@privatepile,

No need to rename the data.img, your windows file manager, hides the extensions of files. This creates a data.img and a rather data.img.img and grow the problem.

Can someone confirm that new installation done right with the last rom; Me, the update process went fine, but I know not if I did a clean install what would happen.
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
Probably not related to your Android problems and I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like your Windows Explorer is set to hide extensions of known filetypes. This could cause some problems when manually renaming some files, especially when adding extensions...
[HD2 Android SD Development] Robbie P:
privatepile- it seems that initrd.gz file is described as a winRAR archive, on my WIN 7 machine it is described as just winRAR. I think you need to enable file extensions and post another screenshot of SD/Android. Are you booting from Magldr or HaRet?

Edit; sorry its HaRet

dream of stable data

still suffering the most incredible data drops. I still love this Build enough that I try to cope.(pun not intended) I can't wait to try the port change fix, any idea when this is getting applied to the sd build?

I have the same data drop problem, Switch to one of the sense build but experience same problem. Solved the issue after replacing the kernel with ACA625 kernel (I recall ACA625 build is the most stable data connection)

Screen not coming on after/during phone call

I've been using ACA for ages now and have never had any major problems.

I'm currently on build 110711.

When i make a phone call the proximity sensor turns the screen off (as it should be) but then when i move the phone away the screen doesn't come back on now.

Even by pressing any of the buttons the button lights will come on and end the call etc but the screen won't come on.

I've rebooted the phone but problem is still the same

If i plug the phone in a charger after a call then the screen will come back on and i'll be able to start using the phone otherwise i have to reboot the phone by taking battery out.

Any ideas??

Do you know how many people have DLed the build from your link. I think a lot of devs like to say "no mirrors" so that they have an idea of how popular they are;) No need to post numbers here of course, just maybe keep a note (if asked) when you pull it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
A lot of Devs receive payment from the download servers (except MagaUpload :D ), but I don't think that's the issue here. Cope has in the past asked for links not to be quoted because they were test builds.

There's no problem in linking the post containing the download link as it will lead nowhere once the dl link is removed (if you are asked to remove it).

I have a problem. I copied a folder into the data folder in the android folder (Android/data). When I reboot into android a lot of apps crashed including htc ime so I deleted the folder I copied into the data folder. Now ACA won't get pass the silver ACA loading screen.

Stuck at Boot Animation

Don't know what happened but since I rebooted my phone today, it's been stuck at the boot animation. When I moved the data.img out of the way (so it would create a new), it did boot without problems so it seems there's a problem with my data.img?

I really, really, really don't want to start anew since I had many apps installed.

Anything else I could try?
[HD2 Android SD Development] whizzkid_cool:
Ya, i always dont like to start anew data.img either. But sometimes, no choice. A fresh install will be very good to use. Firstly backup your contact then try to use this App "Backup Everything" (FREE). It saves you lot of trouble to install back your Apps 1 by 1.

When you click on restore, it will automatically prompt you for every App to be install continuously! You may try it! Hope it helps...

I could only find "BackupEveything" on the Amazon App store (not market or Slide), and for $1.99
[HD2 Android SD Development] Zippy1970:
Apparently, my memory is failing me because the past three months I've made monthly backups of my SD card (but for some odd reason, I can't remember that at all). So I have been able to restore a month old backup to my phone.

I've also been able to "look inside" the non-working data.img file and don't see anything wrong with it. So I'm not sure what's causing it to hang on boot when I it. But since I have a working phone again now, I'd rather just copy the important data over from the non-working data.img to the restored data.img

So which files hold my important data like SMS (text) messages, contacts, etc.? Any other files I should (try to) copy over?
[HD2 Android SD Development] listerinetotalcare:
Yes its a hardware problem, not sure if it is the proximity or light sensor wich is broken, mine is the same. The last thing I heard, maybe 2-3 weeks ago on this thread, that warrenb213 said he would make a fix so that you can turn off your proximity/light cant remeber wich. Send him a mail and ask him how its going, I sent him one 2 weeks ago but he didnt reply :p

You could remove the file /system/lib/hw/sensors.htcleo.so and that would fix the problem, but the phone will not be able to recognize when you tilt it ( going in to landscape mode).

This is GREAT advice - I'm not kidding - I have a lot of batteries, I don't like to plug things in :) Anyway, I swap batteries a lot and can tell you the pins WILL wear out - they get "loose" I guess I'd say - everything still works fine - but it's troubling every time I swap batteries. Save yourself the stress - follow Uzi's advice - push the shiny red candy-like button.

Oh, and yeah I have data drops too.

I found a new radio helped a lot, and helped with faster reconnects, but doesn't solve anything.

I also grabbed a 3G sim from t-Mobile - that really did nothing.

I have tried about 6-7 different base WM ROMs with clean Android installs - it doesn't really matter which WM rom you run you'll get drops on any WM base.

Sounds familiar, shame it hasn't worked but it was worth a try at least. Best thing is to use titanium or similar to backup regularly, then at least you can restore it all if your data.img goes wrong.

I backup every day just in case, even though I have been on nand for a while and haven't needed it

Titanium Backup or similar app is a real necessity. Don't think the HD2 (or I) could live without it.

You guys do know that on a new or fresh install, you can set the data.image size to 2 GB's in the Startup.txt file. Toporesize never worked well for me.

@uzi2

Hi uzi2

Being aware of your experience with this rom I would like to know your full setup

of SetCPU or any other tips you may have in order to reduce battery drain.

With DATA ON, which I need to receive VOIP calls, the battery drains within 4-5 hours. I have the same problem with SD or NAND version.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Steve A
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
The rom has no battery drain issues, but many android apps do. I doubt whether my SetCPU profiles make any significant impact. Using Tasker to turn off all data, WiFi and gps at night will help. Your high battery drain will be caused by VOIP. I use Skype, but I only connect when I need it. Leaving it on for incoming calls will drain the battery at a high level. You can confirm whether your VOIP app does the same with current widget.

[HD2 Android SD Development] scorpion44:
Thanks for the answer uzi, unfortunately voip is much needed and have to have it on most of the time. GPS, WIFI and BT are always off yet I have seen reports/claims by some users of 5-10 mA with Data,WiFi and BT on so I will keep searching for best solution/rom/kernel combination.

Thanks.

To clarify for newbies:

The Size-Setting in Startup.txt is for a fresh / new install only --> data.img is kind of empty afterwards ...unless if it was there already before then the size-setting of startup.txt is ignored to avoid overwriting.

BUT with toporesize you can resize an existing data.img which has all your user apps and a lot (or even all?) settings inside

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

It's about how to repair a broken data.img.

e2fsck is one way

With toporesize (PC) you have a gui and eventually another check (maybe it's not different to e2fsck... but if i want to recover my stuff i try every possibility

But even that did not fix my data.img awhile ago.. I used a trick: I have also a SD-Version of NEXUS (setup and working)...and i took my "bad ACA data.img" to boot with it the Nexus-SD-Rom. (this repaired it somehow.) Then shutting down Nexus. taking the data.img back to the ACA-folder..although it looks not perfect (empty home screen, a lot of FC for some apps(backup, uninstall, install via Titanium-Backup anyway ...well, it works)

[HD2 Android SD Development] achkar:
Can I get a mirror link please? :\
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Yes, thanks for the clarification of my OP. Permit me to reiterate my intent regarding a 1024MB data.image file, whether it be compromised or not, and toporesize in general...

I prefaced with Titanium backup... my thought being, if one already has good backups...

The best experience I had with toporesize was having it convert my good 1GB data.image... to a 1.5GB data.image... everything worked fine. The max file size I could get from it was 1.5GB and no more.

A point came where ACA enabled 2GB data.image files to be created with a new/fresh install...

I took advantage of this opportunity to do that... restoring all of my old data with Titanium Backup. Some homescreen widgets need to be recreated etc., but it was all painless.

I have no experience with e2fsck. I don't like jumping through hoops... I like to take the easiest, simplest path to my goal.

My suggestion was intended to mean... IF one already has good b/u's - Go with a new fresh install (move the old 1GB data.image out of the filesystem) and edit the startup.txt file to have date.image=2048MB. Then restore the data.

With new upgrades, and having and an already good (pre-existing) data.image... I always edit the startup.txt file; removing the data.image reference.

-------------------------

Fwiw... Maybe I'm just missing the point, but was only trying to be helpful.

Think of e2fsck as the Linux version of Windows diskchk. It is very useful to check for fylesystem errors, but most people seem to take the sledgehammer approach and reinstall/reformat rather than use it.

BTW, another question: I've just subscribed to a T-Mobile Plan (voice and data) for my HD2, and when I want to connect for datas, it says that my data mode is on Edge (little "E" on top) and not HSPA (3g+)... I've checked my connection settings, and it's indeed on 2G/3G.

I found it a little surprising, as I just moved in Minneapolis... I thought that such a city would be covered by 3g+ ?

I come from France, and I've never had any trouble when I wanted to connect with HDSPA.

(Same thing when I boot on WinMo... "E", not "H"...)

Do you think it's just a problem of poor 3G+ coverage ? or is it normal ?
