Both the ROM and the Radio version affect the implementation of Android, please read the first post in depth for instruction and troubleshooting.

Be sure to erase the "Android" folder every time you reboot Android from WM.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dbh369:
I've gotten this when I updated the zImage to the latest. If I use teh zImage that was distributed, I boot normally.
[HD2 Android SD Development] forquato:
Why ? I never had to do this after rebooting and Android is working!
[HD2 Android SD Development] slinkey123:
I had this problem, and nobody gave me an answer :( In the end i ended up installing HSLP3 and the latest radio version. Now i got android booted, but all the builds ive tried seem a little buggy :( Still great work to everyone! in a couple of months we should have a really good version :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] Amadeus13:
Dear Dcordes,

DarkStone and others are dedicating their personal time to what all of us have been long waiting for here - bringing Androind to HD2. I understand that the way they do it hurts your feelings, but could you please bring up all your patience and keep your concerns in your pocket until DarkStone and others resolve all the issues. Once we get some good and stable builds, your personal matter will definitely be addressed. Meanwhile, please, do not slow down those guys.

Thanks for understanding.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dj_ghosie:
That's the only way I could load up Android after the first boot....
[HD2 Android SD Development] ess2k:
you need to flash your radio rom,i believe.

android will not work on stock 1.66 radio as i remember myself having problems with this back then.

flash your radio rom to 10. or 12.
[HD2 Android SD Development] elgar:
I am experiencing the same problem. I've asked about it here, but no one seemed to be able to answer. I had this problem when I tried to use the latest zimage from Cotulla's site. If I don't change the zimage that came with the build (the sense one), android boots up, but google service framework isn't able to load, which means I can't use gmail and so on. I'll try a different ROM, the one that is used by Darkstone to see if it makes a difference.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shineproductions:
Re: Post 941... Dcordes is totally right... BUT...

Dcordes is totally right, regarding the proper protocols to follow BUT....

If he really wants cooperation, and teamwork, he should communicate with Darkstone via personal message, instead of attempting to publicly flog, and embarrass him in his own thread. LOL :)

Can we all just get along?
[HD2 Android SD Development] bangsters:
can you provide me more info, and i'll help you solve you problem (hopefully).

1. what HD2 are you using? TMO US?

2. Did you run hspl3 or is it still using stock HD2 winmo? If so, what ROM did you install?

3. What Android build are you trying to install?

4. How exactly did you install android? This might shed some light along with the rom you're using.

5. Other info which might help in diagnosing your issue. Like what exactly happens.

Feel free to PM me if this gets lost with all the posts coming in :)

[HD2 Android SD Development] Death2494:
You're are going to need to provide with more information regarding your phone. First off, if you are using a stock rom then that might be your first problem. I'm using ChuckYdroid Rom on a TMOUS HD2. I using mattc Froyo build 1.5 (based off of darkstone froyo build). Only problem I'm having if batty life issues buy it's not related to the rom. Oh Btw my radio version I'd 2.10.5
[HD2 Android SD Development] elgar:
Thank you for trying to help!

1. I am using a non TMO US Hd2

2. I have hspl2 installed. I am using custom Russian ROM (which is very close to official)

3. I am trying to install FroyoStone build with Sense (froyo 2.2)

4. I copied the "android" folder to the root of my SD card, and changed the zimage to the latest cottula's (which couldn't boot). So I kept the original zimage that came with the build.

5. I installed the dual boot cab and boot android after doing softreset in WM.

6. My Radio is 2.10.50.26
[HD2 Android SD Development] bangsters:
I'm not sure about the rom you're using. try miri or chucky. As for radio I'm using the same radio and I'm using Tmobile US version as well.

When you copy the android folder and then try to boot it as is, does it work? If you get an error, what error, or where do you get stuck?
[HD2 Android SD Development] noellenchris:
WOW, you guys are totally missunderstanding dcordes.

zImages come from the GIT, the GIT compiles changes with all the latest updates and tracks the changes for the best possible troubleshooting / tracking etc.

If everyone keeps tweaking the kernel that others made and no one commits it to the GIT, then it all gets screwed up and stuff can get lost, plus lots of extra time for dcordes to recompile it all.

The rom cooks know this already, but everyone keeps downloading their test files from their servers and not the GIT. This is wrong.

First of all, all the roms that the cooks are making are based off of Cotulla's/dcordes/phh kernel work. It's not right to mess with their work haphazardly! It's ok to add and change as long as it's tracked. This way we can all end up with the best possible kernel, and not repeat the same mistakes over and over again.

So dcordes is not being rude, it's not personal, it's exactly the way it should be using the GIT etc., to protect and help us all.

HE IS LOOKING OUT FOR OUR BEST INTEREST!.

So respect his wishes and read before you post nonsense!

I, like everyone reading these threads, want Android running perfect on my HD2, and if you also want the same, follow dcordes leed!:D
[HD2 Android SD Development] elgar:
I stuck at the point when android is already loaded. I see Sense, start putting my personal account information), but cannot use gmail, as a window pops up saying that Google Service Framework stopped working.

So, I'll try Miri's Rom to see if it solves the problem with google service.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dipaolnv:
What are you trying to move?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bonobow:
Everything like Micorsoft Myphone can do.

but i want it all to transfer to Android...

and how to do vice versa...?
[HD2 Android SD Development] DarkStone1337:
Hi dcordes,

I don't understand how this is an insult to everyone working on the kernel? Please elaborate...

These same people working on the kernel are PROVIDING the binaries. You say that is insulting to them? If it is that insulting, why are these same people still updating their pages with newer binaries? Aren't these same people breaking GPL if they are not providing the patch/source? If a user asks for the source, they can ask the author of the compiled binary for the source.

This is twice you have posted this exact same message on this thread. You are much better off making a thread on this forum section and having it stickied if you really want to get your point across to all 'chefs' instead.

I do link to GIT. I also link to the original authors build site too. These kernel binaries are based on the source from GIT, I do not see the issue here. If you want the source, you should be complaining to the people compiling these binaries too. They are not providing them until later.

In any case, in order to keep folks happy, I will not include any kernel with newer builds. Users will be forced to compile/download precompiled kernels.

But keep in mind that HTC themselves don't release sources until weeks/months later. Why pick on XDA users?

This is not the thread to discuss GPL, you know that I am on IRC. Contact me there, I will be open to any kind of change or suggestion. Embarressing me on my thread does not accomplish anything.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dipaolnv:
I think the best way to do this for contacts, calendar and emails is to set up a gmail account and use ActiveSync to sync to gmail. When you boot Android, the gmail will sync back with the phone. Files, i.e. pics & music of course will already be on your sd card and accessable from within android. What else is there? Texts may be a bit more problematic. But you can always go back to WM if you have to look at an old text, right?
[HD2 Android SD Development] lemonspeakers:
to darkstone1337,

Will the new build of froyosense have express theme or the original evo theme? I prefer the original. =D

And to clarify, the hd2froyo will be completely (in all aspects) sense clean?

Thanks and I am loving ur froyoclean build! excellent aside from the touchscreen unresponsiveness issues. =)

keep it up!

Great build Darkstone!!! This is awesome. Running much more smoothly and not sucking my battery dry. The only thing not working for me is the phone call audio on my bluetooth headset
[HD2 Android SD Development] shineproductions:
exqueeeeze me lol hehehe

:) Just to clarify:

I said that Dcordes was right, BUT that there was no reason that he had to post in this thread, (the way he did) ...when he can send a personal message to Darkstone instead.

I don't think i misunderstood anything, and i don't think what i posted was nonsense.

Thanks for sharing your point of view.

Transfer Contacts from WinMO to Android

To transfer your contacts from winmo to Android, follow these steps -

1. Sync your contacts using Active Sync with Outlook.

2. Open Outlook, Go to Contacts.

3. Select all your contacts.

4. Under Actions... look for forward as VCard. It will compose a message with all your contacts as a .vcf files.

5. Email it to yourself or your gmail account.

6. Gmail has a handy tool that says "Download all attachment as a zip"...saves you many steps of saving them one by one which defeats the purpose. So save the zip file on your PC.

7. Unzip it and save it on your SD Card.

8. Boot up Android and go to Contacts.

9. Choose Import/Export from SD card> Import ALL contacts from SD Card

Viola! :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] djingonthenet:
Come across a problem, don't know if it is part of the build or not. When replying to a text, the htc messaging app strips off the + from the phone number resulting in a message not sent error, it can be worked around by just writing a new message then selecting the contact. It's not the senders number being wrong either as when I view the message details it shows the correct number +44.... when I vew the reply message (from me) details it shows 44..... No big problem, but annoying.

BTW This is the sense build, haven't tried the clean version.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bonobow:
Thanks,

but this one is better

"I think the best way to do this for contacts, calendar and emails is to set up a gmail account and use ActiveSync to sync to gmail. When you boot Android, the gmail will sync back with the phone.

[HD2 Android SD Development] elgar:
I have a non TMO US HD2. I have flashed my phone with miri's rom v17. I have radio 2.10.50.26. I have reformatted the sd card with fat32. I have copied the Android folder to the root of the card. (Froyostone build with Sense)

With all of the above I am able to boot into android, but still get the same error about google service that cannot run (google.process.gapps). What am I doing wrong? I get the same error with two different android builds that have Sense.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Sab3elbromba:
Mr Darkstone I cannot thank you enough, you really have brought my HD2 (and everyone else's) back to life, Android is the life!

Quick question though, I have heard that some Android builds to do not stop charging after battery has reached 100% and can cause overcharge and damage the battery, is this the case with this build or is it ok to leave it to charge overnight ?

Re: Wifi under Android?

1st let me say I did a search under Wi-fi and 3G and didn't find an answer so...

I have a question about internet connectivity under Android

My Phone:

HD2, TMOUS,

Radio 2.10.50.26

ROM - Energy LEOIMG.nbh Aug-6-2010

Running Android FroyoStone_Sense Aug-6-2010

I have a home Wi-fi (128 WEP) and the phone appears to connect fine to it under both Android and WM. Both O.S.'s report "connected".

But I can't connect to Google maps, Market or the surf the web under Android. If I activate my 3G connection (T-Mobile US, running under the Android data plan) then the above apps are fine, provided I disable Wi-fi. If the Wi-fi is active it apparently takes priority over the 3G and I can't connect.

Is there some sort of setting or something I'm not doing correctly to use Wi-fi under Android?

I've tried Ping-Pong and other Wifi apps to try to resolve the issue. As far as I can tell I have a valid IP address, DNS and gateway.

I'm using a Belkin N router with 128 bit WEP. The phone connects fine under WM, just not under Android.

I also tried two open wifi hotspots - same results.

Again I am NOT having a problem with the 3G/EDGE data connection. My problem is with wifi.

Thanks!

Man instead of wasting your valuable time on items which are basically only Eye Candy like Sense or Nonsense, I would humbly request you to concentrate on the practical aspects of ROms for their usability on a day to day basis like, Bluetooth Headsets for Calls, USB Transfer, Wireless Tethering, to name a few.

When i make a call, my screen goes black and it won't turn on if I move it away from my head. Also I can't hang up calls.. I have to remove the battery to close the calls, or else it will go on forever. unless the other person hangs up of course.

Been using the sense version with no issues at all untill this morning when i realized my phone went back to WINMO ( probably after self-reset ) ... Now my phone reset more and more and i am loosing certain functions little by little ...

HTC sense wont load anymore and I cannot use Launcherpro either ... same thing with live wallpapers ... I cannot place any widgets anymore or even apps or shortcuts ...

Calls, MMS and emails still work normally, including notifications and also market access and download ... But the whole graphic/screen items is gone ...

Any input ?

[HD2 Android SD Development] bangsters:
strange.... i've never had any problems running the froyosense build. Just copy the whole Android folder to the sdcard supposedly. Did you try reformatting (not quick format but full format and use 32k blocks)

Also, check the startup.txt file, this is what I have for froyostone build:

set mtype 2524

set ramaddr 0x18000000

set ramsize 0x0fc00000

set initrd_offset 0x00a00000

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline ""

boot

If it doesn't work, which it's supposed to, try changing set cmdline "" to set cmdline "rel_path=Android" as other builds use that....
[HD2 Android SD Development] gdspd:
First of all, thank you Darkstone for your great builds!

Some feedback of testing your 7th of August builds for a few days:

- Great performance, very smooth.

- Good call audio quality. Noone has complained :)

- Good wifi and wireless data connectivity.

- Speedtest.net results:

- Ping: 132ms

- Download: 1.29mbps

- Upload: 0.1mbps

Apart from the known bugs/non-working items you mentioned:

Camera: after taking a picture, a grey "box" moves into the screen from the right side, in the middle of it it seems the missed calls icon is displayed. (I can post screenshot if necessary, but this is most likely impacting everyone?) And zooming doesn't work yet.

TS: Sometimes the touchscreen becomes non-responsive for a few seconds, waiting shortly with giving input or pressing a hardware button solves this problem for me. (I have never had to hard-reset yet. Can't say the same for WM6.5 ;))
