hi guys, after installing WP7 on my hd2 its seems all nice and smooth but if i go into say people or try to load an app it sometimes gets stuck for a minute or so and i seem to also be seeing a hell of a lot of the loading screen..... just wondered if this is a common thing or am i having some strange issues with my phone??
Try to replace SD card with higher class (8 or 10)
i got the same problem sometimes. when i installed the first dft rom, it was super smooth as you would expect. but since going to the custom roms, i have to reinstall wp7 a few times before it becomes smooth. syncing takes forever sometimes as well.
i haven't reinstalled the original dft to see if its a rom problem, but my class 2 card was great with it

Are you on the 7008 release of the custom ROMs? And no, a 7008 Spoof version does not count. DFT and many of the customer ROM's are on 7008. I would suggest you try installing WP7 version 7008 of either the original DFT or the customer ROM's. Personally, I would just go ahead and use the original DFT version and install add-ons as needed. You just don't know the quality of the mod'd ROM's.
That could be my problem then I'm running xbmod 7004 build, I've looked but can't seem to find a 7008 rom, could you suggest one or post a link to it please, probably just me being thick but every rom I've seen so far are 7004 or 7008 spoofs
you are correct, they are all spoofs, quite what his talking about i dont know.
there is only 1 release, that is the original DFT one, some folk have fiddled with some files and reg settings and have released their "own" ROM but its essentially the same as the DFT one.
as for the slow downs its quite likely its an SD card issue, firstly go to the about page in settings and see what your free space is. If the card isnt working at all it will be about 150~MB or there abouts
If your showing a good chunk of the size of your SD card free then thats good but doesnt mean that the SD card is still compatible. dont go and buy a class 8 or 10 card, WP7 doesnt need sequential speeds which is what the class ratings are, it needs good random speeds and many folk have found that class 2 or 4 works best, thats not to say a 6 or 10 wont work, but it is less likely.
Oh and there isnt any confirmed lists, its complete luck im afraid!
Ah hello again dazza..... i bought a class 4 4Gb (biggest i could afford) as per your advice, thats what im running with the lag issue, although it seems to be speeding up slightly, but now ive lost my data connection.... lol damn phones,
ive ran htc conection setup and still no data connection, is there anything else i can try??

you could try and add the APN manually, you'll need to search out on google, APN settings "carrier name" unfortunately the SD card issue seems to have no end. something you could try is dumping a wad of music on it through zune. My card has an issue with random resets but only if i delete 200MB of music, add it back and it works again, as with all things to do with this issue, its luck
Got it workin bud, I told it to use Tesco mobile instead of o2, rebooted, then told it to go back to o2 then rebooted, then it worked lol.... Strange
I bought a new MicroSD which is class 10 (old one is only class 4) and the lag is gone! Very smooth and installing app is a lot faster.
I'm using a Class 2 16gb micro sd with WP7 7008 and it's not laggy at all. Make sure you do as task29 if you have previously installed many custom roms

This has happened to me, however Format FAT32 is a fix, but I chose to just scandisk the card. Found a couple errors, and I deleted the temp files and fired up Haret. All is good again.
Long story short some errors on the card happen and a quick scandisk/chkdsk should fix them and Android should be happy again.
You can perform this on your computer or with any storage card tools in Windows Mobile prior to launching Haret.
Hope this helps some people...
Just an idea, can we add a chkdsk command in android boot loader?
I have same issue before.
SODs are caused by sd card errors?
i didnt realize that.. is it really only errors on sd cards that are the cause of SODs? or are there other underlying factors affecting SODs such as mayb speed class of SD cards?
im using the class 2 8gb which came with my hd2 and my phone gets SODs despite having the same setup as many people who are using the same android build as others who do not have SODs and have used android back-to-back for days without falling back to Winmo..
I'm no expert or anything but I use the 16 gig SD card that came with my HD2 and I've formatted it, I've tried every trick I know with the sd card ad I still get SODs, I'm going to keep looking for a fix here. I'll post back if I find one. Let me know if any of you do.
thankx,
Kn0t
the android boot loader should already check all the mounts before mounting them.
i would say try a different winmo rom..
im using the miri cht one with 2.12 radio.
I think every time we boot android the card is automatically checked for errors! I have seen it in the test that scrolls while android is booting!

The problem is actually in the format of the SDCard (fat32) and the way files are organize when we transfer/save/backup files onto it. A scandisk plus a defragment will make a difference. I always do it when I transfer music files, take pics, make backups o just installed a new build. even the fsck finds non-contiguous files every time you boot android (pay close attention be4 the sound is loaded)
and you are right, the sdcard is checked for errors but not fixed. what the bootloader get "automatically fixed" is not the sdcard, but some files which might not be configured/located where they should. I recommend a scandisk and a defragment everytime you load a new build/change many files. u will notice the difference.
So which chdsk/defrag program do you recommend ?

Every Windows pc comes with its scandisk and defrag utility.
according to some peeps at computer forums
you should NOT defrag a thumb drive or sd card, because its a different tpe of memory than hard drive and may cause some sideffects.
cna someone confirm that?
I formatted my SD card. Upgraded my radio. I took everything off of MT SD card that was windows mobile. I just left music movies and android and I've been running android 19 + hours with zero problems nor sods.

it doesn't make any sense, this two thing isn't related at all. hard drive type and defrag. data just fragments, no matter hdd type, format. so you need to defrag it.

Thank you for this tip. I had installed Modern Combat: Sandstorm and put a good amount of music on my phone, and after that I was getting SOD's fairly frequently.. I'm attempting this trick now to see if it has any positive effect.
I don't know if this will help anyone but it works great for me. In addition to repairing errors when I formatted my 16 gig class 2 that came with the phone I set cluster size to 64 and its always ran fast since with no sod. I don't see that much of a storage loss. Barely using 5 out of 16 gigs on the card with almost 3 gigs of music loaded.

I also don't know if this will help anyone but I used to get the SOD to happen ALL THE TIME. Sometimes I would get lucky for a couple hours but then they would happen sometimes every TWO minutes. I have 3 different SD cards. One stock 16gb, one class 4 8gb. and a spare 16gb. I tried everything I found here from switching to a faster card. reformatting. Using a higher cluster size. Nothing worked. Then I tried switching radio's from 2.08 to 2.12. PROBLEM 100% fixed. I havent had a SOD in over two weeks. Ive read that the radio is NOT a fix for this problem but for some reason it fixed it for me.
HELP ! I have read dozens of posts on here about Wifi...
I have got the same problem.... My Ace I just flashed 2.3.3 Villain with Odin and when I try and connect to my Netgear router (HTC Wildfire S and San Fran) are fine...
All I get id obtaining IP address etc, then phone disconnects....
Screen times out after 1 min then SOD ! (Switches off)
Hold power for 10 secs phone is back on, still no wifi...
HELP !

MY SOLUTION FOR SOD...
Hey all... I am new to this forum. I own a Galaxy Note GT N7000. I am using stock JB rom. I have been having SOD's since 3 months. Even wen i was on ICS. I have tried many custom roms, changed kernels, got my phone bricked n got a motherboard replacement under warranty. Guess what... SOD persisted. I was goin mad. I tried usin phone without external SD, overclocked my device to 500 Mhz.
And hell... SOD persisted. Have been through almost all forums regarding SODs.
What helped was... changing WIFI settings.
Go to... Settings... WiFi... Go to options menu.... click ADVANCED...
CHANGE... "KEEP WI-FI ON DURING SLEEP" option to "NEVER"
Bingo....
No SOD... since last 4 days.
Hope it helps. I know some ppl are havin SOD even without using WIFI.
But for those who r using WiFi, its worth giving a try.

nice revivial of a 2 year old thread
and this is the hd2 android q and a section not the galaxy note section
and it looks like your just a spammer
reported
So Ive spent all day going through a lot of threads and posts and stuff, about the HD2 rebooting a lot and the only possible reason i could find was the memory card wasnt supported. its the stock 16gb class 2 that comes with the usa hd2, but im pretty sure it works because before i activated the live services everything was perfect, after i activate them, it reboots every couple minutes, anyone find a fix for this or any tips? ive tried formating the memory card, reflashing the phone, updating the radio, everything.

I had the same problem the first time I ported WP7 to my phone using the same stock 16gb class 2 card. I suggest you restart the process.
-Reformat your sd card (I did a quick format)
-Reinstall WP7
-Follow the exact steps to enable market. When moving the file using Touch explorer, remember to copy the file and not cut it..on my first attempt I made a few mistakes and I ended up cutting the file into the windows folders. Suddenly my phone started to restart itself every other minute.
-All apps that I've tested on the market works including netflix, youtube, weathebug.
-Zune transfers and playlists works like a charm!
After following these steps, WP7 has been running solid for almost two days!
I hope this helps.

interesting...i will try it again..
all we know stable is the most important factor, even than the market
I have this same problem. I rather doubt that copying-vs.-cutting or cluster size has anything to do with it, particularly as WP7 will reformat your SD card itself on first boot. Your problem probably became more pronounced after using Live because the SD card was being used to store the additional data/settings.
My opinion is that we have "bad" (perhaps insufficiently speedy) SD cards (I am also using the stock 16GB TMob USA card); haven't had a chance to test my theory by swapping it out yet, though.
Using teh SDK kit or Toms deployer seems to take too long, even on small apps.
It does work but just seems to take ages, is anybody else having this issue or is it just me?
No problem for me.
Try another usb port??????????

Already both ports on lappy, same issue. Other devices work full speed no issues.
I'm having that issue now I have an SD card installed. Been installing a small app from the marketplace for 10 minutes now...
Phone has also become laggy so going to try another SD card.
Same problem here. Must be related to an incompatible SD card
I think it depending app size. It take about 1 or 2 minutes before finish to install everything.
Guys, im referring to deploying apps/games not installing via market but could be same end issue I suppose.
MY card seems fine in every other respect though so dont think its down to card.
It's NOT card related or at least not with the card's hardware. When I first flashed WP7 last week I had the same problem. Then I was forced to flash back to WM6.5 for a few hrs. I used the opportunity to format my SD card. After I flashed WP7 again Market installs were way faster than before. Same goes for XAP deployment, although huge staff like Guitar Hero 5 still takes 15 min or so
Hello Ya'all,
First and foremost, I would like to thank the forum and its members for the great supply of information and technology.
Device: HD2 is currently running YukiXDA's Windows Phone 7 ROM
Storage Device: Sandisk 8GB Class 4 MicroSDHC
Issue: I flashed my phone with Windows 7 after formatting the SD card with SD-Card formater for optimal results. The installation went perfect, the SD card was recognized, etc. and everything was working perfectly. I added pictures and music to it, no problems; however, when I put an additional album onto the HD2, the phone started freezing and rebooting quite frequently, with the occasional Storage card error; thus, I assumed (and read) that adding a little more music would patch up the problem. I tried it and to my surprise, the rebooting decreased, but the problem still persists. I know some of ya'all are probably wondering: "Go buy a new SD card," However, this is one of the cards that is known for being compatible quite frequently; thus, I can't be too sure whether I'm just wasting money or not. Any help would be appreciated.
This might sound hilarious; however, after updating to blackseven mango, my phone has not rebooted for the past 6 hours (It is infamous for rebooting every hour or so). I am going to test this out one more night and see what the problem is. I'm sure it is not related to the roms; however, it would restart with every NoDo Rom, but for some reason, it hasn't with this one.
sd card
Its most likely your SD card I personally have never had any problems with restarting and I have the Samsung SD card that came with my us hd2

the adding of music is the key, ive found that my card has portions that are fine, in fact its super quick and stable, but if i go and install something it will start resetting, if its the same issue as mine then keep dumping 50MB of junk on it until it becomes stable, i honestly do not know why this works unless WP7 is so sensitive to IOPS that even the slightest hicup will make it reset

Hi
I have had problems with alot of reboots, up till 5 per hour and some times when booting it just get stuck on a white og green screen so that i have to pull the battery. But that was untill i found this yesterday, i filled my phone up(from over 10 gb free to only 2gb free) and now it is running sooooo smooth not a reboot yet
So people with random reboots might noth have to by a new sd card. ???
Wish i found this before i ordered a 16 GB class 10 hehehe
Just a quick report back on this, after filling my sd card up with music i only had ONE reboot last night in stead of rebooting many times per day else it has been running all smoth.
So i must say this is a great result by just adding music to the phone
HTC HD2 with cm7 hyperdroid
Hi my phone randomly reboots a lot ive rooted it and flashed cm7 hyper droid- v10.4 "estatic eagle" android version 2.3.3 build #GRI40 a long time ago but now recently it just started randomly rebooting. i believe it started when i tried to update the rom from rom manager to a newer cm7 hyperdroid but for some odd reason my phone also doesnt reboot into recovery mode to put a new rom on it. please help. its getting irratating. thank you
i got a Venue Pro from a us ebay seller, originally ATT locked and running nodo 7392. guess i got very unlucky cause my device was freezing after a couple of moves, not just under intense stressing, almost immediate freezing with any usb cable connection, random freezes even in standby.
just once i was able to upgrade the sys to Mango before usb crash, and i still got the same problems.
So i tried replacing the original microsd Sandisk 16Gb class 4 with a LEXAR 32 Gb class 10, and no improvement at all!
then i noticed that the device it s kinda lasting longer before freezing when there s no simcard inserted.But STILL with or without wifi activated hte sys crashes, it s just a matter of time.
ANYone can help at this point?
tks

At this point, you've done a lot. Have you considered a few resets in a row. You have already tried without the SD card, so leave it out. Also, on setup, don't log in. Let in run without windows live for awhile...no apps, no wifi. Just to if it would work out of box. Consider that you're not trying to get it to work the way you like, but rather just getting it to work period. No login, no apps, no wifi. See if that helps
You've already tried most of what is suggested
tks 4 reply! tried everything u suggested but it didnt get any better,
i even followed all steps shown in the "how to unbrick dvp" , succeded to get running that old 7004 Tmobile rom on it, and....same as before!!random crashes, even with every connecivity disabled, even with no sim, no way to get this dvp working i guess...
Looks like a broken hardware, sorry...
