[HD2 Android SD Development] Moschino02:
thanks but what is the full size of the rom - is it enough to fit and run on 2gb??
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
Of course
[HD2 Android SD Development] dyval:
2GB sd card? yes if you wouldn't have other files on it other than the sd-build. atleast a 4GB is better.

is there any way to install nand version of americanandroid and dont loose all my apps and configurations from my sd version??

have the nand version of americanandroid app2sd with an ext4 partition?

thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
The NAND thread would be the better place to ask that question.

People there already made the switch and can tell you how they did it.

You can backup your apps and settings with Titanium backup and restore them to the NAND build.

Old timer WinMo user - first time Android

Sorry for this might be a repeat question but I'm a little lost on this.

I have tried several radios and airplane on/off method. But I keep intermittently loosing my cell signal. Is this an inherent issue with the SDAndroid builds? If so, can someone PLEEEAAASSSEEE let me know how to turn off the @#$% annoying sound I hear every time I loose the signal.

Thanks in advance for understanding any info. :confused:

The simplest way is to edit the LCD density in startup.txt and reboot. Try 240 as that is the standard Android dip.

[HD2 Android SD Development] reijkelhof:
As far as I know, all android versions on the HD2 have this annoying problem of loosing the signal every now and then, although I know nothing of a sound when this happens.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Mysticales:
Just wanted to say THANKS! This is the BEST Android rom Ive seen for my HD2! I mean its all purdy! lol. Also love that I can use the SD card for this one. =D

Ok couple questions:

1: Whats with that blue bar that comes up when I am in menus or selecting? Kinda annoying?

2: Hows the battery life for you all when using the SD method?

3: Wiimote work on this build? Just wondering. =)

Otherwise thank you very much for a build I really really like!

Edit: Ok really after 10 mins of seeing that orange box with blue stripe line when I hit options in a menu... that really hurts my eyes where I see that bar flashing when I blink my eyes.. How do I fix that one?

Edit 2: Anyone get Netflix going or was it just the last update that messed it up?
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
1.

That's an error that happens because of the low screen density of this build.

You don't have to use the 240 screen density that android originally uses but it has to be higher than the 167 density of this ROM. 200 should do it. Read the FAQ or first page or search the thread to find out how to change the density.

2. Depends. Some people have high drain and no one exactly knows why. Could be an app going crazy or something else. If that happens your phone will drain with about 60mA per hour.

If you don't have that problem drain will be somewhere between 6-10mA per hour in standby.

Drain also depends on how you use your phone. wifi on all the time, gps, bluetooth, screen on high brightness, ... . That will drain your phone.

In my case I always get through a day with about 50% battery left at the end of the day. Charging the phone over night, every night and you should be fine.

The battery of the HD2 isn't exactly what a phone of the size of the hd2 should have. 1230mA is a bad joke.

---------- Post added at 02:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ----------

Hi Guys;

Something strange happened today. Today when I took out the phone to make a call, it was stuck for a moment and then went to the boot animation(flying android robot) and then booted up again. It is strange because if the phone had a problem and re started it should have come to Windows but it didn't.

And even though all the apps are present, all the settings seems to be reset. Data enabled(previously disabled), animations all turned on(previously turned off). Is there anything like a system restore feature that I am unaware of which could have been activated?
[HD2 Android SD Development] ketzazu:
yes, I read something like that somewhere, a backup folder, maybe at a wiki webpage for the G1. But I am not sure. Google it.
[HD2 Android SD Development] damnshah:
hey guys

sorry if this has been asked before...but im facing problems while making calls. I cannot hear the dialtone (or the person speaking for that matter) at all unless i put it on speaker.

Unlike the common problem, I do not have any BT peripherals paired to my phone so im not sure what the problem is...im using the aug28 build [please ignore my sig]...

Wow, that's pretty damn condescending. I thought that people were here to help each other, not to make stupid remarks like "find it yourself".

This thread is now almost 1700 pages long and you can't blame people for not wanting to read all pages searching for an answer to a simple question that can be answered in a few words - even if the answer might be found on the first few pages of this thread. I had a few questions about this build too, and I wasn't able to find an answer using the forum's search function. So I started reading. On average, it takes me about 3 minutes to read a single page from this thread. So on average, it would take me 42,5 hours of reading to find an answer to each question. Excuse me for having a life and not having the time to spend each waking hour reading this thread.

The (non-) answer you gave is longer than the real answer would have been. A few posts below yours somebody fortunately didn't find it too much trouble to explain. And he did it in two short sentences.

And you know, the more often these simple questions gets answered, the easier it gets to find those answers and the less often those questions are asked. That's what a forum is all about. To help each other and answer each other's questions.
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
Use a cardreader or transfer the files wirelessly via Bluetooth or wifi.

The USB connection doesn't work properly.

There is also an app in the market that will allow copying files to an sd build but there is the danger of corrupting the build files. Your call.

The app has been mentioned a couple of pages ago, try to find it, I can't remember its name.

---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------

Well, we have a life, too.

Once you've answered the same questions countless times, you won't be too keen to repeteating them again.

The over 1700pages of this thread, that make finding answers so hard mostly consist of the same questions asked over and over again and the corresponding answers. If people would try to find answers for themselves before they ask we wouldn't have this mess.

I know it's hard to figure things out completely on your own, when you are new to this, but if someone points you in the right direction it's fairly easy to use google and find an answer.

Asking for an individual step by step guide after you've been pointed in the right direction is rather rude in my book. I understand why Spaqin reacted the way he did. Some users just need a little shove once in a while to realize that they are not alone in the world and there actions are rather selfish.

its working again! thanks!!

Btw, i'm still facing the no sound from calls issue (nothing BT even near my phone)...anyone got anything worth trying?

update: now even my WinMo is facing the no sound issue...could it be a hardware issue? ive tried reinstalling ACA but still to no avail...there seems to be a Nand fix for this here but im not sure if would apply to SD builds..

final update: ive tried flashing everything from WinMo up still to no avail, im guessing its an internal hardware issue and im planning to send it for a warranty claim...Thanks guys!

Does it have to be circled battery?

If you only want to have battery percentage (and you don't give a **** about how does it look), go to settings -> CyanogenMod -> Interface -> Status bar tweaks -> Battery percentage.

And wow. I didn't think that I'm that evil. Personally, I don't think that having a step by step tutorial written just for you will teach you anything. By searching by yourself you will actually learn something. For example, how to save others' time by using search tool, few searches later maybe you will know how are the forums organized and where should I look for answers etc.

What surprises me is that only few people can use search engine in the right way. We can't encourage the rest to ask more questions when they are already answered. You can't be a noob forever. What if xda goes down? Who will you ask?
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
Evil? Not. Bit impolite? Probably.

[HD2 Android SD Development] dumbquestion:

That's about 1600 pages filled by posters who do not use the forum's search feature. It would be fun to see aggregated data on how many posts asked about the lcd density issue, the usb file transfer issue, or the 60(+)mA battery drain issue. Any favorite questions beyond these?
[HD2 Android SD Development] compact_bijou:
Yeah, turn wifi off and back on again.

The mac address is different on Android OS than is was on Windows OS so the wi-fi session

you had on your router is not technically the same session as it is when you boot Android.

You should have your router set to only allow mac addresses of known devices, btw..................................thx button below ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] shamez23:
@compact_bijou

The router will recognize a new device and connect it. It doesn't matter if you have different ip or MAC addresses. Provided that you don't limit to certain addresses. But that doesn't seem to be the issue here, since the user can connect, once he toggled wifi off and back on.

@steveianson

I've never encountered this problem but then I never leave wifi on before I turn my phone off.

Just to make sure it's not the router or some setting in the router, connect your phone to another router, maybe at a friends or somewhere else. Restart your phone and check if the problem persists.
[HD2 Android SD Development] general1977:
I believe we have had this problem with wifi before. As far as I can remember, there's nothing we can do about it right now.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Zippy1970:
So you counted them, huh? So you say only about 100 pages of this thread are actually filled with useful/new information? Really? <insert rolling eyes smiley here>

---------- Post added at 11:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

And oddly enough, I haven't had that problem for over a week now while before it was a daily deal.

Setting volume to full in WinMo on this phone doesn't distort the sound. And when lowering the volume it gradually decreases. What I meant to say is, that if the volume of the full setting was lowered a bit, you would have finer control over the volume and it wouldn't distort at higher volumes (don't know if that makes sense - have a hard time explaining what I mean in English).

I'm not trying to recreate WinMo here. I'm simply trying to lower the volume of my phone when I want to. For instance, if I walk into a cinema, I not only want to lower my ring volume, but the media volume as well to lower the volume of some app's notification sounds. Media volume not only controls the volume of the media player, but app volumes as well. Another example: if I'm in a game and want to lower the volume, I can't because pressing the volume buttons lowers the ring volume. So I have to exit the game, start the media player, lower the volume, stop the media player and start the game again. It has nothing to do with trying to recreate WinMo.

I will give that a try.

Thank you. That's solid advice.

Any particular reason why data connection is so flaky in all Android builds? The difference is staggering. If I boot my phone in WinMo, I get a HSPDA connection everywhere with speeds up to 3Mb/s. In ACA, I'm glad if I see that little "H" at all and even when I do, I get speeds of around 0.4Mb/s.

Will do. since that's really the only thing that keeps me from using ACA all the time. Now if I need to make a long trip I boot in WinMo because if I don't have a way to charge my phone, it will be empty in no time.

I only use the "End Call" button to put the phone in stand-by. And when I do, I can't turn it back on immediately. I need to wait for 10-20 seconds.

It's not connecting randomly, it's actually starting and stopping randomly without ever making a connection. But I solved that problem already. I uninstalled Skype. ;)

No. I didn't count them.

Cyanogen 7.1 release

Hi Warren/Cope,

I read today that Cyanogen 7.1 has just hit it's "release" version. Would it be possible to get a special release of ACA based on it? Is it for the HD2 as well? (I couldn't see our beloved phone in the supported devices list). Would be great to see if it's any more solid than the nightly build though... Also because of this post in the issue on pptp not working.

Hi I suffer as well! :-) I mean :-(

The truth is the the data drop increased drastically and the phone became unusable for 3g data connection. The wifi is working fine but as soon as I leave home switch to 3g and try to browse inet, after one or two pages the data connection is gone. I can't even download my emails only from my account at google mail.

Recently the phone started to drop calls randomly (is it still a phone then ?:-).

I had my data.img for ages now and though it might be this, so I bought a new 8gb class 10 card, installed from scratch but had the same issue the next day.

And I have the same problem with skype - asking for re-installing. And if I log into skype and let it running in the background it always drops the data connection (3g) when I try to connect to internet (email, weather, web, etc)

I checked my radio version - 2.15.50.40. Can maybe users not having this problem let me know if they use a different radio version?

please help :confused:
