I'm not sure why your having problems.... makes no sense.

First thing, make sure that FM Radio app is NOT on, (You cant just hit the home button to cancel out, you have to press the power looking icon at the top right to fully exit out of FM Radio)

I opened the FM Radio app to check it out, then hit home, then advance task killer. Phone never made a noise, hours later it was still on! so i had to open the app up and close it as i described.

Are you running this build??

Where did you put your music on the SD Card??

I put mine under the SD card and created a folder called "Music"

( /SD Card/ Music)

I use the HTC Music app that comes on this Build and it automatically found it and it works great.

And yes they are all .MP3 Files.

Other then that im not quite sure why your phone is not playing it..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] isharma:
I did exactly what you said, but either way it won't play it ;/

I think I'll try to re flash this ROM. It's quite "the bomb" so I'm definitely not giving up on it. lol.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
Ok great good luck, let me know if i can be of assistance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Gv2004:
Okay I did everything in the Video, I ran Task29, put it back into Bootloader, ran the ROmw/Android, Android is up and running on my htc hd2. First thing I tried was the WiFi Hotspot. I turned it on, connnected to it through my Laptop, it says I am connected, but no websites will not load up, then I tried to go to the internet on my phone, still nothing, google's page will not load up at all. Help?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] aggieman2k7:
First off, wanted to thank original poster for all the hard work put into this. Currently having a heck of a time getting the 1.0.3 version to load. Been trying to get this thing to run over the past two days, and so far haven't had any success. LOVED 1.0.2, just wanted to update since it was so much more stable.

I have done these steps :

Formatted the SD card

Ran Task 29 (as administrator)

Autoflashed the ROM (as administrator)

Avoided the thing like the plague

Once hit it the green HTC screen, thats where the installation stops. Absolutely no clue why. I've let it sit on that screen for HOURS and nada.

Battery Testing Results (Settings 1.0): Day 1

Running this exact ROM/Kernel/Radio setup listed at page one of this thread thanks to SuperSport AND cmylxgo

Be sure to thank them both, and donate for their hard work!

With this stock BUILD and no modifications I observed about 6-8 hours battery life until dead (light to moderate use).

This is my first attempt to increase this battery life (since i use this HD2 as my "daily driver")

Phone plugged into charger overnight ~ midnight

Battery taken off charger ~ 9:30-10:00 AM (Full 100% Charge)

Today only light to moderate use, returned back home at 11:00 PM

Battery currently at ~ 65%:

12hr since unplugged.

Cell standby - 38%

Phone Idle - 34%

Android system - 21%

Voice Calls - 16%

Display - 7%

Dialer - 5%

My goal is to try and get "Cell Standby" down (not exactly sure why its so high)

This is over double the battery life of what i had with the stock settings the Build came with.

Tomorrow I will tweak these settings and report day 2.

Then ill post the info so you guys can get the same battery life, as i will have completed my testing for crashes, lag, etc...

Stay tuned ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Hey guys, just to let you know I will be removing the "all parts Folder" (shown above) in a day or two but the single links will (hopefully) remain. I uploaded the 4 parts in two downloads though just in case.

SuperSport, let me know if you would rather them be in four seperate downloads or if this way causes problems and ill change them. :)

Parts 1 and 2

Parts 3 and 4

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Chris Boyer:
Dumb question and probably in the wrong forum, but what is your typical donation . Am sending one closer to Xmas, but don't want to insult. Your hard work has turned my hopeless piece of crap hd2 into my new favorite toy. Thank you and merry Xmas.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
This is actually a very good question
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] warriorpluto:
i would like to thank the creators of this. i flashed this on my friends hd2 and it makes my captivate look bad. lol now i want an hd2!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
It's a donation, any amount is appeciated. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Guys, make sure you realize what you're doing. When you remove an apk in system/app it will remove it completely (example: if you remove htcclockwidget.apk you will no longer have your standard clock widget). So if you remove the wrong apk it could cause some other things to function incorrectly. Just an FYI for those of you unfamiliar with android system files.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
Correct this is a great point.

If you are not comfortable with doing this step them just skip it.

It wont make much of a difference with the battery life.

I just didn't want some applications such as stocks, weather, news, etc there because i'm anal with things running in the background that I don't use.

If you have more questions feel free to ask.

Its much better to ask BEFORE then AFTER.

But ultimately, I hope you all can increase battery life, if thats your goal as it was mine
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
I do the same :P (as far as removing apps).

Hey do you think you could clean up/shorten that post up a little so I can put it in this battery tips post (located in the energy FAQ)?

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
It sounds like you did it right... That's strange, especially considering 102 worked fine. By avoid like the plague, i assume that means you left it alone after the flash started? After it starts, you shouldn't need to touch it until Android boots. All i can suggest is starting from the beginning, maybe even download again, although, that's not likely it since it finished flashing.

This should be fine. I will update first post tomorrow. I've been confined to my bed today due to my illness, so I'm posting from my phone. I should be back up tomorrow.

Thank you Chris for asking. I will be honest and say I've received three $10 donations since I started on XDA in 2007. I want everyone to know that I don't do this for the money. I truly enjoy sharing what I know or can do with others. The donations are VERY appreciated, but not necessary. I also want to remind everyone that the Android portion of the ROM was done by cmylxgo. I then added a different kernel, cooked a light ROM, added a radio, then packaged it all together for easy installation and stable compatibility. For the assembly part of all this, I appreciate what donations come in, but for the bulk of the Android portion, cmulxgo deserves recognition.... Again, I'm on my phone at the moment, so I can't link his name, but you will find it on the first post. Again, thank you for your consideration, just be sure it's headed in the direction you intended. ;)

I've heard that a few times now. The HD2, is truly a masterpiece and a powerhouse. :D

Great idea, and thanks everyone for all your input. I might even consider cooking these battery mods into a future ROM. ;)

Some Cool Info

Here is some cool info about my MediaFire mirror. I was just looking at the stats.

This ROM has been downloaded over 700 times.

I've now served over 22.8 TeraBytes and over 1.3 MILLION file downloads since I started it in Aug of 2008. Pretty cool stuff...

PS: this wasn't a MediaFire advertisement, just found the stats the other day and thought they were cool. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
Wow that's awesome! Keep up the good work !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] aggieman2k7:
SuperSport, I actually figured out what the issue was and got it working like a champ. I did do everything correctly, except that for whatever reason when I formatted my SD card through my PC, it excludes leaving a tiny file, "encfiltlog.menc" on the card. That file (whatever it does) is apparently vital to having everything boot correctly. All it took to fix was me formatting the SD card via the phone itself. If anyone else is having this issue, give that a try.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mbscuba:
Looks great, but no English, US
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
I noticed this but English UK is the same. Using this build for over a week now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
That's GREAT news. Still strange though. That file is for encryption and should not be needed on the new setup. After formatting, it should be gone and the new WM Build and Android build would setup the card as they want it. Anyways, glad it's going now. I hope you enjoy it.

Actually, if you don't select a language, it defaults to US English. If you want to verify or change this, use the app morelocale2 found in the Program List. If it's not there, you can install from the Marketplace.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nick2k:
Rarrrrr.... I'm having another issue besides the whole USB drive in car thing: phone locks up on YouTube.com when using the internet browser. I feel bad mentioning it here since its really a cmylxgo ROM, but I'm just wondering if anyone is having the same issue.

Oh... and the screen doesn't rotate to landscape when using the browser....

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
A while ago there was an issue where if you hit the back button while in landscape mode it will freeze your phone.. flip to portrait first. But otherwise check the Topia thread.

You can control screen rotation in two places, settings -> display or Spare Parts (some versions)

For more about this look here
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
WOW, Already? That's impressive. :D cmylxgo did a GREAT job with his Android Build. It's really popular.

Don't feel bad. If there's an answer I'm aware of I don't mind helping. I was actually using YouTube in the Browser for an hour or so the day before my SD Card went caput. I was not experiencing problems with it, although, I don't know if I had started it portrait first or not. PS: I was watching some CTFxC. :o Also, I was on a WiFi connection, if that matters at all. :confused: Come to think of it, I was also on SI.com watching Videos. Rotate was working fine also.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
This is why its a great example to backup all of the content on your SD card onto your computer. So that way if your SD does happen to crap out, then you can run to your local retail store, buy a new SD card then transfer all the info back onto the SD so this way you didnt loose any info, and run the install process of the build all again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
This would be an awesome idea, only if i knew how to code or make apps. It would be nice to go into settings or open an app and check mark a box notated "Power savings mode" or something along the lines of this. That would be convenient.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] guardm:
I have been following this post for some time (lurking in the background). I was convinced to try it and I flashed this rom to my HD2. I am now very seriously losing interest in WinMo. GREAT WORK here. Thanks for sharing this with us, especially me, the skeptic. A couple of things I can comment about:

1. I can't seem to get GPS fix to cooperate. In Google Nav, it constantly shows "Searching for GPS..." Is there an alternative (free) Nav soft for this. I was uning CoPilot with WinMo and love it.

edit: after 10-15 minutes, it got a GPS fix . I hope this is due to it being the first time I used it.

2. The "WinDroid" splash is AWSOME . How do I use it? Perhaps it could be an option during install or added to available wallpapers in future update(?)

3. Better battery life would be an great improvement, but can't have it all I guess. I do see it's being tested though.

4. Not being an android user until now, I don't know how to assign ringers, alerts etc. Is there a place to learn some of this? Link?

Again thanks for sharing this with us/me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:
Back on page 23 I posted a how to about getting better battery life. Check it out.

As far as getting ringtones to work on this version this is the how to:

* Find your ringtone

* Place the ringtone in

/ SDcard / Android / Media / Audio / Ringtones.

(You can do this either using ES File Explorer (app) on your phone.

Or just enter your SD card into a card reader on you PC.)

* Then fully reboot your phone.

After this do the following on your phone:

Go to

Settings > Sound > Phone Ringtone > System Ringtone >

Then you ringtone should be under there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] guardm:
I will try this and report back. Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ahennin4:

I had already put your original in the FAQ but I can switch it out since you provided a link to the original.

And just FYI, It can be found both in my sig and in the EnergyRom FAQ which can also be found in my sig.

NOOB QUESTION.......How can I use/install this splash? I read through the reference post but found nothing that points to the installation method.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
You extract the two files from the archive, and run CustomRUU.exe to flash it just like you would a ROM. PS: It really does look better on the phone.

Also, I've asked for permisson to cook it into my next update. Waiting for a response now. If not, then I'll find something that will work, but this would be nice.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] guardm:
Thanks SuperSport. I have to go to my PC to do it. BTW is there any way to flash from a MAC?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
You can also flash it using the SD Card method. Rename the NBH file to LEOIMG.nbh, copy it to your SD Card, then enter bootloader and it will flash. I don't know how to flash from a MAC. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] guardm:
Thanks again. I'll learn as I go ;{)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
I don't think you can from a mac.. not positive tho.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] guardm:

You guys are the best. Ringtones instruction worked as intended.

If anyone needs convincing, rest assured, I tried the tweaks and they helped me.....so follow the posted instructions and get more use out of your HD2.

Now, I gotta figure how to set a pic as wallpaper and have ALL of the picture show.......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Glad to hear :)

Can you explain which battery tweaks you used? Either from ahennin's post or from the one in my sig.

I enjoy helping people. So many people on XDA have helped me in the past few years, so i decided to contribute to the forums.

I'm still improving the battery life. Ill post when I have more tweaks.

As far as the boot screen, i'm definitely interested in using the WINDROID one.

I have a MAC as well... it works great, but i'm going to Bootcamp and install Windows 7 this weekend.

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] guardm:
I did get the windroid boot screen to work on my device and one additional device using the SD card method posted earlier. I have bootcamp with WinXP but use a Win7 PC to do my updating.

I'm going to Colorado for a week long ski trip, and I really want to record some of the slopes. Today I tested the camcorder on my HD2, set the resolution to 720P (HD) and tested it. I hit the record button and nothing happened. So i hit the home button and tried to run the app again. It would exit out of the app soon as i opened it.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
I tried again using a different USB port and i worked like a charm!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
720p does not work in the Android build. Only use the normal resolution. It's a problem with most of the Android Builds on HD2.

Please help!! :confused:

I don't remember hearing that issue before. Is anyone else experiencing it? Did you format your SD Card before installing? Did you upgrade from another Android Build?

Yea.... As I said... weird. Since I use limited 200 MB Internet plan, I try to use WiFi if possible. Not being able to connect through WiFi makes this build unacceptable for me.

By the way, what was the allocation size during the format? 32Kb or 4096B?
