ADW Ex Vs. CM's Trebuchet

Hey Famewolf, I've been using ADWex for some time now and the only feature missing (if you can call it that) is the when you bring up the application draw in Trebuchet, it always has the Android Market icon in the top right, which is really nice, because if you don't have a certain app when looking for it etc, you can just tap on the very conveniently placed Android Market icon to then find it ;)

However, this is about the only plus with CM's Trebuchet when comparred to ADWex (currently), but as this is still early stages of Trebuchet, I can see one day soon, it will overtake ADWex in terms of features and more so, stability due to it being part of the ROM build and not just an app (though it's easy enough to remove it from the ROM install, as I do for now) :)

Two things I totally dislike about ADWex, is the placement of the Trashcan at the top of the screen, as it gets in the way when building up your widgets heavily (causing accidental removal of widgets and icons) and isn't actually necessary as the option to remove a widget pops anyway :rolleyes:

The other is 'Backup desktop configuration' which never works. Even if all apps (that are widgets too) are installed and you restore the desktop configuration, it just places empty widgets everywhere with the typical message within them all, saying their is a problem with it etc :rolleyes:

I've asked the developer a couple of times to include an option to turn the Trashcan off and if they will ever fix the 'Backup desktop configuration', but sadly ignored as usual :(

[HD2 Android NAND Development] ZeroKewl2010:
I have had Tytung's Beta9 and spent the whole day trying to flash the latest and greatest V1.3.

Followed the rulez (researched here in the forums), Task 29, Full reset, Wipe caches, reformatted SD, etc -> no luck, bootloop.

The funny thing is that I also tried the latest MIUI - no luck either.

Any suggestions? (I know this is very basic info, but I am out of ideas..)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Bingoig11:
Which partition layouts did you use?

Try to increase it (even boot partition), it worked on mine ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ZeroKewl2010:
I tried 200/10. HD2 Toolkit 4.2.1, SPL is 2.08.HSPL, Radio 2.15.50.14, MAGLDR 1.13, CWM 5.0.2.6

What values did you use?

I just flashed a stock MIUI GB (final hope) with 150/5 and worked like a charm - ... BUT: I want to go back to ICS

Edit: Just reflashed with 250/10 but still no luck.... :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Bingoig11:
On mine, I edited the flash.cfg in the HD2 Toolkit install folder (located in data\ref)

And on the boot line, I specified 10M

For the rest, using HD2 toolkit I choose 250/10 so you will have, 10M for boot, 250M for system and 10M for cache.

In my case, it worked (and I tried mostly every partitions layout, the only that solved the issue was to increase the boot size) ;)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] VisualOddity:
Few questions, Thanks...

So I used to have an HD2 back when we were dualbooting Android from the SD and getting SOD's. Since then I've been through a bunch of phones (Galaxies, G2x, etc), and a few days ago went back to an HD2. I asked the guy that gave it to me to throw a few ROMs on it (didn't have a laptop at the time), so he did.

I switched from his MUIU (or something like that) to this ROM, although currently I have: build 'NexusHD2-ICS-CM9 v1.1', which is the one he put on the SD for me. When I did the install, basically doing the process from memory, I did a Full Wipe, Cache Partition wipe and Dalvic Cache Wipe, then loaded the zip. Was this correct? So far, it's pretty stable, however, it has rebooted itself like 4-7 times today, I had one instance where it wouldn't wake from sleep at all and one instance where it woke from sleep, but the screen was unresponsive. Any idea why I have these issues, especially it rebooting? Is this fixed by upgrading to the v1.3?

Also, I don't have a laptop at work with me, so could I download and run that update without it (like DL to the phone on the phone)? If I do that, will it wipe my home screen settings? Is it as simple as DL'ing the .zip and applying through recovery? Everything on here having to do with recovery and MAGLDR(?) was here when he sold me the HD2, so aside from going in and applying the .zip, I'm not sure what to do. I wouldn't even know how to replace/edit recovery at this point... lol

Anything else I should know/try?

Thanks... :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] datas0ft:
tytung i understand this is still beta and have bugs. Its normal but i see many users think that this rom is for everyday use and want it NOW. Also i have read all posts and seen many troubles with boot loop. I wrote about this before and try it now again. I had troubles with boot loop too. And i found maybe reason why someone still get it. It depends somehow at system partition size. On v1.2 it was at least 200MB and now with v1.3 it is 180MB.

I made several tests and seen that with v1.2 i got boot loops with system part more 250MB. With v1.3 i cant make system part not more (if i now remember right) 220MB. I can say that every test i made was made with task 29 and with repart and clean install. But still i dont have clue why it this way. Maybe you or someone else know better.

To use this type small partitions you anyway need use some app2sd script.

Itself v1.3 for me right now for everyday use and i'm happy. Existing bugs dont bother me. Even more, i like it because i can now little override old problem about "screen stays off after phone call" described here. Now phone reacts after phone call and screen of to Back or Home button and opens Lockscreen.

Only what makes me unhappy is discontinued AOSP version. I liked it more.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] NYLimited:
Keep in mind that this ROM is still being developed and it may not be suitable for everyone at this moment.

Having said that I think most, if not all of

your questions have been answered in the FAQ and/or the WIKI

. Some people worked very hard to answer those questions.

Go back to the OP and read a little. It'll be like magic! ;)

hi ive installed android 4 on my hd2 and opera and flash. it was writen that its working on andr4 but i cant open nothing with opera or skyfire please help.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
Tytung has already replied in this thread that the nexus hardware is different and doesn't add anything to getting hardware acceleration working on the hd2.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] trex3300:
Tytung then was responding to a question about android 4.0.4, not hardware acceleration. He is aware of TexasIce HW work and I am sure he is looking for a way to make it work on HD2.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
While I understand that the specs between the two phones are very similar don't they have different digitizers, display screens etc? Those factor into true hardware acceleration as well.

You can add them to the ROM zip before flashing it.

Unfortunately, the kernels are different between HD2 and N1.

guys I know this problem been discussed before, and I read the wiki trying to fin an answer, as I also tried all the solutions in the wiki and other part in the forum, but I still have the Wifi problem, my data is pretty good, and most of time is fast.

But when it comes to wifi, it almost not working at all, I thought it's a hardware problem, but It happens sometimes I see some weak wifi signal (even I'm just few feet to the router).

So I winder if any one would help me to fix that problem, by the way I tries other roms (ICS and GB), same problem, is it a partition problem, clk, Radio or anything else?

I guess I'm not the only one having this problem, and a solution will be much appreciated as I do really prefer Wifi over 4G.

thank you guys for the great work.

NB: I checked buld.prop and it says :

ro.product.local.region=US

ro.wifi.channels= *empty*
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
Several days or weeks ago, I had mentioned that I created several kernel branches for ICS development, and now it's a little messy.

I prefer to upload my source when I clear all the messy stuff.

If you cannot wait, I consider tar the current source into a signal file without any git info and upload it to somewhere.

Besides the viewpoint above, I'm kindly reminding you that HTC company didn't release their kernel source immediately after they sold their Android devices in the market.

Thus I think a delay release is acceptable.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tytung:
Maybe change the channel of your WiFi router hardware if you can.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] stifflers:
regarding wifi, i discovered this: i tried to connect my phone to my router too, and it never worked. it was recorgnizing the router, but it never connects to em. there was a message; ip-connecting.... something like this. the strange thing is, it connected to every other router, f.e. my friends. so, i changed my router to another one, and it DIDNT worked again.

then i got a clue: my neighbor is using my router too, with an laptop and an WIFI-STICK. i disconnected him from my network, and guess what!?

IT WORKS NOW!!!

so i think in my case, it is soemthing wifi-stick related. it has nothing to do with the amount of user nor the used channel or everything. only his hardware made my router blocking my phone... dont know why, but its a fact.

maybe this can help you guys with analog problems.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] etibon:
Wi-fi has never worked right on my hd2 on any versionof android. WEP and open networks work fine albeit a bit slow, but connections to WPA networks are very unstable. The connection is invariably successful, but data transfer stops after only a few seconds or minutes. The wifi icon remains visible but frozen. The more data I attempt to transfer, the quicker the connection stops, for eg. I may be able to browse for 2-3 minutes, but a youtube video might not even manage to start.

I tried a very wide variety of routers and settings but I never managed solve the problem.

Yours must be a hardware problem as my hidden WPA connection is fine with all versions of Android and WinMo.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] walts:
I was beginning to think I was the only one experiencing mysterious spontaneous reboots. For weeks I've been trying to figure out what's been causing spontaneous reboots on my HD2. I've been going cross-eyed trying to make sense out of logcat output, been re-flashing ROMS left and right, Task 29, clearing caches, repairing permissions, been working with "bare" ROMS without any apps, then adding apps one by one to try to determine the cause. (In a relatively orderly fashion, with notes, not as willy-nilly as the preceding sentence implies.)

This (proc/last_kmsg) is a new potential source of information. I'm not a linux guru by any means, but I am no stranger to debuggins software. What I am missing here is knowledge of he potential sources of information, e.g. logs which indicate what was running and what it was doing immediately prior to the crash, and any other potential sources of information that might prove useful. Burag, how are you distinguishing between EGL related java crashes and kernel panics? What else should I be looking for, and where?

I'm a retired I.T. director, and I do have a bit of time to devote to this, but it's getting frustrating and is taking too many hours each day. I'd really appreciate it if someone could give me more insight to the process beyond the "folklore" of task 29, clear cache, erase Dalvik....

I'm happy to put forth what effort I can, and to upload files for analysis by others more knowlegable. I'd also be happy to post the history of all the things I've tried over the past few weeks, if anyone wants to read it. Anything to get some stability.

Thanks :)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] isl:
I've encounter this issue too just after installing the ROM 1.2

I've wiped all data, format SD card and so on and reinstalled the ROM and is working.

So sometimes, the dialer could generate again a force close.

I've started the phone in CWM and Wipe Dalvik Cache and do a fix permissions and it's working again. So try this and let me know if it's working for you.:)

Hi,

I also have FC everytime that someone call me, that's a little problem for a phone :)

Here is the logcat :

http://logcat.miui.us/594008

Good luck ;o
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Burag:
Hi Walt.

This is one of my logs from the past: http://logcat.miui.us/563014

Starting from line 16509 there is ongoing EGL crash, which you can recognize by seeing stuff like surfaceflinger, adreno200 egl related libs, etc. died in debug. This is 'soft' reboot, as it only crashes java machine (system booting starts form boot animation).

The 'hard' reboot, called kernel panic, it when Linux kernel really dies, which means that whole system gets rebooted and you are starting from MAGLDR screen. When panic happens, the file /proc/last_kmsg is being created with some debug info just before the system dead.

I hope I've explained this pretty much well.

Please excuse my English, I'm still learning, non-native speaker ;)

stuck on videoplayback

Hi guys, hi tytung

first of all. thx to tytung for your unbelievable rom development. i tried your GB Roms about for a year now and i updated to ICS yesterday. so far everything is working fine. i little stuck on the homescreens when switching. but that is ok for me. the biggest issue i have, is with the videoplayback. and it matters to all players. gallery-player, mx-videoplayer and so on. I'm hearing the sound but the film itself is stuck and shows only picture by picture. does anyone have the same problem? i couldnt find a solution for this.

thx a lot in advance for your help.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Burag:
In MX Player, switch from hardware acceleration to software one. Did the trick for me.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] walts:
I think I'm doing something wrong here. specifically I wanted to try the "old" launcher in place of Trebuchet to see if that would help reduce the spontaneous reboots that have been plaguing me.

I followed your instructions a few pages back:

- Extracted launcher2.apk from /system/app in the AOSP Beta10 zip

- Added that file to /system/app in the CM9 version 1.3 zip and removed Trebuchet.apk

- Zipped the resulting NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V1.3 folder. OSX named it as NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V1.3 2.zip.

- copied that zip to my SD card, cleared cache in CWM and tried to flash as usual:

Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installation aborted.

The error message is rather unhelpful. Is there some additional step that I'm missing? Could it be that the zip routine built into OSX is somehow "different"? If so, what zip program should I use?

Thanks

Walt
[HD2 Android NAND Development] KrewsialNL:
Can't you just open a zip file (without extracting) and delete files from or add files to an archive, without unzipping/zipping it again?

I have no idea how OSX does this, but in Windows and Linux (Ubuntu) (winrar/7zip/windows zip archive) you can open the archive and edit it without extracting it. This makes sure you don't have the issues you're having now. I know, because I tried the same thing like you just did once...failed miserably ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] walts:
Thank you! There is no need to apologize for your English:)

I'm just curious - how did you produce the colored logcat file? I can only do that if I'm connected with adb - but I can't leave the HD2 connected all day! Instead I'm opening a terminal session on the HD2 and

$ su
# logcat -v threadtime -f /sdcard/log.txt

then after the reboot, copying the logcat file to my Mac to view it. Also curious - sometimes the original file seems to survive reboots, that is logcat output shows several "--------- beginning of /dev/log/system" entries, sometimes only one. Also, I can't find a file, /dev/log/system! What is the actual source for logcat?

My HD2 has always rebooted into the current ROM (although it always starts in Magldr). So I'm not sure yet if I'm seeing 'hard' or 'soft' reboots. Here is the last few entries from the last logcat before the most recent reboot. I was reading RSS feeds with gReader, then around 07:37:40 I exited to the launcher and started twitter. The twitter app seems to have had some trouble (it downloads the latest information upon startup). I got the top-level screen from the twitter app, and then the reboot happened. From the log, I tend to blame Trebuchet for the reboot, based on all the "TryAgain" entries, copuled with GC's apparant failure to free up enough memory in the Dalvik cache.

....but maybe it's really the twitter app that failed, although why the app didn't simply FC is beyond me.

See my earlier post - I'm going to try again to get a ROM with the old launcher to flash and see if that helps in any way.

Walt
[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
The site he is uploading the log file to produces the colored output. When uploading your own logs you can use the same site.

On linux the main log file is /var/log/messages..not sure if that exists on android. Again on linux the log files get "trimmed" during daily system maintenance so if you have several reboots shortly after that maintenance you might see all of them in the log until the log is "purged". Hope that points you in the right direction.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Burag:
I'm always trying to reproduce crashes when I came to home, so I can catch all available logs.

BTW. Guys, could you check something? I think that there is bug in Phone app. (I couldn't see any logs, I'm out of home).

First, go to Dialer, and then to Call Log, then back to Phone, and go to Call Log another time. And repeat that many times, system should crash...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] yaro666:

PS

I have traced this thread for long time, but after many same problems with things that are effects of wrong ROM installation, I have had enough.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Burag:
I've reproduced this bug at home. Nothing unusual, as it looks like this is using redrawing which interacts with EGL, so my reboots were just 'normal, expected' behaviour with hacked EGL...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dr_Grip:
No, they don't. What does factor in is that texasice has backported/written the necessary drivers for our hardware to the Nexus One's 2.6.38 (I think) kernel, while the available kernels for the HD2 are 2.6.32 or 2.6.35-based kernels. This means you can't just pull the necessary changes from texasice's git and commit the the the HD2 tree, but that you will have to backport them to our kernel version.

As tytung rightly stated, that's not exactly a trivial task. And I don't think it makes much sense starting it before texasice's code works more or less flawlessly.
