so im a little bit afraid of installing wm7.. and ive read something about a battery bug? can it happend that my phone can not be charged anymore (and is also bricked in a way?)
And there seems to be also something with a t-mobile1024 leo version/ danger to brick it while updating to wm7?
So my questions are: Where can i see which leo i have and are there still this energy problems?
PS: saw that it have something to do with the region also... i bought my htc hd2 in a shop (not t-mobile) for the full price, europe, germany

from within WM6.5 - go to Settings, System, Device Information, Hardware Information and look at the Flash Size.
WP7 can be installed on both LEO512 & LEO1024. Difference is it will only use 512 of the 1024M when you flash the rom.
If you follow THIS post and THIS post, you should be able to load WP7 on your HD2 without problem. Make sure you follow the directions, many people get excited and skip steps.
Before you start you must have HardSPL and magldr v1.12.
Good Luck!!
ah ok.. i first thought that it has maybe something to do with the cpu, not the flash memory
i looked it up and i have 512mb of flash memory
thank you for your quick awnser, i will follow ur advices
thank you
If it is from Germany it may be the European Leo, with the white buttons, not the red and green like the American brother.
is the a difference between the eu and us leos except the button color? or why is it mentioned sometimes?
offtopic: why are here so many people from romain?

main difference is the rom size. US 1024M and EU 512M. it is mentioned so you dont try and load something bigger than the phone can handle. WP7 works fine with both versions.

Are you sure it is not the ROM size 1024MB?
so im installed all and it seems to work fine, but what is with the energy bug? is he still existing? what happends if my battery gets to zero? cant i reload it, or what is now exactly with it?

you are correct. ROM. typo
is there still the energy bug?
Yes the bug is still there.
there is a thread were someone says he found a solution for this problem, but i do not think it is working(remove the battery and put it back).This will work only if the battery has some more power in it. If not..
For now the smart thing is to not let you phone die,or to have a external battery charger.
omfg! i thought i would be there any more and now!!
i want to rebot my phone and it didnt start! after i installed wm7 without problems. it was fully charged, what shall i do now?
it was full some minutes ago, i shut it down, want to restart but it stays black, nothing happens, what now? (

Should rename the title to "My POS HD2".
Not all HD2's are unstable like yours.
I, task29, install t-mobile radio 2.10.50.26, install energy 23569 cht and the phone is insanely stable and very fast, faster than 2.13 rom.

Have you tried using a different ROM? I have tried Energy ROM and it froze up on me a couple of times. I then switched to Elegancia 8.5 and I couldn't be happier with performance and stability, as well as eye candy. Only times it gives me trouble is when I do something stupid or install a CAB file and it doesn't like the ROM. The ROM itself is great, at least for me. I recommend you shop around and see what happens.

Yes I tried a diff. Energy ROM and it still gave me the same problem I didnt like Elegancia that much too much eye candy...lol...idk whats up with this phone it gives me problems the most when I flash the ROM then like after 3 days is when it will start to work a lil better. When I first flashed the ROM it had the problems but not as bad. But then later it got worse.

if its that bad you should be getting a replacement. There are two sets of hd2 problems (based on what people have been posting since i started reading in jan)
those who have a few rom basede glitches, like jittery keyboard, sleep of death, etc. which can be solved by flashing, or tweaks etc, and those whose phone, whilst showing similar effects to the first set, are far worse, and dont respond to tweaking.
If its a new phone, and its as bad as you say, dont fanny about with flashing and what not, get it replaced and start fresh.

Hey drift. I gotta go with sam's thoughts here and say that if it were me experiencing what you are, I'd probably be taking it right down to the store and getting a replacement. Just remember to get everything stock again first. Push if you have to, to make sure you get a new one and not a refurb.
One more question, before you punt it back...have you tried running it without the SD card in it at all? I'm not confident the issue is there, but since nothing else seems to be working, if you could try it and see if there's any change that would be awesome.
p.s. I think RDR will be my next ps3 purchase

Well I don't know that the problem will be there, but I've seen in a few examples where taking the card out actually clears up wonky behavior of various types. I just thought it was worth a try before returning it, and I wanted to just add your results to my collective troubleshooting experience on this phone.
There's a few card-releated thinks that can cause your phone to misbehave (bad card, etc), and this is just the best way to make sure we eliminate anything having to do with it. Hate to have you replace a whole phone if all it needs is a new card. But, like I said, there's still a pretty low chance it'll help

I was having similar issue on my stock ROM and could not get it past the boot screen. I took my SD card out (sometimes had to do that to my wing) and it let it boot. As soon as it was booted I did a factory reset and it was good. This was when I first got the phone and was putting all kinds of weird stuff before I actually began doing a little research. Hahaha. But yeah new T-Mobile ROM and Cookies and running like a champ!
At this point I doubt there are refurbs floating around. Too new. Isn't there something you can dial in to show you whether it's a refurb or not from your phone key pad?# something or other?

Well ive tried every step I could to try and fix it nothin work so maybe its bad hardware im sending it back and there send me a new hd2 so will see as soon as the new one gets here how good that one works.
Refurbs are indeed around, but mostly only coming from T-Mobile Customer Care as warranty replacements for phones in need of exchange that are beyond their initial remorse period... Definitely confirmed on this one.

Good Day to all.
Apparently I have bricked my HD2. I have a TMO US version, installed 2.08 and then the rom. Installed a TMO UK version of 1.43 and now the phone will not even turn on. Any way to fix this prob? When I plug into computer or wall charger you can hear it connect, but no red light or activitiy whatsoever. Is it totally dead or is there a way to bring this back to life? Thanks for your help in advance.
U have HardSPL ur TMOUS and the installed a custom ROM and then u changed to UK version of 1.43? If i understand u correct?
Afraid to say that but think u just got a pricey paperweight. Sorry Bro
I installed HSPL 2.08 Then I attempted to install a TMO UK rom version 1.43 Phone went black and haven't been able to get any activity out of it since.
yep its a paperweight... btw why did you install a uk version rom? its a known fact that it may brick your phone.. call tmo and get a replacement if you can.. sorry bro i feel your pain!

my HD2 doesn't start, charge, no orange light nor green light, can't hard reset
i tasked 29 it day b4 yesterday, was trying to flash kumars rom then slept off.

Hello all....
I have been using WP7 on my HD2 for a week or so.
I love the smooth interface and speed (nice work DFT)
The battery drain was really really annoying. Could barely get half a day on minimal use.
As a last resort, I flashed the WP7 rom again. This time, when I restarted and before first boot, I did a hard reset (press and hold volume up and down on the MAGLDR boot 1234 GO GO GO screen). It asks to press volume down twice to hard reset.
Would you believe it??? I have been using WP7 for half a day now. Internet, e-mail on etc and I'm still (on what looks like) approximately 60%.
Battery drain is much, much better.
I think the hard reset after flashing probably reset ALL of the counters etc.
For those with problems, try it, you might be surprised, but YMMV....
Good luck and Viva DFT!!!!!!!
All you actually did was read the instructions on how to flash your rom. Well done!
So would I lose all my apps and access to the market place if I hard reset my device? Cause I definitely don't want to go through the chevron process again. Thanks

Maybe, but users are still reporting high battery drain. The instructions are not THAT clear on this particular point. i.e.: Hard Reset BEFORE First boot
I have tried hard reset after booting into WP7 and battery drain was same as before. (high)
Im no noob. I had to search high and low for even a slight mention of that particular point.
As I said... Take It or Leave It!!!!

You've only been using your phone for half a day when you've come up with the conclusion that you've solved everyone's battery problem. That's not much testing.
Oh and I do think its very noobish to have installed this rom in the first place without reading the instructions that appear right in front of you whill running the program. It appears you just clicked next next next.
Start testing with different radio roms and come back in a week with some proper results.
Hey! Just flash 2.14 or 2.10 radio and stop posting all this crap.
High drainage was found on 2.15 radio ver.
To skunz35: Yes you would lose all your settings and data. Part of the WP7 territory
Well, thanks for all the '****ty' comments....
I can understand why a lot of people don't bother posting.
Radio... blah, blah, blah!!! Done.. Yawn.
Test for more than half a day.... Really?????
I'm just posting my findings to help a few people out there. I've actually been testing this for a month now, as I got hold of a 'pre-beta' copy. I'm in I.T. and have a few 'contacts' everywhere.
These comments are not helpful or constructive. I consider the two people who have 'blasted' my observations 'NOOBS' in every sense of the word.
These forums are supposed to be for help and opinions. This sort of 'nay-saying' is what most forums nowadays are awash with.
Count down! You think you are the 1st one who found this problem? You think this dublicated thread is very helpful? I had battery problem too, I was on 2.15 radio, now reflashed to lower version and now it's solved. Many people are confirmed that. All tests was on stand by mode but not in games or whatever what are you doing there! And don't "blah... blah..." on me!

I'd agree with trying different radios. Its most likely due to one or more of the following.
1: Different radio's
2: Different SD cards
3: Magldr 1.12
4: A bug in the WP7 rom

I can say that this is the case. Its been 5 hours and Im still about 70%. An hour of music, A couple of calls, lots of texting, installed 3 games over wifi. Facebook (from people hub), 2 emails sync'ed At all times. Radio 2.14.
I took my phone from the charger around 7.30 this morning, its now about 18.30 so tahts 11 hours. According to the task bar its at about 90 percent, so yeah, drain seems better than 6.5 roms. Admidetly, I hardly did anything with it. Received and read some emails via gmail push, and sent a few facebook and text messages.

Man.... you really don't know when to quit, do you?
You obviously didn't read my original post completely. Tested for half a day using hard reset before WP7 first boot. Hundreds of other people have had the same problem. Posted, because already (half a day, admittedly) the battery drain was a huge improvement over the previous month's testing with different radios, batteries, BIOS configs etc. The pre-beta was a ***** to install. It didn't have the lovely DFT packaged installer. Very 'hands on'.
I also never claimed to solve all battery problems or to be the font of all WP7 knowledge! Just an observation, and hopefully a help to other users who may be having difficulties
This from the guy who thought he only had 200 MB on his SD card after flashing WP7.
You've told me to read.... I say the same to you. What part of 'hidden partition' (JBOD RAID if you're interested) don't you understand?
C**t !!!!

So you are betatesting WP7 update from Microsoft on hacked HD2 with heavy battery drain. I see... thats how its done.
EDIT: Sorry for the spam, but these posts are driving me crazy.
I've been booting Android from the sdcard for a bit now but with the occasional freezes and really poor batt life, I am hoping the NAND method would help alleviate that at least.
Looking for a NAND rom for TMobile USA HD2s with the least amount of non-functional stuff obviously . There's so many NAND roms in the NAND dev page, I don't even know where to begin.

It depends , do you want sense or not , froyo or gingebread , good battery life or good performance, build where everything is working or where something isnt but you dont care about it.
try some builds and if you dont like them flash another one.
You should try a RAM rom in the sd section. Those are very fast. Faster than the NAND one im using now.only reason why im using NAND now is because Im too lazy to go back.

Looking for stability, good battery, wifi (usb or hotspot), most things work. Looking for something where I can install and not have to keep changing over and over again.
Sorry to thread hi-jack you, but I also need some advice.
I need a froyo rom that has these:
- best battery life
- everything working
- sense ui
- runs very smooth
- NAND
Thanks.
Guys the only and best way to find a rom that works for you is to try them yourself.
Go and read the 1st post of some topics, decide which one you like sound of and flash it. If it turns out you dont like it move on.
It clearly states what works and what doesn't in each build topic, If you want something more stable go for a newer build and check change log.
I think you can pick your choice easily by elimination .....
1) choose only Tmos roms.
2) Sense or no sense,
then you will only end up with a few roms.......
Hi,
JUST FOR DEVELOPER EDITION
Just to inform you guys, If your battery is ending faster than normal, download and run the RUU on you device. It will be back to normal.

Lastest RUU: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_411207_signed_2.exe
Also, there is no need to relock your device to run the RUU (at least here was not needed)
How did you get to that conclusion ? I think it's more a user/installed app problem. Something drains the battery obviously but it's more often some rogue app hiding somewhere.
The ruu ends all of that indeed because it's flashing the phone to factory stock and with that deletes ALL apps present on the phone, so this method is very easy to suggest. If the RUU doesn't fix it it's more likely that you have a faulty battery.
If you suffer battery drains i suggest to install a battery/system status app that can detect the problem.
Also i don't think this is a very common problem at least not only for the dev edition. If it was the Q&A section would be filled with threads like "why does my dev edition with android L drain so much battery"
This is like the holy grail of answers to issues on the phone.
- My phone doesn't boot : run the ruu
- My phone has no data : run the ruu
- WiFi doesn't work : run the ruu
I think a ruu as a solution is kinda short through the curb if you know what i mean......
Edit :
As additional information :
A ruu runs only on a s-on device with a locked/relocked bootloader
Or
On a s-off device.....doesn't matter if the bootloader is locked/relocked or unlocked

I came to that conclusion with my phone, I used it for 5 months, so I knew that the battery takes 2 days to reach 1%. After the update it started to reach 1% in 30h.
So I used the ruu, installed and set up everything again, so the phone and applications "behave" the same way... And after 1 week using, I confirmed that was something wrong... And it's back 2 days using...

Glad it worked for you, but i seriously doubt the ruu as a fix. I wonder what BBM could tell you at that point, i think a lot .....

I agree with you, for sure that is the apps... But as I don't know how to discover which one and whatever else is causing this..ruu is a solution..

Yes the ruu is a sort of solution, but you can post this for every phone on every carrier and in every country over the world.
And people have to set up their phone up again from scratch and that can be a big problem.
Maybe uninstalling just 1 app could lead to the same result. That's why i said earlier that the ruu is not definitely the fix. Check some battery stats apps and see what's eating your battery, check wakelocks and such. Then it's pretty easy to locate the problem.
What i ment to say in general here is that a ruu as a fix is too easy, then it would make the Q&A a lot smaller. As anyone who came across rom issues would just run the ruu and be done.
And don't get me wrong i didn't write this to make you look like some non knowledgeable guy....just discussing different options/opinions

both very relevant solutions
1 is easier but wipes user data
2, conserves user data but takes a bit more concentration in killing those naughty apps :good:
as it is there's two ways to convert to dev, My (long winded now RUUS are out) step by step or the other thread is a RUU solution.
This is why i love these forums as pooling together and discussions like this give people choice and benefit the community
