Well my phone is dead T_T
It's a shame, I wanted to use this phone till Februari 2013!!!! Aargh
When I try to start my phone, it shows a battery icon that it is charging my phone. Then it gets all lines in it and the charging animation freezes up. I get all weird lines across my screen and the screen turns green/pink.

Can't even start it

Can somebody please help me?  I have spent the last 7 hours looking through the forums and trying everything to get cyanogen beta 2 installed on internal storage on my o2 (15gb) and I can not seem to get it to work.  (I do not have an SD card and I can not afford one atm)
I had froyo beta working on my o2 a long time ago and I know how to do a manual install but I can't seem to get it to work.  Is there no official manual install package for the beta 2?  I have tried following the tutorials on the site but I still can't seem to get past that annoying 'checking for external SD' hang.  
Thank you

Follow this guide.

In step 3, If you don't have a SDcard inserted you may need to change mmc block from "mmcblk1p2" to "mmcblk0p2".

Unfortunately I already tried that one.  
The post says you should use froyobeta3 haret, etc.    However the beta3 link (and the links for all the other files on the project page) throws a 404 and I can not find it anywhere else online.
I tried using the froyobeta1 files (haret, zimage, startup.txt) to no avail.  It certainly gets me farther but I get some init loop at the end and then the phone just shuts off.

It's all right, instead of beta3 files you will use CMbeta2 files (ext4.tar.gz, haret.exe and zImage). Use this startup.txt:

Set kernel zImage
Set ramsize 180*1024*1024
Set mtype 1626
Set ramaddr 0x50000000
Set kernelcrc 1
Set CMDLINE "rootdelay=2 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 init=/init console=ttySAC2,115200 vmalloc=256M"
setbitp 0x7F008808 5 1
pfw 0x7f005800 4 0x3
pfw 0x7f005804 4 0x805
pfw 0x7f005808 4 0x7
pfw 0x7f00580c 4 0x0
pfw 0x7f005828 4 0x11
pfw 0x7f00582c 4 0x80
boot

That did it!  Thanks buddy!  I was working on that all day and now it finally works! Yay!

Now can you help me  get my Internal storage to map as my SDcard for the camera?  (I get 'Please insert an SD card before using the camera' message.) :/

Sorry for saying this, but it can be also an side effect of using ipaq's kernel modifications (if You used it). Of course it can be not connected, but...

I did use ipaq's kernel modification with the belonging modules. Only when using the standard music app on android I heard some stuttering but I think that, that was because of the phone clocking him too much down. On PowerAmp (also a music player) it did not stutter.

A year ago I got all over my screen weird green spots. That was when I was on Windows Mobile aswell. Yesterday, when I wanted to check the time, my screen was covered with green spots aswell which was also on Windows Mobile. I rebooted it, made a call and when I arrived home, my phone was shut down. Then it would not boot anymore so I decided to plug an charger to it. It first showed the normal charging animation but after 2 seconds it froze and began to get lines all over screen. Then it became green/pink and after around 3 minutes the screen was almost completely pink with all lines across the screen with here and there some green spots.

EDIT: The screen won't even show up now.
My laptop's GPU has big problems and it's like a magic box now. Sometimes it will boot (only Windows 8 works) and if I try to boot anything else, then it freezes and gets lines across the screen. Mabey my phone will magicly work in a month or so o_O But I won't rely on that anyway. For now my phone will be an Sony Ericsson W300 (.......no comment....)

I will try that now. Nope. Since yesterday morning, when my phone still turned on and stuff I could not charge! I just tried it with the USB cable and my computer said nothing.

I think that my phone is a 100% brick now. The hardware in it died I wanted to keep this phone for a very looooong time and use it as music player because it has SRS WoW HD

Sorry to hear your phone's dead. Sounds like a hardware failure to me. Now we have one less omnia2 user... :-(

Well... Hardware is controlled by the kernel and its settings. So it can be really sophisticated in terms of signals (can be inverted), voltages and voltagelevels, combinations of hardware pins up or down.
