Sleep of Death on HTC HD2 running NexusHD2 GB V3.2a - General Questions and Answers

I tried to search for an answer on this, but could not find a way to limit my search to the hardware and software -- and because I'm new, I can't ask the question in the RIGHT thread in the RIGHT forum!
I am trying SD installs of Android on a T-Mobile USA HTC HD2. I have tried AmeriCan Android, which was beautiful, but it locked up after the third or fourth start. (I re-installed twice with the same results.)
Now I am trying NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.2a by tytung, and it has been great ... except that it goes into SOD in no pattern that I can discern. Yes, I'm sure this has been covered, but as noted above, I don't know how to limit my searches to find WHERE this has been covered!
Here is my hardware/software:
HTC HD2 with 1024MB flash and 576MB RAM.
WinMo 6.5, version 5.2.21892
ROM version 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio version 2.10.50.26
SPL version 2.10
SD Card: Sandisk class 2, 16 GB (stock card that came with phone)
No HSPL, MagLDR, cLK, or CWR installed -- just the Android folder on the SD card.
Any help will be most appreciated!

Lots of looks but no replies. Am I the only one ?

Maybe it is the low signal-to-noise ratio. The traffic on this site is incredible!

Bump - still hoping for some help!

In case anyone else is having this problem, I finally found a solution. I followed the steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20389084. I don't understand why that worked, but I am enjoying my Android phone!

Any UK MDA T-Mobile upgraders here?

I have MDA on T_Mobile UK and would like to upgrade to the latest rom but am confused by so many posts and different lanuages.
Could anyone just tell me
1) How to back my rom up incase of problems
2) How to get the latest english rom with the patch for more memory
3) How to install it
4) How to put all the t-mobile settings back ie GPRS etc
TIA
I have an MDA Compact from T-Mobile UK and I upgraded with the Q-Tek 1.11 ROM doing the rounds. I forgot all about the ext rom, but after I upgraded I restored a full backup I had created using Sprite Backup. I asked on this forum if restoring the backup negated the ROM upgrade in any way, but no-one seemed to know. Anyway, all the T-Mobile customisation came back and there have been no problems since.
AS soon as I can get a proper T-Mobile ROM I will upgrade with this.
hi mate after you restored your backup did you still have the qtek rom on the phone?
Yes. I get the qtek splash screen when I reboot, and if I go to 'Device Information' I get this:
ROM version: 1.11.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/14/05
Radio version: 1.11.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.01.128 WWE
Hi
Thanks for the reply how did you do the update was there any error messages that need to be ignored?
Also going to use sprite backup later have you got any tips?
Thanks
Not really - the whole thing was completely painless for me. Just follow the instructions to the letter.
Sprite Backup is great - I get it to automatically backup my PDA to an SD card each night so I always have an up-to-date backup.
Is there a trial version of sprite backup of do I have to buy it?
What instructions did you follow would be good to just do the same as you as it work rather than me stuffing it up.
Thanks

cool whats your phone like now? is it any better?
My MDA Compact is really no different after the upgrade - it would be useful to know exactly what should be better. I still can't send files to it using bluetooth.
Last night I re-did the ROM upgrade but this time I reinstalled all my apps and only used Sprite to restore documents etc. rather than the whole system. I think this is a better way forward, although on Sprite's website there is a section on how to correctly use Sprite Backup to restore after a ROM upgrade - have a look at http://tinyurl.com/dhzrp
I downloaded a T-Mobile UK CAB file which adds back all the T-Mobile settings without the garish pink colour scemes.
The instructions I followed are in this thread http://tinyurl.com/863qt - as you work through you will get an idea of what to do. In there somewhere I seem to remember someone posted a simple guide.
I have a qtek s100 rom buymobiles.net or something like that.
I used the program to hack your own rom for Extended storage - made a safe backup first to keep on my PC, just in case, hacked the ROM, flashed it back on the phone and it worked fine. There are a number of error messages that come up, but they're all to be expected, but do follow the instructions carefully and they'll put your mind at ease.
After the flash, you get 27mb of "Storage" instead of the previous 7mb. I've got a 1gig card so it doesn't make much difference to me, but it's useful, and worth doing at the start so you don't have to re-install everything if you do bite the bullet later and apply the hacked ROM.
The hacked ROM will be a copy of your own ROM, so nothing will change ROMwise, however, I foolishly overlooked the fact that that space comes from somewhere, in this case it wipes out the intellidialer and some other gubbins. I had no backup of these, but forunately it's all stored away on the XDA developers FTP. Someone more informed than I can correct me, but I think the only files you really need to reinstall are the intellidialer. Also squirrel out the cab that contains settings for your network, orange, O2 etc (i haven't found these, they're on XDA developers somewhere bu i forgot where! Drop me a line if you find them...)
Once you've done that - well, your phone is pretty much as it originally was, but with a bit more storage for free. not a bad thing.
I would flash the ROM and then reinstall rather than doing a Sprite Backup/Restore, since the registry will be in a very different state after the ROM flash. However, i don't think it'll do any harm.
Sprite Backup is certainly worth getting hold of, and keep a copy of your backup on an SD card and your PC in case your phone gets 'half inched'.
Hope that helps.

questions and answer
Try this site for uk gprs network settings
http://www.buymobilephones.net/smartphone_setup.ihtml
Hope this is hat you were after???
also......pls could you tell me .....
what rom version did you use for your upgrade?
how does the phone benefit from upgrading, in terms of "real world" use?
can you upgrade the storage to the stated 20+mb without upgrading the rom version?
can you use any rom from any country from any model and network or do you have to find an exact match eg UK T mob MDA compact?
sorry for the million questions...i have been reading this site for days and have ended up dazed and confused....
riz- there's a tool that will modify any normal rom to the extended rom version.
Extended Rom provides you with a pseudo "Storage Card" called "Storage". if you check the control panel > system > memory > storage you should have about 7mb. Using the extended rom hack, you will hack 27mb, at pretty much no cost to you; this is very useful for storing backups, installation files, photos etc, or anything that you never want to lose, since this space is usable by you, but won't be lost if the phone runs out of battery at any time (unlike the phone's normal memory, that will be wiped if there's a prolonged loss of power). Although using a big SD card is an even better way to do this, it's useful to get teh 27mb for free if it's available i think.
To get the 27mb, find the tool in the upgrading magician forum to hack any rom to bigrom http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=22582&highlight=anansky+rom.
Then, use the backup procedure described on that page to copy your own ROM from your phone to your pc. (you'll need an SD card and a card reader to do this). make a backup of that file
Then, use the prog to hack your own rom, then flash it back to your phone. Then your phone will have exactly the same rom as it had before, but better. You will lose some of the guff that was there before, but as i said perviously, this can all be downloaded from XDA forums.
So, I heartily recommended this just for the convenience of being able to store backups etc securely etc..

thanks for the very indepth instructions... still a bit scared to try it ...only got the phone yesterday....prob wait another hour or so...he he he

Are there any notable differences between your old rom version and the 1.11.?? I hear the 1.12 has been received with mixed reception…
thanks
Thanks for the cab settings!
Yeah, I guess you might as well patch directly to 1.12, although it's annoying that there's no update history etc to show what's been "improved"!.
I've just bitten the bullet and ordered the ebuyer SD wireless card (£26 delivered, 50% cheaper than ebay!). Hope it's ok, quite worried about it. But, when i did the Big Rom I had this in mind - although my main card is 1gig, obviously I'll have to pop it out to use the sd. so, I can keep essential apps in the 27mb, rather than feeling cramped in 7mb. Makes sense, no?

MDA on O2
Hi there,
I have just bought an unlocked MDA compact but can't get it to work on O2!
Can anyone help me?
Cheers,
Evan
I have an unlocked MDA connected to Tesco Mobile (actually uses the O2 network) and it works fine.
What exactly is the problem ?
Stu
Stu,
Thanks for your reply.
The MDA that I have seems to be unlocked as I have it on Orange at the moment, but, when I put my O2 sim card in it just says that there is no service!
Evan
The only thing that springs to mind is that Orange is on a different frequency to O2 so maybe you need to check the network preferences to make sure that it is set to automatic.

Reflashing an old E335*

Reflashing an old E335
Hi, this is my first post here on my new account (I forgot what email address/password/name I used on the old one.)
I recently found a working charger for my old Toshiba E335.
Here are the specs:
300mhz cpu
32mb rom
64mb ram
320x240px 65k screen
1gb(in the slot right now) sd card slot
Is there any way that I could reflash this to Windows Mobile 6? Cause my old phone (T32) had WM6 before it got stolen .... Just as I was getting used to it.
So, yea. If anyone can provide a good answer and a flashing image/tool, I would be happy.

I know that Toshiba E335 is not prepared for WM5, even for WM2003.
Do you have English or German language on your device?

[Q] HTC Touch diamond - Fully working Android version wanted.

Hi all,
I am not starting this thread without doing my research.
I have installed few android versions (some will install and some won't). And the one I was able to install were not fully functional. They were either alpha or beta versions.
I can do with either 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3.
Can someone please tell me if there is a version out there that I can install and work perfect or near perfect on my HTC Touch Diamond?
I have been trying to search this forum and everytime I come accross a perfect version, it won't load on my phone. I am not sure what am I missing.
Hope someone understand where I am coming from.

troubles with Supernova 2.4.0.1 and Desire

Hi everybody,
I hope this is the good place to post ...
I installed Supernova 2.4.0.1 because because I lacked space to run large applications like Copilot or Navionics, apparently correctly by following the entire tutorial.
Radio changed but apparently better result.
But I have huge problems of slower display (in fact, I suppose this is the system who is slow) when starting applications, and I had to completely restart several times without changing the problem of slow ...
Apparently, the function of support for the SD card is done, but there seems to slow the system and I had several crashes as Sense unresponsive system or other applications like the camera .. .
The Copilot GPS that is not sensitive at all ...
The agenda that takes forever to come, when I remove a widget to replace it with a shortcut, or the widgets are removed a considerable time before disappearing.
SD card "stock" comes with the device, a SanDisk 4GB Class 2 micro SDHC. I replaced it by a Sandisk SDHC16GB and Class10 completely new that worked fine on DVD players or backup on my computer, it is recent. I formatted with Gparted, FAT32 images and then resize with Gparted by aligning Mio, and I put at the end of the ext4 1GB.
I do not think I made ​​a mistake. The system during reboot and apparently sees is his manipulation "correctly, after, perhaps a class 10 of this trademark does not? In the tutorial it is stated that should preferably use Class 4 or 6, but I did not find the merchant in the area, as 10.
When I use NAVIONIC, sometimes it works sometimes hang up ...
I also had the wifi crashed which, in short, disappointed.
Advice?
Please, I am "newbie" AND French, excuse my mistakes and my inexperience.
Bests Regards,
Philippe

OK, I've read all buglist and cross my fingers but this was not enought !
What I need is an integrated A2SD to use my huge apps downloaded.
Question, in the process, I just have to download another Rom and test?
About backup, Can I do it with Tinanium or shoud I reinstall all the stuff after ?
I'll check CM7, if this Rom had a A2SD system, OK.
Thanks,
Philippe

[Q] Looking for active XBmod ROM 7720 V 1.01 download link

Here's where I'm at: I have a 32 GB MicroSDHC card I purchased, cracked open my Arrive/GOLD_C and slapped it in. Everything was perfect until about two months ago, when I managed to break the screen on my phone. Long story short, I need to unlock/re-format the SDHC now that I have moved on to Android. There seem to be two ways of doing this:
- A Nokia device/SD equipped camera (Tried many, none have worked as of yet.
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242071
is great, but I don't have access to any of the listed devices.
- A new ray of hope (For me at least) Storage Lock
which I assume I only need a 7/7.5 XBMod ROM to use.
It boils down to this: does anyone know of a working download link for XBmod ROM 7720 V 1.01
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278926
. The link in the post seems to have long been dead, and the .cab for storagelock seems to require a 7.5 ROM with the XBmod cert installed. If anyone does, or knows of an alternative, I'd be very grateful.
