[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dveloperz:
I am new to XDA because I'm knew to the HTC HD2 T-mo USA. I like Win 6.5, works fine, but have the need to tinker. Seriously, have been researching how to install Android for about 12-14 hours combined. See plenty of guides that are not easy to understand, and then don't mention HSPL, etc. Could anyone help me safely install? I have loaded (but not installed) froyo sense 3.2 and dual boot loader. Everything appears to be okay, pressed clrcad, then hared and the HTC logo comes up??? I have not installed HSPL, is that the problem? A complete layman's guide would be very helpful. If I install HSPL can't I just remove my sim card to not lose contacts? Links to help, will probably not be helpful, I think I've read them all, as well as the rest of the Internet.

My info:

Radio 2.10 stock

Rom Vers. 2.13.531.1 stock

Thanks to all here, you guys are way beyond me and your mercy would be appreciated!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
When you saw the htc logo how long did you wait for? If it's your first boot then boot time should take roughly 20 mins max. Unless you've downloaded a data image with the build you're trying out and placed the data image in the same android folder, then boot time should be faster. So if you didn't copy a data image file that you've downloaded, into the android folder, go into the android folder, delete the data image file that the system has created, and try to boot android again, wait for about 20 mins and android should be ready, complete the setup or not (DO not install any apps). Then reboot your phone, start up android again, then you're ready to go. HSPL does not remove sim contacts if i remember correctly.

The only problem with HSPL is the possibility of voiding your warranty.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dveloperz:
Thanks!

First, thanks for your reply. In videos about installing, after people click haret, massive amount of script(?) start running, that just never happened. HTC logo comes up instantly, waited about 10 minutes, due to many people saying it took about 7 min. I was just expecting scrolling script/code(?)

Again, thanks for your help. I will certainly wait longer if that's what you believe I should do. Does HSPL need to be installed to install Android? Seen talk about radio, appears my 2.10 version is okay?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
It's okie, it's normal for current android builds not to show those massive amounts of scripts. If i remember correctly stock roms don't really bode well with android so i suggest you flash a custom rom. I would recommend you HSPL the device first however since HSPL is recommended for both flashing winmo and booting android, HSPL 2 or 3 will do. You can remove the HSPl by flashing a stock rom through sd card when you don't want the HSPL anymore.Your radio is okie i think, i'm not sure about the prerequisites for running android on a t-mo hd2 however.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Jules2k7:
Hi, the videos you have watched are of the older versions of android which showed all the script when launching linux. Now they are all nicely concealled under the HTC logo, if you want a nice safe build to get you started, try darkstones superRAM rom.

It loads itself onto your ram rather than running off the SD card, and also runs perfect on stock phones without HSPL.

Simply drag+drop onto your SD card then lanch CLRCAD+haret, and away you go.

Yes I believe you have to use hspl for your phone for the android process to be complete and work properly.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
No, you do not need HSPL, I use Android every day on the ROM in my sig, with regular stock SPL.

No robot voice, no SOD, everything works.

Just place the Android folder on the root (not inside any folders, just on the sd card) of your sd card, go into file explorer in WinMo, navigate to Android folder, press CLRCAD, press Haret, and enjoy Android. First boot can take 10-15 mins.

Why should one flash a custom kernel? I understand if you want to overclock your phone for what ever reason but if you want to improve battery life why would you flash a custom kernel? HTC's last two kernels, #17 and #15, have given me great battery life; I had ~15hrs with 20% yesterday. And I'm not sure if it was some blunder the other day but it seemed #15 lessened the battery drop after having charged the phone overnight if not having cured it completely, I'll have to test it later.

Right now I'm using netarchy 4.2.2 CFS nohavs and 9 hrs on 16% used and will see how it goes for next day or so.

I also have this problem, tested on every Rom in Rom Manager. I believe the problem us that I am using google as apps for my main email address. I tested with a factory reload with my gmail address and the market worked. Then I tired adding an credit card to my google apps account from my pc without any luck.

I previously made purchases with my google app account, but am no longer able to even view previous transactions. The problem is on google ends, but I have no ideal in to fix the problem or who to contact.

To complicate things further any new google app account works in purchasing apps, just the account that had previous purchases before google upgraded google apps to allow google apps account to work across google products

Going back to SR for a little while. I am also not using a Google apps account.

Did that fix your problem? flashing a new rom?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serialteg:
i have a vibrant... and am using it with att... and have had the issue of getting 3g, then going out of range to edge and not getting the 3g back unless i reboot the phone. so is this why? this phone is not compatible with att? im in puerto rico, att essentially bought centennial here and i guess uses their network...

?????? :confused:

i obviously messed around with the unlocking, and im pretty sure i screwed something up - it's my first time doing these things on a cell phone - but its unlocked, i just wondered if its doing this thing because of the /efs folder and all the things i did to it lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosormic:
There is no way a Vibrant gets the AT&T 3G bands. Even if they share the 2100 3G band, the implementations are incompatible. The Vibrant cannot work 3G on 850, not here or anywhere else.

EDIT: See my post below. Seems I was wrong and the Vibrant can use AT&T's 3g. Awaiting confirmation from any user who has AT&T and an unlocked vibrant, then I'll update this post again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayprime:
I read it is compatible with the 850 2g att network.

Indeed. All "multiband" GSM are. They will run up to Edge.

**********************************************

OK this seems to be "the" bomb

**********************************************

NOW. Having said that, I may have to swallow my words, and although I am still in a state of disbelief, here are the facts.

I just did some research in order to finish this discussion with conclusive evidence, and ran into a major surprise. There is a menu that allows the user to "enable" or "disable" bands. I managed to enable the 850 band in WCDMA (AT&T 3G) but my phone is locked so I cannot test it. However, the "enable" setting remained after reboot. Someone mentioned that it reverts to disabled after reflashing.

Here is the process (Got it from this thread: http://goo.gl/Sx7JA, all credit goes to reuthermonkey there, I just copy and paste).

Here are his instructions to get to that menu, and where I enabled 850 WCDMA:

Note: To go back on the menu use the menu key and then select Back. Do NOT use the back key.

His (see HIS screenshot I "borrow" from that forum) phone matches my phone: http://goo.gl/rBi4j

This menu (Network Selection, step 5 above) is used to enable bands. Bands can be disabled only selecting something else. I.E. If I select GSM bands, the 3G are disabled; if I select 3G bands the GSM bands are disabled. If I go to the Combi bands menu, I can enable whichever I want.

All I did was select (touch) the WCDMA line which did not have a * (see the screenshot) and confirm in the following screen, then going back (remember Menu-->Back, not back key) it became selected. Exited the menu, rebooted, came back and that AT&T band is still selected. Is it WCDMA 850 enabled???? Need to test but tried to force my phone into roaming to AT&T and it complained that my SIM did not authorize roaming there (lol).

Someone else with an unlocked Vibrant and an any WCDMA 850 (AT&T) SIM must try.

Now, as a proof of concept, I decided to disable the TMO 3G bands by selecting GSM BAND -> GSM ALL and then just enabling 850 WCDMA. This effectively disabled all 3G bands. After doing that went back to Combi Bands and confirmed that all GSM bands were enabled and none of the 3g bands were. After that, enabled the 850 band leaving the TMO bands disabled.

Once I did that, I backed all the way to the root menu and then selected EXIT.

Behold!

No reboot necessary, my phone is now on TMO Edge and cannot select 3g. Disabling the bands worked!!!! I confirmed it going to the INFO screen (*#*#4636#*#* --> Phone info) and indeed is connecting only on edge.

So, based on the test I performed, I assume that in the same way I disabled the TMO bands, I successfully enabled the WCDMA 850 (AT&T) band. Someone with an unlocked vibrant and ATT or similar service (OP) can test and confirm.​

The setting survived a power-off and power-on cycle. After all this messing around I was able to successfully enable my 3G bands and all is good and dandy.

I still cannot believe it, but seems completely true.

Please DO test and report

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaoQ:
I don't know what bands my Vibrant is using but I get 3G on ATT network in California, USA.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zharptitza:
Yeah, I know it seems odd to hear it, but it has worked for me. Problem I have is at work I can only get about 1 meg down and 1 up. I also get weird behavior with speed test sometimes where it just freezes on the upload. Here's history, it varies by where I'm at, but you can see form the icon that those are over wireless, not wifi.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosormic:
You are correct: Vibrant on 3G on AT&T

Well, after all the research I did yesterday indeed I take back my words that Vibrant cannot do 3G in AT&T. I decided to unlock mine and borrow a friend's AT&T SIM. Pictures below.

When I turned the phone on, all bands, including WCDMA 850 were enabled but the phone went to Edge. Then I disabled all and left only WCDMA 850 band and still went to edge, even though GSM 850 was explicitly disabled. However, if I enable only WCDMA 1900, it went straight to 3G. The SIM provided the APN info so it all worked. I didn't try to enable both or enabling all others combinations, had to give the SIM back.

So, maybe thats why some people who indeed have 3G on AT&T are having issues. AT&T uses the 850 band as "overflow" (for 3G that is), so maybe if you are in an area with no coverage, or where the main band, 1900 is saturated, the cell sends the phone to 850 and based in my 5 minute testing, it won't go WCDMA on 850.

Thanks all for following and giving feedback and putting up with my long rants. I just think it is fantastic that we have a phone that can do 3G on both operators.

|OP|: Using the instructions above, were you able to get your 850 band, and for that matter 3G in your operator?

I dont see a reason for ati to block this type of streaming, after all you only get 2gb limit and after that they charge you again. That is the only reason they changed it so they can make more money and they dont have to worry about people over using data.
