the rom im using is V-aero gps with rev A.
my phone works only the things i said don't!
WARNING TO ALL!!!

Bricking the phone means the phone will no longer operate. Does not work in any fashion. What you are describing is not bricking. Troublesome, yes. Brick no. Just thought I mention that...

What exactly is wrong w/ the bootloader? Can you get the bootloader up at all? If you can, you're not bricked.

Just to confirm I have had no problems with any of dcd's 2.x roms and sbp backup.

Misleading title.
I've been using SPB backup for months now, and it's always worked perfectly. That in your specific case on a cooked rom based on a leaked radio something went wrong doesn't mean it won't work.
If I had to make a guess, I'd say you tried to do a restore of a previous backup onto a recently upgraded device?

Please be careful in the words you are using. I personally have been using SPB Backup for a couple of years across many versions of Windows Mobile. SPB has been there for me every time. I personally recommend SPB backup without hesitation.
Perhaps there is another reason for the most unfortunate problems you are encountering.
Currently I am using dcd kitchen 2.3.2.

I also use SPB Backup, and have actually used it to restore... and it works flawless.

I was wondering about this exact issue. I'm trying to research the upgrading process before I jump in. I gather that (in most cases) you can store your contacts, etc. before flashing a new ROM then restore after the upgrade. Is this correct?

yes. I'm not sure how well the system data would restore on a full backup (I've never restored the system data) with a different version of windows mobile but it will restore your contacts, tasks, appointments and messages (text, email and mms).

I've upgraded and downgraded my radio without losing anything. I went from 3.39 to 3.42.02 to 3.42.30 and back to 3.42.02 and then back to 3.42.30 again.
But if you go from like a GPS radio to a non-GPS radio, you will be forced to upgrade your ROM as well, and then you will lose your data. You must make sure that your radio(s) are compatible with the ROM you have.
As another newbie, I had written myself a chart, is this the right thinking?
Update SPL : FINE
Update Radio : FINE
Update ROM : loose everything and if using a DCD rom, make sure to run the verizon cab.
Obviously one must look at the compatibility chart for SPL/Radio/ROMs that work together.
Also, doing the ROM is the only time you have to call to get a new A-Key and resetup the phone? (my thought, not totally sure, I am a newbie). I did my phone for the first time 3 days ago and did all 3. I used Oilpro 2.4 and am thinking up updating to nueSPL. I don't think that will cause any issues.

If you upgrade the Radio via RUU, it will perform a hard reset. The only way to upgrade the radio without losing anything is to flash via SD card method.

Thanks alot for this information
Thanks also. I did my first update via USB, now I will learn the increasingly popular (and seems easier) SD card method, just as soon as UPS shows up with my big card so I can take the stuff off my small card and transfer I will make sure to keep that in my notes!

HTC HD2 - Phone Doesn't Ring Sometimes

I have an HTC HD2 and I'm on T-mobile. What I've noticed is that my phone doesn't ring sometimes and then I'll just get a voicemail notification (if voicemail was left). It's an intermittent issue, I've tested it several times from another line.
Does anybody know what the issue is? I did a search on Google and there seems to be a lot of the same issues others are having across other networks and other versions of the HTC but, haven't found a solution.
Thanks
i had never heard of this issue until yesterday, when my phone simply did not ring, then i got a txt asking why i didnt answer. very confusing. only seemed to happen once. i have done a lot of tweaks, so maybe ive changed something i shouldnt have. if it helps im using a generic, unbraded, factory unlocked HD2, with CleanEX DsE 3.5 and radio 2.11. have you tried re-flashing the ROM and seeing if that helps?
interestingly, i have noticed that my signal can be irratic at times, often just dropping for no reason, then coming back about 30 seconds later. i live in a full signal area, so i know thats not a problem. also my data connection will 'freeze' at times, where it shows its connected, but nothing is able to use it, i have to disconnect and reconnect, and this may take 2 or 3 attempts before it connects and is usable. have you experienced the same issues?

I haven't tried flashing the ROM, I've been hesitant on doing that since I feel like I might mess something up. I'm not sure how to either. I have SPB backup, so I would hope if I messed something up then I would be able to easily restore it.
I haven't really noticed any dropping, my call qualities have been good. I've tried to dial a number before and it might drop right then while it's trying to make the call. So, I'll redial the number but, once I'm connected I haven't noticed any issues with calls dropping.
Data connection has been working pretty good as well, I've been using the wifi quite a bit and not really had any issues. I don't have a data plan setup with T-Mobile so I just use the wifi. I don't know if using the actual data connection would give different results than using the wifi.
flashing a rom is really easy it's all autoinstall, just have to read carefully / look at the video's, there A LOT of them out there.

updating the rom may help, as it will also update the radio drivers. what i would suggest, if you dont have much experience in flashing a ROM is to have a look on the official HTC support site. on there it will give you a list of updates avalible for your phone. download the latest ROM for your phone (for me, this is WWE 1.66 with radio 2.06) and install that. any data on an sd card will remain intacted, but sync you phone with outlook and backup stuff like contacts, messages etc before you do it. i personally use microsoft myphone to do all that.
flashing the ROM with an official one is very straight forward, and as quoted above, its all auto install on the phone, and there are about 3 or 4 steps that you need to do PC side (this is all explained in the update program you download). i would give that a go and see if things improve, you will also gain improved performance, new features and better battery life with newer ROMs, so its worth doing
custom roms are a bit more tricky to install, but often offer more features and improvements over stock roms. if you need help with this have a search on the forums, there are lots of guides and help on how to flash with a custom rom

I have a T-Mobile HTC HD2 (U.S.) and I went to the HTC site and on the download page for the ROM update it has ROM Version: 1.66.707.1. When I check the ROM version on my phone it is: 2.10.531.1.1 (82076) WWE
Also it says on there - Note: This update is not intended for use on T-Mobile(US) HTC HD2, and doing so may have undesired side effects.
So, I suppose I'll have to start looking into the custom ROM's.

good job you didnt flash that, the 'undesired side effect' of flashing that official rom (or any other non tmous official rom) on your tmous phone would have been a permanently dead phone.
im not sure about tmous roms, maybe have a look on the t-mobile us support site and see if anything is listed there. if you want to look at custom roms the first thing you will need to do is get hspl (the latest version is hspl3, which i believe is compatible with tmous). if you search on the forums you can find the official thread. this removes the security checks and allows you to install custom roms. after that you will need to choose a radio version. again search on the forum and find the latest one compatible with your hd2 (there is an official radio thread which i would look at). this normally comes with an updater program included, but if not, search for 'custom ruu' and follow the instructions on the thread. finally you need to pick a custom rom. there are literally 100s to choose from, with different features, looks, apps and even some android builds. personally, i use cleanex dse because of its speed and stability. im not sure if this is tmous compatible, so check on the rom threads.
alternativly, you could have a hardware fault with your phone, which will be repaired under warrenty, so you could go down this route. personally, i would do this first and see if things improve, as although custom roms can be uninstalled and the steps can be reversed, the warrenty is voided by using hspl and installing custom roms.
still have the problem? Might not need a hard reset. Try this solution here:
(LINK)
One of your programs might have deleted the "Volatile" folder, so
no Volatile folder => no WMPlayer => no MP3 playback => no ringtone.
Re-creating an empty "\Application Data\Volatile" folder usually brings it all back.
If it fixes the problem temporarily and recurs again, you might have to change the temp folder as outlined in the link above, or just install that CAB.
Hope this helps. If this solves your problem, please edit/add [solved] to your title.

I have the same problem. Sometimes incoming call does't ring, altough the phone vibrates. I'm using an european HD2 with the original 1.48 rom. I didn't found the reason... the changed tweak... the influencing application installed. It seems happening randomly, I can get a call without incoming call ring and after a few minutes I can get a second call from the same caller with a normal ring.

[Q] New radio 47.63.35.21U_7.16.35.11

Hi all,
I am new to android so please forgive me if i am unclear about my question.
I've also digged for answers but came up with nothing.
Anyway I was hoping someone could help me with the new radio 47.63.35.21U_7.16.35.11.
Ever since i've upgraded to 7.16, i've lost the abilities to:
1. connect to mobile network
2. able to detect and lock on to any satellites.
Downgrading to the original radio didn't solve those issues...
I am currently using Gene Poole's Liberated hfr005b and it's awesome! Battery acting like it should.
My satellite problem is very similar to klbmth in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12477387&postcount=25
and as for my mobile network i've tried changing settings as instructed by lateral18 in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14117740&postcount=556
i did my hard reset/wipe dalvik/format system before i flashed my aria with hfr005b and the new radio.img...
does anyone have similar problems to my situation??
Thanks in advance!
Do you have an AT&T-branded Aria? If so, I'd suggest running the RUU from here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9D9NGT6J
This will restore your phone back to the factory default (including reverting the radio back to the original state).
You can do this without losing any settings by doing this:
1) Make a Nandroid backup.
2) Run the RUU to revert your phone back to factory defaults and (hopefully) fix the radio problem. Important: Do not use the RUU from HTC's website. If you do you won't be able to root afterward. Use the one in the link above.
3) Make sure everything is working again (mobile connection and GPS).
4) Use Unrevoked again to reinstall Clockwork on the phone.
5) Once you have Clockwork installed, do a Nandroid restore. Nandroid does not back up the radio image so you should be back just like you were except with a working radio image.
Also I'd strongly suggest not installing any radio updates in the future.
Hi drumist!
thanks for the quick reply!!!
yes i do have AT&T branded Aria and i'll definitly try out your suggestion.
i flashed the new radio because it was said to "fast lock to sats" and so on... which seemed nice to have
i had no idea it would have such an effect on my aria (when it is fine with everyone else)...
however i was wondering, if not too much trouble, could you please elaborate why updating radio is not a good idea?

Well, basically it's one of the few risky things you can install on your phone. When you install a ROM, there's basically no risk involved because even if the installation fails, you can just get back into Clockwork and install another one or try again. There's no risk of permanent damage.
Installing a radio image through Clockworkmod, however, is somewhat risky. Ideally nothing goes wrong and it works fine. However if something DOES go wrong, it's possible to permanently brick your phone in the process.
There's nothing specifically bad about updating the radio -- if it works then it's no big deal. But since it seems like something did go wrong on your phone when you installed the radio, you're lucky that the phone is still working at all.
I doubt you would even notice any difference between the two radio versions anyway. The differences appear to be very minor.

Having just bricked my phone with messing with radio images, I couldn't agree with you more.
T
thanks for the quick explanation drumist!
and sorry to hear tedkunich's aria was bricked from flashing radio image... that sucks
just to report back:
GPS is working fine again! found sats within seconds and got a few fixes within half a min...
mobile network, on the other hand, isn't... i think it has to do with Gene's ROM... because when i restored a previous backup (fr008) i can connect (WCDAM) right away...
anyway i am more than grateful already... and i'll do more digging on the mobile network issue...
thanks again!

ROMs unstable after reboot

So I got an Evo 3D GSM a few days ago and upon installing a custom ROM on it, the phone worked perfectly up until the first reboot. At which point it began to reboot frequently so I reverted back to stock and it was fine. I then tried another ROM though from the same developer and once again it was fine up until the first reboot and then again it became unstable.
At this point I know it could just be that I used 2 different Sense 3.5 ROMs from Shooter that's been causing the problem but unless that's a known issue which I couldn't seem to find, I'd rather not install another ROM just to test this out.
Basically I'm wondering if I could be doing something wrong, I installed it through ClockworkMod Recovery which never gave me problems on my Nexus One. Also if I'm going to test if it's just an issue with the ROMs, can anyone suggest a stable and relatively customizible ROM?
Are you doing a clean install, full wipe?
Also, are you loading apps and settings back into the phone from Titanium or the like?
Ya when I attempted to do it non-clean it was unstable off the bat. The last time I basically wiped everything. I have been using Titanium Backup to restore apps but I also used it on stock(I backed up from my Nexus originally) and it hasn't given me any problems there.
Try flashing the rom first again and this time don't use tb to restore data to apps. I've seen and read quite a few times that tb can cause all kind of weird problems when restoring data+apps. Try just restoring just the apps and see if the issue still remains.
#Root-Hack\Mod*Always_
""Shooter on Deck""
I went through the apps I don't need first and removed the backups, I never did restore data, just apps. MikRunny seems to be running stable so problem solved though I still don't know if it was ROM related or just an app screwing with it.
if you flashed a new ROM, it was probably the ROM since it is working now, seeing as how you didn't restore any of your data. logically, that sounds right to me.

Moving Good for Enterprise app between roms w/o activating each time

Hi all.
Was wondering if anyone had any experience moving Good for Enterprise around from rom to rom?
I have a Galaxy Nexus (Verizon) and was looking to test out Jelly Bean, or at least move to the stock image once available.
Problem is with Good for Enterprise..it's no longer hosted by my company and as an IT admin I used to be able to root, rom, reset my activation pin, etc.
Currently the parent company has a 1 and done activation (very annoying); so if I flash I have to wait for another activation and I think one day they'll just WTF is with this guy?
Anyhow, was wondering if I were to take a backup of it and all its glory with Titanium backup, move to another rom and restore it, would it allow me to preserve my activation? I sort of tried it once, but it would never get any new email upon restore, so I was wondering if its really possible or if I am out of luck there?

You can easily move from rom to rom and keep the activation, you just need to put good in offline mode, quit, backup with TiBu, and then restore it while still in offline mode. once you put it back, you're good to go (this assumes that you can restore app data - which, always having root access myself, I don't know whether is possible without root).

same answer as above. you can do this EASILY as long as you can restore app data - just make sure to be in offline mode, quit the app, back it up, and then restore while still offline mode. e-mails will continue to flow if you do it this way (but, as you point out, not otherwise)

i know you can freeze it , flash the JB rom. play around and restore it back and still get emails.. I am more looking to to leave it on JB permanently and still get the emails. I have come to understand good checks for root access and files such as supersu and busy box. If I were to install the rom, unroot and then restore good I think it would detect root since virtually every toro JB rom requires root to work and has it built into the rom =\

You aren't listening. I'm not talking about freezing it. I'm talking about going offline in the good app...
Then back it up, and restore it to whatever rom you like. You just need to be able to restore app data, which may require root. If you unroot and the rom still works, no reason good shouldn't.
Thanks lordloki77! I've always gotta pester the guy who can issue PINs every time I flash a ROM. Hopefully this all works and I won't have to do it any more. I had thought it was something to do with the Android device ID, which I was able to backup/restore in TB, but that didn't work either.

Once you activate then go off line on the app, you can flash the rom and restore the app. does it continue to work beyond that? I have heard that GOOD periodically checks for a modified build prop, supersu and several other indicators that you have flashed a custom rom or have rooted and will kick you off once it does. I am looking for a permanent solution, not one that will work for a few days while i try a rom then flash back to stock. I don't think it is possible.

I can't answer your question except to say that I'm on a custom rom, custom kernel, and have superuser installed and Good is still receiving emails. It's only been a day, and I haven't changed roms yet since, but that's all I can report.
I dunno why Good gives a crap about whether we're rooted or have a custom rom, and even if it does, it should tell you somewhere instead of just not sending/receiving any more. It appears to work, but with no new messages. As I'm going on a business trip next week, I definitely don't want to mess with Good since I'll absolutely need email access. I'll probably try to restore to a new rom after I return.

You can easily move from rom to rom and keep the activation, you just need to put good in offline mode, quit, backup with TiBu, and then restore it while still in offline mode. once you put it back, you're good to go (this assumes that you can restore app data - which, always having root access myself, I don't know whether is possible without root).
same answer as above. you can do this EASILY as long as you can restore app data - just make sure to be in offline mode, quit the app, back it up, and then restore while still offline mode. e-mails will continue to flow if you do it this way (but, as you point out, not otherwise)

Just followed your procedure on Nexus 7 switching from unofficial to official CM10.1 nightly. Huge Thank You! Was tired/worried about continually pestering IT at work.
Data Plan
Wondering if anyone has Verizon and does NOT have an enterprise data plan to get Good to synch.
I had an iphone with Good on Verizon and just had my normal data plan - everything synced fine.

I know this is a very old thread, but in case anyone is interested, you do not need an enterprise data plan to use Good on Verizon. My organization originally told me that I needed to sign up for enterprise data, but they were wrong.
Anyone able to move good to a different device without reactivation? I've tried moving my TiBu backups and it appears that Good is looking for the specific model or device id..
