Sorry to be a pain, but I can't figure out how to update the camera apk. Can anyone help me out? Using mattc 1.8
[HD2 Android SD Development] mihsu81:
Tried it. Maybe a bit faster.

P.S. Don't use hastarin's "initrd.gz". Use the original from the build.
[HD2 Android SD Development] locn:
I have been using Mdeejay hd version since 1.7 with hastarin 7.6 kernel. Then I upgraded to 8.2 kernel and was very happy with it. Was getting 7mAh on idle not as low as others have been able to get but I don't run setcpu or anything so was happy to accept it.

Today thought what the hell everyone is raving about 8.5.1 so I thought I would give it a go. Made full back up of sdcard reformat copied everything back on then over wrote with new kernel and put in the camera patch. Booted up ok after a couple of minutes to let it all sort itself out. Checked te kernel and then the camera it all was good. Only issue with camera is with flash I get a green tint but that's been mentioned here already. On idle getting about 6mAh so not complaining on iota.

Happy camper...

That's been my experience...

I cant seem to get my camera to work. I tried serveral things, I read several other things, but I can't seem to get it right.

First, I copied Hastarin 8.5.1 onto my SD Card via WM6.5. Restarted Android several times, works like a charm, camera, as exspected not working. So i tried michyprimas libraries. Copied them via WM to my Android folder and restarted. Didn't quite work. Tried several other things but to no success so far. So, what do I have to do?

Using: NexusHD2-FRG83D V1.7 PPP + RMNET.

So, can anyone help? If it is posted somewhere in detail already, I'm sorry. It's hard to find something in here...
[HD2 Android SD Development] stumbleine:
Thanks for your answers.

I think I'll give it a try.

Anyway, how it's the DesireHD camera app working?

I suposse you can't get Video recorder to work except with MMS resolution, right?

Hey Hasta

I am still looking for two important issues to be fix in the next version:

Issue #1: Wi-fi disconnects when phone is not in use for long time (15 minutes or more)

Issue #2: Battery charging is really slow when it reaches to 97% (it takes like 20-30 minutes to complete 1% thereafter)

Hope to see these issues fix in the next build :)

As always thanks for your great work and effort

[HD2 Android SD Development] dbh369:
I just wanted to check on this. The version of 99complete you have is larger and more recent than the version in camerafixes.zip. I think that means we should NOT overwrite that in our driver install?

Also, this appears to apply to Desire or Nexus builds, but does it apply to EVO builds like mine?

I put the 8.5.1 kernel in, with the root directory structure, but didn't make any other changes, until I knew I was going in the right direction. Please excuse me if I missed the appropriate posts, but I did search the thread for a comprehensive answer.

Thanks,
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
Just installed 8.5.1 on the MDJ Froyo HD v.4.1 build, along with all the modules and scripts in the root folder (pushed with adb, changed ownership and permissions in adb shell). Everything works fine, except for one strange issue :). I'm not sure whether it's kernel related, because I did a first boot with 8.5.1. I will cross post this in the HD 4.1 thread too, as I'm not sure what is causing it.

My led doesn't light when charging, although the battery info menu confirms that it's connected. However, when I softly tap the notification bar, the led starts burning. I thought it might be a loose contact, but it's not as it's working well in WinMo. When I receive a message in Android, the led lights up too. I restored the lights.qsd8k.so file which came with the build, same issue.

Anyone has a similar experience? Could this be related to the battery driver?

Sincerely,

Mac

Hi Hastarin (or maybe others),

Can you help me with something?

It's been bugging me all evening, searched for hours but could not find a solution or answer anywhere.

You once had in your first post that wifi uses less battery than 3g.

Normally with every build I get perfect standby readings of 3-5 mA.

But when I turn wifi on it nevers goes below 60mA.

And battery drains a lot faster.

Is this normal with wifi on?

Currently running MDeejay's HD 4.1 version with your 8.5.1 kernel.

But tried other builds and all act the same.

So whats bugging me then is why can wifi be more batt friendly than 3g?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Gv2004:
I do not have a PC Reader, so I can not install Kernal 8.5.1, is there build with at least 8.5 built into it? Every build I have tried so far, drains the battery really fast, even when I just text all day. I heard that the build's with sense drain the battery, but I can not find a Froyo build without Sense UI, can anyone help? I wish I could install this Kernel without having a PC Reader. Also what Build's can I use for this Kernel 8.5.1? Can't I just drag the Hastarin Folder into my Android Folder on my SD Card via WinMobile, then hit Haret to run the build that is in the same Android Folder?
[HD2 Android SD Development] CR5N:
I have always run sense builds and except for mattc1.8 and Hastarin8.5beta combination, I have never had battery drain issues above 20mA.

Are you letting the system settle down for say half an hour before checking current drain? Have you Rebooted after installing all your apps?

Do you live in a bad reception area?

Just saying you have poor battery performance is no good without some info on set up, build etc.

Phone: HD2

WINMO: Stock 1.72 + HSPL

Radio: 2.15

ANDROID: MDJ Clean 2.4

Kernel: Hastarin 8.5.1

Build or kernel?

I was talking on the phone, then suddenly the phone ended the call, closed all the programs, and said "Phone is shutting down" all by itself.

When I restarted, all apps that need rooted privileges fail to run. Oh, and the "startup" wizard was displayed at first boot.

What can possibly cause a systematic forced shut down and unroot a phone?

- My battery was low but still over 13%

- Hastarin r8.5.1 standard

- Hastarin's sig's mdeejay Froyo Sense Clean 2.3 + camera tweak

- Very few external apps installed or running.

- No overclock or undervolt in progress at the time of the misbehavior.
[HD2 Android SD Development] stumbleine:
Yes, you can do it without a card reader.

In fact, I've updated the last ones thru Android, without winmo or a pc.

Just download the files (zip from the link), unzip the files and using a file explorer (I use "Es Explorer" or "root explorer") and copy them to the \sdcard\android\ folder.

As you probably know, you have to move the roor folder, initrd.gz and zImage files. The "dev" folder is not necessary.

When it's all copied, you just have to reboot the phone. (Complete reboot, here it doesn't work Hot Restart. If you are unsure, just shut the phone down and boot it up again ;-)

I haven't had any issue doing it this way!

Hope it helps you.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
I have pushed all the files from the root folder to the designated locations on /, works like a charm after a reboot (allthough I have a small issue with the led, see one of my previous posts). You should however edit the last line of 99complete to

Something odd to report...

I recently switched from Vodafone AU to Optus. Before I would get 2-3 data drops a day, requiring a Mobile Data cycle to fix at minimum. Since switching to Optus, despite using mobile data MORE (I now have 2GB data in my plan) I haven't had a single drop. I have changed nothing else in my setup! Could this memory allocation issue be carrier specific?

Beta kernel - smd_tty patch variation

Hi folks,

I'm trying a different patch for smd_tty to see if it helps prevent the crash/loop taking up CPU some people are still experiencing.

The patch is this:

http://pastebin.com/YGg7am3c

I haven't had a chance to run my thoughts past LeTama and have done limited testing myself, hence the Beta.

As usual, use at your own risk, but if you're getting crashes/CPU usage issues with smd_tty with the current one it's not likely to be any worse. :p

Stock Evo kernel

Hastarin,

Im having random reboot issues with your 8.5 kernel. I know you mentioned that some phones cant handle your undervolt/overvolt kernels and using a stock kernel from the autobuilds should stop the issues. I was wondering if I use the latest Nov26th zimage/modules do i lose any of the latest camera/camcorder fixes? Or data fixes? Is the only main difference between the stock kernel and your kernels is the ability to over/underclock?

Im using mccm v3.4 evo build.

Extended battery update

Apart from the PPP change posted earlier I've spent most of today looking at the new battery driver and what it would take to tweak it to support the extended battery.

The good news:

I can detect the extended vs normal battery

I applied a similar "hack" to temperature readings and it's reasonable for the normal battery temperatures, but not correct.

I can use adb wireless to get data from my phone when it's in my freezer! :p

I may be able to hack something to work but...

The bad news:

I'm not sure I'll be able to figure this out 100% as it's incredibly complicated and I don't have weeks to do it. :(

Chances are anything I do will NOT be compatible with the current WM driver like my old change was.

Ie the 0-100% values might yet work, and be accurate, but they will NOT match WM

I'm still unsure what this will mean when booting via WM vs staying in Android

The extra capacity means any testing takes a LOT longer. :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] Downy:
For me, these are good news, the bad news don't really sound real bad.

Personally I don't need complete accurate values, if it comes as close as possible it would be ok for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] sblar:
It works for me too - meaning that it turns the screen off.

But with this and every other build and kernel I have tried, it takes some time for the screen to turn on again, which is pretty annoying when you want to turn speaker on on access the keyboard.

There's a significant lag when the phone is removed from the ear;

On an outgoing call, If I put the phone to the ear before the call is answered (which is very common), there's a lag of up to 10 seconds before the screen turns on again!

If I wait until answer before putting phone to ear, the lag is between 1 and 5 seconds.

On incoming calls the lag is between 2 and 12 seconds, usually high lag on first, and then getting lower...

In my oppinion this is the most annyoing thing about running Android on HD2 after the TS ans Gsensor freeze was solved, and I would love to see a fix on this also. Isn't anyone else having this issue?

I should mention that in WinMo there's no lag whatsoever, so it's not a HW issue.

Update: using phonetester, the proximity sensor works flawless!

I will be glad to help troubleshooting if this is not re-produceable - just tell me what to do.

EDIT: Never mind my signature, as mentioned I have this issue on different combinations...
[HD2 Android SD Development] mattwaddy:
I've just noticed the MDJ has released a Kernel with OC up to 1420 mhz. Any chance we could get the same done for this Kernel? Obviously perhaps everyone won't use it, but the option would be great.

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] lukesan:
Thanks Hastarin, very much appriciated.

Yesterday I received my Leicke extended Batt from Amazone.de.

I 'had' to play with the HD2 all morning and I can't miss it already. Still enough juice in it to play the whole day long.

For the people who want to buy it for a steal in Europe.

I bought mine from Amazone.de and the price was 14.99€ + 3€ transport costs.

Seems I got a reduction and I didn't have to pay the 3€.

I got the batt in 3 working days delivered to my house.

The batt and cover (also package) screams quality. So very recommended.
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Should I drop the Wireless N patch?

I can certainly release a kernel with the same rates he's got but...

IMHO It really isn't worth it. I've already shown benchmarks that show the performance difference is negligible.

I personally run mine at 1113MHz even though I've benchmarked it stable at 1306MHz. The difference in performance isn't worth the added risk to the processor and the added drain on the battery (faster clock speed at the same power level = higher power drain). At least that's my opinion.

I guess if enough people really want it I will consider releasing it in my next kernel.

That said, another release is probably a few days away atm as I'm waiting on feedback from the smd_tty Beta and also testing changes I'm working on to hopefully add some level of extended battery support with the new driver.

I tried your most recent kernel on DarkStones froyo 3.2 with sense and it seems to have notification light errors. The light won't flash, it stays on when a new notification is on.

@ Hastarin

to start with, thanks for Your great work.

can You share the settings You use for oc? do You use profiles? do You undervolt? I've tried to keep mine running at @ 1113 mhz, but I think that w/o uv I'll get less batt life than @ 998, am I right? also with 1113 I had one android reboot (just android, not the whole device to my surprise...) and maybe it's just me again but sometimes hd2 was stuttering on high cpu load, while @ 998 it was less common. does it make any sense? :P

thanks again!

@Hastarin

I was reading the logs earlier, and I noticed you saying to Markinus about the wifi problem. Is the problem your talking about when the wifi says operation timed out when your trying to load a page? Anyways that's the dilemna I've been facing. I rarely to never get it when I use sense builds. Always on CM6 builds though. Do you know what is causing this?

strange problem with kernel 8.5.1 on data mobile

on 8.5 kernel i got no problem to connect to data mobile

when changing to 8.5.1 data mobile stop work, when i place 8.5 back all back to work

any advise?
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
I just have a main profile with smartass set to 245-1113MHz Voltages are left at defaults at the moment. I'm not bothering with undervolting for now personally. Yes 1113 will use slightly more battery, but only when the CPU runs at that.

It doesn't make much sense to me but then neither does my kernel getting faster quadrant scores at 998MHz than mdeejay's at whatever he's tried pushing it to lately. :p

I don't use CM6. I have enough problems to solve on Sense first. ;)

The problem I'm referring to is that during sleep/resume I loose my connection. The WiFi tries to reassociate but gets stuck. It only seems to timeout when I go in to WiFi Settings.

Check the extra files I provide in root. Perhaps they aren't going to be of use to you. Though if it was them at fault putting 8.5 back probably wouldn't fix it. Unless you're restoring a backup of system.ext2 as well.

Really not sure sorry. The difference to 8.5.1 is minor and, unless one of those scripts/options I've included isn't working for you for some reason, shouldn't cause data issues.
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Extended battery update

OK so here is another update on my attempts to modify the new driver for Extended Battery support.

I've had a version of the kernel running on my phone for the last 16hrs or so.

So more good news:

Battery charged to 100% just fine under Android

Current / Voltage readings are consistent with Windows Mobile

I'm currently draining the thing as fast as I can (GPS on, Music going full volume off SD, Data on, Flashlight Auto Flash at full brightness, screen full brightness) to see how accurate the battery estimates are (or aren't). Drain has cracked 650mA!! :p

The bad news:

Even if this works then if you reboot via WM the calibration will, most likely, be completely thrown out and you'll have to charge to full again in Android to get it back.

Temperature readings aren't quite as accurate as I'd hope but then I haven't checked they are all that accurate with the original battery either so that may just be a fault in the new driver.

If all goes well with the drain test I may post a test version of the kernel later today.

Extended battery - done all I can for now

Well folks I can't spare any more time to work on this. Sadly I am unlikely to get much time between now and next year as we're entering the "silly season".

If you want to try an "Alpha" release (what I've been testing on my phone) it's available here:

http://www.multiupload.com/PZXPZ10A2G

This is VERY MUCH USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

You MUST charge to 100% (preferably with Current Widget showing 0mA) in Android first, and you need to repeat this if you ever remove/replace the battery.

Known issues:

Values do not match Windows Mobile

In fact they may be quite inaccurate

Rebooting via Windows Mobile may not be possible without a short timeout (it will think battery is 0%)

Temperature is only accurate to the same error margin my old driver changes had.

So all that said, why would you want to test this?

Well if you have an extended battery and you ever want to move to NAND you're going to need something based on the new battery driver, so buggy or not, this may be as good as you'll get unless someone who can follow this code better than me gets involved and fixes it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] :
Hastarin,

Did you see my post before about the led notify light?

Sometimes it gets stuck on green with a new email.

Using Darkstones froyostone 3.2 with sense. He recommends your kernels. Yet MDJ kernel the light works correctly. Your kernel is better battery and connection though.

Really wanna use yours, just like the light to work right.
