Install flash and youtube from the market then, that's the only reason Android still works, that you can download everything.

Also, there is a YT app included in the rom.

Can't access fastboot menue (step 3) help please

Hi everyone....I am new, so bear with me pls.

I went through steps 1 + 2 ... all went OK.

I tried step 3, I tried to boot the device holding the back button to enter fastboot mode, but failed to enter fastboot mode.

On the tri colour screen it says:

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

0x05

0x30

I can get the bootloader menue (tri colour one), but no luck with the fastboot menue.

I searched this great thread (http://xdaforums.com/show...stboot&page=93) and found that one member (evo1rs) had similar problem and got it fixed. Still could not get my head round how this was done.....

Can you HELP me PLEASE?:(

HELP!

Hi all!

I'm having a crisis of sorts. I ran clockworkmod recovery to back up some system files, and my phone rebooted in the middle of it. Now americanandroid won't boot at all. It gets to the "powered by AmericanAndroid" screen and just hangs there. Would some kind soul out there PLEASE post a rarred version of the build for me?As I'm sure most of you know, wondows mobile and the .7z format do not like each other at all. I eould be GREATLY appreciative! Thanks in advance!

[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
1> Why are you using CWM with an SD build?

All the system files are in your android folder - system.ext2

2> Why do you keep on asking for different formats?

7zip is supported on Winmo and you have previously been given a link to the software required, but I'm sure most people extract the files on their PC, Mac or Linux boxes.

re: yt and flash

Oh come on man! I wouldn't have come and cried about it on xda if i hadn't tried the simplest possible solution. Market does not even show flash when I search. I found the apk online and installed it- nothing changes in browser. Also, I do not have the youtube app preinstalled and when I search the market it does not show up. What's the problem? Opera can't play videos either.

Sorry but think you wrong, I too am getting not available on this device, has anyone got any way of getting flash on this rom? Is it an SD thing .... haven't used SD roms since Jan 2011 when mdj was about, only using SD coz my hd2 is on the blink and won't load past magldr .... any1????
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Not an SD thing. Everything works. Search the forum.
[HD2 Android SD Development] mobiware:
Cope, Warren,

Thanks again for a great build. It looks like this release had fixed the black screens after a few shut downs and restarts along with fixing permissions in ROM Manager.

One major issue that remains is the 3g/hspa access or the data access being disabled (locked) although it shows as enabled. This is only resolved after a reboot. I am under the impression that sometimes it had to do with the bluetooth giving FCs but I haven't tested it as it's intermittent.

A minor issue that you might look at when you are staring at the ceiling is that the color of gestures in the lockscreen cannot be changed to anything other than yellow; once a different color is selected, if exiting to the home screen and going back to setting the color it still shows as yellow. Of course, it doesn't change when entering gestures in the lockscreen.

Thanks again,

MW

---------

UPDATE:

I was able to see the new lockscreen gesture color after a mandatory reboot (with battery removed)! The color as I mentioned didn't show correctly when I was modifying it but it was stored until restarting the phone. The lock happened after I was playing Angry Birds Space. Games like this or Raging Thunder 2 seem to be very processor- and graphics-hungry and almost always lock my phone! By the way I am using a 16Gb PNY Class 10 MicroSD card. I also tested this on an exact copy of the card (including the EXT3 and the Linux Swap partitions), being the original HTC HD2 card, a 16Gb Sandisk Class 2. The same thing happens there. I looks like I need to move to the NAND version of CM7.2 which runs faster from what's been reported!

USB storage not (or no longer) working?

I'm pretty sure I've always been able to transfer files to and from my SD card in ACA using USB storage. But now when I start USB storage, I transfer files to the SD card in Windows, they actually show up in Windows Explorer, but when I look on my HD2 itself, the files are not there.

So am I remembering incorrectly and this never worked or did it stop working in one of the recent builds?
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
unless it was fixed recently, it's been a pretty common problem for at least 8-10 months now
[HD2 Android SD Development] Zippy1970:
Really? Hmmm, I'm pretty sure I've been transferring files recently (no more than a few months ago).

Then again, maybe I'm mistaken and I had been transferring the files in WinMo 6.5...

This is a question!

I have my android on Sandisk microSDHC 16gb Class 2.

atm Aldi has a Medion microSDHC 16gb Class 6 for 13,5 euro.

Should I buy it? Will it improve my Android experienz? Or is the 2MB/s from Class 2 enough?
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
ymmv but my personal experience was that class 4 have almost half of the boot tome of class 2, normal usage of class 2 did not hurt. nevertheless I'm glad to have purchased class 10 for one reason only - direct transfer of files to and from PC is really fast

After changing density, did you go into settings, Manage Applications, then clear the cache for Google Play, and google service framework, and reboot? I bet you didn't, and I bet if you did, it would work as advertised, I also bet searching this thread would find this exact same advice...

Lockscreen freeze

I'm running a fairly old version of AmeriCan Android (AmeriCanAndroid 110711(sd)) but it has worked well for me so far.

Today however, I encountered an odd problem which renders my faithful HD2 virtually useless. I hope you guys are able to help me :)

Today when I simply wanted to txt my wife, my touchscreen didn't respond. I tried to get my phone out of the lockscreen, but nothing moved the circles. It responded to the buttons however, but I can't get by the lockscreen.

I did a softreboot, it restarted to Windows Mobile 6.5, and I was still unable to use the touchscreen.

Only after I did a hard reboot (remove battery), I was able to use the touchscreen again. That is, untill I locked my phone voluntarily.

I've tried several combinations of buttons (incl. volume, home, back, etc) to get the touchscreen to be enabled again, but it doesn't work.

Searching these forums gave me nothing usefull so I turn to you :)

Does anyone know how to fix this (preferably without reinstalling Android since that has been working fine up to now)?
[HD2 Android SD Development] walidhazem:
i think u need to send it to repair :/ but before that flash stock wm6.5 and flash other things to make sure the touchscreen isnt working(happened to me 1 month ago)
[HD2 Android SD Development] king786:
hello you have the same problem as me the phone will need a new digitizer as or you do a temp fix which is everytime you press power button your screen may or not work you will have to keep pressing it hard or soft the screen will work if you use your phone more for android i would highly recommend using button saviour (what i use)

have a look on google and youtube and see the help vids or comments you will see that the problem is to do with the ribbon that joins the scree and digitizer
[HD2 Android SD Development] CamelKnight:
The odd thing is that does work when I do a hard reset by removing the battery. Seems to me to be a software related issue. And since I just renewed a 2 year contract, it also means my insurance has ended on my phone. It's like HTC installed a timer lol

Well, not so lol actually, but more ironic :P
[HD2 Android SD Development] p107r0:
sad but pretty frequent - the ribbon under the power button gives up after some time (mine lasted two years), then its either repair or new device
[HD2 Android SD Development] CamelKnight:
Yeah, I found some stuff on Youtube which clarified a lot. Damn shame...

Pressing the Power button a bit harder seems to work for me. I guess I'll try that method untill it gives up. Then I might aswell go for the One X I guess.

Cheers for the help guys :)

Hey, I installed AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB2.3.7 CM7.2 on my HD2. It is working great.

I am using this rom a week and have some small problems, but there is one serious problem. My phone stays in the silent mode. All settings seem to be okay (I have tried all setting and a couple of apps), but when i get a incoming call the phone is silent and vibrates. All other sound are working good. Anybody an idea how to fix it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] itais:
Dear AmiriCanAndroid,

Will you be making an ICS version ?

Thank you in advance,

Itai.
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
(I think) your up/down volume hard keys, on the side of the device, should take the ringer out of silent mode. When the ringer volume is at its lowest setting (which is Off), the ringer defaults to vibrate.

Also... There's a free app in the market... "Android Assistant", that I've found to be pretty useful... For quick access to the devices various sound modes and volumes... Setup its "shortcuts" widget on one of your homescreens and you'll be good to go.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dutchy99:
I've tried all these thinks before is posted my question. Android assitent is great app. I think its a bug. I'll try another Rom.
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
I think you should (might) backup all of your apps & data with Titanium, or similar... and do a fresh install... maybe (or maybe not) create a fresh, new data.image file.

It's definitely not a bug with the build or ACA in general. It could be your hardware. You might try a different rom... but there isn't a better SD rom.

Good luck!

I just synced my contacts to my pc using activesync and then exported them from outlook in csv format. I can't remember what i used to import them (i may have imported them to gmail and then let the phone sync them from there). You could also try exporting them to vcard format and then copy them to your SD card and then import them using the contacts app.

[HD2 Android SD Development] tharche:
About the SOD(Sleep of death), it occured on me many times. I found it's HAPPEND because the SD Android build is processing something on HD2 that make it delay to respond our wake up procedure.

I use this method to overcome it: use wake up device with any hardware key in CM setup, when screen off, use any hardware key but powerkey to wake device up. Nothing happened just key light on and grey screen on, then press powerkey to sleep device again. Then wake device up again. Most time this work for me.

And i don't use "pull battery away" all the time, why there are reset button and leave it useless ?

Sorry for my poor english.

File corruption with Android USB sharing

I am dealing wih file corruption problem contstantly. I always "eject" the card in Windows once I finish copying, then turn off usb the storage in Android, and I often see the files dissapeared or with zero length, or Windows reports corruption. Is this just a problem with Android 2 or it is also a problem with Android 4 SD devices? Is there any workaround except for rebooting into WM every time you need to copy a file?

Data drops.

Am I the only one that is still plagued with constant data drops? I've used every version of this build for over a year and there used to be frequent mention of the data drops, but it seems no one is complaining about them anymore. FYI, I'm using the T9193 version of the HD2 on AT&T here in the Northeast US and using radio 2.15.50.14. I don't think it's hardware related because I've used other Android builds and their data connection will remain constant. I get data drops all day, every day using this build.

Hi, because I need both Windows Mobile 6.5 on my HTC HD2 and Android running I have been using many Android SD builds, and found AmericanAndroid to be absolute best.

Had stability issues (freezes) with last two builds, but the most current one from 8 MAR 2012 is absolute blast! I truly wish AmericanAndroid will continue to be developed for another year.
