Hi,
I've been trying to get the MyPhone premium features trial (locate lost phone/remote ring etc.) to work on the HD2 and to set this up the service needs to send 12 silent messages to the phone. This worked on my old Polaris just fine but on the HD2 it fails to recieve these 12 messages and therfeore the service cant be used.
Does anyone else have this problem???
Thanks
Just gave it a go - same problem - FYI I'm on Vodafone..
Have you guy's updated your ROM to the newest version? Maybe HTC has fixed it... I don't know, but it's worth a try.
I've not flashed yet, due to the O2 branded ROM, might try the goldcard method on the weekend.
Anyone with the newer ROM care to try the free premium features trial and report back
Thanks

Hd2 my phone premium features dont work
I have a HD2 which i bought sim free which Im using on the Orange UK 3G network.
I've also noticed that the premium features on ms_myphone dont work with the HD2.
Along with everyone else, I get the message that the phone cannot be contacted.
As soon as the ROM is officially announced on the website of HTC: Report this issue. Maybe they fix it soon then...

TBH don't see the point in waiting until ROM is officially announced, after all it doesn't work in the current ROM neither! So reporting it as "not working" now just means they can't come back with a "this feature is supported in a forthcoming ROM" (or if they do then we'll know they are talking about something coming later in the pipeline than 1.48!).
I think the more people that report it the better; especially as the whole MS MyPhone feature doesn't seem to have had all that much marketing (at least the here in the UK) therefore the might not immediately be that many people complaining about it.
Just my opinion
Don't know if it's relevant, but having run MyPnone on the original ROM I was (as is standard) asked to download an update to the application. I did this and all was well until today when I was asked to download another update, which I have also done.
Why not see if there is any way to force this update - it may be a bugfix?

No, still doesn't work with my SIM free HD2 on Orange UK- "The ring/ lock request couldn't be sent due to a problem with our service"

Semi-relevent but sadly not a fix..
The 'updated' version of the MyPhone app contains the code for the 'Premium' service to work, however these in turn have to then be supported by the phone itself. FYI. Turns out what it does is constantly monitor your incoming txt messages for and intercepts specially formatted ones from the MS server instructing it to do something (ie. for the MyPhone app to launch and connect back to base, turn ringer to full and ring, acquire GPS fix, etc etc). I'd hazard a guess it is the HTC Sence txt messaging service which is preventing this service from working - after all it is known already not to play nice with the txt message notification queue and instead hog it to itself.
So in summary: without the update you'd have no chance of the location element of the Premium Services working, with it you still need support from your handset and it would seem up to ROM 1.48 at least we have sadly confirmed not to have this with the HD2 at this stage. A fix needs to come from either HTC or Microsoft (further updated to MyPhone app), or quite possibly both.
There's a relevant thread over at the MyPhone forum that I tried to add to http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/MyPhone/thread/57659d5c-2077-4387-9bda-92643e17cab7
not had a reply yet, maybe we need a new thread over there?
i think it must be the HTC messaging app ... has anyone install back the old windows message app, and try the myphone Premium features again?
Im going to bump this thread now that custom ROMS are out there and ask
Is anyone with the htc messaging removed able to set up the premium features of MyPhone?
How do you disable HTC messaging....?
Can you fully disable senseUI ?
On a stock rom....
Serriously, your telling me that no one cares about locating their lost phone, remote wiping etc!
but threads like oh god I bought the wrong phone get a responce
Any luck with a 1.66 ROM?

If you are looking for find my phone style software, forget the myphone premium, go look at Remotetracker. Free, and superb. Stuffed with tons of features. TXT your phone, it will call you back with the microphone open, another command will text you gps coordinates and a link to the position on google maps, another commands will start the gps, make a 5 minute track log and then text it to you in google earth compatible format,, send popup messages to teh phone, get it to send you all your contacts, get it to wipe the SD card, the list is endless.
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
remotetracker is good but I would prefer to be able to use a website to contact my phone rather than having to send a text to it. also being able to ring the phone etc and view it on a map
I am not sure if anyone mentioned as yet but official htc site has the following hotfix available
"This update for HTC HD2 messaging lets you reach out to your friends and family with instant notifications. Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers just that: fast and reliable SMS messaging. "
Note: This update is only applicable to ROM version is equal to 1.49.XXX.X, or lower.
Does not solve anything. Still have the same problem on SMS.
Ive not noticed any problems at all, what is it supposed to fix?, And whar does it not fix lol.
i dont have any problems with my hd2 either but i still applied it.
I've applied it and my phone is sending/receiving SMS perfectly, just as it always has. It's a bit sad but I love installing updates.
I haven't had any problems with SMS either.
But maybe it's because my ROM (1.43) is not among those with issues.
oops... I just realized it says for 1.49.XXX and lower!
gotta obey and apply the fix then

You are one sick puppy!
I know what you mean though; was on the miri HD ROM update train for months, upgrading every week or two until I got the HD2. I have had no problems with it whatsoever, but I still can't wait until they get USPL/HSPL sorted so that I can start flashing again...

Something has corrupted my message notifications, so I no longer recieve sounds for messages and emails etc. Enough though the hot fix addressed the SMS loading thread issue, I bet it has caused the issue I currently have, as I havent installed anything else. The SMS loading issue may have been annoying at times, but there were easy work arounds. Not hearing or feeling when a message comes in is damn annoying!
After installing this hotfix on my phone, I downloaded my archived messages (about 2000 of them) and tried the SMS tab. Everything worked great, apart from the known and reported issues about the display going a little odd when it had loaded all messages.
Everything was fine and then my phone suddenly started running slower than my old HD used to. Everything was stuttering and laggy, and I mean the whole phone - not just the SMS tab.
After numerous restarts and turning things off and on again, I finally re-archived all my text messages so that there were none on the phone and guess what.... it's fine again now.
The hot"fix" wasn't so hot if you ask me.

I'm using 1.48 official. I'm gonna leave it till 1.6 comes out before I choose whether or not to go unofficial.

It does look nice, but I'd probably turn it off straight away as I'd never use it!
Its available in the Middle eastern website
I sent an email on the HTC Website and I got a reply that Hot Fix was pulled out because of compatibility issues.
Edit: by the way, they said a new one will be released soon.
I read in another forum that the official release will be another week or so due to some tweaking they want to do to the ROM.
I don't know if this is accurate or not (and I do not have alink to the forum where I read this...I read too many forums), but I think I may wait for the official release.

when 2.13 was leaked it was exactly the same as the one that was released. I'm guessing this will be the same deal. Doesn't hurt to wait though.
3.14 is amazingly stable in my opinion...loads faster than 2.13 to boot!
I didn't wait.
I've been pleasantly surprised by how stable it's been. I've had maybe one or two freezes since the install and that was on day one. Since then it's been rock solid. Even the HTC messaging has been lag free.
It will be some time before I think about switching back to custom ROMs. Although I do miss all those nice features that nrgz has in his builds...
I'll probably install the official release if they've made any tweaks.
I love reading this and am not a patient man, but on the tmo forum (I finally figured out where I read it) they note puling it back for a few more tweaks.
probably bs, but who knows.
I know I should just dicer in with a link from here as I did last time, but I just did a fresh wipe and reinstall a few weeks back due to exchange server policy enforcement and subsequent lock out and thought maybe to wait...just in case.
thanks for the kind responses though!
There is a major flaw. my head phones do not work with this rom. i tested it twice and then had to go back to retail to confirm that my head phone did not become defective. im sure they will review and fix this issue. the speed is the same i can confirm. it needs some more tweaks none the less.
3.14 has been working fine so far. However, my lock screen picture is now stretched. It's driving me insane!!
Has anyone else had this problem? Could it be happening because of something other than the new rom update?
Does anyone know how to adjust lock screen pictures? I can't seem to find any options.
How do you install the .exe file?
What .exe file? The ROM itself? You connect your phone via USB to your computer, let it sync, then run the .exe from your computer to install the ROM on your phone. Read the stickies for exact instructions.

maybe something was wrong apart from the rom, because both stock and my custom roms worked fine... i listen to audi via headphones twice a day every single day... and my headphones work
the rom is a little faster and there are new GUI designs
when i used it as a custom rom, i had no issues. but the moment i used xmoo version of 3.14 i would always get the same issue. i connect head phones and i dont hear anyone talking via phone calls. also for some reason, they are always on speaker phone even if the option is not enable.
can you please link me the version of rom you are using?

God what a huge improvement everything is. I unplugged it from power last night around midnight and left it next to my bed while I slept. With WiFi on. It's now 10 hours later, I've toyed with it for about an hour, and the battery is at 90%.
Unfortunately, HTC Messaging + Swype doesn't appear to be a lot better. Maybe a little, in terms of the initial lag when replying to a msg. Also, when a new msg comes in and you hit the message tab, the thumbnail isn't always the current msg.
Emails look a TON different. Much smaller text = YAY!
Knucklehead noobie here... Where do I get the updated ROM from? Thanks.
Does flashing a new ROM delete all your text messages and stuff?
ranestari, yes it does.
However, just sign up for the Microsoft MyPhone thing (free, and if you already have a live account, you're good to go.) The MyPhone app is in your start menu.
It will back up (sync) all of your texts and pics to their online space, only accessible by you (http://myphone.microsoft.com)
When you flash the rom, just launch the MyPhone app again, log in etc... and it will sync all your texts back to your phone.
There are third party sync options out there, but I've never seen the point.
After flashing 3.14 to my HTC HD2, Microsoft My Phone no longer can synchronize with my computer. It just gets stuck at Authenticating User.
Anybody else have this problem?
Microsoft MyPhone doesn't sync with your computer. It syncs to the cloud (internet). Just put in your live, msn, hotmail or whatever account you configured it with before you flashed, and it should resync.

Can you elaborate on this? My main frustration with the current rom is the stupid HTC messaging client with swype. I absolutely despise this thing and I tried disabling it and going back to the old windows messaging but that didn't go too well (unread counter never resets.. OMFG so frustrating!). My only hope is that they fix this crap in the new rom.
Is the lag when loading texts still ridiculous? Is it at least somewhat better? Why haven't they figured this out, this is just pure crazy in my opinion. A company of that magnitude can't figure out how to fix one of the most basic applications in the phone. this is absurd.
I personally HATE Swype and disable it evertime I flash to a new ROM or come in contact with someone thats got an HD2 with it enabled, but what I can say is that while HTC Messageing in the new ROM is "faster" its also just as slow. What I mean is that (for me anyways) it no longer lags when I get a new text, but its just as slow to load a thread if it has any ammount of messages in it. Personally I don't find HTC Messageing to be all that bad if you just delete your threads every now and then, but thats just me.
I recently upgraded my Atrix to GB 2.3.4 (official 4.5.91) and found that the SMS/MMS settings has changed. I could not find the option "Delivery report" anymore. And my phone now always indicates the pending (a clock) icon on side of every outgoing sms, though it really has been delivered already.
Anyone else got this problem? Is this a bug from GB 2.3.4 from Google or Motorola??
Pls someone check this for me?

The delivery report option was missing for me since the beginning. I never had it in Froyo
It works fine in 2.2.2 and now after 2.3.4 OTA update its gone - no app can turn it on. I tryed to edit settings.mkitso from 0 to 1 (turn on SMS delivery) even try to use special characters but no way to get delivery report even in such apps like headcent sms and go sms which are used own settings for this option. Looks like it kernel or radio based thing that just filter off delivery reports! ((
Yeah, I spent rather much time to search and try some solutions to fix but failed to all.
So, now its really a bug from new kernel, I think.
I just created this thread to collect confirmations from people and hope Moto or developers fix it soon
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Agree! Ready to sign petition )
Bump for this, I'm seriously missing delivery reports.
Is it a radio thing?
any info if it works in custom 2.3.4 roms ?
No update for this issue
This is a basic function of any GSM mobile phone. But I cannot understand why they guys from Motorola decide to remove it from a smartphone as Atrix? Ist it unnecessary??
Edit: Hi nice developers,
Could you guys check and fix this problem?

I'm using Cherryblur 1.4d and checking the settings, it doesn't have the options to send sms reports.
Besides that my messages is ok.
of course its not it stock sms messaging - any third side apps - headcent sms or GoSMS have this flag.
I tried different versions of radio module -it doesn't solve the problem.
I'd like to bump this again, really miss this feature.
Please can a dev look into it and find out what's missing from the GB roms. Thanks.

Yeah, just noticed the same problem as well. Atrix on 2.3.4 (pre-installed), rooted. No delivery reports for me, using GoSMS pro.
Another bump for this....really need someone to figure this out. I'll put a bounty up - let's start a fund.
I also want this feature. Why on Earth would anybody want to remove this option??
Sorely missing this.. I don't get any types of confirmation anymore.. It really sucks when you are in a fight with your girlfriend....
Even if It sends.... and I long press on it, there is only a message details option, no delivery or read report anymore... WTF??
I am using CM7.1 on an HTC Glacier (MyTouch 4G). I am going to download a nightly of CM and see if this fixes it at all.
hello people! I have the same problem Atrix staff figured it would arrange with GOSMS, but no one can solve this problem?
