I seem to be having a bit of trouble with 1.3. Widget locker won't install from the market due to an unspecified error, although other apps installed OK. The sense lockscreen is extremely slow to react, I need to swipe it 4 or 5 times at least to get it to work - my phone is about a week old &...

Just an idea, but once folks try out different radios could we get some reports on how good/bad they are for regions, and then add that to the first post as it goes along?

Just to let you know that v1.1 is alot better than 1.0 for me. Battery does not heat up at all on charge and the CPU useage seems alot lower. Battery life seems a bit better, although I have yet to see current widget report anything less than around 160mA. I have tried a few roms so far, and...

Just an update to the post I made about battery temperature. I changed ROM last night to the LEEDroid one, good rom but I instantly missed the eye-candy, so reverted to a backup of COREDROID from CWM. On charging today the battery seems to be holding temp at around 38 degrees C, which is fine...

Just for information, I seem to be getting a very hot battery when charging also. The phone does charge OK, but elixir was reading the temp at 45 degrees. I'm sure I read somewhere that over 35 degrees can damage the battery? Everything is working fine, the rom looks and feels great. But the...

I haven't used GPS much. I have a little and it does work, but I will try to test it a bit this week, see how long the signal holds up on a journey, that sort of thing. I'll let you know ;o)

Nice one! :) That seems to have done the trick, certainly hasn't crashed again since turning off geotagging. Thanks for the good tip. I hope this phone gets unlocked soon, the voda rom is pretty good so far but I doesn't feel like half the phone it could be with the right tweaking and...

Having done a search & a bit of a google it seems the default HTC camera is prone to crashing on other devices, it's happening on my new UK voda sensation. The camera works for a few minutes, then crashes to a black screen. If I clicked it again the screen brightens but the camera app does not...

I'm with you pal :o) I got mine from vodaphone this week, safe in the knowledge that the universe would conspire to get HTC to unlock it. But it will take some time to filter through to those of us who couldn't wait. So far though I'm finding it better than my previous HD2 with android -...

And me. Or else we wait for Typhoon to get to RC1?

Good lord. On the same page too. Dude, look up about 3 posts and read it.

Yay! Nice one dude. Shoulda searched the thread I guess, but good call on putting it on the first post. I'm now rocking CW version of cyanogen, and it is well nice :) Thanks alot for the work you have put it. One question ... are updates applied in the same way as flashing a rom? i.e. copy...

I hear what you are saying brother. But I'll be honest here ... I haven't installed this yet because the instructions don't seem that clear. You know what this place is like, affet a few hours on some threads you have to wade through page after page of the same bloody question and you start to...

Very nice indeed sir! Please post 'em. :)

On the surface this seems like a bit of a ripoff. But the simple fact is that many people do not want to tinker with their phones the way all us forum types do. I can compare this service to a guy who came round to "fix" my Mum's computer (unfortunately she lives in a different country...

Just to make you feel you are in company I have this issue too. It is the single biggest pain in the ass about android and it isdriving me maaaad. :) Still better than rocking WM though.

I'm trying to change to the MDJ 6.1 kernel but there is no 'system' folder in my desire_cs folder, or on the root of my storage card. I tried just copying the modules folder from MDJ 6.1 into the desire_cs folder but wifi just shows error. How did you copy over the modules in the system...

This build seems to be ok for me. Been running it for 3 days now without any real problems, no screen freezes (just minor lag sometimes), reasonable battery life, no problems with corrupting or losing market apps. On my first reboot it didn't keep my launcherpro owner info, but that's about...

Just installed the new ultimate version, and I am getting a wifi error. Can anyone point me in the direction of which modules need to be copied to which folders from which source to get it working?

Boy I'm glad to see this thread, I thought it was just me! :) I am having exactly the same issue, and have done since using android builds. The only workaround I have is to switch on plane mode, and then switch it off again which seems to work for an hour or two. But then the signal goes all...

I have been running 1.6 now since it came out - minimal screen freezes, functioning fine as a daily use phone, battery life is probably the same as WM, and killer looks! I have tried pretty much all the android builds, this one tops them all for stability, functions & style. Respect to the...

1) True. But the android OSis slightly sexier, the fonts are clearer, the icons look nicer, transition animations run a bit smoother and look a bit nicer, and overall it feels a bit more "now". 2) For me, android will run youtube properly and without too much delay in loading, it stays...

I tried to install this, and I believe I followed the instructions to the letter, but sense wouldn't load & I had to hard reset. I haven't tried yet with the new recommendations above, but will give it a go. I'm no developer, just an interested user. But I'm happy to guinea-pig my phone to...

Hurray! You know it makes sense. Hehe, makes sense ... get it, sense ... you know like sense ... oh, never mind. Gratz on the exams being done. Now, I want an android build with ... :) Sorry, I don't know what came over me. I guess I have read a few too many posts in the android forum and...

Good lad. You're learning! :)

Sounds like you have not put the files into an Android folder on your SD card. The chef forgot to mention it in the initial post, but there have been several posts about similar issues that have been fixed this way. (note ... SEVERAL posts)

Trying out version 1.2 here, all seems good so far! Nice and smooth, pretty responsive - except for the usualthings when downloading or installing market apps. No SOD or anything horrible. I tried to get google maps to find a GPS signal but no luck so far. This is the best and most stable...

Good post mate. Unfortunately this situation is not unfamiliar - let's be honest here, the devs should have expected this to happen, android on HD2 is a popular topic and will attract a fair number of people who have no idea of the etiquette involved. I dunno if there is a good way forward...

Yeah, I tried launcher pro. It is good, but it's just a blank canvas and I just can't find widgets that look anywhere near as cool as the HTC ones. If there is a small performance penalty for getting the sense look then I will have to live with it. All the other rss widgets I have seen so far...

Help me out here all you sense opposers ... what do people recommend as a homescreen alternative to sense, and does anyone know of good sense widget alternatives (rss, twitter, people) that look good & work good, especially on HD2?

Now, I am definately interested in exploring new homescreen options, so further posts in this thread in which users share great widget setups (or what have you)seems like a good way to turn it into something positive, and not just a lolflamewar. ;) I am totally new to android - never used it...

Nothing wrong with that. But making demands on developers is not fair, especially when those demands are for personal rom preferences rather than some kind of global bug/problem. I hope you see from the results of the poll so far that in this case sense is actually a popular option, so...

They are all beta realeases. Thanks for posting your bug report, but in future try to do that AFTER searching for similar posts, and then if you do find a NEW bug then add it to the already over-burdened threads that exist.

What is with people? What is with these calls for developers to cater form individual choices? The best thing any developer can do is create MORE choice to cater for MORE people. There are too many of these posts asking for personal choices, sometimes made in a rather demanding manner. Quit...

lol flame war! :) OK, calm down, calm down ... glad to see the passion there. This has been an interesting thread already, and has led me personally to check the customisations available for android in more detail, and it certainly seems that any fears have been reduced regarding...

After another hour or two it seems that desire v4 works better with auto-screen rotation swicthed off, and sense disabled in the winmo rom. I have been able to adjust the screen timeout to 30 secs & allow the screen to go to sleep and waken with pressing the end key - no sleep of death so far...

After a few hours with desire version 4 here is what I am noticing ... 1) CALLS WORKING GREAT!!!!!!!! (I'm on elegancia v10 rom, with 2.11 radio/o2 UK) Sound quality is good, probably even better than on the winmo rom, both ways - I can hera them & they can hear me, no crackling, no echo, only...

Indeed! Having both winmo & android on an hd2 seems an appropriate pay off for years of supporting mobile development on forums. :p ------------------------------------- Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App (on an android build on my hd2 - suck on that iPhart! :)

I found this ... http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955 It only syncs the calendar appointments, but it does update my google account whenever I update my outlook on the PC. As for contacts, I had to export mine from outlook as a .csv file and then import that...

I agree entirely. I think it's a shame what seems to be happening to winmo - I don't know how much credibility the forum-user community has ever had in the mobile devices world, but for me as a user it has been an exciting experience from day 1. My mobile experience has been interlinked with...

I agree with you about the developers. For a long time I thought that SBSH was the best software company around, but they abandoned their winmo apps in favour of iPone a long time ago and they lost pace with the htc sense/touchflo market and now their famous today apps are history, pretty much...

Yeah, I guess I am thinking of this in a purely selfish way. :) I imagine the part of the overall winmo ownership that bothers with all the tweaking is relatively small, so in the big picture I guess there are alot more people who rely on stock windows mobile roms that are lacking. Is android...

Here's the thing ... I have been using winmo smartphones since the first SPV hit the UK. I have always loved them for their customisability (did I make that word up?) ... customisingness ... you know what I mean :) With forums like this for constant tweaks and themes and apps and all sorts...

I have this working now! Thanks alot for your help michoob. :) The images only update every 6 hours on the web, so my wallpaper only changes every 6-8 hours or so when IPTweather updates after this - but it is kind of working like I wanted it to. IPT displays the current weather icon and...

I dunno. There are only really a couple of threads that are relevant, and you can keep up to date with progress on the irc channel. I seem to be keeping up ok by READING and SEARCHING. :)

I have been able to get the screen to full brightness after changing the settings & rebooting with the desire build, but it only seems to work as long as I run haret before sense loads into the windows rom - I am using the Jmz dual boot app. But it still goes back to dim after sleep mode like...

Am I right in thinking that the only build with sense in it is the desire build? None of the froyo builds have sense in them ... do they?

Just tried the new cotulla zImage with desire (and elegancia v10 rom) and can confirm the backlight issue - its just very dim. If you can manage to squint your eyes to see the menu & get to settings, if you manually change the backlight settings down & then back up again the screen does get a...

Hey Steve, just thought I'd post to say that version 10 is running all nice for me - I had issues with version 9.5 which I had posted about, but after endless hours of hard resetting and installing tweaks and apps I think I isolated the issue to a conflict between 2 weather apps! I think. :)...

Sorry, my explaination was rubbish! :) Yes, I am trying to use an IPTweather icon on S2U2 for the current weather, and an SBSH weather image as S2U2 wallpaper (on an HD2 not iPhone). I can select this manually in the S2U2 settings, but it seems that whenever IPTweather updates, the mortscript...
