My build with no SOD, good battery life

Windows: Miri build

Android: Froyostone Sense V2

RADIO_2.12.50.02_2

HSPL3

I used to have a 2.10 radio and HSPL2. One of my biggest battery drainers was cell standby and I'd always get SOD. Now that I have switched to the 2.12 and HSPL3 I have had much better battery life and no SOD.

Also, I used to use SetCPU and I think this may have been a problem as well. I got rid of that, changed the radio and hspl all at the same time so I can't really say which (if not a combination of the 3) stopped the SOD and improved battery life.

Even though it's not running smoothly-

still addicted to it, and don't want to go back to winmo, it's so funny when you waiting for that important call or txt, and the phone freezes up LOL!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] runningdap:
using the beta version of Desire HD rom on Energy rom and im loving it so far! It is really fast and smooth and much more adictive than winmo UI imo :P

have only tried the basics and the only drawback i can find is that the camera wont work.

i really hope android will be able to be used for daily use with all features (flawless roms to be exact :P)!

Originally registered just to dl HSPL, but thought I should post my results.

Tmobile USA HD2

Energy.Leo.23138.Sense2.5

Radio 2.12

HSPL3

Darkstones Froyo v2.1

was originally running stock WM, but switching to Energy fixed the robovoice, even after flashing radio didn't, and with the custom ROM even WM isnt painful to use.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jellywobbles:
Did just the same but with 2.12.50.x radio. (Have to say that I think the Energy ROM series is cutting-edge for WinMo)

Again - did just the same. Cant help saying (& I dont want to offend anyone) but Android has a bit of a "Fisher Price" smack to it - well the version I am running does! I have also "played" with other Android phones in PC World, & came to the same conclusion!

No doubt about the huge number of Android apps - many of which are of no use to me (but then, the same can be said of the iPhone's apps)

I find that WinMo & my Energy ROM does everything for me & more! Very fast - no crashes, almost 2 day battery life with everything on - screen at full brightness! No doubt; it has transformed my HD2! Thanks to Cookies Home Tab I have got more icons available than I could ever need, and everything is easily & quickly accessible, without having to drill down and start looking! Cant say the same for my HD2 when its running Android!

My sentiments exactly

... maybe due to the Fisher Price interface? ;)

Agree 200%! Maybe its even better! Having said that, I am eager to experiment & try new Android releases as they develop, but right now - as a productivity tool (thats why I bought it!) my HD2 in the current Energy ROM livery fits the bill, and IMHO is without doubt the best offering today in its class!

Radio 2.12.50.05

MATTC/Sense1.8

It runs brilliant. i've been abusing the phone for a day now and still on the same battery charge (31% left).

No screen freezes, HSPDA runs smooth, WIFI runs smooth, all works without any problems.

Expect for Footprints, though i doubt it that anybody knows WHY this particular feature does not work on Android for HD2 :)

All in all, my HD2 Android is running like the wind! :p

Sad!

Not very happy.

Too much lag when coming out of standby. - Update: Issue fixed by uninstalling ATK

Battery drain.

Can't adjust volume during call, sometimes it work, sometimes it's very high and can't be turned down.

Takes a long time before screen turnes on after proximity sensor turns it of. How to turn proximity sensor off completely?

I messed with a coworkers phone and put android on that. That one ran horribly. I tried changing radios, windows roms, everything... and his phone would get constant bsods.

Now, fast forward to a phone i bought myself.. stock windows rom, stock radio that it came with.. and my android experience is smooth as butter. It doesn't even feel like a windows phone anymore. Windows feels like the "extra" os and android is the right one for it.

FANTASTIC!

Had my HD2 for just over a week now, and it runs android perfectly. The only problems I have experienced have been data drops and power issues. The power issues have been fixed by the illuminated buttons trick when starting haret, and the data drops I'm getting around by toggling airplane mode.

On the whole very impressed! To think I almost bought a desire hd ;)

it runs now pretty well for me, but i have one problem again: the phone gets extremely hot. i have batteryindicator installed so i see the temp -> and sometimes it goes over 36°

that should NOT be. it doesnt feels right in the hand when the device is so hot...

someone said i should use setcpu to fix this, it helped a bit, yea.. atleast it cools down, after like 30mins not using the device... but it gets that hot as soon as i use it again.

that suxx, and is the only point preventing me of using android more than winmo :P

nobody got any solution for this? i dont know, probably my searching skills suck today, but i didnt find anything :P
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] M&ate:
D4rkSoRRoW, maybe try some different kernals? With certain builds I've found that kernals can not only create freezes and lags, but heating issues as well, sometimes even with the stock kernal. Also, I think the whole system working together means a good Wm rom meant for running android is required!

Update: I've been using Mattc's 1.8 since it came out. I've done alot of the fixes and updated kernals a few times (settled on Hastarin r7.6). I've taken the liberty of trying other builds, but for me this one has given amazing results. I get a full day of abuse with one charge. I'm a huge texter and I use my phone to browse at work, and I also jam out on my hour long commute! It just keeps getting better!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Spl4tt:

Here is my contribution:

*HD2 European version with 576 mb enabled

*WM Rom: Dutty's Leo Holy Grail V4.3 PTG

*Radio: 2.12.50.02_2

*HardSPL3

*Android Rom: Mdeejay FroYo Sense v. 2.7 NextSense

For me, the best Android Rom i've ever tried. Till now, only one issue. Sometimes, touchscreen stops responding for a second or two. Only happened twice. 26 games installed and a couple of apps and let me tell you. From all Android Roms i've tried, that its the only one where i can run ALL installed applications without any kind of bug and freeze. :cool::cool: Fast, stable and for the first time, making me think on Android as my daily OS. Last sunday used my HD2 Android all day connected to my home network. Using it and abusing it :p:p, installing, uninstalling, playing, etc..., only needed to recharge at night when i went to bed. Almost the same batery consumption as Windows Mobile.

Using Tytung's NexusHD2 v1.6 exclusively now. I've updated the kernel to Hastarin r8.2 and added the ril.wrapper .04. This build is working smoothly and the battery life is nothing short of amazing. Everything I use on it works flawlessly (I don't use everything, just everything I use is flawless). And I'm using the T-Mobile G2 launcher. Overwrote the stock launcher with SUFSB rather than just install it.

This build works as smoothly and seamlessly as the actual G2. CurrentWidget number is 4 to 6 mA after standby. JuicePlotter shows 22 to 24 hours on a 90% battery. If there were a flashable ROM of NexusHD2, I would likely flash it.

2.12 radio

ChuckyRom

FroyoSense 3.2

Everything is fine except for answering calls from a locked screen. Unlocking just seems to freeze it for a bit and its hit and miss if the call actually answers before voicemail kicks in. Very annoying.

Other problem is 3 out of the 4 times I've rebooted android it doesn't load up again. Blue screen or stuck at the htc logo. So I try not to let the battery die!

VMBrom

Radio 2.15.xx

HSPL 2.08

NexusHD2 Build 1.6 with 8.5 Kernel

8gig class2 sdcard

This setup works the best for me so far, battery lasts for about a day, using whats app quite often play some games from time to time, at the end of the day battery is about 20-10%. My internet connection is on all the time, so the 3G network, im getting around 7mA standby. Sometimes the keyboard freezes, quite annoying. But then only few data drops a day, so people can always reach me via whats app for example :) GPS is working great, great use with google maps app. Build is really fast and pretty stable so I love it :) waiting for new kernels and updates of the build :)

Android ran fine in mine but font was too small

I can't recall the exact name of the Android Rom I had on my Telstra HD2 but despite how well the it ran on my device, the font size of pretty much everything(internet, facebook and e-mail)was too small and the only way I could see to fix all that was to use a third party app called Font Size from androidzoom.com, but it requires root access, which isn't going to work for an Android port. If not, for that I'd still be using Android on my phone right now. Any suggestions on how I can remedy this are certainly welcome.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] markmarkr:
Some ROMs change the screen density to make the screen look more "high rez" ie everything is small. Try a different ROM that uses the default screen density.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] M&ate:
@ happyhd2owner

I'm pretty sure that all the roms have root access. You can tinker with the files system pretty hard. You can theme it, change status bar colors, install all the apps from the market that require root access. All this would at least lead me to believe that most roms come rooted. In regards to text, I know you can mess with the browser size, and I'm sure there are some system ones that can be modified as well.

UPDATE:

Flashed radio 2.15

Flashed the latest Chuckydroid winmo rom

Now, exclusively using NexusHD v1.7 by tytung

I'm sticking with the kernel that it comes with (hastarin r8.2) due to the logic of the build being optimized for that kernel.

I get about a good day with heavy use (I text all day, listen to music, browse the web, play an occasional game, d/l from the market, and tinker with the file system to see what I can change and make look better). Admittedly, I do use my car charger at least once a day for one of my 30 min. commutes. I'll usually stand at 30% at the end of a long day.

This just keeps getting better my friends.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sgro:
Using latest official HD2 rom as base WinMO rom, and using NexusHD v1.8 on top of it.

Working fine, does not freeze/hang like other builds I've tried, battery consumption is a bit too high with flat data connection plan (thus on all day) and it drops even faster if I need to use gps.

Let's say I have to fully charge it every night, while with WinMo battery lasts 2 days with the same usage.

Still, I wouldn't dream of going back to WinMo, Android is so much better.

My dad has converted to droid!! Xd

I personally do not own an HD2 but my dad does. Over the course of the las 3 months when I bought my Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant), I was basically flaunting in his face about how much more awesome Android is than Windows Mobile 6.5, and Window Phone 7. I also told him that he could get android on his phone; so sunday he finally broke and asked me to put it on his phone.

The task was quite intimidating because I had not put a non-stock version of Android on my own phone. Putting it on his sounded slightly scarier. I was under the impression the whole time that you could pull it off with the stock rom, and you really needed to do was an Hard SPL. So thats what I did; then I used the mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.8 build of Android (because it was based off the HTC Desire with some components for the HTC EVO 4G) and put it on the stock 16 GB SD Card. Using CLRCAD.cab and HARET.exe to boot into Android, there have been only the minor issues with his contacts and calendars in outlook but that can be easily fixed also.

Here is a quick link to the version of Android I used: total PRO SKILL POINTS to the guy who made it: spimonkey34.

2.12.50.02_2 radio

Stock 16gb SD

Launcher Pro Plus

I got to say the day my free hd2 came in the mail, the very first thing I did was flash android to it!!! So far I have not looked back one bit at WinMo. I've had a Moto Q, HTC Touch, and HTC Fuze (energy rom), I think it was time to give Android a try.

As far as overall stability & usage, I would give the builds I'm using 9.75/10 ( .25 are things you just got to deal with). I have not experienced any SOD, or fatal crashes so far. An occasional reboot fixes most things. As battery goes, I would like it to be better, but I'm using apps and setcpu to monitor it the best i can, lasts 9-11hrs of heavy use. My old Fuze has been sitting on a shelf, in standby, 4days and is at 80% batt, lol, but it does have a physically larger battery.

Any how, I am very very pleased to have an awesome phone, with an awesome OS.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kermix:
The really really short (tl;dr) version:

NexusHD2. Gingerbread. NAND. Everything is awesome forever. I LOVE YOU DEVELOPERS. The End.

The short-ish version:

I posted here at the end of August with Froyostone running from SD. I outgrew it. A few months back, I thought I bricked my spare HD2. Last night I figured out I was wrong, and now I'm running NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.4 from NAND. It's beautiful. It's only been up about 24 hours but everything seems to be running smoother than ever. Battery life looks really good so far and everything is visibly faster than my previous installs. I can connect Nook Color to Mobile Hotspot and run TetherGPS. I can die happy.

The really really long version:

Froyostone ran great despite minor issues that I didn't really care about anyway, but with time and apps and cruft, it started to develop more annoying problems. The version of SetCPU I had running seemed to be completely ignored by the OS unless I set it to powersave, and by the time I decided to do a clean install, there were occasions when the CPU would be maxed out and I couldn't tell why. To compound the frustration, network data transfer started getting really bad as well; toggling between 2G/3G or using APNDroid to "try turning it off and on again" seemed to help for a while, but restarting the phone was usually my best bet, and that was a long wait.

I was a bit worried that maybe I'd somehow messed up the hardware, but I knew I should troubleshoot the software first. I also knew that I wanted a build with mobile hotspot working which led me to NexusHD2, but I was nervous about trying NAND again after the first time I had trouble properly flashing a working ROM. Thankfully I could still boot to MAGLDR and eventually got a ROM to flash again the moment I opened ActiveSync (which made no sense to me, but once it worked I stopped questioning it).

So, not only did I *not* brick my spare HD2, but I ended the night feeling like I'd just brought it back from the dead. :D Next, I'll probably want to update my rooted Nook Color...

Thanks to this entire community for coming together and doing such amazing work. It's truly appreciated.

(And our HTC HD2s are currently on Langthang's 2.3.7 MIUI, since everything else I've tried eventually ends up buggy / slow / or has issues with SD card formatting, but the MIUI ROM is smooth and solid, even if it's not based on the latest Android version).

I don't believe Ive seen this mentioned anywhere yet, so I figured Id remind those who know, and inform the newbies who don't know.

Ive heard people who have applied various lag fixes complain that their phone slows down over time when opening apps. This "fix" i am about to mention is really easy and can help anyone not just those who have problems with an applied lag fix.

If you open Rom Manager and use Fix Permissions, wait for it to finish, then select Reboot to Recovery, and wipe Cache, and then go to Advanced Settings, and wipe dalvik cache, then reboot normally, your phone will hang at the Galaxy S bootscreen for a few minutes, it might take a while because it is rebuilding the dalvik cache, you should notice things running smoothly again and apps opening quicker.

Hope this helps anyone out there!
