Hello Brush2 and sandymac. Thank you both for your replies. I am in Portugal but I already tried the gps.conf fix with no luck. If you (Brush2) think you can get me a fix I will be glad to try it.

I paid Copilot and Navigon. Do you think it is worth buying IGO without being sure it will work? What GPS monitoring program do you have in mind? Is it free?

Thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Can you advise how much free memory you have. Just wondering if it is the app running out of memory. I use GPS Status which is free from the market. Don't buy IGO as I can't guarantee that it will work without further information on your setup. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
Task Manager reports 116 MB free Total memory. Is there another way to check free memory. Because I tried to install a memory manager and it seems I don't have enough memory.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
AFAIK you can't 'buy' iGO anywhere. It is only available to *cough cough* 'find'... I can also confirm however that in over two years of using iGO in my HD2 (1st WinMo and then for a year and a half on Android) I never once had a GPS drop. Had a couple of phone freezes due to OC I guess or heat, but never any issue with GPS. IMHO Crypted's gps.conf with the cleanup stuff added gives the best performance of any setup I've tried, but that's just my experience - might be different for others. I personally use Tytungs NMEA libs, Arne's last posted libgps.so which you can find some way back in Tytungs GPS thread, and Crypted's gps.conf (edited) and suplroot.cert.

Make sure you are looking at free system memory (RAM) and not just quoting free storage memory.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
Update info:

Internal storage 106MB used 9.2MB free

Phone Storage 3.1GB used 3.4GB free

RAM 158MB used 154MB free

It doesn't smell too good. What have I done wrong?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
LMAO - cough :D You are obviously right on the first point.......
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
Hi there Dunc001. Thank you for your reply. Can you post a link to Tytungs NMEA libs?

One thing I just remembered because of your OC freeze is my phone gets hot when the screen freezes. Just the screen. The application is still running.

Thanks

Look in Titanium and give the following:

SD Card (a2sd)

Screen freezes? Sounds like you have problems and it is not build related. Try to move your phone away from direct sunlight. If the processor overheats then you will get problems. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
Here it goes

System ROM: 262MB(110MB free)

Internal: 120MB(8.19MB free)

SD Card: 6.97GB(3.68GB free)

SD Card (a2sd) 1.00GB (329MB free)

What I wanted to say is the image in the screen was moving as the car moves and it stops (not freeze) when the GPS signal drops. The phone gets a little hot when this happens but the temperature gets back to normal after I stop the application.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Lolo78:
In fact some Cellphone Carriers like "FREE" in France support EAP-SIM authentication with their Public WLAN hotspots.

The Wlan acces key is read from the sim card to authenticate with the acces point. So you don't need to enter the key or request a password to connect to the hotspot.

When it is implanted in rom you have Normaly, this option ("SIM") should be present when you choose "802.1x EAP" mode on a new WIFI Connection, but I got only "PEAP", "TLS" and "TTLS" in options.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Well, from the figures, I would say that you are running out of memory as you only have 8.19Mb free. What partition did you use when flashing the phone? Looks like you used the TMOUS settings
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
Most likely. I couldn't find some instructions to flash the ROM. Can you tell me where I can find a guide so I can do it properly this time?

Thanks

Hi atavares,

yes -, that was the thing I thought about.

Damn - then I have no additional idea atm (except re flashing).

Good luck,

Stephan

Thank you anyway Stephan.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
You should always read the first page. That will contain most everything you need to know. However, given that you already have an sd-ext partition, here is a quick summary:

1. Backup all your apps and data with Titanium

2. Ensure that the TBD V3.7 is on your sd card ready to flash

3. Download the attached recovery zip and extract it to a folder on your PC.

4. Boot your phone into CWM (Option 8 - AD Recovery in Magldr)

5. Select "wipe data/factory reset". Once complete, select "reboot system now".

6. Reboot into Magldr again and select option 5 - USB Flasher

7. Connect your phone to your PC and ensure that it indicates USB

8. Go to the Recovery folder that you unzipped the attached zip file to and run daf.exe. This will create the recovery partition of 7/156/7 which is large enough for your needs.

9. When the phone reboots enter Magldr again and select option 8 - AD Recovery. This will take you to CWM

10. Select "install zip from sdcard"

11. Select "choose zip from sdcard"

12. Scroll down to TBD V3.7 zip on your SD Card and select.

13. Once the installation is complete, select "reboot system now".

Once you have set up your phone, you can recover your apps and data using Titanium. Good luck :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
A lot of colds about this time of the year :D Check your pm. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
Thank you very much for your great help.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
My pleasure. Hitting the thanks button is thanks enough. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atavares:
I did hit the thanks button and followed all your instructions to flash the ROM. New memory values as reported by Titanium:

System ROM: 163MB(11.6MB free)

Internal: 256MB(199MB free)

SD Card: 6.97GB(3.63GB free)

SD Card (a2sd) 1.00GB (383MB free)

Much better now. Tomorrow I'l try Copilot and wil report back. Thanks once again.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Excellent news that you were successful. You now have plenty of memory so hopefully all will work. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
I was under the impression that Dan already integrates tytung's nmea Libs? No need to flash them.

And Dunc, I totally back your opinion on the fix from crypted and also agree on iGO never having had a single GPS drop...

Hi Guys how can i go about removing the Arabic Keyboard which is included with the Rom since I dont need it, Thanks

Fast Rom

this rom is Smoking fast and stable, i do have one problem i restarted the phone and got a UID Message. will try reinstalling the Rom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brush2:
Arabic keyboard

Hi techguy,

since i removed it already two weeks ago, i don't know exactly its name,

but i can tell you the locations where it might been installed:

1.

check if its listed in "Settings" -> "Applications" -> "Manage Applications"

If it's there you can deinstall it there.

2.

If it wasn't there you have to look for its apk file in a file explorer like ES Explorer or Root Explorer.

Its file name should contain something like ..arabic...apk

It might been located either in the folder /sd-ext/data or /sd-ext/sys-parts/app_s folder

You must delete this file.

Now you should check folder /data/data/ for the applications data folder (should also contain the word arabic).

You must delete this folder and its content.

At least after rebooting, all is fine :)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
IIRC Dan has the RPC libs included. He tried NMEA back around 3.0 but switched back because he had a load of comments about gps (which turned out to be nothing btw). Like I said, everybody's setup is going to be different, but I found that combination lately to be the best by far for me and I use GPS a lot :D

Wifi doesnt stay off!!

First of all i like to say thanks for such an excellent rom, never thought the HD2 could run so smoothly with android!!!

The rom is perfect, but at some stage I noticed that when I disconnect wifi after a few seconds it reconnects itself, even if I switch the phone to airplane mode. Has anyone else experienced this and managed to remedy the situation? :confused:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mentalityx:
Sleepless night for me. Been using the new kernel for a little while now. Performance wise my phone is noticeably a little faster. Everything is working still. Phone boots up a touch faster. Good times I say.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] SagaPer:
Haven't had this problem in my phone and can't remember that this has been an issues for the last 3 or 4 releases.

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ----------

The battery drain is no big issue on this rom. Most users reports at least 24 hours battery life before charging. The battery life depends on use of phone; calling, e-mail sync, all other kinds of sync, playing games etc.

My experience is good through several releases of this ROM with everything from 24 hours to 40 hours of battery life.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
I've never ever reached more than 12 hours on this ROM unless I switch off the radio and put it aside and leave it sit in deep sleep. With normal daily use the battery will be down within 5-10 hours, 8 it's pretty normal I'd say.

Sent from my multi talented HD2 ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] lee yun khong:
Yup..u are right. I dont think tbd 3.7 rom able to give us more than 12 hour battery life.

With data switch on, normal short conversation call, browsing facebook and xda premium, maximum able to last six hour only. I have 3 battery..only the original battery able to last till 7 to 8 hours.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SagaPer:
To be able to discuss battery drain we have to report in detail on how our phone is configured and how it is used. I have had several posts on this issue before in this thread. I use stock version of ROM 3.7 and (now) Marc's kernel 0.2.1.

My phone setup is with sync of Exchange mail (manual update), Gmail (manual update), Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Weather etc. Wi-Fi and Mobile data always on. Some use of Bluetooth.

1. A normal business day (24 hours): up to ten phonecalls, up to ten SMS's, use of Bluetooth, check email several times. Battery down to 40% (best 50%).

2. Standby (weekend, 24 hours): mostly standby, maybe a phonecall or SMS, battery drains approx 1 - 1,5% per hour.

3. A combined period of one business day and one weekend day: battery lasts for almost 40 hours.

4. SetCPU: 1152 - 384 - SmartassV2

5. SD Card PNY 16 Gb class 10 - SD Boost set to 1024

6. MyBackup Root runs every day at 7 PM (backup to SD Card)

7. SMS Backup stores all SMS to Google account

8. Google Plus app uploads pictures to Google Plus account

9. Quadrant app benchmark: Total 1003, CPU 2166, Mem 1083, I/O 928, 2D 327, 3D 511.

I think I had exceptional battery drain earlier on when I flashed a new ROM on top of a previous version. Not a recommended procedure...

Have you read previous posts in this thread about Dan's illness and that he has to focus on beiing well again before looking into further ROM development? If not, please do so before demanding chef's development. After all I think this ROM has reached a very high and stable level (for daily use).

Anyway to data2ext???
[HD2 Android NAND Development] theimmortalone:
So here is my issue guys.

I have a TMOUS HD2.

I am trying to install the rom via CLK. So I partioned the Nand to

recovery = 7 MB

misc = 1 MB

boot = 5 MB

system =277 MB

cache =7 MB

And every time I go to install rom from sd card the phone will begin the process, and halfway the the installation process, my phone reboots to the T-Mobile Splash Screen. What am I doing wrong? I really wanna use this rom! :( Same thing happens when I try to do via Magldr too. Please, any help would be appreciated.

Dan is working on it. It was mentioned shortly after the 3.7 release. It'll take a while and Dan's rather occupied. Thanks for being patient.

---------- Post added at 08:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 AM ----------

Have a look in my docs on the possible methods of partitioning your card. You must have done some fault (i.e. not skipped second ext in recovery partitioning). You can only get rid of the second ext by doing a proper repartition.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] alex.odell.2011:
That's a start ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Yes mate. For the exact same reason as other people you where spitting your poison at have lost or messed up their settings.

Its just the way the ROM behaves when there's probs like data corruption from improper shutdowns or power losses or mount drops of the SD or read/write incompatibilities...

Numerous possible reasons. The only way i managed to get rid of all that is by swapping my SD Card to an older class 6 Sandisk.

These things appear to be totally random and you will most likely never figure what caused it as its somewhere deep down in the "guts" of Android Driver base. My main theory still is the SD Card.

It took me quite a while to figure that it's not due to how the ROM is compiled but much rather from bad hardware support.

And, just as a reminder, you still got the Answer to your own question in bold black letters in your Signature.

Well, then mate. Add some pints and it'll make you look smart and beautiful...

Well, no. wrong. that was if the other drinks the beer, right?

[EDIT]

my apologies. i am gettin into an exceedingly bad mood the longer it takes to investigate the illness of my PC and the more clear it becomes that after 4 years of continuous use most likely the "BrainBoard" dies a slow death of multiple organ failure. It looks like the IRQ assignment is badly messed up and not correctable and thus the various chips on board and cards get into diverse conflicts...

gosh i wish i had the cash to just buy a new set of hardware.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Kameirus:
unfortunatly it had to do with the dalvik mover app

everything worked fine till i messed around with it

reinstalled 3.7 themed without touching the dalvik mover afterwards

and now all my tones are available again
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Kam, you might want to try the latest release by Stephan. We tested extensively yesterday and all worked well. Would be great for Stephan to get feedback from a TMOUS user, I'm sure. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Also, mind my saying that these things happen quite randomly and that it took me LONG to figure it got nothing to do with this or that but much more with just the hardware not being perfectly well supported.

I managed to "fix" a lot of this by reinstalling the ROM in the past. I would NOT place a bet on the Dalvik Mover app to be at fault (could be though).

But i just managed to get my X-Fi integrated into the System well again by removing an additional legacy network card, removing all pieces of that messy driver package from creative and then inserting the card back in and letting the ACPI grant a new unused IRQ to the card. Now my system is back online with modified, better pax drivers and you guys will have me sticking around again if the card and board behave now.

Brush2,

you requested the Dalvik Mover being added to the OP. You have gotten Danstas permission to do so.

I have done so, find it under "Tools, Addons and Fixes" at the Bottom of the OP. Are you quite certain that it works well now? After all, what Kameirus has encountered might be anoher bug worth looking into?

Should i place a "Beta" tag on it or just add the Link?

[EDIT]

Nevermind. Just added it "as is" now. Tell me if you need anything changed. I could add it to the FAQ section if this App becomes something that stays on longer and works on more than just this Release. Will look after it tomorrow if you think you could let me know if you want to further support and dev that app.

[/QUOTE]What version of TBD are you using?? What type of install did you do like a clean install or flash over??[/QUOTE]

Thanks for your reply, It was a clean install of the V3.7 Sensation xl Stock. I think maybe i will just flash the rom again. It must be due to something i changed as nobody else seems to have the issue.

DalvikMover

Hi Kameirus, mentalityx, all,

i heard about problems which were possibly cause by DalvikMover.

While developing DalvikMover i noticed this ringtone problem myself once.

But to be honest, i had this problems within last year about 6-7 times - also without DalvikMover.

It's possible a data corruption occurred on reboot after moving dalvik in the early beta version of DalvikMover.

You should try the latest as this does not reboot when moving dalvik to /data.

So as long as i don't know definitely it is caused by DalvikMover there is little i can do.

Meanwhile there are at least 130 installations of DalvikMover -against a sum of 3 similar incidents.

So i just can only suppose this is happing occasionally - until differently stated by more feedback.

I suppose you both are using the TMOUS version with EU install, so let me encourage some TMOUS users with an EU install to test and report back.

Regards, Stephan
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mentalityx:
I'm assuming your using the right Radio correct?? You did a Task29 affirmative??

Also be sure your using the right partition for the ROM.

DalvikMover future

Hi Sneakyghost,

thanks for your work on this. :)

From what i know until now it's a new app and ofc it has to be tested.

Please check my quote on Kameirus and mentalityx feedback as well.

As mentioned, i only see a possible reason on the reboot stuff - but only for the pre v1.12 versions of DalvikMover.

Since then i do reboots exactly like "shutdown menu" in Rom, plus a "sync" and additionally "sleep 3" commands.

Since DalvikMover v1.13 beta does not requires a reboot, an involvement of DalvikMover becomes more unlikely.

I promise to keep an eye on this, since i've planned to keep on developing DalvikMover on this Rom in future as well :)

Yours, Stephan
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mentalityx:
Yes I am not worried about this happening again. First time this has happened since I've been using this ROM. I know why mine happened. While in 4ext I was trying to delete my SD-EXT2. I thought if I format my SD Card it would get rid of it. No sadly its still there after I did that. Then I tried wiping the SD-EXT2 and it's still there. I gave up and Googled searched but found nothing on the subject. I then copied my folders back to my SD card. That's why my ringtones were reset. So it was my goofing around that did it.

None the less still the best ROM I've used on the HD2.
