[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ng-gdata:
So I have already been searching the forums for my problem, but I could not find a solution (taking into account the amount of posts about WP7/Android dual booting it is, however, possible that I missed the one containing the solution for my problem. So please forgive me for creating a new thread then ;)).

I finally bought a 16GB SD for my HD2 and partitioned it correctly. Both WP7 and Android work as they are supposed to be, BUT Android won't recognize the 8GB SD partition it is stored on. So I can only access the 1GB linux filesystem of my ROM build and it won't let me take photos or accept bluetooth transmission. The Panasonic formater does solve the problem, but then deletes the WP7 partition. So is there a way to format my Android partition so that it will be recognized by Android without destroying the WP7 partition?

Thanks in advance for all answers!

USB Mass Storage is not working after dual boot wp7 and android when i am booting android 'Cope's SD HD2 Gingerbread'.

i have used this method to partition sd card to run wp7 and android from same sd card

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-cUdB4_5f4.

There is no problems during using wp7 but the USB Mass Storage is not worked during using android. HD2 can't read the SD card. the SD card is unavailable.

Can it be solved??? Anyone can help me??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Since you're running Android from your SD card, this shouldn't really come as a surprise. Some SD ROMs have semi-USB mass storage, but still this often doesn't work as desired. I advise to either use WiFi file transferring, or booting WP7 when USB storage is required.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ele1216:
it is able to find data in sd card by using file manager but the gallery is not worked. It can't show the video and picture which are placed in sd card .
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
It may be because the SD card is partitioned, as you mentioned. I never had a problem connecting to the phone as a USB drive when I used SD cards.

It may also be a faulty build. With it being a gingerbread build, I think it may be that as I couldn't connect USB mass storage using gingerbread, and that was a NAND build!

Do you have another SD card you could try the same build with?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Okay, that's another story. Mass USB storage refers to using your computer to transfer files on your SD card.

It really seems like something went wrong with the partitioning, you probably made a mistake somewhere in the process (or the video is wrong, in which case there would be a lot of complaints, check that first). Format your SD card and try again!

Edit: John, he's not really referring to USB mass storage. Android just can't mount his SD card, which probably means the partitioning (which is different on WP7) is f*ed up?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
This problem and the solution is stated many times in the sticky thread about partitioning the sd card in the sd dev section. You have to use minitool partition manager and change the wp7 partition from logical to primary. That will solve the problem of android not mounting the sd card. Takes about 2 minute. I'll even attach minitool for you.

Hi guys since i wanna port all graphic in my phone to Gingerbread style. I need to ask you for some help.

Many of this icons is placed in framework and I got them. But I need some more I mean: clock aborted, messages sms/mss, message problem, market updates, installed apps, player, mail client (default one) you know all statusbar icons beyond icons from framework like: gmail, signal, battery...

Would be just awesome if icons could be shared from mdpi device.

I can extract icons from app, so I also would be grateful for share apk files :)

[Nexus S General] tsalate:
Try flashing the stock nandroid zip and start the whole rooting process over that's in the guide
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
That will wipe all the data off your phone, of course. Make sure you have a backup of your apps and data.

I don't really understand what state your phone is in. If you haven't done anything like re-do the oem unlock, you should just be able to flash/boot to Clockwork Recovery and then flash the superuser zip again. Try this method.
[Nexus S General] MarkVis:
That happened to me too when i updated to 2.3.2. What I did is use the superboot for 2.3.2. Its in the android development section. Just look for it. :-)

just installed wp7 on my hd2 and after the start up my phone keeps searching for the network. have tried automatic network selection and tap to select but no luck. am using 2.15 radio. would appreciate any help.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] trent6gol:
goto your settings, scroll to cellular, then down to add apn, in the apn box type epc.tmobile.com and leave the rest blank.

this works with tmobile us
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sameerfarooqi:
isn't that supposed to be only for the data connection? even without entering the apn the phone should be able to find the network for just making voice calls. so mine seems to be a different problem. the phone is simply unable to catch any signals.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] trent6gol:
from my understanding of the whole cell phone fiasco is the sim card has everything the phone needs to connect your providers tower and also tells your phone what services you have voice, data, etc etc, so it should setup voice automatically. i would try searching for the program (htc connection setup) they use to install the xml files it also sets your phone with the provider.

good luck.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Silberpfeil3110:
Only search at the internet for your apn settings, enter them and voila you can use your data connection, nothing more nothing less and done in a minute. HTC Connection Setup don't work well but you have to use it later if you want to change phone type to HD7 for the Marketplace ^^)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] trent6gol:
yeah we covered that part, the concern is that the phone is/was not connecting to the towers
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Silberpfeil3110:
Maybe check out other Radio ROM. 2.15 should work well, but uses more battery.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sameerfarooqi:
switched back to winmo 6.5 for a while and the same radio worked fine (caught the signal etc.). Just now again tried to flash wp7 using 2 different radios, that is 2.12 and 2.14. Have already tried 2.15 with my first attempt, but the problem just remains the same.... 'no network found'. any thoughts? have even tried putting in the apn too. no luck

sim lock...???

After trying different radios by flashing and re-flashing, I've noticed something I should mention. My phone dialer shows a sim icon with a lock on the top left of the screen. Does that shed a new light on things?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] salmanjavaid:
sim lock ???

hey sameer... I have the very same issue with my HTC HD2. It is unlocked and I am facing the very same issue that you are when I revert to WinMo 6.5 everything works fine with the same radio. I've tried almost every radio now and have no luck. However, the funny thing is that I do see the sim with a lock when I go to my dialer. I suspect the OS is SIM Locked, however, when in WinMo 6.5 every Sim Card is recognized and works properly :(

Any luck with the issue yet??

Let me know of your thoughts... btw I'm on Ufone's Network.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sameerfarooqi:
It's the sim card!

Problem solved for me and hopefully for salmanjavaid too!

I learnt it the harder way though, by which I mean that I spent money to buy an HD7 and after inserting my sim in my brand new HD7..... no signal again! oooops! Only then it occurred to me to try some other sim cards. My network is also Ufone here in Pakistan. So first I tried a Prepaid Ufone sim (the one with white and orange colour and 64K printed on the back)...and Lo and Behold my hd7 gets the signal and network settings and data connection works fine too! Other operators' sim cards like Telenor, Warid and Mobilink worked fine too. But when I insert the sim card which is in my use back again....no signals again! This sim card is a different version, perhaps not 64K and plain black color on the back.

A call to my Personal Customer Service Executive assigned by Ufone sets the next course of action. He'll bring a replacement sim card for me, when I get back home.

My suggestion to salmanjavaid: try other sim cards first. If they work then get a replacement sim card.

Hope it solves your problem too.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] salmanjavaid:
id give this a shot. I'm on vacations in Pakistan and have my Sim Card from O2. I will give it a shot tonight :) Thanks for the suggestion.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shutdown:
i'm quite happily running Android from my SD card. Thinking about going down the NAND road

but the question is...is it worth it? Will i notice a big change or should i just stay as it is?

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
No, you will most likely not.

I still recommend doing it if you don't use WinMo, because there sure are advantages but don't expect miracles.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
Personally, I've found battery life better with all the NAND builds I've tried - probably about 50% better. I assume this is because it takes more power to read/write to/from the SD card all the time.

This is obviously just my personal experience though.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Eelkede:
Well, you will get some better battery life, as well it will be smoother.

If you don't use WinMo, I'd recommend it.

Just my personal experience.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tzic:
Battery life simply cannot be compared to SD versions. It's much better in nand. Also file transfer works as it should.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
You can also connect to the phone in debugging mode, with NAND, which I never could using SD builds.

Not much of a deal to most people, but for anyone interested in developing for Android it's a BIG deal!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Some people have had drastic improvements because they used 'bad' SD cards (as in badly compatible with Android, not 'bad' in se). If you compare the battery life of an SD build with a proper card, NAND really doesn't give much more juice, simply because the major part of battery consumption is due to hardware stuff such as screen, CPU, ...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] agormog:
The biggest difference for me is battery life aswell, as others have already stated.

I get 2-4mA in standby on most builds
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
Like I said to OP, it was just my personal experience. I was using a SanDisk 8GB Class 6 card that I've had 0 issues with, so I could only put the battery life difference down to r/w times. It's apparent in other things as well, like when you bring up the application list in settings. It used to take a good 5-10 seconds to get the icons for all the apps, but now it's less than a second.

It's only little things like that that I really notice. Overall performance doesn't seem much better.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Hey nothing personal man, I was just informing you why you experienced this drastic improvement. Like I said, with a bad card I didn't mean bad as in not good, but just not well compatible with Android on SD - no one really had an explanation as to why certain cards performed better than others, and there wasn't a predictable pattern either. The most expensive cards could very well be the worst compatible.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
This is true... I just went back to using SD builds because I'm dual-booting with wp7, and battery life on my sd builds are pretty much the same for me. I get as low as 3ma on standby with my jdms and hd2one sd builds. I'm using a class 2 sandisk, which seems to have the best random access speed out of all the sd cards I tested, and has a very low power consumption. For anyone buying a new card to run wp7 or to run android off of, I would definitely suggest a class 2 sandisk over any other class or brand of card. Quality class 2 cards generally have better battery life and better random access speeds (which is what matters the most for running an OS off the card) than higher class cards, which are made to have higher sequential write speeds.

Will they replace that?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
By "security unlock" if u mean network unlock, once u flash back to stock it should get reset again.

I unlocked mine on stock, n then when I loaded stock back when changing roms, i found it got locked again. So shouldn't be an issue.

And well, nothing can be done abt the screen protector.

Believe, I've the 4th captivate after 3 replacements for sleep death issue.

Thanks Smith. When u get ur replacement I would recommend u wait for 3-4 days, confirm it does not have sleep death or charge death issues, and then apply screen protector.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Like the dood said - Flash back to stock.. but I would test to see if it keeps happening. If you have a Build 1008 phone - it seems to be more prevalent on that build then others.

Mine happens when the phone is fully charged especially. I would test that to see if you can get it to repeat or AT&T will just give you a replacement battery instead of a refurbed phone.

You can download Quick Office from ATT Market. It's not needed for returning it back to AT&T. All of the base bloatware is returned to the phone after you Odin it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:

Don't think too much. Format the internal SD, and revert to stock and return in. One click odin to stock gets it close to how AT&T gave u the phone. A couple optional apps missing shouldn't matter.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekie86:
Great, thanks. That is all I needed to hear. Hopefully returning it today. Then as long as I can use the three-button mode to get into download and recovery, I think I'm going to try flashing my first ROM bundle.

So I exchanged my phone tonight. They gave me a 1007 build, however my IMEI ends in 0652. The guy at AT&T told me that Samsung had replaced the bad component causing the shutdown problem and was re-issuing old phones. They apparently don't change the IMEI. I'll see what happens. If it starts shutting down again, I'm back in the store for a new one.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You don't need to downgrade to get root and subsequently start flashing custom ROM's. As a matter of fact, there's a guide on the first page of this forum that will tell you how.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dedraks:
All you need to install custom roms on your phone is:

1) ROOT with universalandroot

2) Install Custom Recovery

3) Optional (install ENG SPL)

4) Install Radio/SPL version required by the ROM you are about to install

5) Flash the ROM in recovery
