[Q] How to fix poor (unusual) performance in a port ?

Hi,
Im porting a MIUI FRG83 rom to HD2.
I followed those steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8867035&postcount=546
I used files from HD2froyov3 and hastarin r8.
Its working but I have performance issue: in home/menu it stutters a bit when scrolling. So I downloaded fps2d, and saw the poor performance: avg fps: 10.
I tried with another miui build for hd2, made with the same miui base and kernel, and there is no stutter and with fps2d the avg fps is ~50.
(also tried logcat on the build saw no error)
I wonder if anyone can help me figure out what is making the performance being poor ?
I would really appreciate any help, thanks a lot.

Hi,
Im trying to update a Miui from a version < 2.2.1 to 2.2.1.
Th build is based on Miui for nexus one, I got the zip to update to 2.2.1 FRG83 but I dont know how to upgrade the version.
I tried to copy all files over but it replaces miui with stock froyo (and its slow).
Im porting this to HD2, so im wondering how to update an sdcard build for HD2.
If anyone can help ? thx.

You cannot update one build, MIUI, by copying over another set of files and expect it to work ... Its not how its done ... If MIUI do not use 2.2.1 as a base then you are stuck with whatever they provide.

thx for the answer.
I edited the subject for a new problem. Thx to anyone who help.

Installing New Rom...

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to submit a post about changing my rom but it keeps saying I can't add outside links although the post does not have any links?
Any ideas?!
Post:
Hi Everyone,
OK first of all I am new to all of this but I have a Desire HD...
Basically the phone is very laggy and a friend has told me to look at installing a new rom as that is the way forward...
So here I am, I have had a good luck around the forum but there seems to be so many different guides...
I am probably going to look at installing:
[ROM] Android Revolution HD 4.0, 3.1 Gingerbread & HTC Sense 2.1 Android 2.3.2 - posted my mike1986...now my first question, is this stable and are there any problems with it?
My desire is:
Android Version: 2.2
Baseband Version: 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M
Kernal Version: 2.6.32.21-gf3f553d
[email protected] #1
Thu Oct 28 13:24:11 CST 2010
Build Number: 1.39.161.1 CL278886 release-keys
Software Number: 1.39.161.1
Browser Version: WebKit 3.1
Now is there any major impact at changing the rom?!
Also is there anyway in which I can backup my text messages (most important) and also the installed apps and restore these once the process has been completed.
Thanks in advance!
Johnathon

Anyone please?!

There are a lot of guides in the Desire HD Android Development forum if you have a look in there.

Not all ROMS require wiping, in which case your data will be kept.
I have installed LeeDrOid and all texts, games savedata etc never were deleted.
When you install a rom, make a backup of everything with titanium backup (if you need to restore, probably best to restore data and not apps).
However, the first thing you do when you flash a new rom is make a nandroid backup with clockworkmod of your phone. This will enable you to restore the pre-flash state.
Check the sticky post by the mod of the forum in the dev section, this will give you everything you need.
Read carefully though, when you start flashing stuff, you may brick your phone if you do it incorrectly.

This should help you.
step 1. Download titanium backup. Back up all apps and data if you wish ( this way you will keep save games and other data )
step 2. Sync your contacts and emails to your gmail account so you can restore them easily once the new rom is flashed.
step 3. You are ready to flash your new rom.
step 4. Once new rom is installed, use your gmail account to sync your contacts etc and then use titanium backup to restore your apps.
Following this lets you wipe everything so you dont have junk left over from your old rom.
hope this helps

Use a stable release instead of a beta release.

Your going to install a beta ...
So no this might not be stable,
and yes there might be problems with it.
I'm not saying your going to have issue's (it's already a Beta4) but it might...
(currently it ain't HD 4.0 β 3.1 but HD 4.0 β 4 ... )
Beter to use a bit more stable release:
[ROM] Android Revolution HD 3.2 | High Quality & Performance | O/C | Sense/no-Sense : link
For your text message you can use a backup app:
sms-Backup-restore
For your already installed app's you can use or a backup app or an automated installer that keeps track of your installed apps.
I use : the site: http://www.appbrain.com the app: link to app

Hi Everyone,
Thank you so much for the advice you have all given me!!
Last night I took the plunge and installed the android revolution...it is just so much better, a lot faster etc. Really pleased.
The only thing I have not done is flashed the radio to the recommended one - the signal seems to be fine etc however would you recommend that I take the plunge or flash this too?...do you flash the flash everytime you flash a new rom?!
In the next few weeks I will now be keen on trying new roms, some which change the actual look of the phone - feeling a little more daring now!
Will I be able to go down a version for example I am now running on 2.3.2, would it be possible to do a wipe and go down to 2.3.1 or even up to 2.3.3?!
I am guessing to do this I just copy over the rom to my sd card. do a nandroid backup, format the rom, install the new rom, reboot and I am good to go?!
Wow I think I am starting to understand all of this now!
Now a really complex question, is it possible to have two rom's installed so for example I could have a stable on that I can use all of the time but then also a beta version so that I could beta test as and when I wanted to but obviously revert back to the stable version if it was too buggy.
A lot in one post I know! Sorry!
Thanks
Johnathon

Read the Guides at Dev thread mate. It should be easy for you.

If you have a stable version you use Rom manager to take a backup before you install a new. If your done playing / testing you restore the backup...
If you use certain backup tools for your sms, apps... you dont have to backup your Rom every time. Just use those tools to restore sms, apps, ...
Enjoy testing your new rom's

Thanks for that! Guess it was kind of an obvious answer really to just take a full backup of the ROM that I am happy with and then restore that if I want to roll back
Only one outstanding thing now is that am I ok to go up and down versions of the os as long as I do a full format first then an install from zip or restore?
Ignore the bit about ping chat and e-mail, they both seem to have been working without any issues today, very strange!

that's true, thx for sharing

[Q] another 3g problem :(

i am using this rom cLK_MAGLDR_Android_2.3.5_Sense_3.5_Firmware_v2.2 on my hd2 european model on magldr install, and it won`t let me use the mobile data, wi-fi works fine, i have tried both rcmix3d v6 kernel and marc`s kernel and still doesen`t work, with other kernel`s it gives me a white screen when i use the camera, anyone knows what is the problem? i have tried other runnymede roms and the same problem with the same kernel`s

A Bit Puzzled

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"

Wow, that'd blow my ears out.
Can someone provode a link to the fix?

Bumping up this thread as not many people seem to want to post in it.
Thoughts please?

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

[Q] XBmod-Yuki ROM v2.0

Hello,
since Ultrafruit was released by Cotulla there was a wave of new roms based on it. Some devs claimed that they've fixed the reboot problem by replacing the touch driver.. but..
I've tried them all and for, me each of them have the same problem - after some time of using (without any problem) rom freezes and phone reboots, then? All content is gone or nothing works at all.. (only way to fix is reflash)
While I'm writing this post my phone is being flashed because I had this problem with the last rom I found and hoped it would be ok..
My question is, does anyone have the old XBmod's ROM 2.0? Without the new touch driver? It's the only rom which worked perfectly for me..

hmm nopes...i had it before but not anymore...

Yes.. my problem too, I've got 2.1 on HDD but I want 2.0 :/

Hi,
I've got original v2.0 on my harddisk. I updated to 2.1 on my phone using the cab provided by Xboxmod.
It is over 170 MB... Where do you want me to upload it?
