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.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
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...

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
Ok, im a bit fustrated with this.
i have a Spanish Vodafone HD2, unlocked with proper code, has cotulla HSPL, currently running on a dutty 3.14 based rom with radio 2.15.50,
the thing is after some hours on standbym the phone just decides to not come back out of sleep, and the phone has to be reset (red botton) or pull the battery out,
i´ve used several MicroSD cards, both formated with windows 7 or the panasonic SD formatter (could windows 7 be the issue ? )
my main microSD cards were a Apacer 8GB class 4 card and a sony 8GB class 4 Card, i also have a 16GB class 2 Sandisk to experiment on.
anyways, phone stats
Cotulla HSPL 2.08
tried with artemis, dutty and energie roms
used both mdeejay and hastarin kernels same issue in both.
Using radio 2.15.50
formating the microSD´s using windows formater and panasonic SD formatter using a hama multicard reader
adding andlog from last crash.
thank you in advance for any comment or help.
I'm not an expert but...here goes....which android build did you try? I have great result with mdj's revolution and hd2one build...sleep of death seems to be caused by mt sd card, in my case anyway. Try to have only the android build on the card to see if it makes a different. Also, have you try one of the "lite" android friendly rom?

Following has served me in the past to find and troubleshoot the issue you above list to have:
1. Install BSB Tweaks in WinMo and have Power Saving turned ON but everything else turned OFF... biggest option you want OFF is AUTO-LOCK feature under Windows Mobile. Many people will tell you how this does not matter since WinMo is not loading blah blah - just go ahead and disable this - it will not hurt anything.
2. Under WinMo disable Brightness Automatic option while you have phone sensor under direct strong light bulb and choose manually to have 10-15% - more is not needed in WinMo since you will be using Android.
3. When you get into Android, do the same: disable Auto-brightness under strong light bulb into manual percentage which suits you the best.
4. Another tip is to have G-Sensor tested; this mainly depends on kernels whether they include G-Sensor fix but go ahead and disable it completely. Fors testing purposes I recommend that you test the device under certain option for a few days instead of few minutes.
What conf I have? Energy GTX 2.5 WinMo 3.14 based; Radio 2.15.50.xx; Android HyperDroid 1.7 with mychprima's kernel OCd and UVd; No setCPU is installed nor I am using any of it's profiles naturally. Auto-Killer is set to system default since it came with the Android Buiuld I am using. Never experienced the no-wake-up screen under this setup even with G-Sensor ON.
Hope some of these tips help you at least to figure whether you have good configuration ...
Question: Spanish Vodafone HD2 you said? That means you have HTC HD2 and not T-Mobile US HD2 (more memory, etc) ... If I were you I would check whether that device needs 2.15.51.xx version and not the "50" version...
I´ll try the light sensor thing. but i think theres no 2.15.51 radio,
is that the differance between .50 and .51 radios ? US vs EUR radios ?
Followed instructions.
got SoD after 2 and a half days insted of 12 hours.
New death.
New log,
If anyone can examine it, i would me most thankful.
I also get lot of sod. I have tried more than 10 builds, different kernels, 3 microSD and couple of wm Rom & radio combos. still after various time sod will come. Disabling auto brightness and G-sensor does not help. Are there anyone who can really help for this problem? Is it sdcard problem or kernel? Android is running great and smooth only one problem is SOD.
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

Please post questions in correct section.
Sorry about that - Realised my error a little to late Thanks for moving it!

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!

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.

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
I´m sorry if this problem has been solved elsewhere, but i´m not able to find any description of the problem like mine.
The problem is, that my HD2 won´t wake up from "sleep" sometimes, most after about half an hour of sleep. The screen and the keys gets lit up, but the screen stays blank. This has happened to me with diefferent ROMs (i tried Dorimanx, Hyperdroid, Nexus ICS and EVO ICS), but it worked with both Dorimanx and Hyperdroid for some time. First i had the same issue with these roms, but i managed to get them to work. But the problem is: I dont know how.
Now, after running on Hyperdroid for some time (witout any problems) i flashed the NEXUS HD2 ICS ROM from Tytung, and i´m having the same problem again. I did a clean install, tried with task29 and factory reset in the recovery, but nothing worked. Any suggestions?
Sorry for bad English btw :angel:
I thought the bsod was fixed ages ago? .. weird. And since it's an issue JUST with you on EVERY rom, it might be hardware related, I cannot say for sure. Maybe a logcat will help us get something?

+1, this issue was supposed to have been fixed a while ago. I'm also guessing it's some sort of hardware fault.
It seems to be a problem with the sd-card.. or more likely the format or the ext partition. I took it out, and the problem disappeared. But the card cant be broken, since it worked on the previous rom.. any ideas?
[Edit] Now i´ve Formattet and created a 1GB ext4 partition with the ext4 recovery, and reflashed the ROM and the 40a2sdx-a2recovery.zip script. I´ll try just not to put anything on the sd-card, and see if the problem still appears..
Now it happened again, without anything on the sd-card other than the ext4 partiton (and the .zip´s for the rom and the a2sdx script, but that should not change anything?). Am i doing anything wrong with the formatting or the partition, or is the sd-card just broken? I dont know what to do.. Do i have to buy a new micro-sd card? I have a 32gb sandisk class 4 card btw
No ideas? I´m getting a bit frustrated after hours and hours of searching the web and flashing different roms, recoverys and stuff. How can it be a problem with the sd-card, when i have used this one for the last rom, too, which worked just perfect?
Try setting the CPU-s minimum frequency to 384 or higher. If problem still appears, try setting the governor to performance and the max. frequency to for eg. 1036. The second solution will eat your battery but try it. I don't think the answer I gave you is right and I think your problem is due something damaged in your phone inside because my minimum freq. is 96.
EDIT:
Fix for Black Screen of Death
Black Screen of death occurs in many different phones like Htc Hd2, droid, Samsung..(With Android Rom Mainly). It is not caused by hardware, software or battery issues but because of Android Rom and clash of few settings.The screen will be black and the lights will be lit up and screen won't wake up. The only temporary fix is pull the battery. Annoying as hell. But, screen of death continues. My Solution ( it works on HTC Hd2) go to settings> personal> display settings. Deselect automatic brightness(No auto brightness).Screen time out 1 Minutes (No 30 Sec). Animation medium. Apply Settings. Okay.Go to settings again. Settings>system> Wlan (wireless network) > advance settings > wlan sleep policy > select never. Apply settings. Okay. Restart Phone twice to apply settings and test your phone. you screen should not go blank. Optional install android assistant & battery monitor widget that might prevent screen of death in certain cases. Good Luck!

I tried changing the CPU speed without any luck, and in the previous rom i had min set to 96 aswell... I also deselected autobrightness and Wlan sleep policy... Seems not to be the problem. And as i said, everything is working when sd-card is pulled out..

I don't think the answer I gave you is right and I think your problem is due something damaged in your phone inside because my minimum freq. is 96.
EDIT:
Fix for Black Screen of Death
Black Screen of death occurs in many different phones like Htc Hd2, droid, Samsung..(With Android Rom Mainly). It is not caused by hardware, software or battery issues but because of Android Rom and clash of few settings.The screen will be black and the lights will be lit up and screen won't wake up. The only temporary fix is pull the battery. Annoying as hell. But, screen of death continues. My Solution ( it works on HTC Hd2) go to settings> personal> display settings. Deselect automatic brightness(No auto brightness).Screen time out 1 Minutes (No 30 Sec). Animation medium. Apply Settings. Okay.Go to settings again. Settings>system> Wlan (wireless network) > advance settings > wlan sleep policy > select never. Apply settings. Okay. Restart Phone twice to apply settings and test your phone. you screen should not go blank. Optional install android assistant & battery monitor widget that might prevent screen of death in certain cases. Good Luck!

I've found this on androidforums. There was probably a solution here but I was lazy.

It's a very old problem. It was fixed long ago, so it shouldn't be happening to anyone on a NAND ROM right now.

Are you really unable to change the sd-card? Why not get an upgrade? maybe a better class? or a higher storage? (I know you have a 32 GB class 4 sd card, it's really hard to upgrade that, I understand)
If you don't want to, you have to narrow down the problem.
Try a different recovery ( I doubt this has anything to do with it, but you gotta try)
Try a different fs. (other than ext4, give ext3 a shot)
Are they both set to primary and not logical? (I thought it shouldn't work if either is set to logical? perhaps I'm wrong)
What is the fs of your main partition? (Are you sure it's FAT32?)
Try to check for bad sectors.
^I know it's too much, and you can try from the most likely to the least likely. (Sorry, I do not know the order)
Or, you can sit tight and wait for other answers.

Yeah, its much, but i must say i have tried nearly everthing. I tried different recoverys, both ext4 and ext3, both of the fs are set to primary and the main fs is FAT32. I´ll try to check for bad sectors, and if i get the black screen next time i´ll try with another sd-card. Until then, if any of you have any other ideas or suggestions.. But thanks for the try
It happened again-.- No other solutions? am i really the only one suffering from this issue? BTW, anyone know what caused this problem, when you say it was "fixed long time ago"? I realized i have the 3.0.0 recovery, could this be part of the problem? Looks like I´ll have to try another card, but i dont know why that should be the problem, since this one worked for my previous rom...
You can try to upgrade your recovery, since nothing else is working for you. It is worth a shot.
I'm experiencing the same issue since I changed my SD card. I'm running NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2. It was very slow with a class 2 card, but I had no wakeup freezes. After I upgraded to a class 10 card it's much faster, but I also started experiencing those wakeup freezes.
First I changed the cpu frequency range to 128-998, I kept smartassv2 as the governor and I also disabled wifi (someone else suggested keeping it always on as a possible workaround). I haven't had any freezes for almost 24h. I suspect it freezes while trying to turn wifi back on during wake up, but it definitely has something to do with the card, too, because when using the other (slower) card the rom was stable.
I haven't had any issues of this kind with any other rom.

Thank you both I´ll update my recovery, change sd-card and make another clean install. Its a bit weird, but we´ll see
Ok, seems like the sd-card really was the problem. I changed to an 8GB card, and i have not had the issue since. Everything is a bit slow, and some apps need time to load, but that could be because it is a slower card.. i hope. I think i´ll buy an 32gb class 10 card, and hope that it works and is faster Thank you all for the ideas and help. I hope my problem is solved :victory:
yup.. same problem a while ago..

Install Easy Task Killer and manage it properly
Try using a High Speed Micro-SD Card.
When it comes to HD2. you can face "n" number of issues
Don't use task killer!

I read many senior members giving the same advice. Task Killers are a pain if you use them randomly. I configured Easy Task Killer to kill only specific and useless apps/process.. all required apps and processes are ignored by it.
By using SystemCleanUp i have disabled all useless autoruns.. my roms are much faster and stable now.
HD2 has too less RAM for not using Task Killers.
Using Task Killers and SystemCleanUp even on my Asus Transformer TF101..
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

WP8 or Windows 8? Windows 8 is OS for PC only... maybe Windows 8 RT for tablets but maybe this not be functional complete, same thing is with WP8... HD2 is too old device and all drivers and others must make from scratch...
