Mine just started doing this a few days ago.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
So I flashed to CM7 on a froyo radio and I'm still having connection issues. How hard is it to get a replacement sim card? I think that might be the culprit honestly.
[Thunderbolt General] dpham00:
just call Verizon or go to a store.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
Should I take cm7 off or just don't show them my phone.
[Thunderbolt General] fixxxer2008:
i doubt it's the sim cards doing this... it's for sure the radio's. the mr1 radio on froyo drops my 3g to 1x alot, so did mr2 but mr2.5 was perfect for me. i just want a functional radio to ship this week.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
It just started a few days ago, and a friend of mine with the thunderbolt isn't having the issues I'm having.
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
Mine started doing that last week while on Gingeritis final. I flashed all kinds of roms & radios (including Froyo) with no improvement. I even went to verizon & swapped sim cards, and still no better. I went back to bone stock and finally got reliable 4G again. Very frustrating :mad:
[Thunderbolt General] Cubs2008:
I've been having this issue for a couple of weeks at home but at work the LTE connection is rock solid. I think it's the network where I'm at. I went back to an old Froyo build and radio set and it was the same issue. I've tried every radio combo both GB and Froyo ROM's and it behaves the same way. At work no issue...at home I have to switch to wifi. It'll show LTE with bars (sometimes full 4...usually 3) and I will have activity on the up/down arrows and it'll work for a minute and then stop working until finally the LTE icon goes away and it goes to 1x (or even sometimes 3G and I'm in LTE mode.)
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
Its looking more and more like a network problem. Might as well save myself a trip to the Verizon store. Oh well, not that big of a deal I guess. Stand in line for 40 minutes for them to tell me they can't help.
[Thunderbolt General] dpdurst:
Mine does this but I'm on the edge of the 4G signal where I live. I just lock in 3G and don't worry about it. When I get in an area I need to use some speed I turn 4G back on.

[General Questions and Answers] ZeroKey92:
Hi!

I just got my HTC HD2 and now wanted to install a different OS. After installing MAGLDR (v. 1.13) I tried to copy the OS files to my SD card using the USB mass storage option. But after about 100 mb MAGLDR freezes completely and blocks all data transfers. Only way to get it back working is removing the battery. The SDcard is 8GB big and I'm running Win7 64-Bit on my PC.

Any suggestions how to fix this problem? I don't want to buy a microSD card reader just because of a software problem.

Thanks in advance!

[General Questions and Answers] Ca5c4d3:
This is due to a bad/incompatibble sd card. I had a 2GB card that worked just fine but could not use as a mass storage in MAGLDR 1.13. The card would work just fine anywhere else. I replaced it with a 16GB class 6 sd and all went fine.

Hello,

I want to upgrade my DEFY from Eclair to Gingerbread; I've read lotsa posts on what to use and where to put this and that but unfortunately I'm not into this and some slang terms (not tech terms, I just mean pure slang) are hell for me.

Is there any guide I can easily follow?

Moreover, on the XDA DEFY Wiki there's a great mole of information but actually I'm a bit lost: what's the best ROM with no BLUR easy like a piece of pie?

Thanks!
[Defy General] 57op:
There isn't an official ROM of Gingerbread.

Nevertheless you can install it by flashing a leaked sbf or by installing a rom such as cyanogenmod or miui.

If you want to install leaked gingerbread, you'd better making a nandroid backup.

Then, you should install a nandroid backup of that rom and at the end flash a fixed sbf, in order to keep downgrade ability.

If you want to install cyanogenmod or miui, you have to upgrade to a froyo sbf ( flash a full sbf or a nandroid + fixed sbf ).

Then, install clockwork recovery mod and flash the rom.

Search better on the forum, there are lots of clear and simple guides!

[Defy General] psixda:
I'm exactly facing your same situation: I opened a thread in defy general section to see if it's safe to install CM7.

I use this phone for work, therefore I need something stable and as much as possible bug free.

Until now the only problem I could read is camera related (last CM7 RC1) and that's it.

Sent from my MB525
[Defy General] [] AL []:
Nothing is 100% safe in life, but I can assure you that CM7 for Defy is very nice and with very few bugs left in it.

Fresh news: last RC1 has been changed to PRE-RC1 just a few hours ago by Epsylon3. There is a new replacement for RC1 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1033654&page=771 (see post #7708 for download)

Or from the main page (not sure if it's the final RC1 yet - it might take a few hours before they update the mirror to the latest RC1 on the OP): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1033654

And please read the FAQ here first: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1065798

The installation process is really easy and if you follow the FAQ instructions, you will have no problem with CM7. You will need to flash the nordic sbf (Froyo) in the process --> so there are steps specific to you to take for keeping your Eclair (or Froyo) "downgradabiltiy"...

You will need to use custom recovery to make a (nand) backup of your current phone software state (which is always good to have anyway).

That new RC1 is REALLY GOOD (hands downs the best version) and I have ZERO bug with it so far.

I'd stay away from the other Gingerbread 'official' leaked ROM; MANY problems reported on it I believe (heck; I've read that even rooting it is hard...).

Later on, if you really don't like CM7 [which I greatly doubt ;)], then you can always go back to your current state - BUT again, read the FAQ carefully.

Edit:

CM7 is just awesome I've been using it almost since its beginning (maybe 20 different revisions); i will never go back to Froyo - it's that good!

If you find this post useful, you can thank me by pressing this "Thanks" button here under-->: ;)
[Defy General] 57op:
Yes, CM7 RC1 it almost bug free ( imho totally ).

There are only 2 things i hate about leaked gingerbread:

Ultra brightness for the touch keys.

If mobile data is disabled from the settings, you'll see an arrows icon fixed in status bar ( no way to hide it without enabling data ).

These are the reasons for which i'm still using, absolutely satisfied, CM7; it works like a charm :D!

[HD2 Android NAND Development] streetster:
Hi Guys,

It appears that the HD2 hardware is capable of doing continuous autofocus in camcorder mode. There is a video on youtube of a guy using the (discontinued) shubCRAFT 2.0 build. Search 'FtFiUByHmg4' as I'm not allowed to post links.

Is is possible to extract the Camera.apk file from the shubCRAFT build and inject it into a NAND (for example CM7) build?

It must be more complicated than that, as when I tried to do this my camera app just FCs as soon as I click on it.

I've attached the apk file to see if anyone else has better luck.

Thanks,

Mark
[HD2 Android NAND Development] YZ:
That would be awesome! :)

Works on wp7.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] streetster:
OK, so after clearing Dalvik cache the old 'version 1' camera loads, but the autofocus doesnt work... maybe it's something in the settings returned by the kernel.

I've been trying to have a poke around the source code (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...bread/src/com/android/camera/VideoCamera.java)...

And in the startVideoRecording() method 'CameraSettings.setContinuousAf(mParameters, true);' is called.

This sets the 'enable-caf' value in mParameters...

which is set to 'on' if the parameters contains 'taking-picture-zoom'.

Not sure where the parameters are taken from though... and/or whether the HD2 has this set.

... i'll keep digging and see what I can find.

[e!]

So... I've hacked away, tried to force autofocus to be on all the time in video recorder mode (whether recording or not - the fact that you have to switch to the camera to get the initial focus is crap)... but I've gotten nowhere, so am thinking that it may have been something in the kernel instead/too. I'll have a look there too later.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] streetster:
Am never a fan of double posting but this is a half bump / half progress report.

I cant seem to enable continuous auto focus yet... am sure there is some fudging that can be done.

In the meantime I've made it so that if you tap the screen in camera mode the camera will auto-focus (once), and when you switch from camera -> video camera mode the camera will auto-focus (again, just once).

Am hoping that with some more hacking about with the cyanogenmod source I'll be able to get something that polls and does an auto-focus every 10s or something... though am not sure if there is a way to check that the camera is already focussed before this happens.

... has anyone else been hacking with the HD2 camera? I saw some threads about 720p video recording but nothing seems to have happened to that for some time.

Mark

[e!] - hmm looks like you cant call autoFocus() outside of preview mode. Must be something in the kernel that will allow CAF seeing as it worked in the shubcraft build.

[e!!] I've attached the WIP Camera.apk file, this has tap-to-focus in Camera mode and focus on switch to camcorder. Not had any spare time to look into autofocus yet.

In order to use this you want to either use Root Explorer to replace the current /system/app/Camera.apk or use adb:

% adb shell mount -o remount -rw -n /system
% adb push Camera.apk /system/app/
% adb shell mount -o remount -r -n /system
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brolynchhung:
Hope you can figure something out. Auto focus would definitely improve the video quality. I'm sure if the auto focus works on WP7, then Android could definitely do it as well. I remember using the Shubcraft and the JDMS rom way back and it worked there.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mrolp:
Did you have any progress?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] streetster:
No more than in my posts above... and then the digitizer of my HD2 died so no more development for me :(

Sorry guys...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pirlano:
I'm resuming the thread since i was reading cyanogen camera source and searching "CameraSettings.setContinuousAf()" this page appered.

Seems that camera app is easy to modify to support Continous Autofocus, but something in the kernel or in the libcamera doesn't allow us to CAF in recording mode

I already found that Sense ROM are able to do Touch To Focus when recording, but they not focus very well (seems that they always focus to infinite), so it's again a kernel or libcamera problem

any kernel dev here? :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ph03n!x:
For the benefit of everyone, here is the YouTube video with continuous auto-focus

[YOUTUBE]FtFiUByHmg4[/YOUTUBE]

...and the link for ROM by @shu8i.

I looked up this thread, and there doesn't seem to be a mention of what was done to make continuous autofocus work. Some observations though:

It is a SD ROM

It uses Hastrain 7.7+ and ElBartoME #3 kernels (Couldn't find anything on camcorder autofocus in Hastrain's thread, and couldn't find a kernel thread for ElBartoME #3)

It is FroYo 2.2.1

Now that we know the phone is capable of continuous autofocus in camcorder mode, how to get it working? Tested my CM7 based build, and it doesn't work!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ph03n!x:
Thanks a lot Mods for moving this thread to the Dev forum!!

[HD2 Android NAND Development] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
My CM 6 FROYO has this camera and continuos focus works if im not mistaken. I used the camera lib and some other things to make the camera and camcorder work because of fc with tytungs r12 old cam kernel.

Edit : It does work on my CM 6 FROYO. I recorded some video and no Fcs and everytime I moved it would auto focus properly. Try it out I have both cLK and Mag version. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] erlern:
You beat me to it.... Yes, CM6 had continuous focus which was left out in CM7. I think Steve Kondik was the one who wrote that in, so you might want to ask him or just look through the changes he did back in Froyo. All the best!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
If they modify the apk to work for gingerbread. Than it would work.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ph03n!x:
True - I looked it up in a HTC Legend with "stock" CM7, and it did not have auto-focus either.

So looks if CM7 adds this function we will get it too? Do we know if this is already being worked on?

[HD2 Android NAND Development] negromnia90:

I'm big on metadata and Poweramp does the trick for me. It shows all the embedded artwork, doesn't reload the art as much as other players, and has embedded lyric support.

It's not free though, and the screenshots look ugly. It looks a tad better with the neon skin though, especially on our Vibrants.

MIUI music shows album art and such, but not embedded lyrics. It fetches them off the web. The album art display is too small for my tastes too, unlike poweramp (in settings, hide equalizer deck, looks much better)

Ubermusic is free as a beta for now and it has the wonderful metro UI from WP7. That one doesn't give lyrics though, but I'm planning to get it. It is terrific, it shows album art in the notification tray. Right now it is a bit buggy, but it's usable.

And doubletwist is fine, but it's laggy at times, and it keeps reloading the album thumbnails. It's slow at loading them too.

I haven't tried bTunes.
