Eddy, something to remember for next time is that dalvik can only be deleted through RCMix3D Tweaks as it resides on SD Card. You can delete both cache and dalvik cache then reboot and install whatever after this. ;)

v3.4 Stock -> v3.5 Stock

Hi guys!

I have decided to update from v3.4 Stock to v3.5 Stock, although I was 100% satisfied with v3.4. I just wanted to try out swap instead of zram (although some previous versions were advertised as "flying with zram").I couldn't imagine how can swap can be better than zram ...

I have taken my older 8GB Kingston Class 4 SD Card and I thought I give it a try, since Dan doesn't recommend a class 10 card. Unfortunately the outcome was dissapointing: the ROM ended up to be laggy, sluggish, I couldn't enjoy it. :(

So I went back to my 8GB Kingmax Class 10 SD Card and started over from scratch (Task29). The outcome was as I have expected: the ROM performs much better, really no lags, high responsiveness.

I know(?) that I will be experiencing some other issues because of the class 10 card, but I would rather live with that, instead of having a laggy ROM.

The next step was to disable zram and enable swap: the updater script that Dan has posted works, swap usage is displayed in Terminal Emulator (free).

My first oppinion is that the ROM is a tiny little bit slower with swap than it was with zram (BUT: this could also be an illusion of my mind, because I've always thought of zram as something better than swap; and I still tend to believe that after reading the wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZRam).

But hey, I am just an ordinary user and I will always trust what the devs are saying and doing. If they say that swap is better than zram, then I will use swap from now on.

I would also do some more zram/swap testing. Would it be possible to post a zip that turns zram back on and swap off?

On wifi

Using the 3.5 Stock with swap enabled. Wifi seems to be broken for me as it would not detect my home network. It will detect other networks but will have poor signal. I tried manually adding my network in both the settings screen and the wpa_supplicant file. Tried reinstalling 4 or 5 times already. Issue was also present in 3.4 stock. Works on other Runnymede roms like dungphp's and CM7 and CM9 roms. Sucks really bad, I really like the rom. Fastest runnymede rom i've tried.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] eddyedwards007:
Thanks Sandy,

So even though it gives the option in recovery, it doesn't really wipe it :confused:

I would like to install this rom 277m of the configuration,how do it?Because the upgrade process is not the opportunity to choose

---------- Post added at 01:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 PM ----------

Installed on the sd card the card demanding，Some app such as input method can not run，

Of course, the space problem can be improved by the deletion of part of the program[/QUOTE]

Sorry mate you are wrong and the only reason the keyboard app you are trying to install is that you may need to get the lib from the apk and manually install it to the lib folder in the system folder!Deleting anything from the rom will not help![/QUOTE]

I know you said the keyboard program, the old version before it will be transplanted into，However, the latest version (in Chinese)Always error，Back to the root of the problem，What I mean is like the previous version v_2.7 rom,The first time the program install in NAND(SYSTEM APP),After the procedure install to sd ext（USER APP）,i can do that？

（I am sorry that the poor English is difficult to express what I mean，To rely on goolgle translation）
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Old story :D

Carl made a zip to clean the dalvik ages ago. it's on the thread multiple times. You can flash it like any other zip. I am still hoping that the recovery will recognize the dalvik on ext one day...

Sent from my TBD Runny 3.5 themed
[HD2 Android NAND Development] eddyedwards007:
No would have sufficed sneaky ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Kameirus:
ok im back after a 3 day hospital stay

still doped up so wont be on much
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pandamaci:
Seems like it was fixed in v3.5:

if [ -e /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 ]

then

rm -R /sd-ext/dalvik-cache

else

rm -R /data/dalvik-cache

fi

EDIT: Sorry, I have just realised that you worte "in recovery". These lines are for something else ... probably RCMix ...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Correct :D

Easier just to use RCMix Tweaks before shutting down phone - that's why the options are there lol (couldn't resist it, Sneaky) :D

[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Yep. No need to worry. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Since i like dishing it out i have to take it too sometimes...

No for real mate, i think that zip is quite handy as i hardly ever want to boot the full android just to wipe the cache when i am about to flash things and stuff. I like having that option when in recovery. And for that, it is a perfect workaround. Zip attached for your convenience. Credits go to carl...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] chrisrj28:
I'm going to do a fresh flash and see what I have to start with as I should be close to what you have.

Yeah Most other Sense roms install system apps to that partition leaving data for user apps mainly. But every chef has their preferences so I'm assuming this setup works best for this rom.

Yes sir I do indeed have t-mobile and flashed the appropriate rom, Im just going to edit the app_s folder and get rid of what I don't need to free up space.

But I do indeed do a clean install as I had to flash the appropriate recovery to change from Energyrom to here.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Gabriel51:
Only thing I can say about that is the EU version is different, however if you changed the kernel, not all of them support that low a level or that high of a high.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Proz00:
thx for reply

i tried the bt didnt fix the quailty of the sound [ music playing]

and wifi got error
[HD2 Android NAND Development] chrisrj28:
Hm, so on a clean install with all widgets and apps I don't use removed I start with 239mb.

@Zahurtex are you TMOUS or EUR user? Just wondering how you got the space like that.

Dang, so after all my apps auto install after flashing I get low storage again. I suppose I will have to do a2sd to use this rom, kind of sucks as I was trying to avoid that.

Yeah I changed the kernal

Hi! got 2 questions!

First one, I flash 1.2 EU to my brother hd2 and had kernel problem, test it all but got problems. if it had data, no wifi and viceversa, no bt or have to restart to have wifi or data, etc... I wanna know if I can flash clk kernel to malgrd :confused: Any help will be appreciate, thx.

Second one I had 1.1 installed on my hd2. I dont know how i got this lock screen, I like to upgrade to 1.2 coz looks awesome, also waiting for the bliss mode and theme, but I dont wanna lose that lock screen style, what i do?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Gabriel51:
It's a wonder anything works, it looks like you flashed everything including the kitchen sink.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] chrisrj28:
Thanks Dan & Carl

Been using this rom all day and I am very happy with it, fast and stable so far. I like the OC you have built in, seems more responsive than using an OC app.

I also love Sense 3.5, that's one of the biggest selling points for me. My one issue is just regarding the space available. I may just have to use a2sd on the next release as I don't want to give this rom up.

Thanks again guys

Bluetooth issues

I had a fight with my phone to get bluetooth to work in my Chevy Traverse. We went a few rounds, but I finally won. :D It still doesn't like to connect unless 'discoverable' was clicked every time. It would stay connected after, but was only good once. If I left the car (with bluetooth still enabled) then came back later it wouldn't connect that second time without a reboot.

Long story short: I flashed Raf 1.9 OC and no issues at all. Works perfect.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Gabriel51:
Yea, the only one I loaded was an mp3 and it works, what file are you using?

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
I wanted to tell you guys a story i had these days. Odd stuff.

I bought this used HD2, carrying a blank gingerbread ROM with nothing on it, no personal Data, Magloader and (here it begins to be weird) no HSPL.

Then i inserted my SIM to check the basic functionality of the phone, i checked it with MTTY before i handed over the money (yeah i learned my lesson here too).

Everything seemed to be clean and good.

At home, i wiped it all with MTTY, then i flashed the TBD ROM. Then i set it up, then i wanted to test some stuff and wiped it again. This time i killed it all. including Radio, Splash etc. I also played around with a new MTTY task i just discovered inside the RUU from the latest WinMO release. A Task i hadn't sen before. It wiped the SPL section (backed it up first, then restored it). Either that bricked the Phone or the dude before me did the brick already. However, up to that stage i didn't notice it.

Now, after all has been fixed with JTAG, windows mobile was flashed again. Also HSPL. I also killed all possible Data using MTTY with Task 28, 29 and 32. The Phone MUST have been clean after all this.

Still, i did a format with the Recovery once it was flashed. I formatted all partitions.

Also, i killed and re-did my SD-Card. Did formatting inbetween, filling it with zeroes.

Two things that irritate me: its been a vodafone device and even though HSPL disabled CID check it still refuses to install Navigon Select on Android as that only runs with CID's from Providers that originally bundled it with their phones.

The CID stayed even though the phone was JTAGged!

The second thing is i had 3 odd contacts in Whatsapp. It drew them from the phone somewhere. I texted one chick asking who she was and after much back and forth it turns out she's a friend of the guy who sold his HD2 to me.

This after all this cleaning! Where the hell did Whatsapp get the numbers of his friends from????

I begin to seriously doubt that all those cleaning methods do a full job. There must be a fault in there somewhere.

Hi mate. A quick question. What is the purpose of clearing dalvik cache?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nick_d:
anybody else had activesync issues with credential storage?

first off - dansta, awesome ROM (and nice to see another aussie on xda too :P).

my only question is in terms of the mail app - on other roms haven't had any issues connecting to my work email but on this one i go through the usual activesync process, allow remote wipe etc, but then i get a pop up telling me i need to set up my password for credential storage (something i've never had to do before) and even after doing that still no love on finishing the set up (i then get a msg saying the settings are incompatible with those on the server, and when i click Detail it says "policy setting incompatible: device encryption enabled".

any ideas? work email for me is a deal breaker on this phone and i'm not a fan of moxier etc so i'm hoping i can find a workaround to get this sorted on the native app...

cheers,

nick

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Hi Liehuo,

kindly refer to wikipedia to get an Idea about Dalvik cache. It is vital for Android to function, it contains all Applications unpacked from their zipped apk-state, unpacked for the Dalvik virtual machine ready to execute them.

If you do not delete the Dalvik cache after changing things involving apps, it might do a mess-up from old setup data and new setup data. So for many steps you do it is a good idea to clean the Dalvik Cache and let the phone rebuilt it from scratch.

Hi, I have been using v 3.5 stock for a while and i have completely no problem with it. Everything works fine and I get no FC nor slowdowns or reboots so far.

But i have a question, is there a way to lower income volume a little bit ?. When someone calls me I have to keep my phone on distance because it's so loud. I've set it to lowest possible setting but it's still not enough.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SagaPer:
Settings, RCMix3D Tweaks, System, Extra commands, Disable Xloud. Reboot.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zboq:
Thanks, I'm aware about this option but maybe I wasn't clear enough. What I want is to lower down only how loud i can hear someone talking to me over the phone, not ringtones or sounds. If I disable Xloud i understand that it would lower down all sounds in the system ??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
I have talked with Dan about this weird circumstance a lot as Dan has the opinion that XLOUd only increases the Vol Max, not the Min. He says, it should be possible to decrease volume in tiny steps until barely audible like it normally would.

I say, this is not working and the Min Volume is very high and the lowest stepping doesnt work, small steps only begin around 30% volume.

In Fact, it worked once, i think on 3.4 i had it working like Dan said with small steps right from 0 and up. But on 3.5 Themed now it won't do it again.

So this issue is recognized but Dan cant reproduce it as it is working for him, or was the last time we spoke about it.

The Command to disable XLOUD was integrated into the ROM to solve just this Issue.

Now you are going a step further in asking for a real fix. That is something else. Dan will have to comment on that. Until then, disabling XLOUD is your only solution.

[EDIT]

The Donor-Listing has been redone. Everyone who donated can have a look if he's there. I might have missed people, if i did let me or dan know. I will add that name then asap.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zboq:
Thank You for clarification. I'm going to disable Xloud for a time being.

4EXT Recovery

Hello,

I want to install your 4EXT recovery but the MultiUpload links in the OP don't seem to be working for me (and for a few others whom I asked to check then for me).

Can you (or anyone else) please provide mirrors for those?

I have a European HD2 (LEO512) and am using cLK. The appropriate recovery.img file will do.

Many thanks in advance.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
Hi mate, i have Recovery versions in my mediafire folder down in my sig.

Please refer to them. The newest Recovery has "new" in its file name.

To adjust the Partition Sizes according to your needs just open the file "flash.cfg" and edit it.

A more detailed instruction you can also find in my signature, TBD Documents. There you will find instructions on how to edit that file and do various stuff.

Thank you.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SagaPer:
First: I am extremely happy with this version regarding speed, stability and battery life. A few days ago I made a new install with full wipe of phone, flashed Recovery 2.2.7, formatted SD card (PNY 16Gb) with EXT4 1024Mb and 256Mb swap partition. Restored full backup of stock ROM version 3.5 via Recovery. Checked through Terminal Emulator that the swap partition was active (su, free). After one day of use the speed seems to increase a little. Feels very good to use. Fast (much faster than with zram in use).

Battery life: Left my phone by the bed Sunday at 11 PM: 89% battery. No charger connected through the night. Monday morning at 8 AM: 80% battery left. Used phone all Monday (lots of calls, some SMS's, Wi-Fi on, Bt on, Email sync on). At 6 PM: 41% battery left.

NB: This is not a post bragging about battery life. It's just a fact report from a very happy user.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] HQRaja:
Thanks a lot mate :) I found the recovery there in HD2 Stuff / Android / CWM Layouts. I just want to confirm if both the EXT4R v2.2.7 ported & moded by Dansta34 for TBD_new.rar and EXT4R v2.2.7_Partition_7_172_7.rar files are the same version of the recovery i.e. use the same recovery.img?

I use cLK and manage partitions myself from cLK's own features, so I only need recovery.img, which I can get from any of these zips, so just wanna confirm if they are the same and latest...if they are different, please tell me which one is the latest so that I would use that one.

Many thanks for the quick reply. I have added your HD2 Stuff Mediafire link to my bookmarks. =)

EDIT: Pardon me for being totally blind and not reading the part in your post where you mentioned that the latest recovery is the one with 'new' in the name. My apologies.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
The latest is the one with the "new" in its filename. It basically is the same as the other one you mentioned but it has more stock looks and i think dansta adjusted a few things in the porting to make it a little faster. So they are supposed to be pretty much the same but rather go for the "new" one.

It has the latest 4EXT recovery Image available for the HD2 i think.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] HQRaja:
I feel stupid and totally blind for not reading that part in your post. My apologies, and many thanks again. =)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sneakyghost:
You did nothing wrong. I only mentioned "new" in the first post but didnt give much hint on which one to choose. Only when you asked what you should go for i posted the explanation.

Nothing to apologize for but thanks anyhow :D
