it works for me on Froyostone v2 build..

would'nt install from the market had to find the apk (google) and do an adb install.

Have you tried unmounting your SD card before you download/install from the market? I'm sure someone else reported that this method works.

I hope they bring the full game out soon.. done all the levels on the demo and itching for more (or should that be tweeting for more!)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mantuen:
hey i'm new to mounting how does that works??

i installed auto-mount from the market but i still can't install the game

which program do you use for mounting and how does it works ?

thanks in advance
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xhanay:
Make sure you unmount the SD card before installation then remount after installation and that should do it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xhanay:
unmount is in the settings for the sd card, at the home screen press the middle button, select settings, choose sdcard, unmount then install game from market then remount..done!

A few days ago i had to reset my hd2 in android because it had crashed. Ever since then most of my apps force close when i open them, and a lot of them have lost game data such as games have lost scores etc. Even the flash player in the browser doesnt seem to work. I can't even backup the apps and move to a new build because titanium backup force closes. Does anyone know why all this would happen? I am using mattc leo w/sense 1.6 with 2.12.50 radio.

Thanks

Robotic Voice Cure!

The Windows Mobile 6.5 default ROM that came with the from the manufacturer is responsible for the Robotic Voice. Flash your HD2 with MIRI's latest Windows Mobile ROM or Energy Windows Mobile ROM and the robotic voice in your calls will be gone.

This solution has been given several time in this forum. Search the forum for the ROM. Also go through instructions on how to flash before you attempt it.

Sept 18 kernel

Not sure if anyone else noticed or not, but the new Sept 18 evo kernel now uses the real Wi-Fi MAC address. I did not check with the Sept 13 evo kernel so I may be late with this announcement. I have not seen anyone post about it so I assume this is a new development.

Thanks to everyone involved in the project. I never use WM anymore!

EDIT:

I have been using the new kernel for about 5 hours now, I had to reload Kindle as it refused to open any pay for books. after a complete uninstall/reinstall all is well. My cellnet connection keeps crapping out and the only way to clear the indicator that it is connected is to bounce thru airplane mode and back. Cellnet works then, in the meantime wi-fi works even tho cellnet says it is connected but dead. I have not had any screen freezes yet with this kernel. I will continue to test and report back.

before asking I have to tell you, I am an idiot no doubt about it...

My question is..

installing Android on my htc hd2, is it very complicated? is it done in one step or several different installs? I really want to do this but haven't got the nerves for it, what if I F up my phone.

I'm pretty capable when it comes to "tech" stuff and I'm working with IT-support, but this phone upgrading stuff is nerve wrecking to me. If anyone of you have a heart ;) please point me to a "installing android for idiots/morons" and I will be your biggest fan forever :D

Don't worry, it isn't hard. You can't screw up your phone either.

You will however need to flash a non stock WinMo ROM and Radio.

If you do, check to find out about flashing a new WinMo ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734238 and Radio http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787.

Just to discuss some new findings:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=785367

So, apparently, we now have an HTC Desire HD ROM out in the wild. More info about what that potentially means here:

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/18/htc-desire-hd-rom-gets-dumped-ported-chopped-and-screwed-o/

Man, this must be confusing for the devs... I mean, once you start working on the Nexus One Froyo build, the EVO Kernel goes open source AND NOW this build is making the rounds...

How will they consolidate all of this? Or, will everyone just make whatever they want? There's so many builds to choose from already...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
Well its ok to disagree!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Phenomenon:
Anything new so far?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tsrzealot:
While I agree with you that it cannot be stressed enough what great work dcordes has done and is doing, I also have to disagree with you in terms of the whole respect thing. I think (and I sincerely hope that Lukas perceives it the same way) that he is being given a lot of respect by a lot of people here.

On the other hand, even though some individuals have had an outstanding part in the whole project, there are more people involved than just dcordes or Cotulla, just to name the most "famous" ones... Dcordes will always be remembered and will always stand out for initiating this, but he wouldn't be able to handle this thing alone (at least not at the speed we are experiencing right now ;)). This shouldn't be a "battle" about who is the most "valuable" or whatever developer, I think respect can be an unlimited resource. I can say for my part that I have enough of it to give it to anyone who deserves it. And there are many who do!

So far, I haven't seen a single post giving personal respect to Markinus, LeTama or so many others. For example, have ppl. like Gauner1986 ever been mentioned (correct me if I'm wrong, but he seems to take an active part in the developing and the IRC discussions)??

So let me use this post to show my respect to dcordes (again ;)), but most of all to the whole team of developers who are working on this (especially the ones who are less "famous"). Great job guys, you continue to amaze me. Props to you all!

EDIT: I just realized what you were talking about while reading another thread. You're totally right that when someone is thanking specific ppl for making all this possible and leave out dcordes, they're really missing something. Nonetheless, let's not forget about others who are more easily left out.

The new 9/20 zImage gives me really slow bootups and screen of death. The 9/13 version worked flawlessly, didn't even get any touchscreen freezes with it. I used to get frustrated playing Homerun Battle 3D when the touchscreen freezes, I couldn't aim/swing at the ball. With the 9/13 image I was playing for quite a while without any freezes.

thank you for seeing what I was talking about. You are very correct in saying I left some people out. I just noticed that cotulla was being targeted as the very person who did it all. I know thats not true because I read the logs. I think that everyone who has been directly involed with the kernal needs to be mentioned.

I am currently going down the line of people and donating when I get paid.

I just think that when giving props we should include everyone on the project. That statement goes for myself also.

Im sure you didnt mean to seem ungrateful but you should really be careful how you phrase your statements as people may take offense.

Many people have worked for months to bring Android to your phone and not charging you a penny. All this has come together in a relatively short time and if you do it properly then can be an extremely stable Operating System. Remember that this is still basically a work in progress and if you are only interested in a 100% stable phone then you might be better off with 2 plastic cups and a piece of string (forgive the scarasm). Then again someone may come along and install apple OS on the plastic cups and it will be useless :rolleyes:

It will all come together soon enough just be patient and contribute wherever you can and you will be rewarded :)

First of all, I want to thank everyone who's been working on this project. It's a really awesome thing to have the ability to run two different operating systems on your phone without messing one or the other up somehow. That takes a lot of developing talent. I do have a Vibrant now but I've been experimenting with Android using my HD2 so that if I screw up I can just start over without worrying. I just had one question. I saw that the Desire HD rom was leaked the other day, and since this is basically just a European Evo, I was curious if there are plans to port the new Sense over to the HD2? That would really be cool, and I know I can't help but I'll be waiting eagerly! :-)

I'm just curious, does anyone know the timeline of when a actual ROM will be ready for the HD2. I've played around with the SD roms but looking at my phone after a few hours and finding that it has the Black screen of death just got the best of me. So I'm gonna wait. But I was wondering how many months are we out before it comes down the pipeline.

Hi Nianus,

I'm not sure where sms's are natively stored, but for peace of mind I'd install SMSBackup from the market, and then copy the folder (and the file(s) within it from your SD Card (SDCard/SMSBackup) to your computer before formatting. Copy it back after formatting, install your new build, reinstall SMSBackup, and restore :)

Heating issue put me off from running android as daily os

Hi everyone, despite many releases of android for HD2, none of them can resolve the heating issue at the bottom back of my HD2. This is the only reason I do not dare to run the ported android for long as I concern that it would damage my HD2.

Is anyone here not having this problem or know how to solve it? I'm running stock ROM with Hardspl2, WWE 1.66.707.1 and radio rom of 2.10.

Read the complete first post *HERE* and it should explain what you need to do. You will need to update your Radio and possibly your Rom.

Android is run from the Storage Card so to get back into Windows Mobile all you need to do is reboot your phone and WinMo will load.

Remember anything released will have very little testing done on it and may be buggy so if you are going away you might want to stick with running it from Storage Card for now or you may find you have no phone and no way to get Windows back on it.

Mattc EVO

You guys have to try out the new Mattc build based on EVO kernel, this is awsome. Of course other ones such as Shub and Darkstone are,too, very well done, I personally find Mattc 1.8 very reliable so far.

http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736545

Note: The booting process for this build is very different as you shouldnt panic.

Quote: READ THIS!! You will see a strange screen at boot. It may have different images or lines in black/white and will appear to be frozen. This is normal, just be patient and it will move past this. Also, there is no RMNET - not even an option - for this build. PPP is stable and no longer freezes.

After download I recommand to replace the zimage, hret, and the other one i forgot with these ones
