Hello all you experts.... ;-)

I've spent days looking for a 'definitive' article on how to get Android OS onto a P3700 Touch Diamond, but of course, the more I read, the more confused I become.

Can anybody point me to a set of comprehensive instructions on how to do this?

This page seems to be the most informative, but it leaves many unanswered questions:

ghost301tech.wordpress.com/2010/01/29/how-to-run-android-in-htc-touch-diamond

Here are my questions: :confused:

1) How do I know which version of Android will work best on the P3700?

[I have tried 2.2.1 AOSP FRX03.21.11.10 Full, but when I executed the Haret.exe, it started (eventually) briefly then re-booted to Windows]

2) Is this page the best place from which to download XDAndroid? -

//files.xdandroidDOTcom

3) Is using Gen.y dual boot the best method from this Win Mobile 6.1 phone?

4) I have copied it (Gen.Y) to the phone's internal (not the 4GB storage) but it doesn't start.

5) There is mention of editing the registry on the phone to allow the boot utility to start, but I cannot see how to do this. Can anybody assist?

6) The 'Bible' page mentioned on this site no longer exists - is it located anywhere else now, or has it closed?

Thank-you for any help here.

How to get Android on Touch Diamond P3700

I guess all the experts have other interests now. Oh, well. My fault for being 2 years too late. :-(
[General Questions and Answers] iRiKi:
LOL

I'm not an expert, and yes I have many doubts just like you. Maybe we can build a FAQ and ask for donations eeheh :p

I have tried two ways: XDAndroid, and the Cherry Pie v3 (CP3). XDAndroid works in LOOP mode (the filesystem is a file called system.ext2) and CP3 runs in a native ext2 partition created in the same place as the Internl Storage.

If your XDAndroid is giving troubles, do this:

1- delete data.img and try again

2- if the above didnt work, delete all xdandroid files and install arghhh's package: http://www.multiupload.com/XD023XA5AH I get it from here --> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6967724&postcount=3

______________________________________

This is a post from an 11 yr old kid.

PHONE: SAMSUNG GALAXY S I

ROM: STOCK OPTUS ROM

FIRMWARE: 2.2 FROYO(WANTS 2.3.)

PHONE STATUS: ROOTED
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
A signed ROM carries a digital signature that proves it is original, official and unaltered. Adding or changing files breaks the signature.

One of the original purposes of apps like CWM was to install unsigned ROMs...that is customized ones.

You can also use software to "sign" a custom ROM.
[Epic 4G General] Chabsin:
Where can I find the apk for the stock 'clock's application, which includes a stopwatch and timer?

Or something similar on the market?

Thanks in advance!
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Was it the Samsung Widget for stock clock?

There is an app in the market actually called Stopwatch & Timer
[Epic 4G General] Chabsin:
Thanks! I think it's now called clock ... IIRC it has (had) alarm, stopwatch, timer, world times etc.

I'm now using acs and have no built-in alarm.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I think this is the one you want:
[Epic 4G General] VeNoM vZ:
acs has alarm, its called Desk Clock
[Epic 4G General] Chabsin:
Thanks. "Application did not install". Any idea why or what to do about it?
[Epic 4G General] s9ortner:
Place it in the system app folder with root explorer and reboot.
[Epic 4G General] Chabsin:
Used the free version of Supermanager - worked like a charm.

And it was indeed the app I was looking for.

Thanks to all!
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
You are welcome.

Do you BONSAI?
[Epic 4G General] Chabsin:
Bonsai is actually one I haven't tried yet ... will get around to it one day.

http://www.multiupload.com/956A945N79

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Kisscool841:
hey i'll be jalous ^^

I'm on CM6 and i want some hotfixes too ^^

Great job you too !

Thanks !

Owain what about wifi N on CM6.3 ?

And what about includig the patched market in next realeases ?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] owain94:
both will be included (:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ctalcant:
are these installed via recovery? or ....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] handitya91:
yes, installed via exrecovery.. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Sesme:
Testing...

in your hw_config include this lines ...

"# overclock speed

insmod /system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko"

if you incluyed this lines cpu set 691 to default... and oc with setcpu to 825mhz...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
Dont include that line in v8 its included in owain delta.rc script!

Setcpu wont work, i did this before and now dont use that line since than overclocking is working with set cpu
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
@ owain i used tun.ko with openvpn and just insmodded it when openvpn was activated, there is an openvpninstaller and openvpnsettings.apk to download as well as the free openvpn configs. If anybody wants it i can share :-D

also feel free to include everything in your new cm7 rom/hotfix :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Kisscool841:
Hey hey hey thanks!

I've just tried the OC with my CM6, it works well.

So it look like if we were having a new dev on CM ^^

What about chumby is he always here ?

May we ask to you devs on what are you working actually ? Cause there are some echoes that you are working about MT true or false ?

Thanks for those fixes Slade87, maybe i'll be back to CM7.

Oh i got an idea...

A bit crazy but what about dual boot ?

We may have choice beetween CM6 and CM7 at boot.

That would be lovely !!!!

What ya think about it ?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
another small update.

please install with xrec and go advanced/fixpermissions!!! you have to let xrec fix permissions install hotfix01 from owain or mine in above posts aswell

Changelog:

added some libraries and some minor bin files nothing fancy, just to complete the libs a bit more. seems to be more stable now on games. haven't had a crash anymore.

please install hotfix either from owain or mine in the above thread.

I haven't had any random reboots since then. hope it helps you guys as well.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lilpac1987:
Hey slade i must say I´m really happy about it that we "Germany" have a great dev like owain!! Another question is does the fix for wlan 802.1x working on the v3.6?? Because I don´t get it working (eduroam) on my Uni?? I try it without and with Telekom Root Ca and my settings peap and MSCHAPV2? My VPN works with owains rom but when I disconnect or close the app vpn connections my phone reboot with the v3.6?? Can you please give me an advice what I can do to solve this problem!! And I must say you both are the best!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
i am really not sure about 3.6 but you could however make a xrec backup and install wlanupdate.zip this should be fine.

but some sony/global certs and libs are also in hotfix01 and hotfix02 but I am unsure about these.

best thing for you would be to try the wlanupdate.zip

and maybe hotfix01/02

please report back if it works.

if it doesnt just advanced restore your system partion with xrec.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lilpac1987:
Hey slade I had tasted your Wlan-fix on CM v3.6!! I flashed it over the xrec everything works fine!! But eduroam will not work!! So I think i tasted the CM 7 hotfix + your hotfix 2 :p And wait for the new version!! AND in the future our DREAMTEAM (OWAIN and SLADE) will bring the best ROM to our x10 mini pro :D

Maybe with Multitouch :p

You need to update CyanogenMod to version 7.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polarbearmc:
hey all

another question for me today...

my g2 has been slowing down quite a bit lately. almost ready to root. but first i wanted to see if i can deal with this a bit longer.

first things first, i've read plenty of posts and articles, even a thing from cyanogen himself i believe that said that taskkillers are worthless in the android operating system. that being said, according to an app i just installed called "startupcleaner2.0" i have 42 apps loading at startup. my g2 takes almost 5 minutes to boot. some of these apps are of course required apps and system things, things that i absolutely need, but then there are things like, "CardioTrainer," an app i've never even used but would like to check out sometime, or "G4" which i see no reason why it should need to run until i run it myself, or "HootSuite" which I don't even use (I just use the separate facebook and twitter apps) but just haven't gotten around to uninstalling yet.

i have plenty of space left on my sd card, and really don't want to uninstall all these extra apps because i'd like to try them at sometime, and if i don't like them then delete them (and some apps like for example, G4, i REALLY don't want to install cause i do use them, just see no reason for them to start at startup). so, should i actually make use of this StartUpCleaner2.0 and have it stop these apps from running? or is it the same situation as the supposedly useless (and potentially bad for your phone taskkillers) where it's sort of counterproductive to the way android is meant to be managed?

thanks for your input. it just seems lame that with all this space there should be a limit to the amount of apps i can have installed for my phone to run good. but if that really is the case i'll uninstall some (i just did a sweep of like 20 apps/games i never used). if not, then i'll give this StartUpCleaner2.0 a try and stop pretty probably half of these things from starting at startup.

thanks!

Dave
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polarbearmc:
anyone? would love to find out about this.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HLeenders:
All I can say is: Read this: http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/ And for what is worth; thats the truth, the only truth and nothing but the truth there is about this subject.

P.S. You may always thank me afterwards when you have concluded that installing a app killer did not help you in any way improving your battery life.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
You might use watchdog or titanuim backup to freeze those apps so they can't run at all while still leaving them installed. That's what I'd do, or use a startup/autorun manager.

I use Autorun Manager since I use the apps, just don't want them running at boot because like you pointed out, it increases boot times.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polarbearmc:
you know i think that is one of the things i had read telling me not to use task killers which is why i stopped using them. but there's still the fact that my phone is sluggish now with lots of apps installed in a way that it wasn't when i first got it. and i refuse to believe it's sluggish just from "having them installed" even if i'm not using them ... if that's the case, then android REALLY doesn't do a great job of shutting down tasks and whatnot on its own...

also i wasn't considering using a task killer exactly, it was something to stop apps from running at startup in the first place. especially apps that i simply don't use at all but apparently are loading.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhilberg:
I use the Autostarts app for the same thing, disabling apps on startup. It can help with boot times a little, but honestly it doesn't make too much of a difference. One of the problems now is that many apps that start on boot don't show up in Autostarts and other autorun manager type apps, so you can't control their boot priority. I think this started in 2.3.

And yes, don't use a task killer with Android. I used to use one a while back, and it made absolutely no difference in battery life or performance. In fact, it made some apps a lot slower to restart. That was with my old Cliq. Ever since I've had my G2 I haven't used one.

Hello

i have a problem with the personal password in version 1.0.3 & 1.0.4 stock kernel. when i enter a PIN with 4 numbers and the screen locks after 30 seconds the phone crash and reboot. the problem is, that he loops in the MIUI boot screen.

I can only restart the xrecovery and make a "factory reset" the i can boot the phone normaly.

can anyone confirm this error? in version 1.0.2 that error dont exist...

Perhaps we can rapport this to Trip

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceanth:
Hi all,

I am currently on the lookout for a new device and I was considering the Samsung Galaxy S.

I was leaning towards a HTC Desire as they will be releasing 2.3 for that device, but have (1) Samsung announced 2.3 for the i9000?

2 Whats the 1ghz processor like compared to the Desire?

3 What is the battery life like on the Galaxy?

4 Does it cause an issue that the device doesnt have a flash?

5 Can you get a headset with music controls (i use my current phone while cycling so having music controls is very handy)

6 The device has 8gb internal memory, how much is used for storing apps? Would i need to use app2sd? I take it I can expand the memory via micro sd card?

7 Do people recommend the Samsung Galaxy S?

Thanks

-c
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbuk__:
1. Yes

2. Much better graphics performance, CPU is weaker in some areas and stronger in others on the SGS.

3. A day or so in my experience (fairly heavy use)

4. Not really for me, but I don't use phone cameras much anyway.

5. You can, but afaik they have to have the Nikia/Samsung pin arrangement rather than the Apple/HTC

6. Around 1.3GB is available for storing apps, so no real need for a2sd.

7. Yes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceanth:
Thanks for the reply. I read about a free unlocking solution on this forum, does this work for all devices or is it specific to a certain type of galaxy s?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myrddral:
it is fairly easy to unlock this device (we're talking about the original galaxy s which is the i-9000) and comes with a great deal of "aftermarket" support with lost of cooked roms to try :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michalbrz:
It really depends on the user - sometimes battery life may obtain 3 days - for me, it is 1,5-2 days. But everything is relative.

About flash - it also depends if you need it - simple :) For me it is not a big problem.

I was choosing between Desire and Galaxy S - finally, i have chosen galaxy and I am really satisfied with it :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
The lack of camera flash is a big miss on the SGS. I seriously just assumed it would have one when I got mine - so much for research! But apart from that it really is a terrific device. The official support is a bit patchy but the team on this site have put together some amazing custom roms. Battery life is bad if you come from an old school phone my old Sony erricson would last a week but you really do need to charge up every day unless you're not using it and you WILL use it a lot.

The other stuff depends on what your setup is but all is possible. My choice was between the SGS and the desire and I don't regret my decision but the desire does have a better camera, when its dark at least
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceanth:
Sounds like a great device but can someone clarify that the unlock is free?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kart_y_26:
The galaxy s is a fantastic phone with excellent hardware and great "aftermarket" development as someone put it :D but to be honest if you're thinking of getting a galaxy s now.. y not wait a while and just get the galaxy s 2... its pretty much galaxy s on steroids, in terms of hardware and software...

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sucker4pa1n:
My first thought would be if the phone is off/dead, and it wont charge when you plug it in, it isn't software so much as either charger or socket issue. Since you said you tried various chargers and it didn't work... have you tried finding a different battery, with a charge, and see if it'll turn on? If that's the case, your MicroUSB port or internal circuitry is shot. Or the leads are soiled (make sure there's nothing in there... I had problems and found a lint ball from my pocket wedged itself in there. Make sure if you're digging in there you take the battery out just in case.

I guess if you need to replace it do so soon, Asurion is raising their deductible to $90 from $80.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhetstone02:
I made that mistake :( It's scary. Especially if you do it the 1st day you get your new phone

Following doupistons site helped me get back up and running.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzman54:
If your phone vibrates when you turn it on after doing a battery pull, then it's probably an SLCD issue. If not, it's likely a battery issue.

You say you were running CM7 with no problems on the phone, the battery drained, the phone turned off, and now it wont charge or turn on?

You can take it to Verizon and have them check the battery for you as well.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradatz:
Steve's is an easy SLCD issue. Downgrade, lost screen.

The OP's... well I have no idea but since it doesn't boot up and gets no charging led then I'd say it sounds like the phone is dead. Best of luck to him and I hope he's got insurance.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C4H1LL:
i tried a new battery an still nothing, i believe i am amoled, and its like when you hold the power button and the volume up button and it vibrates, then wont turn on til you pull the battery, except its like locked in safe mode so bad that it wont even let the phone charge. so its dead, and wont come out of safe mode, and wont charge. wtf. i just got a new phone so i dont have insurance on it anymore but wanted to sell it to make some of the money i spent back...
