warning

Its best for you if you do not try to update your phone. Either get used to it or just sell it. There are rom update tutorials on this site. Just search for rom update tutorial, if you must try. The official htc software is not for this phone, if you install it, your phone will no longer work, and you wont be able to fix it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
No, its ok so long as you have a regular hd2 locked to t mobile as discussed in earlier posts.

Just to double confirm, if your phone has green send key,then STOP DANGER

But I think we're dealing with white send key, so normal hd2, and the target Tom isn't 3.14

So,,,

assuming white end key.

Phone backed up and off

Press hold keep holding volume down

Tap and release power keep holding volume down

When striped coloured screen appears

Plug in USB

On PC run hspl2

In dropdown choose 2.08.hspl

When it completes and phone starts to reboot immediately hold volume down again to return to stripey screen (bootloader)

When says USB at the bottom and split at top says 2.08.hspl run the .exe you downloaded from HTC

If you get connection errors, timeouts, leave the phone and just swap USB ports. When running hspl.exe right click it and "run as administrator"

(That's the last time I'm gonna write those out in full, there must be 500 identical step by steps and half as many YouTube vids. :) )

If your send key is green DO NOT DO THIS

Hi, is there a way to replace system apps with my own app, like replace semchome with launcher pro, music with zimly, that doesnt cause any problems like missing apps notification error ?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Akath19:
You have to download the replacements and delete the system apps, however I'd search the forums on how to do that since not all of the system apps can be replaced without seriously breaking the OS.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] leminhnguyen0703:
Did anyone tried replacing system apps with own app ?

Sent from the awesome XDA App :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Buddha:
you need to be rooted to change you entire phone :p
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] loger8:
What for? just uninstall the system apps you dont want and use whatever you want as default. I removed semchome, music, semcalarm, and all the semc **** i could eliminate, which was quite a lot.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Divr:
All he mention above I could delete without rupercussion, one thing however is a bit annoying. I delete the stock messaging apps and the notification for the go SMS stop working. Need to actually reinstall the messaging apk
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] leminhnguyen0703:
Lol FYI I have my phone rooted ages ago :p

Sent from the awesome XDA App :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] loger8:
Nah, those programs have their own custom notification. i actually uninstalled conversations.apk, timescape craps, the stopwatch and the timer too... oh, the browser too. i don't know if I'm forgetting something. ah, the facebook app. em. calls too. and contacts. and mail. i uninstalled everything i could, lol xD. oh, the calendar too.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hehe13:
replacement for neo reader? why replace it anyway?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gorunn:
Heh, yea, i replaced bunch of apps too.. Home (launcherProPlus),Conversations (Handcent SMS), Album(Gallery3D Fixed), Calendar (stock android 2.1), Phonebook (Contapps), Music Player ( Music Mod), browser ( Skyfire browser), Clock (Minimalistic Text), lockscreen (Widget Locker) and keyboard (skandinavian keyboard)..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Divr:
I know but the thing is I've disabled the stock notification and enabled the go sms notification and when I delete it, this happen.

Q1 - WHEN SPRINT RELEASES THE OFFICIAL UPDATE WILL I BE ABLE TO DO THE UPDATE THEY PROVIDE THE SAME AS IF I DIDNT INSTALL THE OFFICIAL UNOFFICIAL VERSION?

Q2 - IS THERE ANYWAY TO GO BACK TO MY 2.1 - DO I JUST DO A FACTORY RESET. HOW COMPLICATED IS IT?

PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!

1) Maybe but probably not.

2) Yes, although not by factory reset. You'd probably need a Stock 2.1 ROM and flash back the way you just did.
[General Questions and Answers] kingmorton:

stock 2.1 rom??? im assuming you mean some sort of zip file with the 2.1 OS on it.

do you know where I can find one, for the epic 4g???

Is no a setting is a Rom problem!!!

The onlyone have this fix is Frankeinstine ROM.

The problem is rom need to be modified for up the size of the MMS from 300k to 1024k.

Speak with you favorite rom developer to fix it or download Frankistine ROM.

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
it could also be to do with the user agent your phone presents to teh network. on mine (o2 uk, cyangone mod rom) i recieve tiny pics, but using the tweak in the messaging client to present itself as a nokia n95 i get image sizes as expected.

Go to the android messaging program > settings > custom user-agent > custom > type in NexusOne.

Try to send a MMS to yourself and see if that helps.

Hi all :)

I've installed an application I've written and it works perfectly on the device..the problem is..where can I find the apk on the device? :D what's the location?

thanks in advance for the answers :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
Root -> System -> app

Use OI File Manager.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salv0:
uhm so I need a rooted device to access this, right? :( there's no other way?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
Sorry, my bad.

I didn't mean you need to root the phone. I meant starting from the directory root.

Using OI File Manager, tap on the home icon "A house" then tap system folder then app folder (should be first).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
the apk is stored in /data/app/, app data is stored in /data/data/
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
you need root to view any folders in /system :)

Cheers. I root phones as soon as I get them so I forget what can and can't be done without it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salv0:
can I do something with adb even if I haven't root?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
no only superusers have r/w permission to /system, without root only android system has read permission and no one has write permission lol :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav2511:
Hi,

I've searched a lot for my issue, but seems to me that im not getting the solution probably because this is my first android, my first root, and my first custom firmware install.

I rooted my HTC Desire with Unrevoked 3 and tried installing the Oxygen Custom ROM RC7. Rooting went okay. I tried installing the Oxygen ROM and it gets stuck in a loop at the Oxygen Logo.

Now, i did notice other people having the same troubles but there were no solutions to offer for that. Also i think a part of the problem may be the jargans, nevertheless i tried to search for a solution but could not find one.

Was really looking forward to Ginger bread. Any Help ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Do a full wipe (data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache under advanced) and flash again. Also keep in mind that the boot up time is longer than a normal boot. (not more than 5 to 10 min)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J4M350N:
when i booted the oxygen rc6 the first time it got stuck too... after almost 20 min. i just removed the battery and booted again and it worked

[EVO 4G General] Likeachampion3:
I can't seem to find this issue via search...my Nand backups are taking a ridiculous amount of time to complete. I ran one last night and went to bed, and it was still going several hours later. I cleared some space on my sdcard and ran another one this morning but it is still cranking almost two hours later. I have done them before and it has always been completed in under 30 minutes. What gives?

Am I being impatient or should it not be taking this long? The one that went all night and hadn't completed was pushing 7 hours...I did a battery pull to stop it. The nand file itself was getting close to a GB of data, but I deleted it since it was likely incomplete.
[EVO 4G General] cruise350:
Aman Ra's new recovery has alot more options for its nand backup including backing up ext partitions. My nand files are larger the 1 GB these days so it may take awhile. But 7 hours is ridiculous, mine usually take less than 30 min.

It worked fine after flashing CW 2.6, just an update.
[General Questions and Answers] jinx0117:
OK...Let me first start by saying thank you to all the people here at XDA that have tried to help me with my new phone. I build themes for the Google Android Market and when I went to the HTC HD2, Windows was not helping me at all. Thanks to everyone I was able to, being a NOOB as you call it, flash my first NAND to my phone. It works great!! Sure there are a few bugs here and there but it is great.

Now there is an update. My phone will connect to the PC via USB, however when I try to run the DAF.exe to flash the update......no dice. I keep getting the same error.

Error happen

Read below for more information

Error Description: USB init failed

Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (723)

My Radio is current, my MAGDL thingy is current as far as I know 1.11, and no one can tell me really how to get around this issue....well let me correct that....there is the way of starting I think from the beginning however that scares me to death considering I do not really know where to look for the Windows Stock rom to flash to my phone, and if I make a mistake and brick my phone.....oh man am I screwed.....oops can you say that on here? I mean in big trouble.

Anyway.....don't want to write a book, I know too late, just looking to fix the issue or just learn how to get around my USB connection issue.....Thanks again to everyone on the board, you are all great and very good at what you do.....I can never get over how smart the human race really is.......it is truly an amazing thing.....

If you have a warranty with HTC, and no warranty with T-Mo, and you bought a G1 from T-Mo and turned out to be defective...is there any way HTC will replace it?

Also do any of you know if theres any way to sweet talk customer service into replacing a phone if u dont have a contract?
[General Topics] copualt3:
yes, HTC fixed my defective sim slot on my tmobile HD2 without a tmobile contract. i called HTC and explained the situation and was told to sent it in. So if your phone was found to be factory defect then i would think HTC will fix it.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spaghetti-XRY:
Hi, it happens a strange thing to me. I'm on Modaco customized ROM and i can't gain root.

I start my phone from recovery console (clockworkmod is installed) and it shows:

ACE PVT ENG S-OFF

(radio-26.03.02.08_M)

Os Vers. - 1.32.707.1 and CID 11111111 so I should've root access.

When I boot my ROM, and I go to check version number it says 1.72.

So I, Enable USB-Debugging on phone, do thes commands:

adb install AndroidTerm.apk
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/
adb push gfree /data/local/tmp/
adb push rage /data/local/tmp
adb push root /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/*
adb push su /sdcard/
adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/

*Start the Terminal app on phone and type:

/data/local/tmp/rage

* Wait until I see the message "Forked #### childs.", reset Terminal (menu > Reset Term). The Terminal app will close, launch it again. It will force close, launch it again.

Then when I try to launch terminal again my phone freezes. And I can't get root access. Titanium backup says that Superuser application close in an unknown way and also through an application called "Root Check" it says that i'm not rooted. How's it possible? What I'm supposed to do? I also tried with su command from terminal...

I've used ADW Launcher, Launcher Pro and both these launchers for some reason squish/reduce ALL the damn dock icons [even HD icons] down to ridiculous levels. It makes the dock look like a wack job put together by an 8 year old, it makes the dock look infinitely bad. I'm sick of this stupid n00by ****.

So are there any launchers who do NOT squeeze down the damn dock icons to insignificance? I just need the damn dock icons to LOOK like icons, not stupid friggin bastid icon childs.

[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Hey all,

I am attempting to restore Vibrant back to 2.1 in order to try out Samsung's official 2.2. When I go into Download Mode and plug up to the PC, ODIN detects the phone, but it will randomly give the noise where you unplug something from USB, and ODIN will say removed, then almost immediately say my phone is added again. I'm nervous to try flashing at this point because I don't want that to happen while I'm restoring to 2.1.

I'm running Windows 7 x64. Has anyone had this problem?
[Vibrant General] jmcghee1973:
Run as admin..
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
The problem still persists after doing this.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
Reboot the pc and try a different usb port then make sure odin is open before you plug the phone into the pc.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Tried this as well, no different result.

Windows 7 is saying:

USB device not recognized

Device driver was not successfully installed

Unidentified device: (red x) device unplugged

SAMSUNG Mobile Modem: ready to use

I'm currently using Nero v5 with voodoo lagfix disabled
[Vibrant General] masterotaku:
Sounds like you could have something as simple as a bad or fatigued USB port or cable. I've seen this sort of behavior with USB devices before and it's usually from a port connection making poor or intermittent contact. Whether it's a port on your cable (either end), your phone, or the ports on your PC...hard to say...
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
Have you tried reinstalling the drivers from Samsung's Vibrant support page?
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Yes that was the next thing I did. Same result. Is there an issue with the drivers I'm using because of the ROM I'm running? Do I need different drivers?
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
That ROM should have no effect on the drivers. Have you tried installing the drivers by updating the kies program? You might have to install the drivers and software first.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Yes sir, Kies is up to date as well, and says unrecognized device (obviously lol).

As an aside, as I keep trying and trying, now windows is telling me a usb device has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
To rule out a problem with windows have you tried a different usb device on the pc?
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Yes, I just plugged my ipod in and am using it as normal. I am also able to use the phone in mass storage mode as well. The problem only seems to occur when the phone is plugged in during download mode.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
I think your driver is corrupt. You should uninstall kies and the usb driver, reboot, and reinstall. Stupid question, have you tried a battery pull on the phone?
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Ok, I will try that now. I have entered download mode with and without the battery. I will let you know in a few minutes after uninstalling kies and the drivers, and reinstalling the drivers.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
When you try odin are you:

1. Opening odin.

2. Selecting the pit and tar files.

3. Putting the phone into download mode.

4. Plugging the phone into the PC.

In that order?
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
I was opening Odin, putting phone into DL mode, plugging it in, and then messing with the files. When I started the thread this morning it would remove / add constantly, and then it went to not detecting my phone at all and giving me the error message (only in DL mode) once I installed and updated Kies. Reinstalling Samsung drivers now, just rebooted.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Just reinstalled drivers and attempted in the order you provided, and windows is still saying that there was a malfunction with the device.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
Can you try a different usb cable?

Kies is still installed right?

Can you use a different pc?
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Yes. My sister has the same phone and cable. I'll borrow hers and see if that helps. I appreciate the quick responses, by the way. Thank you very much.

Would the cable only cause it to act up during DL mode and not regular? I can mount normally, etc.

Edit: Odin detects my phone while it's turned on normally. I don't supposed that helps me any.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
If there is a bad connection you can have issues.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Kies was not reinstalled. Should I reinstall that as well?
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
If odin can see the phone and the COM is yellow let me know.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
You have to install kies as well.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Odin sees the phone and the COM3 is yellow. This is while the phone is on though, with USB debug on, not in DL mode. Reinstalling Kies now.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
You're almost good to go, but install kies first before starting odin. I have an idea.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Ok, Kies has been installed. Odin was open in the background as I installed Kies, was that not good? I haven't tried anything further. What's the plan :)
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
Sent you a PM.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
Replied to your PM.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
PMd again.
[Vibrant General] Passtschon:
After deliberating with MoWeb for a while, we decided it was a driver issue. I followed all the same processes on my old desktop running windows xp, and it worked perfectly. I'm now on the Official TMO 2.2. Thanks so much for your time MoWeb.
[Vibrant General] MoWeb:
You're welcome. I'm glad you solved it.
