haven't really tried out the light sensor, i'm always using the 2nd setting on the power bar

but about the build, the 3.6 + 7.3 is working awesome. no lag, led notifications work without any issues, data is a bit shakey and i miss the advanced power menu. also ever since i switched my radio to 2.15 my battery life is on a whole different level (11 hours, 40% drop with light to medium use)

try out the desire hd build by mdeejay, here's my method of easily switching between builds

1 - install sms backup by ritesh sahu and backup your messages (you can install his call log and apn backup if you want those backed up too)

2 - make a folder on your sd card, i named mine HD

3 - copy the contents of the android folder in there and edit the startup.txt file so the rel_path=folder you created; put mdeejays data file in there too so it loads into android faster (don't try to reuse your current data file because it will get messed up)

4 - launch android from that folder, sync your email/contacts, install the smsbackup/call log/apns and you should be able to make the transition easier

also, i'm not 100% sure but i think the desire hd build will sync your market downloaded apps and will automaticaly download them
[HD2 Android SD Development] THUDUK:
just tested 7.3 and the camera flash premature is back

7.2 was OK, what has happened:confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] xivius:
great kernel update, thanks!
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
7.2 was not OK. All EVO based kernels have premature flash. Try taking a photo in a dark room with 7.x and you'll get a black photo.

The Nexus based kernels have a working flash, but various other things don't work in them.

Try reading the included README.txt for a start!
[HD2 Android SD Development] motoman234:
7.2 had premature flash for me. This is just one flaw. Things are sure headed in the right direction though. This kernel is a good example of that.
[HD2 Android SD Development] marzinho:
Hmmm, the light sensor doesn't work like it should - ie in full sun brightness should be at max.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mattfmartin:
I just got done testing Michyprima's R2. Data drop like crazy. How is Hastarins new one on data?
[HD2 Android SD Development] john_matrix:
Thank you hastarin for this new kernel build.
[HD2 Android SD Development] motoman234:
Holy Sh##! I just checked on speedtest so I could let you know and I have never got anything near this before in my area. This kernel is awesome!
[HD2 Android SD Development] @itsboiboi:
nice one hastarin! will try this out! thank u!
[HD2 Android SD Development] memin1857:
I think that happens because although the max range for light sensor is 10240 lux under android, the sensor data never comes above 2600 lux under sun.

Light sensor now updates its data in less than 1 second as compared to 4 seconds earlier.

Note: I have seen quite number of hd2s with defective light sensor which report extreme low value after a certain light treshold is exceeded. Those defective light sensor report no more than 640lux under Android and can't go above 700 lumens (they fall back to two digit value after that) under winmo.

For winmo: mtoolbox app

For android: phone tester app

You can test by putting phone 1 cm near to a normal room power light bulb instead of sunlight. (If you can't go out)

UPDATE: 15 OCT KERNEL fixes the non 10240lux issue.

Ηastarin i want to thank you for your work and especially for pointing me how to build my kernel.Now i can have different wifi mac address in my hd2 so no more wifi conflicts :cool:

To hastarin: What is with the scrolling effect on your past few latest kernels?

After V4.1, scrolling sucks!

i've check everything too, including setcpu, ur profiles, etc.

It's smooth, but it feels like i have to move a rock to get it to begin scrolling.

Its perfect aside from this HUGE PROBLEM!
[HD2 Android SD Development] anush.isaac:
Yes I too saw Scrolling issues with 7.2 so I went back to 4.1.. Its not a serious issue, but after seeing it sooo smooth in 4.1 its a real drag in 7.2.. Waiting to upgrade to 7.3 but saw the premature flash fix so I will wait a lil longer.. Hi Hastarin your Kernels are awesome but we see this scrolling lag in the last few builds, not checked in 7.3 will let you know as soon as test that..

Hats off though!!! Keep up the great work
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Yeah I had the same thing and had it get BRIGHT when it didn't need to. Building r7.4 atm, will have to see if the calibration changes in that help it.

I think I'll likely revert to manual control myself.

I have no idea. Plenty of people have mentioned it but, as usual, I don't have the problem! Either I'm lucky or it's a build/ROM/SD card issue when combined with some change in the kernel.
[HD2 Android SD Development] pack21:
Its my first post in this thread, but i must do it, to say Hastarin i really apreciate his work, because i use his kernels in my mdeejay DesireHD build.

Thanks Sir Hastarin.:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] tinuz97:
I have no scroll lag either.....i am 75% sure it is a sd card problem,not 100% sure lol.

To the one that have this lag,try reformat the sd card with the panasonic format tool,do a full format with ERASE on.

And do a CLEAN install,do not import things from a old rom,and do NOT use titanium backup or a other backup program.

After that you can format it fast with windows 7 or something with 64k cluster size (in the options of the w7 format)

Also try atleast a class 4 card,but better is a class 6......also classes aint saying much,it is the brand u use,i have 3 class 6 cards here: Adata,kingston,sandisk....all 8gb.....the sandisk is the fastest one in my benchmark program.

Also make sure u do not run manny programs in the background,use something like autokiller memory from the market,and set it to aggresive.....or experiment with a higher setting,i prefer autokiller over a taskkiller,because the autokiller is build for the memory managment system because android this already has,much tests that i read say that this is better,also a person who is working (a woman) at google says this,a pitty a cannot find the article again :(

[HD2 Android SD Development] tids2k:
goin' to test ... wait !
[HD2 Android SD Development] Programme:
Thanks! I just tried it with mattc's EvoLeo 1.01 and the flash and light sensor work perfectly as advertised!
[HD2 Android SD Development] rizky_p:
Update: just found out light sensor works :)

what is this file do "lights.htcleo.so"? it is for light sensing?

never get this to work despite modifying it to lights.gsd8k.so (mdeejay froyo sense 3.0) according to build.prop.
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
No it's for the notification LEDs and hardware key lights.

Works for me after renaming with the build I'm using (Darkstone something, see my sig).
[HD2 Android SD Development] marzinho:
Yup, that is true, i can't go over 2600 lx when i go outside.

So -light sensor is still not working properly. I'll have to wait for post-15OCT update, right?
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
The latest kernel (and my 7.4) has changes to the calibration levels for the sensor, so it MIGHT behave differently. I can't say I've spend a lot of time trying to follow what they've done.

It seems to work "ok" with limited testing between a dark room and being under a bright light bulb though.
[HD2 Android SD Development] sxypapi:
hastarin ..

thanks, you work fast and this new kernel is awesome ,thanks :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] SkywalkerPD:
Thnx for all the hard work on this kernel!
[HD2 Android SD Development] TruePlaya:
I don't think it is related to SDcard. Depends on kernel only. Maybe there is an issue with sensitivity settings?
[HD2 Android SD Development] vua777:
so evo kernel is near perfect now with music lag

thanks hastarin
[HD2 Android SD Development] tinuz97:
No music lag here with this kernel and mdeejay desire hd build 3.6.....quadrant score 1859 and linpack score 38.615........
[HD2 Android SD Development] memin1857:
hastarin 7.4 includes the 15 oct update :) You don't have to wait.

now your sensor will go to 10240 AND work much better.

new 7.4 also helps with bootup speed and mp3 music stutters.
[HD2 Android SD Development] paalkr:
Finally, a PERFECT kernel. Thanks for all the hard work!

I will never revert back to winmo 6.5.x now, can't really see the need :)

[HD2 Android SD Development] omershahab:
Just updated to 7.4 with mdeejay's Froyo HD 3.6, I get music stuttering for about the first 20-30 seconds then it plays more smoothly.
[HD2 Android SD Development] darkstar516:
Yeah, Ive noticed this as well, I was on r3, updated to r7.4 just now and the scrolling is massively different, it takes quite a few attempts at time to get it to scroll how much I want it to.

If you could look into this, it would be appreciated, thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] yongck7:
Can you share how u upgrade to v7.4?

1) replace the zImage only?

or 2) replace zImage and haret.exe

or 3) replace zImage, bcm4329.ko and tun.ko
[HD2 Android SD Development] mastajest:
Did I understand this right?

"Flash fix"

Does that mean no more premature flash on the camera?
[HD2 Android SD Development] dlsniper:
Better replace zImage and *.ko files

Yes, thanks to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=809268 we now have proper camera flash for EVO based kernels.
[HD2 Android SD Development] RJackson:
I stuck the backlight onto automatic and went through 3 battery-out-reboots before I figured out what the problem was: My light sensor returns a very low value in standard room lighting - and on "auto" it turns the backlight completely off.

Any advice welcome, phone details in sig.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jimhaddon:
Just upgraded to R7.4. I'm having the same issue - setting backlight to auto simply turns the backlight off.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jeremyhartz:
Ditto here... wish i would have read this post 3 minutes ago... LOL

Anyways, any method of undoing this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
I can't see what builds folks are using via XDA App but...

The light sensor changes probably aren't compatible with CM6 based builds.

[HD2 Android SD Development] dlsniper:
I"ve just tested 7.4 Alternative with the settings in my signature in a dark room and everything works as intended with backlight on auto. Maybe the builds you are using are not good for the EVO kernel, from my understanding CM6 isn't supported very well. Or maybe the build you are using doesn't have the right libs for the sensor...

Also, I don't get any music lag/shuttering or such nor do I have any scroll lag since 7.1 with the Alternative (no OC/UV/AXI version). Maybe AXI is involved in the shuttering?

For the power consumption, just boot haret with the lights on the keypad active, I've made shortcuts in sense home screen for clrcad and haret and that's all, don't be lazy.

Also I don't have any issues with the latest builds having battery drain too big, since with the extended battery I can keep the phone with wifi, gps, autosync, autobacklight and mobile connection alive for at least 24h. I don't use setcpu or current widget.

From time to time I boot back into windows, load the battery up then delete a file from android, batterystat.bin or similar, and when rebooting to android it's fine. And no, I don't complain about it since it's a Windows phone that's running Android, if I didn't wanted this I would have bought a Android phone directly.

My tip: just read the forums and the irc logs as much as possible and try and filter out from that the tips that apply to each of you. I've personally tried many builds/combinations before getting this and I'm using it as primary OS since 2-3 weeks for now (used FroyoSense 2.4 before 2.4.2)
[HD2 Android SD Development] mattfmartin:
How come no one is working on nexus kernels? Not complaining, just that evo based kernels don't play nice with cm6 builds.
[HD2 Android SD Development] JanssoN:
The 7.4 is the best kernel I've ever tried. I have no issues with my data connection and the WiFi, the standby drain is about 4mA (with GPS, data connection enabled) and the notifications + the light sensors work.

Great work! :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] dlsniper:
Because the devs are working on NAND right now and they've choose EVO kernel for it I guess. Search on irc logs for details, maybe you'll find them there. I also think that EVO kernels are move evolved that the N1 ones.
[HD2 Android SD Development] omershahab:
Wi-fi works fine for me with this kernel except when I tried to connect to a hidden unsecured network that I have to manually enter the network name. It keeps trying to connect but never does.

Anyone having this issue?

[HD2 Android SD Development] mattfmartin:
Good job Hastarin, I tried michyprima r2 before I tried this one, and it was very unstable. So I decided to try your new one out. Glad I did.The only thing I noticed was both kernels had scroll lag. Why is this? Besides that is very good.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dlsniper:
Try the non-AXI version. Or change your governor from SetCPU. No scroll lag here.

[HD2 Android SD Development] memin1857:
Auto backlight screen turn off fix test

Those with turned off backlights (in auto) try getting your phone 1cm near a light bulb and disable auto backlight as the screen turns back on. Then use the built in cm6 cyanogen mod settings auto backlight tweaks (light sensor levels) to not let the backlight go lower than 10 percent when under 40 lux (very low light)

Set the lower 0 upper to 41 and screen to 30 (or any value that does not turn off the backlight completely) buttons to 255

Provide feedback please.

Note: There is also alternative way to turn the screen back on by editing /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness content to 255 with droidexplorer

OR

adb shell "echo 255 >/sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness"

If 255 doesn't work try 90.

if you know adb
[HD2 Android SD Development] jmmmmm:
When your backlight goes out during an autobacklight test try calling your phone. It should go to full brightness.

"could it be caused by this http://gitorious.org/linux-on-wince-...b8b1865da3b92a ?

it's the commit that made ts work on nand

try reverting that commit and compiling the kernel then, maybe it will restore its responsiveness"

Camera flash is great, lights working ok but WiFis gone dead on me. It shows that its connected with excellent signal and 54Mps however I can`t get any data to anything. No browser, market place or mail. I`ve rebooted tried airplane mode, used the root files, tried installing via terminal editor . Mobile network is fine. I thought of not using the enclosed bcm4329 and tun modules, but that shows an error.

Any other thoughts?

[HD2 Android SD Development] jae-v:
How are you guys updating your modules on these new sense builds?
[HD2 Android SD Development] famewolf:
Follow this and it will take care of the modules for you in the process:

Easy install:

Mount the phone as a disc drive for copying files.

Optionally zip up your Android dir on SD card to a file on pc for backup.

unzip the hastarin zip to your PC

delete the DEV folder and README.TXT in the dir where you extracted hastarin.

copy everything else in the hastarin folder (zimage, root, haret ETC) to the Android folder on SD card. If prompted, overwrite existing.

If in Android, reboot phone, go to winmo, boot Android...if already in winmo just boot Android (you can enter disc drive mode from either)

Well no it's a different fake address. I think they plan to read it from NAND eventually, but sadly it's not working yet.

I've no idea how to change it apart from hard coding it in the kernel sorry.

You're welcome. I've released r7.5 which incorporates this change now, so an "Alternative" build is also available for those that find they can't use the Overclocked/Undervolted/AXI build.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Reignzone:
I don't mean to "undermind" your progress here, but is R5 considered more of a "downgrade" as opposed to an upgrade?

I'm just curious, because after reading the change log, then watching those videos in regards to the link you provided with it... I'm wondering if it's considering an "improvement" or better than the previous release?
