^doesn't matter. either jpg or png. 480x800

you put your files by creating a folder on the sd card.

just press long on your home screen then it will ask you what you want.

better, download wp by googling then put it on your sd card then set it thereafter
[HD2 Android SD Development] noixdarec:
Same here. The build is so good except this problem... Waiting too.

Edit: letama saves me. Check this out:

Download his vold.zip. If you don't know how to use adb, simply plug your sd card on pc and copy the extracted file (vold.fstab) to Android\root\system\etc on the sd card then plug it back to the phone then boot to Android. Solved the problem and now I'm happy!

Edit: the vold.fstab doesn't work after a couple of time. When I was using Titanium is works normally at first then the sd card suddenly unmounted and it wont work any more. Tried vold.fstab + SDFormatter 3 but no luck.
[HD2 Android SD Development] EngineerMind:
Sorry for not explaining my issue enough...

I know how to assign a new wallpaper, but it requires using the generic "gallery" image browser (which defaults to the root directory of the storage card), and then having to navigate through multiple directories to get to the location I put the wallpaper files into.

But, I'd rather just select "Wallpaper Gallery" from the wallpaper pop-up menu, and then have it immediately display just my wallpaper files and no other files or *directories*.

So, I was wondering if anyone knew what the default directory is for the "Wallpaper Gallery" app that it looks in first, this way I can then put my wallpaper files in that directory so I dont have to navigate all over the place every time I want to change the wallpaper.

Does anyone know what directory the "Wallpaper Gallery" app first starts in?

5mp Camera work-around

I have been using this build for a couple of months now and think that it is fantastic, can't remember the last time I used winmo, but I have struggled to get the camera to work at 5mp. I've found a work-around by downloading and using lgCamera (free version) from market place (5mp resolution works out the box).

Hope this helps others.
[HD2 Android SD Development] bineesh2k:
Same here. Found no solutions. Had to reinstall sense the second time since my initial.

BTW : Install an app and the phone is frozen for a long time. Most of the time have to take it out of the case and remove battery and reboot. Painful. Anyways app is installed and nowadays dont install apps for trying out sakes.

Also the internet gets timed out on wifi tether. So have to wake the phone to get net back on, though the tether remains.

Wish I'd get some solutions, which no one seems to offer here these days.

Still enjoying the build. Its the good one till date.
[HD2 Android SD Development] auximinies:
I've got an odd one. My screen brightness appears to be defaulting to about 30%. I can adjust the slider up or down and press OK, and it always defaults back to 30%. I it the brightness button on power bar and it will only increase - not decrease - and then goes back to 30%!

I then tried various brightness widgets. All of them clearly are overridden immediately as brightness goes straight back to 30%

What could be causing this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] schnurzelat:
First i want to say this is a really great rom. Fast, stable and functional. It works with my BMW's built in hands free, too! Bluetooth MP3 playback works also! Amazing!

But there is a little problem. I use HTC Sync 3.0.5511, which successfully synchronize my contact and appointments, but it seems that the documents are not synchronized. I can not find any document on the phone and on the sdcard. Can anyone help?

greetings

Is there any way to boost media and ringer volume on this build?
[HD2 Android SD Development] puunda:
I've been using this build for awhile now and I find it's the quickest and best Android Sense rom I've used. I've recently installed MAGLDR and WP7 on my phone. I believe some tweaks have to be done to the image in order for it to be booted from MAGLDR. Does anyone know if this rom here can be tweaked/modified to be booted from MAGLDR?
[HD2 Android SD Development] schnurzelat:
I have found out what the problem is. First i made a mistake by choosing the wrong folder, but the issue with the filetypes still exists.

Only if the if the correct file type is in the provided folder, syncing works.

music: *.aac, *.amr, *.m4a, *.mid, *.midi, *.mp3, *.wav, *.wma

pictures/videos: *.bmp, *.gif, *.jpeg, *.jpg, *.png, *.3gp, *.3g2, *.mp4, *.wmv

documents: *.doc, *.xls, *.ppt, *.pdf, *.txt

e. g. if you have pps or wmv files in your documents folder nothing will be synced.

Dimmer

I use the Dimmer app from the Market and put the shortcut on my homescreen. With just a tap it reduces the brightness to 10%. It remembers the setting between reboots as well.

Give it a try.

Is there mms issue or I am the only one with that kind of problem ? Is there any solution ? I can't send or receive ....
[HD2 Android SD Development] Omegavirus:
tried to dual boot it with wp7 but always dies at the lockscreen/preparing sd card. ):
[HD2 Android SD Development] schnurzelat:
I don't know, if someone mentioned it already, but for this release you don't need to change ANYTHING on your HD2. Simply copy the files to your SD-Card and start the two exe's. This release has no need for MAGLDR, HSPL, SSPL, downgrade to ROM 1.66 etc. I am using this SuperRAM Sense v0.1 version, with a German stock ROM 3.14 (Radio 2.15.50), SPL 3.03 for 2 weeks!

schnurzelat

PS. If the thread starter or a mod reads this, i think it would be a good idea, to put this information in the first post, of this thread. It simplifies the usage of Android on a HD2 very much!
[HD2 Android SD Development] somebully:
That's because your stock rom is newer than most
[HD2 Android SD Development] sandeman11:
search this thread but maybe overlooked it.

right now i use radio-version 2.12.50.02_2, what is (in your opinion) the best radio-version voor darkstone's build?

Thanks in advance!

[HD2 Android SD Development] ketzazu:
2% per hour battery drain!

I have been enjoying about 2%/hour battery drain on standby with this build with location settings both fully enabled and bluetooth on. That is very comaparable to the drainage in Winmo. This builds brings me great joy for what I use the phone for: making phone calls and reference library.

I gave up on the other builds because of unacceptable standby drain of 5%/hour.

Yes, the HD2 shines better with Darkstone's SuperRam Sense 0.1!
[HD2 Android SD Development] cyalfred:
if i understand your question correctly, you mean the SD card keep unmounted right at start, right?

actually, i faced the same problem with my 8Gb class2 card and my 16Gb class 4 card. but after formatting with panasonic sd formatter, both card are working well with this rom, the fastest and most stable rom with sense. great work!
[HD2 Android SD Development] hensond67:
Man This is amazing. Too bad the mms doesn't work. Strange though because the MMS works fine on the Froyo build
[HD2 Android SD Development] jcsy:
i will give panasonic a try and see how that unfolds

Google maps reverting to 5.0.0 after every reboot

I've been using this build for a couple of months now, and love it. booting is kind of a pain, but once running it's almost flawless.

strangely, after every boot my version of Google Maps reverts back to 5.0.0 from 5.2.1 and I have to restore it via Titanium or Market. this has been consistent through a couple of rebuilds of the build. any ideas, anyone else getting this?

cheers

m.
[HD2 Android SD Development] cgigate:
which version Panasonic SD card formatter, v3.0 or v2.0 ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] legmovement:
hi

thanks for the info and help regarding the sd card poroblem..i tried sd formatter and it worked a treat. other than this problem all is great with this build.

a huge thanks and gratitude (from all of us i should think)to Darkstone for his outstanding work.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dark_ness4647:
Hi!! this rom is perfect to me and i wish i could stay in this rom 4ever. However, i want the launcher on the notification bar, which shows the app i recently used and wifi,bluetooth, gps button. Is there anyway to get that notification bar. thank you and regard
[HD2 Android SD Development] chuckymob:
Too buggy, certainly not RC or Beta. Best guess is Alpha

This build is far more unstable than the Darkstone Froyo build IMHO.

Firstly: Yes, it has Sense but it is laggy. No ifs, no buts, it is laggy. You can get some minor improvements by turning off animations but it still drags its sack on the floor in comparison.

There are a host of confirmed bugs. I say confirmed because in going through every single page of this thread they are a reoccuring theme and differing posts as to how to overcome them.

The data drop off issue exists: Sometimes the data just drops off and there is no bringing it back without a reboot (Which is blazingly fast to boot in comparison with the Froyo build, surprisingly).

GPS does not work for some, me included. This is also the case for me on the Froyo build. Yes I've tried altering the build prop, adding gps file etc, running gpxfix, toggling gps on and off. Still no luck on both sense and froyo builds.

The SD Card issue is more to do with the card formating. Some manufacturers format their cards differently before selling, so you might never get the issue, some don't. However I used 3 diff cards and 2 worked (a 4GB, 8GB and 16GB) the 4GB failed with the dreaded message telling me it is safe to remove the card instead of mounting it, even though it works in my other android devices without issue. I didn't bother with reformating it.

Android Market will drive you nuts with freezes. This was reported by others and it certainly freezes. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE OF TRYING TO INSTALL MORE THAN 1 APP. The phone goes on vacation without leaving a note. If you have screen timeout, your frustration quadruples as it goes blank and you try to swipe unlock a half frozen screen. Froyo breezes through Market without any issues..LOL

Battery Drain: LOL...this one is a real treat. There are more fixes than I can count. Eventually you start getting close to normal use after doing the toggle gps trick, toggle background data, killing all apps, charging battery to the full in winmo, turning off everything in winmo before starting, ,using the current widget to monitor and pray you are hitting the sweet 3-7mA. I did it a few times. But way too much work. I don't see how the motorola defy can litterally have days on standby with all those motoblur widgets and this won't even last a few hours. Miss a step and you are looking at 20% in an hour. You either turn off everything and get a day out of the phone or keep a charger handy. That was a sacrifice too much for me, because I saw it giving out on me at the worst moments.

Darkstone Froyo can last a day on a charge with all my multiple email syncs, stocks, news, widgets etc going. So I went back to it. I've been using the Froyo build since Jan-2011 and so far other than the GPS bug, will say that one is more of a Beta build. Certainly haven't gone back to WinMo since then so it is far usuable...

Loving the bluetooth allowing me to listen to pandora in the car audio system. Keep up the good work Darkstone, you saved me the cost of a new phone. Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] zecxx:
so you would go for the darkstone SuperRAM froyo v1.5 then? :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] zark0000:
MMS still not working

Not sure what else to try.

Tried lots of APN variations

Editing build.prop

anything else I found on here and elsewhere

Now I'm just looking for a RAM ROM with sense and working T-Mobile MMS.

I liked this build but can't live without MMS.
[HD2 Android SD Development] gman411:
I looked at your build. I do not see any difference with ram usage verses another build I run on sd that automatically uses some ram? But my main concern is the OPENVPN AND THE TOOLS ATTACHED TO IT. YOU CAN WATCH AN END USER REMOTELY. THE MODIFIED KEYBOARD CAN TRANSFER ALL DATA ENTRY TO YOU. SO IF SOMEONE IS LOOKING AT THEIR ACCOUNT YOU CAN SEE AND GET IT ALL?!
[HD2 Android SD Development] bineesh2k:
More from last post.

I got fed up of issues. Trying roms. None perfect. Guess what - a miracle happened! My HD2 display got the unresponsive sickness. I had a year warranty and took it back to the store and they were ready to give me another hd2. Then the desire hd2 caught my eye. Paid a few xtra quids and upgraded to it. Did not find much of difference at first except for the 8mp cam. A bit less than a month now. I can at last say android + sense is seamlessly perfect. No more woes. Thanks HTC.

SD Card

As my new SD card is working know its not the 16 GB factor. I formated the old stock 16 GB card from the phone and the computer. Swapped cards and the old SD card is still not working. If your using the stock 16GB SanDisk card use a different one. Shouldnt matter size as my 16 works and older post says their 8 works.

If anyone finds the solution on the older cards please post.

it is recommended to delete but i guess it depends on what u have in there. but remember that everything under the /root direct will get copied over to the device (data.img or system.ext2) during boot.

i use this method to restore my apps settings, highscores etc ... so in this case i always delete because if i don't delete any progress i made in games or changes to apps setting will be restored back to what it was after the first boot.
