Thank you very much for the clarification spi!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dharvey4651:
I think just about all of us are willing to donate for a complete port. You don't need to post this to let the dev's know. Trust me.. They've already read maybe 500 posts exactly like yours and know damn well that they stand to make some serious money for making this happen.

I'll tell you what you're doing wrong. You haven't read the entire thread. If you had you would know that this isn't a fully functional - VERY BETA port.

If you had read any of my previous posts, you would have seen that literally 5 posts above yours I encouraged users to read the whole thread before posting, especially if they're a new member and don't know what they're doing.

Obviously you didn't follow these instructions. Go back and read AT LEAST the first 2 posts and last 10 pages of this thread. That should give you a better idea of what you did wrong..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HD2Owner:
thanks alot.

can someone please recompile the current builds with this file?

i'm experiencing bluescreens before i'm able to copy the file (or delete/rename the existing file).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malisha1:
Can you please describe what this file fixes? So everyone are aware of the changes

Thank you

It was found that deleting the copybit.msm7k.so file reduced or eliminated the BSOD but it caused performance to suffer. I replaced the file with the copybit.qsd8k.so file and BSOD was still practically gone but performance was the same as with the file.

It is just a band-aid, the real fix should be in the kernel and I'm sure the devs are working on it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cjmdaniels:
haven't tried it yet, but i will when i get off of work

im sure they are working on releasing the new build with

the gsm, htc sense and copybit fix

thanks for posting!

When I boot into ubuntu, it does not recognize a mouse or keyboard, and I have tried different kinds. I am currently using the stock data cable connected to a gender changer then to a powered usb hub. I then plus the mouse and keyboard into the hub. I have tried different mice and keyboards, and so far no luck. I also know to connect before booting ubuntu. I thought usb support was built into the ubuntu kernal. What am I doing wrong?

By the way, I have read the past 100 or so pages, and have been keeping track of this thread for a few months now, and there has been little to nothing written about ubuntu. Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] curiousGeorge:
Truly a shame, in my opinion. Android is just swapping one (currently working) phone OS for another. It's essentially an extension of the ROM flashing fever. Ubuntu is transforming the device into a computer, empowering it with capabilities found in no phone OS (barring perhaps the likes of MeeGo).

That said, try looking at message, kern, or boot in /var/log -- does it mention anything about a failure to initialize USB device? (Or anything at all about USB?)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ukerfanatic13:
Kind of random note here, but if you have a problem with people posting questions that have already been answered, just flag it so the admins cant delete it. All these posts lecturing people about posting already answered questions are just as much spam as the posts they are complaining about. Just saying
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ukerfanatic13:
Is this file going to be in the phone or in ubuntu?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dharvey4651:
Sorry but i completely disagree. I read this entire thread in 4 hours.

If you don't have the time to read the entire thread then at least read the first page and the last 10 pages. Currently there isn't a complete port and so there is not going to be a "Complete Tutorial".

Sorry. Tough luck. Better luck next time.

Start reading now and by the time the port is finished you'll know how to use it. ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ukerfanatic13:
ya, so I'm still looking for help with this. If anyone has successfully attached and used a mouse/keyboard in ubuntu on their hd2, could you please detail exactly what you did from beginning to end. It might help me discover what I am doing wrong, and will help other users attach it correctly as well. Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dharvey4651:
Finally someone who get's the hint... Thanks for posting this. It feels good to know that some users actually want to help make my life easier.

It's a lot more work to delete the garbage/repetitive/junk post + lecture than to just delete the original post in question.

I hope more users will start taking the initiative and do exactly what ukerfanatic13 is suggesting you all do.

Thank you for doing this! Love Xandroid on my HD2! Hope for an stable version soon!

Just need to say: Pleas read (or search) if you got something you need help for. This i my first time doing something like this AND I GOT IT TO WORK(ish) :p ! Everything you need to know is in the forum! it's really hard to read this thread when everyone ask for the same thing over and over and over again!

WAIT FOR A "HOW TO" IF YOU DONT GET IT RIGHT!

Thank's DEV! You save my HD2
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
Doesn't work yet.....all versions so far are unstable with any radio or combo. Drivers need to be acquired since about 50 percent of the Android functions will call for these system drivers and cause who knows what. So right now everyone is just mix matching files, radios, roms, android versions and causing crazy havoc. Follow the IRC channel and as they get stable drivers we can test them. Right now, I don't think anyone can tell you which version of anything will work. Many are putting together tests and they are uncontrolled.

It's like a science experiment with no guidelines or rules. It ends up a mess.

We need to start with a wiki page containing known things that work. Then progress and eliminate things that don't work. Document our work so we don't repeat mistakes and mess up our devices...

Let's focus on doing the above and we will have Android working stable very shortly.. If we keep going like the last 200 post it's going to be a long roller coaster...:rolleyes:

Close a thread doesn't mean delete it.

Anyway had a successful boot into 2.12.50, got the wave error so going to dig through and find the fix for that. One thing I did notice was after loading the camera the screen flipped upside down and all the touch functions flipped with it. Hard keys seemd to work fine will re-read the thread and look for obvious fixes but so far a very good start!

Ok that is it.

There are only a handful of devs in this thread, which should make it impossible for this to get to 300 pages of posts.

We cannot (and will not) clean this unholy mess every 5 minutes. There have been several warnings from different mods about this and I simply cannot stand the fact that they spend hours cleaning this and users simply pay no attention.

@OP and dev team only,

Contact me via pm about this thread which I am about to close. I will personally find you another thread where you can develop in peace.

If you are not part of the dev team, please don't pm me!!!

a question reguarding the port

im not one of the people who didnt read.. so i allow myself to ask you if android on the hd2 WILL take full adv from hardware?

and can we get same game experience as presented with the evo/nexus?

(same resolution + same gpu + hopefully same os + same things related to games lol - the only thing is different is that the os is loading from the storage card: might this affect the game experience? ).

oc im talkin bout when android is stable.

ok now you can flame me :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] domineus:
that's the problem

people don't read I mean granted users want to help - at least some but if someone isn't reading or something else what can honestly be done?

I think that's one issue why the topic was locked. No one is like...reading anything. I mean not even the first 2 posts. Just gimme gimme gimme

There's a plethora of information here and its helped me learn a bit about android but the problem is it is overrun by users that don't read - even the first posts

Blank Screen after Initiating Panel

I get a blank screen right after initial run. I have tried different versions. Any idea?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] domineus:
The experience of the nexus, evo and hd2 are different devices. Different internal components and a different experience. The only thing that relates the three devices is the snapdragon processor and that's it!

GPU isn't the same, resolution is the same thankfully and porting OS once it has begun has been fortunate thanks to the developers. But the differences are myriad

Again don't expect this to really take off immediately it will take a year or two and by then there will be better android devices.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] eeeeeee:
they have exactly the same gpu integrated in the snapdragon chipset, what do you expect??\

GPU on nexus,htc hd2, and htc evo (and probably more): adreno 200 z430. completely same.

Can everyone just be civil? I don't understand it... Back before Android became a major part of this forum, people were laid back and flame wars didn't happen so often. Now that Android has become a major part of XDA, it seems the heat has gone up quite a bit and users are all on edge and don't hesitate to drop the bomb and torch someone for asking a question.

I know I know... "It's been answered a million times".

I was contacted by several of the developers asking me to stop cleaning the thread. They said that they created the thread so you guys could just sit back and chat about what is currently available and what will be available and what you hope to be available, etc... But the flaming and arguing is just out of control...

Loosen up.. More than likely the thread won't be going anywhere any time soon as this is still the chief way of informing users about what is going with the Android port but acting like idiots and fighting all day WILL get it closed again... It's absolutely amazing... Since the thread was reopened EARLIER TODAY, there's already arguing and flaming going on... It's entirely unnecessary...

CHILL OUT!

Don't make me have to post this message again...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zelendel:
I agree totally. I would really hate to have to start sending people on Vacation from the forums because they cant stop fighting. It is getting real close to that point. I try to be laid back about all this and understand that it is very exciting times for those that have been waiting to put android on the HD 2 but come on it is nothing to fight about. So please be nice and try and search before hand to save some of the flames.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tbot:
I just found out about this about nowish!! Anyways, I read thru the first two posts with known issues and what not, but mainly wanted to respond specifically to the issue of the cursor blinking rapidly. On both versions of android available to download, one w/ and one w/o the sense GUI, the first two boots of each had this issue, on the third and following boots, the cursor blinked normally. I don't know of what help this could be, not sure where to even look to provide help.

Regardless of the cursor blink speed, android would boot up and run, but of course I was exploring EVERYTHING and could get it to crash just about right away.

Also noticed, the back hardware button would not only go back, but would initiate the "volume up" and show the ringer volume increase window.

Hope this helps, I'll be playing around more with this, so if someone would be willing to PM me some of the files I should be looking at for changes (as far as the cursor deal) I'd be more than happy to provide.

also noticed now that I'm back in windows mobile, the external speaker no longer works, i.e. speaker phone...playing music....watching a video, it all plays thru the earpiece speaker.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] erick10:
Not that I want to flame anyone and I understand many of us want to see android on our HD2s but read the rules on the first page the OP has posted.

Rules for posting

* Don't ask for progress/news - I am doing my best to keep you updated about any progress in the second post and on twitter

* Don't report already known problems. In most cases know about it already. If you are not sure please use the search function first !

* Never go offtopic

* Avoid reporting about your testing experience unless you really have something useful

Just look what the last rule says. "AVOID REPORTING ABOUT YOUR TESTING EXPERIENCES UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING USEFUL"

We have too many posts from senior members and junior members posting about their experiences with running android and obtaining BSOD. You also don't need to post questions asking if you should switch radios because Android is not running, its been asked and answered so you know the answer.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Knucklessg1:
I have been keeping up with this thread for about 6 weeks now reading all posts page by page as they appear, and i am left with an important question, since i got the first version of android, it loads and runs for about 15/20 sec as everyone knows, but there is a new build that runs for 15 minutes before crashing, is the download link on the front page constantly updated with a new version of android when released, or do i have to search the thread for the updated version of android + sense? if i must search, can someone post the link to the page which the link is on? thanks for everything guys!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vikramdhani:
well the new versions will always be posted on the first page or if they are not then there will be information about them in 1 or 2 page since the owner of the thread will always post information there for everyone, so you do not have to go through hundered`s of pages to look for a new version
