Although this ROM is sweet I am growing tired of reflashing, checking, changing, modifying, etc. I think I might just go by the Samsung Vibrant this weekend. This way I will have a true android and not have to worry about anything anymore.

Thanks for all the hard work to everyone who has worked on this stuff, but I am really undecided right now.

Try downloading 1.4d running on its own from root. Just rename the old folder to something else and test 1.4d without patch maybe its the patch that your phone doesn't like

Also make sure you restart a couple of times after first boot

Does anyone know of a way to emulate the buttons on the actual touch screen? I found an app called Soft Home in the market that emulates the home key but I couldn't find any that emulate the back or menu buttons. Does it exist? I've done a lot of searching for like 2 hours but without much to show for it.

Issues with PPP

Hello,

after upgrading to 1.4d I started having issues with dropped internet / phone calls. After a freeze the only way to get network coverage back was to reboot android. I have experience the same issue with Mattc's Leo + Froyo Sense build and was able to resolve it by applying the RMNET downgrade. Would it be possible to get a similar patch for shubCRAFT. For some reason PPP doesn't seem to work in my area.

Thanks

The HD2 easily competes with the vibrant imo.

At least for me, the HD2s community alone is a huge plus. This phone can run so many OSes and is so flexible. It won't be long before we have a finished and polished nand version of android for this phone. Sure the vibrant has a slightly faster processor and better GPU, but it has less ram, a faulty gps unit and much worse build quality. The HD2 feels so well built and professional compared to any of the galaxy S phones which are very plasticy.

Anyway, that's just my .02 USD. I don't think its worth buying a vibrant which imo isn't any better than the HD2 and the HD2 will be able to do anything which the vibrant can do and more very soon.

Do I have to activate this separately?

Good points. Don;t get me wrong. I love the HD2 phone hardware. I just want a working Android phone. It if could be flashed I would be ecstatic!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] poweroutlet:
I've run reasonably stable at 1190, but I've actually capped mine at 998. Fast enough for everyday use for me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] poweroutlet:
Understood, I think we all want fully functional android builds. Looking at the amount of progress made, it won't be long now before we get finished builds.

If you were on the vibrant you would be waiting to get updated to froyo anyway along with the GPS fix, and given samsungs record of updating phones, who knows how long that will all take?

It might make more sense if the vibrant blew the hd2 out of the water in terms of hardware, maybe if it had a 2Ghz dual core CPU, 1gb ram or something ridiculous like that but it doesn't.

Root access?

Hi I wanted to try a senseless version of Android on the HD2, after using mattc's version for a while. However, when I try to run SetCPU, it says that I have no root access. Is there a file like rootfs.img I need to copy in the Android folder?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] poweroutlet:
Go to your main apps and look for superuser permissions, give access to setcpu and it will all work.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rmarrmar:
Go to Superuser Permission Application, and there you will see SetCPU with a RED SIGN. Click on it till you see GREEN SIGN. Then go again to SetCPU and you will see that you can do everything. This ROM is a ROOTED ROM

I hope that it help you to get rid out.

BUG???

I'm testing this ROM's, and I'm using the version c and d (1.4). And in both of them, when you SCREEN OFF, and then you want to switch on gain (and you didn't give time from the moment you switch off the screen), many times you see light in the buttons,but the screen don't come up. If you try again and again,and a couple times more, the screen appear.

I discover that if you click TWICE on the CALL button, the screen appear always.

It happens with you guys? Maybe it's a minor bug, but not nice.

wanna blow your mind?

that density value in buildprop... change it to 180, reboot and tell me what you think ;) prepare yourselves..

(it basically increases your resolution makes your screen real estate larger.) note your original value incase you want to go back.

dont ask how to do it... there is a thread specifically for this just use the search for "lcd density"

also make sure you uncheck the compatibility mode in the "spare parts" app so that you dont get the wierd image scaling thing going on :)

I LOVE IT! android rules.

*scaling is off with paper toss (probably some other apps too so far only paper toss tho..) not enough to change back thats for sure

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] copenhagen:
1. verify that your radio is new enough. check the "hd2 radio thread" most people around here use the 2.10 or 2.12 radio.

2. format your sdcard, it honestly doesnt matter where, ur computer, ur hd2, whereever, format it.

3. re download the install files from vbn

4. unzip and copy to your device. when you unzip just drag the android folder to your desktop. when you copy to your device drag the android folder to /sdcard/

when its done will look like this

/sdcard/Android/ some files will be in here.

from inside winmo run clrcad then haret

and you should be fine.

There is a hidden wallpaper in shubcraft 1.4d.

When I select a live wallpaper and then reselect ANY static wallpaper, a different wallpaper comes up. It is the photo of a street. But after reboot its gone. I redo the live-static wallpaper and it comes again. It is normally not available under wallpapers.

I found out that it is actually inside framework-res.apk file. I rename the apk file to zip file and extract it. It is inside the res\drawable-hdpi folder and named default_wallpaper.jpg. But it does not show up in wallpaper change screen. Note: Astro File Manager can directly extract apk files by tapping and holding without first renaming to zip. The framework-res.apk file is seen as "Android System" with Droid Explorer.

EDIT: According to scooter247, this behaviour happens when lcd density is set to less than 240 and spare parts -> compatibility mode is ticked. Unfortunately unticking compatibility mode breaks my java/j2me applications although it makes apps full screen again with <240 lcd density.

same problem here. i think its more of a widespread problem though, not just on the hd2 android builds. i remember once in a while i'd have the same problem on my rooted nexus one. killing all tasks or clearing cache usually fixed my problem temporarily.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] scooter247:
ok the problem is the the lcd scale was changed in this update which causes problems when changing the backgound. to fix this go to spare parts app in your app menu and look for "compatibility mode" make sure it is unchecked. the lcd scale was changed from the standard 240 to 220 this changes the icon size to give android a higher resolution apperance. i have mine at 180. to change this use a file managing app and navigate to where you can access sdcard or system. go in to system and open the build.prop file. i use astro long press on file and select Open as, then seclect text, then File Editor. scoll down untile you see #ADDITIONL_BUILD_PROPERTIES

right below that you will see the line labled ro.sf.lcd_density=220

like i said before you can change this back to 240 or go lower. Just keep in minde what ever changes you make you will have to do it to the file located in sdcard\Android\root\system\Build. this is and backup file that overwrite the file evey reboot, which you will have to do to acctivate the changes made. also by changing the lcd lower then 240 will cause some app to run with a smaller screen (black bars around or under the app) this is what the setting in spare parts trys to fix but also breaks the ability to change the background on the fly. I hope this helps
