In the name of Crom! Why do people on this forum keep asking for solutions as to why their apps don't work or battery don't charge or that their phone is playing up etc etc!!!! These are test builds. Not everything works yet!!! And not everyone has the same Rom / radio or firmware pre installed, which means that what function works for one person may not for another - YET!!! And the fact that, say the wifi works for one person, maybe it will not for the other person, due to the above mentioned scenarios and / or you have not downloaded the latest build!!!

The other pain in the butt issue with this forum is WHY inform the planet "you are just downloading"???? Just download the damn thing and post findings AND HOLD OFF ASKING FOR FIX For any issues you may encounter until a final working version is released.

this HAS to be the fastest port thus far EVER......from "It can boot but thats it" to Compass, Audio in call AND speaker, bluetooth, wi-fi, data, camera, video camera, touch screen, battery monitoring, g-sensor, light sensors....pretty much EVERYTHING except GPS(agps works already) and PM works..............all of that in 23 days. I kept saying that once the kernel was fixed, it'd be no time before Android was at a state of being useable for every day useage. Once PM gets fixed...I'd venture to say it'd be a 100% fully functional device for everyday use. I say it won't even be two wks and we'll have by FAR the best WM-->Android port ever

Desire ROM v4 been working just fine for hours now and i'm loving it besides a couple of down things:

- camera works but no flash whatsoever

- camera resolution limited to 3 MP instead of the 5 MP

- Robotic voice when initiating calls ( i am flashing custom ROM today ...)

- Blue tooth pairing but sound is not so great ...

I have three thoughts.

1- I want to donate but I do not know who is doing what and where their link is. Can someone help an old senile man out? (I realize the 3 paypal donation links on the front page, but are those the only guys working on this? Theres a lot of names going around, just kinda lost. I want their hard work to be rewarded)

2- I say we start deleting posts from those users who refuse to use the search button. I've personally answered the robotic call 'bug' and the charging 'bug' at least 5 times in the past 24 hours.

3- Thanks again. the test builds are the only reason i bought the hd2. Thank you for breathing life into an otherwise lost device.

Benchmarks:

So I have now tried the froyo (dan V1) with Cotulla latest zImage:

-Quadrant (standard free from app store) now scores ~ double (total score 1068) the score under desire 4.7 thanks to optimizations in froyo. Real world use I didn't notice much difference. The Nexus under froyo gets just over 1250.

-for some reason the neocore didn't work for me so I will try re-install of that app. Asphalt 5 demo didn't work either.

-I have also noted that the neural animated wallpaper noticeably increases lag in 2d scrolling/animated transitions, etc. I use a static background and I am very happy with the UI performance.

AWESOME work guys. I definitely prefer the froyo with the improvements in the UI, etc.

Thanks for all the patience with NOOBs like me.

With Desire build 4 I'm loosing network all of the time, can't make decent phone call. I've changed the rom and the radio, but it's just the same. Calls are working great in Danijel's Froyo build, which have problems with bluetooth and the size of some applications btw. Froyo seems much stable, and doesn't heat the battery. I keep it overnight an lose only some 5-10% of the battery.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ashrak_22:
Did the same and noticed that the Desire v4 build doesn't score much worse than real Desire. Seems Sense is big brake of the system, but as you said it isn't noticeable in the normal use :)

What are the symptoms? Does your radio have a 50 or a 51 in it?

Are you running Froyo from the Android folder or from the root? (has to be in the android folder).

Have you switched off the auto backlight in WinMo? Used the latest Cotulla zimage (19 July)?

Have you read any of the previous posts in this thread?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] myself11:
Regarding calls sound quality, it seems that WinMo ROM has some influence. Those who have a (almost) bugless experience in Android should share their Radio and ROM version, so those who aren't so lucky and experience some bugs could test it.

Is there a way I can add Arabic support to this port ?

I'm currently using Desire V4 and it's so perfect I'm thinking of using it full time, but to do that I need Arabic support.

I have found a few Arabic ROMS available in the HTC Desire section but these of course won't work on or ported ROM, so is there a way to import these files into the ROM to make it support Arabic ?

Scroling Problem

When i run dan1j3l V1 with the last zimage for the first time and i instaled the launcher pro everything is ok very very nice scroling with 3d menu but when i restart the froyo from the beginnning the froyo scolling and the launcher pro is not so good like the first time.I deleted the cache folder from the root of the sd card but sometimes work others dont solve the problem....

someone who has the same problem with me?and know the answer???

sry for my bad english
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dangerously:
As I posted before, it is not ROM or radio related!

Step 1: Use a compatible radio that has been documented to work here on this very thread.

Step 2: Disable HTC Sense (I reboot after this). Once back in WinMo, run task manager and remove all other startup files/programs that are not needed.

Step 3: Boot HaRET

Getting 300MB or more free memory is the key!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dangerously:
Check your APN settings. If the settings are blank, you will have no 3G. Just find your settings on Google and fill them in.

*Please don't ask me how to do this as I found all the info through Google on the first try for my own settings.*

Give em some space

I have been reading this thread for a few days and as I see it, the more pointless questions we ask; expecting the developers the answer the more you are stopping their very much needed work in developing what we all seem to want which is a stable product on our phones.

Why not start a new thread for all us testers and leave the real work to the real Boffins; so they can get on doing what they do best, we can test and talk and ask each other and if they want they can cherry pick the issues we post about and get working on what they see.

Let’s give the developers a break shall we :rolleyes:

how can bee a root user to overwrite the fonts directory in system folder?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] myself11:
I'm not saying I'm right and you're wrong, but I believe there's evidence that it might be related, in some degree.

For example, the developer of HTC Sense (HTC Desire base rom) v4, says:

"If you are having issue with audio, whether if it is high pitched or you hear robot noises during calls, then I recommend you switch over to a new Windows Mobile rom. I use this rom: Miri's 6.5 V17".

gettin cerfiticafe errors..

Hello Guys

after replacing zimages and android files, at some point I started to get this message when trying to read certain files on the SD Cards and when trying to run almost any application that I installed (non coming with T-mobile's Rom)

the file "X" cannot be opened. either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found.. bla bla bla

I know this is not part of this thread but I think maybe this have happened to some of you and probably fixed it. I already had this failure and the only way I fixed it was restoring or hard resetting the device, but I want to check with you guys if there is another way out of this. I've searched about this and never got to a real solution that isn't a hard reset

thank you

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Birger:
I agree, so the thing we can do (as I suppose there are only a few supergenious guys that can do this developing thing), is to answer all these questions for them.

If you read everything and test them, you are indeed capable of answering a lot of those questions. And that's now what I intend to do, to keep the load of the developers so they can concentrate on those final important steps like GPS to work ...

Just wondering, had an Idea, Why don't they have two threads for this? This one saying in large red letters or something "DEVELOPMENT ONLY" added onto the title, and a second thread that was like "Linux and Android on the HD2 - TROUBLESHOOTING".

Maybe this way we could keep this thread clean for all of us who test and post results, not just so many questions about this and that and whatever else...

The ones that are on the IRC developer chat have found that the Miri ROM Darkstone is using "just works". That ROM leaves you with close to 300MB free memory after install which means that my steps are not needed...

FM Radio with Froyo?

Thank you for having looked for an explanation.

If i understood well FM Radio is reserved for the Desire version 2.1 Android.

For the Froyo Android 2.2, the FM Radio Desire app will not work.

Latest zImage said FM Radio is supported. So if we could have the Desire FM Radio app., should be something like FM Radio.apk, why cant we try it with Froyo?

Bump! I also have noticed that. I mean, I'm just grateful we have android working so swimmingly on our devices but the stifled volume does make it a tad difficult to hear during phone conversations. I've tried all sorts of things in wm to increase the volume but to no avail. While I am no developer, I believe the reason may lie with "clrcad.exe" but alas, I lack the knowledge necessary to confirm these claims.
