Hi guys, i have more then 2 weeks trying to load android on my hd2 and always fail....i tried differents android rooms following the steps.. "from the android folder run CLRAD then Haret" but when is booting always shows this...( failed to find rootfs on sd card..you need to unzip a rootfs ) so i started over everything again but still the same... this is what i got in my phone

R 2.15.50

G15.42.50

D 3.14.04666 8G

and i'm using chukydroid room ...so please somebody can really help me with this ..i'm afraid that my phone get damage and I could never use it!!!:confused:

Thanks a lot
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
What android build are you using?

All you do is drag and drop the android folder on the root of your sd. After that, while booted into windows, use the file explorer to open the android folder. Click on clrad then haret. If you are using chuckydroid rom, you don't need to manually touch haret. Use ebl boot load program and set auto boot.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
Can I just ask what size and class of SD card you are installing onto?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deiman23:
i'm using this build...nexusHD2 FRG83_V1.5_(froyo2.2.1)

i tried using EBL but says there is no android room on sd card!!

and now i'm trying to go back to wm6.5 and i don't know how to do it?? this chukydroid room is totally out of my knowlege..if you can give me a hand to going back to windows, i much appreciate and i'll invite you a couple of beers lol :) ...thanks a lot for you time
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
just boot into your chuckydroid rom, connect via usb, and flash a new rom with the nbh file. its just the same as any windows rom flash.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mmduluth:
um. you are unzipping the android folder that you download first right? if your just downloading it and then drag and dropping it to the root of your SD card it isnt going to work. you have to unzip it first. sorry if i'm stating the obvious here...

Please help me here.

Android is so intimidating. I cannot figure out how to install custom launchers and get the cool icons and slick looking home screens like in the post your screens threads. Can someone provide me with some sort of directions? I appreciate your help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psichi:
1) Install a launcher from the market

2) Press the Home button

3) Select the other launcher

4) Profit
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhoffy22:
I should have been more clear, I want to be able to customize the icons of launchers and what not...some of the home screens look amazing but I just don't know how to go about doing that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shutupRoman:
google launcher pro, and launcher pro icons.

do some research... it's really really really easy..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pbrussell:
Launcher pro and the rest is usually widgets....and custom icons but yea in the "themes and apps" section there is a thread devoted to custom launcherpro screen shots....and most of then list what widgets/icon set they are u using

I have 2 issues

Even though my sky mail account is set to download just one a day at peak time and same off peak it still seems to just download all mail ad I get it using up battery power

I'm also not convinced that if I press the home key whilst webbrowsing it stops the browser.today I wa s in the middle of downloading a web page and had to do something so I pressed the home key and left my phone in my jacket when I returned an hour or so later my screen was on and the web page was fullyoaded
[Desire HD General] combat goofwing:
any views on this ?
[Desire HD General] Codana:
I heave a really big problem with this bull***t. It drives me crazy!

With the ne HTC Sense you have "Reflow Text" in every broswer.

So if you zoom (doesn't matter if double tab or pinch) the browser switch to another part of the page. It is just impossible to zoom to a place you want. Sometimes it just kicks it to the left end of the page!

And I can't turn it off! So why HTC?? Why I can't turn it off?

I hope there is or there will be a solution for this :(

Apparently, there is a fix for the Desire, but I'm not certain if it applies for Desire HD. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=786290
[Desire HD General] Codana:
Android Version: 2.2

Build Number: 1.32.405.3

Browser Version: 3.1

Not sure if it could work? Do I lose warranty with this?
[Desire HD General] appelflap:
I love the way the browser reflows the text. Best reflow of all the browsers I used on both the windows mobile (wp7, wm6.x) and the android platform.

But maybe it comes with some costs... Fortunately, I don't need a exact zoom like you do.

Not at all. Just try.
[Desire HD General] Codana:
Better idea: "about:debug" -> Menu -> Settings -> GEP Zoom an -> :D

Doubletab: relfow

Pinch-zoom: no reflow :eek:

Thank god!
[Desire HD General] santet:
How did you sort this out. cant find the menu steps you stated here on the desire hd.
[Desire HD General] sessizz:
Write about:debug your address bar and press enter key. After that you'r going to debug mode of browser then tap menu>settings> and go down there is Enable GEP Zoom. Enable that.
[Desire HD General] Seanambers:
I cant agree more, the htc browser zooming is ****, can't really see why anyone would like it better than original ASOP zooming. There are no real benefits to this text reflow thingey when you pinch zoom.

about:debug works great though :)

I have my evo rooted running Myns 2.2 with netarchy no HAVS kernel and colin_ph battery tweak with riptide theme.

Gmail has always worked fine, and now it is force closing. I reboot the phone and it does the same thing. I tried to update but it is already fully updated. I also tried to find a way to uninstall and then reinstall but cannot figure out how to do that.

How can I fix this??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alero:
Had the same problem. Had to uninstall with Root Explorer and reinstall.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7shadows:
wierd. 2 of my apps (not gmail) started randomly force closing today too...and i cant even redownload them off the market right now..its just stuck on "starting download". I have changed nothing in the past day either.

Cant be coincidence...

There is a problem parcing the package????
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] legendary1022:
If is a parcing error you usually have to download on a computer and move it to your phone then install.

I don't think the g2 has been shown to have a FM radio chip inside. Has it? If not tune in (aka radiotime) will work for most major markets.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] scrizz:
the phone does have a FM transmitter and receiver....

it's just a matter of getting it on

;)

NAND unlock can't soon enough
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] SuperDave81:
APK's not valid, only contains MAINIFEST.MF
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] j.books:
FM radio won't be accessible until someone implements it in a custom ROM, like Cyanogen did on the N1. perm root is needed to get the drivers working, etc. it'll happen at some point.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] DJ ELITE:
that's what i feared.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] InGeNeTiCs:
If you pulled it from the evo then it's not a 'stock' froyo radio. It's the fm tuner by htc, and it probably requires some sense frameworks to function. Not to mention it probably requires kernel changes.

Sorry to disappoint...

And if I'm not mistaken, isn't the CM fm app a modified version from the MIUI roms?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] wilnotdie:
I'm not sure if it needs much from Sense. I read a week ago that a group got it working. I also read that it was gonna be part of cm6.1.

This was from the Nexus threads.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] -RotorDemon-:
Did you say.... TRANSMITTER? :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] JRG1392:
I'm so excited if it actually has a transmitter, I didn't know that
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] rhcp011235:
I have not read the kernel sources.

is the radio uncommented? If so, it will work.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] KiNG OMaR:
Yes, yes it is.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] sixtninecat:
Has anyone had anyluck with this since PermaRoot... I cannot get any data connection at work and I miss my Radio?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
It will get figured out prob once CM 6.1 stable drops. It's definately the Kernel!!!! I have a nexus one and it's working thru bluetooth somehow. I can play thru the headphones or the speaker using the headphones as an antena...bluetooth must have to be on to connect the kernel to the app. Not sure but hope it helps!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Esteef:
I know for a fact it has a transmitter because I installed the Sense ROM on my G2 and the FM app worked.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] DToX69:
Theres a difference between FM receiver and transmitter, transmitter is broadcasting pretty much sending music you have on your phone to say your cars FM radio

So I'm assuming you guys dont mean transmitter?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] DJAeroX26:
Would be soo awesome if it can transmit!!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] androidtoy09:
Yeah, I agree. Nokia smart phones have this feature for awhile. HTC should consider it.

Same here, I just picked up one from craigslist for $150 in mint condition with box and everything. I haven't booted back to windows mobile yet. This is the type of phone I have been craving for long long but it never came out for t-mobile. Amazing what this group of devs can do. I used to envy sprint users with the evo, boy am I glad I held off on switching.

Also I have tried 3G, 4G and Wifi. The market just isn't working.

When signing into htcsense does anyone else get this error?.

I have got the phone signed into htcsense by creating an account on the phone but when i try to login via the pc this is all i get.

I receive the verify account email when i sign up using the phone but i cannot verify/login.

If i create an account from the pc same thing happens,receive the verify email but cannot verify/login.

Support told me to try different browsers of which i have tried IE8,firefox and google chrome.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's rubbish I have tried everything. Sometimes it says I have logged in too many times so my accounts locked. I can only make my phone ring sometimes. It sees 200 contacts but gets an error when tries to show them. I delete my account on the phone and add it again and either of those two things never work yet alone phone finder sometimes puts me in the ocean or says its disabled. Can't believe they are showing the ad on tv when it works for some people then the next day it doesn't work. I'm going to wait couple of weeks and hope I don't lose my phone because that service will be no good to me.

Every other thread is a complaint or problem with the G2. It's crazy..
[G2 and Desire Z General] JanetPanic:
Not really; It is actually pretty normal for a new device. "Hey I love my phone and have no problems with it" threads are fairly pointless beyond cheerleading. "I have problem X, does anyone else? Is there a fix?" on the other hand can let you gauge if your problem is wide spread and give an idea as to whether to call support. It also helps people who have not purchased yet get a gauge of potential problems to look for.

Once the initial rush (2 or 3 months) is over and the phone is rooted the complaint threads mostly dry up.

The flipside is that the "I am returning my phone" threads are as pointless as the cheerleading threads.
