Hello,
I don't think anyone has yet posted this problem, but I would like to ask for help, maybe someone has found a way around it. I would like to have my original WINMO 6.5 booting in NAND on my HTC HD2, and then go to the file manager and boot the Android 4.2.1 JB from Clrcad and Haret. So far everything is OK, but the big problem is that however I try to set up the APN to get my 3G internet, it is not responding. When I remove the NAND WINMO6.5 form the telephone, and run the SD card android 4.2.1 JB via Magldr, everything including the APN settings work. Is there some incompatibility with the WINMO6.5 (possibly the radio or sonething else) which prohibits the APN's working in the Android system? Thnks very much for any help.

Well, bought SPV E650, de-branded and reflashed into official HTC rom, got it unlocked. Ok, put some games on
Now, from my past experience in modding/tweaking electronic gadgets i know, that there is bound to be some sort of "better" way of doing things than that of "official releases".
So my question as a complete n00b in WM, PPC and smartphones is - what do you fo first thing you get your hands on S710 ?
At the moment i'm running HTC official 1.34.405.1 ROM. Are there any better ones ? custom ? faster ? whatever ?
Well first thing to do is read over the Vox wiki page. You can find a link to it in my sig. Learn how the phone works and get comfortable with upgrading and stuff. I'm currently running Dr. Gonzo's windows 6.1 rom which, IMHO, is much better than winmo 6.0. Check it out and see if you like it. You can always downgrade to the HTC official rom if you wish to do so.
I have some stuff on the phone flash at the moment. If i reflash rom will it all be erased ? I'm interested in Java apps/games that i have installed. How do i un-install them so that i have a copy of that for later reinstall after flashing (where are installed java apps, midlets, kept ?)?
Getting an mSD card today, but will store stuff on my pc for time being. I just want to try WM6.1 (preferably without losing my stuff already on the phone.)...
yes everything will be erased when you reflash.
you need to have the .jar files for installing them again.
Like reebzor I'm currently running Dr. Gonzo's Windows Mobile6.1 v1.1 rom and I find it much better than Windows Mobile6. Unfortunately everything that you have got on your phone will be erased when you re flash the ROM. If you have got phone numbers on your phone, and SMS messages that you want to keep then download a a copy of Jeyo Mobile companion, it's not free but the time limited trial will do to backup your contacts and SMS messages that you have got on your phone prior to re flashing and will also do to alow you to restore your contacts and SMS messages back to your phone after re flashing your phone.

Hi, ive flashed a few handsets before (wallaby x2, alpine and a wizard) and had no problems but for some reason cannot even get off the first hurdle with my t-mobile vario iv and cant even unlock the dam thing to flash a custom rom! ive looked at post after post and downloaded so many programs like hard spl and nothing works. the programs ether wont even open or they fail half way through the process but havent bricked my phone so far (fingers and toes crossed!) please could someone help me with what unlocking software i need, what radio rom and main rom i should be using. Really i would like to try a standard wm6.5 rom and then try custom roms after but like what nrg have done if stock is not avaliable. its model is RAPH300 part no- 99HFP013-00
my current rom version is 1.69.110.8 WWE
my current radio version is 1.02.25.19
protocol version 52.33.25.17U
my email is [email protected] if you prefer to help via email
thanks in advance everyone, steve.
Anyone out there?
Ensure you have hard SPL'd your handset before trying to flash ANY custom roms
before you do that, see if there is an updated T-Mobile rom, see if that update will work, if that update works without any glitches then it'll be alright, if you get an error with an official update then possibly something wrong with either your pc setup or the handset
if your using vista, make sure you've got the windows mobile device centre installed, if not, you need to go to microsoft and download it
if using windows xp, make sure you've got the latest activesync installed.
ensure the cable your using is not faulty by trying it with a different cable
and good luck!

thanks for trying to help, have you ever read something over and over and repeatedly missed something in it? i think thats what i did wrong. i did not see the bit about removing my sim card even though i had read the noobs guide again and again. removed my sim and bosh, spl worked! then everything else was a breeze and i am now running the energy 3.0 wm6.5 rom! havent flashed the radio yet but will probably do that today. the energy rom is a vast improvement on my stock 6.1 rom in many areas and seems to have improved camera performance quite a lot (not quality) and the menus are going to be great once i have got used to the totally different interface. does anyone have any sugestions on other roms tha may be better than this one?
Hi there
Glad to hear you got it working!
I am personally using NATF's WM6.1 lite touch pro rom as all i look for in a rom is stability as i actually use my phone for phone/text purposes and there is nothing more annoying than a hanging phone when your trying to quickly reply to a text message!
Hi!
My Htc Hd2 is only able to boot Windows.
What I have done
1. Flashed with a stock rom, LEOIMG.nbh wich I found here somewhere
- Everything went just fine, I had Android on NAND and went back to Windows
2. Flashed HSPL with mskip guide
"[TUT] Flashing your First GSM USA 1024LEO ONLY!! (For Noobs)" [1024mb]
- Everything went just fine, I checked the phone and it had HSPL 2.08
3.a Installed Android "Cyanogen CM7.1 (Gingerbread 2.3.4)" [AmeriCanAndroid]
- Everything went just fine, I followed the instruction carefully, it shut down after the installation and i pressed the power button to boot, but Windows booted and there was no option for Dual boot
( I have a Scandisk SD card, 8 gig, formatted before the installation, and after the installation I have ~7.5gig, ie. 1.3gig used )
3b. Rebooted, but still Windows.
4. Read that Radio Rom might have something to do with it, if its old.. So flashed a new Radio rom [Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14**] I think I had 2.08.50 something before.
- Everything went just fine.
5. Rebooted but still Windows
I am starting to think I have missed a step, perhaps something wich was obvious to the writers for the guide.. Iam very new to android, recived my phone just yesterday.
What my phone have now [Software information ]
Code:
OS version
5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)

Do I need any program to be able to dual boot or does the android version I installed include it?
Appreciate any help!
You need to go into the Android folder through Windows, run Clrcad.exe once (nothing happens), then run HaRet.exe to boot into Android.
Thank you for your reply!
Is this something I have to do everytime I reboot the phone?
If so, is there a way to make hd2 always boot the android?
Thanks!

Yeah mate, you will have to as long as you are running an SD build.
You can get an app that will autorun at Windows boot and present you with a choice of which OS to run, but I can't remember what it's called. You should be able to find it somewhere in the HD2 SD forum.
The only way to circumvent this is to install a NAND build, but you lose Windows.
Thanks for your help, everything works just fine and I couldn't be happier
I would love to have NAND, but I think I wait a bit and enjoy 2.3.4
I just have one question, the Radio Rom that you flash, If I wanted to try out another one, do I just flash over the old one?
Thanks!

My pleasure. That's right, just flash the new radio over the old one under Windows. Make sure it's a .50 radio otherwise it won't work with Android.
Good luck!

Why don't you post the EXACT steps you used to get where you are? Where did you start from (firmware, rom)?
Perhaps try Google Translate as well...
Hello everybody,
I´ve got a Rogers Captivate i896 with Firmware version 2.2 (stock Rogers firmware(Canada), flashed 1 year ago, upgrading from 2.1 stock)
Kernel version 2.6.32.9
Modem version UXJL1
Rooted, unlocked and 1 click Lagfix
I´m on Rogers network.
Problems:
1) Many applications stop working once updated. IM+ version 4.xx works, anything higher crashes on start. Same story happens with LOTS of apps from Playstore, so I´m forced to be careful when updating apps. This is becoming super-annoying.
2)Recently, installed DROIDVPN and TUN.KO installer to use Dell voice on an Unlimited Mobile Browsing plan(crippled data for WAP browsing). It worked beautifully for 1 day, now starting DROIDVPN or TUN.KO makes the phone restart.
3)I´d like to get rid of built-in garbage, most of which I do not use, to have more control over running apps, especially those that hang themselves into start-up.
4) I´d like to get better battery life. I use my phone more and more, I´ve got 2 batteries and and external charger, and yet i sometimes have trouble getting to the end of the day without my phone dying/I]
Solutions.
I imagine that the only explanation for apps that simply refuse to work is that they are designed for newer Android systems. This happened with Skype that didn´t work with Eclair, but does work with 2.2.
Should I upgrade to ICS?
I have some experience flashing, yet I´m far from an expert. What´s the most fail-safe plan of actions? Would the following work:
1)Backup everything using TitaniumBackup
2)Install custom bootloader that would allow me to flash install.zip from external SD card
3)Choose a custom ROM based on user feedbacks, like Cyanogen MOD.
4)Restore all the apps
5)Experiment with different modem firmware to see which gives me best performance
I no longer have time to tinker around in the dark, so I´d like to have a plan before I get started. Any input on the possible solutions to the problems I´m experiencing?
Thank you in advance.

Just a question: why haven't you upgraded to Rogers official GB?
And BTW, ICS is a massive improvement over 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.
I have a great experience with this ICS Rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522881
But there are others that are just as good I'm sure.
My 2 cents:
Stay away from ICS. It has the ability to damage your SD card.
Use this post to upgrade to gingerbread. Then use the utility in my signature to get root and cwm. Then choose a GB based ROM that suits your needs. May I suggest Legend?
¨Use this post to upgrade to gingerbread. Then use the utility in my signature to get root and cwm¨
Wouldn´t it be wiser to get clockwork mod before any upgrading just in case things go bad? I vaguely remember using clockworkmod last time I dealt with flashing, isn´t it a loader that allows you to load install.zip from SD card? Or would flashing a new system wipe out the mod as well?
How exactly can ICS damage SD card. Are you talking about the external SD or the built-in SD storage in the phone?
I´ve read partially the threads on Legend and Android Open Kang Project - captivatemtd - Milestone 6. Both sound pretty good. As far as you guys know, which rom is known to give best battery life?
If you're going to upgrade to a custom rom that is Gingerbread or Higher, you will need the Gingerbread bootloaders. That is why I say to go to stock Gingerbread first.
ICS can cause the Encryption Unsuccessful bug as seen here. It will cause you to lose all access to the built-in SD storage. It doesn't happen to everyone, but when it does, you'll wish you had heeded my advice.
