It seems you are surprised.. It is stated a 1000x on this forum that battery charging is not working and highly not recommended. Battery driver needs further improvements.

Haret Freeze

Dear Members,

I have HTC HD MINI ( INDIA ). I have been trying to port Android on my phone through this forum, but every time I do so, my phone just freezes at Haret ( Booting Linux ).

I have a 2GB Class 2 & a 8 GB Class 2 Memory Card.

I have tried everything, Formatting using specified tool, reformatting to FAT 32 & whatever this is mentioned, still no luck.

Can anybody help.

Regards

Rajat Sharma

Hello developpers,

Hi all,

I formated sd card then I copied files from ,,cm6-29.05.2011,, to root of sd card, after I copied files from ,,update,, or ,,30.05.2011_r106,, to root of sd card. I run haret and there is booting Linux screen on display.. I waited and still nothing happens...

I absolutly no idea...

very thx for response
[HD Mini Android Development] bruce2728:
lol, this is why im asking for a q&a sub-forum
[HD Mini Android Development] bruce2728:
How long did you wait? Can take a long time on first boot.

And did you remove your sim before first boot?

ps you might want to try the release in 1st post, cm6 has more bugs i think

Edit: use just 30.5.11 not both, they different ports and wont work together
[HD Mini Android Development] folrodman:
I waited very long.. after I restarted..

ok actually i triy ,,30.05.2011_r106,, (in 1st post)... No I didn't remove my sim.. I must remove my sim?

thx
[HD Mini Android Development] bruce2728:
Yes remove sim, delete all files and only install 30.5.11 and it should boot ok
[HD Mini Android Development] superzuan:
as you notice it's different for everyone. I did not remove my sim card . I had problems with sandisk sd card and a data. but with kingston I had no problem. My first boot took just very briefly and even briefly steet. about 1 or 2 minutes.
[HD Mini Android Development] folrodman:
I did it but i have absolutly same event.

I waited ,,boot linux,, for example about 20 minutes and nothing...
[HD Mini Android Development] superzuan:
the best way for me.

Hard Reset

-then format your sd card.

-then the files from 05/30/2011

- Haret click and then he did it,

all versions workt from version 1 to that of 30-05
[HD Mini Android Development] superzuan:
20 minutes very longgggggggg.

not longer as 5 min i think , when mines was in 1 or 2 minutes
[HD Mini Android Development] folrodman:
I did it but nothing...

I have the same problem again again again

no idea
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
I am NOT surprised it doesn't work lol

Explanation:

you took different versions from different developers!

cm6-29.05.2011 is made by cardsharing (R.I.P)

and 30.05.2011_r106

on cm6 works few things and on 30.05.2011 works more

follow my tutorial if u wanna succeed like all others.
[HD Mini Android Development] folrodman:
yeah I followed you tutorial but still nothing happens.. I have absolutly same problem...

I wrote my problem a few lines above...

thx for help
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
did u try with another sd card?
[HD Mini Android Development] folrodman:
not yet... I haven't got another sd card... hmmm
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
well that's the last chance(and it should work)

the only different thing which is different between our phones is cards..different brand,fake or not fake,different speed class,etc.

get 1( at least 2 GB) and let me know how will be things;)
[HD Mini Android Development] folrodman:
I will have to try it... thx for my sh_t
[HD Mini Android Development] munjeni:

[HD Mini Android Development] sikoro:
Could anyone tell how to switch off the illumination of the buttons under the screen?

Thank you very much
[HD Mini Android Development] 15MA1L:
Simple: in a dark room (no joke you can better concentrate)

Before you boot Android while you're on Windows Mobile

1. The screen should be black.

2. Press the power button once and watch how after a few moments but gradually switched off the light! First Button backlight goes off and the screen after that.

3. Do this several times - exercise

4. At the moment when Button backlight goes out, simply run the Haret

5. On Android Button backlight is switched off
[HD Mini Android Development] ripstar:
Information for the developers

I have maybe something for the developers!

I have a Task Manager downloaded. Since I noticed that many programs work in the background. If I then close it, open up again in a few seconds.:eek:

I hope that was a help:)
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
use Autostarts and you will choose what programs will start when u will run Android.

all of task managers and task killers i've tried didnt work...programs were still there lol
[HD Mini Android Development] codiak:
This is because most programms are running as a service too.

Once you (or a task manager) kills the app, the service restarts it.

Services cannot be killed.

This is normal for Android.
[HD Mini Android Development] GallardoLP_560:
Or simply put you HTC under a lamp or in a very light room, and they should go off automaticly. Then press HARET. :rolleyes:

hello every body...

I have a little question:

I know that there are problems with using usb cable and synchronising with pc.

If I have internet on my PC, I cant get wireless connection between the pc and the phone for some reason, Can i get internet in my mini from the PC using usb cable?
[HD Mini Android Development] codiak:
No, there is no method for that.

What you are searching is "reverse usb tethering".

Did some investigation on that a few day back but with no luck.
[HD Mini Android Development] Ahmad.elhajjar:
Thank you very much for quick reply, Hope to have a solution soon...

Thoroughly searched in discussion and haven't found it in PhotonStatus - the clock problem... It's behavior is rather erratic and one of the main reasons of reduced usability. Dear devs, is this problem on your to-do list?

How to turn off button light ?
[HD Mini Android Development] pietje63:

Sir

i download android from above link which u gave me but i cannot find any file there named ''for_sd_card '' and HARET_PHOTON7227.exe is not running in my htc hd mini always its giving error like this is not valid aplication

pls help me

thanks

[HD Mini Android Development] bruce2728:
for_sd_card is not a file, just copy all files to your 'storage card' and haret will be there
[HD Mini Android Development] pietje63:
I get this error also from time to time with WM (with different programs). It often helps to turn off (and again on :)) you mobile.
[HD Mini Android Development] GallardoLP_560:
Ok I got to ask. What do you mean clock problem? Mine is not changing. Clock works fine.

Except if you havent disabled the automatic clock sync (or something like that) from windows.

You can have your clock in the right time with no problem, but if you change location your clock wont give you your new positions time (like another country).

I need a really really pure guide

I download the Photon.rar (260mb) file. I tried it, after booting linux,i wait for more than 15 minute, it seems to hang....... My SD card is FAT32.............. can anyone help me..........
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
Sorry for my poor english...

First, i'm not lucky with my micro SD Card, my 2 cards class 4 (different brand) doesn't work but my "simple" 2GB seems work....

SANDISK 8GB Class 4 (FAT32): KO

PNY 4GB Class 4 (FAT32): KO

No name 2GB (sold with my Blackberry) (FAT32) : OK

For all cards, the famous tool is used ;)

I didn't skip anything, all steps have been respected.

Finally, i managed to make it work... But Android is very very very slow, lag... perhaps it's due to my micro SD card speed or my HD MINI has a problem... :/

Thanks for your hard work.
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
click me->:mad:
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
format can help when android is slow,if it doesn't then get a new card(make sure is not fake)

or

if you formatted did you do it both ways with the tool and with windows?
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
Yes, formatting by SDFormatter and windows...

What is the value you choose in "Allocation Unit Size" (windows formatter) ?

I've got at work another new hd mini (still in box), i'll try it.
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
4096 bytes

hmmm is not phone fault,our phones are all the same,only our cards are different,so the right way is to try other card not other phone:)
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
OK, thanks a lot ! ;)

Unfortunately, i tried with 4096 without success.... i'll go to buy a kinsgton Micro SD tomorrow... hope it'll work..
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
hello everyone,iv followed all the tutorial,iv got a sandisk 2GB i used full erase with the sd formatter then formatted to FAT32 then put the latest 2.2 android onto it,just freezes,iv waited over half an hour,must be my SD card :( i`ll keep trying tho,do i just copy all the files over onto the sd? or do i copy all the files in UPDATE folder as well separately? id like to commend you all on doing such a fantastic job and its very close to a full working android :D

do you think copy and pasting instead of extracting to SD straight from the rar file make any difference?
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
Hi

Yes,it's your SD card..

yes copy all the files to the root of the card

no,is no difference if you whether extract the rar on the computer or on the phone:)..but i only extract on computer:)
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
thanks very much for your reply tzacapaca

im gutted cause i really thought my sandisk 2gb would work,what card would you recommend and roughly how much are they,im in the UK ,i`ll pop up my nearest cash generator and see if they got any tomorrow,wanted to sort this today but being sunday shops are closed,bloody typical lol thanks again dude
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
welcome:)

well...I would recommend Sandisk lol,but right now i use a Kingston one and i have one more nokia and both works..

well sometimes people needs to rest too,even in Bible they say the 7th day God had some rest too :p so..

as about price..check www.amazon.co.uk
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
I need a clarification :

When we launch Android, it kill all WM process ? (Like HTC HD2 Leo, my previous HTC...)

Thanks ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
yes of course :)
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
Ok thanks tzacapaca...:) hope that my new card will work great tomorrow... this will the third card that i purchase... :/
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
hi sparrow where do you change to 4096? i done erase all on the sd formatter and it went really quick about 5 seconds,when i do full overwrite is took at least a minute? lol

also when i do the installion all im left after is a data file of 29.9 MB thats obviously where it hangs :(
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
In windows formatter tool (built with windows !)... you have a listbox called "Allocation unit size" ;) (right click on drive letter -> format)
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
cant change it sparrow,just says "default allocation size" in the listbox,cant alter it
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
Perhaps it's depending of your OS... mine is seven x64.

Here is a screenshot of my formatting options.
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
thanks sparrow,im still running xp (if it aint broke dont try to fix it) lol

i noticed you changed the volume name to ANDROID

im gonna get a sandisk 4gb and hopefully that will work :)
[HD Mini Android Development] codiak:
The Volumename is totaly unimportant.
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
yeah i know dude but thanks

is a 4gb sd card fine to use? my 2gb sandisk hangs up when attempting to boot and only get data file of 29.9mb
[HD Mini Android Development] superzuan:
no sandisk. it won't work. Buy a kingston 2 or 4 gb. I have 2 gb and works fine.
[HD Mini Android Development] bruce2728:
I got an 8gb class 10 kingston quite cheap, about £12, and it has speeded up Android a lot compared to my old class 2 one
[HD Mini Android Development] BATFINK74:
thanks a lot guys much appreciated
[HD Mini Android Development] u17r480y:
thank you tzacapaca(for 703rd post).my friends and ive that problem yet.

is kingstone 2gb good for that?

im waitin' for your reply ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] tzacapaca:
well kingston works although sandisk are known to be more reliable in meaning of performance,but 2 GB is kinda small since only Android files takes around 1GB,so if i were you i will get at least 8GB and preferably 16GB :),just dont get any class higher than 4 because the higher class the card is the more battery will use..
[HD Mini Android Development] Sparrow:
Ok, i tried with another HD mini, still have SD "issue"... you were right tzacapaca ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] u17r480y:
