Save settings?

Which file in the "Desire sense build" stores all the settings and programs you have installed, from market place etc

Because when i update the build i have to start everything again

And in version 2.5 i could put the phone in and out of sleep however in version 3 its just doesnt wake up?

PS I KNOW THIS IS EARLY TEST VERSION THIS IS JUST GENERAL CHIT CHAT

PSS EXCELLENT WORK!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] J-L-C:
Works!! awesome, thanks man!

still a couple of issues but you guys are doing a great job!! cant wait till this can be used on a daily basis instead of windows!

Same!

That same thing happened to me with the cotulla build. I believe it has something to do with the android keymapping protocol. Although what could cause the keys to map to different functions randomly is a bit beyond my depth of understanding I fear...:confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] acessford101:
First, did you have the usb mouse plugged is and the external power also on before you started ubuntu? If so, the easiest thing to use till you come to something easy to use is a powered usb hub and just attach an adapter to go to the phone as if it was plugged into the comp. I have had great luck with a setup like that, albeit i actually soldered an oem hd2 cable into the hub.

Working on a battery powered solution right now with 2 of the hd2 batterys. Just trying to make it look nice and be functional:cool:.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
Looks good, but only ran for about 10 seconds before the screen went blank.

And at last everything is contained in a root folder as opposed to spread out in the root of the memory card. Will Make swapping between builds a lot easier.

Will do further testing.

EDIT - What a superb build. I changed the screen time out to 30 mins and started testing. Wi-fi works perfectly. Sound works perfectly. No graphics glitches at all. Marketplace works perfectly. Downloaded one of my favourite games (paper toss) and it installed fine and runs a treat with smooth graphics. The only thing is, unlike the latest Desire builds, it doesn't run full screen. Unfortunately, the sleep mode bug is still there (although I'm sure you know this) and my phone is still getting quite hot while it's being run.

Best build so far in my view. Hats off.

Froyo 2.2 fail second try...

Tried it, load and works like a charm, but at reboot (power off=> power on=>Winmo=> CLRCAD.exe=> haret.exe=> froyo build keep stalling at the boot screen for me saying failed to find rootfs on sd card.. and say cant access tty..

Config:

HD2, Winmo 1.66 fre, cht 1.8.5, radio 2.12.50.02_2.

From Winmo if i erase all froyo files and copy them again, then it works for the first boot and then at next boot, fail complaining it cannot find rootfs.img.

Does somebody knows what i can do?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
well i have to say that i'm very excited about this, at last i can have android on my hd2, it's incredible, thank you guys!

now, cotulla's build wont boot, the screen goes green and stays there. but now i'm runing desire v3 and it's a very nice build, i mean i can boot and i can use almost everything i've tried, just one thing, it crashes a lot. i use the phone like 5 minutes and it crashed, reset and run it again and the same problem.

hope v3.xx solve this problem, or maybe it's something about the radio? im using 2.12.50.02_2

again, thank you guys!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
Not had this issue myself, restarted about three times now and booted perfectly each time. I suggest you delete all files and try again from the start.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
going to try this one, desire v3 it's fine but it crashes so let's give it a try.

just one thing, in desire v3 build, backlight problem it's not present, just turned of screen, and turned it on again and there it is, android lock screen.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vatastala:
This is the only build that not works for me, It remains on boot Android animation and repeat the animation every 30 secs. Someone knows why??? After 4 times repeting green screen :-(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] markfostersbeer:
save settings?

does anyone know which file is where the settings are saved? ie programs installed and registry info so i can keep that file when upgrading to later "Desire builds"

And any idea which Radio version the guys are using when programming and testing?

The sleep problem is annoying too but hey keep it up you are moving fast guys
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
what radio are you using? for what i'm reading since now, the green screen mostly appears when it's readio problem. but i'ts just a conclusion, i don't really know.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vatastala:
radio 2.10, all other builds works
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
seriously, this build works fine, i can turn off screen too, so i can't find any horrible problems. i just got a problem, backlight it's too low and i don't know why, because in winmo it's everything off.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
I also notice in the froyo build my charge light stays on when I boot from windows with USB is plugged in. Not sure if this means it's charging - the battery still has the explanation mark over it.

If the apps would run full screen in this build and you could wake the device from sleep, it would be almost perfect.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] matobj:
Backup

How do I create a backup settings? To simply return all installed applications and settings when you put a newer version?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
The froyo build has a perfect working phone. Just made a phone call as a mess around and mic and earpiece is working fine! Had a full conversation with the wife. Maybe people already knew this but as far as I knew there was still no mic driver. Was this common knowledge?

Seems to be a few issues receiving calls though - the screen stays blank so there is no way of knowing who is calling.

It's getting there. The development speed is amazing.

:D

EDIT - it seems the screen staying blank was a one off, it now wakes up fine. Also, the screen on receiving calls now works too.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
with this build, i do CAN wake the device from sleep. and it's full screen for me, but now i've got the same problem than emottier. first boot works just fine, but second boot it says "no rootfs in sd card"
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] a13x4nd3r:
been looking around, and still not finding the answer, so i decided to post, sorry if my question has been answered before

i cannot set my apn, hence why my gprs cannot connect, when i go to setting, wireless& net, mobile net, apn, then nothing just blank screen (but not hang, and android tasksbar still visible and working, i can go back), so i cannot set my apn.. anyone else having this issue?

I shall try froyo for the first time on my TMOUS. HSPL3 is done already and currently running on energy cookie 23569 ROM. My radio is 2.10.50.26 instead of 2.10.50.08 as written above. Do I need to return to radio 2.10.50.08 version or should I just continue with clrcad and haretz? thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] young blade:
I can confirm that its charging (desire build v3.7) I was playong around for a few hours and the phone went off due to drained battery power.

after that I rebooted to winmo with power cord connected and launched harret..

Now I'm running android for 2 hours without any shutdown..:D

you have to connect the power cord before running harret.

You guys have me excited about the Froyo build! Was using Desire V3 now am going to try Froyo. For the Desire build, what apn settings do I need to enter and where? I entered epc.tmobile.com and got excited when it flashed 3g but it still wouldn't work. Also is that an issue with Froyo or will it just pick up now? Thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] emottier:
Did what you suggested, but fail again complaining it cant find rootfs.img.

I noticed just before it says this, it was doing a sort of chkdsk for Android ( i am noobs with Android) and reporting errors with SD card.

I noticed nothing wrong with Winmo and access or starting pgm from SD card is fine.

There is a LOST.DIR which is created -i guess- by Android, and from that point i dont know what to do!

Shame, was running just fine, i noticed that flash in Youtube or with Browser was working!

Any suggestion?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
friend, we've got the same problem. I tried to solve it by re-extracting all the files and run it again, and now the problem is gone, now froyo appears, it get full of colors and then stays there forever. anything??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elgrego4:
Is it not possible to get this to run from a folder on the sd card, as all the files it needs and the extra ones it creates makes a mess.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vatastala:
Ok, now It works!! I tryed to put files again and all works...

I think that desire v3 is very good because is more stable than froyo, all works and doesn't freeze, but with froyo I can do calls respect desire where I can't hear nothing! Another...with desire my phone is very "fresh", I can't sense it hot!!!

Boys...you are doing a FANTASTIC JOB, THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!! :)

p.s. after starting froyo the first time all goes well...but if I reset my phone, next start I have tty issue
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brunoavrocha:

p/s: spoon feeding is not the way for knowledge improving... :(

edit: be sure to read the Readme...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
The Froyo build runs from a folder in the root of the memory stick called 'Android'. This is another thing which makes it appealing, along with the fact the phone works, it's 2.2 and it's the most stable build so far.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vatastala:
I don't think It's the more stable...see my post some posts ago...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
ok that's why i had the proble of "no rootfs in sd card", i just extracted the files in root, now i'm trying with the files in Android folder, let's se what happens...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
That's almost certainly what has caused it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
I have yet to have it hang once and I have been running it for around an hour and a half now. Also, everything I have tried works.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] emottier:
I think i made a mistake, i copied all froyo files to sd root. I did not copy the "Android folder with all files" to sd root.

I read the readme but i apologise if i fail this.

Thank you for the tip. I'll try and let you know.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
indeed, that was the problem. We both need to read the readme file ;)

now i'm runing froyo and is doing very well!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kanesw:
I agree definitely the most stable so far. Hasnt frozen at all, and ive been running it for an hour or so. Everything running smoothly even phone calls. When the power management, camera and standby issues are fixed, i reckon this will be ready for everyday use.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
Have you noticed the phone call volume and quality is quite bad in comparison to WM? Not a big deal and I'm sure it will be fixed with improvements, it's amazing considering the amount of time the kernel has been working and available.

And I agree, get the battery and power issues fixed and it will be usable. I tried a few games and apps and they run almost perfectly.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GStar01:
Very nice Project :) How long is the accu keeping?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dthporro:
can you turn off your phone and boot froyo again? i can't, first time everything perfect, but in a distraction, the screen turned off, and i had to reset, then green screen on every boot... sad
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jaidedfocus:
Maybe someone can help me out with this. I have Froyo running now and its running pretty well. Got 3G and WiFi running and haven't had any lag issues...except when I make calls. I'm reading that people are able to make calls but when I do it sounds like a little robot person on the other end lol. Very strange. Any ideas?

Also I was able to install the files on my SD using the folder and also without the folder that the files were contained in. Doesn't seem to cause much of a difference that I've noticed.

Thanks!

Yah - i did all of that its on youtube i saw it dude :/

went step by step

the thing is there is a line in linux boot that it says " new usb device found " or some thing like that and it freeze might be my SD card cuz its 16 GB

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mmbika:
Hi Troji, me too. Never get Ubuntu to boot. Please keep on posting if you find a work around. Do we need to wait for some 20-30 minutes till all the ubuntu gets expanded and loaded into 2GB space on SD Card? I am making a wind guess, as no one has confirmed or told yet, but to unzip/extract up to 2GB and that on device itself (i.e. SD card) may be a time consuming task? it took me 20 minutes to transfer (extract) native ubuntu biuld to SD Card (16GB, Class 2, came with HD2) so while loading ubuntu it may call for further extract and may be taking more than half an hour! Not sure.

EDIT: I FIGURED IT OUT! Need to put 'ubuntu' folder into root of SD Card and not the files in 'ubuntu' in the root of SD Card!. it booted to ubuntu in even less time than it does for Android. Very cool! Now I need to get mouse working, so sort out USB hub issue. I connected a 4-port USB Hub (thin out side micro-USB hub which is very tiny and shivels 360 degree) to HD2 power charger adaper, connected USB mouse to one USB port of the hub and it got LED on (USB Mouse) than put HD2 into another USB port and charging LED (amber) came on than I booted Haret hoping that mouse will work, but it does not so far.

No such issue here. Have sent and received about 10 calls now with no issues. Call sound quality isn't as good as WM but more than usable providing there isn't too much background noise.

Reminds me a bit of an iPhone at the moment, the call quality and volume on those has always been pretty bad. Except they have stayed bad, I fully expect this to be improved.

The dual boot will boot windows, start itself and the start Haret before windows can Start sense (which is now important)

few pluses and minuses of the most used builds

Froyo:

+ Working phone

- Not fully working 3G (Android market doesn't work via 3G, and browser cannot find any site)

Desire

+ Fully working 3g (Market, browser Everything)

+ HTC Sense

- Sound in phone not working

Therefore i hope they will put their heads together and create one build with sense and one without it, but with same kernel, with the advantages of both :)

I've tested serveral Andorid Versions (Cotullas / Desire) and they are getting better and better! Great progress!!

But since i'm playing around with this... i recognized that in android the well known Touchscreen Bug is back. :(

It's very exhausting to writ with the software keyboard. Like on WM the first days without the sensitivity-patch.

Is in possible to reduce the sensitivit of the Touchscreen (like in WM) in Android? That would be great!
