[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Barmalei:
While WP7 appears to be a major upgrade for HD2 from the entertainment point of view (720p recording alone is worth the trouble), for the professional user it's a step back, unfortunately, so I am not in a hurry to give up Windows Mobile It has nothing to do with the amazing work done by DFT and others, but with WP7 itself.

Copy and paste is not used that often, but at times could be vital for heavy e-mail and Office users. But at least Microsoft is working on that. Much more important is the lack of

internet tethering support

- a hugely underestimated feature. With original HD2 and an app like Wi-Fi Router I have a hotspot with me anywhere at any time, but with WP7 Microsoft is totally against it, possibly under pressure from the carriers.

Lack of file manager that we are used to seeing is an annoyance, but not a game changer. I am also not convinced the WP7 keyboard is nearly as good as the original HD2 one, and the apparent lack of foreign language keyboard support is also a concern.

Frankly, I am surprised not many people raise these issues, with Windows Mobile being, in my opinion, the best platform for business user, giving us a PC-like experience. But the trend appears to be dumbing down the smartphones (meaning heavy bias towards entertainment) to get the all-important market share. My hope is that Microsoft develops a special business-user version of WP7with all those issues covered.

In the meantime I would greatly appreciate an effort by developers to solve at least one of these problems - INTERNET TETHERING, either by Wi-Fi or USB. The solutions I've seen so far don't appear to be workable, but we are grateful for all your efforts.

And, finally, one question that is probably easy to answer. Is it possible, after trying out WP7 on HD2, to go back to the original ROM (T-Mobile USA)? If yes, can someone please point me to the clear directions on that?

Thank you!

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Gustopher:
I'm sure I saw tethering on a MS to do list and get the impression it's less about being unwilling to do it an more about being unable, for now.

File Manager - there is one, TouchXplorer. More relevant is the difficulty in getting files on there - it can be done, but it's a faff.

I wouldn't argue that WP7 is more aimed at those who feel the need to share every sentient thought with 'friends' they don't even know on FacePage or Twaddle, but the Office tools are actually very good and with SkyDrive integration there are potentially some very useful ways of working.

The keyboard? Don'y like it especially but it's not much worse than the original. Having a Swype variant would be far better.

One thing not mentioned is the fact that WP7 is more stable and performs better than WM6.5.5.

There are a bunch of threads around on backing out WP7, a search should find something quite quickly but it's pretty straightforward.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Barmalei:
Thanks a lot, Gustopher, for a detailed response! Good points.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hyellow:
bussinesmen always carry a notebook with them for heavy documents editing.

bussinesmen should have a corporate laptop with corporate 3g/umts dongle.

Real bussinesmen should have an assistent to do all their work.

However, the email client on WP7 is the best of all other platforms. Real full support for multiple folder syncing. Reading email is like reading a letter on a paper because of the clean and neat look. Just too bad it doesn't shows HTML.

There is always room for improvement and it'll get all the features eventually.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TheOnly1:
Actually most probs including Tethering can be solved with hacks or workarounds. For me the biggest annoyance is that mail forwarding was left out for some unknown reason. I forward a lot of mails from my phone and this really sucks big time :(

Also Office Mobile is less functional than it used to be on WM 6.5. Where is find and replace :confused:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Abdul9.:
To be candid i love the keyboard and the smoothness of the system but everything else is half done. How i wish i could just combine the features of different os. If i could then I'll combine the functionality of winsmob 6.5 with the keyboard and smoothness of wp7 and then take the apps from android. Thats would be the almost perfect os of all times. But hey i guess i'm just a dreamer.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Barmalei:
Thanks for your responses. Hyellow, nowadays when they say "business user" (or "business traveler", etc), in America, they don't actually mean important businessmen, just people who use something for work - I guess I should've been more specific. Sometimes I carry a notebook, sometimes not, and I often need to receive and/or send emails with attached Word documents at different times of day and night. And I didn't even need a dongle with a great Wi-Fi sharing tool that I could also use to share internet with others.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] meptik:
It's actually mentioned in the first post of the LEO70 ROM thread. Basically, to return to WM6.5, you just flash a ROM as you would normally do.

If you want to return to a TMOUS stock ROM, this would be how:

1) Get the stock ROM you want to flash

2) Shut down your HD2

3) Switch on your HD2 while holding the volume down key to enter bootloader

4) [Optional] Clean up NAND using task29

5) Flash your stock ROM, 2 options:

a) To remove HSPL, flash from MicroSD card

b) To keep HSPL, flash over USB using ROM Update Utility (RUU)

If you choose to remove HSPL, be careful to use an original ROM for your region/provider.

Thanks a lot for detailed instructions, meptik! I haven't flashed a ROM for a long time, so this is extremely helpful.

I also wonder if anyone knows an answer to this question:

If I take a stock U.S. T-Mobile-locked HD2 and run WP7 on it, does the phone become UNLOCKED so it can be used on any GSM carrier, including major European networks?

Solution for problems with SD cards and/or random reboots

Many people are experiencing problems with SD cards and/or random reboots, and I think I solved mine (I am rather a newbie), so here is my report.

Few days ago I installed WP7 (thanks a lot, DFT guys) on my U.S. T-mobile HD2 with its original 16 GB class 2 micro SD card, using radio 2.10.50.08.2.

Installation went very well, the phone worked very smoothly and very fast, except it started freezing and randomly rebooting. Hard resets didn't help. Then I removed SD card and reset the phone - it worked very well and fast and did not have any reboots.

I tried reformatting the SD card to Fat32 (using free software SDformatter - it fully clears the card after WP7 use and removes partitions, make sure you put Format Size Adjustment "ON" in Options) and reset the phone with the card. It did not help, the reboots were the same as before.

So I decided that the 16 GB card wasn't good for WP7 and bought a PNY 4 GB class 4 card for $10 at Staples. I reset the phone with this new card inside. At first everything worked very slowly, but at least the reboots completely disappeared. In few hours everything became fast, except for certain things, like it would take 15-30 seconds for the camera to reset after shooting a 1 min video.

Finally, I decided to try something else. I reflashed radio to 2.15.50.14 with the original 16 GB card (reformatted again), and everything seems to work very well -it's fast, and there has been no reboots so far in few hours. The battery also seems to drain with a normal pace.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futur1sm:
I have been running the original sense ROM on my DHD downgraded from the 1.72 it came with to 1.32 to freeze bloatware and get rid of the annoying SMS notification bug. Was working great until I tried a new radio to see if I could improve my patchy Vodafone UK 3G sig.al at home. I tried the latest stable radio from Cingular and found 3G and GPS was good but wifi was suddenly terrible! Right next to router and only getting 'fair' signal. Thought I'd return to original 1.32 radio using the one in the radio thread but this has made no difference. Wifi signal is now poor upstairs with only my network visible whereas I was getting Excellent with multiple networks nearby showing. Is this a radio problem or settings? I never had best wifi performance ticked in settings. If it is a radio problem does anybody know how to return to the stock one that came with my DHD - UK unlocked used on Vodafone UK network. Any help appreciated greatfully!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remuspider:
Apparently these radios, unless WWE, are designed for a specific area. If you're not in the area you will notice some downgrading in WiFi functionality. Try a WWE radio and see how it goes.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pavlos83:
shut down and restart your router and try again the wi-fi. that work for me the first time.

or you can boot into recovery and do a Factory re-set
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futur1sm:
Have tried most of the radios in the thread over in Desire HD development now with pretty similar results, even tried the UK specific test radio listed there. :( Currently on Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2.

Have tried a reboot of router also, but that did little. I used to be able to see 4-5 nearby networks also but can only barely see one now.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futur1sm:
Hi, would just like to report back to say I think I've fixed it. Is the wifi antenna connector on the battery cover like the network antenna is on the sim card cover?

Was at work and getting a really poor signal to the ADSL line here for external devices, whereas last week had nearly a full signal (2 rooms away). Just removed the sim and battery cover with the phone on so I could soft reset it in the process, cleaned the gold contacts and put back together and WiFi seems to be working great again. :eek::D

Will report back later when I've had chance to test it at home but seems it was maybe a Darwin moment and I hadn't put the battery cover back on properly or the contacts were dirty?

[Droid X General] nuke072786:
I have many different pictures that I would like to view on my Droid X similar to how they would be viewed in thumbnail view in Windows. For example, on my droid I have the following folders on my SD card.

\2011

\2011\Birthday Pictures

\2011\Football Games

\2010

\2010\Christmas

\2010\Vacation Photos

\2009

You get the idea. I would like to view these folders as albums, but in order of hierarchy. If I open "2011" I would see any photos in that folder, but then could select "Football Games" and then view those as thumbnails. So far every android app I have used takes all of my folders, turns each one into an album, and throws them all together on the same page, which is cumbersome if you have a lot of pictures organized into many folders.

Any suggestions?
[Droid X General] jonwgee:
Are you just wanting to view them as thumbnails, or in a fancier format?

If you just want to quickly scroll through thumbnails, just use your file manager app, whether it be root explorer, stock file manager, or one of the many others available in the market
[Droid X General] nuke072786:
Yeah, I tried that and it wasn't very good (using Astro). I was hoping for something a little fancier, but no more features than say QuickPic offers.

[G Tablet General] raggededge:
WTF!! Anyone know hot to get the tablet to connect to a network with SSID hidden. Tried 3 routers, no deal. Running vegan 5.1, would swith back to TNT if necessary.

Thanks.
[G Tablet General] aaltieri:
I had a similar issue. I have two routers: The westell, it connected to no worries. The Cisco/Linksys I couldn't connect to to save my life. As soon as I let the ssid broadcast, it picked it up and connected. I can even re-hide it again, and it will connect.

I've tried a few ROM's on my Incredible, and the same thing. It connects to the Westell, no worries. But I have to broadcast the SSID for the phone to connect to the Linksys. It turns out Android is somewhat well-known for this. and I believe it to be a system issue, not specific to any ROM or branch.

In reality though, NOT broadcasting the SSID doesn't add much in the way of privacy. A script-kiddie with a WinMo 5 fone can find and connect to them. I used to use my Wizzie to find and connect to WiFi networks when I traveled. Just make sure you are using a secure connection like WPA2 or something.
[G Tablet General] Neverland1:
Tell me about it it drives me insane!!! I'm using a dlink dsl-2740b with/ without MAC filter and i can't get it to find my hidden SSID.

did the kernel mod 2.6.32.28 - from pershoot still no go. Anyone else found a fix?
[G Tablet General] TeutonicWolf:
I'm running an old Linksys WRT54v1.1 with DD-WRT installed...

Non-Broadcast SSID, MAC Filtering, WPA2 -- no issues...

Worked for me right away....on all ROMs (so far) -- Stock, TnTLite, & Vegan...My phone has Cyanogenmod so I'd assume it will work as well...

I'd highly recommend DD-WRT as a new firmware for your Cisco/Linksys if it is a supported model...
[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
I know it's totally not the point of this post but, exactly.

It in fact creates more problems than it does any type of good on any level at all because it makes it more trouble for you, the user to connect to your own network. Some chipsets have issues connecting to hidden SSIDs as well, as shows with the Tablet. Phones can have the problem too. Computers less so just because of the detailed configurations of the software.

You don't even have to be a script kiddie or hacker, there are easily downloaded, well known tools that show hidden SSIDs, along with mac addresses of any and all routers and also which sniff wifi signals. So pretty much anyone that knows more than how to check emails can get into your network if they need/want to and you're not using WEP. WEP is of course only a step up and still simple to get into with just that much more effort (not much, at all).

In these days and times in terms of privacy, if you're not at the very least using WPA with AES then just go ahead and leave it open.
