Flash 10.1 will sometimes auto exit after few minutes playing.

For the successful clips, not to say the resolution is no good, it is also not in full color and there is a patch of purple color overlay moving around.

I wonder if this is normal for flash 10.1 on android now?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jagr:
i have this same problem, my solution was to use a data toggle widget. turn off the data whenever i don't need it.

but somehow last night halfway through the night it started using 250ma and the phone was dead by morning.

My network was all automatic, I cant even get into the settings menu. It just sits and times out. . . . Word. . . . .

The strange ass battery BS continues. . . . It is the data connectivity, I was using Google Maps, closed the app and the mA drain was still insane after I put the phone to sleep. Restarted the POS and all was back to normal. . . .

There is no way to call Android 100% on the HD for me still. . . But, geez it runs so good when it wants to.

I'm not trying to sound like a smart ass but I've searched the forum and can't find a damn thing about applying a theme to a build on the HTC HD2. I found things about applying a theme to a regular android rom on phones like the EVO and the HTC Hero but nothing about applying one on the HTC HD2. Why don't you tell us how to go about it and we could properly do all the leg work of placing things in folders and stuff like that.

[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
Maybe try to replace /system/lib/libaudio.so

Or replace libaudio.so and libhardware_legacy.so

To my knowledge, libhardware_legacy.so should not affect bluetooth, but you can try.

Edit: It not works. So I remove the file.
[HD2 Android SD Development] JoonatanO:
Great ROM, I love stock Android.

Didn't quite pull off the same Quad score, but benchmarks aren't everything :P

Like you said, I encountered touch-screen freezes, but disabled auto-rotate and now everything is fine. SetCPU also force closed at first, but a reboot fixed it. Great selection of wallpapers!

Here are some improvements I can think of:

-Remove TaskKiller from the AndroidApps folder because of this.

-A "reboot" option when holding down the power button.

-Option to toggle mobile data (3G/EDGE) on and off in the settings widget.

Basically I miss certain aspects of CyanogenMod
[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
I think applying a theme to a build on the HTC HD2 is similar to applying a theme to a regular android rom on phones.

Here're three simple examples.

FRG83_blackbar_add-on_H_icon_and_battery%_icon.zip

FRG83_stockbar_add-on_H_icon_and_battery%_icon.zip

FRG83_stockbar_add-on_H_icon_only.zip

If anyone would like to have a "H" (HSDPA) icon and battery % icon in a "black" status bar, please download the first one.

If anyone would like to have a "H" (HSDPA) icon and battery % icon in the original status bar, please download the second one.

If anyone would like to just have a "H" (HSDPA) icon in the original status bar, please download the third one.

After download, please put them in the sd card /Android/root/system/framework/framework-res.apk [services.jar] and then reboot.

You will have a new themes now.

Edit: forget to say that credit goes to Geo411m

0 Mah?

Anyone else using this build can verify? If so, I am jumping on that build!

[HD2 Android SD Development] kungfubass1961:
not sure if this may be the case but i wanted to test darkstones super ram froyo v.1.5 and loaded up fast seems nice but data did not work and was getting the robot vice on calls so i just went back to nexusHD2 v1.8 and started getting the robotic vice on calls also note this has never happen with the nexusHD2 v1.8 or any of the older builds, my thinking was since the darkstones super ram build uses the hd2 ram to run on it may have buged the system up, what i had to do to make the nexusHD2 work is i had to do a factory reset on the hd2 formate the sd card and reinstall the nexusHD2, but then i got the robot voice again with a test call to tmobile but then my son called me at the same time and the call was clear then afther that all calls were ok, not sure what had happen am not a developer so am not realy sure. note i did do a test call with the darkstones super ram build with tmobile and thats the only call i made.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
...and a charger connected :) The icon in the current widget is lit green, which means a charger is/was connected at the last update of the widget. Because the battery is 100% full, the current widget shows 0mA.

[HD2 Android SD Development] samson_420:
I get anywhere from 3mA to 70mA or so. . . . . I just check it. If it's over 20 mA in standby, I reset the phone.

This happens very randomly. . . So does the robot voice or random crashes. . . . Yet, this is still truly the best and most stable build I have used so far.

3G/GPRS settings Bouygues Telecom France

Got the 3G/GPRS internet working for Bouygues telecom France (pfff)

Like in previous posts you need to edit /system/build.prop

In order to do so, start Terminal Emulator, go in super user mode typing su

cd /system

start the vi editor:

vi build.prop

If it has been a long time for you too you used vi, more info on the command set here:

http://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html or

http://osr600doc.sco.com/en/FD_create/vi_summary.html

Go to around line 79 using the command :79

net.ppp0.dns1=62.201.129.99

net.ppp0.dns2=62.201.129.99

net.dns1=62.201.129.99

net.dns2=62.201.129.99

This will work for France but I think it is better to put this config in there if you want to use internet abroad:

net.ppp0.dns1=62.201.129.99

net.ppp0.dns2=8.8.8.8

net.dns1=62.201.129.99

net.dns2=8.8.8.8

Change the lines and save and exit the file with the :x command

Cheers

[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
Just upgraded to 8.6 oldcam (compiled by tytung). It works flawlessly. It feels even more responsive, boots slightly quicker. Can't say anything about drainage yet, but I have a feeling I won't have to worry about that.

Thanks for taking the time to compile this for us. It gives me the possibility to stick with my favorite build and use the latest kernel from Hastarin.

In regards to your post on Hastarin's thread about the maximum of 3mpx with the oldcam modules: I purchased Vignette this morning from Market, which lets me select 5mpx in settings. This was before I upgraded to 8.6. Could it be that the 3mpx is limitation of the Camera app on the Nexus One?

Sincerely,

Mac
[HD2 Android SD Development] mwebb76:
You've misunderstood. Oldcam allows 5MP on this build with the Nexus app. With the new cam drivers we only get 3MP out of the Nexus app.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
Ah, now I see I just misread it. Thanks for the clarification :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] fluidz:
Hi Tytung,

I installed your Rom this morning, after formatting the Sd card using Fat32, and following your instructions exactly as written in your post.

However when my phone ran out of battery I charged it throughout the night, the phone was off, and since turning it on today it no longer boots past the HTC Logo (android boot).. I've left it for hours now. 3 differerent boots, at least 45 mins each time.

It wouldnt be such a bother to Copy the Android folder over again, but I spent hours filling it with apps and themes and such alike. I want to know whether or not its going to do this over and over.

Please help.

From what I could see upon first boot its a great Rom otherwise.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
You can try this:

1. Backup your data.img in the Android folder (and startup.txt if you edited it)

2. Re-format your SD-card

3. Copy the Android folder back to your SD-card

4. Copy the backup of data.img back to your SD-card, into the Android folder

5. Boot

If that doesn't work, data.img is propably corrupted and it's likely best to start over again. I don't know of a way to repair a corrupted data.img.

Hope this helps you.

Sincerely,

Mac
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
Agree with this approach... Who knows what happened but even if you manage to get it back up, it will probably act weird... Just copy data.img file and start from the beginning.

Word to the wise, use the build a while before loading up your stuff... you can also use apps like AppBrain to back them up.
[HD2 Android SD Development] arkatis:
VERY FAST AND STABLE! I love it.. Everything works and the UI is stunning! I have also installed LauncherPro for more smoothness! Thanks!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
That's not necessarily true; I've had a full charge, then used something and have read anywhere from 223-700+. I have found the phone at 0 when unplugged and have also noticed that while charging it is higher.
[HD2 Android SD Development] kbluearmor7:
How was the drainage on when running hastrin 8.5 oldcam with moderate use (browsing/email sync/gaming) and standby alone?

Thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
3-7mA, without gaming (I don't game...). Battery lasting approx 14 hours, with UltimateJuice 15-16 hours.

Sincerely,

Mac
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
Well, the green lit icon shows that the charger was connected at last update. The reason it show a positive value while charging is because it shows the charging current. You can see the different charging currents when switching between usb connected charging and your wall charger. If it still showed 0mA when you disconnected, you probably have your update interval set to a bigger value.

I think we're getting somewhat off topic here (at least for this thread :D). If you want to discuss it further, you're welcome, send me a PM ;)

Sincerely,

Mac
[HD2 Android SD Development] p/t_rockstar:
well I think I have successfully eliminated my battery drainage woes

Back when I was on Windoze/Sense 3g I'd get around 14-18 hours of time after a full charge. Soon after I loaded Froyo it dropped drastically down to 8 hours tops, not to mention the occasional blank screen and data drop issues.

Spent about 15 minutes with a tech from Tmobile (service provider) who figured out the radio ROM (2.08) was 9 months too old and turns out I needed a new simcard. That can happen when you have the same number for 8 years running :D

So anyway I updated the radio to 3.14 (need to run MS Activesync first & the installer from Tmobile later) and popped in a new sim. The local store was told to give it to me for free and was nice to transfer the contacts as well.

I did have to delete the old Android files/directories off my memory card. And install Froyo again. But once up & running I am getting an easy 12 hours of run time. And got close to 5 mbps down from the Speedtest.net app too ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] p/t_rockstar:
p.s.

Thanks to the OP for including the battery indicator and HSPDA notification in the current build

i have the tmobile stock 3.14, and i reinstalled the nexusHD2 v1.8 and battery seems to be holding up good its been five hours got four calls since and battrey still at 94%
[HD2 Android SD Development] kbluearmor7:
Yes same here. With the help and advice from Mac, I changed some settings and have been getting 7-9mA on standby.

Played games and downloaded apps. Still at 95% for past 3 hours since full discharge!

Awesome build!
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
Maybe current widget hadnt refreshed yet and that's why it was showing 0mA... Doesnt make sense that you would have that with the phone unplugged...

Thats not the radio, that's probably the ROM...
[HD2 Android SD Development] Rick Chase:

[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
If you unzip the folders you might try to copy the zImage to the Android folder. You have to manually copy the modules (.ko) after first boot and change permissions according to the script supplied. I haven't tried it myself but I guess it should work, as that is the procedure for a normal upgrade.

I noticed that in 1.8, the home screen doesn't rotate when the phone is rotated, even though I have that box checked. How do I fix this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
Just install launcherPro...
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
I use Zeam, LauncherPro is a piece of crap. Zeam can rotate, it's not a LP feature.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
It is, actually. I don't agree with you on LauncherPro being a piece of crap, personally I like it very much. The default Froyo launcher apparently doesn't rotate, I just checked on my wife's HD2 (with the same build). I use LauncherPro which has a setting to enable rotate for the homescreen.

Sincerely,

Mac

EDIT: I just checked the ZEAM-thread and apparently, if you're using ZEAM, it doesn't automatically follow system rotate setting. From what I've read, you have to set up in ZEAM's settings... In that case, you just might asked in the wrong thread :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Well that's you. I like Zeam, it is MUCH faster, and less of a resource hog. But, again...Zeam can rotate the home screen.
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
its a question of choice... LauncherPro is solid for me and rotates...

Are you saying that Zeam doesnt rotate either?
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Zeam did on 1.7, doesn't on 1.8. Only apps rotate on 1.8.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:

Can anyone help please?

Davie
[HD2 Android SD Development] Macelangelo77:
Hi Davie and welcome to XDA,

Most commonly the robot voice is caused by the radio on your phone. Unfortunately you didn't supply any information to help us help you. Please check which ROM en radio you are using and try to flash a different radio. Most likely this will solve your problem. You will need a 2.xx.50.xx version for the radio, 2.08 at the least. If you search the forum for "robot voice" you'll find a lot of advice, however results with radio differ per country/region/provider.

Let us know how it works out for you.

Sincerely,

Mac
