Well, I am sure it is not the ROM. It is a bad install, either caused by the zip file (ROM) being damaged during download, or, more likely, the previous build left its traces somhow.

This us what you can do in just half an hour.

1. format SD card. If you have ext 3/4 partition, format that one, too. Both steps can be performed from CWM.

2. Perform task 29.

3. Install magldr 1.13

4. Install CWM, with a proper partition

5. Transfer ROM zip file to sd

6. once on sd, check md5 of the zip file!!!

7. install ROM

8. reboot

9. make sure data connection is on

10. Get GPS status from market

11. Run it, I can guarantee gps lock, on good position, in 2 min max

Some of these steps are an overkill, for sure (task 29). But this is a good way to get rid of all of the problems you have now.

Moreover, you will reduce battery drain.

This is what I have done today :-)

EDIT: steps 5 and 6 I have performed through CWM. Do not skip step 6!

If all of this does not work, you can restore your current build state through CWM in just 5 min.

i failed to respond? then i'll respond now.

so, i don't have my phone (im pretty sure everyone in xda knows this by now), so i can't personally test it. Everyone reports that gps works flawlessly. What more do you want? Cookies?

There, i responded.

When I broke mine, dropped it on the screen, complete smash. They gave me a new one :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tone602:
My gps works fine. First time use it took 4 minutes to lock on. Then I installed GPS STAUTUS and GPS Fix from market. I let GPS fix lock on first time around and it took about 3 minutes. Next I ran GPS status and let that lock. Then I hit tools, recalibrated pitch/roll and also clear/download conf. After all this my GPS takes only 15-30 seconds to lock on.

Btw I'm in south FL

titanium backup

Hi, guys!

Thanks CC for this ROM, it's perfect. But I've founded out a serious shortage for my POV...

I use "Titanium backup" for saving of apps and user data usually (with checkbox ‘migrate system data’). And it works perfect on all builds I’ve ever tried. But when I tried to restore backups created on UD3.0.1 I founded out that most part of user data is not restore.

Do You have any suggestions..?

Thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dellacorte:
did you restore them from another build ? if so maybe cause this build is ram but not sure about them

if i restore them on this build works flawless but my backup was made on this build aswell
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gridan:
It works usually between diffs ROM. For instance between CleanDroid-Hyperdroid (in both directions), Clean-MDJ's CyanogenMod 7.

Titanium backup doesn't work on UD->Clean, UD-Hyperdroid. I've tested this.

I didn't test UD->UD. And guess it will works fine.

M.b. problem is a folders structure... In others ROMs apps are stored in system\app and in UD in system\ram\app.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dellacorte:
thats what i meant to say but my brain was some where els:o
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gridan:
but... I remember, that secessfully restored apps+settings from Clean->UD... thats strange...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elitishtc:
Gps works PERFECT now, did everything as supposed to. No Rom problem. I had problem but MD5 was wrong(??). What you need has already posted.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dellacorte:
could you tell me how i can check MD5
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gshadow325:
are these still people out there that use this rom still?

I just went back to this rom after yesterday.

I used typhoon 3.5.7 and boypcc with my wife using this rom.

we both were using it the same amount. i went thru two complete batteries and she was at 25% at the end of the day.

Getting back into this rom:

Question i have for people still using it. Did you update to the latest tytung 10? and the newest gps libs2.0?

if you said yes to any of the above, please share your experiences. good or bad.

thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] creepinm3:
I am using this but not using tytung R10 using Rafpinga 2.0 GB and the 2.0 gps libs. Didn't charge my phone last night and its still going strong even included the RIL tweaks for HD2
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BearZ:
I tried this but I keep getting an error message, and the file won't open
[HD2 Android NAND Development] GurWu:
What program did you use to browse to the file?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gshadow325:
use root explorer and goto the file and long key press on the file and goto open as text editor. and do as the post said to do.

real easy, i did a friends HD2 yesterday and took one reboot and all is well. It does work, you doing something wrong.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Zombie_Nerd:
I've tried it too. With both es file explorer (wont open file) and with Astro file manager (opens but can not save edited file).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] djwurm:
Same here says file not found when using es file explorer
[HD2 Android NAND Development] GurWu:
If you are using ES Explorer, you need to first go into the program's settings and check the Root Explorer option (third item from the bottom). With that setting checked, you will now be able to browse to the 20userinit file.

Ultimate Droid

The best Android Rom on this site, no doubt about it. Been running for months now with no problems at all and its super fast, love it!

Any plans for a new rom? :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elitishtc:
Yes, best Rom ever tried.

I left once but I returned couple days later..

Very sad for no update but the good news are that I am very pleased to enjoy my phone rather to be Rom-addicted.

Hey guys, I have a bit of a question...

I have a previous version of this ROM (3.1.1) and it works great. I have the latest version of MAGLDR (1.13). Do I need anything else to load the new version of this ROM?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] xupthree60:
Anyone else having problems with the new market 3.0.27? Mine keeps force closing. Usually as soon as I open it but every once on a while it will let me search and browse but fc as soon as I accept permissions to download something. Needless to say its unusable.

I tried fcing and clearing cash, Restarting, downloading the apk and reinstalling. Nothing helps

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Pavilion75:
I've had the Root Explorer option and I still get an error anyways. Also cant download the Astro one because of the market crashing all the time.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elcanela:
Hello. I have had the issue with my wife's phone. The ROM itself is the best shes ever tried, and these are her words, not mine. Anyway, I tried it with ES File explorer, copied the file over to sdcard, modified it, then placed back into the /etc/init.d folder. REBOOT AND YOURE GOOD.

If you cant download from the market because it keeps crashing...

1. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>"All" tab

2. Scroll down to Market

3. Force Stop

4. Clear Cache

5. Clear Data

6. Uninstall updates

*Now, go to your market ( youll notice that the market icon is older style now)

It will ask you to accept the Terms of Service blah blah blah...

*Mine seemed to open upon acceptance, then close itself down.

*Go right back to market app and open again. You should still have the older style market.

*Download and install ES File explorer

*Go to Setttings. Scroll down to "Root settings"

*Check box

*Also check Mount system as R/W

*Accept SU prompt

*The top left icon has a memory card, click that. it should now change to a house icon.

* navigate to etc>init.d

*locate "20userinit"

*touch & hold and select "copy" operation

* select House icon on top left corner

*hit menu, and select operation "paste"

* Edit file with a text editor, or with notepad on computer; add:

su

chmod 777 cache

to bottom of file text

*Open up ES file explorer

*Go to Setttings. Scroll down to "Root settings"

*Check Mount system as R/W

*Navigate to 20userinit on sdcard (MODIFIED ONE)

*Touch & hold and select copy

*Touch the memory card icon, it should change to the house icon

*Navigate to etc/init.d

* Hit menu, and operations, select paste

*Reboot & enjoy

COOL !!!!

You will update ? or forget it ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Spl4tt:
lets just forget it. it was awsome, but the maker of UD seems to be away, so why update this one

i changed to hyperdroid now for good. they started to update it again

Could someone please tell me some pros of updates or recent releases? Because I am pretty satisfied.. why should I jump to other ROM??

[HD2 Android NAND Development] gshadow325:
cant, i have 3 HD2s in the house.

Daily driver

1 has this rom since april...wife's phone. she is not a addict like me.

and

test phones

1 has MIUI, [17 SEP 11]PATs JW MIUI Sense like 1.9.16 ML & Stable 2.3.5a [TytR12][MAG/cLK]

and one has been following

[22.SEP.11][MAG/cLK] TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 Nightly v3.6.5 [2.3.5][A2SD][tytung r12]

for a while.

this rom besides updating the kernel (which my wifes phone still is on old kernel) has been pretty flawless. only thing i did was update the market in the last 5 months.

MIUI has alot to offer, CM7 is basically the same as UD. i dont use this rom because i cant stand the reception issues and GPS lock takes 10 seconds longer than the other roms LOL.

Starting this weekend my love for MIUI based roms is starting to grow, i came from loving sense roms and then saw that UD/CM7 roms were laster smoother more customizable and never looked back. although i did go and flash a few desire hd based roms, pyramid, ect ect and still came back to this one as a backup. This rom is a good one, shame OP never came back to update it. i think if he did the phone would make calls by telepathy by now :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tanzemyu:
anyone have problems (FC) with new market? I cant use new market and cant roll back to old.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] aled99:
I had the same problem. In the end I've reverted to the old market and it seems to be ok.

I uninstalled updates to the market (from settings/applications) then deleted marketupdater.apk from /system/app and then rebooted.

Is this what you've tried?

I found that it was hard to get the market to stay as the old version, and it kept going to the new version then force closing. But after a few attempts it seems to be staying with the old version, which works fine.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gshadow325:
go back a few pages and find the fix
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tanzemyu:
i just added with ES (root exp. enabled, mount f. system as writable):

Are there any newer ultimate Droid rom versions anywhere else for the HD2 made by other chefs. I heard ultimate Droid is kind of like CM7. Are they still making updates?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atoore:
Nope. Not anymore. The main head dev stopped the project and pulled out all the sources... :(

I miss crawlingcity :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clyder:
Me too..He is a great dev...Ultimate Droid was one of the most solid roms outthere.

I also liked that UD wasn't updated every day, but when it did it worked great.

After all this time I am still subscribed to this thread... :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mexicandroid:
Wow, that really sucks, I wish he would let somebody continue this great work. I had it since yesterday and pretty damn smooth. Maybe since the rom is so good he doesn't want somebody to mess up the image and name of Ultimate Droid. Sucks for people like me that just get a taste. I like the customizing options allot, kind of like MIUI. Oh well back to Hard Droid but I'll keep checking in case he decides to come back.

By the way is there a specific reason why he abandoned the rom?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] atoore:
Yea. His whole city (Memphis) got flooded that's why. the version on this thread was the last build blackdroid released. Its not up to crawlingcity...he would've been updating it everytime if blackdroid was still around...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clyder:
That is what I understood also....

But too bad that crawling havent continued to maintain his own rom...He could do magic with CM7.... Probably wanted to take a break from it.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mexicandroid:
Hey Crawlingcity if you are reading this, are you planning to make a new rom for the HD2 or you have moved on permanently?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Spl4tt:
it is sad. UD had many problems, but always was the best rom.

i hope blackdroid knows how much we miss it >.<

hey guys wondering if you can shine some light on this problem I am having.

So when i receive MMS pictures its fine (its big and clear), but when i receive a slideshow of mms pictures, the pictures get resized to the size of a thumbnail.

Anyone know why that is?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] julljus:
To bad its not contiuning.

Big THANKS for developer!

I have one q. I use this rom daily. When new market came i got FC error when i download any stuff.

I uninstalled New market and renamed market updater.

Is there workaround for New market?

I use HD2 512mb Euro.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elitishtc:
Haven't found anything and I tried almost everything. The best I can do with the new market 3.4.4 is to uninstall apps,not update & install.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gwbard:
via ADB or Terminal:

chmod 777 /cache

might help (you'll need to do this after every reboot)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elitishtc:
Thanks but did nothing
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gwbard:
Sorry, thought it was worth a shot... (does the trick on newer ROMs)

I haven't used this ROM in a very very long time. I know this ROM was superb (back then), but perhaps it's time to move on to something newer?

Give Hyperdroid a try, it's quite good.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elitishtc:
Hello

I tried some roms but a couple of days later I come back.

Lately I tried dorimanx, it was very good but not battery stable.

I will give a shot to hyberdroid, thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dimdimdim:
Guys, just go with root explorer to system/app/ and run vending.apk in order to reinstall manually your market.

Then it works well till next fc appears (not so often). Repeat the procedure if it does.

Me too here again after lots of roms developed since April...but ultimate still the best for me: fast like hell, no sufficient bugs, and equipped with go launcher + all the go widgets + go locker I have same (sometimes even better) experience, which sense 3.5 gives. But in addition I have here 250 MB of free ram with 7 pages of full screen widgets, no lags...

:) I do not visit xda anymore more then once per week now
[HD2 Android NAND Development] elitishtc:
Market 3.4.4 ?? Works that way??

I removed market updater and I have installed the old 2.3.3

Anyway is not a big deal though.

Imagine what the UD would be by now if was not discontinued...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dimdimdim:
I don't care about market version, sorry:)

Suppose, you're right, this is about older version.

I didn't remove market updater, it works without that and doesn't update market...or, maybe, you are right, it updates market automatically and fc after that and then I reinstall market manually from system/app
[HD2 Android NAND Development] julljus:
Is the new market aka Google Play working on this rom?

Anyone?

I don't know about the link but I still have the zip file (ver 3.3 Zip for cwm) in my old hd2. I checked the md5 and it matches the one in the first page of this thread

I can upload it if that will help.. Let me know

Hello,

Been a while since i used this rom. It was always blazing fast and very stable so i decided to come back and flash a newer kernel on it. I must say the results are amazing. It is unbelievable fast with the new Dorimanx kernel!!

Everything is working well but i've got one huge bug: Google Play isn't working. I tried everything i could but it always gives me a force close when i want to install apps. Anyone knows how to fix it?!

Thanks in advance.

Greetings,,

Arjan
[HD2 Android NAND Development] prabupandian:
If you haven't tried this from an earlier post...

you need to set the /cache folder permissions to 777.

To do this:

Use a file explorer that can browser root directory (like Root Explorer or ES Explorer with Root Explorer enabled) and go to /etc/init.d.

Open the file 20userinit with a text editor.

Add the following two lines to the bottom of the file:

su

chmod 777 cache

Save and close the file then restart the phone.

I haven't tried this with the recent google play but it worked on my HD2 when I was using it with the prior market updates..

If it workes, you can hit my thank button..Good Luck

I may be completely dumb here, so I appreciate your answer.

With kind regards
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dellacorte:
A lot of problems like high battery drain comes with a corrupted md5 file.

on the first post there is a md5 checksum number how it should be.

The zip file you downloaded got also one if you compare them and it is the same good. If not and you flash it could cause some problems

This is by far the best stable ROM I have had. I've tried almost all the GB roms. lastly I used to have Hyperdroid. I'm not going to change to different ROM anytime soon. This ROM has almost all the settings from CM7 that I need, scrollable widgets in the notification menu, and so on.

I have only couple of problems, one being Navigon Select doesn't work which I know is not working in GB 2.3.2. Other is the Camera picture quality is not great compared to Sense builds, or even Froyo builds.

other than that, Great job cc! we're glad that you got your phone :)

Thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] deerkiller:
You have to be ****ting us about the picture quality right? Because this build has one of the best when it comes to that along with HyperDroid 7 that just came out with a new camera pack. I hope That this one will update to it to on the next update.

Could you please have another look on camcorder on high settings, cuz it renders too slow and hangs most of the time (using class 6 sd card), video was about 5 minutes and it rendered ~10mins and eventually never stopped rendering it :P (and i also couldnt recover video stream from a half-broken file) By the way why this format is m4v? I thought its apple's format?

And yes, a2sd cachesd bootloop is caused by some soud service, Clyder on UD forums provided helpful (in my opinion:)) log which indicates where the bootloop takes place\
