Hi Robbie and, of course, Craig,

have a look at this post # 1377 how to solve a bricked/unusable phone in general and also as a result of the bug in the Nav bar.

very best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] aleejaved:
thats the problem, it doesnt boot up, after sometime of displaying the grey droid screen, it just reboots, ive tried formatting my card also.

the older version works just fine, and i have a sense rom on my sd card too, but this version isnt booting up :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:
Since this new version has a major bug (see post 2) with regards to the Nav Bar, I would strongly advice not to install this version, untill this is solved. If you still want to do it and it bricks your phone, see this post: # 1377

very best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] berbar:
You can format your SD card with the tool SD format (google it). After that copy your v11 data.ext4 into AOKP32 ICS folder. Then start haret.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:
Hi berbar,

this is the tool: see attachment.

best regards, Kuzibri

New Rom Control

Modified Rom Control for build 32 to avoid the crashing of 'reset navbar' you now have a 'get weather' button instead..

waiting for real fix from Team Kang (credits: Xylograph)

9+1 battery mod ported to build 32 (credits: bezke, Xylograph)

I have taken this from tablet mod pack but it will work on 240dpi
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
Tosti Mod Pack AOKP32 V2 for both versions

Sorry for delay in getting this to you.

This is a modification package for both normal and superRAM versions

Thanks to Xylograph, evilisto, molesarecoming, bezke, Zaphod and Team Kang.

This package fixes the reset navbar bug see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1441462 under AOKP Mods

Same install as usual meta-inf and system into ics/root and reboot.

If you do not want tablet UI just choose your launcher and carry on as usual.

For tablet UI set nova launcher as default and DISABLE navbar in ROM control/navigation bar.

For normal version Set your density to 120 or 128 dpi in Rom Control and reboot

For superRam version Set your density to 120 or 128 dpi by editing /bootsystem/build.prop as described in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23156247&postcount=323 and reboot

Use the modified Nova Launcher and set it's grid to 5x4 small margins for both width and height and persistant search bar on always.

After that change your font size...Go to Settings > Display > Font size > set it to Huge (or Large). Also set auto-rotate in nova settings/behaviour/screen orientation (and in settings/display/)

To go back to normal just change dpi. Or if you really want to go back to stock see attachment (md5=4a1cf5a4180abc01458b8dcaa611e160) but note Xylograph's post...

"Yes the reset nav bar bug will re-appear when going back to default..

Anyway there should be no reason to return to default.. I think the mod makes the rom much better :d

btw it won't brick your phone pushing the 'reset nav bar' button, but it will make your systemUI go in a 'force close' loop..

Zaphod of team AOKP who made most of the cool nav bar customisations posted a work around here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23252-if-your-navbar-is-dissapearing-with-systemui-fc-on-b32/#entry626253 "

To swap between launchers go to settings/apps/all/ either nova or apex launcher, depending on which one you are using/clear defaults then press home button to choose your launcher.

http://www.mediafire.com/?xl6w3htq3dc1grr md5=9de53ed70f22884d730c9d4844906a64

Alternatively, if you just want the reset navbar bug fix with the modified ROM Control see wis1152's post above, thanks wis1152;)

As usual check your ics/root folder is empty after installing anything, so that it does not get re-installed next boot.

No, thanks, I have edited the post to mention it. Some ppl may not want any tablet ui:)

Remember that i post these kernel updates for you to choose whether or not to try them. Do not feel obliged to change, if it is all working fine, great.

So far 6.6a has been good for me YMMV.

Adjusting data file

My data file is 256 Mb and updating my apps by Play Store tells me that there is not enough space left to install. I know that when you use Haret, you can adjust the data file to whatever you want, but this does not work. I adjusted the data file in startup.txt to 512, but after reboot it is still 256 Mb. What to do without reinstalling everything again????

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
Hi Kuzibri, how many apps do you have?

Have you tried to put some on your sd?

There are apps like apps2sd which can transfer them from phone memory. Titanium backup does it too.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:
Thanks Robbie,

will try it. Tried apps2sd and it works flawlesly. Thanks my dear friend!!

Could you tell me where these apps are stored on the SD card????

very best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
I think it is not necessarily where they are stored (they are all on sd) but where they run from, either the RAM or from in your data.ext4.

If you don't have much RAM to start with (because 100mb of system.ext4 is in the RAM in superRAM version) it will quickly fill up.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:
Before applying apps2sd I had 24 Mb free to install apps, now it's 64,9 !!

BTW, my system.ext4 is 219 Mb!!

Thanks and very best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
uAOKP build 32 only

Edit;Do not use these edited build.props in build 33. Use the method at the bottom-easy peasy(since reboot required in normal version too)

For those using superRAM version, who have to use root browsers to edit lcd density, I have attached some edited build.props with different densities.

same install as usual..

meta-inf and system folders to /ics/root and reboot

Don't forget to check if removed from root folder after boot, else you may get android upgrading message next boot;)

md5sums of *lcd density.7z...

120=20f486daeb4532cc22471563960d570b

240=09433f0624aca4fd64d8ab93b505c651

I hope this makes it easier for you to check out the cool tablet ui:D

It is certainly easier than trying to edit build.prop at 120 DIP:D:D

Edit; Re-thinking this last night. Using root browser lite, you could edit your build.prop (in /bootsystem) to say 120dip then save it. The original will be saved as build.prop.bak. then when done with tablet UI, rename build.prop to 120build.prop, and rename build.prop.bak to build.prop, then reboot.:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] arjaylight:
Hi Robbie, i think we could also put this on first page http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23988456&postcount=1
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
Thanks arjaylight.

That fix (24th March) was included in tostidroid v11 (see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24221012&postcount=1802 for changelog, date 30th march). I have noticed an improvement in camera (and recording duration) using 6.6a kernel.
[HD2 Android SD Development] AlexDOS:
Thanks to all who cook this ROM and help to try ICS on HD2.

I need some advise.

I'm use AOKP32 superram edition with DorimanX 6.6a kernel. All works fine, but one thing annoying me - little stuck when programm is starting. Looks like a black screen for 2-5 seconds.

How can I get rid of that delay or make it smaller?

Maybe normal version of AOKP32 will help me?
[HD2 Android SD Development] red_guard:
I think this has sth. to do with the kernel...
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
Do you mean just after boot? Or when you start an app?

I know on boot there is a delay when e-mails are DLed.

There may be small delays on opening apps, possibly due to lack of true hardware acceleration.

Edit; agree, it could be kernel with your hardware compatability problems. Experiment;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] AlexDOS:
With "stock" tytung kernel delay is longer.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
Out of interest, what class SD do you have? Did you format it recently?Any bad sectors?
[HD2 Android SD Development] AlexDOS:
I use SD card class 4; last format is about year ago; don't check card for bad sectors because don't have any issues with other SD ROMs.

Just for information - i don't have any delays in NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.3-CM9-SD V1.5.
[HD2 Android SD Development] taospirit:
hello

i just use the AOKP 31 superram. but now very laggy i don't know why and on every start there is an update of android.

before testing the last build could U tell me what is the smoothest one and if there is always in settings the Rom Control Option , please?

thx
[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:
Hi,

check if the root folder in ICS is empty (no METAINF or system). If this is not empty, this causes these updates.

The smoothest one is IMO "Unofficial AOKP31", the first version with latest Dorimanx 6.c kernel and yes there is the ROM Control option.

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] wis1152:
Make sure your root folder inside the ics folder is empty im guessing it not,now reboot

P.S. Do not be boost about the result of your team yesterday, it will be blown away in Barcelona :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] wis1152:
It's a know issue,devs are working on it,most of these problems are caused by lack of hardware acceleration.

Nice to see you on the thread:-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] taospirit:
thx kuzibri, done now ;).

but i have a lots of messages at start of apps does'nt respond and phone is laggy... any idea please?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
Try rom manager from market (free version) and only use fix permissions.
[HD2 Android SD Development] taospirit:
thx Robbie P, i tried it , but some messages apps appear yet. And now i can't go in softkeys menu in rom control, it force close :(. Like another one when i launch some apps i have black screen during about 5 sec or more before it appears.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
You are another person having delays before apps are opening. I don't have this myself.

I assume you are on aokp31 super, as kuzibri suggested.

Are the apps in phone or sd?

Did you format sd before install?

Did you use the same data.ext4 with all the builds? Try fresh install.

As for fix permissions, it is supposed to cure FCs not create them:). You sometimes have to do fix permissions a few times (the list takes less time to complete)
[HD2 Android SD Development] taospirit:
thx to reply Robbie P, yes i'm on aokp31 superram dorimanx 6.6a.

- hard to respond to where are my apps , of course on sd because of the build, but not move on sd after install (move2sd) if there is what u mean.

- i did'nt format my sd before because i have no pb with another build MIUI.

- and it's the first ics build i try so not an old data.ext4.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
You could try to move some apps to sd.

Also give dorimanx 5.7 a go to see if it improves (I am not saying it is better, but there have been good reports on kernel thread)

I mentioned before about formatting the sd (32 or 64Kb sectors), it is always a good idea to do this, but usually ppl (myself included ) don't bother, until problems arise. You have a problem now, it could be time to try;)

It appears from dorimanx thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1322639 last page or so) that underclocking cpu below 245 has little or no effect on battery saving (Thanks Rick_1995). Awaiting confirmation from dorimanx as to what can be done.
[HD2 Android SD Development] thecharliec:
@ AlexDOS and TaoSpirit.

I also had the same issues when running the SuperRam build. Delays when opening apps, random lockups and occasionally the phone rebooting to pink unicorn. This occurred on both Tytung and Dorimanx kernels (albeit back on 6.4d when I tested it)

Can't offer a resolution to SuperRam, however I can say if you have not tried the Normal build, please do... In relation to SuperRam, the Normal build absolutely flies on my HD2 .. no lags or freeze ups - maybe you will find the same?

I think Kuzibri made a good suggestion with regards to the chipset type of HD2 each of us is using, and possibly even the underlying ROM

I am on an Australian Telstra T9193 hardware with stock WM ROM. Have had no problems with the phone or SD card on other builds, and in fact can still run an old copy of FroyoStone SuperRam, so it has to be something with the combination of hardware / kernel / AOKP ICS SuperRam that our HD2s don't like...

In the meantime give normal a go and see what you find ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
FYI

Unofficial AOKP32 normal downloads=1260

Unofficial AOKP32 SuperRAM downloads=611

It seems you are in the majority;):D
[HD2 Android SD Development] clio94:
Personally i dont know why but superram version is slow,extremelly slow.i am running from magldr and in nand i have wp7

Normal version work really good.Only some times it can take a few seconds to open dialer.Same thing happens also in all nand ics versions i tried.But in sd version takes a little more. If the dialer is allready open it opens fast.Dont know if this issue is because of issue with full hwa or issue with little ram.I am also running zram but dialer closes after some time without using it

Or do you know any trick to keep all the time the dialer on the memory? For now i open it in random moments so it will be open immediatelly for the time i want to call someone

I'm already find :-). I use AOKP31 v2 Normal with tytung kernel for one day and it flies.

Problems with Superram version

Hi guys,

did you all take the time to perform 3 reboots after installing the SR version??

I do not recognize all your mentioned problems with the SR version of the "original" first Unofficial AOKP32 version, even with Dorimanx V6.6c version. I did not try the second version, due to the Nav Bar bug.

[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:

6.6B Dorimanx kernel

Now in post 2:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] thecharliec:
Hi Kuzibri,

I'm sure that reformatting is good advice, though it doesn't explain in my mind why the Normal build runs perfectly where SuperRam lags (you would expect Normal uses the SDCard more than SR). I always Chkdsk /f my SDcard on a PC before installing anything new. Chkdsk would mark off any bad blocks as unusable in the same way a format does.

Yes, performed the 3 reboots. My testing was with AOKP31v2 SR not AOKP32 ... am giving AOKP32 a miss as v2 works so well... waiting for more features in next Xylograph version. Unless anyone here strongly insists AOKP32 is much improved over 31v2?... was mostly bug fixes which don't affect my usage if I recall from the changelog. (Thanks to RobbieP / Wis for keeping us SD campers up to date tho :))

On an unrelated note. Has anyone got the following setting turned on and working:

ROM Control -> Status Bar Settings -> Auto Hide Toggles.

Last time I tried it I lost the whole notification bar and couldn't get it back.
[HD2 Android SD Development] taospirit:
ok i have reformatted my SD and installed AOKP31 v2 with Dorimanx 6.6a and restore my apps... all seems allright no lag for the moment.

trying to run normal, and it freezes on boot up team kang everytime, i tried 6.6b and same thing.
[HD2 Android SD Development] thecharliec:
Hi _fly,

This happened to me the first time.

Here are a few suggestions - may or may not work for you:

- After checking that your Startup.txt all correct, etc, and leaving it for a good 10mins, I did a battery pull and it started fine on second boot.

- Alternatively, if you are splicing in your own 'data.ext4' make sure it is not called data.img, otherwise the build will try to create its own one and fail if there is not enough space on your SD card

- Alternatively, you can try first boot with Tytung Kernel, and splice in DMX after you've had a successful two or three reboots - this helps eliminate whether it is a kernel or some other build configuration issue.

See if any of the above helps.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kuzibri:
you're vey welcome my friend. Now you have noticed how imporant it is to regularly format your SD Card ;)

best regards, Kuzibri

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 PM ----------

I would suggest to format your SD card before installing a new ROM. I do not have any problems using Superram or whatever version, cause I format my SD card each time before installing a new ROM.;)

best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Android SD Development] thecharliec:
Hi Kuzibri,

I don't doubt that formatting is good advice. However I really think there is something about the SuperRam version that is different to Normal - why is it more sensitive than the Normal to SD card format?

Why can I successfully run six other Android builds including a SuperRam Froyo on this same SDCard, yet this SuperRam has problems? - I think there may be something more than just a format in this case.

In any case I have a spare SDCard lying around - will format and re-test SuperRam and feedback.

regards

thecharliec
[HD2 Android SD Development] berbar:
Hi,

from my view I can say that the realy problem is to search at the SD Card. I've tried normal and super with two types of SD Card. In all cases it was the same result. My first SD Card is from HAMA (16 GB, Class 4). When I use this card all is very slow and the device freeze often. My second SD Card ist from Samsung (16 GB, Class 10). Using this card all is running very well. Tested with AOKP31v2 and Dori 6.6b.

Samsung SDHC 16 GB Class 10

24 MB/s (read) 21 MB/s (write)

NAND-Flash, 2,7-3,6V

Best Regards,

berbar
[HD2 Android SD Development] thecharliec:
Hi berbar,

I agree, the type of card you are using can also play a part.

Generally cards that benchmark better for small file (4K) reads and writes perform better - Crystal DiskMark is a great tool for comparing your SDCards and selecting the best one - it's irrelevant whether it is C2, C4, C6, or C10

Some feedback:

I have moved the AOKP31v2 SR build which was lagging, exactly as is data.ext4 and all (did not perform a fresh install) to a freshly formatted Sandisk 16GB C2, and it works - no lags!

However before I am totally convinced, I would need to move the rest of the data which was on my old SDCard - there were many pictures, music, etc ... just to rule out it is not the media scanner or some other process hanging the build when there are a lot of files on the card.

If I get a chance I will then format my original Sandisk 32Gb C4 card and put the SR build back and confirm whether this resolves the issue.
[HD2 Android SD Development] berbar:
This is a good idea. I've about 8 GB music and 2 GB pics on my device.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ribou:
I have two SD cards.

One class 4 and one class 10. With the two, i have problems on Superram, but never with normal version.
