yes you can. Download a little app from this page and you can expand your existing data.img without losing anything.

jcsy: have you seen any problems with SOD after ending a call? Sometimes I have to wait up to a couple of minutes before the screen comes back on..

resizing as already pointed out, or moving the app from internal to SD memory under Applications

This runs so spectacularly I see no reason to be sad that updates will be slow... I've had this android build for about two weeks now. I have no issues with stability; the only kink I've discovered is sometimes, you need to reboot to see things downloaded to the SD card.
[HD2 Android SD Development] biker14:
patch?

Hi, I hope someone can help me to clarify this one:

on the first post there's a link to a file that prevents data corruption. But then on the log for the changes of v1.5 says that the data corruption is fixed...?

So...do I have to apply the patch or not? and if so, to where do I copy the newinitrd.cz file?

Thanks for the help in advance!
[HD2 Android SD Development] boomboomer:
I applied the patch anyway (what's the harm?) the file goes in the Android folder of your SD card but rename it as per the instructions.
[HD2 Android SD Development] bigx86:
I have a huge problem and i have been searching for a solution for 2 hours now. Im dualbooting WP7 and Android. I did all according to instructions, but Android is freezing after 2 or 3 seconds upon first boot. I can unlock the keylock, then it freezes totally..........PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE HELP ME SOLVE THIS....i looked all over the internet to solve this......anyone had the same issue?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
in 3 days my android superam1.5 build crashed twice and rebooted into infinite FORCE CLOSES

well, i have a certain conclusion which is to not move apps between sd card / phone in any manner

in both occurances, I used "shutdown" instead of reboot, but I highly doubt that was the case.

in the 1st occurance, I cleared market data and cache, which I suspect can be a massive contributor to the problem.

now I have to restore a backup of Android & Android.secure which was 7 days ago.

oh FML~!
[HD2 Android SD Development] xuix:
This build is realy great, but need to be updated because it's too much fragile... i miss darkstone... now i use cm7 gingerbuild (americandroid) and i never had my android broken same as with this froyobuild (superRam 1.5)... boot time is not the same sure.

i want a dailyuse android and this superRam build cannot give it to me...

hope we see an update soon
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
i have also concluded that uninstalling apps and even installing apps might cause the build completely.

with hastarin 8.6 which allows overclocking to 1.2ghz, I believe that could be another culprit

I will not overclock and see how it works out and I will use "reboots" from now on to see if power off does kill the build, which I require some feedback from other users
[HD2 Android SD Development] yonu:
I know this has been covered but what is the trick to get better than around 8.5 hrs of battery life?

Thanks,

[HD2 Android SD Development] .hide:
average battery i left after 12hours is approx 25% left. with total of 1-2 hours of watapp, 30mins of phone call and 30-45 mins of surfing like facebook twitter. idling kept at 7mAh.
[HD2 Android SD Development] damnshah:
hey guys....

im not sure if this is new, but ive unearthed a random glitch...when i pick up certain calls using the slide button, it goes on hold automatically...anyone else facing this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bazzz66:
4-8 sec. delay between answering the call and talking

I got recently a new (first) problem.

When someone calls me my phone rings and I pick up as usual.

Then the ring sound stops and the screen does not change to ”answered call”. At this moment everything is quiet on the phone and all the hardware buttons light up slowly (blink)

Then after 4-8 seconds the caller can hear me.

When I ask the caller if they noticed something weird at the other end, the tell me the phone acted normal.

So it is very annoying that you have a delay between picking up and talking to someone, but the other end does not seem to notice it.

Anyone else had this problem, does someone know how to solve it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
on another note, im getting random total freezes and a battery full is the only way 2 recover

this happens with wireless tether app and using HSPDA

or running a speedtest from the speedtest.net app very often
[HD2 Android SD Development] henriksi:
Data connection issue

I'm having some problem with the data connection over the mobile network when trying to use this outside wifi-range. Even though I have it activated (obviously), it won't connect, and doesn't seem to try to connect at all.

I believe the problem started after changing the kernel, now running the hastarin 8.6 tytung or whatever, has anybody else done this and observing the same problem?

For jcsy: I changed the kernel after reading one of your earlier posts on this thread, do you think it's responsible for this issue?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
i experienced this issue mostly with Hastarin Custom in fact

Data over Hastarin Custom was unstable and I never turn on WIFI together with 3G at the same time. Selectively make my specific decisions rather than letting Android control that

Well, Data drops and Data disconnection (unable to connect again after) happens ALOT on Hastarin Custom and running Speed Test (app)

After swapping over to 8.6, I noticed no data drops and only data disconnects when running speed test app

reading multiple Data RMNET/PPP builds advice on Speed Test (app) says that the app itself is bugged at times and causes permanent disconnection (airplane wont even save you) and a total reboot is required.

Technically, I would say Hastarin 8.6 is much better, however Wireless Tether (app) recently has been screwing with me massively and causes serious severe HANGs

help

after booting it hangs at “jumping to kernel (custom)” in the android folder theres not even a init..am i doing something wrong?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jagr:
i managed to get it working now. left it in the android folder. first time running android, thought all had to be in root.

another problem, sound seems to stop working after a while. anyone has this issue? it seems to happen with several other ROMS i tried as well.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Dblfstr:
It is possible that you have done something wrong. Did you copy the android folder to the root of your SD card... (Is this your first android build?)

I hate to ask the same n00b questions if you have already tried the obvious solutions.

So, you tell me what you did and maybe I can help then.
[HD2 Android SD Development] raysacr:
I love the build. But for me, battery drainage is VERY erratic. I can never get a stable sub-10mah drainage. Sometimes it stays at 70mah drainage too, and I would have to restart. And this is with BT, wifi, and data turned off. On other builds, I usually leave BT and data on all the time and my drainage would be 6-7mah.

Another issue is data speed is quite slow even on HSPDA. And MMS does NOT work.
[HD2 Android SD Development] xdabart:
Data connection

I have been using this build for almost a day now, i also noticed data connection (3G) getting lost, upto the point where i had to reboot to get it back up.

This only seems to happen after using Wifi for a while, i had the same thing with the Desire HD builds i have tried sofar...
[HD2 Android SD Development] domenukk:
Nope sir.

It only copys /system partition, however every app you install is still started from sd card.

It would be quite nice to choose which apps /files to start from sdcard and wich from ram. (for example you won't need the setup wizard to be stuck in ram... it can easily load from sdcard if needed)... like this it would be even possible to boot (most parts of) a desire hd rom from ram.

there's a whole new world of experiments opening for rom cooks. :D

exiting times!

fun fact: on g1 we tried to swap ram to sdcard, now we are able to get the whole system partition on the ram...

hardware keys?

Set up on my girlfriend's HD2, first time working with a Leo. I was surprised at how easy it is to set up and run android on this phone. So far most features are working as promised. One glaring issue, 'Phone' and 'Home' hardware keys aren't responsive. Sorry to bug you guys if this is a know issue with the HD2 but I couldn't find any reference to the problem on the forum. Using latest stock Leo rom and stock SuperRAM v1.
[HD2 Android SD Development] lukesan:
I wouldn't use this build for your girlfriend (if you like her).

Try to use one that isn't as experimental as this one.

Hint: check for the ones with the most replies in a thread. Most of the times that means that most things have been sorted out.

I tried to search over and over, but the search feature is always down. Maybe someone can help me out. I've run Superram a few times now and it runs perfect for about a month. After about a month messaging won't work anymore. I install and launch for the first time then shutdown. get back into windows and replace the data.img with a new one from the original download. I then load Android again and then shut it down. After this I get back into windows and replace the initrd file with the patch file and rename it newinitrd. Again I load Android. After this I shut Android back down and replace the data.img. Then when I load Android it won't start. Any break down of how this is supposed to go? I tried all sorts of things to make it work but the only way I can is by just replacing the data.img one time and running with it from there. This usually ends in messaging failure at some point. Any help? Thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jadrobe:

deadmind
[HD2 Android SD Development] corradolvr:
I get what you're saying, but the patch and data.img stuff is supposed to prevent corruption. I just want to know if I'm performing the install properly to avoid data corruption. I've been doing fresh installs about every 3-4 weeks. I also have been trying this build with no extra apps. Also, does anybody know if the initrd file that is the patch, is already included in the latest download? I replaced it anyway and then also replaced my data.img. Is this needed?
[HD2 Android SD Development] sblar:
The latest download does *not* include the patch so you will need to patch it yourself.

Large Database

I have been running this for months without a problem - yesterday I installed an app with a large database. The battery quickly depleted and when I charged and rebooted, running android only gave a blank screen...

...had to do a fresh install (without the new app).

Did I exceed the max data img size?? :confused:

One of the reasons I like the SD version - Windows is always there ICE
[HD2 Android SD Development] rodosman:
please can you tell me how to have more space for apps?

what is the cause of this? many applications on the 1GB data.img which requires time to uncompress and etc?

hey all I am hoping someone can help me out out of the blue today my gmail started crashing on open with process com.google.android.gm force close.

Thanks,

[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
try clearing everything related to google, except MARKET (IMPORTANT!)

i had the same problem when my 1.5 crashed in the middle of boot up

i cleared Contacts (have to sync again) and gmail and email and gtalk and everything and rebooted

marketplace cant be cleared, be reminded and clearing the google account requires hard reset so thats wrong as well

1 running of MAGLDR and another running off WINDOWS 6.5 ENERGY

both the same /Android SUPERRAM1.5 folders (copy pasted from each other)

another thing is they are using the same files from the SD card and I am guessing, the same block size as well. I need to check this out

Hello

I've been using SuperRam since i first put android on my hd2 and very happy with it. Thanks to all for the tips on charging etc.

One problem which i can't seem to get round is i have a sony errison bluetooth headset (this one)

I've tried pairing it but on scanning it doesn't find it nor if i make the phone discoverable the headset doesn't pair.

The headset works perfect in Windows and bluetooth does work on android as i've transferred files between other phones using bluetooth.

Any ideas???

install

I was new to all this 3 months ago. I followed the guides in the thread below to prepare my HD2 for Android.

I can honestly say I can install any build listed in these forums and it will boot up first time every time, stability etc of course depends on the builders fixes etc.

My point is this...if you are having boot problems take the time to go through the steps in the thread and it really will help.

Good luck

LED Notification ?

Hi all,

I still have two little problems with this build:

1.) LED notification still doesn't work yet?!

2.) The touchscreen is too sensitive. I had this problem with WinMo 6.5 but there you can use a registry hack to decrease the sensitivity of the screen. Is there anything under android to decrease touchscreen sensitivity?

with Google Maps 5.3 out, i have downloaded and attempted to install

It just keeps INSTALLING....

anyone managed to update?
[HD2 Android SD Development] EngineerMind:
Try this,

1) Boot into WM.

2) Delete the "com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk" file from the \Android\root\data\app directory on your storage card.

3) Boot into android.

4) Use Titanium backup pro (has trial version) and find Google maps in list of apps, tap on it and select "Uninstall!".

5) Reboot phone into wm, then into android again.

6) Make sure google maps is no where to be seen (no icon in apps menu and titanium backup no longer lists it.)

7) Now install the newest version of google maps from the market.

thanks for your effort !

Problems with market update

Hi

Just wanted to share a solution to a problem that I have had a couple of times and always had to do a new fresh install to solve.

When updating an installed app in Market, the update would hang forever. An attempt to cancel the update, resulted in a FC on Market.

The solution:

Using Titanium backup, click on Market application and the click "Delete data". DONT remove Market app. only data. After that all installed apps can be updated again :)

on SUPERAM1.5-

i notice that while running 4KB or 8KB block size, my android would freeze for no reason during any read/write activity (16GB)

i formatted back to 32KB block size and was perfectly fine !

anyways this build would still remain as one of the leading builds on XDA SD category for speed
[HD2 Android SD Development] boonbing:
Totally agree... unless I can get the smoothness similar to superRam on GB... else I'm sticking to this. Really hope to see Darkstone back to upgrade this soon.
[HD2 Android SD Development] EngineerMind:
I also agree - only with the speed of this build is it even worth running android on my HD2.

The *only* thing I wish this build had was the bluetooth high standby battery drain fix that was released a few weeks ago.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jadrobe:
looking back, i agree with y'all. best in speed, response, smoothness etc etc. name it, it delivers.

my issues with this build are:

bad call reception. ran 2 builds and called the same person, in the same position as i was standing under the antenna of the provider. On this build i sounded muffled - obviously unclear sounding to the other end

fluctuating batt standby. sometimes less than 10mA, sometimes 60mA ( i hate restarting)

built in apps are hard to update (market specifically)

but what i love about this build is the boot speed! 30 seconds BAM!

yup. can't wait for DS to come back with a GB RAM build.
