It's still too early for me to tell, but the early hiccups (compared to what I had in the past) with lag at times when accessing the apps (compared to NAND only) seems to make using NAND only a better deal. Of course, this applies to 1024-TMOUS only because of the space limitations on the EU512 HD2 phones....

@D.O., is this what you are basing your speed on? Technically, the bottleneck from accessing the SDcard as opposed to all in NAND makes a good argument in favor of the NAND only.

My concerns regard in saving all user info to SDcard, such as SMS/MMS stuff. I don't remember if this is currently happening, but if it does, I will go back to all NAND!!

The NAND memory comparison w/wo EXT4 partition is a 400MB difference. I still have 334MB left if I stay with all NAND, for sure. All I need is the SMS/MMS user info to save to SDcard, so it won't fill up the NAND space eventually....

When I try to play Dungeon Defenders either Android restarts or just goes back to the app drawer. So far that's the only game I have trouble running. Im very happy with this build
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jonny68:
Yesterday i had to uninstall angry birds as it wouldn't update in the market no matter how many times i tried by using Wi-Fi and Data so i unmounted the SD card and tried and it worked, i may try that with Crazy Snowboard (ive since uninstalled it) when i have free Wi-Fi available, if anyone tries this and it works in the meantime let me know.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mourad75:
For me the programs that do not work in this build 1.5, and previous 1.4 (and that worked great on version 1.3) are:

1 - Air Attack HD Lite.

2 - Can Knockdown 2 v1.00 (Not: Can Knockdown 1)

I noticed that the difference between these versions is:

V1.3 -> Build / 1.72.405.3 & Kernel / RAF 06.01 OC

V1.4 -> Build / 1.84.661.1 WWE TELUS base & Kernel / RAF 07.01 OC

V1.5 -> Build / 1.84.661.1 WWE TELUS base & Kernel / RAF 08.01 OC

And I encountered the same problem with ROM's:

imilka RAM's Desire HD v1.0 -> Build / 1.84.661.1 WWE TELUS base & Kernel / RAF 07.01 OC.

1.4 Font

Just download the original font from the first page as a zip file,the install it using CWR as you did the ROM. You just have 2 place it in the SD card when you mount it in CWR and flash it from there. Hope that helps :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Yes, exactly what I was basing it on. And for most users, the amount of free space in NAND is enough... so it makes for a decent experience!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ljjehl:
Including 512 users? That brings it under 100MB, kind of bringing me back to my Kaiser/Tilt days, where I was always trying to increase my NAND space to over 100MB (ony had 256MB to work with) :)

Still wonder if the SMS/MMS info goes to the SDcard.....??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
He didn´t mean us 512 users. Just you 1024 users. :D:p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
oh, i missed something here, my bad, noticed the option i mentioned implemented into the flash procedure now in 1.5

buh heh... i'm not an expert, we might have different understanding of clean flash, as i make sure when i do one is really clean and fresh :)

edit: off-topic, why does US always get it bigger than EU? most times TWICE the size? ALWAYS?!

oh! joke: a guy asks his best friend, a computer expert programmer to lend him some money. "How much" doest the expert ask. "like 500" answers our guy. "ok... we make it 512 to get a round value" computer expert says.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ljjehl:
You're making it sound like we are in our own "little world"...LOL :D

@RayHeath,

I have a small q. I was looking around for the config.txt in the ROM. Does the default setup add one?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
Just a joke bro, I love my HD2 EU 512!!! Especially with the CoreDroid 1.5!!! ;):D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ljjehl:
Probably because you were the first to get the HD2, and it was improved on before we got it? :D

It seems that everybody else (other countries) seems to get the bleeding edge stuff before the US gets it...in a way, I think that sucks! LOL
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ljjehl:
I know, I know.....I saw it coming....that what makes XDA devs a great place to surf!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
ah so first they test the stuff on other countries and then you get the perfected stuff... and they test you in the meantime.. test your patience :)

marketing... :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] lu71:
Through 1000, work .. I love that font .. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
tell me about it :) the first phone i had EVAR that i love more and more over time not less and less

anyway, over 24 hours from last flash, all good, all working (i'm not into games tho), sometimes a small lag on unlocking from lock screen, 23% battery remaining, normal usage... pretty good

best Coredroid ever :) (no wonder, is the latest :P)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Sorry, I meant 1024 devices, as that is what the NAND-only ROM is designed for.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] amitwats2004:
Just a joke to share -

"If you install Windows on your mobile, it will hang your phone immediately. But in android you have a app to do this"

Great build 1.5 fast,smooth, and stable :D

one question is it possible to back to stock theme ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ljjehl:
Well, after playing with the NAND+EXT4 a bit, I decided that it's not for me..

I have already reverted to the "NAND only" setup, the best setup for 1024 devices! There is just too much "bottleneck" involved to keep the EXT option. As for the 512 EU versions, I guess there isn't too many choices, so the data2EXT is probably the best option there.....

AS for the SMS/MMS stuff to SDcard, I remembered that it's usually done at the application level. I'll be checking this out.....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ClydeB1:
AFAIK - No, this rom is built specifically with lots of eye-candy and is themed. You would need to try another rom like rafpigna for example for a more stock like feel.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
You can usually install any desire theme. Don´t like CoreDroid Theme?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] trung8653820177:
hi anyone have issue with 1.5

i can not use my phone no more

it say ... activity phone (in process com. android.phone)is not responding

any one know how to fix this prolem i use us t mobile
[HD2 Android NAND Development] overshadowss:
:o .. actually the colors gives me a low quality feeling .. a great build like this deserve a better Icons collections and a better look.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] overshadowss:
no thanks I m happy .. I ll try to change the theme :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Ouch, that's the first time I've heard that comment about this ROM :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ladyboo:
ok excusse me for my english, but i bin trying something out with this great rom and somehow till now, its bin running great without any errors or lockups on my EURO HD DEVICE 512..what i did i downloaded the tmobile version of this great rom, i pull out some apk stuff i dont really need,like twitter and twitter wiged,maps, streets,picassa,linkedin,reader - eraderwidget -ereader library,and ereader vieuwer,titaniumbackup,gallery3d,duelfm,and quickoffice and talk..after that i flashed a 400mb with cwr and installed the tmobile version..all installed fine, the ony thing is that you wont have anymore space left on your phone..but it boots fine and all works ok, with out any errors..you can boot up your phone without a sd card inside of it.. to get more free space so you can install other files, jus put in a sd card and make a partition ext and it will reconise it as internal space..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] overshadowss:
:p only me !?

I m not talking about the ROM .. I m talking about the theme.. colors and icons.. etc ..(I like the lock screen :D) (nothing perfect) and its not a big deal at all..i m saying it would be better if we have another options like a stock non themed version.

Hi,

I had dl HD2_Core_Droid_Desire_HD_V1.5_Release_Version.zip

may i know how do i install it??

as last time i remember when i d/l other rom it contain a DAF file but this one dont have ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jirka607:

Post #5 has a link

sent from my hd2 desire hd
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
No, it shouldn't. When are you experiencing them (what I mean is what are you doing with the phone when you notice lag)? Did you install any new apps that may have led to this?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
you have to flash again, CLEAN FLASH (follow intructions and links in RayHeath signature)

use Titanium backup to restore your previously backups but restore only user apps manually app by app, and use google sync for your contacts

(proposal: i really think that this backup issue should be added to fishawy guide to backup, since sometimes the batch back/restore metod messes up things... or added to FAQ or put somewhere somehow into the fisrt page :) )

again, until Sergio gets some time to update full archive, please use the links into RayHeath signature ( Ray, post something!! :D ) and you will see links to DAF and instructions

edit: damn the tech support is fast! i feel useless! :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] harky:
oh thank but i got question

do i need to install ClockworkMod Recovery? i see that i need to as i alway use DAP to flash a rom never use ClockworkMod Recovery before
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Yes, these ROM's are flashed via CWM. You can use the DAF included with our releases to setup the partitions and CWM initially. Then, for future releases you just flash the ROM's via CWM.

Sometimes, :) And I mean sometimes as in fast, not as is in you're useless!! :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
lag happens usually when you unlock screen?

wifi on (without wifi sleep policy), automatic sync on, apps running in background (i use some)

is a random "hickup" happening when you unlock your screen or open something right in the middle of something "automatically updating/syncing itself" over wifi/signal.

and after some small simple tests i found out that is more a hardware, like a refresh thing rather that soft related issue... is feels like the phone is saying "one moment please i'm on the other line"

dunno... might be wrong
[HD2 Android NAND Development] harky:
ahhh i see . thank aahah

partitions ext4 was done last time , just abit not sure abt CWM
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
unless you task29 your phone, is still there :)

and if you used a DAF before, just use that one if you need to (i mean the files that you downloaded with previous rom)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] robson10:
After a month on Rafdroid i decided to go back to Coredroid and wow....this 1.5 is really fast, no problems at all, even installing from market gives no lags, great work team. Do the themed markets work on 1.84, i like black better.

Is there an option to let the hardkey buttons light on? On Rafdroid you can place a config.txt on your sd card to use old light driver or not. Is there something similar for Coredroid?

Thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Are you using the standard release or the TMOUS one? Just curious because I don't have the issue you are reporting and I do the same sort of things you do.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] stefan_g2:
a huge thanks for that brilliant work.

this rom is smooth, fast and stable.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
standard :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Do you mean to leave the hardware key lights on permanently? Or, are your lights not coming on at all when you press the buttons? My lights seem to work how I expect them to... just curious.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
I doubt it could be related but that is the only difference I can think of at the moment as I am on the TMOUS build.The only real difference is the SD-EXT partition. I know it can cause some lag when installing apps from the market but I don't know about what you are talking about, as I don't run that version, and also don't have the lag issues.

Maybe some of the other beta team members can chime in...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
the lag i mention is almost null, it happens only seldom and it feels like frames dropped from smooth run, and only happens when you try to touch and do something exactly in the right second when something is really writting stuff around, like market updates auto sync, mail incoming, etc.

also i think is related to the SD card, the wear, the data transfer rate between phone memory and SD, since the ext is on the SD and things related to hardware read/write exchange

SD card seems to count alot, normal "cheap, you cand find them anywere" SDs trend to be prone to this small lag issue in conjunction with all other stuff mentioned.

I am using Desire HD ... and I flashed HD2 CoreDroid v1.5 on my HD2.

It is SO GOOD .... till I am seriously considering selling my Desire HD.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Digital Outcast:
Are you using the CoreDroid series on your Desire HD? It should be as good, if not better!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] robson10:
I mean when screen on, buttonligths on too.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
don't sell! flash Desire CoreDroid Series on the Desire HD! :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
as they are buttons, they have a timeout. usually you press them and then use the touchscreen to navigate your phone and not touch the buttons, they go off after like 5-10 seconds...

might be solved as a vanity issue in kernels or in builds (experts know better) but my opinion is that it may look fancy to remain on while screen is lit, but with a bit of battery drain issue.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
Well, so far and after reading all this posts in order to find issues to fix after upgrading to 1.5 and taking note of all of this advices and fixes, I can say that I'm having 2 issues about the camera and the camcorder:

1.- Camera: respects the time review that you can choose whatever time you pick, in 1.4v you can't do that, but when you want to share that picture it force closes, you have to go to your Gallery album and do it from that

2.- Camcorder, sound and image is great, but now video is getting behind the sound, in 1.4 the sound was behind the video.

The boot time is amazingly short.

No Robot voice at all, and the sound level during calls is amazing, clear, loud and comfy, nothing annoying at all.

Weather update works after the update Ray post, Thanks Ray!!

Icons and everything else looks amazing. Thanks to the Core Cell Team for this amazing ROM, I honestly don't know how you can get this better in case you are thinking in making another upgrade, this is awesome.

About the camera, is not big deal for me, I can deal with that with no problems, is just one more step, the camcorder is the only thing I would expect to get a fix or upgrade, I use it a lot for my kid and family times that comes on unexpected times when you don't have your camcorder ready.

So far is everything fellows, if I found something else, I'll let you know. Thanks.;
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Devils1stBorn:
Ok, so I finally got the Rom installed. Only issue is that all of the prior video which worked in clean Droid (wmv) no longer plays, as if its not supported. Just a file with an exclamation on the file icon. Work around or legitimate bug? Also, I'm using 1.4, wasn't sure about 1.5 because of the "rushed" comment behind that release.

Thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Bingoig11:
You can close your eyes and flash to 1.5, this ROM is the best ever :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] robson10:
Btw.... crazy snowboard works on my phone
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
Agree 100% :p:D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
hmm... no issues there, i do have videos that i recorded and other that i copied when i was shortly testing other builds and older roms (not the clean Droid tho), they all play on 1.5 no problem... didn't test on 1.4

also the "rushed" part of the 1.5 reffers to the uploading, as Sergio only forgot to upload all the files needed for the release into one archive, but the release itself, the work on it, the beta tests made are not rushed :)

and it is better than 1.4, so you can safely get to 1.5 and test the video issue.

EDIT: ok, i can partially confirm the video issue... happens to have here all the videos i ever made, there is some videos (3 of them, all ofer 150MB) recoded by me with the pnone sometime in november, that i can'r play. i was on the SD version of CoreDroid back then. the funny thing is that i have another video, one made on the exact same date with one of the 3, (20 minutes earlyer, fireworks night:P) that plays, is like 50 MB

[HD2 Android NAND Development] DikoMike:
doing a bit of research about the video playback issue i found out that the issue is a bit more extensive and not related to rom.

a lot o people report the same problem after upgrading from android 2.1 to 2.2

example (not even related to HTC):

another:

so it seem to be a bit more into it... i will research the matter further and report my findings
[HD2 Android NAND Development] busterdan:
A good rom... for me there seem to be a couple of issues.

Personally I don't find it smooth at all... not sure if thats because of the various background apps I have running but my EU 512mb HD2 often locks up and is unresponsive.

I get alot of force closes... I think someone has mentioned Words with Friends already - it's almost unplayable unfortunately.

Battery life for me is not good... today with just average use, my phone was dead after just 7 hours, bit strange that though because I am only showing around 3.7-3.9 volts consumption.

A big bonus though is the almost instant GPS fix.. I'll hold on for the next update and see if the locking/battery issues improve.

Thanks to all the Devs!

Video playback update.

Ok,.so you have two "gallery" apps. The one that has a yellow horizon icon is the one that can play videos. Only thing is the icon is transparent, you can't get an idea of what you're looking at before selecting the file. The other gallery app shows the exclamation I explained before. If I use dual file app, I can also select and watch video clips.

ext partition

Hi. Have been using coredroid (great ROM thanks) for a few weeks now and twice after my phone crashed the ext partition was missing on reboot.

When the phone boots up I get a message saying I have no space and I cannot mount /sd-ext in clockwork recovery. I can create a new partition in CWR and this will work but I lose space as the original ext partition is still out there somewhere.

The only way I can get the space back is to delete MBR and repartition the SD card and this of course wipes all my data.

Anyone else having this problem or know of a way to recover the original ext partition? Have tried to find info on this elsewhere but so far no luck.

This is first time I have used a ROM with ext partition so not sure if it's related to this ROM or just a general android/hd2/ext partition problem.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aortega:
That joke was funny dude:D, there's a lot of new people in this just like me. I have flashed sergio's rom since 1.3v and I've never had a big problem thanks to all of the instructions and everything seems to be very intuitive to me, but there are people very clueless about flashing roms, I will appreciate from all of you not to forget about all of us please, there will be always something new for us that could be very simple to all of you (expert people) , again, Thanks a lot to Sergio and all his team for this wonderful experience in something that was completely new to me since January of this year, I could never imagine messing with the phone's operating system by myself.
