Hey guys, I added the same "transition animations" from my SD build in the "mods" section in the first post. Install it using Metamorph from the Android Market.

(I would've added it to the build but some prefer it, some don't. It's SUPER easy to install).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dubie76:
Im not familiar with what they look like. Anyone have a screen shot?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] motoman234:
I dont know how to take a screenshot of animations lol. If you like custom transition animations then you should like them. Backup your stock framework just in case you don't :).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
Moto,

I'm sorry to be such a nuisance, but how do I install the mods using Metamorph?

I already downloaded both the optional mods on my PC desktop and have Metamorph installed on my HD2...what do I need to do next?

I appreciate your patience in guiding us on how to do this.

Thanks!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] motoman234:
The animations are only for Metamorph, not the other two.

Just put the "Transizions.zip" on your SD card and start up Metamorph and choose "Unzip/extract new theme" and navigate to wherever you put the Transitions.zip and click on it. After it extracts it, it will give out an error. Then close then start up Metamorph again and choose "pick existing theme" and install it. It should reboot itself after wards.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dailomac:
i just tried this and it doesnt work.. it gives me an error message in clockwork area.. can some1 help me do this.. walkthrough would be appreciated... thanx..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
Moto,

Thanks for the directions on installing "Transizions.zip" via Metamorph.

Is there another way to install the optional mods besides ADB?

I'm not familiar with the procedure on how to do it that way.

I generally use a Mac and installed the previous SD builds via SD card reader.

If you could guide me on how to install it step by step, then it will be great! :)

Thanks again.

What's the difference between regular hd2s and tmous ones? How do I know which one I have?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
Moto...

Since the NAND builds, I've been using my PC for all the DAF installs, so some guidance with the ADB steps will be helpful.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
TMOUS would have "T-Mobile" under the top speaker, the hard keys "Call" button will be green and the "power" button will be red...plus T-mobile HD2 has more internal storage.

Non-T-mobile HD2 hard keys (buttons on the bottom) are all clear/white.

Hope this helps.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] raviluke:
Thanks. So yea mine is a tmous version and uptil now I was flashing any rom regardless it said tmous or not. I wasn't doing anything wrong right? And what is the significance of specially labelled tmous ROMs over non tmous? Does that mean that Tmous labelled roms should only be flashed on T-Mobile hd2s and non tmous labelled can be flashed on any?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dailomac:
i still need help to change back to stock launcher..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
As far as I know, T-mobile HD2's are capable of downloading pretty much any ROM build for the HD2...the only concern would be which radio version you install.

Considering that specific T-mobile builds are more compatible with T-mobile's HD2 due to that they are designed for them...my .02

Wont Load Help.

I absolutley LOVE your rom. I completly redid my phone and sd card. I installed the new MAGLRD113 and also the new CWM1.3. I used the new AD Recovery option to get to CWM and installed the rom from the sd and it would not boot. I was stuck on the white htc screen forever. I then tried another rom and it worked. Am i missing something or is there an issue with this rom and the new tools.

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Talderon:
Question now is, which CWM Recovery did you install? Make sure you install the 400MB one. Anything less you will have this issue.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nattyd:
Thanks for the reply dude. I did install the 400MB one, thats the only one i use. What else could i be doing wrong?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mobi:
Hi Moto,

I love this build but I have a quick question. I used to use your SD build EVO_Carbon_Remix and I thought it was the best looking build out there. Is there a way to wrap up that theme so it could be installed here? Cheers.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Derek0228:
Build = epic pwnage

Love it.

Moto, chek your pm btw.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] miguel4u2:
How did you copy the zip file onto the phone? Via maglrd? Don't use maglrd because it corrupts the zip and it won't boot, use clockwork menu to mount the sd.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] nattyd:
I copied the zip file directly to the mirco sd using an adapter straight from the computer. Is it better to use the clockwork menu?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dailomac:
no help.. no support.. im switching roms.. i asked for help going back to stock using the zip files provided in the first page.. and i followed the instructions and it didnt work.. in CW it complained about some files not compatible.. i waited and waited and i still got no responses.. and then all these n00bs flooded this thread with questions that should be asked in the q & a sections.. and the n00bs need to is JUST USE THE ****ING SEARCH BUTTON.. its not that hard.. the real ppl that ask for help dont get it because of spam!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Tung.Q.Phan:
Dude why are you raging? It's not like you pay for the service. And why are you threatening MOTO of switching Rom? Are you 5? Come on dude, he is doing this on his own free will.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dailomac:
hey buddy.. im not threating MOTO at all.. this is not towards him.. im grateful for him.. im just stating there is too much SPAM on this thread and the real ppl that need help are not being helped..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kevinniven:
help

what do you need help on
[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
The next time you want help don't say 'I did xxx and got an error." Post what the error said. The idea is to provide enough information so that someone can suggest something without having to be a mind reader.

If you've installed a custom framework and the "return to stock" update isn't working then did you consider reinstalling the whole clockworks rom? It should keep your data.

Whether there is spam or not..newbie posts that are answered in first post etc, no one is being paid to answer your question. No one is REQUIRED to. I didn't see you saying "I'll put X in someone's paypal if you write a step by step on how to do blah." Using profanity like that does not encourage people to help you.

Saying "I'm going to xxx rom" is certainly a slap in the cooks face even if you don't intend it that way. It's an implied threat otherwise you would just GO to xxx rom without all the drama.

If you are getting the scripting error saying something has been deprecated, the cause has already been mentioned in the thread. Motoman stated it was occuring due to changes clockworks made to be gingerbread compatible. The first solution that would come to me is to try the version of clockworks PRIOR to when they made that change since you only need it long enough to run the update.

A third solution to get back to stock framework is to restore from backup cause anyone thats not a n00b and has clockworks installed knows to make a backup before installing something new right?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dailomac:
thank you for all ur responses.. and this is what im having problems with "If you are getting the scripting error saying something has been deprecated, the cause has already been mentioned in the thread. Motoman stated it was occuring due to changes clockworks made to be gingerbread compatible. The first solution that would come to me is to try the version of clockworks PRIOR to when they made that change since you only need it long enough to run the update." so downgrading should solve the problem?

also im sorry for the outburst and the cursing.. i apologize to all the ppl ive offended..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
dailomac,

If this is directed at me, then I feel sorry that you feel this way.

There have been legit questions asked regarding this build...we all have questions/problems and would like them answered.

I understand that you have a problem and would like it resolved...I know Motoman will do his best to answer it when he is able.

Just because you know something, doesn't mean that someone else does...maybe you could help out by answering the "n00bs" questions so that Motoman can get to answering yours.

We should just help each other out and all enjoy what Motoman has gratefully

built for us!

Now time to "squash" this rant! :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kiko130:
Hey Moto, thank you for all the work, ever since I played around with the myTouch 4G i wanted this ROM on my HD2 !

Works great, even before second reboot its very fast.

However,

I installed the transition animations using me metamorph & the instructions mentioned. It seemed like it was working, but it's now stuck on

"Please Wait, applying framework-res.apk theme 1 of 1"

For the past 20 minutes and hasn't rebooted or anything... ? Anyone help?

thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kntdookoo:
Great ROM! Fastest Sense based ROM I have run on the HD2. Great job on this. Looking forward to upcoming improvements.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
Mine rebooted by itself after a few minutes.

Did you try to manually reboot?

See if that works.

Sorry I couldn't help further.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gottley:
now that i got the animations from the sd card build this is almost the great build of all time for me now i just need the the colorful H hsapda signal for data and it will be the greatest build
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
I agree.

Need to figure out how to install the optional mods!

Help...please. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Talderon:
The ONLY issue I have with this ROM may not be with the ROM at all.

I was thinking it was the ROM, but have heard reports of the Market failing to download/install apps.

I had to manually download and install the Google Maps 5.1.0 apk to get Google Maps installed. The Market does not see that the app is installed. The Market will not allow me to download and install this app.

This also happened to me with Droid Armory (World of Warcraft app). I restored a backup of the app with Titanium Backup.

Otherwise, I LOVE this ROM. Stable, fast solid and I am even still using the stock launcher!!! Overall, great job!

Battery Life

First off let me start by saying i love this Rom. It is the best i've had yet. Besides the battery life. I was using a desire Rom before this one and had great battery life bout 12 of modrate usage without charge. With this Rom after four hours my battery is at 50 percent that is after barley using the phone. If this is a repeat question i aploigize in advance i have read the last few pages of the thread and saw nothing on this

thanks and keep up the great work:D

[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
The default cwm 400mb partition only allocates 4mb to cache. When I recently reflashed the partition sizes for magldr 1.13 and clockworks 1.3 I increased the cache size to 10mb and was able to install a handful of apps that had been sitting for days.

*clarification* Download clockworkmod 1.3.....make a backup of your rom.....edit the flash.cfg that comes in clockworkmod 1.3 prior to running the dft flash step and change cache to 10mb....flash using magldr option.....do a restore so your rom is loaded into the new sized partitions....try your downloads again. I noted that the problem mostly appeared with larger downloads..can't guarantee it's a permanent solution but right now I can install everything.

The other solution I found that also helped some was to rename/delete a file that was in .android-secure on the sd card...apparently it can occasionally get corrupted.

Finally I found this paragraph in the clockworkmod main post:

The cache partition flashed is only 10MB so that recovery can still use it, to get cache to work in android, make a directory in data called cachemnt and on boot symlink /cache to /data/cachemnt

and I note that /data/cachemnt symlink does not exist to /cache.....this can be fixed via adb by sending "adb shell ln -s /cache /data/cachemnt" ....since the symlink doesn't take up any space I chose to add it as "insurance".
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gottley:
well first u got to download metamorph for the market then down load the the transitions zip from the first page of this post then connect ur computer and send transitions zip to the root of ur sd card after that go to metamorph app and tap unzip/extract new theme use the arrow at the bottom of the page to see wats on ur sdcard then go to transitions zip and tap on it it will unzip it and then go into errors that is ok go back to metamorph and choose "pickexistingtheme" then go thru the folder that says transitions tap it twice until u see framework.res and under it it will have tranitions.xml tap transitions.xml u will then see transitions vnull tap were it says close and u should be done and it will ask u to reboot and u should have ur animations

I'm running Radio version 2.12.50.02_2 and haven't upgraded to a more current radio.

I was wondering if there will be a positive advantage to changing it to 2.14 or 2.15 regarding this build?

Can someone who has either radio comment on this?

Thanks!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dragion:
Thanks, but I didn't have a problem downloading "transitions" via metamorph.

I'm trying to install the 2 "optional mods" from page one...the colorful H data signal and pull down menu.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dubie76:
I am wondering when there will be a 2.16, 2.15 has been the highest for a while now.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gottley:
oh ok well maybe u could try the same method with those modds u could try thats wat im gonna do
[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
You pick the radio that works best for your area as performance is widely affected by location... 2.14 might be great for me and suck for you...that being said 2.14 and 2.15 seemed to maintain a 3g connection for me better than 2.12 and in my case I found 2.15 "switched between 3g and E" way to much where 2.14 seemed to hold better.

I've heard some folks say 2.14 and 2.15 appear to have "less dots" in some areas than 2.12 but once again I suggest you try each radio for minimum of a week and see.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] famewolf:
If you are getting the "..has been deprecated" script error I suggested using the version of clockworkmod prior to when they added the gingerbread enhancement (1.1? it's in the changelog) just long enough to do the installs.....

[ copy the two files for the earlier version to a dir on sd named "mods" or something...then go into maglder services menu and point to that mods dir...then boot to sd to boot into the older version....then when done go back into magldr and repoint to where your newer version is. For those on magldr 1.13 ...it's the same... boot to sd takes you to the version on sd....or you can use the ad recovery to get to "new" version. ]

[HD2 Android NAND Development] kiko130:
Hey I really like this ROM as i loved how it 'felt' on the MyTouch 4G, but am having a couple of issues. I did read the past couple of pages & didn't see mention of them so I'll ask, I'm mostly wondering if it's just me & something went wrong with my install or anyone else is also experiencing them.

First, Robo voice. I know it was supposed to go away by itself (?) after one call. But for me it keeps coming back, and when it does, completely freezes the 'phone' app. Almost have to pull battery

Next, dictation, or speech whatever it's called. Doesn't work with either with the default keyboard or Dragon dictation. It just doesn't pick up any voice or sounds for that matter (& i tried screaming!)

& one more, custom transitions, not a big deal but i find it odd that it just doesnt work & for others does (?). It just gets stuck on Metamorph "please wait, applying framework-res.apk"

Overall thinking i need to task 29 ..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] denisse_24:
im trying to install the mods with metamorph atheme is invalid because nd it says that thethe theme something is missing wtf :S

Dagggggfreakingnabbit! I clicked the DAF download link by accident, only downloaded abt 2.5MB before i realized it was the DAF link and now i have to wait a half hour--I HATE hotfile!! My two fave roms THIS and the other being Sergios CORE ROM both use hotfile and even to download little 3MB animation scripts you have to wait 30 mins for OR cough up $$.

*If anyone has an alternate link thatd be cool*--Its already 1:30a here in Md,USA-im off tomorrow but i dont want to be up another hour!Thanks and love your builds MOTO!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] milton007:
Hey bro--were u able to fix the ROBO---If i ever ran into that problem, after doing all the steps youve stated, if i still didnt have luck, i would go into SYSTEM/ ETC/FW/---default.acdb is the file you are looking for---simply rename it with (i like to do both prefix and suffix-for instance 1default.acdb1 that way i can always ADB back into it from my desktop and i know what file i renamed -to pull,rename BACK-IF it causes a problem-to its original default.acdb) or whatever you can remember. I have always gotten this to work for me so if you dont understand my half-stoned instructions-LoL-feel free to PM me-Im always here to help--****, its where ive learned everything tinkering around since Jan9th 2010-when i got my first and second best android phone-the Nexus ONE--Nothing touches the HD2 tho--Quint boot device!?? Niiiiiiice --Anyway-hope this helped:)

Great job on porting the MT4G ROM onto the HD2 Moto!

I love Sense ROM's and before I flashed to your ROM I was using gauner1986's Desire Z, which is one of the best (IMO) but now it's second to best. :) I love this T-Mobile remixed Sense ROM. It feels faster than the Sense ROM's I've tried and very close to stock (which I like).

I have two issues with this build and I've already used the search function to no avail so I'll try asking here. I tried making a call and I had a hard time hearing the persons' voice on the other line even with the volume maxed. Our voices were also echoing (that was a first for me). Second problem I ran into which seems to be plaguing just about everyone here is the battery drain. :T Without putting any strain on the cpu/ gpu I saw the battery meter drop even when I was just browsing through menus and screens.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] harrystone33:
Great Port!!

Let me start off by saying that it took a lot for me to go from the only [continued] ROM which Cyanogen's to a different one and I'm glad I waited for this!! What a nice looking one you've made here. I have two questions though for the community here, has anybody

1) Found a place to download new themes for the ROM and

2) Who is crazy enough to not try this beautiful ROM!? xD

Hey, thanks for the help, always appreciated!

Fortunately the robo voice dissapeared all by itself, but am having other issues as well. Something's off with the microphone (as someone else mentioned low volume on calls?) because it just doesnt pick up anything in voice search/dictation

Also, i tested the gps last night & once i had a lock, it had a pretty significant delay while driving. I've had this phone for a year+ now & had so many ROMs in it, Im pretty sure I know what the gps is capable of in terms of accuracy & it was not it last night :/

Also battery, went from 35 to 5 in a little less than half our with 3g & bluetooth on, screen off.

All in all though I'm just glad someone got this ROM out, just a few things that need to be worked on

Well, it installed it and it shows in the list under my apps but it still does not show as installed. I've also noticed that the last two apps I've tried to install from the market download normally but then I get a message that "download was unsuccessful, please try again" and they don’t install.

I'm going overseas in a couple of days so I don’t want to be in sh*t when I get there. Any ideas?

Moto, one more request please. When you update the build will you put a date nets to the changelog? Changelog V1.0 - 2/3/10

I was able to download and install the latest Google Maps. The first attempt I was met with a "Download unsuccessful", but all I did was install again and it did so with no problem and installed. Maybe some persistence might help? I don't see why you can't install it when I did on the same ROM

Anyone have this issue. I flashed the DFT version twice and both times it loads without the Sense Clock with the weather. It doesn't show up in my widget list either. Even the Dev has never heard of this. Anyone else have this issue?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Franchiselocs:
You have to load it yourself. There is a clock app on the phone. Go to your applications list to find "clock." It gives you a plethora of clocks to choose from, and the sense clock is one of them. Good luck!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mobi:
That's the problem. If we all had the same it would be fixed already. Believe me, I've tried plenty of times.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mobi:
Its a widget. Go to widgets and Clock (not analog clock) and I think its the third option there. Good luck.

Anyone know of a good power widget. On one of the other roms I had one where I could toggle off data roaming, etc. I dont like the standard power one.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dubie76:
I posted a link for the new google maps above. It loads just fine. Has to be a market issue. Not a rom issue.
