[Q] Slide to Answer problem, anyone else? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The Intro: Hello everyone, my phone has a bit of a problem, I bought it about 1 month ago, and it didn't have this problem, so I hope your community can help me and other who have or will have this issue.
The problem: When someone calls my phone, I slide to answer the call, but when I reach the left margin, the bar turns from green to red/ignore and rejects the call, Also sometimes people call me and they cant reach me for some reason the operator sais my phone is off or out of coverage area. (Could be the network, it is pretty busy this time of year) so it's not yet confirmed as a problem.
The story: Skip this if you get bored
I purchased my HD2 from a close friend, unlocked, unbranded, it had HSPL 1.42 on it, and an old version of KWBR's rom. I installed hspl 2.08, and flashed the recent 3.14 version, and updated the radio as well. All was good, but since I flashed the final version I have been experiencing the problem, once every 5 or 6 calls it rejects a call.
What I tried: Hard reset, with no software instaled, Flashed another radio using task29, did flash a different rom also 3.14 based. Nothing worked
Solution:
1. Just use the hard answer button, not exactly comfortable, but hope its temporary
2. Being used to answering with slide, just calling everyone back and apologize
P.S.
I used the search function to find an answer, but no luck, If there is a solution please give me the link to it, and please be patient with me
If I made mistakes in the text, sorry, hope you can understand what I want to say. My english is not the that good.

so you didn't find any of the LOADS of threads that say "you cannot run 3.14 rom with hspl or any spl lower than 3.03.0000"
either stop using 3.14 based roms or upgrade your spl to 3.03.0000

Well, I understand your frustration, but here is an answer for you:
Tryed a 2.13.531.1 based rom, with hspl 2.08. No change
Flashed spl 3.03.0000 with both based roms 2.13.531.1 and 3.14, still no luck.
I did read the LOADS of threads, but I also tried it as I read that it is posible, and it ran fine, still does...
Any other ideias?

I dont want to change the slide to answerscreen, just want it to work. Thanks for your sugestion.

Like samsamuel mentioned it before;
Don't use HSPL and Stock ROM 3.14 together.
Proposal; remove HSPL and flash stock ROM 3.14 again.

Done, stock spl, stock rom, no change.
BUT, I investigated the problem a bit more and this is what I discovered:
When I press the barr to slide to the left, I unintentionally press the right side of the screen, releasing the bar to answer, the right side of the screen is still pressed
Can anyone confirm that my habit is the problem?

Unable to flash my Hermes with the most recent 1.51 radio module

Hi Experts,
I got some problem to upgrade my Hermes to the most recent 1.51 radio module.
Previously, it's shipped with rom 1.2. I flashed hard-spl V7 later, and managed to upgrade the radio to 1.41 last week. Today, I tried to upgrade it to 1.51, however, one strange thing was the flash progress bar went very slow, fortunately, it completed at last. However, when the phone rebooted, I found the radio remains at 1.41~~~~~
What's the problem with that? Any more information needed?
Thanks in advance.
that proplem with me need help plz
Can anybody help us out?
Your input would be much appreciated.
Guys,
I guess the reason why no one has responded is because there are a number of options you can take to solve this problem. Most (I think) are in the wiki, hence no response.
Take some time out to do a search on Radio Upgrade problems and see what comes up.
WB
Dear WB,
Thanks for your reply. Actually, I have already read the Wiki pages. Maybe I missed some of them. However, I cannot find a solution to it.
Thanks,
Jiayi
@Jiayiw
i recommend you to read and read and read and then upgrade roms and radios that some other users used and had no problems with them , coz your device can be simply bricked like mine if you install a bad or corrupted rom into it .
good luck

It just occurred to me that, after I flashed the radio to the 1.41, it upgrades my HTC boot to 0182....
So, there is no way to flash the radio with the HTC boot version 0182?
Also, the Radio 1.41 rom is downloaded from the wiki......
Have you tried flashing another radio version like 1.47, to see if that works? You tried downloading 1.51 froma differennt source eg here>>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323957?
WB
Thanks WB,
The problem is related to the HTC boot in my Hermes, it's 0182 already, I am not sure why it got upgraded after my flashing last time.
Anyway, I am seeking the method to flash the radio with HTC boot at 0182.

Stuck on Telus Boot screen

Well I just attempted to upgrade my Rom.. First I loaded titan_SPL_2.40-olipro on.. It seemed to all go fine.. I can boot into the Bootloader on the phone fine and it shows that version. Then I loaded dcd 3.1.2 (Official GPS/RevA) - Windows Mobile 6.1 OS 5.2.19213. It seemed to load fine to.. went to 100% and finished phone restarted and is now stuck on the Telus screen.. Tried reloading the ROM again same thing.. Tried a different rom same thing.. I also cant establish a active sinc to my PC anymore.. Any ideas? Thanks..
I was going to try loading a factory ROM again.. I just read that people advice not to load a factory RON on this verion of SPL, correct?
Well I decided to give it a shot and load a factory ROM on again and it worked its back to life.. So my question is what should I do now, I would still like to upgrade the ROM but don't wont this to happen again.. Do I try reloading the SPL?
You are missing a step.
steps are
1. Load bootloader
2. Load Sprint or alltel OEM rom with 3.xx radio.
3. Load custom rom. If possible one with extended rom, that will erase customizations from ext rom.
here are detailed instructions for telus
http://howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369027
here is another 6.1 cutom rom
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1372511
jim_l, as mentioned you are not using the appropriate radio for your chosen ROM.
The previous post is in error because you may not mix any 3.xx radio with the latest ROMs. Avoid using radio 3.27 as that was only paired with a briefly used leaked ROMs. The compatible radios are 3.35.10, 3.37.20, and what most now seem to recommend, 3.39.10.
There are no special instructions for Telus when flashing. The highlighted Wiki and radio stickied threads at the top of this forum have all of the troubleshooting and instructional information that you required.
A hint to others, rather than first posing questions and waiting for help, it's often quickest for you to first see what existing threads and solutions are present in a forum. There's a search function and some very self explanatory labelled threads stickied to the top that occasionally get overlooked.
Thanks, I will do some more reading.. I read until my eyes bleed and thought I had it figured out. Guess not... I have been browsing forums since forums existed and know my way around... dohhhh
Thanks again..
Well I did more reading and I got it going with dcds ROM thanks all...
Only question I have now, is it seems my phone cant geta data connection.. It just doesnt dial out for it..

Did you install one of DCD's appropriate carrier CAB?
Ya I did install it.. I just reinstalled it and all is well.. Thanks a million..
Did you also record and now check your EPST data? Is it all as it should be?
I did record all the EPST data, I couldnt get into EPST for a while.. I rebooted a couple times and now it lets me in.. seems to be all the same.. THanks..

Having problems booting., freeze..

Had flashed my HD2 to Artemis and after some minor problems i decided to flash back to stock room and flash to lates Artemis.
Did as i allways do: Took out Simcard / SD card and flashed stock room.
The flash went as allways and finished but when the phone restarted it got stuck in the first screen (White background with HTC logo on, right before the red writings stating Radio version etc appears, and cant get any further. Phone stays there for maybe 20 sec then reboots and same happends.
Have tried to flash the stock room via SD card not, but same happends.
Any ideas?
Stock room is: _HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_HTC_NOR_1.66.409.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship
Up we go..
Thnx
if it rebooting itself, then its likely a bent battery pin.
PLus, as soon as you flash a stock rom from sd, (even if the flash hangs at 0%) then it removes hspl, so be aware of that when you get it working and try to flash a cooked rom again.

Non of the pins are bent, all of them are 100% perfect. Have also tried 4 different batteries to eliminate a problem with the battery, without any luck.
If the pin had been bent i would asume that it would reboot immediately, but the phone shows the HTC logo and the white background for 20-30 sec, then reboots.

I'm aware of that, but cant even get the phone to boot right after i've flashed the stock rom, flashing went as normal without any sign of error, and rebooted with the red button after that.
Any other ideas guys?

Were you able to perform Task29? Am just thinking loud here, it may help. I had a similar problem on my wizard and it came out to be that damn battery pins. I know you have tried alternatives but just my two pennies here.
similar problem, same artemis rom HERE
you should both post in the artemis rom thread.

I have never been able to preform Task29 with the exe, i allways get an error before the program starts, but as i have flashed the stock room, and hard reset before flashing cooked room this should not be necessary (Flashing stock room also includes Task29 if i'm not wrong)

Could be, but i cant see any reason why Artemis should couse this. Note that this happend before i flashed the lates Artemis. Right after stock room was flashed. Used the same Stock room file as i have used before (have flashed close to 20 cooked rooms) so the file should not be damaged eather.
The other user you linked to got Artemis 23 up and running, and then the problems started after doing custom mods to it. This was not the case here.
had a similar issue also on the latest artemis, please post details, radio version, spl

[Q] SPL change

Hello,
I'm running Android(JDMS 1.6.2) on my HD2. I'm really happy about how it feels and works. There is 1 problem i really like to get fixed. My Internet is really slow.
I read something about a radio i need to change because it does't work that well with the one that's installed on my phone right now(Is this true?). I need get this radio on my hd2 using hspl2. Problem is that when i try to install hspl2 i get an error about having a wrong spl(3.something). How do i get the good SPL on my phone?
Thanks in advance
Yeah, the radio version can influence the internet connection.
Witch radio version do you have for the moment?
And about your problem about SPL/HSPL; with is your spl version from the moment?
How can i check what radio version i have?
I have spl 3.08 i think. Try to do this a week ago. Did't get it right so i gave up.

I guess you mean spl 3.03.0000 (the one who is integrated into stock ROM 3.14!)?
In case you have install/use the stock ROM 3.14 you have spl version 3.03, and radio 2.15.50.
Don't look for installing the HSPL; HSPL and spl 3.03 isn't compatible.
But to be honestly, radio 2.15.50 oz the latest one (I also use it without connection problems.)
If you would like to know (for sure) witch spl version you have you need to set your device into the bootlouder screen. Shutdown your device > Hold volume down button press > press power button. You will get a 4 color screen = Bootlouder]
But back on your connection problem; did you try a other Kernel version?
Or try a other Android build.
You're right. Just checked it in windows.
I feel really stupid everytime i ask you how to do it. But how do i change te kernel?
I tried several builds and this is the only one which has this problem. It's too bad because i really like this one. Do you know a nice build that runs smooth?

Changing the kernel? Just download it and replace it with the one you have on your SD
Hmm, I don't have much experience with Android; but my favorite is this one: >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859817
Take a look, try and if it isn't what you are looking for, take a other one.

[Q] Please Help a Dying HD2

Hello everyone, hopefully you can help me figure out what's wrong with my HD2.
.:BACKGROUND INFO:.
I bought a used TMoUS HD2 a couple months ago and it was working fine up until last month. At first, it would freeze and I would have to do a battery pull, but as time went on, it froze more and more often. One day, I think it froze around 20 times in a row. Eventually, I let the phone sit without the battery for a few minutes before I tried booting it again. When it did boot, I figured maybe there's something wrong with the software, so I did a hard reset. After the hard reset, the phone will boot into the desktop and then freeze (If I'm lucky) or sometimes it will just freeze on the T-Mobile "Stick Together" screen. I tried flashing a the stock ROM and it would always stop at 8%.
I've always used the stock ROM since I got the phone, not sure if the previous owner flashed it before, but it does have HSPL 2.08. The only thing I've done to the phone are the registry tweaks I got from these forums. Here's a list of applications I installed to my HD2:
Chainfire 3D Driver Update
Co0kie's Home Tab
appelflap HTCRamDisk
ATT WAP MEdiaNet and MMS Settings
Band Switch V2.8 Auto Disconnect Data
Battery Increment Display 1.66 ROMs
CleanRAM
ClearTemp v1.3.1
GoogleMaps
JayVee Disable Clock Flip
Long Press Send Key Alt Tab
RAMDisk Opera Cache
TCPMP v2 Video Audio Player
TX Opera Mobile 10 Flash Support
WM Long Life 0.66. 0302
Not sure if this is relevant or not, but the last thing I remember installing was Co0kie's Home Tab before the freezing started.
.:HD2 SPECS:.
OS Version: 5.2.21892 [21892.5.0.89]
Manila Version: 2.5.20121412.2
Rom Version: 2.13.531.1 [90963] WWE
Rom Date: 04.28.10
Radio Version: 2.10.50.26
Protocol Version: 15.39.50.07W
.:THINGS I'VE TRIED:.
Flashing a Custom ROM via USB will stop randomly at different percentages depending on which ROM I flash. I've tried a few different ones.
Flashing the stock ROM
(RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship) via USB always stop at 8%.
Flashing the stock ROM
(RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship) via SD card will give me an error (RADIO_V2 - RSA Fail). I've attached a picture of this error.
Since flashing the stock ROM via SD Card gives me an error (RADIO_V2 - RSA Fail), I decided to flash a new Radio (Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14), but it gives me the same error. (I've also attached a picture of this error) I haven't tried other ones because I'm not exactly sure which ones to try and I don't want to brick my phone...if it isn't already bricked yet.
Can anyone suggest some Radio that's safe for me to try flashing for my TMoUS HD2? I'm really out of ideas on what to do besides that, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
***EDIT 1*** (01.21.11) - Tried Task29, went all the way to 100% but the phone fails to reboot. Flashing a ROM after Task29 doesn't work Also added a picture of the bootloader screen.
***EDIT 2*** (01.21.11) - Added a list of radio and ROMs I've tried flashing in post #9.
You can flash any radio with .50. in the name.......
NEVER flash a .51. these will brick your phone.
However this doesnt sound like a radio problem. The only thing I can think to suggest is to read up on "Task 29" this will completely format your device memory and should allow you to reflash a new ROM.
Best of luck........
Thanks for your reply, Conantroutman! I just tried Task29 and it was stuck at 58% the first time, and the second time it completed all the way to 100% (With a success message from my PC) but my HD2's screen just goes black instead of rebooting. After a battery pull, I tried installing the stock ROM and the same thing still happens. It stops in the middle of updating and says there's a communication error.
Any thoughts?
Sorry, the only thing left to suggest is to try the whole process again on another PC. Also try uninstalling active sync / wmdc from your PC and trying again.
Chipped From The Bunker Via A Sandwedge
No need to be sorry I really do appreciate the help! Would upgrading/downgrading the HSPL do anything?
If it stops working using the pc then try using the sd card method.
Do a search for hd2 sd card flashing and you should find out how...
Might be more lucky without the pc in the mix, especially if there are communication errors involved...
Cheers...

I've actually done that as well. The flash also fails but at least it gives me an error (which I've posted a screenshot of in my first post). Not that I know what it means though Hopefully someone with more knowledge can help me decipher it.
Just a question, did you changed previously your radio? If yes to witch one?

I've been reading up on how to flash stuff since I got the phone last year, but I never tried to flash anything until the beginning of this week. I'm not sure if the previous owner did though.
These are the radio I've tried this morning:
-2.10.50.26
-2.11.50.20
-2.11.50.26
-2.12.50.02.2
-2.14.50.04
-2.15.50.14
I used the SD card method to flash all the radios above. Some of the radios failed before the progress bar finished, but some actually went all the way. The phone doesn't reboot itself after it finishes though, so I have to do a battery pull. It doesn't seem to make a difference since I still can't flash any ROMs after I flash the radio.
And these are the ROMs I've tried to flash:
-CR192 Desire HD v6.5.3.0.9 Beta
-RUU Leo 1 5 TMOUS 2.10.531.1 Radio Signed 15.34.50.07U 2.08.50.08 2 Ship
-RUU Leo 1.5 TMOUS 2.13.531.1 Radio 15.39.50.07U 2.10.50.26 Signed LEO Ship
-RUU Leo 1.5 TMOUS 3.14.531.1 Radio Signed 15.42.50.11U 2.15.50.14 2 Ship
After leaving the battery out of the phone for a day, I tried Task29 again and managed to complete it (all the way to 100% and a proper restart) without freezing. So then I tried flashing a stock rom, but that stopped at around 8%. When I go into bootloader now, it seems that my HSPL has been removed and I'm reverted back to regular SPL.
If I decide to use Task29 again or flash a stock rom, do I need to install HSPL? Should I install HSPL first or just leave it alone and flash normally?

Yes, install the right HSPL first. Then, do task 29, then you install the correct radio, lastly you can install custom rom.
Good luck

Thanks Silverwind, I'm using HSPL3 to install HSPL 2.08, but it always fails. I can install regular SPL 2.08 perfectly fine though. I'll leave the battery out for a day and try again to see if it makes any difference.
