[Q] HD7 mango how to! - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
there are multiple threads related to HD7 getting upgrade to mango beta.
I tried some of them but nothing seems to work out for me as this is all new to me i am little afraid too that i might brick my phone.
So please if anyone can help without yelling try search button then it will be lot helpful coz i already tried my best to find answers from search but there are millions of lines to be read to be able to understand anything and i am in hurry coz if phone doesnt update in 2 days i will have to sell third day..
so here are the details of phone.
Os version: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware revision number: 2250.09.16901.707
hardware revision number: 0002
Radio software: 5.54.09.21.22.33b.50.10U
so if anyone can help me get mango beta then it will be the best.
and i had updated to NODO so i dont know now how to jailbreak it coz i want to get good applications which are not available in marketplace.
skype is necessary for me.
if someone can help in that too then it will be best.
thanx in advance

just search
I mean seriously if you're too lazy to read the instructions of how to do it, how do you expect anyone to even help you?
Secondly if you're afraid of bricking, don't do it. EOD
The mango beta isn't meant for consumers, but for developers. Yeah xda provided this for us but that's it. If you're afraid of doing it, don't do it.

Why don't you actually tell us what's wrong with the phone when you try update it?
Also, try the search button.
A little search done this for me - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149265

Can downgrading (from 18538 to 18533) cause any problem ?

Hi
I am really very unsatisfied with 18538 ..
Device hangs-up, sound disappers, theme changes but wallpaper remains same.... bla bla
Can anyone suggest me which ROM should I use ??
and is there any problem that I should be careful about while downgrading?
Regards,
Hassan
1. what roms you try ? links plizzz
2 .. Did you try my collection of files ( 1.00 for g3-g4 ... 1.01 for g3 unis)
I don’t know how good I am suggesting things to people, but I guess I can give it a try. You can try “ThingOnASpring” new version and that will be version 3.2 or you can wait for “Beasty & Leo” new ROM. Rumors going around that the new version is going to change the way we see our universal. So there is a big hype about their new ROM.

For: mo3ulla
First of all, thanks for the reply!
Actually I've recently learnt to upgrade, so about 3 weeks ago I used:
'htc_uni_wm5_2[1].041_tmob_unbranded'
then about 2 weeks ago I found:
http://vidmes.com/Uni/Kitchens/ranju...1933_18533.rar
(this one really made me realize that I am using '520mhz' device)
Then few days ago I found another update: (which I am still using and suffering from)
http://vidmes.com/Uni/ROMs/Jwrightmc...2010_11500.zip
There was so much mentioned about this ROM on the forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=352203
This makes my device 'ONLY' look great but performance has declined, significantly:
wm6 professional 5.2.1938 (build 18538.0.7.0)
Rom ver: 2.12.08, dated: 12/15/07
extrom ver: 2.12.010 wwe, protocol: 42.54.p8, radio ver: 1.18
(I think this makes my device G3 ! Right ?)
So, Please share ur experiacne and advice me what to do next.
Thanks once again!

Dear Faraz.Riaz,
Thanks alot for ur concern in my problem!
I read about 'thingonaspring' but I got confused when I read this warning:
'Before flashing ANY 5.2.19xx-based ROM your phone should be fully unlocked and SuperCID, otherwise it may lock up or crash randomly'
I wasn't able to understand what actually 'full unlocked and SuperCID' meant.. I was also confused that how to make my device superCID.
If you have any knowledge about it... please do let me know!
and u r rite about 'Beasty & Leo' ROM, even I've read same things about it so let's hope for the best !
I'm really inspired by the work and cooperation of these Master Minds here, working & always helping dumies like me
I know I have to be always right part of being who I am. Seriously, I did have a chance to see “beasty & leo” new ROM up close and I am really impressed. You can take my word for it I don’t get inspired by too many things. Now don’t be too hard on yourself, no one here thinks you are a dummy. Check you PM (private Message).

[Q] help with straight talks lg optimus q L55C

ok so as the title states, i need some help with my lg optimus q on straight talk wirless
this phone to my knowledge is simmilar to the s, and the v versions with the t and the one versions being gsm but i am not sure on that
heres some info
Modle number LGL55C
Android version 2.3.4
Baseband version LGL55C_6170
Kernel version 2.6.35.7
Build number GRJ22
software version LGL55CV1
so to my knowlege this is a basic version of droid direct from google without much done to it but to lock out tethering in any way and ofcourse the root access. also to my knowlege the 2.3.4 must be downgraded for the root to work before being rebooted into that version or the root will dissapear. this is all based on the optimus v so im not sure on any of this. and i realy need some help
HELP PLEASE
*Bump* Also searching for this
i've found a few links for the recovery and an alpha version of a rooted Operating system for it.
But i've not found the directions for rooting it.. which makes my other finds useless. and i cant post the links to them because some stupid spam prevention on this site demands i have at least 8 posts before i can put up links.
** i found a working root for it.. but since i cant post links.. i'll do what i can..
androidcentral .com /virgin-mobile-optimus-slider/126357-possible-root-try-4 .html
remove the spaces.. you will find a post on the page that has this..
You could more than likely follow [How-To] Root, Custom Recovery, NANDroid Backup but when you get to post #2 (custom recovery) you'll want to adjust for Recovery for the Straight Talk Optiums Q(LGL55C)
follow those links and directions.. i have it working on mine
now about some custom operating systems.. i've only found one.. i've misplaced its link its called lgl44c_Dirty_Alpha_2 think the author said it was just stock with a few extras added.
best of luck to you.. sorry i cant give out the links.. blame the spammers and the forums rules... since my account is several years old you'd think i'd be able to..
Bump any progress?
life is better with root and ICS.
any update

Check into AreaRomQ so far i have found nothing on here for this phone other than people trying to find where to get mods and other things for it with no luck at all. I ran across that rom around july/august last year. You can find it on AndroidArea51 . com (take out the spaces... fail for the no link posting for people who actually are trying to help) Hope this helps you guys out a little better!!!

[q] htc hd2 installing stock 6.5 problem!

Hello guys!
I have installed Cyanogenmod 3.7.0 (android 2.3.7 version). It's MALGDR installed.
I want back to stock, but I'm not sure how.
I have downloaded the ROM from local HTC-site.
The rom is put on SD-card, so should I erase everything on SD card and make a partiinion FAT32 or can I do this AFTER I have installed WinMO 6.5?
Or could this occur some corrupt data or something during installl? Any help is highly appreciated.
Also, when I will start installing. Should I use the method on using VOLUME DOWN + POWER ON button, to get into that tri-colour screen and then plug in USB, wait for it to connect and then just drive from computer?
When I run the ROM from the computer it is like random rom install. It has to detect the device etc.. for it to install. This will not be any problem?
Thanks alot guys. I really hope someone with education around this will help me out.
Please any help!!
would like to give it a bump, so perhaps someone can help me.

I'd be very surprised if you were the 1st person to want to go from a Magldr booting ROM back to WM, so the answers you need are probably already there. I pointed you there purely because you'd be surprised how many people don't know their devices have specific forums.
Edit: Here you go. A quick google search found this...

Wow, that was a real nice thread. But I'm wondering about if I install without deleting partitions on SD card, and just run the ROM-file that I downloaded from HTC.
Can I do this? I'm really not sure how to exceed this prodedure, since I want radio and HSPL being all original.
Thanks for the thread though, mate. Hope you can help me out perhaps here!

Official Global Windows 8.1 Rom??

Hello Friends,
I have purchased unlocked HTC M8 , got Android on it. I want to install Windows 8.1 on it. Do we have official global Windows 8.1. ?
Plus after installing Windows 8.1 will it be possible to upgrade to Windows 10 ?
It is currently (and also likely) not possible to install WP8.1 on an Android M8 (I tried) because there is no way to put the WP bootloader onto the Android M8, and from the information I found during my attempt, the PBL of the WP version also contain secure boot, which is not present on the Android version, this can have effects on the OS that we don't know of yet.
Super misleading title...
@djp007s29 , please search before posting . There are numerous posts that ask the same thing that you're asking all within this forum.

Right, but look at the keywords of your first sentence. Android, wanting to put Windows 8.1 on it. There are many threads that ask this same question and the same answer and reasoning has been given.
Until Microsoft and HTC somehow publicly announce an interchangeable ROM, then the answer is no. WP 8.1-specific ROMs are only usable on WP8.1 specific handsets, unless otherwise deemed so due to the lovely secure boot that WP requires.

lol.. i hope you realize that you're in the windows variant subforum of the htc m8.
we never said it's possible or easy without lots of skill/efforts. just noobs asking the same thing again and we reply.
windows version has totally different bootloader. is that our fault in any way?
and.. RUU zip is not useless at all.. people with windows variant can use this to restore their devices.
so stop acting as if you're in a android device forum.
