Hi,

my hd2 arrived yesterday and now im using this build. I changed from HTC Touch Cruise and its amazing :D

There is one question:

I have to register each MAC i want to use for internet. Somehow i got a different MAC for my Android than Windows Mobile.

Will the MAC change with every build i change?

Can i change the Mac of the Wifi device?

Battery draining solutions

I have tried the solution posted by Spauldio, over at the Sense 0.1v of this build... Here is what he posted:

This worked for me after trying all the other solutions... hope this helps someone.

I will wait for you to complete it. I know you will be careful and put out a well thought out system.

how to transfer contacts

I don't use a SIM card to file contacts.

How can I get my 568 winmo contacts across to the Android?

cheers

emsee
[HD2 Android SD Development] dertester123:
You can try to sync winmo with your google Account. Its done via activesync (Server m.Google.com)

There are guides just Google Form "Windows mobile Google sync "
[HD2 Android SD Development] gencaslan:
Sync them from wm to your google account ..and they will be on android if you sync with your google acc on android. Thats what i did.

[HD2 Android SD Development] damnshah:
you need pim backup and a gmail account...look here

thats why i just use darkstones BUILDS. He does not release very often, but when he does he got things done right. Looking forward to tuesday ;D
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
The build is not perfect. I have tested about 5-6 other highly rated , they all have flaws... :)

either way, what are your configurations :

HSPL

Radio

Windows ROM

Android Booter

SD Card

Block Size

I used Active Sync 4.5 (Windows XP) or Microsoft Mobile Device Center (Vista/7/2008) to get contacts & calendar to Outlook

I have been doing this for 4 years

Now I used MyPhoneExplorer on Android and sync everything from Outlook :)

600 contacts, 3000 calendar entries from 4 years

Anyways, my Android today died at 9% battery remaining

Booted up into Windows Mobile, running checkdisk now

Bunch of file system errors

Repairing them now (I hate it when this happens)

anyone has got their battery report wrongly, and shutdown?

how do I make my Android batterystats restarted. I know we can delete a file though
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
i found this post, however I was in the region of 10% when my phone completely shut down (what was worse, in front of an IPHONE user)

LOL!

anyone else encountered this? anyways my checkdisk results showed that my /Android folder got corrupted (file system errors)

I have restored a backup copy, just before I left home

going to drain to 1% battery and boot up Android next
[HD2 Android SD Development] lohhongkhai:
sorry if this question's been asked before, but I tried searching the whole thread, even google, but produced no result.

I can't charge the battery over 88%, and I see that ppl here say just boot into winmo and then charge it til full.

But I don't want to boot back to WinMo everytime I wanna charge, right?

so is there a fix to this? please provide me a link or a post that points to this solution.thx!

[HD2 Android SD Development] jamessims1:
Data.img

Hi there!

LOVING the android build, very impressed, been using it every day since install.

However, how can you make the data.img file bigger? I'm using the 256mb img file, and I'm using up the space fast. I've spent a week searching high and low as to how to do it, and everything I've tried has failed.

Obv I don't want to create a whole new data store because I've installed loads of apps/imported contacts/emails etcetc.

Would really appreciate any help :)

Thanks!
[HD2 Android SD Development] whycali:
Did you try mounting the sd card?
[HD2 Android SD Development] htcvidi:
Here for example you have two data.img available, 512Mo and 1Go.

http://xdaforums.com/show...74&postcount=1

Save your actual data with TitaniumBakcup and restore after on the new image.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jamessims1:
Might give that a go.

Do you know if it is possible to merely extend the current data.img file from 256mb to say 1gb? :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] pablo71:
After reading these posts i've got to see if that "TASKER" app can do an auto shutdown at 15%, and I can keep a couple $9 Ebay hd2 batteries in my pocket.

I read some weeks ago a post that explained how to do it. I did a search but so far I have not found it. I continue. :)

Thanks again kazido, just got home this morning (truck driver) and followed the instructions above, the 2gb file is on and the phone is back running Android. I'm making periodic test calls to & from the phone to see if that message and lockup re-occur. Hopefully this does and I can stay dedicated to Android. Once I know it's good, back to the fun of reinstalling my apps. :) BTW, I renamed the new 2gb file from "data.img.img" to "data.img" was this correct to do? I renamed the old file to "data.img.old"
[HD2 Android SD Development] DIGItonium:
Not quite sure what I did wrong. The slider made it difficult to get the value I wanted, so I used the command line version to create a 1GB file. It wouldn't boot up, so I went back to the 256MB file.

Other than that, this version is my favorite so far with improved battery life and response. There are very minor issues with data and Wi-Fi, but it's barely bothersome. It's still nice to keep WinMo for work and Android for play. This is also the first time I've tried Launcher Pro with good impressions... will definitely buy it. Gingerbread keyboard is a definite plus. Great contrast and accuracy. I can barely text in WinMo. Looking forward to updates :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] jamessims1:
Thanks for the link htcvidi! :)

I had the same problems. Tried extending the data.img file, but I was always shown errors. :/

I found you can get more accurate size from the slider if you click on the grey space to the left/right of the cursor rather than clicking the movable cursor itself (if that makes sense?)

great first post mate! lol

now make a second post by stating details of your build (as all of us can be different in many ways)

a pointer looks like my signature, while ignoring Quadrant & other things that dont work 4 u yet

and, how are you loading it up will help of course
[HD2 Android SD Development] gwelwhir:
This is the case with my HD2 also.

WinMo MAC starts with 00:23:76 -- this is indeed HTC's OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier)

Android MAC starts with 00:90:4C -- this, belongs to "EPIGRAM, INC" somehow.

Interesting.

sd card not showing

i had alittle problem with my sd card, when i was running this build it loaded fine, but when i ran astro instead of one sdcard folder i found two folders , one named sdcard(empty nothing while it should have had everything) second named sdcard_boot which had all the files that shouldve been in sdcard folder, and on top of android main page there was a reminder that sd card damaged and needs to be formatted, so i went to settings-- sdcard--format was not working and when i unmounted then i was able to click on format--earase everything, now im unable to locate my sd card in two different phones, did i damage it for good and how or is there a way to fix this issue, i would appreciateany help!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
well 1 thing ive learnt, never let your battery drain below 15% in case of an outage

that costed me 1 day of data and even fixing the disk and problems couldnt resolve the problem

hope this gets fixed , at least till about 2% battery before it dies

and charging to 100% is actually, 100% :D

[HD2 Android SD Development] takaros:
Well i have this build about from the begining of 2011(9 days) now and the only reason that keep me away from a nand rom is because i am waiting the nand rom of ds !!

This build its very stable and fast for a every day use making me to forget the wm os.

I have apply the patch for data corruption and i dont have problems even when my hd2 "dies" from baterry.

I dont know if the t nand rom from ds that we all awaiting it will be so fast as the Super RAM but i believe that i will give to her a try!!!

So ds please do your magic we all are awaiting!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
what was your % of battery when it died from battery (on Android)

im trying to identify why mine died and got corrupted
[HD2 Android SD Development] takaros:
Last night was on 6% when my phone is turned off
[HD2 Android SD Development] takaros:
Also do you have apply the patch for data corruption?

See details in the first page.

You must copy a file name newinitrd (you will find it in the first page in a zip file) in the Android folder replacing the old one.

I did that and i do not have any data problems.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
i am already using that patch since the beginning :D

mine died at 9% and yeah, mobile service failed, some apps corrupted with FC (tired repairing them in many ways, fail)

sd card then had file system issues

so, basically, dont risk your battery going too low and shutting down un-expectedly on Android SuperRAM 1.5 :) it just hurts as hell
[HD2 Android SD Development] pablo71:
Tried this today, and have been at 60ma every time I come out of standby -- I think this solution does work, but for me today it did not. It could be a 'settle in' issue though that I botched somehow by turning something else on/off. I'm gonna add this fix to the list I made earlier. No complaints here, these android builds are awesome -- I'm just 'fascinated' that what is causing this drain is a mystery. I wish there was an app that could see 'what the radio is doing.'
[HD2 Android SD Development] takaros:
So i guess i am lucky until now.Ok i will do like you do.I will never again let my battery die i dont want to risk some data corruption.Thanks mate for your advise!!

Is replacing the vender.apk the only way to update the Market? Has anyone had the market update itself automatically?

update the marketplace

see comments on old marketplace

maybe its my location, Malaysia , lol :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] telcobilly:
I installed the 2gb patch yesterday and have seen longer run times on Android before the phone goes to a black screen/freeze-up on a phone call. It's in the hours vs minutes before the patch. I formatted the SD card and put everything back on. My radio is 2.10.50.26, never had any robot voice issues on this build.

Looking for anything else I can try, is anyone running extended times on this build? Going back to WM is punishment! :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android SD Development] twilliamson:
I have exactly the same problem, the work around suggested doesn't fix it. It has also been suggested on the thread to delete the files and copy them across again.

I have tried numerous builds and they all do the same - any suggestions?

1) No THANK YOU Posts. Anyone found doing so on high volume threads will be given as infraction. We have implemented a new THANKS button here at XDA. Use that to convey your gratitude.

2) The first few pages of this thread have already informed us of this build being incredibly fast. Everyone knows it now which means NO more "This is so FAST!" posts.

3) There are several issues with this build, which have come to light over the last 30 pages. Check to see if your problem has been listed (Chances are that 999 out of 1000 are already listed). If it is, then you are not allowed to post asking for a solution to the same problem.

4) STRICTLY NO REQUESTS!

Any discussions in this thread have to be limited to the build provided here. No discussions and arguments about the pros and cons of Sense Builds.

5) NO asking for ETA of the next build.

Any deviation from the above will result in an Infraction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not sure what infraction means in this context, but I really think this thread could do with some ;)

Phone identity issue - clones

Do these builds use the hardware unique identity properly? If not, is there anything we could do to change the defaults.

I have installed several apps that greeted me with a predefined profile when first launched obviously made by someone else. (ex. NinJump, World War)

Not a very big security issue on games but wonder what if a backup / sync app shares the data across all the devices running the build. :confused:

I am new to flash or run Android on HD2 ... after I updated the latest ROM/Radio released at HTC site, I could run your SuperRAM FroYo on my HD2 smootly ... as far, I do not see battery drain issue as many pple posted here or other issues ... running from RAM is a great!

- main advantages of using ROM+RAM version in comparing to RAM only?

you guys are great! many good tips...

winmo for work and android for play .. a good start in 2011!

See if this help ...

I had exactly the same problem ... I couldn't see the green "htc" logo after the above screen ... as I am new to do this, I did not download radio images as posted on the web... what I did was, simply go back to HTC support site to find the latest update for my HD2, I found a new ROM released in Nov.

Radio:	2.15.50.14

ROM:	3.14.04666

... this is an "Asia" release .. you might get a slight different for your region I suppose. ..but after I did that, I follow exactly the same procedure as DS posted, then it works!!! give it a try! :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] xavierh:
No WiFi, 3g, brightness set to auto. I just want to know do the voltage readings are due to normal use or something else.

"ADB" device found on Windows ..

Dear all,

I may need your help again ... I was trying to test "USB Tethering" and "Outlook sync" when I plug in the new Froyo HD2 to Windows XP, a new "ADB" device is found, is this normal? ... I couldn't find the suitable device driver. I found ADB driver is required for Android development purpose... not sure if this is correct, any help is appreciated, thank you!

1. USB Tethering: I followed the instruction to download this "tetherxp.inf" .. but didn't work .. :confused:

2. Outlook data sync: I tried to download "MyPhoneExplorer" ... I found a "client" program on Market ... but when I plug in to WinXP PC via USB, I got same issue that a ADB device is found without a suitable driver. ...

Hi guys,

Ever since I changed to this build, my phone always shuts down when battery reaches 12%. I've reconditioned the phone using guide from q&a forum. But when I reboot in Winmo, the battery went well under 12%. So this has something to do with Android or the build instead of my battery going bad, right? What do you say? Thanks.

Thats exactly what I am doing but when I choose the widget I takes me directly to its configuration options but I do not have an option do anything else

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Someone quoted wrong, but...

current widget is not supposed to do anything else than showing you the options, when you press on it. In the options you select the sample interval and has the option to look in the logfile where each sample consumption is shown. This is all you need to check the battery drain.

immediately after removing the default market (via Titanium Backup), my entire Android faced force closing

did u use the newinitgz file, which prevents corruption?

did you delete the data folder as instructed on 1st post?
[HD2 Android SD Development] marcus.zheng:
In order to draw more attentions of the up coming NAND build, I subject Darkstone release more small updates (plus some unwanted stuff e.g. Chinese Keyboard :D) just like MDJ. Furthermore, provide update log without download link, then i am sure he can boost the hit by 100% at least.

[HD2 Android SD Development] dertester123:
I think its not so nice to ask in this thread for other builds.:cool:

But i think this build is very good and stable. You should not take out the sdcard or let the phone die due to battery empty.

The new things in 2.3 are easy to find with google.

Atm for normal user 2.2 is recommended, because its stable and very optimized. 2.3 is just at the beginning of development, so you should know which fits you more. The "looks" can be changed with themes and launcher apps as you like.
