this is the way it should be done.

mccm just decided he would use our build and modify it and re-release it as his own. but he doesnt know what he is doing. we care compiling from source, we make modifications to the source code, tailored to any issues that are currently observing....... sorry.. just dont get me started on that guy. (he does it to other builds to not just this one)

either way. send me the info to so that i may see what ur up to if you don tmind :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
edit /system/etc/gps.conf

there is a line in there that has us (for united states) in there.

change the 'us' to 'au' without the quotes.

reboot

this should help.

other examples:

pl poland

ca canada

uk united kingdom

it italy

fr france

etc

has anybody else problems with higer battery drain in v. 09.03? Battery-Stats shows me a high consumption of "android os".

besides this, gps and tether are working great.

wifi tether issue solved!

Thanks to the relentless help of docent I have managed to solve the wifi tether problem on my side! :D

It was singled out that DroidWall is causing the problem. As soon as you deactivate the fw you can run wifi tether (I am using 3.0) and everything runs smooth.

So far only one random reboot, will fix permissions and hope that solves it!

Aside from that minor issue everything working very smooth!

Thanks guys, I love my HD2 with your build! :D

the gps code for the united kingdom is gb

I'm not sure if uk would work anyway, but I've been using gb for ages and not had any problems with it.

I believe I found a Bug:

In previous version I was able to connect to AdHoc-WLAN ntworks.

In actual (Mar 09) release I can see the network but not connect to it. (If I click connect nothing happens)

In previous release WLAN was working perfectly fine. (AdHoc, Infrasturcture WPA2, WPA, WEP, unprotected)

Sorry, I'm an Android newbie. I assume I edit this file using a text editor on my PC but I'm not sure about the file path. I can see a system.ext2 file in the Android folder but I'm sure this is not the one I need to edit. Can someone explain this in a little more detail please.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Straynart:
You have to edit the file on your mobile, not on your PC, I think.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dark alex:
easiest way is to use the tool adb from the android sdkto copy the file over to your PC and edit it. Then copy it back to the phone.

You will have to find out how that works yourself as I simply do not know it from scratch now.

Congratulations on the job;)

I mounted the last 3 / 9

everything works well

the only thing the consumer is higher than the other builds:(

next relase improve the consumption would be perfect

thanks a lot

First couple of reboots it's normal to have higher battery consumption... It settles to 4-9 in a while...

HTC Sense Look For AmeriCanAndroid

This is a guide for the basic htc sense look that MCCM has modded. I think this looks much more like sense though. Copenhagen will clarify more on this later.

1. Download the attached files on this post.

2.Download and install the NT-sense-signed.apk to phone. (Install the file like a normal apk from a file manager.)

3. Open the "theme chooser" app, find the one that says NTSense (blank preview) and hit apply. (It will show a popup saying resources are missing for your screen size. Hit apply anyway. You should notice a change in your theme right away, the HTC sense theme.)

2. Download LauncherPro from the Market.

3. Set it as your default.

4. Open up the themes.rar folder, Copy the HTC Sense 2.1 folder into the root of SD. (Or a folder of your preference) You can experiment with the Expresso later.

5. On LauncherPro , Press :

Menu Button > Preferences > Appearance Settings > Dock Background > Custom > Choose the dock . Find the HTC Sense 2.1 folder and look for the navbar.jpg inside. (This is your dock, NOTE: it may take another try to set it) The HTC Sense dock should now be set on the homescreen.

6. The Left-most icon (should appear as Phone icon) will be your app drawer. Hold the icon down, until a window pops up.

Change shortcut > App Drawer > Custom Icon > In the HTC Sense folder there will be a clean icon image, select this.

7. The three middle icons should be for your dialer. Hold each of them until the window pops up.

Change shortcut >Activities > Contacts >Phone (com.android.contacts.DialtactsActivity) >Custom Icon >Clean image icon

8. The Right-most icon is of your own preference. If you prefer the browser and just want to change the icon:

Change shortcut > Change icon > Custom icon

9. To change your wallpaper, look for the HTC sense wallpaper attached in the HTC Sense 2.1 folder.

As for the HTC sense-like clock, look for Beautiful Widgets or just find one yourself.

Sorry Cope, for some reason I can't attach files in PM.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Luke15153:
You can do it this way:

- open a filebrowser in Android and copy the file to the sd-card (for example to the root)

- connect the hd2 with the pc (sd-card will be mounted) and edit the file. Use pspad for example (see Docents faq)

- move the file to the folder Android\root\system\etc and keep in mind its case sensitive.

- reboot Android => this file should be used. You can have a look at it for example with ES File Explorer.

I do not know, what really happens. Is the file replaced, or just the other one used?

May be someone can explain it.

MMS working ?

This American Android cooks and a very big thanks for the people who made this possible. Been on the wagon from end of January and I am a happy Android converted Windows man :D !

If anyone can help getting MMS to work on the HTC Hd2 I would appreciate it very much. Find below our APN settings for the HTC Desire Z and HD. The internet is working perfectly but the MMS not. I am not sure what the setting in the build.prop should be for MMS settings if any but currently it is set as below for the internet ash shown in the FAQ.

I found a way to fix it,

Launch Root Explorer, go to system/app find the car home apk with the HD looking icon, delete it,

Then Google "car home apk" download and install, it should now be one icon.

NOTE: Do not delete carhomelauncher.apk or else you wont be able to use car home.

wifi tether issue solved!

I hate/fear to contradict one of the overlords...well its not a contradiciton really so I think I can do it:

You dont have to uninstall DW, simply disable the fw before using wifi tether and re-enable it afterwards. So you have all the benefits of DW AND wifi tether.

Unless there are other issues, in which case I apologise for my ignorant appeal and crawl back into my hut... :D

Results so far:

1. Untested

2. Fixed

3. Fixed

4. Fixed

5. Fixed

6. Dont care anymore (QQplayer is good enough)

7. Dopeness

I did the shortcut way and re-used my data.img file from the FEB09 build. If I run across any issues i cant fix easily I'll revert to a new clean one before bothering anyone on here. So far so good!

I am having data issues where I never had em before. People complained lot about the data issue but I never experienced anywhere near the stuff you guys did. But now I see. I'll look into it more and report back.

EDIT: I havent gotten a chance to fully test data yet but everything else seems to be working. I just have one last check before I g;head and give this 5 stars.

Android Doesn't Load

[I'm a noob here, I'm not sure if this is where I should ask for help, please don't kill me]

How much space should I need in my storage card to run this version? I tried to boot this version and the green HTC logo stayed there for more than an hour. When I booted to my winmo again, I realised that I had 0 free space. I'm using a 2GB card.

Greatings from Thailand (holidays) on "true" as apn. Edge only. I have this build running now flawlessly for a few hours.

One issue remains: when pressing the physical back-button on my hd2 the ringer-volume screen appears simultaniously. I have this issue since copes build 030211 and it' s pretty anoying.

New data.img. sd partioned. I searched the whole leo sd thread and searched through docent's great faq. Do you think it's a software issue?

Thanks for your efforts.

5 stars of course for this build.

You need more than a GB to get the android working on ur SD , apart from the installation folder which is approximately 202 MB u need some extra space for the ''Image File'' depending on the size of it, some has 256 some 1 GB and if you are looking to buy an sd card try to get one atleast atleast 8 gig ''class 4'' or above

Good luck

3G data speed

Guys,

I have posted about slow (slower than others) 3g data speed before you switched to Leo base (nobody commented on it). I have just tested your latest build against TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 which is Bravo based, and the 3g data download speed is about half the Typhoon's. I tested both builds several times with speedtest.net on the same phone, same spot, within minutes.

Maybe you should check with Tyween and see what is going on?

when updating

Hello there,

please let me start first with that I red the 3 FAQ's provided and still nothing answers my quiestion. Is it sufficient when changing to newer build to just copy the new zImage file, let it make new data.img and then overwrite it with the old one. Thank you very much in advance :)

apart from that that buld is AWESOME :))))
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
I really like this FAQ that Docent started and now WarCope helps maintain. It solves so many issues by just reading it. I want to give a shout out to Docent, Warren, and Cope for providing such a great resource for me to use.

I can imagine the amount of stupid questions I would have asked if I didn't read this first or search the thread. Thanks again guys. I have it linked to my Signature as well. It does suck that the XDA app doesn't show sigs, but they'll probably charge us for that bug fix too. =)

[HD2 Android SD Development] ben00:
I've been using this Rom pretty much from the start. I'm with WindMobile in Canada. I usually update the builds as they come out, occasionally starting with fresh Data.img to solve my problem.

I am experiencing frequent data disconnects with this Rom. Sometimes it will happen randomly, other times when the phone goes in and out of service, but I also find when it tries to load a secure page from a regular and vice versa the data goes off than back on.

I don't think I had these problems with the earlier builds, I believe it started when they changed the data.

Please help. As I am very happy with this build otherwise.

I've been using LED me know on every build I tried since they started to have the LED bug. Phone is still running at around 4-8mA. This app doesn't drain my battery.

This app has been suggested as a fix for the LED issue for quite some time now and I am pretty sure a lot of people use it. Battery drain, related to LED me now, has never been mentioned.

Rather user fasterfix, a program with root rights from the market. You can select your country and edit the GPS file for you.
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
Actually quite a few people over the history of suggesting and using LEDmeknow have mentioned higher battery drain. So I would think that his concern actually is quite justified. I don't use it personally. I could give two ****s about my LED's. The "plug it into power" workaround is good enough for me. But for others its annoying enough to use another app.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Copy the Android folder with all content to your sd card and put the data.img from your old Android folder into the new one. That's it.

Save your old folder to a PC, including the data.img, before you do anything. Just to make sure you have a backup of your working system, in case anything goes wrong.

Sometimes using the old data.img won't work. If that is the case cope or warren will say so.

But sometimes you'll also run into problem although the old data.img is working for almost everyone.

In both cases you'll have to create a new data.img.

You can make a backup of your apps with a backup tool like titanium, to save some time.

[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Well, there are always people that have an unusually high battery drain. Sometimes it stops after a couple of reboots, sometimes not.

I've been following copes old thread from the start and this one aswell. Since I am using LED me know I think I would have noticed if several people had mentioned that they had found this app to be the culprit of their high battery drain.

As I have said, I'm using this app and have been using it for a long time on several builds with no ill effect on my battery consumption. Therefore I don't think the battery drain is related to this app.

This app has also been included in the build and I guess cope and warren wouldn't have done that if they knew that it was eating up your battery.
[HD2 Android SD Development] janne303:
I give up this android thing. I now downloaded mucho things I dont know even why I downloaded to get the boot to work and still nothing :/
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
I'm not saying it was the culprit or a root cause. I'm just saying that people have mentioned high battery drain with LEDMEKNOW in the past. Which is contrary to what you said. I am not saying that it actually was the issue, but that many times it has been suggested to be part of it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
Thanks for the feedback. I have a feeling that it COULD be the overhead involved in running the LEDMEKNOW app, and not really a result of the led's themselves. :)

But now for my typical post format:

Just a heads up....

I'm still SLOWLY making progress in backporting much of the .37 kernel into our .32 setup. I'm into nand territory at this point, and have a feeling that after I finally get this to compile I'll need to run through all of the commit's that were made to get the hd2 working.....just to make sure those changes are in place(gonna take even more research) in the newer code. I kinda feel like I should have started with .37 and made the commits but whatever. lol
