Thank you for your Donation, your Nick has been add to the running list on Post #4.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] marz_xx:
I use MiniTool Partition Wizard 6 (home edition - it's free) to make a partition using a card reader. The benefit is that you don't have to format your whole sd card, and the program is pretty clear.

Just re-size the original partition, and create a EXT2 partition in the free space (I use 1 gig, but 512 mb will do as well, I think). Make sure you make it a primary partition. pop back into phone, and presto, you'll see it'll boot nicely. Rom needs it for cache etc, but also additional space for apps.

good luck

Fixed issue with the app drawer screen and personalize screen not expanding all the way to the top with the advanced power menu mod !

This new v2 is now good enough for chefs to use and no reason wy they shouldnt

This is getting the rom as close to the original RUU rom with a safer shutdown there is only a advantage and no disadvantages

Updated fixed stock Advanced power menu for EU v2.0

Updated fixed stock Advanced power menu for Tmobile v2.0

http://www.multiupload.com/5UWHO47NHF

If you like it and appreciate what i have done hit the thanks button!

If you dont and dont see the advantages of your phone being shutdown properly then dont download it!

Still working on the return issue but maybe something that will never get fixed i have been working on it eveyday for the past 2 weeks to get these issues fixed and have got it this far without any help from Dev's as they can not work it out how i have done these mod's or how to solve the issues and since i am the only one trying to fix it other than Carls & Kameirus support i dont have much to go buy!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Nerothank:
So this fix/mod should repair the stock power menu and make it available, right?

If so, do I have to reflash the whole ROM and then immediately after flashing do a recovery of this fix/mod?

Thanks in advance

No just flash it over the rom read the post down the bottom in red first just for reference

format sdcard

I've been out of the loop for the past 7 months and a lot has changed in NAND. I got this ROM loaded and running, but I keep getting a notification to format my SDCARD. When I do get this message "external media in unknown state". I tried another sdcard and the same thing happens. My card works fine in my other phone. Any insight or answers are greatly appreciated.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
Format that card, also you havent stated which rom you are using EU or US?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] spitfire72:
Sorry, I'm using US. I did format the card and also went through all of the formatting you suggested (cache, etc.) prior to flashing the ROM. I also tried another 4GB SDCARD and got the same problem.

On the (+) side, I've used this ROM all day and I am impressed with how smooth it runs. Great Job!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
Thanks for the rom compliment,

As for the issue of the sdcard I honestly cant tell you why this occurs, unfortunately without being able to duplicate the issue its very hard to determine. But I have tried my rom with 3 different cards with no issues of this kind.

I hate to pass blame, but in this case, it has to be something else since no one else seems to have this issue, even though its a suck ass answer, I dont know why its happening.

EDIT: Thought crossed my mind. Try formatting with sdcard with SDFormatter V2.0 (Google it, its a free app, think its panasonic or something), and format it that way, I just re-read your post saying it works in you other phone, that could be the reason why, sometimes some phones change the file system and makes it unreadable in another phone. I have run across this in the past. But make sure you do a full format, not a quick one. a quick format only changes the second byte in sector 0 to an "@" sign which indicates in formatted when its not.

V1.5 Release Date Delayed to: July 26th.

FAQ

Q: Are you planning to update this rom?

A: As of 1.5's release No. Due to the fact that a> All bugs should be squashed, b> There isnt anything new to add, c> and the biggest reason; Both my HD2's are biting the dust and can no longer continue flashing roms.

Only Fix will be when the graphic glitches are fixed, other then that 1.5 is Final, unless anyone knows how to fix bad blocks on the HD2, I can no longer update this rom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] darkwolfelite:
Hey AngelDeath. Whats the bad blocks you speak off? I only ask cause mine is getting old and i've been flashing alot lately. Just trying to how long I have before mine craps out:D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
The internal memory of the phone is starting to have unwriteable blocks, the two best ways you can see if you have any is:

1)After flashing a rom, (as in post #3 I believe) do not reboot, go to advanced, then error report, this will copy the log to your sdcard, then mount the sdcard and then go and look for a folder called clockworkmod, in there you will see a recovery.log. Open it with wordpad or notepad++ if anywhere you see bad block, know that you have errors (Best analogy, the same as bad sectors on a Hard Drive that can no longer be written to).

2) Download mtty 1.4.2 follow the direction to run it, then in the cmd> type "info 8" this will list your internal memory (it will not erase it) and will show you if you have any bad blocks.

The problem here is, The location of the bad blocks, I didnt know this until obviously it happened to me, and now I know depending on where the bad blocks are, can wreak havoc on your install. Based on my locations (I have 5 bad blocks) it prevent me from using htc sync to sync my contacts from outlook, it prevents me from installing apps from market, either by downloading it to the phone, or going to the website and installing it from the computer OTA. Random reboots. And the list I believe will continue to grow.

I do have some ideas as ways around it, but I will not try them out until I get 1.5 released, just in the event that if the phone goes further into the abyss I want to make sure I get the rom out.

After I know for sure, I will be making a "Awareness Post" about my encounters, which I think will help narrow down some of the issues people are having that i have noticed. Unless someone can find how to fix these bad blocks or even at all possible, I think we are running into a situation with our phones. There are a couple of solutions possible, but being that the HD2 is really starting to show its age, and that there is less and less Devs working on the HD2, it migh never be worked out or fixed.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rick_1995:
I too had around 10+ bad blocks on my nand after flashing gazillion android roms and debugging clk, i had it fixed by flashing an official WM6.5 rom through gold card, LEOIMG.nbh method. And if that doesn't fix your problem, you can increase the size of crucial partitions so that bad sectors are skipped and do not cause any space limitations. ie 8M boot, extra 2~5M on system, 1~2M on cache. Although each sector is around 512K on our leo NAND, its just to be on the safe side.

In the end it's your choice to continue deving or to call it quit.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
Well I tasked 29 the phone and then took a official rom, extracted it, then took the nbh file renamed it to leoimg.nbh put it on the root of my sdcard, then held down the vol down button entered the bootloader and it picked up the image file and pressed volume up to flash the rom, which removed the hspl, and put back the 3.14 rom, checked the blocks and they were still bad. reflashed magdlr and back to android and if you look at my cwr partition you will see it has been expanded. checked with mtty and with the recovery log after the rom was flashed in clockworkmod, same bad blocks..

If this is the gold card your talking about based on my detail, I already tried it. If my outline is not the gold card method, then please enlighten me, I dont want to stop deving, but without a functional phone its not an option.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rick_1995:
What i had done included changing my sdcard into a goldcard (Check the WM6.5 section) and then following the above proceedure, worked for me, so shared it.

I'll look into it, I know where they are, and I know exactly what its causing as I stated above before, and now it seems that installs of apk's from the sdcard will not work either, so only way to get apps to install is by pushing them. But hope they found a way to fix the blocks.

Reboot when installing from market

Did a quick search and didn't see it, but I'm tired so if it's there I'm sorry.

Flashed the rom, went fine, but now when I try and download anything from the market is soft resets back to the android loading screen. Not sure what to try, tried reflashing , tried with task29/mag/cwr listed in thread reflash and still no luck.

Saw the last couple pages about bad blocks, though I'm really having my doubts that my luck is such that I was downloading fine this morning, flashed this rom, then all downloads cause reboot. Going to try the methods posted to look for them as well as another rom and report back :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
I know people have been having trouble with this, when they would install something it would go back to the htc screen, this is from limited memory which is my suspicision. Now if the problem is that you are attempting to download something and its doing it during download or as soon as it has downloaded, then my suspicision is possible bad blocks. I cant be 100% of the last statement, but its happening to me (second scenario) and it never did before, and I noticed I had bad blocks.

a page or two before, I wrote two ways you can check to see if you have them.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] candytripn:
well, tried a different apk (apk installer) and am getting the insufficient storage message, though internal shows 335mb free, hopefully it's some error and nothing serious, still 4 months away from my next upgrade ;p

**edit**

Did the first method via recovery log. The only mention of bad block is "minzip: Extracted file "/system/bin/badblocks"", which I'm guessing isn't the same thing. Started over again, as with most errors, I'm hoping mine was the id10t kind. thanks for the quick response btw :D

****second edit****

Ran the whole ting over from task29 twice, same thing. When I try to download some apks, right when it says installing, the phone hangs then soft resets to the "android" loading screen. Other ones cause the insufficient storage message, though storage still shows 335mb free. Was that line I l posted from my recovery log what you mentioned in your previous post? I haven't seen much of this rom yet, but seeing it move between screens shows me it's much smoother than others I tried... really need to figure this out ;p.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
Here is your best option as I stated before.

Download mtty 1.42, in the active sync go to connection settings then uncheck allow usb connections, then plug the phone in, run mtty, it will as you type of connection, pull the menu down, and choose usb click ok. In the white box hit enter once, you will get a CMD> prompt, type "info 8" without the quotes, and you will be displayed the result of your phone without any changes made. Here is mine.

CE CheckSum Length(without sector info) = 0xF400000

As for the two who linked me to flash back to stock using a "Goldcard" this is the result the bad blocks are still there. This is severely going to get worse. Until there is a way around this, everyone will start showing unknown symptoms of roms behavior that has nothing to do with the rom itself.

I am still open to ideas, but I think the more flashing the less likely this HD2 will survive much longer as a stable phone.

candytripn, no that system/bin.bad blocks is nothing, it would clearly show in the log, but do what I said above and see what result you get.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
As a temporary solution, I have found a workaround to continue working with the HD2, its not one that I hoped for, but nevertheless the phone is back to being operational, and the issues I once had are not in the way anymore.

I will explain more in detail later on, as for now, back to 1.5 and finishing it up.

bad blocks

Hey angel I found this thought it might help.

1. How to check and repair bad block

a). Please make sure that you are SuperCID and you understand the importance of hard spl as this maybe a dangerious operation for you.

b). Downloan Mtty.exe file in the attachment below and save it to your computer.

c). Open connection setting of your activesync or WMDC on your PC and disable "Allow USB connection".

d). Put your divice into Bootloader mode and connect to your PC via USB

e). Run Mtty.exe from your PC

f). Selec "USB" in port box and then click OK

g). Press Enter once or twice to let the screen dispay "USB>" or "CMD>"

h). Type "info 8" to check if your device has bad blocks. And if there are any,

i). Type "task 2a" to fix the bad blocks.

That's what I had done and solved...

Here is the original thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=377389

I still cannot get mtty to work, wanting to hear you say it fixed your bad blocks as for I have them myself any way cheers

Edit. I found a program that looks like it will make a goldcard.img its called Ultimate Multi Tool

just Google for it that's how i found it.

Also check your pm i sent you another link.

So far I have tried the 3 methods, even the one you pm-ed me, mtty shows me the bad blocks when doing the info 8, but the task 2a doesnt fix it, neither does the goldcard method.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] AngelDeath:
I decided since I havent heard from Dansta through PM, and him being a friend, to give him a chance to let me know, so I am delaying it to the 27th. The Rom is done. Its just a matter of what he says thats holding me back.

Sense roms are usually slower then cm7 builds. Sense roms are much larger and use up more ram which is why they run a slower. Comparing a CM7 to a sense rom is like comparing apples and oranges, cant be done.
