Hi!
Long time ago since I was last here but now I'm back and I have a new Windows Phone (last version I used was 6.1).
Love Mango first of all... Realle nice piece of software Using Yuki build 7720 with newest update from Microsoft BUT I still have 2 major problems:
1. My bluetooth wont turn on! It searches for devices for 5 seconds and then turns off again... None of my bluetooth headsets or my bluetooth keyboard will get recognised
2. The battery dies after 4 hours of ligt use - IE no mail sync, low light on screen, no GPS, no Wifi, no BT and still it sucks!
I'm thinking some sort of problem with the radio (using newest version 2.15) but I am not sure! Any ideas? :S
Thanks in advance!

I'm now on 2.51T and battery is good in some ways. You should try trick to solve your battery problem, e.g: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1303294
This is the best wifi and bluetooth fix for now http://xboxmod.sylvester20007.com/cabs/tweak/LEO/ (look into WIFI_PLUS)
Thanks for the reply! What are you refering to by saying 2.51T? Is that your radio version?
In regards to the BT issue... What file are you linking to? What does it do?
Lastly I have another question: Is it not possible to share your internetconnection on windows phone? I could easily do that on my old Nokia but this one lacks the funktion
/Anders
Please post questions in correct section.
Sorry about that - Realised my error a little to late Thanks for moving it!
/Anders
Ok took the chance and installed the BT update you linked me to - Works like a charm!! Thank you sooo much!
The other problems I still have - Those are NOT yet fixed... But yay one down at least!
Btw is there a fix that makes the buttons underneath the screen light up while the screen is on? Right now they only light up when I push them!

Sorry 5.51T(exactly 5.51T.09.29a_22.32.50.10U - for lastest Radio http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287070) is my Radio ROM, with light use(Gmail and hotmail 1 hour interval check, facebook, games and web surfing) my HD2 can last 15 hours. I posted a link about trick to solve battery drain at #2 post, you can check it out.
Are you talikng about 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen? I don't know how to make its light on when you don't press, i got used to no light on it
In some ways, I think Yuki's Mango ROM is not good at battery, you should try HD2O's one and don't forget to upgrade your Radio, you'll get some changes.
Battery life issues are almost always related to SD card. You may have an SD card that seems to be working fine, but it's actually causing massive battery drain. There are a few things you need to do to make sure your battery drain is optimal.
1 - Install HTC Battery Tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19048691&postcount=19
2 - Do the "camera trick" - start WP7 > turn on camera > press icon to switch to video > wait for auto focus to happen > exit
3 - With wifi and bluetooth turned off, scroll to and select Battery Tool app > lock your screen or allow it to auto lock > a few minutes later, unlock screen and wait for battery tool to refresh. These should be your idle time discharge numbers. Battery Current should be between -4 and -10. If not, make sure you did camera trick and that you've exited the camera... that you don't have anything multitasking. Make sure BT is disabled. It causes -70 drain for me, so I only enable it when I need it.
If you cannot achieve an idle time battery current of less than -10, then it's most likely your SD card. I had a "perfectly" functioning Kingston 8GB c2, but could only get about 6 hours battery life with minimal usage. The current was -200 or greater at its best. I changed to PNY 16GB c4 and my battery current normalized immediately. This was confirmed over several reflashes and hard resets using both cards.
Good luck!
Hi!
I am using a Sandisk Class 4 16 gig card... Should be the best according to the web but I have no idea!
How do I install the battery app? It is not a cab file and when I try to scan the barcode my phone tells me the file is not compatible with WP7 :S

It's a xap. You have to download the WP7 SDK toolkit and use the Application Installer program while Zune is running and while your device does not have the lock screen active.
Problem may still be your SD card. Different batches, different issues. Until you try another card, you'll never know.
Is there a sdk for XP users also? The one on MS's homepage was only for Win 7
/Anders
Just to be sure.

Just asking to be sure
You say, Exit, as in using the back button to close the camera right?
What if you want to use the camera? - Should you reapply this trick or?
Regards Lars Mortensen
You only need yo do the camera trick once, each time you power on the device. It has no impact on future use of the camera and does not need to be running the background. It's a glitch pretty much, that helps us get around poor battery life.

YES IT IS. but your Windows Xp must be SP3.
Solution 1:
Requirement: WP7 SDK, here is the link http://download.microsoft.com/download/6/0/9/6092A6EA-8638-4F4B-BD49-4A8FF77B2E99/WPDT_RTM_en1.iso
Let's do it:
1, Extract WPDT_RTM_en1.iso(using winrar) then search for "baseline.dat"
2, Open "baseline.dat" with Notepad. Now, you can press Ctrl+F(search function) to search for "[gencomp7788]" string.
3, Look below string we've searched, you can see "'InstallOnLHS=1" and "InstallOnWinXP=1". Change 1 to 0
4, Save and close "baseline.dat"
5, Run setup.exe
During the installation, you will see error like "Winphone Emulator ....". Ignore it
Solution 2:
Try this mini SDK http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265846
NOTE: I don't have any Windows XP computer here so that's best I can do for you.
Good luck!
Perfect! Will have a look later on (and look at radio 2.12 also) and report back! This phone will soon be usable
One more thing... Is it a problem that there are no drivers for the compass? I would like to run Navigon software on the phone but as the compass does not work I am wondering if that is a problem?
/Anders
Btw if I install the reg editor I have seen posted somewhere else will I then be able to fix the problem that the sound is very loud regardless of how high I have turned up the volume? For example when I end a call the phone makes 3 loud "beep" sounds but the sound is turned all the way down! If I play a game it does not matter wether I have the sound turned to 1 or 5 - it's the same!
/Anders
The only solution that worked for me amongst all the options (based on my experience)
1. Tried the camera trick - NOT WORKED
2. Followed the steps below - NOT WORKED
* Boot the phone to MAGLDR
* Select "Reset" option from the menu
* Phone reboots normally
3. Hard reset the phone - NOT WORKED
4. Charge the phone in magldr USB storage option - NOT WORKED
5. Finally, flashed the 2.12 radio, did the camera trick (not sure if its relevant). The battery life has improved dramatically. It lasts more than 24 hours and still running (26% left) - WORKED.
Follow the thread below to download the 2.12 radio

You should not need chevron to unlock, as the ROM is developer(=chevron) unlocked by default. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19058358&postcount=3974

It has been a long time ago that I bought a new toy with so many problems as this little b**&^^rd.
Now, already three times, I did not have any sound at all.
I do not remeber what complains there were (No driver installed? No sound card?) And I do not feel the energy to find out.
After a restart (which is always quickly done in maximum 4 minutes and I am becoming quite good in finding other things to do when waiting for this and that) the sound is back.
Till now my disappointment only consists of:
1. This sound problem
2. Resume problems in low power settings
3 SD card not being recognized, randomly
4. Shift control centre sometimes crashing, or not working at all.
5. Origami crashing, or not working, or only partionally.
6. Bad performance of my VLC player
7. And whatever anybody can find on this forum.
Anyway.. I am trying to transfer info from my MacBook into my new Macbook Air and that also hangs all the time, resetting the connection etc etc.

Sounds familiar (forgive the pun). Not had your problems but I'm reaching the end of a bottle of wine that I opened 45 minutes ago whileunistalling SP1 which caused me endless troubles. Did you install SP1?
trend micro the culprit
If you did the vista sp1 upgrade you must uninstall trend micro antivirus from your system. It is not compatible with sp1 and breaks all of the items you mentioned.
I had the same problem - uninstalled and rebooted, all fixed.

1. Sound is not working if you have problems with WM. Is WM working OK?
2. Same here
3. Same here
4. When is this? After you use a button?
5. Which powerplan do you use?
6. You must use the Performance power plan to get it working OK
display quirk?
Display quirk?
I recognized that the brightness of the start screen of Snapvue is irregular. Shouldn't it be pitch black? But across the screen I have got sort of a big grayish egg. Or: a big oval part is much lighter than the rest of the start screen in Snapvue. If I go into a menu which is basically white then the irregularity disappears.
Is this a common thing? Or is it just a quirk of my Shift?
Can I change the start screen having liberated the Shift (first steps), not changing to Realvga, I don't know if I have the courage to do that.
Thanks!

1: I am not using WM. But as far as I can see Snapvue working OK. No SIM card however. The sound not working occurs absolutely randomly, but I suspect a little bit the interaction between Origami and WMP. Could be the powerplan, but still....
2. I know, that's solved ( more or less but no more use of low power possible = shorter battery life).
3. I do not know what you mean, and what the realtion is between Vista and WM, I thought the SD card is not recognized by WM at all. I am talking about the SD card randomly dissappering when in Vista. Sometimes after suspend. etc. See that thread.
4. I cannot force this problem with Shift control centre. So no idea when.
5. Different powerplans. I combine them. I will do new research wit Origami only using the fastes power plan. ( If I have time)
6. I tried everything with VLC. It is not a huge problem and also randomly. But in full screen it plays irregularely. I know VLC is not the fastest of all, but still.
I suspect it is Vista doing all kind of things ( Indexing I shut of from the first day) randomly, preventing VLC to play correctly.
When I let it rest for a long time VLC performs better.
VLC working flawlessly or not, is not related to any powerplan or battery use. Tested all combinations. So, when it is working nice, I pull the power supply; put it on low power, and it keeps working nice.
It is all quite disappointing, and I am not an easy complainer.

no sound
hey The sound bug is easily fixed, just open the device manager on the vista side of course, go to sound and on the plugin window it will say that it works but it didnt in my case, all I did was disable it wait a couple of minutes and then enable it again... hope it works for you

Notes:
A. some issues are windows phone 7 related that we should wait for microsoft to fix them see the list here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836373
B. I will request the next rom update to be an hd7 reg edited as default , so that we will only need to use the activation code without cracking the phones security with (chevron wp7.exe ) as with the next microsoft ypdate we will not be able to use it any more.
C. All problems are being repeated now , i think the list above includes it all ,one more day and i will be reporting all these issues on the chinees forum , or to cotulla ,
A very big problem don't let your phone empty its charge as it can't be charged while it is off and it will die unless you find a way to charge it externally​
I hope that cotulla this repaired
Speciall the camera
wifi problem, phone don't open the site but is connect to the router
WiFi problem - I can't see all WPA secured WiFi networks, I can find (and connect) my WiFi at home, but at work, HD2 doesn't see WiFi there...
Yesterday I answered the phone and the opposite side can't hear me (radio 2.15.., I don't know, just the last version)
Sometimes the phone is little bit laggy, I think, that the problem is in the SD card, when I used the phone w/o card (before hard-reset ofc), everything was faster
1. Speaker is very loud
2. Hope Market will be soon available for all.
I will be updating the list issue periodically and I might register to dft forum to report it all if he is not going to xda anymore

Known issue with Magldr.
Warning!
Installed win phone 7 on my HD2, and it formated my 16 gb memory card in a secured partition, all data was erased, and i could not format it using any windows tools, so the only solution for me was to "Hard" Format it using a free software called SDFormatter, it formated and brought back to life my microSD Card.
So people, back up your data before flashing.
So far one issue: it takes quite a lot of time to turn off the phone
Regarding the camera, using flash gives green tint. No other problems from the reported ones.

I had the same problem. I've noticed that the wlan channel from my wlan router was 13. I switched the channel to 11 and then WP7 find my wlan...
So, WP7 doesn't support wlan channels higher then 11...
wifi mac address will change if you reboot the phone.
The type isn't clear when you scroll down or up in the system menu, it takes a little bit time when the type is clear again.
The next problem for me is that I don't know how to set up wireless synchronization, I think I've done everything according to Microsoft pages, but it doesn't work for me.
And then I have the same problems like you, loud speakers, camera...
Well, after reading most of the posts here I guess I was lucky, WiFi and Mobile data connection worked for me, the phone was fast (faster than Android).
The whole WP7 seems to be 'airy' and not so heavy as Android, I liked the look of emails, large and clear fonts, easy to read and navigate. But on the whole, the system seems to be too closed off, not much customization is available.
I did manage to unlock it and install some 3rd party apps but soon the phone would give me a message that 'Microsoft has revoked' the particular program. Also the phone keeps locking itself over and over. I got tired of unlocking it every time I wanted to install a new app. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it did not. Had to either reset the phone or PC many times in order for things to work.
Does anybody know a solution to this?
I could have asked MS to give me the 'key' so that live services could be used but was not sure I want to keep this OS on my phone. It may be similar to Vista issue, a nice looking OS but buggy. Somehow I have a feeling that a new and (much) improved WP7 is around the corner.
Couple of tips:
If you want to sync your contacts, calendar, etc., the easiest way is to go through Google. If you used an Android ROM before this should not be a problem. Back up all your contacts in Android by using your Google account, once you are in WP7 go to Settings - People - Gmail and sign in. It will automatically sync your contacts to the phone - painlessly. You can also choose not to have your Facebook contacts mixed with the phone's ones. Up to you.
If you want to revert back to WinMO 6.5 or Android:
- take out your SD card first
- turn off your phone and then hold the Vol Down key as you press and hold the Power button (get into Bootloader screen)
- flash the official ROM (3.14 RUU is recommended)
- use your photo camera to format your SD card (if you have a card holder, stick in, and then format)
- if you wish you can format your SD card again once you put it back into your phone and plug it into your PC
It worked for me. I am using my SD card again to run Android (flawlessly)

After unlock the phone, you have to use 2 softs :HTC Connection Setup and Tom WP7 Jailbreak in order to prevent from MS remote lock. Have you used it before?

The second issue is when Leo is restarting , all information disappear - just like in hard reset .
It's not very stable and vast ;(
So you did flash, and you are running WP7 on your HD2.
Now the battery dies quick?
Firstly, download this ROM and flash it: (google your ass to find out how its done, dont ask me )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941905
Its a custom ROM by football. Works amazing. Better than original ROM or the Moonlight (another custom rom) shiite you're planning on running.
After you have this ROM (or even if you dont have this ROM) if you take care of the follwing things, you will get HUGE battery life.
1. Fix the indicator by installing Registry editor, charge your battery to full and follow following steps:

Thanks arkatis!
2. See that you have a new sd card, not the one which came with your hd2 orignially, buy a new one, any branded one should do, and rplace it with the older card and in your phone go to: settings> about phone> hard reset
These two steps will really show a massive imprvement in your battery life.

Are you able to list even one of the performance difference's between this rom and the Moonlight rom?
i think moonlight is good at battery back up .... more than 24 hours used now ...

well, for astarters, ml has a higher call drop rate, the voice quality over the call isnt all that great either, im on x.12 radio, and its not able to use the radio perfectly - this same problem is not there on footballs rom.
Another bug is while recieving calls, sometimes, when you click "answer" it automatically puts you on speaker phone! Its scary when you dont want others to know who just called. (happened twice on ml)
gps lock took nearly 5 minutes on ml, on footballs rom it snaps on in less than 30 seconds.
thats why i had to switch to hd2 1.00
Odd how I haven't had any of those problems. Anyway there is no difference between this rom and footballs rom. The tools to make any of those kind of fixes aren't out yet. The only kind of change you'll find is simple things like different keyboards or installed apps.

I did both, but there is no improvement in battery life. lasts less than 12h as before...
I will try the hard reset part when my new SD card arrives
Hold on there a sec, top be clear buying a new SD card might not work at all!!
If you dont have lots of cash or you dont have another use for the SD card please dont go spead money on something that may not work!
Not all cards, even within teh same brand and model will work!
and the reg fix doesnt improve battery life, it just lets you know what you have left, most issues with apparent high consumption are because a your phone isnt fully charged yet windows reports it so, apply reg fix once charged, restart and charge again you may been to repeat process, and to check use the HYC battery tool, try it pluged in and unplugged and you may notice a difference, if you do, restart and plug back in again to charge the remaining battery
I am using Moonlight atm..and with calls/sms and wifing i get utleast 1 and a half day..I use my tweak everytime i charge the phone and seems alright!
I am so obsessed with WP7 so i maybe get an official WP7 mobile..i am thinking of Omnia 7..Looks good!

I actually got the best battery life with the card that came with my HD2.... I've tried 8 different cards with wp7, too... most of them bought recently. Just buying a new card doesn't mean it will work with WP7. Your best chance of getting a good working card it to get a class 2 sandisk with part# ending in A11M.

I only seen this now! This just proves you haven't a clue what you are talking about!!
I'm using the Moonlight-Rom and I tried the last Radios (2.12, 2.15, 2.14)
And the winner is 2.14 - used the phone a lot (games used Wifi...) and after 12h I've still 25% left.
With the other Radios I had to charge it after 9houres because it ran out of battery without using it that much only some SMS!

Hey,
at least we could talk in german, but the others should be able to understand our conversation
I also tried many Radio Roms and my fav is 2.12, bu to be honest I only tried 2.10 2.12 and 2.15.
Do you really think, that the 2.14 is better than the 2.12?
Ja dann machen wir das in deutsch... ;-)
Yes The first Rom I tried was 2.15 (it was already installed - previous rom)
Then I read that 2.12 is working very good and because my phone needs to be charged after less than half a day (using 2.15) I tried 2.12 - but I still had the same problem.
Thats why I decided to use a other Radio! And it seems to work!
Maybe it depends on the phones too?
I dont't know - Try and Error....
I too don't think the registry battery fix works. First time I ever installed WM7 ROM was football's and never changed it. Tried the battery fix a few times with no luck.
Had Radio 2.15 and downgraded to 2.12 with no luck. I see some have improvement with 2.14.
I took out my SIM card yesterday to try if SD card "helps" in battery drain. Left wifi on and played with internet for a bit. This morning it had like 90%+ battery left in it. So it's not the SD card. IMO Radio is the major culprit for the battery drain.
I'll try 2.14 tonight.

That is what I am feeling too! In an other forum I read, that it could be helpful to release the battery for 60s before charging it. But I don't want to do this every time I charge my phone

Right, tried that too but there are no changes and if I check the battery with the HTC battery tool after charging it is 100% charged....

which method?
I'd like to know as well. I'm getting around 1 to 2 hours on heavy usage. Tried all tips & tricks I could find on xda, nothing has worked yet.
Sent from my King LEO using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
i've reflashed the radio, and disconnected fron the charge at 8:00 AM. the phone said that the remaining time was 2 hours. now it's 6:30 PM and the battery is at 30%, always with 2 hours remaining.
i have always 3G/H and push.
EDIT 8:44 : the battery now is down, after 12 hours ca
The only solution that worked for me amongst all the options (based on my experience)
1. Tried the camera trick - NOT WORKED
2. Followed the steps below - NOT WORKED
* Boot the phone to MAGLDR
* Select "Reset" option from the menu
* Phone reboots normally
3. Hard reset the phone - NOT WORKED
4. Charge the phone in magldr USB storage option - NOT WORKED
5. Finally, flashed the 2.12 radio, did the camera trick (not sure if its relevant). The battery life has improved dramatically. It lasts more than 24 hours and still running (26% left) - WORKED.

I had the same problem. To my knowledge, it is partially caused by gps. That's was my case. Switch off the location services. That worked for me. I got an improvement on battery life (15 hrs. with data on, wifi off and bt off) but not totally satisfactory as with previous WP7 versions or even with Android.
i am also having same prob guys... nothing is working other dan going back to 6.5

Greetings, and apologies if there is already a similair post, or fragments of it, so I might aswell help some1 by doing this.
Ive spent quite some time now, browsing these forums, but I failed to find a solution.
Im runing a HD2 WP7,8 , radio 2,15 pdaimatejam rom , and its gr8 ! Cept a few lil problems , I hope I will get help with...
1# BATTERY LIFE : Ive seen posts about charging it in magdlr , complete discharge first, SD card connections 2 battery drain, camera trick
this n that, but its been no help. ( 3G OFF, WIFI OFF, BLUETOOTH OFF , NO background APPS )
With the settings above, with poor use ( 1-2 calls of few mins duration, 2-3 messages, half hour wifi max ) my battery life
is less than 16 hours ( + I always have battery saving mode up , and I restart the phone after charging to sync battery stat
* I DO HEAR THE CAMERA #CLICK# ON PHONE TURN ON / OFF *
* I would be MORE than gratefull for a solution to this, I move a lot during the day, and Id like to use my phone as a mp3 player, as I did with
WP 6,5 , altho that battery was a dissapointment towards a Samsung I had b4 the HD2 ( 7days battery, compared to HD2 WP6,5 battery of
1 and a half day max ) but still better than this , so once again, PLEASE "
2# SD CARD MULTIMEDIA USE : Having no apps installed , I could only put up like 20 or so MP3s over zune , I tried 2 mess with the reserved space but it had no change, while the SD card is basicly empty , is there any way to sync music from the SD card with zune perhaps?
or to make the phone understand the SD card as integrated memory?
3# FAILED INSTALLATIONS : On a few ocassions, the app setup got stuck at a certain % , and would not move , after exiting the process
the app appears as installed ( when I try to re install it ) but cant be read or uninstalled or to be found anywhere
I hope something can be aranged here, I thank You in advance.
Cheers
all is different on different devices.... most problems causes different sdcards (slow work, freezes, reboots or problems with installations)... also one sd card can work complete different on different ROM releases.. no general rules about that... someone have problems, someone not... all is lottery.... same is with battery drain...

Double check you have automatic "everything" turned off or on manual. Double check cellular signal and cellular data...is it looking for a 3G/4G tower. If you live where you have only EDGE, make it stay on EDGE. Sixteen hours sounds about right. I keep chargers in my car and home and it stays on it when I'm not using it...habit! I'm not aware there is a smart phone on the face of the earth which under normal use can go without a charge up to a week; dumb phones, yes; smart phones, no.

About Battry Life: accually almost all of WP roms are the same and in my opinion they have compelitly accepable battery life. (around 2 days with 1-2 calls, 10-15 SMS, and 2-3 hours web brosing and working with apps). It's not only me but my causin and my friend's phone battery life are like mine.
BUT you should do below steps exactly as I explain:
1- Flash 2.12.50 HW radio rom
2- Replace roms' original SW radio (PART00.BIN inside data.zip) with 5.51T SW radio (don't forget to change your radio name with Part00.bin)
3- Flash the rom ase xplained by it's cooker.
4- charge your phone to be fully charged. (the LED become green)
5- unplug the charger and restart the phone.
6- plug the charger to phone again till Led become Green.
7- unplug the charger and do the camera trick. (acually I do the trick twice to be assure it's done correctly)
8- It's finished. use your phone as you wish. But don't forget to do the camera trick every times restarting the phone.
Have a nice time
Peace

App Market recognizes me as if I was in China
Hello,
I found another problem on this ROM - when I activate it (I got an activation key from Microsoft) and try to install the first app from the market, it recognizes me as if i'm in China. I am actually in Germany and it doesn't matter what I do it alway recognizes me automatically as in China. Everything else is set on Germany, language is german and so on. I have a german SIM in it and am geographically in Germany. Its really frustrating, because everytime it happens, it ruins the account, and i have to create a new one (it cannot be changed manually, once there it stays forever). Any Ideas? Or if its not from the ROM, please tell me that too.
Thanks for everything you do here by the way
