Thanks, it is for the TMOUS, and I do have everything backedup. I didn't do anything to the new card, just put it in the phone and copied the data over from the PC. The OS boots fine and everything runs fine. I was really woundering if I need to repartition if I wnated to reflash the ROM or flash an update?

(Marc's kernel version 1.5 vs. (Marc's kernel version 1.6)

(Marc's kernel version 1.5) really makes this rom so much more of a keeper.... 1.6 had serious drain issues even in economy mode.... just my little two cents towards a beautiful rom

Hi, can you share the changes you have done? Thank you.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
If you are using the Tmobile HD2, I think the SDcard is not partitioned.

The Music Player widget is different than the HTC WM 6.5.3

Settings WiFi tether

device profile : auto

- setup method : Wext(adhoc)

- enable wifi encryption: check

- encryption method : wpa_supplicant

- Routing fix :check

There is a later beta of "WiFi Tether", wifi_tether_v3_1-beta11.apk that worked ok for me too. I needed to use a password for the installed version but not with the later beta one.

*device profile: Google nexus one

Attached please find both scripts, the original 74tweaks with changed swappiness, and the 85MBZram (which initially was called 131MBZRam in Marc1706´s package).

Copy these two files in /system/etc/init.d/ and with the next reboot it will work.

Don´t forget to add the files, which are in Marc1706´s package as well, in the folder /system/bin/. (bash, compcache, handle_compcache and zram_stats)

Don´t forget to remove the ending ".txt", i had to add it, because files without a proper ending aren´t allowed to be uploaded.

No! It will erase! You have to backup it first, then partition and then restore your data. Space will be 1GB less.

#4 isn't right after my opinion. I copied the ROM on my SD Card, made the partition and the ROM was away.

Good. I've used your files and now zram works. Got 30-35 MB extra free ram.

Now will monitor battery drain.

I had that on anther sense ROM, but it was with the Radio.... same issue. but could'nt find a fix...

No problem @ me with both ROMs. Think, I am a lucky fellow :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] boss19:
Thanks for the zram find and tutorial. However, I tried to install using your method of manually copying and pasting (ie. from sdcard to nand) using ES Explorer but I had some problems when I rebooted... namely, many programs did not recognize the phone had being rooted (Titanium backup, terminal emulator), and the wifi couldn't connect.

I resolved the issue by reinstalling Energy's Jan 23 ROM via CWM...reboot.. then I applied marc's zram activation zip via CWM again. I checked the zram_stats using terminal and it was enabled in addition to having all the other software/hardware components working correctly again.

Tmo HD2, 2.12 radio.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Cheech1976:
Manually copying the files in that folder needs permissions to be fixed, sorry, i should have mentioned that.

Best way would be to copy those files into the zip before flashing it.

What does zram_stats actually show? Are there any changes to the figures? If you didn´t edit the 74tweaks script zram will be there, but won´t be used at all, so no gain from the mere activation.

This is my experimental day :-)

I cloned my absolutely perfect running system on my second HD2.

It was running perfect since two days with 23/1 build.

Then I started magldr and resettet with wipe data/factory reset.

Restart freezes with only default background screen (blue / whatever) ;)

Waiting for an hour, nothing happens. so reset with taking out accu.

Restore to running system.Again works perfect. Going into settings, setting there factory default. .. restarting .. nothing happened, alle apps and data still there, running system.

Setup of an new 23/1 system .. freezing at default screen.

Setting up 04/1 system .. coming up, running perfect.

Whats happening here?

BTW: 5/200/5

perplexed .. nice to have a second HD2 for experiments! ;)

I only want to set up a clean 23/1 without updating from 04/1.

Edited because new idea:

Dalvik cache cleaned

Battery cache cleaned

Fix permissions done

wipe cache partition done

result: freezing with dafault background. :)

Happy searching ;)

Editing again:

So I habe tried:

I set up a clean 04/01 working perfect. After that I updatede an 24/1

That works

24/1 started perfect.

But 24/1 as downloaded doesnt't work as all.

So .. I have a clean 24/1 installation ;)

Titanium backup did the rest. ;)

But ..

why doesnt 24/01 start, but 24/01 as upgrade from 04/01 works???????

confused ............ :-)

Nice to have a second HTC HD2. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] boss19:
Thanks for the follow-up... I didn't know it was mandatory to update as .zip... still new to Android and customizing the HD2.

Yes, I edited the 74Tweaks file in ES Explorer prior to applying the zip file.

I've attached a pic of what "zram_stats" and "free" are showing me in Terminal currently. I know that before I had done the update, there was no number data for the zram stats and swap showed up as 0, 0, 0 for total, used, and free... so this should be validation that it's working.

I'm mot sure how to interpret this data but I know "search" has become my omnipotent source. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 111Kestrel:
Okay guys I'm a bit confused, or maybe a bit stupid, or both. I mounted the phone to my PC as a mass storage device, and then backed up everything on the SD card to the PC just in case. I then powered down the phone and restarted holding down the red phone key. The menu appeared and selected the USB connection option. I then launched the HD 2 toolkit to do a repartition, thinking that this is going to establish a partition on the SD card. I selected 445 and proceeded to repartition. I was of course warned that all the data would be lost, and clicked ok to proceed. At this point, I figured all the data on the SD card would be wiped, but to my surprise it was not, everything was still there.

A restart of the phone again produced all of the choices from the boot menu, and I selected the recovery option leading to the appearance of another menu which allowed me to reflash the ROM from the SD card. Sure enough everything was on the SD card , and the reflash went forward without a hitch.The phone rebooted perfectly minus all the bells and whistles I had painstakingly applied through the customization process. However, I ran the batch restore from the Titanium back up app, and everything was back as it was before. The only thing I had to restore manually was the HTC skin and wallpaper.

All I can figure is that repartitioning process selected from running the HD 2 toolkit does not repartition the SD card, but rather some area resident to the phone. Anyway, without any apparent special partitioning of the SD card, the ROM can be reflashed without a hitch, and everything reboots just fine.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Cheech1976:
As far as I know (and if someone knows better, feel free and step in :D ), but inside all these zip files there are scripts included, telling the system which file to go where. And on top of that, there are command lines to set the permissions.

If you copy files manually in system folders, you have to set the permissions. Fat32 as used on sd cards doesn´t have the possibility to set certain permissions, after copying the files these are almost always wrong.

As far as your Zram stats go, they look good :)

---------- Post added at 11:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 PM ----------

I trimmed your text a bit, I hope you don´t mind, no use in bloating up the pages ;)

What you did with the HD2 Toolkit was partition your NAND memory,that memory as you have correctly addressed as the resident memory inside the phone.

Partitioning the sd card would have been selecting AD Recovery from the MAGLDR menu and then do that within CWM.

Nice move backing everything up before taking these steps ;)

But tell me one thing, you have a TMOUS, for which no extra ext partitions are mandatory, so you would do just fine with your sd card unpartitioned and whole with fat32?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ForgetfulGuru:
Music Skipping

yes I had noticed that as well, seemed strange when it first happened. There was me doing a little salt n' peper dance walking to work trying to make it skip again. it didn't. I thought maybe it was related to g-sensors or screen rotation, did seem to do it more if I hade the phone upside down in a pocket. I did start to look through all apps that might make use of screen rotation, but never actually got finished as I thought it was just me.

Might do that tomorrow as I have plenty of time sitting doing not a lot at work on a Sunday.

I'll post back.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] 111Kestrel:
Thanks for the conformation. It all makes much more sense now. And to answer your question, yes I do have a TMOUS with a single fat32 partition. It's good to know I don't have to fool with the SD card!

Thanks for the instructions Cheech1976. Would be nice if someone could post a detailed and compendious guide somewhere in this forum outlining:

- Setting initial partition size (optimal size of Tmo vs EU, FULL vs DIET, 45 vs 10 vs 5 MB cache sizes)

- How to update ROM

- How to update kernel

- How to enable and verify zram

... just as an example, I've learned that I need to flash the new kernels and updates via CWM but didn't know i should wipe dalvik and cache beforehand.

As you can tell, I'm new to Android flashing so I've been researching all these topics and have to say it's been pretty time consuming especially when trying to decipher vague instructions (at least to this noob) and deciding whether it applies for EU or Tmousa... I'm always in fear that I may brick my phone because I didn't follow the proper algorithm. So I'm sure as more HD2 users start crossing over android, they'll probably have similar issues and questions... then again, give a man a fish vs. teach a man how to fish ;)

ps. I'd offer to write such a post but I think I'm under qualified and wouldn't want to misinform anyone.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rabryant152:
It works even on the Jan 19th version as well...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 111Kestrel:
I have tested both the 0.1.8 kernel and the 0.1.7 in NRG's current build for power consumption over a relative short, 3 hours for each, time period. The 0.1.8 kernel used 1% of power per hour, while the 0.1.7 used .67% per hour.

Given the short time frame of the test, and the lack of replication the results are inconclusive, but it does look as if the 0.1.7 kernal may be significantly less power hungry then the 0.1.8 build.

Hi everyone,

I have been using the Energy ROMs since the Windows Mobile 6.5 version with excelent results. The Android version is not different. This is a very nice ROM, but is not perfect for me because a small issue.

I have been using Diceplayer to reproduce my videos, (including HD 800x480, bitrate of 2000kbits/sec), with the Hyperdroid Cyanogen, and my videos always played smooth with this configuration. But after I install the Energy ROM I cant do that anymore. I cant syncronize the video with the audio, video is not smooth and after few seconds freeze.

Anybody could help me solve this?

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Cheech1976:
After flashing a rom you have to go to the advanced menu and select "report error", with the "older" recovery version.

With the 4EXT Recoveries it is called "Copy recovery.log on sd-card". After flashing a build (or if you have to know, backup, wipe everything and restore and select the recovery.log thingy after that) you can save this text file on the sd card.

From there you can search the file if there are any bad blocks mentioned, which won´t be formatted or erased.

I personally don´t think that this build doesn´t boot due to bad blocks, i have read so many posts about it with people using way too large partitions, if there is a bad block it will be skipped and the data will be written on the subsequent block.

Since this build (EU version at least) works perfect with a 5/145/5 partitioning (I have it that way), a partitioning according to the recommendation on the first page (5/200/5) should leave more than enough space to skip any bad blocks that might linger in that area.

Hi F.A.S.T. Unit 52, sorry I hadn't gotten back to sooner Just wanted to again, Thank you for your help. I'm working on this HD2 for a friend, and when you got back to me about the Task 29 He had to leave unexpectedly to Mexico and he;s finally gotten back to me.

I followed your instructions to a t. I turned off WMDC when it popped opened. Then I restarted the HD2 put it in bootloader got the tricolor screen connected the USB cable and wait for the serial to change into USB at the bottom I started the Task 29 but I had the same result as with MAGLOADER it goes into the HTC Screen times out and never loads. I'm going to keep trying hopefully it works. and again I'm really appreciative of the time you have given me in this process.
