Watchdog will show how much data an app is using - it's under the CPU menu, but can't you just do a bit of digging with a file manager to find the culprit?
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
Ok, so open superuser and make sure Terminal Emulator is in the list of allowed apps.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
just dropped a new kernel on Copenhagen.

Testing. We may release again tonight.
[HD2 Android SD Development] prashanthm:
wowww! great news..., I can't wait to try the new build...

Thanks for all the work......
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Thank you Warren. Would it be ok if you released the kernel independently. I trust that we dont have to download a whole 105 MB of the latest rom. If you could kindly upload the kernel for testing will be much appreciated.... :p
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
:)

feels good to contribute again.

here are the things changed in the kernel:

bluetooth 60mah fix(thx tytung and chastarin)

updated battery parameters temp reading(thx linux-on-wince team)

Added 2300mah extended battery support(thx Arne182)

fixed AC charging on boot and cleanups(thx Markinus)

Soon will be making more changes.....more of my own actual changes. looking to get t-mobile wifi calling going.

but I may have to make ril wrapper top priority.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
standby.

so long as you know what your doing..... :) i'll provide the kernel files.

[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Kernel Files? Warren what I had in mind is THE KERNEL. I meant the zImage which we can drop in the Android rom folder to replace the current Kernel 3.06. Sorry I would not touch the files until the final product is compiled and finalized. :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
it is compiled.

but it's the zimage and the ko modules that go with it. :-P

Video recording issues again..

Hey, first of all thanks for the tip about fasterfix and gpsstatus, i'll try them in a few minutes and let you guys know if that helped.

Now for the most annoying thing ever.. this was happening to me in the previous Americanandroid builds also- every time i use the camcorder and shoot something longer than 29 seconds (i think it only happens then but i think i remember it happening to me once when shooting a shorter video) it will crash the camera App, the screen will keep showing the feed from the camera but an fc message will appear, once i close the camera the sound will not work anymore, the phone (call) will not respond, apps will not open, and ill have to reboot.

Strangest thing.. and really pissess me off..

Anyone have a suggestion? Any one experiencing this?

tnx
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Thank you. Will start testing shortly. I am so excited that my high battery drain will finally be solved. I have been having terrible battery drain and was forced to use Rafpigna kernel with this build for the last one month or so. We love you guys :p

I was away from home last weekend when I was having battery issues. Now when I am home I notice that I have 3G/H connection all the time, where last weekend I had G connection and often no (cellular) connection.

It just occured to me that maybe the phone had to "work" all the time to keep connections up?

Now I am just looking at drain percentages of:

07:00 100%

08:00 97%

10:16 90%

No phonecalls and connected with Wifi, out of sleep between 11 - 13 mA

Things look good again....:):D
[HD2 Android SD Development] habibjamil:
It is not.
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Thank you Cope. Now I dont have to mess with Warren's new Kernel myself. But please throw an eye into the Upload direction before you start catching the 40 winks..... ;)

14mA with BT on sounds just perfect! Will now remove my BT headphones from their pouch. :cool:
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
just find the superuser apk in system/app and click it and reinstall superuser.

then goto the market and see if ther's an update for it. install that.

first post edited.

GPS issue

Hello Guys,

Love this smooth build and use it , but I am unable to fix the GPS issue. I tried fasterfix I change it to UK it goes back to Asia again. I tried manually editing the gps.conf file using an editor, but I am getting permission denied.

I have super user installed and updated. Can anyone help me out please?
[HD2 Android SD Development] mdskrzypczyk:
Thank you for taking the time to send Mr the huge response and looking that up. I was posting from the hd2 so I couldn't search the thread (unless I haven't discovered the feature yet). As I type this I'm testing the end button to lock and unlock and it is working now. I used the quick reboot app he spoke of to get it to shut down correctly the first time and now all seems well...except, there's just a delay from when I hit the end key until it actually reveals the lockscreen. And sometimes the lockscreen wont display but the backlight will light up and then turn off as though it timed out. Again I'm posting from my phone so I can't search for it. :( is this also known?
[HD2 Android SD Development] ljw666:
Finished redownloading the updated version and now everthing is working OK.

Many thanks to AmeriCanAndroid for this wonderful ROM.
[HD2 Android SD Development] DanijasDub:
I know that , but changelog for new build says----> Current Release:

04/18/11 - UPDATE:

-cyanogenmod changes from 04/13 to 04/18 -- (sorry those that got the early 18 release the following was not in it... redownload )

That's why i am asking is CM team fixed this issue !!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
A missing pixel line? Really?

If a stupid missing line of pixels is all that matters to you, I don't know what to say.

I'm appalled that you waste your and our time and spam this thread with such a thing.
[HD2 Android SD Development] chtioub:
Hi,

I have read tuto from americandoid about partitioning SD card.

I understand all :D but I don't understand how should we use it after.

I mean : Do I need to copy Android folder to the master partition and all other data to the second ?

When I install an application, I should transfer to SD ?

What is the best way to have better performance.

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] DanijasDub:
I'm just asking is it fixed or not???, I didn't said oh how bad it is!!! Or I'm not able to use this rom without it!!! Why nobody fix this???? Or how can i fix this???? If you don't have an answer SHUT UP and stop sending "smart spam answers" yourself... OK.

P.S. This is best Android rom and I'm really appreciate what guys are doing to have this build running on OUR Devices.

Thanks... You all were very helpfull!!!!
[HD2 Android SD Development] dark alex:
Make an update and you will see. In the time you answered two times here you could have updated, too.

Or look into cyanogenmod changelog.

Btw: I know the answer but will not tell you for insulting us.

You must understand this question is really annoying as its recurring every few pages. Why can't you just find it out on your own or ignore it...

chtioub, SD-Ext is there for backing up apps you install. you do not need to do anything.

Just shut the phone down via shutdown function from time to time. You should anyways NEVER pull battery when phone is running (first of all there can be damage to your data and further now the backup will run on shutdown.

use your card as if there was nothing changed. It will all happen behind the scenes.
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Guys please dont fight. But surely DanijasDub having seen there is an update which includes a whole new Warren kernel should your priority really be a mere pixel line? You know you sound like "unless the pixel line has been sorted I will not update!" Get serious buddy. Download the rom and check the pixel line for yourself. :mad:
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
Goddammit, I just updated to 413 and this seems real nice. I have pretty bad battery drain right now. In 6 hours on standby it went from 100 - 44%. I used to get like max 10% drainage. I will keep watch and also see if updating helps.

Can anyone reproduce the issue where if you try to preview any attachment in the gmail app, quickoffice crashes, and brings u right back to the gmail app?
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Have you seen todays update? There's a new kernel in there..... Testing 18/4/11 now. I had similar problem of battery drain with 13/4 I had to downgrade to 11/4 so I will be very happy if 18/4 sorts the battery thing. ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Rooster100:
OK this is serious- almost as serious as the missing Angry Birds LED pixel conspiracy...

I was loading this on to a mate at works phone when he asked: "What is Amfrican Android?" Thinking he had developed a sudden speaking disorder I asked politely "What the ****?"... But then I looked at the boot screen- he was RIGHT!

Graphics look unreal but the text looks like AMFRICAN android! As in Am- Freakin - Android!

Actually that sounds cool. AM-FREAKIN-ANDROID. Forget I ever mentioned this, let us not speak of this again.
[HD2 Android SD Development] asmd6230:
thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

looking forward to further updates. :)

in another bit of news: (4/13/11)

- updating the facebook app causes FC. i uninstalled the updates rebooted and it works again.

- battery is touch and go, it can be so well behaved and at other times drains very quickly. i cant say whats doing it, but the erratic behavior is present. just need to keep an eye out. (i keep data with push email on, all else off)

-wifi has been erratic, it will connect and yet occasionally poor to no data. on/off or a reboot fixes it. tried with two different routers (belkin and a ddwrt linksys). the wifi strength indicator also shows lower signal strength than it would with other devices within the same range. just my observations folks.

will update to latest and report.

regards,

asmd.
[HD2 Android SD Development] benpaddlejones:
Hey guys what app (or have I missed something in settings) do you use to find the battery mah? Just curious.

[HD2 Android SD Development] bigx86:

But i have 2 issues with it. First when i try to videochat on Yahoo messenger, the sound come trought the speakers instead of the earphones and the app and the phone freezes and the app crashes after 30 sek to 1 minute or i cant close the conversation and i cant change the volume.... and i need to reboot the whole phone cause of instability.

Thanks again man.

registered on mobile network but no data connection

hi,

i'm just wondering if anyone is having the same problem of not having any internet connection even though it says "registered on the network":

1. I have enabled the "data enabled"

2. then i have selected the right mobile 3g network which i'm subscribed to and it says "registered on network". (my 3g is working in windows mobile)

3. I try to connect using the browser but it says "no internet connection "

i have windows mobile 6.5 installed (artemis v57) as well and my 3g network is working find on wm without any problems.

If i use the wifi, the internet connection has no problem, it seems that i can't connect to the 3g network. I've done some research on this, mainly pointing to changing the apn, but my apn list is empty. anyways to modify my apn? or is there any other ways to solve this? any help is appreciated
[HD2 Android SD Development] orangekid:
make sure you have the correct APN
[HD2 Android SD Development] lukasmail:
how do u modify the apn?

when i click on the apn, the apns list is empty..

is there any other way to set it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
The list shouldn't be empty but since yours is, just create a new apn. Push the windows button, when you are inside the empty apn list.

You'll probably find the correct apn settings for your provider, when you put in the provider name, apn and android in the google search bar.
[HD2 Android SD Development] lukasmail:
found it... (after hours of reading)

previously posted by copenhagen:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9099749&postcount=629

to change these settings: Goto settings,wireless &network,mobile network, access point name. Hold down middle button and add new apn :D

it's working fine now. cheers!
[HD2 Android SD Development] lukasmail:
thank you all for your help ... shame,just noticed your post after i found it... :D

I have been testing this great rom today, so far so good...BUT...

Also, my notification LED is stuck on solid green permanently?

Yikes, read the FAQ before you get scolded. :eek: Anyway, just install LEDmeknow from Market and you should be fine.

GPS-wise: Faster Fix and GPS Status from Market. Get 'em!

[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Could be your SD card.

Remember, the system is running from your SD. If the card isn't fast enough, reading from it for the system and writing to it for the camera might just be too much.

Or there is something wrong with the installation. Reformating the SD card and installing the build again, with a fresh data image, might be a solution.

To make sure it's not some app you are using, that is causing the problem, try the camera before you restore your apps and settings.

Kernel I.D

If you have the newest build, what does your phone display in Settings/About Phone/Kernel?

"2.6.32.15-gc30ecc4-dirtyroot@warren-destop#2" is what I have for the 4182011 build. I thought I'd see something like "AmCanAndroid r4.18" but I didn't so just want to verify with you guys.

I couldn't connect to the router (hidden SSID) at work even after resetting the router and and reboot my phone. I'll check it out and update later. Everything seems smooth and fast as always. Thanks Cope and Warren! :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
Yours is appearing correctly. I'll make an effort to standardize my versioning here soon.

As a side note....

Check out my new Android Avatar. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] clarkg:
I've had the same thing happen to me two or three times, but it's not consistent. Not sure about the length thing... I'll try it again to be sure.
[HD2 Android SD Development] newbietruly:
Thanks for the quick confirmation, Warren! I wonder if that's how you really dress in real life. :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android SD Development] see_u_then:
Thanks for the update.

One problem though - at work we use wifi network with 802.1x authentication. I could connect to this network without any issues using Apr 13th build (or any prior build), but with the Apr 18th build, it wouldn't even see this network (keeps saying network not in range). I double-checked and my wpa_supplicant.conf is correct.

Rebooted into Apr 13th build and I could connect to the wifi network again so the issue seems to be with the Apr 18th build. Anybody else having similar issue?
[HD2 Android SD Development] trakcnik:
Can not connect to WiFi with hidden SSI

Weird, with [APR18] version I can't connect to my WiFi with the same setup. With version -2 it was flawlessss… :confused: Trying to reinstall once more.

4/18 seems to drain my entended battery a lot quicker now. I took it off the charger 40 mins ago and havent done anything with it and now its down to 91% already. I'll try rebooting and see how that goes
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
hahaha sometimes I do! As pictured below, though now my hair is very short and i rock the 5 o'clock shadow. took the tips from my android avatar hahaha
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
hmmmm.

will talk to cope later, wanna make sure he didn't forget to slip something in before i start going through the kernel looking for something i may have missed. quite the possibility though since I hadn't touched my source for a while I simply restarted with what I had on git.
[HD2 Android SD Development] see_u_then:

Is the included wifi teather program worth using or is there something better?
[HD2 Android SD Development] mangamannetje:
Thank you for all your great work! Really love the speed/ looks of this build!

Basically everything is working for me. The only thing is the camcorder. I am able to make pictures ( although images are mirrowed in vertical positions). As soon as I switch to cam the app stops unexpectedly...

Any suggestions?
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
You've asked that several times, but either noone else has a problem with it, they are not using gmail or they can't be botherd to answer.

I'm not using gmail but if it's that important to you, I'll try. What kind of file are we talking about?

Are you using the quick office app that comes with the build or the payed version?

have let cope know just so he can check if its something on the builds end. i'm leaning towards the direction that we began maybe using something we shouldn't.

Thank you!
[HD2 Android SD Development] dark alex:
Whyever it was working ONCE in one build (after reinstall it was no longer working) AdHoc is finally still broken.

Cope and me are currently working on that.

And warren...

What the **** did you do? You are now responsible for

HTC dieing out due to less transactions as there will

not be so many batterys sold :D

Man the new kernel is noticably better in battery drain as any before!

Very good work!
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
just a heads up alex, as your working with cope. let him know that the wifi tether standalone app makes a ad-hoc network instead of a full wifi router network(usually shows as a full wifi router to my carpc) and didn't recognize any clients I was connecting to it with(access control supposed to show). as a side note, it is having a problem when i try to reinstall the binaries, regarding installing the dnsmasq. i solved this dnsmasq error by running the rom manager permissions fix. haven't tried connecting the car back since "successful" reinstall of binaries.

the internally build in hotspot(which normally does adhoc), i thought i heard ya'll fixed at some point, and it's erroring out completely as it was before.

i'll have to look into the exact perms rom manager applies, our builds should be mocking it 100% with regards to the stuff rom manager touches.
[HD2 Android SD Development] orangekid:
WiFi tether solution

use this one instead, works perfect for me.

http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk

I too was having problems with the one the ROM came with.
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
Thank you shamez. I really was going to start politely PM'ing people if they could if I didn't get a response. Basically I'm trying to use the one that came with the Rom. Last time I asked someone if it worked with pdf files and they confirmed it didnt. I found a work-around by using adobe reader.

But any office document file that uses quick office, crashes when attempting to preview it in the gmail app. I wouldnt mind just downloading it and opening it locally with quick office... which does work. But there is no download option, just preview. I was able to test this by using usb cable to transfer the file.

So to test. Send yourself a word doc or excel doc and see if you can open it. I used both .docx and .doc neither worked.
