Hi there,
I want to make first steps in Android on my HTC HD2, but I´m unsure to do it.
The Problem is - I have absolutely no practice on Android and need to switch back to WinMobile if I don´t like AndroidOS...
Is there a way to switch back in case of wurst case?
Sorry for that bad english, but schooltime was a long, long time ago...
Update:
I thought, android replaces WinMob... Am I right? some threads made me unsure..
Or will Android simply running in a VM on WinMob?
Thanks for help
Patrick
Hi Patrick,
Let me try to answer that one before someone hits you that you have to start reading!
There is absolutely no problem to test this out!
All that happens is that you start Android from WinMobile so Winmobile will stay on your HD2.
You have to 'install' Android on your SD-card. I placed 'install' between ' ' because you just copy the files on the card and it works like that!
If I was you I would get a clean SD-card and copy the Android build on it.
Just make sure that you have a folder called Android with files called Zimage etc copied in that folder. Copy the 1GB data.img file also in that Android folder (makes 1st start faster).
So now that you have done that just maybe reboot your HD2.
Go to your speicherkarte and VERY important !! click first CLRCAD.exe. It will do nothing but it is needed. Then you can press haret.exe which will start Android.
The first time it can take minutes.
Ok now go and enjoy Android and use the search button to look for answers and problems.
OK, Thanks...
I´ve started reading a lot, but it was still too much for me...
All I needed to know was answered by you in 20 words, I hoped to become an answer like this...
thanks a lot
Happy android, bro
try the angry bird and guns&glory, the phone will glue on your hand whole week XD

Android ersetzt WM nicht, es wird einfach nur von WM aus von der SD-Karte gestartet. Wenn du dein HD2 wieder neustartest wird WM wieder gestartet
Wenn dir Android nicht mehr gefällt (was ich bezweifle) schmeißte es einfach von der SD Karte runter und gut ist
good form
nice to see a noob question not being flamed, good form lukesan

Can someone post the Original german O2 XDA Orbit 2 ROM please?
Thanks very much!
Oh, I'd like to have it too. I hate it, but it's neccessary if you send the device for repairment Forgot to dump mine before flashing
I could dump if I knew how. The guide in the wikipedia contains some broken links...
So not all of the apps needed are available there.

Well, I have sent devices 2 times to O2 for repair (XDA Mini S and XDA Neo). Both times they sent me new ones (the best option ). And I had flashed them both with non-official ROMs, then flashed the original German one before sending. I'm not sure though whether I'd done Hard SPL changes - I'm not very much into it - I just followed some guides back then
So could someone please give me a setp by step guide, how to dump my O2 rom?
Thanks!
Dump
I dumped according to instructions but I don't really know what to do with the .raw files. Anyway, hope this helps:

So did you dump the German O2 Orbit 2 ROM?

Jap, the WIKI-ELF-ROM-Dump entry.
The link to the toolset is broken, but google knows everything
I extracted all the RAW files, treated them according to the WIKI and the result in the end was a nice RUU_signed.nbh weighing 103'789kb. I'm uploading right now. Will post the link when done.

I dumped my ROM. I followed all instructions given in the ELF-ROM-DUMP WIKI. In the end I had a RUU_signed.nbh, 103'789KB in size, so around 101MB.
Unfortunately, while uploading, my notebook went to standby. I'll upload it again, it takes me 30 minutes. Stay tuned, I'll post the megaupload link in this thread.

Since this is an English forum, I'll answer in English.
Yes and no. You can decompile the ROM dump and this way you gain access to all the files in the ROM. If you can decompile the nbh file, I don't know... I'll see if I can find the fms_api.dll in my backup files.
Edit: RAR attached

Hi All, just for your information:
On the German Samsung website i found the FAQ item [19123] which says that Gingerbread is coming to Germany on 06.06.2011
So I start a chat with a support guy and asked for the missing update. His answers are:
Cause of some problems the Update is deleayed
They work hard on it to relase the update within the next few days
And they will release Gingerbread 2.3.4!!!
I can't wait to see if this is true!
I hope so... 2.3.4 would be fine.

I apologize for my German post, too!
You can reach the FAQ Item by the following steps:
Visit Samsung[dot]de
Click Support (upper right corner)
Click FAQ
Search for "Gingerbread"
this is what i was told from samsung:
"Es wird kein deutsches Update der Version 2.3.3 geben. Die Version die zum Update angeboten wird, wird 2.3.4 sein.
Einen definitiven Termin kann ich Ihnen nicht nennen. Meiner Meinung nach wird es in den nächsten Tagen für freie Geräte soweit sein."
NICE!!!
Well, i heard the same a few minutes ago from the support. Maybe without the battery drain bug by default
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
AWESOME!! Can't wait to use odin
faq is telling about 2.3 not 2.3.4 in particular and i was unable to confirm this revelation in two languages samsung call centers =)
so my guess someone made a joke on the line there - no wonder it is hot as hell ;d
but ofc i would realy like that it was no joke!
Read the first post again. This info comes from support guy not faq page.
Usually employees get fired for false info or embarrasing moments.
lol read my post again =)

i called two call centers and they did not confirmed that
as well as polish samsung twitter something like two weeks ago but that was question regarding polish version only... but still
you call and tell us
Were those 2 centres aware of 06.06 date mentioned in faq?
it is 08.06 already
waiting patiently how this will develop
One more quote:
[15:43:20] Chikess:
ich habe gehört, dass anstelle von 2.3.3, 2.3.4 direkt in deutschland ausgerollt werden soll, stimmt diese aussage?
[15:48:41] Ralf Bender, Kundenberater Mobiltelefone:
Ja, das stimmt. In Deutschland wird es nur die neue Version 2.3.4. geben.

In english:
me:
i heard that instead of 2.3.3, 2.3.4 would be rolled out in germany, is that right?
samsung: yes, thats true. In germany only the new 2.3.4 will be available.

I know it is 8th already. But the question is did they know about the date. If they had no idea, then of course they say no to you.
maybe thats some new inside decision, as i said my info is about two weeks old
on the other hand after releasing test version of 2.3.4 for such a crapphone as galaxy mini who knows what will follow next
on one more hand why not release latest update to sgs2 first (it brings talk with video for example) so why not sgs2? maybe for test on earlier model or maybe they are talkin bout #2 from begining ;]
maybe because the sgs2 is more in the child age rather than the sgs, lets hope, that the 2.3.4 update would that right as we wanted it - and please no tw4 wishes
Gud news. No reason to use cm7 2.3.4 then

Menu -> Settings -> Date & Time -> Choose Timezone
Use "Mitteleuropäische Zeit (Amsterdam) GMT +1:00". That's the correct setting for your location.
Check date and time and correct it, if they are incorrect.
Now activate "Automatic (Vom Netzwerk bereit gestellte Werte verwenden)"
Hth,
Ponder
PS. And now for germans
Menü -> Einstellungen -> Datum & Uhrzeit
Haken bei "Automatisch" entfernen
Zeitzone wählen
Wähle "Mitteleuropäische Zeit (Amsterdam) GMT +1:00". Das ist die richtige Einstellung für Tiengen.
Dann Uhrzeit (und Datum) richtig stellen, falls sie falsch sind.
Haken bei "Automatisch" setzen.
Fertig
Okey thanks
I will try it.
I will write later.
I try it and it doesnt work.
What can i do?
All sms comes with wrong time or it's only from one friend? What about time from other operators? Other frends? And try tu put SIM to other phone and check the time. You will see it's huaweis problem or operator.
Sent from my ragelis
Strangely I have the same problem as well. The SMS clock is 2 hours behind for me but I am at GMT+2. I believe SMS application (WhatsApp Messenger also has the same problem) retrieves time information without time zone information.
Since I am encountering this problem maybe for a month, I do not believe it is operator related. I am using EliteROM 9.6 at the moment but I had the same issue lately in ret4rt's MIUI on .35 kernel.
I have fix the Problem With sms time fix i Download the Freeware in the market

I thought there's no way to edit RBM files to date? I might try my hands on something (using ho1ods source) myself, but that might take a long time.
Alright, I've taken a look at the RBM files internal structure, and it doesn't look any good :-/.
While the internal structure itself is actually pretty easy, the problem lies in the embedded images. Four(!) different compression methods are used: LZ16, LZ32, QMG16 and QMG32. No way that I can do this all on my own. I could do decode/encode for LZ16/LZ32, but QMG is used for most.
The only chance that I see right now is, IF RBM is also used for Samsungs Android FWs that we'll get support from this side.
Maybe RBM step by step..
Step 1 disable Pictures... like here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27932409&postcount=124
Step 2 could be replace content... or replace by other Pic from other RBM...
If I have more time... I will play again with bada SDK...
Maybe easier to try modified RBM instead RC1 flashing on device...
Best Regards

Hello everybody,
have a huge problem, some time ago came out the Experience Update 6.0 for the shield.
Updated, then stood on the screen any text with ADB, I did not photograph it, then restarted.
Since then, the shield hangs at the start in this green logo, even after several hours.
Have googled and also found how to get into the root menu (or what that means), but does not work with various shortcuts.
Does anyone know advice?
Is there any way to flash or reset the shield?
Or is there an expert who can and lives near Iserlohn?
PLEASE HELP !!!

Hallo,
das hat geklappt, aber nur dann, wenn die Shield mit einem PC über das mitgelieferte USB Kabel angeschlossen wurde.
Das wusste ich nicht.
Ich bekomme jetzt folgendes Bild angezeigt:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lnMiMUTG8hjI-EXBn7UL2qfMjgU0DiyB/view
Die Shield hängt per USB an einem Windows 10 PC.
Im Gerätemanager wird APX angezeigt:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1v37pNnpYB7Gk8QBmaI8jAqNg2ZajKL4T/view
Habe mir die Treiber
SHIELD_Family_WHQL_USB_driver_201506
von der Nvidia Seite installiert. Scheinbar sind die nicht für Windows 10 geeignet.
Jetzt komme ich wieder nicht weiter
