It all comes down to the basics. If you do not know what a kitchen actually does, then there probably is no point in cooking to start of with.

Kitchens available today make a lot of things heaps easier than they were several years ago.

Try starting with this thread.... it is not for your device, but you get to learn the basics and actually understand what happens in the background.

Cooking is not just clicking around with your mouse.
[Windows Mobile] Fish-Man:
This may be new to me, but it also was to EVERY cook there is, or has been at sometime. We all learn something new at some time, and all I was asking for is a little starter to get me going. I realaise it isn't a point and click exercise, otherwise I would have made a ROM by now, and not asked for help. I didn't write the software for the kitchen, so I don't know how it works.

Thanks for that, I hadn't seen that one, but unfortunately, it also doesn't give the procedure for starting with a WM6.1 ROM and adding/changing files to end up with a WM6.5 Native Kernel.

Please, give me a break.
[Windows Mobile] pkoper:
Using search you would have found the native kernel:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=619663

Thats exactly what I meant. Do you know what the kernel actualy is?
[Windows Mobile] Fish-Man:
Thanks, but I already have them. They are "files" not a "stock build" that the cooks tell you to start with. Again, do I need to start with a "stock build" of WM6.1, or can I use those WM6.5 "files" instead, if so, what am I missing from the "stock build" that I need to continue ?

Yes, It's a piece of code, usually written in assembly language (for speed of execution), that sits between the hardware devices and the system drivers and programs, to translate what the programs want, to what the hardware can understand, and deliver the results from the hardware, back to the programs.

It is the core of the Operating System, and is the first thing that is loaded into memory when the system boots, and stays there until you turn off the device (unlike other programs that are loaded, and unloaded as needed). It is loaded into a seperate and protected area of memory, where it executes processes, handles interrupts, memory management, process management, file management and I/O management.

The User, cannot interract directly with the kernel (or hardware), but has to go via a seperate program (usually containing a GUI), that can send it's requests to the kernel for processing. After the kernel has processed the programs requests, the kernel gives the information to the program, which then outputs it to the User.

Is that enough of an explanation ? Sorry I had to simplify it, but there are a lot of other noobs here that may have gained some knowledge from that, so rather than blow thier minds with acronyms and babble, I thought it best to explain it simply.

Now, are there any more questions you want me to answer, before telling me what I need to know, to understand the first few steps in cooking a ROM ?

[Windows Mobile] sharkie405:
I don't think what you're looking for exist, persay. There are several kitchens out there to choose from. The only thing that helped me when starting out was frequenting the thread of the kitchen that I was using. It's in the kitchen's thread that you'll find all the nitty gritty answers you're looking for and other people that are in the same boat as you, and more experienced users of the same kitchen who would probably be more apt at answering questions about specific kitchen.

Nice quick knowledge drop on kernel. It sounds to me like you already have a better grasp on things then some! ;)
[Windows Mobile] pkoper:
Thats because there is no stock 6.5 for the Kaiser. Not sure what "those WM6.5 files" are, but you do need the drivers for your device. Any leaked build will not contain those.

Dumping a stock rom will give you insight as to what is actually in the rom. When you then download one of the leaked builds you can you will recognize the files and hence see what needs replacing in order to upgrade.

What kitchen are you using? As there are obviously slight differences as to what is where.

I would just get a ready kitchen and study it.

Hi XDA

Long time lurker, first time poster.... so my digitizer has given up and it time for a trip back to HTC. Problem is that when I tried to remove HSPL back to SPL, the rollback failed and printed this error: 00028002 NOT ALLOW. I have a feeling that it was because I installed WWE 1.48 stock ROM instead of 1.43.

Since that error message, the start up screen is stuck with a triangle and an exclamation mark in the middle. Sooo I tried to install 1.43 via SD card through the bootloader, but it won't as it is supposedly the wrong ROM. It displays 'Upgrade ROM code error. Please try again'. Though the upside is that the bootloader indicates it is back to SPL.

Anyway, is there a way to find the correct stock ROM for my HD2 through the serial code of something?

On a related note: I bought it from Ebay a few months ago from a local seller here in Australia, the invoice notes Hong Kong as its origin.
[HD2 General] fred_up:
Go to HTC's website, support section, select HD2, ROM Update.

Select a ROM (either HTC or telecom branded), then you will be required to enter your phone's serial number. If you get an invalid message, then you are trying to download a ROM that is not allowed for your phone - try another one. If the phone is SIM Locked to an operator then that is most likely the ROM you need to download.
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
I hate to tell you this but if its from Hong Kong the likelihood is that youve been sold a fake/clone.

It may look like a HD2 and it may even have WM6.5 but it also may not actually be a HD2 (ie have the real hardware).

I found my battery life is around 8-10 hours for minimal usage using WP7

specification using

hspl 2.08

radio newest one

sdcard 2GB sandisk

gprs always on using 2G

location turn off

using light background

sync email every hours

so I wanna compare with you guys here who using wp7, is there any one who can get battery life more than 12 hours or so?

with Android I can get more than 24 hours for minimal usage ( call, sms, browsing ).

is it better to reflash/hardreset wp7 again?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Johev:
Well, I have been using it for about a week now and it is bearable, but pretty and extremely fluid :)

Regarding battery, I only use wifi, so I have 3g off and I surf about 30 min a day with it.

30 min phone calls

15 SMS

Update Gmail and Facebook about 4 times a day.

Play a bit with the phone and it lasts me from 8AM to about midnight that is when I need to charge it again.

So about 16h.

The worst thing about this is that the camera is not really working (all the pictures I've taken do not look as sharp as with the other OS).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hendr1k:
I am not sure about wifi I barely using wifi, always connect with 2g connection... camera sih ok with me since I am never using camera ( only once or twice a week)

just found battery life is kinda disappointing when using WP7.

I consider if my sdcard is not compatible or what. hofully some one here can help me, if mostly can say then can get more than 15 hours so I am pretty sure I need to reflash/hardreset or even change my sdcard to get better result of battery life
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] badassballer:
From the reviews of some other devices on WP7 etc, it seems as if the battery life is an issue in general as is the case with most of the smart phones using these OS's in general -
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] paulrgod:
I've been using it now for a week or so and it fit's my needs perfectly.

I've found only 2 bugs with it mentioned elsewhere by others and even they're nothing worth noting...

Camera doesnt work correctly (i hardly ever use it)...and there's issues with loudspeaker volume (workaround - set at 3) ... other than that nothing...

I'm finding after a full day of use, (wifi and gps switched on) from 8am, an hour or so of music, 15-20 minutes gaming, 4-5 calls and several texts, emails, facebook etc, i have around a quarter battery left at midnight.

Cheers

Paul
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TheOnly1:
Battery life is surely not amazing, but for me it's acceptable. maybe 1-2 hrs less than WM6.5. I make it from 8 am to 7 pm with 30-40 min calls. 3G always on. 1 hr IE on 3G and some 30 min. 3D gaming.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hendr1k:
so its 11 hours for average usage.

I just wondering if sdcard class with affect battery life? since wp7 is kinda like raid0 which cannot be separated between internal memory and sdcard.

hopefully with higher class of sdcard if will affect battery life for wp7
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] abbas:
I have been using it since last week Thursday and its been excellent for me, I even think the battery seems better than on android. Its been my main phone since. The still camera is the only issue I have. I think iPhone has a worthy competitor in WP7.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Canterbury:
judging by you're avatar 7pm is probably close to your bed time anyway :)

I'm really enjoying wp7, running for 5days now and mostly smooth.

Some apps like IE stag occasionally and some times the touch screen seems a little unreponsive mainly in settings screens.

Obviously not the easiest of OS's to switch in and out of like android due to the sd card, and not being able to charge the battery when the phone is off is an issue.

Main concerns but tolerable:

Not being able to sync directly with outlook (gmail workaround)

Battery drain is excessive (though i'm not usually far from pc->usb charge

Lack of software (obviously, but also finding the good from the bad)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bigtall10:
Do not forget the sms receiving issue people. Been using for three days straight and all working fine but suddenly sms seems to stop coming.....and by that I mean it would take hours to recieve or send an sms and when it finaly does come...no notification and no home tile count.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] spikerosoft:
battery life is really bad for me.

on a 10 hour shift on android i can finish with 40-50% battery left with full data sync on

on wp7 i had to charge my phone at work ( i wasnt sure of exact battery % because i couldnt find this function

im going to dual boot wp7 and android cause wp7 is cool for showing off haha
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] -NRG-:
Works great for me, basic things work great and battery life is ok. I can do a full day with and i do play around make some calls and sms. For me it's as good as android from nand. Too bad camera doesn't work correctly and multitouch.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] KrewsialNL:
It works awesome, though I have the problem here, that the monthly internet package from Vodafone Romania isn't too big, and I found out that this is a 3G hungry OS. (180MB in 3 days, and that is NO downloading of apps!)

That and only because of that, I have to consider rolling back to Android.

Other than that, WP7 is one hell of a mobile OS, that runs very nice on our HD2 phones and would be good for daily use :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] amauris:
I'm very satisfied with this first WP7 release for the Leo. Almost everything is working fine. Except for some bugs which are a little annoying (as mentioned before):

- managing the volume (it's very loud! the alarm in the morning, too...)

- green pictures with camera-flash

- slow app installation (compared to the HTC Mozart it is veeeery slow)

Unfortunately there is no possibility to set up the days and hours for syncing with my exchange (that was possible with ActiveSync in WM6.5). Actually that's not a bug from this DFT-release, but from the WP7 itself. Maybe this will be added with the announced official update.

Finally, I don't think that I'll turn over to WM6.5 or Android again. The design, useability and flawless UI of WP7 on the HD2 is really nice. ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hendr1k:
thats kinda weird some people said they have battery life some doesn't...

I thin its related with sdcard.. bad flash probably.

Look at other thread some peeps suggested change radio rom, try 2.12 and 2.14 still got huge battery drain, even with data connection turn off
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] maxld:
I have 2.14 radio and after all day I had yesterday 30% left. Then I charged it to maximum and left it to see how battery will drain over night, and it didn't even move. So for me battery life is better than in android.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hendr1k:
ok that kinda weird hopefully reflash WP7 with good sdcard will give better battery life.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] htcluver87:
I've had it running, without a reboot for the last four days. I haven't really noticed horrible battery life but then again i am not of it half as much as the Android OS...mostly b/c the apps are GARBAGE and the games are SAD.

I have wifi active at all times, 3g data is really slow for some reason.

It is usable but i would not say fully functional even with reg hack and Microsoft activation hack.

Volume sucks! Way too loud even with min volume and gps sync is all out of whack...map application looks awesome with the real street view but good luck getting to a destination!

Camera is also GARBAGE but other than the sound the 720p video looks great

I really like the simplicity of the OS layout and the fluidity of everything but there needs to be more usability and functionality before i fully adopt although this have been a good learning experience and test for whether or not i want to get the HD7 or just another HD2 for my next phone :)

Going back to android for now...perhaps there will be a NAND ROM soon that has at least 95% functionality without having to call and lie to MS to get codes.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] geddeeee:
I love WP7!!!

Had some battery issues to begin with, but changed radio to 2.14 and then hard reset. For the last 3 days I've had nearly 30 hours on battery. On par with Android. Android is superb as a customizeable OS. So many things you can change.

WP7 is a phone OS, pure and simple. I love the simple interface. Not much you can customize, but the speed more than makes up for it. Messaging is particularly fantastic.

Don't use a light background!!! Use a dark one (black basically). As the screen has to fully light the pixels for a white background (value of 255), using black (dark, value of 0) it doesn't have to light them as much, so the screen uses less power.

Still a few bugs in WP7, also some missing features, but nothing that is a 'show stopper'.

I'm sticking with WP7 and looking forward to the 'official' update....

[Fascinate General] Shakes The AssClown:
Hey Guys,

I have the Samsung Fascinate (verizon). I rooted the phone using the SuperOneClick method and it worked fine. I have Superuser in my apps area. I went into Market and downloaded ROM Manager and then did the Flash Recovery and chose Fascinate. Here is where I get a little confused. I see ROMs on here like Super Clean DL09. I have DL09 already and I just want to flash the ROM but then I see things that you need to flash the radio and kernel with ODIN. I have gone through the stickies but I am a little leary at this point. Any detailed step by step on how to do the radio and kernel and then ROM...or can I just flash the ROM and be fine? Any clarification would be great.
[Fascinate General] SOTK:
You need to flash ClockworkMod through Odin, and then install Clockworkmod through Rom Manager. After all of that, then you can flash Roms through Rom Manager or you manually boot into Clockworkmod recovery and install that way. You don't flash kernels or roms through odin. You flash through clockworkmod. You don't need to worry about the radio as you already have the correct one unless you are planning on trying Dj05 roms/kernels in which case you would need to flash a Dj05 modem.

Keep reading through threads. There's plenty of directions redgarding flashing CWM. Before you start flashing away, make sure you also read up on what to do if you mess up your phone. It would be wise of you to both make a nandroid backup through CWM and to download a complete stock image of dl09 so you can restore in the event you screw up your phone. Just do some more reading so you are prepared.

Here is a link for the The Unlockr. This is where I got the information from and so far it seems to be correct. You said i have to flash clockwork through Odin...they don't mention it there. Not undermining...just trying to make sense of everything. I am going to do a backup (thanks for the reminder). I was just unsure about the radio and kernel stuff. Let me know what you think about this info here at the link

[Fascinate General] Powell730:
You can try and do a back up all you want but until you flash clock work mod via odin you will not have any success. As he stated (or she), you do not need to flash the radio as long as you stay on dl09 roms only. Adrynalyne has provided many kernels for us dl09 users in the development section of our phone.

Interesting site. I prefer xda and android central. The site you gave me didn't seem to be fascinate specific which makes me uncomfortable. There is much better information here and at android central.

Yes, they didn't mention flashing CWM through odin which is wrong. You must do that before you can start flashing roms (unless there is some super new procedure I know nothing about which is unlikely or would have read about it here).

I flashed Clockwork using ODIN...everything went great. Afterwards I did a cold start and held the vol buttons while hitting the power...came right up for me. I performed a backup right away. Just wanted to thank you all again for the clarifications and help. One thing I noticed....since I did this now my soft keys no longer do haptic feedback on them. I checked the settings and it's enabled but still don't feel anything when I hit them.

Awesome! Glad you got it figured out. Have fun flashing Roms. It's addicting!

Once you flash a DL09 kernel your haptic will come back.

What he said.. When you flashed cwm it installed a di01 kernel on your phone, you'll need to flash a dl09 kernel and you'll get your haptic feedback back.

Or in a notifications folder on the root of the sdcard.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] vunuts:
If you've transferred music onto your phone and stored it on either of the SD cards, or if you have a song or sound file that you want to make into a ringtone or notification, get Ringdroid from the market. It's free and it allows you to cut sections of songs or sound files and set them as whatever you wish. When you finish cutting the sound clip, the app will ask you what you want the tone to be used for and it saves the clip in the appropriate directory. Pretty quick and painless and rather nifty.
