Did you test to do a soft reset without your SIM card?
Reason way I mention this is because lot of peoples have communicate the same situation today, and after some test if thy remove the Sim problem seems to be solved.
This problem is in investigation by lot of custom rom builders, but at this moment we wait to see a true solution (But it seems NLD users don't have problems) but other aria users mention this problem to
PS; Take a look here and you will see you aren't the only one!

Which ROM for my needs..?

Hi, now before you all call me lazy for not reading up on it, I have spent a good hour but am still none the wiser.
I don't get alot of time to keep ontop of the info in this forum due to work.
I have been using schaps 4.3 for some time, and recently it has started to play up (not seeing SD card, very slow, takes ages to start ringing when someone calls me - sometimes I miss calls because of it).
I think its time to change as there are also a few features that I miss with this rom..
I need a rom that works well with exchange (push/pull) and dosn't forget my passwords every 5 minutes like the schaps rom.
I need the rom to have working video calling.
So who's/which Rom would be best for me?
Also I'm on Vodafone UK - can anyone recommend the best radio rom?
I very much appreciate anyones help.

To Anyone who has the BSOD

Dear friends,
After trying several roms + spl's I found out one thing for the HTC Touch Dual..
Do NOT disable the following setting:
"Start", "Settings", "Connections", "USB to PC", "Enable Advanced Network Functionality"
or
"Start", "Settings", "System", "USB to PC", "Enable Advanced Network Functionality"
If you disable it, and your device enters sleepmode or you put it off with the top button, the device won't turn on anymore. You have to soft-reset / pull out battery.
Keep it on and the problem is away.
Hope it helps for some of you
Greets,
Eelco
I think this is a Rom Problem ... some times i need this function! I use the main time Original Roms with some speed hacks.

It always is.... ;-)
Tested with
* Official T-Mobile NL WM6.0 ROM
* Official HTC NL WM6.0 ROM
* WM6.1 ROM ported from US Touch DUAL (found in the forum)
* Official SPL 1.16 / HARDSPL-MFG-1.15 / HARDSPL-1.16
You can hot enable/disable the function when needed, only do not forget to put it on again....

that's very curious.
i've had the advanced functionality off on Tom's ROMs and it has been fine.
nice discovery, though. i'll try it out.

Haven't tried tom's version 1 or 2 yet.
It looks like it is a problem in the basic Touch Dual Roms for sure.
Hard Resetted lots of times, as soon as I disable the setting the sleep-bug occurs

Nice to know. Now - I DID get the BSOD with the two Mary ROMs that I've tried. That's the reason I had to go to Tom's ROM. I just can't have BSOD all the time. Who has time to reset their phone a hundred times a day!

I've been annoyed by occasionally freezes since I got my Nike, one proposal was to play around with exactly this setting and in my case (o2-germany xda-star, all original rom) this setting did not matter - the freezing issue remained (disabling HSDPA lessens the freezes, though).
What I've never experienced up to now, is the mentioned bug that the device won't wake up at all, though sometimes it takes some seconds (sometimes it takes more than one power-button press).
So maybe I'm the lucky one here, but I cannot confirm this (using the nike since february).
Cheers,
jekk.

Maybe only some mainboards have the issue. I can reproduce on 3 different roms with my T-Mobile MDA Touch Plus.

[Q] Hd2 since daylight savings time problem.

My hd2 lately has been acting rather strange. Since daylight savings my phone has been skipping hours seemingly at random, If I change the time manually about half an hour later it will have changed the time by itself to a few hours in advance.
I've tried updating the time through the internet but i've had no luck so far.
I'm currently running chuckys GTX but that isn't the problem because yesterday I had the same problem with Energy rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
HD2 daylight saving time problem
I also have this problem since daylight saving.
The phone random changes time, now its 2 hours ahead of normal time.
I also tried everey setting I can find.
Please help me (us)!
I am also having this problem, I turned off internet time sync, but it is still happening, I'll post here if i find a fix!!
I am having same problem as well. Called helpdesk HTC. For them its new. They want to know which provider i use. (Vodafone NL) They want to know if the problem also happens with other providers?
I also installed a stock rom 3.14 and nothing else and still have the problem of random changing the time +1 hour.
wow that is weird... were do you guys live, I live in the US and were changing our time next weekend hopefully this doesnt happen to my phone too
hi.
i have the same problem.
this is rom or radio issue?
The same problem here. If i change time manually, leo will change it by itself in couple of hours. Even if time is changed manually, message will come with a bad time indicator. Automatic time synchronization doesnt help. :\
Stock ROM
This could be your solution (it was mine)
Dutty in his ROM thread posted a cab that would solve that problem. I haven't tried it since I don't have that problem.
YMMV.
see the thread inthe general section for a possible fix....
worked for me (reg edits).....
reply
I just preformed a hard reset. For me it was no problem, the phone was slow for weeks and only tomtom navigator is important to me.
So my problem is solved now thanks to the hard reset.
For the other people, good luck with this problem...I have Vodafone NL btw

Sorry..problem is back..HARD RESET DOES NOT WORK!
big problem with dst
I think this i s a big problem and maybe only patch can fix this.
I have tried to re-install windows (flash ROM) with the latrest original ROM from HTC
I have tried to get registry backup from another HD2 which doesn't have this problem. it doesn't work.
I have tried to to flash without having SIM card in it and doesn't apply any wireless connection. Windows doesn't know my location and time. Then i connect to GSM operator in Bulgaria and the clock turns one hour ahead then i turn on my Google location services and my phone turns 2 hours ahead.
I'm really pissed off and i think this will be a big trouble... even flashing ROM doen't help, then what...???
ofcourse you can stop all your connections and there will be no problem if you set the correct date, time and location, but this means that i'll never use wheather...
please help. maybe it is time to write to htc support i don't know...
btw i have also android on my hd2 and there is no problem with time.... i really have no ideia...
I also have the same problem my GSM provider is MTel BG
I'm with Globul
Time Problem
I've got the same problem.
@ "drei" Provider in Austria.
-Elegancia V2 and
-actual LEOpard ROM
Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14
all tips since now tested (REG-hack, all time sync options off, reset and more...) without success
Time changes +1h as its wants to. Also @ SMS or call.
the crazy thing is that i changed the Time Zone from "GMT+1 Prague, Budapest" to "GMT+1 Berlin, Rome" and after the first +1h count, time Zone is "GMT+1 Prague, Budapest" again..!!??
please help! im going crazy about this
In Bulgaria i have the same problem. It changes from +2 Minsk to +2 Sofia, Talin...
I think we must write to HTC support and then waiting for patch...
But the most strange thing i found is how this can happen when you falshed your HD2 with the latest ROM from HTC... This means that the configuration is not in Windows Mobile, maybe in something like BIOS or i don't know... Mayby we have bad servers in registry which gave us these troubles and we can;t find them. This trouble doen't appear with Android in same network with same hardware. Maybe Android has another servers for time synchronization...
Problem for me has been solved by duttys wintertimefix.cab
It's in his Rom thread under the cab repository link.
I had the same problem (Sweden Telia) but Dutty's fix seems to do it's work!
Impressive Dutty!!
To bad that ignorant HTC doesn't want to aknowledge problems with their phones, not the first.... An iphone4 seems more and more appealing
Thanks again Dutty!

[Q] Time update problem after Rom update

hey there guys,
i updated the rom of my HD2 with the latest version available on Htc site. the problem now is that time changes by itself and though i have checked "get time from the internet " it can`t update corectly
gmt+2 is set , i put the time corect and after some time it goes by itself one hour or 2 in advance, sometimes even more.....don`t know where the problem is.....
I connect it to the internet and though it sees my location good it can`t get and keep the right hour!
What could be the problem??
Thanks
Try search next time. There are several discussions about this. This works for me.
Go to Settings\ Menu\ All settings\ Personal\ Phone\ Gsm/umts Services\
Time Synchronisation\ Then press Get Settings, Unselect the box and press ok!
seems to be working for me.
I´m also having this problem.
A few ours after setting the correct time, it´s suddenly several ours of - often as much as 1.5 day of actually.
I have hardreseted but the problem is still there.
I have also tried the solution above without success.
Does anybody know whats going on?

[Q] HD2 Clock Keeps changing time.. Annoying...

Hello all.
I have a little, but very annoying problem on my HD2. Im on 3.14, 3.03, WWE flashed with SSPL (previously was blocked on a ****ty NLD (dutch) version rom)
All is working fine, ive installed many apps, and games.
However, it seems when i exit some games (tower defence is very buggy, or gameloft Ferrari game), i go back to the home screen and i notice the clock has changed time. But im not sure its the games that do that, i just dont know what makes it change.
Say its 9.15, it will be 11.15. If its 7.20, it will show 9.20.
It seems it always adds 2 hours on my time. How come? Data connection is always turned off (i dont wanna use it) and its not connected to internet, so it cannot check internet time. But why is it doing this suddenly? wasnt doing this a few days ago, and i havnt really installed new stuff in those pas few days.
Thanks in advance for all explanations
Afgter having looked into the problem, it appears it is because of GMT zones and IGO8 nav programme.. any one else had a similar problem with the software?
I think it syncs gps time (greenwich) and this is what creates the problem, or at least the software is inteferring with the phone... damn..
Nobody else has this problem? I thought it was from IGO8 programme, but now when i exit some games, it also changes the time by 1 hour. Why is this? The minutes are always correct, its just the hour that jumps 1 or 2 hours..
This is really frustrating.. Anyone has some help suggestions? (apart from buying a proper watch? )
Thx!
Assuming that you have the correct time zone, then the problem is that the phone is getting its timing from the phone network.
Settings -> Menu -> All Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> GSM\UMTS Services -> Time Synchronization -> Get Settings. Untick 'Automatic change time zone and clock'.
Thanks buddy for the clear answer. I didnt even know those setting were available via the "MENU" in the seetings
But i set all time zones correctly, why was it changing the thing? Im GMT+1, and everywhere in my phone it was put in as GMT+1, so why would it add another hour? Anyways, time will tell
Get a +thanks! Will report back to see if time doesnt get distorted again
This is a general problem in HD2 phones all over Europe and all over different ROMs
There are already a lot of threads about it (search "winter time change") and the only solution offered by HTC until now is to switch off time sync completely (in personal -phone settings and settings HTC time sync)
HTC already promised a solution to several members of XDA as posted 3-4 weeks ago but still has no solution to it.
