Black screen of nothing happening.

Ok, so I decided I would try android on my own and answer my own question (see page before this one) and I've only gotten as far as loading haret and then after a lot of white text flying by, the white test stays still then after a few minutes the screen goes black (but backlight still on) and nothing happens...any suggestions?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ashrak_22:
Which one are you using? Cotulla or Desire? Have tried the other one?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tundra84:
I'm trying cotulla, the one on this thread.

The white text just stops flying by and it ends up saying:

mounting / dev/block/loop0 on /data failed: Invalid argument

failed

failed to mount /data

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

/# (then a flashing cursor)

then it just goes to black after a few minutes.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] J-L-C:
Yeah, after all the white writing mine fades out and then just stays black with the backlight on.

To be honest i am a noob - ive installed hpsl3, although my radio version is 2.xx.51.xx which i heard may be the problem - how can i fix this?? ive searched but cant find anything on which radio version is best and how to change it?

Thanks in advance guys!

IT WORKS BRILLIANT FOR ME.

Problems with camera and microfone but i think it can be fixed, if I can help with testing please tell me I'am oppend to faster development of android for htc hd2, even do it will take a long time.

one thing about android is that the UI is not so frendly, I like windows mobile. The change is in the speed I think so.

Well I finally got it to work after using another memory card but now I face another issue...how to get past that pesky sign in screen! There is absolutely no wifi here and I don't have a data plan. And even if I did I have no bars nor service here (in another country at the moment). So how do I get past that?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] J-L-C:
Ill try that -thanks!! just in advance, any way of being able to choose what i boot into when i turn it on?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tundra84:
I had the same issue. Try using another microsdhc card. Class 4 at the very least.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
You can skip past that on start up of android. Then when you get to a wifi or 3G you can add your settings.

Thanks again in advance!! :D

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
that might be the "job control turned off" problem some of us are running into with the Cotulla build.

The Desire build works fine, but on the Cotulla build when it goes in "hyper mode" it loads android fine (except it's in hyper mode), when loading normally by doing the "start haret as soon as sense loads" method it goes regular speed, but gives a "job control turned off" hang and you just get the blinking cursor for all eternity.

I'd suggest trying the Desire build for now, and wait for a more stable Nexus build. The amount of work being done and the speed with which this is coming along right now is astounding, and more stable builds are coming out very quickly. Unless someone knows a workaround on the Job Control hang just sit back and wait for a build that works, or use Desire for now.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tundra84:
Same as me man!

I had the exact same issue and you can see I resolved it by using a different microsdhc card! (class 4) Just read a couple pages before this and you'll see.

So yeah, try using a different, faster sd card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tundra84:
Couple questions.

1. Should android be a bit sluggish?

2. Why is it the apps don't seem to "fit" the screen?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] J-L-C:
Thats the one i think! ah so not just me then - i just used the file from here... so where can i find this desire build??

Will i need to re-flash anything? got to say everytime i do it i hold my breath haha
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
http://gamesquare.co.uk/desire.html

here's the Desire build, just delete the files that the Cotulla build extracted on your SD card, and extract this new file to your SD, then do like before open CLRCAD then open haret. Should work fine. It's a little sluggish but that might be my class2 SD, it's still pretty awesome though.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] steady6:
Why are you guys trying to fix this?. The guys already told you they are working on the issues. It has nothing to do with a better micro sd card or custom ROM . We need to wait until they fix this. This is only a preview for us to see that is possible to run android on the HTC HD2. We need to wait! Let them do there thing. :mad:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
well the more we try to fix it the more we can offer up what works and help the devs isolate the cause.

I got past the "Job Control Turned Off" hang without changing an SD card. Here's what I did.

1) loaded the Cotulla build in "hyper mode" I don't know how to force do this yet, but how I do it is make sure the phone has been on for at least 2 minutes, then load haret, it goes hyper mode.

2) once it loads completely, I go thru the set-up, then change the backlight- turn off setting to 30 mins. Then I play with a few pages, add a widget or 2.

3) long press the red hang up hard button on the phone, hit "turn off"

4) once the device is off, turn it on and do the "quick load" method of starting haret as soon as sense allows you to, this gets it to load normal speed instead of hyper mode.

5) the build should load totally fine now, in normal speed.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Blubster:
If you are using the files from post 2 (which i guess you are, there is no default.txt on the other archive), then i think you should use the other one... :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Blubster:
Try a 2.XX.50 radio, it should work...

With a 2.10.51.XX, i think it still would give the same result!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j03:
I too got fading text... But it's probably something to do with forgetting to copy the files to the root of the memory card (I put them in a folder). I'll give it another go now.

edit:

I tried copying to the root of the memory card, still no dice. Then I tried formatting the card using the FAT32 filesystem. Still no dice. I'm flashing the 2.10.50.08 radio now. Wish me luck.

edit 2: I'm getting somewhere. I've got the IRQ Error now, which i'm guessing is better than the fading text error. I recorded it happening, if anyone wants me too I will upload it. I'll try with a different memory card now.

edit 3: Uh-oh. Different Card, Same error.

If you're interested, I'm using:

Stock 1.66 WWE ROM

2.10.50.08 Radio

I've tried a 256mb SanDisk card, and a 1GB SanDisk Ultra II Card.

First I want to say, wow, this is some work, and the professionalism is noticeable! Thumbs up! Would be a real fun thing to show all the "mini screen" desire ppl that we got this running on our Leo hehe.

As for that, I have a pretty n00bish question probably.

the desire has the same chipset right? I understand that its not possible to just simply port one device's software to another, but I dont really understand why? The screen is different, so a custom driver has to be made. but than again, im a n00b in this :) just a simple sys-admin at some company, interested in customization of my phone in any way. ;)

One way or another, keep up the real good work! :D

I have tried several versions android now but no matter what I do (disable auto light in WM, play with sliders, etc...) Android has no control of the backlight

If I leave auto light on in Windows it stays at whatever level it was before I run haret. If I disable the auto light it just stays at the level I chose in Windows.

I am using sound and display settings from Android to try to control the backlight ( display on froyo) but no reactions

This happens on coutulla, desire v2, desire v2.5 and froyo. Also from stock tmo Rom and flashed energy rom.

I'm just curious if anyone else has had the "disable wm auto backlight" trick not work for them and what they did to fix it.

This fix usually allows the backlight to work period. at least with earlier builds, the backlight would just shut off without doing this. Nowhere does it say it allows you to adjust the backlight settings in android, so I imagine that it doesn't,
