Ooooh that bcm file in lib/modules? haha it wouldn't let me copy it into root so I kind of left it out ;D

Thanks a lot :)

I decided to live without widgetlocker so my previous question about disabling Theme Chooser applies no longer.

Now, I have another question how to change original reboot option function to power off?

If it is not possible, is it possible to simply remove that option from the menu for good?

Weird... WiFi works quite well for me!

Guys! I strongly suggest not to trash this thread about problems with custom configuration.

It's your problem and your risk - so DO NOT EXPECT DEVS OR ME to solve your problems. More: I do not want to read post about "problems" which are just puny attempt to fix what is not broken.

I do not speak for Cope and WarrenB but i think the feeling is mutual.

Updated from 2003 build to 2903 build. Stock builds - no changes. I have been using "Rotary Revamped" as my lockscreen style (Cyanogen Mod Settings --> LockScreen --> Style Options).

With 2003 (as well as builds before), the rotary arc at the bottom of my lockscreen will cover the whole width of the screen but with 2903 build it covers only 3/4 of it and rest is empty.

Is there a way to fix this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
Docent is 100% correct. If you are gonna make your own changes like.. your own kernel ... and your own modules etc...... dont post anything about it here. We don't support what we don't build ourselves.

Wifi works fine btw.
[HD2 Android SD Development] nygmam:
Use the slider lockscreen instead. This is a known problem (Search the thread) and it needs to be fixed at teh CyanogenMod level...

HTC sync does not recognize the phone

Hi.I love this Android. Is amazing. However I can't sync it with my outlook as the htc sync soft doesn't see the phone now it was working with the android from desirehd is there any way to make it seeing my hd2 with this android:confused:

Hey do any of you have problems with email? When I try to setup my aol mail, it tells me that its the wrong password or name. I know I have the correct name and password though.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shooric:
You are absolutely correct about widgets. Beautiful widgets with weather gives you the same look and feel. Pure messenger looks almost exactly like Sense's friends stream. I have not found any contact widget that will integrate with facebook/twitter/flicker yet. However all of the above do take a huge bite out of memory, not sure if alternatives will have a smaller memory usage then sense.
[HD2 Android SD Development] starsandsoles:
Sorry if this is a noob question that has already been covered, but is anyone having deep sleep problems? I just tried out the Mar. 26 build last night. Didn't really do much, just booted into Android and I went to sleep, and so did the phone. Well, this morning, I woke up, but the phone didn't. The lights on the buttons light up and everything, but the screen didn't want to turn on. So I put in a charged battery and loaded Android again. When I got into work this morning, it wouldn't wake again. Was there something I needed to configure to avoid this? BTW, if it matters, I press the power button to turn the screen off.

Also, I am a TMOUS subscriber, but without a data plan, do I still use the TMOUS builds?

Tom78

Are you just running a local Outlook is it synced to your corporate email/cloud email? If you are just running a local Outlook suggets you move it out to MS Live or Gmail then you can sync your phone it it, have teh benefit of all your stuffing being backed up and access it from anywhere. That way you never have to reenter all thos econtacts just re-sync over the air and your away.

[HD2 Android SD Development] roundel:
Hi all,

I'm a UK T-mobile (SIM locked) user, and have been trying out the last few builds - and love it. Many thanks to cope and warren for an excellent build.

I can see some improvements in data in this build, but it's nowhere near as stable yet as WinMo. I get the little grey H and 3G with grey bars, and apps telling me that I have no data connection. Seems to happen more after moving between cells.

I have a much more worrying problem though, *sometimes* I can't touch my screen. Rather, if I touch it, Android either doesn't notice, or thinks I'm touching somewhere I'm not!

Don't get the same issues when going back to WinMo6.5, so I'm guessing it's not a hardware issue... Next time it happens, I'll go back to an older build on an old SD card to see the difference, but am interested to see if anyone else has seen any problems in this area?

Thanks again,

John

For everyone having problems with the rotary lock screen not showing completely; this is how it was corrected for me:

I overwrote my framework.jar (root/system/framework/) with a pre-CM7 RC3 one and viola, problem fixed.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Straynart:
Connected all day long [I was at home for illness]. So I can confirm it works without any problem for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Straynart:
Erm...I know that is a small mistype, but in french "viola" means "rape". ^^'

So DO NOT mistype this word ! ^^'
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
Strange, that it is an intentional (comic) misspelling of a french word, which is perfectly harmless in English and in fact describes a thing of beauty - the musical instrument.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
just to add to this.

it is also a derivative of Violet which describes a flower, a color, and can be used as a name.

Rape, is also a common (not so common to city folk) name for canola or (rape seed), which is a staple oil used in cooking in canada and other parts of the world.

so... rape rape rape... canola canola canola..... violet violet violet.

lol awesome ;)

Todays discussions

device not rebooting upon update of build after five minutes as described in post 1.

so... if you rename your android folder to something else it breaks the (current) logic that i wrote that auto runs fix_permissions.sh if it exists. check it out

roughly

if [ -e /sdcard/android/fix_permissions.sh ];

(if exists fix_permissions.sh in /sdcard/android)

(there is your problem right there)

then ...

you dont even have to look past line one to see why this is a problem. I strongly urge users:

- to NOT rename their android folder to something else...

- or at least, make sure the build you are running at the time is being ran out of an android folder...

- or if you ABSOLUTELY HAVE to run 2 builds and give one a different folder name other then android... make the other build use the renamed folder... either way..

i do NOT recommend running this build out of any folder other then android. SOOO MANY things rely on this you have no idea.

the color banding fix

I compiled the fix into the 30 build (i tested it all day today), and noticed 0 improvement. infact.. in my opionion (and i am also a graphic designer.. so I know my graphics) it made it worse. so .... even tho it was a good idea.. im takin it out.

the lockscreen

cyanogen (this means.. dont ask us about this.. also.. WE ALREADY KNOW)

the strip missing in notification pulldown

cyanogen (this means.. dont ask us about this.. also.. WE ALREADY KNOW)

wifi

is working fine... hidden networks can be used. ?? wifi has never been a problem for this build (hidden networks WERE an issue for a while but they have been working for weeks now) its you users that are changing your kernel that are busting wifi. dont ask us how to fix what YOU did.

bt power drain fix

maybe warren can update our current kernel to include the bt power drain fix in the short term?

i think that covers the majority of the issues.
[HD2 Android SD Development] stim141:
Used the latest tMOUS build all day - some issues.

1. Data Connection doesn't seem as disconnect free as the last version. Running on a formatted card new data image. Does reconnect but drops more. Especially during a E/3G/H shift in bad 3g areas. Doesn't freeze up like the past 2 or 3 builds just has a hard time during a reconnect. The switch from 3g to E drops data and does not stay connected - just not seemless.

2. Heat - seems to run VERY hot for some reason - like 44F during normal use - not charging. Will switch to a new battery tomorrow and see (current battery is 1 year old.) Will post the temp graph tomorrow showing usage and battery temps.

3. Battery Usage - during normal use ma's jump and stay in the 200-350 range and never drop down only during a standby. Not running anything other than Button Savior and the Current Widget. - nothing on the home screens.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
@ data drops...

seriously no bs'ing you... i havn't had 1 "network not available" message since I put 0329 on my device. im not joking around. you sure ur issue isn't related to bad signal strength?

EDIT as a test for the TMO users, humor me, and use a root explorer and open for text edit,

/system/build.prop scroll to the bottom of the file and change the dns lines from warren's(tmo) to Everyone else(google) dns servers. perhaps, its an issue with the current tmo dns servers warren has got setup.. (however I HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt this is an issue)

edit so you look like this...

#

# T-Mo Specific Network DNS Entries

#net.ppp0.dns1=10.177.0.34

#net.ppp0.dns2=216.155.175.105

#net.dns1=10.177.0.34

#net.dns2=216.155.175.105

#net.dns3=216.155.165.50

#

# Everyone Else

net.ppp0.dns1=8.8.8.8

net.ppp0.dns2=8.8.4.4

net.dns1=8.8.8.8

net.dns2=8.8.4.4

then save the file and reboot. remember this is just a test.. im not saying this will do anythign other then, change your dns servers from tmo's to the google default.. the ones the rest of us are using. provide feedback if you do this please. thx!

getting a little tired of reading battery related posts.... just being honest. i personally can't do anything about it. so.... most of the battery related comments... are pointless to me.

your hd2 heating up:

um........ again... short of comming to your house and taking it out of your HOT hands so it can cool off, what can i really do about it? what i think it is... (aside from the usual heat created by the processor etc http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qzuR0tKZ3...ACw/HTxrD_oBoNU/s1600/Jan+29th+iphone+006.JPG - looks like a processor and other componets that give off heat are located down there also) is the antena's getting warm.. think im on crack? well for those of you who wern't around about a month ago, I performed open heart surgery on two hd2's. I've seen the inside of the case. and guess what is PLASTERED against the inside-bottom-back side of the casing? thats right. an antenna http://i01.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/902/924/291/291924902_643.jpg (left side bottom covered in white) (3g i believe) call me crazy, but thin metal strips get warm when you run current through them do they not? ;) so.... i wouldnt worry to much about this.... and again... i cant do much about it anyway.

I read a while back about a users touch screen not responding. this is one of two things.

1. ur current install of android is busy doing something in the background like updating apps or syncing to the google servers and thus is lagged at waking.. so just give it some time.. be patient, this will subside. OR

2. your touch screen hardware is starting to fail. (the team already has experience with this problem - as have a LOT of hd2 owners - be gentle with your touch screen;) ) (talk to warren about his experience)

@ the user who wanted a different sdcard-read-setting

bust out a root explorer and open for text editing

/system/etc/init.d/05mountsd

the lines are in there.. and clearly labeled.

(edit it directly on your device) change to your preference

save the file and remove any .bak files that/if may get created.

reboot

You and me both, brother

My issues with this are existential. I have to break my sets at the gym to reach for my phone when a song is not putting me in the mood to pump iron:mad::mad::mad:

And my contribution to the human genome is looking less likely as I have to keep my phone in the lap to have easy access to song controls (long hold volume up down is hit or miss) in order to prevent a vehicular manslaughter, i am committing genocide by irradiating my boys :p:p:p

I believe this should be resolved in the new kernal that waren is working on. I just hope it will be soon, for Junior's sake (single tear runs down the cheek)

[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
I lazyman'ed updated to this build by just copying the folder over and re-using the same data.img with no format. This builds seems more snappy overall and my data connection is much better. The biggest thing is that my battery life was amazing so far. I had terrible drain when I left BT on by mistake earlier but with it off its pretty darn good.

Warren... Cope... I got you guys next paycheck. But till then I'll be testing stuff.
[HD2 Android SD Development] davidshooki:
This is a great build. Short of a consistent data connection (and maybe the screen resolutions- which are easily fixed with an app from the store), it has everything I needed in android fixed and working well. The only point that I have hard time understanding is why the first post states that ppp data is flawless? Isn't that a massive misrepresentation?
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
i dont recall it saying flawless. so ... where is the misrepresentation?

perhaps fully functional threw you off. it does fully function does it not?

and again I have to state that I have had 0 data problems since 032911 so... your gonna have to give me more info on your setup etc if your problems with data are to be addressed.

if u are tmo... did you bother reading the last post where I asked to test something? if not tmo then nm.

If your MMS is working with this build could you please show me your apn settings
[HD2 Android SD Development] Wildcopper:
Did you delete the content of your Android folder first ?

You can usually keep your data.img but all other files have to be deleted and not just overwritten. Remainders of an older build can screw it up.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Wildcopper:
Actually, "rape" is "viol". "Viola" would be the past form of the verb "to rape".

E.g. :

"il viola la femme" means "he raped the woman".
[HD2 Android SD Development] nuron:
Using the latest build and it's going great for me. One question though: is anyone's camera kinda mirrored and upside-down? If I move the camera to the right, the screen moves to the left and vise versa.
[HD2 Android SD Development] asmd6230:
youve got the front camera selected friend.

the hd2 doesnt have a front camera hence the mirrored image. select back camera while in camera mode and you're good to go.

regards,

asmd.
[HD2 Android SD Development] asmd6230:
no i didnt. i figured it was my bad and did a clean install on a formatted card. just so we know, cant quite be done that way. *sheepish smile*

after running this build for half a day, so far this is my observation apart from the obvious:

1) i have spotty 3g coverage. im using simple mobiles unlimited everything which runs on t-mobiles network fwiw. theres 3g, edge frequent transition in my area (even with win mob) and there still is data drops. several times it reconnected itself, a couple i had to do the airplane mode thing. i cant say if its better, but its still resolvable manually and the signs and symptoms of the data disconnect are relatively clear cut. we're getting there folks, patience is a virtue.

2) theres been quite a noticeable improvement in battery life. :D

strange problem,the gallery app not detecting old photos only new ones. :confused:

[HD2 Android SD Development] prashanthm:
Unsuccessful 2nd boot with old data.img……..

Thanks Cope, Warren and other contributors to this build........., Keep up the great work......

+1 ACA = 171

The boot animation provided by evo1rs looks great…..

The circle battery mod provided by cmillens looks good on the notification bar…

I have been using AmeriCanAndroid from the last 6 weeks and it has been an awesome experience on the HD2……

A question on the latest builds.

I was using the 5-MAR build with my old data.img from 27-FEB (created using 26-FEB build) and wanted to try the new builds.

With the new builds and my old data file, I am not able to load android after reboot. First boot works fine, but when I reboot from android, my HD2 is stuck on the htc logo screen forever and I had to pull the battery, overwrite the whole Android folder and boot again. Sometimes, I also see hundreds of *.REC files (32 KB each) as if the system is trying to create a new data file.

I tried 20-MAR, 26-MAR & 29-MAR builds…..

I am not even sure if this is a data.img issue, just wanted to report the issue as i noticed it.......

I may probably have to create a new data.img file, but I want to leave it as the last option……… Also, if I have to go with a new data.img file, is there a way to restore my messages onto the new build. I know I can back them up into my google account, but I wanted to know if there is any way to restore them into the new build with a fresh data.img file.

Please advise if there is anything worth trying that I have missed……..

You can Sync your company exchange to both your WM6.5 Image & Android. Mine is Synced to 3 mobile images, 2 desktops & 2 laptops (hopefully a Notion Ink Adam will be added to the fleet). Becuase exchange is a sync relationship it is designed for this very purpose to be synced to multiple devices without conflicts. Just setup a new email acocunt on your droid, select manual settings and click the 'exchange' option. Use same settings as WM6.5.

Second , when i try to change setcpu to interactive mode , force close .

Third , Button Savior always force close when i restart my HD2 , i must reinstall everytime after reboot .

Pls anybody like me ?

Finally went and upgraded from my daily rock solid build of 02/16/11 - Literally been using this build since it came out and it has no major issues, great battery life as well. A couple of data drops every so often is all.

Decided to upgrade to the latest 03/29/11 to try out the data fixes and the cyanogen updates, and took a chance with my 02/16/11 data image, it works like a charm.

Very happy, I think this is the longest I have used one build since I got my phone. It wipes the floor with the other builds and the latest sdcard cache fixes really put the icing on the cake and the cherry on the top.
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
This is a sure sign of a corrupt SD card. I would check it with with Windows (properties/tools/checknow) before continuing to use it. You can safely delete all the .REC files.

Wonderful! It shows in great work of the masters (Copes, Warren ....)
