Success!! But wait... - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hey folks!
Just want to say thanks to everyone who put up some of the great FAQs and guides on here.
I'm successfully running Android on my HTC HD2 (TMOUS) w/ 1024Flash.
However, I am in need of some guidance.
I'm using the HD2Froyo_v2.1 build.
I have also successfully installed HardSPL.
I made a test call, and the person on the other end sounded like a tiny robot.
I read about this in the forum guides, but I'm not sure what exactly I should do.
Can anyone offer some advice/guidance?
I believe I need to install a custom Radio, but I'm not sure which one.
Also, are there any other issues I should expect or anticipate?
Will I be okay to continue using the Android OS from now on if I like it?
Thanks!!

I am running the same combi and i am really happy!
I have tried like so many combinations....BTW, do you know how to show
the correct battery level on the vbn reloaded winmo rom ? Due to its low
current draw, i would like to run it as main OS
z

Okay, so if I install that first one you gave me, I shouldn't have any call issues?
The build of Android I'm using seems to be running great, except for calls.

So here are my questions:
I need to install this VBNROM, correct?
Does this affect the Radio? My Android was running fine, but wasn't processing calls.
Will this VBNROM take care of this issue?
Also, how do I get back to Android after a reboot.
I'm currently back in Windows Mobile, but don't know how to get back to my Android install.
Thanks for the help, guys!

Change your radio

I'll try that first.
Any recommendations?

Try changing your radio. Search this as I am not allowed to post threads:
HTC HD2 Radio ROM Thread
Im pretty sure that you shouldn't flash to a .51 radio (grab the .50 ones) as they brick your TMOUS HD2.
If that doesn't fix the issue then you have to change your WM rom. Try Chucky's rom I found that got rid of the robot voice for me.
Post up if you have any questions.

Thanks.
If you can email me the link, my email is kms311 AT hotmail DOT com
I want to make sure I have the right thread.

try the 2.12.50.02_2, I am using that and it works perfect.
Also try putting music on your phone if you notice that it is playing faster than normal then change your WM rom.

Also, can someone tell me how to get back into Android?
I'm back in WinMobile, and I ran haret again. But now it just reboots to WinMobile each time.

Once android is loaded you won't have to do anything except get some cool new apps like angry birds (which is free and AWESOME). Also to boot up android, open the CRLCAD.exe then Haret.exe then it should boot. Not sure if i spelt it correctly but i hope you understand what i meant.
As I said before changing you WM rom may also help the robot voice. I would recommend Chucky's rom as it has a bootloader, so when WM loads there will be a black and white robot you press and it will boot up Android, better then opening both exe files.

To flash a radio go to the forum i sent you, then go to the installing section
to install as said you need HardSPL, and then download the radio rar file, and also download the CustomRUU file. After they have finished downloading Rename and extract the radio rar file make sure the name says: RUU_Signed.nbh and then open up the CustomRUU.exe and it should load it on to your HD2.
Here is what they wrote:
Installing:
For installing a RADIO ROM you need HardSPL installed to your device.
Rename the extracted file to "RUU_Signed.nbh" and flash with the CustomRUU: it won't hardreset your device.

Okay. I think I follow.
So I'll load a Custom ROM, like Chucky's, using CustomRUU and renaming the file.
Then I'll load the 2.12.50.02.2 Radio, and I should be set.
Have I got that right?

Try flashing a radio first and see if it works. If you still have robo-voice which i doubt then you can load Chucky's Rom.

Trying that now.
I'll post results.

Well, I installed the new Radio, but I'm still getting the robotic, poor audio quality on calls.
I can't understand what the person on the other end is saying.
Should I now try a custom ROM?

i would take the suggestion from the first reply by blacksxe, which is the VBNRom.. and install the radio recommendation version that was posted at the VBNRom page as well (2.15)... also, expect that you will boot to winmo each and everytime that you restart your phone.. as of now, there is no nand support that's available for users.. only the devs has it and it's still under development.. so just use the EBL program that's included on the VBNRom and set it to autoboot (6 seconds or even 10).. that way you won't have to run haret manually each and everytime you restart..

Robot voice with Froyo Build

Ok... I'm a noob. I downloaded HSPL3 and did all that, downloaded the darkstone Froyo build, extracted to the root of the SD card, booted, Android runs, but the phone calls do not. When i call my voice mail it sounds like a robot. I'm running the stock rom. What can i do to fix this?

The stock radio and Rom do not have the required features/bug fixes needed to run android. Any Android Build.
The issue is not with the Android builds, located here.
In laymens terms, you can not have a Honda run like a Corvette without changing the engine. The issue is with crappy programming on Microsoft's/HTC's part. New features needed to be added. Bugs needed to be fixed. The new Roms and radios are this communities solution to that.
Stating that something is a toy because you do not want to make the required changes makes me confused why you are even attempting an xda hack?
Hacks have certain requirements, just like for the iphone or any other device. We are making them do things, the manufactures did not want them to do.
No. You need a cooked rom.
Robo voice
After a day or two of using android the robot voice/sound comes back out of no where. I then have to restart the phone and boot into android for it to go back to normal. does any one else experience this?

Help with Froyo 2.2 on HTC HD2 freezes

Hi everyone,
This is my first post in a long time.
Havent been on this board in ages.
I recently purchased a HTC HD2 and thought I figured out how to load Froyo 2.2 on to my HD2.
I load Froyo 2.2 on to HD2 and it works but after it i set it down and not touch it it will not come back on. I tried to reboot and and it loads fine from the sd card.
I followed the instructions here.
Here is the step by step guide on installing Android 2.2 Froyo on your HTC HD 2 easily:
1. The first step is to download this File, unzip and save the contents on your desktop [Or wherever your prefer].
2. Now connect your HTC HD2 with the computer and copy paste the dowloaded file to the root of SD card.
3. Once this is done, disconnect your phone and launch Windows Mobile File Manager.
4. Now in the File Manager, navigate to Android Folder and tap of “CLRCAD” followed by “Haret”.
5. Now wait for the procedure to finish. so not do anything silly at this time because the first boot will take some time so hang on in there.
6. There you go! Your HTC HD2 will reboot into Android. You can now make calls, email, connect to Wi-Fi or Edge and do everything else that you do with a phone.
You can navigate to this link if you are facing any difficulty in installing Android 2.2 Froyo on your HTC HD 2.
The phone is great with Froyo 2.2 but with win 6.5 its kind of ****ty.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for the great work guys. !!!!

I have the same problem. Trying to figure it out.
4.3, what exact build are you using? I'll throw it on my phone and see if I get the same issue.
Also, are you using a custom ROM or a stock one?
I havent touched the rom, wasnt aware that I had to do that.
Dont know how to do it either.
Now I have the problem of me hearing the people sounding like an alien.
4.3 - try load the custom rom first before running android.

thanks dmoney
4.3, the "robot voice" is a known issue, and seems to be cleared up by running a non-stock ROM as opposed to a stock one, and supposedly helps overcome other issues as well, but that one in particular. You can find advice on which custom ROM's are recommeded for using when you want to run android, in the HD2 android forum section. Instructions on how to flash to a custom ROM can be found in the "links to cabs, ROM's, how to's..." thread that's stickied at the top of this section.
I'm going to try that froyostone build now (been meaning to anyway)....4.3, let me know if you're trying a different one than that.

HSPL is just a specific type of SPL. Make sure you read this guide, which tells you all about flashing on the HD2:

Thanks GOD!!!
I think I have done right.
I flashed it with the HSPL
Then downloaded Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh for tomoible htc HD2
unzipped it in to a desktop file with the custom.ruu file and Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh
Now i have to test it out and see if froyo 2.2 will work..
i was able to Flash my HTC HD2 with HSPL
And then load the Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh
I then tried to load the froyo 2.2 on the phone which loaded after a difficult time locating the sd file folder.
After I loaded it on I still have the trouble of the alien radio talking. Is there a way to fix the alien radio thing.
Also Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh seems to be using Edge instead of 3G. Is there anyway to change this? If I wanted edge I would have stuck with my Iphone.
The 3G and the big screen was my primary factor in switching to htc hd2.
This phone sucks with WM 6.5. But the screen size and Froyo 2.2 makes up for it. To bad HTC made a bad decision to load WM instead of android. What a loss
Any help from sirphunkee/God or any one that has knowledge in this would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Awww come on, WinMo isn't that bad. I actually like it.
I am using Aug 6 Energy Cookie rom, 2.10.50.26 radio and using Darkstone Froyo 2.1 clean version. I don't have the robo voice problem.
Oh yeah, if you are using a T-Mous hd2 on At&t, you won't get 3g service. T-Mo and At&t use different bands for 3g.
so there is no way to escape the robot voice without flashing a rom?

I have done the HSDL install, and then put radio version 2.10 on it.
was running Froyo ok, but telephone calls wasnt working (everything else was tho ) and the phone seemed to reboot itself into the standard stock HTC sense operating system.
am thinking maybe the radio was not the best for it? and I should change it, but not sure how. it says radio version still 2.10 at present
any help appreciated!
Nevermind, figured it out, running more stable with Radio 2.14, can make phone calls!

I do not understand exactly what you are trying to say. Are you saying that when you flash the radios, they do not work. Or when you flash the NAND ROM via MAGLDR, it doesn't load. If it is a radio issue, you may need to Run As Administrator in order for the flash to work. If it is loading a ROM and you have MAGLDR working, then go to Option 8 and load the ROM zip file from there. I would suggest looking at the ROM thread you are trying to flash to obtain additional answers there. The OP for this thread just wanted to know if it is possible to flash different radios onto their HD2 phone.

Hi,
Do you know that you have to install the radio from the 4-colored screen?

A few questions

Hello everybody.
I am new to the board - well, to posting at least. I have been browsing for information for a while and with thanks to threads here, managed to root my hd2 successfully, but a few things are still not working for me properly, so I have a few questions
---
1. I had to ring a company earlier today, which was an automated service and upon them requesting I click a certain number to be redirected to where I wanted, I clicked and it had no impact on the call - they just said they did not recognize a request and continued to repeat the question.
So, does anybody know the setting I need to change to fix this?
---
2. I am in the UK and on my old phone, a blackberry (Don't worry, I have seen the light now!) I could get decent connection, even when not in an WiFi area, therefore using 3G. With the HD2 however, even by changing the radio settings in the *#*#4636#*#* I am never able to get a decent signal outside of a WiFi zone.
I am using the Radio from these forums. The Leo one with the exe being named RUU_CUSTOM. I will try and find it later.
Is the problem with the radio and I need a UK specific one? I have tried GSM (all variations) from the menu stated, which is out local frequency I believe, but with no success.
Or am I missing something else?
---
3. My Android ROM was made for a NEXUS ONE (The gingerbread one), so could this be causing the problems above?
I had to use this one because I could not find another one which would work using CWM.
I tried numerous and after installing, it would not load due to "Kernal Load Error" - so I had to settle on this one.
My partner is American and has an HD2 also, but her's is the American model, and she has no problem installing the mass of the ROM's available around these boards. Could the fact my model is the UK one, make any difference? I would not assume so, but it seems there is a difference somewhere.
Does anyone know the reason for these points?
I thank you all in advance for any help you provide.
-Luke
Radio 2.15.50.14 is the recommended radio for using Android. I'm not too sure about the UK, but I've used my American HD2 on both Tmobile and FarEasTone [ Taiwanese carrier] without any problems, so it *should* work for you too.
The Nexus One build is one of the best Stock Gingerbread ROMs available for the HD2. That shouldn't be the problem. I'm guessing the problem is you might be using the wrong radio. I recommend flashing back to stock WM 6.5 and starting fresh.
Also, there's tons of ROMs available for CWM! However, as you have the UK model, I suggest staying away from a Sense ROM, as they require an ext4 on your sdcard for your model, and that's always been laggy for me. Try MIUI, CM7, or stick with the Nexus build is my suggestion.
Hello EB, and thank you for your reply.

Radio 2.15.50.14 is the recommended radio for using Android. I'm not too sure about the UK, but I've used my American HD2 on both Tmobile and FarEasTone [ Taiwanese carrier] without any problems, so it *should* work for you too.

That would be the radio I am using. The folder for it is named Radio+Leo+2.15.50.14 on my computer.

The Nexus One build is one of the best Stock Gingerbread ROMs available for the HD2. That shouldn't be the problem. I'm guessing the problem is you might be using the wrong radio.

I just looked at my phone and the ROM I am using is GRJ90 (NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.9 NAND), which I agree, works well other than these couple flaws, which are not necessarily related to the rom.

I recommend flashing back to stock WM 6.5 and starting fresh.
Also, there's tons of ROMs available for CWM! However, as you have the UK model, I suggest staying away from a Sense ROM, as they require an ext4 on your sdcard for your model, and that's always been laggy for me.

Ok, I am new to all of this and it took me multiple hours just to get android to run on this, but I did the NAND install, so I do not have the WM on my phone, even as a dual boot option.
I will perhaps try to find one though, should I not be able to find the answers anywhere else first

Try MIUI, CM7, or stick with the Nexus build is my suggestion.

I did try the CM7 ROM (TyphooN_CM7_v3.7.0-cLK), but that came up with the kernal issue too. I did try a fair few more, but they all did the same until I come to the nexus, so I stuck with it.
May have to take your advice and start the process over again. *yikes*
Oh, okay, radio shouldn't be the problem then.
Do you have MADGLR or cLK bootloader installed? If you have MADGLR, than that may be the reason why that particular CM7 ROM isn't working, as you tried out the cLK version.

Dang it! I did not even notice that, but given I have only rooted one phone, surely I can be forgiven for this slip?
Thanks a bunch. Now I will go try another because you are right, I am using MADGLR.
Thanks again
You may want to look into hd2 toolkit. It makes task29, fashing and installing magldr, clk, and recovery extremly easy. I've had problems with the typhoon cm7 and would not recommend it. Try doing a task 29 and try clk instead of magldr. Clk uses ppp and magldr uses rmnet. Rmnet is haveing trouble but ppp is good. Try a more up to date gingerbread edition for clk and I think that will solve your problems.
The main difference between HD2 UK and American is the amount of internal storage. UK has 512 where Americn has 1024

Does anyone have a smooth 720p recording on an Android rom?

Some of the Sense 3.0 ROMs have 720p recording. I don't specifically know which ones though.
Just look at a couple threads, the OP should say if 720p recording is supported.

720p recording is only supported in Windows Phone 7 Roms
