[Q] Light Sense Rom for EU HD2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Its been a long time since I have used a desire HD rom, I think the last one I used was actually markinux's super light version back in early 2010.
Obviously a lot has changed since then, and Ive been with CM7 builds for a while.
I was wondering if there are any Desire HD roms, maybe with GB (not essential) which fit into the EU version without the need for an EXT partition (My SD card is very slow )
I only need like 60mb for apps anyway, is there anything out there?
I really miss sense and the high quality camera/ camcorder!

So far all EU Rom's need ext partition.
But no problem at all for me to go with ext..
and a new fast card is not a big amount. 8GB is ok

Are there not even Android 2.2 builds still out there which only get stored on NAND? I remember my very first NAND rom was a desire HD port, I had around 60Mb free after the install too.

Desire HD roms are slow on my HD2

I have an HD2 with SPL 2.08 and radio 2.15 , WinMo rom - Dexter .sencity 21.11 .
I have tried with other combinations too. My SD card is the original class 2 2gb micro SD. When I install Desire rom it works fast and everything is fine. When I put a Desire HD rom however it is slow - i takes 1-2 secs for it to open keyboard or the menus and so on. I dont know what the problem is or how can I see exactly how slow it is. Any help would be much appreciated! It is odd that people report that the Desire HD roms are really fast when they are slow on my HD2. Probably I messed up something but I dont know what so please HELP! I have tried different roms from m-deejay and Sergio76 and so on. The Froyo stock roms also work fast and flawless. I know there is another thread but it is in another section and there are no responses because this sections has 100x more activity. THank you!
Man honestly to rule out any possibilities of the ROM being the factor you have to use a class 6 or above sd card, otherwise you have no way of really troubleshooting what your problem is. Also, Devs mention in the releases all the time the Radio and WinMo ROM they use so to insure the same performance they can only give you what they are running as well.

The class of the SD card has nothing to do with it. The majority or people that have tried a class 4 and above say it is a lot worse than the stock SD card. I have tried and it was a lot worse for me also.
The Windows ROM and radio can have a LOT to do with it though.

By the way, how long exactly did you give it? These HD Roms can literally take hours to settle in and they won't be real speedy until they are completely done syncing everything. I have noticed that sometimes you won't see the sync icon but things will still be syncing in the background, inlcuding the Android market because these new Roms backup all your apps and data with the market and HTC sense. I am using Sergio76's and it is flying so I would try again but give it a lot of time to settle. Hope it works out for you, good luck!
As Motoman said, it will take time for everything to sync, but many reboots is very important. I have been using Mdeejay's Desire HD 4.1 for three days now, and don't have any problems. I must have rebooted 8-10 times the original day and that helped extremely well with speed.

At worst a class 6 card (for example) might not provide much in the way of an improvement over a stock class 2 but there is no way it would be 'a lot worse'.
Personally, I noticed a speed increase on identical builds when I swapped from my class 2 to a class 6 but nothing too drastic.

I agree with motoman that sdcards have nothing to do with the speed they might make a very little difference which can be negligible, I am suffering from a lot of lag in desire HD builds............
@motoman234, so can you tell us how exactly we should install these desire hd roms ?,
i was having the same issue with the hd roms. i thought they were terrible. i now have MDJ FroYo HD v.4.3=-[kernel:MDJ S7.5HD] running very well. i had to change my rom to achieve this. the wmrom is useless IMO but it lets me run android hd now. i am using this rom
ChuckyDroidROM-HTCFrameworkEdition.Nov.05.7z
and this radio
Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14
i also install bsb tweaks in winmo and set to power save mode. turn off everything in winmo and auto boot to android with hard keys lit up.
it works for me
Same issue as OP here. All non-HD ROMs run really fast. But other Desire HD ROMs are plain terrible speed-wise. I have a good Class 6 card.
It's a kernel issue. There is nothing you can do.

To each is own I suppose. I can only speak for myself when I say that a class 6 card made me have SOD every time when waking the phone from sleep, not to mention overall less performance. Not sure what it is about them but it was bad in my case but I doubt every single person will experience this.

It is a bit time consuming to get them rolling smooth for the first time but these are the steps I usually use when installing them for those of you that can not get them running like they should.
1) Boot up the build (fresh start)
2) Wait a couple minutes before unlocking the screen for the first time.
3) Setup everything in the SetupWizard.
4) From the moment you hit the "Finish" button on the SetupWizard, set your phone down for about 30-45 minutes before touching anything (OFF the charger if possible since it can get really hot when it is syncing everything for the first time. Charging can just add to that heat)
5) After you notice things to get a little faster, reboot the phone and then boot back into Android.
6) Wait another 5 minutes before unlocking the phone.
7) You should be good to go, if things still seem a little laggy try to reboot one more time.
I know this seems overboard but these HD builds have a lot to them. After you get the process over with you should be happy you did it. Once again **This is just what works for me** I am using Core Droid V0.2 by the way.
@Motoman234,
Not overboard...it's good advice. Thank you for the steps! P.S. Good to see a chef from my neck of the woods! Thank you sir!!

The Speed of the SD card has nothing to do with the roms performance.
The only difference that we will feel between a 'Class 2' and a 'Class 6' is when copying files to or from the SD card.
I noticed that on my 16GB Class 2, I have a transfer rate up to 4 MB/s when copying the Android folder and this card is supposed to have a maximum of 2mb writing while on my 8GB Class 6 I can copy up to 10 Mb/s the same Android folder (twice as fast).
But when Android runs I don't feel any difference at all.
The reason why the Desire HD roms are slow on the HD2 is because these roms were optimized to work under 768 MB RAM while our HD2 has only 576 MB RAM.
We barely have 100MB of free RAM with a Desire HD rom but with a stock rom we can have 300MB and more free.

I think what makes it worse is that we dont get 576mb ram in android, as this has not been built into kernels, we are only getting about 350mb of ram. If I check my available ram it is around the 300mb mark and has never been above 350mb.
u must just reboot you device after 1-st boot

Yes,the secret of having a good performance on any device is to have 1/3 of the amount of RAM always free.
For ex if you have 3GB of ram,you can use till 2GB and you will be very good.
But if you use 2.1 GB of the 3GB then don't think twice and upgrade immediately.
We are using this equation on our servers and t works pretty well,at least for our company.
I've only tested desire_hd beta and Core Droid HD v0.2 so far. Nonetheless, both have been quick and solid here. Like mentioned by motoman234, give these builds time to sync your market apps and settle down, then reboot a couple times, and you should be good to go. If the build has heavy lag, it's most likely still trying to download your market apps and install them as well as sync your personal data. Patience is key here.
Also, this goes for every build, but make sure that your keypad lights are on when booting into android. Doing this has normally solved any high standby battery drain that I've run into to date.
As far as MircoSDHC cards go, I have tested a handful of different class and size cards with the HD2, and found that once the system is booted up, there's no difference, or the higher class cards have more SOD or freeze issues for some reason. The HD2 can only handle so much, and random read speed appears to be the most important factor. In turn, a good quality class 2 card should be all you need. That said, I've been running a Sandisk 32GB class 2 card for months now, without a single problem to date. Regardless of what card you use, I highly recommend using SD Formatter in quick format mode.
Another thought... it may help a little to use a standard wallpaper at first, instead of the live wallpaper, just until the system has settled down.
All that said, I'm a huge fan of Core Droid HD, due to the animations and polished theme work done by Sergio76. It's an excellent build, and you can easily get the camcorder working with the system files fix included in the thread.
On a kind of related note, motoman234 has an excellent EVO Sense Black & Blue Remix build available, if the Desire HD Sense builds are too heavy for your needs.
Best to all,
R

why went back to sd built from NAND?

Hi guys,
While I am respecting and thanking all devs for their hard work and time , i would like to share this thread with the guys who are not happy with nand and went back to window rom with sd card based android built. and the reasons for that
I used NANDroid for the last couple of days and felt missing something. From NAND i did not get big advantages as expected.
reasons are (please do not get offended this is my personal experiance)
1.nandroid internal memory is not enough to save lot of applications
2.Even after Data.img is created in some builts using app2sd it is too laggy, i feel the lag in SD built is better than NANDroid
3.what is the point of using android alone as i could buy a cheap wildfire for £100 brand new handset.
4.some applications can not be ussed in ANDROID like tom tom and Garmin( i dearly miss TOMTOM as you all know NO.1 SATNAV in Europe
5.whatever we do the HD2 hardware is not fully support to NANDROID like native android as this phone is designed for windows
6.some SD builts like mdeejays desire HD 4.6 and cedesmiths desire HD and darkstones superRAM are better equiped than NANDROID.
7.if I use SD build android it will be 2 in 1 and i can get both experiances.
those are the reasons i went back to SD card based built which is Mdeejay desire HD 4.6.(cheers mdeejay)

hi friend
I was using that before but when you install more than 10 apps from market or back up you data you will get warning 'low memory'.
Got to disagree with you OP. I think NAND is the best thing to happen to the HD2 since android was first ported. Im using HD2one build and it freakin awesome. The battery life is also spectacular, especially in standby. Can now run a full working day (9 hrs) and still come home with 60%+ battery life, with SD i was lucky to come home with 30%. Just my 2 pennies .
Ricey
I don't have the ability to try out the NAND ROMs (broken microUSB), but I am still thrilled that it can be done by others, if only for the renewed dev interest in the HD2, and more options for people is always better. But even if I could flash an Android ROM, I think at least for now I'd stick with WinMo and SD builds (more options is better). But surely with a little time, the NAND ROMs will surpass the SD builds in terms of stability, usability, and performance overall. Once we can flash Clockwork Recovery, and use ext2 a2sd, NAND will beat SD hands down. But even with that, having WM plus several Android builds and Ubuntu on the SD is a very attractive option. For me, multi-functionality will be preferred to stability and battery life. But to each his own, more options is better. I just hope the SD builds don't fall by the wayside, they still have alot of use left in them, and for those like me, theyre the only option.
~HD2 Android~
I will most likely go back to my tried & true SD builds because you can't update these ROMs with new kernels or framework of desired launchers. And regardless of what anyone says about changing kernels, I can't do it because I have no clue what ADB is and nobody explains it.
My SD versions work just as good as these ROMs and boot up in 1/3rd the time. I kid you not, it takes on average about 4 to 5 minutes to boot the Gauner or cmylxgo ROMs. And there is no stock m-deejay DesireHD ROM.
I can see the problems of the original poster as I'm in the same situation. The gauner build is nice and all, uses little battery and is snappy enough, it is lacking some important features (like led notifications). The speed difference is not as massive between nand and a fast sd build. Gauners build is just a bit snappier than mdjs Froyo HD 4.6, but the difference is hardly worth getting rid of the advantages of an sd build in conjunction w/ Winmo.
If m-deejay did a nice NAND build of his 4.6 I'd flash it right away, but it's nowhere in sight. First reason would be a fast and snappy, stable ROM.
Soon I'll go to a roaming country that I've got Tom Tom maps for, and I don't have igo. So I'll likely flash Winmo back and get back to MDJs HD 4.6 sd build.

A week ago I thought the same, using an EU HD2, you get half the internal memory of the US phones, tried a couple of recovery roms now using Jaws MUIU recovery and all I can say is WOW...a little confusing at first setting up your sd card partitioning and the setting up the recovery bit, but once done everything runs fast, slick and reliably.
I really did want to stay with windows mobile as I thought I didn't need android, but now I have android running so well I don't miss windows anymore, best of luck with your hd2 the best device

I'm back to SD purely because of the dual operating system, I find that making a call in poor signal areas wm is much better prob because it was designed for the phone.

This NandRom absolutely ROCKS!!!! Do yourself a favour and try it!!
Concerning TomTom: I do agree.. TomTom is by far the coolest Navprogramme, but Navigon for Android is actually quite good too..
Wtf lol....
NAND with data.img is much faster as a sd build,logical also:
You can see it as a pc with 2 harddrives in it,1 for the os,1 for writing data on it,so disc 1 keeps his speed (nand is this case)
I have zero lag using this method with the nand build that i use,and i am getting easy 2100 quadrant score on 998mhz ghehe.
No way that sd android is faster

[Q] NAND vs SD Builds

I have leo1024 and currently running running on a SD build. I was thinking about switching to NAND, but had few questions prior to switching.
Is the NAND build worth switching to? Is it faster? Does it consume less battery? What are the disadvantages to switching to the NAND build?
Also what is the best clean froyo NAND build?
+ 1
It could be a good move to compare two same builds (Nand and SD)
like :
Desire hd rom
NAND v :******************************************* SD v :
power consumption:..xxx*******************************power consumption:..xxx.
...
...
...
*** mean "space"
and stick this if ready.
It could stop many questions about what is better.
Thanks.
I can only tell you my experience. One of my biggest frustrations was that if I locked my phone by pressing the red end button, and tried to turn the screen back on right away, I had to wait 20-30 seconds. That no longer happens. For battery, the lowest I ever saw was a 4ma standby, but usually closer to 6-8ma. I routinely see 2ma in standby, but probably averages 4ma...this is probably 25-50% better battery. It just seems more smooth also. Plus, with RMNET being as fast as PPP, there are no longer any data drops.
Again, this is my experience. Try it...if you don't like it, you can always go back to WM and SD card builds.

I have been on nand and all kind of recovery and app2sd and ++ methods. trust me SD based built is best one. you have more choice(window and android) and that is the speciality of HD'2'(2- means 2 operating system)
battery wise nobody can't boast about nand because any latest phones bettery(including desire HD itselt) is very bad . Also android drinks battery if you are not maintained your running applications properly.
furthermore no complication and less harmful to device.so better to stick with SD. Trust me.. in couple of weeks time all guys will turn back to HD '2' do you know what i mean...??
No way I will ever go back to windows + sd...
Nand is better in more then one way, smooth all around (as mentioned never unlock delay), better battery usage, faster downloads and installs (and no freezes when doing a market install)
If you are wondering why you still have windows on your mobile because you only see your android booting up, go got nand

Well, thats one opinion, ok.
Personally, I didn't try all kinds of recovery, didn't try app2sd, didn't try any ++ method stuff extra extra extra!!1!. Just didn't.
I just tried a few ROMs on NAND, and generally the user experience is so good I don't want to bother using SD or RAM builds.
The biggest plus of NAND is that it makes use of the device's hardware in the way it was supposed to be, without having the deal with Windows Mobile juckyness.
The battery life is dramatically different, because constant reading and writing from SD uses battery charge that isn't even monitored by currentwidgets. If you say 'any new phone has crap battery life' you probably only tested a rom with the 60mA after call bug. These eat battery charge just as fast as RAM builds do.
imagine what happens if you compare such a system to one that averages 4 mA
My father also has an HD2 and he is running a rom that still has the notification led bug thing going on. Still he gets 3 days battery life out of it!!!
NAND For The Win
NAND is the way to go.
I experienced lots of standby battery fluctuations on SD. After trying almost every SD build that made "battery saving" claims I honestly still couldn't reliably use any of them for day to day use. So I just stuck with Window Mobile.
After flashing to NAND I usually see 1-4mA standby. Even in poor signal spots!
Well seeing that you have that damned 1024 leo, you have the ideal device for android on NAND. Advantages for you:
You have a lot of free storage, prolly 500+ since you got TMOUS
Power consumption is low
Performance in sense builds, for me, has been better, especially with Desire HD builds.
Fast boot time
Disadvantages:
Not as much free storage as to what you can get from SD builds
MAGDLR and installing a NAND build, might pose some problems for you, if you don't read the forum...
If you like winmo then installing android onto NAND may be considered a disadvantage for you.
So I went ahead and tried out the NAND method and I kinda like it but I am confused about few things.
I have read throughout the NAND forum and people keep talking about AP2SD+ thingy. I am still kinda unsure about what it is, but I am guessing its to automatically install all apps onto the SD card instead of the device itself. Am I correct about this?
Also, is there a good clean froyo build? When I was using the SD card method, I used MDJ's Froyo HD 4.6, which didn't have a custom skin. I currently see that the only good NAND build by MDJ is the Froyo Revolution v.2.3. Is there a way to remove the custom theme and revert back to the default?
Also, I see here on the MAGLDR boot menu that there is an option of "Boot AD SD". I went to Services > BootSettings >> AD SD Dir and changed the folder to "Android" which is the location of build on my SD card. I manged to get it to boot, but it just get suck on the boot screen and doesn't load up into the system.
hey why not any one with two hd2 mobiles(one with NAND and the other with SD) make a video comparision so that people could really see the speed and effiency of both roms?.i think this solves the problem!..
i like nand better then sd
Apps2sd that is used in the nand roms stores the bulk of an application on an ext partition on your SD card. This in effect gives you a ton of space for apps.
Nand builds for me work great. Battery life is better than even winmo was, and there aren't any glaring issues remaining. Its becoming very fine tuned in the nand forum. I can't speak for SD builds because I abandoned them a long time ago. You can always flash winmo back if you dont like it.
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App
as far as windows mobile is concerned its good with battery backup but if i choose between nand and sd i would have gone for nand as its really smooth and without any cons in some built and its going great with provide me better application and a lot to choose without any lags.so a liitle compromise in battery is ok for me though new nand built dont have the battery problem either.Except in few people complainig about battery issue that must be because of wrong installation or their luck
I kind of SD ....
I changed to SD from winmo recently.its smooth and no response problem yet.SD has the advantage that ,I can just go back to winmo on a reboot in case some thing goes wrong with green.I recommend SD at least for beginners.Once you are Ok with it > move to Nand if you want so ....

Use CWM, the advantage with CWM is that you can backup your NAND build, try other builds, even revert back to winmo if you want, then come back and restore you backed up android and its all back to how you had it, awesome
I have a LEO512 so I stick to Cyanogenmod and MIUI roms, I would like a really nice updated desire rom, but everyone seems to have moved on to desire HD and left the desire rom by cotulla behind, which is a shame because I have issues with some APN's with that build. I've never ran out of space and I don't use app2sd, but maybe I just don't use as many apps as some people.
I used to get sleep of death issues with all SD builds, now I dont get it with NAND, thats probably the best reason to move to NAND, instant wake up.
NAND offer way more functionality, a few appd I've played with wont install on SD android, angry birds is a perfect example, running NAND thus far has no limitations, MIUI has some very stable roms with alot of additional functionality that stock android doesnt
I tried both tytung's Gingerbread SD and NAND.
SD: ~3-5mA, fast, occassional data drop due to CLK-PPP issue
NAND/Magldr: ~1-3mA, fast and stable, no data drop. Everything works great.

You've made a mistake somewhere as it isn't possible to have an SD build via cLK. And 1-3 mA?! Wow I get a consistent 4 mA with Typhoon

Wich android SD is the best for my mobile?

Hello,
I've tried several Android versions for my HD2.
But can anybody tell me wich andriod version is the best on the SD-card!
I want one that have the less mistakes and stable is!
I've already tried froyo V4.6 but that version works not good with some apps.
If you've tried several, and you do not like any of them, then simply android may not be for you. Also, even if you like android, we are not your subconscience, or conscience, or the preference part of your brain, or you in any case, so we can't tell you what you will like.
Anyways moving on from my lecture, try's dandiest's desire z build. Faster than hd, and lighter.
i'm using MDJ FroYo HD 4.6 now and i like it
edit: sorry, i didn't see the last sentence.
could you post the link for downloading MDJ FroYo HD ?
SD Card
Hi, I am using this rom for quite some time now, the only problem is it heats up pretty quickly... Is it normal... temp around 41c... Btw which SD card is best for HD2? And which class?

What would you guys recommend?

I just got an HTC HD2 off of eBay. It came with a SanDisk 16 GB Class 4-ish MicroSD that I took out (since I figured it's too slow). I put in my trustly ol' 8 GB Class 10 with "MccMBoxmaX GS V7.0 SD" Android 2.3.3 on it.
Booted it up, everything except 720p Video Recording seems to be working, but I noticed some graphical glitching when there's some animation in the UI going on (I see no such glitching when flicking through the apps, web browser, and etc). Angry Birds (yes, I tested it), and GameBoid run very smoothly and no glitching whatsoever. Pictures taken with this build are acceptable quality.
Also, some things are little sluggish (like bringing down the notification bar) in this build.
Oh and, any resolution video recording with this ROM seems to be a no-go: it stutters like crazy. I'm thinking it's because it's trying to record on the SD while running the OS and the App off of the SD.
What do you guys recommend I do? Get another SD build, or get a NAND build? What ROM do you guys recommend?

krendelrus [25.June.2011][MAGLDR/cLK] LeoRCMix S v.1.9 [Sense 2.1 + Sense 3.0][RAF 1.9OC] is a nice build
now if you want just a GingerBread build there are 2 that are really good

because its gingerbrad and sense 3, video isnt working perfectly and the glicthes are common on the roms
it is nothing to do with your sd card
I see.
I like the convenience of syncing with Gmail Contacts. I unlocked the phone btw since I'm an AT&T user.
I came from an LG Incite with custom ROM. Boy what a difference Capacitive touch makes.
I've installed Typhoon Cyanogenmod 7. It feels a lot faster than the SD build I was using before, and did not have any of the graphical glitches while having a newer build of Gingerbread (2.3.4).
It did not have the option to not pull data from my Wireless Account during setup so it did use up $0.15 on my account. Had to disable Data in settings afterwards.
Found a bug in CyanogenMod 7 (latest build): disappearing dock after doing certain action:
how to reproduce bug: take finger, swipe across the screen from bottom to top, starting from the dock
Re-produced on a friend's Droid 2 with APEX too.
#EDIT:
Nevermind, not a bug. Seems to be a feature in ADW.

haha...... great rom you have tested for your first android build, that and the one in my signature are the only 2 i will flash between atm, there are alot of good roms out there i just prefer them 2..
Use the rom in my sig. However, update will be in a few weeks...
Its nand build froyo with 2.1sense. Older than than sense3 but no glitches. Uses data2Ext so you have about 700+mb system space. I feel that its the best functional rom.
99% stock. A better looking %battery indicator.
Including some cool comfortaa fonts.

Wallpaper is my own edited sense 3 version. Not included in rom

That rom is not Sense 2.1. Sense 2.1 is the first build that came with the quick power settings on notification and the new paginated app drawer and is only found on Gingerbread, not Froyo.
Still mixed up a bit, as a first time HD2 user (coming a long way from as ex-samsung galaxy S user) which ROM should I use ?
looking for stable ROM, prefer GB is possible.

Do a cmylxgo Stock DesireHD ROM v1.1.18. It's pretty much a perfect DHD ROM for the HD2.
