hi,

welcome to paranoidandroid.

while it is not super fast it usually doesnt lag that much either. i m sure wis will give you better advise..until then you can try the following,

1. reboot the device 2, 3 times unless you have already done so.

2. see post 2. advice to improve performance.

3. change the kernel to latest tytung, post 3.

hope this helps. PA is still relatively young. imo it has great potential. PAD, PAL are only seen in this rom and its brilliant. you can expect much better performance with the updated to come.

regards.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Nigeldg:
Are you serious? Have you even looked in the NAND Development forum? The Paranoidandroid thread is one of the most active threads in there right now
[HD2 Android SD Development] boysha8:
kanishkapd. Thanks for the prompt reply. I did reboot at least 10 times now. Have tried the tip on post 2. can you suggest which tytung kernel to use, as there seem to be multiple versions.

Anyone has any more suggestions to speed up the rom. I really love the look and feel, but the slowness is an issue for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Szczepanik:
Try something like this fast reeboot:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greatbytes.fastreboot

Always wait for SD card.

Cheers

Tom

Is it possible to increase RAM on my HD2 to avoid lags?
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
try tytung kernel 2.4, the bottom one of the three in post 3. it works well for me. hope you find success.
[HD2 Android SD Development] boysha8:
Settings screenshots are different

Thanks kanishkapd, i will try that.

I just noticed something peculiar though, I see the screenshot on page 1 and my settings do not look like that at all. Is there some way to turn on the tablet settings in the phone. Also, i dont see the paranoid settings above the developers option at all. Its accessibility and then developers options.

Where can i get those settings, and how can i put the action buttons into the status bar, as on that screenshot.

Sorry for all my noobie questions, hope someone can help.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
hi

you have PA version 1, right? no idea why you cant see the paranoid settings:(

right now i m changing my sd card and cant check it myself. have you gone through the whole menu? it should be there.

to change to tablet mode first you have to find the paranoid settings. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] melando:
Look under interface by Launcher (near the top of the settings menu, not at the bottom by developer options...)

PS I see 1.1 is on the way... look forward to it :-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] boysha8:
Hi thanks for the help so far. I actually re-did a clean install and this time it seems to have installed properly. I have been having a tough time though picking the right resolution, as it needs to keep restarting. Kept me busy at work all day so far :)

I was trying to install swype. I tried the swype beta installer, but it refused saying the screen size is not supported (and this is even after i put the general DPI to 240). Then i tried an apk of swype that i had which was for a 800x480 resolution. even that did not work.

Also, i have been having some issues with some apps not able to open like gmail, sometimes even settings etc. Only a reboot would fix it. How to avoid that?

When in tablet mode (i like the status bar with action buttons at the bottom), when i change the general DPI to 240, the phone reboots but reverts out of the tablet mode (status bar goes on top and the split screen in settings, gmail etc also disappears). How to retain tablet mode with a higher DPI?

Any pointers?

Hi I love this build. hybrid mode is fast but the fonts and icons become too small. what to do to keep hybrid mood and make fonts and icons regular size (as it appears on phone mode)

thanks in advance.
[HD2 Android SD Development] HTCHD2V:
Try this: Settings->Accessibility->Large Text, but for me, large fonts are ugly
[HD2 Android SD Development] wis1152:
Update tomorrow v1.1:-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] consultjai:
thanks. icon becomes extremely small. your suggestion improves text size but not the icon on hybrid mode. normal phone mode looks great with average sized icons (less background visibility) but slow and lagging. i am trying for hybrid mode and average sized icons. tried changing global setting to different options but in vain.

anything else?

and the keyboard becomes small as well - making it impossible to type with fingers
[HD2 Android SD Development] HTCHD2V:
Thank you for keep updating! :cool:

1. Icons

Put your launcher in Phone mode=240 dpi (from Paranoid settings).

2. Yes, the keyboard is small. Maybe some keyboard for tablets will resolve this, but I suspect that tablet keyboard will not work properly in Phone mode.

Let's see v1.1. Maybe there will be progress.

I tried phone mode, and don't think it is slow. For me phone mode (hybrid=off) performing faster than tablet mode (hybrid=on), but I love hybrid mode!
[HD2 Android SD Development] enigma1nz:
Same here. Setting page looks completely different to the one in original post.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
hi

dont change the global settings. global setting dpi 240 only works for phone mode.

try this: paranoid settings> hybrid mode> list apps> all apps > nova launcher

now change nova launcher PAD.

its same with any app. any application in the phone, you can change the PAD to your taste. big or small. even the key board. small problem with key board is that when it is small, you have to figure out where to press exactly on the screen :)..its not on the keys itself. you will figure it out.

---------- Post added at 08:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

hi

general dpi 240 only works with phone mode.

what you can do is go to tablet mode. hybrid settings. and change PAD of the apps you want bigger/ or smaller. you can virtually resize any app :)

see my post above, if you are not sure how to change PAD.

anyway you can try out the new version tomorrow.

[HD2 Android SD Development] c1cl0n:
In startup.txt (rel_path parametr) you can use any folder name where is place your ParanoidAndroid. As default it's set to "paranoidHD2"

And check your data.ext4 size! As default it's set to "1024". If your size (from ParanoidAndroid 1.0) < 1024 (like 512 or 256), you should to chenge it to 512/256 in startup.txt (data_size parametr)

:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] HD2-WP7:
got it :-) to go with the startup.txt as it is, need to name the folder "Android" :-) thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] melando:
Terminal seems to work after I restore using TB - maybe just need to revert to the same system app used in 1.0?

FWIW To update I simply copied across the new system.ext4 after extracting the existing pad.prop and placing it into root/system. I needed to switch tablet UI features back on but (so far) that is all...

Games running fine, no problems noted
[HD2 Android SD Development] mazimo:
Didnt work for me, i tried ICS i tried Android, neither worked :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] c1cl0n:
What is a name of your folder with ParanoidAndroid in your sdcard ?

And what is a name in file startup.txt (line with parametr rel_path=) ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] enigma1nz:
I reinstalled on average about 4 times - same thing. Another thing is odd behaviour, for example, dock icons disappearing, as well as everything on the screens, all I get is wallpaper until I reboot. Lots of 'system not responding', FC etc. Certain custom resolution settings prevent booting altogether, the whole thing gets stuck at the boot animation. Tablet mode useless - icons and text are too small, even if I set text to HUGE, so had to stick with phone mode with no change in resolution. Some problems could potentially be due to my 1Gb data4.ext, had to increase the size because I just ran out of space to install my programs. Will test the new version, see what happens.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanishkapd:
hi

give us feed back when you check the new version. kind of busy these days and cant check it myself.

issues with size can be managed with PAD and user DPI settings in hybrid mode. have to do a bit of experimenting with the settings. or as you mentioned could be an issue with the large data image.

regards.

Constant Reboob

I installed 1.1 to the paranoidHD directory on my SD card.

I modified the startup.txt file to match the size of my data.ext4 file (1152kb). At least that's what toporesize says it is.

Does the size of the data.ext4 file need to match the setting in the system.txt file exactly? Are we counting diKbytes (multiples of 1024) or Kbytes (multiples of 1000)?

Using a blank data.ext4 file all I get is constant reboots when the HD2 splash screen goes to load the main OS.

I also tried erasing the data.ext4 file and seeing if it will be created automatically and this also failed.

Any ideas?

Thanks....
[HD2 Android SD Development] ribou:
When I select settings \ phone ringing ( in phone mode ), the phone reboot (several times) with version 1.1, but not in tablet mode :confused:

Edit : I cannot put widget or folder of folder organizer on the home screen ( I haven't this problem with v1.0)

Re-edit : I must go to applications \ widget, but not directly
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
If you're using (meaning: if you already have) an existing data.ext4 file of any size... and re-installing the SD build... You CAN remove the "data_size=xxxx" statement from the Startup.txt file. In my (own limited) experience, it works better this way. There's not even a need for the data_size statement, unless you're freshly recreating a data.ext4 file. The numbers would be in kbytes not dekabyte (which you've reversed in your question)... multiples of 1024. But, please someone... correct me if I'm wrong. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] melando:

No it was just removed by parent d4rk who does not understand why we want it in hd2. Only at top on home screen if google bar enabled, not for example in xda app!

Just like melando said; but fwiw... it doesn't matter what the name of the directory is... as long as the installation files are in the folder specified in the Startup.txt file... and since .txt files are easily edited, you can name the destination folder - literally - anything you like... as long as the names match... you're good to go.

paranoidHD2 v1.1a is fast and smooth

... and I'm one of 1st Haret users

:D
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Hmmm... I'd start fresh. Hopefully, if you have backups of your user apps & data (from Titanium Backup - or something similar), it's an easy re-install.

You can recreate a data.ext4 file fresh... and then delete it (if you like), substituting a blank (empty file) of a larger or different size if need be, from here... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24930501&postcount=1353

If you re-install or recreate the build later on... just remove the data_size statement from the installation folder, reusing your existing good data.ext4 file in the process. This process has served me well for a long time. I always re-use my data file... unless I'm changing to an entirely different build - like GB to MIUI or ICS... but within the same type of builds - reusing the data file always seems to work.

I have no idea why you're having problems... but this is what I'd do to 'recover'. Sorry - that's all I've got. Good luck. -Rob

Thank you for your help. You missed my original post where I said that I had tried several different blank data.ext4 files all with the same result. I also tried no data.ext4 assuming that it would be created.

hi, how to changer size of softkey? it too big.
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
You would need the data_size=xxxx statement in the Startup.txt file to create a new one (I'd meant that after one is in place, the statement itself is no longer needed in the .txt file, if doing an upgrade or reinstallation).

As far as your issue... ??? :confused: The only similarities I've read of were having to do with a bad card. Reformat or replace... and that's just a guess. Sorry I couldn't help.
