GPS Issues caused by Custom Roms
I experienced the same thing. The only rom that works, and I have tried 6 of them including leo, the cell rom and others. GPS only works with my original ATT rom. Google Maps will not work and any other apps depending on the Gps. I think it has something to do with MYLOCATION in the new custom roms. I also notice that MYLOCATION will only work after some adjustments meaning when i flash a rom it will not work after flashing.
Has anyone had a similar experience. I am stuck with the ATT stock rom because I need my GPS to work. Any sugggestions.
I just installed the Europe rom and I am also having gps problems. It worked fine with the stock rom, and energy rom i tried before and then a different stock 6.1 rom (was not the same as the actual "stock" rom). Any help would be great, dont really want to go back to 6.1 and this rom is very solid.

Hi All,
I am new to this forum, I installed WM6.5 from T-Mo website, after dooing that I see that TouchFlo3D is not pn my TP2 anymore, also the option for START-SETTING takes me to Manilla Settings. Has anyone else experienced this. Is there a new ROM I can install. Any help will be appreciated.
try installing rom again. it should fix the problem
That ROM is a bit of a stinker. It has doccumeted issues with losing time, all of the time. If you want a stock rom you should install HardSPL and take one of the WWE 6.5 ROMs.
this time i installed rom, my phone is freezing .... i have to do atleast 2 or more resets everyday since i have installed it.
A fair number of people have discovered that re-flashing that t-mo 6.5 ROM a 2nd time has helped clear up a number of odd issues like those.
Hi guys,
I've been using the forum for a year or so now and it's great!
I'm now the proud owner of an HD2 from O2 UK and I've already updated the ROM to version 1.72.206.3, which I believe is the latest, but what are the differences between this O2 ROM and the unbranded ROM?
I've done a search and can't seem to find anything to answer this question.
Hope somebody can help.
thanks
The unbranded ROM?
Which ROM? Do you mean the original o2 1.43 ROM? Not much difference that you would recognise. The volume slider in WMP renders correctly in 1.72 whereas in 1.43 it looked like a poo stain in a pair of underpants. Apart from that forget it. I just includes all of the camera, SMS and other hotfixes which had been released between the two versions.
Do you mean cooked ROMs you can download from XDA? The world of difference. Select a ROM with the features you want from the ROM section and flash it as per the instructions given.
Maybe over the next year you will read some of the posts. Maybe even learn a thing or two
if you do in fact mean cooked roms. then alot.
for me (an energy user) the phone no longer crashes every day. i can install all the apps i want and not hit the memory usage on the phone. The phone runs alot faster, smoother has better apps pre-installed and i just like it more?
After having read almost all threads from the beginning it seems that ALL branded HD2s are buggy to excess ..............
I use an unbranded one, and while once in a while I had some probs with 1.43 since 1.48 it runs as smooth as liquid nitrogene.
I have also installed SKTools and Pocket Mechanic, LeoCPUSpeed V.3.0, CHT 1.6 (the ultimate stable version till now), Chainfire´s 3D-driver and before any mod or installed app I do a backup. In case a new app causes probs I just revert to sit as before.
No single hardreset necessary till now since I unpacked it.
Honestly: I was heavily tried to flash a cooked ROM once, but I refrain from THAT as soon as I read in the specific threads about the many problems some of the users then have with lock-ups, freezes, bricking. And branded HD2s ARE cooked ROMS !
CHT, Franwella, Jaguaralani, Smaberg, MooNah and the many others (sorry for not remembering ALL names, but ALL are geniousses) offer such nice little mods that there is no need FOR ME to experiment with cooked ROMS.
Also on Freewarepocketpc - when is new app is issued - as soon as I read "does not work on HD2" I abstain from installing till a stable version is issued.
difference between o2 rom and unbranded rom
hi
in o2 rom wifi router is missing
Hi all,
Thanks for all the input so far.
Previous to having the HD2 I had an X1 which I flashed with various cooked ROM's successfully and it worked quite well.
Really, I just need to know what is missing on the O2 1.72 ROM that is on the equivalent stock ROM which I assume is 1.48 and would I benefit from flashing a stock ROM to the device.
Would it let me do this with no problems and would it affect the warranty, if it needed reapair, if I did flash it with a stock ROM or would I have to go back to the O2 ROM?
Hi!
Reason I'm asking is I'm running the mdeejay_froyo_sense_v2.1_ppp build with radio 2_10_50_08_2 and stock norwegian 1.66 ROM - and everything seems to run just fine (had it for several days now)
So, then I wonder why it's recommended to use a custom rom? Do the android build have any to do with what wm rom you use? Or could it be this build runs so smooth for me because i'm using a class 4 card?

I think that the Android builds use WM differently.
My phone was a stock phone, and i tried to boot the Darkstone Sense android. This did not go very well. WM locked up, and all i could do in WM was some basic stuff. All 3'rd part apps did not work. I could not install anyting. So i changed ROM and Radio and everything now works well. So, i got hold of another stock HD2, tried the same thing, and the same happened once again.

It's just recommended because the custom ROM' are more customized to run Android without problems, but you can run android with any rom even stock as long as you have the proper Radio
The custom WM roms meant for android boot very quickly, are small files, and have custom boot loaders built in. All of this is at the expense of windows mobile functionality.
I believe that WM rom has little impact on the actual performance of android and only aids in how quickly you go from device off to booted android. All you really NEED is the right radio.
Oky, thnx...well, I went on and installed a custom rom anyway (think it was about time anyhow ), and now running the Desire HD build - running great, so guess my system/radio is what it should be now
i have been running android on my hd2 for almost 3 months and i have yet to put a custom rom on my phone all i did was put a hard spl and change radio that was it android runs fine never had any real problems like everyone else is having and if i did i changed the build
I would recommend a Custom ROM thats Android Friendly like that any issues that WM might cause to Android are gone...
BUT,
You can still Run android on top of a Stock Build...
I had android once with a Stock ROM from T-Mobile and it worked just as good as a custom one...Just Depends on your luck of the Draw...
The latest Official ROM from T Mobile caused sound issues on my Android Build so i kicked it
Im also on Stock rom, happy with with performance and stability

Hi Gihanfx,
How is the battery life for you with the stock rom and radio?
I saw some other posts saying the android is speedy an stable with the latest stock rom and radio, but the battery life actually sucks.
Thank you
I am thinking about updating my phone to the newest update from tmobile 3.14.... but does anyone know if any android builds work on it...
am using cmyfroyomoostone.bluetopia.v.0.3.1 with the new tmobile stock rom 3.14 and so far so good all works will also calls
Works great with any Android for HD2, I've run several of them. Before I had to run a custom ROM or an old stock ROM rather than the latest stock, but T-Mobile fixed the Android compatibility in 3.14. That having been said, I might be using a custom ROM soon, I like cookie's home tab and some of the chefs seem to be better at getting it really nice than me. ;-)
yup, I just installed android on my hd2 yesterday with the 3.14 update from tmobile and it is working just fine
it works, but i think the radio included with the update drains you battery pretty fast... i would go for a energy rom with 2.12.50.xx.x radio and phireMOD skinnyEVO v1.5 and if you dont want the overclocked cpu upgrade to latest kernel and it works fantastic,,,, try and youll see,,, mms, sms, and everything... >
Works awesome
i am running on completly stock with 3.14 update... battery life is ABSOLUTLY HORRIBLE THO!!!!!!!!!
Hello everyone,
I am new to HTC and custom roms can someone wrote briefly which are the best custom roms for my HTC HD2? (tried and tested roms!) Now I am using it stock rom but I am not happy with it.
1. Best Android rom (I tried 4.4.4 but is too slow and have a feeling is draining battery more than the normal)
2. Best Windows Mobile 6.5 rom?
3. Best Windows Phone rom?
4. Best Windows Mobile/Ubutuntu/Android rom?
Cheers,
Best custom WM6.5 is Energy

With bit of personal modding it rock solid & well featured.
Used on all our work HD2 handsets as the rest are junk except for gaming or facebook ...
Thanks mate! I will try it.
Also mate try Android 4.4.2 tytung rom it is working good on my HD2 (Native SD - SD card 10 class 8gb)
Thank you bojan. I see that the Energy rom has a Launch Android shortlink so I suppose it is for that. Just to figure out how to install it...
@ Mister B
I have one issue, BTW I succefully installed 24.Nov.Energy rom and very happy with it! Just what I needed. I am not going to use the phone for games. Maybe except for chess. Simpler, stable the better. Excuse me for writing it in this topic but I don't have access to ask in the proper threads as a new user and I am eager to figure it out.
The issue is that when I listen to the FM radio and I have a call the phone is turning off. Is this normal? Had someone experienced a simmilar issue? Is windows mobile providing some kind of an errors log?
Yes the energy rom has a link to launch android SD build.
I have just tested my FM Radio as i'm on that ROM & no issue on incoming call.
Could possibly be linked to radio version perhaps, i'm using radio as linked in my signature.
Are you also on HSPL2.08 !?
I have Chess Genius, Tripplix & Virtual Pool Mobile which more than enough for gaming for me.
IM+ still works on WM too so can support facebook messaging etc which can be handy.
