Official T-Mobile USA HD2 ROM Upgrade! - [2.13.531.1]

Here are a few links with information (including the HTC website download mirror) regarding the official update from T-Mobile USA, courteously provided by: Pocket Now!
Upgrade Announcement!
ROM Information!
I will most likely be applying this update within the next few days. Although, I'm a little hesitant just because I figure that certain, "Manila modifications" won't operate properly on this upgraded T-Mobile USA version... NOT YET ANYWAY!

Thanks,
Downloading

Install new ROM and restore from Sprite
I plan to install the new official ROM and then do a full restore from a Sprite backup that I will have done while on the old ROM.
Will that work
Do I need to do anything different with Sprite or is it just a normal restore
Thanks for any advice.

I have downloaded this version and installed it...i think its slow and it lags. so i got rid of it and i flashed back old one.

I wouldn't advise that...
Just go ahead and perform the usual steps of "starting fresh."
It's not worth risking any system "tainting" that could occur in the process of another system recovery from a different ROM image.
Besides, if you don't think the update is worth performing in the first place, stick with your current setup.

Really?
Most everyone that has provided a testimony for "TmoNews" has suggested that only improvements are noticed... nothing negative to report.
I would suggest that you CLEAR/CLEAN the RAM after the installation. Use a program such as Memory Maid to run a few system maintenance diagnostics.
Otherwise, give this "new" ROM time to "settle" on your device. 24-hour tests are usually the best idea.

I have installed the new ROM. Things are very similar to way they were before. Didn't feel HD2 getting faster or slower. However, I have a strange problem now: Right now I don't have a data plan so I'm using my WiFi connection to get to the internet. One of the first apps I installed after flashing the new ROM is Omarket. Few hours ago, i.e. before flashing the ROM, Omarket was working fine but now it cannot connect to internet! Opera mobile works fine though (I downloaded Omarket with it!). There are other strange things going on as well: I have an MS exchange account. I can sync my emails over WiFi but contacts do not get synced! It seems that somehow some programs can use WiFi and some others cannot. Couldn't figure out what's going on yet...

Any changelog ?

I saw on the Freeware Pocket PC twitter that they where having problems with the OMarket, Maybe this is what you where experiencing. Did the regular market work?

Haptic feedback on Swype.... interesting.
How well does Swype work for holding down a key to get the alternate symbol (like numbers & punctuation). On mine you can hold if down for days and never get the popup - I had to install version 2 to make it work.
BTW - I think I like the layout for version 2's symbols better, especially the numbers, but might be interesting to try out this Rom after enough people give feedback on it.
Missing Twitter tab would be... odd.

Why is this release coming from a HTC web site rather than T-Mo? I'm thinking of upgrading but dread going back through all the settings.

This problem appears to have been fixed in the new ROM.

One thing I noticed is that the new T-Mobile Help app hooks into the dialer and hijacks attempts to dial 611. Dialing 611 brings up the help app and then eventually the phone may dial 611 itself later.
The whole effect is... bizarre and unwelcome.

I cant get the My account or Help application to work. When I click the icon it shows me the initial screen and says "the my account application will be downloaded shortly" and just sits there. Did I somehow mis-flash the rom? I can't imagine this is the case.

Because the phone was created and manufactured by HTC. Just like Apple releases the updates for its iPhone; not AT&T.

my account application works fine on my hd2. overall, the updated rom seems to run a lot smoother. however, i still get the lag in sms but the freezing issues (to the point where i had to take out the battery once or every other day during sms) seem to be gone.

[Q] How do I remove MotoBlur from my Milestone 2?

(I am not sure if this question should be posted here or in Droid2 forum)
Anyone can help me to get MotoBlur out of my Milestone 2?
Is there anyone developing ROMS for this device?
I will be very happy with a standard clean 2.2 or 2.3 for Milestone 2.

just install some home replacement... launcherpro, adw... and set it as default launcher.

When you install Launcher Pro it automatically becomes the default launcher and you can't get back to Moto. BLUR
You have to uninstall to see blur again

I already have LauncherPro as default launcher, it is installed since first day.
But this is not answering to my question, my question was how to remove MotoBlur!
EDIT: Motorola´s explanation for MotoBlur:
So what is MOTOBLUR you might ask? Well it’s not a phone as you might initially think. It’s a new service, a new skin which will be able to handle all your social networking needs. Motorola’s own Sanjay Jha showed everyone that half of the US mobile traffic is going to social networking sites. That means Motorola’s future phones will cover that aspect extensively.
MOTOBLUR will be able to sync email, contacts, photos from any source and get it straight to your home screen immediately. Whether it’s coming from Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, corporate email, MySpace, Gmail and more, you’ll never miss a thing with MOTOBLUR as the feature lets you manage your email addresses and social networking accounts. Or that’s what Motorola wants us to think.
So let’s check out some features:
Update social status on multiple social networks at once
Great visual experience
Check out friends’ status updates
Browse through messages in aggregated view or by account
Contacts’ status updates shown when receiving an incoming call
Remote delete in case phone gets stolen or lost
MOTOBLUR servers support
All we need now are some really hot Motorola phones to see these features of MOTOBLUR in action!

We need a new Thread for the Milestone 2
Indeed, I have root on my milestone 2.. with clockwork recovery...
but blur is still there... Need Cyanogen...

I've finally got my MS2 from Tim Brasil yesterday. First time on Android and can't figure out what belongs to Motoblur and what cames from Android. Is it just some sofisticated widget? What i'm gonna loose with no Motoblur. And what's the gain? Performance?
Edit: already notice it has its own message app, automatic back up with motoblur server, some contacts attributes, a function to link two ore more contacts from the same person etc. Not sure if I'm gonna miss it or not.

Motoblur is not just a launcher. Many useful widgets like News reader, Weather, Media sharing and the Docking station display rely on Motoblur to run. So make sure you don't want to use those features before you try to remove motoblur

Motoblur is also a number of services in the background. Services like the over-the-air-update-scanner, remote-data-eraser, remote-device-finder etc. You cannot just apply Launcher Pro, AWD Launcher, or something similar to your MS2 and think Motoblur is gone for good -> you just "hide" the Motoblur-surface, not deactivate the services.

I have actually used titanium backup to remove a large amount of the blur services it has significantly increased both the variety life and speed of my phone. give it a shot!

Ditto, I can confirm that there is a very significant difference, second day of owning the phone I had ripped out most of the motobloat and its much faster, battery lasts a solid day of moderate use, I've managed two days (struggling by the end of second day) with calls only.

For those who have not english as their language on the Milestone 2 switch to english and reboot your phone. Then the Apps have the names Shellite postet on his Link above.
Btw.: Sorry if my english is bad. Its not my mothers tounge (i am german ^^)

Alternatively, another forum member translated my list into the german equivalent.
see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10825627&postcount=32

I'm brazilian and i found all of the apps to freeze, just translating the original name.
The list:
Code:
nconnected 2.2
Date and Time 2.2
ES Musica
Help Centre 2.2
HipHop Official
Home screen tips 2.2
News 2.2
Quick Contacts 2.2
Revolver TV
Rock On Altitude
Social Messaging 2.2
Social Messaging Service 2.2
Social Networking 2.2
Social Sharing 2.2
Social Status 2.2
Toggle Widgets 2.2
TrueCountry
Weather 2.2
World Clock 1.0
I installed ADW Launcher EX and then froze 'Home 2.2'. (* DONT FREEZE HOME 2.2 UNLESS YOU HAVE INSTALLED A LAUNCHER REPLACEMENT FIRST *)
In addition to the above I have also frozen these items, which I do not use, but which may impact your usability:
AdService 1.0
blur.res 2.2 (no idea what this is)
BrowserMessage 2.0
com.motorola.phoneaddons 2.2
Data Manager 2.2
Data Manager Service 1.1
Messages 2.2
Messaging 2.2
Sticky Note 2.2
Universal Inbox 2.2
Yahoo Contacts 2.2
I am still experimenting with other apps/packages, I have not tested if MMS still works after freezing messages2.2/messaging2.2, but I dont use it anyway.
So far my phone is running super fast, typically see's ~150-200MB RAM free, plus using Milestone Overclock I'm running 1.25ghz @ 62VSEL.
I'll see if the milestone 2 will be faster without this apps.
EDIT:
I REALLY realized that the phone was much faster after that. I'm using the Zeam Launcher and the transitions are softer.
Don't know if it's a psicological effect but one thing i can tell: With a new launcher and freezing this apps i have a REALLY FASTER phone.

can you please specify, which application does what? I guess Some of them might be actually usefull?
also it would be very usefull to know which ones have the most significant impact on speed and batterylife.
edit: also I love the Facebook widget, is it possible to extract from motomlur and use it with launcherPro?

I am curios about the same thing: what service/app included in motoblur does what?
What is part of motoblur's functionality and what is stock android?
I.e. linking Facebook contacts with Google contacts, is that motoblur or android working there?

TOTAL NEWBIE on wild fire

hi guys. im TOTALLY new to the ANDROID
first impression on android? IT ROCKS!!
i totally love it.
got a few questions though.
1. with the facebook link to your person profile, some of my friends on facebook is not showing when i try to link them
2. with the gps thingie. when i click on maps and then use directions, it would not provide me any result. is it possible that it has something to do with my location?
3. i still got the 2.1 version, and i want to use the 2.2,
. do you have any direct download link for the 2.2 to be saved on my pc and how to update it?
thanks guys

1. with the facebook link to your person profile, some of my friends on facebook is not showing when i try to link them -
no idea
2. with the gps thingie. when i click on maps and then use directions, it would not provide me any result. is it possible that it has something to do with my location?
Settings - location - and enable wireless networks. you can also turn on gps but i would only reccomend that if you have to since it kills the battery
3. i still got the 2.1 version, and i want to use the 2.2,
. do you have any direct download link for the 2.2 to be saved on my pc and how to update it?
Either use the ruu or settings - about phone - and hit the updates button abd then check now. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ROOT IF YOU DO THAT

YES, I made yesterday a real good ( I think so ) tutorial for a friend to update his Wildfire from 2.1. It is totally for beginners and took me quite long with all that pictures and so on.

[Q] Two Questions - Wifi Tether and Default SMS in Froyo

So I've finally jumped in and taken a Froyo updated rom (latest Midnight rom.) I have a couple concerns though:
1. Wifi Tether - On 2.1 I used MobileAP for Infrastructure wifi tethering capabilities and 4g speeds. What is the standard to use with Froyo? What about USB tethering? I refuse to pay 40 bucks for something I'll rarely use, but should be able to when necessary. Any and all recommendations that will allow me to get USB and Wifi tethering, preferably at 4g speeds, are welcome.
2. SMS Program - On 2.1 I had the option to go into applications and "clear default" for messaging so I could set Handcent as my default messenger program whenever I clicked the messaging link on my homescreen dock. This option seems greyed out on 2.2. How can I change it so Handcent is my default? It's pretty annoying to have to go into the link to clear out the number of new messages recieved in both programs.
Thanks and I look forward to your responses.

For handcent, if your using touchwiz, open app drawer, hit menu>edit then drag Messaging out of the dock, and replace it with handcent. The reason its grayed out, is because handcent is still default. Hope this helps.
Sent from my always stock, EC05 Epic 4G

1. Wifi tether is the only infrastructure available on froyo
the are the 3.0.0 versions here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...mmary+Uploaded+ReleaseDate+Size+DownloadCount
They are experimental so make sure you have a backup either nandroid or inportant info and apps in titanium
u may have to try different pre versions as everyone has different needs depending on whether you epic likes a version better then someone elses or your rom likes certain things.
Another not about wifi tether on 4g start wifi tether in 3g first then switch on 4g
Wired tether can be found here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964925&highlight=wired+tether or on the code google site... u said you were on the midnight rom so you should have a compatible kernal with that
2.
To make a messaging service default: the easiest way is:
1. Goto contacts
2. select message
3. then select make defauly box when it ask you what service you want to use (stock or handcent)
4. Click handcent and you set
Hope this helps..

Very good information from both of you. I wasn't aware you could replace icons on the touchwiz drawer until you pointed it out, thanks! It's just too bad the Handcent icon won't show how many new messages I've recieved. That would be truly epic. Anybody know a way to do that?
And thanks for the links to wireless tether and wired tether. I've installed wireless tether, I'll try them out when I get home.

that is some bloat!! they all seem to have bloat but your version and the Korean variants do seem to have a lot more,i'm sure the phones must run a little better once all that is removed, nice one for getting rid.

It has been running smoothly. Also happy not to be constantly nagged by sprint optimizer and other useless apps.

Would the bloatware you removed be safe to remove from another model? I have the d803 canadian variant and haven't seen a list of safe apps to remove yet.

I'm not sure how you lost vibration or why your keyboard loads slow. I am not having any those issues. I would recommend posting a screenshot or list, that outlines the differences between mine and yours.

For the most part yes. If you are not a risk taker, I would recommend you use Titanium Backup Pro and freeze the app before removing it (and of course create a full TB backup).

yea I have titanium backup, learning how to use it right now. I'm only rooted though I dont have twrp or cwm installed. Is it a big risk for me to be doing this or do I need them installed because I only plan to root no flash or roms for me.

I can't say with 100% certainty as we have different models. I can tell you from my experience that I was fine with TB backup.

Anyone know if G2 has that "Carrier IQ" people have been referring to. How can we remove it If so?

Thanks for the post!!!

Awesome post! We should keep this populated with adverse effects so we can understand what some of the apps do or don't do.
I froze most of the apps you have listed without any real noted problems.
Thanks!

I'll do my best to update the original posts as others let me know what they find or if I discover any adverse effects. I'll note, having to work with sprint programming has been a bit dicey with what I've frozen. No permanent damage thus far.

Is there a way to stop this from popping up every time I power on the cell?

I would try re-enabling the sprint services again and then freeze them all leaving update-device the last one to freeze.
I took a closer look and we match. Another option is to give apply frozen filters in TB and post them so we can compare.
What I think is happening is it is still trying to do a firmware check and update (assumption).

Update Device Stopped
ChrisFSU,
I've reverted my phone to stock and went through the list again. I only get the error when update-device is not frozen. If it's already frozen and you have a NAND backup feel free to uninstall. Just keep in mind that you will not be able to use any of the update functions of the phone like PRL, profile, unlock etc..
