[Q] HD2 Power button Issue - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I have search high and low on the forums for an answer to this issue and am not finding anything. I have a friend who I just helped set up Android on sd. I gave him same versions I have had great luck with. HE has a reoccurring problem with his power button. When you push it to bring the unlock screen up, it wont go right away. You have to push it several times to get it up.
It does not have issue in WM 6.5, just any Android op on sd card. He has tried many different version, hard reset the phone, formated the card and started over. Nothing fixes it! His sd card is a 6 GB class 4, brand new.
I have successfully run Android from sd for sometime now on my phone. NO PROBLEMS! I haven't had it do this so I have no idea how to help him.
Can anybody give me some direction???

I'm having the same problem. Every time I press the red button on HD2 it seems like the touchscreen get blocked. Somebody help us!

it may be sd card related. i have 2 sd cards:sandisk 16gb class2 works great. but toshiba 4gb class4 gives the problems you mentioned. there was a thread about sd card and android.search for it in xda.if your sd is not good for android you may face problems especially with sense sd builds.

look at this thread ...it might help u

Maybe you should try an other SD, try yours for example, if it doesn't work, try NANDROID? This will probably fix the problem, because here's no sd card required to run
Hope this helps.

It's definitely not SD related with mine... I think it's dust, anyone know how to clean the contact?

black screen problem in 2.2

Hello friends,
I have been facing black screen problem everytime in 2.2. İt always happern when I watch video or picture from sd card. Whwn I set the phone to sleep and open it, always black screen comes, something writes and phone closes.
I am using standart sd card and it is 2gb.
Can you help me about this problem?
hey, same problem, also using standard 2gb sd card.
try it for a day without your sd card in, worked for me, but i need sd card for music,pics everything so im going back to 2.1 til this is sorted,
greast rom, but need my phone working 24/7 and dont need to check it constantly to see if its hanged or frozen or the usual line of code,
but still great rom
I think it occurs from sd card, it happens whwnever I reach to sd card. I wonder why everybody does not live the same problem?
will it be useful if I format the sd card or get a better(class 6) sd card?
i think there has to be a common factor between it, obviously isnt software because there would be more ppl with errors and such.
ok my sd card were/are used in the following devices :-
xbox 360 as portable device to play mp3's through a cheapo usb card reader
win7 lappy through phone usb
similar stuff or ?
if ur still on 2.2 have you tried turning off debug mode when your using phone normally, might have an effect?
and does it also constantly remount when you unlock your phone?
sorry for the lots of questions but im interested now, this is the only thing stopping me from keeping 2.2, had 2.1 back all day and no issues, happy phone again
ı changed sd card and formatted but again crashes when phone unlocked.
any help please?
the black screen is known as screen of death (sod), try changing the kernel verson, or the radio, it is not a sd problem, i have done it and it is working fine on mine

[Q] WP7 keeps rebooting

I come from magldr 1.12 and I installed 1.13, after that I went straight to usb flasher and flashed a new rom but it keeps bootlooping, starting over and over again. anyone had this problem too? maybe some tips?
if it doesn't work after five more flashes, I'll put it back to stock first

hmm, I found the problem, I bought a new SD card today, this one is compactible, older SD cards aren't..
i would try a differnt sd card i havent had a single problem with wp7 since i flashed first time
Same here I have this problem with a Sandisk Class2 16GB restarting every 5 min or so tried everything formatted reformatted and nothing If I keep playing with the phone is no problem is look and unlock the screen normally but when is going in sleep mode by itself I can't start-it again everything is dead buttons lights don't came up, I give up and install a Sandisk class2 8GB no problems at all everything fine and no more restarting which led me to think not all the cards are good with WP7.

Your phone is the problem, It happened to mine and I went back to android, kept rebooting, then went back to 6.5 and it kept rebooting, turns out if it does that its a hardware problem and you have to RMA....

nothing todo with how old it is, its todo with random read/write speeds, for instance, most newer cards with high class values like 6 or 10 use some odd mechanics that increase sequential speeds but lower random speeds, that is the issue, if the card at any point isnt able to give the spec needed then it has issues, in some cases its only minor in others it wont even be detected.

evidently not, op stated the SD card was the issue and is now fixed when he replaced it.
interesting - I've now tried two WP7 ROMs on my UK HD2 - LEO70 and XBmod-WP7-V1.04b, with MAGLDR1.13 and 2.08.HSPL and 2.15.50.14 radio and got stuck in a boot loop with both.
The only thing that's fixed it was removing the SIM and both worked fine with any SD card I try. Doesn't make for a great phone though.....
Anyone got any thoughts?
EDIT - turns out it was my old T-Mobile SIM that was the problem. Have since tried two newer SIMs and both work fine with no bootloop!

hmm well sd card or not, FYI if your phone is overheating i suggest you revert to 6.5 immediately.

lol whats with these bold statements?
how do you know its overheating? where did the overheating comment come from? the OP didnt say as anything to the sort
you cant assume that because you have had or have read about an issue with overheating which produces these symptoms that every time a phone does the reboot thing has the same issue
however lets take it out of context, yes if you have an overheating device for a along period of time then its not going to be good, but heavy usage of the device, heavy WIFI or HSDPA usage will all make the phone rather warm, charging the battery will make it warm, if your device gets too warm it may just crash, which happens in 6.5 as well.
Hmmmmmm ?
Can I just say that I think this forum is absolutely amazing... I managed to get my HD2 running windows phone 7 in only about an hour...
I too also have this issue, but at the moment I have taken the memory card out and just reading away here.... now am not a newbie when it comes to technology, just a newbie when it comes to this forum lol
Judging with what has been said the Memory Card used in the Windows Phone 7 needs to have fast enough random access memory in order for it to operate with the phone (As If it was Solid State Memory in the actual phone)
So... having read as well from georo - I give up and install a Sandisk class2 8GB no problems at all everything fine and no more restarting which led me to think not all the cards are good with WP7
So I am now going to take a wee journey out tonight to try and find a memory card similar to what georo has said... a Class2 8GB Sandisk...
If I too can get it working with this card then we could maybe begin a small list that works with WP7 on HD2

From my readings, it's NOT a matter of speed of the SD card. Although, a class 2 card is pretty slow...you should consider at least a class 4 or 6.
But, I digress, the issue with the rebooting has to do with the compatibility of the SD card and WP7. For some unknown reason, people have had to try a hit-or-miss approach to finding a SD card that works.
I have been fortunate that my 3C Pro 16GB Class 6 card worked right off the bat. And you might want to read up on the meanings and speeds of the various SD Class designation before spending money on a Class 2 card.

Ok thanks for the reply dude... as I have said I will need to get upto speed with this stuff... at the moment I have a standard SanDisk 2GB MicroSD... so suppose if I do go and buy a class 4-6 it will be money well spent anyway as I can always revert back to the old WM6.5 ... or just claim it didnt work and take it back...
Just on a wee note... I noticed that the HD7 which is pretty much the same phone runs on a Class 2 MicroSD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883582)
Surely this should work?
also on this note... the card that comes out of a Stock 8Gb HD7 is a 8Gb Sandisk, Class 4...

[Q] Phone freezing/rebooting

Ive tried several WP7 NAND builds in this forum but everyone seem to give the same issue far as it randomly freezing and rebooting especially when the screen is off, Is anyone else having this issue and if so is there a solution?
Phone: TmoUS Leo
Radio: 2.15.50.40
Build: Frantic HD WP7
Yes ive had this same problem...would also like to know if there are any solutions...thanks
Try another SD card. Go for a SanDisk one as they are more compatible. WP7 doesn't accept many SD cards and you both have the typical symptoms of an incompatible card

Yes, and yes.
Random reboots are most likely caused by your MicroSD-card (WP7 will not work well with some cards). The only solution: try a different card.
There's a thread where people report which cards worked for them here.
ignore that thread
There is absoluetly no way of know what card will work.
statistically you have a better chance with a sandisk class 2 or 4 BUT that is not always the case, you may have a generic home brand class 10 that works but more likely you'll have better luck with those class 2 and 4 cards
No one is really sure why WP7 is having issues, the best idea so far is that its random read/write speeds that are the key, some class 10 cards have massive sequential write speeds but slower random reads which is where WP7 comes unstuck
Also, just because some one has a sandisk 8GB class 6 that works fine doesnt mean you will have the same luck with the exact same model because different cards use different components, even within the same make and model.
For example i have two 4GB sandisk class 6 cards, purchased on the same day at the same shop, both cards are model identical, one works fine the other has issues such as restarting, wifi not working and lagging
and to throw another spanner in the works i have a card that works perfectly, up until i fill the card to a certain point, then it starts all this restart business, if i dump a few hundred MB of music on the card taking it past that point it works fine . The card was been tested on the PC and i cant see anything wrong with it.
So, that leave me to think that for some reason when WP7 was trying to access that portion of the card for SYSTEM usage it was perhaps too slow to use or had some other issue, i can play music from that area however.
I just installed WP7 on my HD2 earlier today, was running fine for about.. 3-4 hours, I guess I was on it a good bit, not really letting it go to sleep for an extended period of time, but after I stopped messing with it, I noticed it rebooted itself, then it got froze on the lock screen, until it rebooted itself randomly again,, and then it did a complete wipe of my data on another random reboot?
Is this due to the SD card?
And can I just remove the SD card to fix this until theres some guarenteed cards that work with WP7?
or will it not boot without the SD card in?
Thanks alot.
it will work without SD but laggy and you will only have about 150MB of space.
good luck waiting for a card, its supposed to be unremovable so i doubt you will see over the counter products, im afraid its take a guess or buy an HD7
oop! yeah probably your SD
It is your sd card, sorry. Try a new one.
so nothing to do with how you format the sd card?
The guidelines
Welcome to the club!! u will soon get an error message umm in few weeks! then u will search.. u will undo hspl and all the things(sd card method even u will buy a new sd).. atlast it will kepp freezing.. the search and search... same omitted answers!! one fine day reboots then says!!!

the WP7 doesn't format the SD in options menu.
I tried this soluction and the phone appears more stable:
1- go in the
(caution----your data will be eraser)
settings -> about -> reset your phone
2- then the phone reset and after the MALGRD screeen push VOL UP and VOL DOWN
to appears the screen when you press the VOLUP to eraser all data and recovery the phone in factory status.
3- after this the phone start with the SD clear.
my phone don't freeze more after this steps.

I think your Sdcard does not match to Wp7.
Change another sdcard and try again
I am using Sandisk 8m that for your reference.

I have 2 cards thay are both sandisc one is 16 gb the other is 4 gb i think thay are both class2 but am unsure thare is a logo that says c2 in the top right of the cards
however I dont think thats what the probulm is!
but am unsure.
I realy hope someone will help me figure this out.
Are you having this problem with BOTH SD cards, or just one?
The SD card, WP7, HD2 combination is very finicky. My Kingston 8GB c2 seemed to be functioning perfectly fine, with the exception of 6-7 hours battery life w/ little to no usage. I also noticed that it took a while for apps to install at the last step of a hard reset on 7720.
Thinking that Kingston was good, I upgraded to 16GB c4. The device wouldn't even boot past the splash screen after leaving magldr. So, I changed to a PNY 16gb c4 and got to see just how badly my 8GB had been performing. The apps that took a while to install at the last step of hard resetting Mango were installed in an instant. And my battery life tripled. I don't have to worry about my phone dying anymore.
So, it's very likely that your SD card can be causing the random reboots. Use dev_storagelock to unlock the card you currently have installed. Perform a hard reset. Stop the process when magldr starts and swap cards. Allow the new card to be integrated into WP7 and see if the reboot problem persists.

It's probably not the ROM and most likely the SD card. That's what WP7 does. It's super picky.

i did a haed reset and cleard all crc data the problum still ocurs
the only diffrence to both of the sd cards a i have is size
so unless i was to go buy a higher class im gessing buying another would be pointless
the weard thang is this didnt alwase happen
i used bttfv1 no problums
had bttfv2 then all sorts of problums started happening first time i flashed most of the updates with zune
then was forced to start from scrach agin after i messed up my registry with advanced config
second time i upgraded to bttfv2 i used the one shot method and im not exactly sure but i think thats when i started haveing the issue.
You allready know what's wrong, it's the SD cards you've been using. Keep trying with class 2\4\6 Sandisk cards.

what was that a sarcastic remark? & no i dont know whats wrong because as i stated before i didnt have this problum before my previous installation.
i am useing sandisk class2 16gb i am useing the card that came with the phone i realy dont understand why that would be the issue?
whats the best card to get then?
Your SD card would be the issue if the card or some sectors on the card lacks the required random read\access speed. This could very well create problems on one installation while working seemingly fine on another.
I've already said what cards I believe gives you the highest chance of working, you'll just have to keep trying with those. Theoretically you could also try reinstalling the whole thing and hope that no critical files ends up on the lower speed sectors of the card, but I don't know what chance that would have of working.
The only marketable difference between the cards may be size, but WP7 doesn't really care about that. When I we say that it's picky, we really mean it. You can have great success with one card, and then put another in of the same brand different class and WP7 will no longer boot. SD cards affect battery life and everything.
By an SD card from Fry's, if there's one around. They've got a 15 day return policy w/o restock fee. I only went through 2 cards finding the right one to upgrade to, but was prepared to go through their entire selection and the sales girl even told me to not feel bad about doing it.
Hi,
probably you must calibrate battery or yours SD card not works correctly...

Droid X SD Card not reading

Well i bought a Droid X yesterday for my dad for 60 bucks phone works great just the backlight is dead. The Problem i am having is my micro sd card does not read i have formatted it in fat32 and still a no go. I have no clue what i am doing wrong. The SD card does read in my Xoom and my bionic so i know its not the sd card. and the chips in my phone and tablet does not work in the droid x.
SD Card remount
I had a problem, and have fixed the same problem for many friends, where my SD card could not be read. My first recommended fix is:
Goto Settings > Storage > Unmount SD Card
Then simply remount the SD Card once the unmount has completed.
If this does not work let me know and we'll try something else.
well i just found out one of the pins for the sd card is shot so the phone is shot. Is there anyway i can save the phone or is it just trash now.
I really don't like TouchWiz at all, so, when the first ICS sources became available, I started porting AOSP to our device.
There are still some major and many minor bugs, but ROM seems to be stable and usable.
Please look for buglist below, so you can decide, do you need to flash it or not.
I'll try to fix those bugs as soon as possible, so please, don't ask when something will be fixed, I really don't know for what. I'd like wast more for Louis Vuitton Luggage
Description: This is clean and clear ICS (4.0.3) without any modifications. This is not CM, just AOSP. It may be used with tablet or with phone UI.
Take out the SD card and put it in another phone and when something pops up, you press ok then when its done, you put it back in your phone at it should work fine

If you've swapped around several microSD cards in your phone and none of them work, your phone is the problem. It more than likely has a dead card reader.
The only fix for this is to get a new phone.
