carrier name location?

Hi,

I've searched everywhere and even deleted the eri.xml file from the framework-res.apk, but still cant change the carrier name display. If it's at all possible could you tell me where the carrier name is stored in this rom.

thanks.

Hey there, I love your build. Everything works out love it !!! I upgrade using r8.5.1. old driver. Everything is fine ! love the build!
[HD2 Android SD Development] dan138zig:
after recording some vids, i notice that the sound is poorer than in winmo. maybe because it's 3gp instead of mp4. do i have to settle with this or is there any workaround?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Vincy91:
I've setted the audio settings to max sound but it is very low...what could be the problem? Are there any patch or fix for the more powerful sound? Thank's in advance

PS: i have the 3MP problem too...is it a kernel problem or a rom problem?

RE: Broken WIFI...

"EDIT: With the 8.5 upgrade, wifi seems to be broken. Can anyone else confirm this?

check the module folder... the problem occurred to me as well. somehow the 3 files that should be in there were gone. copied them from the update-zip. works like a charm (="

Guess i'm a tard, cant find the module folder or an update.zip file. Any direction for the short bus guy (me) would be appreciated. :/

Okay clean install 1.7 from 1.5 , it's been awesome with battery and all. then all a sudden the unexpected happened. I made a phone call and hang up pressing the red call button/power button and all a sudden the phone soft-reset it self. I thought it was probably a one time thing and so curiously I made another phone call and hang up but this time I pressed the hang up button on the dialer. It soft -reset again. I dont know what's going on but I guess Im going to format the card and do a clean install. if that doesnt do justice, I'll just go back to 1.5

For those having problems accessing secured pages (https) and get a blank screen, you need to delete the proxy and port in your apn settings. This is not the mms ones, but the first ones you see. Apparently it's a froyo 2.2.1 issue. I guess it's only with T-Mobile users too.

Hello Android builders and Android users. Just installed NexusHD2-FRG83D and i'm impressed. Just think have to install some toggle on/off switches for data, wifi etc. So i can get maximum battery power. I also think after 1 year the quality of the battery will be less then when it was new. So in 2 moths i will get a new battery. Is there someone on this forum perhaps some builders or users who can confirm my spec's as above are ok. Im testing now and will comeback for the result and some answers. Will watch this thread closely.

Thanks allot.

You say that in android builds battery consumption is related to WM roms, so a quick question: What about Dutty's ROMs? i keep WM on dutty because it's one of the best WM roms out there, to use when i need a WM and not android.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mulletcutter:
Why would you ned a wm rom over android?
[HD2 Android SD Development] 1keynose:
i am finding battery life is very poor. having read many posts trying to find a solution, i am still not really any wiser. i have learned that it may be down to choice of rom and radio. i have the energy rom and radio 2.12.50.02_2. can anyone please recommend an alternative combo for this build? also yesterday was the first time i have installed android so will i need to reinstall and back up my apps or will they all still remain on the sd card an boot as normal?

many thanks

[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
That makes no sense. Deleting the proxy and port renders it useless..
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
The android build will remain on the SD card.. when you change the radio or WM ROM it will not affect it BUT I still remove the SD card when flashing since I am panicky like that...

I am using the same radio but using ChuckyDroid ROM GTX lite which is working well for me... Getting over 1600 Quadrant Score and decent battery life.. NOT using SETCPU...

Just a word of advice, everyone seems to have different results with the same configs not sure why so just keep trying different combinations until you find one that works... WHEN YOU FIND A GOOD ONE, post it here and DONT CHANGE IT... LOL... Sounds stupid but its true... Leave it alone if everything works...

Last piece of advice is TASK 29... Read up on that and I recommend doing it when you change the WM ROM... I think it worked well for me...
[HD2 Android SD Development] divdt:
What is the difference between a stock rom and a stable and fast custom rom in relation of running android?
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
Not sure i follow your question but the radio and ROM will affect how Android runs on the HD2..

Some use the stock rom but most use custom roms and play around with different radios to see which one is most stable..

Does that make sense?

You should use the hastarin r8.5.1_oldcam version.
[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
It not happened to me.

However, you can try to rename or delete /system/etc/firmware/default.acdb

Someone told me that it can fix the soft-reset problem.
[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
Please see my signature to find out the working WM ROMs and Radio combinations.

All the apps are installed in the data.img, so you need to backup it.

Wonderful build, absolutely everything works for me and the battery life is pretty solid with LauncherPro -- you are the best. Will donate soon!

Have a quick question though. I searched through the thread and wasn't able to find anything.

Should I unplug my device when it reaches 100% charge or can I leave it plugged in? I know previous Android builds have had issues with charging beyond 100% and thus frying the battery, so I figured I'd ask before causing irreparable damage to my device. Thanks!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] mulletcutter:
never heard that about the battery. I'm using adw, is there a diff in barter between the two?

Also my display is ask the way down but its still saying 60 70% in the battery stats, or is that normal?

Testing battery life today....yahoo fantasy football , nfl red zone. .Wifi...
[HD2 Android SD Development] jdmitr:
tytung - just wanted to say that you have an awesome build here. I just came off of pongsters hyperdroid only because he was not going to update his builds. I was a bit nervous looking at many different builds (didnt want sense) and I am glad I decided on yours! It is very fast and stable. I really have had no issues thus far! Keep up the good work and I will be donating asap.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dds517:
Spyderman33, you don't need the proxy to use data. Go ahead and try it. If you delete the proxy and port your data connection still works. MMS works too. But this is specifically for the https (secure webpage) problem people are having. Please read up on the subject before commenting.

If ignorance is bliss you must be a very happy person.

thanks again. really love your android rom. i thought winmo was good until this.

oh well. back to the drawing board. the chinese rom didnt work, tried another 1.66 rom before going back to the energy rom. now android doesnt load. i get the small text in the top left but thats how it stays. :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] dds517:
You just proved my point. I said it was for T-Mobile users and you obviously are not one. So it doesn't pertain to you. Maybe that's why it doesn't work for you. Could that be it? So it actually does make sense, doesn't it.

It annoys me when people reply to posts uninformed that is all.
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
I am changing my first post because I dont want to hijack this thread. This thread is about the HD2 Nexus build not about a piss fight.

I appreciate your feedback even though you are wrong in your approach.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mwebb76:
Your original reply was:

You ARE uninformed. It makes complete sense, and works on some of the world's largest carriers, including T-Mobile. The information you provided is utterly wrong for the majority of people who will read it.

It's an interesting bit of trivia that it doesn't work on the second rate reseller you've decided to go with, but you didn't include that qualification in your original reply.
[HD2 Android SD Development] omaropa:
DPI?

I was trying to change the DPI to 200 but couldn't find how to. Anyone knows how do I do it on this build? Tried searching but that didn't work

[HD2 Android SD Development] divdt:
Use Quick settings app to control battery consumption .

I found a nice app i would like to share, last night i used it to turn of data, gps, wifi etc and the next morning ( 8 hours) only 5% less. From 100% to 95% So my advise to you all if you don't use data or wifi etc turn it off. (freeware)

Quick Settings gives you control over 12 frequently used Android settings like:

- Brightness

- Ringer type

- Volume control

- WiFi

- Network data (on/off & 2G/3G setting shortcut)

- mobile data (apn)

- Bluetooth

- GPS (shortcut)

- Screen Timeout

- Airplane mode

- Auto-sync

- Auto rotation

- Lock pattern

and other features like:

- Highly customizable view allows you to see only those settings that you need

- Quick access to these settings via status bar shortcut

- Configurable full screen or dialog appearance
[HD2 Android SD Development] mulletcutter:
Try turning on airplane mode, then turn it off. When I do a quick reboot i have to do this.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dan138zig:

FM Radio

Very stable build so far so I am still on the V1.6, battery drainage has got better with every reboot.

and radio2.12.50.02_2

so far so good, thanks!
[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
Well, I forgot to mention another solution.

V1.7 uses FRG83_stockbar_add-on_H_icon_and_battery%_icon.zip in default.

You can upgrade to FRG83D_stockbar_add-on_H_icon_and_battery%_icon.zip

http://sites.google.com/site/nexushd2android/nexushd2-frg83/addons

This's another solution to soft-reset problem posted in this thread a few days ago.

Edit:

I see you find the solution too. Please ignore my post.:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] nzxtneo:
Only some apps have "install to SD" enabled.

Just create a bigger data.img, the default is set to 512 MB. You can specify the different data image size in startup.txt
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
That doesn't format or erase anything, right? All my apps, and etc will still be there?
[HD2 Android SD Development] nzxtneo:
Oh no, it DOES erase everything.

But if you selected "backup with google" when you first installed, then mostly everything will re-install automatically.

You could always backup with Appbrain to be on the safe side.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
I could just make a backup copy of data.img to another device, correct? I'm pretty sure I selected to backup with Google...

I also noticed that when using live wallpapers (any of them), the GUI slows WAY down. The menu scrolling becomes really choppy, animations are choppy. Anyone know of a fix for this? Or is Android just weird this way...
[HD2 Android SD Development] thxiso:
1. Make sure you uncheck the "resize file only no resize2fs" option before click the "create file" button.

2. Open startup.txt in \Android\, replace "data_size=512" with the actual size of your data.img, such as "data_size=1024" or "data_size=2048" or else.

3. Reboot.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Well it's at 2036MB, I couldn't go to exactly 2048... But I just fixed that in startup.txt, and it didn't help. I don't remember seeing any "resize file only no resize2fs" button though.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Okay, just resized it to "2039" again since the slider skips over 2048, can't select that.

Edited startup.txt to reflect the new size, and that fixed it. Looks like I did check off that box....

But...I'm still having speed issues when using live wallpapers. All animations are MUCH slower, very choppy. Fix for this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] spyderman33:
I had the same problem with that radio. I am using the radio/WM ROM listed below and it is working fine now...

One thing that worked for me on the radio you are using was opening Google Maps first and letting that lock in and then opening Navigation.

[HD2 Android SD Development] flashy:
my phone calls do not function, it sounds like a darleck is on the other end, and then makes the phone utility unresponsive forcing me to either force a close or wait.

Reboot of the phone is then required and the same thing happens when you try to call out.

Any ideas?

Im using the latest build with the 2.14.50.04 radio which works fine under WinMo and for incoming phone calls under android.

Any chance there is a fix or some settings i can change to correct this?

Best Regards
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
You're out of luck if you don't want to change from the stock ROM. That's the fix...

Any reason why you won't change? They all work the same...certain ones just have more features. Look around on the HD2 ROM page.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mulletcutter:
I've been reading, got it a favorite. Just got my hd2 last week so I've having fun so far.
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Right, just make sure you write down the exact size (number-wise) that you set it to, and DON'T CHECK OFF THE BOX under the radio buttons before clicking resize. Go to startup.txt, and drop in the exact number that you resized the file to, and start it up. If it doesn't work, you did something wrong.

changed data.img from 512 to 1100, cant select 1024, and clicked resize and it did its thing.

set ramaddr 0x11800000

set ramsize 0x1e400000

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "rel_path=Android data_size=1100 wifi.mac=00:11:22:33:44:55"

boot"

where it says 1100 it used to say 512, this is where i changed it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] agentfazexx:
Yes.......
[HD2 Android SD Development] tytung:
The data_size in startup.txt is only read and used for creating a new data.img when there's no data.img file in the Android folder.

In other words, when there's a data.img in the Android folder, data_size is ignored.

If DATA.IMG Maker not works, please try another method. But you need a Linux to do it.

I had the same problem: make sure to resize the correct file, data.img, don't go over the 2048, wait for program to finish and do a hard reset.
