That's not it, when I leave home for work (and I leave my home WLAN network) and arrive at work at about half an hour later I still don't have a valid data connection until I manuall reconnect it. Never experienced any delay with WM to be honest (with WM it takes about 10 seconds to switch). Will try to test the ppp_mode though, see if that makes any difference.

I do have less battery drain with the vdd_mode=-50 setting, thank you for that.

Nick

P.S. It does not matter how I boot from WM, with or without WLAN, data or airplane mode enabled. Checked them all, no differences for the data problem.

Let me rephrase my question. Only about 10% of my apartment gets 3G signal, the rest of the apartment gets 2G, but not 3G. This leads to a lot of dropped calls since the phone is constantly trying to stay in 3G. My girlfriend has a T-Mobile G2, and under Settings->Wireless & Networks->Mobile Networks there is an option to select 2G mode only. Does this build have the same option, or can anyone suggest a different way of fixing my problem? Thanks for the help.
[HD2 Android SD Development] darkony:
there is gsm mode only, under settings/wireless&networks/mobile networks, if thats the same thing

I change v3.4 to 4.1 with old data.img without problem, but I can start 4.31.44.12 only with new clean data.img

But for me 4.31 is not so good, as 3.5. I have many freezes on Sense desktop and in other programs, working fine on 3.5. And 5-10 mA on idle. On 3.5 and 4.1 I have 3-4 mA on idle. 4.1 is not so stable, as 3.5. May be it was because I use old data.img on 4.1

So I roll back to 3.5, but I want add very usefull panel with wifi,BT,light,etc switches as in 4.xx version
[HD2 Android SD Development] coolfire:
Tried 4.32xxxx with my extended battery, and though the stock freak kernel worked, the values reported by the system were not accurate - showed too much drain in droid, but normal values in winmo. Trying with standard battery now.:D

*Update: HD2 standard original battery reflected actual drainage, as expected, but drain is similar to Rafpigna's RafDroidHD - losing about 10% over a period of 6 hours overnight on standby. Everything else works perfect though.

I'm using 4.31.44.12 with DLZ_update_20110307-2034 running from SD.

Also reported above the preview after foto capturing is not working.

And there is no shutter sound.

How can I change the Wifi-Mac-address to the real mac-address from the device ?

The fix by terabite is not working.

The speed and the feeling are awesome.

The fastest android I have ever seen.

If the Mac-address could be changed, it would be perfect for me.

Does anyone have any ideas ?

[HD2 Android SD Development] colossus_r:
M8... if i am not mistaken you must edit the startup.txt file like this

set mtype 2524
set ramaddr 0x11800000
set ramsize 0x1e400000
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set initrd_offset 0x00a00000
set cmdline "rel_path=Desire_DL nand_boot=0 [B]wifi.mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx[/B]"
boot

You must ad the bolded entry wifi.mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx and put your mac address in the xx places.

Notice the space after nand_boot=0..... After reboot must be OK.

Please report back if its working

I have 16GB SD but my Internal storage is only 459MB how i can make it lager is that possible ( Like 4GB )....installed DL.DesireHD.ARA.v1.1 :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bighardy:
m8 ... you are mistaken. This entry wifi.mac is only working with hastarin 8.6 kernel.

With adding bt.mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx you can change the bt-mac to your real bt-mac-address, but wifi.mac is not working.

The way terabite did, was to change the mac-address in a file named calibration.

This files exist in \etc, \system\etc and \proc. But I'm not able to change the files permantly.

That and the coloured arrows were the reason, why I always switched to h8.6.

But now the arrows are working, mobile data also and because of these things are working I try to find out a way to change the wifi-mac-address.

But thanks for your reply.

Hardy
[HD2 Android SD Development] colossus_r:
Ok...i never change my mac so...i dont realy if this working only in hastarin kernel...

But...

What do you mean you cant change the files permantly ???

Did you try to do it with droid-explorer??? Copy to pc, edit and copy them back to device ????

Why this is not working ???

EDIT:

I just put together an update folder for the MAC ADDRESS change...

Just open with notepad+ (or any linux capable text editor) the 3 calibration files and put there your mac address. Save and copy the Update_DL folder to the root of your sd card and reboot.

Just let me know if this is working for you
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bighardy:
I tried it with ghost commander in root mode.

But after shutdown and restart android the "wrong" wifi-mac-address appeared again.

I tried it also per Update_DL, but after booting the wrong wifi-mac-address appeared again.

I must use the real wifi-mac-address, because it is registered in several routers.

Hardy
[HD2 Android SD Development] colossus_r:
try the update i post above ...and please report back

Edit

Bighardy .....DID this work ?????
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bighardy:
EXACTLY the same what I tried also, but no success.

But I will try it again.

It would be perfect if dandiest or freak would also read the wifi.mac from startup.txt and not only the bt.mac. (similar to H8.6)

is there an option to disable home screen rotation?

i know i can use another rosie but dandiest said it wouldnt be same as the re-compiled one.

also it doesnt rotate the widgets correctly, they remain in their portrait layout and sometimes landscape layout, and you have to reload the widget..

ok thanks for this link to the post...

But i would like to rename Desire_DL directroy to Android directory.

If i do this i won't be abble to update the Kernel, right?

Why do we need to update the kernel?

Another solution:

Can i keep the name Desire_DL dir and do the update and after changing the name of the directory?

Sorry in advance.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Agoattamer:
You can change the Folder to "Android". But you must also make a change in the startup.txt too. Change this line set cmdline "rel_path=Desire_DL nand_boot=0" to set cmdline "rel_path=Android nand_boot=0"

If you then want to do the updates in the future you will have to do them manually like we used to.

Ok but regarding the point 6 from colossus_r's post

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11987509&postcount=4273

How the update using Upate_DL will know if it is "Android" dir or Desire_DL dir?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Agoattamer:
Do you know how to update the files manually? If you do not know how to update the files manually, why not just keep the folder named Desire_DL? Is it that difficult to run clrcad and haret manually that you have to go through all this just for a bootloader I am guessing.
[HD2 Android SD Development] fana75:

No it is ok to run the 2 fils manually but it doesn't work....

I donwload rundroid.exe and everything is ok now...

I still have questions:

- Adding a AndroidApps into Desire_DL dir doesn't wok for automatic installation. Is there another solution?

- using the Updat_DL methode fount on XDA to change the MAC adress in oder to have the same as for windows doesn't work also

- Is the config.txt checked at each powerOn? In fact i respect what was indicated by colossus_r (=" do not change the config.txt provided by at the first powerOn) but i would like to go to a 1Go data.img then for the 3rd powerOn i changed the config.txt for the following:

Hi m8...

Did you boot the build at all??? or you boot ok and then you want to run with this config.txt ???

This setting data_size=1024M works ONLY in the first boot..

It does not change the size of and already made data file...

Data.img size its 512mb by default...if you started the build then ....

You can change the size of the data.img by using this app here...

[HD2 Android SD Development] colossus_r:
What widgets??? Not all of them are able to rotate !!!!!!!!!!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] Agoattamer:
If you have a data.img already in the desire_dl folder it will not make a new one. Also lose the "M" after the 1024. It is not needed and may cause issues.

This may work as this is what Dandiest has included in the 4.32 download. Put the "AndroidApps" folder in an "Update_DL" folder. Place that "Update_DL" folder on the root of the card. If it still needs a script someone else will have to help with that.

Setting VDD=-50 wants to say that you undervolt the CPU?

Stability issue vs Angry Birds

I have stability issue with DL Desire v4.32.

When I set VDD=-50 in config I am not able to play with Angry Birds - I encountered freezes with device restart (just after few minutes of play). When I remove the VDD=-50 from config it is better but freezes and restarts still happen (rarely but happen).

Do you have also such problems? Is there any fix to improve the stability?
[HD2 Android SD Development] colossus_r:
I dont have the tech experties to backup this but i am pretty shure that undervolting the cpu its not a risk ...

When you send less volts to a device you cant harm it...

The only thing you can cause is the device to stop working until you resent the proper volts...

Its not like we overvolting.... that will be a problem ..maybe...

So IMO undervolting its not a prob...its saves some more battery juise...

This Rom (or any other) does' not overclock the CPU...

The overclocking is done by an app called SetCPU...

Also its hard to accept that undervolting the cpu has any impact on playing AngyBirds...

Those are my 2c on this..

colossus

Hi m8

Exept from angrybirds ...Do you have stability problems when running the desice in everyday use ???
[HD2 Android SD Development] bigu1975:
During normal use I didn't find any stability issues at all. For daily use it is stable like the rock. Problem has been noticed during playing Angry Birds (this is the only game which is installed on my phone). Angry Birds was working without problems on desire 3.x series. This is a huge problem for my daughter ;)

I think it may be related to VDD=-50 settings - when the CPU is undervolted it may be less stable. I use 1228800 CPU frequency. I will try to set lower frequency and then play with Birds...

Of course it is not a problem Angry Birds is causing instability but I think it may be general issue when the phone is under heavy load it becomes unstable...
