I think your SD is a bit messed up, and that's why windows does not see it.

You could try and make a backup via ftp from your fat32, and try to format it with gparted.

Just don't touch the ext4 partition, and your apps and settings will be safe.

This did help me.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
May be you have formatted both your partitions as ext (linux format)?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kotayk:
Nice Build

I find your strategy very well, to create a build close to stock, not squashfsed and minimal stripped with data ext4onSD. For me is a daily use build.

One bothers me though, streaming video dont work.

Thank you for your work.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
Streaming video in what?

- Youtube

- TV App

- Browser
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DrMax1:
Great job!

Flashed and working all OK!

I'ts just that i was looking for, stock ROM with SD card Ext4 data, not tuned, no "creative" icons...

Thanks!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] zlobix:
I don't have *NIX, so I cant do that((

Format as it was recommended- fat32 is first primary and ext4 is second primary, created via Paragon Disk Manager Pro.

Modified framework-res?

Has anyone else been successful in replacing the framework-res.apk with one cooked in UOT kitchen? I keep getting android crashes and force closures. Appart from that the rom is the best there is. No speed or stability issues and battery life is really good for me.

SMS Glitch with no memory?

Hi Folks

Just a quick q... I have my ext4 all in place and 3.xGb of free memory now showing on the 'device'.

Only glitch I can't figure out is with SMS. Each time I try to send an SMS the device displays a message saying that the memory is full?

Can anyone help me trouble shoot this please... outside of that, all else is super so far!!

thanks in advance...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CrazyTurk42:
Its works here on youtube. And browser

But SPB TV doesnt stream.. i hear only sound
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Wormy:
Alrighty... I played around and ended up allocating 1Gb to the ext4 and bingo... all works a treat!! Hope this assists someone along the way...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] imotz:
it happens when im in a area where the signal strenght is very low, it lost the connection al the time. but i dont know why this happens :eek: maybe finding new networks all the time brings the phone to crash.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Olli221:
Nice Build! Superfast and Stable.

The long Boottime is OK. I tried at least the fast Rafdroid-Rom. After Upgrade new Version, with short Boottime - it becomes again much trouble with the Robovoice-issue...

Better somtimes longer Bootime than Callingproblems.

THX, Olli

I'm thinking of converting to WP7 to test it out, but will be using a different SD card. Am i right in assuming that if I decided to come back to android I can just flash this back and put in my Android SD card and everything will work perfect out of the box?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ClydeB1:
Yes, all should be fine - see you back in an hour because that's about how long it takes to get tired of WP7 ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bloodychaos:
Haha, after using it for weeks, the ROM hanged on me for the first time today. Also, I noticed it will slow down, just a little, if I don't restart my device after using it for 2 or 3 days, so I kinda make it a point to restart Android every morning after I wake up.

Other than that, I have yet to get any big problems, although, I kinda wish the next Magldr update allows me to charge the phone when sleeping...it gets really hot when the screen is lit up and charging at the same time
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CR5N:
+1 I was back to Android before an hour had passed ;-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] paocavallo:

[HD2 Android NAND Development] digiworld:
This ROM is sooooo boring. Its to stable, to fast, to good, to much of everything....... haven't changed or modified this ROM since day one. :D

I dont know what to do, to improve my HTC HD2 since i use this ROM.:rolleyes:

Everything works like it should.

What should i do with my spare time now? Has some one any suggestions what to do next to improve my HTC H2, i'm really bored now doing nothing :p

Really, this is a great ROM!! I recommend it to everybody, but be aware you could get bored, like me and don't know what to do with the spare time you'll have once you installed this ROM.

Please keep up the good work, i respect all the dev's here, they really deliver great work. Two thumbs up!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CrazyTurk42:
Make a ram version of this rom and ill donate hehe:D

Anyway...

GPS works. I have navigated from my work to home with Co-Pilot.

And a problem or bug i think:

Battery is charging slow? Or is it me? :P
[HD2 Android NAND Development] thegadget2010:
add apps like desktop visuliser and play arround with that stuff, like mine (pic below)

its keeping me very busy playing with that :P

p.s i cant believe i paid for ADWlauncher EX when Zeam does everything i need :(

p.p.s you cant resise widgets with Zeam, back to ADW EX :P

Hello,

is there any possibility to backup and restore this ROM with CWM?

not as far as im aware, but i have never useed CWM

so im sure somebody will have a guide how to do it.

Is it possible to backup the content of the ext4 partition to the fat32 partition using any android or windows application?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] InfX:
http://www.google.com/search?q=windows+ext4
[HD2 Android NAND Development] willgill:
Sorry, I don't have answers but I'll offer my experience. The contents of the ext4 are read protected with Linux permissions. From Linux (Ubuntu) I can't even read the contents of the ext4 partition.

I'm fairly new to Linux. I figured I could change permissions (CHMOD) or at least read the ext4 if I was root. Apparently not. Even though I created the partition, the phone wrote the data and was given ownership of the files. My root access in Ubuntu doesn't mean anything to the SD card.

I would think there must be a Linux tool to copy a whole disk or whole partition regardless of permission.

I think Acronis Disk Director (not free) and some other freeware can do this from Windows using bit by bit copy but it only recognizes ext2 and ext3.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
Yes you can, but it needs a workAround.

CWM and MAGLDR don't work togetter, thats why we need to trick it, if you realy need it.

Put CWM on your SD and Use MAGLDR to boot your SD.

Go to backup & Restore -> backup your rom, it will also back up your sd-ext.

When this is done, you will not be able to boot back to this rom.

You will get a kernel error!

But my guess is, you want a backup to try something else, so this is no problem.

If you want a CWM rom, you can go ahead and install it.

If you want DAF rom, you need to flash MAGLDR again.

------------------------------------------------

If you want to set back your backup

Go to CWM and go to backup & restore

Restore your backup and wait till it's done.

your devices will give an kernel error when you boot ! ! !

Just flash the DAF from this rom again, and all is back to where you started.

Hope this helps, it worked for me....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] InfX:
Please, come on, all he wants is to back his ext4 partition up. Why not just boot into MAGLDR, use it as USB card reader, and use any available tool, or even a stupid dd on a linux machine, to dump the partition ?!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
He asked to backup his rom with CWM, and this rom is a USB flasher.

So yess he can back it up, but not the normal way.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Olli221:
Do you flash the DAF without System.bin?

Olli
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
No, Original flash.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Olli221:
and that not overwrite your settings and Layouts from Backup?

Olli
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Olli221:
I have Boottime 6 min with Kingmax 16 GB Class10, but I have Boottime 3,5 min with Sandisk 16 Gb Class4...

The Kingmax is really much faster than the Sandisk by testing in a Cardreader, but not to use with the HD2. I think many Problems comes from some Cards.

Olli

Quadrantscore (with Kingmax or Sandisk): 1860!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
No, they are on ext4
[HD2 Android NAND Development] solid.snake:
Hi,

Concerning pb I have with this rom, I'm still not able to mount my SDCARD ton my PC, I mean I can't plug my HD2 to make it a storage device, It always says that the USB storage isn't formated,

Even after I took my µSD, put it directly into my computer and reformat both partition (FAT32+EXT3), both primary.

This is a very annoying PB, How to get ride of it ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CR5N:
Not a problem with the ROM. Try formatting your SD card with the Panasonic SD formatter (google) and try setting partitions up again.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CrazyTurk42:
Erhm i have a problem. Don't know what causes it maybe the rom or the bootloader or de spl.

Anyway when my phone compelety off and i want to start it.. It doenst start?? If i replace the battery then it starts?

Its not a huge problem cus i never turn my phone off :P
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
Do you connect charger, when phone is off?

anyway it is time to update MAGLRD to 1.13 )))
[HD2 Android NAND Development] neverFollow:
Happens when connected to charger and phone is turned off. I don't think it is related to this specific ROM cause I had it with almost all the other ROMs. Just do not turn it off when connected to charger :-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ClydeB1:
It's related to magldr (known bug). this has now been fixed (via a little workaround) in magldr 1.13.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] neverFollow:
Didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Olli221:
Anybody was able to convert this Rom to a CWM-Zip?

Olli
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
Then there must be something wrong with your settings.

I use this rom sinds it's here, and my battery lasts a full day with normal use.

- Check if your GPS & wifi is OFF in Location

- Check your brichtness, set auto off and put it down to about 35%

- Check your sync options, and only sync importent once a hour, the rest once a day or manualy.

HTC Sense and all her widgets eat a lot of battery, try LauncherPro to see if battery gets better.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
For me, with HSDPA connected all the time, two google accounts on push sync, twitter sync every 30 min, facebook and weather every 4h charge lasts from 9am till 11pm.

With wireless data turned on only when needed, and manual syncing services I'm easly getting two days on one charge. Almost like on Windows Mobile 6.5. WM power managment was slightly better, but Android's is fair enough too.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] singcheng:
Agreed. with data & wifi off, battery drain is about 5% over 8 hours.

If you keep your sync on-going every 30mins (facebook, tweet, etc), the drain is about 3~5% an hour!

and, worse, if you play game^^
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CrazyTurk42:
Mine goes like 22 hours a day. I charge it everyday. Im pretty happy with the drain.

Some tip: Charge it when its complety empty. And charge to when its 100% charged. If you charge it when its 70% and you do that often it may damage your battery. (I THINK)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] singcheng:
No, actually you shouldn't deplete your Lithium battery completely. You should always charge it even it is like 60% remaining.

Also, on next ROM flash (clean flash, not update), try to do it while it is fully charged. so that android can "detect" your full battery capacity and indicates it correctly. :D

Hello guys!

Here is mine configuration:

SPL: HSPL 2.08

Radio: 2.15.50.14

SD: 8GB class 4 ( second 1GB Ext4 primary partition)

MGLDR: 1.13

Yesterday I did a fresh reflash of this awesome rom. At 12:00 (noon) the battery was 100% full. Almost 4 hours I was using wifi to install all my apps from the Market and battery dropped down to 65%. Yesterday evening I made 3 phone calls. And wright now 11:25 it shows 50% after 2 more calls. I thing that there is no battery drain at all.

Man you guys were right, I had WP7 on my device for around an hour and a half, but wanted rid of it in the first 5 mins. To think I was going to upgrade my contract so I could get a HD7... I might just either stick with my HD2 or get a DesireHD for real now.

But i am currently flashing back this rom as it is the best there is.

Thanks so much for this.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
Trust me, I have both, and this rom is by far the best rom to be a Desire HD.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] sikorski:
You can also use a program called "MiniTool Partitioning Wizard" the home edition is free and you can use it on windows, this is the one I use, but it can only make EXT2 or EXT3

I made an EXT3 partition of 1GB and is working excellent, but its up to you.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] singcheng:
Make sure you don't make the ext3/4 partition greater than 2GB! some people reporting issue with ext3/4 partition with that size.

MiniTool is a great alternative for windows-based ppl like me :)

p/s: MiniTool could only create ext3 but it is working seamless for me :D

did anyone have a random FULLY WHITE screen?

I had this problem for three times over the past three days. I just downloaded drocap2 and will pull a screenshot in the next occurrence.

However, a restart will solve this FULL WHITE screen issue. But I am not sure if this is due to android (software) or my phone (hardware) issue...

well... I have class 6 card and this rom was also a bit slow and stuttering sometimes, but I guess it is the same situation with all DHD roms, desire roms are definitely faster. think about it - dhd have second gen. snapdragon plus more ram and rom. occasional slowdown is the price one have to pay for new sense ui goodies... :(

Is it normal that it takes a long time at the HTC-screen after the 'quietly brilliant' screen? Have the 16GB SD formatted with 15GB Fat32 and 1GB Ext4 using Ubuntu Gparted.

MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 2.1 does work, but I miss sense! Before I tried CM, I tried booting this without the SD-card after I waited for like 20min and it did work, but ofcourse nothing could be installed as there was no space left...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
It's correct that it takes longer, don't know why... but when loaded, it's worth it.

It doesn't take 20 min. but longer then usual..

Just booted the 0.9 update, and that was faster then the previous build.

I'll try waiting longer then :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Alganon:
Hi,

first of all, I want to thank you for your work.

I havn't switched to NAND yet, because I was waiting for the right ROM befor I switch from SD, as I'm perfectly fine with my current one.

But I really like your Idea and as soon as my new SD Card arrives I'm going to flash this ROM!

In the meantime I've still got some questions about the way your ext4 partition is used, compared to App2SD+.

You've gotta excuse me if my question sounds a bit noobish, but as I sad: I havn't switched from SD to NAND yet.

APP2SD+ still saves some of the User data on NAND, whereas your ROM saves everything except the pur ROM itself on the ext4 partition (apps, widgets, settings, mail accounts, etc.)!?!?

Which means, when I update a App2SD+ Rom my settings, widgets, mail accounts get lost. But with your way, I can update the ROM (with one of your newer builds) without loosing this stuff!?

Did I get that right??? Because this would really be a big advantage :-)

But even if I got that wrong, you still made an awsome job!

Cheers!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dvation-k:
Hmmz, 30min wait now and I got the question what my carrier was. Chose it and now it's back to the white HTC screen...

[HD2 Android NAND Development] ilijan:
So here's what I did that works perfectly:

Install VirtualBox

Install a linux variant inside virtualbox

Set up raw partition access in virtualbox. This is the key step. The user manual for virtualbox does a very good job explaining it, but I've noticed that to use this correctly everything must be run in administrator mode in windows.

Make a script to automatically mount the virtual raw partition (the ext4 partition)

Set up symlinks inside the linux os to point to the mounted partition

Set up samba in the virtual linux os to share the mounted partition

Set up the virtual network adapter in virtualbox so that the virtual machine has an ip address you can access (try pinging it from windows to test it). Make sure it's a static IP so you always know what it is.

Access your files through in windows using samba :)

(optional) turn off the linux os's gui to save memory and processing power, etc.

(optional) set up a network map so that the partition is always mapped to a specific drive letter (like Z:\
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
Looks like there are some incompatibilities. What is vendor of your card, and what class is it? For me it boots longer than other builds, but not for 40 mins )))

Basically APP2SD+ does copies almost every thing. But instead of mounting SD card partition as /data it creates symbolic links from NAND userdata partition to SD card. Main problem with that, Storage info in settings does not shows remaining space right. As for settings I cannot say for sure, I didn't used APP2SD+ for long, but look like no. Updates can still work, though.

This ROM places system in NAND but all userstorage partition on SD card. So all settings and apps will be saved intact after update, and info about space remaining shown right.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dvation-k:
I've got a Kingston 16GB Class 4 card. Setting it up is also not too fast yet...

[edit]

Just remembered I also have a Sandisk 8GB Class 2 card... I'll try it later if that works better!

Well, just installed it using the other SD-card and Android is way faster with this, so it seems I have an incompatible SD-card :( At least this 8GB will suffice for now...

[HD2 Android NAND Development] ClydeB1:
To those that have this rom working, is it normal during installation to cycle between the HTC Quietly Brilliant and the Android lockscreen or is this not right? It doesn't seem right so I've retried this a few times now. Got a 16gb sd card partitioned via Clockwork - 1024 ext and 256 swop. I have Task29'd twice and reinstalled magldr 1.11 (and yes I have 2.08.hspl and radio 2.15.50)

On the first install I got a whole host of FC's, so I re-ran everything after running Task29 and now get this continual loop.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] radiomike:
I've had a similar issue. Screen looks like a photo negative - everything that should be white is black appears white and vice versa. Other than that all seems fully functional. Seems to happen coming out of standby when the phone has been on for just over a day and a half. A reboot definitely sorts it, although on one occasion I left it without rebooting and it randomly came back normally later.

This is a known issue with the NAND roms.

Only solution is reboot....
