about voice

hi guys. i have a noob question. I want the option to enable speech-to-text on the keyboard but not how. Anyone know how? I download from gplay speech-search and does not look like versions of ICS. Is the density of the screen? Thnxs

Added a few thoughts / questions to your post... and NOT to challenge you, fwiw...

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 PM ----------

Which mode are you using? Phone? Hybrid? or Tablet?

Which Kernel? (I assume Dorimanx) and if so, which Governor?

...using Rom Toolbox (or something similar), what are the Sysctrl main settings? Which I/O scheduler is in use?

I boot Haret and use a WinMo 6.5 Rom, so am not familiar with Windows Phone 7 & Magldr... Do you have WindowsPhone7 radios, data, wifi turned-off, prior to loading Android? - Just a thought. Sorry, I can't be more helpful.
[HD2 Android SD Development] wis1152:
Dorimanx hwa 7.2 kernel has been released:-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] c1cl0n:
Is it support PA ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] wis1152:
Should be fine on your PA,cm9 and Robbies ICTD
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
You're pointing to a completely different Kernel. They're not the same.

(sorry if I jumped the gun. the new 7.2 HWA release isn't the same as the ultra-ics 7.2) I thought you weren't distinguishing between them. My bad. :o

the best ics sd build for now, thanks all devs for your work.

the only problem I have for now is "unexpected stops" of system apps.

after first app stop any system app stops then as well till reboot.

apk installer stops as well after that

magldr, default kernel

LCD Density?

Hi thanks for this new rom WIS.

I have a little pb with density, in startup I have density=240 but when I start density is too small maybe 160, a lot of space is loose for nothing and for me it's inusable!

The rom seems very fast but with this density It's like Iphone and not for me!

Soi maybe there's a solution to change density please?

Thanks for your hard work.

Ans second issue, WIFI doesn't work like other ICS rom for special carrier, I need es explorer to run WIFIX for special carrier like in Africa and there'is no explorer in this rom so no slution for me....

hi wis, guys,

always nice to see a new rom:)..just started to download.

i m new to android and never used android phone or tablet.

could someone pls explain the advantage of using a tablet mode in the phone?

other than the novel experience is there any other benefits?

thanks. and good work wis :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] dimdimdim:
it's just about density and ui organizing: menus and elements are split to show more on a larger screen. another difference - status bar is in the bottom.

and for me, performance of the build is much (what I can feel, not to benchmark) better than other ICS builds here.

oh, and BTW - REALLY GOOD BATTERY LIFE!
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
thanks.

i too feel that the rom is faster and more stable than other ics roms i ve used.

like the bottom status bar too. and battery life is a plus for me:)...still checking out.

and pls tell me in basic language the use of changing density? just improves how something looks, right?

what are the uses of general dpi, default user dpi, default system ui dpi, general dpi? ....needs some explanation. :)

Tablet mode 200dpi?

Hi, i want to use the tablet mode but it defaults to 120 dpi, which is too small. When i try to change the general density to 200 (or any other number), the phone reboots and 200 dpi is enabled, but the tablet characteristics disappear (status bar reverts to the top; settings menu, gmail etc do not appear in split view mode).

Is there a way to use and keep tablet mode, while applying a custom dpi. I tried all other options, using hybrid settings, setting various dpis to the general settings, system settings, ui settings etc but all of them revert to phone mode and the tablet characteristics disappear.
[HD2 Android SD Development] enigma1nz:
After a few smooth days running v1.1 in phone mode I am experiencing quite a few FC and general closures and failed apps, in particular e-mails, when attempting to scroll to read the rest of the body and newspaper apps when opening articles. Today album and a few others joined the failed to work list. Rebooting doesn't help and at this point it's a guessing game whether something will work after opening. Anyone else it's happening to and will v1.1a solve it? Should I reinstall?

---------- Post added at 05:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

Same here. I just gave up on any other option and use phone mode.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
have the same issue. i couldnt get the tablet mode to work either.

i have v1.1a installed. had to change kernel to tytung 2.3 unimac, because for some reason i cant open the sd card with dorimanx. however my experience with PA v1.1a is not that good. its quite laggy and cant get the tablet mode working.

therfore i havent been using it much. previously v1 worked quite well for several days before it became laggy and unresponsive.

i m too busy these days and had no time to experiment much. so went back to my GB rom. thought it was only in my phone, but, seems like others have issues too.
[HD2 Android SD Development] enigma1nz:
Tested v1.1a - same thing: 'Unfortunately XYZ has stopped'. Gallery affected indefinitely, others intermittently as far as I can see at the moment, but happened more than once for the ROM to be considered stable in my eyes. Any solution would be greatly appreciated. TIA.
[HD2 Android SD Development] geopa:
the same from me , gallery is out of order constantly (i use quick pic instead ), other apps in random order give me "cannot open " or similar issues , while the v1.0 was pretty good on that . I'm a haret user.

Backup data and app drawer

I read on an how to post that we should back up the data file incase we have any trouble shooting, only problem is i cant find a post which tells me how to do this, i want to back up the file to my computer so if i make a mistake and install something that i shouldnt have i can revert to my settings as they are now, can somebody please explain how to do this and will this file if replaced back in revert everything to how they are now

Also i updated my nova settings the other day as they was a waiting update and now in my app drawer it only has 3 collums where as i used to be able to have 4, is this just how things are now or can i changed something to get my app drawer icons smaller, thanks in advance

Im a noob by the way so great detail is appreciated.
[HD2 Android SD Development] enigma1nz:
I have a copy of my data.ext4 file saved on my computer and just keep it updated every few days or before any major ROM changes by copying one off my phone and replacing the one I have on my computer. Basically, data.ext4 is where everything is kept, just connect your phone or memory card and copy/paste the file inside your Android (ICS, Droid or whatever you have it called) folder.

Drawer grid arrangement can be changed and no, it's not how it is now.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jd85jd:
Thanks for your fast reply, ill do that data file copy right now thats the answer i was looking for i thought that might be the way, so do you know how to change the app drawer thanks again
[HD2 Android SD Development] enigma1nz:
I am not sure how you ended up with 3X drawer grid, but if your drawer icons are as big as you say, perhaps it has to do with global density? The default for mine is 240. Try that and see if it changes the look of your app drawer.

I used to dualboot wm6.5 HTC HD2 and American android if you can tell me how to install the tutorial step by step. I tried several times but again without success. many thanks.......:confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
have you tried the nova settings? as i remember there should be the option to choose no of columns and rows. (i could be mistaken, cant check at the moment)

also you can try changing the per app density to change the size of icons.

settings>paranoid settings>hybrid mode>list apps>all> nova

now try changing per app density.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dimdimdim:
try to limit processes to 2 instead of standard limit in developer options
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
you mean you ran ACA using haret? if so its the same procedure.

download, unzip, put the droid folder to root of sd card, run clcrd and haret.

---------- Post added at 08:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------

did you try changing the kernel? i could never use the gallery or the sd card while using the dorimanx. but tytung kernels were fine.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jd85jd:
kanishkapd

the rows and colums refer to the desktop icons, doesnt effect the app drawer, very greatful for help tho, in nova settings the only option to change is the dpi, what should i set that to

enigma

I tried to change the per app density it asked for superuser permission i allowed it, it then said i need to reboot phone, so i did and now it has put my phone in phone mode as apose to tablet mode, so i changed to tablet mode and it asked to reboot again so i did and now when i check my density its back at 120 (LDPI) it does change the size of the apps but id prefer to stay in tablet mode, do you run phone mode ? thanks for your help also

---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 PM ----------

PROBLEM SOLVED

I changed the DPI to 140 in nova settings and now its back to the 4 app style drawer, i clicked thanks on both of you for your kind help, many thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] HTCHD2V:
200 dpi is too big for tablet UI. As far as I understood, max dpi for tablet UI = 128 dpi
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
hi

oh..i see.

changing the general dpi will usually bring you to phone mode. dont fiddle with that much. what you have to change is one of the dpi options you find below general dpi. (in the settings>paranoid settings>hybrid mode screen, i mean)

also visit the parent thread by xylograph, the link is in first page. there also was some useful info as i remember.

i maybe bit wrong in some of the finer details...sorry about it, but, cant check as i m not running PA right now.

hope you find what you need. :) also i guess its much more smoother if you opt for the magldr method.

regards.

EDIT: good..you worked it out. enjoy.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jd85jd:
I solved the problem changing the DPI in nova settings to 140 as you suggested, thank you much appreciated
[HD2 Android SD Development] HTCHD2V:
Seems Gallery does not like 240 dpi (which is default). Try to lower density (I use 239 dpi :))
[HD2 Android SD Development] Tzatlacael:
Gallery does force closes opening certain images or photos, probably due to the screen density combined with the size of large pictures. I downloaded Gallery ICS from the market and it's just like the stock and does not force closes.

I've been using this build for a couple days already, using Hybrid and Tablet mode, SmartAss v2, also seemed not to need Automatic Task Killer or Task Manager but I'm using it to avoid run out memory.

I experienced some freeze up, but it's completely tolerable, since it's fast and I don't have as many data drips as with other roms ....

All this after applying Tytung R3 kernel (posted a couple pages behind)

Gotta like that Browser!

So far excellent work!

Many thanks developers!!!!!

Tytung r2.5 hwa kernel

Need help from haret users:)Did Tytung r2.5 hwa kernel work for you guys/girls?
[HD2 Android SD Development] HTCHD2V:
Yes, I used it about 10-15 hours, but it is laggy on Hybrid mode (global density=120) and reverted to Dorimanx 6.9.

Edit: Any news about Dorimanx 7.2 HWA for haret users?
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Agree with HTCHD2V... r2.5 slowed things down for me also. DM v6.9 super responsive (lowest standby drain I got was 7-8-9mAH). DM 7.2 HWA - YOU KNOW; a disaster... switched to Tytung r3 :surprised: very responsive (lowest standby drain - airplane mode - 4-5mAH).

Dm's HWA 7.2 supposedly is tuned (gov & I/O) for faster performance (Hyper gov), and also lower/better standby drain. Every kernel 'worked' except, you know.
[HD2 Android SD Development] wis1152:
So tytung r3 kernel is also working for haret users:-) that good news for me:-) i can now post new miui ics Rom:-)

[HD2 Android SD Development] ribou:
For me, with Haret, and in tablet mode, battery drain with Dorimanx 6.9 HWA is about 5 ma, often 4 ma.

For me, it is the best result
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Those #'s are better than I was able to get with that kernel, as much as I liked using it. The new 7.2 HWA promised to be better still, in every way (lol) just not (yet) for Haret users. Thought I'd try Tytung's r3 before going back to DM 6.9... and this is the best standby drain I've gotten with any ics build. Don't think I'll be changing it for a while. :)

Same problem here...Gmail when attempting to scroll to read and Pulse when i do

I changed to tytung kernel, but PA becomes laggy. (On my experience, Tytung

kernel it's really good, but have problem with camera apps.). So im putting back

dorimanx kernel because goes like a airplane.

Just i have to wait and see if the FC can be solved by anyone who really knows

1.1a lock up problem

I am continuing to have the lock up problem where the phone does not wake up from sleep.

I have tried numerous combinations of settings for paranod, developer and performance settings to no avail.

As much as I love this build, I cannot have a phone that locks up when it is in my pocket several times a day.

I will be switching to either Tytung's SD version of his ICS port or the portadroid port.

Any last ideas would be greatly appreciated.

thanks everyone for your hlep.

[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Ok... my final attempt to help. :) This build is really working well for me. (booting haret)... Tytung's HWA r3 works well, best battery standby drain! - BUT I have to say Dorimanx's v6.9 is still faster & more responsive on my HD2, not by a lot, but by enough..

Settings > Performance > Processor - My suggestions to you... Use System Settings

NOT

an add-on utility (like SetCPU), and IF you use DM's kernel; Set the Governor to Hyper - you can if you like, overclock by 10%, no more... min 245, max 1036 or 1075: MAX! If using Tytung's kernel, set Governor to SmartassV2.

Settings > Performance > Memory management

:

zRam (default 18% or off) - I use default

Allow purging of assets - enabled

Kernel samepage merging - your choice (mine is enabled)

Settings > Developer options

:

Force GPU rendering - No, don't use

Window animation scale - .5x (that's double speed)

Transition animation scale - .5x

Background process limit - standard (some folks limit, I don't)

Show all ANRs - (not necessary, but I like to see) - enabled

Nothing else enabled on this page, except for Android debugging (if you use it) and allow mock locations (if you need it)

(of course allow Root access)

Download this app... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rs.autokiller&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5ycy5hdXRva2lsbGVyIl0. It works a trick!

Autokiller Memory Optimizer

: Run it... it may take a moment to gain root access, if at first non-responsive... just close and restart; It'll run.

Go to Tweaks & Tools:

(settings)...

Apply on boot - enabled

2 min delay - disabled

SD card (read ahead) - enabled

I/O scheduler - Tweak cfq io -

if Tytung's kernel - Yes

|

if Dorimanx's kernel - No

Memory management Additional tweaks - enabled

Scheduler - Tweak kernel scheduler for less aggressive settings - No

Battery - up to you, mine is enabled

*** Sleeper - Disable normalized sleeper - ENABLED ***

This is important for you

.

The last three tweaks on the page are up to you - mine are all enabled.

Download this app... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.pmw&feature=search_result

System Tuner 3c

: Run it... Go to SysCtl (settings)... select Recommended at the bottom of the page. Play with this app later if you want... Not now. Power off. Reboot On.

If (ever) changing kernels...best to reboot at least twice.

I'm running Hybrid (not tablet) mode... Global Density at 182 dpi. User's Density at the same... some apps @200, launchers @220, most else @default. For an ICS build - I find this pretty fast & responsive. Wake-up & screen turnoff and back on is always instantaneous. Love the UI here.

Make sure your Superuser app(s) binaries are always up-to-date.

I play with and change settings a lot... always looking for better performance... Typically three steps forward and one step back always. :)

The above is the best I can suggest. These settings all work very well for me. If you follow the above instructions and they don't work well for you - then maybe you have a hardware issue or your HD2 just doesn't like Paranoidandroid, but I'd love to hear back your results. Good luck!

ROM Toolkit can now be used with v1.1a to apply the hidden power and menu buttons; couldn't get it working with the previous build.

Have repackaged gogodu5sU's files from here, and attached them below just download ROM Toolbox from the market, copy the zip don't extract it into /sdcard/romtoolbox/ThemeManager/UserThemes ; then open the app and navigate to Interface -> Theme Manager -> User Themes and install it.

Edit. Also added files for blue softkeys and media buttons, as seen in the thread link above. Blue doesn't seem to do anything in tablet mode, perhaps it only works with phone mode.

Edit. The blue file doesn't seem to be implemented but I'll leave it attached, feel free to try it, and I'll change it if I can get it to work.
[HD2 Android SD Development] HypoTurtle:
Had multiple FCs a while ago what I'd suggest is trying to run fix permissions a few times, I'd used v6-supercharger via ADB as the FC's meant I couldn't use the phone directly. Also running sclean (clearing dalvik cache) may help, either done through v6 or by changing/refreshing kernels

You should try to install in phone modus and change DPI to 240 prior to that, after that you can change back to your preferred density.

If it works a pop window might come up telling you "The Swype package you installed does not match the screen size of the device……..", press ok and happy Swype……but only in Portrait mode
