@OP

I think you should change the first post so that before listing a load of "bugs", it explains that the following is only a list of bugs that some people have experienced, because it reads as if you're saying every HD2 user that uses WP7 WILL experience those bugs. Personally, I've not experienced any of them.

Just a suggestion, or your post could easily offend.

90% of the users face the same problems (they become a well known bugs for all , ) sure you have the multitouch bug , the loud voice Etc , if you are not facing most of these problems then you are using another rom or device :cool: , any way , thanks for your advice , and suggest me a suitable title

I don't use WP7 as a daily driver, but I have experienced exactly 0 of the problems in your list. I think you're really exaggerating the situation as it's clearly nowhere near as bad as you suggest.

I do think it's a great idea to keep a list of known issues, and you're obviously doing a great job of that. I just think you're making it sound like a bigger issue than it is. For every person that has had issues there will be many, many more that has not. That's all.

I just wouldn't be happy if I was one of the devs and I read this thread. As I said in my last post, it sounds like you are saying every user WILL have every bug on this list, and this is simply nowhere near true.

The Shaky Screen

The Shaky Screen is back. I have an HD2 that has the original screen that exhibits the Shaky Screen issue. I addressed it with the reduced sensitivity .cab that someone released for 6.5 but now that I've got Phone 7 on my HD2 the shaky screen issue is back and it makes the phone pretty much useless. I know the reg hacks to adjust the screen sensitivity in 6.5 but I'm not sure about adjusting these in Phone 7. I can't even browse the Hardware portion of the reg to confirm that they exist, etc.

Is there anyone else who has an older T-Mobile HD2 with this issue? I'm looking for a fix or at least a suggestion of how I should address this.

Thanks!

My htc hd2 doesnt start

Hello everybody,

My Htc hd2 won't start.

2 Days ago I flashed it to WM7 (NAND ofcourse)

And today the battery of the phone was totally of..

So I charged it for a while and nothing seems to happen.

When I push any button ...it wouldnt start.

Can SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] cabela:
You need to charge that battery in another phone or stand charger. This is a known issue. I don't know any other workaroud but I beleive the phone will not charge the battery when it's turned off so now that your battery is dead, it will never charge the battery.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bozatoza:
This is known maglard issue. This steps works for me every time.

1. Remove battery and after few seconds place it back.

2. Connect your phone with PC through USB

3. Now enter bootloader by pressing Vol Down and Power buttons at same time.

4. Leave it connected for a few minutes.

5. Disconnect your phone from PC and remove battery for a few seconds.

6. Now place battery back and power up your phone.

7. You will start WP7 and now you can continue charging battery normaly.

I have been flashing my phone since I got it, I have tried countless numbers of Android and WM 6.5 builds. Finally I am done. There are less bugs with this build flashed on my phone than I have had with any finished OS' the issues I have with it are mostly WP7 issues that an update from Microsoft will be required to fix such as the Bluetooth limitations, not being able to use Swype, no option to see dBm instead of useless bars of signal, no inbuilt file explorer, hidden WiFi not accessible etc.

The closest things I am seeing to a problem is that the lack of a camera button means the half press to focus does not work so I am looking forward to a button remap. Slightly quieter than I would prefer in call volume both Bluetooth and normal. Multi-touch works great in most applications but not all, this seems to be application specific can anyone else confirm?

Other than those things everything works perfectly, battery drain was at a day and a half plus but now I have 5 different Exchange accounts working over push I am seeing about 14 hours. Everything is super responsive, lock screen, menu's email etc. One thing I was expecting to miss from Android was the Google Voice app since I have messaging blocked on my account, yet the app Free Talk took care of that want for me.

I did have some issues early on but a call to Microsoft for one of my five free codes per a live ID they explained got me up and running plus a few of the registry hacks and my Market is quick (provided Wifi download) and gets me whatever I want.

Just because I think it is pointless to post issues or success and not provide relavent information to everyone else this is my configuration on my TMOUS device.

Radio 2.15.50.14

HSPL 2.8

MAGLDR 1.12

(Make sure you have the above configuration and if you have problems trust me it is your SD card)

Class 4 4GB SanDisk

2 Problems and 1 Question

So far there are TWO problems I've noticed

1) Headsets do not allow you to dial out when you try and make a call. I have the HD2 headphones with the controls and microphone (the one that came with the phone) and when I tried to make a call it would give me that immediate *beep, beep* sound and hung up (tried it on different numbers). So far this seems constant.

2) When in a call and you have to use the dial pad to dial a number (like when it says "push 1 for english 2 for spanish, etc.") your FIRST time in pressing the number works fine. Afterwords if you put your phone to your cheek again and try and make another selection you would have to press the dialpad button again for it to somehow register you pressing a number. If you don't then you can press the number over and over and for some reason it wont register that you're pressing it.

As for my question. Has anyone used an extended battery yet?

"everytime i turn the phone off and boot it back up all my settings are gone, rebooting it several times will eventually have my settings come back though, yet i've heard no mention of this on XDA."

This happened to me until I purchased another microSD card, put it in and hard reset the phone. After that my settingings stuck without issue.

This is what you can do when battery is totally dead and it wont start

Hi Guys, This is What you can do when your battery is totally discharged and it wont turn on to charge...

1. Remove the battery.

2. Wait for some 10 to 15 seconds.

3. Reconnect the battery.

4. Hold the Volume down button and connect the phone to the computer. It will turn on in recovery mode. Now leave it on for some 10 to 15 min and the phone battery will get charged.

5. Finally turn it on and connect it for charging...

This worked for me so i thought it might help someone out there who is facing a similar problem with the HD2 WP7.

wen i remove the phone from my ear the screen will NOT come up UNLESS the other part hang up.

for example: if the other part use an answering machine, i am able to record my message, but the screen DOES NOT comes up when i remove it from my ear.

if the other part is a friend, and HE hang up the call, my screens lights up, again, sayng "call ended". then return to the home screen.

if i'm in-call, and i expose the phone to a bright light, the screen comes back too, sowhing all in-call options (speaker activation keypad, and some other things)

3.Blurriness while scrolling.

4.When syncing with Zune my internet gets disconncted. I am sure it's phone issue and not the OS as it started with a prior ROM.

Other than that I can not complain.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] chumaj001:
I have quite serious problem with LIVE syncing. It is not specific to HD2, but to all WP7 phones. My phone is fully unlocked and activated. I have new live ID account, which has all my email accounts, facebook, linkedin etc. When I tried to sync LIVE ID to phone it started to act weird. Linked in contatcs were synced, but empty, gmail contacts were without pictures etc. After I tried to remove everything from live and phone and then add it again and sync it, it started to sync and didnt stop. I have 350 contacts, but the syncing continued and was still updating the contacts, after several minutes, when it reached 10.000 non existent contacts, I wanted to stop it. Not possible, I had to turn off wifi and it continued on 3G, i had to turn all data connections to stop it.

So, I deleted my live contacts again and tried to sync my phone, so it would delete all contacts in phone. It started syncing again, but aftere deleting about half of the contacts, it again went into that loop and i had to stop it and delete the contacts manually. After that, I changed server settings for this account, so it will not be able to connect (which is the only way how to prevent your main Live ID to do it) and connected my old live account, where everything synced just fine.

As I said, this is happening even with regular WP7 phones and there is no answer from microsoft for that. Only way would be hard reset, which is something I dont want to do right now.

Scrolling in email and internet

Hello everyone,

the issue I have is driving me nuts and I am not able to find anyone else with this problem.

My HD2 is working fine, except for one little (big) problem.

Scrolling does not work but only if I read email or browse the internet. Other problem I have: I'm not able to open any attachment to my email (txt, .cer :-() both in an outlook account and gmail account.

I've tried 3 different SD Card, downloaded the ROM twice and flashed the phone at least 4 times.

I've tried installing Android or WM6.5 and obviously everything is fine.

Any idea of what it could be?

Thank you in advance.

My issues :

- no more LED notification for received messages (sms etc.), which was a useful function.

- the known "no AF" problem on the camera

- the known "compass doesn't work" problem

- the known "WiFi MAC adress changes every time" problem

other than that, it seems to work fine (I don't know about battery life, I'll see when I use it normally and not leaving the wifi on all the time to download apps), I like the new design, and it is very fluid, more than HTC sense in fact. I hope these problems can be solved soon, especially the last three.

Edit : I forgot that ...

- the luminosity sensor seems not to work either, because despite the luminosity being set to automatic, it never changes, whatever the lighting conditions are.

Random Reset/Reboot/Reflash

After a whole 12 hours with no problems my HD2/7 re-set itself again.

Normally (at least 5 times yesterday) I'd reflash and start again, but after this mornings efforts (see post in SD Card thread) I thought I'd see what else I could do.

>Settings >Region & Language >Display Language

The settings after the phone had reset itself were English U.S. This meant no apps, no accounts, no contacts, no memory card and no hope!!

I changed these back to English U.K. (selected during initial set up) and hit the restart link.

All apps up and running, all settings as they were before the random reset.

If you try this instead of reflashing, obviously change the language setting to what you set it to during initial set up i.e. your home country.

Anyone else having this problem might try and fix with this, let us know if it works for you.

The general consensus is that the reboot/reset/reflash issue is caused by slow or incompatible storage cards, I'm going to get a new one right now so I dont have this problem anymore.

It seems that this thread is fast becoming useless. When the thread was begun the only HD2 WP7 ROM was the one released by DFT. Now there are several HD2 WP7 ROMS. One ROM may have a problem that is solved in another ROM, and unless a poster states what ROM he/she is using, it is impossible to differentiate and identify the problems and solutions of the various ROMS.

I suggest that posters state which version of the HD2 WP7 ROM they are using.

Well i tried both the Cotulla version and the Twilight version, but i got the same problem. My HD2 is waterdamaged, which causes the backlight to turn off sometimes (microperror actually), but after the phone was returned from the repair-center, it only happened like, 1 time in 2 months, which is a big improvement. This was with WM6.5 and Android (Both NAND & SD), but when i use WP7, the backlight turn off every to 2 minutes. To solve the problem temporarily, i have to press "End" key, it turns off again, unlock the phone, with the backlight off, move around in the menus, press "End" button again, which locks the phone, and THEN press "End" again to turn the backlight on again, where it usually works for 2 minutes. Can this problem be solved? :)
