CIQ / HTC & Google Checkin / HTC loggers?

Hi there XDA people!

I did a quick thread search and didn't find anything, so apologies if this has already been brought up. With all the hoohah going on over Carrier IQ at the moment I wanted to check with both the OP and the readers of this thread whether any or all of the tips provided by the knowledgeable, now infamous TrevE in this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1247108 have been done in our favourite ROM. I know some of the steps are kernel only and some are ROM only and I wish I had time to pull the files apart myself to find out but, you know, family comes before play... I remember reading some of the HTC stuff had already been removed, but I'm not sure about the rest.

Does anyone have any ideas or input on this?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
The contacts widget issue that your having is unrelated to to the rom it is a issue with the app itself by the sounds of it!The other thing is removing apps will not reduce the size of the memory only removing system stuff like unwanted ringtones notification tones and wallpapers etc the apps are not part of the system the recovery size is determend by the size of the system the rest of the files install on the sdext and are linked to the system only!

I am changing the acdb file for the next version and the files for the mic!the issue you are having with the gallery is odd as i dont have it and not have seen anyone else post about it!

Try to understand i dont make the kernels so these issues you and other people are having are kernel issues and are not rom issues,I am limited to what i can do to make the rom to work for the kernels!So untill the issues with the kernels get fixed these issues will remain unless use flash the older kernels and put up with the glitches!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] chrisrj28:
Hey Dan, I sent you a pm with the zip files.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
Im sure all the Htc stuff has been removed from the services.jar and framework.jar the kernel ramdisk wont have any so that is all good!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kare2share:
I am quite happy with the ROM, bugs and all. Like I earlier said , it is much much better than the Original ROM that came with the phone (WM6).

My intention is only to bring it to your and other developers notice.

Thanks for the reply.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
First i have the wallpaper fix working the reason i will not release it yet is because on first install it makes the system unstable till the rom settles after a few reboots and the initd script i have to keep the launcher and lockscreens in memory for some reason does not kick in fully untill a few reboots then all is ok but to save everyone being upset and posting about there launcher redraws and lockscreen lagging on the first setup of the rom i am not going to post it till i have this issue under controll.I have made a very lot of progress from the weather lockscreen not wanting to unlock straight away to it working 100% but there is still some issues i would like to sort out.I will re edit the initd script i have to see if it will help the system to respond better for the egl's

have you made sure you have changed the recovery size?

Well ill work on that issue i think i might no what it is!It also happened to me then the status bar dissapeard but that is to be expected then a reboot is all that is needed to get the black notification pulldown to appear!

yea i got it sorry i have not Pm you back i will soon thanks!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rmriggin:
I finally got it to boot by using a stock battery instead of the extended battery that I have.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] karaern:
you mean that with the newest kernels and roms the device still cant recognize the extended battery?

i was planning to buy an extended battery...:eek:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 57ak57:
Really amazing and nearly perfect piece of work Dansta.

I heared that there is a new Runny-Base 1.11....and it is said to be better than the previous Builds.

Is there really such an improvment and if so, do you consider to use this new Base in your new version?

Dont know if its Kernel related but the swap handling could be improved as well.

Sure it depends on how big ur swap size is, SD-Card Class/Speed (and Android swap handling/Scripts ???). But im not a dev, maybe im completly wrong. But if theres a difference, is it possible to make some 64MB/128MB/256MB swap handling fixes? Atm im on 256MB but never saw a usage above 60MB. Schould i just use Supercharger and ajust my LowMemory/OOM settings? Dont wanna bricksomething or get a laggy build by doing so.

I aint complain...dont get me wrong. This is really the best and smoothest Build i ever used. Never had big issues with it, perfect for my daily use. Just trying to help ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tuktukscotty:
I have always set swap to 0. I have never bothered reading up on what the swap was for. I have this rom running sweet without swap and am just wondering if I was supposed to of set a swap size and if so what is it for??.

Thanks in advance

Scotty
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
lol the rom has nothing to do with it at all it is a kernel issue!

well for the new base i cant say for sure but it is a tiwan releasd rom im pretty sure and cant see how or why it is better!The swap handling fixes never heard of them but i will look into it but why would you need the super charger if there is nothing wrong I already have scripts for that!

Well it has come to my attention tonight that there is some scripts not needed and failing so i will sort those scripts out and re tweak some and i also have made a better loopysmooth initd script and works wonders so the next release will be even more responsive and have better low memory OMM managment!

I have ported and remoded a ext4 recover the first for the HD2 so i will be releasing the next rom and with that at the same time!

I still have not put up the damn change log for the latest version but im concentrating on the new release as i have seen a very lot of improvements that can be made and things never done for the HD2 before!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tuktukscotty:
Even more responsive????. Is that even possible lol.

This is the most responsive Sense rom I have found (And I have flashed nearly every rom on here!).

Your work is just amazing!!.

I look forward to the next release.............

Erm, sorry to ask a stupid question but if TB is one of the stock apps that's used to remove other stock apps how do I go about uninstalling TB?! :confused:

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

I tried uninstalling Zinio Reader and Slacker and neither were removed. Didn't try any other apps because it seemed that the spontaneous reboots were the problem rather than what TB would do to remove.

Having said that TB does state that the phone would be rebooted twice but it only rebooted once. How long after the 1st reboot would I expect to wait for the 2nd reboot?

EDIT: ok, got it working. Not sure what was going wrong before but I installed TB Pro, then removed it to leave the free version and managed to uninstall everything.

ROM is now as perfect as it can be given the lack of wifi/usb tethering. No glitches, wifi/data switching works, BT great, smooth as slink, no FCs (yet - touch wood!) and the ability to change fonts and other tweaks add the icing to the cake.

Thanks Dan!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 57ak57:
Swap increases your RAM by using a Partition or file on your SD-Card. Sure,its not fast like Hardware RAM but by using a good SD-Card (Class 4 is minimum i guess...just test your card-speed to be sure) you have the possibility to do some multitasking. Not really necessary for everyone...

Thanks for the quick reply Dan! As I said I'm not a developer, just want to know if there a chance to increase swap performance/usage.

Never had any sense restarts btw. System is very stable! Only multitasking is not really possible because of the standard OOM settings? Programs with a high RAM usage get killed and won't run in background.

Me too,I have been trying to change my account,I have tried to remove google account,but that I have to factory reset and I don't want to do that cos I have set up my phone the way I want it.Can someone help plz?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
:D Hard to say actually. Not sure i get them all. I'll try:

- All twitter related things (Apps, widget) (OT: i seriously hate twitter)

- All Stock related things

- Zinio, Zausan Z-Device, SoundHound, Slacker, SPBtv, PolarisOffice

- Googles +1 (plusone.apk)

This counts up for 13 entries (twitter having 3 and stock 2 entries). When i hit delete the other day it said 15 so i must have missed two but can't recall now.

---------- Post added at 04:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

Concerning the ContactWIdget: was suspecting something like that. Would be interesting to hear whether or not other people can achieve the same behaviour with a similar setup (two widgets on the same screen besides each other, covering different categorys)

Concerning the CWR/System Size: Thanks for clarifying, learnt something again. Much appreciated. Could certainly have taken that from some android documentation somewhere but as my time is always very limited i am dependent on learning on the fly...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
You can also delete any of the HTC widgets you don't use (including ones like sync, datastrip, powerstrip, autorotate, tripwidget3d, etc etc), plus the live wallpaper apks (NOT the actual livewallpaper.apk, just the files for the various LWPs like streak, visualisation, magicsmoke, etc) and especially the weatherlivewallpaper.apk as it doesn't work and takes up nearly 15Mb! I also delete music2 (Google Music), backupeverything, and loads of other stuff (I think about 40 files in total).

BUT this does nothing to reduce your system size! This just frees up sd-ext space. If you want to slim down the system size by 15Mb or so you can strip out files from system/customize/resource (wallpapers) and system/media/audio. That's all I strip and I am quite happily running with a 200Mb system partition and still have 16.3Mb free in System memory (viewed in Titanium Backup).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
No it didn't come back after reboot, nor after clearing dalvik and such. Someone pointed out he had to push systemUI.apk back into the running system to make it work again. I didn't read that before i had reinstalled the whole thing.

By the way: it is running since nearly 24 hours now and it's all quite good, many reboots since then (i mean initiated from me, no force reboots). Am very happy as of now. Muchos Gracias once more. Ran out of thanks already today. many helpful posts here since last night... :D

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:36 PM ----------

OK same story. Thanks already all gone but thank you for helping me to learn a few more things. Hope this post is not pissing you off again and hope you read it as i might still be on your ignore but anyhow... never meant to piss off anyone here soz again dude. take it easy ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Hehehe, you haven't been on my ignore list for a while now (since you stopped acting like an arse and started being interesting ;) )
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rmriggin:
The only roms I have tried that will boot without issue with my extended battery are CM7 based. The only Sense based rom that would boot with the extended battery was RCMix3D Runny v4.0.2 (looks like the RCMix3D v5 kernel works with extended batteries I assume). I have not got to try out dorimanx latest posted kernel yet though so I don't know if that kernel would work with extended batteries.

Ringtone 01_samsung_tune.mp3 broken in system

Hello Dansta34,

while skimming through the ROM to see what to remove to reduce it i stumbled across a non-working Samsung Tune ringtone in ..\system\media\audio\ringtones\.

When selected in Android, it starts for a sec and then breaks, making the audio system hang.

I redownloaded the ROM to check, it's still broken. VLC won't play it either, nor will wmp. Winamp currently doesn't work on my windows (dunno why) which could've been of help checking the file's ingredients.

I googled it, found only two working sources, containing different cover art. Audio seems to be identical.

Checked on the other ROM's and its not in there so you might want to consider to take it out or refresh it with a working one. If you want it i can send it over to you just let me know.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Kameirus:
wow a real simple fix for that

dont use it
[HD2 Android NAND Development] altix31:
Eventually I used a CWM 5-330-15 with 1GB EXT on SD and after using a day with some little apk, FreeSpace gives (Size/Used in MB):

Data: 577/304

Ext: 915/215

SD-card: 6610/3678

System: 330/304

I think the system needs some memory during installation (to uncompress for example) and when it can't found enough free memory it crashes :(

So 400 MB SD-EXT should not be enough for install.

Change WIFI ADDR

Hello Cracks,

I tried to change the Wifi-Mac to my old Hardware Mac-Addr.

Started with edit in folder /system/etc/ the file "calibration"

first line macaddr="hardware-Addr from my Leo"

(with Root Editor)

After save this file, I checked the change and it was in the file "calibration" the new Wifi-Addr written!

But after reboot of my HD2 the Wifi-Addr was always the Software-Addr and not the changed Hardware-Addr. ;(

And also the Wifi entry in the file "calibration" was changed back to

the Software-addr.

Where is the issue? Any Ideas?

Please help

Regards

Golf;)

better fix is to mute your phone :D

I am trying to be all smiles and graces with all these loving cheerful comments... :D

Don't we say: "If you dish it out, you have to be able to take it"? I will try, or else cry. To your pleasure, dear sirs n mam's. :p

I am very well aware that takin out a defunct mp3 would be the easiest fix.

FYI, i have even mentioned it in my post. Read first, then comment. Thank you for your attention guys.

PS: the Samsung Tune can be found in my mediafire folder. I tried to check the Copyright status but couldn't and since its been included in the ROM i think it doesn't hurt anyone if i share it.

Hello dansta34,

I'm using your ROM v2.5 on TMOUS model with CLK 1.6.5 DE, CWM 5.0.2.6 and recommended partition sizes for EU and Transcend 16GB class 10 card. After 24h (flashed it last night) I would say it is very good ROM, snappy with nice transition animation, good camera app(camcorder:()...

Generally very good experience while using it.

I have just tried youtube clip in Opera and that crashed the browser. Adobe Flash Player was updated (11.1.102.59) automatically after first boot so I didn't have the chance to try Flash from the ROM. I couldn't connect to facebook account - first couple of times I thought password was mistyped but after that app doesn't react on tap at all. Unpluged the phone at 7 am, 3% left now (after 15 hrs) so it's not bad - I've managed thru the day (30 min of call, lots of net over wifi and mobile, trying out the GPS but it worked only first time).WiFi works, can connect to adhoc networks. Didn't try the bluetooth.

ROM volume issue

hey guys, i only have one problem with this amazing ROM , for some reason and after i restart my phone the volume of any sound ( ringtones, alarms , alerts ) becomes very low, barely audible in fact even if it is set to maximum volume in settings, to fix this issue i have to wipe dalvik cache and restart the phone, that solves the problem for a while until it happenes all over again, anybody experienced the same problem ? any suggestion is appreciated cuz i really like this ROM and i wanna use it on a daily basis , thank you
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
Yes i am well aware and i will have that issue sorted in the next release!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] phoenixrise:
thank you dansta34 , glad to know that it will be sorted out in your next magical release ;-) , best regards
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kare2share:
+1 & Thanks

Also wanted to add one more finding with regards to Ringmode.

I set the phone on vibrate mode, but after a while it trips back to ring mode on its own.

I found a vast difference in the performance on doing an install after deleting the .dot directories and the android directory. suggest that be added as a process for installation.

Hi!

Lastly I tried to send a MMS message to my girlfriend. I've attached a photo and only a text had been send. I didn't found anything in options to change except of reports. What did I wrong? Anyone with the same problem?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
lol thanks mate well in 3 to 4 days I will be releasing the new updated rom and also also my theme as i am working on it now finally and i will be releasing my modded ext4 revovery originaly made by madmax it will be the most advanced recovery and the first ext4 recovery for the hd2 and supports CLK also

hmm odd check your apn mms settings!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] karaern:
maybe its a lil bit out of topic question, but dansta do you plan to start ice cream sandw rom development? smth like this one :cool:. I mean your ROMs are now pretty nice and very good for everyday use...

i am just curious..;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] t1190t:
About GPS just work on time, i saw the way to solve before

this is my step

※Remember!!!! back up the file before you change

※If you don't want to change [gps.conf] by yourself, you can download mine! And change Asia to your country. I don't know using FasterFix will make it return to the original or not, you can try this way after using FasterFix

--------My gps.conf------

after download my file, just do it from step 7

1.install Root explore (or any app just like this)

2.go into 「/system/etc」and find [gps.conf]

3.copy or pull it to your SD card

4.connect your PC and your phone, pull the [gps.conf] into computer

5.open it (if you can't open it with double click, just try it with Notepad)

6.Add these three lines into there

GPS1_XTRA_AUTO_DOWNLOAD_ENABLED=1

GPS1_XTRA_DOWNLOAD_INTERVAL=24

GPS1_SESSION_TIMEOUT=2

7.save it, and pull it back to your phone by root explore (/system/etc)

8.Long press the file and choose Permission

9.just do it like this

10.after that, reboot you phone and test your GPS again!!!

Sorry for my poor English, and if any wrong in my step, just tell me, i'll remove it, thnaks:D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
Well the ICS is only a AOSP rom when they release the sense 4 with ICS I will do that Rom!

I hear the AOSP iCS Rom is nothing special !
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Ty5982:
a theme such as the red & blue 1's available,would be sick if u could make it built in ur rom so we dnt have to flash etc,comes as standard i mean,only request i would make is to make more memory available after 1st install,i USED to use nrg roms(latest sense version),same recovery as yours etc and after install i would always have around 250mb internal memory free,with yours i have around 140mb free,THEN YOU'VE HIT THE JACKPOT,just my opinion though,no offence intended lol
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Ty5982:
i posted this b4 v2.5 was released,now this is already in the gps config folder lol,also u wanna try readin posts by tytung about GPS FIX,i made the same mistake b4 posting the same as urself,also,try lookin at posts by Angel Death,he's 1 step ahead
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dansta34:
LOL there is no way in hell you would have had 250 mg with the same recovery size or smaller you are not right!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
@Dansta34 Since my last install i notice an increased battery drain although the ROM works really well now. Even BT toggling from the power widget sorta works again.

Is there any way to investigate the high drainage and where it might stem from apart from the usual battery overview (Which states the Display as the highest drainer)?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Ty5982:
i've just flashed the latest sense rom by nrg(sd-ext version),just to double check lol,i changed recovery to 5/200/5,and afta 1st boot and its settled,i have 241mb internal memory free,new i wasn't going daft lol
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Well my layout is 5/200/8 and after fresh flash here without installing any additional apps I have 206Mb free. I take it you are referring to internal storage memory. And are you in MAGLDR with 'Use last 24Mb' enabled?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Ty5982:
THAT'S EXACT LY WHAT I HAVE lol,nice to see sum1 else can back me up lol,new i wasn't dreamin,
