Hi, i've many questions ad i hope you can help me.

I'm using Android as first sys op from 2 or 3 weeks and i really love it.

I'm using "mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.8" with Kernel "2.6.32.15-g6ecee08-dirty" and radio "2.14.50.04" plus as WM rom a translated chukyrom.

- I'd like to change my rom to a clean WM rom only for Android, and i've seen here 2 different rom, one chukydroid and one VBNsomething, but i've seen that some people have random problems. I'd like to know if one build is better than another and if changing WM rom will affect my Adroid build. If it is so i think i'll stay with this chuky rom that i have at the moment.

- Rom performances: I've seen many scores with "Quadrant" that are really high.. i've tryed many times, but i'm always at 12xx. There is something i can do?

- Battery issue. I've installed and configured SetCPU but in standbye i'm alway 19/20mA. I can do something to lower this value? Btw, yesterday i've installed JuiceDefender and my battery seems to last really longer.

- Memory card. At this moment i have a 4gb class 2 MicroSD. I'd like to change to a 16gb one. Do you think it's better to stay with a class 2 or to go for a class 4 one?

- Last problem (but i can live with it) everytime i start a connection, i see random errors from the process "com.google.process.gapps". There is something i can do?

Thanks all for the answers :)

PS. How can i take screenshots of my Android?

I'm using stock ROM on my TMOUS HD2 and I get robot voice in Android. Current Radio is 2.10.50.26 and I guess I need to change it to something else (I have been suggested to install 2.12.50.02.2 radio)

So if I update just my radio (and NOT the stock rom) then would it wipe out all my data, settings and apps that I have installed already?

Thanks

I strongly suggest that you change to another ROM, not stock of course.

Running the latest FroyoStone with joshkoss' DroidOptimized WinMo and Jmz Dual-Boot.

My phone will randomly reboot in Android sometimes. Sometimes it could be within a 15 minute period of turning the phone on/rebooting and sometimes can be two days before it reboots.

Any input?

Also, not urgent but bothersome is that my weather is still in Celsius.

I have an HTC HD2 and have put a version of android on my phone, froyostone 2.2 with sense on the SD card, ready to boot,

but when I boot it just sits at 'jumping to kernel'

I currently have the HTC HD2 T8585

ROM : 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE

Radio : 2.06.51.07

Can anybody please me out with what I should do to get android booting properly? Do i need to flash a new radio?

Im located in Ontario, Canada. does location affect this at all??

please help!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] panosg1977:
The "Jumping to kernel" issue is caused when one uses the stock ROM and/or Radio.

You need:

1. HSPL

2. Newer Radio

3. A custom (Android-friendly) WM ROM

4. An Android build

Basically you need to go back to square 1. Do a search in the forum using the terms I mentioned.

Hi all!

I start a first times android without problem but when I restart, I have several error messages that scroll with this one: "directory inode has xxxxx an unallocated block" and a lot of numbers.

In the second startup I lose all my settings and sometimes Android does not start. :(:(:(:(:(

ROM: Last Energy

Radio: 2.12.50.02_2

It happens with my new microsd SanDisk 4gb and all Android. no problem with the original 2GB microSD.

I tried with Shubcraft, Hyperdroid 1.1 to 1.6, Mdeejay_eVo_Sense_v._1.6_REVOlution.

Thank you in advance for your help

Small question I've been looking for through a few threads,will there be a chance footprints will ever get back to working condition or is there an android rom out with it out already working because all so far I've tried does the instant shut down thing.Thanks for any help given...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] itmhd2:
are there currently any android builds that work for daily usage that don't freeze so i could avoid using windows, or are all the builds under development, cause there's a lot of them?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] asctony:
Yes, I am running Android 2.2 en-us Nexus One Build/FRG33 on my SD Card without any problems. Been running it instead of WM daily for over 2 weeks. My HD2 T-MobileUS has the following:

R 2.08.50.08.2

G 15.34.50.070

D 2.10.82076.8G

I did not change anything above and left it as it was when I bought the phone.

I am very pleased with it and really like it as it does seem faster, has many more apps from the Android Store (than WM apps I have found over the years searching the Web) and many are Free. Those that are not free are cheaper than the WM versions.

I did have to transfer my Addresses, Calendar and set up other minor things, no problems.

Some of the things that I do not like about Android:

1. Must Power Off and then Power On to get back to WM OS. I have tried Dual Boot and still could not get any of them to work. Found a Reset that I use in Android and that shuts phone down and restarts automatically to WM.

2. I have tried TaskKill apps and Startup Auditor (Startup Disable and Keep Disabled) and they don't seem to do anything to prevent apps from restarting. Many posters say to stay away from these as they consume battery big time.

Some of the things I really like about Android:

1. Speed

2. Apps Store (Free Apps) so many (not as many as iTunes but most of what I want and need in a very clean display/format like a lot of Apple apps.)

3. Voice that I use instead of keying in Texting

4. So many more options to customize.

Hope this helps others who are thinking of DnL this OS.

CU S400 compatibility with Android

Hi,

I own the official CU S400 car kit for the HTC HD. When Using Windows, the navipanel starts when placing the device in the car kit, providing simplified access to the device.

Is there a similar app for this on Android, and even more important, is the app compatible with the CU S400 and does it starts automatically when placed in the car kit?

Missing App Menu & Low Sound

Here is the problem, I have had this setup working perfect for about 4 or 5 days now. Only problem I had was a lower volume when on android that I could not fix. The volume is 100 percent in windows befor booting android and I also tried audio boosters in windows and on android but no luck however if there is no fix for this then thats fine I can still hear but it would be nice to fix it. The next problem is today my application menu dissapeared. It has been fine but now once android comes up if I go to slide the application menu open on the home screen it just disapears and will not come back untill I restart the phone. Any info on this problem would be greatly appriciated. Here is how the phone is set up.

Tmobile Hd2

SPL = 2.08. HSPL

Windows Rom = Energy.Leo.21916.Sense2.5.DinikGlass.Cookie.2.0.Sep.29

Radio Version = 2.10.50.26

os version = 5.2.21916

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Android Info

Android Version: 2.2

Mod = Htcclay's SuperHD2 1.3

Build = FRG33

Like I said the menu was working fine and I had not run into no problems with this setup till now. Any infor or direction on this would be appriciated.

Thanks

i wanted to have andriod on it, idm wich one just android like 2.2

so i donwloaded that one, and then that black screen with white things on it goes but it stops and it goes black and just stays like that,

i dont know what the problem is, i restarted my whole freaking mobile for this ><

any help? please
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brainsurge2012:
Well what android build are you using? Also can you tell me what rom you have for windows? We need more info to help but most likely you will need to change your spl then change your rom to a rom known to work with android. There is a chance you could get it to work without chaninging but if its all stock from tmobile you will prob get a robotic voice once you get it working.

BY the way I just reset the settings in my launcher and that fixed my application menu.

Thanks I love it so far and have not had any problems at all with it. App store works, internet works, messaging I had to play with a little but its working now, I mean so far its been 100 percent functional and im loving it. No freezing or nothing.

thanks

Research

I would have to agree with the need for people to research. This is like my 3rd or 4th post and I had a 100 percent functional android setup on my hd2 before ever posting here. 95 percent of the information is there and the other 5 percent you have to learn or ask but the building blocks to get started are deff 100 percent there. There are many guides here from changing your spl to installing new roms and setting up android. Oh by the way most the guides are listed as stickys how hard could they be to find.

Any ways love the site and would like to get on the development team some day.

Thanks

hey guys i m using ChuckyDroidRom which seems to be a good base for android to run but i have to run Windows for IGO8 when i have to cause i found nothing equally functioning and with the maps that i need, which are simply impossible to find.. so the thing is the rom inspite of being a good base for android to run over, is really the least possible user friendly windows rom, and is Senseless (which is prolly one of the reasons why its a good rom for android to run over but anyway..) so that leads me to two questions.

1. can i anyhow get Sense extra and add it to it ? a file to copy and paste to a certain directory and reboot or anything so as to be able to customize it when running WM6.5 and have sense, for no other reason but making it user friendly and actually functional.

2. which is really the best rom to run android, which is apparently lightweight but would have Sense on too so i could use WM6.5 when i want to, cause i have to due to IGO8.

a real issue by the way is the keyboard... its like that of stylus using PDA's, which is frustrating on HD2 - a finger optimized 4.3'' screen device..i mean the whole issue negates the purpose of existence of the device. large screen = large stuff = easy browsing.

Want Android on HTC, but have absolutely no idea how to do so

Hello,

So I am completely new to unlocking phones and all. I've heard of it, but never done any myself. I recently bought the HTC HD2 and love the phone. BUT, I am not fond of Windows. I am more of a Mac person, been using it for the past 6 years and absolutely loving it! I like how Android is more like an iPhone and would love to have that OS on my HD2. I've met someone who has Android on their own phone and they said they got it from here.

I also wanted to know, are there any setbacks, technicalities, errors that are still being worked through as a result of putting Android on the HD2? Would it be recommended?

I just bought this phone and will not be getting any new one for the next two years as far as I know (or until I can afford to buy an unlocked iPhone 4. haha). I would really love to have a phone for that long that I completely enjoy and appreciate using.

If anyone is willing, will you be able to guide me step by step as to how to upload this (program? rom?) on my HD2?

Thanks so much!

I would love anyone's help!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Showtime7:
1. There are issues with every build, but if you can work around them you'll be fine. Some builds don't have working camera, others do but not full 5MP. Some builds of Android use 2 camera apps: one that gives you 5MP and another that gives you camcorder. No build is perfect but if you are good at tweaking things, I'm sure you can get a build to work well for you for daily use. Don't be fooled though, it's not a simple press and play. You will need to read the stickies and inform yourself of common problems and how to fix them because you will, most likely, run into some. Lately I've kept away from Android due to data disconnecting problems, wifi not working, freezes, etc... But I've been given advice on how to fix them by people who don't get the problems I do, it's just a matter of finding what works for me.

2. The best thing to do is read through the pinned threads here and inform yourself and try it. You won't brick your HD2. But make sure you read everything. It all starts with unlocking the SPL, you'll need to do this first.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lorddeff07:
Yeah, i have played around with all that.

- Tried with it charging and without

- Tried running the exact same rom on his phone and radio I was using

- put back his NRG.cookie rom that no one has reported having problems running android on back on his phone and changed his radio.... tried three different radios from the known working radio listing for android.

- Changed his HSPL from 2 to 3 (negligable since HSPL 3 is practically HSPL 2) and this was after I had done all of the stuff I have said at least 3 times over, then after changing his HSPL I did it all again....

I dunno man... it just doesn't make sense.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
OK, did you try turning stuff on / off (ie. bluetooth/wifi/gps(location))

Sometimes this will mess up the boot also. If you turn on gps and get a fix then run haret it prevented me from booting in the past. But also on other devices like the TouchPro I had to enable GPS / Bluetooth etc before booting. Don't know why this would work for him, but I'd give it a shot. Also out of curiosity is his phone TMOUS and what color is his little reset button?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lorddeff07:
interesting... well, that is one thing I have not tried. i tried turning of the autobacklight in winmo and even put senseUI off though. Will give everything else go and just turn stuff off and run haret then try wth some things turned on, though this feels like throwing paintballs at a wall and hoping something sticks... but as you said its worth a shot.

We both got our HD 2's from the exact same dealer, and its not TMOUS device. We got our phones way back in febuary. his reset button is red.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] trilbyfish:
Are the Radios and ROMs, which i dont really understand, for getting it to boot into Android, or are they needed to just use Android almost as another program?

Thanks in Advance
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lorddeff07:
think of the radios as what controls how your phone communicates with the outside world and how much power the things required to accomplish that draws. Now OS roms are tied to different radios, most of which will work with a wide gamut of radios.

Android like every other OS requires that you have certain types of radio roms to work.

This is a very loose layman description, but it should suffice.

Hi all,

I've done several searches here, but till now I did not find a fix... So maybe someone here who might know what could be going wrong with my 'setup'

I'm using Darkstone HD2Froyo v1 with Miri’s 6.5 V17 ROM. and radio 2.12.50.02_2

HD2Froyo is running great, but after shuting down the phone (running HD2Froyo) and restarting the phone again, HD2Froyo hangs at the boot process.

The only way I can get HD2Froyo to work again is to 'reformat' the SD, and do a clean install again.

I've also tested 'FD_DroidBoot' to autoboot HD2Froyo, but with same result.

Anyone here who might know what could be wrong, and how to fix this?
