What was it you were referring to specifically in that thread? Was it the lights.qsd8k.so fix?
[HD2 Android SD Development] le_cactus:
Hi Dandiest,

Please do, we are waiting for it! With WP7 I can't use NAND and really need your SD build. I'm still on the v0.3.1n build, and that in itself proves you cook up near perfect roms!

Yesterday I tried the 2.2 (actualy 2.1?) build but even with the bugfix I had problems of some forced closes and it didn't seem as stable as the v0.3.1n. So yeah, I'm really looking forward to the 2.5 build. Please hurry :) (j/k)

Cheers,

hi,

this build won't start on my hd2. :confused:

i extracted the file and copied over all the files inside the desire_z folder, but after launching CLRCAD.exe and then haret.exe (or tap "launch andriod" in wm, energy rom) the phone reboots, but restarts after ~30secs in the "htc" screen.

i had 2 different android versions on my hd2 before, both started normally.

i deleted all the android folders on the sd before, and have 3-4gb free on my sd card.

i have hspl 2.08 and radio 2.14.50.04.

any ideas?
[HD2 Android SD Development] S4M33R:
Hey, i get a htc screen, tried to download the 1gb data img..... but its 177kb!! so im guessing it needs re uplaoding?

am i missing something or is their another link somewhere?

thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] vicai:
dont worry, thats the way it should be .. when you un-7z it, you'll get data.img of 1.232.072.704bytes, ie 1,14GB
[HD2 Android SD Development] toma62:

[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
No, instead, I worked overnight till now to re-develop a new initrd for SD just like what I have done for nand, not easy.
[HD2 Android SD Development] majorplayer88:
If you're launching Android using the app in Tools of the energy Rom, then you have 2 make sure you have renamed your folder from desire_z to Android. And you also have 2 edit the startup text file where it says desire_z, do the same as above. Otherwise using that app will not make it work. The only other workaround is to navigate to the folder using file explorer and manually launch CLRCAD.exe and haret.exe.

It should be working fine, just downloaded the 2.2 update a couple of hours back and it's up and running :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] kanesw:
I have this problem too :confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] Grumps:
Ok this is what i got

Dloaded 2.1 and tried it with win 6.5. but didnt work(just stuck on green HTC) Applied the fix to make it 2.2 ran it from sd with win 6.5.5 and it works fine.

- tried with 2 gig card and its superfast

-tried with 16gig card and its still superfast

Loaded magldr and wp7 and it wouldnt start.

Took the 2.1 without the patch and it works fine.

- Ran it with 2gig card and its superfast

- ran it with 16gig card and its slow

Applied 2.2 fix wouldnt work so i applied the " -- -d /dev/smd0 nand_init" fix and it started up but then i get no phone network.

So the only solution is to run it with wp7 and 2 gig card because its awfully slow on the 16 gig card - no idea why.

Any ideas how to make the 2.2 work with the " -- -d /dev/smd0 nand_init" fix and make the phone see my sin/network?
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
update:

Just make the new initrd working, wonderful. now, SD user can even enjoy all the ext4 features I have developed for my Nand version(but have to use MDJ 10 kernal, as 8.6 can not support ext4), moreover, can also use the same approach for config the ppp/rmnet and gps_zone setting.

I have added another parameter dedicated for SD, maglr_load, if set it to 1, will boot from MAGLR.

can refer to my Nand thread for all the features.

another special for SD is, I have coded in the coveter for auto-convert my nand img into ext2. but you have to bear the long process time for the 1st time.

I'm still testing it now, because can load from MAGLR and use the same ext4, I can not even figure out where boot from, may upload it tomorrow. :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] vlad48:
Thanks for this update Dan! Please if you have time can you put some light on using ext4 and MDJay's 10 kernel pros, because I can really live without them and use Hastarin 8.6 (all of my previous attempts of using MDJ 10 kernel brought me only to more sluggishness of your SD version).

Thanks a lot Dan for your build is the best one right now for dual booting WP7+Android SD and I hope God bless you for not giving up on SD build Thanks a million for your gifts.:D
[HD2 Android SD Development] ageell2004:
how to install desire z's Location then? in had download the "removed apps in 2.1" and extract to the folder name "android" but it wont install. then i tried out to the folder "desire z" but it crash my whole android....

i cant make the voice search working too. hmm...
[HD2 Android SD Development] vicai:
you'll probably start from formating sd card, so copy the desire_z folder onto the card, OVERWRITE the dezire_z folder with updates over it, and copy the folders from removed apps into that, so apps should be in:

sdcard/desire_z/root/system/app/*.apk

so when you first start the droid, after initial "install" and setup, apps would be there.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ageell2004:
i guess i know whats the problem. i updated to v2.2 before apply the removed patch which is v2.1.

now everythings work great after i apply the patch b4 update to v2.2

[HD2 Android SD Development] Grumps:
2.2 doesnt work witho magldr try 2.1. or you can load 2.2 but then have to apply the " -- -d /dev/smd0 nand_init change in the init file but when i did that i had no network.

So for now easiest is to just use 2.1
[HD2 Android SD Development] bteljuice:
Thank you so much for the info.

Guess will have to wait for tomorrow till Dand releases the new nice update :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] Bighardy:
Hi Dan,

you did with SD v2.2 a very, very, very good job.

After adding bt.mac and wifi.mac into the startup.txt nearly everything is working.

Nearly everything, because LED-Notification is not working.

The workaround booting with external power until android ist started doesn't change anything.

If this bug would be fixed in the next version, your build would be perfect for me.

THANKS for your hard and very good work.

[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
OK, I need beta testers for testing my crazy ideas,

now only test the new Initrd, with the following features:

boot_mode ; 0 for nand, 1 for SD, 2 for MALRD

swap_mode; 1 for using the 3rd partition on SD, 2 for using vfat FS on Nand. (this will only be activated when nand_data=1)

so you have to partition you sd as this:１st Fat32, 2nd Ext4, 3rd swap.

for the swap, less than 100M should be enough.

for 1st installation, need to set the format_ext4=1, the 2nd swap partition will be automatically formated with ext4 for initializing

for SD, if put only my nand system.img in the folder, it will be automatically converted to ext2, but, yes, will take some time.

for SD, can also enjoy all the feature for ext4 except the swap_mode 2.

If all the functions test successfully, I will active the RAM optimization, will also give 2 mode: 0 for load some files directly into RAM, 1 will reserve 25% RAM used for compressed swap.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Grumps:
Bring it on i will try this im currently running nand with sd not ext4 but wanna run wp7 with android on sd and ur 2.2 doesnt wana play nice with wp7 or even 2.6in nand and 2.2 on sd (doesnt detect sim card).

I guess with this il use the system.image from nand 2.6???
[HD2 Android SD Development] fitao:
thanks

Thanks a lot for your SD ROM Dandiest,

I run it with the mdj10.30's kernel, and it roxs.

If I can suggest you a thing, you should make a new post for the next version and make a link to this one.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Franchiselocs:
Where is the link for 2.2? All I see are the 2.1 links.....
[HD2 Android SD Development] shah_vm:
you will have to download 2.1 and then download this bugfix which will make it 2.2 rel.

after you download the bugfix file in this file you will find desire_z folder copy that folder to root of sdcard. if it prompt for overwrite say yes to all.
[HD2 Android SD Development] chtan23:
Are you using v2.2? Can share how to run with mdj 10.3 kernel? I'm able to replace the zImage and bootup fine. But I'm not able to replace the /system/lib/modules/ ko files since v2.2 is using SquashFS. As a result, wifi is not working because the bcm4239.ko is not updated.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
OK, eventually solved all the problem, let's test again.

How to test:

as mentioned before, I have redeveloped the script, so, all the configs needs to check. :)

my intention is to merge the Nand&SD into one, thus, i reorganized the file structure, now, we will only use two folders, 1 is for contain the config.txt as well as the SD&Nand build files which is permanent - folder name is Desire_DL, the other is for upgrade which is temporary, folder name is Update_DL.

the config.txt s now under Desire_DL folder, have the following parameters.

For Nand:

For SD.

Please download my nand v2.4 build, extract the system.img to Desire_DL folder, and extract the test package to it also, the config file should be:

Other config:

gps_zone: your gps zone country code.

ppp_mode: 0 will be PPP mode, 1 for RMNET.

this package is for testing only, which includes the debug output, please send me the result along with the init.log at the root of your sdcard.

Please don't disseminate this test package!!!.

thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] TacoLoco:
I can't find any 2.4 version in your first post, also in the title it says 3.0 but only 2.1 and bugfix to download.. I'm a little confused, want to try it with MagLdr from SD, please point me to the right files ;)

2.6 NAND for testing will approach or it is necessary 2.4?
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
hehe, sorry for letting you guys wait, the 1st test is only for verifying whether this concept is ok or not, looks it fine.

Thus, I'm uploading the whole build, which can be used to flash the nand or just run from SD.

I will PM you guys the link after uploading.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
let me clarify what is nand and what is SD build now.

For nand builds, it only need once to flash into nand system partition, after that, the system will be loaded from nand(of course). the file for flash the nand is yaffs2 file system, which is only used for Nand(so far I can know).

For SD build, the system is loads from System.ext2 and it is needed on the time, the system.ext2 is used the most common file system in Linux - ext2, while of course, we can use ext4 for this, but have not time to try.

Come to my build, since the system.img that used for Nand cannot be loaded directly, so my build will auto convert it into ext2 during the boot process, if success, then delete the system.img, but of course, the 1st boot takes time.

Im lost ive read the first post many times now and i dont understand. the extra apps says it must be extracted to android folder and 5 lines down it says create andoridapp only after first boot. so where exactly do i put the .apk files. want to autoinstall titanium backup.apk so it will install and then i can restore a backup?

Thanx in advance.
[HD2 Android SD Development] vicai:
i dont know how to make it once you have everything up and running, but probably it would "auto-pickup" on boot. but should be in :

sdcard/desire_z/root/system/app/*.apk
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
2st test version uploaded but I then realized the nand_data may have some problem, and change again, the new build is uploading now, but takes time.

anyway, this one is good enough for test,

http://www.multiupload.com/K286XSG7SL

For Nand users, just flash it.

For SD user, extract the whole folder to your sdcard, put your data.img to the folder and run as normal, you may need to change the config.txt.sd to config.txt which I provide for reference.

For MADLDR, extract the whole folder to your sdcard, put your data.img to the folder and run as normal, you may need to change the config.txt.MADLDR to config.txt which I provide for reference and config the MADLDR to load from the folder of Desire_DL.

Please report problem here with the log, otherwise, I don't know the problem.

[HD2 Android SD Development] xdabart:
If i understand correctly i can boot it from SD as usual without using MAGLDR ?

I am trying to install the usual way, format SD-Card, put the build on and run haret.exe but after 20 minutes still not booting, stuck on the black HTC screen.

Or did i mess it up by naming the folder Android and editing startup.txt accordingly ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] vicai:
i have exactly the same problem .. first time i waited for about 30 mins. data.img around 1GB is created, but nothing else .. i formated the card again, copied everything to desire_dl, started again .. it is 15 minutes ATM, now i want to wait around 45mins, if nothing, i give up.

used suggested config for sd

however before suggested config. i tried making 3 partitions on the card. fat32 2gb, unformated (2nd partition) 1,8gb and unformated (3rd partition) 200mb. using suggested config mod from THIS post, but got "overlaping address" error. so i figured me doing something wrong, so done with sd normal startup

EDIT: so 45minutes passed .. still stuck at black screen, green htc logo. i guess as for sd build this .. hmm .. well .. you know :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] shah_vm:
i am also not able to pass thru htc screen. i have done long format and copied all the files from 7z. do i have to extract system.img from nand 2.4? this is what i have not done so far.
[HD2 Android SD Development] xdabart:
After you gave up, did you see a init.log in the root of the SD card ?

On my second attempt (Desire_DL folder, changed ppp_mode=0 and sd_boost=0) I had a init.log in the root of the SD card saying something about blocks copied, also a system.ext2 had appeared, maybe i just did not wait long enough ?

Trying for a third time now, 12 minutes....
[HD2 Android SD Development] EvgeniyMGD:
Too waited for 15 minutes, but anything except picture HTC hasn't appeared. On SD has appeared init.log.
[HD2 Android SD Development] xdabart:
Was that init.log empty ? or did it say something about copying blocks ?

Waiting: 25 minutes now :confused:

edit : i pulled the battery after 30 minutes, the init.log says:

/dev/block/loop1: clean, 11/100640 files, 11439/300799 blocks

I can see this was logged and system.ext2 was created 1 minute after booting, so it's not stuck in the system.img conversion it seems, maybe this info is useful for dandiest ?

Reporting in

So I gave this build a try today and it is amazing! No more problems for me with the gsensors. it is extremely responsive! No wifi problems, seems to be charging for me through usb. One thing I noticed on my phone is that the wifi calling sometimes turns on and drains some serious battery. I have never initiated the app and made sure that it is off. Still it comes back. and I can't stop the process through a normal task killer I have to go to settings apps and force stop. I would like to just remove it if possible. I am wondering if this could be something that is causing all of the random battery drain issues? when it is running i see cpu usage go from 10-25% to 95-100% maybe im wrong its just an observation

Battery random issues but...

Hi Everybody, I think this is one of the best build I tested ... Everything is working fine so far and I could also experience some battery problems :

- Unclear to me yet why if you have blue-tooth or wifi enabled under windows, this is taken in account under android <-> I was convinced it was not linked but ... (by switching them off, it was back to 5 to 8mA after a reboot <-> rebooting only was not sufficient).
[HD2 Android SD Development] dandiest:
something about battery life:

i left home this morning at 11am with my phone fully charged, and continue using it: optimize this build, download files, upload files, etc.

now it's 6pm in the evening, my phone is just almost run out of battery.

so, the battery in this build can sustain 7 hours heavy using, i really think it's good enough. lol.

Tried it for a day so far, and ... for those who is coming from Desire HD builds,

-data.img migration seems to work! (I used the data.img from desire_hd2 beta and it worked well! first boot took awhile though!)

-All framework.apk files for Desire HD also works on the Desire Z (might be obvious to some, but for me it was not!)

-EXTREMELY smooth! Puts most Desire HD builds to shame!

I do wonder is it possible to make the system partition bigger? It seems that it is running out of space for me.

Hey guys, I have everything running very smooth.
