Hi Guys,
Having spent a couple of weeks riding the MDJ Nand Gingerbread rollercoaster and read over 10,000 posts I am still none the wiser on getting navigation working successfully.
I have the MDJ CyanogenMOD7 NAND ROM, 2.15 radio and CWM installed and get a GPS fix and lock.
However as soon as I try and use google Navigation it drops after a few minutes, lags and give poor accuracy and is basically unusable.
I have implemented gauner1986's gps file fix and 777 the files in question, downloaded GPS status and got the A-GPS data but still no improvement.
Some people seem to be reporting no problems but lots more have the same issue.
Can anybody offer something else I might have missed
Thanks

Thanks anyway, I love Android but again need navigation for work.
I was running MDJ [SD] Froyo Revolution V1.7 and it worked fine, so i am thinking it is a Gingerbread issue.
Hopefully one of the smart ones will sort it
Thanks

the fix is not the problem, it's getting further information from the satelittes after the initial fix.
@ waspsl: same problem here, I'm following the MDJ thread from page 600 and something but with over a 100 posts a day I can't follow anymore.
Searched the web but still no resolution. So I think we will have to wait somewhat longer.
PS: if you have a bt gps dongle, you still can use your gps software. everything works fine here with an EXTERNAL BT Donloge

hey,
i am just interested what combination of rom, hspl, radio-rom and android version everyone of you is using. I am reading that some persons have no problems, other have big problem and they are using the same android version. So if you want to give everyone some information, just write down something like:
ROM – HSPL – Radio_ROM – Android_version – what is not working
If you don’t like the thread, you simple should not answer. But I think that people who have problems are interested, what combinations the persons have who are using android without problems.
My combinations:
Chuckydroidrom 5.8.10 – HSPL 2.08 – Radio 2.12.50.02_2 – Mattc1.4
everything works fine, but the market for example is still laggy (and I have the problems everyone has who is using mattc1.4)
sorry for my bad English, I am german and my last lesson is years ago
Artemis V25 FRA – HSPL 2.08 – Radio 2.12.50.02_2 – MattcFroyorc1.4
All features works as designed but huge latency sometime with the interface : phone blocked for 3 or 5 sec then I got control back.
When enabling audio speaking when calling sometime the call failed or the audio speaker is not working : I've to recall my contact.
thanks a lot for your work. I had a G1 before HD2 and I'm glad to experiment again the Droid adventure. This I couldn't not do without all the "Droid members" and "Linus Torvald".
Keep on going
Kind regards
After many tweaks and tries... I am 100% happy. NO ISSUES except camcorder of course.
It is rock solid, fast, and most of the time I forget this is not a "true" android loaded device.

That's about it. Other than the system2.ext replacement for the GPS, there is nothing else.
Calls are loud and clear, no robot talk, data pulls from 3G and HSPSA and switches seemlessly between my WiFi spots I hit throughout the day.
Also, if it matters... in WinMo is have all switches on under Comm Manager. Data, Phone, 3G, WiFi. And Data Roaming is on in Android.
Loving it.

I too suffered SOD on several different Android builds, ROMS, and Zimages.
I finally have a set-up where I'm not getting SOD anymore
Also, no robot voice (never had it), no 3G problems, and GPS works...though it takes a while to lock on my location (I know how to fix it, just haven't gotten around to it).
These settings are for TMOUS:
WM ROM: Chucky Rom

I've been using Android consistently for 2.5 days. Battery life still sucks, but its reasonably fast, and very stable.

What kind of audio issues you're talking about?
I have used radio 2.14.50.4 comes with stock 3.14, but it gave me some echoes with some builds, then I reverted back to 2.12.50.02 and didn't any problems with it.

Ok, I will add this to the list.
Audio issues
I dont know whether it is audio issues or due to signal interference,this is what i did and found out
1) i installed the miri rom that froyostone recommends and the radio 2 14 50 04, i called my friend who was in the same house (with my home wireless on) there was a lot of echoing as soon as i turn the speaker mode on on either phones(other phone is samsung highlight).there was minimal echo present when i did with speaker off.
2)i flashed the new energy rom standard build and installed the radio 2 10 50 26 , and the froyostone 3.1 android build and called my friend who was at home with home wireless on.there was minimal echo with both or either phone speakers on when calling but none with speakers off. Then i did the same after my friend returned to his home and i called him from my phone(hd2) with either / both speakers on there was no echo on either ends.
Conclusion i dont know why i was getting the echo in my house, is the us version slightly different in hardware other than the rom/ram on it. Or the radio signal frequency interference, you can try this at home and please let me know what happens.
I dont know whether darkstone uses us hd2 or non us hd2.but the
energy rom is highly specific for us hd2 model ,i dont have any issues with it now.
US HD2
I think it will be good for all us hd 2 users to use the us hd2 specific roms for android testing for better results
I tested many Android ROMs... as some one already said.. some builds has robo voice issues.. so you can't say that all android builds are OK with TMOUS
Keep testing and update the thread

1. format your sd card to fat32. Copy the android folder to SD.
2. unload all today plugins including sense.
3. turn off voice command in settings.
4. reboot, run clrcad.exe and haret.exe as soon as possible after boot up.
I manage 4-5 mah draw in standby, 12-14 hours of use with normal usage (30 minutes of calls, 20 to 30 SMS, 30 minutes of web browsing). If you wait too long to run clrcad.exe and haret.exe, the minimum power drain was 54 mah in standby. YMMV
Ok i have had a few versions on Android running now but seem to have the same issue with every one, which is ramdomly loosing data connection although it is showing that it has. My question is has it got anything to do with the WM ROM and Radio etc im Running or is it going to be the Android Build.
I have

No android on there at the Mo as I have just formatted the card I did have Mdeejay Evo Sense v.23 Revolution
Can you help ?

If you have had all PPP builds (which I suspect you have), these data drops are normal. There are ways to improve stability, look around in the development section and your build thread, or switch to an RMNET build if you really want a stable (but slower) connection. If you're on RMNET already, you'll need someone more advanced to help you but your build's thread would be a good starting point.
Ok cheers, are my ROM and Radio ok as far as you know ?
The ROM and Radio is ok. In the android dev section you'll find this wrapper. Try it out. And I recommend you to use hastarin 8.5 kernel. Seems to improve the connection stability again.
Edit: Hastarin 8.5
This Android system is on SD card and running well previously.
After MAGLDR1.12 and WP7 are updated, I start this Android from MAGLDR, then I find that wifi does not work any more. (when I turn on wifi, the notification is "unable to scan for networks")

I would suggest you reinstall Android.
BTW What android build are you using?
I have tried several builds.
including
MDJ FroYo HD v.4.6
MDJ Revolution HD v.1.2
MDJ FroYo Sense Revolution v.1.7 [kernel: MDJ S6.1]
Its because those builds are not written to boot from magldr, they are designed for haret.exe.
If you want to boot Android from SD via magldr you need to use a compatible or edited build.
Thank you for your reply.
The build I mentioned above is MDJ FroYo Sense Revolution v.1.7 [kernel: MDJ S6.1]
I have found MIUI 1.1.14 with good wifi, but it has other many bugs.
Is there method that pick up wifi module from MIUI to MDJ?

Dude, Ive already told you you have to use a magldr compatible version, none of teh MDJ builds are compatible.

I revisited the HD2 recently because of so many tasty Android Roms available for it.
Only to find that the in call volume is deafingly Loud & no fix.
So my question, apart from is there a fix, why bother putting android on a handset that is unusable do to this issue.
I for one cannot hold the phone with 12" of my ear cause its so loud even with the volume as low as it will go.
Yes there is a fix, but I can't link it cos I've never needed to investigate it,, for me two clicks worth of voldown is fine. Go read the android section, there are loads of references to "in call volume"

Which Android ROM are you using?
I never had this issue with any of the roms I used, currently using Hyperdroid CM7 and the in call volume is fine, able to turn it down and up without problems and it's not to loud if I don't turn it all the way up..

Assuming you use Clockworkmod, have you tried fixing permissions?
have you tried any roms without sense? (shouldn't matter really but testing doesn't hurt)
And have you tried reverting back to WinMo to see if it's a hardware fault?
Since you tested this many roms the problem might be in your radio (HSPL) or bootloader (Magdlr/Clk), try reinstalling them
hope this helps

Thanks for your help.
I retried & it was still very loud, if i turned volume to full & then to min during a call it did fix it, but the HD2 runs like a dog, so I'm gonna call it a day with HD2 & stick to a phone that can run it without all this messing around.
Time to retire the HD2 & stop fooling myself
hehe I hear that more from people with Sense roms.
Without sense the only real problem the hd2 has is the battery life.. personally that's not a big problem to me
