[Q] WP7 HD2 Flash Has Disabled Phone Function. SOS!!!!!!!!!!! - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Hey guys, please take no notice of my username, I am NOT a guru! Flashed WP7 to my UK HD2 yesterday. The ROM is incredibly stable and works perfectly in every way except that the phone function is crippled and the OS will not make or receive calls or text messages. I flashed the radio supplied with the package like everyone else, followed the instructions carefully (flashed my WM 6.5 many many times) and have searched the forums before posting. I even tried flashing other compatible Radios. Not quite sure where to go from here as I'm not a dev. Seems like MrMagicMushroom has been having the same kind of problem:
No replies. Can anyone guide me through the safe way to roll back to WM6.5? WP7 works great, wifi included but I think all that flashing disabled the phone function, can't make calls or texts.
I've been through flashing back to a stock ROM and starting over but the phone function is not working at all now. I have a 16GB SanDisk mircoSD card which read perfectly in WP7 even though it showed slightly less memory capacity than WM 6.5 did when I flashed it. Bottom line, I need help!! I read somewhere on the forum my microsd needs reformatting completely. Was this ROM safe for European (specifically UK) HD2 owners? Any ideas/help would be welcome!
N.B: All other OS functions (aside from the aformentioned phone function issue and the expected activation issues) work fine.
Love the work you guys do here btw. Hobbyists like myself really appreciate it.

It seems I have the same problem. My phone has been disabled as I am unable to make calls but everything else works fine. WP7 and back to 6.5 and back again, no phone. It would beep 3 times and hang up when I tried to make a call. Anyone experience this?

Having the exact same problem, beeping 3 times and all. I'm pissed off because everything else is working fine.

I'd try to re-flash the radio with a known working one and then re-installing wm6.5
The version of radio you currently have installed would help as well.

Thanks for the reply rbrookstx, I am running the latest energy rom with a 2.15.50.14 radio. I usually install the radio after the OS but I have nothing to lose so I will give your suggestion a try, thanks again.

I've tried that. I'm still running WP7 on my HD2 but I'm just using it for the novelty as a music player and testing out other functions since I have another phone to use in the meantime. The radio on it at the moment is the one included in the LEO70 WP7 package (Leo 2.15.50.14). I've even tried a T-Mobile specific radio I found (T-Mobile LEORadio_2_10_50_08_2) but I wasn't 100% sure it was compatible for UK or USA T-Mobile users. Either way this is strange since all my flashes have been smooth even though I've had this radio issue before before I sorted it out. I'll try your recommendation.

[resolved] phone function not working after "downgrading" a ROM

Hi,
I just wanted to tell you about a problem i had with my device.
I had the Khanx wm6.1 vanilla ROM for the last month.
Two days ago I flashed my device with udk R1.
everything was working fine.
I decided to "downgrade" my device to the Khanx old version.
after the flash everything is working good EXCEPT for the phone sounds.
I can dial (or receive) and make one phone call. After that, I can make phone calls but can't hear the tone (waiting,busy,etc...). The people on the other side can't hear me too.
Everytime I press the END button or the send button I can't hear any sounds whatsoever.
I flashed my device again with Khanx's ROM and nothing worked.
I messed with every single setup that I know on the device but nothing worked.
Currently, I got the udk R1 and I'm waiting for the new Khanx ROM (I just LOVE his ROMs).
Anyhow, is there anything that you can think of that I didn't do or done in a wrong way? did somebody encountered that same problem before?
Have a great day

Check Radio Version, Hard Reset
Latest WM6.1 roms are supposed to work only with the latest radio 1.59.42.15
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426203
Please make sure what currently runs for you, since these can be flashed independetly but sometimes are bundled.
Incompatibilities after downgrading are likely and discussed in above mentioned thread.
Two things come to mind:
1. Try a hard reset after flashing
2. also downgrade radio for example to Murata for the time beeing on downgraded rom
just wanted to say that I used Murata radio and it solved the problem.
sqeeza - thanks for you help.

Speaker + Mic problem

Hi Guys
If I receive or make a call then the speaker and mic goes dead, I have to do a soft reset to get it going again.
I've got this strange problem, I've flashed different custom roms and nearly all the radio roms but the problem is still there.
I have tried changing settings and nearly everything I could find to remedy this but no luck, please help.
hmm, thats a nasty thing, have you tried an official rom from htc? or the murrata radio or the newest radio?
ive had the same problem before with some roms, but then it was fixed when i updated the radio version..
im running on phamquam rom v44 now with radio 1.59.44.02 and combination thats working fine!
your cam and gps working correcly btw?
Hi Thanks for your reply
Everything else is fine, just this problem.
I've tried Radio Murata and the latest rom but still problem exists.
I'm running the phamquam v44 rom as well with radio 1.58.21.23, but i've been through all the radios I could find including the one you're running but the problem is still there.
I can only make or take only one call and then the speakers and mic go dead until I soft reset, i can run the music player but no sound.
This is really doing my head in.
By the way radio Murata totally wipes out the battery on my device within hours i have to recharge plus when I receive a call or make one it starts making a buzzing sound out of the speakers, so i had to soft reset and flash another radio.
FIXED:
I've managed to fix it by flashing it with a really old rom but when I upgrade it back to the newest rom versions I have the same problem again, so I guess i'll have to stick to the old roms for now.
hmm, thats weird, i dont have that much knowledge but maybe it is different hardware in polaris versions?
Just to let you know I have upgraded to the latest official rom and that works fine and the funny thing is my neighbour brought me his friend's Kaiser with exactly the same problem, so I tried a custom rom on it and that didn't work, then flashed the Official rom and that worked fine.
Any suggestions!

Crashing

Now i tried searching and found 1 thread to search but to no avail.
I have a HD2 ROM 1.43 from Voda. It freezes, alot always on contact information and i have to turn it off. everytime. its frequent as well like every day at some point.
is this normal at all or sould i get it replaced? i cant update the rom either cos htc doesnt recognise it? or flash a new rom because there is no hardSPL.
Thanks for the help
Have you read the threads about SMS problems? They are strongly tied to contact issues, just as you described, and they are known issues the HTC are (hopefully) working on as we speak!

In my experience your freezing issue is not common when accessing contacts. Only only SMS a few times a weeks, so this is not and has not been an issue. Perhaps I'm one of the lucky ones.
Perhaps you could update your ROM to 1.48 or 1.61. I updated from 1.48, my shipping ROM to 1.61 and while I don't really see a difference, both fast and stable, it may prove useful for you.
how can i flash a new ROM to my hd2 if I can't hardspl my device? htc doesn't recognise my s/n

[ROM]RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50 _RELEASE

Here new ROM for Mozart
http://www.filefactory.com/file/b48..._1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50_RELEASE.exe
DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THIS ROM FOR ANY OTHER DEVICE EXCEPT MOZART!
Enjoy!
THNX a LOT!
Hopefully it fixes my problems with sending text messages.
Will I lose my data (mainly my SMSes) if I install this update?
//EDIT -> according to several forums, I will lose my data...
and I haven't found any solution to backup my SMSes - yeah -.-
Is there anything I should regard or be aware of before updating?
//EDIT -> I just tried updating my phone and don't know how. It boots in the bootloader (RGB-test with some data on the device, SPL, the SD card, ...) just fine but the RUU doesn't find it.
I'm trying to flash it from a Windows XP machine - is there anything I have to take care of before I can flash it?
Or is there a real step-by-step manual for total dummies (I've flashed my HTC Diamond several times before without problems and have got no clue, why the PC won't find my Mozart).
The update process cancels with a CONNECTION ERROR [260].
will the hspa work on it from the tmobile usa after flashing this rom???
Invalid vender id
I have
INVALID VENDER ID
T-Mobile
Is there already a solution?
THX
nice greetings
Do you have the German T-Mobile version?
Mine flashed without any problems (after solving the driver problem...).
I have T-Mobile Austria.
but that this should be the same, right?
Greetings
Well, I'm not exactly sure.
However, if you think about the update failing with a wrong VENDOR ID - I guess it makes a difference.

are there any big noticable changes after flashing the new rom?
or is it just a minor security/stability update?
Be careful when uninstalling TMO apps
ROM is working very good, more fluent than stock version 1.25 - no problems found yet.
Still noticed the same problems with the stock ROM after uninstalling TMO shipped apps. When I uninstall Navigon the BING Map "Search" and "get directions" is gone/does not work anymore. When I remove "mediencenter" and plug in the headphones the phone is neither accepting nor able of making calls. However reflashing solves the problem - but you can't get rid of those TMO apps without losing functionality.

According to some other sites (just google the version number), this rom ships out with new devices. So no, it should not get you blocked, as it's a legit update.
Flashing is fairly easy: Backup everything you can, start you Mozart in Bootloader mode (pressing volume down while powering it on), plug it into your PC via USB, install the drivers if needed (done by installing Active Sync in XP, Windows Vista and newer should automatically find the needed drivers), start the updater and follow the instructions.
There is no official changelog, but several people think that the animations are smoother, the touchscreen reacts faster, ...
Seeing that there is no official changelog and the only thing we can do is assume what could have changed, I think there's no sense in discussing this. Especially since you can find several threads in other forums that discuss the changes in various lengths...
I haven't noticed any new problems after the update, so I guess it's at least as good as the previous version.
But this are just my thoughts

No you can't flash the HTC_Europe version, only the TMO_DE version.
TMO_DE stands for T-mobile Germany
HTC_Europe is the generic software for the non branded devices.
Doesn't make any difference except the useless apps you get from t-mobile.
But after you delete them everything is the same.
And for the record, You don't have to flash your phone at first... Installing new firmware IS flashing. so you just run the RUU and make sure zune is running and phone is running, not in stand-by.
And be sure to backup everything you want to keep, haven't flashed my mozart, but i think you lose all data when you flash it.
Sure someone else knows that.

Thanks for the answer!
I thought that I have to set the mozart in the bootloader mode, in order to flash. When I was telling it "flashing" I meant something like hspl like we had to do on the HD2, befor we could flash custom roms or htc roms on it.
edit: and is there any possibility to go back to: 1.25.2250.5 firmware (now installed on my phone)?
and last question this 1.28 version will not breake my warranty, right? It'S a normal t-mobile rom, isn't it?
Guys, I'm not sure I fully understand everything so far.
I basically have a Telstra (Australian) HTC 7 Mozart. From what I gather, I cannot flash this on my device until it is unbranded, is that correct?
hello to everyone.
I have a htc t-mobile mozart Germany but I live in Venezuela and I can assure you and proven DepNet.com for both 1.25 and 1.28
posted on this page to a friend Football and run to perfection
and also I can tell you that my phone came with 1.25 and the 1.28 istale him but then return to 1.25 and all is well.
and the echo for several times trying to place the Spanish language and if anyone can help I'd appreciate it forever
@ WinUser009:
HSPL was needed because we used to flash cooked (and therefore custom-made) ROMs, which were not signed by HTC or any other company able to sign them. These ROMs are unmodified and signed, which is why you can flash them without flashing any unlocked HSPL first.
Bootloader-mode is just a different mode to boot in - it does not need any changes to your phone!
I don't think that there is a possibility to go back to 1.25.xxx - but honestly why would you want to? But I have to admit that I have not yet tried it...
As to the warranty: that's a complicated matter...
This firmware is not official and my new Mozart (I got a new one after sending it in) still had the 1.25 firmware installed (someone posted that newer phones should ship with the 1.28). So there might be a person detecting that you flashed it yourself, if they keep sending out new phones with 1.25 preinstalled.
However, the phone I turned in had 1.28 flashed and I have not received any complaints when I sent it in for a replacement. So I guess it is up to your shop but it should not pose any problems!
@ameel
You can flash as soon as one of these things happen:
- custom roms are released that don't check for the carrier information
- you unlock your phone (somehow)
- Telstra releases an update
But as of now you can't flash these T-Mobile roms on your Mozart.
@minino405
Sorry, but I didn't understand your post. What did you try to tell / ask us?
I hope I could help you with some of your questions

[Q] Help ME, htc hd2 can't make phone calls

I bought a HTC HD2 in Norway. The windows app that came with the phone was in norwegian....after finding out i couldn't change the language by merely changing the settings on the phone I did some research to flash a new rom on my phone. I got HDSL2 and cracked the phone then flashed omega 26 in English on my phone. Everything seems to work but making phone calls, there is just no sound at all when I try to call someone however sms messages work just fine. Can someone please help me with this problem, its so frustraiting. I just want my phone to speak the same language I do, ENglish!
Check with your ROM radio version. If the problem is with the Radio flash, then re-flashing the radio would solve the problem since custom ROMs doesn't come with Radio. So just go the Radio ROM thread, flash the latest 2.15 and check.
Here is the link to Radio Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Hope that solves.
thank you so much for your suggestion, that worked perfectly Now I have a perfectly good fuctioning phone in English.
