[HD2 General] StarScreamx:
Thanks for the info fred.

Where I can download the 2.14 version?

What is shipped ROM?

What the diffence between shipped ROM vs official ROM.

Sorry for a lot questions. HTC and WinMo is something new to me. Im iPhone user.
[HD2 General] STHNS:
2.14? You mean 3.14?

1) Shipped rom is the default manufacture rom that comes standard on it.

2) No diff between shipped and official rom they are same thing we call them stock rom. Which is supported and maintained by the folks who made the phone.

If you want to upgrade stock rom not sure why you want to do that you can go to Tmobile website and check under wmupgrade or go to HTC website and look under support. I say you forget about WM 6.5 stock rom and go use WM6.5.X EnergyROM base 29XXX its simply superior in every aspect.
[HD2 General] fred_up:
The reason I suggest you flash, for example, the 2.10 ROM is that it will flash the SPL, the main ROM and the RADIO. This will get the phone running fully on an official ROM.

The problem you have can either be modifications to the operating system software or additional software or a hardware problem. By flashing a stock (official) ROM you will have cleared the existing operating system and additional software. Now if the problem is still there then it is very likely that it is due to a hardware problem.

If after flashing the problem is gone, then by all means flash the excellant Energy ROM or flash your desired Android ROM.

If you only flash a custom ROM which does not include the RADIO (which controls all communication interaction and not just the FM Radio) then you are reducing the chances of finding out the problem.

Silly question, have you tried booting the phone up without the SD Card?
[HD2 General] StarScreamx:
After all the problem, freeze, hang up and etc I no longer put any sd card on my htc hd2. I beleive the problem might be with the hardware. But why not we try our best before given up on it.

I had several simple questions.

1. Can radio be downgrade?

2. What radio for? Its same like baseband on iPhone

3. Where I can download 2.10 HTC HD2 US T-Mobile? Search here found nothing
[HD2 General] STHNS:
1) Yes you can downgrade Leo_Radio's long as you use the correct one as you know there is .50 for HD2-US(Leo1024) and .51 HD2-EU(Leo512).

2) Radio is software that controls your phones wireless interfaces such as data, voice, bluetooth, gps, wifi and other power and memory related firmwares. Well never used iOS so can't say what they call it but far as AOSP goes yes we call it baseband.

3) Search for TMoUS 2.10 stock rom and you will find it or do search in this forum as I am sure someone has it archived.

3)
[HD2 General] diximage:
Answer to your question No. 1 - Yes, Radio can be downgraded and upgraded if you install HSPL prior to downgrade/upgrade. FOr the rest you have to search the forum for the answer.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SexyFish:
Hey guys (and maybe girls?),

After about 8-9 of fighting with my phone, I've managed to install android on my HTC HD2. Now, I got this rom/version (I'm newb so.. I'll be more than glad for some explainations) I've found *HERE*.

So, the ptoblems are: SD Card is mounted to read-only mode, I can't take a picture, can't listen to music, run apps and so on.. after about 10min since booting android its becoming unmounted. What eles, thephone is super laggy, I can't run apps and games, and it's driving me crazy because I bought the phone for android and the only good OP worked on it is WM..

So, do I need the regular DESIRE build? or stick with DESIRE HD ones?

If there's a better build that what I've brought there, can I have the thread or download?

Another question, if I'm getting new SD Card (I got only 8GB for now, I need atleast 16GB for all my music, movies and stuff), I just need to copy all the things on the old one and everything will work properly? (after I'll switch a build ofcourse).

(Btw, sorry about grammer mistakes, it's morning over here ;])

THANKS!!:D

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SexyFish:
What class is your SD Card?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
Not sure what the issue with the build is... you should try looking through the build thread. But if you bought this phone for android, you might as well install android to your nand (internal memory) with magldr... it will be much more like a real android phone that way. Just out of curiousity, why didn't you just buy a real android phone if you just wanted android? This phone take a decent amount of work and learning to get it to run as well as a native android phone... but for the price you can get the HD2 for sometimes, it can run android pretty well... but you have to be willing to put the hours in to read the forums and learn what you're doing.

Also, this section is for sd build development, not for question threads. Threads like this should be posted in thread you got the build from, or the Q&A/General section.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrunchEdition:
All good quality class2 sd cards also work with this build without problem!! But you could also try the others with class4 or class6. I think important thing is to test the cards with which cluster size they work best with this build. I have tested formatting different SD cards with 64kb, 32kb and 16kb cluster size. For me till now this build worked best with the 16kb cluster size. With 32kb and 64kb I had Lagg and freezes.

If you want to know how it worked best for me check here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=859817&page=502 post number #5016

Hi.

Great idea with the e-mail :)

But, 2 questions.

Why did you say you bought a german HD7?

Is it because the HD7 hasn't come out in austria yet?

When you typed in your new activation code, did you then use your own LIVE-id, or did you create a fake american one to get it to work?

Can you get marketplace, etc. to work?

Please be advised that I have escalated this issue to the Microsoft Customer and partner advocacy for assistance, they will be contacting you regarding the issue you are having on your Windows mobile 7 phone

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Contacting = Through phone? If yes, i am screwed as i gave a fake US number lol.

EDIT : That email link was sent from South Africa, since I inputted a US address they forward the mail to US MS, they just sent the activation code :D I even gave them fake address, just to look more genuine.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] IM4CHRIST:
Why have so many of you continued to try and lie to Microsoft to get a code? Has anyone tried to just call them and be honest and say:

"Hi I have a HD2 with a WP7 ROM on it and I need an activation code to use the live services. Can I please have one?"

Hmmm...seems like a good idea. It works because that is what I did back in January when the first DFT ROM came out and that is almost exactly what i said. In fact I told them 3 times on during that phone call that my phone was a HD2 with a custom ROM.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hdfanatic:
Come on guys, Microsoft will issue u a activation code, sound believable. I obtained 2, within two days with the same name and real phone number. They were very helpful. All I said is that my hd7 did not update right, and is asking for activation code. The second time (after mango flash), I said that I had to restore and the key is not working again... No problem, new key was issued. And YES the new keys don't always work on mango. Keys issued before June do, the new ones are getting associated with the no do version, and don't work after update. Hope this helps. And for whoever said that you are a coward , yes you are, sorry if it is harsh, but is true LOL ...

PS/ I actually just purchased hd7, typing on it, fully unlocked, with working perfect mango beta. May be is good time to let our hd2's rest for our testing and developing only. Speed and all is so much better on the real thing.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diddl88:
I have a really big problem with my desire:

I have updated nearly every NeoPhyte since Froyo. Worked always without problems.

Yesterday I want to update to NeoPhyte 8.2. I only flashed 8.2 Image but no new radio and diddn't Wipe all. It flashed successful, but restart (HTC Logo) doesn't disappear after restart. I took out the battery after 30 minutes.

After this I had to use USB (recovery-windows.bat) to enter green menu. I did a Wipe Factory reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik. But my desire won't start.

So I tried flash my old image 8.1.4 again with wipe all. But nearly the same result. It hangs not on HTC screen but on this Nexus 4 color animation.

After this I tried to flash newest radio Radio-32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 and NeoPhyte 8.2. Not successful, desire hangs in HTC screen about 30 minutes.

Please can anyone help me? Is my desire dead or is it possible to make it run again?

I alway look for the protective film on the screen to be perfect, I have never had a new phone that isn't. I also look at the accessories and their packaging and if there have been any tamper stickers removed from the box. A friend once bought new N96 from a well known web site that was in actual fact was reconitioned, no protective film on screen and the box had already been opened. But sorry I do not know how to check the phones software.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
Its pretty hard to find it through firmware, because a firmware flash resets almost everything. Even in old Nokia phones you can reset the lifetime counter.

Check the manufactured date of the battery, if its only few months old (i.e Oct or later) then chances are the phone is new. Other than that you have to rely on physical signs, condition of the accessories and box. What about the screen protector ? It comes with a screen protector that has some logos printed on it, make sure its there and no dust particles are trapped underneath (an indication that it has been removed and placed back again). The box also has a seal, but most stores breaks it to check for the contents and put warranty stickers or put SIM cards in. Other than that the the phone usually has a fresh new plastic smell.

Its relatively easy to spot a used phone when you carefully examine it, for example if you can find dust under the battery door, in speaker grills , or see fingerprint smudges etc. The battery is usually shipped half full, if you find it dead or 100% charged that might indicated the phone has been used before (at least for a brief period). Also take a closer look at the charger especially the power pins. These are some of the ways you can check, but none of these are guaranteed ways to make sure.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kms108:
I think you need to enter engineer mode to see some sort of life timer.
