Hi newbie here - HD2 General

Hi im Zigzagzz71 i have had my T-mo HD2 since launch but havent even begun to tap the power of it yet! i am a old blackberry curve 8320 user. I am trying to find out what to do as far as using ROMS, which i have no idea what they are??? im even having issue uploading a regular movie lol....newbie if anyone can assist or point me in a good start direction i would be very thankful!

Stock ROM
I am using the Stock ROM that came with my T-Mobile USA HD2. I would just recommend using Cookies Home Tab and Editor. Those are great additions. You can search in this forum and surely find the cabs for those apps. As far as movies. I use MP4 Movies and they work perfect. You can connect your fone to your computer using your data cable and active sync or take out the Micro SD in the back of your fone and get an adapter for the micro sd and just stick into one of the USB ports and drag and drop!? Hope this helps

will try....very overwelming at first lol

Strange USB problem

I searched for this but apparently my google fu is not strong enough to dig out an answer if one exists.
I have an xv6800 (originally verizon) that the USB port stopped working on for activesync or headphones. I thought the pot was shot and was flashing it to alltel using the SD card method when I realized that the USB port works fine in bootloader mode. In fact, I loaded a new Alltel rom over USB. The USB port still did not work in windows with the new rom.
Any ideas? The headphones I was trying to use are the ones that came with my touch pro. I have also tried the audio out on the Seido dock for the 6800 and it no workee either. It used to.
Any ideas? It is not the end of the world if it does not work (this is not an active phone...I was going to use it as an Ebook reader/media player) but this really is bugging the crap out of me.

Macbook not recognizing Samsung Vibrant

What's good XDA fam! I was trying to transfer some pics from my old sd card off my G1 and when I plugged the mini usb cable from the macbook to the Vibrabnt it wont recognize the phone after mounting it. Any Mac users out there having a problem?
had the same problem seems the only way to get around it so far is to turn on USB debugging (on your Vibrant) Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging hope this helps
Yep. USB-debug is the only way to do it so far, brother-man. As a Mac user, it's frustrating and annoying. Syncing solutions just aren't there, yet. So you gotta live like it's 1997, and drag files back and forth.
Hopefully, something nice pops up (or DoubleTwist sees a massive overhaul).
Still Not Getting it
Hello everyone new user. Just got my Samsung Vibrant in the mail today and finally got it to recognize on my Mac after reading this post. I created a Music folder and proceeded to add music to it directly from itunes, which worked fine until after i put 20 or so songs it said that i didn't have the space required. Any suggestions/ideas? P.S My version of Avatar says the version is expired, not a big deal but still would like to show off my new high resolution screen.

Dunno from avatar but there are 2 sd mounts listed. One is the built-in 16 gig and the other is the removable. Make sure you are using the right one...

[Q] Nexus Media Importer help!

Hi Guys,
I bought a Noosy U-disk (4 gb of space + acts as a microSD card reader) for my N10 and I'm disappointed that nexus media importer doesn't do anything when I plug it in. It just says "connecting......waiting for media" and I can never access the files on it.
I bought this thing b/c of it's potential utility with it's microUSB on one side + USB/Card reader on the other. I am desperate to get this working since I am constantly on the run in the hospital and need fast access to my notes & guidelines without eating up all my storage. I'm not interested in rooting b/c I have it set up perfectly and don't want to redo all that redownloading of apps etc...and I don't know what I'm doing lol.
It works PERFECTLY with my Galaxy S3, however.
Thanks and I really appreciate it.
(Note: I also bought a couple of OTG cables but they are taking FOREVER to arrive since they are coming from China)
attached is a pic of my U-disk
Hi there sa278. First of all, if it's working with the samsung galaxy S3, we can all guess where is the problem. However, if you want to root your device, there's a method that won't erase your data, and it is automatically, fast and accurate. Look in the forum for superboot, you just need to install the drivers, and double click a .bat file, the rest is up to the program.
I have to say that nexus media importer will let you use the permission of "write" (plus the ones that you have on non-rooted) by rooting your device, but that's not necessary in your case (non-rooted device can only read and execute).
You can give it a try, but it's pretty weird. Have you tried with any other usb? Goodluck!
Sorry for my english
The developer for NMI is very responsive if you email him. I bought the same U-disk device and could only get the built in drive to work, not the card reader. The developer and I emailed for several days and tried to get it to work. Rooting won't help you get the u-disk to work. We tried that as well. I ended up buying a micro-usb microsd card reader instead from aliexpress that works perfectly with NMI.

Do you mind posting a link to the micro-usb microSD card reader you are currently using from aliexpress? I was really hoping this U-disk would work...how disappointing
Thank you.

No problem. This solved my problem of storing movies on my Nexus 10. This is the link: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/USB-OTG-Connection-Kit-MicroB-MicroSD-Card-Reader-for-Cellphone-PC-Smartphone-free-shipping/701881177.html. It works perfectly and is small enough not to interfere with the headphone jack.
Not working anymore
I just recently got NMI for my Nexus 7 and using my OTG cable i was able to use my Seagate 1tB external to view movies and music but now when i connect it i keep getting a Connecting USB Device /dev/bus/usb/002/002 Waiting for Media that lasts forever...any ideas?

usb internet adapter

hello , been trying to look around the forums to see if anyone has tried to get a usb internet adapter to work , im not a builder of roms but just wondering why no one has tried to build a rom with that app, right now im using connectifyme program for pc and tablet , but i wanna be able to shut pc down and use the adapter instead, tryin to cut back on electricity use.
thanks for your help .
Guess not, seems like that would be figured out since most tablets have full size usb ports.

If you still have a Windows Mobile phone, What are you using it for?

Hi all,
I'm just curious. If you guys still have Windows Mobile phone, what are you using it for?
I have one but I don't have any ideas how to invest/use it other than collecting dust.
Can you please share what's your main use of your WM phone in your daily life/work?
Thanks!

HTC TyTN II (Kayser) here...
Trying to use it as a wireless IP cam to install over my apartment's door peephole, but can't find an app that does this. Preferably accesible via internal webserver, VLC playable stream or as an input to a Zoneminder server.
Also thinking of using it as a permanent GPS for my old (1998) car, maybe with a cheap chinese android tablet as a front end via bluetooth.
I used my htc hd mini just until a few days ago, when i dropped it and the screen cracked pretty bad. since it is an old phone and i tend to crack the screen every 1.5-2 years, i always bought a used one on ebay to replace the previous (at least 3 devices by now i think).
This time maybe I try to revive an old hd2 which lies around here for quite some time now...
i liked to cook my own ROM for hd mini and i will probably do so with the hd2, including co0kies home tab and so on.
I like tweaking my devices, and no other OS is that good and that controllable as WM 6. and it doesn't collect my data.
When that one breaks i'll go back to hd mini i think, hd2 little too big for my taste
cheers!
