Trying something new.

IF THERE ARE ANY ANDROID BUILDS THAT ARE ANDROID 2.2 BASED, WITH SENSE, AND ALMOST OR ENTIRELY STABLE????

I WOULD LOVE SOME LINKS PLEASE!!

THANK U FOR YOUR TIME :)

Some Question

Hey guy,

first of all i want to thank you for this awsome pice of work.

second, i'v read the faq und searched through this thread, but can't find a fitting answer.

I use a htc hd2 (leo) with the darkstone froyo 2.2 ram and the latest kernel and modules.

So my questions are:

1. I set the option to keep the display on while the power supply is connected, but it doesn't. Is there anything to do about this?

2. Is there a way (maybe an app) to increase my phone signal while the power supply is connected? Like suppling the antenna with more power (does that even make sens?)

3. Should tethering work with win7 (it works while in windows mobile)? Do i need to turn off usb debugging or something?

4. is there any rss feed or mailing subscription, which informs me about the latest news of the linux kernel and/or the android hd2 portation?

I love to have android in my hd2

Please keep working on it =)

Regards,

Khaos

No Internet Connectivity

This build works fine, except that the internet dosnt work. I did try the APN fix, that didnt work and i am in USA and using a tmobile service. The wifi works fine and gave an idea of what the internet on this build is like, but i need a 3g connection. i am able to make calls and receive txt messages, just no internet. if you can please email me a fix for this at (00sillkhd2@gmai.com) thank you. looking forward to my first working gingerbread build sd, ive been waiting for one on.

I was wondering, once you have settled down over a stable build, is it possible to somehow "write" that build over your phone? In other words, make it so that my phone boots into my build - or replace WinMo with it. I'd love to be be able to reclaim that space.:)

Apologies if this has been answered before. I am asking because I could not find the answer. I'd be grateful if someone would point me in the right direction.

Thank you in advance!

MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.6 doesn't find my wifi connection!

I've tried a few Android builds, mostly SD-versions, and they all got the same problem, except SuperRAM FroYo v1.5 and shubCRAFT 2.0★CM6 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=870518 ,http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740963). Those two find my wifi connection right away, but all the rest don't, no matter how hard I try. The MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.6 does find my neighbour's connection but not mine :( It doesn't make any effect whether I put the connection visible or not.

My connection is secured with WPA-PSK (AES)

What can I do?

I've tried that several times and the magic won't happen, unfortunately :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] -Keese-:
Well, I tried once again to restart my router while my phone was scanning wifi.

It found the connection and it appeared that the security level is OPEN and it's not. It is WPA-PSK (AES) like I said before. So I made a connection and it showed ''NOT IN RANGE'' right after it. I tried the whole process for few more times and then it showed ''obtaining IP-Address'' but then wifi disconnected.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wudangnic:
As long as you can see other networks and connect to them is obvious a router configuration issue. I would suggest to reset and reconfigure the router. I also use a WiFi d-link router and each time I had connection issues were caused by it.

Why not an Android App to easy install dualboot

As Wubi is for MS WOS (Windows Operating System) an Android App to dual boot install Ubuntu with Android as easy as Wubi, perhaps "AnUBIs" would be a good name.

Thanks for all your work, but even this thread has amazing 975 pages dual boot Android/Ubuntu - or other distro - devices, would be a great app at Android Market or if it is banned at alternative Android Stores.

I think that in a near future, Android tablets with Ubuntu dual boot, and perhaps with a slide thin keyboard - similar to Apple desktop ones - will be killer devices.

You would be able to even monetize your work, When I'll have a tablet I will prefer to pay for this app a little price than do all the steps needed today.

I think this Android app can download files, execute all the steps even the first Ubuntu update/upgrade with not a lot of work making this app.

Obviously as today each device has it owns steps the most diffcult task is to recognize the device - and or select it - and do the steps for your device.

Ubuntu ARM will be installed more with this app, and perhaps the same Ubuntu would do it, even I posted this idea at Ubuntu Brainstorm and it has been not very wellcome

idle battery drain

In trying several Android SD builds (Cope's and Warrenb's CM7, Daniest's Desire Z) I am facing the same issue over and over. Initially the phone idles with the battery drain around 5ma (which is suitable for daily use), after a day or two, idle battery drain jumps to around 60ma (with wifi/bluetooth/gps/syncing/background data turned off), making the build fairly useless. Rebooting or turning Airplane mode on/off does not solve the issue.

Any ideas on what could be the problem or how to find out what applications are causing this change?

I searched several threads, but cannot find any helpful answers.

It basically means that Android cannot call a "halt" to the CPU, but the governor can set the CPU speed to save power, more specifically if its in standby the Qualcomm CPU will get down-clocked to ~230Mhz
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mightyiam:
Dear jonbasa,

Is halting the CPU a regular feature of android phones or these types of CPUs? They wake up when they're needed?

Blessings,

Shahar
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ionbasa:
Well halting basically means that the CPU can go into a "sleep mode" if the device is in standby. whether or not the Qualcomm CPU can support that function natively, I don't know.

If anyone is having battery issues you should change the kernel if possible.

hello, i did by the following guide in order to update the kernel to support usb audio (on usb host) in ubuntu - v0.3

Installing the latest Linux kernel image (zImage)

1) Download the latest Linux kernel image (right click, save file as)

1a)for Google Android

1b) for classical GNU/Linux based distros (Ubuntu, openemebdded, meego, maemo etc)

Be aware these build links are dynamic and will be updated once the Linux kernel source code is updated. See here for static links

2) Rename the file to zImage

3) Overwrite your old zImage file with the newly obtained zImage file

Installing the matching Linux kernel modules (.ko files)

1) Download the latest Linux kernel modules to match your kernel image

1a) for classical GNU/Linux based distros (Ubuntu...)

1b) for Google Android

2) Install the modules...

2a) in GNU/Linux

As root run

cd /

tar xvf /path/to/modules-htcleo-usbhost-latest.tgz

downloaded both zImage-htcleo-usbhost-latestt and modules-htcleo-usbhost-latest.tgz then renamed first one like the older one in the linux folder, then use the tar command in root console to copy files from the archive to /lib folder (or wherever they were put). After a restart i get some fatal errors during text load up of linux, something involving mod probe complaining about not finding something in /lib folder, modules.dep if i remember, then at GUI load i get another error "cannot update ICEautorithy file. When i click ok, i get the desktop loaded but still no sound plus now, no wifi or some other drivers.

I guess i did it wrong........ total linux noob :)

How can i get it right?

Download a stock Rom.

Extract the contents of the .exe file to a folder on your pc using winzip.

Rename RUU_signed.nbh to LEOIMG.nbh and copy it to the ROOT of your storage card (preferably 2GB or lower).

Restart the phone while holding down the 'volume down' button to enter bootloader mode.

If the phone recognises the nbh file on your phone then it will give you instructions on how to flash it and then everything will go back to a stock state for return purposes.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcordes:
You can now use any usb device supported by linux. And that's a lot of stuff. Think usb hid devices like keyboard, mouse, gamecontroller or mass storage devices like usb stick, multi card reader, external hard disk etc, multimedia devices like TV receiver, video grabber, camcorder or display devices like some usb to dvi to connect your hd2 to big screen etc etc....

This is a very powerful addition. Many of these things can also be used in android. At least the input devices afaik.

Also the possibility to use a keybaord directly instead of running scripts or using a shell via usbnet is indeed nice for debugging..

Since there is so much discussion about the touchscreen I want to make clear that this is not the main problem. We are still facing low level hardware problems that make the cpu crash. This is by far more important than an input device like ts. Also you could use mouse or keyboard now to navigate android once we found out what causes these very annoying and nerve eating crashes.

check this for a taste of the possibilities of usb host mode: http://sven.killig.de/android/N1/2.2/usb_host

I also produced such a powered hub setup but mine is far more compact and it's mobile:
