The best working solution for wp7 7740 - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

FIRST I want to thank everyone who has worked on ALL of the ROMS, CABS, TOOLS, and everything else on this Forum! Amazing work and skill.
Ok so after reading postings of here and other places over two days I had tried 10 different configurations and different ROMS. I have found what works great for me I am runing wp7 7740 with no problems and great battery and data service.
I followed the instructions for installing [ROM] Back to the Future [XBmod-Yuki] [7740](HD2_Updatable_XBmod_Yuki_v2_native)
Flash the rom without SDcard
Or if you have already flashed remove it and do a factory reset
- After system loaded, update in ZUNE to 7392 without SD card
- After booting succesfully 7392 go in settings/about and reset the phone
- When phone reboot insert your SDcard
- You will load system and the SDcard should works well now
- Install the DeviceProvisioning cab using WP7-Update-Cab-Sender instructions
- Continue to update to 7720 IN ZUNE but this time with SDcard
- Install the 7720-7740-6mn.cab using WP7-Update-Cab-Sender instructions
My phone has never worked better. I mean WOW I am so impressed. I had tried 10 different configurations to get a working SD card and an updateable system with zune. The reason I used the cab installer for 7740 was because Zune just kept saying my phone was up to date even after reinstalling the DeviceProvisioning cab. I ran into an error in zune 800B010A while trying the ISV Beta Cleanup update. But what worked for me was simply activating the live services on the phone. I got a activation code from MS a while back and have been able to use that. One done BAM it went right to the next step instead of poping up that error.
I did try using the Kingston 16gb micro sdhc glass 4 and It just froze everytime and became locked even when i tried the DEV_STORAGELOCK cab the card would freeze up after i installed it. All of my other cards would work fine and could be unlocked. What is interesting is The Kingston is brand new and the others are over a year old have been used several times and are a class 2.
I was able to use zune for apps, games and music. I have used my wireless data service with out having to put in any setting it just turned on and worked.
As for the Battery, I left my phone unplugged all night with all the services turned and and Guess what there was still power when I woke up. Usually with every other rom and solution it is dead. and a Pain to get back up and running.
There was only one thing that is not working and that is the compass and I actually never use it so not a problem. I was able to zoom in with touch very nicely! WIFI is fast and 3g is fast. I use t-mobile.
I could always leave detailed step by step instructions of what I did to get everything working if anyone wants me to.
Thanks to all,
Philip

I share almost the same experiences, here is my way: updated with ZUNE to 7392 (but with sd card) and then install the DeviceProvisioning cab. Update with ZUNE to 7403. Hard reset. Then using WP7-Update-Cab-Sender update to 7720, hard reset again and same way to 7740

I have to agree. Xbmod/Yuki BTF ROM is awesome. I can't begin to express my admiration for the woirk these guys have done.

Have you guys installed the SP1 update cab? Solves HTC driver issues and adds some new tweaks. This rom just gets more awesome by the day!

Windows Marketplace Problems

Anyone having any issues with Windows Mobile Marketplace this morning? It may just be an issue with flashed ROMs. Mine was running fine yesterday afternoon but last night I tried to kick it off and it said there was an update available and it would try to download it. It gets to the same point every time(about 85%) and says that Windows Marketplace cannot connect right now. I know I don't have any connection issues. Still doing the same thing for me this morning.
I did the registry hack a little while back to change the version to .5.3.00 or something like that and it worked fine.
Anyone have any problems with it, or is it working for anyone with a cooked ROM?
Yup I'm getting the same message. I'm on unbranded UK Touch pro2 using stock 6.5. I've also got a CAB installed that allows me to save apps on my SD card. don't know if that might nake a difference.
At least I know I'm not alone I wonder what the fix is...
i was getting that same error and uninstalled marketplace and used this cab. everything is back to normal now

Ok, for those who are getting the "Windows Marketplace for Mobile cannot connect right now. Try again later." I have been able to duplicate the error occurring w/ the hacked version of Marketplace that comes from XDA which allows storage to SD card.
After un-installing hacked version & replacing w/ default Marketplace software, it updates properly now. I uninstalled default version and re-installed hacked version I got the error message again. I finally un-installed hacked version again and re-installed default version and now everything is working again.
Hope this helps!
BTW, I have 6.1 on T-Mo TP2.
Yeah i have the same problem... I uninstall marketplace then reinstall the stock marketplace and it works fine, then install the hack version that allows SD card saves and get error message...... still no luck with hacked version.......
same thing here. but i've come to the conclusion that marketplaces sucks anyhow. and if i cant download to my sd card that i DON"T want it on my phone. so till xda comes up with a new verison for the sd card i will not put it on my phone
it driving me crazy i just cant get marketplace to connect..
after i updated my rom to windows 6.5 official t-mobile UK ..
i have tried changing the registry like says in the forum but still doesnt work..
i have tried the hacked version and the official and still will not work.
the hacked version says needs to update and while updateing just shutsdown..
any help will be great thanks..

wp7 first update process recording. hd2 Please do not update

1. phones are connected to the computer tips, zune tips Update - This step updates zune
2. Update finished restart the computer, mobile phone and computer still prompts - this step update wp7
3. Phone restart the update process twice, the first mobile phone icon appears on a mobile phone and computer icons, that is being updated, you can not disconnect the cable
4. After completion of the second telephone restart is complete.
The following is the outcome:
1. Update completed - but prompt registry error, error code: 80180089
2. Phone also, as before, has not been re-locked, it now appears the update was not successful does not bring any bad influence
Off-topic:
1. My hd2 has been disguised as hd7-through change registry
2. Microsoft Hong Kong live account is given - call me in the past to the
3. Usually use the normal function (including the market, simultaneously, zune show hd7, found my phone) - does not appear abnormal
hd2 Please do not update:
1. After the update failed to install the xbox game market, reboot several times, has never been this situation before, do not know how it is
2. Also automatically crashes, are several times
Alas, only to re-install wp7
Look forward to an expert forum to identify and resolve, ha ha
I have exactly same problem. What the solutions may found? :||| I need updates.
Some people say that to reset phone and after that on HD2 updates will be work. How u think it will be work? And when I will reset my phone, it meand that I will lost all my phone data? or it possible with some ways to save a data and when make an phone reset.
Please if u have any ideas respond me about my questions. Have u tried phone reset method?
Hi
Me too.
Got this damn error code: 80180089 when tried to updae my HD2. It says that it cannot backup my phone due to a registry change. There should be a way to update without having to backup first.
Same Problem with my HD2. I do not want a damn backup. If something goes wrong i would simply reinstall everything. That is annoying. I Hope there will be a solution comming up. :-/
hi
in the process of updating - registry error, error code: 80180089 on my HD2
but works fine. yet...
I think we need registry data of original wp7 to install update, because our cracked windows registry is demaged or not full. have someone tried to reset phone and install update on wp7?
do any of you actually read the threads? dont update tot he new version
i have read and why don't update a new version? it seems that problem in registry and some users who updated their phones it works fine, not blocking and chevron tool for deploying xap files still exists. i think its not harmful for our cracked hd2 to have an updates.
tried to update my hd2, too and got the same error. but no problems appeared... so i guess i just wait until someone finds a solution for this
Error on update WP7/HD2
Same error here, but works normaly after restart. It just can't back it up because of registry settings....

The update doesn't work for anyone with HD2s... it was known from beginning that automatic updates would not work with HD2... we have a ported wp7 on our devices.
Tried a reset and the update still did not work. Same registry error. Not surprised just want to try and share the info.
First I got the error code 801812C1 but after two retries that went through. The registry error code 80180089 can’t be bypassed.
Manual injection of CAB files in the future I guess. Yes I know custom ROM on a unsupported phone.
Don't kill the messenger. I'm just sharing info here.
Used XP SP3 with newest zune software.
Looks like some other guys with samsung omnia7 have this issue with the update and microsoft is working on it. I guess that will be solved in a few days

Do you think we will be able to update our HD2s then?
I don't think so, but I like surprises
Probably will not work on the HD2 since its most likely looking for anything funny in the registry. Pick your choice, not the right hardware, hacked OS, chevron, side load apps, custom settings. Unless if people that have virgin phones and still get the same errors then anything is possible. They might have to allow future updates to have more variations or be more lenient on what its looking for before the patch gets installed. That’s my two cents anyway.
Phones: G1, ATT ARIA, HD2
In a microsoft thread, I read that the problem with samsung omnia 7 is about backing up the phone. The same as HD2. So I think there might be some hopes for us
maybe the problem come from detected usb hardware driver that seem to be different from that in hd7.. i say this because when the hd2 display shown the icon of pc & hd2 , after the first reboot, a symbol no usb connection appear.
Its a pointless update, why bother...
Tried... but failed

No, I'm sure that was just telling us not to remove the USB connection ha ha. I just tried the update, same error code. Remaining hopeful that this is same problem as Omnia or whichever phone was mentioned before, but I have doubts and wont be too shocked if it has nothing to do with it and we cant update the OS this way. If this doesn't work someone will come up with something. Might just have to reflash with each major update. It wuld be annoying but its better than nothing ha ha.
Customized ROM from HD2 can't Update the OS! HD2 owners should wait until devs cook the update in their Roms! This update is pointless but actually Microsoft made this update to prepare your phone for the next update! (??LOL??) I know that you guys made the tweak in order to disguise the HD2 to HD7 but still... So be more patient or buy an official WP7 as i did!

[Q] Touchxperience doesn't launch?

Hi,
I've just flashed Xbmod's nodo rom. A beautiful rom! But there's one problem, I installed the included Windows Phone Device Manager, and it seems to connect fine to my hd2. It says that it's detected, then it says that it's installing Touchxperience. After that I get an error message stating that it can't launch touchxperience. It does show up in the installed programs list, but when I launch it, it shows a black screen for 3-5 seconds, then it goes back the the list again. I searched the net about this problem, and I saw other people have it too, but I don't see any solution.
Thanks
(I also have installed al the requirements for wpdm)
Ran into the same problem this morning. Havent looked into it very much. Was trying to load my US navigon maps.
It worked perfectly fine with an older 7004 build I had on my phone.
Possibly not compatible with NODO. Definately installs the xap though. Dont the apps have to update for the NODO build. Not sure. Havent had much time recently to mess around with phones as much. So my knowledge is sort of limited on newer issues.
Hopefully it gets figured out. Just noticed that someone got the US navigon maps working and thats the one app I really missed having on WM. Not that I use it all the time but nav comes in handy when it needed.
I'm using ROM XBmod 1.11 and got same problem.
I tried to install touchXperience manually with .xap file and then launch it on my phone, still cannot start.
Someone said that maybe some hacks on the ROM cause this problem. I checked "dehydrate" hack and saw the registry key is default (DehydrateOnPause = 3).
Any other suggestion?

Take mobile off usb, power down and power back up again. now try touch Xperience.
Is it now showing? If so to marry with WPDM. put usb in, now if Zune starts, close it down. Start up WPDM. wait till it connects with the TouchX.
Is it now working? I am using Xmob 1.11 rom, and have no problems. But make sure that the ROM is cool, and not hot.
FPM.

If you are using Advanced Config 1.2.1.1 (From Julian Schapps) Then slide it over to Tweeks.
There should be a tick on the Dont dehydrate apps on pause. Leave the tick on.
That should fix it.

Manual update to 7720.68 via WP7 Update Cab Sender utility

Hi,

i too had got this error, but i think my phone was kinda messed up..
went back to magldr and flashed back xbmod-yuki v2 rom and started the update process again, all through the cabs..
the only thing i did this time is that i didnt take all the languages, just chose the ones which came pre-installed with the rom.. put those together with the other 2 update files and it worked without a problem
im on 7720 now, no zune involved
edit:
& also, dont post questions in the dev thread again please

1.
OK If you went from flashing ROM 7004 [ version 2 ] to 7403 did you upload also 7401 ?
2.
Did you send in 7.0.7004.0-7.0.7403.0 also the canonical CABS ?
I did it second time via "WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat" and I put there also canonical CAB and it shows me same error like first time.
Thanks for help.
locked card
The problem could be because of locked SD card. If you use SD card with different WP7 installation, the card get locked and cant be visible for new WP7 installation.
I found that even for Zune it seems that you have working card - after connection you se storage of your card.
But when you start to access the card with update, doesnt matter if by Zune or by sending cab, the card is encrypted for old installation of WP7 and new installation of WP7 cannot access it.
So try to unlock the SD Card and then try new installation of WP7 with whole update. Should be working!!

have you done hard reset after instaling? sideloading requiers it.. (settinsgs/about/reset)
Tom's XAP will report that it has failed, but it works. You have to have Zune running and you have to be on first or app screen. Not on lock screen.
Hi
Thank you for the quick help, it was the Hardreset I had missed.
[EDIT] Tom XAP Installer actually does not fail now with the 4 XAP files I have tried [/EDIT]
/Lars
Doh... I needed to hardreset trice before it worked, was close to ripping the (very little) hair I have left...
Thanks!

does this mean I have to get a new activation key (for hd2) when I install this rom? I got one with a DFT derived 7392 rom recognised as an hd7.

It may be worth changing it to HD7 as MS are possibly snooping.
