Back up what you want to keep for the WinMo system, and re-format SD card and copy back your wanted files.

Safest bet!!

Then your are safe in the knowledge, all should be clean!!

Is there a faster way to try a new build with the same apps than backing up using titanium as described in the guide?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
That is always an option. This was also recommended before loading your first android.

I backed up all WM stuff first. I also created a text file that I keep on the root of my SD card called "original files" In that file, I listed all folders and the couple of files that were on the root of my SD card before android was copied over.So if and when I want to try another build I can delete anything that android made. As long as the files and folders on my SD card were listed in my text file, I knew I had cleared everything.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
All I can think is to backup your apps with appmanager or linda file manager and then reinstall them all in the new build via the program you used to backup. Be careful with Titanium backup. If you restore all apps and data, you may crash android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 14theroad:
I think so, but not tried it yet, waiting for the next release from mattc.

Get a new SD card, install the new ROM, go to Market, and see if when you go to downloads, it remembers what you have already downloaded, recognises that is not installed, and allows you to re-install??

I would like to think this works, as you have a personal account, possibly with purchased downloads that you want to re-install.

If all else fails, you can go back to the original card;)

Why not just use droidexplorer and pull the apk installs and put them in the adroid/AndroidApps folder. Dont they get installed when loading android for the first time?

Edit, just checked and its the data/app folder

Opps, correction. All the apps i removed are gone from that folder. Thats good to know
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
Unfortunately, with all the builds I have tried, the market never remembers what I have downloaded. :(

One of the apps I mentioned is supposed to do this for you (i.e. somehow tell the market that the apps is on the phone. You have to install from said program, but afterward the market will notify you of updates.

If i make a full copy of my sd card, will i just be able to copy it back to my sd card and it will still work? I assume it would as everything is stored on the sd card, but im not 100%
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
Yes, that is kind of the point of doing a backup, is it not?

This is assuming you do not Hard Reset your phone. :)

NEW KOREAN RADIO UP TO 10x the speed on 3G network!?

Recently there is a talk about on front page of xda-developers regarding a newly release Korean radio baseband firmware (version 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04) that is capable to enhance 3G network/Data speed up to 10x!

So my question for developers

1. Will that work for Android HD2 builds? Because according to the article many ppl with original android rom on various devices were able to flash to the new Korean radio. Just not sure if it will also work for hd2.

Thanks!!

touch screen issues and ive tried everything

i have a question about a touch screen issue and its not about the lag, everyone is experiencing that

after the updated zimage for 8/3/10 when the touch screen ratio was increased, i have been having issues with the text input, when i hit one letter it will either simultaneously hit the letter next to it or randomly some other letter off the keyboard, everything else runs fine, texting is just a pain because of this. its very annoying and i'v tried switching roms, i went from stock to miri V17 to NRGZ rom and back to miri, i changed the radio rom 3 differnt times, tried changing memory cards and formatting them, tried both froyostone's and tried shubcraft

i updated to the newest zimage and corresponding .gtz file through terminal window in android

any one got any ideas on what might be wrong? oh and ive tried using the 16g class 2 mem card that came with it and a 8g class 6......

the text input was fine before the update for 8/3/10

ideas? help?

Issue with any builds in /sdcard/android

Morning all,

i am stumped here, have looked all throughout this post.

i have been using Darkstones v5 Desire build pretty much since it came out, and it has worked fine no SOD, or Robot Calls.

but yesterday i thought i would update to one of the more recent builds, and went with the Senseless FroyoStone build it booted fine, connected to wifi, and apn fine,

however when the device locks it seems impossible to get back to the Slide to unlock screen, the screen turns on (i see the LED at the bottom light up) yet i get no display, the only way to resolve this is keep pressing the END button, and after about 10 presses it wakes up, that is if i dont press to much too quickly in which case it comes back and turns off again.

i thought it may just be an issue with this build on my HANDSET, so i tried ShubCrafts 1.3 Rom, and the same issue presents itself,

any ideas?

Is there any way to change the mac address? Or let the router know they are two seperate devices?

With shubcraft or some other builds delete old bcm4329.ko file in /sdcard/Android/root/system/lib/modules or it will come back on next reboot

Wifi was working perfectly for a couple of days, but now I cannot seem to connect (Wireless Network displayed and Connected in Settings Wireless Networks).

I also can't seem to connect using 3G Connection!

Based on the above, do I need to follow the instructions by memin 1857, even though my Wireless reports Connected!

Testing new kernel. Toggling WiFi HotSpot ON - crashes Android.

I have mattc Le0 1.5 + the latest Kernel and latest modules in place from Netripper's auto-build site. Regular WiFi works, though seems to be very slow, and the INFO tools confirm it - *#*#4636#*#* shows 24Mbps instead of 54Mbps.

LED works just fine now. I tried N1 Torch app, before the update it would work only in high brightness mode, now it works in both normal and high...

Now, a new Kernel should also support WiFi Hotspot and I tried to turn it ON,

but when I am turning it on, the phone freezes for a few seconds and then OS crashes and reloads. Not sure if it would be correct to say that it reboots, because it does not fully reboot it reboots the GUI part only, i.e. the phone is thrown back to the booting stage where we see "android" logo with running light over it... I guess it could be just Sense crashing and reloading, or maybe there are some other processes in the background too...

Thanks,

Which version

Hi All,

I have a headache because many of threads talking about new Android's rooms

Can you Please just tell what's the best version of Android Froyo 2.2 for HD2

the more stable, Faster and almost everything work on it ??!

Please
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcordes:
In my opinion such voltage and overclock hacks should not go into the GIT kernel. Those limits are there for the reason. I don't want my hardware to wear off faster so I will not play with these things on my leo.

Regarding the missing governors: Thanks for the pointer. I just added them in the default configuration. zImage-leo-latest will have all governors available from now.

I really have no clue for what reason they were disable. Most likely by mistake ..

I am using the rootstock script included in recent ubuntu versions to create the hd2 ubuntu rootfilesystems. https://launchpad.net/project-rootstock

I never looked into compiling debian/ubuntu from scratch. You might install ubuntu-minimal (that's some selection of packages that will give you a rootfs with ~80MB gzipped. You can create that using rootstock. From there you can use apt source code facilities to obtain the sources and compile the rest manually.

IMHO a much nicer option would be to use gentoo. That way you can get the most of the HD2. If you do it right it will be much faster than ubuntu because you can compile everything with the cortex-a8 options... I might look into that as well. http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Leo/Builds#Gentoo

Format the SD card.

If you copy the entire android / ubuntu / whatever directory (the one which has .ext2 file) from your storage card to your computer you have a full backup. just try it out.

please follow the FAQ AND INSTRUCTIONS section to install a recent kernel and modules.

I have seen others reporting they get the full N speed with the recent git kernels. Ever since nothing about wifi changed (check git changelog) In such cases you should further look for the problem at your end.

Are you sure the *#*#4636#*#* shows your maximum rate? Maybe it shows your current rate. WiFi will regulate the speed down if your signal is weak ;)

I have the extended hd2 battery and when using that android on the hd2 shuts down as soon as it goes past the boot logo. This happens EVERYTIME on every Android build I've tried with different roms. I know for a fact the extended batter is the cause of the problem because as soon as I go back to using the normal battery that comes with the hd2, android runs as it should.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
1. On your computer, open Notepad or any other text editor

2. Save the blank file as “.nomedia”

Make sure that the Save as type is set as “All Files” instead of “Text documents”

3. Copy that file to the folder on your SD card containing audio files you don’t want to show up.

(Example: If you want to block CoPilot sound files from coming up, place the .nomedia file in the sdcard/copilot folder)

4. Reboot your phone and the files should no longer be viewable

This same trick works for folders containing images or videos that you don’t want to appear in the Gallery app. The files will still be accessible from your original app or an explorer like Astro or Linda, but you’ll finally be able to stop hearing “Turn left” announcements after a great song.

This info came from: http://androinica.com/2009/08/28/ho...iles-from-appearing-in-android-media-players/

I knew about the nomedia for pictures, but I did not know if it would work for audio files. seems like it does.
