:
Really because to my knowledge XDA China is responsible for the port and video,...Guess I could be wrong...I always am according to the wife LOL;)
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Right, but XDA China is in no way affiliated with XDA-Developers, and the chinese are not releaseing any information on their "port" until, according to their words, "enough people are mad enough that it's not out yet". So yeah, personally I think it's fake.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
In another thread, another Chinese guy called the number from the video a couple times and talked to the maker of the video. First he said that if the rom was flashed, there was no way of going back to winmo... then the last time he talked to him he said something about it being false.

What I heard, and what I believe to be true now, is that the Chinese got whole of one of the wp7 test hd2s that m$ used to test and develop wp7. Its well known they used hd2 to test in the early stages, and it doesn't surprise me that one of these devices surfaced. Unfortunately, I have a feeling we will never know for sure what was used for the video. I think we're still a long way away from using wp7 on our hd2.
[HD2 General] DaveNavy:
Now that makes total sense, I can see how that could have unfolded.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MaliciousClout:
Hello all-

I am new to the forum and have followed the forum for only about a week.

I am planning to buy 2 new HD2's from T-Mobile today again, when I say again I mean I bought 2 when they first came out and like most I cried at the disappointment of WinMo 6.5 and returned them almost immediately. I hoped and dreamed of Android on the HD2, and here we are! Thank you for all that has worked on this.

I do need help with the following questions;

Can some one link me to the latest Android 2.2 Froyo version for HD2?

Once installed is it always going to run off of the SD Card?

If so does this negatively affect the battery life?

Does the functionality of HotSpot work?

I know I will have more questions but I do appreciate your help everyone!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shadiku:
All of the new builds run Android 2.2, the easiest way to find them is here.

Yes, until MAGLDR (the NAND boot) is released publically.

It does. I could explain more but I'll let someone else do that. :P

Yes.

PS: Wrong section.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dbh369:
Well answered, I would add that power consumption tends to be a bit particular to a variety of set ups, windows rom, kernel, etc. so no simple answer.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MaliciousClout:
I want to keep this as simple as possible...

Why is there so many different versions?

Is there a version grading system here?

Which version comes to be the highest recommended in the FROYO world?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
There's no rating system as it's subjective. You may like something that other people don't and ratings would become skewed. The best thing you can do is read the first couple of posts from a build thread, and if you like what you see give it a shot.

And there are so many different versions because there's lots of different ways to build Android...

Stock

Sense

CyanogenMod

MIUI

DesireHD based

Desire Z based

Nexus One based

Evo 4G based

and probably more I cannot think of right now. Each one caters to a slightly different person, and it's up to you to find one you like.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malaeus:
if you dont know much about android just go with a cyanogen6 build. anything that says CM6 or CM6.1 is good. try the one by infinitybiff. simple, solid, and very very fast.

you cant go wrong.

and you can always load multiple builds on your SD card(search how to rename android folder and edit name is startup.txt)

so you can have like 10 different builds on one SD card. all ready to go.

play around find what you like, and for gods sake do not post threads in development.
[Focus General] burningembers:
I have four Gmail accounts syncing and set to "As items arrive". But I fail to see any sort of option that let's me get a notification/vibration when items do arrive, like the Outlook one.

Can anyone tell me where this notification setting lives? Right now, if I get Gmail items arriving, I don't know until I unlock the phone and check if numbers have popped up on the tile.

Also, are they syncing by WiFi when the screen is off?
[Focus General] Thresher:
I'm not understanding. Since I use only gmail maybe you are teaching me something...

What does the phone do when it is off when a normal POP message is collected vs how an imap is collected vs how a exchange is collected?

How do those differ from gmail?

My gmail makes a noise, a short vibrate and then the tile indicates the number of unread.

Does outlook, exchange, pop, or imap act differently?
[Focus General] burningembers:
When I unlock my phone, the WiFi status icon animates and "reconnects". Leading me to believe that when my phone is locked, it isn't using WiFi to do any syncing. This worries me.

My Exchange Outlook makes noise, vibrates, and updates the tile. But my Gmail things only seem to be updating the tile - so I was hoping there was a setting somewhere I just overlooked...
[Focus General] Thresher:
You know what, perhaps the secondary accounts dont get the same notifications as the primary or something weird. Maybe commit to a hard reset, setup only the gmail and see how it acts...I know there is goofy stuff with the calendar that is shown as the main one...

Not sure. I think we will get far more interaction int he at&t forums on certain items but it feels unnatural to leave my precious...my precious! XDA
[Focus General] Seed 2.0:
I have one Windows Live, and 3 Gmail accounts linked to my phone. All my accounts give me the same alert sound I chose in the "ringtones & sound" settings of the phone. All are set to receive as sent. Ive tested, and showed coworkers a few times, emails always seem to arrive with in 30 seconds of sending an email to one of my accounts.
[Focus General] sk8mdw:
My exchange (work), windows live, yahoo, and gmail accounts are all working in terms of getting the notification via sound and a number of unread messages on the tile.

What is weird is that when I check the lock screen, I see icons for any unread exchange, windows live and yahoo e-mail. I never see an icon for unread gmail on the lock screen, I have to swipe up and check the tiles.

Is this what everyone else is seeing? No big deal, but I would like to see an icon for unread gmail on the lock screen. Oh, I have the Samsung Focus.

[Focus General] dhan911:
I have gmail, WLive and Exchange and I get unread count on lock screen for all three of them on my Focus. I have the alert sound turned off so can't be sure about it.
[Focus General] sk8mdw:
Thanks for the feedback dhan911. I may delete my two gmail accounts from the Focus and set them up again.
[Focus General] bremic9188:
I think WP7 only shows your first 3 email accounts on the lock screen, each in a different position along the bottom.

I have 4 email accounts syncing with my phone (in this order): Gmail, School mail (essentially Gmail), Work 1 email (Exchange), and Work 2 email (Exchange). I can see notifications on the lock screen from my Gmail, school mail, and my work 1 email, but not my work 2 email. I do receive notification sound and vibration for all, however.
[Focus General] sk8mdw:
Thanks bremic9188, I am seeing icons for three e-mail accounts on the lockscreen, but am getting notifications for all five accounts. Sounds like that just may be the deal.
[Focus General] SuperSport:
Another thought. If you are setting it to "As Items Arrive", why not try setting it up as an OutLook Exchange account?

First, delete the previous Gmail Account.

Now, setup a new account, select 'Outlook'. Use your Gmail info. When it fails, enter Your Full Email Address as the User name. When it fails again, select 'advanced' and enter 'm.google.com' as the Server, then select 'show all settings'. Now select any prefered settings, such as turning off Contacts and Calendar if prefered so it only grabs email. Probably change the Account name to Gmail, etc. Now hit 'sign in' and you should be set. It will operate exactly like an Exchange Account. ;)

I've asked in a couple places for the stock recovery. If/when I get it I will post a short how to.

I just don't want to lose everything on my phone to get this update.

I did a NAND backup and installed the update manually and there are several improvements I would like to have, such as significantly reduced charging time. But right now, without a custom ROM, the only way to get it is the RUU, and that wipes the phone.

I am assuming that you can't just apply the update.zip from clockwork because it fails to find the stock apps (which it is trying to update, such as AppSharing, and Flickr, etc.) that I removed.

p.s. step 7 is worded in a misleading way, although I understood what you meant. (reads like - rename the deleted file)

thanks for your help
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsb9938:
Having this issue with somebody else. I'm not sure if you can name it PB31IMG.zip or not, but you can try. Worst care, it doesn't load that way either.

I'm helping somebody else with the same issue right now, but his phone is totally hosed up, so I'm taking him back to stock 2.2 first. He has a good Titanium backup, so he won't lose anything.

If anybody else knows why the loader might ignore an update.zip please let me know.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thevoiceless:
I'm still confused; do I have to have the stock recovery to do this?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgps:
I am not sure of these steps because I have read the threads from here and the post you put on Android forums as well and both threads are mentioning some issues.

Some posts state payload-update is unneccesary.

Some posts state that these steps are failing.

The post I am most concerned about states that "Rooted STOCK ONLY" means you can't have removed any bloatware either before doing this update. I have several apps removed, do I have to restore them before I take these steps?

Also not sure why folks are asking if they must have stock recovery. The instructions don't say anything about that.

I have noticed that the nagging has stoped on my dinc however if I go to the about update section in setup I find it states that the update has been successfully downloaded and is ready to install. Will this try to install the next time I boot the phone or is OK to boot?

Edit: Forgot to mention Some posts state that the process fails and you have to wait a few hours to continue, that's confusing and not in the instructions.

In summary

1) Do you have to re-install bloatware to make these steps work?

2) Is payload-update really necessary? What does each install in these steps do?

3) Does the process fail at some point if you don't allow the device to sit for a while, if so what step should you let it sit? It would be nice if someone understood this part also, anyone have a possible reason for this requirement?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsb9938:
Sorry, I only figured this out for my own benefit, I don't claim to know much about this stuff, I just wanted my phone up to date.

Here are my answers:

1. YES - STOCK means all the way stock.

2. No, the two SU files are redundant, something I didn't realize at first. However it will not hurt. As for the files being out of date (mentioned elsewhere), they can be updated after quite easily.

3. Yes, sometimes you have to wait to complete the SU install, I still do not know why.

As for the phone not loading files automatically in hboot, I suspect that you need to accept the OTA even though it will fail to clear a flag of some sort. I am not positive on this though as I am not a dev, and I do not know what to do at that point if you do not. I am hoping somebody on here smarter than I will jump in to help.

Hope this helps you guys out.
