[HD2 Ubuntu Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and General] youngdaddytc:
i would guess there's 2 ways for this to work. 1: from inside android after it's already loaded (like haret) and 2. from the bootloader when you first start your phone up.

i know with a PC, you can have any OS's files on a hard drive, or partition or whatever. but if your bios doesn't know it's there, it wont just go auto looking for it. it will tell you 'operating system not found' or something along those lines. now when you install an OS on a PC it updates that boot menu, or in linux the grub menu which is pretty much the same thing. there's also a program handy in windows called 'easyBCD' and linux has the 'startupmanager' respectively. so it's already been taken care of in those OS's and i gotta think it can't be that hard to get one going for mobile OS's as well.

i would think, it shouldn't be that hard to direct the bootloader at the startup of the phone, to wherever your directory for your phone's OS is located (and similarly for a secondary OS). just a matter of modifying that line so it reads into the correct directory. of course i can't program but it sounds right :-)

First off not to sound rude to anyone but haret builds can boot within magldr but a proper roof.img is needed for magldr and not windows. i dual boot sd builds and nand all the time when i use magldr but im using cLK cause i work at night and dont want to risk the battery dying on me. Also have you try the hd2 toolkit not the one for flashing clk or magldr but the that loads hbl to boot up ubuntu here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1095726 just for the new ones that dont know.:)

Ubuntu with Android

On Ubuntu website, they claim to have Ubuntu working (in near future) on smartphomes supporting ARM. From what I gather, they install Ubuntu but only with Android system. Is anyone working on this? I use windows to sync in with all contacts and calendars, but want to do this with Ubuntu.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bill4d:
In the morning I usually do not even "wake up" my phone until I get to work to set it to silent. Occasionally, when I hit the power button to "wake up," the screen stays black. The light down by the three buttons at the bottom comes on, but the screen will not light up. I have to remove the battery to reboot, and then everything is fine. The battery is plenty charged when this happens. This morning the battery was at 80%.

This problem happened multiple times while my phone was still completely stock. I am running 2.1 now with the 435 build.

Any ideas what might cause this problem?

You can back up pretty much everything with titanium backup (from the market its free). Then just reinstall it after you reflash and restore your backed up data.

Hope that helps!

I have HTC HD2,I was trying to upgrade to Android, I think I made a mistake I installed “MAGLDR113” before upgrading my Radio to version 2.15.50.14. After I installed MAGLDR113 I connected my phone to my computer and the telephone was stuck in boot mode and was never able to see USB connection. Now my computer does not recognize my phone anymore and I can’t flash a new Radio version since I have no connectivity to my computer. I tried several things but all was useless. Can anyone help me telling me how I can have a USB connection to my computer??

Thank you.

do you have tried to start and hold volume button... than connect to usb and simply install a stock rom (for example from your provider) - this must work... if not - you have bigger problem.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] archiesnet:
Answered so many times. turn your phone off then turn it on "while holding volume down.It will then take to bootloader(rainbow screen).It suppose to have a cotulla written above the rainbow screen.Now flash it with a stock rom came from HTC site..No need to sync your phone to your PC..Just flash it..Start all over again..Now you can search before doing somehing with your phone.If that didn't help you. You have a bigger problem..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] muhanad:
Yes I tried this also but it doesn't work.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ClydeB1:
What didn't work? Can you boot into bootloader - ie switch off, press and hold vol down button and switch phone on.

You should then boot into a multi-coloured screen and should see "serial" at the bottom of the screen.Then connect device to usb port (preferably one at back of your pc and a different one that you haven't used before if possible) - let the drivers install if applicable - does "serial" change to "usb"?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] voncrane:

Before this, my HTC HD2 would just hard reset on its own ONCE A DAY! Why was it doing this?

Now it gets stuck on the white HTC loading screen. Wont get passed it. I used to be able to hard reset by doing the volume keys down and reset but NOPE... still wont load past that white screen.

Have you guys tried deleting the drivers using a utility like USBDeview? Try deleting anything that relates to HTC OR HD2, replug the phone in, re-install the drivers.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] taha23:
IDK what USBDeview is.

Im in Safemode so no drivers load up... because it didnt work in Normal mode. Still nothing
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] h.nocturna:
Of course it won't work without drivers. The computer needs drivers to communicate with the phone. In normal mode, unplug the phone, Google the application, download it, open it, click everything that has HTC or HD2 in it and click uninstall. Plug the phone in, let the drivers install themselves again. Try again.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] taha23:
Ok... i rebooted into Normal mode, downloaded the utility, did a search for "HTC" found nothing, did a search for "HD" found nothing. So i am now installing windows mobile center for windows 7 which should have the appropriate drivers.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MrHellas:

I was overlooking the USB Flash option.

If you are still having problems, let your phone turn on(no multi-color screen), select: USB Flash, click the DAF.exe installation file, follow the prompts.

You're done.

I had this problem and I solved it disabling an option in activesync. I can't remember what was exactly the checkbox, but was in "options" and it said something like "allow usb connections" or something like this.

I just disabled it and rebooted the device holding volume down.

Good luck!

Make Sure Phone is not connected to PC

Goto cotrol panel in windows

Uninstall HTC BMP USB Driver

Uninstall HTC Driver Installer

Uninstall HTC Sync

Unisntall Windows Mobile Device Center

Restart the PC

start the phone holding power and vol dn and now connect the phone to PC. should detect and install the drivers and you should be able to see USB on phone screen.

if this does not work

Delete all the USB root HUB but keep as last option in device manager.

PS: This will cause ALL the USB devices to redetect.

So the INC has about 2GIG and 6.45GIG internal space. Is there a reason to use one over the other? Im assuming the smaller section is the SD and larger built in. Seems you would want to use the built in memory.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haraldr Blaatand:
Unless you root and install a custom ROM, most 3rd party media applications (e.g. Winamp, Photoshop) will not be able to see music, pictures, and videos stored on the internal storage.

If you like HTC's music, camera and gallery apps, then you will have no problem. They are specifically written to handle files located in both locations.

[Wildfire General] SammyBoyWonder:
I'm on t-mobile too and i noticed this feature has stopped working (on my desire) even though it has worked in the past. All I can assume is that t-mobile have blocked this service and now only offer it with their (more expensive) web n walk max plan - the same plan you need to have to be able to make skype and voip calls over 3G.

I doubt its a kernel issue because it worked fine when i was on holiday in India where I purchased a 3g sim card with an unlimited data plan.

Update:

Just out of curiosity i tried the wifi hotspot again and to my surprise it now works. I didn't change any of the settings on my laptop or the phone. So i guess the service isnt just available on webnwalk max. I don't know what causes the problem - sorry.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] running_the_dream:
This is the Epic wiki. Scroll down to Odin Stock Flashing and follow those instructions. Under Official Roms (just above Odin Stock Flashing) is the dk28 file. It's titled 'SPH-D700-DK28-8Gb-REL.tar.md5 Stock DK28 (Leaked).' That's what you put in Odin to flash to stock dk28. Scroll down further to Community Roms and you will see the Bonsai4All rom. Once you are on stock dk28, have cwm3 installed, and download the Bonsai rom to the SDcard, you can flash Bonsai through cwm.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdunn1994:
The wiki says I have to "Select the victory_8G_100528.pit on the right in the pit section" on step number 4, do I have to do that to flash to Bonsai, or do I just do what you told me.

When I flashed to stock dk28 , I used the Victory pit along with the SPH-D700-DK28.tar. So, I would do both.

I have used it without victory BUT I was already on dk28. I had a 2.2 rom and I was flashing back to stock dk28.

So, final answer, for the first time going to dk28, I would use both the pit and tar.

On a side note, make sure only the reset time and auto-reboot check boxed are checked. There shoud be three total check boxes. For the first time, only check those. If you install a rom and want to go back to stock dk28 in the future, then only check auto-reboot.

ok, one more question before i begin is, do i backup with clockworkmodrecovery before i flash dk28, or if im correct the flash will delete everything including root, and upgrade the phone to 2.2, so the backup would be irrelevant until b4 i flash the bonasi?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] running_the_dream:
Yes, using flash with ODIN will erase everything including root. So, backup everything before you start. It should backup to your SDcard. When you do the stock flash, root, install cwm3 and flash your 2.2 based rom, you should be able to boot into cwm, go to backup/restore- advanced restore and restore data.

I would install My Backup or something similar before attempting though. Just in case cwm doesn't keep your backup after the flash. It's worked for me in the past. After backup, you can also move the backup file to your computer's hard drive for safekeeping. It's in the root of the sd folder under Clockwork recovery.
