[Q] HD2: Application data lost after every reset - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need help on this issue regarding HD2.
The phone memory is so low that most of the time I have to clean the RAM (using clean RAM application), or as earlier advised by some expert on this HD forums that I should hard reset once every few months to clear my phone.
The issue is of application data like GPS locations, Footprints, etc which cant be backed up and each time u dont go to same place to collect all those information. How do we solve this problem ?

Use ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center wich ever one you have to use, to browse tbrough your HD2 and make backup copies of ygem on your computer. Remember where they were at as after the reset you just copy tgem back to that location and you are good to go.

How do i delete all my xda and start again from the sd card?

Hello,
How are you?
I have a xda, and unfortunately it has stopped working properly.
The problems i am facing are:
1/. I am unable to connect to it via activesync
2/. I am unable to enter the programs folder. I am however able to go into settings.
3/. When i start many/all of the programs, it says that there is not enough memory and that i should go to the memory manager and close a few. The problem is that there are no programs open!
4/. When i do a hard reset, the above problems to do go away!
Now, i last thing i have done is to install the slovoed dictionary program. The program installed fined and said that i need to reboot the device inorder to update the registry.
After reboot, all these problems started ;-(
Before i install this it worked fine!
Please help me. I really need to fix my xda.
I only have access to the sd card. I can not connect via active sync.
Can someone point me to where i can find a full back up, so that i can put it on my sd card and over write everything that is one my xda.
I am not sure exactly what i need but I am sure someone who has a greater expertise on this does.
I much appreciate all your help.
Regards,
Monza.
hard reset
Have to perform a hard reset. After a hard reset the OS of a Pocket PC is reloaded from ROM, and you start with a blank system, only the OS and some applications. Also all data will be gone.
The XDA's stylus exists of 2 parts. Twist and unscrew them. Use the grey plastic part of the stylus to hard reset the XDA.
It is all in the manual.

[Q] My HD2 main storage space getting low

I having this problem now. My HD2 main storage space getting low. Currently space only 40mb+- from 100mb(2 month ago).
I install few application in starage card only. (tough light, zuma, currency exchange rate, cinema show)
Everytime i browse internet, facebook or youtube. It will missing some main storage space.
I tried clear internet cache. Problem still maintain and now my HD2 running slow then before.
Have you run a cleaner application (like in SKTools), or manually cleansed the temporary files?
Since you started with 100Mb I conclude you have quite a lot of apps installed on your device, do any of them use tem files / log files / caching?
Tried looking in \Program Files\ folder?
Tried looking in \Temp\ ?
Tried looking in \Windows\Temp\ ?

I check manually check Temporary file already.. nothing inside. I delete some useless file but still the same. Each time i browse internet, it will deduct some space. So.. after few month. i hav to re-format again.
And app can clear the temporary file ?
:ClearTemp.
Clean Ram workson my HD2
I have installed CleanRAM and let it run occassionally. It reports enormous amounts of memory freed, but also in the HD2 memory page the amount of free memory increases.
You may want to try this, search from CleanRam in xda-developers.
SKTools (not freeware) is a contains a good utility to clean out tem files.
BTW: Are you seeing all files? Some temp files are hidden from normal file explorer, unless you set it to show hidden and system files.
Have you tried empttyng browser cache, cookies and history? (I know this is a "standard" answer, but overlooked sometimes)

Hmm.. show hidden file ardy. Never mind. this month i will reformat 1 more time and downlaod clear temporary file App.
With my HD2 I found I would continually run out of space. The culprit turned out to be the Opera Downloads directory (/windows/opera/profiles/download).
If the main space on the device is filling up and you're mainly mainly using your browser and you've already done stuff like moved your Album photos to the storage card then this could be the culprit.
I mention that because although Opera showed no files in the Downloads directory via Opera settings, when I actually inspected the directory there was about 80mb of files in there (I should also note that ClearTemp which I installed to fix the problem didn't identify this either).
Deleted the files and moved both the Opera cache and the Opera downloads to the storage card via the opera:config settings and I no longer have a problem with the main storage space filling up.
The other thing that did make a difference was specifying in the mail app that attachments should be stored on the storage card as well.

First I'd try to re-flash your ROM, should bring your device to original state.
Also, just in case freezes reappear, which could mean hardware problem, check "overheating" threads here on xda

[Q] HD2 running Android Won't delete Primary Gmail Account ARrgghh!!!!

I'd like to sell my HD2 running Android. However I cannot get it to reset the gmail account that I entered on it. These are things I've tried just so you know I'm not being lazy. Also please be gentle if this is not in the right area. Its a windows based hd2 running android so the correct section was a little confusing. Also I didn't flash it and of course the person that did isn't around compounding the issue. I need to maintain the flash but if I can't I can't .
1. data reset, several times
2. deleting the account ( I get an error saying, " This account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults blah blah blah").
3. Going in and clearing "google apps" which doesn't exist.
I appreciate any help.
save all apps and data with titanium backup, move apps to sd card. and do a factory reset. sounds like you have a bug. and it needs a reflash or something...
first, turn on wifi. then reboot your phone with wifi on. try to delete account now.
not sure about how it works on a hd2 running android but you can not the main gmail account when android is loaded.
I would recommend booting into recovery mode ( not sure how you would do that in a hd2 ) and doing a factory resst from there.
Only solution is to delete all android related programs off of sd card and reflash, thanks a million though guys.

i'm in the same situation. trying to sell mine also, and the gmail acct does not delete. how do you reflash
Same question. This hasn't been answered?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
factory rest ...and reset from recovery mode too if needed
I'm having a similiar problem. I have an HTC HD2 from Tmobile that now has Android 2.2 that I installed from DFT. I am now wanting to give this phone to my son and unable to remove my gmail acct.
Here is what I have done:
1. Manage apps>force stop & clear all data for google apps & reboot phone
2. Settings>Accounts>delete account, etc... (given error message and unable to delete)
3. SD & Phone storage>Factory data reset (phone reboots with all information still the same)
4. Soft (pressing yellow button on back of phone)
5. Hard reset (holding both volume buttons, etc...)
6. Install root explorer (unable to find accounts.db file)
7. Ask store associate for assistance (no help at all)
8. Search the internet far and wide for past 2 days to no avail
I'm not worried about any information/apps that may be deleted. I just want my email deleted as the primary.
Thank you!

[Q] Phone problem

Hi guys
I have strange problem with my phone - I'm unable to log in to YouTube, MyPhone and MarketPlace. Hard reset was not solving the issue, so I've downloaded new Vodafone UK rom from HTC site. My old one was 1.72, new one is 3.14. With YT it just goes back to log screen, Market and Myphone are giving me "unable to connect" or "download was unsuccessful" message. My internet connection works fine, I can browse sites and even watch movies via build in YT aplication. Tried multiple resets and still the same?
Right, bit more info what I've done. maybe that will throw some light on possible cause of my problem.
I've installed my mobiler and connected phone via Activesync
1st mistake - I did not read what it actually says on screen and unticked all positions on program list (thought this is the list of software that will be installed on my phone)
As you can imagine Activesync started removing all programs from my phone.
2nd mistake - trying to save my phone I quickly disconnected cable.
Some software had been already deleted, including sms patch
then I decided to restore my phone to earlier state using SPB backup
when fnished, I found out, than Sense wouldn't start
So, i decided to do hard reset
after this step I found out, that I was now unable to log into youtube, myphone and marketplace. i can access them from PC level, so I have not forgotten my passwords. Also I can browse internet fine, so it's not my network operator.
Question: is it possible, that SPB somehow damaged rom files?
Thinking that this may be the case I've decided to download fresh rom from HTC site. But after install issue remains

[Q] Factory reset / complete wibe with a broken screen !!

Hi everyone,
First I am no expert, but I've been going through all possible forums for a solution to my problem with no easy solution. I've cracked my screen on my Samsung SII i9100 (current firmware version: I9100JPKG2/I9100OJPKG1/I9100XXKF1/I9100JPKG2 DBT). I have replaced the Firmware once a year ago through Odin as I needed to access different languages no available on the original firmware. I think it is not rooted! If it is then it wasn't intentional . Now I am trying to send it for repair. The phone still connects to USB and Kies and through it I managed to delete all contacts, pictures and media. I accessed the internal memory and cleaned up all folders I previously placed on it, but didn't have the guts to go further through what looked like system or application folders.
Now I need to wipe all the account data, memos, and applications. Since I have no visibility, I tried a hardware factory reset like 5 times but it never worked, I've confirmed that. Read a couple of times about something called "adb" and how I maybe can wipe such data through it, or maybe use my computer monitor as a screen! Despite a whole day of reading and downloading and trying stuff, didn't manage to get it right.
If anybody has a solution for this problem, please don't spare on details, flying blind is difficult
Thanks in advance
