Recognized my music just fine from the first time.

I don't like wma's. It's developed by Microsoft so the support is limited to their equipment :p. You can easily convert them to MP3 and then you're rid of them for good =P

Developers don't like to repeat everything all the time. They spend a lot of time already, so the least that you can do, as user, is to spend some time reading what has been said already.

FE: I read this thread every day, I start where I ended the day before. Just to make sure I didn't miss anything or I noticed issues that weren't reported yet :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Looks like we can add another HD2 XDA member to the dying phones list...

My HD2 is on its way out to now :mad:

This afternoon is started hardlocking and SODing and i could not figure out wtf its problem was, and the more i played it the worse it got, finally i simply pulled the battery and left it on the desk as we where on our way out to go watch real steel (AWESOME MOVIE BTW!)

When i got back i tried going back to basics, and anything to do with my NAND is a bad ending.

Cant get WM6.5 to work, energy rom and Artemis

Windows phone 7 either locks up on boot or bootloops (yukiXDA green mango)

Any NAND android rom (tried a couple MIUI and Dorimanx Builds) either works but does random wierd **** or wont boot

So.. in an attempt to try and keep my phone working until i have some money to get a new one i have

Task29

Reflashed HSPL

Reflashed Radio

Reflashed MAGLDR

I did a format of data and system in 10/150/10 layout and theres "allot" of bad sectors in both of them :( it used to be only 1 in system and 2 in data but now.. wow its swiss cheese in there.

Downloaded and going to try and use an SD android build and hope that 3DAK kernel isnt trouble for me.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
My ROM is very stable now. Made few calls, texted, listened some music, did some benchmarking. Love it. Making a full nandroid backup (including sd-ext) as we speak.

Thanks for your work, Dorimanx.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] augustopacheco:
i installed "Boot Boost V3 + CRON V2.3" and now i have 1428 in quadrant... no, i don't have converted databases to WAL...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
Wasn't there some tool that could scan and flag bad sectors?

Btw, did you do anything special to the phone lately? I'm just trying to get my head around the sudden 'cancer growth' of bad sectors in NAND these days.

And I don't know whether it helps but maybe experiment with different partition layouts? At least as a temporary solution.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
yeah theres a tool called MTTY and you can do things but it has been proven that flag them all you want... for some reason the phones firmware ignores the flags :confused:

Angeldeath has tried everything to get those bad sectors to be ignored.

For me, i really need to keep this phone alive for a few more months because if i kill it i have no money for another, money is tight. So im just going to stop playing with the nand... im afraid if i keep messing with it and something goes south and MAGLDR wont load i am FUBAR'ed

Iv been at this phone for two weeks now.. you guys know how iv been complaining about all these issues... guess now i know whats been going on! iv been flashing all kinds of roms as you know, i even tried two winmo 6.5 roms and...

Artemis booted but kept freezing and it rebooted itself when i sent myself a txt msg for test, energy rom booted but also i got slowness and a few random reboots/bootloops.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] erlern:
(I'm bumping this again, sorry... no one replied)

Hi Dorimanx,

Thanks for the latest updates... very stable for me. However, I wanted to highlight something that happens on video recording (I'm on HierOS 1.7.4 as suggested

- the audio does not sync with the video

- there is occasional stuttering on the video (after a few seconds it will lag for half a sec to one sec, which begins the audio problems).

Can someone please verify their video recording? Thank you so much! Hope to have a perfect (as good as can be) video recording experience

Btw, I'm using Toshiba 16GB Class 4 microsd, and on the Light ROM
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
For me the video is correctly in sync with the audio. I did a 20 second clip to test. Does it always happen or only during long recordings? What are your video settings? HD? High?

I had the video stuck problem in older ROM's too. But not with an audio desync. I haven't had it since a month now though. Maybe try to flash tytung kernel and check whether you still have the stutter issue. It's a bit trial and error for these kinds of problems. That and check whether there are no ext4 errors on your card. Play with the settings of the recorder: put HD to Ligh or Low, try a different format, ...

I am using 16GB Class 10 with HIGH-END ROM. But it doubtful this has anything to do with your issue ;-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] erlern:
Thanks for the prompt reply :) Can I please bother you with a longer than 60 sec clip? I forgot to include that item into my post earlier.

What kernel are you using?

Thanks again!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
Made a 2min clip, no audio sync problem. I updated my previous reply. Maybe check those hints ;-) I'm also using HierOs 1.7.4.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Good News, Phone physically works.

Spose the one thing that makes me sad is i had it working amazing, but this major playup today happen after flashing todays updates, wich lead me to restoring the backups, i guess from that point on the nand got really bad after restoring i think it was 2 or 3 times.

I guess my last good nand flash for ever was when i posted about how perfect 2.8.8 was :)

Dont worry about me guys, atleast i still have a HD2 that can be made to work... I feel more sorry for those of you whose HD2 have completely **** themselves you cant even boot a rom at all.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] erlern:
Thanks.... using Tytung kernel produced the same problem for me. I applied the Data to NAND update and voila... it works. Now going to flash back to Hieros to see whether it still works :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gerardroid:
hey dm(all)

just installed your data/extv4...ran antutu before and after both gave me a score around the 2500+..sofar everything runs smooth..hieros 1.7.4 v11

how about hieros 1.8.3 can we flash it or have to wait for it to be modified?

greets gerard
[HD2 Android NAND Development] htcfreak:
Very low battery backup on 2.8.8.1 & the suggested kernel :'(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Hammerfest:
ummm... your battery life is bad you mean? sorry, a bit confused here...

Hrm, is ThemeManager.apk needed since I remove ThemeChooser.apk? Or is it still somehow necessary?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
you can flush it, but then loose camera rec,

+ low mic gain, you will need to replace the mic volume script with my from 1.7.4

Sent from my HD2
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Belzebuth.:
I freeze it in Titanium Backup everytime without problems... ;)

If you're not sure, freeze it, make a backup and if no problem after few days, remove the application.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] feanor91:
You misunderstood, iti is not a swap, I bought it.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Belzebuth.:
No, because I heard Visentinel complain about a SwiftKeyX issue when converting database to WAL...:o

Is there any other app doing the same as SuperUser, because "we have to close some doors" to see what's the origin of periodical little instability?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
Make a nandroid backup and try yourself ;p and then you can let us know... and the new quadrant score :p

I cant do it. Dont have titanium pro :p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MystaMagoo:
Isn't Su just like a firewall for root?

Just delete SU?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nziaad:
hi dorimanx, i'm still on 2.8.7.1

i am light user.what to do in case i want to flash 2.8.8.1 rom? can i flash the rom directly?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Cutting-TM:
First upgrade to 2.8.8 then install fix to 2.8.8.1
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
New update in cooking!!!!

i hope you people sit tight in you chair!

i have broke the oldest VMRAM limit of 90MB and maxed it to 683MB!

from

cat /proc/meminfo

if you do that command in your phone now,

you will see:

VmallocTotal: 90XXX kB

VmallocUsed: XXXXXX kB

VmallocChunk: XXXXXXX kB

X=some numbers

And my show!

CommitLimit: 6832692 kB = 683MB!!! RAM + SWAP!

Committed_AS: 2761736 kB

VmallocTotal: 647168 kB

VmallocUsed: 139892 kB

VmallocChunk: 465924 kB

Also i have enabled write cache transfer with journal to keep the data safe!

And result is!

now i have tears of joy!

look at that!!!

# sh sd-ext-read-write.sh

WRITE to SD Speed

30000+0 records in

30000+0 records out

15360000 bytes transferred in 0.498 secs (30843373 bytes/sec) = 30.8MB!

Read from SD

30000+0 records in

30000+0 records out

15360000 bytes transferred in 0.211 secs (72796208 bytes/sec) = 72MB!

#

It's buffered transfer using free RAM and SWAP!

USB transfer 90MB file in 30SEC!!! (using BFQ scheduler! that exist only on HierOS! kernel)

in two words!

HOLY ****!!!! :)

update will be soon!

testing some more...

EDIT!!!

Some more tweaks applyed!

and now! BOOM!!!

# sh sd-ext-read-write.sh

WRITE to SD Speed

30000+0 records in

Yeee!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Hammerfest:
Whelp, I was trying to nuke that google install menu you get after the setupwizard and also the first time you run the market, thought it was ApplicationsProvider.apk, guess I was wrong... Cant figure out how to nuke tablet tweaks as well...

BUT, that doesn't matter, because Dorimanx I have to say this latest ROM feels STUPID STABLE/FAST (im only 2 hours in, but thoughts are there for the taking)!

Im gonna play with it more this evening when I get home from work at 10... BUT, I can honestly say, Its good to have my phone back after a week+ of not having it! (and woah.. lots o voicemails...)

I also have a few sounds I cannot find to nuke out of the rom but I get the feeling since they weren't in the media folder that they are probably going to stay...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
ohh :(

bummer to lose such veteran valued member!

but! hey have a great time with your new phone! :)

Good for you!

One day we all will swap to something better and hardware faster!

come by to visit me sometimes :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Never delete SU!!!

you will loose ROOT for all apps!

it's not just app, it's must have APP!

or you get stock rom, with 90% apps not working!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Hammerfest:
1: damn you Dormanx, I just spent the last 2 hours getting this .zip prepped for single install and distrib then you come along with a huge breakthrough... STOP FEEDING MY ADDICTION (read: dont stop... keep up the good work... I fracking love your work/updates/constant attempts at squeezing speed from this wonderful device!)

2: if anyone is going to remove SU, remove the SU.apk then reinstall it with Market, but leave the SU file (binary) alone or you will be TOTALLY fubared for SU er "root" requiring apps...!

Down @ 120Mb System.. (well 115 actually)

~Hammerfest
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
the wizard is a pain in #$% but it's just one time thing... complete it, then it's pops again , ignore all, skip all , then it's FC and die! all cool.

the tablet tweaks buttons can be disabled in settings > con.. mod settings > tablet tweaks > choose soft buttons!

there just remove all check boxes!

have fun,

new mega update is coming!!! 2.8.8.2
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Belzebuth.:
DM, can you take a look at your scripts concerning SetCPU, I have the feeling that it doesn't do the same than in previous version:

After boot, script stopped and Set CPU was working with his own profiles. My HD2 is stable @ 1536MHz, but it seems that SetCPU begins to switch to the profiles only if you open it...:confused:

If, after 5min. I look in System Tuner Pro, it's still @1497MHz, but if I open SetCPU, it switch @1536MHz or @997MHz if I'm charging, or 667MHz if Bat.<33%...:confused:

Any idea?

BTW., does anybody knows what is "zygote", eating 29Mb of Memory?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
Yes i have idea :)

if your phone is stable in 1.53Ghz!

then open the BOOT BOOST addon zip!

find file

00turbo-boot

09turbo-boost-off

add in 00turbo-boot

echo 1536000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

and in 09turbo-boost-off add

echo 1536000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

save with notepad ++ or EditPLUS to preserve UNIX code!

Install the ZIP!

now max cpu will be 1.53 after boot, and when setcpu change profiles and back to default it's will jump to 1.53G! :)

i have set it to 1.47 because it's stable for all.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
You have GOTE in system :) beeeeeeey :)

it's Linux process, better for you to exclude Linux process, you cant kill them any way, so why look at them :)

HERE IS SOME INFO!

It's the main process for all system!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zeppelinrox:
OMG LMAO

I needed that laugh hehehe...

Hey why's the thread so busy you got 50 pages in 5 days or something... lol
[HD2 Android NAND Development] augustopacheco:
so, i install "ROM-Dorimanx-2.8.8.1-FIX-LIGHT-MAG" and then "DORIMANX-V4-NEW-INSTALL-NAND-DATA-TO-EXT-CLK-MAG", reboot and all seems to be ok... how do i now that "DORIMANX-V4-NEW-INSTALL-NAND-DATA-TO-EXT-CLK-MAG" is install and working?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
DATA to EXT is made possible in CM7 by me :)

People try!

many get all fine!

and some still stuck with bugs!

i am trying to help every one! :)

so very busy week!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
check how much room you have on DATA!

if it's has lots of free space then all cool!

check quadrant advanced score!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] augustopacheco:
where i see how much room i have on DATA?

quadrant: between 1300 - 1350
[HD2 Android NAND Development] PPlayer:
Sorry for these silly questions but I am newbie. Mine is T-Mo and usually loaded around 20 user apps (not many). However I would like to experiment Max speed. So what configuration should I try? Light + data-2-ext? Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ionbasa:
Use High End + Cron.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] PPlayer:
Thanks for the advice but i see that recent discussions is about data2ext which was said to increase Quadrant score. Should i use that?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ionbasa:
Yes, you should. I personally have a class 2 16Gb sd card with 2 gig ext partition + 256 swap and the rest is formatted to fat 32 .
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Hey mate nono don't worry, sorry I forgot to update on that. My SwiftKey played up more even after reverting it from wal.

My phone was playing up, read last couple of pages on it. My NAND is buggered.

On that by the way... Mtty confirmed I have a swiss cheese for nand.

I'm out of warrenty to.

Here's the good news, looks like where it counts my band is okay, HSPL, radio, SPL splash image, MAGLDR all ok.

And using a sdrom and its all very stable again.

It's a bummer, but as I said... Its a working phone right?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Oh god, oh dear. I Want!

But can't have... Or can I?

This is it. I want that buffered writes. I must figure out how make your romantic rom an SD build now.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ionbasa:
A quick question for the Dev...

Can we get this included with the ROM or as an separate optional .zip

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276

The script will need some tweaking to make it work with the latest version of busybox though.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Dorimanx already tweaks (supercharges) the rom, its all done and cooked in already.

Also Dorimanx's supercharging is supirior to Zeppilinrox's work :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ionbasa:
:D hehehe he already ahead of the game!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ionbasa:
hmmm my VmallocTotal also shows 647168
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Hammerfest:
while this is true, I always see updates for most things so it doesn't hurt all that much when someone mentions it incase some new scripts where added that improve it even farther :P (that or he sees something he missed!, either way, LOL!)

As for my current setup I am almost borderline wanting to just stick with latest Keifer since it doesnt give me issues, main reason is that in Quadrant Standard (latest) I now get 1367~ when before 2.8.6 I would get 1525~... BUT, I got what I got, and it looks like since .35 kernel is getting a running start all others have decided to bail out of the biz :(

Keep it up Dorimanx... just got home from work, more work in 8 hours... so... SLEEP, maybe if i have enough time when I wake 2.8.8.2 will be out :D (and that I will have time to fiddle with it HAR HAR HAR!

"The BEST part of WAKING UP! Is a new Dorimanx ROM to flash...." ok terrible rendition, but you get my point...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Yes True, im still going to read this forum daily, now dont you go flashing your phone constantly or your end up like me :P. Im Looking into trying to somehow manage to place DM's CWM zip content into some image files and go through scripts to keep an eye out for mount points or whatever, im going to be back on this rom sooner or later...

I might need some help tho.. this stuff is wraking my brains, im a WINTEL geek not a Linux Geek :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rudyfastcat:
Great Job Dorimanx

Here are some pics of the quadrant advanced results when you use "DORIMANX-V4-NEW-INSTALL-NAND-DATA-TO-EXT"

Lower score is the B4 and the higher is after flashing NAND-DATA-TO-EXT

All on 2.8.8.1 CLK
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Visentinel:
Could the massive quadrant score (I was getting close to 3000 aswell) be "sortof" cheating ?

You know its all thanks to Dorimanx with the tweaked IO and buffers/write caches and all that... so its more of a tweaked score right ?

Im not saying its not Valid, just putting the question out there ;):p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MystaMagoo:
Will this work with Light?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] efebe:
If you can see, Quadrant measures some stuff as the CPU, I/O, 3D, etc... and the result that shows u is just a combination or an addition of all the scores u got on each part. If Dorimanx tweaked the ROM so the I/O can perform faster, then quadrant is gonna show u a bigger score on that part. So, I dont know what are u trying to say by "tweaked score", but that is just what Quadrant measures :) !
[HD2 Android NAND Development] augustopacheco:
this is my result

i install again DORIMANX-UDGRADE-V4-NAND-DATA-TO-EXT-CLK-MAG and CRON-TASKS-2.3 and ROM-Dorimanx-All-Kernels--V3-Boot-Boost-addon, and the results are the same... but in quadrant i can´t realise the test of my card... is fc...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
Yes it is sort of 'cheating'. The weight of the IO score is proportionally bigger than it's ought to be in the total score. The Quadrant Advanced benchmark is for older devices and didn't foresee a IO score above a certain level.

The proof of that is the variance in the scores. Do 5 runs and you will get a big difference in all of them while it's the same phone and ROM. It's just a 'lucky' score :P Day 1 you can get 2100, day 2 something like 2900. The result is too different to draw any conclusion. However, 2100 is still bigger than our 2000 in the past. So the only conclusion we can draw is: IO operations are somewhat faster than before. But to say that IO performance has improved with 1/3 from 2000 to 3000 is not correct.

The best benchmark we could do is put two phones next to each other and do a heavy IO operation on both, then check which phone finished faster :P Anyone has two HD2 phones? :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tmotard:
How to prevent the phone from sleeping with certain app?

For example my phone always sleeping after about 1 minute when listenig to webradio.....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
Which version of Quadrant are you using?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Belzebuth.:
Like I wrote in the post with Quadrant picture and the "record" of my phone, those are only numbers. But using always the same benchmark permit to see the evolution of the ROM, even if I'm now on 2900 in place of the 3249, we can admit that ROM seems 30% faster... ;)

Btw, DB to WALES didn't show any changes in my scores...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] augustopacheco:
Device Mark 1.3
[HD2 Android NAND Development] htcfreak:
Yes I have a poor battery backup
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ORiZorrie:
It's not because your score went from 1900 to 2900 that your rom is 30% faster. There is more to it than the IO speed. The benchmark tool is just pulling it out of proportion. Please read my previous post again.

Moving the data to ext is not the holy grail. It's existing for long time already. What are the access time differences between NAND and SD-card. Is there any tool by which we can measure that? My guess is that the access time for nand is thousand times better than for SD.Which is exactly what a responsive device needs imo. I'm very skeptical about this whole thing. Everyone is focusing on a flawed benchmarking tool and it makes me sad.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dorimanx:
i will post the update soon.

finishing some last tests!!!

yes i think i have mistaken! the default was 60MB not 90MB

Fantastic rom, and tweaks, bean avay for week, and wau, can't wait that new update. Quadrant before 1500,now2700, same in Antutu, thanks king of linux. Only problem it bean to read all posts last 7 days.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Bluntastic:
heyhey,

I like the rom but right now i can't tell of any difference between this and any other rom concerning speed/responsiveness.

But I experience lags during normal use. Sometimes the phone just does nothing for a minute or so. Then it performes all the clicks I did during its "abtinence".

Does anyone experience this behavior too? Maybe i'm doin' something wrong...

I use latest version High End.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jairrab:
I dont know it's probably just me but i feel like having data to nand seems faster and smoother overall than having data to ext, even though data to ext results to much higher quadrant results
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mandrakur:
I can tell you only that this rom is every day better, and that, then you must read every day posts and to format again sd every month(for me this is bean problem before, but I think there is some tweaks to defragment sd or extr4 only, i can't remember its to much improvements), and of course luck like pc, every phone is different, no matter that we have all hd2. And bad sectors,... But we are every day in good way to have perfect rom, and better than better rom...
