Super Mario 64

Wow, Mario64 runs full speed with N64oid in 0308 build. Incredible!

Standby battery drain is very good with BT off - 4-7mA.

The issues with this build:

- Microphone audio input is fixed, but audio routing is still messed up with Sipdroid for bluetooth headset. When making outbound call, sound is routed to BT headset but not mic. When receiving calls, none is routed to BT headset. So far I see audio routing for BT works only with one single build - tytung NexusHD2 with hastarin's r8.6_oldcam

- Standby drain jumps to 60+mA if BT is enabled

- Wifi tethering not working

- SPB TV black screen

- 3G need toggling and may hang, due to kernel lacking low memory tweak

See http://bit.ly/hUCNww for more details.

sorry if this has been asked before i have searched through the faq and read the first 6 pages of this thread but my eyes are not as good as they use to be getting old now)

great build smooth and fast,i want to change the screen icons and text size i know i have to change the build.prop file but what do i change it from to anyone help please.

cheers thanks for the quick reply
[HD2 Android SD Development] karlfergy:
hi iv'e tried that it was set to

ro.sf.lcd_density=240rild.libpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so

so i changed it to

ro.sf.lcd_density=280rild.libpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so

and no change still everything is small.

I had data drops after a call. Some one have the same issue? Fix it with the airplane mode trick.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mdthompson12:
That is actually the correct link, the date just wasn't updated.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Straynart:
Read only ?…

I try to change the density, but the file seems to be in read-onlu mode for me [I use ES File Explorer].

Otherwise, does someone have the data problem ?

Or does someone can explain to me why sometime the topbar icon for data is green or gray ?

I thought if the icons are green, then the data is available, and gray for unavailable data.

But sometime, even if the icons are gray, the data is available. So ? =\

Thanks for the feedback some will done.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Where did you change it? build.prop in data.img, out of Android, using a file manager? Did it really save your changes?

Or did you change the build.prop in your Android folder?

Read the FAQ on how to do it right. There is a whole section on how to do it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] t-mizzle:
I don't think the problem is yours. I downloaded and tried it myself and it didn't work. It's kind of funny, we have one HTC phone pretending to be another HTC phone just to be able to connect to HTC sync software. But the problem is, we are lacking another piece of HTC software, HTC sense, it not being a requirement but rather an indicator, phone needs to be android native HTC phone with stock sense running on top for full HTC sync compatibility. Even my G1 can't do it.

Even some android native HTC phones like nexus one (but without HTC Sense) can't utilize internet pass through completely, only for browsing but not for app usage so it's pretty much useless.

Another alternative is to use programs that allow you, in layman's terms, to turn your laptop's wifi receptor into a wifi emitter/router so you can use your

phone's wifi to connect your phone to your laptop or a desktop with a wifi dongle and stream internet connection from your computer to your phone that way.

Connectify is a free program like that, though it's ad supported and only works on windows 7 computers, there are others as well that may be better.

As for our xda thread here, I intend on trying to recreate any of the gremlin issues users report for another week, so post your gremlins folks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mdthompson12:
Your file doesn't look right. You need a line feed after the 280, should look like this:

ro.sf.lcd_density=280

rild.libpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so

And, as shamez said, make sure you are editing the build.prop file under the root/... directory.

special update method required for Linux users?

Hey guys...

I wonder if there's a way to go around the special update method to 030811 for partitioned sd card users?

In the end we use our old data.img so I assume there is something to be changed in the extN partition, which Windows users can't access because it has an extN file system (in my case N=4).

I, as a Linux-only user, CAN access this partition. So could you tell me what has to be changed?

Would save a lot of time and just senseless work...

Thank you in advance! :)

my full charged HD2 lost his battery charge in 7 Hours, to 0

at 50% i recognized it, restarted phone, but it lost battery charge very quick

my HD2 did nothing, not even a call today, it lays the hole time on my desk

can someone confirm this issues?

using 03_08

with 03_05 i had no problems, best build ever
[HD2 Android SD Development] happyfree:
Very strange that such a powerful system like Android does not offer this kind of functionality (useful by the way)

I will try with Wifi but do you know another program like connectify working on Windows XP?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Luke15153:
I am not the only one with this problem;)

My data connection drops after each call when on 2G and even sometimes when on 3G. The grey connection icon comes back after the call, the arrows above are blinking a couple of times, but no internet connection any more.

I tried a lot of things like changing to wcdma preferred but got no success :mad:

Other people in the forum do not have this problem => must be something in our configuration.

Cope, Warren, is there anything we can try to locate this issue?

I noticed that it starts with the 0301 ROM.

Use another SD Gingerbread build that doesn't rely on the hard work cope,warren and the guys from cyanogenmod team put in solely to outrage us with data drops.

Oh wait. There is no such build?

[HD2 Android SD Development] t-mizzle:
Connectify is very different than spotify is a music app AFAIK.

Carriers like AT&T and Verizon push against these features being embedded because they bypass their extra fees like charges for tethering.

Two faced bastards don't want you to strain their networks but they also don't like you to be on wifi so you can oveid their data and talk minutes fees.

Your choice is very limited with XP OS

http://www.virtual-ap.com (seems easy to set up but costs money after trial)

As for 4-5 gremlin bugs members posted, I have 0 success recreating them. The closest I got to an error was I tried to enable wifi tethering through settings and it threw an error yet it works flawless when I scroll down the app list to wifi tether. It works without a hitch. As for data stablity, on feb 26, mar01 and mar05 builds, I get disconnected maybe once or twice a day, sometimes the connection is stable for 10 hours straight.

a few months ago data was "outrageous".. its improved significantly since then so

again.. patience please.

the next build will have a 2g data drop fix included... if it works we will keep it in for future builds... (I'm testing it right now)

is there a secret procedure for wlan to work, or just plug and play ?

or a bug in this version of the rom ?

Data connection good, but bars staying grey

Just wondering if anyone is having this or is it just me?

On previous builds, when i've had a data connection, the bars turn green. However this time it seems they don't turn green all the time, and quite often during the day today, they have been grey but I've had a superb data connection...:confused:

What does turing green actually mean on the grand scheme of things?

Generally, RTL works: on SMS perfectly - with right-to-left direction of rows,

on Evernote - when I write - it is from right with Alignment to right, but when I read note on Hebrew it written from right to left, but with Alignment to left (the sentence doesn't begin from the right side). When I open this note - it looked normally.

I want to try with another text programs.

Hebrew as language of interface is not so good; some icons and menu last in English. I prefer Russian as interface language

hi there,

im gettting frequent force close error everytime I open angry bird and wireless tether...any idea?

thanks guys...
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
IDEA!

wp7 / magldr users.

I want some information from you if you don't mind please.

there has to be something in, on, about the wp7 partition that android can detect. I have to find out what this is. once I do, I can modify the mountsd

and get docent to modify his swap feature(s) so that they dont EVER touch the wp7 partition. Not sure how we are going to do this yet. But this should cut down on the 'edit this file to activate this feature' etc etc stuff thats currently going on.

so.. what I need from you.

what is the partition label of the wp7 partition

what is the file type of the wp7 partition

.. um.. hmmm i need some way to detect it's presence.

starting search now.
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
force close errors.

run rom manager from app drawer.

choose fix permissions.

when done reboot.

wireless tether.

goto /system/app/

find wirelesstether.apk

click it and reinstall it.

if you continue to have errors

IN wifi tether choose middle hard key (options key) and choose reinstall binaries.

fixed

and

fixed.

i think people worry to much about this.

if they are green your device is connected to the google servers...

which means your device can sync receive push notifications etc etc etc

if they are grey.. you simply arnt connected to the google servers.

you still have internet access.. unless the icon doesnt show.

data's still not 100%.. remember we just updated kernels/ are still dealing with the 2g not reconnecting /and dealing with MAJOR changes to gingerbread. so patience with data is a virtue./

[HD2 Android SD Development] peramikic:
Cope,

This might be a short trip, the partition is not of any known filesystem type, esentialy it like a raw disk, WP7 stripes it with internal memory to create a logical volume, so you can't mount and read the partition FS. It has no label, partition FS is Other and part type is 0x4 but i don't know if you can check for it or not
[HD2 Android SD Development] zarathustrax:
I'm not sure what file type the wp7 partition is... it shows up as unknown or unformatted in every partition manager. As far as I know, WP7 formats it's partition in a way that uses the "secure" part of secure digital cards, as it is setup so that there is no other way to access any data on the wp7 partition without using the wp7 device.

It ends up being the 4th partition if you setup the SD card to have the ext3 and linuxswap partitions also. The wp7 partition has no partition label, though, and you can't label it with any partition managers because it's seen as an unformatted or unknown partition.

I'm not sure if there's any way to detect it's presence... what problems are it causing? As far as I can tell, WP7 doesn't effect android at all and Android doesn't effect the WP7 partition at all. Why do you say that the swap features touch the wp7 partition at all? I don't see any reason it would touch or effect the wp7 partition at all.
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
we've had reports from users that something was messing up their wp7 partitions.

i'm just being overly cautious as I do NOT want to be the cause of a user to lose an install of another OS due to something my work did....

thats why the extra steps for magldr users to enable bkup2sdext feature.

I figured that if a user was smart enough to do the changes req. they would also be smart enough to have setup their sdcards properly etc. however if we know for a fact that our build is NOT messing with the wp7 partition, then I can get rid of those safeguards.

in the interim, i was looking for a way to auto detect where that stupid wp7 partition is, and place blocks in my code from touching it.

you dig?

i guess i just need to keep hearing from magldr users that our build and wp7 is peacefully co-existing .. ;)
