[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jianototi:
no you don't, follow the steps from this site

http://www.techienote.com/tag/technology

you will get your information back with the old system, but but!!! if you didn't get a stable wp7 i mean if you didn't use it for a good time more than 5 days.

it would be better to flash new wp7 on ur new SD card.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ice_coffee:
There have been some peeps talking about data speed on their network, with this in mind I did a little test using www.speedtest.net

The website's big desktop flash is a little slow to load on our phones, but goes on to work perfectly.

I am on UK Vodafone and was standing in Leicester Square (Central London) 9PM ish when I performed the test.

I am using Doc V9 froyo (based on JPO)

I managed 4Mbps download (I think vodafone support 7 mbps at this loaction, possibly network contention was an issue)

I also managed 3mbps Upload speed, (I have no idea what vodafone support), which is good going as I have Virgin 50 mbps broadband at home and only get 1.7 mbps upload (as stipulated by my contract with them)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Darktori:
Why go to the website, "there is an app for that" :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Not the best of results from that site over the years it can throw in some idiotic figures like 20MB ps

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 General] GeneralSmart:
there are several apps for speedtest, but imo speettest net is the most handy one
[Galaxy S I9000 General] braenard:
I generally get fairly accurate figures off them too,, and I find that my MBB is a lot faster than the BB we had from the fixed line,,

And I can take it anywhere with me,, Plus I'd never hit the 8mbp/s that Eircom said I'd get here,,

Once I am done with today's exams, I will be installing Android on TMOUS HD2! Nothing has been done with it, as it is a refurbed unit from T-mobile directly.

I plan on installing HyperDroidGBX-v9 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=918899).

First, I need to install HSPL to update my radio (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5279234#post5279234)

it says "1024LEOs (from T-Mobile with 1024ROM) ARE NOT SUPPORTED" so I will have to find out if my HD2 is supported or not. Anyway to check?

It appears I need HSPL2 and need to install HSPL 2.08 (Hard SPL) in order to get Android working. But if my HD2 is 1024... how do I go about this?

Then I need to update my radio (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787)

Then I need to install MAGLDR 1.13 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=893618

Flash ClockWorkMod Recovery (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=898913)

There is also [cLK|MAGLDR] ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.1.9 "YES/NO" v1.3 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=987531

I am unsure what the cLK or the YES/NO refers to so I may opt for the first one instead.

And then (this part is pretty easy since it's similar to flashing ROMs on Nexus One):

4) Boot into MAGLDR (Power On and HOLD the Power Button till MAGLDR options are shown)

Boot into AD Recovery to enter CWM Recovery Mode

If coming from another ROM, do a Nandroid Backup (just to be sure)

Wipe data

Wipe cache

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Go to mounts and storage and mount sdcard

Copy the ZIP you downloaded to your sdcard and unmount

Select install zip from sdcard

Find the HyperDroid-GBX-v*.zip and install

Reboot and remove Phone from USB

After initial setup, reboot to get everything settled

Enjoy the Clean, Fast, Minimalist Gingerbread HyperDroid Goodness!

I hope I have everything down correctly! If anyone finds any mistakes in my procedure, let me know. Thank you very much
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Yeah you've got what you need. Make sure you choose the 2.15.50.14 radio to flash. Not a .51 on your TMO Leo. Basically all I see wrong with it is the SPL, you're best off using the newer, HSPL4. It's the exact same just supports newer SPL's etc. Also make sure that when flashing to HSPL you choose 2.08.HSPL from the drop-down menu and not 2.08.0000.

Also the Clockwork, just use the first one, the second one is basically for the cLK Android bootloader instead of MAGLDR so it's not needed.

One more thing, make sure you flash the right size Clockwork partition for your ROM or you might get stuck in a bootloop. :D

Happy flashing! :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nexus14:
Thanks very helpful information.

I do have another question. In the radio thread,

it appears it's partitioned into 2 separate groups. you advise me to flash radio Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14** which i was going to do, but what is the significance of radios Leo_RADIO_15.xxxxxxx???

And the use of asterisks?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pakure:
read further down the line .Leo_RADIO_15.36.50.07U_2.09.50.29_2

leo.15.xxxxx...2.08.50...

.2.07.50...2.06.50...2.05.50....etc..these are older radios..........
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Yeah they're older radio's and they don't work with flashing Android AFAIK. Don't quote me on that as I don't actually know. What you don't know can't hurt you. ;)

[XPERIA X8 General] blackburner:
Hi

Since akmd2 is using lots of cpu, I've removed akmd2 from /system/bin so that my battery would last more than just a few hours. Since I've lost compass, but what does this akmd2 do? I don't really see any more difference lol

At least my battery now doesn't drain fast.
[XPERIA X8 General] Boshe:
What's akmd2?
[XPERIA X8 General] blackburner:
I don't really know, but deleting it cured the battery drain. Anyway so far the only thing that stopped working was the compass, without opening any root applications, I've had no reboots and it's really smooth (animations / angry birds ...)
[XPERIA X8 General] Boshe:
I'll first wait for some of developers to see this thread,and to tell me what exaclly is that. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] blackburner:
You can just rename it to akmd2_old or something like that, it boots anyway. Or you can just make an update.zip with it and see what happens:)
[XPERIA X8 General] doixanh:
High cpu frequency is the reason for 2.3.3 battery drain and that is what I did to prevent battery drain.

If you run akmd2 in adb shell you will see that it returns the value for orientation. It's basically the app to monitor X8's accelerometer. We kill it and x8 cannot detect the orientation anymore.
[XPERIA X8 General] st3inadler:
does that disable the accelerometer,so i cant turn the phone in landscape mode anymore and cant play games which need the accelerometer to steer p.ex.?
[XPERIA X8 General] viper001:
A switch maybe? To turn off or on.
[XPERIA X8 General] blackburner:
yep it gets disabled.. tested with labyrinth.

[Thunderbolt General] DROIDNP:
I have not been able to send any SMS since I purchased my Thunderbolt yesterday. One SMS did go through and my friend said it had a whole bunch of numbers and not my real phone number. I have google this issue and it seems is a problem with the phone trying to send the SMS/MMS through the 4G network and not the CDMA 3G. Is anyone else having these issues that live in a 4G area?

Callblock

Call firewall

If you could point me to a review, or if you could share your experience with any of these, I'd appreciate it.

Thank you.

hi everybody,

i have 2X 0.5 cm scratches on my dell streak gorilla glass screen now due to my overconfidence in its scratch resistance. the scratches are of a medium depth and cause the rainbow effect on very bright backgrounds. does anybody know whether wet application protectors like zagg or extreme guard will hide these kind of scratches as i have already tried those with "static cling"? thanks

Imhav eheard others use the zagg to hide scratches, but i do not know how deep the scratches were.
[Desire HD Accessories] GerdJ:
Hi there,

some time ago I compared some cases for the Desire HD and focused on the GPS signal. I uploaded a video to youtube.

Just search for 'HTC Desire HD case GPS test ' on youtube.

Comments are welcome!
[Desire HD Accessories] gflare:
Nice video,

Keep in mind the Case-mate Barely There Mirrored Silver case blocks the signal. This video and other people have noticed GPS does indeed work with the black case, but the silver case is bad news.

I've contacted case-mate about the mirrored silver model, and I'm hoping they send me a matte black version to compare. If they do, I'll be sure to post my findings!
[Desire HD Accessories] paul c:
interesting... I have a CaseMate Tough (silicone plus hard matt plastic)

I was sat in the attic of my house, underneath a skylight winidow.

I did get more satellites visible and locked without the case. I got 8 on average (max 10), whilst without the case I got mostly 4 (max 6).

The silicone skin did not make any difference.

Still acceptable, in an area of good-poor visibility of the satellites.

But should this really be a surprise since the GPS signal is very weak anyway, and it has difficulty passing though material?
[Desire HD Accessories] GerdJ:
The strange thing for me is the fact, that some cases do not block the signal, but others do. There are reports that not all silicone cases block.
[Desire HD Accessories] paul c:
I forgot I had a Barely There which I don't use (since as cases go, it doesn't offer much protection :rolleyes:)

Took the CaseMate Tough off, the signal went from 6 to 9 satellites locked.

Put on the Barely There - the signal dropped to JUST ONE in view/use (average 2).

So, this Barely There case doesn't offer protection, and stops the GPS function!
[Desire HD Accessories] GerdJ:
Sorry, black or silver bt?
[Desire HD Accessories] paul c:
good point :) - silver for the barely there case
[Desire HD Accessories] gflare:
Thanks for grabbing the old case and testing it. I hope we can get some more input from people with the other color variations to see if it's something to do with the paint/material/finish...
[Desire HD Accessories] GerdJ:
Good idea. I will get some other cases for testing maybe. If so I will post the results.
[Desire HD Accessories] gflare:
A quick update with another case...

This case purchased off ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260746755524

It does block GPS, not as much as the case-mate mirrored silver, but enough that I won't be using it whenever I try to use GPS function.
[Desire HD Accessories] el_commandante:
That's interesting. I also have the Case-Mate Tough and it seems to block a great amount of signal. While having it on and sitting inside a tram I can't get a fix at all. After taking it off and waiting a minute I do a decent signal. Same happens while using it inside a car. Sometimes I do get a signal with the case on, but very slowly and the signal is much weaker than with the case off. What ROM are you using?
[Desire HD Accessories] Maverik DHD:
very nice video

White Barely There Case

Hello,

Does anybody know if the white Barely there case causes the same reception problems as the silver one? I was just going to buy it when I've stumbled on this topic.
[Desire HD Accessories] IN-Freak:
very nice vid i like it :)
[Desire HD Accessories] gflare:
Well, case-mate doesn't even officially offer the mirrored silver anymore, so that might suggest the white one is ok.
[Desire HD Accessories] SensationStyler:
**** i have the silver one XD
[Desire HD Accessories] shah_jee:
totaly agree, had a white rubbery silicone case and GPS was virtually disabled.
[Desire HD Accessories] gflare:
Keep in mind, you can visit case-mate's website and contact them. They allowed me to RMA my mirrored silver case, and promptly shipped me a matte black case as replacement.

HTC HD7 - Same screen saver problem

Hi all,

Overview:

- I'm Brazilian and I traveled to the U.S. last month and bought a phone HTC HD7. The network was TMobile and the phone was locked to my network.

- I unlock the phone to my network with a code. Calls and another services are working.

- The phone does not report any new update for the WP7.(!!!!)

My problem:

- When phone is locked after minute show screensaver with windows phone demonstaration. With it the battery dies very quickly making it impractical to use the phone.

Can anyone tell me how I fix updating the phone?

OS version: 7.0.7004.0

Radio version: 5.51.09.11a_22.31.50.09u(111116)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeRedPR:
I have noticed that when trying to connect my Thunderbolt through USB and use the USB tethering option it turns the phone data off defeating the whole purpose. It works fine with the hotspot, but not the USB.

Was that disabled by Verizon? Any fix or am I doing something wrong?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperFly03:
You mean connecting via internet pass through mode?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeRedPR:
No, Internet pass through is to connect the phone to the Internet via PC. I mean the opposite - Internet Connection Mode - where you share the phone's mobile network with the PC through USB. When selecting that, the phone stops displaying 4G or any data icon and the PC shows that it is disconnected from the Web.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperFly03:
Yeah, that's what I was thinking but not what I said.

That's the correct behavior from the phone. It prevents you from doing data on your phone I believe but your laptop or whatever works perfectly. That's how it acted when I tethered at Buffalo Wild Wings yesterday while watching the tourney.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmcclure937:
Blah! HTC Sense... I am disgusted with it as well. :rolleyes:

Best bet would probably be getting a third-party launcher (Launcher Pro / ADW Launcher).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
I'm a Launcher Pro junkie. Love it. Sense on the other hand is definitely a love/hate thing for me. Some of its features are really slick, but many of them just get in the way. I too would like to change that personalize button. Need to look into it more closely.

It won't matter...once a CM7 gingerbread build comes out for this thing, I'm there and goodbye Sense.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmcclure937:
Agreed. Once CM7 is ported and I have my TB rooted... there is no turning back to this bloated, stock, Sense 2.2 garbage.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thaJack:
I've always loved LauncherPro. I have the Plus version. But this is my first HTC phone, so I'm using it stock for a bit first just to get a taste of what Sense is all about for a while.

I don't mind it too much. Runs smooth, but has so much bloatware attached to it.

If I could customize the dock buttons around and hide icons in the app tray, I think I'd be fine with Sense.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante_l1:
I have seen this done in some roms but I am pretty sure you have no shot without root. I think I had it in Mikfroyo but it was called modified Rosie or Rosie Options. Something like that.
