Titanium will restore market settings if you set it to do so, or you can long press on the app and associate/disassociate market from there.

Why not let TB do all the hard work for you? Do a batch and uncheck the ones you might only want later.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Ah, good to know. Now I remember having seen such an option in TB ;) And I didn't know the long-press way at all.

Well I'd rather have a fresh start from a clean slate since my current ROM has seen loads of flashing and testing and customizing.

Once in a while it's not so bad starting over, at least so I see it, it's a good way to check how I installed and configured my HD2 and maybe rethink part of what I did :cool: It's just more effort to put in, of course ;)

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] uzi2:
If you're looking for a fresh start then you have it the wrong way round. Restore apps with TB, but not Data. Restoring apps only will be like installing from market (possibly older version), whereas restoring data could restore existing problems.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] scorpion44:
Thanks for your input.

I like Dorimanx too but so far Tytung R11 gives me the best battery life.

I will give Fikret a go when I get a chance though.

Thanks again.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Obvious ! I anyway am just restoring data for a few apps, where I know I've spent too much time configuring them to my liking, but were working just fine in my previous installation.

Will keep your advice in mind ;)

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Hmmm ... been installing apps the whole evening, and experienced several reboots :( I'm still on stock kernel, but governor SmartAssv2 245MHx - 1.22 GHz.

Anyone having (had) these kind of issues ?

JP.

PS: Removed Apps2SD script and am running Data2SD.

EDIT : I'm running Dorimanx kernel v4.7 now, no reboot so far, seems stabler... for now at least ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Macelangelo77:
I haven't had issues like that, using the built-in a2sd script. I even restored apps+data with TB, without a single hickup. Running fikret 2.16 @ 1,5 Ghz, with Hyper governor.

Sincerely,

Mac
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
1.5GHz, isn't that a bit high ?

I'm on Dorimanx 4.7 nowm seems stabler... for now.

Will go through with my installation and report back how it goes ?

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Ok, almost done, all apps installed and configured ;)

Launcher needs still to be configured (widget & icons), but it's too late now, time to go to bed, work tomorrow :(

Good news, there was not a single reboot since I'm on Dorimanx kernel, but a few glitches happened (app stopped responding, ADW EX hang up, so I started ADW EX from a clean slate...).

So my problems obviously came from the stock kernel.

Noticed one thing, flashlight won't work from the CM7 notifigation toggles, works fine from Widgetoid or Flashlight app.

So far for step 1, tomorrow will be my first real life day on this ROM, wish me luck, I like it so far ! :D

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Macelangelo77:
That's what I mentioned before... Never had a stable phone with Dorimanx at such speed, but with fikret no problem whatsoever. Temp remains below <42 degrees Celcius, no (hot) reboots, no issues with drain. So, if it works great, why shouldn't I :)

---------- Post added at 07:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 AM ----------

I've tried the stock kernel for the first week or so, never had any issues either. Not with ADW Ex, which I use by default. Can't remember whether I used the torch. After a week, I tried Dorimanx, which was a disaster (can't remember which version), so I tried fikret as advised by corrsea. With fikret 2.16, torch is fine, as is the rest :)

Hope you like it!

Sincerely,

Mac
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Absolutely correct, why not if it works, of course ;) Will see how it works out and push mine a little more as well.

Will give fikret a shot, had a GpsLocation wakelock on Dorimanx 4.7 :(

Will keep you posted on my findings ;)

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Hi again,

On fikret kernel my Flashlight app works, but CM notification widget still won't :(

No big deal, just a pitty... would be quite usefull ;)

JP.

EDIT ---------------------------------------------

I'm back on Dorimanx 4.7, it's a lot faster interactively with lower CPU frequency. Let's see how stable it is ;)

JP.

PS: Noticed that I have a different WiFi Mac Address on fikret vs. Dorimanx !?

FIKRET : 00904c5c9d97

Dorimanx : 002376979d5c (which is the same it was on NexusHD2 GB v3.2a)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Maybe off-topic ??

Hi,

One other question, anyone got any advice on what IO scheduler to use for SD-card cache usage ?

I can see :

- noop

- anticipatory

- deadline

- cfq

- slo

- vr

Thanx, JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] corrsea:
I ran into issues with 4.7 on both this and tytungs ROM. Specifically these were bsods and hot reboots. They only started after about a week.

Fikret and hyper governor was best for me. It worked very smoothly at lower frequencies, all the other governors were a bit 'sticky'

Re: wifi Mac address, I've never thought to check this.

@Mac, will let you know if I run into issues with wifi timeout. I have it set to 60 secs. I guess if it does start to play up I'll just have to learn to switch wifi off manually :-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] corrsea:
In order of personal preference, although it may be psychological.

Vr

Noop

Deadline

With cache cranked up to the max

:-)

Gives me write speeds of 7mb on a class 4 SanDisk.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Sounds good, will test vr then ;)

Any of those having more or less potential impact on corrupting the card's filesystem in case of hang/reboot ?

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] corrsea:
supposedly vr is the one most likely to cause issues. I've not experienced any but then I'm not reliant on an sd ext. (unless its the cause of my issues with dorimanx?) Might be better to go with noop or deadline just to be sure. The difference is only minimal at best.

Re speed with Warrens kernel. Its pretty good on nexus one with lag free governor. I've now overclocked to 1.11 (max) and under to 98(min) without any issues so far. To be honest I've not noticed any benefits either.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] corrsea:
@Mac. Re wifi timeout. Yep it just killed my wifi right in the middle of my last post. The phone was not even sleeping. Uninstalled. Drat..

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
OK, I'm giving up on Dorimanx kernels on this ROM for now, was quite stable on NexusHD2, but am getting regular freezes with battery pull and CWM Restore since all apps are FCin on reboot :( :( :(

Now on fikret, @1.22GHz with lagfree governor, to keep the swift feeling I'm now used to with Dorimanx's kernels ;) It will drain more battery, but am having plenty left at the end of the day in the last few weeks, and standby will preserve battery, so I'll give this luxury a go to see if it adds up.

Hopefully I will get this ROM stable, I really like it :)

Gone to noop I/O scheduler, seems the safest in my context (freezes / reboots with sd-ext usage). Might use "Deadline" since it is said not to harm interactiveness so much.

Have also given up on ADW, the loss of icon names (when renamed) after reboot is just a pita, never found a solution to it and since I'm reboot a lot at the moment, it's just too much. ADW even started doing that on my TF101 ... searched a bit and seems a know issue for quite some time now :(

Trying GO Launcher EX, seems more stable (and have been using the GO Dialer EX, GO SMS for very long and been happy with them)... or is there better around ?

JP.

EDIT ------------------------------------

Damn, just rebooted manually, and my /data became corrupt :(

Restoring my CWM backup, will do a titanium backup, start fresh using included APP2SD and restore everything, I think Data2SD is messing up this ROM :(

JP.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] corrsea:
@yank

I've been using go launcher ex since forever, in fact their whole suite of apps except for locker. Have found it to be the most reliable launcher.

When I first came to this ROM it was the version prior to the current one. I installed everything from scratch, both data and apps, then did a straight update when this version came out.

With the apps2sd, data2sd thingy did you remove the original script before flashing your own? I know that revhead did this prior to using darktremors script as he was having some issues with bootloops.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Yep, I removed the script in /etc/init.d, called 10app2sd if I remember well.

I've now tried using that one (stock, wiping all then just flashing the ROM untouched), but it didn't work, my /data just ran full :(

So I recooked myself a new varient (am on Yank555.lu v1.2 already ;)), this time using Amarullz APP2SDX, which works and seems to give better speed than Data2SD ... and ... opposed to most other solutions ()except Data2SD, shows the correct amount of free space in Settings --> Storage :D

Titanium is a little over 50% restoring my backup of PureCM7, looks good except for occasional Market FCs ...

It's almost 3AM here, I've taken my day off from work tomorrow, cause I need to get back to a working phone and last night was short already, so I go through now until it works, than get some rest later today ;)

Will keep you posted ;)

JP.

EDIT : In the meantime, Titanium is done, rebooting AND hoping :D And I'm back in the game :D :D Customizing now, adios ADW, welcome GO Launcher EX !

EDIT 2 : Damn, got a Reboot :( Well some strange kind of, screen froze, then boot animation came up for a few seconds and I was at lockscreen, unlocked, happened again, unlocked and was working after that !?

EDIT 3 : Rebooted to flash a different kernal than stock, and BOOM, APPs all corrupt again :( Seems like any kind of xxx2SD makes problems, for me at least...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yank555:
Ok, I started over again, just flashed the ROM (with AMARULLZ APP2SDX), configured the device (country, gmail account...).

I restarted the phone and landed on a message telling me to wipe my data because it had become corrupt :(

Any of you using sdext to store APPS ?

JP.

EDIt : To check if it is me making a big mistake, I just downloaded Hyperdroid CM7, modded it with APP2SDX, installed, configured, rebooted = fine !?

Rebooted manually 3 times, all fine, nothing corrupted, now Dorimanx'ed it (4.7), booted fine !

Restoring Titanium (everything) from PureCM7 backup to Hyperdroid CM7...

Restored perfectly fine, including CM7 settings, rebooting...

All there woking just fine and fast as expected (or rather hoped :D)

PS: LED Flashlight from CM7 notification widget doesn't work on that ROM either, so that seems to be a CM7 thing...

I have read a few posts that the HTD dev bootloader unlock app on the htc website isn't working for the Amaze. Anyone else having this issue today?

I wasn't able to unlock my new T-mobile US Amaze today. I get blank errors.

The error page says:

Error Code: .

Error Reason: .
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
I was getting this same error but i thought it was because i relocked mine and was unlocking it again. Luckily i found my unlock.bin file from the first time so i was able to re-unlock mine. But yes i got the same error.

I had the same problem. Thank god I found my unlock code as well. For awhile there I was sweating bullets. I guess either HTC is locking down for some reason or the website is just down.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Tardango:
I think this may be happening for other phones as well. It is hopefully just that the unlock program is down for the whole site and they didn't specifically take it off for the Amaze.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zax_Was_Here:
i dont think devs are removing it from their roms, its that sense 3.5 is only on cdma phones as of right now i believe, meaning gsm support is hard to implement on the phones.

i'm no dev, so correct me if i'm wrong on this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
well I'm not so sure. On RCMix 4.0 Energized Blue Edition it seemed like there is some sort of gsm options in the tweeks menu but its very confusing of how it actually works. Also theres no apn settings either.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trkaaa:
the reason that developers don't activate the GSM for Global Phone is as Rmk stated " it ( GSM) could be done but it will disable CDMA Radio permanently " , note also that CDMA is very Complex programming compared to GSM . Developers will then prefer to develop roms for the primary use " which is Verizon CDMA Phone "

first of All , All Sense 3,5 Roms with new Base 1.05 have Partial GSM Capability , it means you will have GSM Signal , and can send and receive Calls , i didn't test messaging . BUT NO MOBILE DATA

to get a Stable GSM Signal you should adjust setting in phone information to GSM Only Mode ( this mode forces 2G only even if 3G is available ) .

to understand the deference between modes in phone information , and which one to choose ( will affects 2G and 3G capability ) read my Post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19894146#post19894146

as long as there is no APN menu inside setting to input your APN , Mobile Data will not work even if you used APK's from the market to input your APN

there is only one Rom Sense 3.5 that has Perfect GSM ( Signal and Mobile data ) , But has some Bugs and one of them is very annoying , and the developer moved to another newer Rom now , this means Bugs stay

i installed a ton of roms and tested them all for GSM , my guess is the nearest that would do that is Virtuous Affinity ( if it could be done ) , because it is the ONLY sense 3.5 new Base 1.05 that Supports the original Global Phone firmware Commands ( EPST , testing mode, Diagnostic mode ) and behaves exactly like it

Virtous Unity 2.39 has a GSM patch and reported working by users who try it

hope that helps
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] devator22:
Newt's incredible sensation has gsm support, I believe. His 3d might as well. Those are both sense 3.0 though. Reason for no gsm on 3.5 is as others have stated, the roms are not from global phones. The devs aren't removing it, it was never there to begin with. Newt has said he will work on gsm soon, but to code it into a cdma rom is difficult and time consuming.

Sent from my mobile typewriter with tapatalk
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trkaaa:
Newt's sensation is the original Verizon Rom mixed with some sense 3 as i remember, and also rmk rom is a rooted De-bloated original rom sense 2.1

Newt 3D gsm is not stable and GSM acts weird for me at least , the above 2 have better Global phone GSM
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
honestly i dont do anything to remove gsm functionality from my roms, but since i use verizon and have no way to test gsm i dont put too much effort into figuring if it works or not in the stuff i do

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
Thanks for the info, see I was not aware of all that. I'm no dev.

I'll confirm Virtuous Unity does work with the patch. I used it for a day. Affinity seems to be showing some life but I tried sms and nothing.

The ics beta has a gsm patch? I would like to know where, I've heard of it but never found it yet.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
I'm not trying to point fingers bud. In fact I like the roms you and tsm put out. It's just a bummer for a tmoblie customer like me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
I got gsm partially working in some of the Sense 3.5 Roms through the help of a couple of people.

Dinc2 on Tmobile

I need to root three new Dinc 2's so they work on Tmobile. I left Verizon because of outrageous bills and ding dong customers service reps. Have tried to get unlock codes by calling Verizon (which HTC suggested) but even though I paid my bill for a year, paid the cancellation fees of almost $700, elevated my request to supervisors, Verizon says they won't give me unlock codes because they won't help me use the phones on a competitors network. Love corporation like this. ITS VERIZON POLICY. My son tried rooting the phone using Revolutionary which failed.

Any suggestions? This thread leads me to believe that there are only buggy roms?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
some of of our sense roms supposedly do work with gsm (its been reported in the threads) i just dont recall which ones
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
Rooting first (after HBoot downgrade from .98 to .97) for S-OFF and installing a custom ROM for one's own specific needs are done in stages, in addition to getting VZW to unlock the GSM sim card lock(s) to use on other carriers.

It's best to request VZW to lookup & provide you with the code to unlock while you are their customer in good standing (for 90 to 180 days, timeframe varied from various posts) and especially helpful using a stock or near stock SENSE rom. It's difficult to impossible once you terminate your CDMA services with big RED, one of the eBay vendor is reported to be able to generate or lookup the code to unlock this device, for a fee (I've used them in the past, but as a last resort, worth looking into.

There is at least two near stock Sense ROM for rooted phone, debloated & optimized for DI2, RMK's Ginger Sense and andyBones Stock 5.x (with the latest OTA changes incorporated + some nice touches added) that should work on unlocked quadbands used by T-Mo & AT&T (probably needed to change APN & browsing/MMS settings, etc.) - I've used RMK's ROM for a little while and it's smooth & stable, not buggy at all (probably less prone to problems with big Red's own releases, LOL)

Owning 2 rooted DI2 in black & red, one with stock kernel and 2nd. one with OC kernel option, my preferred ROM is SR's Zeus V1.3 on their website (Google for it) CS's Sabotage Sense ROM is based on stock with nice touches, and both reported to work on GSM - all 4 of them (and there are several others out there) will work on voice & SMS, broadband data access will be a little more challenging depending on your mobile carrier's frequncy & radio towers. The DI2 unlocked is likely to give 2.5/3G speed vs. 3.5G (so called T-Mobile 4G speed) unless you can work with their tech. support to configure & setup your data plan to optimize their network handshaking with your device - changing the APN and MMS settings are probably hidden/buried (hopefully not locked.)

My previously unlocked global VZW phones used GSM bands mainly for voice calls, occassional SMS and web browing on the go, but use WiFi whenever possible with default to mobile internet as a backup. As several developers mentioned, it's a challenge for them to test/verify GSM functionality so when possible, it's up to us to beta and report back so that they can try to address the issues.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
I downgraded to 2.3.3 then used revolutionary to get s-off & root.

Then booted to recovery and started flashing new roms.

As far as GSM roms go, I've been doing my best poking around to see what answers I can get on this.

So far SkyraiderZeus, and Virtuous Unity w/ GSM patch seem to be a couple of the best custom ones with Sense.

As far as stock roms go, andyBONESTOCK and rmk Gingersense are the best, rock solid roms, but duh they're stock.

The Merry Christmas ICS build has GSM as well but the camera still doesn't work yet.

I got GSM to work for calling on most if not the Sense 3.5 roms by going to phone information in the tweeks menu or by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and changing the network mode to GSM only and rebooting, still no SMS or data yet but I'm still trying to get that fixed at least for SMS.

If anyone knows how to fix this please say something. Then at least the REALLY important parts will work (calling&SMS)

GingerBang Vanilla, TSM poolparty 1.6, and CM7 are good ones if you don't want Sense.

I'm using the Skyraider 1.3 on my Incredible 2 and it's working great here during my vacation in the Philippines (GSM Network). I got the unlock code a while back from Verizon, and basically flopped in a SIM, and set the PHONE's to preferred network to GSM / UMTS.

Only problem was DATA, couldn't use it until I added the Globe's APN manually - setting the "APN", the "MCC", and the "MNC" using the free app "APN MANAGER" did the trick.

The connectivity icons change from "G" (GPRS?), "E" (EDGE), "3G", and "H" (HSPA?) depending on where i'm at..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
Yes I forgot to mention. If you aren't using verizons network you have to configure the apn settings manually.

I am a tmobile customer so i have to do this all the time, so i didnt think about it.
