[Q] HD2 ROM update and Radio issues -Plz help

Hi everyone
I got my HD2 an year ago. Its an awesome device and was working fine untill the time I thought of updating the original ROM of the phone. And as there are no official ROM updates in India, so I did this using HardSPL. I update my phone's ROM to "Elegencia GTX - V 2.0 Final WWE". The ROM update was successful. But there were a lot of issues with call reception and sms functionality. The phone use to freeze on receiving any call. On searching a little I found that the issue was the original Radio of my phone which was 2.05.51.05_2 . And so I installed a newer Radio which I downloaded from xda itself. Since then I am facing a lot of problems in the sms functionality of my phone. Now I have tried almost all the updated versions of Radios available in
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
but all in vain. Some radios does not allow me to send or receive sms to some of my friends and some of them freezes the phone on receiving a phone call. Now I am using Radio version 2.11.50.20, there is no problem in this Radio except for some of my friends says that they receive my single message three times and that too only the first part of the sms. And some times I receive a notification "Unable to send message".
I am not technically an expert, but would like to know the issue with my phone. I really dont want to rollback on the original ROM as I want to know the solution rather than always being in a doubt.
Please help me out in this situation. And also let me know in case you need any other info for your convenience to get a better understanding.
I really hope you will help me out.
Thanks

[Q] HTC HD2 | Phone Apk Hanging and Buzzing Issue

Firstly, I have been searching this forum for about 2 hours. I have found a few threads with the same issues, but they are either not relevant or I have tried the solutions within the threads and they have not worked. Also, the threads I have found are a few months old. I have also searched the ROM thread seen below.
ROM: [06 Nov 2011][MAG/cLK] NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.2a (GWK74)(Android 2.3.7)[tytung_r13]
Device: HTC HD2
ROM Installation Method: MAGLDR 1.13
SPL: 2.08.HSPL
When I accept an incoming call, the phone application hangs and after about 10 seconds I get a force close notification. Sometimes this is accompanied with a buzzing sound from my speaker. In some instances I have to remove the battery to restart the phone as it totally freezes.
This happened on Android 2.3.5 (of the ROM linked above) so I upgraded to 2.3.7 (of the ROM linked above) to see if it would fix the issue. It has not. I also wiped the phone and reinstalled the ROM, and again it hasn't fixed the issue.
Also, I do not have Skype installed so it's definetely not that.
I would have posted in the ROM thread but it wouldn't let me.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance. I can provide additional information should it be required.

buzzing HD2
Sometimes it happens on my HD2 on diferent rooms: NexusHD2 3.2, NexusHD2 ICS 1.1, MIUI 1.12.30, MIUI 2.2.17. It is not often. Any sollution?

It's same here! I am starting to think that the problem is with my phone! I tryed meny different ROM and settings...it always the same!
It doing it 2-3 times per day.
How to fix it ?

same problem
I'm using CM9 (v2.8) android 4.0.4 and facing the same problem. I tried many ROMs but can't fix the problem. Also tried some solution on this 4rum but no help until now.
I'm going to throw my HD2.

Same here
I have the same issues with different rom using nand or nativeSD.
1 on 2 receiving call, the phone freezes with a buzzing sound. I must to take the battery out to restart the phone.

same problem
I have the same problem with my HD2!
The phone freezes after I receive an incoming call with a buzzing sound/no sound. Sometimes it shows the error message of com.android.phone process, in other cases I need to remove the battery and restart the phone.
I have tried different kind and version of ROM(for e.g. NexusHD2, MIUI, TouchWizMod v3.0) but the freezing issue is still not solved.
As far as I checked the freezing is not related to any kind of installed software.
If anybody has a solution to this problem please share with me/us. I really do not want to get rid of my HD2.
Thanks in advance.

I have found the solution. The reason why the phone did not work is the Viber application. I uninstalled it a moth ago and thence everything works well. I use the WeChat app instead of Viber and my phone works like a charm.
By the way, a member of the Viber team has commented on this forum that their application does not support any kind of custom ROM currently.

Im facing the same problem,its killing me, its been worst recently ! I cant answer any call on my HD2
this problem happend first time on android 4+ roms,
I tried diffrent roms after that, but still not fixed, anyone can help us to find a solution?!
-----

The phone freezes after I receive an incoming call with a buzzing sound/no sound. Sometimes it shows the error message of com.android.phone process, in other cases I need to remove the battery and restart the phone.

hmm same here, tried some different ROMS - SD (froyo) and NANDs (2 gingerbreads, now ICS), tried these on both of my HD2s, also changed RADIO from 2.15.50.14 to 2.08.50.05 - nothing helps.
sometimes when im getting a call (usually it happens twice a week, some weeks more often, some less), i press the button and the phone/app freezes, sometimes with a buzzing sound.
after that, system doesnt respond normally, on GB sometimes it autorebooted....
also tried without viber AND tried directly after reinstalling the different ROMS with no contacts, original ringtones - also happens there sometimes!
i dont think that could be a hardware problem, because both of my hd2 phones act the same way.....
any solution since that time?

At the moment I have latest Jelly Bean by cotulla, with Cyanogenmod, and when I make a call, the screen is black (turned off) even though I don't have it close to my head and sensor is not covered. When I abort the call, it doesn't respond and stays dark with button panel highlighted for several seconds, and only after I press power button for several times it awakens. The same happens for incoming calls. The phone is not usable as phone with such things happening... That's frustrating.
So, let me sum up what people (and I) have had on the subject:
1. Various Android ROMs were tried and issue is always present.
2. In my case, stock Windows 6.5 has a very similar issue - incoming calls are even ignored! At least I had the described problem after I decided to have an "old" but working phone and reverted to the stock ROM instead of Android. Alas, the phone was still having glitches when answering.
3. We don't know exactly how many HD2 are affected by the issue but it looks like more than 1% which is pretty much to be a serious issue.
I might assume we faced an intermittent hardware issue, that does not always reveal itself, and can only be reproduced after a certain "failure". I think it's hardware dependent because my phone was working fine but suddenly ceased to do that.
I'm very sceptical about fixing this issue for me or other users. It's an obsolete phone and any mass hardware issues that is not reported by manufacturer (btw, could this be checked out?) will scarcely be considered. The whole thing makes me think we just have to switch to our phones are gaming/browsing accessories, since it just doesn't work and the issue is apparently non-trivial to be examined. I would be though glad to provide any information and logs... but who cares? Even cotulla doesn't think HD2 is worth developing any more....

[Q] Problem with making and receiving calls

Hi folks
I have a Nexus S (i9020a). It has stock 4.1.2 Jelly bean from Google (downloaded the stock image and flashed it). It worked fine for over a month.
Suddenly few days back this device got a problem. When I dial any number I can't hear any dialing sounds and even after the call has connected I can't hear the opposite person and the opposite person also can't hear me (The phone still shows as 'Dialing' though it's already connected). The same is true when I answer any call. Both parties can't hear anything.
This is solved by rebooting the phone for the first phone call only. After I reboot, the 1st phone call works fine, then this problem persists for any calls I make/receive until I reboot the phone again.
I tried flashing a different radio but this problem is still there. I tried my sim card on a different phone and it works fine, so the problem is not that too. My 3G data works just fine.
I need this phone for the next few days/weeks (hopefully not months) before my Nexus 4 gets delivered :laugh:
Thanks..
Edit: Modified the title; Probably gave the wrong meaning that the problem is solved.

<bump> Modified the title. Earlier title gave an impression that the problem is solved whereas I still have a problem.

Have you installed any apps which could somehow affect the dialler?
Unless someone else can give you a different advice, I can't think of any other option than do a full wipe and reflash.

I haven't installed any such apps.
Also, I already did a full wipe and flashed the stock image again. The problem is still there.

Don't know what else you could try, sorry mate - hope someone else can help you sort it out!

Thanks for trying. I think I will go to some hardware shop and see if they can figure out..

Try using a headset for making phone calls so that we can identify if it's really the hardware's problem.

I had similar problem when RAM running out. Usually a reboot fix the problem for a bit.
What I did:
1. With Titanium Backup Pro, froze unused RAM hogging system apps, like Google+, Google play magazine,etc
2. Froze or uninstall Facebook, Word with Friends, etc which are resident and hog RAMs .
3. Install marmite kernel, free up more usable RAMs.
Hope it helps you too.

I tried this too but doesn't work...

Try any custom ROM instead of stock ROM and a different kernel too. There could be chances that you've flashed the wrong ROM / radio too.
Sent from my Nexus S

Problem solved.
I went to a hardware store today. The guy said that it's a problem with the 3G service of my carrier (Vodafone India). The moment I enabled the '2G only' option in the Mobile networks settings area, this problem was gone. The technician said that this issue is affecting some people randomly. He said that since 3G service was launched just last year, the networks are not yet capable of handling all kinds of devices (he claims that the bug is so erratic that another Nexus S i9020a may work just fine with the very same bootloader/radio/rom which doesn't make any sense). When I said that 3G service was working fine before, he said that most probably my carrier changed some settings on their side which is causing this issue for me.
I have tried this for 6-8 hours now, making a lot of phone calls and it seems that the issue is gone. It saddens me that I am off 3G for now but at least my phone calls and basic EDGE internet works fine. I will have to work with Vodafone to solve this or simply wait for my new phone (Nexus 4) and hope it won't have the same problem..

Solution of viber mic hijacking at LG P920

Hi All ,
i've got a same problem through a month ago and i finally got solution but first you should know the following facts :
1- When i faced this problem i sent my LG P920 to warranty office and after two weeks i received my mobile with new motherboard because they think its a motherboard problem so they replace my old one with new one but it's appear that it's not the solution because after one day when i setup viber on my mobile after first call the problem back to surface again and the viber hijacking mic again so its not a hardware problem
2- When you do factory reset or new software for mobile that's appear problem still there so it's not a mobile software problem
3- There is no official ICS for mobile till now so don't listen to people who's say that update to ICS because there is no official ICS for it and also it's not a solution and also ICS on lg p920 have slow responsive at all
and after some trails i find the solution and am try it and mobile and viber works fine with all performance and mic works correctly in both
The Solution is :
1- uninstall the viber u have on your mobile from app manager
2- after uninstall viber pull out the battery for 5 sec. and put it again and power on mobile
3 - download this version of viber on your mobile and install it , here is the link of viber version
( http://www.4shared.com/android/VHN25e96/viber.htm )
4- open google play and from it's setting close auto update for apps.
5- do not update viber to any new version if you get notification for update
Congratulations now your viber and mobile works fine without any problems or mic hijacking
Conclusion : the mic hijacking problem is a newer version of viber problem so you should use an older version of viber (link at step 3 )thats all so if you need the newer version of viber u have to wait till this problem may solve in the coming version
Waiting your reply after do it
Thanks to All
