I know that HD2 isn't a WP7 so I don't know how this works. But you will have to hard reset your phone. After hard reset, when in the start up it asks you to log in to Windows Live, select 'not now' or 'later'.
Finish start up process. Once the phone has booted up, restart.
One it's restarted, go to marketplace and try downloading PacMan because that's smallest game that can be downloaded over 3g. It will ask you to log in using live ID. Log in now. After that you should be able to download whatever you need to as far as its less than 20mb.
If that doesn't help then let me know.

HD2 Sync

I've d/l 4.5 into my PC but I can't sync into my HD2. OK in my house I can only wi-fi data , I have to go outside to make phone calls on network. When I go to active-sync it sends me to MS like I'm on the PC & it gives me the interpretation to d/l 4.5 into the HD2. What the heck am I missing? Help!
Pls. Someone point me in the right direction,so I can sync my HD2 to my PC ,pls. Thanks ahead of time.
Okay, try uninstalling activsync. Re-download and re-install Activsync (remember for XP only, Vista and Seven get WM Device Center) then go through the setup. Plug in your HD2 via USB it should connect. Then, press the syn button at the top right corner I believe. It's been a while since I've used it since i'm now using Android but I believe it should still be the same!
Sorry for being late (sleep) Thank You that worked. It's been awhile & I thought I thought I overlooked something but it's good to know windows still works the same. If I didn't get this phone for a penny I'd be working with something else. Again Thank You.

[Q] HTC Mozart From Telstra stuck in a Demo mode??

Hi,
I've receieved a HTC Mozart as an evaluation device from Telstra for my company, but when I boot it up it does not seem to go through the normal setup process.
It boots and when it is pre-populated with some data such as contacts, text messages, emails, calander entries, etc. I have hard reset the device and it comes back to the same place after it goes through the loading process, at no stage am i prompted to enter my windows live ID or anything like that and there is already an example account present.
Is this some sort of demonstration mode the phone is set in???
Thanks,
Ryan
i would suggest contacting telstra? maybe they sent you a demo model by mistake? though to be honest if this was that case that would be one of the most funniest things they could do to a customer. it was just halloween? didn't you give them a treat?

We all know Sol took all the treats with him when he left LOL
Everytime i unlock the phone it get a text message that tells me welcome to windows phone 7 and the screen saver is a demo that says 'touch to begin' and I am unable to use my windows live login as there is an account called [email protected] that cannot be deleted and cannot be changed.
Try flashing the std ruu package from the mozart forum? Might have a demo rom on it.
Are you able to hard reset it?
If not then contact Telstra and they should replace it.
How do I install the generic RUU on the mozart? I have been a blackberry user previously.
Mate, dont bother, take it back to telstra.

It Would seem not all people actually read the questions in these forums very well - having acquired one of these STORE DEMO ROM Mozarts as well I know exactly what you are saying - Mate - Check my post Under the Telstra ROM in the ROM section of Mozart Development Forum. Should be around post 3.
This is how I reflashed/unlocked from store demo mode and now have a fully functioning HTC Mozart.
Should help you out.
I believe i purchased a store demo HTC Surround, as it does exactly what you describe your mozart doing. I hope soon there will be a way to flash the rom because my battery dies from all the bogus updates and the screensaver or splash screen. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, anyone here please plz plz plz help us out with this annoying thing ever. ....
GREAT GREATLY Appreciate ... it makes me piss off !!!
It's amazing how many of these demo phones make it out in the real world.

Through work aquired a Mozart with Telstra Demo(Store) Rom. Very furstrating as it wouldnt hold settings and kept playing that damn video.....
Downloaded this rom (following the links from here and trying a few download mirrors until I found one that worked)
Turned off Phone
Held Volume Down Key while Pressing Power Button (This turns the phone on and launched Bootloader)
Connected to PC Waited about 5 minutes while Windows auto detected the drivers and installed what it needed
Right Mouse clicked on the downloaded Rom and selected "Run as Administrator"
Followed the prompts.
****NOTE**** When it got to 10% the phone rebooted - LET IT!!!!! DO NOT TOUCH IT DO NOT DISCONNECT IT - Just wait -The computer will redetect and about 10 Min later VIOLA - All sorted nice and clean WP7 HTC Mozart (with a with Telstra One Hub - which aint that bad) - Whacked the 3 Sim card in - Downloaded Connection Setup Wizard from market place and a few minutes later was sending and receiving MMS etc
Thanks for the ROM

LG Optimus M Questions/help

Hi all,
Before I start I want to mention that I searched the forums as best possible to figure this out but I've had no luck.
My brother-in-law just got an Optimus M, from metropcs, last night. When he synced his contacts to facebook, he lost the ability to edit them and all the phone numbers were lost. Apparently, the facebook data overwrote the existing contact info. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it? As it stands, he can't make calls from the contact list and he can't edit/add/delete contacts without going through facebook.
Another problem he's noticed is that he got an error when he first connected the phone to his laptop via usb. After that error, now his computer doesn't even detect the phone. Is there a way to fix that?
A final question I have, what is the best way to root this phone? I'm used to working with the Evo, which has it's own forum. It's a little trickier to find relevant info for this phone. My search-fu will have to get much stronger, I think.
Thanks all!

2. Install it, and while the phone is DISCONNECTED open the program.
3. Select English.
4. Next, on the main window choose to install the USB driver, and choose LGm690 as the model number.
5. Wait while the app downloads and installs 4 or 5 separate drivers.

[Q] MMS problem with HTC Surrond on T-Mobile USA Network

Recently unlocked an AT&T HTC Surround to use it with my T-Mobile service and everything works fine except I can't receive or send MMS messages.
Can someone PLEASE PLEASE help me? I've googled and search everywhere and all I get is to download the Connection Setup App but apparently it doesn't exist anymore?
Also, I saw something about using Mango? But I'm confused about that.
For some reason, HTC has pulled the Connection Setup app from the marketplace (no official reason that I've seen as to why). They haven't revoked it from phones where it's already installed, but if you don't have it already you can't just install it from the HTC Apps section anymore.
If your phone is dev-unlocked (and interop-unlocked if on Mango), you can sideload Connection Setup and it might work. If not, I can't help you. Sorry!
How do I dev-unlock and interop-unlock on Mango? I downloaded Mango but have no idea how to use it on my phone.
Right now my phone is just unlocked so I can use my t-mobile sim card and service on it. I don't know what that is called?
From what I've heard is you just hard reset it and it should be fine?
@wedbaby: If you phone is on Mango already, there's no known way to interop-unlock an HTC phone without rolling it back to pre-Mango. Dev-unlock can be done by getting an official developer account ($99 unless you're a student) or through ChevronWP7 Labs (http://labs.chevronwp7.com) for $9. It has nothing to do with SIM-unlock (what you did to your phone already).
MMS issue on HTC Surround for TMobile solved
As I got no help from TMobile support team on MMS problem I had to find my own way . Here it goes:
1. Go to settings.
2.Choose cellular.
3.Set Data transmission to on.
4.Roaming- setting does not metter.
5.Here comes the trick: Network selection has to be manual, manually select TMobile.
6.Enjoy
I have three HTC Surrounds in my family. All of them have DFT Mango rom installed, and they are unlocked (sim and dev).
Let me know if it works for you guys.
I purchased an (at&t unlocked)HTC SURROUND but I am on the tmobile network....SOOOOOO...I called tmobile...Who told me that ''they couldnt promise me that they could help me and if the info they give me was gonna work.''......But their info actually did get my HTC to sending and recieving MMS messages INSTANTLY!... So I want to share this with you hoping that it will solve your issues also.....
1. From the MAIN screen..Tap MARKETPLACE...
2. Tap HTC APPS
3. Scroll down and tap CONNECTION SETUP (wait a few seconds and an INSTALL icon should pop up at the bottom of the screen)
4. Tap INSTALL
5. You will see the screen jump back and you will see CONNECTION SETUP dowloading to the phone
6. Once it dowloads...Tap CONNECTION SETUP
7.Tap the bottom of the screen to pull out a pop-up
8. Tap MANUAL SELECT
9. Tap COUNTRY and select UNITED STATES
10.Tap CARRIER and select TMOBILE US
11. Tap the ''check mark''
12. Once it shows that it has configured to the network...power your phone off n then bck on...
THEN TRY AND SEND URSELF A MESSAGE!!!...HOPE IT WORKS FOR YOU!!!
Short version: "Use the Connection Setup app". You might not have noticed, but when this thread was posted that app wasn't available in the marketplace (the OP specifically mentioned it). Thanks for necroposting, though!
Wow!!!!...thanks...smh... I apologize for givn a step by step set-up!!!...smh
And there is availability of a xap to install? And not found in the market
Connection Setup shows up in the market just fine for me... are you not on an HTC phone?
It's under the HTC Apps section.

[Q] help with using adb?

Hello, sorry to but this here in the Q/A area. I have been searching for answers for a few weeks now dealing with using adb on my htc inspire. I have found files for doing it and all but nothing saying it will work with my htc inspire. I down loaded the latest htc sync from htc web site, plug my phone in and it dose not detect my phone. I have read that I need drivers for my phone on computer but, nothing I have tried works. Could some one either point me to the files that will work with my inspire, sorry to ask to be spoon feed this and all but nothing I try has worked. thanks a bunch.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com...p/thread/4120f8ff-ae6c-437f-a40d-8d48794d9841 information on how to fix the issue i had if any one else has the same problem..
The drivers should come with installing HTC Sync. Are you merely downloading it or also installing it?
umm installing it i guess, i downloaded the sync installer and it installed sync. i just uninstalled every thing and going to try it again.
I had the the same problem have to you tried connecting to another pc or say a car stereo for disk drive?

ok i can connect the phone to computer as a hard drive and such, but i plug it in to use sync and i get drivers can not be started in device manager?
when ever i select htc sync on phone i get that driver error. almost like the drivers I have on computer are not the right ones. but I look for the drivers and can not find any other then what came with the htc sync i got off htc web site.
You installed Sync with the phone unplugged, right?
yea i did, its almost like the drivers are wrong or corrupted or something. every time i plug phone in and click on phone htc sync the drivers do not load right.
Windows 7 or 8?
vista.

k, cool here it is. I plug my phone into my laptop, the meassage pop up down at the bottom right corner saying installing drivers. then it said needed to restart computer to finish with the install. I did that, and plug phone back in and the android drivers on laptop fail to start. I can give you the exact error i get when I go into device manager, and click on the android driver, but i cant right now I am at work. i have tried this with severial custom roms, even custom roms that are stock. Right now though i am running my original rom that came with phone, wich its not updated. Its the rom my phone came with what two years ago. I was able to connect phone to computer back then thought i would try that but no joy.
my fire wall is turned off and defender is turned off, i have turned off the setting asking me if i want to run a progrme or not, i forget what it was called and also i have not tried that yet. found it under security settings disabled it and turned off computer was going to try it tonight when i get home.
xZeroMancerx, you have any info on this that can help bud?
just thought I would add some more info. tonight I tried to install HTC sync again to see if I could get it to work. would not install windows something 11 prog also when it asked me to restart computer I waited for a min and it gave me the blue screen of death.
**
ok well i finally got it to work. turns out their was a major issue with my computer. was stuck on down loading sp1 from Microsoft even. I had to down load some files to fix vista, and re-download sp1 manually and install it. but sync is now working like a charm.
