Just so you realise this is the Android DEVELOPMENT forum, so someone will be bound to shoot you down for posting in here, however I'm not a man to hold a grudge.

I'm using:

Chucky Tabtastic WM Rom

Radio 2.12.50_2

Android is atm FroyoStone Sense V2.2 although I will be upgrading that to V3.1 later today. I've had absolutely no problems with 2.2, no sleeps of death, no fast music, no gps or camera problems. The only minor grumble (and it is very minor) is slightly soft earpiece volume in calls.

If you are experiencing slow first boots that is to be expected. It has to create data storage on the first boot and ALWAYS takes a long time. You are not the only person to experience slowness out of sleep, search and you will find several dozen people having the same problems and various workarounds.

I've been using SuperHD2 (clean stock version) for a long time now, I removed the sensor files due to the touchscreen freezes driving me mad and it's been incredibly stable with decent battery life too.

Later on today I'll be test-driving the latest FroyoStone.

I use chucky light and hyperdroid1.6 been playing with the new sense build too however once you go cyanogen not much compares. whatever you choose disable the gsensor to avoid freezing, you can toggle it using stock power widget. good luck!

Well this thread will be closed pretty soon..!!!

Anyways I guess you should try all the builds & find which suits you the best..!!!

According to no of users, looks, stability etc

1 of the best combinations for now

VBN+HyperDroid

But still, spend sometime & try the 1 that suits you the best..!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] omarcflrr:
I tried many combos, and the best one that has given me no issues and the best battery Life, dare I say better battery life than WinMo is, Stock WinMo Rom 2.10.XX with 2.12 Radio and Android 2.2 Build FRG33 mccm v1.5. This combo is kicking butt on my HD2!

Hai..

My First Post :)

I bought a nexus one from my friend.. It was rooted(boot loader unlocked).. Lately new update for android 2.2.1 was pushed and it failed at verifying signature..

I kinda like OTA update. Is there anyway i could go back to some firmware where i could get OTA.. If that's possible could anyone guide me through..

1) I flashed the firmware to 2.1(stock as said in the site) and tried to update to 2.2 then the update failed at assertion error :confused:

2) then i flashed to 2.2 stock(non rooted).. Then i got this verification error..:(

I flashed it using the easy methord downloading the zip to sd card->Recover->zip from sd card..

I'm a complete noob when it comes to Android on the HD2. I just spent a couple hours following the detailed tutorials here on how to get Android up and running on my phone. It's finally there, I got rid of the robot voice, and everything's working smoothly.

I'm running FroyoStone, and the only language pack closest to English US that it has is English UK. I installed MoreLocale 2 and got English US.

Now the only problem I have is that the weather still shows up in degrees Celsius. Is there any way to change it to Fahrenheit?

Bootup animation on JI5

I just hate the Tmobile pink stuff 'Stick together'...JUK!

So, I tried the get the original I9000 bootsamsung.qmg & bootsamsungloop.qmg into system/media.

Startup just ignores it, screen is just blank.

The customized sound play during startup, but no video.

Any ideas?
[Vibrant General] krylon360:
you need to modify the playlogos script to look for those files
[Vibrant General] bert269:
found the solution.....thanks

Thanks, but I doubt if I need to change anything. The filenames are exactly the same.

I found this link, It's a flashable .zip for exactly what I was looking to do. I was concerned to flash this and if problems appears later, how to get rid of it.

So I copied the two .qmg files out and placed it in /system/media and it works.

It's very strange, the file-sizes were even exactly the same as those that I used before, the only difference is, this time it worked.....

So, thanks for your help.
[Vibrant General] krylon360:
strange, maybe the files just got corrupted during the transfer. who knows. Glad it works though for you. =)

Question i didnt root my phone or anything , so i didnt do a back up or anything what you think will happen when t-mo "releses" the update will i get it? and if not how can i go back to stock fimeware thanks in advance
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
Any one notices the changes in the music player.

It has cleaner look to it and you swipe up to show extra functions

swipe down to hide

You can also access music player from lock screen now.

You swipe down to show player, up to hide it

And disk view swiping seems little smoother

but disk view no longer opens by tilting your phone you have to manually set it :(

And bluetooth stereo with volume all the way up it seems louder than before

Pinch to zoom on photos works on stock.. just saying.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
I've been worrying about this myself cause I'm not rooted either. It would be a total pain to root just to go back to stock so I can get an OTA. I'm going to assume when the actual update that gets rolled out OTA is not going to be called JI5 so we SHOULD still get it. This is just a guess since all the past ota builds have had different numbers...

I really dislike the lockscreen though and the fact that 5.1 is broke when watching vids.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
accessing the music player from the lock screen was already there. It doesn't look any different to me though.

Not everyone is interested in flashing leaked beta ROMS

BTW Ive had my phone for 3 weeks I dont install every thing that gets released just to be cool

I do stock and other Developers ROMS/Kernels if they interest me. I dont do beta **** unless its video drivers for my PC

And dont go saying JI5 beta because it came directly from Samsung threw kies

and not to mention it actually runs great

[Vibrant General] andy696:
I take it you have flashed both JI2 and JI5.

Would it not be a little more helpful if you could list anything that is different between JI2/JI5 and stock instead of just saying JI2 and JI5 are the same?

You say JI2 and JI5 are the same but we all know they can not be, do you notice anything that is different? Slightly less lag, better modem etc?

As JI5 was released through kies I am guessing it is pretty close to what T-mo will release, I missed the JI5 kies boat and do not have the time to flash multiple roms to compare, so I would appreciate it if you could share your gained knowledge.

You're using headphones, right? 5.1 surround is only meant for use with headphones and it's not true 5.1. It's simulated.

This new battery full notification suuuucks.

Now instead of beeping and having a pop up message possibly waking you up in middle of night, and screen stays in standby.

We now have a notification on the top bar, which is OK but now the screen comes out of standby and chimes to notify that battery is full.

But now it doesn't go back into stand by. Just stays on... great now when im sleeping ill have a night lite.

Freak n Samsung instead of just fixing real problems and releasing update

They implement new "cool" features that in long run are buggy and that's probably whats holding back the update process and we wait even longer :rolleyes:

Why even change do all these minor tweaks if we are supposedly getting 2.2 soon

edit

stays on for how long u have it set to go into stanby but still, its annoying. I have mine set to 30 mins just because i shut off screen when im dont using
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
of course I'm using headphones but it is broken when watching videos. Others have stated this as well. It works with the music player but not video. I hear absolutely no change in sound when I turn it on so I know it's not working.
[Vibrant General] kizer:
Personally I don't mind seeing whats different in JI5. Hell I just jumped from a nearly stock rom to it. ;)

I used to be a flash it the second it came out, but honestly after the G1 I kinda like to kick back a bit and use my phone opposed to flashing a new room every 4 hours. LOL
[Vibrant General] ProximaC:
You can now set custom alarm sounds on Calendar events, and set a default sound for calendar events. I think that's one of my favorite new feautures.

Not really a feature, but going into Settings/Sound and Display/Brightness causes a force close.
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
the thing is what's good for my phone doesn't mean it's good for your phone.

for some people JI2 was better

for some people JI4 was better

for some people JI5 was better

overall they all address GPS issues

and in my experience JI5 is smoother.

If you want to flash JI5, you still can.

here is JI5:

http://www.4shared.com/get/qYoXjAKC/tmpAFCFtmp.html

flash it through Odin

make sure u flash to stock JFD first since JI5 doesn't format /data

Now, wouldn't it have been easier and saved you keyboard strokes, if you would have just asked for my experience?

Captivate camera works in it pretty well. I missed my night time settings right in your face. :D

Just make sure you download the SuperUser app from the market so your apps can achive root. It wasn't included for some reason, but hey I don't mind clicking one more time in the market since I had to pickup Titanium anyways.

MobieTV app is broken. That was probably the"known issue" T-mobile was talking about.
[Droid Incredible General] redd12345:
I saw a few threads on this, but I wanted to clarify the procedure that I did, in the hopes of helping others.

My configuration was ShadowRom v0.0.1 with S-Off Rooted, etc.

NOTE: THIS PROCESS IS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE S-OFF ONLY-

1. I downloaded an original 2.1 PB31IMG.zip and put it on my SD card

2. Power off the phone and then hold the volume-down button and press power again to boot into FastBoot

3. Wait for FastBoot to read that there is an update and then press Vol-UP to start the update

4. After the update is finished, it will asK to reboot. Reboot the phone and it will boot back into FastBoot mode again (I don't know why, but it is verified.) Then it will give you the option to use FastBoot again. Press power button to start that mode. Apply the SAME update a second time. Then after the process has completed, follow the instructions to reboot.

5. You will now be downgraded to 2.1. Sign in as you normally would and go through the setup motions. Then go to Settings-Applications-Development and turn on Development when USB connected.

6. Download the S-ON zip from unrevoked and put that on your SD card. ALSO MAKE SURE TO DELETE THE ORIGINAL PB31IMG.ZIP from your SDcard!!! Download the Unrevoked 3.21 (you guys are gods) tool and connect to your pc to root the phone again.

7. Once this process is completed and you are in the clockwork recovery, go to flash zip from SDcard and flash the S-ON zip file that you put on your SD in the previous step.

8, Reboot your phone and go back to your normal Rosie with the clock, etc.

9. Download the 2.1 RUU that is labeled RUU_IncredibleC_Verizon_WWE_1.22.605.2_Radio_1.00.03.04.06_hboot_0.79_release_161494_NoDriver_0514.exe

10. Run this RUU with your phone connected. This will update the ROM from 1.22.605.0 to 1.22.605.2... at least in my case. Other PB31IMG.zip files may contain lower versions.

NOTE: The purpose of running the RUU is because you had to have root to flash the S-ON tool and now you need to flash a RUU to have the original Recovery... The easy way.

11. After you run the RUU and it flashes your phone with an update, log in like you normally would handle the setup and connect to WIFI to setup your google account. At some point, shortly after the setup, you will have a notification to install the 2.2 upgrade. From this point just follow the directions. This process DOES take a while and it will boot the phone over and over and display screens of a brightly lit phone and no words, OVER AND OVER.

I hope this helps people who are concerned about warranty issues that are related to legitimate hardware problems and need to have S-ON and a normal recovery and ROM that is stock. Thank you to XDA and everybody. I have been on here since my G1 and JesusFreke and Haykuro and TheDude. I wasn't sure if I was allowed to say where I was pulling the files from, but I'm sure that they will be easy to find for serious users.

-God Bless.-
[Droid Incredible General] gmichaelow:
Wouldn't it be the same if I s-on ed and then RUUed to 2.2?
[Droid Incredible General] redd12345:
As far as I know the two updates are almost identical. However there are some minor differences. The purpose of this thread was to make sure there aren't any at all and to verify receipt of stock OTA. As far as I can tell you have to have stock recovery AND S-ON because otherwise your 2.1 Rom will show as being up to date.

Red.

Edit: spelling.
[Droid Incredible General] boomertwo:
You say there is a minor difference between the RUU 2.2 and the OTA 2.2.

What is it? I want to know as I haven't found any. I already know the major difference between the OTA and RUU is that the OTA can only be applied if you have the correct radio, hboot, recovery, and android OS.

Please explain as I have yet to find any thread that gives a detail list of the differences. I mean both the OTA and the RUU share the same build number. If there is a difference between them then the build number should be different.
[Droid Incredible General] boomertwo:
Also I would like to add that according to the news that has been posted about conflippers website http://shipped-roms.com/ (Updated: Is now not owned by him but by PPCGeeks)

The the rules that HTC put on him is that he is not allowed to host test builds. He is allowed to host the files of the official releases.

This should also mean the the RUU that is hosted their is the correct build that is on our phones.
[Droid Incredible General] JoeyBert:
These instructions confuse me. How is this different from the "get back to stock" thread?
