Ok, so say you're an idiot and don't do a backup. Is there anyway to salvage the data from programs from one data img to another? I thought that I could just copy the extracted individual data files (ie com.androsz.electricsleepdonate) to the new data img but that hasn't worked for me.

Is there any possibility that this could work or am i just dreaming?
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
OK, you're an idiot, you should do backups. (j/k)- I don't really mean to call you anything, I don't know you or your logic... but you should make a point in the future of making backups. Get Titanium Backup from the market, and use it. It's easy. As for the rest of your problem/question; I can't help you, but maybe someone more knowledgeable like uzi2 (or someone else) will chime in and advise you.

Oh, and btw, your Sig., "Those who can, do. Those who can't, search the forums for the wears of those who can." - Cool I get the point - and English is a tough language.

You mean to say 'ware's' - which is (like) someone's stuff. The way you spell it; 'wears' - is like the clothes someone wears. You should edit 'wears' to ware's', so your sentence will have some coherency. - Sorry, couldn't help myself. :D

CM9 is already here ! :) Let's hope that Cope and Warren won't make us wait too long... :)

[HD2 Android SD Development] ezzie:
1. The main problem is that I wasn't using any logic;) What's so sad is I know how easy it is and I just hadn't done it. So there is really no excuse for it!

2. The second part is even more embarrassing. Many a moon ago I was actually an English major. One more reason why I shouldn't try to do anything after the ambian!
[HD2 Android SD Development] ajitlimaye:
I'm sailing in the same boat, mate. I never used to backup the old installation and ended up reinstalling every app after an upgrade to the latest ACA version. I've started using Titanium backup now.

By the way, about your revised signature: "ware's" should be "wares". The apostrophe is not necessary, it's just the plural of ware.

Liked your signature picture comparison of Winmo/ Android/ iPhone
[HD2 Android SD Development] hecatombercm:
I was curious if this change has been applied? I commented earlier on the new build and only now realized that I was assuming it would be in this build. If it hasn't' I apologize for the useless repetition.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
Nope. We still have to get the SD side booting. Once that happens ;)

The next nand build we release will be 35 I do believe just awaiting confirm from cope. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] hecatombercm:
Very exciting news, disregard my earlier comments concerning the data drops. I'm using SD as such I will be gratefully patient. Thanks for your prompt response!
[HD2 Android SD Development] cporeaux:
Great news for us ;-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] WizardBGR:
ICS-related would be greater... :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] cporeaux:
ICS will be heavier and is more designed for dual-CPU.

I don't stay i won't try, but sometimes, faster OS are better than latest and less usable ;-)

It's another topic ;-)
[HD2 Android SD Development] anseio:
While on the subject of English and corrections, you should change "ware's" to "wares". Remove the apostrophe, as it indicates possesion when you meant the plural form of 'ware'.
[HD2 Android SD Development] d3m0n1:
There is a possibility to extract data from an old data.img file.

If you have windows, you can install ext2fs drivers, and Gizmo(something, I don't remember the exact name but it definitely starts with Gizmo). Search this thread for the 2 files. After installing the 2 files start gizmo and mount your old data.img (search this thread for the how-to), and extract the files/data you need. Unmount the image file, and mount your new data.img and copy the previously saved files into this new image. Keep in mind that you will need to copy the files back to their own folders, otherwise it wont work.

Unmount new image, copy it to the ACA Android folder on your sdcard, and boot Aca. Once you have booted, run rom manager, and click fix permissions. Once it had finished, reboot, and now you should have your old stuff working.

As for finding out which files you need to copy from the mounted old data.img, I would do the following.

Boot Aca android with the new data.img, and install Titanium backup, and the application(s) that you had in the old data.img and want to extract their data. Launch those apps at least once, configure them, use them a little, to allow them to create their files in the data.img. After this launch titanium backup and do a backup of the apps you need. Now you will have them backed up on your sdcard in a folder called Titaniumbackup. Open and analyze the gzipped files, and try to find something similar in the mounted old data.img.

Hope this will help you at least step on the wright path to extract and reinsert your valuable data.

Proxy Setting

where can i find the Proxy Settings for Wifi in This ROM
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
ezzie... Heads-up!!!

Thanks for the correction guys, I'm getting a little rusty. I should've known better re: the use of an apostrophe for indicating possession. :)

fwiw... When and where English is the language of the website, I usually shy away from correcting others grammar and spelling mistakes if and when I notice them. After all, it's not really a big deal. Sometimes though, I feel compelled to say something. When I screw-up and am corrected, I always appreciate the correction; It's a learning experience. Many don't share these sentiments. (Ha-ha, lol) I gave up after trying to explain; They're going over there to get their stuff. - Yeah, some of you guys get it. Most don't care... so I usually leave it alone. :)

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

I just shared information that I 'found', and passed it on. It worked for me, and I'm happy it worked for you. There are far more experienced and knowledgeable folks on this site than I'll ever be. Many who've forgotten more than I'll ever know. XDA is a really nice community. I'm pleased to have benefited by being here, and I give back what I can... what I'm capable of.

Thank the community. Thank Warren & Cope. (...and don't refer to anyone as your hero) Yes, I know, It was just a figure of speech. No sweat. It's a good feeling to get everything working. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzziah0:
If you haven't done anything on this yet, and IF you saved your Android folder from your previous install, then you could revert back to the previous version of ACA, create the necessary backups, and then go back to the next version of ACA, and do the restore. ...lots of ifs though!

One more question: For sd install do i have to delete the sdmagldr folder from android folder on my sdcard?

(Best translation I could find)... "Not more than 5-6 minutes. Remove the battery and start again. Will be provided to the correct radio."

So there you go. :D

If batterystats.bin doesn't exist in that location; don't sweat it. It'll (certainly) be recreated via charge/discharge cycles (I think). :)

Battery Monitor Widget app (free from the market) is worth having. The Pro version, even better! (imo)

Since a couple of builds back, I've been getting the message " Your device is not compatible with this item" when trying to install certain apps from the marketplace e.g. yelp. I've seen similar posts where folks adjust the resolution and reboot or clear the data and cache of the market app or remove market updatest. I too have tried these but this hasn't worked for me.

Any ideas how to resolve the issue?
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Oh come on. Somebody help this guy out. You should be able to have complete market access to android apps for the ACA HD2.
[HD2 Android SD Development] anseio:
Yeah, people gloss over some of the things that they either feel is beneath the forum or that they just don't want to help out with, cuz it's been asked a million times. I had a question a few pages back... no responses. Figured it out myself though. The HD2 WP7 forum seems much friendlier. That being said... I'm off my soapbox now.

Market issues have to do with either the language specified in the device and/or screen pixel density. Usually, it's pixel density. Download the app LCD Display (LCD Density?), not sure, but it's easy to find. Set the density to 240, allow reboot. Try market again. After that, you SHOULD be able to pick another density and have the market continue to work. You may also want to set the language to English US from English UK, if not already.
[HD2 Android SD Development] gadgetmaster07:
See the below link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19745484#post19745484

It's related to screen density. Changing it to 160 or 240 in startup.txt should do the trick.
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
If a question has been asked "a million times" then it doesn't need asking again. What's so wrong with searching and reading?

If you had a problem that wasn't answered, maybe no-one knows the answer. Perhaps you will be kind enough to share the solution, so it doesn't get asked again...
[HD2 Android SD Development] andreiboyanov:
Last phrase is better to read like that:

"Will work provided you have the correct radio."

I have the same problem - I waited more then 15 minutes then restarted the device. Now I cannot even launch CLRCAD.exe - I have the following error:

"The file CLRCAD cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found." etc.

Hi,

Good news with this new ROM, 2011-11-29, work to do ;-).

Another 'personnal' news : i've reached 5mA with my device :D, and was so happy.

After last night, i saw some 60mA usage during night. And after my travel through sub/train and laucnhing some apps, i reached 60mA again :mad:

I've installed some days ago, to test, 'Android Assistant'. And after a 'Quick-Boost' usage (memory clean, in fact), i went down to 5mA...

Will monitor it through next days, and'll tell you.

Thanks A-Team for this new build ;-)

Thank you
[HD2 Android SD Development] satan!:
better to build anew.

[HD2 Android SD Development] ks123:
i did a research for a similar problem after the ROM/Radio Update.: if you can only run already pre-installed programs (exe) AND NOT any new *.exe or *.cab (like CLRCAD.exe) without getting "The file *** cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found." ? Then you probably have to reset Windows mobile to factory settings..

Veterans of forums always seem to forget how difficult things can be for others. This thread is 1700+ pages. Of course, a search is necessary, but can also be confusing. Have you considered a troubleshooting FAQ? Or, would that make too much sense?

BTW... the question that I had asked had not been asked here in the past 30 days.
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
ymmv, but my 1127 data.img works on 1129 with no problems
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
True, the FAQ has not been updated recently, but it is still a useful source of information. There is always a link in the first post to the time of the update, so reading 1700 pages is neither necessary, nor recommended.

My invitation for you to share your problem and it's solution was not meant in any demeaning way. Give it a good title and it will be easier to find in a search. I'm sure I won't be the only one to thank you for doing it.

As usual the data connection isn't buggy. Suggest a fresh install.

It's fine formatted as a single FAT partition. You will need at least 1.5GB free in order to load this ROM. If you don't have that space available, you can edit the startup.txt in order for a smaller data.img to be created. The default is 1GB.
