I believe for android you need a 2.08 or higher radio.

Also give SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 a go, you can download the free 15 day trial from microsofts marketplace as it makes the HD2 a dream to use with WM.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaymo10:
Just downloaded that SPB.... Brilliant. It gives a total different feel to the phone. Will try it out on the freebie version and if all OK throughout the trial period I will def buy it. I do think its far too expensive but its cheaper than stamping on my phone with frustration at the crappy windows default environment ;-)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesut19:
Hello,

When I plugin my earphones in the 3.5MM jack of my DHD it makes a weird noise, I think that's normal it because it means that it is connecten I think. It's like the oldschool televisions when you have no reception it makes a weird sound 'BGGGG' like but this doesn't even last a half second. BUT if I play a little bit//when I my jack is in, and I spin it a little bit, you hear it sometimes again.

I was wondering, is it broken or a defect or is it normal that if you spin with the plugout of your headphones that it sometimes makes a weird sound? It doesn't really bother me or sometimes when I am listing to music but I am a little bit scared that it is defect :p

Thank you!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErOR22:
When you plug it in the noise your describing is normal but only then should that noise be heard for a split second.

Maybe it's you headphone 3.5mm jack end that is the problem or wires. Try with different headphones and see if they make the same sound.

I just tried this now and I get no extra weird noise when I rotate the plug.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] stespi:
After i changed my old HD2 because of a demage, i had a problem with the new one. With every android image the automatically display rotation doesn't work. For testing i installed a original htc windows image with and without t-mobile branding, and on both images the rotation works. Because of that, the sensor can not be damaged.

When i look with adb to the logcat log, there comes a message

"Couldn't find or open 'compass' driver"

Did anyone have an idea, what i can do to fix this problem?

Regards

stespi
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] stespi:
After i reinstalled Windows Mobile i looked at the browser and the rotation works. Then i looked the original compass app, and theres a big problem. The compass stays ever on 5812°(!?!) degree. Because of that i brought it to T-Mobile to change it. It is the second change. Hopefully the next HD2 will not have the same problem.
[Defy General] tjdmobile:
Just got my unlock today, so put my AT&T SIM in, booted up the defy, and now I am getting error messages back (as SMS messages) from +1121611611 indicating I need to use a valid 10 digit number.

From what I assume, it's a T-Mobile app sending a message to their own network for whatever reason, so AT&T can't deliver it. Well not only have I gotten at least 12 of these in the last couple of hours, but I get to pay for them on my AT&T TXT plan. Nice.

Any idea what might be in the OEM (though rooted) Defy ROM that's sending out garbage to the TMO network? I am doing a Clockwork backup, and plan to attempt a motorola blur removal, and whatever else you smart and helpful people can suggest.

Your input is very much appreciated!

PS - I should mention I have no trouble sending or receiving REAL mms/sms messages. These errors come from out of the blue, with no action on my part.
[Defy General] Sutitan:
I had received a similar message from Vodafone Romania while I was there.

Unfortunately, I wasnt able to load a custom/blurless rom to see if that fixed it at the time.
[Defy General] tjdmobile:
Just more information - My detail on AT&T shows that my phone is "sending an SMS" to number 1122. That's the reason for the error, so now I need to figure out what in the Defy sends sms to 1122.

Hmmm.
[Defy General] chaihg:
Once backup is done flash 2.34 blurless rom from higgsy guide. Then flas the correct radio from other guides here. Hopefully shud be good by then.
[Defy General] Beach_Head:
Interested in this as well...

Would anyone know what's sending the SMS messages?
[Defy General] Inlined:
VisualVoiceMail.apk sends SMS every 5 minutes. You may disable it by running "pm disable com.motorola.android.vvm" under root prompt.
[Defy General] Beach_Head:
Do you know why it does that?

Can we just delete that apk or is it needed by the system? Is it T-Mo bloatware?

Thanks!
[Defy General] tjdmobile:
Sweet, going to try that later. Thank you!

EDIT: I THINK IT'S SOLVED!!! I am at work, so put my AT&T SIM in there after removing VisualVoiceMail.apk using Root Uninstaller. No SMS error messages so far. Thanks again Inlined!

Further Edit: Worked great on my unlocked Vibrant as well. I think I need to thank Inlined again :)
[Defy General] strudlenudle:
What unlock service did you use for the defy, I am trying to get one unlocked
[Defy General] runeblade:
I can tell you right now that it's not limited to just the defy. I have a Razr from when I was on TMobile before, got it unlocked and used it as a backup phone on ATT. I always got the same messages on bootup. Came back to TMobile, put my sim in the phone...no more. I can only assume its some type of internal registration that happening.
[EVO Shift 4G General] James.Q.Campbell:
Ok, this is my first Droid phone, so I'm still trying to figure it all out.

My default text message app is driving me crazy. It randomly decides to scroll up and down when it feels like it.

So, I've installed ChompSPS to use as my messaging app. No more random scrolling, so I'm happy.

The problem is, I can't figure out how to disable the default service notification.

I've been through settings -> sounds -> notifications but all I can find is a setting to change my ringtone for everything, and I can't find a general page for notifications.

So, how do I disable the default text message notifications?
[EVO Shift 4G General] yokken:
i have some friends that used Handcent SMS on different phones and ran into the duplicate notification problem as well. i guess this post doesn't help much since i have no solution to offer, but just so you know, you're not the only one who's had trouble with this.
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
Go into the stock messaging app settings and turn off notifications there.
[EVO Shift 4G General] James.Q.Campbell:
Thanks

The solution is often simple, isn't it?

Thanks.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BuddahWolf01:
Also, fyi: this is an android phone. Not a Droid phone. Droid is a line of phones in the same since that Galaxy S is a line of phones. Android is the operating system that runs all these phones.

And the other user is correct. Change setting in the OEM messaging app to keep from having duplicate notifications.
[Windows Mobile Themes] philzgr8:
Here's a fairly simple widget request (I think) which I hope somebody could take on.

Introduction:

I currently use G-Profile as my profile changer because I have found it suits my needs better than any other. G-Profile has the ability to replace the Operator with the name of the current profile so in order to see my current profile in CHT I just leave the custom operator text blank in the CHT editor. This works reasonably well except for a couple of issues. Firstly, the operator text on CHT is fairly small so someone with my relatively poor eyesight might find it hard to see. Secondly, when the phone is in landscape mode there is no way to display the operator text and I usually have the phone in landscape when in the car.

The Request:

Now I guess the simplest solution to this is for someone to just make a resizable widget to display the Operator. This would allow it to be placed on the landscape screen as well as being very readable.

Here's an alternative for someone who might be a bit more experienced in developing. What about a widget which displays an image in a specified location with the same name as the profile defined in G-Profile. To me (as a non-developer) this sounds like it should be relatively easy.

Any takers? Please!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
Your gonna need to provide some more details before you get an answer....

What do you mean by "jailbreak"?...... HSPL??

How did you "put android on it"?........ flashed to NAND? on SD card?

What happens when connected to computer??............. nothing? error message?

Try explaining exactly what you did, step by step and someone might be able to tell you whats gone wrong.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Move:
and you haven't said whether android is running or not.

still, if android is running, you need to have some kind of program installed on the computer, and dependent on your android version, you might want to check the notification bar on top to see USB connection options.

and probably you should check in the android section :/
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheCasper:
This is my first for anything like this. I have a Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2, and want to put the latest version of XDANDROID on it. But, have no clue which version or where to start. I would like to eventually get in to building on my own. Could someone please help get me started?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] AkumaX:
to get started, it really doesn't get any simpler than downloading the latest FRX03 from here:

http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/downloads

(i'd recommend the RAR version, so you can unzip it into your SD card faster)

after that, just use WM's file explorer navigate to andboot and run haret.exe and you're "done"

----

(optional) with a little bit of more effort, go into the top sticky of this forum, and update to the latest Kernel (1253). the current Kernel in FRX03 from Dec 20 is (i believe) 1232.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
It's sort of that easy, but I had this same question before I did it too. It would have been nice if the FAQ said this explicitly.

If you download the rar archive, it will extract out in its own subdirectory, e.g.

XDAndroid2.2Froyo.XXxxXX/andboot/...

The first thing I do is move the andboot subdirectory to the root of the SD card.

The next thing is to edit the andboot/startup.txt file to match your phone. I guess you can use the XDAndroidStartup utility to take care of this instead, but the first time I tried that it failed because of that silly runtime dependency.

If you want to use the startup utility, and it gives you an error and refuses to run, you need to install the updated net framework like it talks about on this page:

http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/startup-utility

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheCasper:
quick question, do I always have to have the sim card out when running ANDROID?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
If your phone is in GSM mode, you'll want it in. Check your startup.txt, you'll need force_cdma=0 in there.

If you're on CDMA, I believe you do have to have the SIM removed, yes. Also, the above command should have a 1 instead of 0.

^^ I'm not positive about that piece, but I do know that Android on our phones will only recognize one or the other - GSM or CDMA. Maybe we'll get it to recognize both one day, I saw an entry for it in the RIL...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheCasper:
I do know that I have CDMA. Plus how do update the kernel, where do I put it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You simply replace your existing kernel and modules.

So delete the existing zImage/modules-xxxx.tar.gz, and put in the new zImage/modules-xxx.tar.gz. Don't rename the modules file, but be sure the zImage file is named just that - zImage.

The files go where you run haret.exe from - typically the root of the SD, or in /andboot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheCasper:
UH-OH, not sure what happened. I reformated my SD card to do a new run since I found what I wanted. Now it seems like I can do everything but make calls in WM6.5. What do I do :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Android should have no effect on WinMo (assuming you're using haret/install on your SD). Plus, this really isn't a place to get help with WinMo.

Do the usual - soft reset, hard reset, reflash of stock ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheCasper:
I know, I'm trying to put android on it and I am using haret from the SD card. I'm just not sure if this is will effect android or is a common problem. Thanks though, I have been going through those things while i wait.

Hi everyone!,

So I spent all of yesterday trying to go back to 2.1 from zdzihu's FreeX10 rom, and I thought a lot of the information should be easier to find!

1. Download this file and copy it to the root of your sdcard

2. Reboot your phone and open xRecovery

3. Install custom zip from sdcard and select SE_update_shipped-full.zip

4. Reboot phone

5. Reinstall xRecovery

6. Download 2.0.2.A.0.24 update from zdzihu here

7. Unpack the .tar

8. Copy update.zip file to root of sdcard

9. Reboot phone and open xRecovery

10. Install update.zip from sdcard

11. Remove battery

12. Insert battery

13. Turn on phone and enter into flash mode

14. Flash the .sin files from step 6 to your phone

Thats it! Reboot your phone and your done!

If you did not back up before going to 2.2 and before new root ability for .24 yes, if backup up just restore, if not with new flash, flash .24 level then root.

??? I can't understand what you're talking about. xRecovery backup screwed it up when I restored and i couldn't enter flash mode, so.....
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tony_C:
Initially, .24 could not be rooted, zdzihu came up with that 2 step process. It was the only way to a rooted .24 until SuperOneClickv1.5.5 then a root process was added to the new flash tool.

Also many ROMs now available for Xrecovery

When you cannot use normal method to get into flash, this trick works.

Leave USB cable pluged in, both ends.

Remove battery, leave out for 10 sec. or so.

Hold back key in, while holding key re-insert battery.

Just trying to point out there are now some easier ways available.
