I've heard of people doing up to 1gb, I've heard of problems over that tho.

ispartacus75, I would try it again, perhaps make it slightly smaller...? Not sure. Did you use it to create the data.img, or did you expand an existing data.img..?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
I read that the de-mark is 2Gb. I have tried a number of data.img files at 2Gb (just under) and had no probs with them. I use toporesize to make or resize mine. Always make a copy first. I tend to make two copies. I create a folder on the phone within Android on the SDCard and call it old files or something and then copy the data.img in to it. I then copy the data.img to my PC desktop, and then and only then resize the img on the phone. I am currently running at 1.5Gb.

If having problems, try copying everything to the desk top and then re formatting the SDCARD before doing the above.

hope this helps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ispartacus75:
Thanks for the advice.

I was extending the img file using toporesize. However I didnt think to make a backup, and I was resizing it while it was on the card in a reader rather than copying the file to the pc which is really the way I should have done it thinking about it.

Will give it another go I think.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
Arrrghhh

Many thanks for the updates and feedback.

re radio/GSM issue. It is not often, and there is absolutely no question it is a zillion times better than F6 and below. It has happened 2 or 3 times in the last couple of months. I thought it was useful to share the observation, and I have as yet to do my full European roam again, that is not due until Easter when I can give a better feedback.

The Market issue. It's in a right old mess so I was wondering: A thought and theory, that you or anyone else may be able to confirm.

I was wondering if may be the phone is confused.

How does Market Place identify the phone and associated apps? Is it by eMail account, phone number,phone's unique number or what?

Also: I originally installed my new apps on the phone (data.img), but later when I started to run out of space moved them to the SDCard (before I had toporesize). I was wondering if all these Marketpace issues may have been caused by doing this exercise.....

Likewise my fix could be to delete all apps, bar Titanium Backup from the SDCARD and then let MarketPlace reinstall - after making a note of all the apps.

You can use it with every rootfs, doesn't break anything.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
Thanks. But how do I acces the prompt to enter something like this

cp -a /sdcard/*.kcm.bin /sdcard/*.kl /init.etc/keymaps/default

?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] helicopter88:
You should install a terminal emulator,search it on market
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
That was to easy. Thx

/edit: I know, that Linux is the better OS, but I am used to Windows and sometimes I just can't understand, why something so simple isn't working.

I can't create a folder "default" in keymaps, because it's read only.

I try to change it using chmod, but chmod says, it can't be changed, because it's read only!

What am I doing wrong?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rpierce99:
mount -o remount,rw / (remounts the root FS as RW)

mount -o remount,ro / (remounts the root FS as RO)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This ^^.

Mount it read/write, make your changes, then remount it read-only again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
I did it. chmod put nearly one full screen as notification back. Couldn't say, if it was successful. It must have been a failure, because mkdir still says read-only file system.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
Hmm why so complicated? Just do put the files on the root of the sdcard and do step this:

1) Add these lines to froyo.user.conf

cp -a /sdcard/*.kcm.bin /sdcard/*.kl /init.etc/keymaps/default

2) Then go to startup.txt, and delete physkeyboard=de

That's everything ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] trilbert:
Why does my camera not work? I even install the latest Kernel...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
Because I wanted to keep the default and add this layout as de_new.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Do you have a RHOD100?

If so, see this post. The code still hasn't hit the main kernel repo...

The cam never worked on those, until brinka123's patches. He bravely fixed it, but hasn't been able to get it isolated and patched so it can go mainline. In time...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] trilbert:
I do have the RHOD100.. I would love it if the camera will work.

Lots of Kudo's to the devs
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Use that kernel, should work fine from what I've seen ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] trilbert:
So what kernel would that be..? I can't tell which one is for RHOD100..

Something changed significantly

The incremental updates of 10/16 to 10/19 must surely have changed the way "standby" is managed. I have 50% battery left after 3 full days of limited text, phone and assorted applications. Mostly just had phone sitting on the nightstand.

Att tilt2, background data off, data connection off, wifi on and always connected.

This is at least as good battery as WinMo ever was.

Jim
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Wow, that's epic.

I knew turning off the data connection helped, but that's stellar! Looking thru the commits, I don't see anything that would provide a big boom to battery life - but who am I to argue. That's awesome!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jherbold:
Changes

Well, the ONLY other thing I changed recently was a new Sandisk 16g card. I had read the notes on the updates as well and didn't see anything....

Maybe tonight I will copy the system off the new card, onto the old card, just to eliminate that in my mind.

Wanna thank you for you incredeble work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ozqeee:
i would like to thank everybody to get this ver. of android its really fantastic i tried it but i have some problem i like to share it to improve this work

when i connect headset no icon appear to check its really connect but i make call through it well but when i listen to any media i cant hear nothing and i try program to play radio fm its make scan for station and get it but no sound get its seem connect but no output so i will be pleasure for ur help
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
If you mean BT headset, those don't quite work flawlessly yet.

If you mean the 3.5mm jack, that should work fine. So should the extUSB plug.

The GSM-only variants have FM radios (evidently) but our port doesn't enable the chipset.

Someone with a GSM variant needs to step up and get that fixed if there's enough interest. Seems with all the streaming internet radio services, what would be the point of using a FM radio on the phone :p. In other words, I've seen basically 0 interest in that feature.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
Well, I don't agree with you.

If I hab any idea of Linux, hardware or programing, I would but, but...well, I'm still trying to get the german keymap working :D

The point is: I do think, streaming costs battery, more than using radio fm.

And streaming costs data volume. Some might send or recive unlimited data.

But there are also a lot of people, who'll get a lower bandwidth after reciving 200MB for example or have to pay for every MB after reciving 1Gb per month.

But hey, don't get this as an "order" to get into this. I for myself will just keep on going to hear mp3-files.

Back to the keymap:

After downloading your FRX07.1 bundle I unzip it onto my windows desktop.

Now, normally, I would copy it onto the sdcard.

But leaving it there, is there a way to get access to the content of the files?

So I can do this changings like creating folders, copying the keymap in etc and put it after that into the sdcard?

And another thing: I did recognize that our market wouldn't update. It's still version 1.82 and there is at least 3.2 out there. Or is it only for honeycomb or ice cream sandwich?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
Got that already. Doesn't work for me yet. Perhaps I did anything wrong again using the terminal? Is the market file called vending.apk in our release?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
Ok, i thought you are searching for it. Yes it's named vending.apk.

I'll always use es datei manager (es file explorer) which has root access and an option to rw mount the system.

Enable root and rw, delete the old vending.apk and copy the new one over, don't forget to reboot.

But beware, for me the old one is working better than the new market. With the new market I can't install some apps for froyo, it thinks that eclair is installed.

Don't know why. You have to test it.

Referring to the keyboard layout:

If you try to use a terminal emulator, like connect bot, and you want to change something in the system, before you enter one of these commands (or other commands):

mount -o remount,rw / (remounts the root FS as ReadWrite)

mount -o remount,ro / (remounts the root FS as ReadOnly)

you have to enter "su" (superuser). The app superuser will ask you to give permission to the terminal emulator.

su = admin (in Windows).

Now you should be able to change your keyboard layout.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
FroYo's Market doesn't update. Blame the gapps packages provided for FroYo... As you can see after this post, there is a way to replace the Market manually.

I love how you say my streaming theory is bunk, yet still prove me correct that no one uses the FM radio. I'm sure there's a few people that are interested in it (I had a Blackstone user ask about it ~a month ago. Anyhoo, it's not that big of a feature - especially since only GSM devices support it, I doubt the devs are going to even look into it.

Back to the keymap indeed - what the heck is the issue again? There's already a physkeyboard for the German layout... "physkeyboard=rhod100_de"? Does it not include what you need? Why not add it & commit it?

:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] motisu:
Begging to differ, but I was the blackstone user and as you can see from my sig., I also have a GSM Rhodium and would also love to have the FM radio working here. I have absolutely no programming skills so I can't do it myself, but I can always hope the somebody will add this support.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yup, you're the one guy that was asking for it. Not much interest in it, as you can see :p.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
F22 had a good german keymap in his rootfs.

Starfox made a good one too for every rootfs (still not as good as F22's, see here: hit me).

ÄÜÖß are not working on the standard keymap for example.

CosmicBlue wanted to keep the original keymap and add the german one as a custom keymap.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
No good Germans want to commit the changes mainline? :p.

Seriously tho, someone needs to go thru F22's rootfs and see what's kang-worthy. I attempted it a while back, perhaps I need to revisit.

I myself need to sort out how to make commits onto the rootfs properly. I usually just slap stuff into a loop mounted rootfs lol.

But this thread and this app should help you play with it. mikereidis seems like a really nice guy, ping him in that thread if you need some of his help. Seems very willing to work with anyone who's willing - which I am willing to test, but my hardware doesn't support it :mad:.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eik:

FM radio is great :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well, 5 people is more than I would've expected...

But I'd rather have a functional prox or a better GPS driver than FM radio for a small subsection of phones...

lol. Either way, the more functional our hardware is the better. I guess I'm just bitter it won't work on my phone :p.

I guess this would be a good time to troll - if anyone has a GSM RHOD they would like to donate, ACL would definitely put it to use. I can't guarantee he'll work on the FM radio right away, but I'm sure it would help NAND move forward! /troll.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mikereidis:
Well... thanks... :)

I was looking for your links, but perhaps you were just pointing to my thread and app ?

Here's my post on the most recent query: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18861051&postcount=1523

It would be interesting if anyone could confirm the low quality BT headset mode. But for speaker or wired headset, if the hardware is there, we just need a way to enable the FM audio path.

But I don't know if that will require kernel code changes or what. And I don't have the resources to do any lengthy research on this device. If some technical whiz can figure out the "magic" code to enable FM audio, I can easily add it to my app.

Figuring out the few simple lines of magic code can easily take weeks of work, in my experience.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
lol, yes I was just pointing to your thread and app.

The "bright idea" I had was the new acoustic code that is still pretty experimental. I was also reading thru your thread with suggestions you were giving others on what to try in adb - was going to throw some GSM user an acoustic build and see what happens. That would certainly give it the best shot... it is going to be the way forward, once the remaining bugs are squashed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mikereidis:
OK. Is that what puts lines like this in logcat ? : "HTC Acoustic( 117): msm72xx_enable_audpp: 0x0007"

On some HTC devices, writing "fm_headset" etc. to /sys/class/htc_accessory/fm/flag can switch FM audio path.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yea, I think I'll have to either get my hands on a GSM RHOD, or find someone who is sharp and has one available.

Still trolling for donations too folks. ACL would be able to get GSM devices up on NAND pretty darn quickly if he had one in his hands. Just sayin.

Thanks for the tips tho mikereidis. You are a gentleman and a scholar. With your help, and functional hardware, I'm sure we'll get this working :D.

Hi everyone,

I'm new here and I'm trying to use this v6 supercharger script here, but it requires a newer version of busybox. I tried to use a busybox installer, but it seems like I can't change the version that's already on. Can anyone help?

Thanks again for all your work and allowing me to use my tp2 less reluctantly. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Script works great here. What version of busybox do you have? Have you tried installing Script Manager?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] putyournamehere:
Thanks for replying...

I've run some of the old versions of the script with my busybox version (1.15.2) but I read that some people running the new script was having issues with non-updated busybox versions.

I've also tried some of the busybox installers from the market and they will either say

that I already have a version of busybox and cannot update

says it's updated with new version, but when I run the script manager, it says I'm still using busybox 1.15.2

Sorry, I'm not real technical, so I just try to follow directions as best I can.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Wait, so you haven't tried it? You just "hear" that "some people are having issues"?

Please try it before making assumptions. Like I said, it works for me, just fine, right out of the box. I bet it will for you too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nasapunk88:
Putyournamehere prob is having the same troubles i am.The question doesn't have anything to do with the script, it's with how to update BusyBox. The new script version recommends a BusyBox version greater then 1.17 (can't remember exact versions). The one we have is 1.15.2. So when we try and update BusyBox using the installer off the market it doesn't work. Even when it says it installed the new version, Script stills says we have the old.

I can just use the v6 RC3 script with the pre-installed lower version busybox but i'd of course rather everything be updated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ethanpil:
I did a completely fresh install on brand new SD card and updated to the latest kernel, and applied supercharger... this is amazing...kudos!!

I am however having the problem with the incoming calls not ringing my phone as mentioned several times within this thread... Has there been any other fix or ideas aside from loading Haret when in WM Airplane Mode? Perhaps I missed something?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] putyournamehere:
Thanks, that's my issue/question. Not sure why busybox can't be updated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] motisu:
And here too. I agree with arrghhh that the script works with the built in version of busybox, but I also would like to upgrade to the newer version if possible. I DL'd from Market the installation utility and ran it. By default, it installed the new version into xbin directory, so I changed the default to bin(where the builtin version is). The installation completes and says that 1.19 is now installed, but even after reset, when you run the installer again, or when you run the supercharger script, it says that 1.15.2 is installed. Just a guess, but maybe we need to remount in rw mode before installation??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Wait, if it works, what does it matter!?!?

I would COMPLETELY understand wanting to update if it didn't work. I use the newest Supercharger script without issue.

I would imagine you'd have to rip the old version of busybox out and manually replace with a new version. I guess I could try this but I honestly don't see the point. If it's not broke, don't fix it!!

Also, I thought 1.19+ didn't work with the Supercharger script? I dunno. You guys are crazy :p.

Did you try putting WinMo in Airplane mode? You seem to be against that. I would highly recommend it.

But I have problems with the phone waking in time to answer the phone. It always rings for me, just sometimes doesn't want to wake up fully/properly in time for me to answer. Maddening, and I haven't found a solution myself. I think the G1 guys had similar issues, perhaps I should go troll their forums...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] motisu:
I like to anticipate potential problems before they occur, if possible. When you run the supercharger script, it gives a warning that it will only work properly from version 1.16.2 or above to 1.19.2 and redirects you to Market to upgrade the busybox. Granted that if I skip the upgrade, all works well, but I to prevent any future problems with the script functions if I can. Of course, I can just wait until it doesn't work and then upgrade, but if I can do a preventive action, isn't this better? :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Eh, I don't agree - but if you want to try, by all means. You'll probably have to manually replace busybox tho. Good luck.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vinceweis:
I also fought with this for a while but finally got busybox to update. I had to use a terminal and do a mount -o remount,rw / . This allowed it to install to /bin. I was also having a lot of messages that there was not enough space so I also increased the size of the rootfs and the system image using the data.img maker program prior to boot. I don't know if this was necessary or not at this point but I got busybox 19.2 to install to /bin with the stericson installer and no longer get the out of space errors.

it has all the stations in the world, some are in hd even:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
Yes that's a good point. I always had to use a new rootfs, cause it got messed up after manually moving busybox to /bin. Gonna try it later.
