it's easy...just download any Kernel you wished, and you extract it...now copy the Zimage, and the other folders in that kernel to the ANDROID folder, now it going to overwrite the last Kernel files....

I changed to this hastarin.eb it has support for the extended battery, and it seemed to worked fine...but then I lost the WIFI...so I got back to this Kernel...it show that it not charging but when I wake up, it has charged the phone...:D

ANYONE HAS ISSUE WITH GOGGLES getting forced close?:confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] k8108:
So pleased to see a new build. My 240 density 'broke' a couple of days ago. Tried several times to reload the 7/15 build with my saved data image, using standard procedure of copying 240 root file to sd root, but 240 just wouldn't come back. Tried to change with lcd density changer, but it showed my density at 240 - when these old eyes know that it wasn't. Wierd.

Worth the effort now to start with a fresh data image on the new build. Seems to be running great.

Another thing that has been happening in the last few builds is that while charging, my SD card gets unmounted. I try to toggle the mount/unmount in settings, and sometimes it works after a reboot, but most of the time my SD card is unavailable these days. Bothersome when trying to access media, etc.

Any suggestions other than using my extra batteries instead of a charging cord?

I tried to load this and changed the default location from "Android" to something else and it just hangs on the "Powered by American Android" screen...any ideas why?
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
look at the file called: startup.txt

if you can't figure out why from there.... :-P

Dude how about a enabling two way call recording in your next kernel...
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
It is just you. :P

:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
from day 1 (dec 2010) we've told users not to do this.

if you want to run a second (different version of android) change it's default location and leave aca @ /sdcard/Android
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
i think warren posted a little while back that he was going to enable it.. ;)

and im -in the process of- building a new build right now that has his 0723 kernel in it... so.. if logic is right... the new build should have this enabled. ;)_
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
like wise my friend..... you too :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] naturesbless:
I had figured. :p Okay. I will try another fresh install.

Note, I updated the USB driver using Android SDK and AVD manager, but somehow I can't transfer data to my SD card in Android mode and have it be readable? Are my ports broken?

Super awesome build, everything else is working perfectly!

Bloody USB...
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
have you changed the zImage to something other then what came with the build?

have you put the build files @ /sdcard/Android?

do you have the latest radio ROM for your hd2?

install exceller boot loader for winmo it will help you boot.
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
all three. there is no reason why you can't choose for yourselves which ones you want to use. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
not sure... just wait for the 0724 build and let me know after u try it on that 1.

in the meantime get drop box :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] dumbquestion:
TubGirl, that would be awesome. I just rifled throu and didn't see anything obvious. Which of the settings is it under, if you would be so kind? :o
[HD2 Android SD Development] warriorvibhu:
Great news Buddy :) .. Looks like i missed that post but thanks again for reconfirming ..Booting ur july 22 build i am sure would be as awesome as previous ones ..In fact better .. :)

Keep up the work.. you guys need to beat yourselves .. ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Tubgirl:
No problem... just go to "Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Interface > Status bar tweaks" and check the Battery percentage checkbox. Ta-da!

0724 build??? I really want to take a bite out of the 0722 burger but I guess I'll just wait it out a little bit longer. :D I suppose I can do some studying in the mean time. Thanks Cope and Warren for your dedication to the ACA project!

Battery

Has there been changes to the proximity sensor/battery issue ? (I know it's not in the changelog, except from "completely rebuilt" and "new kernel")

I saw this in the Dorimanx Rom thread (post 1):

"The 60ma battery drain comes from the stock lock screen, or from email.apk I am always disable the stock lock screen and delete the mail app, just use any other until CM7 Team will fix that, then no more battery drain."

I test it with the JUL 22 build, but still no luck with the location.

My location became unavailable since applying the new GPS lib, did I do anything wrong?
[HD2 Android SD Development] eddyedwards007:
Hi guys and girls,

I'm having real problems trying to get past the powered by screen. I loaded this build as I normally do, old data image, transfer via multi mount sd app, boot with excellor loader, but it wouldnt load. I had to go out this morning so was stuck with win mo for a bit, but I'm now back home, I've reloaded the new build and it booted ok so I just thought it was maybe a bad file transfer. After it booted up I changed the screen density with the lcd density app I normally use and then used hot reboot to reboot the interface, since then I cant get it to load up. I've tried re downloading the build again and I've just transferred it to my card via my card reader so I'll let you know how it goes. If that doesn't work I'll format my sd and start again. By the way I don't use any partitions. The only other time I had problems was when Cope reduced the size of the rootfs.img and again I couldn't get past the powered by screen, changing to the previous rootfs.img as advised by Cope solved the problem. I don't know whether that's what the problem is this time??

Regards
[HD2 Android SD Development] collins521:
That's where I changed the location. Just replaced Android with the different folder name and it just hangs.

Change the default location where?

[HD2 Android SD Development] eddyedwards007:
Well I found what the problem was :)

I connected my sd card via card reader and I was about to copy a previous rootfs.img over to the android folder when I noticed my data image was only 250 odd mb in size??? Don't know how that happened? Anyway I hadn't recently copied my data image so had to use an old one and have just finished restoring my set up with titanium, now all is good, until the later update lol :)

Thank you so much for the new build, I'm testing it right now. One thing that I'm wondering is: do we still need the patches i posted before?

such as

ram script, disable proximity sensor, 24h gps update and 1.8 agps ?

Thank you! I just don't want to install stuff that is not needed!

i still see high batt. drain after call.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Faz20:
I have a question, I have followed the installation steps to the exact and I'm updating from a build around about the April 10 time. I have usually updated with no error but I have a slight problem right now.

The phone re-booted after about 5 mins which was expected, but this time I'm stuck on the "Powered by AmeriCan Android" screen, I know it says on the front page this will take a while but should it take over about 75-80 minutes? I don't want to pull out the battery in case it should be taking this long, I'm not impatient or anything, just wanted to know if this is normal? The first ever time I put this build on my HD2 after the re-boot, it took about 20 mins max so this is rather peculiar, I have followed the installation steps to the exact. Any guidance would be appreciated, I am looking forward to this build as it is so long since I have updated. Once again, thanks in advance. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Pull the battery. More than 20 minutes is too much.
[HD2 Android SD Development] SuperXM1ke:
High batt drain because of patches?

In the 0715 build I applied all the prox sens patches and such and noticed a great improvement of battery life. I don't see that same improvement with the 0722 build. Is anyone else experiencing this as well? I clean installed the build and reapplied the patches and I'm getting major battery drain. Any thoughts?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Faz20:
I have done this. Giving it another try, hope it goes well this time!
[HD2 Android SD Development] Faz20:
I have now got it working however I had backed up and now restored all system and user apps with Titanium Backup, it occured to me however that this may over-ride some updated stuff that perhaps came with this build, is this the case? If not then everything is ok and I thank the developers for taking the time out to create such an awesome build :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] dyval:

Eagerly waiting for 0724 build, still satisfied with 0709 .. build.. big thanks to you guys.. no one can beat you guys!

NOOOOO

i rebooted the phone and there are no files on the sd card, from pc I see only weird filenames but no folder, the capacity used is still the same but I can't see any files and folders.I have a backup but still this stuff freaks me out!
[HD2 Android SD Development] newbietruly:
Bud, if you want 0722, then it's on the front page. I think you meant 0724? ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
As long as you haven't backed up and restored any of the system files (the red ones), you should be fine.

Apps will update themselves again, if you overwrote them with older versions.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Seems like your SD card got corrupted.

You can try to repair it but I'd go for a fresh install.

If it happens again, it may be a sign that your SD card has a defect and you'll have to replace it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] materoprodutions:
just restore everything with a backup of this morning. I just hope it doesn't happen again!

Still experiencing random reboots

I'm still experiencing random reboots with every build past 0705. I don't know what's going on, but I think it has to deal with tytung's gps libs. I tried implementing qwerty's libs into the 0722 build but it still reboots out of nowhere. Anybody else experiencing this? I tried using an old data img, new one, and tried formatting my sd card but results are the same.

running a tmous hd2, magldr 1.13, radio 2.15, wp7 green mango on nand, and 32gb sandisk micro sd
[HD2 Android SD Development] kushXmaster:
Sounds like a bad sd card. They work kinda like paper, writing and erasing causes wear and eventually makes big "holes" those are bad. There is freeware available to check if your sd card is damaged. Just google search for it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] prattjo:
CPU Speed

If you are using Setcpu, set the minimum CPU speed to 245MHz if not try in the CyanogenMod setting to have a minimum speed of 245MHz and see if it helps
[HD2 Android SD Development] Faz20:
Being the stupid person that I am, I had done that, so I just wiped out and did a fresh install, only problem I have now is, I lost my Contacts :/ And there was no "Save to SIM" feature on this so I've lost them, I did get them back however when I restored all the system data but obviously I don't wanna restore all the old stuff again, and I tried Restoring "Contacts 2.3.4" and "Contacts Storage 2.3.4" but I still haven't got them back. This is kinda irrelevant but I kinda need my contacts, so if anyone could help it would be heavily appreciated. Sorry if I'm being stupid or the answer is obvious. Go easy on me :P
[HD2 Android SD Development] cool_g:
I recently started with android on my hd2, It toke me a while to decide which build i should download. I can say i cant be more happy with my choice the build works like a oiled up street fighter :) And i cant say how great full i'am for the effort guys, and giving new life spark to my hd2 sooo Thx very much :)

Btw, might be a stupid question but can the lagg in HD recording be because of low class memory card???

Peace
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Well, backing up and restoring your contact data is the right thing to do. Your contacts should be ported to the new install that way. Don't know why this doesn't work for you, it does work for me everytime.

Do you use backup2sdext?

You could sync your contacts with google and sync them back after a fresh install.

You could search the Android market for apps that specifically save contact data. There are a couple of apps, that do that.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Nope. HD recording on the HD2 is only experimental, that's why it's lagging.

Of course having slow card and running the system from the same medium doesn't help but even NAND builds, that don't use the SD card to run the system, have the same problem.

On the other hand, HD capable devices don't ask for extra fast SD cards and still they record HD just fine.

So no, buying a faster card won't help.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dyval:
Ahaha.. yes, I guess I'm too xcited, thanks man (edited)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Faz20:
@shamez23 I got my Contacts back after re-booting the phone 2 times (weird?) but thanks for your help, appreciate the quick replies very much. Everything is now sorted, enjoying this great build. By the way, I usually turn off the Data Connection and Wi-Fi when I'm not using them, but say if I was to keep them on, would the battery drain real quick? That used to happen before when I kept them on, battery would deteriorate at 1% a minute lol, the battery life was horrendous, anyway, I should stop asking questions.

Everything is now sorted, thank you to everyone who helped and another thanks to the developers, much appreciated :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] MartyLK:
.......................
[HD2 Android SD Development] ayemez:
Just an observation.....

I usually go into build.prop and change the lcd density to 10 dpi lower (I know I'm trying to make myself go blind :eek: ), but with July 22 release, I had to re-mount the loop1 device as read/write in order to be able to edit build.prop. After editing, I re-mounted back to read only, to make sure I put it back to the way I found.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Mh, maybe you already had your contacts synced with google.

It sometimes takes one or two reboots for the phone two properly sync.

Whatever it was, as long as your contacts are back.

Having data turned on can lead to higher drain for several reasons.

The 3g radio needs more power than the 2g one. It needs even more, when you are in an area where reception is flaky because it will use full power and search for a connection all the time.

Then there are apps and widgets that use data syncing with the net, like weather widgets, email app and so on. Check those apps and and make sure they are set to a longer interval or manual sync.

Wifi usually is set to turn itself off, when the phone goes into standby, but go to settings and check if this is really the case.

Even if it is, wifi will turn on again when you take your phone out of standby. It will search for a connection.

That leads to higher drain, but shouldn't be too much. Not as much as you describe.

It is more likely that one of your apps is the reason for the high drain.

Also make sure that you don't leave any app in the foreground before you send your phone into standby. One example would be the media player, when you listen to music. Go back to the homescreen before standby.

You can get a current widget from Android market. It will show you how high the drain is at any given moment.

Also get a task manager that will show you which apps are running.

When you experience ususual high drain, check which apps are running and kill them one after the other to find out which one is the culprit.

There was and maybe still is a bug that lead to high drain after making a call. If the current widget shows a drain if around 60mA after a call, with data and wifi turned off, you are one of the unlucky that still has that issue.

Between 5 and 10mA in standby is normal.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mrchloo:
60ma after call troubleshooting maybe useful to warren n cope.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dumbquestion:
I also saw big drains with patches applied to the 0722, but the patches seemed to work wonders on the 0715 :confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
I remember Warren saying that he is yet to implement any changes in the kernel relating to the proximity sensor. My battery drain too jumps to 68 mA after a call and remains there with the very latest build..... ;) Hoping that this issue will get sorted soon as I have to keep on retreating to an older builder for daily driver. Of course I do test each and every build that leaves the production line..... :cool:

Manual CyanogenMod Updates

I've been meaning to ask this question but would always forget. Let's say that if we're happy with a build (0715 to be specific), how should we go about applying the cyanogemod updates to that build? :confused:

Would this be the correct way to go about it? Since we're using SD Android, I'm not sure if this update process is applicable. Please drop some knowledge on me. Thank you! :D

EDIT:

Can't find "Cyanogenmod Updater" on market. It's not available anymore?

A little more looking reveals the latest cmupdater 5.0.1 from 03/30/2010... So, what to do, boys and girls?
[HD2 Android SD Development] naturesbless:
I was under the impression that any and all cyanogenmod updates will be included with AmeriCanDroid updates. Just update by following directions on post 1.
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
I dont expect you will get much responses to your query. Most of us are happy to leave the task of updating Cyan and cooking fresh roms to Cope and Warren. If all of us were capable of updating then we would not have much use for the original cooks after the first build is released. The experts know how-to but those minded of changing/updating the original roms do it for their own use and do not usually say much about what they have done. I guess its a silent code denoting respect for the original cooks efforts.... ;)

yesterday i installed the new ROM and the fix takes 1-3 seconds

may I ask for a download link for the 0715 build? thanks :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Your questions have already been answered with both sincerity and also some sarcasm (no, don't do the update and let us know how it all worked out). ;)

To be very clear with you... if you're happy with 0715 - leave it alone, and be happy. If you NEED to upgrade... stay within ACA and just do cope & Warren's new builds. Anything else will FUBAR your setup. Want something else? Change it all out and leave ACA for other pastures.
[HD2 Android SD Development] soapbox23:
Thanks for your replies guys. I did set the min CPU speed as you said back with the 0715 build and it still gave me reboots. I never had this problem until builds 0715 and newer.

I also ran chkdsk on my SD and it had no errors. formatted my android partition (other partition is for WP7) and then tried 0722 and it still won't go away. there's no set interval for the reboots but it usually happens when my phone is idle for a long time. I've reverted back to 0705 and haven't experienced a reboot yet. any other help?

You should try funambol.com
[HD2 Android SD Development] rustamg:
Hey just go to FUNAMBOL and download the cab file for your handset . Once you are set with funambol , No matter which platform or set u use , your contacts ,calenders ,pictures etc will be safe up in the clouds and can be easily downloaded on any handset . Benn using it for almost six months and have the same contacts on my blackberry , nokia and hd2 .

Whats best is that it automatically updates the changes in your list that you make , and makes the same changes in all your handsets automatically .
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
well, if you use windows, you could also try to check integrity of both system.ext2 and data.img files - download toporesize and run the command "e2fsck.exe -f <full_path_to_checked_file" from console or similar (e.g. FAR file manager), not much hope here though

P.S. any connection between resets and device temperature indicating possible overheating?
