"If you are developing something that is based on the work of another" by you

"SD/RAM: no NAND there are tons of people already doing this for you. (!readme! in /Android/RAMfiles/ if you want switch to RAM version) - (havn't tested this at all please report) " By Him

He is not developing anything about RAM... he has posted a new ROM and just said that u can change it to use in RAM mode... he is not saying that he owns the development of RAM mode or something like that... he even say that RAM version is not tested.... How can someone own a sw that has never tested....

Maybe we can start every post with names like cotulla, HTC, Google (since here we are "modding" THEIR sw), Linus Torvalds (Linux).... or BBS and Usenet (Forums started with that...) or credits for militars that give us internet.... and so on.........

I don't see any infraction here...

What he is sharing with us is an operative Android 2.3 with CM7 notthing about RAM mode... We should say TY...

At least this is my opinion...

We all should open our minds a little...
[HD2 Android SD Development] Muzun28:
what is the ram mode? i made a search but couldnt find enough information....

thanks...
[HD2 Android SD Development] af974:
Thanks for your point of view but what i can see in title thread is RAM and just a little Thanks to DarkStone between the other name was enough.

I have nothing against the OP, i think he is a good developer, but since without Cotulla,bepe,Darkstone (in this case),Mdj,hastarin and so on we would have no Android here.....what is only a little Thanks to.....?

We should open our mind a little.....and waste some more characters in our posts.
[HD2 Android SD Development] af974:
Check here what is RAM mode http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=892797
[HD2 Android SD Development] Istarth:
And is Google less than DarkStone ?? for example ???

I am with You that whould be great to see a TY... but that is far from an infraction ...
[HD2 Android SD Development] af974:
Yes, maybe i exagerated with infraction but i didnt make XDA rules, in theory DarkStone did modify the kernel for RAM and, again in theory, he is the creator of it.........lol, i guess we can debate this issue till tomorrow.

EDIT Anyway, the other guy that is offering RAM build is boyppc and i sent a PM also to him but he wasnt online since my PM.
[HD2 Android SD Development] st3v3:
WTF? yeah talk about being heavy handed! You could have approached Cope's (compiled) creation with a little more respect yourself.

Fair enough he might have to mention someone in credits but was all that really necessary?

BTW Cope that new nightly rom doesnt seem to have root user permissions, wouldnt let me update the screen density file.

Dont worry we still appreciate the work you do :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] StarLog:
Once an update is made to the ram code, and Cope pushes it to us.

If we are already running his code, and want to keep our program definitions, i.e. the contacts in mecontacts, or the way our programs are layed out on the display.

What do we save or extract before loading the new run, and is just easy to save it back, and be running the new code as if we never did anything.?

Quitting NAND builds, MIGHT work on SD build again. Definitely not doing sense based roms again. There's just too many roms out, why bother?

Seems he is upset over this.

took me 5-10 mins to boot but ram isnt working @ me.

if i use haret.exe i see the green htc logo during android booting and then the phone reboots and wm6.5 starts.

Robo Voice

Just installed 012111 and now all of a sudden I'm getting robo voice, is there a quick fix for this? I've look all thru thread, did I miss it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] newcountry:
Just run a clean installation for build 012111, angrybird force close, camcoder force close, data don,t work, so go back to the build released on Jan 19.
[HD2 Android SD Development] zmoboss:
Pretty smooth so far .. couple of things found:

1. The market downloads dont work in wi-fi (is it because of mac address issue) ?

2. Data connection drops within two minutes of inactivity ; have to go to airplane mode and back

Anyone else notice / have a solution ?

thx

@hooutoo: try making a call, turn on speaker phone, hang up .. make another call .. should be fine
[HD2 Android SD Development] hooutoo:
Dude... thanks so much! I've been struggling with this for a couple of days. I'm almost ready for a gay moment,, nah, but I'm pretty happy.

Thanks again.
[HD2 Android SD Development] iluv2fly:
Happy Camper

After having a ton of data connectivity/sound problems I installed a clean installation of build 012111. I deleted all previous Android data from my sd card and started over. Everything works and the build is really fast. Great Job Copenhagen! Thanks! :) :) :)

To all of you who have problems,,, Try this!

Do a clean install, copy the android folder directly to the sd card in a reader. I have seen XDA members reporting android data corruption when transfer via usb cable to phone.
[HD2 Android SD Development] NYSEAN1:
I have tried it several times. On first boot I got the robot tone while dialing a number the phone call never went through. After rebooting it dialed out the other party can hear my voice but I hear robot. On third boot call problems seem to be solved, all worked well. But wireless data connection seem to be struggling and signal strength going on and off. I tried to pick a wireless network with a know network available but after turning it on and off quite a few times and leaving it on, it never could pick up a network.

Other then the problems stated above, it seemed very fast comparing other builds I have tried. I would it's super fast, but needs further tweaking. Thanks for the build though.

WiFi not working. Activation error.

Radio 2.15.50.14 from VBN ROM

Camcorder crashes.
[HD2 Android SD Development] vcurbel:
First of all.Thanks Cyanogen for this built. It is really awesomw related to battery drainage. I get 1 mah in stanby and 80 to 125 running . Quadrant test it gave me 1650 so far without any tweak

I am using WM DEXTER series ROM and radio 2.10.50.26

Issues I have found so far

1- Auto-rotate does not work properly. You may be able to do it manually, opening camera horizontal, even if the camera does not open, it rotates the screen. To go back vertical just open the phone call window

2- HTC camera is not working as stated above

3- I will be nice to change the keyboard type to another standard android keyboard with a full letters keyboard

4- WIFI is not working. It is giving me error. WIFI Tethering as well.

5- It gave error when searching the mobile network and wireless &network settings/Mobile networks/network operator.

6- Data is not working for me with the correct APN for my provider.

7- Phone opens minimized in a 4x2 window. I havent found a way to get it full screen

8- Lock screen also opens in a 4X2 window

I have not been able to try google applications as wifi and data are not working for me

bluetooth, phone(no robotic voice at all), etc work fine
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
1- was working with the new data.img.. are you using an existing one?

2- will look into this

3- search xda htc ime input for an alternate keyboard apk

4- a. dont try to change the kernel to something else

b. make sure you dont have a /sdcard/android/'root' folder with alternate firmware/module files stored within. if you do, delete EVERYTHING and start over.

5-will look into this

6- YAY one thing going right

7- spart parts app, uncheck 'compatibility mode'

8- i know.. looking into this one

>bluetooth, phone(no robotic voice at all), etc work fine

thank god... lol
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
for wifi fix:

grab the attachment. unzip and copy the two folders to /lib/

might need root explorer to do it.

or use adb or es.. or whatever.

but this shouldnt happen if you use the data.img i provided in the package
[HD2 Android SD Development] dohclude:
just tried the build a couple of times. I wanted a 1GB data.img so I tried using toporesize. First of all I couldn't set it to exactly 1024 with the stupid slider, even when resizing it directly on the sd card so I set it to 1442. It gave messages about finding errors in the img. Tried to boot, let it sit for 20 minutes, stuck on black and green htc screen.

Tried resizing with the "dd.exe" using "dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=768 >> data.img" and worked well, gave me a perfect 1GB data.img... unfortunately did the same as before frozen on the htc screen.

Did a fresh reformat on the sd card, tried again... still frozen on the htc logo. I'll try booting with the original 256M data.img, but that's not nearly enough space for my normal apps.

*EDIT - Tried it again with the untouched 256M data.img and it booted up right away. I seem to be getting the same problems as the others listed above (no wifi, no auto-rotate, etc) so I thought I would try a nice "fix_permissions" from the Terminal app. Unfortunately when I opened the terminal and was about to enter the command, I realized that the keyboard was not in English at all. :(

*EDIT #2 - Rebooted again just to make sure everything was set up properly. Let the phone sit while I was typing the first edit above. Screen turned off. Hit the power button, lock screen came up. Slid the unlocker and... screen turns off. Screen stays off no matter what I do. Not a complaint, just providing info.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
try this way instead... use the 256mb img i provided (thanks to mdj btw)

Using resize2fs only to resize w/o anything else:

D:\Software\DATA.IMG Maker\DATA.IMG Maker>resize2fs -p data.img 524288

resize2fs 1.40.6 (09-Feb-2008)

Resizing the filesystem on data.img to 524288 (1k) blocks.

Begin pass 1 (max = 30)

Extending the inode table XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The filesystem on data.img is now 524288 blocks long.

512=524288

1024mb (=1GB) = 1048576

basically mb x 1024 to get your answer.

or if you want to get super tech on it.

you can

1. mount the 256mb .img in linux - and copy all the information out of it.

2. mount your good existing data.img in linux - and copy all the stuff you took out of the 256mb .img over whatever you have already (you wont lose any info.. its just system files and settings etc) then try to boot with your old data.img -> this works.

You have to know enough about permissions etc and linux to do this.

but yay!

@keyboard:

1.htc keyboard - link

from here and here

2. modified froyo http://www.androidcentral.com/froyo-feature-better-stock-android-keyboard

3. gingerbread keyboard here just in case

4. froyo keyboard - here

5. this one might work link

will include some of these in the next build

are you guys using the data.img from build 1 or 1.1?

use 1.1 its fixed. 1 had permission problems
[HD2 Android SD Development] dohclude:
wow. release 1.1 wasn't even there yet when we posted that lol.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Ahmun_Ra:
Not true my friend. I used your data.img and wifi error too :(. Going to try the fix. Thanks for the ROM look very nice the dpi ;).
[HD2 Android SD Development] noellenchris:
Hey Cope, glad you officially released a build and made your own thread. I was about to venture into the CM7 arena, but moved over to NAND. Now I don't know what I'm doing again. Today I almost figured out the Yaffs and UnYaffs and RaiderX released ClockworkMod and again we have another format for making the system and flashing etc. I'm lost again. I feel much more comfortable posting here where I feel safe. Congrats on your build, I'd love to try but feeling lazy to undo NAND. But I may try your system.ext2 and see if I can convert it to a NAND system and get it working. If I do, I'll send it to you and explain how I did.

As for GPS, I'm sure you tried all the gps stuff from the stuff we used for cm6. I think it was the libGPS.so file that Cotulla used to have on his download folder. I have it somewhere. That's all I can think of. Well good luck and I will see what I can do with a NAND system.

Chris
[HD2 Android SD Development] vcurbel:
sorry, im just trying to help . im testing it in order for you to improve it. i love gingerbread capabilities(long back button app kill, battery use by process-app, C & P. etc)

1- Autorotate- It does not work for me with new data 1.1 image

2- Hc camera crashing-pending

3- keyboard- fixed with alternate keyboard

4- WIFI error still doesnt work with new data img v1.1 and also replacing /system/lib files

5- Network seraching error-----pending

6- data is working with new version 1.1

7- Phone 4X2 . still does not open full unchecking 'compatibility mode'at spart parts and rebooting

8- Full Lock screen fixed on version 1.1

9- USB debbuging issue. it is not being read and open from pc and a driver

Thanks for sharing and keep on going..itll get there....
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
redundant post. issues are now fixed with current build.
[HD2 Android SD Development] akshan:
Ya, I like winmo and occasional android shots. For that RAM build is the fastest, safest and easiest!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] myaditya:
How about extended battery support? Because I m using hastarin kernel8.6eb but wifi is not working showing error.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Dunc001:
Second that. I can't see the benefit in NAND over SD RAM and (until I found your thread :cool:) was really disappointed how quickly it seems these builds have been forgotten. I use both WinMo and Android in equal measure because the 3G network around here is **** and you really can't use Android fully without a good data connection, plus I have a full iGo Primo setup on my Winmo side for nav without constant data connection so I want to keep both. I was waiting eagerly for someone to release a complete Gingerbread SD RAM version but just before it happened everyone jumped ship. So thankyou, and I look forward to your updates as they happen!
[HD2 Android SD Development] HannoSLM:
+1, nicely said
[HD2 Android SD Development] khay:

[HD2 Android SD Development] killbill88:
Thanks a bunch Cope

2 points:

A-the icons r too small. how do we make em big?

B-there is the issue with slow screen wake up time. this is something I noted with the builds by darkstone and mdeejay which had sense overlayed on froyo (darkstone's i.5 froyo does not have that problem). i note that in your build, the unlock screen appears after some delay when i press the red button and when it does, its only for a fraction of a second so i have to unlock it really quickly otherwise it goes black again.

Hats off to your work. well done and remember that its people like you due to whom we check these forums twice a day for updates and continue to hang on to our HD2s
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
@Hastarin 8.6 U can try... i had reboot issues. Let me know how it goes for u.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
@icon size. Adw launcher settings. You can change
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
I mentioned darkstone in the first post.

Its unreasonable to expect me to mention EVERYONE... i listed who i knew off the top of my head.

And made sure to say "if i missed anyone...." 24 hours is unfair. There are times when I go longer then 24 hours between xda visits.

Im a bit hurt/dissapointed at the way this was handled. Xda just got a little less .... important to me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] beebrox:
Another solution is to change it in the startup.txt itself. Works fine for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Arkou3000:
I am going crazy ....I am try to find the"build.prop" in system folder and it doesn't exist.I search anywhere in sd card and i cant find a file with this name.Is it possible?Can someone give this file from his rom?
[HD2 Android SD Development] st3v3:
OK so heres a list of other people/demigods you should thank just to keep unreasonable mods happy....

Bill Gates (without him Android would not be possible cause google wouldnt want to depose his creation)

Nokia (original inventor of the PDA)

Cher Wang and Peter Chou (founders of HTC)

The Interwebs founders

I guess a few peeps at Google should be mentioned or just Google in general

and possibly some sort of God (just to cover all the bases) this also covers you for the basic laws of the universe in which all electromagnetics would not be possible.

i love this build, what should i do to make it work, this is the only issue i have

Edit: basically i found out that all sounds don't work, not even one click on any app. i have the volume on loud for everything, i have chosen ringtones or click sound when i am typing but no sound works. does anyone know what to do?

also the most times it delays a little to open an app.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
/system/etc/firmware

find and delete default.acdb and reboot

If its still doing it then delete the htcleo.acdb and reboot

Data Problem

I seem not to be able to get a data connection with this build. I must be doing something wrong or missing something but not quite sure what.

Everything else seems to work fine that I have tried so far so any assistance in getting this to work would be greatly appreciated.

Thank again for a great sd gingerbread build

just updated to latest version and still no data :-(

See fix on page 17. I didn't need it as I believe it's already incorporated in the last two builds but you can try it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] arizmin:
Hi Cope... thank you for keeping SD alive with this GB ROM. Been using the 20/1/11 and confirm the Data works this time and it fast too. I copied the earlier data.img to this and restart without problem and still have all my setup n apps.

Got 3 feedbacks... CAM still FC (confirmed with others too) secondly on the keypad lights which keep on (not sure if this is intentional??) and lastly the ringtone volume i feel a bit low than othr builts i have tried.

Anyone else hv same problems??
[HD2 Android SD Development] negromnia90:
Hi Cope!

This ROM is fantastic!:cool:

Thanks to advance the development of the ROM on SD, if they ultimately do not find it!

However, I noticed that the audio call is a bit low, plus the proximity sensor is a bit of whim during a call.

Thanks again for your work!;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] techops:
The Build is nice and everything works fine. I notice only two issues:

- the lights of the hardware keys are always on - in others builds, that I used before and under WM6.5, the lights are going off, after while.

- does not recognized the HD2 big battery -2300 mAh (thats, official from the HTC). It's drain as the normal battery and I have to restart the phone, to use the another 50%.

Is there a fix for these issues? Thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] radon222:
I had to uncheck the get time from carrier long enough to set my correct time zone. Then reset it. Time is fine now.

There are rules. Then there is the interpretation of rules. Then there is the application of rules. Some more sensitivity and respect on the latter two would have been a more optimal way forward perhaps

Try one more time clean installation the build released on 21-Jan in another SD card, problem still here.

1) camcoder force close

2) data sill don't work at first boot, but it can solve by turn it off and on again.

3) trying install the angry bird from market, it force close. Maybe default is install into the SD card, so solved by move back to phone.

4) Build.prop can,t be edit, so the LCD density can't be change. Edit the startup.txt and use LCD dendity apps is not work after reboot.

So giveup the build released on Jan-21 and go back the build on Jan-20. For build released on Jan-20, only got the camcoder force close problem and it run really smooth and fast. Anyway thank you very much.
[HD2 Android SD Development] newcountry:
Hey, do u have camcoder force close problem?
[HD2 Android SD Development] chn110:
To change LCD density across reboot, do the following

1) Make directory root/system under the Android directory on your SD card

2) Copy /system/build.prop to the above directory

3) Edit ro.sf.lcd_density entry

4) Save the change and reboot
[HD2 Android SD Development] chn110:
Same here. A couple of other things:

1) Audio playback is shifted to a higher frequency. If I play realtime audio such as VoIP echo test, the audio has a higher pitch and there will be gaps in between.

2) Builtin VoIP client does not run over 3G, only WiFi. Would suggest apply this patch.
