[Omnia II Android Development] Sim Kai Long:
Hey l3ong91, have you tried to change the keymap of this version of Android?

It's still pretty annoying that the lock button is the back button and vice versa. Any idea how to change it?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Nope, I'm quite happy with it.

But if you insists to change the keymapping, there's a tutorial over MoDaCo forum, probably post by some user few weeks/months ago, here is the link.
[Omnia II Android Development] Sim Kai Long:
I've seen that. I'll probably give it a try soon.
[Omnia II Android Development] lalinde89:
l3ong91 how could i save more battery??im using right now setcpu, apn on/off and watchdog,any other recomendation??another app that would help...!also no screen brightness
[Omnia II Android Development] Sim Kai Long:
Hey guys, I've tested the steps to remap my keys and it isn't working. I can't UNLOCK my phone after I lock it. It just stays blacked out.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
It depends on how you use the phone. For me, with minimal usage can lasts for 1 whole day, but with higher usage probably lasts about 15-18 hours.

Below is just some suggestion for you:

1. Turn off data connection when not in use, i.e 3G, WiFi

2. Always shut down programs running in background

3. Try Task killer, check Autokill after screen turn off.

4. Try Auto Killer Memory Free Manager/ MinFreeManager to auto kill processese and apps in background

5. Turn off instant notification on toolbar for apps.

6. Some users also reported that turning into Airplane mode and set CPU performance to Auto in Winmo will help in extending battery life.
[Omnia II Android Development] lalinde89:
thx a lot!!great help!!now im downloading the apps to improve my battery!im using android as my default OS cause its awesome!its working really well!hey l3ong91 im a little confuse with the task killers, in some places it says that they are helpfull but in other it says that they cosume more power because some of the apps that you close the OS open it again and that drains your battery,also it says that android really dont need a task killer because it do it by himself when he really need it..!what can you tell me?some say theres a way of using task killers so they dont affect the battery...what does you know??

thx!
[Omnia II Android Development] Hlavson:
I think you dont understand my question, maybe i badly explained it. So here's a screenshot.

http://i51.tinypic.com/6fmadg.png

My Storage

GREEN COLOR - FAT32 format

YELLOW COLOR - EXT2 format

My Device

RED COLOR - Other format (BUT WHICH ?)

Before i install Android in My Storage, My Storage has same file system as My Device (RED COLOR), but my question is, when i will delete Android and two partitions i created and create a new only ONE partition (as it was before) which format shall i use for My Storage (don't know - because of Minitool say's OTHER FILE SYSTEM). So which file system shall i select ?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Auto Task Killer Min Free Manager works better in preserving battery. It ranks the background apps and services according to OOM value, which means that the system will autokill the apps from the highest OOM value apps.

This auto killing system was already used in the Android sytem itself by default, but by default this system doesn't allow you to tweak and change when to kill the apps.

By using Auto Task Killer, you will be allow to set to a memory level option, so that when your phone memory reach a certain RAM level, it will autokill some background apps and services.

Task Killer is just optional, I would say.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
First of all, there are a few questions that I need to verify with you.

1. Did you connect as "Mass Storage" and select My Storage, and not SD card?

2. What is your device? Omnia 2 2GB? Or Omnia 2 8GB? Omnia 2 16GB?

Because from what I see, you only have 2GB memory.

3. All those three partition in the screenshot was actually under one storage. So,

it's either My Storage/SD card has been separated into 3 partition.

4. Green is the memory that is available for WinMo,

Yellow is the default partition for installing official beta,

Red is the ext4 partition, reserved for Android.

5. Did you install any Android beta before on your device?
[Omnia II Android Development] lalinde89:
l3ong91 thx a lot!!now i understand better!i downloaded the apps (setcpu,autokiller and task killer) and they are working excellent!!!
[Omnia II Android Development] Hlavson:
1. Yes

2. Omnia 2 2GB

3. Yes one storage, 512MB for WinMo, 1024 format as 'sdcard' and 412MB for 'system'

4. Yes i know.

5. Yes, first installed on REAL sdcard, than installer to My Storage (without making partitions and now last, bundle with making partitions.

Hi!

im new on this forum (im noob and u hate me^^ i know)

i just installed android on my omnia 2 gt-i8000 using FROYO BETA 1 OFFICIAL INSTALLATION

i read many of posts (not all i wont lie that i spend here 3 days reading 63 sites)

i resolved calling problem with keepscreen aplication, i have working wi-fi and my main problems are:

-importing contacts from SIM (i have copied contacts from windows)

-logging to google account

i have tryied:

-youtube version, but still account dont share with gmail or markt

-Toggle DNS check to allowed and i didnt see any results

-3G CONNECTION and still nothing

-"force stop" with "clear data"

can u please help me solve this problems if this is possible?

thanks
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
I'm glad you read all the post and appreciate your effort looking through all the posts. Have you try Froyo Bundle by Ritcheitos on another thread? Try that one, that version fixes market problems and sign in problem.
[Omnia II Android Development] ROiD_II_oJIPo:
Im using the method: ISO MY STORAGE INSTALLATION (No Ubuntu) By Quato7906, MoDaCo

I have installed and eveything is working fine, except for the market

underneath, it has the link to another file, which supposodly fixes this market problem, however my phone has only 2gb of internal memory, this means i cant put both iso files in, am i ment to replace the file, or have them both in the 'iso' folder???

Also when i turn my phone off and back on, when i click on the android icon, it gives me an error, and then the only way to re-start android is to start HARAT.exe ...

Thanks in advance
[Omnia II Android Development] Aioon:
ty I3ong91 i have just found this version^^
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
ISO seems to have problem for some users. It's the easiest way for installation though.

I guess you will have to put both iso files in, because currently I'm running on manual installation and couldn't help you either.

Since you have limited space for My Storage, I suggest you buy an SD card, preferably more than 2GB and follow the manual installation on SD card.

[Omnia II Android Development] thepinkowl84:
hi i have a doubt regarding this post

2D/3D Libraries Updates + Market Fix + SD Card Fix By mihai_mihai

**FOR OFFICIAL BETA**

Download here

Placed at root of My Storage

**FOR ISO**

You guys can apply this update manually

Extract out all the files from o2b3update.tar.gz and transfer them to Storage Card.

Replaced the original files in Android using Root Explorer

i am having the iso..i downloaded the o2b3update.tar.gz extracted another tar file (o2b3update.tar)from it..then extracted the new tar file and found an init file and a system folder..the system folder has 3 folders within it..( app , etc , lib)..i copied the init file and system folder to my storage card (sd card)..my heret iso in the storage memory (8gb internal storage not the card..the card is only 2 gb..)

my doubt is the last sentence.. "" Replaced the original files in Android using Root Explorer""..i dont understand this..should i use explorer in win mo to copy paste the system and init files to system storage or any other place..please help me with this..

everything is working fine in my omnia2..except android market..
[Omnia II Android Development] PeterinBKK:
I had the same problems with everything working except for the Market. There are many different versions of o2b3update.tar.gz... The last i tested was larger (4.4 mb) and solved my market problems. You get it from here

[Omnia II Android Development] arczangel:
the really problem with this ROM is When the time you shutdown your device, and get back ti winmo, when you run Haret again to boot up android, it will mess up! sometimes wifi is not working, says it error and greyed, there is no network access as it is defaulted back to airplane mode and you just cant disable it, it is so annoying to install again from the beginning! after all those apps you installed and personalization you made on your android, suddenly you just cant boot it up again! this is just really a beta and not recommended for everyday use. thanks to devs, all guys, right now, just stick to my winmo until the final and stable release of omniadroid.. so long guys! happy tweaking!
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
1. Currently it will only work through shutting down WinMo, and ran through haret.exe, no other methods unless dev team release NAND rom.

2. Wifi error is quite rare to me, did you use Froyo bundle by Ritchietos?

3. There's a way to backup all your apps.

By the way, for your information, my last fresh installation was probably one and a half months ago. Although I wouldn't say there's no SOD throughout these period, but at least it is workable and still enough to cope with my daily usage.

I'm running on Ubuntu manual installation, not the default installation.
[Omnia II Android Development] arczangel:
nope, i use the official beta from your post, and update the market fix (the third method when you can't register on the market) and after all those apps i installed it just stuck , i have to remove the battery and run haret again but stuck on linux always.

did this all issues are solved by richietos? cos i dont want it to install on "my storage" location

sorry im not really familiar with ubunto.

by the way? i suspect it causes by my sd card which is low speed one, i will try it again after i bought a micro sd class 6 or higher

thanks

by the way, a would like to ask if i can install richietos on sd card?

and what is the recommended sd card?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Ritchietos version was for My Storage. If you want to install his version on Storage Card, you need to install Ubuntu OS first.

Some users reported that Sd card does influence the performance. However, I think it doesn't have much difference as I am running on My Storage as well, SD card was purely for transferring and reading files.

If you want to install on SD card, then probably you will have to buy a better SD card first.

If you're running on My storage, don't bother about that, a normal sd card will do.
[Omnia II Android Development] thepinkowl84:
hi peterinbkk

thanks for the quick reply..i downloaded the file thanks for ur simple trick to seperate www and the rest of the address..i dint need to wait till sometime later...

but i am still confused..where should i extract the files from that tar.gz file..

i am confused about that..should i extract the contents or just copy paste the compressed folder just like that..

and where should i copy the files..to my storage or sd card..
[Omnia II Android Development] arczangel:
Thanks Sir, really appreciate your enthusiasm on this, really thanks!

I really dont know on that ubuntu thing, sorry.

What i did, i decided to go on richietos way, i managed to install android on "my storage" using windows, minitool. now its doing fine.

What i am afraid now, it its get hang and forces me to pull out the battery and run again the haret and find android will not boot up! Hope and pray it will not!

Right now i managed to install all apps via appbrain by syncing, in case it will mess up it will be easy to install again.

What do you suggest right now? it will be ok to shutdown my device and boot up in winmo and android? or i will just keep this android always on and never to shutoff? thanks man! any suggestion to keep this omniadroid always running stably?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Glad you managed to installed it using Ritchietos version. Just a few suggestion for you:

1. Try not to boot between winmo and android, only boot if you are really need to. The more you reboot between two of them, more bugs and errors will appear. (Not only my opinion, but some Modaco users also experienced this)

2. Some apps can helps to prevent SOD and device hang i.e SetCPU, task killer.I have posted some suggestion beforehand on how to saves battery life and prevent SOD, try to find and locate it yourself (probably between page 50-60) because I'm quite buzy right now.
[Omnia II Android Development] lalinde89:
can we upgrade the ADW laucher with ADW laucher EX??
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Not sure it will work, but you can try and replace the files in Ubuntu (Get access to ext4 partition and transfer the apk into /system/apps).
[Omnia II Android Development] tomikula:
Hi :)

I have small problem with my Android :) Yesterday I was installed it with tutorial by Quato7906, MoDaCo. Now my phone can't update contacts from SIM card, it is warm the rear and is very slow :/ Please help me because I love my Omnia2 and new Android :P
[Omnia II Android Development] ziadia:
HELP PLEASE.........

I just installed android with ubuntu method on my storage. Android runs fine but I din't find my storage on android file explorer. Where is my storage? Please help me.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
You have to use some third party apps to import contacts from SIM card, search for it yourself because my contacts were sync to my Gmail account manually. ISO version is undeniably slower than all other version.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
On File Manager,

Click on "Home" icon > /storage
[Omnia II Android Development] arczangel:
Thanks man! i used set cpu and found that the minimum set on the cpu is only 66khz which is very low, now i'm trying to change it on 133khz, this to avoid SOD, so far 24hours without SOD.

By the way, im having problem now with the camera app, its loss its focus! its out of sync! from winmo and your version, there is no problem, but with Richietos it messes up. Whats the problem with it? try to install camera360 but its FC on initializing.!

any help, suggestion will be greatly appreciated! thanks!
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
For SetCPU, it's best to set to:

When running, lowest:266mHz, and highest: 800mHz.

When device turn to sleep, create another profile: lowest:133mHz, highest: 266mHz

* As reported working for most users

Camera focus have a bug I think, you will have to constantly switch between Macro/Auto/Infinity before you want to focus. Let's say by default when you run the camera app, it was set to Macro, change it to Auto/Infinity and you should be able to focus. (Workaround for me)
[Omnia II Android Development] Watercycle:
any fortunate sprites of hope shining towards the i920's direction?

though honestly now i'm not so needy of it thanks to a few tune ups to my omnia :D

-touchwiz on i920 = useless ram consumer

-spb mobile shell = awesome

-a decent task-killer

if they just put a little more ram in it in the first place, my phone wouldn't crash, so frequently :rolleyes:

what interesting work you do, you my hero! :p
[Omnia II Android Development] tomikula:
hmmm some third party apps... I see that you don't know what apps is good for this :( maybe someone know?

I install normal version Android but it does't work, it stopped. Everything is all right but when I start haret.exe from root of My Storage, installation is stop.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, Android is run, but when the screen turn on, I see "Tap the screen to start" and I do it but system doesn't work :( I can run only Emergency call and change language :/ Please help me :D
[Omnia II Android Development] arczangel:
A lot of thanks man ! Now I will try.

How much free ram does this have after booting android? cause i'm getting like 100

Just want to make sure..
[Omnia II Android Development] mightymouse2045:
Can we install this on the microSD card and not the internal storage?

Just like a lot of us I have installed a ****e load of apps etc into 'My Storage' and have a 16GB sd card I want to put this on instead....
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Are you sure you're getting 100? What apps have you installed?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Official beta files = SD installation

Froyo bundles by Ritchietos = My Storage

ISO files = My Storage

Manual installation= Choose SD or My Storage

But install on My Storage was the best solution to get stable and smooth Android experience as compared to SD card.
[Omnia II Android Development] mightymouse2045:
Thanks for the quick reply :)

Ok another one for you - which is the best and most up-to-date method for installing to My Storage? :)
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
I would say manual installation. More steps but promise working Android. Can refer to my thread on this if you want to. Manual installation for beginner.

Up-to-date? Froyo bundle by Ritchietos, not up-to-date actually, but it was a repack version that works well.
[Omnia II Android Development] mightymouse2045:
ok thanks :) and in the Manual installation for beginner you have links for all the up-to-date stuff as well? :P
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Yup, just follow step by step and you should be fine.
[Omnia II Android Development] mightymouse2045:
ok all done - there were a couple of things i did differently to get it working - but now i am in Android:

1. It's slow? Is that to be expected?

2. Windows doesn't detect it as a USB device. At first it showed as i8000 but incorrect drivers then rebooting and going back in to Android it says USB device malfunction - is that normal? or do i need kies?

3. WiFi not auto searching to find available - I had to manually add a connection - is that normal?

4. Is there any tips and tricks site for Android on Omnia 2 I can run through now i have it up and running?

5. Is your method already rooted or do i need to root the device manually?
[Omnia II Android Development] zbzzn:
I had the exact same problem. Waiting didn't help. I ended up installing the Richietos version on MyStorage and it works great now (except for the known bugs of course).
[Omnia II Android Development] mightymouse2045:
6. Cannot import contacts from SIM card. In windows mobile i copied all the contacts to SIM and in Froyo i try and import but says there are no contacts?!?

Update: Need to install 3rd party app to import contacts from SIM card

[Omnia II Android Development] tomikula:
Yeah my Android it's life :D If you have the same problem you must wait veeeery long :P your screen will be black but later it turn on and you must enter PIN code :) oh you must remember that you must always disable every error, don't enter the key WAIT :)

Just work great!

After re-installing 3 times, Froyo on my device just works great. I think installation through ubuntu is quite good. It takes about 10 minutes more to complete. I'm so exciting to wait for the next Android version to test. Thanks developers!
[Omnia II Android Development] Ewaret:
Thanks bro...

[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Try reinstall using froyo bundle posted on another thread by Ritchietos, that fixes market download problem.
[Omnia II Android Development] thanh_nha0706:
First, try unmounting your Storage Card before downloading anything from Market. If it's still not working, pls looking at the 1st page: Troubleshooting --> Market problem. There are 4 methods for you to solve.
