Slow wake up

I'm using Android on my HD2 for a long time now, but I still got one big issue.

Every time I want to unlock my defice is takes a few seconds before I can unlock the device. Sometimes only the key background light turn on and nothing happens.

I've tried several things.

- Latest buils, updates

- Set screen timeout to 30 min

- Reformat SD card

- update radio

- I used no app killer

Offcouse I've read post 3 :-)

I'm now using:

- Subcraft 1.4d

- Radio 2.12.50.02_2

Is there someting else I can try? I hope someone can help me with this last big problem! :)

I was having the same problem. What I did to fix it was use a different config in startup.txt and now it is works awesome :)

This is my current startup.txt

set mtype 2524

set ramaddr 0x11800000

set ramsize 0x1e400000

set initrd_offset 0x00a00000

set initrd initrd.gz

set kernel zImage

set cmdline "rel_path=Android"

boot

Try holding the "end call" button (like what you do to power off the phone) until something pops up and then click the "back key" after the reboot menu pops up.

Try it. At least it solved my problem.

Possible solution for touch screen freezes

Hi, I'm not sure if anyone else discovered this too so just thought I'd share. I found that enabling compcache and setting VM heap size to 32MB has significantly reduced my screen/ phone freezes on all builds. Can anyone else confirm this?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tsrzealot:
Did you try either of those steps separately? And don't Cyanogenmod-based builds already have compcache enabled (please correct me if I'm wrong)? If that was the case, ppl using builds like shubcraft etc. should either experience less freezing "out of the box", or compcache alone is not the solution or neither of those things work and it's just a "placebo" effect ;)

EDIT: Just copied Shubcraft to my SD-card and reaized that Cyanogen-mod in fact does have the option to enable compcache, but it's disabled by default. Since I haven't gotten any freezes/sods on any build I've used so far, I'm not sure how much testing I will be able to do with this, but we'll see.

Exactly like that.

The odds are maybe 1 out of 20 starts but we do launch android a lot these days.

Hardware isn't affected. Yes you can reflash OR you can easily restore with spb backup.

My problem is definitly tied to wifi. If I turn it off then I don't have the issues with my phone freezing when it goes to sleep. I went back over the instructions on the link for updating the firmware files and realized I never did the final step, removing any existing data.img files. I'm doing that now and rebooting my phone to see if that fixes the problem.

Not true.

I copy the 2 .ko files into /system/lib/modules like other kernels

Start your phone and, for me, it's done.

More on the accelerometer

I´ve read many posts in this thread regarding freezes related to the accelerometer.

Since I tried the last kernel (released yesterday) 31-08-2010 I can run Android really fluently, but I still have some freezing issues (even if few and unfrequent).

I´ve also noticed they are usually related to the accelerometer (my guess). Actually if I don´t tilt the phone I can play around with the phone for hours and I experience no freezes at all.

I´ve experienced frequent freezes when I tilt the phone and hold it parallel to the ground, and even more often when running Labyrinth Lite. In this last scenario, the phone hangs for a few seconds continually and I cannot play at all.

Do you think messing around with the winmo accelerometer driver (maybe just trying different versions) could help solve this issue or is it just an issue related to current Android porting stage?

Thank you all who have made this possible, I´m sure a really stable build must be around the corner :)

is 'Screen Taps On' in Winmo? I had this problem and was pulling my hair out, then i decided to turn 'screen taps off' and 'keyboard taps' in 'system sounds and notifications' in winmo and i magically got sound. good luck
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gus_chi:
It is in fact the G-sensor driver from the kernel that is causing the freezes; not HTC Sense. Bear in mind that the Android Port is in the development stages and that the developers are working hard on correcting the issue. If you want to sync Facebook Event information with your device, why not import your FB Event information into Google Calendar? As event information is added/modified in FB, it is automatically synced/pushed into G Calendar. If you are interested in doing this, refer to the following url:

hxxp://www.insidefacebook.com/2009/02/15/how-to-sync-facebook-events-with-google-calendar/

Note that the images are a bit out dated but the process is essentially the same. It also takes a while to link up with G Calendar. It is not instant and appears to not be doing anything at first. Give it some time though and before you realize it, you have FB Event information synced on both your phone and Google calendar. :)

Hope This Helped.

Google Voice Recognition Breaks all Audio on 11th or 12th use

using the google voice recognition works 11 times, then on the 12th time the microphone icon has a red slash through it and all audio has crashed. Happens with Darkstone's FroyoHD on elegancia rom v10 with a Tmous hd2. This weird '12th use crash' happened with radios 2.10 and 2.12. I have tried several kernels as well. I just reproduced this crash with cotullas 8/31/10 kernel with all the latest drivers added to system/lib/modules and with the firmware files put into system/etc/firmware to get the wifi working.

Weird...

Well I've either broken my phone or just corrupted my WM rom so bad that it can't function anymore. This afternoon while running android my phone would just freeze up on whatever screen I had open. I pulled the battery and rebooted and windows would do the same thing. A couple minutes into running my phone in WM the screen will blink then turn green and freeze.

I did drop my phone a couple times while exercising at lunch (the battery popped out both times but no visible physical damage to screen or phone). so I hope I didn't knock something loose internally.

I'm going to try and flash the latest energy rom onto my phone and see what happens. I hope it's just corrupted because of the battery being pulled so many times today.

EDIT: I hope I didn't break the g-sensor... It seems like while running in WM it will SOD if it's left alone for a long time or I will get the green SOD whenever I move the phone. I'm now waiting for the battery to charge beyond 50% so I can flash the rom.

no music or sound

Hi,

I've installed FroyoStone yesterday with success.

Everything seems to work well.(gps, camera, phone)

But, for the ring by default, I don't have any sound or music.

I've putted a mp3 and it works. But I'm just supprised to have any other sound.

Is it normal ?

The second point is that the volume is very low.(of course I've putted it in maximum)

Is there something to do for this ?

problems with android on my hd2

Hi Guys,

i am trying to use Android on my HD2 since a while, but everytime i install a new build the first start works like a charm.

When i trun off the phone and boot into WM 6.5 again and launch Android thereafter the problem occurs.

My device will never start into Android again. If I delete all the android related files and folders, copy them again on the SD Card and start android for the first time everything is perfect, until i want to reboot again.

I saw in the first post that some ko-modules, zimage and that like can be installed seperately.

Is there something I am missing here?!?

I dont have a clue how to get android running stable on my machine.

Maybe some one can help me out here.

Thanks in advance!!

I shot small video of what new ubuntu will look like.

Unfortunately I forgot to show off the backlight DIM. (You can manually regulate it and it auto dims)

Lots of stuff is still WIP.

I'm also working on suspend, multi touch & gestures, better keyboard experience (auto hide & show) and a faster display driver. Charging works already but the driver will also need some patching.

Actually I have a huge check list as I will try to include everything you guys put on the wishlist at

http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Leo/Builds#Ubuntu_for_HD2_v0.2_Feedback

I think it is quite visible in the video that in the new maverick version of ubuntu they make full use of our CPU instructions now.

Everything got like 3x faster vs old version. Videos also play back fine. I think with the updated display driver 720p is quite possible.

The cool thing is I can help improving Ubuntu while at the same time getting quite some professional help from the Ubuntu staff. They are all excited about this.

Oh right you remember the unified Android build I mentioned ? We have some progress there. LeTama is making great efforts to make this happen now. I will let you know soon as we have something testable.

This will really boost the quality of the Android releases for HD2.

Oh right 2. This should also be mentioned. The WiFi tethering with the bcm4329 version (WiFi driver) in GIT will likely not work in any sense program.

It is known working with the Android WiFi Tethering program from the market. If somebody has more details to share you are welcome to add it in the wiki !
