[HD2 Android NAND Development] Jammie_1989:
This is by far the best build I have used so far. No music stuttering or jumping. Everything is running really fast after first boot and typing is quick. Also build is smoother than all others I have tried. Great ROM will no doubt be keeping this for the forseable future. If its not broke dont fix it :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] -P3P-:
Hi guys just to confirm, in the first post by Raf he states he squashed files etc for people who do not want to use an EXT Partition.

So am I right to say that If I just use all the space on my SD as FAT32 with no EXT partition it will work fine? As in I can still move any Apps to SD and not worry about Space / Performance?

Reason I ask is I've been stuck on the RafDroid Splash Screen for almost 10 mins.

Thanks.

Any update to the RAFDROID HD 4.2?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] murgers:
Hi, first of all I have an EU HD2 and been using you main build for many months now. I have always loved it but it can be a bit laggy using data2sd so I thought I would give this a try. I have a lot of apps installed and I used titanium backup to transfer everything from your main build to this new one. I have to say the light build works much better on the EU HD2, I am not experiencing any lag, music skipping, freezing while syncing etc…

Now I am having a few issues with the app2sd+ function and was hoping you might be able to shed some light. I used the same card format that I used for data2sd (16GB card with 1GB ext3 partition) and app2sd is defiantly enabled as titanium backup shows that it is has 850/1000MB free.

When first set up the ROM I had about 22MB free in internal memory (after restoring my apps). This has been getting gradually smaller as I have updated apps or installed additional apps. I now have 7MB free and cannot install/ update anything else as I am told I don’t have enough space. I have tried uninstalling apps and no internal memory is freed up. I uninstalled a 14mb game, this didn’t give me more space, I then tried to reinstall it and it told me I don’t have enough space.

According to application manager I have only 2 games on SD, but when I try to move them into internal memory as recommended, again I am told “not enough free memory”

Should the internal memory be affected at all by installing/uninstalling apps if app2sd is functioning?

Does any part of the app still need to be in internal memory?

Is there anything available that can force the 2 games mentioned above into the app2sd partition?

Any suggestions at all would be appreciated?

Thanks

great build..all things work for me that i use..messaging gps wifi camera camcorder..over 110 apps all work (do not use them all frequently but tested all)..TMOUS HD2 do not even use apps2sd..all on nand..no problems !

btw..found this to be much smoother than the full 4.2 version..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Niker84:
Dear Rafpigna!

Is it possible to update this lite version to all new standards. I personally do not like those roms needing a triple formatted sd-card.

I and I think many more would really appreciate if you could therefore come up with a new release of this rom with the newest kernel and maybe some more space (!) for apps that cannot be transferred to sd-card via App2SD. can you squash it a little bit more?

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I installed this ROM, it is good and everything working fine, but when I remove the SD card or put some other SD card it is not booting and stuck in the Rafroid boot screen. Does this ROM requires the SD card to boot ?

EDIT: Now it's working, the problem was the SD card, it cannot mount it, but I am able to use the SD card for camera.

Android kernel

Dear All

as i understand, the android kernel source, what you can download from Google , should be enough for building a new kernel to some phone.

If i am right, does that mean that the Linux kernel sources are already included?

Or am i totally wrong?

Thanks for your answers

I am also interested in learning the Kernel Development and ROM development. Can Any one Help.
[General Questions and Answers] sz_gergo:
I have the answere for the question above.

After i have inspected the Android kernel sources, it came out, that i have been right.The only source you need for creating a new kernel for a phone, is the complete android kernel.

The linux kernel is allready included.

I think if you want to build a kernel, specific for your phone. you have to overwrite the default dirs with the specific sources of your phone. If it is not allready done by others.
[General Questions and Answers] elyashivlavi:
Android Kernel

Hi,

We need to distinguish between Linux and Android. Android was forked from Linux, and now those are managed as separate products. Android usually takes the updates from linux, but there are features in Android which Linux refused to get (such as wakelocks).

So the android kernel source includes all needed to build a working kernel.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoren:
AFAIK, adfree simply adds a hosts file with the add servers in it, in which case you are seeing adds because either the servers changed or there are new ad servers that haven't been added yet. Devs need incentive to do the work they do, so just be happy that you can even get good apps for free and deal with it.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethutch:
There is something odd going on with hosts. I have the same problem as you that ads continue. I have traced mine to the fact that the hosts file is continually overlaid by the default blank one. It appears there is some component that continually scans this and wipes it.

I posted this problem a couple months ago but never got a response. The best I did was install GScript Lite and create a script to copy my saved off version of the ad-free hosts file back over the real one. It is not a good solution but the only one I have. I suppose the ultimate solution would be a different ROM. But that would just trade the problem I understand for an unknown number of ones I don't.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
While I somewhat agree with your post, I agree with jdkoren's more. All of the apps you are blocking ads for were free, free because of the ads that help fund the development of the apps. So I think he's just saying, if you can't block the ads, accept it, you have all those apps at no cost... Everything we experience, this forum, these custom ROMs, market apps, all took great amounts of time and effort, I think sometimes we lose sight of that when we think about open source projects.

I recently bought a 16GB Patriot MicroSD card, class 10. I find that after 24 hours of use, things start to fall apart (I've tried several different SD builds). I also have Sandisk 16GB Class 2 card that runs my daily Android software; never had a problem with it in 2 months. I follow the same procedure when attaching the card via a reader and removing it from my computer. I also use the same procedure when attaching the phone to my PC. I have concluded that the new Class 10 card is failing. My questions are:

1. Is anyone using a Patriot 16GB Class 10 card with success?

2. Can you give me an opinion of the best 16GB card when using Android on the HD2?

3. Could the Patriot card be too fast for the HD2?

Hello, as you may realize this is my first post on the forums, and I have a couple questions.

I'm currently running Cognition with the Firebird 2 kernel on it, and I've been learning things about modems recently.

To clarify things however:

What is a modem? I'm under the impression it is the "driver" that allows the phone to contact the world, but please tell me if I'm wrong or elaborate.

And,

What, by people's experience or knowledge, is the best modem for me to use with my Firebird 2 kernel? Currently my phone is running JL1.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koreancanuck:
As far as I know, modems have an impact on data speed, phone quality, GPS and phone signal. Everyone has different opinions on which modem works the best for them, but generally I see that a lot of people like JK4 or JL3.

[Atrix 4G General] qcom100:
So, I've been following this thread recently and I need to ask a very basic question about some bootloader basics.

Someone referenced a post that explained the difference between locked and encrypted bootloaders but I cannot seem to find it.

From what I understand, in the simplest of terms, locked is good news and encrypted is bad news. In other words, a locked bootloader will enable us to eventually install custom ROMs from a different kernel not currently supported by the latest OTA update. Whereas with an encrypted bootloader, it is pretty much impossible to install ROMs from a different kernel and are limited to installing from the same kernel.

I'm not sure if some (if any) of the above is right.

So, I go back to check on that thread today and I notice the OP has been updated to say that the bootloader is signed is the same as either locked or encrypted? Or is it a completely different term?

I really home it's the same as a locked bootloader, but I have no idea.

If anyone has a good link describing this, or feels like explaining it themselves, it would be appreciated.

Thanks!
