And of course you're more than welcome to wait, too... I mean, there are millions of people around the world even now waiting anxiously for Jesus to return any second now, as they have been for over two millennia, and we're all happy, right? :) It's all good mate :D

My dear Yahia, there's nothing that would give me more pleasure than learning that this build's Nand version has not in fact been scrapped, trust me... I guess I was just a bit too disappointed when time demonstrated that it apparently had, but it'll pass. Thanks, I'll cheer up now :cool:

Now for the reason of this post: My HTC News widget is not updating anymore, not even when I try to do it manually. Anyone else encounter this issue? If so, any solution around for this, please?

Thx :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] shree.cse:
If you have a previous back up of news app and widget, restore it using titanium backup. Or try to sync greader in Accounts. Remove ur widget and select the subscriptions again. Any of these will work for sure. I have this problems on many HD builds even on Nand.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jrip777:
Yes me waiting and expecting core team to make a NAND version is exactly like millions of people waiting for Jesus to return...how did I not see that....THANK GOD for your post I dont know if my FAITH could have held up with out you...in fact I think Jesus has returned in the form of ajape on xda-developers!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] Fishawy:
LOL that was funny :D .. Don't worry guys, I trust there are no ugly issues, and am sure it will be released shortly. :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android SD Development] ajape:
Downloaded Google Reader and installed it, and after sync it was alright again. Thank you so much for that trick, it worked 5/5. :) Should really be made into some kind of sticky, what with the issue affecting all HD builds... Anyways, thanks for the help, man! :)

See? Now THAT'S the spirit, right on! Wait away mate, like I said, It's all good :D :D :D

I would have to borrow some of your cool and more than a dash of your patience, Yahia, if I wanted to go back to wait for this. But! That doesn't necessarily mean that I don't desperately wish, deep down, that you end up being absolutely right about it! :D :p

Are we ready for NAND or should the team old on.

Whe got it ready team is doing final testings on last RC tonight may be the night 99.9999999% chance.

[HD2 Android SD Development] kaizer hanz:
wOw.. AMAZING...!!! Thx Master...

I'm willing to leave Windows Phone 7 for this NAND :p
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Yes, I'm ready. I hope it will run and look like the wonderfull Desire HD v0.4. Go for it guys. But take your time. Better a perfect NAND one day later, than disappointed fans.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dr_jerremy:
I can't wait :)))))....finaly...:)))
[HD2 Android SD Development] Shum97:
The team have been doing a great job, I think we nearly ready 4 a release.

Been looking at other Nand builds and CoreDroid HD NAND blows em away:)

Stay tuned..shouldn't be long now...
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Sergio announced 3 hours ago on twitter the release of 2 builds tonight. A Desire Hd v2.2 and a Nand Hd v1.0
[HD2 Android SD Development] wigwam12:
As in a non-CoreDroid DesireHD?

What advantage over this version?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Cheech1976:
This being such a worldwide international forum (as a matter of fact, i love communicating with people all over the world, this is the only way :) ) i´d really appreciate it (sometimes) if it were clarified what "tonight" means :D

Could very well be middle of the night for me :-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Well.... Sergio is from the UK, I'm living in the Netherlands, and you're from Germany....

For you and me it is not that difficult. And yes "night" is somewhere between 00:00 and 06:00 LT.

People living in different time zones should be able to "calculate" their own release time period, don't you think?
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Just wait and see. Sergio is mr. CoreDroid so it will be CoreDroid builds.

This was already confirmed by Shum 97. Didn't you read his post 1156 on the previous page?
[HD2 Android SD Development] ajape:
No, it means that there will be a ROM released for the Desire HD device, and another ROM intended for the HD2 device. Both will be CoreDroid ROMs and both will be based on the original Desire HD ROM build, but both CoreDroid releases will not be for installation on the same type of phone.
[HD2 Android SD Development] titoxperiax10:
I hope next release in sd card version, I like to have 2 OS in my HD2 instead of 1... Nand version is awesome but we can only have Android... Is my opinion...
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Thanks for the additional info. As HD2 user I forgot Sergio was making Desire HD CoreDroid builds as wel. What you said was indeed Sergios tweet.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Cheech1976:
I´m not keeping track about who is from where aso. so i thought i just posted that, the thought made me smile, but it seems it didn´t do that for you ;)

To be honest i wasn´t taking myself that serious with the question anyway :D

OnTopic, i must say, i have been using this specific SD build for quite some time now, i am hoping for an SD build update as well, but even if there is no one planned, this build is really great.

NAND is no option for me, since i have TomTom on WinMo6.5 with quite new maps, and i really don´t want to loose the option to use it.

So thanks a lot for this one, it is really great. I am using it in everyday life and it really feels like the HD2 was always meant to run with this one :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] wigwam12:
I did - I am not sure how it answers the question I asked you though as he only explicitly mentioned the NAND CoreDroidHD build :confused:

I am perfectly happy to wait and see though ;)

I see, thanks for clarifying.

I DO hope I will be able to carry my data.img across - having spent the weekend backing up and rebuilding the apps on this build :D

Just to confirm - THIS build is also a CoreDroidified DesireHD-based build as well isn't it...?
[HD2 Android SD Development] ajape:
For the first question, none but Sergio himself could provide an answer, although I might venture to speculate that there's a good chance that the data.img from an SD build will not be fully compatible with the structure of a NAND build, or that it would cause some unforeseen issues. Then again, what do I know? I'm not part of the developing team so my speculations at this point are just that. :)

As for your second question, may I refer you to Sergio's own last post on twitter:
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
My apologies if we didn't understand our mutual sense of humor:(

It is always difficult to express yourself in a different language.

I hope the word "aso" you used is not supposed to mean the same as it means in Dutch. That wouldn't be nice, and is not necessary.
[HD2 Android SD Development] wigwam12:
Thanks. I got the wrong end of the stick entirely.

I thought there was also an updated SD build - hence the question. I am not interested in Nand for now
[HD2 Android SD Development] ajape:
If you look at my signature, you'll soon realize that I'm pretty much in the same position you are in right now. My NRG WM6.5 rom is absolutely perfect both in functionality and speed as well as in terms of battery usage, so I would have loved a solution that would have us running Android alongside WM6.5 perfectly, instead of with the limitations that the SD rom imposes. But like in most other things in life, one can't have it all... ;)

I didn't immediately install an Android SD build when they first came out, due to the fact that Android Lacked 3 extremely important apps for me: Garmin Mobile XT, Skype and Freda e-book reader. It was only after Skype for Android came out that I installed my first SD Android rom, and soon after was able to find Cool Reader, which has every single amenity and capability that Freda has, and so things were definitely manageable even without a solution for the lack of Garmin Mobile in Android. Anyways, assuming the battery consumption of any NAND build is on par with what my current NRG WM6.5 rom gives me, If I could find a way to convert all my Garmin Maps into a Navitel or Navdroyd compatible format I'd probably not miss WM much if at all, but as things stand currently (meaning no Garmin Navigation app for Android and no way to convert any Garmin NT maps to any other format) it will definitely be a hit.

But one has to go forward with the times, and Android seems to be the way forward, at least at this stage of WP7's life (No Skype OR Garmin Mobile available, but Freda is in this case), what with MS having cut off the doors to outside devs while making it non backwards compatible with the millions of already available WM6 apps. So what's left? trying to make do with the best available, which up until now at least seems to be the CoreDroid versions of Android for our HD2, and by far at that. Let's see what the night brings!!! :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] wigwam12:
Nice post and the best thing I learned in it - Cool Reader!

Freda is also my biggest hold onto WinMo - well that and the battery life!

New Thread for the NAND Version
[HD2 Android SD Development] quyzie:
The moment we've all been waiting for!
[HD2 Android SD Development] Cheech1976:
Didn´t want to start anything with my post, apologies if something i said came out wrong!

Aso = "and so on", i´m not one to become unfriendly and use words i wouldnt like ro read directed at me. I don´t know what that means in dutch language, but it seems it´s not a nice word, so i don´t have to know :D

Cheers :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] coolfire:
I sincerely hope there will be future upgrades for the SD version too.;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Thanks for your explanation. Glad that it is clear for me now. I was not familiar with the abbreviation of aso. Although I read, write and speak a lot in English, this one was new for me :)

Never to old to learn.

By the way: the reason to maintain using a SD build is the same for me. I bought a few months ago a full version of Navigon (wonderfull German nav solution). It is also available for Android and I'm using the limited trial version. But if I want the full benefits of it I have to use the WIMO version with each quater of a year map updates.

Of course I can buy again a new license for the full Android version. But that is too much.

Do you really like TomTom? I've used it for a very short period but Navigon is my favorite.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Cheech1976:
Actually i like TomTom very much, i have an in-car solution, that one is from Garmin, didn´t try any other gps-systems, since having both Garmin and TomTom the need for that wasn´t there.

Due to an error on the part of TomTom i was free to update the maps for complete western europe last december, and i am used to using TomTom and i find it to be very good.

If it weren´t for the new maps i would try something else, but i don´t want to pay for anything, since the TomTom i am using already cost enough (even if it was a long time ago).
[HD2 Android SD Development] Fishawy:
Thank you!! :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] Scabes24:
It doesnt look like it, sorry.
[HD2 Android SD Development] coolfire:
Ah, that sucks for me... :o
[HD2 Android SD Development] wigwam12:
To be fair I am not sure what else there was to tweak as it all seems to work?

Maybe:

-making it a little faster to get round the pauses it has

-improve the battery life

-put out a CorDroid Gingerbread SD ROM?

Anyway pity none of that will happen then

We need to handcuff some of these clever chefs to the SD route - it ain't all rosy in the NAND garden you know!
[HD2 Android SD Development] titoxperiax10:
Anyone knows if LCD Density Changer run well in this Rom?

I installed but it doesn't work...? I have busybox 1.6
[HD2 Android SD Development] mstrk242:
Well, depending on the size of the card, certain cluster sizes might not be available. (For example, I can format my 8 gb cards to 64k cluster sizes, for 4 and 2 gb cards, only options available are 32k.)
[HD2 Android SD Development] SkyWalka:
yea I've tried everything, still SD card error, just gonna wait for new build
[HD2 Android SD Development] mattfmartin:
Its allocation unit size. You should see like 5 or 6 different sizes
[HD2 Android SD Development] marianoitalianoo:
Tried this solution and it doesn't work!
[HD2 Android SD Development] mstrk242:
Ok, I have successfully gotten this to recognize my card as not damaged. I noticed when I went into linux and checked that the sdcard was formatted without partitions (meaning no mbr, master boot record.) I removed main partition, formatted the drive using fat32 with mbr, and it works on my smaller card. I'm going to test this on my main card, if it works, I'll edit this post and report back. (Apparently it's not rom related, but i'll test that too and let you all know.)

Making some progress......
[HD2 Android SD Development] kaiserlein:
For those having problems with the sd card try formatting the card with Panasonic SD Formater (see attached file). It's the best you can do to your card :D

Don't use the quick format option but do a full format.
[HD2 Android SD Development] DaDoctor:
I have used enabler a long time ago and if I remember correctly, you set it to a country or region since for example the ppl who live in china, arent gonna see the same apps if u were in the U.S. (atleast this is my understanding...)

Also, we did not include a "format SD" function in the WM core series if this is what ur talking about. I usually take my sd out of my phone, plug it in my pc and format using fat32...

Nice. I also always use fat32 with no issues...

Can someone else who is having SD issues try formatting SD using fat32 and report back? Please and thank u!
[HD2 Android SD Development] bigAL99:
Tried this solution, unfortunately doesn't work for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] DaDoctor:
Here is another option too. Please try if fellas!
[HD2 Android SD Development] Z's Windows Phone:
Nope it only says "Default allocation size."
[HD2 Android SD Development] Z's Windows Phone:
Againg it didn't work for me Fat32 full format. I will add the full format actually went just about as fast as the quick format I thought that was real odd as it normally take somewhere betwee 15 to 30 minutes normally.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mstrk242:
Yes, I'm testing a theory right now, but if your card is showing up as "damaged", and you're having the same issue I did, no amount of formatting in windows will fix it, linux, however, did. Give me another 30 minutes or so, (copying data on and off multiple cards just takes time :( ), and I'll find a windows solution. (My theory now is that you have to actually delete the partition itself under the disk management in windows, not just format. Let me finish up my final testing and I'll try to get back to you guys with a windows solution.)
[HD2 Android SD Development] tinuz97:
I think,not sure that only windows7 can do that....you also can try the panasonic format tool.After that in windows 7 you can do a quick format with 64 k cluster size. With panasonic tool do a full format.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Z's Windows Phone:
:D Take all the time you need (you have 29 minutes :D:D:D)
[HD2 Android SD Development] DaDoctor:
ODD is right, it should take ALOOTTT longer than the quick...

Okay it might also work on vista but unfortunitly my laptop is down on that I was able to get full access of my sd card but on my desk top which I use XP I had to buy a card reader my drive wont read my 8 and 16 gb cards.

Im trying the panasonic format tool now 50% done will give feed back when done.
[HD2 Android SD Development] hoga83:
Hello! It's not possible to set the alarm clock...
[HD2 Android SD Development] mstrk242:
Yes, the panasonic format tool does appear to work. I formatted a 4 gb sdcard in linux, with nombr, fat32, (which is the format that seemed to cause all the issues.) Then I used the tool, and put the card back into linux. It's showing mbr partition, so that does the trick. (I'm re-building this build on my main sdcard now, so I haven't had a chance to test the one just formatted, but based on what I'm seeing, it should work perfectly. I'll try it a little later and let you know, I'm getting a bit burnt out staring at the bars going up all day :))

I have artemis rom. Please help me
[HD2 Android SD Development] Cheech1976:
Did you try to format your sd card with f.e. panasonic sd formatter?

Generally this helps a lot, back up your stuff, format the sd card and give it a go.

What about the "android (file)"? You are talking about the folder, are you not?

I´d install EBL (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=737001) and let Android boot automatically, works perfect.
[HD2 Android SD Development] spoorman:
hello cheech 1976, thanks for ur reaction,

I mean folder i tried with another sd card but not succes i didnot have this problem i got only black screen en stay there
[HD2 Android SD Development] Cheech1976:
You might want to compare your setup with mine (radio, WinMoRom, SPL).

Mine is a european HD2, not TMOUS.

In WinMo i disabled HTC Sense and am using EBL as stated in my previous post.

The battery drain is really great (almost 2 days with moderate use, heavy use still gets 1 day out of battery, enough to plug it in in the evening without having to rush).

Also the only "problems" i am encountering:

- Mobile network sometimes doesn´t work, in that case, i just switch on airplane mode an back again, after that synchronizing etc. works fine. This happens very rarely.

- LED notifications: Sometimes it stays on, then i write an email to myself, upon receiption the LED works normal again.

And sometimes the LED notification doesn´t work at all, rebooting doesn´t help.

Rebooting without having it plugged into a charger that is.

I have a feeling that a reboot with this build should be done with the charger plugged in (for a while at least), after that nothing is missing and everything is fine.

If i reboot without charger, the LED notifications always fail.

Ok... Have been using this rom for a few days now, and it's the 1st Android rom I've flashed on my HD2 (only had it a week) and I want to try a different one. I have been searching through the thousands of posts here on XDA and simply cant find one with instructions on flashing back to stock to flash something new... I know its out there, something about task29 or something of the sort, I just CAN NOT find it. Can some one either give me directions, or a link to directions so I can bookmark it and NEVER have to ask this again ;)

Thanks in advance...

*edit* I should say that I've tried running a stock RUU and the task29.exe just with android running, in boot loader, and from USB Flasher in MAGDLR... all give me and "Error 260" can not connect... which I have also searched to no avail :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] DaDoctor:
Wow, so you flashed an SD version? Can you explain how please?

R u sure you arent talking about this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=926507

If so and you want to switch to WINDOWS again then all u need to do is reboot the phone and hold the volume down button to go into bootloader (multi-colored screen) and flash an OFFICIAL TMOBILE ROM

Good luck!
[HD2 Android SD Development] spaternitejr:
Wrong post. Yes you are correct... its the other SD version. I can boot into bootloader and can't establish a connection to flash official Rom. It says USB at the bottom and it shows connected in the tray on my pc... but keep getting the same error :/ any advise?

I sure hope not, it would be a shame for us to lose the best SD ROM...

[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Well.... I will not disappoint you but as far as I understood Sergio will only continue to work on NAND versions.

Although I also loved his SD builds (Desire v0.8 and Desire HD v0.4) I made the step to say bye bye to WiMo. And I do not regret.

His HD2 CoreDroid DHD V1.1 works awesome and a newer version which will be even faster, will come soon.
[HD2 Android SD Development] antaed:
thanks for your post wanahave, it would be nice to also have an "official" answer from the developers themselves :)

if i'll ever decide to flash an android build i will surely try coredroid dhd first. for the moment however, i prefer the dual-boot option with wp7 on my internal memory.
[HD2 Android SD Development] wanahave:
Well than you should read all the CoreDroid threats and posts. Sergio confirmed this somewhere but I don't remember which post it exactly was :)

I advise you to go to the Nand HD2 Desire V1.1 threat and ask him self. Sergio is reading all the post there while cooking an update build for his nand version.

I read posts from all my threads I got them all connected to my phone.

For those asking for a update to this build there will be none I'm sorry it is good as it is there is little that can be done too improve the build. You should move too nand if you like android. My wife uses it as her daily phone and no complains if she can manage my hd builds on my hd2 so you guys can. As for those using both w7 and android well I really no see a point in there you should stick too one. I really don't like windows 7 for me android is the best OS on a phone with no doubt.
