Last night I tried to send some pics from my SE c905 to my WP7-powered HD2 and failed... The two devices paired but in HD2 my c905 stayed "not connected" and there was no way to make it connect :( Anyone with same problems?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] carlonchete:
i think you cant transfer any pic or file to any wp 7.5 device by bluetooth.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] iKilla:
I current use T-Mobile 4G internet Plan and my phone is 4G will it make it faster??

And can someone test Rom 1.23b1 video quality online such as for YouTube v1.22 is laggy even with WiFi, I don't wanna take a chance losing the data, if 1.23 is unstable or have the same video quality.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] gorkem:
There is nothing like HTC HD2 4G so, your phone is probably not an HD2 or not 4G. If you don't want to loose your phone by upgrading with an uncompatible rom, I think it is better to check the phone first. :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] kydkylin123:
Will there be a updatable Mango?

The ROM is great.

The only problem is it can't be updated with .cab.

Is there any plan for a updatable one?

BTW, 7740 has come. So could there be an updatable 7740 Mango?

Thanks for your great work!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] WizardBGR:
+1 to that!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] LENINred:
who may to write me tutorial how install this rom?(last v1.23b1)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] onverbe:
Sorry for the newby question but I agree with LENINred. Is there a 'how to' thread somewhere on flashing this (or general) ROM. I have searched this and other threads and have not foudn one.

I've been following this thread for some while now and am ready to take the leap from wm6.5 (also cooked from this site long ago).

Someone point us in the right direction. thanks

I know that but I'm paying for a 4g plan.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] totalcmdext:
It will be great to have an upgrade procedure without need every time we have new version stable or beta to need to reflash from the scratch....

Any idea or we need to extract the part.xxx?

It is time to thing about this because we have stable version with Mango an only remain some minimal changes....
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Murdhie:
Either go to magldr screen and flash this ROM as you normally would or task 29 the phone and reinstall magldr and then flash this ROM. I would recommend a clean install. If your not sure how to do this PM me.

what about the battery?

How we could install the 7740 update in this ROM.

There is any tool which convert .cab to .xap?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] saMMuel'sky:
I have one more question.

How to install apps on WP7? I've downloaded one battery status app for WP7 from XDA but now I don't know how to install it. I just send it on HD2 via USB and what then?

I'm more familiar with Adroid. :o

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Juno-First:
I'm going have to go back to v1.22 as v1.23b is not unlocked & even chevron cant fix it. As there are non-market apps I need install.

A shame as the camera auto-focus & battery drain are really good with v1.23b.

Good work hd20, looking foward to testing the next version.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] huismeester:
Sir i can install everything with 1.23b no problems
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Petulinek:
Everything? I have problems with HTC apps - converter and HTC Watch and HTC Hub. It downloaded but instalation doesnt work :-(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Juno-First:
I cant install from the market: HTC Locations, I think because theres a problem with the compas, although Locations would install with v1.22.

I meant I cant install any xap from the PC with v1.23b, I've tried everything inc installing a cert, chevron, wAppStore & wXapAssistant.

Although I could install xaps with v1.22 easy.

How did you unlock the phone to install xaps with v1.23b ? thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] mc_hoschi:
+1. HTC apps don't work as I also have problems with my bluetooth. Anything else works great. Thanks a lot for this awesome build!

BTW coming directly from WM 6.5 to WP7.5 I have to get used to some queer changes they (MS) have made... no more simple filetransfer via direct access of my folders, this kills me. Well different story :rolleyes::D

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] tiskewlio:
some bugs

I'm using 1.23b and when I make a call the other side can't hear me unless I talk really loud. This never happened before in android. I could whisper and they still hear me clear. I think another bug is when they hang up there's loud beeping even at 0 system volume. Anyone have fixes for these problems? Other than that this rom is pretty smooth. Loking forward to the final release.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] HD2Owner:
there is a collabo going on with xb0xmod currently to make a updatable 7720 rom.

i will make another non updatable rom with full dft unlock when time has come.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] theslam08:
I was missing the SDK, after that with phone unlocked (looking at main tiles), open the tom installer and it should install any xap. Just installed HTC Hub 1.8 no problem. Thanks for the pointer towards the SDK needing to be installed.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] pack21:
Your build is GREAT!!.....so easy to install, and results in a real WP7 Device!!

Good battery drainage, with the 2 tricks (restarting by mlgr after full charge, and the camera trick)

Hi Team, I tried to use this rom and install successfuly but I have problem with unlock phone via ChevronWP7. I Read it this application not work from 73xx... When I try use this app have connection error with phone :(

Do you have solution how to unlock phone ???

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] saMMuel'sky:
Will be possible or maybe is possible to fix that battery drain? It is really too much of drain, and I would love to stay on that WP7. Because phone is so fast with them. But I have problem with that super battery drain.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] abogdan:
In my case, if I turn off wi-fi, Data and BT + camera trick, then battery drain is quite good (-3...-8 in standby).

When I use internet then the drain is significant (over -170 in standby with wifi on).

Another important role is played by sd card (there are many topics about this subject).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Juno-First:
Nope, no chance install a xap with v1.23b.

After installing SDK 7.1 etc etc. Zune can install an app but chevron/tom xap says the phone is not connected.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] pack21:
Try install with Wappstore.

in 10 apps 2 i cant install with TOM xap installer....but over Wappsore, is ok.;)

Bluetooth is TURNING OFF AUTOMATICALLY after ~1 min of standby (locked phone).

You dont need to unlock, its unlocked, xap installing is without problems

Agreed, I've tried everything inc sdk, wAppStore etc. but v1.23b will not install any xap for me as it reports phone not connected.

Thanks JohnPeeCee,

was indeed helpful. Install worker like a charm. I installed radio 2.12 as i had read battery life is better.

WP7 works fine but there are still a few showstoppers for me (all know and documenten in this thread):

+ bluetooth problemd (carkit and headset)

+ copass problems (playing with maps caused a crash after 15 minutes and a hard reset).

+ getting windows live to work

Thanks again. I'll keep reading this thread to keep track of improvements.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Johnpeecee:
Glad I could help :)

Don't know about BT as I don't use it.

Maps work OK for me.

Have you got the activation code from Microsoft? Many here have just called their local MS support and got the code while others have a problem getting it.

Yes my HD2 (and my wife's) work great on WP7 but I guess it won't be long before we get a 'real' WP7 phone. Want one with dual camera for video calls but the Titan is a bit too pricey at the moment.

Think Microsoft is onto a winner in spite of a few misses like Outlook Task syncronization without the need for Exchange.

can also be the result of a bad flash.

just flash again next time if you face this kind of problems (maybe before posting the problem). :D

why to have wm65 instead to perform task29

just for understanding

greeetz

dv
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] HD2Owner:
to be honest:

i don't really know but it solved the same issue for others.

maybe it's related to people using "use the last 24mb nand" option of magldr.

maybe because magldr is only a second stage bootloader, some wm stuff is needed.

thx , i performed task29, and it run veeeery well.

One question concerning the stocks app: Is it possible to change the source of information? Yahoo Finance is not a very good choice since it does not know many fonds and so.

idk why every single wp7 rom i have used have such slow speed with internet explorer. Android browser is much much faster but IE takes FOREVER to load a page.

HI HD2Owner

i will give it try to explain , cause my English is not the best....

before flashing 1.03 i used Android CM7 Nightlies (App2SD) as my daily OS, after that i flashed 2 other WP7 roms before yours, and i always used android from SD card (partitioned my SD ) . but this time i am using only 1.03.. i hope this helps otherwise i have to explain in german , which is much easier for me :-)

you where booting from sdcard so the nand was not touched by android.

no problems here too.

only microsoft knows... :D

@all:

please leave feedback if you use my rom (except for the known problems in 1st post).

thanks & enjoy
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ikovac:
It is interesting how different experience people get from their HD2s and WP7 around the world. I use HD2O 1.22 version.

I have absolutely no problems with radio 2.15. or battery life. I can easily go more than 24 hours. I use it for surfing, maps and emails. No social networking, not many active tiles, but I do use Exchange push (email arrives immediately to my phone). Other email account synchronizes every 30 minutes.

But yes WP7 sucks in battery management while charging. The best thing I learned is to charge it until Windows says full. then restart and leave it some time in Magldr on USB storage mode and charger connected. That way I get far better battery times while using WP. Otherwise phone would say like 10% and last half day or so on very low battery. I guess WP7 just gets and shows wrong info on battery.

I didn't try bluetooth enough, but what I tried worked - connecting to my laptop at work.

Compass works just fine for me. I installed HTC compass. GPS in Bing maps, Bingle and Gmaps works far better than my motorola defy android and even android in dual boot on HD2. But yes I noticed some System info programs say there is no Compass API or something.

Windows Live account? You mean accessing it and using mail and stuff (skydrive for photos, social BS?) I noticed one thing - I had a really long password for Live ID. And although I could login on my desktop, I had issues with it on the phone. I have noticed that if I shorten a password to minimum 6, I could easily log on, activate, whatever - everything worked. Then I changed my pass back into my 22 char pass, and all stopped again - problems, issues. Now I have shortened my long pass into 11 character pass and all is fine. I have noticed that problem on Winmo 6.5 (HD2) - Messenger just didn't accept more than 16 characters for a password. Now if that is true, microsoft would really need to explain that to users, since many people just didn't realize that and still cannot authorize on Live services with their Live ID. Try setting a short password (like 6-10 chars) for Live ID on your destop and then try accessing it on your phone.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] abogdan:
In my case, after 1week of testing, I'm really impressed about how fast and smooth WP7 is running.

I use 2 Win Live accounts and one gmail without any problems.

For internet browsing on wifi (after my tests) it seems to by quicker than HTC Desire S (Android 2.3.2) (or at least comparable).

The only issue which affect me at this moment is camera. I need it a lot for documents and pictures at work...and the quality is quite bad....much worse than wm6.5.

Does any one succeed to improve camera performances?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ikovac:
Yeah camera is bad on default settings. Plus I really see no point of Autofix in camera menu which makes the picture bluish and looking even worse than the original :)

But it can be much better. If I put:

Brightness: Lower

Metering level: Average

I get much much better pics. Brightness to lower removes bluish tint from my pics in dark environment (inside, evening, no flash), and metering level average makes colours and brightness more natural.

Metering level: Spot allows artistic pics since you can play with big differences in brightness depending what you have in focus.

Also I cannot turn off Face recognition!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] abogdan:
I tried you suggestions for indoor and, because of the missing auto focus, I can not read the text from a picture of a written doc...

Thank you anyway.....
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ikovac:
Hm. I get auto focus if I tap the screen to take a picture. My pics are sharp this way. I just took a pic on a table under a kitchen light of a printed manual with very small letters and the pic is very readable. I tapped on the screen to take a pic. Green button and the little camera icon don't get that sharp images BTW.

See if this helps.

P.S. Auto focus works on a camera button of the original HD7 I think. Half press to focus and then full press to take a pic. On HD2 this is not possible. So I tap the screen and get better pics :)
