Now, if you said you were using Magldr in the first place, I could have told you it wouldn't work...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16313526&postcount=14506

Edit; You don't have a build.prop in android\root\sytem do you, by any chance? This would keep overriding your root explorer changes.
[HD2 Android SD Development] alphaandomega:
I see, thank you.

But doesn't this post imply that it's for NAND Magldr users? I still use the SD build, I only start it through Magldr...
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
My post refers to SD Magldr users...

check out the edit in my previous post
[HD2 Android SD Development] alphaandomega:
I mean, the MAGLDR folder does not include the ROOT folder anymore either, right? So, wouldn't that mean that we're supposed to use startup.txt to do what ROOT used to do for us?
[HD2 Android SD Development] alphaandomega:
HAHA! :D You just solved my problem!! I do have it! Do I delete the thing?
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
It was supposed to work, but you can prove that it doesn't, hence my post on the subject.

Now, have you looked at android\root\system to see if there is an old build.prop lurking in there. If so delete it and you will be able to make your edits with root explorer. Bear in mind you will still be using the old build.prop, though.
[HD2 Android SD Development] al-rezan:
I don't know how I do this :eek::eek:
[HD2 Android SD Development] satan!:
everything is described in first post

before starting, startup.txt edit and specify their values

lcd_density=167

ask what you want

for example

lcd_density=240

Big thanks, Uzi2! This Root Explorer thing was driving me crazy! I change it the way I want it - then BAM - it's back to its old ways! :D Tip my hat off to you for your patience.

I want to use my 8GB SD card instead of the 2GB I'm using now. The 2GB has a fat32(1.3GB) and ext4(~500mb). I want to upgrade to the aug01 build without losing my data. I'm asking this because some builds with partition support store the data on the ext partitions instead of data.img. If this uses data.img then my question was stupid :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
You're welcome. Have you tried changing the density now in startup.txt? Is this working with the latest build in SD Magldr?

The root folder would probably have overridden this as well, so it would be wrong to assume that it is still not working this way.
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
You can only copy the ext partition in linux as windows cannot see it. If you are using the SD build with ext4 for bkup2sdext then don't worry about the content as it will be restored from the build.

So, just partition the card in a similar way you did for the smaller one. Copy the contents from the FAT partition to the new card and you're done.

Remember that bkup2sdext is disabled by default in the latest builds.

Yes the SD build uses data.img

[HD2 Android SD Development] zwat:
damn this was hard. the build.prop stuff is all new to me. i have edited the file in\240buildprop\root\system folder and rebooted with no changes. so should it still be in that folder or do i have to move it elsewhere or change other files to make it work? i'm trying to change the way the phone identify itself on the net.
[HD2 Android SD Development] satan!:
nand to use the old build.prop, you can use to haret build.prop or edit startup.txt
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
If you have updated to the latest build, you should delete the 240buildprop folder as it will contain an old version.

Please also delete root folder if you have one.

To change the screen density you should now edit startup.txt

My guess is that you are using Magldr to boot your SD build.

Please read the last 2-3 pages and you will find your answers.

If you were to translate the English back into your own language, you would see why we cannot help you...

Whatever you are using to translate is not helping here.

What were you trying to change? Why can't you just follow the instructions in post #1 and pay some attention to the help people are trying to give you?
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
I can only guess, especially that google search for El Jadida Aldata returns quite funny results, assuming it is data.img - do you mean your build does not start with an old data.img? if so check the posts from the last two days, hints on backup and restore with fresh data.img are there

Missing apps in builtin Battery Usage

For the kernel creator:

On ACA we are missing all apps in the Built-in Battery Usage. Only system info like Idle, Cell and Android-system are shown.

A Cyanogen post believes it has something to do with the kernel:

That could explain why other Android builds has apps battery usage showing.

[HD2 Android SD Development] kdelisle:
Hi all, regarding battery life (sorry cope)... for SD users.

I tried a bunch of stuff at once and my phone nearly ground to a halt AND my battery was chewed up in front of my eyes. So, I uninstalled screebl - that made a noticable performance difference. I installed 8/1 with a fresh image and was selective in which programs I reinstalled with titanium. I noticed a weird consistent draw - unhappily close to the phantom 60 mA ...

Can anyone recommend a program which can identify with clarity which programs and/or functions are responsible for draws (and when)? I use current widget, but it just gives a giant list of programs which are active. If I'm doing this wrong, can someone give some guidance?

Cope - I kept juice defender... jury is out on ultimate performance...

Thanks all. ~kris
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
You could try Watchdog. It gives an alert if an app is drawing more battery than expected and allows you to kill apps individually in order to isolate a potential culprit.

lcd_density fix

Here is UNTESTED lcd_density fix for magldr user. I don't use magldr, so please could someone test it?

Replace original code at the end of init script.

It could even work for nand users, if they have on their sdcard directory Android and file startup.txt in it, just an idea to have something to think of :)

No guarantees, dragons ahead!

LCD_DENSITY=-1
if ( grep "lcd_density=" /proc/cmdline > /dev/null ); then
LCD_DENSITY=`awk 'BEGIN { FS = "lcd_density=" } ; /lcd_density/ {print $2;}' /proc/cmdline | awk '{print $1;}'`;

[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
besides watchdog, there's also Power Tutor and Better Battery Stats, the latter useful esp. for checking on battery drain in standby

Autorun Manager is a nice app, which instead of killing processes (like most of taskkillers do), allows you to stop them from starting in specified circumstances (by selectively disabling startup triggers/events)

PS. forgot to mention Wi-Fi TX Power, which supposedly (can't get around to check if and how much it saves) reduces Wi-Fi battery usage

I'm sorry if I'm being ignorant here but I've tried looking through as many posts as I can. Is there an issue with the Market or is it just me?

Dear cop and aca users,

I have some may be atupid question:

1. NAND build have more RAM than SD build? (No need RAM for WM6.5 run in background). Is it right?

2. The "SD speed booster" program is have really power with ACA build?

3. For a long time i'm not test movie im fullHD 1080p on my phone, today i play 02 movies 1080p with Mobo Player and i see slow but more better than some early version in April. :) that mean we can improve multimedia in HD2?

4. The game Need for speed run ok, but Assasin Creed run slow...

5. I already saw the Chmod 777 command for enable Cache of new Market, pls cope attach new market or insert this command when startup ACA?

6. Now the time for start ACA arround 7-9 minutes? But i saw in early versions at Feb, ACA start very fast.

7. For many ACA builds, when system have some programs in background. Use new camera cause freeze and restart.

8. In Cyanogen Mod Sttings/ Performance... i can see the WM heap size set to 48Mb? What is the heap size, if more powerful, we can increse it to 128mb for example.?

9. In set cpu, should we can set biiger than 1gHz? It can make our phone to the brick?

Thanks and regards,

Stuck at dancing robot

Hi all,

Thanks to Cope, Warren, et al for a tremendous piece of work. It took me years to ditch WM, but it feels good now.

I've gone through numerous updates with the only problem ever being the dreaded 'data drop'. I'm using the SD version and a new data image with 080411. I started getting non-responsive hard buttons while placing a call, towards the end of the day (just updated this AM). It took about 20 seconds for each input to get a response. Had a couple of FC from the android.phone program, too. The other oddity is that the microphone for 'voice typing' on swype and google search doesn't hear anything. I powered off and back on to find it stuck at the Robot sequence. He flies around in the CanAm colors, starts the spinning and 32 seconds later goes back to flying around again. At least he's having fun...

Any ideas?

Thank you,

OZ

[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
not really sure this is a kernel issue as the kernel hasnt changed in a way that would cause this to happen.

(for talking like he knows all about the root of the problem, that cm staffer only proves that he doesnt really know anything about it.. other then.. he thinks its kernel related)

maybe warren can add something about this.

My suggestion in the meantime: what has changed recently is the android 2.3.4 to 2.3.5 --

we already know we lost some features such as local's ie: RTL etc.. it is very much possible that other things were also taken out to facilitate the update to 2.3.5 -- as this is completely a cm thing.. only time will tell.

thanks for the heads up.. its something I can keep my eyes open for :)

4th August Sd build is not treating me well. It keeps on losing the data connection and the battery drain is very erratic where it dances between 5 and over 100mA. 1st August did not have this behaviour and I have not changed a thing between the 2 builds. I have calibrated the batt and the usual tweaks after build update but I am yet to see good results :confused: With WP7/Magldr.....

Edit>>>> Guess I had jumped into conclusions too soon. Rom has now settled after a few reboots and battery drain is now much better and consistent. Data problems might be down to problems with my service provider..... :p

HD2 SD (or NAND-I guess) ACA - Android Market Access

This is just a quick follow-up to my earlier post here...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16309139&postcount=14493

I have complete market access from my desktop PC or HD2 SD ACA (android)... because there's no indication from my phone that it's anything but an Android device. No mention of LEO or HD2, anywhere. The view from my PC is always...

I did this by using ES File Explorer (Rooted, and File System Mounted - in the settings menu). You would need to edit the build.prop file in the System directory. Don't forget to SAVE your changes. Don't forget to unmount the filesystem before you close the program.

If you upgrade your ACA build (when there's a new burger intro'ed) you'll probably have to redo this procedure again, as I did, (unless there's another way around it). Anyway... this has worked great for me. So for anyone having trouble with Android market access or who missed my earlier post... I thought I'd re-iterate and post some screenshots so you can see. -Rob

Music Sound Quality Issue

Hi,

ive got an issue. The music quality over my headset or speaker (via the 3.5mm Jack) is garbled. As in, the bass, treble n everything becomes distorted once volume reaches about 3/4 or more. Before this, there were no problems at all. Bass n everything were not distorted at all, during max volume.This problem just suddenly came up halfway through, when i was using the 22nd July build. I upgraded to the 01st Aug build, but the distortion still remains. Ive tried both PowerAmp and the standard music player,but the distortion is the same. Its like as if the sound capability and performance over the audio jack just decreased by a lot. May i kindly know what could be causing this?.Thanks

I did so and only put the 080411 folder on it then rebooted. No problem! Then when I went to restore with Titanium I got a 'no root' message. So I copied the 072411 root folder on and it worked. But even though I copied over my old titanium folder, none of the apps were recognized - and I see then in the folder.

I'm also getting a ton of FCs for Google processes and the market won't work for me to restore the apps Titanium lost.
