I have had issues with the GPS. The GPS Status app from the market fixed them for me. In the app when you hit menu touch "tools" then "manage A-GPS state". I used that to reset my GPS data, then download the A-GPS data. After a few minutes my GPS locked on. Since then it locks on very quickly. I don't know if this will help you or not, but it can't hurt to try.
[HD2 Android SD Development] p/t_rockstar:
New on here, not much to say except a big Thank You to everyone (especially the OP) for their contributions so far. Read up almost 50 pages so far, as long as this thread is, the one attributed to the last TV i bought was even bigger :D

Also I've noticed that the Gallery Widget takes forever to display images & sometimes just doesn't. Also the camera's instant preview doesn't work for me.

Any way I can fix this ?

edit:

charged the device & it started working as it should, go figure !

Will try this tomorrow..will let you know if works..

Thank you

Check the first post; skim through and find the area that specifies the wifi-tether patches in the FAQ. The thing that I noticed is that it works off of data plan, so I had to turn off the wifi, check it out and you'll see.

I used this combo for the WM ROM because I don't use it either; it's clean, not junk, etc.

I shouldn't have installed 8.5.1. I was on 8.5 and everything was working just perfectly, no data drops and very low battery drain. 8.5.1 has made me loose stability, connection drops and idles at 56ma all the time. ugh

But if that doesn't work, post your Radio/ROM versions...works for me with 2.14 Radio, but then again I'm in the US, not Germany. Your stuff might be totally different.
[HD2 Android SD Development] specialdune:
ROM: 2.11.50.20

Radio (? On boot it says G, dont know if it is this) 15.40.50

Maybe i should upgrade my ROM? :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Try and use 2.14 radio if it works in Germany, I'd imagine it does. You're on Vodafone I assume?
[HD2 Android SD Development] specialdune:
I'm on T-mobile alias Telekom

I'll install 2.14 and hope it works :)

I'll report when i'm done, thank you so far.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Ah, well look for the 2.14 radio, try that.

Still having that animation slowness issue related to live wallpapers...
[HD2 Android SD Development] rogerone:
Very good ROM for really daily use...

Great work Tytung

Your ROM is really fulfilling the promises you post. I am using 1.6 now since it came out and on normal use there is 30% battery left at the end of the day. Performance is great, very rarely a screen frees, but this might also be caused by the SD card i used. Got a faster one and it happens now very rarely.

Love the simplicity of the ROM. Real Android and after being in the HTC Sence prison I can now do thinks that are not possible in Sence: 2 or more Exchange mailboxes either in combined view or apart. Loads of apps available, how a relieve from WinMo. And it just works. Beautiful.

I am running the latest TMOUS 3.14 ROM underneath it. When is it possible to get rid of this and run Android in full Android mode?

Just upgraded to 1.7 and eagerly waiting on the update with the latest kernel. It looks very promising.

Thanks also for all the links in the FAQ. Really helpfull.

Roger

PS: tried to latest Nexus Sense ROM's from XDA to compare and most of the times you can see the battery getting drained. Some drained my battery from 40% in 1/2 an hour! I don't understand people using Sence. It was always limited and full of bugs. That's why everybody started cooking ROM's.

Googles Android is really well done and a great operating system. No wonder it will be n# 1 next year.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Very nice indeed, I agree. Chek out LCD Density on the App Brain market to change the screen resolution, looks MUCH better set to 180 rather than 240. To answer your question about getting rid of WinMo and flashing Android, this has yet to be done. No chef has that out yet, not sure why.

Bouygues internet problem

Hi Tytung

I noticed in all the Android ROM's that the settings for Bouygues GPRS/3G do not work. It is a very strange problem.

Searched everywhere but the connection does not work.

Sometimes mail traffic passes but browsing or Google maps, no way.

Bit annoying but I prefer using Android without internet only on WiFi above WinMo and HTC Sence with both :)

Anyway the move from HTC to Samsung is coming....

If you know a solution happy to hear.

Thanks man.

Tu trouveras sur le lien suivant, cette version Android full updated et avec une version spécial Bouygues Telecom (j'ai fait ce package pour des amis et je suis personnellement chez BT).

http://htcleo.noobhands.net/manusfreedom/Android_NexusHD2-FRG83D_V1.7_ManusFreedom_Updated_FR.rar 226MB

Il faut bien lire le readme.txt (avec des fautes d'orthographe dedans :) ).

Et il ne faut pas oublier de séléctionner le bon opérateur dans les settings d'Android.
[HD2 Android SD Development] specialdune:
I've installed ROM 2.14 now, nothing changed.

I know from my old Navigon settings of WM, that i had to change the UserSettings.xml.

I had to change GPS configuration to this:

Maybe this Version uses another Baudrate and/or GPS Port?

Haven't found a UserSettings.xml here :(

[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
The correct APN settings will determine if the 3G connection is working well or not.

However, I don't know the correct APN for Bouygues.

You need to find out by yourself.
[HD2 Android SD Development] manusfreedom:
The problem for Bouygues Telecom is DNS on PPP, that why I build a version with google DNS replaced by Bouygues Telecom (directly in build.prop).
[HD2 Android SD Development] rogerone:
Merci, très gentille. Thanks very much. Strange that Bouygues follows this policy. I had also troubles connecting with a standard build abroad. Google maps becomes useless without an internet connection so you have to go back to a good old GPS :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] manusfreedom:
(I am a guy...)

I don't why Bouygues is different but getting on PPP we can't access Internet without set the DNS to Bouygues one. Maybe they block DNS port for mobile (I will try to check that when I have the time).
[HD2 Android SD Development] phoboye:
Rom works great but there's a few things I wanted to mention. My network connection drops frequently, but when it doesn't then it is blazing fast. Also, is there a way to keep the bottom buttons lit while the screen is in, like a script? It is hard to see the menu and back buttons when it is dark. Thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] CharismaRise:
GPS doesn't seem to work in this build. Are there any official instructions on how to fix it? Otherwise.. this is simply a perfect build!

Did you take out the SIM Card and Micro SD Card?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=653614

Make sure you "power down" your phone, take out battery, remove cards, reinstall battery, power up, usb hook-up and active sync, if installed on computer, should show in HD2 task bar.

ADW will not brick your phone and neither will the bootloader.

Remember, every time that you install a new ROM or Radio that you must remove the cards.
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
I've never had a corrupt file from XDA. Try redownloading. Any problems are listed in the FAQ or use the "search forum" tab...but, ask any question and everyone here is really good at helping out.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mulletcutter:
off topic, bootloader, isnt this where you can pick WM or android? like b4 it boots up. . .
[HD2 Android SD Development] CharismaRise:
Just looked and unfortunately there is not a single word about GPS there :confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] soneracar:
You can install ebl 2.0 on windows mobile rom which lets set the auto boot up. Some winmo roms already have them.

If I knew how to attach a file I would.

[HD2 Android SD Development] DIGItonium:
I'm not sure if it's related, but are you getting location problems? It appears my HD2 is having trouble locking down GPS satellites. It happened on Sunday as I was driving back to KS from TX. However, it happened on the WinMo side as well.

I updated to the latest WinMo build from NRG and updated to 1.7 here without much luck. However, I was able to download GPS satellites using QuickGPS. GPS worked for a bit, but it still had trouble locking in and My Location isn't working on either side.

[EDIT] It seems like My Location and GPS started working again under WinMo. On the Android side, GPS appears to be working as well in Google Maps. WeatherBug struggled to determine my location, and it wouldn't activate GPS either. I managed to get it working again by "clearing data" for WeatherBug. So it appears something stopped working on Sunday night and it started working again today. [shrugs]

nexus HD2 user feedback

your build works really good for me, I was using the Froyostone but I prefer stock android so thank you.

I have had no issues, everything works GPS,WiFi,camera+flash,no SOD,app market.

This build is super fasssst and reponsive like you posted.

The battery only lasted about four hrs at first.

After I installed a cpuset type app battery has improved, I still have to charge phone by lunch time but HTC screwd us all with a small battery.

The build is a bit slow to wake,after HD2 is awake its all good, this depends on the cpu setting that user sets.

Build is very stable.

Cant wait for that ginger update, much love&respect from Hollywood.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dan138zig:
my battery drains 400+ mA when using internet or playing game. is this normal?

also, does setcpu work with this build?
[HD2 Android SD Development] specialdune:
Hi, me again.

After 1 hour and 20 minutes, Navigon got a GPS signal :D

Anyway, is it possible to change Androids GPS settings?

Maybe I can get it work faster for me, won't wait so long on each GPS routing :D

Your Build is so f**n nice, i've tested some of the Android builds. Hope this will get working for me, than all is just fine :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] tranquillo:
this is normal, in standby-mode 5-8mA.

i don't use setcpu, my battery is good for up to 24 hrs... :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] dan138zig:
my standby mode is 11 mA even with APN off :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] mwebb76:
That's in the acceptable range.

That extra 3ma means he might get an extra 15 minutes use, but in practical terms there are too many variables to get too confident about that.

[HD2 Android SD Development] phat_11:

Hi all

I'm having difficulties when dialling or receiving calls from bluetooth. I can us ad2p fine but when I receive a call I cannot hear the other person..same when I call out..also when not on blue tooth when I call out the dialer takes ages too load up our freezes for a short while when I tap on contact to call out..any fix ideas
[HD2 Android SD Development] phat_11:
works like charm indeed

getting around 7 and 18 when on standby :confused:

will getting the winmo into airplane mode (where I guess all is disabled datawise) then launching the android help on anything?

no matter what I think around 12 hours is acceptable for a daily use... Plus I have a power source almost always nearby so I don't complain much.

Thanks again a zillion times for the tremendous effort to give to the HD2 a second life :D

[HD2 Android SD Development] Johev:
Hi people, first of all I would like to thank you for a very nice Android for my HD2.

This was the first time I have tried to run Android on my phone, so please bear with me.

I have downloaded, extracted and copied all the folders to my SD card root.

I was able to run it, first the C*** something for the sound and than the Haret for the OS.

I have one problem though, if I turn off the screen (with the call reject hardware button) or if it goes black, I can not turn it on. Android is still working in the background, so if I receive a call I can answer it with my hardware keys, but the only way to get it to work is to take out the battery and start again WM.

I have:

ROM: Artemis v29 (pt version)

Radio: 2.08.5xxxx

HSPL 1.42

Any help appreciated.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
The c*** thing is clrcad.

Update your Radio to 2.14, that fixed it for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mmaner:
I'm a n00b to the HD2 and Android builds, Ive had mine for a couple of weeks now... I love this build though, operationally its smoother and more 'daily driver' than any of the other builds I've tried.

I'm having a few GPS and Data issues, but for the most part if I turn on > off airplane mode my data connection comes back. Same this with GPS using the GPS button.

Not sure if there are any Crimson Tide fans out there but here's a wallpaper I did the other day and thought I'd share.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Yeah I have the data issue too, cycling airplane mode fixes it. Don't know about that one. I'd love to hear a fix if somebody has one. Doesn't happen all that much but if this could be fixed, this honestly would be the PERFECT HD2 Android build.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mmaner:
...also. Im running radio v2.15.50.14. Would downgrading to 2.14.xx.xx help on the GPS & Data issues? THe only way I know to see the radio & firmware version is to reboot and very quickly read the small tag at the bottom left. Is there an app or some other method of getting this info? thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
No, I'm on 2.14 as well.

Yes, you can also set it to autoboot Droid and how much time to do it in, so, every time you reset your device it will automatically boot into Droid without having to do any extra steps.

Anyone get Cyanogenmod or Droidmod to work with this build?
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
Sorry 'bout that, should've double checked before I gave such a response. What seems to be your exact problem?
[HD2 Android SD Development] dan138zig:
I actually had done that. But I thought I have to install them or something instead of just copying. Oh well, thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
At one point I had Cyanogenmod, but am very happy with VBN as I do not us WM at all. If you'd like the link is in my sig.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
What's CM even do? Their site is kinda vague.

You're happy with VBN but you don't use WM? Contradicting a bit. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
You can download Yahoo from Market. And, add email accounts: click on email,accounts, add account, etc. On WM I could only be signed in on one Windows email at a time, on this I have three up and running and receive notices from all.
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
Use the "paper-clip" above when typing a response, that's for attaching a file; like this...

[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Do these bootloaders load clrcad? I know that really popular one doesn't. Can't remember the name...
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
I'm happy with VBN because it doesn't have any of the b.s.; it's so minimal in files and programs, as to have more space for Droid. And, with use of EBL, I think it's the closest thing to actually only have Droid.
[HD2 Android SD Development] naeem151287:
This is best ever build. I hope Gingerbread leaks soon and is ported to the HD2 :D

[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Already being worked on.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
So most of the ones integrated with the winmo ROMS on XDA will load clrcad?
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
If an auto-boot-loader is already supplied with a WM ROM, yes it will boot the clrcad and haret.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
It's not automatic, at least I don't think it is. There's an app in there called (something to the effect of) Android Boot or something like that.

Which ROM should I get that has an auto bootloader? I'm on Radio 2.14, Tmo USA and the Android build in this thread. Note: I do not want robo voice, or black screen of death.
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
I don't think any one wants robo-voice/blackscreen :). Check my signature, I'm on TMO/USA also, and this is the best combo I've found so far; here are all files to have:in my signature.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
I'll give VBN a shot again, I might have used it once with a different Android build. We'll see if this makes Android EVEN faster, maybe it'll fix my live wallpaper lag issue. (Not the wallpaper itself, the Android animations.) Thanks bud.
[HD2 Android SD Development] deadmansink:
In settings, display,animation is it set to all animations?
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Yes. That's why I said the animations are choppy and laggy.

This rom is just awesome!!!! Best I have used so far.

Pros

- Hotmail EAS is working

- Fancy Widget

- No SODs

- "Great" Battery Life

- Smooth and Fast

- T-Mobile Data works flawlessly with these settings:

Cons

- Yet to have tried GPS

- Screen at times has lag

- Touch Screen freeze at times

This is how I use my HD2

- My Personal Full WM 6.5.3 ROM (CleanEx Core)

- I reformated my SD card twice

- First few runs only had my Android folder in the SD card (After a few runs I brought in my music and documents

The cons are not deal breakers though. This is my full-time Phone OS.
