Reporting...

Formatted all partitions and installed 04222011 (1P.M version) with a fresh data.img. Reporting what I have on my end:

- Cannot save APN - Resolve: delete ext3 partition, save APN

- Still could not connect to hidden SSID (No biggie! Warren said he is working on it anyway. Thanks!)

- Have "Wifi Tether" (yellow) and "Wireless Tether" (red). Wireless Tether'd FC when initiating tethering. When tried to re-install and open "Wireless Tether", get msg "Unable to tether. Is your device rooted?". After reboot, it's back to square one.

- Installed "Titanium Backup", "OfficeSuite", "AWD Launcher EX", "smart App Protector" but get FC when opened. Tried moving but no success

Apologize in advance for my noobiness if these are not really "issues". :p If anyone know how to resolve these hiccups on mine, please let me know. Thank you.

EDIT:

Re-formatting, re-partitioning microSD and re-installing with a new data.img

Re-read the post and found Cope's advice here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13107777&postcount=5574. I will try it if the FC problem persists.

All previously FC'ed programs are now okay.

For the "Wireless Tether", re-install the apk. And then, clear data like Cope advised.

APN still cannot be saved. Delete the ext3 partition again?

Loaded 4-22. Seems ok, but for the first time in awhile, I had to do the airplane mode thing to restore wireless/data, even though it appeared it was connected to our house wifi...

[HD2 Android SD Development] benpaddlejones:
if happened & the wap was inrange/connected right before and after update likely just be an IP conflict, if happens again is an issue but once off wouldn't worry about.

tip: I am using excellar autoloader to load from WinMo. I have set to autoload Droid at 3seconds and have turned on Airplane Mode in WinMo. When I reboot I don't wait the 3secs as soon as I see the Excellar screen I click Android. It seams almost no elements of WinMo load & I have found this improves perfomance, battery & 3g.

about to flash the 4/22 build right now. data has been much better in the last few nightlies. had a few issues with wifi tether but will test that with this new build.

Thanx everyone for all the continued work on this project!

hey..

as i had posted earlier also.. my phone does not restart after its 1st boot...

in earlier builds i have learned that the auto shutdown was only meant for partitioned SD card users..

but then during the installation of the latest two build also my phone dint reboot...

am i doing something wrong..???

please guide me.

i had the fix_permission file in sdcard/android/HERE before booting to android from winmo...

After I did this American Droid is absolutely great. I have no problem with FC, also update to never version is without problems. This was cause of all my problem

s before. Thanks you again.

Only problem is still mobile data connection.
[HD2 Android SD Development] adityo97:
this rom overall is great!!!

minor comment, why do wifi keep on dc's in the standby mode?
[HD2 Android SD Development] sshakuf:
i formatted the sd but still does not work

i still get the com.android.phone stopped error
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
probably to do with the driver.

i've actually pulled all the new new AOSP source for it, and will be implementing. this should also fix EAP and hidden wifi. should perhaps be a lil ahead of tytung this time hahaha :-P
[HD2 Android SD Development] Wildcopper:
Does that also mean reduced battery consumption, Warren? :)

sorry the question guys,

but I've a prb:

I cant' hear audio navigator (or audio music) in my interphone moto bt

Can you help me to find an app (that really works)?

many thanks

Same here!

Mobile data is working here, but no WiFi connections.

(BT Connections ok, too!)

Going back to 04/22 earlier this day..

Waiting for AVRCP!!! :-D

Sleep well, cope 6 warren! :-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Imperator Nick:
Update seems to have gone smoothly for the most part. Had an incident shortly after updating where the phone shut itself off, but everything seems OK at the minute. Been getting slightly elevated battery drain while on wifi in the last couple of builds (12-32ma as opposed to 6-9ma without). Is that fairly typical?
[HD2 Android SD Development] prashanthm:
Wow! Awesome!

Can't wait to test this with my backbeat.....
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
That seems good. The radio is the second biggest battery drain after the display, so make sure Wifi is set to sleep when the screen is off.

Battery Drain and speakerphone volume low.

Hi Guys,

First of all, HD2 Rocks ! and so does CM7 !!!

I have this small issue of the battery being drained very fast. In normal usage, the battery drains in a half a day , or less.

Also, the speakerphone volume on the HD2 is very very low.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Regards,

Sanjay B.

Ahh nice I hadn't spotted that setting, seems to be sorting it out
[HD2 Android SD Development] SportbikeRiderXX:
Keep screen awake?

Where's the setting to keep the screen awake while charging? I've been through every setting on in the OS for the last two days and I'm stumped. I vaugely remember it being mentioned here last week, but all of my search terms bring up nothing related. At ~100 posts per day, this thread is difficult to keep up!
[HD2 Android SD Development] cajunflavoredbob:
An easy way to get to the setting is to plug the device into a PC's USB port. You will get two options in your notification bar. One of them is USB debugging. Select that one and then tap the option to "Stay awake" in order to keep the screen on while charging. There may be other options as well as Market apps that will do the trick, but this seems to be the fastest method if you have a PC handy.
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
I've had another look and I don't think there is one. You will need a separate app to do this. There are plenty of profile managers to choose from. I use Llama and that would do it.

Swyped from my aHD2oid
[HD2 Android SD Development] SportbikeRiderXX:
Thanks, cajunflavoredbob...I knew the option was SOMEwhere. That was driving my nuts because I was searching for the option while it was NOT plugged in/charging.
[HD2 Android SD Development] cajunflavoredbob:
I came across that option a long while back when XDAndroid on the Rhodium was just kicking off. It's always been a simple way for me to have similar dock settings as I do in WM. Seeing as I leave the device charging in a cradle near my PC, I prefer to be able to see the screen when I need to. It's kind of sad, but I won't even consider a new cellular device to purchase unless the charge port is on the bottom. WM had me too spoiled...
[HD2 Android SD Development] RenVilo:
Hi guys,

I just flashed my HTC hd2 with a gingerbread 2.3.2 so that it boots as my os. BUT I want thisamerican version to boot as my is. I had it running from my SD card but battery life sucked.

Can anyone please tell me how to flash my phone with this version. TX
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
You can't. It's SD only.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
the past few pages where users have talked about slightly higher battery drain.. you should be smacked. go and read the notes in the first post in the change log.

Not only that but if you STOP BEING LAZYand read a few pages back.. im not asking much here.... like 5 to 10 pages back.... you find info like this (posts have time stamps on them.. so you can think about how long ago the discussion took place - just an fyi)

And this was from page 569... whats that 3 pages back?!?!? GOOD LORD!

either way logical / deductive reasoning here says that

1. we know about the battery drain.

2. we know how to fix it

3. we are actively working on it

4. we actually had it implemented for a build but it caused bigger problems

5. we are working on it

6. like all other problems.. we will squash it as soon as we can and when we do you will be the first to get it

and finally

7. we are working on it.

lol btw..

people say: HEY! YOU HAVE A PINK CAR

GPS fix

I am still having problems with very long GPS fix. It seems as though it does a cold start each time. I have done everything that was suggested: using Fasterfix for my region, using GPS status to clear and download a-gps data.

I don't have the same problems with WinMo. Has someone a solution or some woodoo words to say?

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
I was having trouble getting a first fix with this build, but a fresh download of agps data from GPS Status did the trick. One thing you didn't mention - make sure you have "use wireless networks" checked under location.

hi.

i want to ask somethink.

i have an older version of american rom,and i download the new one,how can i update it?without loose any files or program???

and somethikg alse...can i have on my sdcard many roms?and how can i change them easy?(rom manager?)and my phone goes slower if i have many roms????

thanks(sorry for my english)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Imperator Nick:
The simplest way is to keep your data.img. Open up your Android folder, delete everything execpt the data.img, then copy the contents of your freshly downloaded Android folder into the existing one on your sd card. It may not always work if there have been massive changes to the ROM, but I've updated from 0704 to 1304, then from 1304 to 2204 this way keeping everything intact
[HD2 Android SD Development] RenVilo:
What.. Really.. No ways :(

So what is the use of this then coz my battery only lasts a few hours when I use this on SD :(

[HD2 Android SD Development] eelpout:
I always find that my battery use goes up with that option checked. Speaking of which, I've decided I'll never whine again about a new build's battery drain until at least 3 days of use have passed. :)

Did anyone else have the American Android animation get stuck in a loop on this build? Happened to me the first time I booted: it would get to the lock screen, then 5 seconds later the animation would start all over again. :confused: Had to pull the battery. Seems fine now and it survived overnight without issue.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mundae:
Big problem.....

hey...

everything is working fine on the phone... wifi.. data service.. msging etc..

the only problem is CALLING... whenever someone calls or i make a call, the calls gets disconnected within 2seconds....

sometimes the call gets disconnected as soon as a accept it.. :confused:

i have tried rebooting android several times but it dint help...

iam using t-mobile HD2 :

ROM version-2.13.531.1

radio-2.10.50.26

protocol ver-15.39.50.07U

what should i do....?? please help... should i update my radio version..??

though the calling works completely fine in winmo...

[HD2 Android SD Development] cmajewsk:
Unbelievable. Very nice build. This is my first time with Andriod. I struggled getting it to work with my old Touch Pro2 for a while, but could never get GSM 3G to work, and even wifi didn't work very well. It wasn't the speediest either.

I decided to try it out on my HD2, and I cannot believe how good it works from the SD card. It's

very

fast, and everything I have tried so far seems to work very well - calls, WiFi (WPA2), 3G (found my carrier Etisalat very fast), GPS, music, Marketplace, Web, Gmail, I love that I can archive right from my device as I was using Exchange AS on Windows Mobile, and it wasn't very Gmail-centric. While I love Cookie Home Tab and all the widgets, and customizations that are available with WinMo...Andriod blows WinMo away. I'll be using this as my day-to-day build for a wile and making a donation!

Tanks!
[HD2 Android SD Development] benpaddlejones:
if you have you set your APN settings correctly & are in good range then yes try some different radios as this is not normal behaviour.

2.15.50.14 works perfectly for me & seams to be what most others are using.

I updated to the newest build yesterday.

Made a backup with Titanium, erased the old Android folder, copied the new one to my SD card and let it boot up. Worked without a hitch.

Downloaded Titanium from market but it force closed on me.

Moved Titanium from phone to SD and back again, redownloaded it, rebooted a couple of times in between and even repaired permissions. Nothing worked. Titanium just kept force closing on me, while all the other apps I tried worked fine.

I gave up and copied my old data.img into my Android folder.

Seemed to work, but then I found out, my sms were missing.

Tried to get them back with the help of Titanium, but it didn't work.

I was thoroughly frustrated by then and erased the new Android folder, copied back the old one. There was nothing wrong with the old build, so I thought I just wait some more for another build.

To my surprise, that didn't work either. Swype started force closing on me right away and my sms were still missing. I have no idea how something like that can happen. It was the old Android folder with all its contents, that worked flawlessly before.

I was in a pretty bad mood by then and went to bed.

After a good nights rest and finding out, that going back to winmo is no option after having used AmeriCanDroid, I gave it another try today.

I formatted my SD card, got rid of the swap and sd-ext partitions, like I had planed to do but was to lazy to do yesterday.

Copied my old Android folder back to my SD card and to my relief it worked. Sms were back, all apps working.

Made another backup with Titanium, erased everything from my card but the new backup, copied the new build onto my card and booted up.

Restored everything with Titanium and it works perfectly.

Drain isn't higher as with the last build I used, stays under 10mA, mostly around 5-8mA. No hickups, no force closing, no lag.

So to all the people that have problems with this build. Before you raise hell in the forum and waste time on finding an "easy way" for your problem, just start fresh.

Format your SD card, leave it empty but for the Android folder. Let Andorid create a new data.img and your chances are pretty good, that this will solve your problem.

And it's faster, too.

It might sound like a lot of work, but honestly, I spend 3hours yesterday with the easy way and it didn't work. Almost left an ugly dent in one of my walls, because I was very short of smashing my phone against said wall, out of frustration.

I spend an hour today, with about 40minutes of copying stuff to and from my card, because I have a slow 16Gb Class2 SD, 20 minutes of restoring my stuff and my phone works perfectly now. No frustration, no risk of smashing my phone.

Thanks again to the devs and their team. Keep up the fantastic work, it's much appreciated.

While Im in a text conversation window and try to respond to the text, I try to type but nothing I type shows up. The only way to be able to respond to the text would be to back out of the conversation and go back into it.

Anyone else encounter this too?
[HD2 Android SD Development] agtokc:
Go to T-Mobile com and perform the update for your device. The newest rom update has the latest radio.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
As an alternative have Google backup your app data, and use titanium for the rest. probably easier and more stable route in the future. ;)

With that said....

MAJOR UPDATE:

WiFi with EAP authentication **SHOULD** work in the next release coming today. I am not reconfiguring my own router or will Cope to test this, though I can assure you we are now officially up-to-par with a slight mod of the latest driver. Thanks goes to tytung for acting as a perfect example on how to do this properly, I woulda missed the nvs update had it not been for his/her example.

WiFi and BT with the recent mod's both start quicker, appear to connect quicker. Speeds, if I recall correctly last time I had done this(prior to stepping out and through course of my own mistake deleting the uncommitted to git WiFi driver), should be a bit improved as well.

We are also testing our latest attempt to get AVRCP properly working. Cope will have some results soon - Hopefully good news. :)

Empathy

Hahaha shamez23 my man! Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one. I was very frustrated as I had a the EXACT same problem like you did. I posted a few pages back at the beginning of the new build (Post#5670). Took me a while and then I remember about your advice regarding deleting ext3 partition last time so I followed it. Long story short: reformat microsd, repartition, install fresh with new data.img and I was good to go. Took a while to restore everything back in its place and now they're all working. Cheers! :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] kdelisle:
Advantage to partitions?

Hi guys -

Alright, I have a question. I don't have the ext partition. I generally get very good performance from the build. What is the advantage of partitioning? When my 16gb SD card misbehaved, I bought two identical 8GB SDs, so I could conceivably play with partitioning, knowing that I have a reliable quick backup.

Right now, between google and Ti, and using the same data.img file, when i update the build, it's extremely efficient and my stuff is all there. (I only have to play with the lcd density, and that is optional.)

Is partitioning supposed to increase access speed or restoration of settings? Otherwise, sure seems like just using the unpartitioned SD is easy, simple and effective.

Thanks, and again, thanks to Warren and Cope for all the consistent hard work.

Kris
[HD2 Android SD Development] kdelisle:
Bootloaders

If you want to have several ROMs accessible, use Exceller bootloader. Google it. It is a dual boot software program and allows you to choose on Winmo boot which Android program you want to use. I advise keeping Cope's build named Android, but you likely can name the other builds whatever you want (folder name!).

I have some others but haven't used them in over a month because AmeriCandroid's build is great.

Oh, and I have no lag due to having multiple ROMs on my card.
