Okay...now I can't use Wi-Fi on the included 8.5.3 kernel...:(

I use Wi-Fi a lot on Android, so I'll either downgrade to the kernel I used with SkinnyEVO 1.7 (r7.7) or I'll go back to r8.6, despite the lack of camera support.:confused:

EDIT: Does anyone know and have whichever hastarin kernel works (Wi-Fi, camera, etc.) with the latest SkinnyEVO release? I'm going out of town tomorrow, and I just realized I need both Wi-Fi and camera on Android. The hastarin r7.7 kernel works, but the battery drain is 57mah in standby (on S-EVO v1.7, it was usually at 3mah)!

EDIT2: Nvm. I found out that developer tytung built a hastarin r8.6_old_cam kernel. Wi-Fi works, camera works, battery life is back to normal!:)

All you have to do to use this r8.6_oldcam kernel is what I did:

1. download it and extract it.

2. Open zImageStorage

3. Open hastarin....by_tytung

4. Copy the zImage and paste it into your Android folder.

5. Copy the lights.htcleo.so file and paste it into your Android > root > system > lib > hw folder (replace the lights file that's in there). *(You will only see the "root" folder if you already upgraded/downgraded your kernel.)

6. Copy the rest of the .so files and paste them into your Android > root > system > lib > modules folder (replace the files that are in there).

**I was using the standard r8.6 kernel when I upgraded the files to the r8.6_oldcam kernel, just to make sure no r8.5 files would interfere. You might want to do the same!**

I hope this helps the others who want to use r8.6 with this build!:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] kupz:
ah sweet well found - I think I will stick with this kernel for now and see how long the battery lasts as everything else on it is perfect (including wifi) and I dont want to mess it up... Let us know how that works out.

I find that the standby drain is very good (5-7mA with wifi connected) but the drain shoots up on usage going e.g. up to 450mA when playing a simple game like sliceIt - also heats up a lot on the back after a while.

Is this a lot or is this pretty normal accross builds? This is my first shot at andriod so I have nothing to compare it to. At this rate on a normal day the battery will last but I'd always be worried about using any of the features of the phone too long.

hi,

i experienced the same problem than few others.

I've a reboot loop on startup.

my micro sd is a dane-elec SDHC one of 8GB.

here is what I made :

-format sd under winmo

-copy simple 2.1 version on sd under winmo

-clrcad

-haret

is there anyone who have a solution ?

thank you.
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
Try reformatting on a PC/Linux system, not WinMo
[HD2 Android SD Development] yangranger87:

[HD2 Android SD Development] jackielo:
I need a mirror site to download 2.1.1. Can somebody help me? Tks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dealkk:
after more monitoring, it not the bluetooth. My work place have very low signal strength and i think this is the reason. When it lost signal, it go into airplane mode and unable to go back to normal mode even if you manually try. Have to restart android. I am guessing i am the only one have this issue.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dddrko:
Thank you for the update
[HD2 Android SD Development] silvscorp:
thanks for the update.

One thing with the camera, the new driver is working and shutter sound can now be disabled via setting. However, after taking a picture, instead of normal icons "delete, share, etc" it now has 2 funny looking icons one is delete and the other one just return to camera. Is there a way to make it same as before?
[HD2 Android SD Development] ElephantStone82:

Mediafire mirror: phiremod 2.1.1 update
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
What method did you use to change the dpi?
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
This is why I haven't updated it in the past, because I didn't like the 'layout'

However, I've noticed it seems to work faster and take better pictures than the old camera.

At least for this particular update, it would be easy to revert back to the old cam.. just delete the 2.1.1 update folder ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] ElephantStone82:
Root explorer and changed in text editer! tried sdcard/root/buildprop and system/buildprop! no joy
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
Upgrade to 2.1.1. Should solve the bootloop problem.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ElephantStone82:
tried! still no joy!
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
Unsure what you tampered with then. All I can suggest is a fresh start.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ElephantStone82:
how did you do it mate what did u change
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
I've never changed dpi
[HD2 Android SD Development] silvscorp:
Thanks for the quick response.

Yes, I do noticed better picture taking with the new driver. However, I tried couple MDJ and MCCM builds before with new camera driver and they all have normal icons.

So with your builds we'll have to live with these icons for new camera drivers?

thanks again,

After Applying 2.1.1. Update, SetCPU now Shows 1.5 GHz as the Top Frequency, So Does Updating the Kernel from 8.5.3 to 8.6 has this Feature?

Quadrant scores are now bumped to 1800+ from the previous 1450.

Any thoughts?

Plus, has anyone noticed that after using the camera, and when clicking the side buttons on the right hand side, (Which indeed has corrupted Graphics) that other widgets on Home looks funny, until a restart?

Last thing, the camera Photos are indeed better, but its SLOWER to focus, with some Lags.

BOOTLOOPS

great build but i am facing a problem that i wish someone can help me solve, i tried updating " libskia.so " from a different build that supports my native language but now i am facing BOOTLOOPS, does anyone have a solution for the bootloops ?

thank you
[HD2 Android SD Development] gprash:
No sim card found ?

This is a great build. Best by far amongst the ones I have tried. But there is one problem I have not been able to solve. I tried searching for a solution in this thread but I could not find any.

When I boot into android it gives me a error saying no sim card found. The only way I can get around this is restart again until it clears off by itself. And once while trying to change apn settings it ended up going back to airplane mode complaining abt my sim card not there.

Not a deal breaker but I would like to atleast know what is causing this. Otherwise its a great build. Love it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance !

I m using Dutty's V11 ROM and 2.15 radio.

Hi,

Does anyone have the problem that you can configure 2g only but this setting will be ignored totally so you still get 3g. I'd like to set it to 2g to save battery.
[HD2 Android SD Development] strictlypc:
Yes, you can overwrite the old file or use root explorer to copy the new file to the path root/system/app

I am going to upgrade on 2.1.1 but I am facing a very teasing issue

After setting up all widgets on home screens, I went to the scenes and saved my unsaved scene currently on. After saving I just switched to another scene and I can't see any widgets on scene, furthermore when I tried to go back to my saved scene, all screens are empty. Do I need to save all widgets again... :( What's wrong can someone guide me?

Gingerbread Theme Final Release when?

Is there a way to get the linked Gingerbread Theme without the

keyboard issue (I mean some characters seems to be Cyrillic, even if I take English as Language...

Or a workaround for the current beta release attached for this very interesting SkinnyEvo v2.1.1... Nice and appreciated job, many thanks for your gifts ;-)

Hopefully I Read you soon.
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
SkinnyEvo has been updated to the Final Edition. Thanks to everyone for your support. I worked hard on this and hope you enjoy it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Black Box:
Thanks for all the hard work. Out of curiosity, why are you not making any more roms?
[HD2 Android SD Development] mb:
Me too - why stop?

Typical, I find a Android build that's ultra-reliable and the developer gives up.

Shame. Thanks for all your hard work. I hope you change your mind.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Winmen:
thanks for all !! and the perfect build !!! but i have 1 error ... wifi !!! no connection why ??
[HD2 Android SD Development] patensas:
it's a shame to see another great dev leave ( or at least stop developing ) the scene. Thanks for all you hard work leaving us just hoping you'll return ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] gprash:
Best build I have tried so far ... everything is perfect .. .sad to see you leave though ... hope u ll change ur mind and come back soon ... Thanks !!
[HD2 Android SD Development] ASCIIker:
got my hd2 in may 2010, flashed NRGZ's energy WM6.5.3 ROM in june 2010. used it 24/7 until i jumped ship to android with pongster's wonderful hyperdroid in september 2010. come to think of it, i am actually STILL using the said energy ROM the 0.1% of the time that i am forced to reboot into WM.

then pongster left the scene. come november 2010, i found phiredrop's skinny EVO (it was v1.5 i think)...

still using that BEAST of a build 24/7 to THIS DAY! wasn't even bothered to try out the following v1.7 and the v2.x series...your work is really THAT good...very professional and cooked with care.

for the past 2 weeks, i've been searching for a dependable and trouble free stock-like Sense HD build but haven't found ANYTHING as smooth and reliable and dependable like the experience i get with the skinny EVO series. for what its worth, i got furthest with phiredrop's Sense HD build, ACE, while MDJ's and even cedesmith's Sense HD builds were giving me tons more trouble :D.

still, every morning, i found myself having to pop in my sd card containing skinny EVO after unsuccessfully dabbling with some Sense HD build the night before.

you will be missed a lot, sure hope you return to the hd2 android build scene again, and i wanted to say a proper thank you instead of the "lazy" thanks button :D

Final Edition Update:

My friend, Congrat 4 your new great work!!!

Just a question about installation:

If I have got your last version (2.2.1) and don't want to lose any setting and/or data, according to you is it better to:

a) format the SD card, place on it Android and GScripts folders and then copying previous data.img file into the new Android folder

or:

b) erase just the old Andoid folder, copying the new one on the SD card and then the previous data.img file into the new Android folder???

Any suggestion???
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
Thank you all for the kind words, you all are awesome!

I traded my HD2 today for a Vibrant, hence the final ROM. I wanted to get one last release out there before I made the trade, so I accomplished my goal for the day.

Thanks again.
[HD2 Android SD Development] DAP420:
anybody else having problems with titanium bu not restoring everything.
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
You should be able to keep your data.img
[HD2 Android SD Development] paocavallo:
sure!

thanks for your very very fast answer, but I would know if according to you is it better to format before every data on the SD cardo or just erase the Android folder (so I can keep apps folders and root data too...)
[HD2 Android SD Development] te.ttt.ss:
thanks "_"
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
Yes, I would backup your current data.img, format the SD card, copy the final version over (minus the provided data.img) and then copy your saved data.img

Should work, but no guarantees. Titanium backup is also a good tool for restoring apps.
[HD2 Android SD Development] loaferkan:
Dude, what is the Gscrpit folder for, when I downloaded the Phiremod final? what do I do with that folder? should I just dump it in the root of the SD, or should I pick the files from it and dump it in the Android folder? ANYONE?:confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
Please read all of the installation instructions in the original post. I wrote them for this reason.
[HD2 Android SD Development] loaferkan:
thank you so much BIG BOSS........just a quick question, how do I show a % in the battery icon?:confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] phiredrop:
You would have to change the framework to do that, or perhaps get an app or metamorph that does it (don't know of any, however).
[HD2 Android SD Development] taino887:

I am using the OZ Droid build on winmo and the new 2.14.50.04 radio. I can confirm that i have been getting somewhat steady data, but I don't know if some fluctuations have to do with my rom and radio as well. Also I got an MMS message earlier today, but it also looked like I missed one. Sometimes with the new kernel the touch screen is a little unresponsive and I have to hit the green call button in order to make it respond, but thats the only little issue i've found.
[HD2 Android SD Development] tmobley:

[HD2 Android SD Development] jdm_cars:
Good build, loving the cleaner look, 3G works great, although, had some issues setting up my APN with MMSC info.

It appears, that if you create a New APN, save it, then try to go back in there to modify it, it crashes.

Force close then loses connection with the SIM card, and APN settings get erased. (same thing happened to me with Mattc Evo sense 1.01.)

If I enter everything in 1 shot save it worked.

would rather have the standard HTC boot logo, but the rest of it is working great, mms is working for me.

Loving the cleaner look without the theme.
[HD2 Android SD Development] nobnut:
Don't worry, we forgive you.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Mafioso:
Thanks for all the hard work...It was the phiremod build initially which got me hooked to Android...somehow the other early builds like hyperdroid or mattC or even the mdj initial builds, didn't work out very well for me...But it was through you're build only I started liking Android on HD2...sad to see you're leaving the scene, was looking forward to a gingerbread ROM from you, hope you change you're mind :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] ndn715:
sad to see you go phire! but we must all move on so many thanks for all your hard work and contributions to the community, you've cooked some amazing roms.

i did want to ask about the MilkFroyo animations from the last release... my level of modifying droid roms is certainly not up to my abilities for winmo roms, but i can probably figure it out... found a few links/posts on how to edit animations.

where did you find the rotate animation from Milk? the two best transitions i have seen is the fade from Sense HD builds and this one. if set to fast from spare parts, its very unobtrusive for the eye candy provided. is it possible to grab this animation from another source? if not, i'll learn a bit more about android and try to pull it from your other release :)

best of luck with your future endeavors
[HD2 Android SD Development] hyellow:
such a shame this wil be your final version. I've been using this as my daily Os now, and it is quietly stable. I hope you'll keep the HD2 and reconsider rom cooking again someday, a honeycomb or something ;-).

ps:

if one day the 720p videcapture is fixed, could you release a patch or an updated version? Then your hard work is really done.

Thnx
