Hey All,
On 2.2 now and they changed the USB mass storage interface a little.
When I plug the phone in, it connects fine. I can put files on the SD card etc.
If I click the "Turn off" button to turn off USB storage on the phone, it crashes the phone (just freezes up and sits there, the progress indicator won't even spin).
I have tried unmounting the phone in windows too first of course and it won't help. Just unplugging the cable seems to work but then it thinks its still connected.
Anyone have any ideas? This definitely was fine pre-2.2
I get the same. First time I've had to do a pull the battery restart on the N1 :/
Yes pulling the battery is the only way to restore the phone i've tried it a dozen times and it seems to be a serious problem.
I think this started after applying the CM root mods... I am using the kernel .34 version and I am having the same issue. I was running without this mod for a while and didn't have this issue, so either it's related to the root mod or it's some weird issue that doesn't show itself until something else happens.

I also have the .34 kernel from CM for root.
It's definitely the CM root mod.
Yeah its been confirmed on that thread. Known issue I guess.
This thread needs a bump!
this is a well known issue with .34 kernals
just apply CM's root mod stock kernal, and it will work fine
all .34 kernals have this problem and im sure lots of people are looking into it.
Yes there is a workaround if its really bugging you, revert to an earlier 33 or stock kernel (I did).
I just installed WP7 on my HD2 and it restarts every 20 mins or. No error messages, everything went smoothly. Everything is working as well, although I haven't activated my phone yet. Is this normal behavior for an un-activated phone?
EDIT: Actually it restarts more like every 15 mins now. It also deletes all my info I set up (email, contacts, etc).
Maybe it is the SD card. Did you try another one?
I only have one SD card. I was running android on it fine this morning but I just read in the instructions that some SD cards aren't compatible. I guess I'll go buy another one.
Yes you sd card is not supported
check DFT release log its mentioned there
with some memory cards you will get random restrarts
Yeah, I'm experiencing similar behavior right now. I installed WP7 last night and at first it wouldn't read my SD card, after doing a full (boring and long) format to FAT32 it was still not getting recognized by WP7. I hard reset my phone with the card inside and VOILA! It was finally recognized. Then I moved some music from Zune on to it and went to sleep. Woke up this morning and there's was no music in my phone, did a soft reset and music appeared! But now it just keeps restarting randomly. I'm using the original 16gb that came with my HD2 and I can't afford a new SD at the moment!
Dammit! Phone restarted with the 8GB card...
Thread moved to HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A and General
I am having somewhat of the same issue. however mine only reboots when phone is in sleep mode and upon rebooting it resets everything. But if you turn the phone off and back on, all settings returns. I am not sure if this is an sd card problem because the sd card I have is one of the sd cards that is supposed to be on the list of working cards and also the rebooting is not random, only happens while phone is in sleep mode.
It's happening to me also!! I'm using the sd card that came with my cell... any solutions yet?
Yes there is:another card.

Yeah only solution is to get a different card. I traded my mother my 16GB from my HD2 for the 8GB from her MyTouch/Magic and I haven't had the restarting problem ever since. I hope to upgrade to a good 32GB or a 16GB that works in the future, but for now 8GB will have to do.
Radio
I had this same problem when i tried the radio from the thread on how to flash to WP7.
I solved my problem by simply updating my radio to the latest.
There is a TMOUS radio thread in the winmo 6.5 dev section.
Reflash WM7 again and it solved my problem

Good advice. My phone has not been running smoothly all day long after reflash.
Here's what happens to me and why I havent been bothered by it.
Basically the phone has been working top notch since I flashed it. No hiccups etc.
There are certain instances when I turn off my phone at will, and turn it back on the MAGLDR screen starts, then the DFT splash shows up and it reboots once or twice and then boots up fine like nothing.
I have not had any reboots while on the OS at all. Just when Im gonna turn it on, and has only occurred three times since WP7 was flashed. I dont lose settings or anything like that, everything is intact AFAIK. Anyone else?

Are you using the stock sd card?
OK, I have 1 question regarding accepted SD cards.
I'm not having this reboot issue but want to make sure if I understood correctly.
I have a kingston 2gig class4 card.
I have formatted it in windows, put the card in the phone (with wp7 installed) and made a HARD RESET (using vol down x 2);
The phone started superbly, I have wifi access with SD inserted.
about phone shows 1.6GB free space now;
When I connect the phone to zune software it reports 900 megs free
When I pull the card out and insert it to winxp sp3 it reports it has 200 megs ALL.
I know about how to format the sd back but I just want to understand how WP7 uses the SD card.
Can anyone explain? What partions does wp7 creates and how it manages the SD spacE?
What's with the different reports about free space (about phone and zune ? )
Thank you
i had tested for the forum with my SDcard 2Gb and my phone only restart so if a have my 16Gb SD HC my phone is OK !! and work fine !!

Fixed that issue: I'm on Android now

Solved the rebooting issue for me to. Thanks for this little fix. Running LEO512 with stock card here.
Hi
Sorry if this has been cleared up in another thread, but I cannot find the answer to this problem.
I am running Gingerbread 2.3 (Cynogen) on my phone via the file manager method. Everything was fine until one day after I booted back into Android after a normal soft reset - The keyboard would keep hitting "Q" no matter what I pressed. I could not open The browser as I would get an error message.
I thought maybe it was the extended battery I was using, so I reformatted my sd card, re booted gingerbread and everything was back to normal.
Then last week it happened again. I dont remember installing anything new. It is also not the build Im sure, because this did happen a while ago on another Cynogen mod I used.
I am pulling my hair out wondering what to do. There is no point in reinstalling it because it will happen at a seemingly random time again.
Does anyone have any clue or suggestions on how to fix this??
Thanks

Maybe it's a bug in the ROM
Try different rom and see if this problem still persists, if yes, maybe a hardware problem related issue
Cheers
There are a few roms with 100% support for the official extended batteries(s). Your best bet is to go with one of them.

Hello,
I had to put my phone to repair because it died completely. Today I got my phone back, they replaced the battery and main PCB.
Before the repair I used CM7 on the phone without any problems. I also installed CM7 on another 3 Defys of my friends, so I pretty much know what am I doing.
The problem I have is that if I flash CM7 (any version - 7.1, 7.2RC, nightly) or MIUI, the phone stays in an endless restarting loop. Sometimes it even boots up completely and then restarts again.
The strange thing is that if I flash back the original ROM (jrdnem_u3_3.4.2_179-002) the phone works without any problems.
Do you have any idea what might be wrong or what should I try?

Try wiping data/cache before and after flashing CM/MIUI.
I know its not necessary and u r following the right process. Sometimes these things just do the trick.
I tried that, unfortunately it didn't help. I don't know what can be wrong with the phone. Maybe the overclocking from 800 MHz to 1 GHz causes the problem.
Do you know if I can disable it somehow? Or is there another 2.3 ROM which I could try?
Hello everyone!
I encountered two problems with my HD2 having installed Gingerbread 2.3.7 Nexus-HD. The first one; sometimes, I don't know sure why, and what causes this, but when I lock the phone and I try to unlock it( immediately, I didn't try to wait for longer) it doesn't unlock, but the display turns from dark(as locked) to a little bit grey, as if it would work, but I cannot see what I am doing.
The second one, sometimes, I think after I run a game, or something that requires more power and I press the HOME button, when I try to enter the Menu, it flashes continously.( as if it would change rapidly from Menu, to Home screen)
Where these problems might come from and what can I do in order to fix them ?
Really sounds like a hardware issue, try pressing the buttons hard and releasing a few times.
Did any liquid get on the phone ?

Had alot of this issue on slow dying sdcard. My experience is your card have some problems. Try to check your card windows pc, start CMD and type- chkdsk (drive letter of sd card): /x /f or try to format your card with sdformatter pc freeware.

You can try flashing the rom again. Before doing it, remeber to format your sd card. Try other roms too. If the problem persists in evry rom, then try a different sd card. after this the only problem will be your hardware.
Give a thanks if you found this Helpful
I don't think it is a hardware problem, beacause it worked all fine a few days ago, and the phone didn't took any damage in this time. I have this HD2 from a friend and when he gave it to me, I wanted to reinstall the ROM,bacause I wanted not to appear anymore his google account. I am a beginner in HTC and I installed this ROM following a tutorial, but I am not sure I did eveything all right. I wonder how I could erase everything and install a good,stable ROM from scratch, but I need an exact tutorial for this.
Meanwhile, those problem solved by themselves, but now I get the same freezing screen when I try to call or someone calls me. I can hear them, but it just freezes and I cannot do anything, unless I remove the battery. It doesn't happen all the time, but very often...
LE: Right now I'm trying another ROM, I installed a version of CWM of 150 mb( as requested by this ROM) and wiped everything and now it is installing hyperdroid CM7 v5.5.2.
I have to say that with the previous ROM I tried to remove the SD and the same error, so I thought that changing it may be a solution.
