Call sound quality

Love this build. No issues with data drops using 2.14.50 radio and OZDroid WM rom. But since switching to this build friends have been complaining about the sound quality on their end. Sound quality for me is great no problems at all. However the people on the other end are getting annoyed of hearing echoing. Is this a build specific problem? Is anyone else encountering this problem? Suggestions, anyone?
[HD2 Android SD Development] kdeguy:
i was loving this build when back home (i had trouble with 1.3 and 1.4, but 1.2 had worked mighty well for me). 1.5 has been absolutely stunning in all respects.

Now i am away on business for the last three days, had charged it ONCE, that too on the very first day. Granted i have data, 3g and wifi off, and only making occasional phone calls and sms, still after 2 days battery is down to 57%, with less than 1% per hour at nights. I, for one, am impressed.

I really think turning off 3g may have been the key, but with other builds i was still getting a large enough hit on the battery life even with 3g off. Thanks tytung for an amazing build.

Problem with voice quality

I have same problem. From version 1.4 people, who are calling me, have problem with echoing.

I tested 3 winmo roms and 3 radios and there is no difference.

I am now on stock rom 1.66.479.2 and radio 2.12.50.02_2. That is not good, because i can't use this release :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] juicecultus:
I'm running this build on top of OzDroid minimal 1.0 and radio 2.12. I believe in the motto: if it ain't broken don't fix it. Therefore I have not upgrade to 2.14 or 2.15 radios. It is perfect for me the way it is.

So, if any of ya wants a working config with no echoing of BSOD or whatever, I have posted my configuration with links for everything below:

Switched to 2.12.50.02 radio, still robo.

Edit:

I think every change (esp the ones made from winmo) requires two or more reboots for the Android. The robo voice is gone, the connection is back no drops. What it did was just downgrading from 2.14 to 2.12.. Oh the data drops sometimes but really rare and comes back after disabling-enabling data conns from settings.

This build

I really like this one its so smooth and everything works but sending mms i think its one of the best minus the one issue
[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
Original Mms.apk is located in the /system/app/Mms.apk.

So you can use root explorer to replace the original file. (Maybe backup first)

Or put the file Mms.apk in the folder ( /sdcard/root/system/app/ ) and then reboot to finish the replacement.

Edit:

The correct path is as below.

( /sdcard/Android/root/system/app )

With all respect to you and tytung for your help, I think it is best for me to try another build, more specifically m-deejay's evo build, as I am a beginner in this phone thing. I dont want to brick my phone.

Ill report what I find, but I would much rather use this build because I like stock android better. But any android is better than WinMo haha.

What I know is if you charge to 100% in WinMo and then reboot to Android, then charging in Android is working properly, I mean, it can reach 99% or 100%.

Tytung - first off, thanks for an amazing build. I'm running 1.5 as my everyday build with 2.14 radio and hastarin 7.7 kernel. I love having a clean froyo build. CM6 builds all have low volume, and I pocket answer with the sense builds because of the vertical slide-to-answer.

My one issue is battery life with GPS enabled. This seems to be specific to your build, and occurs with different radios and kernels. With GPS enabled, I get a minimum of 60 mA battery drain. Upon disabling GPS, the drain is immediately reduced to around 5 mA. Other builds don't have this problem for me. Any plans to fix this in future builds?

[HD2 Android SD Development] rhacy:
I've noticed the same high standby battery drain issue here (around 54 or so mAh), due to the GPS staying on. Many thanks in advance tytung for looking into it. In regard to other builds, I've had intermittent high battery drain issues on all Nexus and Sense builds for some reason. Sometimes standby drain will be around 5 mAh. Other times, the drain will run in the 50-60 mAh range. I'm guessing it has something to due with the GPS staying on as well. That said, if I'm using WiFi, I've noticed that if I shut down the GPS first, then WiFi, standby drain will stay around 5 mAh. Regardless, on the big plus side, v.15 has been my favorite Nexus or Sense build to date, due to its overall speed and stability, even when loaded with 100 apps, and running live wallpapers. Thanks so much again tytung. Cheers!

Please understand that tytung may not be allowed to include the actual GScript Lite app, due to restrictions from the developer. That said, he is kind enough to include the GScripts, so all you need to do is download GScript Lite from Android Market and run it.

Best to all,

[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
Well, including a free app, GScript Lite, should be OK.

I don't include it because those .sh files can be executed by using GScript Lite (Free), Terminal Emulator (Free) or Root Explorer (Paid app), etc..

I hope anyone can choose the app he or she prefers.

No UMTS AFTER WiFi usage

Hi tytung, this is a one of the best Android Builds for HD2 out there. Very fast, stable and snappy!

One problem that I have to report is (with Hastarin Kernel) AFTER using WiFi Connection I've be unable to make any kind of GPRS Connection (no UMTS or EDGE or anything else). I've try to use AIRplan Mode ON OFF but no succes.

If I make WiFi off and made a reboot, I'm getting a stable PPP connection until WiFi is powered on, after this no UMTS any more ...

Thank you once more, great Work!

Best ROM Yet

I have to say that I have tried a few Android builds to date and everyone I had tried had one issue or another, such as data drop outs, very poor battery consumption, crackling phone calls (but not what I would have called robo voice), I even had one which I could not boot.

I put this one on my HD2 2 days ago and I have to say this is the best yet. When I put it on I had no data, so I removed the battery and reloaded. After that I have had no issues whatsoever.

The camera works with flash, data has not dipped since the initial boot, calls have been clear and battery consumption has been so good, I had to boot into WinMo to check if Android was reporting it correctly! It lost about 1% in 2 hours standby today comparing with other roms which were losing 3 or 4%.

I also have to say, that I love the keyboard on Nexus roms, it seems much more accurate that the HTC keyboard, the only bugbear being that in 'Text Messaging' mode, the Return button becomes a :-) - whats that about?

So far its great, if it stays like this I wont be changing and this will be my daily use!

Cheers to the cook. Well done.

[HOW-TO] Increase the size of data.img for more "Device" storage

The Android will only create a data.img file of size is specified in startup.txt at first boot (if there's no data.img exists).

There're two methods to enlarge the data.img.

You can delete your data.img and then re-create a larger size of data.img by specifying data_size=1024 or more in startup.txt. (You will lose all your data.)

You can enlarge a data.img file by using linux command on Ubuntu. (All your data will be kept.)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=737826 (Please read (Running Linux) section)

E.g.: adding 256MB to original 512MB will give you a 768MB data.img

dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=256 >> data.img
e2fsck -f data.img
resize2fs data.img
e2fsck -f data.img

Another method to enlarge a data.img file.

i saw this from the other build threads and it helped to stop the echo and background noises. hope it works for you too;

Navigate yourself to your android build, via a file explorer such as Astro

edit - backup the file below first, before renaming or deleting. just to be in the safe side.

"/system/etc/firmware" you will see a file called "default.acdb" rename this file.. eg. "def.bak"

Reboot your Android, start testing.

i used the super manager app to delete the file, and then i rebooted and called someone. they confirmed that it worked. i also downloaded the new hastarin kernel r8, have to do some testing.
