Hey guys!

Im quite new to all this.. So my question is: How do i update my radio? And ROM? I want to run Android on my HD2. So i really need to update radio, but i dont know if i need to update ROM? And what ROM would be good, and whats the difference between all the ROMs?

A guide would be nice(I couldn't find anyone with the search function, thus this thread) :)

//Zenny

EDIT:

Do i need to update HSPL too? And to do that? If it is necessary :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
You just need to remove HSPL before returning to the supplier. If HSPL is on the device then yes, but remove it and they'll be none the wiser ;)

Hi, this stuff is really for the advanced user and not a noob (newbie), but i started out as a noob myself and now i will NEVER use a stock ROM again. A ROM on your phone is the built in software that creates the user inteface (UI). The chefs here write these roms with a base OS (ex. your HD2 uses windows mobile 6.5) and allow you to squeeze the most potential from your handheld device (I almost never use mylaptop anymore).

VERY IMPORTANT that you read the thread I'm putting right here, otherwise you will turn your beautiful device into a very expensive paperweight.

Here are two links that you need to read, if you dont understand something read it over again or ask before you attempt a cook.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] namco:
Hello,

Is there a way to know which CID an HTC HD2 has? I got a phone from someone and i can't seem to flash any stock ROM on it. Tried WWE, French, Portuguese and all give me a Wrong Vendor ID error.

I can't flash HSPL because SPL version is unsupported (3.30 or something).

Thanks.

EDIT:

Nevermind, sorted :)

Will flashing a custum rom nrg through hspl sim unlock the phone? pleez p.m me i will be buying a LeO soon
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kurt-willems:
No sir; nether HSPL, stock or custom rom will unlock your device. (there is no free solution to this)

you can contact your provider and ask/buy the unlock code.

Or looking on the net, there are company's who sell unlock codes.

[Streak 5 Android Development] JDouce:
Do we have any devs over here?

At all?

Its pretty damn quiet?
[Streak 5 Android Development] THJahar:
My guess is that since it's only out in the UK at the moment, development won't really kick off until it gets it's american release.

Although Paul at Modaco has already rooted the phone so maybe there's the odd developer trying to do stuff.
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
I'm more a tinkerer than a dev, but I'm having a play with quite a lot of stuff.

As this is my first full blown android I'm learning quickly (I do have a lot of experience with linux so it's not that alien).

first up for me is to work out if the wifi chip supports "N" like the n1
[Streak 5 Android Development] JDouce:
tinkerer, dev, whatever ... your more experienced than any of us...

how come you came to the streak :D
[Streak 5 Android Development] johnh123:
I wonder if it will support 720p video recording like the Incredible?
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
I love big screen devices... I've always missed my htc advantage.

And frankly this is a geeks ultimate device... So much potential for tweaking and some bugs to fix, how could I resist :D

Its so far left field that I can't help but see it become a design classic :D

And it works like a computer! I even love the Dell shell that makes it work like a desktop linux... That's one in the eye for Ms and their moronic new os.

When I get the hang of it at bit more hopefully I can start to push it.. Just starting to work through adb shell..

May extract that latest update to see what's new and what they are doing, still far to much I don't understand. Its quite fun being a noob all over again and doing lots of reading and discovering some great websites.

Maybe we should have a thread of all the various articles/ websites that people find useful relative to the streak and developing for android in relation to it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] be_vigilant:
Good to see you in here fards :-)

Like you I love my large screen devices which is why I went for the HD2. I cook my own roms using the latest sys and software with the amazing tools provided in these forums.

I would never consider myself a pro chef more like I can cook microwave meals hehe. Tools made by bepe and ervius etc do all the hard work for me :-)

I ordered my unlocked dell streak direct from dell UK yesterday with a delivery date of the 13th of July. Its going to feel great getting that 5" screen and I cant wait to begin tinkering. I think the first step will be rooting it, recovery image then having a play about with the modoco kitchen.

Second thing to do will be to get swype installed\cooked in as I CANNOT live without that, I am so used to it. I missed out on the open beta so hopefully cant find the files floating around the web somewhere ;-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] ComfySofa:
Me too - ive got a hd2 (now for sale if anyone wants it) - my streak will be here tomorrow....i couldnt wait (got an o2 locked one but ive got a rebel sim card on the way as well)- going to florida in 6 weeks time so i may pick up a couple of unlocked ones while im there (i think theyll work out at about 280 quid english money...)

With the HD2 im kinda used to having the latest and greatest software but it looks like we're going to have to wait a little while for a 2.2 version....
[Streak 5 Android Development] fracmo2000:
Yeah, this part of the forum is a little on the quiet side...but good to see/hear some people are looking into cooking some roms!

At first glance, I wasnt too impressed with it...until I actually used the device...its awesome! This phone + 2.1/2.2 will be unstoppable.

Question for you; Are we waiting on Dell to release the kernel source for 2.1/2.2 so that we can build a custom 2.1/2.2 rom as the kernel for 1.6 wont work with 2.1/2.2? Or am I way off haha!
[Streak 5 Android Development] JDouce:
nope ur spot on we need a kernel for 2.x

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dotnetguyaz:
It's not a ROM... it's a collection of apps on top of what looks like Dinik's glass. The lock screen is S2U2. The iPhone interface is PhonEx. The music player is S2P, etc... All things you can download and install without having a custom ROM at all.
[Desire General] saitrix:
Hi,

My phone has started going auto to loudspeaker when I make a call. Before it did not do this, how can I change this back as it's really annoying!
[Desire General] kingkang:
This happened to me skap. Don't know what caused it. I turned my phone off and on again... -problem solved! Haven't happened after that.
[Desire General] boas:
For me, this happens irregular and is often correlated whith previous usage of the speaker. If speaker is user in a call, it seem to me that if speaker is not deactivated before call ended, it still will be activated at the next call. But that is more of a speculation than fact.
[Desire General] Sillysod:
Happened to me one time, realised the phone came out of screen idle as the proximity sensor was off the end of my ear, and I had pressed it with my face.

Indigo Bean

Latest version: 1.0

Description:

This is a ROM using the famous CyanogenMod sources, version 5.0.8.

It has quite unique features compared to other ROMs:

Power Control Widget with automatic brightness mode (a Froyo feature)

setting to blink the (green) notification light

charging light (amber) if there are no notifications (also a setting)

Download:

I've written a small web-application that allows you to keep track of my releases. You can download ROMs and Add-ons there, as well as see some fancy statistics.

Check it out: http://derhofbauer.at/android/

Setup:

The recommended (easiest) method to download and install Indigo Bean is via ROM-Manager (which can be found in the Market). You can also use the QR-codes from my website.

Sources on GitHub:

Thanks go out to kyosa (touchscreen patches) and defer (for saying "ramdisk"). And of course Cyanogen, the whole CM team and Koush for their great work!

[Legend Android Development] Darkchaser:
Excellent, I never thought I'd see CyanogenMod on the Legend :D

I'd love to try it if only the camera wasn't broken......
[Legend Android Development] LecterMe:
Great. Downloading....... ;)
[Legend Android Development] Bricolo_fr:
is the volume key long-press working to change tracks in the audio player, as in the Cyanogen ROMs?
[Legend Android Development] LecterMe:
Looks fine so far. Thx for sharing.

One thing that does not work for me is Cardiotrainer from Market. When i try to start workout, it FC. Same problem with vanilla bean. The app works fine on all other roms and also on my magic with Cyangenmod 5.0.7DS.
[Legend Android Development] nofear2k:
For those that want camera i can recommend Vignette, it works perfectly.

It costs some money but its totally worth it since you can add effects and lots of other stuff.
[Legend Android Development] danishnicooo:
can you take pictures ?
[Legend Android Development] c1nu5:
this are very great news! Thank you ali ba for your awesome work!
[Legend Android Development] LecterMe:
Looks like I have the same sync problems as in vanilla bean. I get no mails pushed. Have have to make a manual refresh .
[Legend Android Development] LuckyPhil88:
is it possible just to have the lockscreen as an app?
[Legend Android Development] kyle25:
Is it possbile to use metamorth in this rom?
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
Sorry, I won't download every app and test if it works with my ROMs. Please provide a log-file (logcat).

Stock camera app

does

work with this release. Issues are 5MP and zoom. Besides that you can take pictures and videos. And playback videos, which is an issue with Vanilla Bean.

Sorry to hear that. I can sync right out of the box after providing my Google credentials. I changed some contact info in Google contacts and saw the changes nearly immediately on my phone.

Again: If you provide a proper log, I might be able to help you.

No. The Lockscreen is part of the framework. Replace the responsible class and the HTC apps will be broken. There were efforts to provide a vanilla-like lockscreen for HTC, don't know whether they succeeded. This is the wrong thread nevertheless for such a request.

You don't have write access to /system, so you'll always have to get into recovery mode.
[Legend Android Development] frullewulle:
Thanks for this image!

Has soneone found a way to install it with rom manager. flash clockworkmod recovery fails on my legend. Or is there another way to backup my original rooted rom before flashing this one?
[Legend Android Development] schpinn:
Just an idea, have you tried contacting the CyanogenMod team and maybe submit some patches to make an official CyanogenMod version for the Legend? AFAIK the same has been done with the Desire recently, using contributor patches.

EDIT: I also presume they'd be able to help you with the camera problem.
[Legend Android Development] Darkchaser:
Does vignette use the full 5mp of the Legend? The problem with camera app is the resolution.... it feels kind wasted having paid for a 5MP camera and not being able to fully utilise it.
[Legend Android Development] HenrikTheJester:
You just made me realize that I simply have to root. I've gotta have this!
[Legend Android Development] nofear2k:
Yepp, it uses 5MP, you can actually choose from a list what MP you want.
[Legend Android Development] Zym0tiC:
rom is working great. again good work!

you know if the htc keyboard should be included? for some reason i have the default android 2 times :p
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
@schpinn:

I'm maybe going to do that.

The problem we face is that the hardware is fundamentally different to the Desire, whereas Desire and Nexus mostly share the same drivers.
[Legend Android Development] ThreeLeggedMessiah:
I'm having some issues with my connection, not sure what exactly is the cause of it. Sometimes I can't make or receive calls (when somebody tries to call me it says that I'm unavailable), can't go online, can't send SMS, even though the phone shows that it's connected with full signal and the 3G icon. Then after reboot or after enabling and disabling airplane mode everything goes back to normal.

Does anything like this happen to anyone else?
[Legend Android Development] snakehult:
I haven't noticed it before, but in 0.5 power control widget doesn't show automatic brightness (no A inside "sun")
[Legend Android Development] samvel123:
mhhh it is able to use the normal stuff from the market!????? or not.

and if so, so is there something like "apps 2 SD" ??? :confused:
[Legend Android Development] schpinn:
What do you mean by "normal"? Market works and all apps are available, if that's what you're asking.

Apps2SD is included (there's an option in Settings / Applications to enable/disable it).
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
That's because there is no such feature in Éclair.

I could try to backport it though...
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
My super user app got bugged after the update it doesn't show anything only a black screen. When I click menu it shows Configure...
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
Apparently there's been a change in CM's codebase causing this.

You can move Superuser.apk and Superuser.odex from system/app to /sdcard, restart the phone, remove the remaining settings (in Settings->Applications->Manage applications) and move the Settings.* files back in.

If you don't know how to do this (in recovery mode), then there's another solution:

Wipe.

In recovery mode, adb shell:

mount /system
mount /sdcard
mv /system/app/Settings.* /sdcard

Then, after erasing settings:

mount /system
mount /sdcard
mv /sdcard /system/app/Settings.*
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
Problem Solved :D I also got a new cool boot animation after the wipe :)
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
Now I have another problem I can't install Apps bigger than 1 MB. ..
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
"adb shell logcat"
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
I fixed it... reflashed the ROM :) Still got the Cool Boot Animation :D
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
I suspect your cache partition was full, but without a proper log I can't be sure.

Btw: Wipe your cache partition before flashing

every time

. It doesn't do anything to your data (unless you hit the wrong option).
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
OK Thank You! :D
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
I've successfully backported the Power Control Widget from 2.2 to Indigo Bean. This means besides "off", "default" and "max" the brightness button also cycles "automatic brightness".

You can get that addon (as always) via ROM-Manager or download it from the Android-page on my website: http://derhofbauer.at/android/.
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
The update didn't work for me it deleted my market youtube and twitter app.
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
You did it wrong. Completely :D. The update did not delete anything.

If you reflash 0.5 and the backport only than of course the Google apps are gone.

Solution: Flash the Google apps via "Install ROM from SD". It's in clockworkmod/download/derhofbauer.at/android/downloads/addons. Or select all addons in the list.
[Legend Android Development] anbublackops:
Thank you again! I'm OK now.
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
Where did you manage to make the buttom bar of 5 icons? Looked in the settings everywhere.. (At least I'm convinsed that I did)

Great rom ali! Hope you can fix the led as it won't light up when it is charging.

[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
This is not a bug so there's nothing to fix. I disabled the charging light on purpose.

Nevertheless, the next release will feature a setting to enable amber charging light - I knew someone would complain about that. :D :D :D :D
