I've had this problem for awhile now, and i was just thinking it was some 'quirk' with the T-mobile ROM, but recently i've installed the new ROM, and i'm getting the exact same problem, so i really am confused now :/
(I haven't installed any apps, or hacked the device in anyway btw)
Basically, i'll be composing a standard TXT, and the brightness on the screen will go to maximum (as if it's been plugged into charge) then when i come to pressing 'send' it does nothing. Then i close the messaging app, then whatever i try to load, it comes up with a 'this program is unsigned' error, all the txt on the screen does white, and basically everything looks screwed.
If i go into task manager and close the messaging app, then the screen goes back to its normal brightness, but the application errors still continue.
The only way to get around this, is by rebooting the device, but then once it's reloaded, it seems to randomly loose my latest TXTs/e-mails!
Really starting to annoy me now!
Does anyone have ANY Idea what might be causing this, or experienced this before?
Any help appreciated!
Thanks
*bump*
No one else had a similar problem?
OK and another thing ive noticed, when i go to the lock options, even if i type in an incorrect PIN, or even if i click 'ok' it just bypasses the lock screen! How s**t is that!
I've got no idea what's up with this phone, but i'm really pissed off with it now, i'm sending it to t-mobile for their engineers to look at, but im 99% sure that they'll run a few simple tests on it, and declare that it's totally fine, then send it back to me... GRRRRRRRR :evil:
hey same thing happening to me too.
mine too sometimes goes to full brightness while composing SMS. If u then switch off the phone(by power button), it comes up with a message box asking for driver. In the end, i hv to reboot the device.
And the poor part is that it doesnt happens all the times. This has started happening to since I have upgraded to latest imate ROM(I have O2 Exec). I had similar problem with the latest Qtekk ROM.
The only thing i d not installed was 'ms_.nbf' from both of the ROMs,which is actually represent the 'extended rom' of HTC devices.

Ahh, well i'm glad im not the only one!
I'm going to assume it's a hardware issue..... possibly..... because ive had the exact same problem on the past 2 t-mobile ROMs. So annoying :S
why dont u give a try to other ROMs like imate, qtekk. May be, you do away with this 'annoying' problem somehow

Well i've had problems with the past 2 T-mobile ROMs, so i'm thinking that it's not really an issue with the software.. but i really dont know. Have you fixed the problem, or are you still getting it?

Now, from past 2 days,this has not happened. yay
so far, so good
Hmmmm interesting
How frequently did you have the problem before? + can you keep me updated if you get the same problem again on this new ROM? Thanks

I used to suffer from this problem at least 2-3times a day. And it was very frustrating too.
Till now, not a single problem with latest qtekk ROM, FABULOUS is the word for it !!
No problem at all till now. Popper, you should give it a try now

Hmmm I might give that a go. Which ROM contains all the network setting information? Was that the "ms_.nbf" file you mentioned?
Thanks
yes, its the ms_.nbf which contains the network settings. In other words, it the one, which represents the extended rom of your device

All, I just repeated my flashing of the last official upgrade posted on Oct 19th 2010 for the HD2 in the HTC web page, Support area. It makes the unit go TERRIBLY SLOW ALL THE TIMES!!, the memory consumption can arrive up to 90% with NO APPLICATION OPEN!!!!!!!! IT IS A DISASTER!! I think that if HTC see a forum here it will pay attention and remove that upgrade from web page. At least for the Chezck region. The phone said it had an amount of memory free when you installed programs, but when you went to see the value in the About area, the numbers were very different. I just moved back to the previous version.
you have hspl installed still, would be my guess.
if not, do a hard reset and start over. perhaps even flash it again.
Sir 90% of the problems on the latest stock Rom 3.14, isn't the fold of Device/Rom
But the user!
Stock Rom 3.14 isn't compatible with HSPL.
Is this a problem of HTC??? No!!!
Because this is a product create by users not support by HTC.
I've been using it for2 wks and I find it extremely stable and very fast. So except for some bugs n issues that I've already reported to HTC hoping for a hotfix soon (lack of slide down menu and inability to use other phone features during a phone call, poor radio reach/higher battery drain being a couple of ones that bother me the most), it's worth giving it a try if you want a speedy and crash free experience for a while.
Btw, in my case, the upgrade was from stock ROM 1.66, and no HSPL/cooked Roms ever installed.
Tethering with Rom 3.14?
Does the new rom permit tethering via Tools/Internet Sharing?

Hi mandel4026,
I wonder why do you doubt the 'Tethering' option in the HTC official ROM upgrade.
The HTC website mentions:
'Tethering:
* Internet Sharing through USB or Bluetooth
* Wi-Fi Router'
as it's specification. I believe that they wouldn't turn-off the feature this ways through a ROM upgrade.
mandel is worried that he thinks since tmobile will charge seperately for tethering now, the new rom upgrade for tmobile will have the function bundled to tmobile applications and not as default in device tools like in roms elsewhere outside the US...i think it may not be the case, mandel

I have updated to 3.4 and on the whole it works great but I also have the issue that in a call there is no slide down menu as in the prvious and none of the functions work - not even bringing up the keypad or putting it on speaker!!
Has anybody found a fix for this or do we need to wait for a hotfix from HTC??

slide down menu in call can be shown/hidden by using bsb tweaks

no, not yet. watch this page

phone screens work perfectly for me, speaker buttons and keypad much easier to access without that slide down panel
just installed it....will see how slow it is

Ho! that's really stable then
Minor issues, who wants to use the phone features or bother about radio or battery efficiency??
I see that the HTC support are still doing good...
PS: do yourself a favor, replace their "romgarbage" and try some on this forum.
I had Artemis 29 for months with nearly no issues. It also solved all HTC rom issue I had!

hi guys, i have the same problem with memory and another strange problem is, i cannot install some of my medical programs. Is there anyway to restore the old HSPL? or any other solution. I tested some of the customized and they were unstable, so i prefer to use the stock rom? so any solution for HSPL restoring?

Ok, I gotta admit I use another phone for calls usually, son HD2 isn't my primary phone for that matter.
I'm still on the fence about cooked Roms, I believe they aren't bug free either and besides, I'm worried about software conflicts (?), so I'm not sure. Not to mention all the hassle if ever needed to revert to stock roms. I guess a bit of 'bricking' phobia too.
Hi,
I seem to have noticed a problem in all gingerbread builds.The lock screen after some time doesnot respond the first time you slide but will do so on the second try.This is particularly true when you use the phone after 10-15 minutes of locking or more.
Is any one else also facing this as I dont see anybody else mentioning this

Not experienced this in any build for a long time...
Are you using the recomended radio - This seems to be the best for most Android Builds - Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14
If it's not the Radio - it might be an idea to Task29 and start over...
Good Luck!
Cheers

hey ansar, nothing about unlocking tmobile version??
Okay.. this is driving me nuts.
I have the TMOUS HD7 synced with Zune and the ROMUpdateUtility is not able to connect to the phone.
I've tried this with Windows 7 and XP computers... both with admin and non-admin accounts.
Any idea what I'm missing?
Turn of the phone.
Then Hold power button and volume down.
You will enter the bootloader.
Wait till it says on the bottom USB and
Then launch the update app
Thank you for the tip! For whatever reason, all I saw was "Serial" the first time I went into the bootloader. It came up "USB" this time so I have it flashed now... thanks again
Dear ansar, pls kindly check ur download link, i can download ur rom from this link. If u can, upload ur rom to mediafire. Tks
Just an FYI, this new radio greatly improves battery life, but for me it added a major bug. When talking to someone the screen actually times out and if its been like two minutes and you pull the phone away to hang up, the proximity sensor doesn't register because the phone is "sleeping"... Flashing back to original tmous fixes, its a shame because i was getting like 5 hrs extra life on battery.

I've actually been having that issue with the older version (and this is my 2nd HD7 as well with the same issue). The proximity/light sensors turn the phone on/off during a call properly, but after a minute or two of talking, the phone no longer turns on when I pull it away from my face. I don't know if this is by design or a bug.
Also: Is this just a radio update? Or is there more to it than this? Software? Updated WP7?

Hi
It is present to all phones, at least for those i tested of.
A work around for me was the change of screen time-out setting in lock & wallpaper.
This version improves both OEM and Radio firmware.
Regards, ansar.
So is this then the latest ROM for the T-Mobile US HD7?
Yes, it's the newest. Also it improves battery life greatly. After flashing back to original and back to this one i've noticed that the proximity lock bug during phone call doesn't happen any more, seems random for when it happens on new flashes.

I was able to install this ROM to my phone and it's been very good so far actually, thank you.
T-MOBILE
Hi, ansar.
Can i unlocked my T-MOBILE?
Thanks!!!!
I have to say, ever since using this newer ROM with the updated radios, my phone has lasted longer battery wise, and reception has even improved greatly. I get better data speeds, and there is even a slight improvement in overall performance of Windows Phone 7. It's all been pretty nice.
Thanks ansar.

Yes, this is essentially a hard reset. Everything gets wiped and you start all over again.

Ok, thanks for the heads up. Even though that's not I wanted to hear!
Final dumb question: If I purchased and installed an app prior to the hard reset, will I have to buy the app again after the process?

I didn't have to. With the free apps I installed it actually notified me that I'd already purchased the app and asked if I would simply like to download it again.

Your purchases and app downloads are tied to the primary Windows Live ID on your phone (the first Windows Live ID that you set up on your phone). So as long as you sign in with that same ID, you can redownload all your applications to your phone without charge. If you plug in your phone to your computer and sync it right after you hard reset, Zune will even restore all your apps for it so you don't have to go through the Marketplace manually.
Hello, as successful as I have been with this ROM I must note that it is a little bit buggy.
Today my phone rebooted for the first time since I've owned it for example. Also, I think it affects the 3G/2G selection process in a negative way. Normally I use ##3282# to set my phone 3G only but it seems to ignore the setting at times...
HI,
Firstly this started 5wks ago out of the blue.
My problem is I cannot hear a voice from an incoming call!
I can be heard on both incoming and outgoing calls
It has worked on a couple of occasions for a few seconds but is very distorted and sometimes you can hear them faintly in the background for a few seconds.
Works fine on speaker and headphones.
I’ve tried numerous roms clean installs, swapping kernels …blah blah blah
I’m at a complete loss and its driving me friggin crazy!!
I have a Logcat of me making a call.
I’m hoping that someone will be able to decipher and point me in the right direction.
From what I see its routing audio to speakerphone and not handset??
I don’t know if this the correct way to post a log…if not go easy on me…
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
+Thanks for taking the time to look.

Hi,
the only other radio I have tried Leo_RADIO_2.14.50.02 and sadly the same.
Just about to install Dorimanx new rom + kernel v1.6 (Fingers crossed)

Considered that as a last resort.
Haven’t yet looked into it, was hoping that I din't have to go down that road.
I’m assuming that there is a fare amount involved in doing so?
Cheers
Edit: Installed WinMo NRG Energy rom and have the same problem!
I'm now assuming that this is unfortunately a hardware issue
Thanks Dr_Grip for input - Appreciated
