Pocket mode ?!

Guys, after one week of using this great build, I found 2 very strange problems :confused:

1- There is no pocket mode (that increases the ringtone and vibrates while the phone is in ur pocket or bag) and quiet ring on pick up.

I checked other builds, like original OS for HTC incredible, it does have the feature in setting>sound

How can I enjoy it like what I had on Winmow,

It is very annoying as I have to change vibrate or volume whenever I want to put it in my pocket (2000 times per day :D)

2- How can I change the ringtone for notifications like sms ? I dont like any of the default sounds and there is no way to change it. There are some media players that you can apply ur favorite music as a ringtone for call,

But nothing for sms ...

And u can not copy the ringtone file in system>media>ringtone>notification neither by file browser on your phone, nor by computer.

Note: I spend 2 hours for a search on google, xda and advanced search to find the answers, no result...

Ur kind help is highly appreciated :o

Semper fi, dude, semper fi.

Thanks I'll look into...

There is nothing tricky, just edit the file .... :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] evo1rs:
Create sdcard/media/audio/notifications/

Put files in there and reboot. Should now be able to select them.

Also works with .../alarms/ folder

Files might need to be ogg format or m4a but you can experiment with what works!

Edit/ mp3 works fine too, just tested it.

Hi,

Thanks dude.

Works fine ...

So how about the first one...

I wonder, among these huge number of users, no one has felt the lack of pocket mode in HTC Sense ?!
[HD2 Android SD Development] bbsnick:
I think what you mention is not a problem.

Chances to do something to mark the area that has the "E" mark.

And in my country, in some regions (mainly in the countryside) appears in "E".
[HD2 Android SD Development] sectorzero:
Thanks men i live in mexico city and with other phones work fine 3G but in my HD2 all the time its "E" my problem its not is configuration?? my mistake in configuration? forgoth anything??

Thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
Do a #*#*4636*#*#

Phone info

Change wcdma preferred to wcdma only.

Should now give you 3g and your texts should still work.

The problem is most likely stemming from a weak 3g signal I'd bet.

Next.....Or perhaps you have a 2g version of the hd2??

Lastly Also check your access point names in wireless settings. This means ensure what is selected and entered is accurate for your carrier. If not, add a new apn with the correct settings.

If that all doesn't work then I can't tell ya. Lol
[HD2 Android SD Development] sectorzero:
Ok Men Thanks.

im reconfigure wcdma only

Thanks

By the way, what is it that everybody's expecting from ICS port? I have a feeling that it'll be just a UI facelift, accompanied by (in case of HD2) larger memory/storage consumption and overall slowness. Wouldn't it be better to stick with gingerbread and focus on things actually worth perfecting, like camcorder still not shooting 720p (like it does on WP7 ports) or fixing whatever bugs are still present?
[HD2 Android SD Development] King-Chris111:
I think you're right, but otherwise for many users that's the main aspect of the HD2 that you can experiment with difrent builds and in this case with the new Android 4.

If you really want to have all things working, maybe our HTC is too old :D

Of course it's bad that filming is even worse in 800*480 on SD Roms, but I think WP7 has other bugs and problems.
[HD2 Android SD Development] AmeriCanAndroid:
we got 720 recording working flawlessly on the nand build. so........ now we need to get it ported to boot sd. i believe warren may be looking into that on his end sometime in the near future.

android 4 will be an option from aca... just not yet. cm9 will be for sure..

lol hd2 too old. I think not. :)

new build released.

WiFi and GPS oddness

I've been running AA for a while now with radio 2.15.50.14. Couldn't be happier except those few times I need GPS or WiFi. If the unit has been running a while I need to restart to get them to enable. If I don't they just won't turn on. Checking the box for enabling WiFi in wireless properties just sits for a while and then says error. Same if I try to use the icons on the status bar. I've tried setting them on in WM before starting android, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. This has been going on with the last few builds, but I don't think it's related to a bad file or something as I usually start fresh. Any Ideas?

Did u try? Ok, it's not so tricky, but I don't know how I can change these Disable/Enable settings permanently. Do you? After a restart they are in the original state again.

Yes, it's a problem for me, too. Although it's kinda "different". Sometimes is the battery drain ok, sometimes not. I could not identify the reason yet.

[HD2 Android SD Development] Phoenix65420:
Battery Drain

Battery Drain is horrible IF you use Bluetooth. That means having the BT on regardless of connectivity.

Battery Drain CAN be horrible if you are using the incorrect radios.

Both of these should be covered in the first post or FAQ sections.

Other then those are you experiencing bad battery drain? Normally I see 5-8mA/h with no BT on, and 60 with BT on.
[HD2 Android SD Development] Tekone:
I'm download skype or Tango, under market app it shows skype or tango no support on this device. How can i get it work? I'm thinking to flash this program in nand install under on the SD. How can i do that? Is there any link with instruction please?
[HD2 Android SD Development] shah_vm:
if you are using email app then yes battery drain is very high. I guess it was mentioned some where in this thread and i have validated that i have stopped using email app and battery drain is normal. i m on SD build running on top on WM 6.5 with bluetooth off all the time.

Battery drain, or not?

My experience also.
[HD2 Android SD Development] yawa:
It's my experience, too. Using BT is sometimes (!), but not necessarily, the cause of battery drain.

And what about email app. Yes, I'm using it, I _must_ use it ;) Deactivating push mails could help, I guess.

---------- Post added at 10:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 AM ----------

"Should be" ;) I've found in the first posts only, that the battery drain with 60 mA/h with BT "should be" already fixed.
[HD2 Android SD Development] warrenb213:
The way it has been implemented gives a drain while it is on as it ensures compatibility. I am unable to understand why folks can't turn off their bt when done.....
[HD2 Android SD Development] yawa:
It's quit simple. I'm using BT to make calls using my car system. It's very uncomfortable, when I must turn it on and off again, if I should do that many times during a day. Under WinMo I didn't have this issue.

What kind of compatibility issues do you mean?
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
When I'm in my car, BT is turned on full-time. The HD2 is usually sitting in a dashboard mount with GPS on, and it's powered-up with a usb DC charger plugged into the cigarette lighter.

Out of the car I'll selectively use BT, but I'll always carry a spare battery just in case. Can't say that I typically experience a high battery drain. I don't expect the SD build to have the battery life a NAND build would have.

Hey guys

Im updating from 081211 build.. keep the old data.img..

Everything is fine.. except for less then 24 hours i cant wake up my phone(BSOD) twice.. and need to pull the battery out :(

My old setcpu minimum with the older build is 128 and i never got this issue..

On the 1st BSOD, i rise min setcpu to 245.. but i still got BSOD for the 2nd time..

Any idea whats wrong and how to fix it ?

thanks
[HD2 Android SD Development] webjunky:
try with a fresh install and let it create a new data.img
[HD2 Android SD Development] iamlegend2:
My friend have hd2 t-mobile version, upgrading from 081211 build too and keep the old data.img, he said he never got BSOD..

I change setcpu min back to 128 and set the scalling to interactive(it was ondemand before), so far no BSOD.. Hope this will fix it..

thanks for ur answer btw..
[HD2 Android SD Development] ukdutypaid:
If anybody is interested, I've done a 'hammering the battery' test.

Wifi tether on (screen off). Two PCs connected. Surfing on one, plus a bit of live TV, continual audio streaming through the other.

CPU gov on 'powersaver' and 245-998 (tried answering a txt message, Swype keyboard was unusable).

Juice Defender Ultimate on (can't imagine it was even possible for it to do much under these circumstances),

I don't have twitter/FB/RSS pumping away on the phone.

No animations, no wallpaper. WCDM only and every other fiddle with I've ever found so far. Plus, I'd done a battery calibration before hand.

So, from 100%, how long did it last? 20:00-23:30 3.5 hrs to low single figures on the battery. Then I plugged it back in (USB)

So what's that, about 0.5% batter drain, per min.

I often suffer from random reboots, when using Wifi Tether (every build, some worse than others), although it usually coincides with some action on the phone. A txt sometimes, a during a call! or if i download an app. Sometimes seemingly for no reason, so I was lucky it made it through this time.

Not sure that's too dreadful, to be honest. That's a good half days works if you were out in the 'field' etc
[HD2 Android SD Development] RobE.:
Interactive scaling is good. Setcpu min @128 is not. You're not doing yourself any favors letting it go that low.
[HD2 Android SD Development] iamlegend2:
Whats the best numbers for setcpu min?.. 245?..

I just got another BSOD :(

Obviously changing ondemand scaling to interactive scaling is not fixed the problem :(
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
If you still have problems at 245 try upping to the next value or reducing the max to 998. Our processors are not all able to cope with even a small overclock.

Swyped from my aHD2oid
[HD2 Android SD Development] iamlegend2:
Thanks, i will do that if i got another BSOD..

But when i was using the old build(081211), my min was 128 and max 1190 and i never got any BSOD..
[HD2 Android SD Development] see_u_then:
I'm updated from Dec 7th build to Jan 12th build, but the Talk and Home hardware buttons stopped working for me after the update. The other three buttons(Menu, Back and End) are working fine.

If I boot into Windows or an Androd build from somebody else then all hardware buttons work fine so its not a hardware fault.

I have tried to install twice and am using fresh data.img. Is there a way to fix it?
[HD2 Android SD Development] Moschino02:
Sorry to bother you..

How do i get the original theme back on the rom?? i downloaded tried and tested a few other s they were not to my liking..

when i try to apply the original theme from settings adw launcher nothing happens I'm still stuck with a theme which i downloaded and deleted..

Any words of advice would be appreciated
[HD2 Android SD Development] Pedro G:
for some reason with this latest build my home key doesn't work right after i first boot into it. but after i reboot it works fine.

i've been having the bsod lately with this build but after reading what other people said about the setcpu i'm thinkin its because i keep cranking the max all the way up lol

i'm gonna do a clean install and try the suggested setcpu numbers. hopefully that solves it for me.
[HD2 Android SD Development] JustX:
I am using the second to latest build and everything works great and I love my battery life. I turn off auto synch and can last a whole day easy.

Sometimes wifi needs to be toggled to work every now and then but that's just a minor annoyance.

Great work as usual guys.

Your problem now sounds more like a corrupt SD card. Put it in a card reader and do a Windows checkdisk on it. If that doesn't show any problems, it could be any of your android files, so a full format and reinstall may be necessary.

Yes, ACA kernel is NAND capable so it cannot stat on sd when there is another android in NAND

Why not use the nand build of ACA? It's pretty quick to change builds if you choose the cLK version and backup using recovery.

Or you could make an SD build out of your existing nand build using Portadroid...

I have problem with Mobile data with last few builds. I start from Setings mobile internet and it run few minutes that stops. I turn off and turn on again but nothing happen.

Thanks uzi , I'm using magldr,have to read a little about clk,does it allow to dualboot ( android nand and sd )? I'm using sense 3.5 atm, been missing some things about sense, and was trying to find a stable sd build.. as I was an Americanandroid user for months,I remember that this was the perfect build to keep in my sd when I miss speed and smoothness,and when I'm making some experiences in nand..I've been using portadroid for some stuff,and It's awsome,but It's not porting some of the new builds due to the new kernels not being able to boot from sd..
[HD2 Android SD Development] Titicaca:
you kiding...by the way, anyone notice there is NO touch focus in camera setting?? :confused:
[HD2 Android SD Development] uzi2:
The current cLK (1.5) does not allow booting from SD.

You're back to the original problem of newer kernels booting from nand rather than SD. I don't think it's a problem that will go away. It's obviously not a simple solution as I know Warren wants to use the .35 kernel on this build, but so far it only boots from nand.
[HD2 Android SD Development] iamlegend2:
Thanks again uzi2 , i didnt got BSOD anymore..

I scan my sd card, but no problem found.. when i try to bakcup/copy Adorid folder, there is an error, filename too long, for a file on /data folder.. need a special tool to delete that file.. after deleted, no more BSOD :D

battery drain and problem

i have a problem after updating to the latest build (i did that creating a new data.img) every time i close an app and return to my adw homescreen it looks like my homescreen was killed and refresh itself so it takes 5-10 secs for my phone to respone to my commands! is there something i can do? also the battery drain is awful compaired to previous builds!

edit: solved the refresh problem: dev tools ->development settings->i had to uncheck immediatly destroy activities

Does anyone else have a problem with settings resetting? I am not sure if it's a general problem or it specifically occurs on the wifi policy setting. I set the wifi to sleep after screen is off and after some time I find the setting reset to never. Of course I have the same problem when rebooting.
[HD2 Android SD Development] HeadMajor:
I actually recently had this same problem, but fixed it by copying everything to another SD card. not sure what it was, but after moving to a different SD card I was able to set the sleep policy to the screen off setting and it stayed. I've since moved back to the original SD card but have had no recurrence of the problem.

I think i may have bricked my phone :( I only have it a few hours

I followed this guide and downloaded the rom,I installed it on to the sd card and followed the instructions as they were shown in the video.

However during the install it became frozen,After about 30 mins i took out the battery,

Now when i try to start my phone nothing at all happens,Power buttons or any other buttons do not work.

When i connect it to the pc via the usb cable it will start for a few seconds and show the radio version

r 2 06 51 07

g 15 30 50 07u

d 166 76641

After about 1 second of showing that it turns back off,Is my phone bricked?

I know i used the wrong radio version
[HD2 Android SD Development] NYLimited:
Can you get into the tri-color bootloader? Take battery out, make sure usb is not plugged in. Hold volume down key and power up with red key.

If you can get to the bootloader you can update the radio (see my signature) or you can restore a stock WinMo rom and start over. If you go back to stock make sure you use the correct one for your device.
[HD2 Android SD Development] privatepile:

Since I've been having problems with WM 6.5 for 2 years now, and I deemed an HTC G2 unusable after having put 387 applications on it (!#%@&), I just started over with a fresh copy of the 010312 SD AmeriCan Android ROM about a week ago.

I have NOT used anything that robust for years. This is IT. This is the BEST thing that happened in the cell world in years.

Thank you Copenhagen and Warren. Your work really shows.

Unfortunately, after 3.5 hours of sleep last night and an impulse, I was trying to update the battery indicator to the rotary one, and killed my build. The problem is between the monitor and the chair - no good backup saved on FAT32. Luckily I have created an EXT3 (not EXT2) partition and have updated the parameters for backing up to it, but I don't know how to restore (using ClockworkMod). I guess at this point it doesn't matter as I plan to start from scratch again with today's build.

So since I don't have anything else to report at this point, I might comment on the awesome burger in the picture. It looks like it's from the Yard House - at least that's where I plan to celebrate my NEW HTC HD2 cell phone running Android, tomorrow night!!!

Keep up the OUTSTANDING work!

Copy all the files in the new build's Android folder to your SDcard Android folder, using copy and replace. There is no new data.img so your existing one should remain unchanged (but back it up first anyway).
