IIRC the live wallpaper had already been accomplished in a previous build so at this point I'm personally more interested in seeing builds that launch easier and run more on a more reliable basis. At the rate in which people have been complaining, I was trying to prevent more confusion down the road. I apologize but I have now tried over 5 times to get 3.5 to run and I can't get past the unlock screen so what else am I supposed to say?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] buffalowings:
3.5 is working good for me, although the stock xdandroid 2.1 gsm has been the best for me
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kreitz16:
Yep, finally got in and got the wallpaper changed. Seems to run about the same as the GSM build... just not GSM.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Blubster:
Guys, again a Radio 2.10 or up is *NOT* needed. All that is required for Linux compatibility is a radio from the 2.XX.50.XX branch (TMOUS branch).

And HSPL3 is also *NOT* required.

If you don't have a TMOUS model (1GB of ROM), then your stock rom is most certainly from the 2.XX.51.XX branch which is *NOT* compatible with linux/android on HD2.

Only if you don't have a stock radio from the correct branch, you need to install HSPL (any version, as long as it is compatible with you device (beware telstra users!)).

So people with HSPL 1.42 and radio 2.08.50.08_2 for instance are good to go! No need to upgrade radio of HSPL to get linux working in this case!

But i know it is easier to advice people to get HSPL3 and radio 2.10 or up, as HSPL3 is compatible with every devices, and *FOR NOW* radio 2.10 and up are all from the 2.XX.50.XX branch.

Though if a 2.13.51.XX radio goes out, and people upgrade to this thinking they will be good for android and get that infamous fade to black screen, they will start complaining again...

So, to summerize :

- NO NEED for HSPL3 if you have another HSPL already installed to your device.

- NO NEED to flash another radio if your radio version number is like 2.XX.50.XX...

Ubuntu

I have successfully attached a mouse and keyboard to the HD2. I have used the stock phone charger adapter and connected a USB Y cable. This allows me to take power out of the wall socket charger and use the other side to connect the gender changer. From the gender changer I have connected it to a Vantec usb hub. I did notice that it does take some time for the Ubuntu to recognize the usb connected devices (Up to 5 minutes). But you can plug and unplug new devices after the bootup.

I have found that when you connect the devices up the phone will charge in windows mobile and the usb hub will react for a second. But aslong as you are sure that your phone and the hub are getting power you should be ok. I have even tried the connection without a hub and with a logitech mx5500 bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse set and it works fine.

Here is a summary of my connections:

Wall Socket -> HTC Charger -> USB Y cable ->>

The Y cable is connected to phone via a mini usb to micro usb adator.

The otherside has the gender changer leaving you with a female usb where you can plug in anything that linux can handle.

List of parts:

Y cable

USB Gender changer

female-to-female

USB mini to micro

Vantec usb hub

P.S.

I did have a Y cable that did not pass through power to both phone and hub and that caused a lot of headache.

I have also seen that the touch screen driver does work but is not calibrated properly, I don't know if anyone can help fix the calibration.

The Clock speed is too high, if I go and check the time the clock is running way too fast.

Other than that the programs load very slowly, Open office took 10 minutes, I doubt it should be that slow.

restart and use a clean sd card to test if nothing comes up after intial linux boot ..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] -NRG-:
This new build seems to boot most of the times but and feels some faster as 3, but the speed isn't as good as the "clean no sense build". It feels a bit more stable and OpenGl demos seem to run a litle bit better (it was already pretty good).

I can't get turn on the radio to get signal that only works for me in the "clean no sense" build.

The "clean no sense" build is the best for me to date.

I use radio 2.12.50.02_2 and hspl 3 and a Adata 16gb class 6 sd card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DarkStone1337:

In regards to the radio, the signal meter does not work, however the radio is actually enabled. (Try phoning your HD2 whilst booted into Android Sense) :)

ok, not sure if this helps, and yes i know that its only my 2nd or third post.

Have tmous with radio 2.10.50 stock, and running spb shell, not that it matters.

What I did was load darkstone's v3.5 and it was getting choppy, so i change to the nexus one wallpaper, and it was still choppy. So i try to turn off my phone in android by holding down power. I was expecting the blue screen to pop up, which it didn't, and was able to power down regularly. The interesting part (to me at least) is that when i go back in to my sd card, there is no, i repeat, no FSCK0000 file, which i found odd. then when i load up android, it kept the nexus one wallpaper. upon loading and subsequent blue screen, sure enough after resetting, FSCK0000 was there. Not sure if this helps the devs, and sorry if i wasted yet another post. Don't want any flame wars starting, but this is not a thank you, or a when will this be ready, or a i didn't read the whole thread and i'm asking a question that's been asked and answered 30 times. I've been keepin up with my reading, and if this in fact has been posted previously, i will castrate myself and burn a hole through my laptop.

Your radio must be 2.XX.50.XX

2.XX.51.XX (e.g.2.07.51.22_2) won't work

You need HSPL for updating your radio.

If you already have HSPL, you don't need to upgrade your HSPL.

You can use the 2.10 radio in the radio link. It will work.

HSPL3 Link: xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893

Radio Link: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787

You need CustomRUU to flash radio. Don't worry about what CustomRUU says, you will not lose settings and data. (It won't hard reset when upgrading only the Radio ROM)

Custom RUU Link: xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4798017&postcount=1

WHEN you have 2.XX.50.XX radio (e.g. 2.10), it will pass that linux text screen and boot.

This 2.XX.50.XX radio restriction may no longer apply in future builds.

A question

With the linux kernel already working, why is it that we have linux and android builds, but no maemo yet?

Do they need different drivers? If not, what is really required to port a maemo?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcordes:
No, maemo doesn't need any special drivers. Afaik it does not make dependencies on kernel level - actually no Linux distribution shouldn't. one reason why some label android as no real Linux distro.

There are no maemo builds cause nobody tried it yet :) If you want to give it a go and have something to share let me know and I will add it in the build section.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Rouz.:
That would be interesting. Are there any maemo dump on XDA? Or maybe a build for any other htc device?

Given this is not reported in first posts, let me share an issue I encounter with the nakes Android build.

It boots fine, and I am able to open a few apps, such as messaging and contacts. I tried to set an activesync account, but it would not accept the connexion.

Now the real issue is the phone, as the HD2 freezes completely whenever I try to place a call; the freeze occurs even before I press the calling button. I tried calling myself after a reboot, and again it freezes for good, until a soft reset. I use radio 2.12.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] serrias:
Hey, Not to get hopes up, This is theoretical..

But @ the people who are claiming it will

never

be as good as native HTC android devices... (No-body in specific here).

We could well have a build as fast as devices that run it natively, It can be as smooth and clean as a EVO/Desire/Nexus, Yes , drivers need to be written and everything needs to be developed, and hopefully this will all be done and completed well (no idea on the time-frame, Or If it will happen).

There is possibility that it can run better than other android snapdragon devices, Since we boot through the Linux kernel and the system drivers are loaded from there, There is possibility to over-clock the CPU to higher speeds before booting android, This is purely speculation.

By doing so, We could achieve the 1.25+ Ghz speeds as if it were stock. A 25% performance increase over other stock devices sounds good to me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
Agreed.... I think a lot of people here don't realize that. Look at the history of all the other android ports for winmo devices... some have been developed for over 2 years and still aren't as smooth and functional as an android phone. People are putting way too high of expectations on this port. HD2 is a winmo phone... it will probably never run android as smooth as an android phone.

For people that say that it's possible.... I agree, its possible... if we had the resources of HTC or a team of developers like HTC has with all the time and resources they have. Look at all the other ports... these things take a long time. It may get to be close to perfect and run as smooth as a native android phone... but it will probably take years to get to that point, especially since this is a project that is being done for free by devs in their spare time. It will be awesome once we can boot into android from winmo when we want to play around or run certain apps, but don't get your hopes up thinking that this will run as smooth as the evo and that you will be able to completely substitute android for winmo on the HD2 and have all functionality.... at least anytime soon. Like I said, do your research and see how the android ports run on the other winmo phones and see how long it took to get there. The devs are doing a great job and making great progress, but don't have irrational expectations of this port.

TMOUS Leo 1.5 compared to the Leo 1.0 International editon

Hi Guys, i know i asked this before and i get what your saying for the basic hardware however there is something i think i need to correct you on and that will make a difference.

The TMOUS is different hardware, it has a 1gb rom and that need to be address in the storage allocation sizing. I know the ram is the same in hardware between all HD2 models but surely the o/s needs to knwo how to address the full rom size being larger than 512mb on the WW edition.

(after all this is why i specificallyt bought the TMOUS model for use in australia) ;)

Oh and awesome work on the dev so far, i can taste android :P aside from all arguments i bought the hd2 to run windows and i just want to be able to say to all those wm haters that i can choose to use android or wm, something that no other phone such as an iPhone or specific android phone is capable of. +1 for choice :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Crash1983:
Do you think this difference causes the mdp_irq error? I don't think so, because some users here are not having this problems with the european hd2! At least it seems...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] norgan:
no i am not saying at all that it causes any problems, just that once the kernel is working it may not be able to address the full rom size of the TMOUS.

since the hardware is bascially identical other then the rom size, i doubt there will be any real differences needed in the basic kernel.
