PLEASE READ THIS POST AND UNDERSTAND IT CLEARLY BEFORE USING THIS ROM!
Heyo,
This ROM is now a port of the Nexus S Gingerbread ROM leak for the HD2. I would like to make it clear that this ROM may be unstable and not for everyday use! Since we're using a version of Android designed for a different device, we may have issues. The leaked build I'm using is available here - some modding is required though.
Starting from 0.05, my builds come with a 96MB Data.img file to get you out of trouble. I will provide data.img files that are 128MB, 256MB, 512MB and 768MB in size. You can make your own image via a terminal on Linux like this (don't type the dollar sign or the stuff behind it)
Code:
[email protected]:~$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/Android/folder/data.img bs=1M count=128M
[email protected]:~$ mke2fs /path/to/Android/folder/data.img
(answer 'y' to the question when mke2fs says "data.img is not a special block device, proceed? [y,n]")
Installation
Extract the "Android" folder in the ZIP file below to your MicroSD Card, pop it into your HD2, open File Explorer from WinMo, find the Android folder, tap CLRCAD.exe and then Haret.exe and watch the sparks fly.
For patches, extract the files in the patch archive to your MicroSD Card, overwriting any existing files.
Downloads
You can download the ROM from my server below. Please don't use download accelators, they will make my VPS cry...
LATEST VERSION IS 0.5, PLEASE DO NOT USE OLDER VERSIONS AS YOU WILL BE ASKED TO UPGRADE IF YOU SAY SOMETHING IS NOT WORKING ON THOSE OLDER BUILDS!
Version 0.01 > Get the goodness here! <
Version 0.02 (Patch only, download v0.01 first!) > Get the goodness here! <
Version 0.03 (Only a data.img for people who are having boot problems) > Get the goodness here! <
Version 0.05 > Get the goodness here! <
Version 0.05 requires 7-Zip to extract

WOW !
Keep up the amazing work !!!
much appreciated.
I will try the build now.
Cool thank you.
thanks
excellent work,at less we can have a try for 2.3,thanks.keep working on 2.3
As I've said, you won't get into the Android UI, but if you can confirm that the kernel is getting stuck at "init: untracked process X exited unexpectedly", that would be appreciated.
Nice work, thanks for sharing. The init.rc file you mention is linked to a pastebin link in the original dump thread. Should be easy to search.

the click-me still not working for me on windows 7 x64
To get the patch work in windows 7 all you need to do
is place the "ThemePro" folder on you desktop!!
mine wasn't working either until i did that
nope still not working
then also try to enter the
"properties" of both the '.bat' files in the directory and play with the "compatibility" options.
hmmm, I don't see why it doesn't work, I'll do some research about x64 because it works fine x32
Can you post up the path to your desktop please (if you don't want to show username, replace with ** but if there's a space in your username include it clearly)
Found a better way of calling the other files, it will work with everyone
(sorry for issues VeeDubZ)
You will be able to run Theme-Pro from anywhere you want, no need to place on Desktop
The Work Directory will still be placed to Desktop by default, I'm adding an option to let you specify the directory you wish to put it
(e.g Where would you like to place your Work Directory?: C:\Users\shoey-n\My Documents)
The update will be up today, and I hope to merge most of Theme-Pro 3.0 features by tomorrow
Hi shoey-n,
Why do you use this command line in CLICK-ME.bat :
call "%homedrive%%homepath%\Desktop\ThemePro\menu.bat"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
instead of this one :
call "menu.bat"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
?
I had the same issue than VeeDubZ with the original click-me.bat and by using this command line, it solved it.
Cheers
Thanks for the suggestion, I just noticed that when I was testing out my new way of doing it. That way will be much easier. I'm updating it with that now
New version should be up tonight
//edit
Sorry guys, I've updated the script but haven't had time to upload ( internet is really slow, so it'll take about 15 minutes )
So I'll do a major update for the release tomorrow, just for you lot
thanks for the fix, no worries about the problems with it, i started using the linux version for now, your version will just save me rebooting to use that one.
my path is the standard path that a user would use without any spaces C:\Users\vaughn\
Thanks for the progress update, looking forward to the release.

Alpha 3 is out, few changes and enhancements to this version
Been tested outside of ThemePro but not inside. Hopefully new method works (hopefully uploaded right one )
Added transparent notification drawer mod (uploading for themepro 3.1 Mac/Linux in 5mins, compiling it and adding to scripts right now)
Changelog is up on first post
alpha 3 broke it all for me... none of the options work, Cmd spits out an error about "er" not being a system variable, and not being able to find the directory...
That means I made a typo somewhere, the way I done it means I only have to check 2 files so should be easy to fix, thanks for reporting the bug, fix will be up in the morning

NOTE: This is a thread for the build devs.
Users who want to try this solution themselves should head over to TheAgent1982's thread: RTL Support Project, or go to the Hebrew guide at htcaddicts.com.
Update: Hey devs. Just so you'd know, we're even willing to do the framework.jar patching for you!
All we ask from you is to deodex your builds, and include the patched framework.jar (which appears to be almost the same for all builds, barring sense/non-sense differences).
PM if you're willing to let us help
Hey devs
First of all, thanks to all the devs who are doing a great work with everything!
There's one thing though that's a pox on all Android builds (even native android devices), and that is full-on right-to-left support. What do I mean?
Sure, there are Hebrew (and I assume Arabic) fonts in Android, and MOST applications work just fine, with the notable exceptions of Gmail, Google maps, and most native Google-apps, who all display Hebrew backwards.
A far more stressing issue, however, is that ALL android applications without exception display numbers backwards in right-to-left texts (so 10 becomes 01, 12 becomes 21, etc. It can get really confusing really fast).
Any way, there exists a solution for both these problems that can USUALLY be fixed with a medium amount of experience on native Android devices, but requires a bit of a hassle for HD2 owners.
Hopefully, you devs can incorporate this fix to future releases, once the fixed files are obtained it shouldn't be too hard to spread in the future.
Here's the process:
BTW, This only works on completely deodexed builds!
First, you have to download this zip file. It basically contains the fixed files and some other stuff you devs probably won't need.
The fix then involves extracting 'framework.jar' from the phone, and extracting the 'classes' file thusly:
Code:
java -jar baksmali-1.2.2.jar -o classes classes.dex
Then, in the subsequently created "classes" folder, you need to replace the files in "/classes/android/graphics/" and "classes/android/text" with the relevant files in the aforementioned zip file (from the corresponding folders, of course, under "files/froyo/")
After that is done, you need to re-create 'classes.dex' using:
Code:
java -Xmx512M -jar smali-1.2.2.jar classes -o classes_new.dex
Then, replace the old 'classes.dex' in 'framework.jar' with the new one (after renaming it back to 'classes.dex', of course), and push the new and fixed 'framework.jar' back to the phone.
Reboot, and voila: full-on Left-to-Right support!
I'm sure you devs have far better ways of including these fixed files without having to edit the entire thing every time, but what would I know?
We would be extremely appreciative to all you builds devs if you could incorporate those fixed 'classes' files in future builds, it'll save us a ton of work.
Also, if any of you guys also need volunteers for beta-testing this solution (as I'm sure you don't have Hebrew content to test it with), feel free to PM me.
Thank you for listening, and keep up the great work!
((PS, thanks to member silverbluem who helped simplify the process))

i use the htc sense to read sms so
the msg wont appear word4 word3 word2 word1
+1 for that. although i am using bifbif ver 1.2 with CM6 and its OK here.
i've test it on Mdj Evolution 2.3 and it work perfect:
i never copied the files to /graphic only to /text folder
to put the Framework.jar in the device because we dont have recovery mode
use this commands:
to pull the file:
adb pull system/framework/framework.jar
install the attached files
adb push (your file location/framework.jar) system/framework/framework.jar
after putting the file restart the device
restart might take 5-10 min first run after applying the file
thanks

This sure does absolve us of needing to use Linux and needing all that messy system.ext2 stuff. I'll give it a try.
Still, it'd be nice to have these updated files already incorporated into future builds.

My WM rom is OzDROID2.0, my Android rom is MDJ FroyoHD 3.7
Well, the phone book was never a problem for me, only hybrid text/numbers like in text messages etc.
Anyway, turns out I didn't modify framework.jar correctly, so I tried again using the script, and this time the phone just won't boot (like when I used Linux, it just hangs at boot screen).
Edit: Tried all day, all combinations of 'texts' files and with or w/o the 'graphics' file, and it always either just didn't fix anything (when I did the fix manually), or didn't boot at all (when I tried the script). This got me to conclude that I must not be doing it right, or else it would fail to boot for me as well (at least, I'm not even considering me being able to totally fix it myself )
Not a week ago, i was referred to the Samsung Galaxy S's newest ROM which came from Orange..
The rom includes (to my understanding) all the latest fixes regarding left to right text and even a hebrew version of Swype
It is easily retrievable. Obviously, it isn't legal to extract their work and use it to manutfacture a widespread ROM... but you can use it for personal use if you want to check how to fix that annoying hebrew thing.

Hebrew RTL Support
For those who are asking, i have made a working framework.jar , time ago.
It is working for most FROYO Sence, CM6.+ does not need it...
BUT NOT Desire HD Sence ( Because is is odex files, not only *.jar).
If needed i will upload it, and put a tutorial how to make it work...
Good Day!
RTL HEbrew
Please do that !
Thanks
Framework.jar
Tomorrow i will post the file with short tut how to put it, i must say that Ambious bring a good tut directly from iAndroid
Any way, Ambious, if i will upload the file please stick it to 1st page.
For now, good night...
This fix is a must for all RTL language users.
As mentioned, CM6+ already includes the fix and is working pretty good!
Problem is, for some reason, CM6 builds are rare...
I tried a few Sense builds but eventually i came back to a CM6 based build
because of it's support for RTL languages.
Devs, please include this fix in you builds, to make them as much accessible
as possible.
Thanks.

Thank you
However, as a Sense user myself, I'm pretty anxious to see if a fix can be applied to any of the Sense builds (especially DesireHD, which is my current build).
Well Organized Post
I have made well organized post for it:
RTL Support Post.
I must say, it will NOT Work for Desire HD for now, because it is ODEX and jar combined, and as you have read at iAndroid, for now there is NO solution for it,
and i do not have the experience and time to learn and convert it, since i am a student.
But i will give it a try between the semesters...
Hey,
The HD2 Desire HD builds are fully deodexed.
Froyo HD 3.7 for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795914
Maybe you could use them for preparing a RTL fix for when the deodexed desire HD ROMS come and for us HD2 android users.
Cheers.
It may be my semi-n00bness, but all my attempts to create a fix for DesireHD 3.7 failed.
Also, trying the supplied fix in the thread above on MDJ Sense Clean (non HD based) failed, wouldn't boot.
Hopefully someone can get it to work, and better yet - that the devs will incorporate those fixes in their builds.

This rom is extremely alpha, it is more of a proof of concept than anything.
Just in case you didnt understand, this rom is highly experimental.
Flash at your own risk. If you have any ideas to make this rom better, please, by all means, contact me.
This rom was made using the sdk dump that I pulled out yesterday, however Darkstone1337 made the rom bootable and passed on the knowledge,
then M-deejay took that knowledge and made the core of this rom. I am just putting some things in it to make it a little better.
Installation
Extract the "Android" folder in the ZIP file below to your MicroSD Card, pop it into your HD2, open File Explorer from WinMo, find the Android folder, tap CLRCAD.exe and then Haret.exe, and you're off!

Im gonna pull this straight from infinitybiff when I say, "I'm not a dev, nor do I claim to be, yes this is easy, sharing is caring. If your phone explodes, not it."
This rom is extremely alpha, it is more of a proof of concept than anything.
Just in case you didnt understand, this rom is highly experimental.
Flash at your own risk. If you have any ideas to make this rom better, please, by all means, contact me.
This rom was made using the sdk dump that I pulled out yesterday, however Darkstone1337 made the rom bootable and passed on the knowledge,
then M-deejay took that knowledge and made the core of this rom. I am just putting some things in it to make it a little better.
Installation
Extract the "Android" folder in the ZIP file below to your MicroSD Card, pop it into your HD2, open File Explorer from WinMo, find the Android folder, tap CLRCAD.exe and then Haret.exe, and you're off!
Downloads
Im gonna say version 0.1 http://www.mediafire.com/?7o7mgkqpb3falg6

Thats Gingerbread for ya
am i just stiupid or is my english too bad for understanding this?^^
when i read ROM, my brain says "u have to flash it"
but installation says:
"Extract the "Android" folder in the ZIP file below to your MicroSD Card, pop it into your HD2, open File Explorer from WinMo, find the Android folder, tap CLRCAD.exe and then Haret.exe, and you're off!"
so what exactly is the improvement in this version?^^
edit: its 2.3...now its makes sense^^

Slight increase in speed because of MDJs S7.5 kernel, and atoores data.img. I still dont know why, but that data.img helps with warding off boot issues.
This boots very quickly!
Has a long way to go but its awesome to see gingerbread booting on our hd2s. If you need any testing done, I'd be more then happy to do what I can.
Thanks to those who have put the work into this so far!

Just copied, Boot was very fast. The preparing SD Card, and Boom Black Screen for now 5 Mins. Just waiting
Ok finally start android, boot very fast, and i see avery 5 minutes i lost signal cell
Say Hello World!
Send from my HD2 gingerbread.!
What I like;
-No chopper on scrolling, but maybe is because SDK don't have hardware acceleration, let's see in future.
- fast data
Great first try of getting Gingerbread on our beloved HD2. Great to see that it boots up. Hope there will be new builds with extended functionality in the future.
Big thanks to the devs!
My experience so far.
- Quick boot
- Installs .apk files from the AdroidApps folder
- A lot of lag. In fact it hangs most of the time
- No or very bad signal
- No or very bad data connection
- menu graphics are messed up
Video
Wow,
thanks so much!
I was able to record a short video of my HD2 running SPGinger:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-bBS8Ihyj4
Of course there are some bugs but data connection is fine for me (Vodafone Germany).
Also I can install the most apps with the FileExplorer.
I think in about one week we'll all run around with the perfect GingerHD2beast!
So long.

--- FIRST OF ALL, PLEASE READ POST 2 FOR UPDATED FAQ. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR ISSUES, MOST PROBABLY YOU WILL FIND THE ANSWER THERE WITHOUT NEEDING TO POST A NEW MESSAGE ---
I'm not a dev. I'm just a curious user that want to learn, fail, search, retry, fail again and then succeed also thanks to people here that helped me with tips and knowledge sharing
This is a personal build made for my self, based on DESIRE HD.
Is 90% stock, % battery indicator and some animations/icons.
It's fully DEODEXED so you can theme it as you want.
I tried also to keep most of the apps, wallpapers and other stuff in it.
But most important it uses DATA.IMG on SDCARD so you dont have to worry about storage limite on LEO512
Please note: this, as happenend whe using Android from SD, could cause data corruption and causes a little lag during app installation. There is nothing I can do to solve those two issues. You are warned!
Credits and thanks:
-Cotulla and DFT for making all this possible
-darkstone for his big help

-crawling
-ocm

INSTRUCTIONS
- You need at least MAGLDLR 1.10
- Download the Data size package you want
- Unzip it and copy all the content to your SD root respecting the folder structure. Insert the SD in the HD2
IF YOU NOT DO THIS BEFORE, YOUR INSTALLATION WILL FAIL
IF YOU ARE ON A 1024 LEO YOU CAN AVOID THIS.
- Download the RAFDROID HD package
- Unzip it on your computer, enter in MAGDLR bootloader, choose USB flasher, connect your HD2 to your computer and use INSTALL.EXE
- Wait the rebooting. Keep always the SD inside.
- First install takes up to 5 min
- Enjoy
- As all HD build, initially this will be slugghis and lagging, specially if you select to restore your google settings. The build will become fast after some hours and a couple of reboots.

WARNING 1) Data system changed between RafDroid HD1 and RafDroid HD2. Now you need a "config.txt" in the data2sd folder. I suggest to old 1.0 users to download the new packages here to be sure that all works.
WARNING 2) I assure compatibility only with 512 and 1024 data images. Using bigger images, specially more than 2gb, could cause issues (no boot, errors installing apps...)
WARNING 3) I suggest always to start with a fresh data.img. Anyway you can try too keep your old data.img but I cannot assure you that you will have no bugs. Important is to keep the "data2sd" folder with the config.txt inside.
DATA PACKAGE for RAFDROID HD 2.0 512MB -> http://www.multiupload.com/MA47VX8ALS
DATA PACKAGE for RAFDROID HD 2.0 1024MB -> http://www.multiupload.com/6BA2EZ49L0

If you need more space, you can replace the data.img with ones bigge but I NOT SUGGEST THIS. We have clues that data.img bigger than 2gb causes issues. So please, if you want to avoid bugs, stay with 1gb maximum that is plenty space for everything.
DONATE:

I dont think it's fair to ask for donations because all this was possible thanks to the people credited above.
Anyhow, because some one pm'ed me asking to donate, and becouse I spent a lot of time in this, if you want to buy me a coffee for all the time I spent, you can do this here DONATE
Anyway I would suggest to donate to Cotulla and DFT team and other devs.
BE ADVISED: THIS BUILD, CAUSE IT'S SIZE, WILL WORK ONLY WITH THIS METHOD OF DATA2SD. IT'S TOO BIG TO WORK WITHOUT IT. EXCEPT FOR 1024 LEO WHER IT *SHOULD*(MUST BE TESTED) WORK WITHOUT DATA.IMG
If you want DesireHD standard fonts, download this package and replace the entire /system/fonts content with the ones included, using droid explorer or adb, after first boot
http://www.multiupload.com/5EXLIPO3N4
If you want the stock look this is the stock framework-res.apk. i will not explain how to mess with it, google if you dont know. anyway be careful. messing with this file could cause loop reboots and you will have to reflash

FAQ - QUESTIONS and BUG FIXES
PLEASE READ
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
q) I'm having high battery drain
a) Try reboot. Try disabling gps in location. As you can see from the screenshot I have 4mA with WIFI active! Also be careful. If during google account setup you choose to backup/restore all your data, the sync process will be dramatic heavy because it has to reinstall all your apps. It could need a couple of hours to settle. Also high battery drain could be caused by SD. try another one.
q) It's really laggy!!!!
a) as all Desire HD builds this is BIG! This needs at least 10-15 minutes after boot to be usable. Then try to use it for 5-6 hours.. and do a couple of reboots.. you will see that the speed will improve. After 24 hours of use and 4-5 rebots this will be really fast.
q) I have no GPS or the fix is really slow
a) Firs fixt can take up to 5 minutes. just wait. If still not works, try to change the gps zone in the config.txt (read below)
q) I have low quadrant scores
a) yes, this is true. This is because data sync is enabled by default. You can try to disable it but this will give you more risks of data corruption.
q) Can I unmount the SD while in use or connect the phone as mass storage to my pc while in use
a) No. This will cause data corruption. Power down the pone and use an SD card reader to copy your files.
q) I have no SU permission!!!
a) Install z4root (google for it) and execute permaroot. Reboot.
q) It not boots
a) be sure that the ".config" file is in your SD on the root. and there is also the folder "data2sd" with "data.img" inside. If still no boot, try to reformat your SD card, copy the img again, and retry.
q) I have no data/3G/HSDPA
a) probably you have to set your apn manually. google it for tips on how to do and what settings are need for your carrier
q) How do I remove BOOTSOUND / How do I change bootanim
a) bootsound and bootanim are located in /system/etc/customer. Just delete android_audio.mp3 if you dont want sound
ABOUT THE CONFIG.TXT FILE
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can change some parameters directly in the config.txt before booting:
Code:
data_sd=0
- 0, default, use nand userdata, THIS WILL CAUSE NO BOOT for 512 LEO
- 1, enable external data.img support (/sdcard/data2sd/data.img)
data_size=512
- size of data.img, only work when data.img support enabled and first install if you dont have a data.img.. it will create for you. No need to specify it if you already have a data.img in the data2sd folder
data_sync=1
- 0, fast, default, disable sync option when mount data.img MAY CAUSE DATA CORRUPTION. I SUGGEST TO NOT USE THIS
- 1, safe, enable sync option when mount data.img, use this if experiencing data corruption
lcd_density=240
- size of icons
gps_zone=europe
- country string for better gps fix. you can find your country code here [URL="http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/@"]http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/@[/URL]
Having the DATA PACKAGE 1024MB now Waiting For the RAFDROID HD 1.0 now

why you're not using latest Ace RUU (RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3)?

isnt it better to have PPP rather than RMNET because RMNET is slower.
having said that, has there been a fix for PPP because im lossing network bar frequently.
BTW thanks for the build, will be testing it out soon
When is this boiled going to be out? I wanna try out this build as I can't seems to install much of applications on any otherbrom asnitbonly gives me less then 100mb. And nownthe current remaining soqcenisnlessnthen ten mb. Can't waitbto try out a new and a better rom. How aboutbthe cam coder is the quality better?

Good work Raf, been waiting for this. I've downloaded the data package and was wondering if it will be possible to use my old data.img file from another SD HD build and possibly use a 2GB data.img file too?

Dont know.. maybe there will be bugs, but try it.. if this not work or you have bugs, delete all things from SD, reflash NAND, and start again
about 2gb data, yes, you can. just replace the file. I will upload 2GB and 4GB for convenience, later as soon I have time
This build will be awesome when it runs correctly... Is it right, it uses for data the data.img on the sd card, when you release a new uodate we can safe our data and can make a update without loosing my apps ? This will be great news ?!
so will all my texts get saved to the sd card?
as on other NAND builds my phone can barely operate after a couple days use due to insufficient storage.
also, what determines whether I should get the 512MB or 1024MB data package?

Not true,atleast not for me. (the build i use in my sig)
Sinds NAND rmnet is as fast for me as ppp,same up and download speed.
In the time with sd card builds ppp was faster for me,now not (for me)
Just test it with speedtest.net app in the market for free
