[Q] 7720 RTM updateable ROM issues - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

I just got done going through the proccess of installing the updateable ROM from XBmod and YukiXDA can continue to have issues with the buttons.
The "Readme" file says the button layout should be the same as on all the other ROMS with the green button being the camera button. So far with using both versions of the ROM they provided I have had no luck. The green button doesn't do anything but activate voice dialing when held down for a second.
Can anyone help me please?

You have a soft button in camera, why do you need a hard button ...it can sometimes unnecessarily get switched on in pocket
Sent from my Schubert using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

Yeah see that. I was hoping for the hard button. Oh well, Thanks, I think the fact that it was 2:30am (hour # 20 of my day) I just wasn't paying attention.

I did have one other big problem. Once I updated to 7720, the phone would continuously reboot itself. It wasn't just a shutdown and restart, it would revert back to it's initial bootup settings. I wouldn't have to set up the phone but it would wipe any changes that I made to it (ie: apps downloaded, apps pinned to the start screen, etc...).
I followed the steps as to a "T", has anyone else had this problem or is there possibly something I can do to fix it?

download cab file from here http://xboxmod.sylvester20007.com/cabs/keymapping/
in first txt file you have layout so pick one that you like and update
it worked for me

Help - cannot uninstall HTC kybd

Hi...
I have installed the HTC Kybd and I cannot removed the program. It takes very long to uninstall and then just hang....Any expert out there?
No expert?.
Then how to flash the ROM?
Hi
The trick is to be patient. On mine it took over 5 mins to uninstall, but it did uninstall eventually. Also ensure that it is not the active keyboard before you uninstall.

Hello! I suggest doing a hard reset on your device to how it was originally. However, do check your ROM version. The latest upgrade for X1 is v2.8.11.7. If your ROM is older than this and would like to do a hard reset, I would suggest that you do a upgrade of the software instead. This will overwrite all user data. The upgrade can be found here:
HTML:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/softwaredownloads/detailed/updateservice/x1?cc=sg&lc=en
Hard reset:
1. turn off the phone
2. hold down the two silver buttons under the screen and the power button at the same time
3. wait 3 seconds then release the power button
4. you should see a white screen with blue writing saying press (R) to restore or space to cancel
5. press R on the keyboard the phone and the phone will restore to the original settings
Remember to back up your data before doing a hard reset. All user data will be erased. Hope it helps.

Opera wont load - Invalid Signature

Hi all
Every time I try to load my Opera browser, it spits out an error saying "Invalid Signature". Nothing more, nothing less.
The only things I have installed, are HD Tweak and a Divx player.
How can I fix this? Will I need to reinstall Opera? and if so, where can I find the download for it? I've received no software with the phone (I did get it new) and google isn't helping me either.
Thanks!
I have the same problem....
.... please help!!!

Hey... I got mine working but didn't really have a fix for it. I just backed up everything onto my PC and did a hard reset. Solved the issue.
If you wanna try it:
1. Turn off your device
2. Hold down the volume up AND volume down buttons
3. While holding them down, press the power button but continue holding down the volume up and down buttons.
4. Eventually this screen will pop up with a warning message. You can then let go of the volume buttons.
5. Press the volume up button to confirm the hard reset.
Just note that this will complete erase everything from the device and it will be restored to the same status as a brand new device - all settings, contacts, software, files you had will be gone. So be sure to back up everything!!!!
Hi guys
I just ran into this issue.
What I did was to remove
/windows/Opera9
/windows/OperaL
and Opera loads fine again.
To play safe, you could rename the 2 files above to something else and see if it works for you too!

Touch Screen Stopped Working

Hi guys,
My Mrs. Orange SanFran has all of a sudden decided it doesnt want it's screen touched anymore. All the hard buttons are working and can not see any other issues. Seems there are several people who have experienced it but it seems to resolved itselfon a restart but her's isn't, no matter how long I take the battery out or pressing the reset under the battery cover I can't use the screen making it useless.
Any ideas? I stuck a custom Rom of 2.2 on it when first got it but can't remeber which one, maybe modaco Kitchen R12 Rom.
Cheers
Reboot to recovery, Wipe both Dalvik and normal cache, and restart. If that doesn't help, do a factory reset / wipe data, and restart. If that doesn't help re-install the rom.
Thanks for the tip, but I tried to enter recovery by holding down volume key when powering up but a screen breifly loaded that had the small text "android" written upsidedown but then just goes on loop of the screen and the standard screen, can't do anything.
Holding up volume whilst powering on doesn;t do anything and because I can't use the touch screen I can't access any recovery apps through the phone OS.
It's weird cause I've used to recovery mode on phone boot before as first ROM didn't work, so I know the recovery module worked before, no idea why not now. :-s
Could be either bad flash/root or faulty hw. Google "de-bricking a ZTE Blade".
Thanks again. Came across a very thorough article on modaco but unfortunately the phone won't do anything than a normal startup when holding the up volume or up and menu, so can't try any of the suggestions.
The volume buttons do work though as moved the volume in the OS
Just to be sure: you did first press & hold the volume down button, and then press & hold the power button? You have to hold them both down until the recovery menu pops up. I can take even 10 seconds or more.
If everything fails, try TPT flash. It should solve if there is no hardware issue.

the loding bar just blinks for 1 sec and says restore... completed press volup to boot
I press up and it dose'nt seam like the restore process is working!
becuae my dots on teh boot logo are blue and stock settings would be red!
if im not mistaken!
the first time you boot mango the dots and color tiles are red!
so...???
so confused!
If you've activated "find my phone" on SkyDrive, go to https://devices.live.com. Select your phone in the list, then Find My Phone. That takes you to a page where, among other things, is an option entitled "Erase my phone". This is a factory reset. You'll lose all your data, but you'll get your phone back.
(Been there, done that.) Hope this helps.
nope!

Advanced config 1.4 broke my xaps!
After checking the enable wifi n and prevent re-lock buttons in "tweaks" and rebooting, all my xaps don't work!
It happened with 1.3 too and I posted this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275303
Have since tried to send unlock_remove.cab then unlock.cab as XBmod suggested but no joy. Had to go back to restore point and reload apps, music etc.
I have posted this on Schap's site.
Points to note; If everything is working fine with you, send any cab using (B)ackup, it is your friend. And don't try to enable wifi n or prevent re-lock using Advanced Config.
Edit; confirm the prevent re-lock as culprit

Try to reset your phone to factory default using phone buttons and then restore with Zune (or with WP7 Update Cab Sender).
If you can turn off the phone do it. For unresponsive or frozen phone, remove the battery and put it back again after few seconds.
1. Press Volume up button and hold then press Volume Down button and hold and then press the power button (briefly) to switch the phone on.
2. Keep holding the volume up and volume down buttons until you see a reset screen option.
3. Now follow the instructions that will show up on your mobile screen to factory reset your phone.
If it does not help, flash another ROM (official or custom). But you must understand, that all your information on phone will be erased and you would not be able to restore with existing Zune backup!!!

Try to flash another ROM. Maybe yor restore files at phone are damaged (it is my opinion, don't know about restore technique).
I have read about problem with SD card, but there were another symptoms.
