Installed first wp7 on my hd2 ... And I think it's the best. 1 big problem is I can't install any application, I have created new live id and when I login it says activation failed, and another window opens to enter activation code,

How can I get this code, searched everywhere and learned I have to call MS. Is there any other way?

And can I install apps through PC without activation ?

And if calling is only option , where do I call & how to ask them to activate it.

Regards :)

I won't recommend PNY, I use to use it and I had major lag watching video online and moving around in my phone. I recent bought a 16 gig SanDisk(for 16 dollars online cheap and it brand new) I see alot of difference in the way my phone move. Idk but yours maybe different but that is my experience with it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Anden1986:
Hi again!

Sorry for the late answer - I have had a busy day ;-)

All you have to do when changing SD card is format it to fat 32 in your pc first. Then on the phone go to about and select reset. When the phone turns off take out the battery before it starts up again :-) Switch memory-card and boot the phone normally! Will be like the first time you turned it on again unfortunatly so you have to start over :-( Zune only syncs your music, videos and pictures! Everything else is stored on MS Cloud service :-)

Happy new year!! :-D

Hi HD20 are you looking at creating a XAP for this mod or do we have to wait until you next release .. if this is possible of course ?? :rolleyes:

how to change boot animation

How to change this rom's bootanimation(unlocked phone) to stock animation(windows phone)..pls help

I think it has to do with either internet installing xap or phone model.

Windows Phone Device Manager

In the search for a backup solution for my HD2 (EU) with this excellent rom installed I ran into Windows Phone Device Manager: http://www.touchxperience.com.

Link to post in XDA: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16490860&postcount=29.

I manage to install the Windows Phone Device Manager in my Win7 pc and the TouchExperience on the phone, but the app will not launch in the phone. I have read through all relevant forum posts at the www.touchxperience.com website but can't find any solution for the failing launch.

Anyone else in here with experience on this software? Should this software work on this ROM or is there any reason for not working..?

Hi,

Maybe a stupid question.

But how do i get from the BTTF rom to this one ? i tried to unlock my sd to install w 6.5 (and then the rest to get to this rom).

But it doesn't work
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] HD2Owner:
you have to unlock your card with the wp7 rom you used before (storage lock tool).

another way to unlock it is with a nokia like e52.

only install my rom if your card is unlocked already.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Re-Mi:
thnx,

i overlooked one cab.

Do you recommend the whole process again ? or can i jump from bttf to your rom without installing wm6.5 first ?

nevermind, i did the fresh from the start install (still doing it :P)

Greetz,

btw if it works like i want it to be. i will add some to your donation list.. (it will be the phone for my girlfriend, and she doesn't know anything about flashing so it will have to work for "dummies" :P )

Now i cant side load anything and another strange thing is before i have a 3g tab under the celular settings but now it gone and i can't enale 3g it only runs on Edge. Could you please tell me what can i do ?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Re-Mi:
Can someone assist me,

I've installed this rom, and sideloaded 1 xap file with Tom xap installer.

After dinner i tried to load more xap's trough Tom's xam installer and i installed Wappstore.

But now the wAppstore says my phone isn't connected and Tom's xap installer gives an error saying my phone is either not connected or not unlocked.

Is the phone locked again ?

You must starting zune have you do that?

Hi huismeester,

Nog een gelukkig nieuwjaar.

Yes i have started zune before launching the programs. The phone is connected with zune, but is ignored by the other programs.

Greetz,
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] Anden1986:
Try these steps - Worked for me when I had the same problem! :-)

1. On your phone disable screen time-out (aka. set screen to always on)

2. Launch Zune

3. Connect phone and make sure Zune has recognised it and it's done with sync

4. Open up wAppstore - should say connected now!

/Anders

Thanks Anders,

I would swear i already tried that, but it works nog on both computers :D

Now in english

I use this rom to but i dont understand this problem everything works fine with me with all apps in Tom xap installer.

I think a hard reset can fix the problem you can try you can try first a soft reset

just check your usb cable to the pc to you never no
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SagaPer:
I have read a lot of posts the recent days stating the same situation as for me: the TouchExperience will not start in the phone. When trying to start the app you get an error message stating that Windows Phone Device Manager is not able to start TouchExperience. Start the software manually on phone.

In the thread "Windows Phone Device Manager for WP7" (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=965788) there is a statement like this:

"If you get a message "Unable to launch TouchXperience" on custom ROMS it's because the ROM has some missing components, so you have to launch it manually."

I have a fully working phone with all other apps working except for this one. Anyone else in here having the same problem?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SagaPer:
Response on email to Julien Schapman on the 1th of January 2011 where I asked for a newer version of Windows Phone Device Manager and why the TouchExperience fails to launch in my phone:

"The latest version is 1.8 but newer versions will come soon. Some custom ROMs have compatibility issues with TouchXperience because they have missing or corrupted components, and sometimes it will not launch automatically or not at all on the phone, so you have to manually launch TouchXperience on the phone before connecting to PC. Please follow carefully all the recommendations regarding connection issues on WPDM page."

Can the author of this ROM please comment on this? As far as I can see there is a lot of users with the same problem as me (both with this ROM and other ROMs): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20938579&postcount=1711.

PS: I HAVE READ through all Chapmans's Windows Phone Device Manager / TouchExperience recommendations and I feel sure that I have followed them line by line..
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dxdy:
best version of WPDM for HD2 customs ROM's is v1.7.0.0

1.8 is full of bugs.... also with 1.7 backup app settings and data (not full app) working very fine...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] SagaPer:
Thanx for info. Do you by any chance have the 1.7 version to share with me?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ritejbisaria:
how to install downloaded apps on this rom???
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] dxdy:
same as to others ROM's

from marketplace you must enter Live ID activation code

from PC with any XAP deploy tool (XAPDeployX, Tom XAP Installer, Windows Phone Device Manager, Windows Phone Power Tools) and (is necessary to say this?) WP SDK 7.1 installed on PC and Zune
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ikovac:
Yes, both true...

and if you don't want any of this fuss, just go here on xda or any other place (like HD2O marketplace) in your original phone browser (ie9), tap xap you like and tap yes to install. Done. No SDK, Zune, no cable, no XAP installer,no downloading to your computer, no computer for the matter of fact, no nothing. Simple XAP TAP and voila! :)

WAAAAY better way than any (even heavily customized, small) SDK (if you go for a complete SDK you end up with zillions of files, registry changes, updates and stuff), Zune (good, but RAM is sky high) and XAP installers (that sometimes don't show that they work or they don't - :D) and phone locks that prevent updating and you can't find your cable and blah blah...

Just my opinion...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ritejbisaria:
thanks yeah i also did some research on sideloading and although hav almost everything set for pc to phone version i think ill give the try thru ie9 sounds easy and hassle free...thanks alot for helping a noob :D cheers mate

flashing interrupted

When I saw the new release, I immediately formatted my sd card and flashed the 1.25 ROM. But it interrupted during the flashing process and made the typical sound, when you disconnect an USB drive. MAGLDR still booted, so I simply reflashed and now everything works fine. My question is, if this can somehow harm the device and if I should do anything, like flashing stock WM 6.5, MAGLDR, WP7.5 again, do task29 and start from the scratch or if I should just keep it how it is?

same error again

ok, since the error during my first flash bothered me, I did task29, flashed MAGLDR again and flashed the new ROM again (reformatted sd card before as always). What happened: exactly the same! Error blablabla during flashing, so I went back to MAGLDR and started again, and just as previously, the second attemp worked flawless! Isn't that strange? I already used HD2O's WP7.5 v1.22 and 1.24 and never had this or any problem.

You can start strait from here:

in MAGLDR:

10. Services, 4. UseLast24NAND

10. Services, 5. ClearSD MDR

5. USB Flasher and run DWI.exe to flash ROM

Hi sir, is great to have multi-touch in this rom, and yet u fix the sound / volume in version 1.24 and i didn't realise that. Btw there is a problem with animation and color. the xbox live color supposed to be green, the startup logo had changed to "unlocked phone" instead of "windows phone", well i just hope that in next version u can replaced it with the original logo on the starup screen to make look more original. looking forward for the world most stable and perfect hd2 wp7 .5 roms=)

Hi,

sorry what does this mean?

Windows Live:

Windows Live functions including the Market don't work.

To sync contacts/calendar/emails you need to manually set up

your Hotmail account. Using MS Hotmail Connector it's then

possible to sync with Outlook.

Does it mean that Marketplace will NOT work on this ROM?

Thank you!

Like this series of rom very much , but have a question: I am using v1.25 now, if want to try v1.26 need I turn my HD2 to wm6.5? or I can update from v1.25 to 1.26? and what about the SD card? need to format again ?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Development] ikovac:
I'll do like I always do:

1. Open the back cover so I can have access to battery and sd card

2. Go to settings - about phone, and tap reset your phone - it will reset the phone.

3. Before it starts booting (while still in magldr) remove battery and sd card

4. Put sd card into laptop and run "sd formatter" and click options, format type quick and set the size adjustment ON, and it will format the sd card to the full size. Put it back into the phone.

5. flash the rom (standard procedure - magldr flash usb, start dwi in rom folder and flash)

the whole procedure takes 6-7 minutes. no need for wm6.5, hardresets, or anything... It just works.

EDIT: Done. As always :)

My opinion about which version of ROM is best for daily using. I am using radio 2.15.50.14 and 5.51.

I tested ROM 1.22, then 1.24, 1.25 and now last verion 1.26. The best battery and good speed I have on 1.22. From 1.24 I have large problem with battery (battery drain).
