I dont know why its so slow with wp7 but not android on my hd2. ANdroid stock browser is zippy and responsive while IE takes forever to load anything and is extremely jittery. Is anyone else experiencing this? Im using the stock tmobile hd2 16gb sd card.
which Radio Rom do you have on it ? 2.15.... Radio Rom is for faster Wlan and 2.12... has a slower Wlan but saves your battery
i'm completely the opposite, wp7 browsers web pages alot faster than the android sd-rom i'm using. In fact i haven't had a good android rom yet that was as reliable with wifi speed as wm6.5 and now wp7.
Basically all the android roms i've tried stag, and time out. I'm constantly having to "re-try" connection.
i guess being able to enable wifi N on both wm6.5 and wp7 maybe a factor.
Im using 2.15 i have no idea what im doing wrong to get such slow speed to be honest and its not just my house every where i go it is slow.

I am running an HD2 with Froyostone 3.2.
I purchased a G2 and switched to Android web...using the Android SIM in the HD2...does it make a difference..Im not sure.
When in WinMo i can access the internet..and in Android as well, but i get alot of drops in the Android.
Anyone else try this ?

Are you talking about your data plan on your contract/tariff?
They largely mean nothing important. APN's will invariable be the same (this especially rings true if you changed something on your tariff but nothing changed on your phone), it's just a way of the networks and carriers to try and make more money off people.
Thank you.
Can you tell me is there anything I can do to keep the network from dropping out so much. I read through some threads...but don't really understand what I need to so exactly
htc hd2 froyostone
Atm PPP data disconnects are a tricky beast to contend with. There are lots of threads that deal with the situation, but as far as I am aware (and it would be big news!) it's not been fixed permanently on any build.
I'm using Shubcraft 2.0 atm and my data only disconnects when I switch towers (basically when I travel outside of my local area) but turning my mobile data off then on again brings it back. It's a minor inconvenience to me, I know it's a great annoyance to others who aren't as lucky as me.
The only real advice I can give is keep reading those threads that deal with it, and see if other peoples fixes/workarounds work for you.
Thanks again....that's pretty much what I been doing disconnecting data...other than that..I have no other issues with this build
..I rarely even use the G2..hah
htc hd2 froyostone
Hi,
since some time, I am experiencing problems with my data connection. I dont really now, why but those persist through changes of AndroidOS, Radio and WM-ROM.
The Facts: HD2 european version, Operator: O2 Germany
The Problem in detail: When I am at home, I want to use my WLAN connection but some times, it doesnt connect to it. I have to manually go into the menu and reset my wlan-connection, so it works. Much more annoying is the fact, that when I am not at home (and WLAN is out of range), the phone often doesnt connect HSPA/3G/GSM/whatever and programms like maps, opera etc just claim to not having a data connection ready, though there are 2 to 4 bars. Only way to solve this -> go to flight mode, thet deactivate flight mode OR deactivate data connection, then reacivate it. Either way its annoing and mails won't be downloaded in this time, too.
My first setups, when I didnt have this problem where with WM OZDroid ROM, 2.12.50.XX Radio and many different Androidbuilts (no working compass / lightsensor etc - you know for sure ) Then I got to MDJ-Roms which I really liked and I never used another since those times. Still no Problems.
Then, by some time, I installed a new MDJ ROM - Mdeejay_FroYo_Sense_v._1.1_Clean_R75. This Rom needet to have PIN-auth disabled in Windows or it hung up in LOOP ( ). Sadly I installed a new WM-ROM and radio at the same time (I know, never change multiple parts at once... ugh!). Those where VBNDroid-Reloaded2-21913-Oct08 and Radio 2.15.50.14.
Since that time, I have this strange connection problem. I allready changed back to an oZDroid version and tried Radio 2.12 and 2.15. As Android ROM, i used MDJ eVo Sense Revolution 1.8 and now Mdeejay_FroYo_Revolution_v._1.6_S3. - Still the same problems.
I allready had the idea to reactivate PIN-auth but this option doesnt exist in my actual WM-OzDroid ROM.
Is there anyone experiencing the same problems or able to give me a hint in this case? I'am really not one of those persons "gimmie a new OS and I kill you if it doesnt work" - I know Android is work-in-progress but with all those superb fixes in past (lightsensor, compass etc) i cannot believe that a basic part like internet connection isnt working properly.
Thanks a lot for helping me out,
cmoe
RMNET
I think you'll find plenty of others who have had the same problem and some have had success with changing builds, kernels etc. There's plenty of stuff out there if you search on it.
I used to have data problems but switched to RMNET rather than PPP. You need to use a build that allows you to change this though and luckily for me, Bangsters 1.5 is such a build. It's not a sense build.
RMNET gets a bad press for it's speed, but to be honest it is perfectly ok for browsing the web. I leave all my downloading and updating till I'm on WiFi at home.
Regards your wifi issue, I have 'power control' widget on my homescreen and just switch WiFi off and on. Much easier than going into settings.

This might sound a bit noobish, but I was wondering if someone can recommend an android ROM which provides a stable data connection with the windows stock ROM WWE 3.14 (Radio 2.15.40) with SPL (not HSPL)
I'm currently using the mdeejay froyo sense (v2.4). The pain for me is that the 3G connection rarely works, even in areas with full bars, and the roamin data connection tends to drop out a fair bit as well despite full bars. I've tried rebooting, and that normally works but it is real pain to have to reboot on so many occasions (not to mention slow). I tried switchin to airplane mode and then switching the mobile network on again, but that doesn't seem to work.
whats up guys, so ive read a few sites that explain how to install android onto the hd2. i flashed one with no problems and it works flawlessly then i tried doing my cousins phone and his is messing up, contacts wont save and its locking up every once in a while.
So here is my question alot of the threads i was reading had conflicting information. So they are both flashed with hardspl already what is the lightest and most stable winmo to lay android over top of. Also what do you guys suggest for the best android rom to run over winmo and would a bootloader make the phone more stable. So i know what to do but i want to know from you experienced vets as to what is the most stable winmo that will run android great and what android rom to run for minimal problems. Ive read hundreds of pages on roms and such but everything is always outdated by time i get to it..
So what is working great for you guys. Sense is preferred on android and winmo will pretty much never be ran so no sense would be lighter im sure. Thanks for all the help in advance.
Also one more thing, as both phones are currently running android when they both try to connect to the same wifi router niether one will recieve data until one of the hd2 disconnects from the router. Also confused with that as my evo never loses internet when connected to the same router. For your info the router is a 2wire att dsl gateway. im thinking it could be a problem with the router but that shouldnt be a problem, so maybe the android rom i am using is not using its real mac to identify itself with the router and is causing problems. The wifi is encrypted with wep encryption.
a) You did NOT flash Android, you simply booted into android via your SD card.
b) Android does NOT run on top of windows, When you run haret it kicks windows mobile from ram and boots into Android kernel. Windows is not running at all.
c) Do not ask "what is best" questions they are silly and annoy everybody.
Stop been lazy and read, do some research and learn something, If you dont you end up with problems like your cousins phone.

A is correct, at least until NAND is done and stable.
Just to expand on B, the only thing I get out of different WinMo ROM's is speed of boot. Disable Sense if your WinMo ROM has it so when it boots to WinMo and kicks off haret, it kicks up faster.
C, yeah, I have to agree, you ask 1000 people about 100 ROMs and and somehow, you will end up with 1000 different answers.
Another thing to try is to backup your SD Card and format the SD Card (yeah, I know Dev's say it's not needed anymore, but why not?). Make sure it's a Class 6 or higher (DEFINITELY NOT a Class 2 and some reports show Class 4 work, but I try and stick with Class 6).

When running Android, the reported MAC address of your wifi card is not the actual MAC address, but one that can be changed.
Because of this, lots of builds have the same MAC address, and therefore you'll have this problem when connecting to the same wireless router. (If you're both running the same build then you'll definitely have this problem.)
Do a search - you can set the MAC address in the startup.txt file, but I can't remember what the actual text should read. It's been discussed in the forums before now, so it's there somewhere.
Or instead of being a jerk you can offer help and support or skip the thread entirely lol. Saves us all time.
Anyway, there are alot of ROMS out that cater to specific tastes. Me, I love Sense so that's my preference. Right now though I'm running a stock ROM from tytung that is running smooth as butter. No lags and data drops are almost non existent. But I know ill be running a new Rom within a few hours.
I'd suggest testing the builds on a week trial run or shorter. Try one out for a few days to get a feel for it and see if it has issues you don't want to deal with.
As far as WinMo, that doesn't really matter. I have a GTX full ROM running, I just don't use it except when restarting lol.

When Im using Google maps and the internet (latest version of Opera) my TD2 is dreadfully slow. Are there any tweaks to speed things up.
Im a bit peeved at the performance of my HTC because someone at work was using an iPhone and using a mapping app that zoomed in and out so fast i could barely believe it, and was connected via 3G, as does mine.
you're using a touch diamond2 ...now if you had an android phone, or something like the HD2 in your hand, you'd be much happier. It's not just your internet speed that matters, but your phone's too.
As it stands, some ROM's to seem to "handle" the internet (and therefore google maps) slightly better.
I personally recomend Energy or Dutty for first time ROMs...you can/will always end up cooking your own to suit your needs
I have tried a few different builds on WP7 and frankly I think it is great.
I do have one issue though, and that is my internet seem to be slow all the time. Better if I use Wifi, but with no wifi it is pretty pants. Updating app such aas facebook and weather can take a bit.
Just wondered if anyone else has this issue? Besides this, I love it.
