I tried RP 1.9 OC and had the first time no soft boot after copy a folder with 130MB from pc to the phone.

RP kernels are here
[HD2 Android NAND Development] perfectknight75:
Thanks for your help too but fingers crossed :D Ray has just fixed it for me with the factory reset and change of Kernel
[HD2 Android NAND Development] qaliza:
Truly, v1.6 is one of the greatest ROMs I ever tried. Really a MASTERPIECE.

Just one thing

RTL activation for the arabic language requires some modifications in the framework.jar.

These modifications did not work on your ROM (boot loops). Although it worked on other DHD ROMS with same base build as yours TELUS 1.84 such as imilka's RAM DHD and others. It even worked on the new incredible S wwe version.

Any advice?

Thank you
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
I would suggest that you PM Fishawy... He´s the arabic language ROM expert. Or wait till he logs in... he never misses a post. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dougi:
hi all,

if i install CORE DROID fonts ( don't like the standart one ) will it be oK, especially on the lock screen ..

thanks..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
not sure dougi, give it a shot.... ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dougi:
flash almost done, on 1.5 the date on the lockscreen was not aligned.. i use widgetlocker wich is a great app..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] marscandybars:
Nope. I have never overclocked. Waiting did nothing. I had to exit the program to the home screen and wait for my autokill program to shut down the messaging app or manually shut down the messaging app. Then when i reopen it it starts working again. I guess I'm noticing this more than most cuz text is my main source of communication? But it does happen quite frequently.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
I just found a thread that might help you... here... Let me know. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] djtheraven:
So maybe its the rap 1.9 kernel? Maybe I should go back to the 1.7...cause that was in 1.4?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jonny68:
Unfortunately i have not been able to restore all my apps,.i had them all backed up with Titanium Backup PRO but it wouldn't restore them all so i had to manually restore them via astro, ive also somehow lost about 25 apps which ill have to download again the apk's are no longer there for those but amazingly enough for the remaining apps they are.

The whole process has been a nightmare for me to be honest, it took me most of yesterday to actually get the build on my phone, no matter what i done when i went to mounts and storage (i tried on 2 different PC's and my laptop) it wouldn't recognize my phone so i ended up taking the SD card out,putting it into the laptop and copying the zip file onto the card and then putting the SD card back in and finally that worked but i had other issues as well and to be honest id be very reluctant to do a clean install again after yesterdays nightmare, even today i have to spend a lot of time getting my phone back to what it was previously and ive to download loads of apps again.

Of course this is nothing against this build or anything but i just thought i would tell people about this trouble i had, ive not had a proper chance to test this build yet ill report back when i eventually get everything 100%.

AGAIN i must stress that it's worth stating if anyone is having trouble when they come to the stage "mounts and storage" to just take out the SD card from your phone and into your laptop/PC and copy the zip file across and then pop it back into your phone and continue with the instructions and you should be fine.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
That why I wanted to show you the link DJ ... For everyone, if you are having hardware problems with the build, then go back to the last kernel that worked for you. :)

Glad you got it worked out Jonny. :) But that´s wierd with Titanium Backup...:confused::eek: Never saw that happen before. But I´m sure it´ll work out for ya. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EfendY:
does anyone has the problem that talkback keyboard crashes down? everytime when i want to make the talkbak keyboard tutorial i get an error message at the second or third step where i only can shutdown the keyboard...

i don't know if this is a known issue but i couldn't find anything when i searched for this...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] djtheraven:
What would that change in this rom?would it be slower?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
No, but I have noticed that the HD2 isn´t overall the same... Where a kernel might work fine for one... doesn´t mean that it will work the same for the other. :) Go ahead and give it a shot, if it doesn´t work, you can always flash back to the 1.9oc... ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] djtheraven:
Is the 1.7 still on the site?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
Here ya go... :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jonny68:
I cant understand it as Titanium Backup is usually fine, when i went to restore all my apps only about 70% of them did restore, bizzarely enough when i go into system / restore in Titanium i can see my apps but there is no option to restore the app which i cannot understand i had to go into astro to install some others but not all my apps where there either which again is a mystery as im usually very careful when it comes to backing up, im a bit gutted ive lost a good few apps some i can remember others i cant remember off hand,also ive to go somewhere theres free Wi-Fi to download the data needed for my Gameloft GD games as that too is gone but the actual apk of the games are still there.

ANYWAY i suppose the main thing is that i have got 1.6 on my phone and should be back to normal soon, ill not be flashing Gingerbread for a good while yet im just gonna stick with this build, the thoughts of doing another clean install fills me with dread after yesterdays nightmare!!!:eek::D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
Just a question... Did you copy your complete backup folder to pc, then back?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] qaliza:
I know about it. There are several ways to do it but non of them works, that is the strange thing..

Thanks any way :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
Ok, I´ll keep searching, but Fishawy is definately the person to talk to... :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Ventura8:
bring the phone in for servicing (to repair it)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dirtysanchez82:
I flashed clean from 1.4 to 1.6 and here are my results:

It runs great and very smooth, can't compare it with the versions before! But battery life is just illegally awesome. Plugged off this morning 9h with 90% and now at 21.30h its at 30% after surfing a lot, playing with the rom, installing apps and being online via w-LAN almost all the time playing with it and even after watching an episode of stargate universe online! ;-)

So far, so good. Thanks A LOT for your great work CoreDroid members. I will report bugs when found.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] prisoner881:
Liking the new 1.6 on my TMOUS HD2, but I found at least one consistent problem: copying anything substantial from a PC to the SD card over USB causes the phone to reboot.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? I know I can take the card out, put it in a reader, copy stuff to it, and put it back in the phone. That's not the point. The phone shouldn't reboot just because you're copying a 200MB file to it.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dirtysanchez82:
Same here. I tried to copy via ad recovery by mounting my SD card. That worked for me, but honestly I'm not sure if it works with a bigger amount of MBs...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
Try the last kernel that worked for you... :) I have attached a link for Rafpigna´s Kernels in my signature. I think this will work.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Faktorx2:
Hi, i have buy a new Sd-card. Wen i change the card must i reflash coredroid ?

Sent from HTC DHD
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
I've had that issue with v1.3 till v1.6 and kernels raf 1.6 till 1.9. Hopefully changing kernels will work for you. I still have to use SD card reader when I want to copy a large amount of Mb's.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
Yes, clean install again :D Unless you have a TMOUS version.... I suppose
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Faktorx2:
Work an clockrecover or must real new install ?

Sent from HTC DHD
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
You can also do a CWM backup, copy then the backup folder to your PC, change SD cart, do fresh install steps till you come to "mount and storage", copy backup folders from PC to SD card, and restore in CWM.

To be honest, I haven't done it by myself, but it should work.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pedmond:
Yup, I'm having this problem as well. Actually, it's more or less the ONLY problem. :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
I have a euro HD and never had a problem copying gigabytes of data! Just damn slow with the partition!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pedmond:
Wanna swap phones? :p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
Again evidence that no HD2 is the same. I have an EU version also. Bought it June last year. This is my only issue with v1.6 so far. But as said before, I can live with it :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] harky:
i had this issue "screen of death" on 1.5.. is this solve on 1.6?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
I wouldn't do that. It is a UK version. Hard Key buttons have been swapped :D Is like driving left instead of right ;)

No just kidding.

Many guys do have this copy problem. So if you don't you're indeed lucky.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] M.F.:
VPlayer crashing

Hi,

I try to use the VPlayer.

Had previously Revolution 2.6 HD on it and the trial version worked just fine.

With this ROM I find the VPlayer not in the market.

I then installed the version 0.7.7.b7. So far the only the start. However, it crashes immediately when you selects a file.

Is it the ROM or the player? I have also purchased the Unlocker. No change.

Greeting M.F.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
The only way to find out is to do a clean install of V1.6. Many of us didn't have SOD issues with v1.5, so it is hard to say if your problem have been solved.

Just go for it. This build rocks :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] magoo1275:
Are you shure this isn´t a radio problem ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] RayHeath:
Vplayer worked for me, but I have the payed app. :) Not sure about the free one.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Xoombie:
Every Time I transfer data to my HD2 comes up a Screensaver. Can i deactivat it?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] harky:
which version should i use??

i forget my last update version but it was use when it still on SD android

dont mind if u can teach me where to check the version too hehe
[HD2 Android NAND Development] M.F.:
I have paid the Unlocker. It is not the program. It just seems to be an unlock code.

I need even before the working trial version. Which is then released with the Unlocker.

Which version do you have? Can you send the apk file. In the market we offer only the Unlocker.

I have a little feeling that it might have to do with me even with the phone memory.

Greeting M.F.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nieves53:
Good day Ray, Ray like we were talking yesterday, I got my new phone n flash everything, it all went smooth no issues flashing, but if you remember I wanted to try the partition n swap tru CWR. Well I did but one thing, on my other hd2 I use cmy's daf and I have more internal space, on my new tmous hd2 I have around 174 on a fresh flash??? I don't see the partition I created tru CWR. Also I did not notice an increase of RAM. What do you think??

Edit: some of the members mentioned that doing a swap greater then 0 will increase RAM
[HD2 Android NAND Development] prisoner881:
Eh, it's not so bad of a thing that it's worth juggling kernels. I took the opportunity with 1.6 to do a full Task29 NAND wipe *and* format my SD card. I was copying back a lot of pictures, music, and movies and that's when it bombed. However, everything's all copied back so I don't think I'll be running into this situation again soon. I can wait for either 1.7 or 2.0 whenever they make an appearance :).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
According to your signature, you have the correct radio so it isn't this
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Could actually be your PC and USB drivers and not the phone or a dodgy SD card. Just a thought.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daman215:
i keep seeing you guys saying the phone reboots when copying files i been copying big files since i got 1.6 no reboots again like i said before let the phone sit after flashing i let it sit over night after flashing and dont have the problems you guys are talking about my only problem wich i fix was the hardware keys this build to me is perfect i dont have no battery drain and i put it threw the test yesterday a surf the net for 1 hour full battery from 9oclock till 10 my battery went from 100% to 92% thats a whole hour wow again flash and let it sit and get to know the phone i just read about six pages of things not going on with me hell ya saying so much im tryna find those problem so i can knock them out but they not there
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daman215:
i dont think theres going to be a 1.7 this is the last
[HD2 Android NAND Development] LaLey:
Is it possible to use the themes/skins function from htc?

I really love this ROM but i dont like that "colorful" icons everywhere in the rom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daman215:
you could but it wont change your icons
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gunneredw:
is there a way of keeping the LED notification to stay a solid green rather than flash a few times then go out when a new sms is recevied, like 1.5 had.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] enrierosi:
Hi to all,after two days of hard work with this great Rom I've only two annoying issues,the browser not work at 100% with both flash player (10.2 10.1****)someone sites not work fine or cause the browser crashing. The second issue with the custom ringtone and notification sound because in random times was missed and return back the default tone... The sound issue compare both with zedge or if i copy the new ringtone or notification sound to folder system/media/sound... Without this two defect this Rom for me is really perfect! Great compliments for the developers!!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
Hi Daman.

With respect, your input in this thread is really great, but the disk drive copy issue is not (always) a matter of asking maximum performance of the rom immediately after flashing.

In my case I always let it settle down a couple of hours or even a whole night as you do.

But I have the issue already the last 3 or 4 versions. And I always format my SD card before flashing using Panasonic sd formatter.

Of course it could be sd card related. In any case I have it with both my 8 and 16 Gb class 4.

Regards
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Try LED me Know from the market. Works a treat.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sandymac:
Got to agree about Flash Player. I bit the bullet and upgraded to 1.6 in the hope that this would be solved but still experiencing problems. Only browser I found to be reliable is Skyfire.

By the way, still can't use BBC iPlayer. Works after a fashion (unreliable playback) with Flash Player 10.1 but not 10.2. Reverted to using Skyfire as this does work.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daman215:
dont use panasonic sd formatter ive have that program and it screwed up one off my cards use easeus partition manager its better i find it hard to believe if you have this problem why not everyone only some have it wich means its somthing on you guys end that making your phone reboot when you copy things use the program easeus and delete every partition and recreate the patition fat 32 after that format your card again it has somthing to do with your card not reading the amount of space you have when copying so the phone reboots i had that problem in 1.5 but thats was when i pulled my card out the reader before my pc said it was safe also connect you card to pc and right click and check the box scan and fix for bad sectors somthing in your card is telling the phone theres not enough space when it is i just had that same exact problem again in 1.5 but when i did the things i stated it went away
[HD2 Android NAND Development] prisoner881:
Dude, with all due respect, try punctuation. Periods, commas, semicolon's...anything. Your post is much more readable if it's not one long sentence.

Anyways...

It's not just this one fellow who has the rebooting problem. I have it. Others have it and have reported it in this thread. It may not be widespread but it's certainly not isolated. I have two SD cards, one 8GB and one 16GB, and I get this behavior with both of them if I do a USB copy to the SD card while connected as "Disk Drive." Both cards were formatted with one partition at max size, FAT32, 4k cluster size. I can repeatedly and reliably crash the phone by copying either a few large files (five or six files at 100MB+ each) or a moderate number of medium-sized files (30-40 files at 5MB-20MB each). Crashes only happen with writes; reads of arbitrary numbers of files of arbitrary size have never crashed the phone yet.

For reference, if I go into CWR and mount the SD card as USB storage, I'm able to do all of the above copies without any errors or reboots. If I power down the phone, remove the SD card, put it in my SD card reader, and perform the copy in Windows 7 x64, the copies complete without errors...and quite a bit faster, by the way. But the fact that CWR can complete the copy and 1.6 can't would seem to bear out that this is a ROM-specific issue. I'd go so far as to call it a 1.6-specific issue because 1.5 never gave me any crashes doing the same activity.

I don't know if it's the phone hardware, the ROM, or what, but USB copies through the phone to the SD card via whatever means (CWR, Coredroid, whatever) always go slower than if the card's in a reader. My guess (and it's a wild one) is the writes cause an excessive number of interrupts, the phone can't keep up and loses track of some critical process, and goes boom. I don't know jack about phone hardware but I've spent more than two decades with PC hardware. I've seen this kind of thing happen when you ask a multitasking OS to do too many things at once and some driver somewhere doesn't like not getting it's fair share of CPU time, overflows a buffer, and blows up everything.

How does Android handle prioritizing things like SD card I/O writes? Surely the USB interface is capable of receiving data at a much faster rate than it can be written to the SD card, so the USB driver's got to be doing some flow control and/or buffering, all of which requires intervention by the phone CPU and cooperation with the SD card storage driver. I'd bet money one of these is the culprit.

By the way, did anybody else notice that USB Debugging was turned on by default in the ROM? Or at least I'm assuming it's that way for everyone because mine was right after flashing. I turned it off but I'll be happy to turn it back on and provide Sergio with any feedback I can give him.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] daman215:
im not a type wiz i just type dont have time for commas and all that this to me is like talking to you right beside me but i dont know just tryna help sorry if its not helping
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pipo8000:
my navigation software does not work

do i need to istall anything more than only that software

had no probl in 1.5

thx all
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SHoWa147:
Can anyone confirm if swap partition is obtained with more ram, is more stable and fast the rom? we recommend it? I have an HD2 EU.

Thank you.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nieves53:
So after reading more, I manage to get ex- partition working ...LOL n about the swap, my RAM is the same as when I had no partition or swap..about 175 free RAM. By the way, I chose the 128 swap
[HD2 Android NAND Development] grozni:
I'm definitely having issue when running in disk drive mode. I try to copy something phone freezes and reboot. I'm having this with 2 different types of sd-card. Anyone else with this issue? I installed from scratch
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SHoWa147:
Not worth the swap partition then?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] prisoner881:
You're not the only one having the problem. Not everyone has it but it's not isolated.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] prisoner881:
What nav software are you using? Kind of hard to be of help when there's a gazillion nav apps out there and you don't say which one you're trying to use.

For the record, I use Google Nav beta in concert with Google Maps. Works fine on my TMOUS and Coredroid HD2 1.6.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EdinM30:
I would suggest googling a little regarding android having problems tranfering large amount of data. Damn i turn off the damn phone take out the damn card and stick it in my damn laptop and copy whatever i need put it back in and boot up the phone.

PROBLEM SOLVED

P.S: YES EVERYONE ELSE HAS THAT PROBLEM AND ALWAYS WILL HAVE THAT PROBLEM IN 1.6, 2.0, AND 3.0 releases.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jonny68:
ALMOST the best ever build yet, please see below.

Calls/Texts - working fine

Internet - Working fine

Camera - working fine

Camcorder - working fine

Bluetooth - working fine

GPS - working fine

Games - working fine

Wi-FI -

NOT WORKING PROPERLY

I went to the library where there is free Wi-Fi, my laptop connected immediately, enabled Wi-Fi on phone, it brought up a list of available connections all except the library itself, in 1.5 it connected immediately.

Stopped off at McDonalds for a milkshake, they have free Wi-Fi there,tried my laptop, connected fine, tried my phone, this time it did show the connection but was "obtaining IP address" but timed out after a few minutes, tried again 3 times, same thing.

Went to another place where there is free Wi-Fi, laptop connected straight away, enabled Wi-Fi on phone and the same thing "obtaining IP address" but timed out, tried again a few times but same thing, so clearly there is an issue with my Wi-Fi, i wouldn't mind but Wi-Fi is something i do badly need too so im hoping someone can offer some assistance here, in all the places i tried previously with 1.5 the phone connected immediately.

Oh yeah in the library i tried to manually enter in the details for the Wi-Fi but it still didn't recognize it.

other than than i can see there is amazingly enough an improvement in speed i didn't think there could be and very smooth indeed and no lag, no force closes so far and battery life looks to be good.

Need the issue with Wi-Fi sorted ASAP though.

cheers;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
Actually, the last time (when installing v1.6) I've used Easeus. I did a complete data wipe and formatted it in fat32. With earlier builds I used Panasonic because it was then recommended very often.

But I'll give it another shot.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
Can you be a bit more specific?

What kind of Navigation Software are you using?

What is exactly the problem?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] euclanville:
i dont have this issue only slow to appear in my screen and slow transfer rate at 999kbps. i have a 8gb class 4 msd.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wanahave:
Try raf 1.8OC kernel. Maybe it works.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DaDoctor:
WIFI works fine here and for almost all the other 5000 ppl who downloaded the ROM or this thread would have been flooded...

Phones/Laptops do not just connect to unsecure wifi networks by themselves. If WIFI connected automatically in 1.5, it is because you have selected that network and initiated a trusted connection in the past.

Have you rebooted and tried again? What modification did you make to the ROM/Libs/Files? 1.6 out of the box DOES have a fully working WIFI.

Considering all the trouble you went through to install this ROM, something you have done must have broke it.

Good luck...
