I love the last build (04/27/11) - data connection is verry stable - (if lost G3 data connection, it is verry quick reconnect) - GPS working fine, no problem with BT.

Now I only serach only a fix for my FC problem with Settings/Display - any idea where can I start to look for - a reinstall and reconfig all my applications is a lot of work ;-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
Searching for fix permissions should do it for you.

You may also want to read the thread from the 27/4 update and keep your eye out for burgers ;)

That way you will find the latest update (28/4)

Update on wrapper testing.

Been running with it for about 15 hours - seems to be an improvement. So far no data drops or freezes. In my house I have marginal 3g/H and it switches from H to E very frequently. In the past when it would do the switch it would go grey and generally drop the connection. Transition from E to H in other areas would do the same.

Things in recent build have improved to the point you would just wait about 10 seconds and it would reconnect. Seems in this version of the wrapper - the swithes and connections are seemless.

So far its an improvement - will have to wait until Monday when I frequent the same spots to get an accurate test.

freeze on shutdown/reboot

hi, first of all thanks for this amazing build i was loosing interest in my HD2 when a friend told me about running android from sdcard and i tried your build (i think it was feb 22 build) and since then am using it without any problem

am even still using same data file since then and no problem updating

until i tested the last 2 builds am having problem when i shutdown or reboot its freezing

now am using last build (27 apr) everything working fine

just when i shutdown or reboot the phone freeze and it keep showing me rebooting... for hours until i remove the battery

i tried using new data image just to see if thats the problem but i got same result

i have sd card 16 GB with sd-ext partition and swap

any one having same problem or any one know how to fix it?

Data Drops are gone .....but I noticed something

Now it is impossible to switch off mobile data using APN Pro or Quick Settings. The data gets disconnected and almost instantaneously is reconnected again.

The only way to switch it off (for me it is due to hefty roaming fees) is to use Tech Code on Dial Pad:

*#*#4636#*#*

and turn it off manually.

BUILD 4/28 Status

I am in the US and i have been using the 4/28 build since last night. I still get the occasional data drop. I am using an data.img from build 4/27

I have not experienced any other issues. the way i am testing the data connnection is streaming audio via Pandora.
[HD2 Android SD Development] asmd6230:
i can confirm this. :)

had to restart connections only twice since the new ril wrapper.
[HD2 Android SD Development] 420soljah808:
i didnt do anything with my hd2 except a couple of text messages the rest of the time it was on stand by draining about 7% an hour, when i was on 4/23 i would only get 2% drain an hour with downloading apps and music ,phone n text etc. i only installed setcpu, watchdog, and dr web so ya any advice thanks again
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
It sounds like an issue with backup2sdext or your sd-ext partition. Make sure you have a backup first and then delete your Sd-ext partition. While you're at it, it's a good idea to do a diskcheck of the FAT partition. Reboot and once you are happy, then reinstall the sd-ext partition if you want to use backup2sdext in the future.

The manual solution is in the FAQ, but Cope did advise of an app to this several pages back - search for BatteryCalibration in the market or this thread.

good morning

I think.. we are back in business this morning...

(we have been stopped dead still since thursday @ 12:03 am)

some updates were push through on cyanogen's side that broke our shiz.

however.... as mentioned it looks like this morning... we are getting somewhere.

whats does all this mean to you.

android 2.3.4 and massive amounts of cyanogen updates fromapril 28 to may 1st.

(I think this has been almost the longest period between updates we've gone since we released ACA. .... pfewww... was just about out of hair to 'stress' lose.)

keep your eyes on this right here for progress updates.

warren sent me a present last night...

well not me per say.. but all of u that were looking to do a little oc'ing ;)

(The ACA team, warrenb213, and copenhagen do not support the use of OC'ing in any way shape or form. like the performance warning cyanogen gives out... "there be dragons ahead" - and if you want to take them on... you do it on your terms. its your sword and shield at risk and we'll have none of it fall back on us)

[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
That's what we want to hear... :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Tubgirl:
About extended battery in AmericanAndroid... I'm happy that it works at all so I haven't mentioned this before. The case it that it reports too much drain and when the battery is almost drained you can turn off the phone... remove the battery for a couple of seconds and when you restart the phone you'll be up at 90% again. It's been like this for several months so it's not related to the new kernel.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ben.marks:
hey cope,

How does that work tho? you can only clock it too 998MHz which is stock isnt it? or is this a prior warning for an update that supports oc'ing? :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
I've never had problems with the 240build.prop file the devs offer in their build.

But it doesn't seem to work for some people. I was a little puzzled by that but out of the descriptions some of these people posted on how they did it, I couldn't find any fault.

That is until cope mentioned something that doesn't apply to me but might to others and in that might very well be the reason it doesn't work for them.

I've been using this build for a long time and I know, that the screen density is lower than the usual 240. I also know that I don't like that lower screen density and that I want the 240. That's why I put the root folder in my Android folder right before I boot up a new build for the first time.

New users, that don't know about this and find that they don't like the different screen density however, usually post something like:"everything is so small, something is wrong with this build, what can I do?"

They then get pointed in the right direction.

But since they already use Android, they copy the root folder into the Android folder, out of Android, or using their PC, still with Android running.

They then reboot and what happens next is, that the changes don't work. It's a security meassure. Without it, each time you reboot your phone, your build.prop file would be overwritten, if you don't take out the root folder out of the Android folder again.

So in a nutshell:

You have to copy the root folder into your Android folder out of winmo, never do that from a running Android. Or even better, do it before the very first bootup.

I don't know about magldr users. It will definitley work if you put it in before first boot, but I don't know how they can use that file after the first boot, since they don't have winmo to do it out of.

But this screen density thing has been a hugely annyoing thing forever now. And it won't change. No matter how often we post instructions, no matter how prominent it's put up in the first post and of course the FAQ.

Some people just don't get it.

So again, a waste of time for me, writing this and the people reading it.

I don't play betting games but it would be a sure thing to say, that this will come up at least once again in the next couple of pages. Sigh.
[HD2 Android SD Development] antaed:
Hi guys

This is my first time with ACA and I just want you to know I'm loving it already.

Definetely the best SD ROM I've ever tried - a keeper!

Thanks and keep up the great work.

I'm just gonna make an LCD density app for 99 cents and give it everyone who asks that inane question again. Shoulda done that long time ago heh...
[HD2 Android SD Development] iPAQ 6515a User:
Right on !!!! :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
Great news everyone!

first post has been updated ;)

(as always.. warren was a major reason for the update so soon.. it would have taken me days to accomplish what we (he) do together. :))

thanks brother.
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
MMMMmmmm I'm going to get right now. Cant wait. Fantastic
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
It maybe better to make the default 240 so that only those who know what they're doing can change it, but this is dumbing down the build so I'm not fully behind it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
yah.. theres only so... down we can go....

it could be worse and there be no 240file included...

then they would really have to learn something ;)

nope. remember when i +1'd the font size of the first post.

remember how I said +1 to the people. and that some day I would get it back? ;)

well i choose to use it now. -1 people. +1 cope. mewuuhahah

think about it like this.

if you can open and edit a text file.. you can change the lcd settings manually in android. if you can't do this... it has been pre-done for you and all you need to know is how to copy.. if you cant do that cope will come to your house and do it for you, but you pay the flight and a nice fee of $120 us.

sound crazy? yup it is.. but thats how easy it is. ;)

EDIT okay.. well that is stress from thursday 12amto sun 10am over and done with. haha the world ends when the build wont compile.. hahah. NOW... since the psn is down, its time to spend some time cappin some baddies in singleplayer mode. bf2 almost finished.

ill be here.. but takin a break for a bit ;)

enjoy the build.

[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:

Neither of them mention the benefits for HD2 :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
and niether of them ever will

as cyanogen doesnt officially develop for the hd2 ;)

(besides.. regarding video chat on the hd2.. how you gonna video chat w/o a front facing camera anyway. lol... carry aroudn a mirror all day i guess.)

we are extreamly fortunate to have things as early as we do...

most times long before of the "offically" supported phones get theirs ;)

for us.. think 2.3.4 = speed & cm improvements.

aparently gmaps got or is getting an update also
[HD2 Android SD Development] biosensorben:
This build works lovely, this is now sooooo fast - you've done miracles again! No problems so far.

Thanks again. You guys rock!
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
Well i can confirm, 05-01, so far so good. GPS works, Data works, wifi works. Still very early days though. Anyone else got it going yet ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
Oh yeah, thats on a completely fresh install.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
I came from like the 040711 build, but I noticed one thing different, ONE MAJOR THING. I can't access the SD Card through USB Connection.

Can anyone confirm this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
can anyone else confirm that when they shut down n start up again that they have to turn wifi off and then back on to get it to work ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
I feel it important to mention that 99% of the credit for this work should be given

to charansign, the cm team, google, and all the excellent people who have, are currently, and will work on android and all its related projects. credit to cedesmith for the working ril wrapper and letamma for the original implementation... Credit to warren for the amazing work on the kernel, credit to hastarin for starting it. credit to shub for starting the love.. credit to lots and lots of people.... spread the love! hehe

but i want to thank all of you for your amazing support. without you... this would not be rewarding for us. thankyou!
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
yes. does this from time to time... donno why
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
Yes, When i plug in via USB to my computer, nothing happen appart from charging of my device. Not a major prob for me. Use Dropbox, or take ya mem card out n slip it in ya computer
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
dammit

so vold isnt working..i have a fix for that... since adb connected fine i thought it was working....

ill post the fixed file and pull dl links.. dam dam..

good find
[HD2 Android SD Development] otaku888:
I also have to toggle wifi on and off to get a connection since using cedee smiths new ril_wrapper.

And in the new 050111 build also.

Don't really care though as it's as smooth as butter! Oh yeah.
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
Thats cool, Its no prob, only a tiny thing anyway, just wanted to highlight it slightly for your knowledge
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
Yea true, there are alternatives. I just use the USB Connection that comes with the build, it's a preference for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] otaku888:
What is the tcp throughput fix by the way?
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
something i stole from another device. ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
was a blessing in disquise...

as during the rebuild to add the vold fix...

warren has got me adding in the voice/video chat app ;)

for Android 2.3.4 ;) and we tested the voice chat works ;)

uploading right away
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
Wow, nice work. I'm impressed with this.

So basically, the only thing new about 2.3.4 is the google video/voice chat app?
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
Are you adding it to the build and re uploading it or just giving us the file ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Imperator Nick:
And standard bugfixes and speedboosts on the side. Looking forward to the updated build guys!
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
I always wondered why they didn't put in a front facing camera in a 500+€ Smartphone, when Nokia put one into most of their phones that cost 200+€ and had done so for quite some time.

Only the most recent Smartphones come equipped with a front facing cam.

Not that I would use this feature a lot but I still don't get, why they would leave that out.

But it would still be nice, if we could use the back cam for video chat. Maybe it's not of much use for a actual chat but you could use it to show other people things in real time, that you otherwise would have to show them by sending a photo.

When Apple came up with their iPhone4 and Facetime, there was a nice introduction video, where they showed off some of the possibilities of video chats on a smartphone.

With the iPhone you can use both cameras, front and back. The front one has a rather poor quality but it's OK for face to face chat. But when you want a high res picture, you just switch to the back cam.

In their video they used the example of a young family chating, using the front cam for the actual chat and the back cam to show their kids playing to the one they were chating with.

Nice idea.

You could also use it to show mechanical problems or whatever to someone you know can help you if he sees what actually is happening.

Things like that.
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
okay.

build fixed.

usb to pc should now work again

via precompiled vold fix from danielj (i believe.. its been a long time since we introduced it into the build.. (im making sure we cover everything since this build is sweet a$$)

also introduced

the new google Talk that has voice and video chat capabilities.

:)

enjoy

first post updated.

(was going to release just the files .. but its to complicated for the average user with permissions etc.. just dl the build again.. sorry I know.. but like I said.. blessing in disguise)
[HD2 Android SD Development] chemass:
Woooooohoooooo!!!!

Absolutely frickin awesome!

I was wondering how long until 2.3.4 would be available - REALLY didn't expect it this quickly!!:D

Kudos to Warren for adding the OC options - I know you guys don't approve, but I most certainly do!:D

I'm off to butlins till friday (kids love it!) so this'll be my build until then!:cool:

Oh, and Cope.... Credit to Copenhagen for bringing it all together in one of the top builds out there!

Good work and thanks to all of you!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
im sure there is more.. i dont think they would give a whole new revision number for just one updated app.

;) good project for someone.. find us the changelog 233 to 234 :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] robdee102:
Oh, I've just nearly finished configuring my device, and i'm cosidering wiping it again, just for these 2 updates, im not too bothered bout the usb to computer, infact i'll prob just wait till the next build (i'm sure it wont be far away). is the new google talk worth havin ? i guess to do the chat, the recipiant has to have it installed also, and is the ui any different ? would that just be an apk file i could have ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] ben.marks:
:D hahaa, i do tooo! thanks warren, much appreciated!!

[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
hmm okay so our current vold fix isnt working... sigh

this means that the build was betterwithout the vold fix.. at least it showed a mem card beinginstalled.

this one.. will be a one file fix

ill re-implement the default vold file for new downloads

and post the file that will at least show your the installed sdcard.

so.. last remaining issue is usb to pc.

but adb works so learn how to use that in the mean time ;)

did u do a totally fresh install ? what i do is pop my mem card in the computer n copy everything from the mem card to a folder on the computer, then i put the mem card back in phone n boot to windows mobile, then use the format mem card utility, then shutdown phone, pop the mem card back in the computer n copy the new Android build folder to the mem card. wack it back in phone, boot to windows then, file explorer, android, n install as usual. No probs here if u use that route, dont use your old data image. I use an app called 'share my apps' and i email myself the list then install all my apps, n then configure everything else. I would recomend launcher pro. if configured right, its blazingly fast and i dont get any lag what so ever. hope this helps.

EDIT: I am using my old data.img, not sure if that would have made any difference though since as cope mentioned, it seems to be the vold fix causing the problem with the sd card
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
okay

unzip

copy file to

/system/bin/ HERE

and reboot.

this will not make usb to pc work.. it will just fix the sdcard not showing....

we gotta make some changes in the code to get usb to pc working...

we are on it...

users who dl the buildafter the timestamp on this post dont have to worry its been put into the build... (the sdcard showing fix. not the usbtopc)
