PA-HD2_v2.54-2.9

PA-HD2_v2.54-2.9.zip - 305.17 MB

MD5: cc7609a6343dd0d502e44abe8cc3b27b

CREATE BACKUP FROM RECOVERY BEFORE FLASHING!!!

Change log:

Set HTC-RIL_2.2.1001G to default

Added missing ril files for manual network switching (2g/3g switching works as before, see below) (thx to tyr75)

Fixed issues around changing between ppp and rmnet

Marc1706 kernel updated to 0.1.2 (still experimental, report back experiences!)

Updated applications: Multiling Keyboard, GoogleNow, GoogleMaps, YouTube, GoogleMail, Term

720p hw video playback extended, now supports what can be supported

Added step to installer to preserve paranoid preferences (enabled by default)

Some sysctl tuning to improve performance

Notes:

2g/3g switching works as before: that means you have to go to settings menu as notification toggle from framework is still broken (but now keeps the settings permanent for the next reboot)

I did not test marc1706's kernel. Feedback please...

PAC (v16) is still in the installer but I had no time to test it. Feedback please...

I did not test NAND and NaticeSD installations. Feedback please...

720p playback extended with the missing s series codecs, playback works for all type of vids (all=what android supports) now, even with Google Gallery's Video Player.

Use this to test: http://downloads.dvdloc8.com/trailers/divxdigest/serenity_hd_dvd-trailer.zip

Camcorder hw encoding is there since early 2.x releases but I got only one feedback. I'm using lgCamcorder pro and it works for me, also works from Google Gallery's Camcorder.

FYI:

probably this is the last PA2.+ release. I'll prepare AOSPA3+ only if there will be a good (quality) ROM to use as base.

yaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice!!!!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] smartidoos:
Sorry ,this rom is slow ,not responding ,reboot and I have instald the way it must ,but for the HD2 is jellybean and ICS to heavy only gingerbread worls great also sens rom`s are not stable.

But thx for the rom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
What type of installation you did? Could you please share your install log? If DataOnEXT or NativeSD, what kind of SD you are using?

There are dozens of ICS/JB roms out for HD2, all of them are fast. Current JB ROMs are lag-free.

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Suhaib10:
Version 2.9 does seem slightly slower. I tried the 4.2 camera and it still has the flickering bug. when i tried using the 4.2 camera on tytung's 1.3a rom it worked fine no flickering or lines, nothing( except for photosphere not working due to gyro). Maybe try adding the new lib files.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Re slower: in what cntx?

Re camera: thanks the feedback, I'll check the libs right now.

Thanks, J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Suhaib10:
Compared to Tytung's rom but i think thats probably because of the animation and all set to 1x unlike tytungs where it is set to 0.5x and I think it might have something to do with PA (ex: browser is slower when it is set to 160dpi and 600x compared to its default settings 240 and 360).

But its not really that big a deal Great job :good: and since for you plan on working on PA3.0 this might help ANDROID 4.2 and port form here
[HD2 Android NAND Development] asisislam:
Power key in Softkey Navigation?

Thanks for a very fast and smooth ROM

Battery consumption was 4mA\

Anyway to add "power" option to the softkey navigation?

How to reduce the Softkey navigation height to 30dpi?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
You have to turn off all those anims, even 0.5 is just slowing it down... :)

I tried to sync some libs with 1.3a but not all the libraries are compatible :( and can't get GCam4.2 working. Now it starts flickering only when it can not follow the AE changes (e.g. pointing into light and away) but switching between video/picture modes clears flickering. Panorama also broken.

I'll put it into a new package if I'll find something else to fix...

Thanks, J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
You can try to apply the PAC framework and see if the softkeys provided by PAC is enough or not.

You can also try to check one of the mod under "User Contributions" from the OP.

If none of them would help, you could try to change those values in framework yourself.

Wow!

I have been using you PA-HD2 v2.54-2.8 almost 3 weeks now on NAND with DataOnEXT without SWAP and I must say that this has been the smoothest and snappiest JB ROM to run on my HD2.

Now an update is really cool. Downloading...!

Thanks a ton @kovjanos!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] melando:
Will this work with 2.9 also, or have you updated systemui.apk and/or framework-res.apk? (I cannot immediately spot any changes...)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
No changes there so the mod should work.

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] maneken25:
Sd card class 10 doesn't guarantee you fast and smooth rom, random read/write speed does. Download Crystalmark benchmark tool and test your card speed.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
+1: If you are on DataOnEXT or NativeSD, let the device settle, e.g. ~2-5m. While system is starting up a lots of concurrent reads and writes happen targeting the SD Card which can't handle it.

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] melando:
Just done the easiest update I ever remember (using MAGLDR/NativeSD, odexed + tablet/720p statusUI/framework mod) - no issues at all and no need to reconfigure anything on reboot - perfect
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gasanpride:
No major issues with the 2.9 updates so far using Haret - NativeSD.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dheerajk27:
Feedback

Installed this on top of 2.54-2.8 version and I must say that the 2.9 version is as snappy as 2.8.

Though, I felt it didn't like installing the ROM on top of v2.8 somehow and after a few hours of use, once it had one hot-reboot (never had a hot-reboot with 2.8 version with NAND and DataOnEXT setup for 3 weeks), after which, all the settings seemed to be vanished (such as Navigation bar settings, soft key, Notification power settings etc.). Re-installed the ROM on top of the previous data again, without "preserve" option for PA settings. Then setup everything from the start (system settings and PA settings). Now everything was functioning except the old infamous "home key not fuctioning after ROM update" issue. Didn't want to do an installation with complete wipe (as I was lazy to install/restore all my 297 apps again). Hence searched and found this solution (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538970).. It worked and everything has been smooth ever since.

I haven't had any issues with Camera (Photo and video). For that matter, I don't use it so often. Just tested.

Had set the min frees option to Aggressive on ROM Toolbox. Just mentioning.

I would say this ROM has been the best in terms of DataOnEXT setup. Never faced any lag during my 3 weeks' usage of 2.54-2.8 version. For that matter, I had also used Super Wipe zip (floating around somewhere in XDA) before flashing the NAND with DataOnEXT version, which might have also helped a bit.

Thank you @kovjanos, I would say, at last I have found a JB ROM of my liking in terms of look (PA) and performance.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] eugene260880:
can i use magldr or cwm recovery to install this rom? or only can use nativesd method?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nervy:
nativesd method is a magldr cwm install...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
You need a recovery (cwm is ok) to install this rom. If you have magldr, you can install to nand only (e.g. if you have us hd2 an few apps only); you can install the system to nand and data to the SD card's ext partition (called DataOnEXT); - or as the third option you can install it as a NativeSD rom.

If you have clk you have only the first two options, no NativeSD (out-of-box, you can still hack them together yourself)

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dheerajk27:
The only small issue I face is that the data connection gets dropped over a long period of use. Like, after I go to sleep with data on, when I try to access internet in the morning, I find that even though the signal bar shows that it is connected to H/3G/E, I am not able to get the connection. Only a reboot solves the problem. I remember getting this issue in earlier version (2.8) as well.

I am using magldr with NAND and DataOnExt setup (deodexed and no SWAP). Partition size is the minimum mentioned in OP (180 MB). I had selected the minimal install while installing the ROM as well as selected the default HTC RIL option.

EDIT: Kernel I am using is Tytung's

Hi, Thank you for spending time on this PA-HD2 v2.54-2.9.

I'm looking Support for EAP-SIM?

http://code.google.com/p/seek-for-android/wiki/EapSimAka

Do you think it is possible with this Rom?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] khangozzy:
Just flashed this awesome ROM using NAND, very smooth and responsive compared to my old PA ICS.

I have issue with wifi SSID, the network name displayed as a string of 0 (00.00.00.00.00.00) in status bar and Wifi Manager app, but appeared as normal in Settings/Wifi with real name of SSID.

I using tablet mode with all DPI 192 and this mod http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34432998&postcount=764

BTW, anyone know what is the best setting for Camera to work fine without screen flicker ?

Tks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wollice:
i did use dataonext type , and i have 2G ext . after settled down the rom , i got no internal space to install any apps . pls check
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
You want to install apps into NAND/SYSTEM? Then you have to strip down the rom and skip add-on install.

If not, could you please give me some details:

Output of 'df'

Output of 'du -md2 /NativeSD'

Output of 'du -md1 /data'

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] skinbis:
i miss xylograph but its great to have you here. thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
New version uploaded. ROM is the same but installer offers a smaller minimal installation.

I'm having mobile-data issues, so next update will be adding tytung's kernel (before going back to MAGLDR).

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wollice:
FYI , i have been using INT2EXT+ script that make the internal spaces roughly equal to ext partition size . for that we can install many apps as we want .

in ur rom , isn't the dataOnEXT function supposed to be doing the same job like INT2EXT+ to leave enough internal space for us to install app ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
DataOnEXT

Should - not exactly the same method but similar: using the ext partition on SD as /data - no other symlinks, tricks, etc.

If you are running out of space on /data:

- you are not using the the "NAND with DataOnEXT" deployment

- you have other content on your ext partition. Please note that ROMs with NativeSD support like this PA-HD2 won't wipe your whole /data partition even if you chose Data/Factory reset, install will delete only /NativeSD/<rom id>/* (e.g. /NativeSD/PA-HD2/*). If you need full wipe on your ext partition (external /data) than you must use a recovery which can format /sd-ext directly!

- you are using some non-supported mod which messed up your deployment

Please don't use any other "something2somewhere" methods, they are not supported. Use the built-in DataOnEXT deployment!

Whether you are using the righ deployment or the NAND-only can be checked from the AROMA installer saved log file (if you saved it from the wizard).

Whether you have other content on your ext partition or your /data is correct can be checked using the commands I mentioned.

I flashed the PA 2.52 leo v1.0 today, with 350mb partition.

Flashed it with no problems, but when i booted, it says NAND kernel open failed. flashed 3 to 4 times with no luck.

I flashed the NexusHD2 and it booted. I love PA more than any rom.

Help please
[HD2 Android NAND Development] caracal reloaded:
Me too. 1st boot

"NAND kernel open failed" :eek:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wollice:
i didn't use any script in your rom .

here is my steps for flashing ur rom

1, full wipe in recovery

2, format sd-ext

3.install your rom , choose NAND with DataOnEXT+odex .

boot successfully . but no internal memory for me to install app.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Ok, next step is to provide:

- the install log

- command outputs

I can't help w/o these details.

J.

To get the install log:

- install rom

- in last step choose save logs

- next step turn deselect reboot

- go back to recovery w/o reboot

- attach to desktop, mount usb, copy log from phone to desktop
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
I need more details:

- Which deployment type? NAND only or with DataOnEXT?

- What is your bootloader - cLK or MAGLDR?

- What type of recovery?

- Could you please repeat the install securing and uploading the install log?

See prev post how to get the install log.

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
NAND kernel open failed

I installed the minimal w/o odexing to "NAND only" and booted w/o any issues.

Could you please try to install it from v2.52-1.1 ?

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] caracal reloaded:
MAGLDR

Nand DataOnExt

:(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Ok, going to flash MAGLDR and test it...

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] caracal reloaded:
But MAGLDR works fine with other rom.

Problem is PA-HD2 v.252 :rolleyes:

I tried again

1. full wipe

2. flash with NAND Sd-Ext

4. Google now, Google TTS

reboot

In bootloader, again: NAND kernel open failed

I think there is a problem in the rom
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
MAGLDR issue

Got the same with MAGLDR.

Testing the fix and uploading new image - will take ~2h :(

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] caracal reloaded:
If it is useful to fix the problem, I attach my log.

I think I'll forget this rom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
MAGLDR support

Yep, log helps..

Try this: http://d-h.st/qfe

If you are on MAGLDR, choose tytung kernel and choose RMNET as connection type.

I tested it with NAND_with_DataOnEXT and works for me.

Testing if MAGLDR+marc+RMNET|ppp work together, but probably this will be the v2.52-1.2...

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] skinbis:
I just flashed this rom Nand + DataOnExt + Odex... only problem i have now is the connection...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
? bootloader : cLK or MAGLDR ?

? kernel: marc1706 or tytung ?

? data connection: PPP or RMNET ?

MAGLDR+marc1706+RMNET does not work now...

To date the only rom to support 720p RECORDING to my knowledge is Tytung's 1.3a Jellybean. Are there any plans to bring over the drivers used to support this feature? Plenty of rom's have 720p playback.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Could you please capture log (logcat, with radio log) for this? I tried to do it because I used to have the same issue with 2.7, but not in 2.8 or 2.9.

Thanks, J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
I'll give it a try but not before 3.x-xx as first I have to get a working source tree to patch.

(don't forget to remind me after the first release!)

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
It won't be fixed till next major release - there is a small incompatibility between framework api and the fixed libs. You have to use 3rd party apps, like lgcamera.

J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Could you please capture log (logcat with radio log)?

Thanks, J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Could you please point me to the thread/message stating 720p recording? All I found in the 1.3a's OP is:

720p Video Playback (MPEG4 and H.264 up to 720p with hardware video decoding)

Camcorder recording (640x480, MPEG4 with hardware video encoding)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] TWeaKoR:
To get around this I just used the other Camera app, the one with the rounded icon that isn't part of the Gallery app. It may have been an optional install from Aroma though.

I had this problem at one point, I'd been using it fine then I had a string of messages that hadn't gone through. If you long press the messages and delete them individually it should start working again (it did for me). You might only need to delete the oldest message that's stuck.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] skinbis:
fingers crossed
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dheerajk27:
Thank you for the response. Was on a tour, hence couldn't check back. Will try to generate the logcat, though the occurrence of the problem is happening at weirdest of times to get on the PC. Will give a try though. Will also try to see what happens after a fresh install, since the issue is not happening for you. Thanks again for this amazing ROM, which has prompted me to stick with my HD2, even after 2 and a half years...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rapunzel2004:
I´ve installed this rom a few days ago on NativeSD (Deodexed, Tytung kernel, PAC framework, supercharged, 32GB Transcend Class 10) and I´m very impressed. Running butter smooth and everything is working without any problems so far. In fact it runs as good as Tytung´s NexusHD Jellybean (installed in NAND with DataOnExt) and as fast as Mr-Evil´s EvoHD2 (NativeSD). I think it will become my rom for everyday use as I prefer a rom with PAC framework. Thank you very much for this fantastic rom, I love it!

Good morning kovjanos,

thank you for your work on this ROM.

Could you help me please, I have an issue with the lockscreen.

Every time I push the power button on my HD2 (screen is off) the screen enlightens and the lockscreen appears, but when I push the power button again, the screen turns black, but the screen is still enlightened (you will see it best in the dark).

Would you please help me with this?

thank you in advance
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gasanpride:
I tested it. I see what you're saying. Wait for another minute and the screen will shut off. I don't think a major issue. Not a show stopper.

Good finding though.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zexmunze:
Go to setings/developer options,set winsows,transition animation scale and animator duration scale to: .5x
[HD2 Android NAND Development] __:
unfortunately not yet solved

Thank you dear friends for your answers, BUT...

...in my case the device after 4min (than I stopped checking) still was enlighted.

...sorry, but your hint did not help either.

Now just imagine having the device all day long in your pocket, even at work, how many times did you push any button without realizing it.

My battery does not do even a day, because it is draint by the screen.

I know there are some apps, which are triggering the proximity sensor. But any of the ones I've tried, is build the way they should work. EFFICIENTLY!

I remeber, when I ran WinMo there was in "CHTS" the abbility to use the proximity sensor for switching off the screen.

But it was built this way:

When a button has been pressed, the proximity sensor was activated, if it had been covered, it turned off the lights and it tuned off itself.

I know there is a solution, and kovjanos is able to solve this.

I hope he is willing to do so.

thank you in advance
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gasanpride:
Anyone else using Kovjanos ROM experiencing screen off issue of ..what is your name btw? Kovjanos might be busy developing JB updates. So if no other member encountering your issue, let him focus with the updates first.

One other suggestion. Can you backup your current ROM and then install v2.9 from scratch and see.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zexmunze:
Do logcat,i'm using this rom for 5 days no problems at all using nativesd,maybe fresh or other rom install will solve your problem or maybe is hardware fault.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
Let me know if you have anything to check.

I was in Switzerland last week and got ~3 SOD every day... next week I will try to keep it in SOD while I'm back to check what happened.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
If you did install after task29 and set all the 3 scales (win anim, trans anim and anim duration) to "off" and you are facing with this issue on a clean (means no app installed, data wiped and SDCard off or formatted) system, then this must be a hardware fault.

If one of the mentioned config is not true, please try to do it from scratch. If you will still face with the same issue, then please provide logcat.

Hope it helps, J.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] __:
almost OK

Thank you for the clear instructions.

But one thing is not familiar to me.

How do I set all 3 of this mentioned scales to "off"?

Some of my specs:

Device: HTC HD2 (EU)

HSPL: 2.08.HSPL

Radio: v2.15.50.14

Bootloader: cLK v1.5.1.6

Recovery: Extended TWRP v2.3.3.0 rev5

4Gb ext4 partition on 16Gb Samsung Class10

lockscreen style: Grid 3 x 3

Hope this will help you to locate my problem.

Thank you for your willingness to help

What are the customization you applied, esp to the lock-screen?

Sorry to report late. Had got my tour extend and could return only yesterday night. Though I had changed the library to HTC-RIL_2.2.0054HM for a few days now and have never got a single data connection drop since then. The default RIL was giving the problem I guess. The ROM is still running very smooth even after using with DataOnExt for more than two weeks. All I can say is AMAZING! So, changing the RIL library helped me to solve the only issue of data drop... Thanks again!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kovjanos:
FYI: finally got the 4.2.1 + PA 2.99 built w/o error... I'm trying to hack some proprietary files together and put it into an installer, but that's a *****. Beside the fact that ROM developers are sharing almost nothing back + PA now is AOSP, I'm not sure is AOSPA3+ will be a good alternative.
