I am wanting to change my ROM to a custom one. I have a Xda Orbit 2, I have tried 2 ROMS the other day:
"Kostas244_ROM_3g_23016_FINAL_B"
"pcarvalho_eXtreme__23016_Beta_3D__ROM_3.19_Release"
They went on perfect no problem, restarted, went through the usual stuff aligning screen etc.. Everything worked... Well everything I tried worked apart from it was like the audio drivers where missing.
They was no sound when playing music, incoming call... or when i tried ringing someone I couldn't even hear anything.
I made sure the volume was up and it wasn't on silent/vibrate but still didn't work.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks, James
Scroll down in the pcarvelho post and try the 23547 - everything on this seems to work.
Don't forget to flash the original rom, hard reset, then flash the new rom and hard reset.
Just tried it, everything works.. audio works aswell. another problem is that it will not connect to the service provider.. when i put a sim card in and turn it on it loads everything ok then i get a pop up saying "the operation failed" and just wont connect to the phone, and the touchflo doesn't work, it says "tap here to launch touchflo" but when you tap it, it doesn't do anything.

I think I have sorted it now... I'm just going to test it for a while and if I notice any faults I will try your ROM. But to get it sorted I....
Flashed with original ROM > Hard Reset
Flashed with "my rom 23529 with EzInput 2.1" > Hard Reset > Soft Reset
Flashed with "pcarvalho eXtreme (23547 Beta non3D) ROM 3.19 Release" > Hard Reset
And now its running smooth for now. I will report back to this thread in a few days after I have had a play around.

Try using Scott's Reloaded 4 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444342 I used the "loaded" version and it doesn't prompt for the screen calibration. Have you tried a hard reset? It sounds like it might be a hardware issue, but I'm no expert.

tried hard reset already but when it starts the screen windows mobile 6.1 and it says tap on the screen I tap and it wont pass that I cant get into nothing what can I do .. I need my phone omg..
This can be caused by an OEM conflict. Try flashing either the stock rom or a clean rom like DCD's, then after it boots, if it still doesn't work, take out the battery for 5 minutes and then try to boot it back up, if it still doesn't work I would say you probably damaged the touchscreen and will need to go in for service unless you want to try the repair yourself, it's a very slim piece of plastic that I believe goes under the screen.

Hi and thank you I tried hard reset and the screen still didnt work I am still in the same position how do you clean the rom like DCD becasue my screen its still stuck in in the area where it says tap on the screen so windows can continue and it stays ther its still there omg...
by clean rom he meant a rom that doesn't have a bunch of junk on it. DCD's newest rom is a nice one. Have you tried reloading a rom from your carrier? try the official rom first. or better yet maybe you should take it back to the store to see what your options are before you go voiding any warrenties.
everything was fine, no problems with the phone at all, than I installed Duttys 4.1 rom and ever since the camera doesnt work. I got the camera to work once since then by un-ticking the camera tab from the Touch flow, soft resetting, then ticking the tab again but now thats not even working. I have installed 2 diferent roms since then and it still doesnt work. also the photo album doesnt work from that tab anymore but does in the program list where as the camera doesnt work at all.
Any help would be great
Have the same problem myself and have yet to find an answer
I found a guy that used advanced config to change one of the camera settings but I tried it and it didnt work
When you flashed the ROM, did you put the phone into boot loader manually, or did the installation software do it?
the installation software did it

I tried that myself and it worked for a while (a couple days) then the camera stopped working again. That trick has not worked since that first time. I have changed roms a couple of times and still nothing.

Same here. Also I did accidentally install a rom with the wrong spl and had to hard spl after installing the rom. I think I went from 1.14 to 1.56 or something like that. I had a green tint to the screen until I did the hard spl. I have installed many roms since then and have not had a problem. I did not have a camera issue before this but the camera did work for quite a while after the spl issue. Hopefully this makes sense what I am saying.
so you are saying your camera was fixed after you "re- hard SPL'd" your phone?

No, I have an unlocked telstra phone and I had flashed my rom a couple times without needing to hard SPL my phone and never had a problem with flashing roms or the camera. It was only after I flashed to a rom that needed the phone to be Hard SPL'd and I didn't properly Hard SPL my phone before flashing the rom. I got the wierd "green tint" to my screen and realized that i had incorrectly Hard SPL'd. I quickly realized my mistake and then did it correctly and then the newer rom worked fine. It was a couple weeks later that the camera stopped working. I can't remember if I was on the same rom or not from when I Hard SpL'd my phone.
Sorry if this is hard to follow.
My thought is, did my upgrade without properly Hard SPL'ing my phone damage the camera or is it something else. Again, I have since properly Hard SPL'd my phone and flashed many roms since without a problem except the non-working camera.
well I don't know but I hard SPL'd my phone the day I got it with the 1.56 HSPL and I have used may roms on this phone. The rom I installed when this happended was duttys WM6.1 rom

I was trying to revert to an older Hard SPL 1.14 and install an older rom to see if that did the trick. Anyway, in my haste I screwed up and installed the older Hard SPL 1.14 and forgot to add in the older Rom so I ended up with the green screen of death. I couldn't get it to connect via activesync and put it in bootloader mode and re-Hard SPL'd it to 1.56 and the green screen was gone. I was about to go back to the Hard SPL 1.14 with one of Duty's older pre 1.56 Roms but thought I would check on the camera again one last time.
Now the camera works. Again, this is not the first time I have gotten the camera to work and I have no idea how long it is going to last but it is working and I am not going to mess with it anymore right now. I will leave the Hard SPL 1.56 and Miri's WM6.5 Rom that I have on the phone alone and see how it goes.
I know this is not a complete answer and I don't know if just re-Hard SPL'ng will work but it is worth a shot. Again, I downgraded first 1.14, screwed up the phone the went back to 1.56 and the camera started working again. At least I know that it is probably not a hardware issue as I have no where to send it back to for repair. All is well in Wisconsin for the time being.
Well two things:
1st can you just tell me exactly what you did, step by step. If I understand you correctly, I have already tried this but there may be a step or 2 that I missed. please include the roms you went from and two also
2nd, just called HTC and they said my the #'s my phone still has some warranty left and they will honor it in the states (I will reflash to tesla rom and the stock SPL before I send it)
Thank you for keeping me up to date on what you have done to get yours working. If your camera fails again, just call the # on the US HTC customer service site.

hello there ,
1.14 radio is the problem ,
try to flash new one which is 1.16 in same form
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529031
or try to get into 6.1 and then Hard Rest with out Upgrade to dutty ,
seems problem in driver...
best regards
I havent had 1.14 on my phone since the day after I got it...
I am not very good at step by step instructions but you have obviously done a lot of flashing already, I will keep it short. Again, this started out as a botched attempt to downgrade my Rom to an older WM 6.1 Rom using the old 1.14 Hard SPL. You might not want to do this as it will temporarily screw up your phone. If you do, here are the steps I took. Really not too involved. Please read all steps first.
1. I synced my phone and downloaded the older 1.14 Hard SPL and flashed it.
link
2. That screwed up my phone "Aweful Greenscreen effect" and was not able use activesync anymore for flashing. I then put the phone into bootloader mode by powering off the phone. Hold in top power button until it asks if you want to power down. Yes. Then when you power up hold the volume down key and the power button at the same time. Make sure your USB cable it still plugged in. Your phone should now be in bootloader mode.
3. I downloaded the most current Hard SPL 1.56 and ran the HSPL Wrapper Blackstone 156OliNex
4. After that the Green Screen problem was gone and when I checked my camera it worked. I took a couple of photos and no problem. I opened it first with the WM Camera Program button then with the Manilla tab. When I used the Manilla tab it had to map the camera/videocamera button as we as find the photo album. After that it has showed up in Manilla normally every time I go back to it. Again, we will see how long this takes.
Thanks for the info on possibly being able to return the device for warranty reasons to HTC.
Hopefully this helps and my links work.
if you don't mind me asking, what dutty rom did you install because this all started for me when I insalled duttys 4.1 WM6.1 rom
Update
When I said I took the phone all the way back to stock, it wasnt 100% true. I loaded a stock HTC rom not a telstra rom.
with that being said, today I got the RMA # from HTC to have the phone repaired so I downloaded the newest updated Telstra Rom and loaded it onto the phone.By the way, My phone did not have the newest Telstra rom on it ever! When the phone was done, I started to prepair to load the newest stock SPL to go along with the rom when I notice the camera works..... What the hell?!?! I try loading a custom rom on it (miris 6.5 rom), camera still works! Hard reset the phone, camera still works. I don't know what this means but my phone is back on line with all features!
Thanks for everyones help and input
Keep your eye on it. It is almost like it slowly looses the connection to the camera and then has a hard time remaking the connection once it is lost. Then you have to do something drastic to get it back. I wouldn't mind so much if it only happened every three or four months but so far I have not been able to keep the camera going past two weeks without loosing it again. Keep me posted if yours goes out again.
Well that didn't take long. Camera is dead again. Going back to WM 6.1 and SPL 1.14 to see if that makes a difference. "unable to initialize" then camera and album disappears from TF3D.
What I ended up doing ( and I did it more then once cuz I tried to load a wm6.5 rom on it) was as fallows
starting with many different wm 6.5 roms, radio: 1.13.25.24 and HSPL 1.56
step 1: I flashed the newest telstra rom (Telstra_WWE_1.59.841.6_Radio_52.64.25.34_1.14.25.24)+
step 2: hard reset
step 3: flashed this custom 6.1 rom (gave up on trying to find a 6.5 rom that worked), L26 ultimate V3.55
step 4: hard reset
step 5: synced to my PC
step 6: loaded all my cabs (soft resetting after every 2 or 3)
Now Miris 6.5 V26 came close to working but when I would sync via PC or Microsoft My Phone it the camera bug would come back.
I am at about 18 hours without the bug. I have soft reset, changed the battery, synced the phone to my PC, called, received calls and text so far...
Hello,
I was using multiple ROMs with RADIOs 2.05 and 2.08 and everywhere was this problem - when I calling to someone and press End Call (HW or SW button), phone doesn't end calling, only button get grayed, but it is still ringing.
Please, do you know what could help? Thank you.

i get that issue sometimes as well.. i found it worked ok after i made sure the in car bluetooth was automatically allowed to connect to anything it needs.. followed by a soft reset.. should only be the once though
Ok this is interesting. I had never had this problem but now I have flashed to Flashmores latest and the ROM is great and fast (and yes I did hard reset after flashing) but now I have this problem.
When I'm in a call none of the touch keys work. Cant access the keypad or anything. Really annoying.
I have to use the hard key to kill the call.
Any thoughts?
Oh and I dont have a bluetooth headset!
GG
It's independent on Bluetooth and same problem is with hardware- and software- keys (buttons).
I have the same problem...Which ROM versions do you have? mine problems started after flashing ROMs from TMOUS...so versions 1.7 to 2.10...I will revert back to older ROMs...
I think this problem was also in stock ROM about 1.42..
Hi guys,
For those problems, I advice you to do these steps in order whenever you want to flash a ROM (stock,shipped,cooked ROM). If you want the stable ROM for daily usage... just flash the shipped ROM
-Choose Clear Storage in you current ROM.
-Take out your SD card and Format it by (FAT32)
-Connect your Device to PC and do a MTTY... You can read this for more details (do it in careful way)
-Then Flash the Shipped ROM 1.66 I suggest the 1.66.405.2 WWE.
-Do not hard reset after flash... I mean let your device through the "Customization" first then just skip all setting and Reset the device. While the device is getting reboot... Do a hard reset
-Setting up all things.
Hope this help
it doesn`t work I think this problem is according to radio ROM. I will flash another...
i had this problem yesterday and have fixed it
ceratin roms are only compatible with certain radios
for example yesterday i installed SONE 2.5 and i couldnt make calls, it would freeze
i looked at the ROM requirements and i was using a radio not supported by the ROM
simply change the radio respectively to the ROM
This problem, which I'm describing, is something other. RADIO patch is okay (I think), but phone is "slow" during phonecall and phonecall cannot be hanged out..
Hi guys, ive been using htc touch hd since a year now and never faced this issue. Suddenly from last week im unable to send text message or reply. ive search all over and tried every trick mentioned here but no avail. im using the shipped rom no modifications. everything was working just fiine. the weird thing is that my message are sent if i make a call to any one...all those msgs sitting in outbox are sent then. my SMSC is correct. Please help me.
P.S. Ive also tried using other cell phones like nokia, diamond 2 etc and text messages seem to work fine with them...
Please anyone help me...
hello!
sorry mate i dont think there's much you can do, other than a hard reset. sounds annoying i know, but many us who flash new roms are used to doing it every week!
One thing you could do before this is just to download the latest network settings.
On WM6.5 (should be similar on 6.1) go to:
Start >> Settings >> Connection Setup
Chose your operator and download the settings, then soft reset.
Otherwise, looks like a HR
(to perform a hard reset, power off your device. then hold down both vol up and vol down, and press the power button. brings up a screen of instructions that tells you to press vol up to reset).
I would strongly recommend you look at a custom ROM - you can get so much extra functionality over stock, even if you stick to a 6.1 (fastest) ROM
I had this problem a while ago, i just cleared all of my texts inbox/sent/drafts/deleted then hard reset and its been fine since. FeX
Thanks guys for ur support...ive already done hard resets twice but the prb still there...im afraid to use a cooked rom bcoz it sounds too complicated for me and then ive heard it gets bricked if i do sumthing wrong...
just one question can i hard reset my cell back to shipped rom if i dont like a cooked rom...?? i guess this wud be my last option now to switch to cooked roms but there are so many i cant decide which one will be better for me.
Thanks
Bump...........
its not difficult to flash a custom ROM - you just have to be read the instructions carefully, and take your time.
the instructions are in the wiki here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone
you can flash back to the stock ROM whenever you want to.
you could always see if there is an official update for your ROM first, and just try installing the latest stock if your device does not already have it.
I m all new in windows mobile smartphones and now I have a problem. Well, almost every time I try to change my desktop wallpaper (either "weather" or "lock screen") my phone freez and I have to reset it with the red button that is under battery case (is it hard-reset??). I m not sure what to do and what is happening. I updated my phone with the updates from the official HTC page. I have installed HD2 tweaks, SKTools, SPB backup, SPB time, SPB brain something, ZUMA and Galarm - maybe some of these applications???
Tnx and best regards,
mislav
it's called a soft reset
when you wipe the data from your phone that's a hard reset.
what rom are you on? custom/stock?

I m using stock rom...i think it worked nice till now. I mean, first i started using my phone I tried few times to change wallpaper and it worked fine, and now it sometimes does and sometimes it freez...so I think it s maybe due to installed programes...
normal issues on the HD2..... freezes.. gets choppy/slow...yes frustrating... such a beauty and all those problems.. who to blame?
i had those problem too but flashed to energy rom and haven't seen since then so i would recommend that , b/c stock rom that hd2 comes w/ is buggy so u might wanna think about flashing
I got answer...I removed Galarm I installed previously and now everything works perfectly...
TNX, guys...
One more question..if I flash my mobile is there a way to get back previous, original version?
tnx again
