DSP offers a lot of versatility, it's reasonably full-featured and works pretty well. If sound quality is lacking for you; I think the best upgrade that can be had is the use of better headphones or IEM's. If the transducer/speaker sucks to begin with... how much can you expect an EQ app to improve it? I do use reasonably expensive IEM's (because they make a huge difference).
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
... and don't expect your phone to be a good DMP as I wouldn't expect my DMP to be a good phone...
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
...and I would agree that a quality dedicated device is always best. In lieu of that, the HD2, coupled with good aftermarket IEM's, can serve as a more than respectable DMP. It holds its own. For the absolute purist? Come-on, that's a different world.

Microphone volume

Hello,

The volume of my microphone is very high, is there a way to change it?

Thanx

By the way, I think I'm coming over to the Nand side soon boys..... just got me a standalone TomTom.... the only thing that was really keeping me on Windows Mobile!

Ok I did have a x.xx.51.xx from a prior attempt at upgrading.

Just formatted my card, reflashed TMOU 3.14x and copied extracted the download to SD\Android After running each it's back to a gray map with "powered by AmeriCan Android" on it.

I pulled the battery and went back into settings. Radio version is 2.15.50.14.

Epic post 2k!

Hello my friends! WASSSSSSSSSSSUP!

Tonight I greet you with my 2000th post @ xda.

Thats 333 posts/year over 6 years if you average it out, but ..

most of my posts have been in the last 2 years. <-- useless info.. sorry. :)

I want my 2000th post to be epic.. lol in some way or another, so lets begin.

-there is a new build on its way to the internets as I type this. Look for the first post to change right away here with a new build. its been on the testing shelf for a bit now and ive only had one issue and its been fixed. (thanks evo1rs)

-there are plans for ics in the works so you dont all have to jump ship in search for a tasty treat. (and its way to cold to have ics thursdays, but.. who knows right?) ALL of the work so far, has been done by others, but most closest to us is Arif-Ali. We've got quite the "organization" going and are helping each other out where we can. That said, it will be his build compiled from source, but done to ACA specs. NOW .. so you dont all get to anxious, its not ready yet. The dev stages put it on par with the nexus/bravo ics builds, and its still going to be a while. But .. when its ready for the userbase, you will get it. Then after that, its onto CM9. So.. we arnt going anywhere, as promised.

because you are my #1 sd users, you get your first post update first. :)

thankyou for a great 2000 posts of service and I look forward to many more to come in the future. <3 u xda & android community. no homo.

yours, <-- for realz

su binary updater

The su binary updater started to run after the 12/7 build was installed. Updated to 3.03 from 3.0. beta 2. Also included a modified busybox.

Is that something the forum needs to know about?

Should I now not update busybox?

Cope,

Thanks again for your, and the other devs, continued amazing work on this project. I know I'm probably just being inpatient, but I just wanted to let you know [edit: kernelbase beat me to this :)] that the multiupload download link on the first post is linked to the previous version of the rom 112911 and not the latest version 120711 that you tantalizingly referred to in your latest post. Thanks and keep up the great work!

Ok, so it turns out that I am going to need to get a new phone and I am leaning towards the HTC eVO 4G. Does any one now of a similar ROM that would be available for use on the eVO? I've been with AmeriCanAndroid since I started with android and I really don't want to give it up, but I didn't see one in th eVO area. Any sugesstions of what I should try out?

I look forward to see it, because 112911 build cause me some difficulties with SD card, but I used even older build of AmeriCanDroid for about month and it is the fastest one I ever tested. Only withdraw was little bit unstable camera app.

Short Changelog again. :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Andy, I really appreciate the compliment. Thanks! ...Let me return the favor and suggest you do not buy that brand or the marketing hype associated with it. Whatever your budget is; there's far better sound quality to be had for the same, or more, or less $.

Suggest you do your homework. Have some fun with it... here's two sites; one an enthusiast site, and one a vendor site with a broad product line-up and lots of comparison reviews by both users & staff. I'm sure you'll be able to find your way around. Fwiw, and to be clear... I'm not shilling for the vendor (they're just one of many who are reputable), but they are a good source of info.

1.)www (dot) head-fi (dot) org

2.)www (dot) earphonesolutions (dot) com

Personally, I would stay away from the least expensive offerings of any brand. I favor models from: Westone, Sennheiser, Shure and Audeo. These are personal choices and there are many truly good products from a number of companies... I just wouldn't recommend Beats to a friend.

i guess the filename is wrong, cos the system files unzipped is dated 8th Dec.
[HD2 Android SD Development] corba59:
I have exact the same behavior if I let my HD2 connected to the PC during boot. Unplugging from USB before turning on the device solved this for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
It's always flattering when I get mistaken for evo :)

To clarify evo has produced a long line of excellent bootanims for the build, whereas uzi has spotted the occasional bug and provided some support here and there...

Don't worry about the filename - it is the new build.

Revert to Old Hacked Market 2.3.6

Use Titanium Backup to freeze market updater thus disabling automatic upgrading to version 3.

Also for those having unusual battery drain issues. The culprit (in my case at least) was Email.apk v.2.3.4. I used Root Explorer to delete it (make sure you set RW) and replaced it with Email 2.3.5r1

No more 60mA drains, I get 10mA at the most :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] paul211b:
I can't freeze the version of market place using the free version of titanium backup?

Nope, it won't freeze it. Try antTek app manager (free) from android market
[HD2 Android SD Development] paul211b:
How do I do this? Tried clearing from the settings > applications > market but this did not work.

Had this working using the hacked market but its just auto updated to the new one grrr
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
Yes, that's what I meant. The market works fine at 160 or 240dp, so maybe it's time for a clean install...

[HD2 Android SD Development] VW_Factor:
Last night I picked up my phone and it wouldn't wake up. I hadn't touched it nearly all day. It would not respond to anything.

So I pulled the battery and turned it back on.

Everything through the Windows boot appeared normal. Got into Android and everything is FC'ing every which way. Totally unusable now, with the FC window always popping up.

It was a fresh load with 11.29, Fancy Widgets, Amazon app store, Swype, and Words with Friends. Hadn't gotten to loading much else on it.

Ideas to what happened there? Going to fresh load the 12.7 morning after this load has gotten extremely borked up.

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 AM ----------

Or not. All the download links are for the previous version. :(

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 AM ----------

ahhh.. man.

Formatted and reloaded a fresh 11.29

Now everything on Market is "Not compatible with my device". WTF.. :(

Minecraft PE, Words with Friends... Can't download much of anything.

Headphones

Derailment:

I've spent quite a bit of time looking for good headphones to use because I work in an environment where people are always on the phone and it gets noisy quite alot.

After perusing the markets and testing a bunch of different sets, i ended up buying a set of Skullcandy ear buds. They have really good sound quality and noise reduction for a $15 price tag. Bang for the buck, I couldn't find anything to beat them.
[HD2 Android SD Development] EvilBetty:
Not plugged into USB during boot... tried another SD card. Still having the same problem.

My steps have been:

Load TMOUS 3.14x Official ROM

Format SD Card

Copy Android folder

Launch the two files in order.

Locked on Gray "powered by AmeriCan Android" screen for more that 30 minutes before pulling battery.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shah_vm:

Looking forward to see the new build from you, Thanks for always!!!

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

To enbe Market

open the file "startup.txt"

Edit:

set cmdline "rel_path=Android nand_boot=0 lcd_density=167 gps_zone=us data_size=1024"

e.g.

gps_zone=hk "change to where you are" (like me in hong kong)

icd_density=160 "change to 160" (Market only works on 160 or 240)

l have htc hd2 ewrithing workin good.but kamera.video not;-(((whats problem????
[HD2 Android SD Development] VW_Factor:
back running well with 11.29

Issues sorted.

Unless anyone would know why the phone wouldn't wake up, and pulling the battery and rebooting would screw everything like that..

I think I'll try the next higher speed for "idle" I guess and see if it happens again. Until the new 12.7 version gets a link. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] shah_vm:
i already have my screen lcd density set to 160. i was asking about custom email.apk which does not match my lcd density of 160. so my question was how to make custom email.apk to match my phone lcd density which is 160.

If it was working correctly. Should I be looking at this "powered by AmeriCan Android" screen for the full time, or should some other screen or animation begin while it loads?

ADW Launcher EX Sale

I'm posting this sale item here as standard ADW comes installed on the ACA build. I'm not sure of the other builds, and take care of my own first.

ADW Launcher EX is offered today (12/8) at the android market for ten (10) cents, it normally runs for 3.99. It has more features than the free one, the details can be found by clicking below.

https://market.android.com/details?...wsMSwxLDEwMiwib3JnLmFkd2ZyZWFrLmxhdW5jaGVyIl0.

I couldn't program my way out of a paper bag, but I can usually find great deals. My minuscule contribution to this board.

I have a weird problem with this ROM and I don't even know whether its a problem or not. Whenever notification is triggered, the orange LED glows and keeps on. Usual behaviour should be blinking LED, right? It doesn't blink but keeps glowing on bright amber. Any fix for this?
[HD2 Android SD Development] briteway:
Thanks mate, that's awesome. And thanks for keeping the SD builds alive. There's only a few besides ACA left on the SD Development.

I somehow enjoy them more than NAND and I like keeping a few different builds on my 32GB SD card for a change or show off too. So ICS and CM9 would be good to have in that addition so I could free myself from some older ones but I think I'll end up keeping the most up-to-date CM7 one.

SHoot - was loving this ROM before GPS just stopped working completely

Bummer

Never had any problems with GPS - now it just doesn't work at all - never gets a lock on anything even though GPS status can see up to 9 birds.

I've tried to find some solutions, but they all seem to require I be running a NAND build so I can flash something from Clockwork Recovery.

I'm on T-Mo US, any help would be appreciated but I don't think any existis. I'm about 90% sure the "solution" is another ROM with working North American GPS - sad - I liked me some AmericanAndroid!

Note - just to pre-answer the inevitable 'you should just run NAND' - I can't.

As near-perfect as it is - no Android build is stable enough on the HD2 to rely on when you may have an emergency.
[HD2 Android SD Development] iPAQ 6515a User:
Hmm, sounds like something that happened to me in the past. You need to let it settle down and give GPS up to 30 minutes to get sorted. After that ... no more than 10 secs for a fix.

It worked for me.

And also you can use Faster Fix or ROM Toolbox or LEO GPS Inject to make things speedier

Good luck

stupid question I'm sure, but can you use a data img from one ROM with a different ROM? What about using it with a different phone? I'm going to be switching to a Samsung Galaxy S and i have some info that i want to switch over.

I do use titanium backup and other back up things so will the info follow on to the new phone once i put titanium backup on the new phone? What files will I need to find to transfer?

Sorry that this is a little off topic. I am keeping my HD2 and I plan to keep it with the most updated ACA just for playing. It was my first foray into Android and made it very easy for me to learn, just wish they did some for CDMA :(

battery life of Nand Roms

Is the battery life of Nand Android Roms just the same with Android SD?thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] Spaqin:
@andyvalerie - no, most NAND Android ROMs have better battery life.

Have you tried Onlive? I've heard that it works great on Nexus One, so I thought it will work on HD2 as well... but no, it's extremely choppy and the games are unplayable.

+1 here. Probably the best ACA build to-date.

Just a question, mine sits at 11mA over night. How can I bring it down lower? What do you guys do? I'm running SetCPU (interactive setting), have an alarm clock, calendar, wifi, POP email accounts (x5), gmail, weather.

I'm not sure if these affect the mA's. I turned the wifi off and will see how it goes.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ukdutypaid:
Oddly, I swear to god this is actually the best so far as well. Less reboots and seems a little faster.

On batter, I have absolutely everything switched off and 3g by default (not connected). All wallpapers, everything

Have a gorp through Cope/Warren's FAQ. I found it very useful even if you've been round the houses with the build....

Would it be possible to get the HTC Sense thing from the HTC Sensation on this build?
[HD2 Android SD Development] zark0000:
Thanks man!!

I thought I waited long enough, but followed your suggestion and let it sit for about 35 minutes.

I actually set it so the display wouldn't turn off and the screen wouldn't lock - not sure if that had anything to do with it but it seemed like it would stop trying to get a fix when the screen turned off - I kept it awake manually for a 10, 15 minutes - but for anyone else it wasn't until, as ipaq 6515a user said, I waited over 30 minutes for it to sort out. Now it gets a fix in a little less than a minute which is typical. Huge thanks!!

[HD2 Android SD Development] EvilBetty:
I am totally stumped.

Reflashed to Latest OEM Tmobile ROM

OS Ver 2.5.20181424.0

Rom Version 3.14.531.1

Radio version 2.15.50.14

Have tried both the factory 16gb SD and a brand new 8gb sdhc

Tried formatting both with phone and with updated Windows 7 machine

Hard reset phone multiple times

After starting CLRCAD and then HARET, screen goes to brief microscopic text screen, then sits on this screen indefinitely. I always let it set for over 30 minutes, a couple times a few hours. I've tried this on and off the charger / USB.

After pulling the battery and booting back into windows, there are no new files created in the android folder (data etc).

ANYONE have any other suggestions to try?
[HD2 Android SD Development] stim141:
Try a SD Format Utility not the format that exists in Windows 7 of XP. Here is the one I use:
