Yeah I saw that. Wondered if I needed to or not

I see someone else talking about reception issues also. That was my reason for sending it in because I thought my antenna was all fubar, but I also know T-Mo has had some issues lately, specifically in Atlanta, Chicago, Portland, OR, and Houston but it may also be more widespread. How about you Stang?

Sorry :) v3.5.6 60mA, v 3.5.4 10mA
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dublus:
Similar issue here. We have 5 rooted HD2's in our home and 4 of them work great but a couple weeks ago one of them suddenly started having reception issues. If my phone has full reception bars that phone will have half, when I have half, that phone will struggle to maintain a connection. I know that phone was fine before because I used it for a couple weeks before giving it to my daughter. I've done a complete wipe but nothing changed.

One thing I noticed about the phone is it has a small dent on the lower-right back of the phone. Does anyone know what part of the electronics is located there?

Like others have done, the next step will be to restore it to Win Mo 6.5 and see if anything changes reception wise.

v3.5.7 beta is up if you know how to find it ;).

cm_bravo 159 base and tytung's GPS lib v2.0 are included.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] goldlocke:
thx tyween! :D

@ Unconn: oh! Your framework-res.apk could have inherited a general CM7 bug. testing right away.

***cm_bravo_full-159.zip (2011-08-09 08:38:39)

fix translation (de) (android_packages_apps_Settings)add US Cellular apn (android_vendor_cyanogen)make notification led work when

on charge (android_device_htc_bravo)***

edit: yes, I can confirm. Unconn's tablet tweak (+WiFi tether) fix works fine on 3.5.7 cLK (cm_base_159) :D

It obviously was a CM7 issue not Unconn's issue. sry! ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
Uploaded v3.5.7: Updated to cm_bravo_159 base. Included tytung's GPS lib v2.0 NMEA.

i feel my phone is sucking bat juice getting faster than last last few builds.

I dont have exact numbers on how the sucking take place.

I have 3 regular update for weather , traffic and news.

Which i did have the same for the last last few builds.

Anyone can suggest how to find out which process or app sucking the most bat juice?

[HD2 Android NAND Development] nonpaq:
To those who have sudden unexplained reception problems,especially the person with the dent, check out my post in the general hd2 android forum. I identified a possible hardware problem and fix that could be the cause, especially if you dropped your phone.

Unfortunately I don't have a link, so search for "hardware problem HD2".
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Mac842:

[HD2 Android NAND Development] LiFE1688:
This is for people using cLK, if you are using MAGLDR, skip this post.

For those of you having higher battery drain, or weird network signal strength issues, this is probably what you should read up on.

[DEV] Data on HD2 (ril tweaks)

You might want to pay attention to:

ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule

disable if your network does not support it, or it will cause high drain.

ro.telephony.default_network

preferring higher signal strength 2G when 3G signal is weak will give you slower speed, but uses lesser power.

Looks like 3.5.7 keeps dropping my data connection. The H disappears and leaves me with nothing but the bars. Seems to be killing my battery.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] justeam:
Confirmed. Got no data after upgrading to 3.5.7. No E,3g or H. Checked up APN, fixed permissions - nothing helps. Downgrading to 3.5.6.

EDIT: changed phone setting from "WCDMA preffered" to "GSM auto (PRL)", rebooted and everything is just ok. Kind of magic.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] tmihai20:
Yeah, all the visual enhancements make it too slow. Things like larger images, thumbnails were not needed. I didn't notice apps disappearing from "My Apps" (I believe that the list is still intact). I had a weird problem today while trying to update several apps. I don't know why but WiFi kept on being turned off automatically (either by the Market app or by the system itself). After a while WiFi stayed on permanently and I could update all the apps. I will monitor this when I get more apps to be upgraded.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jaftim:
I've also noticed high battery drain since 2.4. Now, my battery works half a day only. But on 2.3.3 it was one day with the same usage/running applications.

Confirm the problem - and it occures more often on latest builds. As a solution I do wipe chache and dalvick chache from CWM every time.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
It is probably because we are now using tytung's kernel. I opted for this because of the fact it fixes tethering and wireless problems. Rafpigna's kernel seems to have better battery use. I will probably release an optional update .zip for those that wish to still use rafpigna's 1.7 oc kernel. Hopefully he will release a version with these fixes in it with as good battery use/performance!

In regards to the other problem you report, I have not yet experienced it and I reboot often to test changes.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] LordDeath:
Hi tyween,

could you make any progress in solving the new problems introduced with RC1? Or do we still have 100% cpu usage with newer CM7 builds?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
This problem still exists as well as the GPS not working. I honestly have not had much time to look at it besides seeing if it has fixed itself with each new nightly. Even the unofficial CM7 HD2 Nightly has the same issue. I need to research further if this issue effects any other phone besides the HD2. As far as the GPS issue with RC1, I am more actively trying to solve that. I have been very busy with work but I really was glad to get v2.4.1 out, I think a lot of people will enjoy the native tethering and wireless EAP support!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wilaq:
Just got back to 2.3.3 because of the battery drain and bec there wasnt a fast button for airplane mode.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
Battery drain is kernel related. Tonight or tomorrow I will release update .zips for rafpigna's kernel and Kernel GL_Core for people to experiment with. Personally I am currently using rafpigna's kernel. It seems to be the smoothest scrolling for me. Keep in mind when changing the kernel to any kernel besides tytung r6 you will NOT have native tethering or wifi EAP support.

No fast button for airplane mode? You select which power control widget buttons are there via cyanogenmod options.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] wilaq:
Thats no problem for me, I'll wait for the next version
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Kameirus:
id like to know what yall are doing on your phones to have high battery drain

[HD2 Android NAND Development] wilaq:
Hey, i want to install a fresh andoid with no apps of previous roms on it, and still keep my contacts and sms etc, how?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
Contacts are generally synced to your gmail account so no worries there, as long as that is how you set it up. Use sms backup + to backup your sms, or another similar program.. then follow clean install instructions, then restore sms/sync contacts!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
yeah it doesnt bother me all that much anyways. just something i noticed. i def wouldnt change builds because of that. happy with what i have and im sure itll get fixed sometime in the future.

yeah i figured that was the case but i wasnt in the caring mood since i was more interested in seeing if EAP would work. Plus i knew you would just release a ram version with it once it was confirmed working. anddddd ram doesnt seem to be all that much faster than nand. but what do i know
[HD2 Android NAND Development] drummr8:
Off-topic: FFDP is awesome.

On-topic: I also don't see how people are having battery drain issues. I am at 2-5 mah on standby and battery lasts all day no problem. Best ROM i've tried yet. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Tak3r07:
I'm wondering how you can last the whole day :-(

I've even installed JuiceDefender + Taskkiller (with autokill on) to save as much battery as possible.

I've charged my battery to 100% this morning (6:15 am) and had only 20 % left one hour ago.

In the tim between 6:15 am and 1:30 pm i dont realy make big use of my phone because i'm at school.

Is this battery drain usual???

Edit:

These are my installed apps:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] fivefingerdeathpunch:
i usually drain alot when i have bad service. otherwise im running good battery life.

5ma atm standby. screen on 244ma. dunno if thats incredibly high or whatevs. i usually just text during the days while i am at school. when i do surf the web or listen to music i do tend to get quite a bit of battery drain but oh well its a phone on a small battery lol.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
This is not usual. You definitely should not use an autokiller.. This is not needed and it HURTS battery life. JuiceDefender should help, but I don't use it. I generally have 60% battery life left when I leave work.. That is 12 hours unplugged. I use the screen to check texts/emails throughout the day. If I don't do that and just let it idle I usually have about 90-80% battery life left. You could be getting bad drain due to poor signal and the radio trying to find one. Keep as many things turned off in the power control widget as you can, and use 2g ONLY if you are having trouble finding a 3g signal. This will use your battery even more. Also, airplane mode if you're getting no signal in a certain spot.. that will help you a lot!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Tak3r07:
Thank you for the advice, autokiller is turned off now and 2g on.

I dont use mobile internet, only wifi, so does 2g even affect my phone in contrary to 3g? Is my call quality lower or what is the determining diffrence to 3g?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DannyBiker:
Yup, use a task killer with auto-kill on to save battery is a non-sense. The auto-kill will most notably kill your battery life ! :p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] djsolidsnake86:
the ram version can be loaded from windows mobile 6.5?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyween:
Slower data transfer, calls always use 2g (gsm). If 3g signal strength isn't strong enough and you aren't getting it in a certain area, you can save battery by switching it to 2g only. I do that in areas that I KNOW I can't get 3g in. If the signal is really bad or non existent then I switch on airplane mode.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] soneracar:
Thank you for adding ram vs standard to OP. I was just tired of people asking and others not giving a normal, helpful answer. I do notice a higher battery drain using this rom compared to tutyong but I also blame cyanogen for that. All around everything works 100%.

I appreciate how active you are and am glad to use this rom.

Ill kick a few bucks your way tonight.

I wanted to say thank you for your post before this gets too 'stale'. And also, thank you to the one who found the link.

My daughter is away until Saturday so I will have to wait until then to try it but from what I read in the linked posts it has to be the antenna connection.

Again, thanks!

Well, it was a good run while it lasted. This update turned my phone into utter crap. Wont even get recognized in USB flash mode.

Crossing my fingers and hoping a complete wipe, back to day one fixes this problem.

This is the first time I've ever had a problem this bad and it carries over to other Roms

I did a Task29...nothing.

If someone has some help, please a good walkthrough would be appreciated. I haven't been given any answers that can help me undo the problem. Is 3.55 available? That's the last time my phone behaved.

Thank you.

Is anyone else having reboot problems. Today I have had five reboots for no known reason. This is after doing a "clean install".
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Unconn:
Almost all of the previous versions are on past #2 of this thread. I have no idea if these links are still good.

Also, have you dropped you phone? Well, even if you have not there is a thread in the HD2 General and Q&A forum about fixing the antenna contacts. I am not sure it is your phones problem, but worth a look.

What partition size are you running? If you system partition is any smaller than 150mb this will be your problem. If it is 150mb or larger you may have found a bad block in your NAND, lets hope not.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Unconn:
I have had that too. I am still working on why. Could be new libs and tweaks (ril and GPS..) or if it is the way bad blocks on NAND are being handled. I am testing and researching the second one. next time you flash or restore, afterward choose "Report Error" from under Advanced. This will copy a Recovery.log to your sdcard. Check this log for bad block errors and let me know.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] noellenchris:
I found that if my system partition is running out of room I also get reboots, the newer roms seem to be a few mb's bigger due to gtalk etc. You can go and delete the unneeded ringtones and I also deleted the unused language files as they are not needed, you can also delete several apps, I don't use the rommanger etc.

Give it a go with root explorer or the like.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] taka_mass:
I'm having exact same symptom here. My HD2 is TMOUS ver and it's been having bootloop problem since v3.4.0 even have 150MB System & 5MB Cache CLK.

Up to v3.4.0, I could be able to just select new .zip from SD and boom! I get the new version installed. Now, this method does not work and here is my work around.

1) Backup all of your data using CWM!!

2) Reboot and Hold "Vol Down" to get HSPL mode

3) Apply "CLK 150MB system / 5MB cache, again

http://www.multiupload.com/1JC969EQ5C

4) Reboot and Hold Home to back to CWM

5) Install new ROM from .zip

6) Restore Data & Fix parmission

7) Reboot and you're good to go!

I know, it's not as simple as just select new .zip ROM like used be but this entire process still takes less than 30 min altogether, which is much shorter than battling and crossing finger for avoiding bootloop hell.

I did not try MAGLDR 150MB system / 5MB cache to flash the HD2 so it may have better chance of not having bootloop there (no promise).

I hope it helps your problem. At least it did for mine!! :)
