If gparted is not working for you, then try to re-format or delete all the existing partition on your My Storage using Minitool PArtition Wizard (Do it on Windows instead of Ubuntu).

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------

Did you do the extracting in Ubuntu? And did you set the destination to the correct partition?

First boot it will took some times for the pink screen to disappear, for me it's around 1-2 minutes, before the shiny Android logo pops out.
[Omnia II Android Development] tnthh:
ok i have found a solution.

re-format sd card with g-parted under ubuntu.

-unmount device

- completly erased partitions.

- create new partition in fat32 in primary mode 7go

- create new parttion in ext4 in extended mode 1go

- extract . tar files in ext partition.

my first install was a 2go ext4 parttion , it seems to be the pb, i've read somewhere that if ext 4 partitions are more than 1.5 go = troubles.

hope i have help you....
[Omnia II Android Development] fran_nic:
Yes i did the extracting in ubuntu. I checked my previous startup to be sure i had the correct partition cause it always worked.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Then make sure you set to the correct partition in the startup.txt, coz for this 2nd version of beta is different from the froyo beta 1.

For your reference:

mmcblk(X)p(Y)

For (X): Root of partition

mmcblk0: SD Card (If you want to extract the ext4.tar.gz to SD Card)

mmcblk1: My Storage (If you want to extract the ext4.tar.gz to My Storage)

For (Y): Specific partition number

You need to find out what is the partition number of the newly created partition.

ie. if it's 2, then it will be mmcblk(X)p2

In this beta, it's normally p5,p6 or p7.

Hope this helps you understand better and good luck.
[Omnia II Android Development] vpnair:
Thanks for your advise l3ong91.

Problem was... windows would see My Storage while ubuntu would not. Minitool was able to resize my partition so i could use all of it. BUT still ubuntu would not recognise. After a lot of work, i found the problem was in my micro usb cable. It was faulty. So i replaced that and voila! ubuntu mounted My Storage. I was then able to create the partitions. Unpack the ext4, set startup.txt to My Storage (mine was mmcblk1p2 after following youtubeguide by JerryTech11).... Then had to redownload zImage (as i download my version early on and it was 2.2mb while the current link is to 2.4mb). And android is now running! Hoping battery lasts a day with moderate use. If so my omnia 2 is once again my favourite device.

:)
[Omnia II Android Development] fran_nic:
Thanks for your reply.In beta 1 mystorage was seen as mmcblk0.

That was my problem.

I changed it to 1 and it boots perfectly.

Thank you very much for helping me out here.

batteri life too short

I installed CyanogenMod beta 1 update 1 on SD card.The battery life it's too short and it is not useful (maximum 6-7 hours with medium usage). The phone become hot also after the usage(in standby).

What can i do to improve the duration?There is some fix?It is better froyo beta 3?

Thank you to everyone
[Omnia II Android Development] midimaster:
Installed the Cyanogen Mod Manually on the extern SD card, it got more room.. I''m very pleased with the Android Mod now.. it's fast.. everything seems to work ok. even the camera and whatsapp.. Gonna give it a testdrive this week..

I am facing this problem too. :(

My O2 environment is English(UK)[XEU]

What I'd is like to install to MY STORAGE from MY STORAGE using the automatic install package from the project page(o2droid.phj.hu)

But no matter the latest CyanogenMod beta 1 or the last Froyo beta3, it came up an error when firing the haret.exe

The path was default.txt but the file wasn't seen there in the file explorer.

Of cos it prompt an error message saying that "cannot open script file \Storage Card\default.txt"

p.s. I have renamed sd_ms.cpio.gz to sd.cpio.gz in the /o2beta/ folder

and the androidinstall.exe process seem fine(or perhaps it continues with error:confused:) as it reboots the device after loading bunches of codes

Added: Would missing the following file be the reason?

Files:

beta1024.zip ........ 1G partition image ( new version : 2011-01-18 12:35 CET )

as far as i know it contains default.txt
[Omnia II Android Development] Aafi-rocks:
Why don't you try to do a manual installation in My Storage using Ubuntu. The auto installer may or may not work for 'My Storage' Installation.

and please avoid using RED color fonts.

i amconfused can i install this on a sk4g froyo or somethings esle?
[Omnia II Android Development] midimaster:
After working with the Cyanogen Mod for a long period with pleasure, i'm facing my first problem:

Wifi cannot scan any networks..

When I'm in WM6.5 I can connect without a glitch, but suddenly when starting my Android, it cannot scan any more. I don't see any accesspoints and I get the error message at the bottom of the screen "cannot scan networks)

I've tried rebooting the phone, but it's not working anymore.

The only obvious thing to do is to install it again.. with which I will lose everything installed...:S

Or is there someone who can give me a tip on how I get this working again!

Grtz.

MM
[Omnia II Android Development] midimaster:
Ok, because I din't get any reply, I investigate the problem again. Tried everything like rebooting, recovering etc. Nothing of it all did the job. After that I've looked at the last installations of apps, and I found the problem!

A couple of days earlier I've installed the spotify app that seemes to work pretty good.

After removing the app yesterday (it took me 3 hours to try to connect on a wifi network) everything works again.. No problems with wifi connects since yesterday morning (it's now tuesday 2012-1-10, 8:54 overhere)..

So hope this helps for anyone who gets the same problem, or maybe someone knows where the problem with spotify lies.

Regards,

MM
[Omnia II Android Development] aistee:
Hi. I've had the same problem, but i didnt install any application.

Instead of fixing this, i just connect with network without scanning (manualy instaling the network with putting 3 values to dialog).

Although it's a pitty if you want to connect to some public networks without knowing them.

I think problem is somewhere else than some app.

Edit - I saw that when i connect rigidly to my wireless network suddenly all networks in range are visible ...

All in all last release of omnia2droid is very nice and i enjoy it very much.

See if you have turned on wifi, gps or gprs/edge. Without them i've lost only 4% during the night. With wifi, phone was dead at the morning.
[Omnia II Android Development] midimaster:
Can you explain how you did this. I use the phone on wifi at my place home and at work, sometimes when I'm with family or friends. So I got to have the ability to choose the network..

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

Hmm. today I realize that no-one can actually call me, they get a busy tone.

I checked it with wm6.5 and within this mode, i can be called.

Very curious why this all happened so suddenly, because it worked before..

Now again the phone can't scan networks anymore. So I guess I do need to reinstall it again.. This really is annoying.
[Omnia II Android Development] Aafi-rocks:
Even I was facing similar issues with incoming calls, but thats OK, remember we are using Beta version and it will be annoying on different stages as you use it.. ;)
[Omnia II Android Development] midimaster:
I know :D, but it seems that the problem occurs randomly and I can't pinpoint the problem. Now I'm at work and I've got Wifi, yesterday evening at home he didn't scan. And the day before that it was the other way around.

I really enjoy this release.. and I do have respect for the devs..
[Omnia II Android Development] Axel85:
Hi,I have a question to ask you.I tried to install this rom in a friend omnia 2...The rom is awesome,it s many times better than windows mobile even in this beta stage.I had a fresh install and everything is perfect,then I installed the update 1 (kernel + headset detection fix)...Since the first boot i noticed the phone can t get the signal after i put the sim code.So I tried to remove pin code and sim lock from windows mobile,but I had no result

Some guy (andylau) @ Modaco post this:

Hi guys,

i instally beta2 after almost a whole day,now i success and for those who want to install it on my storage,i give a way here,it is ext4 without journal

1.firstly ,make two logical partitions in my storage(the first one is fat32 and the latter is ext4 or any kind you like)

2. download this file (Put a H before it!) ttp://115.com/file/dnhddmg3# and extract it in your my storage

3.put ext4.tar.gz of beta2 in the root of my storage

4.go to my storage/o2beta,click haret to install beta2,it last about 5 mins and will reboot your phone

5.delete the files in my storage and put the file below extracted to my storage

6.go to my storage and run haret,then you will able to enjoy beta2 with installing in my storage

please do as just what i said,the camera workd well,the file manager can see your my storage,but the time seems to be 1 hour later,and more things to be tested

This is a install for Windows.

It worked for me.

THNX TO ANDYLAU!
[Omnia II Android Development] jagiho:

How to install Froyo beta 2

To be able to see Internal Storage:

1: You need to open ext4.tar.gz ( I did under ubuntu)

2: Open "init.rc" where you can see

"mount vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p5 /storage"

3: Now you change to:

"mount vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /storage"

4: Don't forget to save and wait until repacks the archive

I have done this under Ubuntu 11.04 Natty instaled alongside with Windows vista on my laptop

and on my SDCARD.

1.--I removed microsdcard from phone and pluged in microsd addapter and then in laptop

2.--Under ubuntu I deleted, with Gparted, al previous partitions of sdcard

with froyo beta 1 (make sure to do a backup copy of froyo beta 1 of all you

personal files)

3.--Then create 2 primary partitions in ubuntu with gparted

---one fat32 "sdcard"

---second ext4 "system"

-ext4.tar.gz has to be on Desktop

-mount "sdcard" and "system"

4.--Type in TERMINAL "cd Desktop"

It will appears as (username) - desktop: ~/Desktop

5.--Then,type in ''sudo tar zxvf ext4.tar.gz -C /media/system''

Insert your password, then click Enter.

6.--Now place on your "sdcard": ext4.tar.gz ; zimage ; startup ;Haret or you can unpack "froyo_beta2_manual_inst.zip" to your "sdcard"

7.-- Now unmount (safe remove)

8.-- Put the card back in the phone and click on Haret from "STORAGE "

You will see a pink screen for les than 3 min and than will change to android logo, which will take a couple of minutes.

Make sure to check "startup" file because on "froyo_beta2_manual_inst.zip" from http://o2droid.phj.hu/index_en.php I noticed is missing this part:

pfw 0x7f005800 4 0x3

pfw 0x7f005804 4 0x805

pfw 0x7f005808 4 0x7

pfw 0x7f00580c 4 0x0

pfw 0x7f005828 4 0x11

pfw 0x7f00582c 4 0x80

boot

It works like a charm except the wifi bug.
[Omnia II Android Development] larrezz:
Nope, you have to format it in ext4. Just use a program as Minitool Partition Wizard Home. You have to delete the ext2 drive, and create a new partition: Logical and Ext 4.

I placed the right files in the right directory, but when I try to run Harret (after the android installer), it says: Cannot open script file mystorage/default.txt what am I doing wrong?

any solutions on this or anyone else having this problem?

Edit: Could this be a matter of the system language? Because my system/Os language is Dutch, and someone else was having the same problem,

while he had the system/os-language set on Czech. And my storage is ''mijn opslag'' in Dutch... is that why the script file can't be opened?
[Omnia II Android Development] evilmonkey477:

This beta is running better than the previous. Better battery handleing. For the wifi I could not get it to work until I set a static IP.

after running android installer, iirc there will be a startup.txt in your "mijn opslag". if not, then the android installer didn't run correctly, mabye becouse of your language, try running the sd-rename program, should be on here somewhere :P

my problem on the other hand is this: android runs awesomely, used the sd card installer, works fine but. after i booted android, it doesn't ask my to enter my pincode to activate the sim card. anyone knows what to do about this? i just followed the exact instructions from the readme that came with it.

And I have another question: What if your My Storage is not ''untouched''? and how could you find out if it is/isn't?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
You can use the automatic installer if you are sure that your storage is "untouched".

"Untouched" here means that you have not done any modification to the file and partition format. Also means that it's in the default size and format.
[Omnia II Android Development] 0mnia2:
how do you find out if its untouched? Because I have partitioned my My storage once for Beta 1, so does that means its no longer untouched?

And if its no longer untouched, the automatic installer is impossible to use on your device, and no way to get it installed automatically?

[Omnia II Android Development] evilmonkey477:
Great so far.

I have been runing droid on my omnia 2 now for more than 3 days with out any problems, only bug is the black screen after a call it tends to be a bit of a lag to get out of sleep but other than that its smooth. The wifi was easily resolved with setting up a static ip, even though the icon wont show its connected to wifi on the top status bar it will be. Easiest way to toggle/know you are connected is by using the Power Control widget on the home screen.

For those of you wanting to know how to set up static ip its easy.

If on a PC open up command prompt and type ipconfig/all then take note of your dns, and netmask numbers.

If on Mac or Linux ifconfig -a and take note of the settings like above.

On your droid go to wireless & networks > wi-fi settings > click on your ssid(the name of your network) and take note of the assigned ip address. Click cancel then hit the menu button go to advanced tick static ip and enter in all the fields that you took note of, note depending on your isp and/or router you may only have one dns so in that case you can leave the dns2 field blank.

I also set my wifi sleep policy to never.

Hope this helps and from this point on I wont be going back to winmo ever lol.

Can you please tell us about battery life? is it better than the previous beta?
[Omnia II Android Development] evilmonkey477:
Battery is way better than previous betas. The last beta battery would barely last me a day, I would loose 10% battery an hr. With the new beta depending on my usage at the end of the day im left with battery life between 40%-60%.

One thing though the battery can be charged 100% but the phone will only show 94%. So the actual life readings are a bit off.

[Omnia II Android Development] Sim Kai Long:
Delete BatteryStats.bin from the system folder to recalibrate your battery.

[It'd force it to generate a new .bin file which contains the correct settings for your battery]

I've used the bundle as well. Use the same files in the bundle. But replace the androidinstall.tar.gz with the new ext4.tar.gz. Also, replace zImage with the new one [for the root directory]. zImage of the npkinstall folder to be kept the same. Adding on, if you've problem getting the partition right, make sure you format it as PRIMARY and also ext2 format.
[Omnia II Android Development] evilmonkey477:
Just tried that, and still nothing, it's at 99% on winmo side but android says 89%.

If SD card install. Use minitool partition wizard to format whole card as as Primary FAT32 partition. Then place automatic installer in My Storage, and open androidinstall.exe first time around to get formatting and partitions, and then open haret.exe after the reboot.

Manual install for me was hit and miss. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. Autoinstall works every time.
