New UK HD2 O2 ROM Version:1.72.206.3 - HD2 General

Has anyone tried this rom I know its only been out a week or so but was just asking to find out if anyone had any problems with it before I put it on my phone.

Don't want to hijack your thread, but: will O2 ROM work on non O2 HD's?

God knows mate Just go on the HTC site if you want a update and have a look.

I've found the difference between 1.43 that i had before and the new 1.72 is massive. Its much much smoother i haven't had any probs so far

I have been trying to update ROM since I've had the HD2. Im with O2 and when on the HTC website where it asks me to input serial number, it says device not compatible for this update. Any idea how I can get round this? It seems I won't be able to upgrade my ROM at all.
Cheers

works fine. no issues, and worked correctly after putting in serial number

What radio version is in the new O2 ROM?

already a few pages thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=671197

Ok just installed it and well can't see what's new. A bit faster and that's it no fixes no nothing.What a let down.

can anybody with this ROM on their HD2 go to
People / all people/ Updates and events / Menu
Please let me know if you have any option there to sync FB with more than once contact at a time. My old (non 02) rom let me sync all my contacts in one tick box frenzy. Now it seems they want me to do each one seperately.

Advice on ROM upgrade for Vario

I was a bit angry today to find out that T-Mobile UK won't be releasing the Exchange Messaging Feature Pack and Bluetooth 2 update until June!!!
I know I can flash my Wizard with another ROM, but I want to know exactly which one to use that is the most newest and stable available. I don't like the T-Mobile customisation very much so I'd like to get rid of it. Also, how would I restore the MMS settings for example? I can easily input the operator setttings if necessary or will I need to use an actual program.
T-Mobile have also withdrawn the last update from their website citing that it had faults. I'm using the original ROM.
Thanks for your time.
i also got the Vario with the 2.08 Rom, works very stable on my device
Is that a T-Mobile ROM? I want to use one of the Qtek ones I think so I get push email. Can anyone advise? My device is unlocked using the tool and CID unlocked but I'm not sure what that is!

win mobile 6 on herald?

many roms of wm6 are around on known sites for specific models.is anything for our herald too?ive read that there is going to be an official update to wm6 of this model so there must be something around, even beta.
Mhhm, i couldnĀ“t find anything by now....
Lets wait a little, i think HTC is going to release something for us, soon
No one cooking any roms for the Herald tho?
doesn't look like it, i looked into porting one of the wizard roms but i didnt get very far! its definately possible to flash your own roms though. Also its worth remembering that HTC have promised us wm6 roms before June. I would much rather have that than a pre-release wm6 rom as the ones that are avaliable for the wizard, hermes etc.
As far as i know, everyone is content with AKU 3.2

well i have used crossbow on my wizard and the only difference i see are pretty icons and html mail. i dont really care about either, and more importantly my herald is very stable, cant remember the last time i had to soft reset never mind hard reset. so thats why i can wait until htc do their thang!
I hear one handed uses on WM6 is way better and that windows update feature looks very promissing.
O2 may be releasing an HTC Herald as O2 XDA Terra, with WM6 on it.

HTC Herald (aka Tmo Wing)
I bought a T-Mobile Wing 2 days ago (obviously it has WM6 on it) Where-as it is stable - I am rather disappointed that they removed the native VoIP support - thus I am waiting for someone to cook a ROM and put it back in so I can do the Hybrid Cell/VoIP thing that I was Previously doing on my Wizard (MDA) - I still have my Wizard which I use strictly for VoIP at home.

Latest WM5 ROM? do help

Hi All,
I just brought back my uni after a few months of semi-coma (i will release the details shortly) and now i would love to get my hands on the latest WM5 ROM from any carrier as i want to test my Uni and see if it's truly workable again. I want to use WM6 but too many and not sure which I want to use with issues.
Do pass the info and link if possible.
TQ and regards,
techx
Asking for a Rom (any rom) is a risky business, it usually depends on your needs/tastes, but you can have a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=376771
Hi Kecido,
I know it's not right to request but I should have asked, what is the latest original ROM uodate released by the carriers at the moment. Was it Imate or TMobile or Orange?
TQ and regards,
techx
btw, i don't like WM6 cos cooked ROM has too many issues.
Now the risky businees is mine, because I'm not such a geek to answer that question, anyway, for universal as far as I know (I can invite anyone else to tell me I'm wrong, please, tell me I'm wrong, er, mmm, just a "lapsus") it should be T-mobile (akku 3.3 I think), and source of the one I pointed for you (better ask to the modder).
Anyway, read and have fun.
Actually I find whe "what's the best WM6 rom for me?" posts annoying. WM5 roms are few and far between these days as most seem to want Wm6 even though it's not 100% functional. So yes in my opinion the question IS valid.
The latest official WM5 rom is the T-Mobile AKU 3.3 available from T-Mobile support websites. The link in the post above is a team effort Matrix Final rom created by myself and SDHC card support added by Bennyen.
There were some issues I didn't like in the original T-Mobile rom like the GPRS connection had to be forced to on and the various nag screens about unsigned apps and the god awful hideous colour schemes that T-Mobile insist on using etc. Hence I developed the rom that suited my needs - I use my phone for GPRS internet use quite heavily so I biased it towards that - and shared it just incase anyone else liked it. I am not saying install my rom. I am saying try out a range of them and find one that suits you as it's you that knows what your requirements are
Hope this helps.
Psi
Thanks for the info PsiDoc
Hi Psidoc,
Thank you for the reply and I will try, once i get my Uni back from the dead (again, yes i know)
Hope Uni comes back to realty soon.
TQ again.
Techx
Oh dear...
what did you do to it?

Me too (but O2 UK Xda Exec latest rom from O2)
As the original poster (I did not want to duplicate threads) but I am looking for the latest O2 UK ROM for the xda exec. The one on buzzdev.net does not work (i get no errors whatsoever but when it is finished and I do hard reset, press O then the screen goes multicolored and pixeled and nothing happenes).
Anyone has this ROM, it is not on O2 site anymore.
Thanks in advance.

oh i forgot to add the HTC website my bad! i hope they FIX the Music Player!
Well I hopped onto the HTC website for some info and was disappointed when it refused my S/N.
I have a UK Orange HTC Touch HD, popped my S/N into the box on the UK HTC website and it rejected it.
It doesnt look like a huge update so I am not so bothered but a bit miffed that its not working.

my UK purchased 'unlocked' HD serial number is being rejected as well, so I cheated http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501583
since when did the UK leave the EU ???
differences i've noticed in using the new rom for about an hour
1) GPS lock is quicker (and i was previously using the latest radio on a stock UK rom) haven't been on a trip yet to test the lag though
2) Phone feels a little bit quicker to respond (but this could just be me)
3) Activesync doesn't seem to start all the time
4) occasionally the first time you go to turn wifi on it doesn't actually turn on and you have to turn it off then back on again (but it does start correctly every time after that)
5) addition of Iplayer as a program and on the internet tab
I'm impressed so far, am very glad that i read these forums first and went back to the stock SPL before flashing though

Do you mean their's an actual iplayer program or is it just a shortcut that opens opera to the iplayer website?
This iPlayer application sounds interesting, hopefully it can be extracted soon.
what I've noticed:
- calendar bug has been fixed, now it starts in monthly view if set earlier.
- active sync doesn't run all times - saves memory -

HTC says: "This is a generic software update. Any additional software or settings provided by your mobile operator or company will be lost. If you require this customization, please contact your supplier first before upgrading."
It's part of the HTC OEM deal that locked operators have to repack the upgrades with their config and branding, and release it via their own website. I assume HTC is simply ignoring any serials that were sold with branded ROMs to avoid people accidentally killing their phones' operator-specific software.

Thanks for the information!!!
I tried to cheat and use a different S/N too, but after 1% downloaded, it said that the update was not for your PDA. What is going on? Anyone knows how to go around it? I tried the HTC Europe S/N.
Thanks

Love my HD2 after sensitivity .CAB

I have all the bugs reported here and hate HTC for making all of us beta tesers. But the worst problem was actually it being useless for typing. The sensitivity .CAB really improved my HD2 experience. Still I dont get capital letters after each dot though, but its not that big irritation. Its a wonder why HTC choose to have this terrible service.
Is there a chance you could post it here? The rapidshare link does only work for paying customers atm
I found the capitalization issue to be because of HTC messaging when using a LEO based ROM on my Diamond 2. Removing/disabling HTC messaging and going back to Windows Messaging also removed that problem..... perhaps you can try that...
Also, if you do revert back to WM messaging app, you should be able to use Advanced Config 3.3 to set the sms sent notifications back on again.
Google "Remove HTC messaging"... the first post from XDA Developers will lead you to how to do this....
A direct cab link to the sensitivity cab can be found in post 2 of the hints and tips thread. it's a non RapidShare link. Also if you upgrade yo the new 1.48 ROM, the sensitivity of the keyboard has already been applied.
Missed that one, thanks!!
im typing.on my hd2 keyboard now and i find personally that this is the most fustrating keyboard ever created. the oversensitivity is just retarded and i dont understanf
d how they could release it this way. sometimes i press one key and end up with 5 charactrrs on screen.it is impossibke to write one message without making a mistake.
that feels good now ive let off some steam
ive seen above that the new rom fixes the sensitivity but i was about to install it but it says that it might remove some programs. im in the united kingdom and got this phone with tmobile. if i do the rom upgrade will i lose any programs like office, wifi router etc or anything else?

It's truly terrible out of the box but try this tweak:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=604831
Select the HTC_touchscreen_fix_v3.2_with_reduced_sentitivity.cab, install and then do a soft reset. Much better.
After a week of use, I am typing faster on my Leo with FingerKeyboard (with this 'silly' and 'oversensitive' screen) and making less mistakes than I was on my Blackstone with EnergyROM WM6.5, FingerKeyboard and increased screen sensitivity.
I am a bit apprehensive of upgrading from 1.43 ROM if the screen sensitivity has been lowered in newer versions.

I wouldn't bother upgrading ROMs until a definitive release is made. There isn't much to choose between the ROMs at the moment, none of them address the major shortcomings of the handset. Just install a few tweaks and wait patiently for a decent ROM to arrive. My opinion of course, YMMV etc.
guys, try my test version. please give me feedback after some time of using it. not 1 min.
thank you

The 1.48 ROM has all the stuff that some network providers take out, so if you've currently got an O2 or T-mobile ROM it will add programs, not remove them.
