any good or bad comments for ROM 1.66?
is there any way to revert back to the old ROM 1.48 if i would like to?? appreciate if you could share..thanks!!
ROM 1.66 is much better than 1.43/8. It's faster, smoother and has less problems. Besides that, you do not need to install the earlier hoffixes,they are incorporated in 1.66. I use 1.66 now for more than 10 days and had no need to reset the device (except after installing new programs of course).
Hop that helps you in your choice. So, for your other question to revert to 1.48: no need to do that.
I agree with Kuzibri 1.66 is a very stable nice featured ROM which much improves the earpiece volume issue.
Another thread about 1.66 - that's very cool!
Got my HD2 2 weeks ago on a Tuesday that evening upgraded to ROM 1.66 not looked back. I have not encountered any of the problems that others spoke of when the HD2 first came out with earlier ROMs.
I would say go for it.

thanks all for your kind sharing of thoughts...i wld go for it then!!!
Defintely go for 1.66. It's worlds apart from the 1.43 ROM my phone shipped with.
i flash to the 1.66 version .. there were alot error msg pop out .. such as service.exe and device.exe
so is there any problem wit the new rom version ?
isn' better to wait for the 2... version? this rom is known for is afterwards_fixes...
i'm waiting for that one.....think is better....
Good thread. I've been looking hard for a ROM 1.66 review type thread also, but to no avail.
Before I upgrade my ROM, can anyone comment on the picture quality? I remember I installed an htc official update (which was removed after a couple of days) for improving the camera, but all it did was make every picture look way over exposed - I needed to hard reset. I don't want to upgrade to this ROM if it nullifies my camera.
Thanks in advance.

Shameless bump.
No dice???
"Screw you guys, I'm going home."

I lost my XT9 functionality with upgrading to this ROM. It only works with Phone Keyboard mode, in compact and full QWERTY it doesn't work, only the space bar works, no letters, no numbers, no nothing. I posted a thread about this but seems that no one either has encountered this problem or they don't use XT9 and are not bothered by it.
Whichever way, I would like to request if anyone can please post the portion of the their registry so that I can see what is missing or what is different by mine.
Thanks!
And if you don't have any problems with your 1.48, stick with it! It's not worth the update, trust me....

I think the camera works well for a phone camera... its not going to rival Nikon or Canon but the pics I have taken have been clear crisp and has good colour saturation... Using 1.66 has been fine for me... I have been toying with using Dutty's ROM or Merilion... but the need is not so great now that the phone works fine on 1.66...

Thank you!
best upgrade nearly no issues ,no need to flash sh*tty cooked roms
hi guys is there anyone can tell if the htc hd2 is good to buy it or he had alot problems thanks alot
It's hard to say because it seems like a 50/50 thing. Some us don't have ANY problems with it out of the box and for those who did have problems most were fixed by flashing a new ROM. I didn't have a problem with it stock, but after flashing Kumar's ROM it worked sooooo much better and it's faster too. So I say take a chance and return it if it doesn't work out for you because really this phone is AWESOME IMOH!
Hello all, I would like to go back to stock rom after playing with different roms ,my device came with TMOUS_2.10.531.0, would it be save to flash TMOUS_2.10.531.1 that staring to see here in he forums..
Thank you..

I haven't done it, but I believe the answer is yes. There's apparently no noticeable difference between the two.
Under the covers, there are many differences. Probably safe to use either regardless of what your device came with, but they're not the same.
Tmous_2.10.531.0
i was on the 2.10.531.1 and decided to try the earlier rom version. i find the the earlier rom is more stable than later. i also find that i seem to keep a 3g signal longer and doesn't flip from 3g /edge as often.
Dang i cant even Remember What Rom i was on.. anyway to find this out?
Same dilema here. Keep 3.14.531.0 install 3.14.531.1 or cooked ROM 6.5.3+
I recently purchased the t-mobile HD2. My current ROM is 3.14.531.0. I am a HD2 noob but can some help with the questions below. Thank You in advance
- Should I keep 3.14.531.0?
- should I upgrade to 3.14.531.1?
- should I 'upgrade' to wm6.5.3+ or 6.5.x?
I am not t-mobile and will mostly be using this phone on at&t (2G/Edge). I would like to try/use the wm6.5.3 because it better designed for capacitive touch. I am having minor issues with UI elements (cna't select UI elements) because (I think) the capacitive screen is not as precise/dense.
My HD2 has seen better days - the screen is cracked and the micro USB port is not working. It will cost about £120 to get both issues fixed. My question is --- should I get it fixed or move to a "proper" Android phone, is the HD2 still the best there is or do other phones do Android better?

Hi - please can you create a new thread with your question as it does not relate to my original question.
In short the thread for the Android ROM you are wanting to load will have the necessary instructions for flashing it to your phone. AND spend as much time as you can reading and re-reading the variosu threads on how to do this. If you get it wrong you could permanently damage your phone. If you have any specific questions then search the forums for answers, and if you need to ask a new question please start a new thread.
Thanks

Use the search button and don't hijack other people's threads. Are you seriously that stupid?!
@OP, Sadly I would say that it's time to move on. I compared my HD2 to my friend's SGS2 and another friend's Sensation, and they are a lot better. £120 is a bit much though, I got my HD2 brand new from O2 (or rather, my Dad did, I'm only 14) for £187.
Yea I been thinking the same thing, my HD2 has seen better days (Power Button) and thinking about upgrading to the Amaze 4g, bought my wife a Sensation a few months back and its pretty cool, basically the same just a little better specs, so i think it's close to the end, at least for me, had it since launch day.

Yeah I feel the same way, but the end is near, but it will be a great back-up phone. The only reason I haven't upgraded yet is the possibility of the Galaxy Nexus coming to T-Mobile, but regardless, I will be upgrading within the month.
hi,
I really don't know what to do..the only thing I want now is to throw this piece of **** out of my window and buy an iPhone.
I tried more then 5 different roms, many CM9(ICS) and now with CM10(JB- currently this one) and the same *ucking bugs occur at all of these versions
Buttons doesn't light up, camera freeze and crashed the *uck out of the phone, ringtones keeping messing up(ringtone for one contact working for other etc) I don't want and don't need fancy ICS or stupid JB, I JUST NEED THIS PHONE TO WORK.
Not crashing the camera when I need it the most, don't mix the ringtones, and the buttons to work all the time
I understand that you don't own me something, but please, I just don't know what to do, I wasted countless hours on recovering the apps and setting for each rom I tried, and I just don't know what to do.

first of all, please watch your language!
second of all, if the same bugs appear on all roms have you considered that your phone is faulty?
if you made sure the hardware works fine, i recommend you to start from scratch (flash 2.2.2 CEE/nordic SBF; root; install clockworkmod) and flash CM7.2 stable, thats the most stable and fastest rom for now on the defy, and this is with the most funcionality.

Whats the diffrant between bugs in ALL the roms or a phone hardware bug? if it ain't working it ain't working.
I know its the most stable and the fastest, but I'm 95% sure it have the same bugs I'm having(ringtones,buttons doesn't lit, camera crash).
I tried MIUI for change, but its only Gingerbread(?) and don't have my native language (Russian).
There is any other roms to try?
2 options

2 options:
1 - Install CM7.2 stable as @zakoo2 said rr MS2Ginger (suports RU language);
2- Throw your phone out the window and buy an iPhone.
so either pull yourself together, put a little effort and find a solution, or spend a load of money on a crappy, but nice looking phone, your choice.
first, wipe everything (data/cache/dalvik), then reflash a froyo sbf, then install cm7.2 stable.
there are plenty of guides for this in the general section.

So call moto and be ignored lol, go into the dev forum and check the 1st thread.
If you wanted an I phone, why did you buy this? IPhone lovers will always be android haters! unless they have both

Buy Iphone and dont bother ass. ICS and JB is nightly. Want stable tried stable,so easy. CM7 ist good
Please show me where it was solved my problem and many other people.
It has not been resolved, many people have hardware problems with the red lens
go to the development section. There you find a thread with the sbf you need. flash the sbf (link in the thread) and you got the stock rom.
then, the if you got the same errors with the stock rom, your hardware if faulty.
