[HD2 Android SD Development] DanS:
I have just updated to th latest June 8th release and tried to connect to my VPN via VPNC Widget. VPN works just fine from my laptop, but won't work on my HD2.

I tried "lsmod" in terminal emulator and it states that tun.ko is running ("live"). So when I start VPNC widget it connects but immediately disconnects again. The SessionLog states:

disconnect phase...
ip: can't find device 'tun0'
ip: an inet prefix is expected rather than ""

Does one of you know how to fix the problem? Would really appreciate the help!
[HD2 Android SD Development] tsem006:
Same problem with VPN....
[HD2 Android SD Development] Caporeira:
Thank you very much :)

I repeat me question

2. It is possible when i tapp in my dialer, (in top screen show me only number) top screen also Contacts ?

"Enter name or number"

some wont like that -> androidboss.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/fe3f51950fialer1.png.png

Ps. Sorry for my bad english. It is possible please correct my bad text - i learning.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
You would like to type in the name of one of your contacts, instead of a number to find that contact? That's what you mean, right?

That doesn't work with the build in dialer but there are alternative dialer apps, free and paid, in the android market. Go and have a look. Maybe one of them offers the option you are looking for.
[HD2 Android SD Development] rustamg:
hey guys , how do we select audio files from the sd card to play as ringtones ... . The option is available on other builds but cant find it on americandroid ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Search the thread for "ringtone". You have to create a number of folders and put the songs in. After a reboot those songs will appear as choices in you ringtone settings.
[HD2 Android SD Development] scoobykanye:
Whats the status of wifi tethering in the 0608 build???
[HD2 Android SD Development] codiak:
Is there no chance to get custom ringstones without pushing them to the androidfs (thats what happend if you do it that way)?
[HD2 Android SD Development] rustamg:
do the "ringtone" folders stay in root directory ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
just create the folders Ringtones and Notifications in Media folder on SD Card, and put files there
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Well, this is what one of the devs posted.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12434352&postcount=3520

If there was an easier way, he probably would have said so.

Maybe there are options for this in sense builds and the like. But in the normal Android you have to do it the hard way.

Do you really change ringtones that often, that you have a problem with it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Yes, you can leave them there, or erase them, doesn't matter.

But I think you can't do this out of Android.

You have to create those folders and copy the songs in, out of winmo our using a cardreader.
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
thats what works for me:

SDCard/Media/Ringtones/<mp3 files here>

and

SDCard/Media/Notifications/<mp3 files here>

I can't find in this thread a way of increasing the font or icon size.

Is there a way of doing this?

Thanks in advance

USB to Phone | Files not direct visible, reboot needed

Nevermind........Got the answer below
[HD2 Android SD Development] deviljf:
Yes that is the USB to phone problem.
[HD2 Android SD Development] TonyOCL:
Actually I had read the first page and searched with "Font", Size and ICON...

But then I never though of resolution.

This build is set to 167 lcd density for screen resolution. if you prefer larger icons and fonts, before you boot android - copy the root folder from

/sdcard/android/240buildprop/root<-here to

/sdcard/android/root <-here

and boot.

Battery drain ..back again ?!

Hi,

i am on the latest build (0806). I have tried ..lets say...every second build...

This time (0806) battery drain is a issue again. Without bluetooth we are back at 60-80mAh. Sometimes it is 9-10mAh...but only very few times.

Rebooted...settled phone...switched wifi/gps on/off...

Even in flight modus >100 mAh :confused:

What are your experiences with 0806 ?!
[HD2 Android SD Development] newbietruly:
It's in SetCPU. You'd need to get that from Market.

For people who has Wifi Tethering issue, please download from 1st post (NOT from here) as instructed by Cope.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dttung80:
Not the weekly Buger, but the last have more powerful, less lag, less FC/Wait... some litle time delay cause transfer internet data.

Thanks.

Working with WiFi Tether 3.0 pre 14.

It is not working with build in android tether....but this was not working for me in the last 20 builds... :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] prashanthm:
Similar experience with my 0608 build, but I would give it two more days and few more reboots before starting to worry too much......
[HD2 Android SD Development] sack02:
I have a dream.....

one day there will be a stable build with

- no battery drain

- bluetooth working

- no SODs

- WiFi tether working

- SD card mount working

ALL at the same time with the same build !!!!

As i like "playing" around with my HD2 :) ...i give myself 1-2 more months updating every 3 days...

then i will probably sell my HD2 and buy a native Android phone or a iPhone (uhhh) and start using it just as a normal phone and not as a toy....:D

Thanks for your feedback
[HD2 Android SD Development] scpion:
Unfortunately, I have tried your method but mine still stubbornly refuse to work.. It gets connected but PC always shows "identifying.. connected with limited access".. while the phone can connect thru its browser..

Cant get barnacle tether to work either.. not even able to connect at all..

I have no idea whats wrong...
[HD2 Android SD Development] Imperator Nick:
Im still in DC/wait land, grrr. Might try another format, but not sure that will help, data connection has been pretty flakey too.

[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
Defragging a solid state drive is pointless guys. Stop wasting ur time and our forum space on this topic
[HD2 Android SD Development] scpion:
Well, the method is refering to the native one found in the wireless settings..

I am using that and it just refuse to work.. did u use any other settings?
[HD2 Android SD Development] clarkg:
Sure... get a native Android phone... with an earlier version of Android (which might still have issues like the exchange syncing problem which is fixed for us now), very infrequent updates and no easy rollback if you don't like the update or it causes issues. When you have problems you get to post them in Android bug forums and generally get ignored for a long time. Or just come here...

Or... you could get an iPhone and everyone who has a brain will think you're an idiot because you're happy to have only what Jobs says you can have on your phone.
[HD2 Android SD Development] newbietruly:
Nope, no extra settings. I just set up the SSID and password. Have you done a fresh install with new data.img?
[HD2 Android SD Development] geenyous:
never gets old... :cool:
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
Yea, you would be better off with an iPhone...

no battery drain.. the words pipe dream come to mind.

bluetooth works for many people

SOD's aren't an issue after a couple of restarts and re-installs

Wi-fi tether works for many people

SD card mounting works for many people including me.

So, yea try the iPhone... I hear it has some cool new features in iOS :cool:5.
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
I am using the new build and now I got a bunch of the FC/W errors at first. Some apps needed to be uninstalled and re-downloaded to work agian.

On memory

2 partition:

1 fat32 primary (android)

2 Unformatted no primary but no possible primary(wm7)

No other partition
[HD2 Android SD Development] maksimo:
I have resolved:

1.Install wm7 on nand with memory card

2.Remove memory card and formatted 8gb in fat32

3.Formatted wm7 (no memory card internal)

4.Configured wm7 (no memory card internal)(lang etc etc)

5.Copy android on memory card

6.Insert memory card (with only 1 partition) fat32

Now Wm7 and Android perfect in all

:D

Does anyone getting ~60-70mh drain after bluetooth use which stays untill you next reboot you device??? I've noticed this issue with past few builds
[HD2 Android SD Development] aryden:
issues

After updating to the newest build (0608) and restoring using Titanium backup i am running into these issues:

1) When accessing the android market, i get com.android.media has stopped working.

2) market crashes.

3) upon reboot, my PIN to unlock the phone is denied.

4) Gmail crashes

now I can't get access to my phone at all...
[HD2 Android SD Development] webvan:
So not much storage for WP7 as it will be only internal? Also what do you mean by "3.Formatted wm7 (no memory card internal)". Isn't WP7 going to erase the microSD the next time you boot?

On a different matter, I configured some SIP calling yesterday with the default dialer and GV Callback and also SIPDroid and CSipSimple and the quality is poor, cracks and drops, unlike my iPhone 3Gs :-( Anyone else notice these problems?
[HD2 Android SD Development] sack02:
No. After having my "Döner Thursday" and having my HD2 settled for a few hours i has at 9mAh without Bluetooth. Synced Outlook via Bluetooth (60mAh) and disabled bluetooth again. Back to 10mAh. But somethings wrong with battery drain for me with this build. But i havent found a reason for ocasionally higher drain yet. Will settle and see...
[HD2 Android SD Development] DanijasDub:
Maybe i'm wrong about BT then, it must be something else maybe GPS...

I'm geting hudge drain anyway... Will try to investigate more...
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
After you updated, (but before you restored things with titanium backup) your phone would have been working fine. right? logically the answer is yes.

so.... logic also dictates that it was something that you restored that caused your phone to go into a locked out mess of shinanigans.

so. logically, i recommend re-copying the build to your device. use a NEW data.img and THIS time....... be aware of what you are restoring.

its been covered over and over again in the thread, so it should be easy to find out what you should and should not restore.......

===that said===

1. technically we arn't supposed to be able to update to a new build without fresh installing every time. we are just lucky that it works for us.

^^

knowing this, naturally you backed up your data.img before you updated.

remove the current existing android folder off your device.

copy the new builds android folder TO your device.

copy your backed up data.img (your last good working one) to your /sdcard/android folder on your device.

boot android. done. no issues.

if you have problems after doing this.... i will personally help you fix the issue in real time over the IM'ing client of your choosing.

if however you cannot complete the proceedure cause you didnt backup your data.img OR you restored with titanium backup and again run into problems. unfortunetly there isnt much I can do for you.

=====

this is why we developed our own method of backing up and restoring things (see bkup2sdext) which to me.. has been more reliable then titanium backup.

hope this helps. if i sound harsh I apologise. this post should be viewed logically as opposed to emotionally.

[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
as well as turning off gps to test.. also go into settings location and turn off the wifi based location service.

just somethign to think about for those testing bat drain.

ima address previous posts here:

the user moving to a new phone in 1 to 2 months. :) new phones are always good. every day that goes by tho that you keep ur hd2.. is money saved and potential to have "that much better" of a phone when you finally do migrate. :) but whatev's its your money.. ur phone... ur decision to make :) until u switch tho i hope we keep u happy with ur hd2.

netflix: im pullin netflix from the AndroidApps folder. if you guys want we can add a netflix entry to the user maintained mods section - like we did for the bat circle mod and sense mod. as a third party app that now requires additional attention, watching for updates, etc... this one is now up to the users to take care of.

titanium backup: same as above.

(side benefit ~6mb shaved off the zipped build size)

update process started.

purpose. correcting errors to vpn implementation. & last 24 hrs of cyanogenmod changes.

[HD2 Android SD Development] DanijasDub:
everything is turned off, tried with two different battery's, i always do fresh install on fully formated card , i don't use any partitions or old data img, i've noticed these symphtoms few builds ago then warren changed kernel now testing drains on old kernel i think it was 18/05 (to be sure that fault is not caused by my phone) so far it was the best on battery side comparing to new one's or maybe i'm wrong:):):)... overall your builds are f*****g awesome :) keep up guys, good work...

I ever lost phone and ever used iPhone in shortly time. And try to sell it as soon as possible to use Android, cause iOS really iDiot.

1 normal question Jobs never can answer that: HOW TO SWITCH 1 FROM MY TASKS? Haha.

In android simple Task switch program.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
I will give iPhone credit where it deserves. On the consumer market, it's a punisher. A solid platform that handles the great majority of what folks want to do day to day.

Where iPhone fails is in the pro-user and business markets. This shortcoming is underlined by Apple's statements which indicate the business/enterprise isn't their target for ANY of their core products. Android is quickly catching up to Windows Mobile in regards to enterprise level manageability. Android also handles day to day activities like no tomorrow.

This is what makes it ridiculous. Apple is always seen as a premium brand, yet in the business realm....Apple shouldn't be taken serious.

Problems with lost settings after reboot

from my original post last night:

from your reply:

Well, it seems they are many many more now...

...

How did you get me to be "so quick to blame us" ? There was nothing to blame you or to bash the build. It was just to issue a warning. And since my warning, many other people have faced this problem. After all, these threads are all about helping either the developers for improving their builds, by reporting problems and making some tests, or to help users with how to use these builds.

I really appreciate your work, and I like this build since the beginning, maybe just a little bit less for this particular release.

Alain.
[HD2 Android SD Development] alaindev:
So now, let's try to catch this issue (lost settings after reboot).

I retried everything from the beginning, and the result is the same : whenever I reboot I loose my settings, like the alarms I set with the clock app.

Here are the scientific facts :

- I reformated everything : FAT32, ext3, swap (yes I switched from ext4 to ext3 just in case of).

- I downloaded the very latest build "b" AmeriCanAndroid SD Standard, the file being named copeNwarren 022411b.7z, and extracted it, and copied the Android folder to my SD card

- I booted a first time and let it settle a bit

- I setup some alarms with the clock

- I did not modify anything else

- I rebooted [more scientifically: I first power off; let it some time off; then booted again]

- and BOOM the alarms have returned to their default values

Now, let's tackle this in an organized way.

Copenhagen, Warren and Docent, you all three are saying that you can't reproduce this.

But are you sure, in the first place, that you are using the SAME build ? I mean, you probably use an in-house version, but have you tried to actually download the 7-zipped files ? There is always the possibility that some file has been corrupted. Maybe it even depends from which site we have downloaded (multiupload, rapidshare, hotfile...).

To Warren: maybe you would never notice the problem, because you don't have the same phone (I have the european HD2), and therefore not the same version of the build (standard vs TMoUS).

To Docent: you have tried to reproduce, but during your procedure you have restored with Titanium Backup, thus you no more have clean conditions for comparison.

And a final note : I have noticed that the build.prop file has been messed up in the Feb24 "b" version. This file sets up both the TMo DNS and the Google DNS at the same time, and has commented out the Docent settings. Can you check if this is what you intended ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] cmillens:
Ditto

I am home now - YEAH! WEEKEND! WOOT!!

+1 on the above .. every bit of it.

I am able to reproduce the above scenario 100% of the time with the 0224b build files I have downloaded. I have a TMoUS HD2. I am located in Denver, Colorado if that helps any.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
^^I dont like this part at all my friend.^^

you havnt the slightest how old I am. and far from the truth me being unfriendly to people who try to help. i think the people who try to help are fantastic, sometimes-the odd individual seems to rattle my cage, however, same coin other side; while i need to learn to relax, those other people need to learn this is how i am. I mean no offense, and by no means wish to offend anyone, in anyway. So if I did offend I apologize. The fact that I spend so much time here.. should account for something yes? im not here for just myself ;)

either way you and i have been having communication issues. lets start again.

Hello Copenhagen, nice to see you with us

OK, it is mounted on /sd-ext type ext3

Unfortunately, it has been 10 min or more now that I am stuck after the reboot (1).

Should I wait more, or should I reset ?

EDIT: after waiting for more than 20 min, I decided to reset (small red button).

However, after another try to reboot, I am again stuck at the green HTC logo on black background.

I think I will give up for now. It is 2 o'clock in the night here, and I really need to go sleeping.

Im happy i have not been having any of the problems reported with this build (thank god)

My setup:

warrenNcopeTMo 022411b

Tmous Htc hd2,

Radio:2.15.50.14

Winmo 6.5

8gig Sandisk Sd card (not sure what class?)

I have sd card partitioned as (Faq instructions) using Mtpw. (Fat32,ext3,linux swap all set as primary)

I tried the above scenario setting alarms and rebooting (shutting off and waiting few min, then turning back on) a few times and my alarms were still there. Also my settings are staying with reboots. Only weird thing that has happened (once) was the phone locked up while i was playing w the camera and going into the gallery it froze and had to take the battery out to recover, and maybe battery life not quite as good as (feb 16) build.

These are my findings so far with the 022411b build...

[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
!! WE HAVE NOT TESTED EXT4 WITH THE BUILD YET !!

@user requesting how to ext3 to ext4

First get to ext3.

how to change an ext2 filesystem (should you still have one) to ext3 (enabling the journal feature), use the command:

run terminal on your device. (dont type the #'s at the beginning of the lines)

# su

# tune2fs -j /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

upgrade to ext4 on an existing ext3 filesystem, use the command:

#######its an OH not a ZERO!!! ##############

# tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

(WARNING: Once you run this command, the filesystem will no longer be mountable using the ext3 filesystem!) <-- dont worry about this warning

After running this command (specifically, after setting the uninit_bg parameter), you MUST run fsck to fix up some on-disk structures that tune2fs has modified:

### its -fDCZERO not OH###########

# e2fsck -fDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
