[Q] I can't call anyone! - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi,
I've been on Android 2.2 for a while now, and decided to give others a go.
I've changed to multiple different Android Gingerbread and MIUI roms, and on each one i cannot make a call!! This is what happens:
-The first call i make after turning on the phone has sound but it is like robotic sound so you cannot make out what the other person is saying!
-After this first call, any other call i make it will dial and the other person will receive me calling them, but i cannot hear anything, it's just blank, and they cannot hear me either.
What is the problem here? I haven't seen anyone else with this problem but on Android 2.2 i do not have the problem.
Cheers

really? you haven't seen any reference to robot voice at all? even though practically every rom has suffered / suffers from it until recently? and its mentioned all over? (Sorry, couldnt resist 43 thousand results on "hd2 robot voice" in google )
after a fresh flash, make a call, anything will do, switch on the loudspeaker, switch off the loudpeaker, hang up. Problem should be gone until next flash.
Ive also seen reference to turning off audible touch tones but the above method has always worked for me, so i never investigated.

Yes perhaps the robot voice call, but not the afterwards bit where i cannot hear anything at all!!
Ok so i should make the 'robot' first call, wait till answer, switch on loudspeaker, switch off loudspeaker and hang up? I'll try it later on and get back to you.

Hehe I was ignoring the second part in the hope that it's an effect of not clearing the robot bug and will hopefully go away once you try the above.

Firstly as stated "robot voice" is a rediculous topic to create about and you obviously havent even bothered to use search before creating this topic. Remember 99.9% of all questions/issues you can have etc have already been asked and resolved in some way or another and its best to first have a little research. We all need to create help topics now and again but its much better to bring the info to yourself then to create a topic and wait.
Second, which ROM are you currently on, Which Radio do you currently have? Are you running from SD or NAND?,
My guess would be to try a different radio, Preferably 2.15.
Another thing you can try is doing a completley clean install, ie doing Task29 and properly formatting your SDcard, anything less will leave residual files on nand and card. Use Panasonic SDFormatter with full/overwite format and size adjustment on.
To make thinsg easier for you get the HD2 tools 3.9 that is in sticky in nand section.

I am on android 2.2 and it works fine but if i change to say 2.3.3 it does it.
When i have updated my radio and im ready to put the new ROM on, can i just use full data wipe in AD Recovery before installing the rom from sd, will this be good enough?
And could anyone show me where to get the newest Radio file
ps when i run NAND Android 2.2 the calling is fine, but when installing the MIUI or Gingerbread rom i want with Recovery from SD card, it does this problem.

If you are having these sorts of issues with various roms you need to do exactly as I said.
Clean install, task29, FULL format sd card and then start over.
Download the HD2 NAND Tools.
Device:
Put device into bootloader
flash task29
Put back into bootloader
flash magldr
SDCard:
Load SDFormatter
FULL Format/ERASE
Size Adjustment ON.

im really new to all this i don't understand how to do that?
You want me to install 'task29' to the computer then how do i full format SD?? Start over from what? Im very new to it
I have MAGLDR113 and can access the boot screen and do usb flasher etc
a step by step guide would be very appreciated.

[Q] SOD no matter what build

Well before everyone attacks me with "try searching on forums" responses, i have done that already. So here is my problem. no matter what build i use i will occassionally get sod and have to remove the battery to power it back on. the button lights turn on like its going to power on but no matter how long i wait it wont come out of sleep.
I have all display settings turned off in windows mobile before i boot into android, and i have auto like turned off in both windows and android. I have auto rotate turned off, and screen time out set to 30 min, which actually fixed my problem for a while. it always seems to happen that something happens that i have to power off my phone, and as soon as i do that is when it starts acting up and i get sod. it takes a few tries of taking out the battery for the phone to stop getting sod but after a few days it seems to come back.
I have even tried reformatting my sd card and still had the problem. i have the stock 16 gig sd card it came with. i havent flashed anything on the phone because i dont want to risk screwing up, so you guys are my last resort because i have tried everything.
Time to try different sd card.
In both windows and android, Auto light is off and you manually set the display backlight?
Have you tried the hyperdroid 1.7 version??

Im pretty sure this is ur problem. Lots of things go wrong with stock.
its not as hard as it seems. just follow the intructions for ur specific hd2.
(look in the usa hd2 forums) if ur a usa hd2 user. IM SURE ITS A STICKY.
IF U WANT TRY THE OFFICIAL UPDATE FROM T-MOBILE!
i have heard good things about it
Unfortunately you have no choice but to flash the HSPL, a custom rom, and a radio. these are easy. ive flashed my phone countless times. I've also flashed other peoples HD2's countless times. Even when the phone was in the middle of flashing and the power went out at my house it did not brick the phone.
If you want to run android as a daily driver (like I do) my best advice is to flash the following.
HSPL (duh lol) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
Radio version 2.12.50 http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9GU2FF3X
WinMo rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734238
(click on the first 'ChuckyDroidRom' picture under downloads in the first post.
You will use this utility to flash the 3.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575524
when/if you download the 3 items, create a folder on your desktop. Name it something simple. Then inside that folder create 3 folders. name them HSPL, Radio, WinMo Rom. extract the downloaded items to their respective folders.
with the customRUU utility. extract the file to each of the folders.
Then,
Flash the HSPL first, the radio second, then the winmo rom.
when finished with those use the format sd card app in windows mobile to format your sd card (the program is set to format to android specs)
then copy whatever android build you want to the sd card.
Enjoy!
if you have any questions you may feel free to PM me. I will be home all day and would not mind helping you.
wow that is a lot easier than i thought well so far its working really nice, i havent got any sod yet, keeping my fingers crossed lol. thanks everyone for the help!

Yeah I promise you it was your radio/rom version. I had the EXACT same problem and nothing fixed it until I flashed and updated my radio. sometimes you just have to bit the bullet and dive deep!
cheers on your fixed phone, and knock on wood for no more SOD!
If you do experience SOD again. I recommend a faster SD card. I was having issues with any build I was using. Up to date flashed radio and lite WM rom, my only cure was faster SD card. I went from the stock 16GB C2, to an 8GB C6 (17.99 from Amazon), and I have not experienced SOD anymore. I have issues where sometimes the screen will not come back on right away, and I have to wait a few seconds, but it never sleeps on me anymore.

[Q] Problem with Froyo Build(noob here)

I'm willing to accept advice, and criticism so be gentle. So I got put the froyo build on my htc hd2 and everything ran smoothly until I tried to make a call. Their was a robotic voice instead of a regular one(I know this is a common problem).
I've read many guides on installing the froyo build but I'm not very good with this stuff and I rather have some explain to me step by step what to upload to fix it and how to run it on my Leo.
My current specs(while using WinMo):
RAM size:576 MB
Flash Size:1024 MB
Data Bus:32 Bits
ROM Version:2.13.531.1(90963)WWE
Radio Version:2.10.50.26
If needed I can post more specs, but yeah I just need direction in fixing the robotic voice. Please and thank you!
So you're using an sd build then? Try rebooting the build several times. SD builds need to be rebooted several times for them to stabilize.
If it is a NAND build, then each one should have specific instructions on how to fix the robotic voice, eg darkstone's super ram has specific instructions on how to fix robotic voice in his build.
Sometimes changing the radio fixes it, but that has never worked for me, i just kept on restarting until it was gone.
Some reports of WM roms being the case too. Sadly i can't remember which WM rom builds are recommended to fix, either way, chucky droid, or those roms built for android should help.
I'm using darkstones build, where are the instructions on how to fix it? Hmm would restarted it work with DS build? And also the phone in general is glitchy/laggy as the buttons react slowly. My last question is about a dual uploader because everytime i reboot it changes back to Windows.
I would recommend changing ROM and radio. If you do a little searching, mskip put out a great beginners guide.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
I meant if it was a NAND build, meaning if the build was something you installed to phone memory, and not your sd card, he has specific instuctions on how to fix it in his thread.
For sd build, as said, changing radio, winmo rom, or rebooting can fix it.
You mean a dual booter? Just search it up here, it's not hard to find a dual booter and there is plenty. And yes, after you restart, the phone goes back to winmo, it's supposed to be like that.

[q] i'm a noob!!! Tried everything!!! Need help!!!

I'll try to explain to problem I'm haviing as best as possible.
I have an HTC HD2 that worked fine up until I tried to switch the phone from Windows 6.5 Professional to Android Gingerbread. I thought I followed the instructions right. I loaded HSPL4 (whatever that is), Loaded DFT NAND MAGLDR 1.13 and what I thought was Android 2.3.4 (it was actually 2.2).
After it was done, I have no internet service (even though the phone says I am registered with T-mobile, have a good sign and receiving service). My phone works but I can't hear the caller (they hear me fine). I can send/receive texts. Wifi works fine. I also can't Synn up with my PC.
I have a SD card available if I need it. I'm furstrated and mad I can't use my phone. Right now, I would be happy with setting my phone back to stock but I really want Android Gingerbread.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Hey.... I think you have flashed an outdated rom.... So all you have to do is to flash a new and better one... I would prefer MIUI.. it is a fast and clean build with least bugs... To download the rom.. I would say... Go to MIUI.US download the latest rom for hd2 from there and paste it in your SD card.... Then go into magldr screen by pressing the red button when booting up... Select ad. Recovery.. Then in the new screen... Select wipe data/factory reset.... Then select install zip from sd card.... Choose zip from sd card and then after it is complete boot into your new rom by restarting... But warning... If with the current build of magldr... Your battery runs out... You will have to charge the battery external... If you want to prevent this then i would say that you rather install clk it is similar to magldr... But supports off mode charging... To know how to install clk I have posted a thread on installing miui... How to... Check out there you will get the guide for clk installation
Thank you
I'll give it a try and let you know how it went.

I assume (since about ten people per day ask exactly this) that you flashed magldr but magldr didn't start as expected? This is caused by (as I type half a dozen times a day) by not having 2.08.hspl AND a compatible radio.

You haven't given any real details as to what you have done so far.
Details details details.
So, tell us what you did so far, please. Please be detailed, with names, filenames, versions, etc. not just 'i flashed that thing and now nothing works'
hope this helps more
ill start from the start
i first ran this file HSPL3_PKG.exe this run fine without any problems
then i ran this file rom updateutility from this rar folder ive downloaded called DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF
now this is where it all went wrong ,i ticked all the boxes and went thought the set up by following this video
got to 6;08 into the video and followed the steps
then got to 7;04 in the video and this is where the phone stayed on the htc screen for 30 mins ,,,and its done nothing
so i unplugged it
now i read that its possible to get the phone back to booting up with another offical rom from htc but carnt find the rom that ill need ,,plus the windows mobile wont reconise my phone in usb mode
hope this helps you a little more to solving my problem
and sorry i carnt post the link to the video yet as ive not done my 8 posts
ok, so its all fine so far, you just haven't yet done the next step, which is flash a compatible radio. (had you changed the radio after flashing hspl and before flashing magldr, magldr would have started straight away)
(I shall assume that you have a regular hd2, not a t mobile US model, since you haven't said, if it IS a tmous, then its a different problem)
download radio 2.15.50
enter bootloader
plug in usb
count to 5
run customruu to flash that radio
reboot
magldr should now start
thanks for your reply
ill go and find this radio now and keep you posted
thankyou
you rock dude
thank you so much for your time posting ,,
100% working andriod now
anything eles i should know please post
Lovely.
Only thing to know is that you shouldn't need to flash radio or magldr again now, if you want a different sized rom you may have to reflash cwm to change partition size, but if you ever have probs booting or whatever, nine times in ten someone will tell you to task29 and reflash stock and start over,,,, nine times in ten that's massive overkill.
Read read read is the best advice I can offer, see what issues others have and read the answer,, one day that issue might be yours, and you'll have a head start solving it. Never panic and start random flashing, that always ends badly, and means any help request posts are harder to work with.
thank for your reply
just a quick question for you
ive got a 16gb sd card in with about 300 app/games ,,and ive installed about 20 so far but now phone says memory full ,,should they be installing on sdcard instead of the phone memory
or is this normal for the phone memory to run out so fast
Depends on the rom, some leave 200+ free, some far far less. That's why most roms support an ext partition, which the phone treats as internal.
Backup your SD card (it will be wiped) start phone into cwm, then (I think its) advanced - format SD card, or something like that. Create a 1 or 2 gb ext partition, swap 0, and reflash the rom. C
The rest of the SD will be formatted to fat32 just like it is now.
It will detect the ext partition and use it as internal memory automatically. You should not choose the option to "move app to SD card", that will take the app off the ext partition and put it in the fat32 partition,, and some apps wont work from fat32.(angry birds for example)

[Q] Help: Sound problems

Hello All, I will be much grateful if someone can help me solve this sound problem on my HTC HD2 phone.
1. At first I thought it was a bad network problem but I have been outside my flat and have full bar for signal yet, when I ring or someone calls me, I can hear them perfectly well but they cannot hear me.

Many thanks

change your radio to either 2.15 or 2.12
also if you were going to do clean system
task 29, repartition with clk/magldr, and partition sd card.
and install
good luck!
