Does anybody have a download link for that build? I would really like to have a rock stable build for everyday use (esp. Bluetooth) and try the newest versions on a second SD Card.

Regards

Achim
[HD2 Android SD Development] nvandenbosch:
Very nice build indeed. However, I have the problem with the missing SMS messages after reboot. I managed to correct this with the exception I can't use the ext3 partition anymore.

So is there any way to use the ext3 partition without losing the SMS messages?

Thanks!

Joke

ive been following this thread for quite sometime now and when i saw the post I was just like...ok no big deal. i honestly have about 4 builds with full data img ready to use and although i had issues with the most recent I just went back to one of my older may builds that runs really well.

a joke is a joke. some find it funny and others not so much but honestly its just a phone and in the end as even I have decided that my HD2 is soon to be replaced by an actual Android phone...either HTC Sensation or moving to Sprint and getting an EVO. Change is always good and I love my HD2 to pieces. even has held up after a plunge in the toilet! but i know I need to get a phone that is designed for android and will run a stable version even if it is stock.

either way i see not much harm done. im just glad I saved older good working builds from this thread to work with. i cant thank these guys enough for creating this build and making it a daily use for me. as long as there are builds to test I will continue to until I decide on my next phone!

Thanx Cope, Warren...etc..

[HD2 Android SD Development] Histrument:
This might sound silly, but I changed (in winmo)

HKLM-->System-->GDI-->Drivers-->BPP = 32

and all stability issues I had with latest build cleared. Performs so well disabled wallpaper hack; and of course now netflix looks as it should. Setting 24 bpp brought some stability improvement, but still had intermittent non-responsive touch and FC issues. 32 bpp cleared up everything (radio even works better).

*Thanks for keeping me from going out today and buying a sensation.
[HD2 Android SD Development] geenyous:
Pardon my ignorance, but what does this setting do?
[HD2 Android SD Development] globalgpj:
FYI, everyone;

The following info was taken from XDA member, Drkfngthdragnlrd post:

BPP = bits per pixel

"The HD2 only has a 16 Bit color display. Unlike most people think, Windows Mobile 6/6.5/6.5.X DOES support 24/32 Bit Color, it's an hardware/performance issue. I have already posted a blog on an official MS site stating this."

NOTE:

4-bits 16 (Standard VGA)

8-bits 256 (Super VGA, indexed color)

16-bits 65,536 (High Color)

24-bits 16,777,216 (True Color)

32-bits 16,777,216 (True Color + alpha channel)

15-bits 32,768 (Option on some earlier display adapters)
[HD2 Android SD Development] Histrument:
I've always doubted the 16-bit limit on the hd2; even if you adjust the bpp to 24, reboot and stay in winmo, you will see improvement in video color, sharpness, etc... it just made me have to soft-reset more often. But in android 32 bpp is awesome, I haven't had to reboot my phone in two days... like I have a real android. I don't understand the technical aspects, but this setting carries over in the android boot and fixed all my issues with the build.

Can someone with clout verify this, please?
[HD2 Android SD Development] geenyous:
:D

got this far too, but dont understand the implications it has on us running Android, especially how setting it to a "wrong" setting may help.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Histrument:
Per webopedia:

"In graphics, a portion of each pixel's data that is reserved for transparency information. 32-bit graphics systems contain four channels -- three 8-bit channels for red, green, and blue (RGB) and one 8-bit alpha channel. The alpha channel is really a mask -- it specifies how the pixel's colors should be merged with another pixel when the two are overlaid, one on top of the other. "

Even if the HD2 is limited to 16-bit display, the extra info in the alpha channel tells pixels how to interact better, improving perceived resolution.

I believe the graphics allocation in the ACA build is 32 bpp, so perhaps it fixes the issues because the winmo display is in sync with the droid os display? If we could skip winmo this probably wouldn't help, but it truly does.

WTF situation

i plugged in my phone (via ANDROID SD) to the computer to transfer files... i selected the "USB Storage" option and NOW when i boot windows mobile (NAND) the device freaks out... the volume keeps on decreasing...

i tried restoring the stock rom but the problem still exists...

i've even tried loading windows phone 7 in the NAND.. but the problem exists here as well

i know i made a mistake but there is no instruction or anything... can this be fixed anyhow?

[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
hey folks,

i'm alive.

figure i owe an update.

cope may be falling back to an earlier version of the kernel for a build or two.

i've come to a pivotal moment in my college career. i have two accelerated math courses, and the first ones final exam is tomorrow afternoon. i MUST get a B in both of these courses so that I may be admitted to the business school and continue working towards my bachelors in MIS. this is a big deal.

i hope that nobody will flame me for this, or simply walk away from ACA because of this. just like every one of us developers, some things must ALWAYS come first. in this case my education must be the foremost of my priorities.

with that said, i'm sure copenhagen will give you all a very stable build, minus some of the advancements made in the latest kernel releases. when i get back to business, i will be rolling back a number of updates and we will be beginning an intense testing phase as i roll each update in individually. this is a slow process, but ensures that one change amidst many will not leave our devices behaving weirdly.

i hope you all understand. :)

Good to hear we are going back to a stable kernel for now. I dont mind to wait a bit longer before we get the new speed kernel :) I totally agree on your plan to introduce new things one by one. It will take a bit longer but can detect bugs faster.

I'm looking forward to your new kernels but for now good luck with your study!

Amen to that!

Exam tips

Warrren, some tips that made me pass my exams almost all at first try:

- start with the question that gives you the most points, then do the one that gives the second most and so on

- if you dont know an answer, skip the question and do it at the end, when you completed the rest. Dont want to hang too long over one question when there would be another one you would easily know and take home those points

- first intuiton is almost always the best, you shouldnt change any answers unless you are absolutely sure they are wrong

Its quite trivial, I know. But I was still amazed when talking to others at the university how few are actually doing it that way, so I thought I'd share. Most really want to start at q1 and then go on, completely irrational...

And another tip, although that might be too late for the first exam already, learning before you go to sleep is scientifically proven (my gf has a masters degree in psychology) to be very efficient. Your brain strengthens the required paths in your sleep.

That said, all the best! If your only half as good in maths as you are in kernel coding then I dont see any problems ;)

[HD2 Android SD Development] edding7:
yes, sometime i had that problem. I don't know the source of the problem.

The only way thats works for me, to come back to 5-8ma on standby is:

1. Discharge battery and full charge 100% on WM6.5

2. Format SD and make a fresh install.

The unique kernel that doesn't do this for me is hastarin 5.6

32 bit

Its not 32 bit, I have yet to see what that setting really does. I for one do not notice any difference. Still all those ugly gradients all over and from that other thread featured some posts above you can read that the screen of the HD2 is really only 16bit and I really doubt that it has an effect on us running android what we set there.

So in short, dont worry. :D

[HD2 Android SD Development] Histrument:
A good way to notice the display improvement is to launch netflix under 16 bpp, then 32 bpp. Under 16, the splash screen is a reddish orange; but with 32, it is a vibrant fire-engine red. I notice right from the ACA boot as i can almost (if i had more than 1-2 seconds) read the writing in the upper left corner, and when the robot dances, his arms literally look like candy.

Just as HDTV improved pic quality on an old school, low resolution color TV, this improves quality on our beloved HD2.

Here it isn`t,

re-wakeup is very hard, must press hardwarebuttons about hundred times till display shows the unlocker. Only hardware lights go on when pressing single time a hardware button.

This is since the version 21.2 and in 24.2 c too. I use standard edition in germany,

please give us a fix

Yes tamirl, no black screen in later Boots After entering pin-code.

Great job, Copenhagen.

I just installed release FEB24c, and the issue about loosing my settings after reboot

are now fixed. I've tried with the alarms, and widgets on main screen, its OK now.

I still will do some more testing this afternoon, and let you know about later.

Again, thanks for the work and the energy you've put in to resolve this issue, and

sorry if I pushed you a little hard ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] maverick.bg:

uninstalling button saviour

OK, I tried it, and agree that this is tricky.

However, I managed to completely remove Button Saviour from my system, and here is how I've done it :

1. in Settings/Applications, first stop the app, then uninstall

2. shutdown and returned to WinMo, and deleted SWKey11.apk from folder Android/AndroidApps on the SD card.

3. rebooted in Android : OK, you're right, the app is still there, thus continue with following

4. again in Settings/Applications, first stop the button saviour app, then uninstall

5. shutdown

6. reboot a second time in Android

Hoora, this time Button Saviour did not re-appear.

Just to be sure, I rebooted a couple of times more.

Button Saviour never re-appeared.

Which is kind of sad for me, because I love this app, and will need to reinstall now on my own phone :)

Weird problem

I have been using ACA (including the latest build) since the beginning of March without any serious issues..... till yesterday when my phone stopped seeing the SIM card. After having rebooted the phone (using shut down) it was visible again but today it stopped being seen again. No restarts helped. My ACA doesn't see the SIM card any more.

Anyone else facing a similar problem? Have you got it solved?

I can only add that WinMo sees the SIM card without any problems.

This was the main point of this post. The second request is as follows.

Does anyone know how to disable in-call Cyanogen lockscreen at all? I would love to do without one.

TIA
[HD2 Android SD Development] nygmam:
How old is your SIM card? They do go bad on occasion. You can probably get a free replacement from your carrier. I think if you leave it WinMo long enough it may stop working there too.

[HD2 Android SD Development] nygmam:
I have had two go bad, and I have had GSM since the voicestream days. When they die, you usually get the insert SIM card error. Sometimes removing and reinserting fixes it temporarily, and rebooting can sometimes help.

If you can't pick up a new card as you are not near a store, tehy will also send you a new one in the mail, if you ask nicely ;) did I mention they usually do it for free....

[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
pure speculation here, cause I have no idea how (and if) it works,

but using haret we run WM first, so maybe 32bpp somehow affects hardware, and the effect stays in place when android is started,

if so it is possible, that using magldr you already run in the - supposedly - better mode?
