Mini How to install

I had some pm's for help install this ..so here is a small guide....

THIS IS FOR SD CARD SETUP AND RUNS FROM WINMO 6.5

Ok... m8 ... lets start over...

1. Make sure you have 3 partitions in your sd card...

For a 8gb sd card make them like this

a. Fat32 -6.0 gb (if you have biger card make this one bigger and the other stay the same)

b. Ext4 - 1.0 gb

c. Linux swap 150-250mb

Delete any previous files froma android builds that you may have in the SD CArd

If you dont know how to partiton search the thread .. a lot of post with instructions.

2. Download the 3.3 build from the first page and extract them in the root of your SD cart to the folder Desire_DL.

The name MUST be exactly the same...

3. Delete the file data.img from that folder .

4. Extract my attached rar and copy the contents to the SD Card in the folder Desire_DL. (both the folder Update_DL and the file config.txt.

5. Start Android.....(start CLRCAD.exe -- nothing to see when started and then haret.exe...)

6... wait until it boots. If stop remove the battery and retry to start android (maybe you need to do this 2-3 times until it boots)

7.

THIS IS IMPORTAND

....After the first boot go to menu and run ROM Manager and select Fix Permissions.. and when it finnish Shutdown the device.

8. Open the file config.txt from SD Card and remove the last line format_ext4=1 ...save th file and restart android...

9. Some times after a restart you many need to try again if it stack in HTC logo.

I hope this helps

Has anyone come up with a MAGLAR solution? I really want to try 3.3 out. I missed out on 3.2. =(

Also, for those who have 3.3 running, has the DHD/DZ streaming issue been fixed? Can we watch SPBTV?

P.S. What are fly animations?
[HD2 Android SD Development] bteljuice:
Someone posted this earlier, but I forgot who (if you find the post, please let me know to link it).

For MADLGR, to make 3.3 running, just copy the "recommended.config.txt.MADLGR" (renamed it config.txt) and the "initrd.gz" from the 3.2 build and it will work perfectly.

thanks to Dandiest for this build and "MrX" for the temporary work around.

I noticed few problem with v3.3, here are the list

1. Data connection icon dont show any color when there is upload or dload activities.

2. Market still now working even after clear data on setting/application.

3. twice my sms delayed for 22 minutes.

Anybody facing the same problem?
[HD2 Android SD Development] abima80:
Are u sure ur market got issue or ur data connection got issue? For me if the arrow appear only for few time, thats mean ur data connection is the problem, not market. If that so, u can try to change ur ppp or rmnet connection...

Just my 2 cent observation.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Bighardy:
The ADDITIONAL entries are only working with H8.6.

At first you must change to kernel H8.6 and it is important to copy the zImage also in Desire_DL on sdcard.

You must ADD the bt.mac=yo:ur:ma:ca:dd:re wifi.mac=yo:ur:ma:ca:dd:re behind nand_boot=0 and before the "

After a reboot it should work.

[HD2 Android SD Development] MerLinh:
Try to use the initrd.gz from the previous version
[HD2 Android SD Development] mav78g:
All working for me (WM 6.5, booting Android from Desire_DL using Exceller bootmgr)

- Wifi working (no mod of mac required, did need to add the mac of the phone to my broadband router Access control list),

- Market working (after using the Update_DL)

- very quick (using a ext4 data partition for data (SD 2 Partitions FAT32 and ext4).

To get this working I decided to have a fresh start, so formated the SD with the SD Formatter (link in my Sig) used Paragon Partition Manager to shrink the FAT32 partition on my SD to allow me to create a 1GB ext4 partition on the end of my SD (paragon also formated the partition as ext4), copied the V3.3 final files to SD, added the Update_DL to root of SD.

And booted all is well and quick (after couple of manual reboots as normal).

Used following Config.txt

Working DATA off ext4 Config

===============================

DL DesireZ 3.3 final

===============================

boot_mode=1

ppp_mode=1

gps_zone=uk

I also did a test with a blank data.img (1G blank from link on first page) and it worked by just adding an additional entry to my config.txt

Working data.img in the Desire_DL folder

===============================

DL DesireZ 3.3 final

===============================

boot_mode=1

ppp_mode=1

gps_zone=uk

data_img=1

Please note I was having booting issues so in addition to formatting my SD I also did a Hard Rest on my WM 6.5 which solved the booting issue, if you are having probs might be worth hard reset WM 6.5 and format SD
[HD2 Android SD Development] my969:
yes, I tried installing this. It installed fine and everything seems to be working well but I keep getting one error : Not enough storage space.

I have a 16GB card with 975 mb space free.

I have winmo6.5 and deleted the config.txt file while booting android.

I can't download anything from market place because of the above error

v3.3

111.-HTC Sync does not work: Someone see that v3.3 is configured as a T-Mobile G2 in Phone idendity.

222.-Button savior does not work for parameter and back?

333.-Migrate to Hastarin 8.6, (improve performance) but Data network does not work. It shows both arrows but they dont blink and connection is dead.

Apart these issues, v3.3 is smooth and a good build but cannot be used daily.

I am Magldr v1.12 with WP7 running Nand. SD card is 16GB class 10. ~8gb Fat32, 8GB for WP7.

Any solution for these pb's?
[HD2 Android SD Development] joyqing:
wouldn't access internet via GPRS/HSDPA if change kernel to H8.6, but wifi works, i don't know why:confused:

i like H8.6 very much because it can give us high performance.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bighardy:
That's crazy, I changed to H8.6, used only the Update_DL-part from bugfix.market&magldr, added bt.mac and wifi.mac in startup.txt and for me is nearly everything working.

Wifi works, Gprs/3G/HSDPA works, coloured Arrows are blinking, Market download works. I don't know if HTC-sync works, because I'm not using it.

Nearly, because LED-notification is not working.

And I am not able to change modelnumber T-Mobile G2 to DesireZ.

I am starting from SD in WinMo with EBL.

[HD2 Android SD Development] ijsklont:
Anyone experiencing problems with the fat32 partition after installing v3.3?

I am using a 8GB Sandisk (2048 ext4, 512 ext4 and the rest for FAT32) but i keep getting now the message that the SD card is empty not readable or read-only, i need to reboot the HD2 for the SDcard to get working again.

When i reboot the HD2 and go to the sdcard i getting the errors again, but when i reboot and hook the HD2 to my computer i dont have any problems.
[HD2 Android SD Development] emottier:
Crazy?

You are WinMo, i am Magldr. This might be the pb.

Does somebody have Magldr v3.3 Data Internet working?
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
Update:

I have made a new update package which is for:

1. fixing some SD boot issue.

2. market download

3. wifi

4. data stability.

5. possible issue of data transfer between mobile with pc.

6. oh, I'm installing the button savior now to have a try. :)

OK, it's working except the return, problem is that button savior use the "input key event 4 " which may have different definition in DesireZ, you can try to replace the files under /system/usr/keylayout or /system/usr/keychars with proper one, but I don't have time to look into it.

I have tested all the above, and even tried the famous 3 partitions(1st fat32, 2nd ext4, 3rd ext4), actually, i found it much faster than data.img.

I will flash MAGLDR now to try the load from magldr, if no further issue, let's upgrade to build v3.4 and initrd v2.6 :D

edit1. no enough battery, didn't allow me flash, has to wait to charge :(

take only the lib files ( don't take the framework as it is incompatible with Z build 1.72, and the font file is not eye candy :) )

add the lib files manually to root, system, lib ( after deleting the shortcuts first which refer to the squashed system file - libskia, libwebcore )

I've installed 3.3 and I think it's great (especially after the market fix!).

Without the additional entries in the startup.txt the mac-addresses not identical with the mac-addresses under winmo. If your real mac-addresses are configured in a router with mac-filter or in a dhcp-server to get always the same IP, then will this not work with out the entries in startup.txt.

I did check and notice my real mac-addresses for bt and wifi under winmo, added them in startup.txt and everything is working now.

Thanks Dandiest, keep it up and can't wait for the GB 2.3.2 version... anyone??
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
What did I do wrong????

I dowloaded 3.3 and extracted contents to pc. Then I copied Desire_DL folder to the root of my sd. I then took mt data.img from a previous rom and overwrote the data.img file within the folder. then proceeded and selected this install through EBL coz I now have 2 android roms in the sd. And voila!!! Booted this rom and all looks ok. even Market is alright and all my apps and settings from my previous rom are all there. Only thing missing is Sim Tool Kit (STK Tools).

Note I have absolutely no partitions in my sd card - a San Disk 8 gig Class 4.

So did I do anything wrong? ;) Why does everything seem to work ok yet I am seeing all manner of agony by people who have installed this rom. :eek:
[HD2 Android SD Development] veryh2o:
Ahh, i see. i also added the entry to my startup and everything seems ok now. thanks.

I am not sure about the part How To Install indicated above. Extracted Upgrade 3.4 has only 2 files of about 1.7 mb - Desire_DL and Update_DL.

Thank you D! (I sent a contribution to your beer account. #9NV02209AW5888008)

I'm curious about the speed being faster when using partitions instead of using data.img... I'm on WM6.5 and like the data.img method because it's very easy to backup the Android build (copy SD card content to PC). But if the "ext4-method" is "much faster than data.img" of course I want to test it. Are there any instructions on how to use the "ext4-method" when launching from WM6.5??

Right back where I was yesterday morning. Almost done copying of data.img. Already copied the Market patch(the one that caused a reboot loop, but without the Desire_DL folder). From what I tried yesterday, I had no luck installing the stock framework, did anyone succeed with that?

it's same as nand build, there are a lot of discussion about it in my nand thread, and you can also refer to this step by step http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10999799&postcount=2056
