Additional FAQ's, tips & tricks By prateekgujral​

Q: I want to run a software/hardware check on my DHD.

A: Dial *#*#3424#*#*

Q: I put the .apk on my SD card but how do I now Install?

A: You will need a file explorer, use Astro (in LeeDroid ROM) or download one from the Market. Using it, go to the location on the SD Card where you have put the .apk and click to install.

Q: Can I format my SD card? How?

A: Yes, you can! Be sure to back up the app data folders, otehrwise you may experience some problems with some applications. Connect the phone to the PC in disk drive mode. From MY computer on your PC, locate the phone drive, and format.

Q: I am unable to assign a ringtone to contact!

A: This is a typical HTC issue. The alternative is to open the Music app from all programs, select the song, click on the capacitive menu button and select set as ringtone.. follow further. (Thanks to LeeDroid)

Q: I cannot adjust the pic size while assigning it to a contact, the pinch to zoom doesnt work.

A: If you press and hold the corner of the box that appears on the pic while doing the above, ou can actually adjust the size of the pic to be shown. This is the only was known at the moment. (Discovered by prateekgujral.)

Q: How do I get rid of the vibration feedback

A: Setting> Sounds> (Scroll down) to Vibrate feedback << un-check

(Note: If you uncheck this you will loose vibration everywhere, even on the capacitive buttons.)

Q: The sounds on my DHD are quite low.

A: Check in Settings> Sounds> Volume

Q: I need ringtones/ notification tones on the system.

A: The best way to do so is before flashing open the zip (donot extract). Go to /system/media/audio - Drop your .mp3 into the respective folders.

Remember > You have not extracted the .zip, so once you drop it and close the zip, it will be there. Now flash as normal.

Q: Some programs are not responding, DHD is getting slow.

A.

1. Try rebooting (Normal).

2. Check the third party installations and compatibility.

3. Second last resort: Factory re-set and reflash the LeeDroid Rom.

4. Last resort: Full Wipe and flash the LeeDroid ROM.

Q: My Mobile data is not working.

A: Check the settings in Settings> Wireless and Networks> Mobile Networks

If there are no settings, contact your carrier provider to get the settings.

Q: How do I stop the screen from auto rotating?

A: Settings> > Display > Uncheck Auto Rotate

Q: I am playing Teeter but the caliberation is out.

A: Settings> Display> G Sensor Caliberation (Follow instructions).

kernel 1.4?
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Proximity sensor fixed, cleaned up, debugging info stripped ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
awesome work Lee.I'll check it later cus it's too late here and I'm waiting for a torrent to download.tomorrow I will flash my DHD with it and tell you the results.now it's our turn to make this thread popular ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] adam7:
Lee I have already spread the news about this great ROM:eek:

and until it fully uploaded I'll try it out :D
[Desire HD Android Development] djwasel:
Thanx alot lee,, u r the man... thanx alot for making this long awaited wish a reality,, now am gonna enjoy the best HD ROM from the best developer in my native language>> thanx again :-)
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
:D as I say, if the demand is there, it will follow the same path as my 2 existing builds.. but fully Arabized ;)

Got to admit, the build went smoothly enough.. testing was a nightmare lol.. I dont speak or read Arabic... its a good job english is supported, although the initial screens were a little confusing!
[Desire HD Android Development] cturbos:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH LEE.

now,can you do somthing to us with the stock(183) rom like finding a way to root it?

thanks:)
[Desire HD Android Development] adam7:
LOLz:D....I know that you worked hard with this ROM and hopefully you'll see enough demand to make this thread keep going.
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
wasnt aware that one wasn't cracked yet! does that mean many potential Arabic users are currently unrooted? :eek:
[Desire HD Android Development] cturbos:
yes sir a lot not rooted:mad:

will you please find a way.
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Il have a look at the existing 1.32 exploit, you guys tried doing the downgrade?

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] cturbos:
I don`t want to go that route,downgrading then upgrading,unless it`s really a must.:(
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Its the best way tbh, your only downgrading to access a security flaw, you will be right back up there once its over..

Personally think its a better way to do it than to try and find a new exploit, at least the 1.32 exploit is tried and tested :D
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:

just evaluating my battery life on 26.06.03.24.m2 radio

usually running out after 23-24 hrs

no GPS - wifi - blutooth, only data

so do you get more than this usually ?

and is this radio the best one to be used at the current rom ?

thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
it depends.someone mentioned that he didn't like the new radio that came with rom 1.83 while I preferred the new one over the old one.I guess that you have to try and check it yourself :)

[Desire HD Android Development] hacmieu:
This is the best ROM.

I'm new of DHD family but I was use Revolution Rom. It's slower than LeeDroid Rom.

Sorry about my bad English :D
[Desire HD Android Development] docnasef:
@ Lee

Really appreciate all the hard work

This ROM will have quite a few followers!

A question please,

I actually run a desire bravo, rooted and S-off

Now it has radio 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17

Do I REALLY have to change that?

Would it just negatively affect my battery life, if I don't?

I just so badly want to run this ROM, but am rather anxious about flashing another

radio.

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Ihssan:
I really would like to thank YOU Lee Bailey for this Great Thread

I also would like to thank PapaDocta

GOD bless You both​
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:

[Desire HD Android Development] midnightman6:
Yes I did the exact same thing and I got that msg

[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:

http://www.ziddu.com/download/13746366/camera_libs.zip.html
[Desire HD Android Development] midnightman6:

[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:

[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
I hope "soon" is like tonight :P
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
spec kernel and radio with lots of changes and fixes ROM .. boom!

that would be enough till the gingerbread officially released guys :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
Damn soon didn't turn out to be yesterday :P
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
indeed but running and maintaining many builds is really tough for the developer :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
yeah though the other rom gets more epic every now and then.I would have used the other rom if it had arabic support and no sms notification bug issue.oh well, we appreciate that Lee has done this rom when no one else did.I just hope that we will get most of what the other rom has :)
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Started on 1.2 today dudes ;)

Should be up tomorrow :D

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
thanks man.hope we have most of the features the other rom has :)

oh you made Ubuntu working on DHD? and you are also working on Honeycomb?! man I wish I was that good :P
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Lol! Tbh.. this ain't that far off atm.. a lot of the MODS are kernel related ;)

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
really? but we will have the other missing features right? this might sounds silly but I really want semi transparency on everything XD
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
That shouldn't be an issue mate ;)

I want the 2 builds to be as close as possible

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
counting down :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
I read that there is a new kernal source from HTC.does this have anything to do with this rom or it's just for rom 1.72?
[Desire HD Android Development] shntkshoka:
thank you leedroid for work done for us
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
any news,Lee? :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Gig11gs:
Cant wait i check this page every 2 hours
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Been working with the new source. Few fixes to do tonight ;)

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
sometimes I wish I was using the other rom.not just because it gets more updates but because most of the themes are compatible with rom 1.72.for example I really want to use liamstears Mods theme on this rom but I heard that it isn't compatible,right?

the 2 reasons which makes me hesitant to use the other rom is:

1-no arabic support (though I heard that there are some working files for it)

2-the sms notification bug (has it been solved yet?)

anyway,waiting for your new rom.hopefully 1.2 will be a great update :)
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
yeah true .. i've tried the arabic fix file .. and its working with 3 errors

1-animation boot will disappear

2-after applying the arabic fix file you can't apply themes above or you will lose writing from right to left feature

3-if you wrote a word in arabic and you decided to go to the middle of that word to correct something .. after correction you can't go back to the end of the word again .. you will stuck before the last letter of the last word you wrote

i got this always with all the roms i tried not Lee's only

yeah kinda very big bad luck

but anyway the current rom is awesome .. if only the camera is working i would still using it, wont change it till the next one.

thats why i just can't wait this one

fast, stable, arabic and leedroided :D a dream isn't
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
@kainmat1

number 2 and 3 can be fixed by patching the framework.jar :) and the camera is working on fine on this ROM! did you install the fix?
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
Ohh really.!

Then help please, from where i can get that jar fix

And the camera fix for the current rom also

Thanks alot man !
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
Regarding the framework.jar fix there isn't any but I will make one.. it will only work on Ayman's Arabic files and not the full Arabic Rom .. I have made one already @ce4arab forum for an older leedroid Rom...

Regarding the camera fix just go back a few pages back and you will find it
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
the most important thing

is the 3rd error really, sometimes you have to delete all what you wrote

for a miss-typing

will be waiting for that :)

thanks alot
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
The third error only happens because of the absence of the Arabic framework so by patching the themed one with the Arabic files, editing the text shouldn't result in the disorder of the letters ...

Choose a theme and send me the framework.jar and i'll patch it for you ...
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
aha..

but that's really difficult for me lol i don't really know how to pull the framework.jar from the theme

so here is the deal..you just chose any theme you and i will take it.

the main idea for me is using Lee's rom with no arabic support errors, anything else is oki
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
How about you select the theme you want and give me the link for it and I'll do the rest
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
yay

tbh i don't really have an experience what is good to chose

i never tried to flash any because it will not be compatible with the arabic fix file,

really i will be totally happy with whatever you give, i would know this is the best.

thanks :)
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
i'll do a patch for this theme

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=918163

and you can use it with LeeDroid 2.0 ROM not this :)

i don't use themes myself as i like the stock look :)
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
Yeah true I like the stock one also, but if the only way to use the Arabic language is to apply a fixed jar theme, I will do it

Im using the note a lot, also the face book

And its really annoying to write with that error I told you about.
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
ok here is what you need to do...

first of all backup your current rom ...

1. download LeeDroid 2.0 ROM and install it ==> http://goo.gl/rmrse

2. download the theme and install it ==> http://goo.gl/Gu153

3. download the patched framework.zip and install it ==> http://goo.gl/XKk2f

now you should have the theme with Arabic support :)

try and let me know :)
[Desire HD Android Development] kainmat1:
Sure . I will do this as 1st thing after duty

But should i apply the framework

After the arabic file or before ?
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
The framework patch already has all the necessary Arabic files... so no need to do anything else just follow the 3 steps above and you'll be good to go :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
has the notification bug issue been solved with rom 2.0 or it's still there? ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Papadocta, have you managed to get Arabic working with my main stream Rom?

Sent from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] PapaDocta:
i haven't tried it... but as long as your ROM is based on 1.72 then it should work fine....

right now i'm digging into the framework.jar of 1.83 Arabic ROM in order to to find out the method that was used to add the reshaping method... if the method is only based on the framework.jar and not libskia.so then we'll have a general patch for all DHD Sense based roms..
[Desire HD Android Development] Hakimy:
you didn't try it,PapaDocta? I'm thinking of trying it but what about the notification bug? I have been asking this many times with no answer :P
