USB to PC

The problem identified in the previous build still exists. Android can still see the wider SD card when PC is connected.

Another flawless update...

...and looking great so far, thanks Cope and Warren!

BTW...a few weeks ago (and a few hundred pages ago) I posted about an issue with Exchange mail where it stops syncing until you give it a reboot, that I had tracked down to an issue in Android 2.3 here:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14466

There's been some stellar work done by one guy on there and he may have fixed it by adding one line of code (see comment 71 in the thread). He's still testing his addition but it looks promising.

I might try to post it in the cyanogen issues link from the first post here, but if they don't pick it up does it sound like the sort of fix you could apply to your build when you compile? Would be a great addition for AmeriCanAndroid to have the first properly stable Exchange syncing. Not to mention fantastic for me personally as I sync 2 exchange accounts.

I've never looked at how to compile a build and to be honest there's no way in hell I could take their code and produce what you do. I'm a Systems Engineer at work, but spend all my days building Windows servers with Microsoft applications running on them so haven't had the time to get too far into learning linux\android under the hood. I can move files around, chmod and edit them but that's about it.

Anyway, I'm subscribed to that issue so will keep an eye on it and let you know if it's the answer.

Cheers

hi Warren and Cope,

Install your build using data image from 15/05

1- Great boot Animation!!

2- My DR-BT100CX connected on the prvious is discovered and flagges as paired. But no way to connect.

3- Unpaired the device, redo pairing and bingo, 2 minutes later it was working.

4- reset the device, switch on the BT device, go music and bingo again it works!!!

5- Wifi, data not worth than 15/05 build (too early to have a final assessment!!)

6- USB connection working as prvious build.

7- Performances whise, Quadrant give an average index 1550, may be 50 more than previous build

Again great job guys.

Thks

No matter how many times you ask this question, the answer will always be the same.

It's broken, you need a new one.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Nelthalin:
I'm on the latest 051711 build now (new datafile). So far so good. I will test BT later today. The performane is good! It feels quite snappy compared to my older 041811 install.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Nelthalin:
Crap made a new post....

Btw i love the new boot screen!

You only have two options:

1: Restore your old backup and stay on the old build

2: Backup all apps, settings and stuff put it on the SD card or your pc. Delete android folder and start with a new data.img

There is no other way.
[HD2 Android SD Development] rgshah3:
btw where exactly is d data.img situated????? :-P
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
There isn't one. It is created by the build when you boot for the first time.
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
How did you create your first data.img? If I am not wrong you recently came to this thread. You have absolutely refused to read. You keep on asking the same question every other 2 pages or so. How did you get your "old" data image that is now causing FCs?

Hi uzi2,

I am trying to get the tablet tweaks working on the latest ACA build for quite some time now but am obviously doing something wrong 'cause I keep ending up corrupting the ACA build.

The OP says framework-res.apk should be unpacked to system/framework. Guess I'm doing something wrong as my attempts seem to break the build and ACA is refusing to boot. Following is what I did:

01. My ACA build folder name is "0517AmCan". While booted in ACA, tried to copy/paste the framework-res.apk file using RootExplorer to /sdcard/0517AmCan/system/framework/framework-res.apk. But, ACA does not come up after a reboot, so I guess the build got corrupted.

02. Seeing the instructions on how to change framework-res.apk given at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12189777&postcount=2883, created a folder as "root" in the /sdcard/0517AmCan folder before booting and unpacked the framework-res.apk file as /sdcard/0517AmCan/root/system/framework/framework-res.apk. Doing so simply corrupts all the files in the build folder (file size becomes 0), so this is again wrong.

I have now run out of ideas. :o Any help to get the tablet tweaks would be greatly appreciated.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ben.marks:
home from uni, time to update ACA :D

cheers cope and warren
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
You should not be renaming the Android folder (changing rel_path) with this build. It will cause problems.

You should give ES File Explore su. Copy framework-res.apk to system/framework and reboot.

New to Android

A little history, a little help please.

I am a Windows Mobile user since 2003, currently on HD2 experimenting with various SD loaded Android builds as I know I will need to upgrade to a new phone at some point.

I really like WM 6.5.3, I also like iOS but I have very poor eyesight and cannot use a 3.5” or 4” screen, hence my exploring Android via SD vs. a NAND installation as I can quickly get back to what I am familiar with during business hours.

Being on AT&T I have my eyes set on the yet to be released HTC Holiday (4.5” qHD screen)

Getting used to Android is not so natural to me in trying to do some basics:

1) I have now tried 2 SD builds of Android and CANNOT get my Voyager Pro BT headset to be discovered, nor paired. It works flawlessly with WM

2) Installed Smart Dialer and tried to make it the default dialer but that setting does not seem to stick.

3) Tried like hell to get K-9 email app to connect to my SBS 2008 exchange 2007 with no joy, yet Androids built in mail app does it on 1st try. I cannot understand why this most popular email app is having so much trouble with exchange.

4) Android browser does NOT seem to rewrap text when zooming in (nor do any iOS browsers, yet Opera 9.7x in WM does a fabulous job on this.

5) I need to be able to enlarge text on every screen, system wide, be able to zoom in on email messages, browsers, etc.

SO I thought I’d share my woes just in case others have had the same issues and possible solutions.

I am not sure if this has to do with SD loaded Andorid vs. just Android itself.

Getting BT headset to work is essential, K-9 email seems to have many users with the same issue when it comes to connecting with Exchange 2007.

Anyone with answers is appreciated, If I am wrong in posting this here, my apologies in advance.

Thanks,

Problems loading android

Hi everybody

I have a strange problem with my HD2 , i tried to load AmeriCanAndoid via SD on my WinMo HD2 , with the last version of Official ROM and last radio version2.15.50****

and my phone freezes, this happens with any sd-android from now ...... before trying this rom i could use any android-sd

i also can't load android via nand, what could i do ? i formatted the sd, i re-install the rom ...but no changes so please , what could i do??

SD Card not recognizing stuff copied through USB connection

Yesterday I loaded the version 12 May via the SD card method. (Extracting the SD card and inserting it into the laptop) Also reformatted every partition according the google DOC in the first post. Well everything booted up fine and I let Android recreate the image file the first time in two months. The good news is that for the first time I had below 10 mA battery drain and the MMS is working for the first time correctly (no changes in the APN settings from the previous built). Thx guys !

The connection now to USB looks like it is wokring perfectly. I copied mp3 and titanium backup files to the SD card from Windows through the USB connection. The problem however is that after i disconnect the usb connection from Android side the directories is not visible from Android file manager. I will try to switch off Android and copy using the laptop SD card method but I would like to know how to fix this please.
[HD2 Android SD Development] pwhitrow:
I have the same problem as deviljf (files not visible after USB transfer), and yes I have disconnected USB correctly (turn off, eject etc). Funny thing is, I actually prefer the method from one of the last builds that allowed transfer from PC as soon as USB was connected (showed instantly in explorer), and the files would always show in HD2 after transfer. Is there a possiblity of having this as an option?

I thought i had this problem, however my usb to pc worked fine, plugged it in and transferred the file across

turned of usb to pc via the notification bar and unplugged cable.

at first the file wasn't visible in file explorer, but then i noticed that android was "preparing sd card" again, like when it first boots, after it had finished preparing, my file had shown up.

i haven't seen this lag in any other build since the last few, ever since the usb problem started.

also just updated, running quadrant benchmark i get 1462

data seems slower to connect on this one. anyone else?

But seriously. Yet again, I successfully upgraded using my old and trusted data.img. Everything working 100% .... but I still see reboot option after long press of the red button.

Not a big deal. It would just be good to know whether I am the only one with the spare option.

A PRAISE

Today I felt the full power of my HD2, Android as OS and the stability of this built. I did about 7 hours of driving around London, M25 visiting several addresses. They all needed to synchronise their activities with my whereabouts. My phone was running Glympse an application that displays my location in real time over internet. All collaborators knew where I am and exactly when to expect me. At the same time - my phone was running CoPilot for so much needed navigation. Whilst driving I had to make several phone calls - whilst above apps were running - I used the speaker phone - and the sound was brilliant. Whilst talking to them I even managed to type notes in a text message window, which I then sent to several recipients.

The phone and all systems behaved just as I expected them. The only thing was that it was draining battery faster than it could charge. But not much - for 7 hours - it dropped from 100 to 60% - with all that heavy usage of course whilst being on charge.

I wonder if this is due to my battery being old .. or simply because of the sheer volume of load on the CPU, screen, internet, GPS, speakerphone etc .. ?

Anyways - thanks - many thanks for such a fantastic built!

+1 Tried what was suggested by Copenhagen by updating the adb/usb driver via the PC but still have the problem when copying files through the usb and it becoming unseeable in Android. And yes...i did eject when in windows before switching off the usb from Android...

The long way around is to switch off, take out your sd card from the phone and copy the files from the laptop straight to the SD card which I tested now again and rebooting etc. 10 minutes to get my music back on the card to have music while running. Hey !, thats not so bad :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] rweitsz:

[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
I take it you are booting from Magldr then. Those with WinMo can safely use that.

Other ways include Dropbox and Wifi Explorer...
[HD2 Android SD Development] deviljf:
No, SD card. Yes thx, I forgot about dropbox but have used Android Commander also now on Windows PC side.

Right in the beginning when I started using Android somebody spoke about Android Commander and I searched and searched to find this app only to discover at a later stage that it was part of the Android development tools on the PC. For the people who doesn't know Android Commander is a file browser and app installer running on the pc and it "sees" the phone automatically when you open the program when connected to the usb. Check it out. Google "android development tools" and find out how easy it is to write a app for your android phone.

What am I doing wrong?

I have been using this ROM since the April 12 version. Every time I download a newer version I have issues of stability. I immediately go back to the 04/12 version. I know I'm doing something wrong, but can't determine what it is.

I have a 32gb SD card class 10.

(1) I download the newest ROM.

(2) Unzip ROM

(3) Open the folders until I reach "Android"

(4) Rename 04/12 ROM version

(4) Copy "Android" folder to SD card root

(5) Click CLRCAD

(6) Click Haret

(7) ROM runs

I restarted the phone several times before making changes to home screen.

No problems at first, but then there problems with the screen turning on. Phone freezes. I have to take the battery out and restart. I download the May 12 version. Worked for a day, but then completely crash. Everything forced closed.

Downloaded May 17 ROM. Very slow response when I press screen. Several force closes of market. When screen locks if I press the end button, no response. Screen remains black. Had to take battery out and restart.

Any suggestions before I go back to 04/12 ROM again? Thanks.

0512 build has better data stability for me. 0517 spent more time with no service then with service. The new boot animation was amazing! BT from 0512 to 0517 seems the same.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Imperator Nick:
Wel that was all a bit odd. First boot got stuck and restarted itself. Second boot took ages but worked, although it lost all my widgets and everything was insanely sluggish. Restarted again and it booted quicker and everything seems to be back up to speed now, although still no widgets so have to delete and reset those....slow to bed in I guess but hopefully it will run smooth from here on
[HD2 Android SD Development] newbietruly:
"32gb SD card class 10" = problem... most likely. There have been reports of class 10 SD cards not performing as well as they should. If you have a class 2, 4 or 6 try them (Format FAT32 & Clean Install). I have a class 2 16Gb myself and it looks like it's running faster and smoother than my friend's Nexus S. :D Of course, Cope and Warren have something (okay, a lot!) to do with it.

BT issues

Is it normal to have BT paired and connected to my car system, then after about 5 mins or so, it would disconnect?

Is anyone else having these BT issues with the 5.12 build?

Im on USA tmobile.

**Oh, BTW thanks for doing this my donation will be on the way!
[HD2 Android SD Development] Drakosha:
Hello.

Just want to share my experience with BT problems on the latest builds - may be it will help to fix them...

Standard BT handsfree (I have Logitech) connects & works flawlessly. There was a problem with pairing on the builds from 1 may till 12 may, now it's almost gone.

The main problem now is SE LiveView. It used to work great on older builds, and not so great - on May 1st build, but now it doesn't work at all. :( However, the WAY it behaves may actually help to solve the BT issue.

1 - It connects, and even displays its menu, but the "link" between phone & the device doesn't last for more than a second.

2 - When the link is lost, any attempt to reconnect seems to slow down the pairing process - however the delay IS greatly decreased in 05\17 build. This slowdown affects not only LiveView, but every BT device.

3 - If, during the slowdown, you press "Discoverable" on & then off, everything turns to normal, like if BT chip was "revived". After that, LiveView connects flawlessly, and of course, loses connection in a second :(

So, I think that the problem is - BT driver doesn't check if the device is still connected, and after the first "handshake" it immideately puts phone's BT hardware to energy saving state, in which, as far as I can see, handsfree & headsets work, but LiveView & car adapters - do not.

It also makes sense of why the pairing process gets "slowed" after unsuccessful connection attempt - BT needs some time to switch modes, the driver tells that there's no connected device - while LiveView keeps connecting, resulting in a loop :(

Please, is there a way to completely "revert" BT drivers to those of early builds? Or, at least. can someone share a link to the latest AmericAndroid build with working BT? I hate to stay with 2.2 Sense versions just to keep my LiveView working :(

Thanks in advance,

With great respect - Draco.

from the sounds of it you've only had issues upgrading..... which we all know a wipe of all data will fix.

I will be reverting the 60mah power drain fix next time around. I'd rather excessive battery drain than doom half the bluetooth devices.

[HD2 Android SD Development] daniel_kiefer:

[HD2 Android SD Development] general1977:
I understand your point, however a phone constantly drawing 60mA with bluetooth on is not an option for me. Bluetooth needs to be always on, so the phone can automatically connect to my bluetooth carkit without user interaction.

I also don't quite understand where this step will lead this build. If you revert to the old bluetooth system, all devices will work, but people will be shouting about high battery drain. How are you planning on fixing the issue without trying and waiting for user feedback? Do you think this is a Cyanogen issue?

Whatever happens, I hope this will be figured out in a while, so I can return to this beautiful build. It would be nice if there were a big (!!!) hint on the first page at that time, that bluetooth is fixed, so I don't have to read hundreds of pages a month. ;)
