I have one o the first T-Mobile wallaby, p/n 99HL0000-00
It originally (2003) came with 3.14.40, R6.18
Now I have R6.25.02
it boots with 3.17.07
I want to make it WM2003.
It does not boot 4.01.16, T-Mobile official upgrade, 4.00.33
(yes, I spent lot of time in the ROM Kitchen lately...)
Is there a WM2003 that this hardware will boot, or have I missed something paramount in the upgrade process? (using XDA OS, bootloader, and SD cards)
Thanks or any advice!
More Info
ok,
When switched on, it is supposed to pling ihin 20 seconds. All display updates (ROM versions) take place, but the pling and start of screen lignment never happens. Screen stays on until out of battery.
I had this problem when using an mmc card, when I used an sd card it worked fine, I have no idea why.
I have the unbranded hd2 with hspl on, never had the sms issue. being a great fan of xda flash my fone at least 3 times a week. Every thing worked fine until i flashed the latest o2 rom 1.72.xx and i was hit with the sms bug... 'UNABLE TO SEND SMS' with a ! in a small triangle in the message. as this was never a issue i thought flashing the 1.43.xxx the original rom will fix it... nope did not work, tried 1.66 and a custom rom too but no luck.
I have been using a voda sim before i had the issue so after the official o2 rom i got the issue. when i tried flashing the above mentioned roms i had the voda sim in my phone and did not fix it.
Here is what i did..
1. Put an o2 ( or any other sim in your case apart from the sim you have the issue with).
2. flashed the 1.43.xx official rom (flash the original rom your device came with if your phone is branded flash the generic rom 1.43.xx or 1.66 so you can proceed with the next step)
3. run the full setup as you normally would. like - setup time, wifi, agree to location.. etc. and importantly setup the automatic connection for the new sim in the device.
4. sent a test message with the o2 sim.
5. shut down device not taking battery out.
6. insert my voda sim ( the orginal sim the one you use daily)
7. power device and go through the full setup again in step 3.
and to my surprise the hd2 was bak in full force.. Hopefully this may help you guys as this has certainly helped me.
cheers.
I recently installed win 7 on hd2 and activated, everything was working including market but now i dont have 3g service only wifi

do what you have already tried but set it for a different network, restart, then change it back to your actual network, also try reseating your SIM card.
Worked for me, hope it works for you too!
what type of apn setting do you recommend
initially change it to anything other than your network
so, if i was on orange, i would change to O2, restart, then change it back to orange and restart
HTC tool should help with your settings or use google
so, google "T-Mobile US APN settings" without quotes if t mobile US was your network
i tried what you suggested no luck in the u.s. the sttings are suppose to be epc.tmobileus.com but still does not work
long shot but try giving your SIM card a clean and stick it back in, another longshot is try installing WITHOUT an SD card, just curious if that is another one of the issues that can happen with a incompatible card, yeah i know the rest is working fine but try it and see, you never know!
other than that im running out of ideas...
did you download the htc data connection app from marketplace, or can you, to automatically configure your hd2 for tmous?
why were you manually trying to configure your hd2 for t-mobile network?
best bet is to re-flash since it worked before.
the 3g service stopped working when activated the phone .... market works but i can only log in through wifi and i did download htc connection set up and ran the app it said that the apn was set . but when i tried to run internet explorer its says no data service.

use epc.tmobile.com... That's the one I used worked fine. Now I just use connection setup to setup my mms messages also.
Also stupid question is the 3g switch on in settings.
I've got the same Problem....
I'd the same Problem on Nand Android so i decided to switch to win7. But same Problem here. If i have 3g enabled i got no Service at all. If i disable 3g i got Service and Data Connection begins to work.
See this Thread in Android section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971920
So any hints how to get 3g working?

start again,
flash a stock original ROM for your device, put it all the way back to WM6
you will need to SD card flash this ROM
then go through all the steps, HSPL, Radio, magldr then try WP7
when things dont add up its often best to start from scratch.
I've done exactly that when i migrate from android to WP7. The only thing remains on the Phone was HSPL. And after all (installing MAGLDR and so on) the Problem persists.

if hspl was still on then you didnt stock original ROM flash via SDcard
you need to download an official ROM from whoever sold the phone
doing that will remove hspl, reinstall the spl, radio and the ROM
make sure its an old ROM with a 1.4x SPL, then install hspl again, 2.08
Ok I've done what you tell me.
I have a Device from Vodaphone Germany and i can't find any Rom with 1.4x. The oldest i found was 1.72.
I extracted the Rom and copy the LEOIMG to the sdcard. Power on Phone with Vol down and flashed the ROM with sdcard. Reboot the Phone and all cames up fine.
Power down Phone and wen't into SPL Mode, installed HSPL, updated Radio to 2.15.50.14 and installed MAGLDR 1.13.
After this i flashed my WP7 Rom and let it boot. Choose all my seetings in the wizzard. Enter my LiveID credentials and tapp on login. And after a few seconds i get the Message the Phone could not Connect!
But it seems this is another issue cause i got a big "H" and full Service.
Thank you very much!

am i right in thinking that was different to the previous problem, where it would only connect with 3G disabled?
if thats the case that happened to me as well, i had to do the HTC connection wizard trick, change it to something else, restart, change it back again, restart
everytime i flash i have to do that which isnt too much of a pain
Hi everyone, i hope i'll find an answer cause i can't understand what's going on with my HD2 !
So, my hd2 keep losing signal, at first i taught it was a radio related thing, so i flashed a 2.12 radio (was on 2.15.40), but the problem is still there. So i decided to change the rom, cause the problem showed up after i installed a android sense rom (this one) i installed i miui stable rom, and still have it.
Here, i decided that the problem maybe came from my sim card so tried my wife's sim card (same operator) and another sim card (different operator) and it worked just fine, no losing signal at all.
So I've changed my sim card with a new one and the problem still occurs!!!!
Decided to flash a windows phone 7 rom, (just to be sure) and problem still there.
I can't understand what's wrong, i have this problem just with my sim card !!! any help please
Try flashing a stock Windows Mobile ROM and see if you still have the problem.
ok i'll try that thank you. hope that will fix it
Hi there,
I have a dual boot system with stock WM6.5 and SD android.
When using the android OS i notice that the signal bars sometimes are lower than when using WM and i even get no bars at all.
I dont know if your problem has the same cause as mine, but try to flash the stock rom and check.
Worth a shot.
Regards
no my problem is a bit different. cause my sim card don't lose's signal on my phone. but work well on other phones. on the other hand, other sim card's work's well on my phone. So i have the problem with my sim card in my phone!!! that's what's driving me crazy.
By the way flashed a stock rom but it didn't solve my problem

Wi-Fi is using similar memory controller as SD card. I had an issue where my SD got corrupted and Wi-Fi did not turn on because of it aswell. So try removing/replugging the SD card (and restart afterwards).
Ty for your answer blefish, i try what u do and try with another SD card, and i put my SD to another device. and i can´t turn on wifi, but my friend phone´s works well.
UPDATE: i made a downgrade to 2.2.2 froyo and WiFi Works Well.. any hint to upgrade my phone? whitout lose WiFi?¡
]when you're on ICS do you have an IMEI number? If not your phone is screwed on any ROM higher than GingerBread. Mine is the same. It just cycles through the connecting cycle on and off. I've even tried forcing an IMEI number through a program but it didn't change anything.
EDIT: nevermind finally after hours and hours of trying to revive this phone I got my IMEI back and wifi working. Damn it took ages to figure out.
Flashed to Official Gingerbread, then done the steps of retoring my IMEI number which is listed behind my battery. I used DFS tools for this and a post that tells you how to access the project setting menu to enable the settings. Then I wrote my IMEI number back on my phone, then rooted it and installed a custom recovery. Then from there installed Aurora ICS and used another post here to write my Mac address found behind my battery using Terminal Emulator. And bam! my wifi isnt stuck in a loop trying to connect anymore.
I got an IMEI number but the wifi dosent work, do I need to simply use TWRP to get official? then go back?
