Darkstone,

I love your build, I was ready to throw my phone away till you did this.

Two, very minor, issues for you (FYI only if you do not fix them I will still love it):

1. When a text message arrives mid-call it alerts you at full volume

2. I cannot send MMS.

Thanks again for your amazing work.

Russ

oh, another little thing for you, (although it makes me laugh every time) when my phone is locked and the pattern comes up it says that my phone belongs to Adam and a number to call. I would imagine this number may be getting a few prank calls!

[HD2 Android SD Development] eliak:
best Android build ever created...

good work darkstone! :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] :
I've now come full circle ... back to Darkstone's builds. I've been checking out the ShubCraft build - very nice interface tweaks (Built on the Cyanogen Mod base) - but not as stable as the Darkstone builds. (I did get excellent battery life, though)

I'm very confident that V2 will be even awesomer :D. Darkstone hasn't disappointed yet.

A few things that would make darkstone's builds even better:

- The awesome Power Control widget used in ShubCraft's build - lots more options (Anyone know how what app they use?)

- Some of the great Cyanogen Mod tweaks for the notification bar eg. a battery % display (Don't know if it's even possible, but it would be great)

Some thoughts about Sense / NonSense (Pun intended):

I love the Sense merely for it's widgets, -> the dock on LauncherPro is way cooler. If only there were were a way combine the best of Sense with LauncherPro (eg. the FM tuner app & widgets, etc.)... any ideas / suggestions?
[HD2 Android SD Development] alegbes:
Try this out...replace the initrd in HDfroyo ver 2.1 with the one in froyostone w sence and then use the zmage and wifi file from 24.08.2010, then tell me how it went, it should be very stable if you dont mind losing your bluetooth completely and gaining the working cam from ver 2.1 :D everything else is ok

A few bugs boticed

Let me start this post saying that this is the best build i've tried on my hd2.

Though, after a few days of intensive use, i have found some issues:

1) The screen does not always wake up correctly after going to sleep. The phone keeps working, and the screen backlight is being turned on, but the entire screen is totally black. Need to take battery out and reboot.

2) Sometimes the music app sets the music volume really low when using headphones, i can barely listen to it. I'm sure is just the music app failing, because after this issue happened i ran the FM app and the volume was perfect.

3) The touch screen sometimes freezes for sec or two ( already Known )

4) disk mode not working ( already known ).

5) Wireless fails to initialize on boot. Works perfect after manually turning on. ( know bug? )

I would love to help figuring this bugs out by providing logs. Does anybody know an easy way to do this?

:r
[HD2 Android SD Development] niteowl360:
I find pressing the Home button 3 times or so when screen does not wake will usually light up the screen without having to soft reset. Counting approximately 3 seconds between Home Key presses almost always does the trick.

1. Press Power Button (If screen does not wake - Step 2)

2. Press Home Key once, wait three seconds

3. Press Home Key again, wait three seconds)

4. Press Home Key again, should light up!

Definitely quicker than resetting :)

darkstone get well brother, and take your sweet time because v2 will be all sweater :P

now just out of interest, the version of sense you have in this build is different from evey single other sense build ive tried and tbh its the thing i love the most about this build and the reason i am only ever going to use the froyostone series

so was this very clever modding by you or is it a newer version of sense for android?

keep it up b
[HD2 Android SD Development] groovinfingers:
I have a silly question.

With the FroyoStone build, there is a wallpaper image that depicts a desert. This image can be applied to the desktop and can be seen by going through the workflow to set a new wallpaper on to the desktop.

Where is this image file stored? I've scanned my sd card using Astro and I've not yet located it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] robertoestivill:
I'll give it a try next time i hit this issue

thanks for the tip
[HD2 Android SD Development] mick1475:
I've been on Darkstone's Sense builds since the first Desire. Extremely solid builds, love them to pieces :) I really, really like the look of this Sense version, much more refined than the older one. I'm very much looking forward to v2 here, no haste, though. Get better, get well, keep up the excellent work, Darkstone!
[HD2 Android SD Development] trmacdonal:
It is actually located in the .apk for the launcher. You can unzip it to get the backgrounds out. I have never tried with a sense build, but I know you can do it with the stock launcher.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Mod74:
Disabling auto rotate goes a little way towards reducing the freeze problem, especially on lock/unlock.

Or maybe I'm getting a placebo effect.

It doesn't work for me.

Mayme I can't be superuser?

WiFi stills doesn't work...

:(
[HD2 Android SD Development] azzzz:
I just follow the steps and was able to get WIFI to work properly after doing the terminal emulator thingy. :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] ottix:
WiFi

I tried again and again.

WiFi still says "Error"...

I remounted /system with "rw" option.

Then I copied that .ko file inside /system/lib/modules/wireless/b.../

and I checked its file size. It was ok.

I remounted /system with "ro" option.

I rebooted and....nothing :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] azzzz:
Which kernel did ya used? I was able to get wifi to work with the lastest zimage but when I upgraded to michyprima's #80 kernel, my wifi went dead again...

I then switched back to the working kernel and still got error...so I'm stuck too...LOL...

Update: I got mine working again. I open Linda's File manager and went into PHONE>System>Lib>Modules and delete the BCM4329.ko file. Exit and reDO the mount via terminal again and my wifi is working again. This is with the latest kernel and NOT with michyprima's kernel. Goodluck.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Smygflik:
The file shouldnt be in a folder inside the modules folder... just place it directly there (/system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko), also you will need to set chmod 755 on the bcm file, according to http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php...matching_Linux_kernel_modules_.28.ko_files.29

Althrough it says "Searching..." for me, it never finds my wireless, kinda weird.

Just some advice guys.

Back-up your MicroSD card regularly!!

My MicroSD card has corrupted since I changed to the latest Zimage. Have been busy trying to recover info from the card. I also experienced difficulties trying to reformat it :( Needed to download the latest SD format software. Just make sure you backup your card regularly. Especially if your like me and regularly saving to it. Anyway, should be up and running again with this shortly ;)

Aditionally, the touchscreen freezes very often although i am NOT using Launcher Pro. Any ideas?

GSM/WCDMA Switching

I checked and found one post about this. Appols if there are others. There is a problem with how it switches automatically between GSM/WCDMA. It seems to switch from GSM to 3G okay, but when it switches back down to GSM it gets stuck and drops the signal altogether. (calls and data) The only solution is to keep GSM selected in settings :( Have tried various radios an no resolution, convinced its the build. If you need 3G you need to select it when you need it, then manually switch back to GSM.

first of all thanks darkstone for this build ,ive been using it all weekend and havent had any major problems other than what was listed in the first thread , im running 0MEGA XT ROM v.11 and everything seems to be running fine off it , gotta admit i was expecting to play with it and go back to windows but im going to try and run it all week as my main OS if i get no hiccups then i will stay with it , only problem im having is syncing it to my computer , you may have answered that question so my apologies if you did , but whats the deal with that?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Scartty:
You must copy all files of android instalation and a "data" image to the folder "Android" on SD card ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] EmryX:
But. I already that file data.img on my Sd Card root.
[HD2 Android SD Development] faron.hadfield-jones:
When downloaded just move the android folder to the root directory. If you have tried another build before this one, ensure all the files are removed.

No files should be moved from the android folder - simples! :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Scartty:
Yes, the image data must be in the "Android" too ... it works. I know that the files should be at the root of the card, but I had the same problem as you, but I got this advice "copy all to the folder Android" and since then I have no problem with reboot.

Been using this build for over a week now. It's so good that I have not been on my windows side since I installed this! The only time I go into windows is to boot up.

I "accidentally" stumbled upon the scenes menu yesterday. It's great the way you flick across different setup screen configurations depending on what you are doing.

If anyone has any doubts on installing this rom, don't. As Nike would say, just do it -you'll love it :D

Well I tried the clean verison. When I click to launch the phone it says something like "the program isn't installed on your phone." Also is there any way to change the clock from military time? *(my phone now works when using the HTC sense version, though that one didn't work intially, it had me in emergency calls mode before) This thing is silky smooth so much smoother than the 1st Darkstone Froyo build

If you switch between WinMo and Android often - Android will act-up little bit (like shut down, non responsive SOD (reboot a must), etc.)

I keep Android ON at all times... no problems are noticed on my end at least other than a battery life :/

3G wise - as soon as you turn on WiFi 3G will disconnect automatically, that's how it is on my end as well... PS why would you use both at the same time?

Also, 3G should work fine after you turn OFF Wifi...

I can't make out what the caller is saying yet they hear me fine.

I put FroyoStone_Sense on my HTC HD2 yesterday. It worked the 2nd go around after formatting the SD card FAT 32 as stated. I have 1 major issue and a lesser one. It's a bit hard to answer the phone and when i do all i hear is strange sounds like ET's kids are calling me. Yet the caller hears me fine. 2dn is battery life was very poor it died in about 6 hrs. I did read through the posts and did not come across the fix for the phone not working. I did read about dome CPU throttling apps. Would ne1 point me to a fix. I am very new to this as this is my 1st go at it. Below is my info.

Do i need to upgrade the Radio? or Maybe the SPL???

- De-oxidized

- All bloat ware removed

- no sence UI

- Uses LauncherPro

Thats about it, if anyone knows of a ROM that fits the previously stated criteria. I would greatly appreciate it.

There is a Senseless Froyo-Fusion out, but I haven't tried it.

I personally tossed around the idea of a stripped down ROM, but like 2.1 can't get the AOSP dialer working, and the AOSP calendar had some wierd issues.

I know of at least one more established ROM dev that is currently working on a 2.2 version with sense stuff stripped out. I'm guessing we will see it in the next few days.

But other than CM, none of these are true sense-removed roms. They still are Sense at the core (framework level) but have AOSP apps in place of sense apps, and a different launcher. If you want a true AOSP, CM is the only one, and I'm pretty sure for other phones most AOSP builds are based off CM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
UPDATE - AUGUST 26, 8.38am: It is official. The Unrevoked team has developed a root method for the Evo 2.2 OTA. The basic process is a downgrade to 2.1, then using Unrevoked 3 + Unrevoked Forever and a new PC36IMG along the way to get full root access. Here is the guide. I guess this thread is now dead. It's a good thing. :)

*** Everything below this line is now outdated! ***

This question is asked several times every day here. This is the answer: If you have a new Evo with Froyo (Android 2.2) or have accepted the OTA update to Froyo, there is currently NO KNOWN WAY to gain root access. You cannot root until somebody finds an exploit in the new system.

There is also no known way to downgrade from 2.2 to 2.1 and then root that either.

The new release of Unrevoked Forever will NOT root an unrooted 2.2 system. It is instead a safeguard against losing root in the future even after OTA updates.

If you are a 2.1 user and would like to upgrade, you must root your 2.1 system FIRST, then flash a ROOTED ROM. If you flash an unrooted 2.2 ROM, you will not be able to root it even if you were previously rooted until somebody finds a way to root 2.2

Bottom line: If you have stock 2.2, you are stuck until further notice. Period.

This is true for the "leaked" .3 release and the "final" .6 release.

The "Easy Root" app by Unstable Apps has been reported to NOT work on the Evo.

I will change this post the minute a 2.2 root method is discovered.

CLARIFICATION: In light of a recent dialogue between myself and toastcfh (our forum mod whose work I highly respect) I want to make it clear that there may someday soon be a way to root 2.2, but nobody has reported that they have made any progress on this yet. There are talented developers looking for a hole in the system, and I have every confidence that something will emerge in the near future. I also encourage anybody who thinks they can make headway on this front to TRY! I do NOT want anybody to think that it cannot be done. I just want to make it clear that we do not know of a way to do it yet. I want this to happen as well. Please don't be discouraged! :)
