Ive flashed more than 4 diff radios and i have been getting the SOD on Android. Some worse than others and some with a slight 5 sec delay. Ive read around and some people say they have SOD-less Android running on their HD2. WHAT RADIO ARE YOU USING AND WHAT DID YOU DO IN THE PROCESS. THANK YOU FOR ANY RESPONSES. Ive been using Android as my main OS and I Love It. Only Thing Is The SOD.
Radios Ive Tried:
2.12.50.02.2

Well obviously the radio isn't the cause of the problems...I'm quite sure you've seen which radios people are using in various threads, and know that 2.10, and 2.12 are the most used and work fine...and which radio you are TOLD to use in the FAQs etc...
I suggest asking in here for more help regarding SOD.
It could be related to the ROM you are using, the build you are using...
1) Load HSLP3
1) Replace your Windows rom with the Chuckydroid Rom (add http) forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734238 (note: it's called "chuckydroid", but it's WM 6.5 that's been modified and "lightened" for android, so don't be confused like I was)
2) Use radio version 2.12.50.02_2
3) insert and then wipe your memory card.
4) Load Darkstone V2.1
Then, grab a brew and enjoy using Android Froyo 100% of the time, almost problem free. (compass does not work, and a few apps do not load, almost all the good ones do, however). GPS, Wifi is excellent.
Cheers!
fix

i agree, except i would use shrubcraft 1.4c with the 2.12 radio it seemed to fix all of my sod problems! i used to get the screens of death all the time!! hope this helps !!! make sure to reformatt the sd b4 u install the files onto it! i use windows to format!!
formatting will wipe everything on my sd. i have a 16gb and 3.3gb left. is wiping necessary and will make a difference?

bottom line - ( I WOULD LIKE TO DISPEL THIS MYTH )
1. HSPL version has no bearing at all running Android builds!
2. THERE IS NO SINGLE PARTICULAR ROM BUILD (Weather light or full Winmo)
so long as the Chef mentions it is Android Friendly!
3. There is no SINGLE PARTICULAR RADIO as long as it is recommended
4. there are a lot of stable builds at present that are GOOD FOR DAILY USE!

You can back up your SD card on your PC using the USB connection. Might take a while to backup 12 gigs, though.

Same here
I did have the 2.08 radio, and I was getting SOD's like nobody's business, but as soon as I switched to 2.12, no more SODs. Haven't had a single one since.
HSPL 2
Energy ROM - Cookie's
I haven't had a singe SOD
Tmo latest stock Radio 2.10.50.26
ROM Miri 17.6 23569
Shubcraft Roms.
Never had an SOD, i get screen freezes(5 secs) once or twice per day though, but i think this is "normal".
2.12.50.02_2
Sent from HTC HD2 using XDA app.
any lite rom to cooked for the purpose of running android on hd2 will work..
u can try either
EnergyROM for android
Chuckydroid
MiriROM
so far, these 3 roms are known to work great for running android..
next u need the proper radio..
2.12.50.02.2 works for sure for me because i had my phone on it for 3 full weeks and i have not have a SOD.. so i thought to be funny yesterday and flashed 2.11..
5 mins later i got an SOD.. so pls, use 2.12.50.02.2 and see if it solves ur problem..
lastly, u NEED TO REFORMAT THE SD CARD... no qns about that..
so in all, u need to do 3 things..
1) get a lite rom cooked to run android
2) flash 2.12.50.02.2
3) format ur sd card
do all of these above and u should not get any SOD..
and if i were u, i would back up my stuff, and only copy the android build files into the sd card and boot into it to and make sure that the sod cleared up before copying the other 12GB++ of stuff back in..
hope it works out right for u..
Same as the OP - running Elegancia v4, mattc froyo 1.5b, HSPL3 on tmous. With radio 2.08 I had constant SODs, flashed to 2.12 and I've been running android all day without a single SOD or crash.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
one thing that really helped me was doing a format on the sd card. Not a quick format, but the one that takes a long time to finish
I am on NRGZ 18 aug 23678 Cookies and 2.12 radio.
Never had any SODs with Miri,Dutty,NRGZ and kwbr
But I think that you must have an Android friendly ROM which is a 2.13 base

2 10 50 26 works a dream. No robo voice.
- pointless thread. many factors can cause SOD .
- all answers are in the threads surrounding this one or being worked on by devs.
I've been using 2.12.50 since before android came about, and I have very rarely had a sod,maybe in early days I was getting it occasionally but not daily. I've used all energy roms and still get same results. Only problems I found was when the zimages weren't as stable as they are now. But haven't had a single sod in over 2 weeks.

I'd like to know who all here have flashed the 2.06 rom and reflashed to another or downgraded back to the original because of rom instability.
If you have please post the instability issues you had and which rom you flashed to and why.
I have some instability issues but I'm trying to decide if I should try another rom and then I have to determine which rom.

Mods if this should be put somewhere else lock it and I'll repost in the thread you suggest.
I really liked that ROM, and I hate carrier customizations. But then XDA Live 0.1 came out and changed everything.
I had cingy rom installed but installed "Special K's" XDA-LIVE.

Are you having lockups with 2.06?
I have the new Cingular ROM on my 8525 and have been running it a few weeks. I like it (and find it stable) ... check out this thread I started and am trying to maintain dealing with known issues on the new ROM and some solutions (definitely check out the registry hacks on the wiki for this).
Personally, these issues are minor annoyances to me, and I have no thoughts of downgrading to the older ROM.

Is that because you watch entirely too much television, or because you paid entirely too much for mobile TV?!?
Just kidding, but not really.
bricked.
I flashed my JASJAM to the latest Cingular ROM, and noticed the bizarre SD card going missing problem. I tried to flash it back to the HTC ROM from November, and the stupid phone reset itself in mid-flash. Bricked.
No matter what I did, I couldn't get it back. The phone worked fine, except for the "NO GSM" error... which means no phone functions. I even put the 1.01 bootloader on there (but then it wouldn't let me upgrade it to 1.04). It refused to write to the radio portion of the ROM. I followed every instruction on here multiple times, with no luck, tried every ROM out there, tried every command (the erase... commands, etc). MTTY just showed it hanging every time on "Entering Radio Loader".
It's in California now, hopefully they'll be able to fix it. I'm sure they're going to charge me a small fortune since it's obvious I was screwing with it (it boots up with a 1.01 bootloader, and has an HTC logo on the splash, when it should be JASJAM).
In the meantime, I'm back on my Motorola L6. Oh god. I forgot how painful GPRS is. I'm lucky to get 23kbps.
I upgraded to the 2.06 rom and had all the decribed problems identified on this forum. I kept 'losing' all the contents of my sd card (a real problem with all the tomtom maps loaded plus music and photos)...couldn't get smartdial back to full function even with some updates...and i did face 3 or 4 freezes a day with the rom. I also couldn't get xm radio to stream properly (wouldn't load windows media player to stream music). I finally reflashed back to the original Cingy rom and have everything working good again. I hope when Cingular officially releases this rom update they will have these problem addressed and fixed.

I tried it (as well as the WWE Test ROM) and quickly reverted back to 1.35 afterwards. I could not successfully sync with two 'puters with either AKU3 version. I could sync OK with the first 'puter, then sync OK with the second 'puter, but as soon as I went to sync again with the first, ActiveSync would delete my existing partnership and ask me to create a new one, then the process would be repeated when I tried to sync with the second, ad infinitum...

Hey guys I am an enthusiast about Android and recently I purchased a HD2 which is great as a phone (hardware specs) but it lacks of a good software. So on my quest to make this phone the best I stumble upon this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732380
and which I thought it was the greatest because it tells you how to do everything for u to run Android in your Phone. I did every single step in it I installed ChuckyGTX Rom in it, but when I run HTC Sebse Desire Build, it boots up great and it works, after about five minutes in it freezes up and stop responding.
I really don't know if I installed the right HSPL, Radio, ROM and Android, for dat matter, in my phone. So I would love if someone here can help me. Thanks before hand. I really don't know if I installed it right or not? which one is supposed to go first? The phone is working fine with Chucky Rom, except that it does not display my location weather. Also I do not have a sim card in it yet!
This are the things I installed in my phone:
HSPL3
Radio 2.12.50_2
ROM: Chucky ROM GTX (but I dont know which one, when it boots up it says GTX 2.5, I did not download it from here)
Android: HTC Sense Desire Build
This are the specs for my phone.

First thing I would try is to delete the android build from your SD card completely, re download it and start again to see if the problem is still there.
If it still happens then try another build and see how that runs.
Finding a build that works well for you can be a lot of trial and error.
You could always try using a newer kernel for the build your having problems with, search the android sections for info on that.
Im not sure if having a sim card will affect how it runs or not but I dont think so.
Hope that helps......

After every time Android froze I did uninstall it and reformat the SD card. Also I try about 4 different builds but the only one dat it goes to the system is HTC Desire Sense Build (Which I love by the way) the rest of them get stock on android logo or they never finished booting up completely.
And what other kernel you think I can use on my phone?

Hmmm
Wouldnt worry about a kernel for the moment.
Only thing I can suggest for now is trying a different WM Rom........
Do u mean like a new OS for da phone right? Where can I get one dat u think it will work for this phone? Or I was thinking to put the phone back like it was and start all over again from scratch. But Im not even sure how to put it back to default.
Am I right in thinking that you have a "tmous" HD2? (green and red hardware keys?).....
If so you need to read through this thread for info on flashing a new rom..
Then choose a rom from here.....
or here.........
make sure its compatible with your tmous hd2..... most of them are.
You could also flash a new radio if you want. Make sure you only flash radios with a .50. in the name......
NEVER EVER go anywhere a radio with .51. in the name, these are for the other type of hd2 and will kill your phone.
Might also be worth posting your problem in the hd2 android section......

If u mean green and red keys to Open and Hangup buttons then yes, dat is the phone I have. Also the thread u r telling me to read is da one I used to flash my 1024Leo
ok well i would start over again from scratch.......
new rom, radio, format sd card, new build etc then see what happens......
Great news conantroutman I did what u tell me to do and I got the HTC Sense Desire Build running. Here is what I did:
Change the ROM back to Chucky GTX
Change Radio 2.12.50.2 to 2.08.50.05
But there are some issues that are I guess aggravating me the first one is that it shows all the weather for all the areas except mine and the battery drains while the phone is plugged to the computer. But besides that it did not freeze and it runs pretty smooth. Is there anything u can recommend me to do in this case. Heheheheh!!! I really want it to run as my main cellphone system.
I didnt use the desire build for very long so I'm not sure of what settings are available.........
I would look for something along the lines of "Allow charging whilst connected via usb" or something like that, tucked away somewhere in the settings menu..........
The weather issue...........
Depends what your using to get your weather info....
Sense?
Weatherbug?
Other?
Not every location is listed so it might default to the nearest listed location to where you are....... try using another gps related app and get a fix to make sure it knows where you are and see if that helps........
Theres a good chance someone else using this build will have asked this in the thread for the build so might be worth trying there........
Glad to hear you got it up and running

So I am thinking about isntalling the gingervitis 1.0 rom, I am currently on 1.12.605.6 radio and stock os w/root, I was wondering what radio i need to be on for this rom( he does have a link for a radio but dont know if it is ok to upgrade from the verison i am on) and after i do flash this radio and rom, and say i dont like the rom, if i restore back to stock os w/root am i able to keep the radio i upgraded to or am i going to have to downgrade to a different one, sorry about posting this in general i tried in the actual thread and got no answers.
You should be fine upgrading as long as you follow his steps.
As far as going back, I don't think that radio works on froyo roms. That's why when you flash the radio first and boot your phone back up, you don't have service. I could be wrong, but that's what I've gathered from everything.
I have GB right now and the only problem I've had so far is my text messages are out of order. Other than that, everything works great. I do know a lot of people are having trouble placing phone calls, and having random reboots though. It seems pretty hit or miss, but the developers are working hard trying to get everything as stable as possible.
Seems like every day since the leak a new version comes out with more bug fixes and different sense 3.0 additions. If you don't like the downfalls you see today, wait until tomorrow and see if they've fixed it yet.
I've been very impressed with the amount of bugs have been fixed so far and how fast they've fixed them.
I was having Force Close issue on beta 6 but beta 5 rocked
k i think i am going to do it, do you know if its easy enough to just flash the old radio back on it or am i going to run into problems if i decide to restore back, also when he comes out with updates i should just be able to flash the newest beta on top the other or should i do a wipe and then install again.
I'm having serious charging problems with this rom and the test 4 kernel. Talking like, 3% charged in 45 minutes off the wall.
I'm using the beta 6 Rom with the kernel that came with it and no problems so far not even reboots, have tried the newest kernel by imoysen?

Before you reply - let me lay a story for ya!
I bought a bran new TBolt off of my friend. I was using a fascinate up to that point and never had any issues. I loved my fassy - it was fast, reliable, and everything worked well.
Now onto the TBolt - I got the SOFF, rooted, got recovery, and got a few Roms. It is still working fine. What's the issue?
Well, I posted this on this forum and other forums more than once, but I can never seem to get an answer. After a few ROMS - Infected, Vicious, ThunderShed - I get a splash screen, or if it does boot it freezes as soon as it accesses the radio components. I have CM7.1 on it right now, ran liquid, vicious miui and other roms. Most roms do work in fact without any problems - but the few that I heard are amazing - do not.
What I have done:
Made sure my recovery is upgraded: I have tried latest CWM, EXT, CWM Touch, and the other one that was popular - all updated and did not work.
Always make sure to wipe: I always format all partitions. I have even used the Superwipe script as well, but to no avail.
I have installed a stock rom, wiped and then installed: Someone said that would work - it did not.
Double, no - triple checked my roms': Checked the MD5 sum of all ROMS and Recoveries.
Different Radios: My phone came with newest radios, and I downgraded, upgraded, and nothing.
Now, I do not mean to sound picky - but I am not happy with the TBolt at all. It works at half the quality that I had from my fassy. Wifi errors out sometime, Tether errors out sometime, it lags some of the time, and most of all - no ICS. Liquid worked well, but the touchscreen wouldn't respond during some games - not that I use it for gaming much anymore - but the idea remains.
It sounds like you are trying all of the right things, so unfortunately I don't really have anything helpful to offer. Just curious though, If you were happier with the fascinate, why stop using it? Did it break?
As far as your issues, I have found CM 7 based ROMs (or any roms not based off of sense builds) to be less reliable and have more "glitches" than sense roms. That certainly could explain some of your gripes with the TB. Have you been able to install any Sense roms other than stock?
I have long since settled on Chingy's gingeritis rom as the most reliable and feature filled, but obviously that opinion differs depending on who you talk to.
To answer your question first: I started using the TBolt because it was 4G and that was important for me at the time (I was a student and had no reliable internet). Things have changed now and I am most likely going to change back sooner than later.
I haven't tried many Sense roms. Which would be the most reliable and recommended?
I know you said you tried downgrading your radios and that your phone came with the newest ones flashed but if you haven't already done so, check this out.

One thing with switching to a AOSP rom from a sense based rom is that you have to use very specific radios. this page will help you find the exact radios you need to use for the rom you are running.
I am running Thundershed 1.6 with these:

I am running the kernel in "normal" mode.
No issues that I know of but I am still a noob with a post count of 2...
Alright. Thx for the help guys - for the time being I am back to the fascinate, but I will try your suggestions.
One thing I am also trying is the using the "non-semsung" micro sd card in the TBOLT.
I will report back after this weekend with the results.
Hello,
I have a huge Problem:
Last weekend i installed HSPL on my European HTC Titan and flashed Dynamics V2.0.
This Rom was extremely buggy and wasn't booting again after I turned it of once.
Then I tried the second Rom, Eburon V2.1, which had the same Problems.
After that I installed the European Stock 7.8, which worked better but also stopped working after I installed the official Facebook App.
The next one I used was EB Edition V2.6, worked for a whole day but stopped working after I installed an App from the market. Now the phone isn't booting any more.
I have always installed the right radio, which was in the download file.
My question is:
Are those custom roms so buggy or am I the only person who cannot install any Rom?
How can I fix these problems?
When there is no solution to that I have to sell my HTC Titan and buy an Android Phone again, where custom roms are really working...

The answer to your question is; no! I'm currently running Eburon 2.1 and it's running as good as Eburon 2.0 which I've posted runs as smooth as a baby's butt! I'm not familiar with the European Stock 7.8 and I'm curious as to whether it's a custom ROM and designed to run with HSPL. Microsoft's Facebook app has always been buggy; however, within the People Hub it runs there too and all you have to go is go up under your settings and accounts and put your username and password there and you're good to go. As for your phone not booting, I have no idea.
What you need to do is literally start over; if...if...you do not have HSPL; double check this up under your bootloader. Attempting to install all these different ROMs begs the question if you re-locked your phone. Start from knowing for a fact your device is HSPL and has the words "CottulaH" on the bootloader screen. If it does, proceed to flashing your ROM but make sure you have at least a 50% battery charge and the installation process isn't disrupted for any reason. It's a toss up here as to which ROM is the best but you can't go wrong with either the Dynamic 2.0 or Eburon 2.x series.

Sounds to me like you are getting bad flashes? Most WP7 custom roms are very stable and perform well 99% of the time. Been using the Dynamics rom on one of my Titans for 2 months or so with no problems whatsoever. The official FB app is buggy...I don't even both installing it.
Now, I'm not here to bash Android, but I dabbled into cooking some Android roms a few years ago. IMHO custom roms on WP are about 10x's more stable than any Android rom I've come across.
Ok, thanks for your replies, but just don't use the official Facebook app isn't a solution.
Could it be a solution to wait ca. one hour after installing a rom and let the phone configure everthing (maybe the phone needs that time)?
Because I set up all my accounts and install the apps I need directly after the rom has booted. Maybe it works if I wait before doing that.

Definitely - not. This is not a reason of your issue. I would offer to repeat the procedure of HSPL-ing. All customs work at least not worse than the stock roms.
I guess you may have the hardware issue. To be 100% sure - try to flash older stock - like 2.05 (with 16 radio). If it also does not work for you - than - pass your phone to the workshop - it's hardware.

I had that idea after flashing Deepshining V3: The readme says that you have to activate "Trust all applications" in Root Manager, I wanted to do that, but I got an error message "No root access. Be sure you have fully unlocked your rom".
This was very weird, because that's the app needed to permit other Apps root access.
Also, none of the 3 soft buttons worked.
I waited a couple of minutes and restarted the phone several times, and suddenly the soft buttons worked and Root manager had root access.

Looks like the phone is swapping or caching something for ages. Maybe it's a Storage card malfunctioning. So hopefully the fixing will be just card replacement.
Mhh, ok, so what should I tell HTC? I can't say that I wanted to install custom roms, but none of them is working, so the phone needs a card replacement xD.
I tried installing Dynamics V2.0 again, and it works until I try to install WhatsApp, then it ends up in bootloops.
But the original stock 7.5 Mango worked without any problems. If the storage card is damaged, the original rom would also not work.

Did you install stock Mango AFTER you had tried all possible customs and it worked w/o issues?

No, before flashing a custom Rom everything worked, and since I tried to install custom roms I have nothing but Problems...

So - once again - try to flash stock. If it works - the problem is installing HSPL. If it does not work properly - just send the phone to workshop. Maybe it's just bad coincidence - the card died when you had installed HSPL....

Maybe it works now.
I did the whole HSPL Flash Thing again and now I was able to install WhatsApp on Dynamics V2.0.
It's only a small Progress, but it is one.
I will try the Rom tommorrow and if it crashes again, I go back to Stock 7.5.
similar problem
my Problem is, that after installing the Dynamics Rom, the device is just showing the white bootscreen with the htc-logo on it.
I am still able to enter bootloader mode, but I don't see any advantage in it.
The device was Vodafone-branded.
I hope someone can help me.
Did you follow the instructions at this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912 before flashing the Dynamics Rom?? If you didn't debrand and unlock with HSPL you get stuck or have the wrong radio rom installed.

I did. But I think I know what I was doing wrong. The step between finishing HSPL installation and Dynamics setup...should have I installed the phone first and done a Zune synchro? Cause I didn't -.-
Just install the radio rom that comes with the Dynamics rom. That should do it. You don't need a Zune synchro afterwards unless you want to copy pictures, music, videos back to your HTC.
