I am also awaiting for AmericanICS release by cope and warren. I just could not let go of this build with its out-of-the-box perfection. ICS seems to be a RAM hog regardless of which ROM i flash. Currently playing with Cicion's CM9 nightly ICS. still get a lot of "process has stopped" but trying to be patient with it.

I will remain loyal to this build for as long as an ICS build is as stable and near-perfect as this.

I know BT is not working here is my specs.

Running 3/5/ build on 3 partition SD.

let the build be fresh, and create the data.img

Running Motorola MOTOPURE H12 Universal BT Headset

Paired just fine, when I hit talk button on BT headset, the HD2 says SPEAK NOW, and displays LISTENING. But it never hears me, of course you knew that.

I can hear music from Youtube on it just fine.

Very good build, very fast and responsive :-)

Two things that caught my attention:

The DSP manager force closes if i change something.

There is no aac(p) support in this build, cherry rplayer only plays mp3 stations.

Wyse pocketcloud is not working, it force closes :-(.

Can anyone confirm that?

low volume, increase attenuation?

Is there anyway to tweak volume attenuation? The volume seems a bit low (even when set to max) when viewing youtube videos or even some of the notifications. Is there anything in perhaps the build.prop or anywhere else that would allow us to set the attenuation? I know there is a tweak in the cyanogen settings to let us change the boost 6db 8db 10db but that doesn't seem to roll over to media playback. I do remember the output of the loud speaker was much much higher in stock winmo 6.5

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] jadrobe:
update to the mar.5 build used my existing data.img from the feb.16 build and it works well!

a few observations on the feb16 and mar5 builds:

1. idle battery drain is erratic - sometimes 60mA, sometimes 6-9mA

2. when in wifi and sync mode, even after switching off the wifi, sync icon on notif is still present and does not seem to disappear unless i reboot.

3.agree with above post, general audio for ringtones and notifications are a little weak....

everything else is superb. thank you very much for the build. kudos to all of you who have come up with this!
[HD2 Android SD Development] mdskrzypczyk:
I'm sorry if this is in the faq or back a couple of pages, but is anyone experiencing constant "notification"-like vibrating during a call? I finish the call and there are no notifications so it's extremely annoying. The data is also quite choppy now and I'm extremely confused. Like, the data will work from time to time. I'm using the 3/5 build, with pre existing data img, Tmous HD2 in the United States. Thanks for any help.
[HD2 Android SD Development] SkippyDogg:
Have you tried checking if "Vibrate every 45 seconds' is checked off in Settings>Call settings?
[HD2 Android SD Development] SkippyDogg:
The method i did helped me hear it better than it was before. I went to Settings>Sound and clicked on volume and moved the slider all the way to the end. They were previously about a little more than half so i believe this will help improve how loud the selected settings were.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mdskrzypczyk:
Yes I did, I unchecked everything that had to do with vibration during a call. And it wasn't like every 45 seconds, it would constantly do notification vibrations for a 3 second time frame, the noise in the call would cut out, i couldn't hear anything from the other side nor speak anything that they would hear, then the call would cut back in and I'd be able to hear. And all of this would be occurring in random intervals at the same time.

Hello all. Reinstalled this build after a long absence and noticed something amazing - when using the bundled wi-fi tether application it appears to report as being in infrastructure mode rather than ad-hoc. Did i miss a meeting? How long has the hd2 been able to do this? It means all my devices can tether up, not just rooted ones with new wpa_supplicant. Even my DSi has an easier time of it. I know it's not the most dignified retirement, but my hd2 is now taped to the window and serving up internet to the house. Splendid.

Anyway, point is - is this something to do with this rom, or the wireless tether app? Many thanks.

Hey guys, I have one problem with this build. Sometimes, the phone freezes completely. This means: Black screen that cannot be turned on anymore. Even the LEDs behind the hard buttons won't light up after pressing them. Only solution is to pull out the battery and put it back in. Most of the time, this happens after several days of non-stop use (10 days and more). But once, it happend some minutes after a fresh boot. I cannot reproduce it and I don't know what the problem is. Other than that everything works perfectly.

Does anyone know this problem? Any solutions for this?

Hi.

I have some problems with the market.

Lots of apps are signed as "incompatible" even if i know that they are compatible.

Does anyone have a fix for this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] düdldihüü:
Hi Willy89, have a look here. Fixes all incompatibility issues for me.

I've come up with another problem, maybe someone can help me: I changed my provider (from o2 to T-Mobile (Germany)) and since I swapped my SIMs, my battery is eaten unbelievably fast. My normal battery drain when screen is off is about 8-10 mA. I can observe the same battery drain now but additionally, I find a lot of spikes with 50-120 mA (screen off!). And with a lot of spikes I mean they occur every other minute. The Android battery usage tool is no real helper, as always. So to me it seems like some app suddenly uses masses of battery but I don't know which, and since I didn't change anything except the SIM, it is quite the riddle to me. I already removed the /data/system/batterystats.bin, shut down, remove battery, and booted again but this brought no improvement.

What is also a bit peculiar, is that when I switch off my mobile networks and switch them on again, so that I have to enter my PIN (same after reboot), I get a pop-up that says "Your Number: XXXX-XXXXXXXX" with the options "OK" and "Cancel". I didn't get that with my previous SIM.

American Android Suddenly Stops

Hi,

Yesterday I was playing Montezuma 3 on it, suddenly my phone got switched off frm that time my android is not booting up.

After clicking clrcad.exe and haret.exe American Android loading screen comes but after 2-3 mins it goes blank and nothing happened so can anyone help me out what's the problem. I have my contacts and messages on it didn't got the chance to back thm up so is there and way I can retrieve contacts, SMSes and appdata even though if it doesn't boot.

Do I need to install fresh copy of American Android.

Hi, mate.

Try to check your SD-card with chkdsk:

1. turn off your HD2

2. eject SD-card from HD2

3. plugin to your PC with any SD-reader

4. check and fix errors (if exist)

It possible, that your contacts/SMS/sets are stored in data.img. Try to extract a frash copy AmeriCanAndriod into another folder (ex. cmcopy), copy your data.img from current folder to a new one (cmcopy), edit starup.txt file (change rel_path=Android to rel_path=cmcopy), and try to boot this one.

If it loaded, then try to find your data and export it with some options.

I dont say, that is 100% worked way, but try. Sorry for my English. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] coolsumit007:
ThnX for your quick reply.

I did as told by you but with old data.img got the same result after American Android loading screen my screen goes blank and thn nothing happen, if I use new data image it boots.

Sorry 2 ask any other way U can suggest.
[HD2 Android SD Development] zetcamp:
If you use some utils to create swap-file for Android, then find that file (ex. swap.swp or else) of root of SD-card and delete it.

When you trying to boot a frash copy of OS with your data.img - did you set right size of your file in startup.txt? Try this.

Anyway, now I have't another suggestions how to help you. If I find some fixes for your problem - I post it to this thread.

Sorry for my English :)

Best SD-Android for Every Day Use

Hi,

I really like this Android because it is the best I have tested so (I have test about 7 different versions for SD installation). The system is working fast (no lags in apps even compared to standard Android phones or standard WinMob). And I have no problems working with additional apps like CoPilot full navigation, Extended emails, TrustGo etc.. I had a lot of problems with Bluetooth and data connection in other SD Androids. These have all disappeared.

Thanks a lot, well done.

Hey Guys,

Thanks ACA for this great SD Build, working fine but I will be glad to change the LCD Density and I can't. I changed into build.prop the device from HD2 to Desire to Galaxy but when I want to change the density from standard 167 to 200 nothing happen.

I can change the numbers and save, all go fine but when I reboot the resolution still the same.

Any Idea?

Change lcd_density variable in startup.txt and reboot Android. Current build use only startup.txt's variables, that's why some sets in build.prop are ignored.

3G data stability

I came late to this fantastic build, in fact I was late owning an HD2! Many, many thanks to the devs for bringing the old HD2 up to date with stable and reliable android.

I've been trying to solve the problem of the 3G data connection going unstable - left arrow remaining lit and the machine slowing to a crawl. This used to happen randomly after starting to use the data channel and even after going to flight mode and back the machine would still crawl with some process apparently using the processor 100%, before suddenly clearing after a few minutes as suddenly as it started. Trawling through this post I've seen several people suffering from this with no answers forthcoming.

I discovered if you set the processor speed governer to "Performance" (from "Interactive" or "On demand") in CM settings it seems to sort the problem out. This is with the minimum speed set to 384 to prevent "Standby of Death".

I'm guessing the Interactive or On Demand settings are too slow ramping up the speed and this causes problems with sudden heavy demand during data usage. As only a few people seem to have suffered it, I guess it may also be network and microSD speed related too.

Anyhow, it seems to have finally sorted my problem, so I hope it helps any others still using this great machine and ROM.

how update?

Hi,

I read the faq and I tried to look for some information about bkup2sdext... But I'm not able to understood anything:(

Which is the more easy way to update the rom...

Everytime I want to update, always I format my Sd and start from zero... Sure there is a easy way to do, isn't it? :)

And when I should use bkup2sdext feature?

Thanks, and sorry if these are obvius questions!
[HD2 Android SD Development] docent14:
Ohhh man ....

Updating is really easy

ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS

- Do a fresh Titanium backup before upgrade

- if you're nerd/geek - do a backup of you sd-ext and /Android directory.

1) Scenario 1 - fresh start.

Delete from you sd card WHOLE 'Android' directory.

Delete .android_secure

Copy files from archive to sdcard:/Android

Edit startup.txt to change your zone for GPS [Optional]

VERY IMPORTANT - if you're using extra partitions on first boot wait aprox. 7-10 minutes, all data from /sd-ext will be copied to /data

Reboot phone - all data are here!

2. Scenario 2 - using existing data.img

Delete all files from sdcard:/Android/ WITHOUT data.img

Copy files from archive to sdcard:/Android

Edit startup.txt to change your zone for GPS [Optional]

Reboot phone - all data are here!

Unstable 3G but able reconnect

Installed the 030511 build on a new SD card (fresh partitions). The 3G/Wifi is again turning green (see issues in previous posts) but now the 3G is unstable again. Most noticeable when mobile, it drops to grey and disconnects but the bars are still there. It does however reconnect after a small period which it hasn't done before.

The speed of the ROM though is unbelievably fast. The wakeup from sleep is still laggy after a reboot but if I wait about 5min, its then an instant response.

I am able to replicate the voice issues in navigation etc commented above.

As always much cred to the team making such an awesome ROM.

[HD2 Android SD Development] t-mizzle:
First of all, 3G/EDGE going green is not indicative of connection. The green color indicates sync. While the reception bars and the 3G/EDGE indicator are gray, if you have reception, you have data. Depending on how many sync services are syncing, what they are syncing, the state of the servers they are syncing to and the sync connection quality, it may take a while to "turn green"

Second, during a phone call while on EDGE, data is lost and after the call the data link has to be reestablished. Reestablishing data link has a lot to do with factors that are beyond Cope's and Warren's control.

Third and last, cell phone services are very "fragile" and unstable, people get used to things being good and effectively become spoiled by what their perception is and ignorant of facts.

No one on here will deny that some people indeed have issues but the tolerance limit needs to be higher and the scapegoat should not always be the build they are running but also individual circumstances.

Prime example of this is in the recent post from guy who thought his GPS was 'broken" but actually he didn't have patience to allow enough time for a GPS cold start.
