Hi guys,

I have the freezing screen issue but only a barebones winmo rom installed, so can't do the calibration thing. I have total commander installed, but if i search for gsensor.dll i find the actual file, not the associated keys in the registry, and i'm pretty sure i shouldn't be deleting the file. Anyone tell me how to search for registry keys with total commander? Or exactly which keys i should delete?

Ta!

I have noticed that while I use "live background " the problem is gone. Same setting same Tom just static and live background. Can anyone try this too?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _tangent:
Update: still haven't found a way to make the registry thing work save for installing a diff registry editor, but i've had the screen/button freezing problem with every single build of android i've tried. Always a thousand times worse when walking around. I actually think there are two different bugs here for what it's worth. One is related to the gsensor stuff, and causes keys to stick on and the rest of the keyboard not to respond. This is much worse when moving. The other appears to happen on a time-basis. Every so often, the screen wont respond for 2-5s. However, it doesn't register a press and hold it down like in the first example, or at least it doesn't seem to. Of course, this is all anecdotal, so should probably be taken with a pinch of salt. I have found that turning off auto-rotate causes freezing problems when walking around to disappear completely. However, i would still like to try the reg fix if anyone can give me some advice re: specific keys to delete.

Cheers!

the calibration for g-sensor cannot be done by lite rom users..

and guess what? my android build has now cease to experience SODs after using 2.12.50.02.2 radio.. but the newer builds of subcraft (namely 1.2/1.2b and 1.3) has given me insenstive screens whereby the entire phone will either refuse to react (sort of like hang for a while) or have insenstive touchscreen while the phone's hard buttons remain functional..

i task 29 my winmo and reflashed radio and chuckydroid rom yet the problem persist even when i reformat my sd card and run the android builds from scratch, totally new without any old data and backups from titanium...

any1 else have experienced this?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _tangent:
Yeah i have that screen issue. As i described in the post above yours, sometimes the touch screen just wont react for a few seconds - doesn't register any presses. Not sure whether hard keys still work in this situation or not. Will test and report back.

I'm also using that radio version, and shubcraft v1.3. My winmo is the NRG Barebones. You think this is a radio issue then? i.e. with other radio versions the screen didn't experience strange freezing issues, but you got SoD instead?

I'd recommend Chuckydroid Rom and radio 2.10.50.xx or higher.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _tangent:
Deleted the gsensor.dll registry keys, but this has NOT fixed issues with the screen freezing whilst walking around in my case. It seems to have made no difference at all. The only thing which makes this go away is to disable auto-rotate in android.

Thanx for the suggestion. Trying it now and will update the first post if I find it useful. Thanx again.

It is a known bug and will eventually go away when we will get a NAND build.

thanks for the feedback. I will update the first post with this program as a possible solution as well.

umm..not sure about other lockscreens but I know someone mentioned fingerprint scanner lockscreen(which is actually a fake one scanner) but it might be worth a try. You will find it in market. Just search for "fingerprint scanner"

Also try a live wallpaper if you have a static one. It seems to be solving the delayed lockscreen prob. Please let us know if that helped or not.

Not sure what could be the cause here.

thanx for the feedback. Updated first post with this suggestion.

I am actually experiencing this right now on my phone. Where the touchscreen is unresponsive but hardware buttons work fine. I am looking for a solution. If I'll find anything useful I'll update the first post with the new info.

Gsensor trick is for getting rid of the screen freezes. Try changing your radio to get rid of SoD.

Robo voice is reported to be caused by combination of Rom/Radio..try different combinations.

yes this solution is already in the first post. Thanx for the feedback.

I'm not sure if using a faster card will take care of the SoDs bcoz some ppl have reported the prob of SoD even after using a class 6 card. I am using a class 2 card without any SoDs with a proper radio.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dubie76:
Good info, but doesn;t seem to work. First Chucky's new Droid ROM doesn't contain that gsensor.dll If it does, the registry editor is unable to find it in the entire registry. Second, Editing the battery life registry settings has already been done by chucky because they were already set at "0".I am already using 2.12 radio so that was a no go. I have deleted Advanced task killer so that is not my slow wake up issue.

In no way am I downplaying the great info here in this thread. I just want to point out that these items are not working and maybe someone could shed some new light on things for me and others who have tried the same.

Thanks for everyone's hard work.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Fixed for me

HD2 with HardSPL 2.10, radio 2.12, running mattc 1.5b.

I did the gsensor calibration in winmo and already had the power save in bsb tweaks. No more freezes, must have been the gsensor.

I thought winmo was shut down when you boot android, does anyone know why this happens? Can it be fixed in the kernel?

Great post!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] :
Follow the original instructions:

You boot into windows and calibrate the G-sensor there, settings/system/gsensor (i think). Then reboot to android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cranesky:
No use. Still encounter the insensitive touch screen sometimes.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Jealousy:
There's no way to completely circumvent it yet. Disabling the autorotate in Android will make it a slice better, but it still will appear sometimes.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] piggso321:
I am worse...

I tried calibrate in WM; del Gsenor.dll file; disable Autorot in Andriod; increase sensitivity in Flip

BUT, I got Freeze screen around every 10mins (hardkeys okay)

Like when i was playing abduction, freezes every3mins....@@ sigh......

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xpbuddies:
Calibrating the G sensor in WinMo and restart definately work for me. Make sure you reboot WinMo right after the calibration before starting Android. I even tried to abuse my Android OS by using lots of apps and doing things that would normally freeze, but it just won't freeze. Would suggest anyone doing this step first.

Since i switched from shu8i´s 1.4 to [mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.5b] i too am experiencing the robotic voice issue.

i tried several builds before and never had this issue.

i´m using the latest chuckydroid rom (not the 21.08. one, but the one before) and the 2.12 radio, so this combination should be fine, in fact this combination worked fine on shubcraft 1.2b and 1.4

any ideas, why i get the robot voice issue now on mattc 1.5b?

thanks in advance.

as i wrote in my initial post i am using one of the latest chuckydroid roms.

i flashed the rom and the radio about a week ago and used the latest versions at that time. so i might actually have the 2.14 rom, not sure though.

So since this combination worked on other builds it seems strange that this combination won´t work with mattc 1.5b.

i will look into this again tonight and flash the latest chucky rom and the latest radio rom and hope that this will work with mattc 1.5b.

WSOD sollution is this

I see in the first post the sollution for the WSOD. Ive experienced it before, since I installed android on my normal microsdhc. After I used automount to connect it as a diskdrive.

This is where it went wrong. Afterwards sometime it booted normally, but sometimes I get a WSOD and i had to remove the battery. Sometimes it worked/booted normally.

The last times it would not even boot after the second try, so then I copied the whole sdcard (backup to PC), formatted it the with 'SD formatter' (total write, erase and format proces) and afterwards I started with a fresh install of the android folder. All other folders i copied back from the earlier backup.

Since then (2 weeks now) i did not use automount in android, but only uses 'diskdrive option' when booted back to windows.

Ive never had a WSOD since then!

PS. I have seen this tip over the forum, but not in this thread / 1st post and think it is good info for others.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hardik119:
Thanx for the feedback!!! can you also try disabling the "background data" under "accounts and sync settings"? I blv the touchscreen freeze is caused by lack of CPU power(probably at times some stupid application(Gsensor drivers) is using way more CPU then it should and it is causing the trouble)

Well just assumptions as of now.

Could you please do it and let me know the effect on frequency of the touchscreen freezes?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Jammie_1989:
Started freezing again until turned off background data about 30 mins ago also have setcpu disabled and screen rotation off. So hopefully stopped now will post again when tested more. So far paper toss & air control haven't froze and normally do :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Martasdx:
freezing and SOD or others could be done because of S2U2 locker or something else. There's an option to lock the screen, when nothing is done for exact time - if it don't know Android, it's possibility, that the "screen" is locked.

When I turn off automatic screen lock in WM, Android is OK. Try it.

Thank you!!!!!! :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fi3ry_icy:
as far as i am concerned, none of the methods worked.. going into registry to remove gsensor.dll in winmo made it slightly worse at times and a bit better in some situations.. guess it evens out itself..

i am guess that it is related to the cpu as well because when using SETCPU, and underclocking, my phone becomes laggy when either the gsensors are used or when there is heavy processing required..

doing both at the same time causes the phone to have the irresponsive screen but functional hard buttons problem.. seems that the gsensor overloads the phone with feedback on the phone movement, mayb the sampling rate and not the sensitivity should be tuned down...

great combo

Before I had freezes all the time battery life was poor etc...

Then I changed everything.

1. Formated my Trancent class 6 8gb microSDHC with SD Formatter 3.0 (Beta) for SD/SDHC/SDXC

2. Updated radio to Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2

3. Wiped WM rom with tool 19

4. Flashed newest ChuckyDroidROM

5. Downloaded shubCRAFT 1.4d and swapped kernel with michyprima@mainframe #80 (r8) no temp check

6. Started android and installed BatteryFu

And thats it haven't got even one random freeze or screen freeze.

Battery drain in standby is 1% 45-60 min

Tomorrow I am going to try setcpu and my bet is i'll get 1% 1h-1.5h.

Hi,

I'm running mattc's 1.6b build with a ChuckyDroidROM as my WinMo.

I've tried all the solutions for the touchscreen freezes described in the original post, but i'm still having the "hard buttons work but the touchscreen doesn't" type of freezing.

I was just wondering something. If the GSensor is truly the resposible for this issue as so many people seem to think so, wouldn't it make more sense to simply disable it in the kernel until someone can develop a kernel that doesnt cause the freezing?

I know lots of people LIKE the GSensor feature, but i really think its not a must have, specially not at the cost of so many freezing issues.

If any of the wonderful developers that have been blessing us with so many great Android builds could make a kernel branch that doesn't include the GSensor, i think many people would be very grateful. What do you guys think?
