[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] clauswl:
There was obviously a serious error with one of my phones. I tried everything, task 29, etc. The phone just would not take wph7 completely, but i knew for a fact that the sd card is compatible, but i tried to install wp7 without a sd card. The phone would never get past the first wph screen (after the dft splash screen). Sometimes the phone would not even get to the windows "getting started" screen, sometimes magldr would even hang up, or the pc could not even initialize the partitioning process to install wp7 (still hung at the "USB Flasher mode" prompt). I was ready to send the phone to HTC since I thought there was a problem with the internal memeory.

I then decided to start from scratch: restore the phone to stock(flashed stock rom from sd card, spl2.080000), reset the device once, and then loaded magldr while the phone was synced to my computer(not tri collered screen), then immediately flashed wp7 to the phone.

All is well now.

I think task 29 maybe did not errase the internal memory completely.

Alsu, Radio 2.12.xx.xx works wonderful, and it also gave me a huge improvement in battery life!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] FatTrousers:
No offence but exactly what is the point of this post? And seriously, you were having trouble FLASHING WP7 to your HD2 so considered sending it back to HTC? Dude they would just laugh in your face, flashing voids your warranty.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] elyl:
Why label the thread "NAND Issue" as well, when by your own admission you have no issue at all? Baffling.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] clauswl:
This was supposed to be helpful for other people, I have plenty of experience with flashing numerous HTC devices, and own several HD2's. This one had serious trouble taking on wp7, so logically tere was some issue with the internal memory. Flashing the HD2 the other conventional ways (as I flashed the other HD2's) did not work, the phone typicaly rebooted after the DFT splash screen before entering windows, which was indicating obviously a memory issue (independent from the SD card).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] clauswl:
For anyonewith issues, MAGLDR 1.13 fixed all of the issues I had. It also got rid of random reboots and non boots of wp7.

[Desire HD General] johns159:
As i understood it...

There are two navigation options as standard, one was free and the other was premium service which required data connection????
[Desire HD General] DeathJester:
Google Navigation is free (data dependant). HTC Premium Navigation is free for 30 days, then subscription based. Also data dependant.

The only phone-based SatNav software i've used is ALK CoPilot Live 8 on WinMob. I couldn't fault it. Saying that, however, I use Google Navigation now, and can't fault that either (apart from when I lose data connection :p)
[Desire HD General] atifhasan86:
you can use Motonav, its an offline navigation software too. great coverage in india.

Can some kind soul help me out here? I recently installed a new rom from docs kitchen and now some apps are not appearing in the market. I'm trying to find lcd density changer app. The free one is included in the custom rom but I want the paid version and the link in the app opens the market only for it to tell me that the app can't be found. Anyone else had this problem before? If so how was it fixed?

[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
Hope i dont get banned for this. Ok here is my set up:

T-Mobile tab w/Vibrant Sim

Bronken IMEI (to go online w/current Vibrant Sim)

Roto's Modem Switch

Roto's JME v4

So I am able to use Voice+Edge and go online at the same time but I have noticed something strange, sometimes I get the 'G' symbol and sometimes with 3 bars no less. Of course when I try to go online nothing happens and then it goes back to Edge and everything works as normal.

I am wondering if anyone with this setup has encountered this?

Why would the tab be trying to connect to 'G' while on Voice+Edge when supposedly we are not able to, could this be a clue?
[Galaxy Tab General] bpt888:
I believe the 'G' stands for GSM (2G) and EDGE is the only available data network available with the GSM bands. Using the modem switcher mod, you can only get EDGE for data and 2G voice using the GSM bands.

'H' is for HSPA (3G) and is faster. As for 4G I have no clue.

Hope that helps.
[Galaxy Tab General] gerrylum:
Believe the G stands for GPRS actually.
[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
So nothing to do with maybe being able to get Voice+3G :-/. Well guess we'll have to keep waiting until someone works that out then the T-Mobile tab will be complete.
[Galaxy Tab General] bpt888:
I stand corrected. Lol. GPRS is even slower than EDGE. He must be loosing signal quality, that's the only time it would use GPRS, as a last resort. Specially if he can get EDGE.
[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
It does only happen when I'm at home so you are right.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm8:
Just wondering what's the difference with 1.32 and 1.72 rom.

I'm currently on the stock 1.32 rom and wanted to upgrade but is it worth going through all the hassle?

Is there any improvement in power consumption etc?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
Is it actually still available? I thought HTC had pulled the update due to the issues with it?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm8:
I didn't know that. What issues did it have?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
it might be 1.75 that was pulled, as it was having issues with SD cards (i am sure I read this somewhere), but my understanding is that the biggest change between 1.72/1.75 and 1.32 is the fixing of the root exploit thus making them currently unrootable, the newest radio helps with battery life but that can be flashed seperately (if you have S-OFF) from here
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nm8:
There's a 1.72 WWE rom in the forum, is this any better than the 1.32 ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lsseah:
You should get your DHD rooted, radio S-off and bump it up to the Revolution HD Rom.

Believe me, it's way better than the 1.32 version; battery life is much much better too.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spaghetti-XRY:
I agree ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shithead:
Yeah I read that everywhere. I have an HTC Desire HD with 1.39 as stock and if I check for an update, it says there's a new version 1.75.

So far I'm gonna wait till HTC ups a new one or just flashing to a custom rom :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
Greets All,

I have a couple of quick questions, the first one will probably be easy to answer, but some roms have 4 desktops you can finger swipe or use the home key to navigate to, other roms have 7, is there a way to add more then 7?

Second question, I asked this thru PM but never got an answer so now I'll ask here. As we all have been searching for the bluetooth mac address fix that doesnt put a generic Mac, I went on the hunt and found so far only 1 Kernel that actually has either a unique address or the actual address, and no answer as to why the only one I found is a kernel that works on an SDcard version of android.

I am of course not talking about gingerbread since I am not using that, but 2.2.1, I tried to figure out endlessly for days and weeks, but I am not a programmer, but I would think it wouldnt been that difficult to make it work on nand roms or zip roms. Obviously I tired to take the kernel and push it into the rom I use which is a zip DesireHD build, and it just hung at the boot screen, I tried it with other roms and the same problem. Someone said that SDCard kernels are different then nand and zip roms and thats why it hung.

But I guess the question is if the solution is in the kernel and obviously credit to the kernel dev, why cant it be implimented to our current roms? Now if there is already a fix for this without having to manually enter it, then please point me to that thread, cause all the ones that pop up either have no replies or looking for the same thing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
No idea for the BT thing, but the amount of homescreens simply depends on your home app. I believe both LauncherPro and ADW Launcher (both free on market) support more than 7 screens, not sure on either of them though.

You should however seriously reconsider if you really need more than 7 homescreens. If you need them for shortcuts to apps: why? There's no use transferring everything to your homescreen when you can just as easily scroll through the app drawer. Create a few strategic folders if you need some more structure.

If you want all these homescreens for widgets, take into account that this is bad for both performance and battery life. 7 is already quite a lot, crossing that barrier doesn't seem like a wise decision to me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
Well I wasnt looking for go crazy with the screens :D I was merely talking maybe 2 more, and not for shortcut to apps, thats what we got the app drawer for. I was talking more like (just an example):

1- Home screen

2- Email

3- SMS

4- Weather

5- Facebook

6- Social Hub

7- Shortcuts/widgets

8- Calendar

9- Music

I can't seem to play any .mp4 video file on my D2 without receiving the "Sorry, this video cannot be played" error. I did not actually attempt to play .mp4 files prior to flashing the 2.3.20 sbf, but I came across the following post on MyDroidWorld which would imply that the sbf file itself is the root of the problem:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bballcat03:
I've been reading up on a couple threads, but would like to get some more information...

what are your opinions on the MT4G vs the Samsung Vibrant? Anyone gone from one to the other?

I just got rid of my iphone 3G that I've had for over 2 years...I had a free upgrade from T-Mobile so I tried out the MT4G. I took it back the next day because the battery life SUCKED! And that's being polite about it. It didn't even last me all day, and I was in either edge or no service all day...I never went into a 4G or 3G area.

I now am using a BB 9780, but am wondering, was I too harsh on the MT4G? Should I give it more time? It's coming down to the Vibrant or the MT4G. Everywhere I'm reading, the only con is the battery life...it seems to be a consensus that HTC botched that part of the phone.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Since there is nothing wrong with the MT4G's battery life, that would be why. Constantly searching for service uses a ton of battery...certainly more than being on 3G/4G consistently all day.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bballcat03:
Sorry, I'll be more clear. I was in service at my house, and then I went into the boonies to watch a basketball game and lost service for 3 hours (switched to airplane mode the entire time). I was never flipping back and forth...I had service, lost service, had service. That's it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Yeah I gotcha. I'm saying that's why your battery life seemed so bad.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bballcat03:
How though? If I used the phone in edge, put it in airplane mode, and then turned off airplane mode and was back in edge...how would that eat battery life? That makes zero sense to me. My iphone did just fine in edge/airplane mode
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
I have had no battery issues similar to yours. When I was still traveling frequently, the phone was actually able to make it a 6-7hr car drive through the boonies in/out of signal searching for service the entire time and still above 50% battery.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cybereclipse:
I came from an iPhone 4 and I absolutely love my MYT4G...i had some battery issues (would last me almost the full day) so I downloaded juicedefender and told it to connect to the internet every 15m to download data. I unplugged my phone at 9 this morning and I still have 33 percent remaining as of now.

Don't get a vibrant. The myTouch 4G is one of the best android phones out on the market right now and everyone who has a vibrant ends of regretting it.. GPS issues, etc.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bballcat03:
Do either of your live in 4G areas? If so, does that eat it much? How do you like the 4G speeds? I had my iphone stolen once, and replaced it with a BB Curve 3G, and the 3G ate up that batteries life, so much that I'd switch off to EDGE before getting frustrated and buying another iPhone off craigslist.

My only concern is I need a phone that will last all day...between class/practice/tutoring, etc...I don't always have time to get back to my dorm to charge my phone, I'm running around all day. One of the perks of the iPhone was it lasted me all day, though again that was on edge all day.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cybereclipse:
My parent's house is in a 4G area and I don't notice any battery use change whatsoever. I know what you mean about the iPhone...my iP4 lasted all day and still had like 60% battery life at the end, but all my friends who had iP4's on AT&T with 3G all had like 20ish percent. If you use Juicedefender like I do, I guarantee that your MYT4G will last the entire day...You might also want to invest in a backup battery from Target that you can use to plug into your phone when it starts getting low :D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bballcat03:
Thanks. I honestly wish I coulda stayed with the iphone, but ios4.3 and after will not include updates for the 3G, they are getting fazed out. And I have a free upgrade, so I thought I'd try something else.

Is rooting worth it on the MT, if that applies to yours? I JB all my other iPhone's, so curious to see what it'd be like on another device.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Yes, I do live in a 4G area. My phone IS my radio in the car with Pandora on my commute, and if I'm out and about with the wife (lol shopping, sigh...) also my entertainment. About the only time I perceptibly notice battery drain is playing 3D games for an extended period of time, but for just SMS/Email/Web it doesn't seem to noticeably drain.

Rooting is certainly worth it even if the only thing you do is install AdFree -- no more wasting bandwidth and battery downloading ads that you probably don't want to see anyhow ;). Also, root while you can, if just for future use -- HTC has started blocking one of the existing methods on newer models being shipped.

As for 4G speed:

That was tested at my son's school, about 1.4mi from my house. Just ignore distance to the test server, it is wrong.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bballcat03:
Saint Louis huh, I was raised for a couple years just across from STL in Illinois.

Do they make an adapter for the MT so you can play it through your radio, or are you just using a universal one?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
As for which phone is better that is personal choice. I have a vibrant and my wife has a mytouch. I personally like my vibrant better but that's just me. As for the battery life these phones are expected to use a hella amounts of juice because they are mini pcs. I noticed my screen takes most of the battery. After a proper battery recondition I can easily get about 17 hours out of a single charge. If you are looking at the vibrant wait for the vibrant 4g that's gonna drop next month.

Oh and to play the music through car speakers any fm transmitter will do, just know if you live in a heavily populated are the reception will be ****ty. I had to remove my antenna to make out work half way decent.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Yes, I actually live right across the river in IL, too :)

I use the line-in jack to my car directly into the headphone jack on the phone, runs through AUX on my car stereo. Sounds great! Also any calls I receive broadcast through the car speakers and the phone automatically goes to speaker phone mode to pick up my voice, then resumes playing my music right where it left off when the call is finished.

My g-friend has the mt4g and loves it. I changged the keyboard for her cause we both hated the stock one.

If im not mistaken iced glacier is a rom u can flash to it. I assume u know about flashing roms and what they do. U just have to read about the rom. Glacier is htc's name for the mt4g

Edit: and being able to remove bloatware. Also good for space/battery issues.
