Thanks, it is as I suspected then. As I've said before, for me the data connection was/is superb, which is why I was intrigued about the bars not turning green as much as in previous builds - obviously google just having an off day then :) - of course that doesn't happen ;)

Previously people have said that they only turned green when there was a valid data connection, which is why I was confused.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ataf:
Anybody did not created a new data image with 03_08 ? Except me?
[HD2 Android SD Development] RicarduZonta:
Thank you for the frequent updates, thank you for supporting SD builds when most devs turned away from them. Thank you for constantly making this build better and better.

My next donation will be transferred to You.

[HD2 Android SD Development] docent14:
I really don't know what kind of messing cope means.

His script mounts only SECOND PRIMARY partition if it's format is known. If second partition is ext2 ext4 ntfs fat32 fat - it will be mounted for backup.

If W7 second partition is unknown fs - mount will fail and script exits

My swappart looks for FORMATED (before) and SIGNED as swap partition. Only and only then it mkswappin it again and mount with swappines.

In case of w7 user - its enough to provide us logs from restarting your phone - cope's logcat entries will be 'failed' and my will be 'swapping is not set'.

That's all.

Hi, I installed your build from MAR 08 and my partitions are as follows:

1.fat32

2.ext3

3.linuxswap

4.wp7

5. unformated

I couldn't find ... 01shutdown (in /system/etc/shutdown.d).... insted I had 02shutdown and I removed the (!) as described ... is that a problem ?will it do the job for using backup2ext? How do I know it worked ?

wifi tether issue...

I am still experiencing the same issue with wifi tether as on the MAR03 build, it appears to only be UL but now DL. Also my laptop never shows as connected, I remember in a previous build to have gotten a notif when it tried to connect, however nothing now.

Thanks to docents relentless help I learned to log, so here my logcat log where I posted tether related stuff form the last few lines, you can find the same iptables problem (so I think..) that was mentioned few posts earlier:

I//system/bin/iptables( 176): getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory
I//system/bin/iptables( 176): getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory
I//system/bin/iptables( 176): ACCEPT 0 opt -- in eth0 out wl0.1 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
I//system/bin/iptables( 176): getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory
I//system/bin/iptables( 176): getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory
I//system/bin/iptables( 176): ACCEPT 0 opt -- in wl0.1 out eth0 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0

I reinstalled the app and then reinstalled the binaries, still no luck...

thanks geenyous........

I will probably try a new release, but when I tried to check the battery consumption using the widget you suggested with a fresh boot, this is what i saw........

not less than 200mA (no WIFI, no Data & no GPS)

build info: GRH78C

Running Applications at the time:

Settings

Button Savior

LED me know

Market

CMStats

Android keyboard

Android Live Wallpapers

Also, I did not quite understand this point of yours...... Make sure you press a hardware button when haret is loading (at least this is what I learned).
[HD2 Android SD Development] docent14:
Please wait for another build - there is version 3.x which I tested and it works!

Sorry for the late report, but RTL (Mar 9 Release) is not any better than RTL in the previous releases; while Arabic is from right to left; however, letters are sometimes garbled and not properly connected.

what wm6.5 ROM are you using?

Try mine, works perfect and is very stripped down, only need it for 2 apps and to load android.

By pressing hw button I mean that when you load into Android (try Exceller Multiple Build Loader -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=737001 make sure that you press any hardware button on the phone (I usually press <-), so that the lights of the buttons are lit while haret starts...

wifi tether issue...

Ok, still not working, same iptables msg like in the previous build (MAR08).

FYI, I used the same data.img from MAR08.

I logged all I have done - started both wifi apps, reinstalled the binaries, reinstalled the apps, made some changes to the settings (with and without encryption, DNS settings, LAN settings, changed channel, etc).

I have sent the log to docent...

The rest seems to work really well (havn't tested much yet though), also data appears to be solid!

Why devs don't make a torrent of their build? I think we would download way faster... I have 100/10mpbs internet speed yet I'm downloading 15mins because mirrors are too far from Slovenia:o

Just a thought... I don't think you'll actually change the "uploading system" :p
[HD2 Android SD Development] orangekid:
you really can't wait 15 mins?

torrents are annoying because they update the ROMs so much, then we need constant seeds....

time to go to the 9

so I ran the 030811 build for a couple of days all was good but the bugs everyone else had (data was the worst). other then that it was wicked quick.

I have the time to put on the 030911 build so here goes. I really appreciate you guys doing this build I use it as an every day build and this is my work/personal phone so, yeah you guys are kicking ass and like I said a few days ago as soon as I get a decent paychek Ill be donating cause you guys hardcore deserve it.

enough with the mushy sappy **** Im downloading and testing :D

GPS issue ?

When GPS enabled, with 0309, the notification icon choosen for GPS in CM settings doesn't appear in the upper notification bar and the fix is'nt working....(all FAQ settings concerning GPS were well country oriented...).

Am'I alone ?
[HD2 Android SD Development] prinzipal:
i updated yesterday to 0803 - complete new install. i noticed that my hd2 is getting very hot - even in standby. i upgrade now to 0903 and keep data.img - hope it's getting better then.

Thanks, I've been partitioned with wp7 since initial release of wp7 and never had problems,I knew it was in your sign about more partitions lol what was I thinking! ?!?

No data drop yet today,showing hsdpa without letting up on tmo build. Only issue so far is one random restart,no biggie probably still breaking things in. Also wifi tether..as already noted today by others, not pulling up anything with app in build, reinstalled the other tether apk. And I'm able to connect,but no data going through tether..its actually on right now as I post this from the build! I noticed the cm7 tether notification is active alongside the APk, could they be cancelling eachother out somehow? I wouldn't expect the stock to work at all on SD build,just the aftermarket ones
[HD2 Android SD Development] JLowe:
Wifi tethering doesn't work also not for me with the new version, tried static ip, but won't connect, anyone can share how he gets it to work?
[HD2 Android SD Development] newbomb:
Did you try the fix in the FAQ section from the first post? That worked for me.

Windows Tethering applications crashes

Symptoms:Application doesn’t work/ Crashes - Force Close

Builds:030111

Solution 1:1. navigate to /system/app find the wifithether.apk and click it to reinstall it.

2. after it has been reinstalled open the wifi tether app.

press the middle hard key (menu key)

choose settings

press the middle hard key (menu key) again

choose re-install binaries/configs

exit tether app

go back into it.

//fixed by copenhagen
[HD2 Android SD Development] jinsoku3g:
I don't believe there is a fix yet. There was a workaround but its not applicable to this build since its a different problem with tethering in this build
[HD2 Android SD Development] Arkou3000:
Same here ,if i enable gps from settings ....i don't have the notification icon
[HD2 Android SD Development] welki1979:
The Wireless tether app doesn't work for me and force closes....

BUT tethering works fine if you goto the settings for Wi-Fi and configure and enable wi-fi tethering there.

As a shortcut get 'WiFi hotspot Settings' shortcut from the market. It's part of the OS so no need for other apps.

Oh...I'm running this build on a FAT32 partition dual booting with WP7, on a 16GB sandisk class 4 card (formatted at 64kb clusters). No other partitions, in case anyone needs to know.
[HD2 Android SD Development] ataf:
my HD2 needs in standby more than 100mAh, so the battery is 0% within hours

i just did a new data.img

can not belive that this is the fault, I will report tomorrow if battery life is bad again, then i will go back to 03_05

i din't installed any prog since 03_03

i do not belive that the data img is the reason for this high battery drain
[HD2 Android SD Development] JLowe:
thank you for the help, but I read the faq and tried already the fix, but doesn't work for me.

sometimes I get a connection to the tethering wifi but then no data - nothing happens

Perhaps someone can describe it in more details how it works for him (static ip, open, wpa2)......

GPS seems also not to work for me with gps-status 3.7 and downloading agps-data but waited for 10 minutes but don't get any coordinates.

So far all is well with the 030911 build I had a little bit of data issues in the am (i think it was due to ****ty coverage). Once I got to the east valley every thing has been fantastic. The only thing that might become an issue fit me is the battery drain I ha enter figured out what's causing it but when I do ill update...

FWIW I have gone back to March 1 build due to perceived higher battery drain.

[HD2 Android SD Development] nygmam:
I am having a strange issue, I used to be able to access the android market from my web browser (http://market.android.com). While I can still access the Market, it no longer recognizes that I have an android phone. Every time I try to install an app on to my phone, it tells me no android phones are associated with this account, and to try another account. I know this used to work on all February builds, I didn't try it on the older March build, but I just did on the March 8th, and now it is not working. Is this hapening to anyone else? any ideas on how to fix this?

I will also add, My phone seems to be randomly rebooting, every so often I take it out of my pocket, and to my suprise, I am back in WM 6.5.x.... Never happened before, and it is a new data.img file
[HD2 Android SD Development] Straynart:
Hum…I was a bit too speed in my feedback. I had a small data issue.

But I can say that the data is more stable.

And something else, in a subway station where I never have reception, with this ROM version, I'm now able to receive and make phone call. =]

Thanks again !

Just moved from NAND build to a 3/09 SD build, and its great to see SD build so smooootthhh :D

However I encountered a data drop within 3 hours of use :(

Also I don't know if you guys have been having this issue or not..but notification light has been acting kind of strange, the green glows after I reboot the phone, the only way to turn it off, is put it on charger for a sec and wait it to turn amber then disconnect the charger...

Also when I put the phone in airplane mode...Amber light turned on...with no way to turn it off without charger..turning the airplane mode off once again make LED green..:(

wifi tether people.

there is a new version of teh wifi tether app. v3 stored in either

/sdcard/android/androidapps

OR

/sdcard/backup/app

you just have to run this manually and install the wifi tether app if it doesnt work properly for you by default.

docent and others have already confirmed that it is working.

people who are getting ANY type of random reboot.

1. update your apps in the market.

2. rom manager -> fix permissions

no more random reboot.

gps..... works? does it not.... it should.. nothing has changed, it worked for me, AND i triple checked to make sure all the correct gps files were there before uploading the build.. so.... what the?:D:D:D

Using your 180 lcd density and I unchecked compatibility mode + rebooted. However, a few of the apps were still not full screen and only took up a portion of the whole screen. Is there a fix for this, or will I need to switch to 240 (I don't want to :() in order for the app to be full screen? Thanks dude, please reply to my post as soon as you can.

Running 030911 with previous data.img

Occasionally I get this when trying to go to Market. All the time while in one spot. Retry does not work, but reboot does fix it for a while.
[HD2 Android SD Development] bteljuice:
Previous meaning 030811 or before that?

Because the guys did State that as of 030811, YOU NEED a new data.img
[HD2 Android SD Development] anap40:
Well according to your screenshot you have very weak 3G and wifi signal in that one spot - that could be the problem
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
what apps specifically are giving you this problem.. cause i have 0 apps that do this.

typically really old apps do this.. ones that no longer are being supported by their developers.

so perhaps you should look for an updated version of whatever app your having issues with?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Mafioso:
ohh thanks for the update....didn't know devs have a comprehensive faq..

Anyway LED me know isn't really a solution...it consumes way too much battery for flashing a notification..normally 120mAh
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/3-kingdoms-td/com.joymasterrocks.ThreeKTD

This app, I'll update more later, but this one is bugging me.

UPDATE: When I switch to 240, the game is full screen.

Also, have you heard of MiniGore? It doesn't even startup on this build. Please fix this problem, or my problem. lol This game is so addicting, I kinda can't live w/o it.

btw, after switching to 240, how do you revert back to 180?
[HD2 Android SD Development] jinsoku3g:
try connecting and disconnecting your charger, ive never needed led me know as this solves the problem for me and another a page ago had the same results from the charger, granted if i goto airplane mode or reboot, ill have to do it again, but saved the batt drain from the app..
[HD2 Android SD Development] jinsoku3g:
just a little fyi, on these newer builds i havent had to do compatability with anything, i get the small lockscreen but after first reboot is gone.
[HD2 Android SD Development] jinsoku3g:
no luck with this, tried multiple times, seems like the app is working, but never puts out a signal.. hope its not device specific.. never had problems before. ill try putting another fresh build in, maybe something funked up
[HD2 Android SD Development] copenhagen:
lol

edit the file in a text editor

/sdcard/android/240buildprop/root/system/build.prop

find the line ro lcd density=240

and change it to =180

save it.

then follow the same copy root past into /android/HERE proceedure you used to switch it to 240.

and to be perfectly honest with you... any app that is still showing small screen needs an update from its dev.

just look at how many apps have been updated to not do that... i would definetly email the dev of that program and tell him to get his a$$ in gear.

done.

[HD2 Android SD Development] jinsoku3g:
Hey Jin, I was having the same pro..wait a minute, we're the same person!

I just wiped the sd and and reinstalled the whole build, seems to be working fine on tethering now, I'll know for sure when I get in better coverage tomorrow, but I connected to it just now with my tab and comp (couldnt test data but the connection was there) so hopefully it was just something that nagged up upon loading yesterday.. i use a new data.img every time.. i dont use any apps other than xda and voicemail so it "aint no thang" to get a clean build each time. i mainly use it for the tethering HA!

- do you have also data connection lost with a NAND rom?

Thanks in advance for your feedback
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
LOL That was ballin.

What's your explanation for the apps that don't even start? Minigore was an amazing game on the Desire builds but it doesn't seem to start on AmericanAndroid. It starts for a second, then force closes.

Thanks man, for your clarification. I like the smaller fonts, personally, and was freaking out when the game was all messed up. Now I know the reason why.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
Sorry for double posting. But I wanted to add that I have created a sense-like theme for this build. For people who want the htc sense look with the gb speed, hit me up and I'll post some files and instructions.

In addition, I have found a battery indicator to replace the battery icon, that way you'll know your % without having to download useless and space-consuming apps.
[HD2 Android SD Development] PlayStation:
Please upload your works we test.......
[HD2 Android SD Development] Anthonayy:
It's based on launcher pro, and because MCCM's gb sense build is very unclear and in a way unstable (from my tests), I made an even truer sense build than the one he came up with. However, the instructions are somewhat complicated. I'll post this sometime tomorrow. In the meantime, please wait. :)

P.S.- It's not true HTC Sense, it's a very close imitation though.

I have a tmob hd2 (leo1024) running WP7 NAND and the march 9 build of americanandroid with radio 2.15.50.14. I am in Australia and my carrier is Optus.

I have tried all the tips in the faq regarding gps issues however I am unable to get a fix even after 15+minutes. the icon simply flashes and a lock is never achieved.

Does anyone have anything else that I could try? I often rely on my phone in the car for navigation and would very much like this functionality back!!

GPS Icon

Hi

I moved to the 03/09 build last night.

The GPS icon comes on when I start my NDrive Navigation.

I tested my GPS this morning and it works fine. It took less than 2minutes to find a fix.:D (I edited the startup.txt file to my country code za)

My battery also seems to be lasting longer. Only lost 5% during the night.:) On the previous build I lost 9%.

Also like the battery % icon in the notification bar.:)

Thank you.

Very good build. Fast and stable.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dark alex:
Is this version a bit laggy sometimes or is it my update?

For example when I click the Launcher Icon it lasts about one or two seconds to open the app menu.

If I press menu-button (Windows) on homescreen it also lasts between one and five seconds - but not every time
