I would try Miri's 21908 WM6.5 v17 rom (standard version) as its the one im using and everything is working perfectly (apart from the charging issue which is known about).

I will add those 2 roms to the Robot voice section in the FAQ for peoples reference.

I dont think it has anything to do with the com5 roms as before I was using Duttys 21909 (com2) rom and it had the robot voice.

Well, I'm sure it'll be different depending how much You choose to sync etc. I have everything on manual sync, except for syncing contacts and calendar with google, and I have had about a 40% drain in 6 hours. I've made a few calls, sent some messages, checked my mail a few times, surfed the web for maybe 15 minutes, played doodle jump for 10 minutes, and of course spent some time setting up the phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mskip:
Read my review (link in the FAQ) it gives you a good indication *HERE* I updated it this morning after a night on standby.

Excessive battery drain is still an issue and thats the only thing that is stopping this from becoming a day to day useable Rom.

Hi All,

I changed the dual boot cab from yozgatg.

It now puts clrcad.exe to the startup folder so if you boot android you'll have sound. I also put the skin in from sk8inmonk.

So credits for yozgatg and sk8inmonk.

Only boots android directly from the root of the storage card!

This has an autoboot option in 10 seconds or in 3 seconds.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dangerously:
If Android for HD2 project was complete, then asking this would be relevant. I can say that we all have this issue as you posted (you are not the only one)...

I read that the target, as stated by Cotulla on IRC, for completion (flashing to NAND/internal memory) is slated for some time in September. Things that he, and the team need to complete are all the missing features, such as battery calibration. The things in green on the wiki need a link for a feature drill down. For example, proximity sensor works (and is green on the wiki) but is it linked to power management? Does it only work during calls or also in other apps?

For people who are using Android as their daily OS, I would suggest to wait before doing so. The reason for this is due to the poor implementation of power management and battery calibration. If the battery does not charge and drain properly, you have the risk of slowly degrading the life of the battery. This may not be noticeable right away but if you wait a week or two you might see a difference with the battery on the current Android builds and back in WinMo...

No update to Dan's Froyo build yet, but it's coming soon.

Hopefully it isn't just the current one with Sense as I don't like it on Android anyway.

Using Desire v5 with dual boot and Miri Rom on a Tmobile USA HD2. Working great, has not freeze since then. Played any games that was free in the android market.

Battery charges (note: Select (Active Sync) before booting into android) This allows me to charge when running android. Only small problem is the small orange light on the top left stays on even when unplugged.

Had to type epc.tmobile.com for APN for 3G data.

Camera is maxed out at 3MP.

Battery consumption is good for now but i'm pretty sure that it will be better in time. Overall no problems what so ever.

What on earth are you doing with an HD2 then? Would have thought the jesusphone would be more your style :p

If you have the ability to copy .cab files to your phone (and if you're here I'd be surpirsed if you didn't) then grab something like PHM and copy the cab file to, then install it on your phone (within in WinMo). Can't stress enough though that playing with your registry runs a big risk of screwing up your phone, so back up everything before you try.

App drawer swiping works for me...you have toswipe along the bottom area of the screen though. I prefer the vertical scroll list anyway.

Charging works if the unit is wall-plugged before starting haret

Pinch to zoom works for me too.

As I see it the issues are:

1. Apps running fullscreen (openGL, etc)

2. Video recording.

3. 2D scrolling in maps/browser needs a speed boost if possible.

These are a few niggles in an otherwise AMAZING froyo port.

The desire build is absolutely excellent as well. But froyo is definitely the build with the greatest potential.

App resolution?

Hello,

Great work guys!

Android on my HD2 has been running without problems for the past 3 days. I've been using Froyo, but switched to Desire version 5 when it came out. Aside from the battery drain issue, has anyone noticed a problem with the Apps between builds?

On the Froyo build, installing apps such as Evernote would give you an app that doesn't run in full screen, and looks like it was designed for another phone with a different res screen. I only noticed it was a problem after switching to Desire V5, because all the same apps are working properly now.

Could it be that the app store thinks this is a different phone?

I'm new to Android so I don't know how the market works that out, but I hadn't seen anyone talk about it before.

The desire rom I believe is 2.1 and the froyo build is 2.2 so yes there is a bit of fragmentation on the market. I believe most apps will tell you what version they are.

But thats why they look different on each build. I liked the froyo build but my 3g data isnt nearly as stable as it is on the desire rom!

I took a look at the evernote app. It does not say which its for. I maybe be a scaling problem. But as far as Ive seen most apps scale normally.

I would like to mention for anyone using a stock TMO-US 2.10 ROM with radio 2.08 the above review is 100% applicable. I wanted to mention this since the reviewer is using a non-stock ROM and didnt want to dig through 5000+ posts to see if anyone had posted this. ...And I thought the quote above was a great review :p

So, if you dont want to read through the entire thing above, here's the executive summary (as it relates to the WinMo 2.10 ROM w/ Radio 2.08)

Still camera works, must long press on-screen to take picture, despite a prompt saying touch the optical trackball to do so.

Video camera has same 'optical trackball' statement onscreen, but long press does not activate recording. I've found no way around this.

You must manually enter T-Mobile's APN information so that internet and MMS works. A Google search can get you this information. Once entered, 3G speeds are available and work fine.

No ringtones or alert tones are available. The above quote has information how to correct this.

Able to pair a Motorola bluetooth headset. I have not tried a Stereo bluetooth headset though.

Famous 'Lock Screen Death' (when phone goes auto-standby or the End Call button is pressed so the screen turns off, the phone would never turn back on [such as is currently an issue with the Froyo 2.2 port] except when you removed the battery) is gone and the lock screen works fine.

Hitting the 'Home' button on the HD2 allows you to swap between Sense and the Android UI flawlessly.

Scrolling through menus (such as hitting the Windows key) seems sluggish (likely a graphics driver issue), but NOT unusable.

Phone has issues distinguishing between taps and swipes (items under your finger momentarily highlighted in green)

SMS works

Sorry if this has already been posted about or if this is this is wrong place to ask but have used search and couldn't find anything.

I tried to boot the Desire build on my HD2 but after a few seconds teh white writing looked as if it just melted and froze which was really weird and concerned my allot.

I pulled out my battery and rebooted into windows but now I have noticed that when my white HD2 splash comes up I have a very distinct brighter part of back light I think like a smudge of light behind screen.

I did disable auto backlight when booting btw.

Can anybody explain what went wrong or if I have done any damage and will it correct itself.

Again sorry if this has already been discussed, if so can you link me to correct place.

Can you post the picture? as far as the white text thats normal. it even looks like its melting away at one point atleast for me. maybe try formatting your sd card with no other files on the root If you are using desire v5.
