[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] magentawave:
Can Android run perfectly on an HTC HD2 or does it typically run kind of funky?

Thanks

Steve
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Well its not native to HD2 so its not going to be "perfect", It isnt even perfect on native Android devices.

The stability depends on many different factors like build/kernel/apps/hd2 hardware.

Your best bet is to try some builds get some experience and see which build works bets for you.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
I have several builds that I use regularly, which all run smooth as butter.

It's only funky if that's how you like it :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] magentawave:
This is what is currently running on my HTC HD2 where Android is running slow, clunky and buggy. Its basically unusable at this point. I'm using the standard 16 gb SD card that came with the phone from T-Mobile. Not sure what Class that card is either. If there is anything you can tell me about this, or if you can refer me to how to make this phone run fast and smooth with Android then I would really appreciate it please.

- Version: 2.2

- Baseband version: 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14

- Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-38116-g3af9a39-dirty

root AT ubuntu-Server-RL #74

- Build number: 2.09.405.8 CL218634 release-keys

- Software number: FroyoStone Sense

- Browsers version: WebKit 3.1

Thank you very much.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] roloracer:
look you want to run smooth android on your hd2? scrap all that!! Start by making sure your phone is hard spl, upgrade your radio to either a 2.14.50 or the 2.15.50(.50 radios for US hd2's only) then get a good android compatible windows rom, I recommend CR192 DESIRE HD(you'll find it here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=791303) Get the EBL Bootloader app for windows, set it to a 3 second auto boot on android, then format your sd card, put your android build on there, and start testing.

I just gave you a good base setup for android, is what I've been using for the last month, and is running as smooth as you can expect from a native android phone, but on a non native android phone. I haven't used windows at all, for the last month except for changing builds, I've been on android all this time without any issues.:cool:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] magentawave:

hi sir iam new in this forum plz help me my htc hd2 shows on screen software update failed it cannot connected to active sync but connected to my pc .i download its hspl and rom butt next what can i do plz help me.
[HD2 General] huggs:
Try to get it into bootloader by taking out your battery, putting it back in, and then holding the volume down button while pressing the pwr/end key.

You have to hold the vol- key while the phone starts up, then you should see a screen with a few colores bars and some info.

EXACTLY what all info is displayed in your tri-color (bootloader) screen?
[HD2 General] usmancheema:
i tried the same. phone is in boot loader mode butt cannot connect to hspl2 it gives error plz help me .what can i do next its spl is 2.08.0000 8G XE
[HD2 General] huggs:
Don't bother trying to flash it via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center on your computer. If it has already failed, it will likely fail again.

Get a class 2, 4gb sd card, and erase all files and format it (FAT32).

Get a ROM that you are CERTAIN is compatible with your 1024 Leo (TMo-US) and inside the zip file you will find a file with the extension .nbh

Rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and transfer the file to your freshly formatted 4gb class2 card. (Not inside any folders, just on the card)

Take the battery out of your phone, then place the sd card into the phone.

Turn the phone on while holding the vol- button, to enter bootloader, and your phone will detect the LEOIMG.nbh file after a few seconds and ask you if you want to update your software.

Your phone will tell you to press a button to start the update. Press the button. Wait for the update to complete. The phone may reboot and flash the update again, I've had mine do that, it's okay, just let it go.

When everything is done, it should either turn off by its self, or boot up normally by its self.

If the update fails the first time, try it again.

Turn it off, take out the sd card, and boot it up normally.

If you follow these steps exactly, then you will not fail.

If you do follow thes steps exactly and the phone doesn't get all the way thru the update process, and fails, then it's one of two things:

1. You tried to flash an incompatible ROM

2. There's something wrong with the hardware of your phone, or your bootloader is corrupted.

Good luck and happy flashing!!!!!
[HD2 General] usmancheema:
bro thank u for give me complete detail for that butt i am confused that where i find compatibale rom.plz if u up load for me that rom and if possible how to find the file LEOIMG.nbh.plz sorry for my bad english. my phone spl is 2.08.000.and also that software windows Mobile Device Center.
[HD2 General] huggs:
OK since your SPL is 2.08, you will first need to install HSPL to your phone through your computer.

Don't worry, HSPL never fails over the computer , as ROMs sometimes do.

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=347299&d=1277158888

Just connect your phone through Windows Mobile Device Center and run the HSPL program (right-click it and Run As Administrator), following the instructions the program gives you. When asked to choose an SPL, choose 2.08 HSPL.

Allow the program to work its magic, and when it is finished, go into bootloader and confirm manually that you have HSPL by looking on the bootloader screen for the name Cotulla, and it should say 2.08HSPL

Then I would suggest any of the ROMs here:

http://hotfile.com/list/588162/580b43d

Personally I would go with the Dinik one, the icons and everything are really nice looking.

Just follow my previous instructions to flash it via sd card, and you'll be good to go.

After that, go learn about putting some Android builds on your sd card in the HD2 forum, Android subfora.

Lots of fun to be had there.

Hope it all works well for you, don't hesitate to ask more ?'s if you're not sure about something :D

I rooted my Htc Evo 4G in late October with unrevoked3 so that i could use wifi tether, but i do not use it so i want to unroot my phone. Can I update the phone with the new update from htc (3.7 etc..) to unroot my phone? If not is there a way to unroot my phone without losing my apps?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
Generally yes, if you apply the OTA update you should be unrooted. But you said you used unrevoked (assuming the one click 3.21 method) to root, so you are NAND unlocked (S-OFF) . If you want to get back to S-ON, you will need to download and flash the unrevoked-forever-son.zip file and then try to apply the OTA update. Otherwise you will need to download and run the official RUU to unroot.

hey guys..

I just have a quick question regarding rooting and debranding..

I debranded my German T-Mobile branded HTC Desire back when 2.2 was just out for the Desire, so I could get the update couple of months earlier.

and just last night I rooted my device, without any problems..

now, regarding my question:

my room mate got a new Desire with a T-Mobile brand and froyo..

he wants his phone to get to my state, so can I just root it and install a stock ROM on his phone and the brand will be gone too?

or do I need to unbrand it first..

thanks for any help!

peace

(PS: to avoid you having to ask anything,

after the root, his desire will probably have s-on if I do it the way I rooted my device. can he install ROMs with s-on?)

thanks you guys

UPDATE:

I just successfully rooted his device..

so, will the brand be gone if I install a custom or stock ROM?

or do I still need to debrand? his s ist still on too..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
You can flash a stock WWE ROM without rooting.

Just get the ROM, make a goldcard and flash it.

You can, also root before or after flashing the WWE ROM if you want to.

Root and S-OFF are different and are done separately, and of course, you can flash custom roms when s-off.

I Edit also:If you install a custom rom or a stock WWE ROM the branding will be gone for as long as he stays on these roms.

I am not sure what you mean by debranding as it is rather the state that you are not an a branded ROM with a branded device, i.e., it's not something permanent that makes your device unbranded.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKancho:
thanks for the quick answer..

s-off was a typo tho.

I meant s-on.. :D

can't I just install it through Rom-Manager?

and will the brand be gone after that?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Okay, for the brand part see the edit above.

You can install ROMs with rom manager.

You can install ROMs with S-ON.

[Nexus S General] redhatyellow:
So I got the Nexus S yesterday and LOVE everything about it.

I'm unable to get any acceptable reception inside my apartment (on the lowest level of a three story complex thats surrounded by other apartments).

I live in Hermosa Beach, CA and TMO says I have good coverage here... and they're right... because once i walk outside I'm blazing... like literally once I'm outside my door... what gives??? How can I go from 3G 4 bars lit up in green to that stupid EDGE with one bar... lucky to be green... or no reception at all.

Will I be stuck with not being able to use my phone inside my apartment? I called TMO and they are sending someone out here to check the reception I guess... but I'm stuck using WiFi inside my apartment without being able to use the phone.

Anyone else experience similar issues like that? My sprint phone never did this.
[Nexus S General] rashad1:
look into getting a signal repeater or something
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
T-Mobile definitely has issues penetrating buildings, in my opinion. Both my home and one of the two work-sites I frequent are almost dead-zones on T-Mo.

I purchased one of those zBoost cell repeaters for my home, which greatly improves reception, but you need to be able to run a cable to an outside antenna for best results.

Here's an Amazon link for a starting point to different models: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias=mobile&field-keywords=zboost+tmobile&x=0&y=0

That said, it's ridiculous to have to pay $250 to get your cell signal. I only did it because the one I got does both AT&T and T-Mo frequencies (not T-Mo 3G, though) and my AT&T phones can get signal inside the house, but just barely.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
I too have issues in buildings not necessarily my house but businesses
[Nexus S General] CraigP17:
This is a T-Mobile issue. Not a nexus issue. Also is not a new issue.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Technically correct, but if the Nexus S is your first T-Mobile phone, you might not know this. It would be easy to think the NS has a poor antenna. It's a valid question to ask, in my opinion.
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
This is just a fundamental issue with the frequencies t-mobile uses for their 3g network, 1700 and 2100mHz. Those have poor building penetration vs for example lower bands like the 850mHz on ATT which penetrates buildings much stronger. It requires them to build towers closer together but that isn't always possible, its hard enough to get towers up as it is.

This is one reason I've tried to stay on ATT 3g as their 3g band performs much better in these situations, when its available.
[Nexus S General] redhatyellow:
Do you think TMO will provide this for me? Have people got TMO to do this before?

And yeah, I know this isn't a NS issue... I LOVE THE NS -- MY FAV PHONE OF ALL TIME!!, but i am new to TMO and love them as well EXCEPT for inside my house !!

Has anyone ever got TMO to provide better reception inside their home?? You would think they would provide people with like wireless routers for their homes!
[Nexus S General] c_licious:
I had the G1, Nexus One, G2, and MT4G before the Nexus S and have to say that the Nexus S gets hands down the best reception in my apartment.

The G1 was worthless, the N1, G2, and MT4G were pretty much on par but only got reception in certain parts of the apartment which means I couldn't move very much when on the phone (unless when on wifi calling of course).

The Nexus S has reception everywhere in my apartment with superior call quality throughout. Very impressed with it so far. T-mobile still sucks inside buildings but you're better off with the Nexus S than other T-mobile devices.

why you are living deep down under. afraid of nuke or something ?
[Nexus S General] redhatyellow:
Also, I live in Los Angeles and we've been having lots of rain here... will that affect reception at all?

And what about femtocell technology? Does TMO use it??

[Nexus S General] robot_agenda:
Hopefully someone will port the tmobile wifi app to the nexus s. I may return mine and wait for it because I don't want to keep switching phones at home because one has the ability for wifi calling and the other doesnt.

Also I have tried sip calling to no avail on both nexuses.
[Nexus S General] allen099:
Rain is known to sometimes cause interference with reception; I notice this as well in NYC. I have noticed that the Nexus S is pretty good at keeping the signal alive, certainly better than my N1 or Vibrant.

To improve your reception, set the phone to airplane mode and then turn it off a few seconds later to get the closest towers. Also call 611 and ask them to reset your phone on the network from their end. Surprisingly, this sometimes does help. As someone said previously, the higher the band (2100 mhz for Tmo 3G), the worse penetration is unfortunately. I think Tmo stopped selling their repeaters earlier this year or last year (hotspot @ home).
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
I tweeted on Sunday my dissatisfaction with T-Mobile service. I was 75' outside one of their own stores in an area marked as 3G on their maps, couldn't get data at all inside another store, couldn't get better than EDGE outside in the parking lot.

Their reply was to try a new SIM. The SIM I have is from my N1 original, it's not even a year old. Anyone think it's worth the effort swapping? Do SIMS actually "wear out" that fast?

I suspect that's one of those "we don't really have an answer or fix, but give the customer something to try so we look proactive" kind of answers. LOL
[Nexus S General] rickysquared:

My friend had this problem with his ATT phones. He contacted them, *****ed, and they set up one of those repeaters in his apartment.

First - days of drying may be needed. Second - Powering it on early can damage it further. Third - it is entirely in the hands of a hardware technician, there's nothing we can do here to help, other than tell you shouldn't have dropped it and you probably should have dried it far longer.
