Hi, I installed just few hours ago the cooked version of Froyo for tattoo and I was quite happy (apart from the usual known bugs ..).

the thing that interested me most was that this update supports Flash Player 10.1, then megavideo and various games.

I managed to find a working apk of the flash player and when installed, if I open the browser (both the android one and Skyfire) just after a few seconds the app closes automatically.

I think that the problem is on the little amount of tattoo ram, correct me if I'm wrong.

I also read that you can change the way the phone handles various partitions of RAM and a create a swap partition on SD.

These two things could solve the problem? Can you link me some guides? I could not find any!

Thanks for your attention, and sorry for my bad english!

Hi,

If i want to setup a bluetooth PAN on froyo, how would i go about it?

I've tried using sdptool to advertise the PAN after ive started pand

but my macbook isnt picking it up, so i draw the conclusion that the

Some detailed instructions would be good.

Thanks.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huanyu:
Currently, the ROMs have a fix size of data image which can be changed by the users, so the ROM developers need to upload multiple copy of the same ROM with different size of data image. I modify the rootfs init script to read the kernel cmdline and create the data image (if no data image exists) based on the user input. If this value is presented, a default value of 512MB is used.

How to use:

in the startup.text file

set cmdline "rel_path=Android data_size=1024"

The "data_size=1024" tells the init script to create a data image file of 1024MB, if the data.img does not exit.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] longobongo:
so we just copy the init file to /android rename old data.img and change that line in startup .txt thats it? sorry i know it says for developers just wondering if i could change my 512mb data store to 2gb? would be nice if i could :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huanyu:
This init script sets in the rootfs not the android directory in the sd. You can copy it to the root of your system. Then del data.img and change startup.text, this might work. I can not promise you as i only tested it on my own rom never tested on any other roms.

The two areas I got it were at the corner of Herndon Ave and East Colonial Dr (there was a Sprint store there, so I assume thats where the 4G signal was coming from) but I was averaging around 2-4mbps down, 1.07 up, the other area was in my city of Winter Park, which surprisingly the signal has been penetrating inside my house rather well and I've been getting around 7-9mbps down, 1.9 up.

I would say 3-4m is a general average. As said before buildings suck for the most part. I have gotten it inside a few buildings at UCF. If you are outside and in covered areas then you should be good.

SOD is your worst nightmare. It is what keeps HD2 android users up at night. SOD has detroyed families and can bring even the most hardened,and diligent smartphone user to his knees and make him or her want to prostrate before the android gods and beg for forgiveness.

This "disease" will cause you to lock yourself in a room for days and make you feel like Russell Crowe from a "A beautiful Mind".

Trust me, you dont want it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ForceField:
Haha,your funny.:)Couldn't said it better.

It is probably caused by some errors on the SD Card but also it might be the amount of free memory left on it.

I was having some SODs on my old 8Gb card on which I had only 600Mb of free space(with Android).

So I made a FULL FAT32 Format(not a quick one which is simply delete) to remove all the unnecessary files.At first it worked but after adding some files and as the free memory was getting smaller the SODs returned back.So I switched to 16Gb card.

Always think of letting one third of the SD card free and if you need this capacity just switch to a new card.

Don't know if my SODs where caused be the amount of free space or some errors on the SD though.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] g29er:
I got SODs with certain builds. The thing that worked for me was switching to a new radio. After I switched, I haven't had one SOD on any of the builds I have tried.

Try installing radio 2.12.50. It worked for me.

Stormtroopers of Death, more commonly known as S.O.D., was a crossover thrash band formed in New York in 1985. They are commonly credited as being among the first bands to fuse hardcore punk with thrash metal into a style sometimes called "crossover thrash". Their 1985 debut album was the Headbanger's Ball intro anthem for many years.

They have also been a subject of controversy due to their politically-incorrect lyrics. S.O.D. member Dan Lilker has stated: "The lyrics were never intended to be serious, just to piss people off."

HAHA nice.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 801run:
Actually this is not such a bad question to ask. There seems to be many posters using the SOD term a bit too widely, indicating they do not know the definition of SOD. It is important to be able to differentiate between different problems with the Android builds, so people can relate.

SOD = Sleep Of Death. Not Screen of death or anything else. When your device is sleeping and you try to wake it using any hardware button, you will not get any reaction from your device. You will not see any image on the screen.

When I wake my device, I get to the lock screen but the screen is totally unresponsive to touch, is this SOD? No, it is not. The unresponsiveness might be temporary due to the accelerometer overload defect, or due to the wifi-sleep defect (in wich case it it is not so obvious that the device will in fact be responsive in due time if you just keep it from falling back to sleep by using e.g. hardware buttons repeatedly). In the end, you managed to wake your device and get a picture on the screen, this is not the sleep of death.

My device crashes in the middle of something, e.g. it hangs when I turn on wifi, is this SOD? No.

For example newer kernels seem to have the wifi-sleep defect for users with wifi-mac starting with 00:xx:... and there seems to be lots of people regarding the symptoms (the unresponsiveness of the lock-screen) as SOD.

Hey

thanks for bringing this thread up and thanks for all the answers so far.

I keep having the SOD's with the new Jelly Bean Roms on NativeSD. I am not quiet sure what it is and I would like to ask for help as well.

My Card:

32 gb Sandisk UHS1 ----- 1st part: 25.5 GB Fat32 ------- 2nd part 4 GB Ext3

I reformatted it already and also defragmented and checkdisked (as noellenchris stated in the linked thread). Those did not help.

My Phone:

MagLdr 1.13 and Radio 2.08

I use WP7 on nand with a different SD card which is formatted for that purpose.

If you have any more suggestions please let me know.

It happens so often that I keep my HD2 working by playing music with sound turned off all the time ;) I guess it doesn't go to sleep then...

Oh and if you cannot help me, I would like to ask you for a different favor:

Please don't answer with "funny" comments.

thanks!

I'm using unbranded Desire with no mods/rooting, udgraded to the latest official Android 2.2 version.

Here are my problems:

1. People say that they couldn't reach me (number unavailable) while I was on the network all the time. Doesn't happen very often (or I just don't know that) but is really annoying when it does.

2. I am connected to my home WiFi but browser/other programs say that network connection is not available. I have to turn wifi off and on again for it to work. Can it have something to do with the "energy management" widget?

3. My phone is calling people. I get a callback from people saying I called them but they couldn't hear anything (phone was in my pocket). I was wondering if it wasn't the case when I am finishing a call and pressing the red button to end the call but someone on the other side hung up earlier and when I press, the "call" function is activated. However I remember 1 or 2 times when it was definetely not the case.

4. I desperately need a PDF reader that allows to continue reading a book in the place where I finished last time. At the moment I need to be very careful not to close the pdf reader app. When I do I need to look for the page, really annoying. This should be a free app (Google doesn't want my money, they don't allow people from my country into paid appstore :D)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freakzone:
Hello, 1&2 are really weird problems, they might be connected with the radio, can you check your radio version in settings\about\software\baseband. Some people had problems with the official OTA. Just to be sure - is your wifi alright on other devices and are you sure you have sufficient network coverage. If you download torrents with a crappy router you are likely to get problems. If you're in a low signal area it is possible to lose signal while your device is in your pocket e.g. closer to the ground, when you pick it up you see the bars, when it's in the pocket the network dies. One thing you can easily do is a factory reset :D, this way we'll find out if any software is causing the problem :)

3 - you might be turning your device on and then pressing the screen and then calling people, it is not unheard of :). Ask them if they hear any noise like cars, people passing by and other stuff, if they do then that's the case :)

4 - search the market, there are a few, you'll need to try them to see which works best for you :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freakzone:
It might be worth to pop in the store, the unit might be defective, this radio is alright for froyo :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
If you only have a 2G connection, and are actively using data, all incoming calls will get diverted to voicemail because 2G only supports voice or data - not both at the same time. This is not an issue if you are in 3G coverage, when you can have simultaneous voice and data.

Note that this is a network side issue - 2G networks can be configured to prioritize voice over data, so that if a call comes through data is suspended, but as far as I'm aware most networks (in the UK at least) do not support this.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allerune:
I guess there is no point going to the store with a problem that cannot be reproduced :-/

Anyway I don't think it's something physical, I suppose software reset will fix everything.

I had that with Nokias, there was a main board problem (every now and then it said "invalid sim card"). Every time I sent it back to the manufacturer, it came back saying "software replaced, tested, everything ok".

Thanks for help anyway ;-)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allerune:
Thanks Dave, actually my phone is set to automatically choose network type and I am using a widget to turn off mobile data since I have WiFi at home and only turn it on when I'm outdoors.

I heard that some phones cannot decide whether they should log into the 3G or 2G and that may be the issue. I have changed the settings to use only 3G, we'll see how it works.

BTW: Dave, is it London Ealing? I used to work in Ealing O'Neill's pub back in my student days :-D

is it doing the thing where you have the "3 unread" at the top of your app, but they don't show up as readable, or what?

are you rooted? backup, do a factory reset and set up gmail and see if the issue persists. if it does, then restore and try something else, if it fixes it, then just start over from scratch.

that's strange that gmail doesn't work right on wifi. it works fine for me. i'm thinking its either something with your profile, or your device specifically.

did you try clearing app data like i said in my last post?
[Droid Incredible General] ncwildcat:
This has been a problem with every rom I have tried - I am rooted. Never had this problem on my Droid. Push works fine on 3g, but does not work on WiFi unless I do a manual sync. Very strange. I have tried clearing the data, cache, and everything inbetween. I don't think it is a phone issue since all of my other data works fine on WiFi. Tried 2.2, 2.2.1, and even reverted back to 2.1, all have the problem. My wifi is set to never sleep, so that is not it. Also, I don't have any data settings turned off. Guess that Gmail just does not like WiFi
[Droid Incredible General] patches152:
Been on WiFi all evening with no issues. The fact that it happens on multiple phones with multiple roms makes me think its something wrong with your gmail profile or something like that.
