Hi and thanks for the hint. Unfortunately I already tried this several times before and it does not help at all. I completely wiped my hd2 before flashing v8 and restored my things using titanium backup, so this should not be a matter of left over junk. I have been on all Gbx roms since pongster started here and have never had any issues after flashing.

Anyway, if I am the only one I will try to wipe and flash again this evening - although I tried twice yesterday ;)

Lets see if that helps.

Regards
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
What did you restore via TB? System settings?

EDIT: lol, the above post is referring to robo voice.

I have it as well (with audible touch turned on). Survived several reboot attempts. Is it still broken with touch tones?

On my v7 build I use to get the edge connectivity earlier, but past 2 days am not able to connect to the internet...no "E" icon help pls!

I have the APN mentioned properly.

Does somebody now if there is , or will be a posibility to load the dive in powered off mode... in these days it is always turning on automatically when i power it off and then plug in the power cable.. :confused:

no mms

unfortunately still no mms :(

I would like to update to v8 from v7 without any wiping of my data and settings.

What is the recommended way? I already make a backup through CWM.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
Its a workaround in mgldr we might wait a long time for fix, clk (alternative to mgldr) can charge battery while phone is off but it doesnt work out of the box. You need patched kernel to run clk and rmnet is not working currently. Maybe pongster could look into this.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Lokiller:
That guy Did it again!!!!

Whaaooo^^

Thank's again...New version...Same thing...Everything Work for me...

Fast and Flawless!!!

:):D:):):D:):):D:)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
Works for others...check your Apn.

i installed v8. it was working great last night, but today i woke up and found it saying there was fault with "com.android.phone". what does that mean? when i said force close, it just kept opening and opening again.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mrtrevelyan:
I sometimes get this problem when rebooting v6 of this build.

Do you have a working Ext partition on your SD card? If so, I believe it's just the SD card not loading up in time at boot (you may notice when that multi-FC error happens, that you do not see the "preparing SD Card" icon appear in the notification bar).

Just my guess. Holding down the power button and trying to push that "power off" button (avoiding/closing all the FC dialogue windows), or - failing that - just pulling the battery, and rebooting normally usually does the trick for me.

Hi pong will you be supporting CLK?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
If the kernel supports it, it should work....

There is something quite odd with this ROM.

Did a backup from V7, then updated to V8 with CCM without problems.

After booting in V8 my data connection didn't work anymore. Checked the APN settings, called the provider to make sure that my settings where correcct, without result.

Tried flashing a different radio, without result. Did a reflash to the latest radio, without result.

Did a wipe and tried a clean V8, without result

Did a restore to V7 from previously made backup, still no data connection...

Someone the same problem?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] lebobo:
Same problem with MMS and 3G data : provider = Proximus Belgium

2G works fine !
[HD2 Android NAND Development] thomas_pieps:
With Mobile Vikings no connection 2G also, bummer :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] lebobo:
My Radio is 2.15.50.14, my MAGLDR is 1.13, my ClockworkMod is 1.3 and my ROM is HyperdroidGBX v8...

I just made some tests :

1. network connexion 2G : call works fine (signal about 100%)

2. network connexion 3G : call works but not goog signal (signal about 50%)

3. network connexion 2G : data do not work (APN recreated : same problem)

4. network connexion 3G : data do not work (APN recreated : same problem)

This afternoon, I'll test with HyperdroidCM7 instead of HyperdroidGBX... Maybe it'll work with this ROM...

Try app MyPhoneExplorer from Market. Great way to sync info to computer. And for those like me who sync info with Exchange etc. this app is great for sending SMS from computer. Even sync's through WiFi!

[HD2 Android NAND Development] mimsan69:
3. No, if you don't want to go back to your old ROM/fresh install.

4-6. Yes, to be sure nothing interferes. Probably not necessary from fresh install, but it doesn't take a long time, so why not?

7-8. Yes, if you didn't copy the zip from PC etc.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mimsan69:
1. Ah, ugly GPS icon... :) Wheelchair is a minor problem.

2. I see. V4 and through to V7 had red leds for me even though I fully wiped for the most of them. Green is nicer though!

3. Tried calibrating with app Compass and app Compass & Level with no luck. Reinstalling Google Sky Map and rebooting did it though! Strange as it never happened to me before...

4. :(

5. I've blamed them. There are several threads already at Google's forums which I've starred. Will probably soon be fixed.

Keep up the good work and support.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mimsan69:
I updated from v7 to v8 without wiping data and settings and with no problems due to the update. After backuping just flash away!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mimsan69:
I can confirm MMS working in Sweden. Have you made sure Data is enabled and APN is correct in Network Settings? I remember that at a few times I had to manually select the correct network operator to get it to work. Might be an issue with the automatic network operator chooser...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] peja_:
what exactly was your problem? i have issue with sky map too.

when i start the app, its kinda wobbly, it won't stop movine even though the phone is on a table... i did try reinstalling, but it didn't help...gonna try it again, just was wondering if you had the same issue?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ugumba:
90MB system partition seems OK

I just updated V8 over V7, with this system size.

The first boot took a long time (~10 minutes). Normal? I have a lot of apps on sd-ext, so I suspect a lot of time was spent scanning these.

LauncherPro widgets were invalidated, and DPI was reset to 167 (expected).

~2.8 MB left in /system.

Everything seems to work fine at first glance.

V8 seems much snappier.

Is there a fixed-width font installed? Text editors and Terminal all use a proportional font, which is a bit of a bummer (also in V7). Any quick fixes?

This ROM (V7 and V8) is the first I've used with which Tasker is able to control mobile data connection (Tasker says this works best on CDMA phones, mine is GSM). Since data is expensive for me, I can now have a widget to turn on data and 3G, and automatically turn data off and revert to 2G when the screen turns off. Just great!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shaikh_javed:
on v7 build data connection is not working...anybody else with the same problem?

Hi pongster can you help out this issue....?

Thanks for the great rom though
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
After update, first boot is long as dexopt is rewriting and optimizing the dex files in dalvik-cache. :)

You can change the fixed width font (DroidSansMono.ttf) by copying the ttf to the fonts directory. :)

v7 data works for me, as does v8... check if your provider is having issues as some of them do and then tell you its ROM related to get you off their customer support's back :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mimsan69:
Mine was wobbly too and didn't respond correctly to me moving and tilting the phone in the air. I didn't try to place my phone on the table so I don't know if there was a problem with that.

Try the "Compass" and "Compass & Level" apps to calibrate. Might be what did it for me, don't know. Ultimately the reinstall and reboot did the thing, but it just might have been the calibrating and rebooting instead. I also used both apps so I can't tell which one did it.

Anyhow... now it works perfectly.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] FrAsErTaG:
Does your kernel support it? I can patch it... But would prefer it was supported out of the box
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
I use Tytung's R6 so its probably not supported at the moment... I think he's trying to add support to it but have not really had a chance to test...

My dream setup is actually CLK then CWM so I can just do what I'm doing now and get a "native, open" Android device... :)

Don't have a Windows box around so I'm not sure how I can flash the latest CLK to test... R6 and the HyperKernel I use on my CM7 builds support PPP though (just need to add the ppp script in init.d, which I have ready but haven't had time to test) :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] peja_:
i tried it all, still wobbly...im starting to think its a normal behaviour lol

can you try one thing for me? start google sky app, put the phone on a flat surface and see if its wobbly or not moving at all...

cancel that...it appears that one has to do the 8-figure-pattern-thingy before using sky map. its like i have some magnetic interference here...

thanks for help :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Protoo:
Hey pongster can you post me a detailed construction how to flash the v 8 ?

kind regards
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gizmolisa2006:
your settings are quite obviously wrong then, as mine and countless others on here have no problems whatsoever?

do wish sometimes ppl would acknowldge that it might be their setup that causes problems, instead of posting in a way that implies there is a fault with the ROM.

others are misled then...its infuriating.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
My thoughts exactly...

In my time cooking ROM's and supporting them, 95% of the problems are between the monitor and the chair... ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] thomas_pieps:
In the last posts you will find 2 persons with the same problem in the same country on total different providers (read different network).

So this isn't provider related, both providers (Base & Proximus) confirm this.

By both users the APN settings have been verified and recreated without succes.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
So is it immediately ROM related? Why does it work for me and others?

Check the apn as the apn list xml I use may not contain all the latest changes networks make around the world. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
Its on the first page.. I use that guide myself. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
CM7 is different because its CM7... if you don't know what's different in it, you should probably stick to GBX... :)

Seriously, CM7 has more cutting edge code while GBX is more AOSP plus *some* CM7 functions (Notif Power Widget, Reboot Menu, etc.)

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Charmacas:
A question to all:

Why did you choose Hyperdroid GBX or CM7?

Pongster said that if you like to customize, CM7 would be the better option.

So I don't want to customize much and I really like (as we all do I think) speed and smoothness. So I tend to use the GBX version but I am not sure and would like to hear some opinions. :)

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] renna1992:
i tried both of them, was sticking with gbx until version 7, and i think i don't have to say much, but the rom is just great. its the smoothest and fastest rom i've ever tried. yesterday i wanted a change and tried the cm7 1.0 and this rom is also great from what i can say until now. battery life looks great, on the gbx version it is just awesome. i'd suggest you try them both for a few days (maybe 1 day, maybe 7, whatever you like) to see thats the better one for you.

they are both just great!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shaikh_javed:
Yes...I flashed the v8 and the data connection is working so far...however on v7 it stopped after couple of days
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shaikh_javed:
Great job Pongster indeed!!!.

One question...why does my hd2 freezes while downloading apps from the market?

I'm having the EU HD2.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
Not sure... how many apps are being downloaded? It usually slows down as more CPU is used by the install process. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shaikh_javed:
2 or 3 and sometimes it even freezes with single download
[HD2 Android NAND Development] shaikh_javed:
2 or may be 3, but it even freezes with single download, any specific reason for this?

Thanks in advance.

Nothing negative to say, it's perfect now, even for german users ;) u did it, and now i'm away from MDJ build!

Dialer force close / battery % changes on reboot / app drawer disappeared /

Overall V8 is great just like V7. Here is some feedback after being on the build for about 24 hours. I did a completely clean install (wipe data, wipe cache, wipe davlik cache, wipe batter stats) and formatted the sd card. I'm on an unmodified 150 MB CWM partition - all stats in signature are accurate.

EDIT: The only thing funky about my setup is I have an ext 4 partition on my sd card but don't need it cause I'm on a T-mobile HD2. G parted will not recognize the partition so I have no way to delete it. So when on my first boot I booted without the sd card in the phone and I deleted the 2 apps2sd scripts out of the init.d directory and then on the next reboot put the sd card in the phone after it was done booting. I can't see how this would cause the below problems but didn't wan to fail to mention it.

Dialer Force close:

Unfortunately I don't have a log cat. But I made a call after maybe my 4th reboot (I get robot voice on first call after reboot). So I tried to hit speaker phone to so I could get rid of robot voice but the screen wasn't responsive. I had to end the call with hard key and then I made another call and heard nothing even though the other party picked up and when I pressed the speaker phone button the bar lit up on the speaker phone icon while pressing it but it wouldn't stay lit and then the screen became unresponsive and when I pressed force close the screen and hard keys were completely unresponsive and I had to reboot by pulling the battery. It only did this once.

Battery % different on reboot:

On my last reboot my battery was at 83% and then when I rebooted it was on 95%. Any suggestions to calibrate or fix this. I've read several procedures but they all have slightly different steps so I don't know what the best practice is to calibrate the battery. I know it involves wiping batterystats.bin and completely charging and discharging but don't know what order to go in.

App drawer disappeared:

Randomly the app drawer just disappeared from my home screen so I had to reboot. Maybe is an ADW issue?

Email Notifications:

I've had this issue on pretty much all android builds but I don't like any audio notifications when I get emails but do like visual notifications so I just set the ring tone to silent. I feel like this setting doesn't save. I can't totally pin it down but if I reboot it reverts back to default ringtone and I feel like even if I adjust the volumes in the settings menu then that also makes the email notification ringtone revert back to default. Any suggestions?

Email Signature won't save:

Also, my email signature won't save. It goes back to blank every time I reboot

This ROM is still light years ahead of all the others and super fast but I guess I'm just trying to make it truly perfect. Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] heyman123:
Just wanted to drop a line to express my Thanks on such a detailed setup tutorial and such a great looking rom in general! I'm an EvO user myself, but did this for my sister's HD2 so that she would have Android running as well. I gotta say, I am loving the rom so much so that I wished there was a port for this to the EvO so I can use it as well! Thanks again!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
1. Did you have audible touch tones disabled? That could be the cause.. but it works here with no lags so I'm not too sure...

2. Battery Calibration is done as you describe... full charge (complete) then delete batterystats.bin

3. App drawer? You must have hidden it accidentaly and you can only see the ADW dockbar... play with the settings...

4. Email Notifs... no idea as I don't use it... I use Gmail. :)

APN

I can't edit my APN. I can go online but Not edit my perfect eplus settings.i only see APNs called simple and tmobile US, do YouTube know a solution?

And tried Tor edit the tmobile APN but after saving it disappear ...so i cant use tether and some apps with actual settings

Where is the battery bin file?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] heyman123:
To create a new APN, in that same screen where you saw the "Simple" and "T-Mobile US", press middle button (menu key) to get an option to create a new APN

Version 8

I have the robot voice for each first call after boot. The speaker on/off switch solves the pb for next calls but the pb comes back again after reboot.

After a call, phone slows down. When i try to enter a new number, virtual keyboard is unresponsive or very very slow.

I reinstalled the rom 3 times. Each time i've resetted dalvick, cache, data and fix-permissions
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pongster:
Uncheck audible touch tones in Settings Sounds for now :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sotong:
Try reflashing your radio, if you are using the 2.15 as per your signature. It happened to me once when i was reflashing V7. Robot voice, and disappearing keypads. The problem disappeared when i reflashed my radio. Hope it helps u
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mfish123:
@pongster thanks for the quick response....everything makes sense. after I delete batterystats.bin after full charge do I need to them fully discharge our is that not necessary?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sabeeshedp:
i would like to have the black keyboard like in V6.. anybody pls help in getting that...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atsavlis:

Guys this is a dumb question, but I accidently deleted the menu icon on the dock on the bottom of the screen, and I dont know how to get it back... and cant figure out any other way of getting into the menu.

Long press on the home screen.

Chose Launcher actions.

Chose Open/close app drawer.

Then hold it down and drag it to the spot you want on the dock.

You should modify the v8 highlights on the first page ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] fhasovic:
Just push LatinIME.apk from v6 to system/app/ ;-)

I do. Wheelchair here to now (1st time on this build that I see this, from v2 till v8). :-(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] thomas_pieps:
It is not 100% ROM related but radio communication to ROM. Found the anwser in a different thread.

The solution is:

- power off phone,

- power back on,

- go to settings, wireless & com,

- Mobile networks

- Search for new networks

- Press choose auto

- power down

- power on

PS: the description is not perfect, did the post from my phone without the initial thread.

And everything works fine, does this solution make any sense to you (could it be related to something?)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MIG_30:
hi im on v8 and i have an airplane, but the gps icon looks like a cloud and the flashlight icon is like the screen icon in settings

is there a way to replace them with the icons from v7?

In regards to # 4 I switched to K-9 mail and it does save my signature and ringtone preferences for my POP3 work email account. It's free on the market - hope that helps someone else
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Yom:
Agreed! I AM SO OUTRAGED!!!! I mean, perish the thought a simple graphical pun would force someone to choose to be offended. Oh, the humanity!. The icon should not be a plane either, as that has the potential to offend those who hated the "Airplane!" movies.

How about this, I propose the Airplane mode icon be an underground solitary confinement lead-lined 2x3 prison cell (***** not included). Nobody cares about offending people in the hole, right?

Pongster, I humbly request you to get cracking on this, as it is a critical issue.

Yes, I am being sarcastic. Hope this post brings smiles to whoever reads it.

I searched through some, but I'm curious if anyone has some ones they've recently found, or would like to share. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Gary.M:
It might if you were the one in the wheelchair.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gokkko:
Hello pongster,

do you see any chance to get TitaniumBackup to restore the app data. I posted this problem for some previous version, someone else posted it for v8 too.

This is the only reason I'm not using it as my daily ROM.
