I know this is the Touch HD section! I just reported about problems of the sound in the XDAndroid GBX0B and GBX0C had me try on my TP2 and Touch Diamond belong to me

I have one question for you, what FM radio application that can run on XDAndroid GBX0B and GBX0C ?? because I have tried HtcFMRadio-signed but not working...;)
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Please don't post in the TouchHD section about a TP2... Oy ve.

As for FM Radio, no clue. My RHOD doesn't have an FM radio, so even if it does work I can't test it.

I don't think it works at all tho.

Keyboard problem discussed at post #132

Hi all and especially arrrghhh,

The last build i tested always made my HD reboot form 5 Minutes to some hours, and because i needed the phone for, guess .... i quit testing.

But this build i'll test again, because i love your work.

But, i have the scrambled keyboard (about 3 mm in height) and don't know what to do to get a keyboard, to log in market and get another one, lol.

So if anyone has an idea, how to solve this, please help me.

And again arrrghhh, many thanks for your build
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
D'oh, I thought this was in the caveat list, I'll add it!)

Basically this same system image runs on many devices, and it seems we can't get the keyboard to work on all of 'em at once.

So the solution is to install another keyboard, I've heard there's one called "hackers keyboard" that lets you resize, change things, etc.

Others recommended "better keyboard". Some like Swype...

Just get an APK and sideload it via the AndroidApps folder, adb install, etc.
[Touch HD Android Development] mnamnam:
Hehe, thx, edited my post before i saw your reply. I used the so called japanese IME (like old fashioned mobile keyboard), that does.:o
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oh, so if you simply change the IME it works? Thanks!!
[Touch HD Android Development] achkap:
About the reboots anything..? Because it s happening in mine too

Sent from my GT-I5800
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Need logs... and probably a developer with a Blackstone.

The former is semi-trivial. The latter... is quite a bit more difficult.
[Touch HD Android Development] mfsr98:
Lol, I though u know that, so didn't say anything xD
[Touch HD Android Development] Tichy:
:confused:

I've done as instructions but still i'm getting the 'Waiting for SD Card' message scrolling up. every now and then i get an error message about the rpcrouter and a lot of lines when i plug in a data cable in the USB port.

Any assistance would be great.

Thanks,

Tichy
[Touch HD Android Development] mnamnam:
Yep. So far Japanese IME is the only keyboard working. Go Keyboard doesn`t show up at all and standard one is about 2-3 mm in height (so somehow difficult to type :) )

@ achkap

I had only one reboot, was right now, before it ran o.k. until battery was empty.

Sometimes i got the: "sorry process didn't answer" failure, but when i click wait for, most processes then came up again working.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Try a different card. Some cards, for whatever reason, flat-out do not work.
[Touch HD Android Development] mnamnam:
Hehe, weired you talk about SD Card. Today i thought i could buy a new card for my baby, and took a Sandisk ultra mobile 32GB for 27€.

:eek:WTF: What a difference!!! The other read in a stick case at usb port around 10 MB/sec, this should do 30. But what an overall performace boost it gives to the OS and handling, wow.

And what getting a bit more mystic, the battery drain seems to chase for zero energy, na o.k. zero :)

con: when i make a video, sound seems completely destroyed and distorted.

Still very stable and can play a round lot more in comparison to same build on older 1GB sandisk.

How incredibly this build would perform on ROM.

could i do something to help looking into the keyboard problem?
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
I think a simple build.prop change would fix it, but that would break every other device in our livery...
[Touch HD Android Development] mfsr98:
the phone handled that sdcard? nice :D

pls give me all the details about the sd:

sandisk ultra mobile;

32 gb (is this really needed xD);

If you please tell me the bugs you got with the new sd card, since I didn't understand so well your post (my bad...)

Thanks for the precious information!

p.s.- also the class?
[Touch HD Android Development] mnamnam:
Hi mfsr98,

There are 2 types on the market here in germany: Because i didn't see there's a class 10 available, i bought the class6 card

SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSDHC 32GB Kit, Class 10 (SDSDQU-032G-U46A)

SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSDHC 32GB, Class 6 (SDSDQY-032G-U46A)

Copying data when i use it in an USB Adapter, transfering a big file i get read about 20MB/s read around 10 MB/s. SD-tools on the phone tell me it's only half of the datarate. But my feeling overall is way faster than with the old 1GB sandisk or the delivered 8GB, also sandisk.

Is it needed? Yes, definetly. I will use that card for years, files getting bigger every year :). Don't forget navigation files, navfree germany is about 1,3GB. And i use it as my external HDD ;)

I have NO problem at all with this card, only fun. Nay further question about just ask.

Problem was the keyboard, but i could use the build in japanese IME, and now have found a working KB: A.I.type Tastatur, so need for action for arrrghhh.

Had around 12 hours of battery in standby yesterday until shut off warning (15%) of charge, and tested tonight with CPU-Master on, witch really clocks down the CPU on demand (auto) now i have 62% !!! charge left in standby after 10 hours, wow.

AND

Important for comparison, I run the Phone on 692MHz !!! But when screen is off or no CPU Power needed, CPU-Master clocks it down to 192MHz.

cons:

Didn't find a videoplayer working, able to play any file, but the built in to play the recorded video's, but i'll look deeper in this.

Bluetooth - can activate it in settings, but when i try to change settings into visible, i get no page shown, black screen and then the :sorry, doesn't react, close or wait message. Didn't bluetooth work in earlier versions?

cya

manmnam
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
I've heard this from a few people... I guess perhaps the Blackstone needs a different OMX etc lib...?

Ugh. That would be really annoying if so. Videos play fine on my RHOD...

Work is such a strong word. It should at least turn on, again it does on my RHOD. Some devices people can pair with and work great, others are flaky, some don't work at all. Seems our BT chips are really finnicky, I've heard of people having problems with particular headsets in WinMo...
[Touch HD Android Development] mfsr98:
ALL the problems you got are normal (at least on my blackstone)

Thanks for the info about the SD's ;)

p.s.- how the hell did you get 692 mhz working on this PHONE!!! :eek:
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Why is 692mhz so crazy?

I think I've seen some Blackstones break 700, but it seems rare...

My RHOD has been OC'd to 787 before, but most can't go over 748. Again, different phone... similar proc.
[Touch HD Android Development] Hakim Rahman:
what it really ?? Mate

can you give screenshot here (I mean RHOD) ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
What's the point exactly...?

Some RHOD's have gone over 800, but what does it matter really... It's just a number :p.
[Touch HD Android Development] mfsr98:
nice, but how do I overclock? using the command?
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Please read the FAQ....
[Touch HD Android Development] mfsr98:
my thoughts exactly...
[Touch HD Android Development] krzych:
I have quite big battery issue. On WM battery discharges normally (as for the old battery), but under GBX it discharges in "turbo mode" - few minutes of work causes total discharge by the GBX judgement. Funny thing is that if I reboot to WM, battery _stays_at_the_same_level_ONCE_, because if I reboot then WM to WM, battery level immediately goes UP to the correct value (normal discharge amount for the usage time).

The battery voltage is completely strange, it shows 4221, then 4222, then 4223 and then 4222, next 4223, then 4222, next 4221 and so on. Simply stupid values, impossible.

I observed this issue earlier when I tried to use XDAndroid, but I was shouted at that this is test release and told to get back later. So here I am :).

To be honest, I even compared it to the (not liked here) Neopeek's GB - it "discharges" battery even faster (in about a minute), so I suppose it is general battery driver problem.

Anyone had same issue on HTC Touch HD? I'm trying again to set up android on this phone, but without battery it is completely impossible.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Android is going to consume more battery.

If you want to do more, and drain the battery quickly - run Android.

If you want to do little, and drain the battery slowly - run WinMo.

Regardless, there was a lot of work to reverse-engineer the battery driver for the TP2. The kernel cannot be used straight up on a Blackstone, but perhaps a Blackstone developer can port this work. One can hope...
[Touch HD Android Development] Tichy:
Thanks

Great, that worked, i just copied and pasted all the files from one SD to another is it works a treat.

Weird why the phone is so picky about the SD cards.

BTW the one that didn't work was one that came with a Nokia E71 (2GB)

and the one that worked came from a Nokia E5 (2GB)

Regards,

Tichy
[Touch HD Android Development] krzych:
But this is not what I meant - initially (few months ago) there was no such _big_ drain - of course, android drained battery faster than wmobile, but not SO fast. Now it drains my battery in _few_minutes_ - it is completely _impossible_ in the terms of the _real_drain_, and I already told you that _after_ this drain i rebooted phone _twice_, and the power was _back_on_, so it wasn't a real drain, it was FAKE.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Ok, I have no clue then. I've never heard of such a thing - draining a full battery in a matter of minutes... perhaps you should reset the battery calibration?

There's a tool on the Market, I believe it's called simply "Battery Calibration". Some TP2 folk said it did improve battery life, but only briefly - say a day or two.

As I stated previously, the real solution is a properly reversed battery driver - which I doubt is going to happen for this device.
[Touch HD Android Development] krzych:
Hmm, ok, maybe it's time to sell this phone cheaply.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
What does this have to do with development?

No one really cares what you do with your phone. Sell it, throw it out the window, use it as a paperweight... it's your phone.

Let's not muck up this thread with drivel. Thanks.
[Touch HD Android Development] krzych:
Sorry. [...] :eek: I thought you are having trouble with this phone development, just tried to help. It will never happen again...
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Still don't get how you talking about selling the phone cheaply helps with development.

Any developer is welcome to join... the project on the Blackstone front never really had a developer. A few came and went, but very few... none stayed long either.

So if you want to help, by all means. If you're just going to talk about selling your phone go elsewhere - these types of posts have NO business in a development forum.
[Touch HD Android Development] disaster2009:
Hi, I have buy my htc touch hd a few months :p

big screen and have gps :o

i will no sell my :angel:

arrrghhh

i know that some functions dont work in this versions, but versions up like 4.0 is impossible to see one day in blackstone ?

i see that htc touch hd2 have but i know 1ghz and more ram.

This version is cool for me that never touch in android, i have now win/android

:good:
[Touch HD Android Development] DerSandmann:
Hi all,

I've found a complete and stable solution to replace the tiny Keyboard.

It's called Keyboard from Android 2.3 and you can find it for free on the market. It has exactly the same functions that the original keyboard. You can add languages, too.

Here's a link : Keyboard from Android 2.3

Hope it helps,

Sandmann.

PS : And if you could actualise the link for the acoustic CSVs.. I'm a perpetual lazy :P
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Please read, both of these problems are solved in the second post.

It's pretty obvious you didn't read this post, because the CSV's are attached to that post as well.
[Touch HD Android Development] DerSandmann:
I read the post, first thing I made before posting here. Just saying this app was the best solution replacing the keyboard!

And I downloaded the CSVs and when I extracted it there was nothing. Problem was that my file manager wasn't showing hidden files.

So all my problems are solved. Thanks for your answer.
[Touch HD Android Development] denva:
when i run the haret nothing happens i dont know why ?

when i run the haret nothing happens i dont know why ?
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
LOL, love these posts.

Well certainly "nothing" happens. No windows pop up? No scrolling lines?

Have you ever run HaRET/Android on your Blackstone before? Is this the first time with this build, does FRX07.1 work OK?

Please, this level of detail will get you nowhere.
[Touch HD Android Development] mfsr98:
here on XDA we don't use teleport kinda stuff, so we can't know anything about your device if you don't descrieb your problem!

edit: sorry arrrghhh, didn't realize you already respond that!
[Touch HD Android Development] denva:
@ arrrghh sorry for not telling my device info

By the way i did it and it runs on my blac100 aka blackstone. but the problem is when ever i

turn off my device and on it, it goes to the normal windows and i dont understand
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Ah. Well lets stop and think for a second... You installed Android where... to your SD card, right? Where is WinMo installed... oh, not on the SD card. So why would you think WinMo would have gone anywhere? You haven't done anything to it. WinMo is still present on the device.
[Touch HD Android Development] aiqbal:
I am facing similar problem on my HTC HD. Every thing works great till I connect to a network and then phone starts rebooting. Note that if I just have just Wifi enabled i.e. without connecting to a network, I have no issues but as soon as I put in password and connection is established it reboots. This problem is not specific to one network/router. I have tried few and same things happens.

Search showed that this might be related to WLAN security. Is this correct?

Does any body have a solution, tip or a workaround they could suggest. Thank you.

@ arrrghhh

Thank you very much for this build
[Touch HD Android Development] dangerzone:
You can test this by setting your router to having an open network (no security), and see what happens. For me, the wifi connection under android on blackstone works fine when using non-secured routers.

Contrast this by changing nothing EXCEPT to using any type of secured router, and see if the disconnects or reboots occur.
[Touch HD Android Development] Pseudonico:
Htc touch HD

Same problem, my HTC Touch HD reboots when try to connect to Wifi (wpa2-psk)

bye
[Touch HD Android Development] aiqbal:
I was able to solve my reboot issue by changing windows mobile 6.5 to 6.1 on my phone.

Not sure how they are related but my phone is fairly stable now.
[Touch HD Android Development] yaghootco:
evrything is good, but Audio stutters every 10sec , you did say su kill -9 28 first post, how i do it? thanks
[Touch HD Android Development] fagyi:
Try with my kernel which you found it on blackstone android main thread
[Touch HD Android Development] yaghootco:
solved. thanks
[Touch HD Android Development] PetitPrince1893:
Guys, first of all I want to thank you for your overwhelming nice work - you make my HTC Touch Pro useable. :good:

But I've got a major issue: I'm not able to provide a mobile WLAN-hotspot by my phone - neither by the native function (after tapping onto this butten I recieve a error notification and the button wents grey and no longer usable), nor by using Wireless Tether for Root Users (it says:

Uable to start tethering. Please try again!

), or Barnacle Wifi Tethering (

Starting...
Data network is ready
.ini file prepared
WIFI: Failed to load driver: Unknown error: 0
WIFI: Could not set address of wlan0: No such device
WIFI: Could not get address of wlan0: No such device
WIFI: Could not get flags of wlan0: No such device
NAT: waiting for local interface
Stopped unexpectedly!

After trying to establish a wifi tether hotspot my wifi-connection itself fails and I'm no longer able to join a network (can't tap the W-Lan-button anymore).

I'm Using the 2.6.27.46-01365-gc8b9a4c-Kernel (GBX0C ROM, Startup: RAPH100) and modules-2.6.27.46-01365-gc8b9a4c.tar.

Parts of my daily work depends on the Wifi tethering function, and I don't want to use another Smartphone than the HTC Touch Po (1).

Can you - please - provide me a solution, which is made for noobs like me?

Regards, your petit prince
[Touch HD Android Development] gogs1976:
great job

I found this is the fastest build for my htc touch, thanks. I have one problem, htc is rebooting 2-3 minutes after start. Next time reboting before start android. Than i need to overvrite files on sd card to start android, but again after few minutes, reboot. If any has some idea please help.

Ok, when i turn on wirelles than he reboot and create some file cmdline in cache folder. Only start again if i dellete that file?
[Touch HD Android Development] Angat:
I hope someone sees this. I decided to give alittle life back to my Blackstone. So when I run HaReT, it loads up and then my phone reboots. Why?
[Touch HD Android Development] welard:
hi arrrghhh....

as all this stuff been updated within the newest knernel thats out now thanks....
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Bump.

First & third posts updated...
[Touch HD Android Development] welard:
going to test this will report.....thanks

after a little test on this:-

bt- works

loudpeaker- works

phone calls- works

wifi- works

camera- works

camcorder- freeze cannot touch button no responce when touching it!

keyboard- small unable to function with it--but easy fix by installing other keyboard or edit build.prop and add this line: qemu.sf.lcd_density=240

edit 2:

light/proximity sensor.......(not working)

recieve call sometimes reboot phone

if logs are required for the above i shall try and get some.....

will do further testing later!
[Touch HD Android Development] uberto.costanzo:
Hi Arrrgh, in my blackstone no work rootfs "unzip rootfs" and i can't install. thanks
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
You've missed some basic steps. Please review how you installed it.

rel_path= isn't set perhaps? Remember this step if you don't put it at the root of the card.
[Touch HD Android Development] uberto.costanzo:
hi arrrghhh, i have add rel_path but now i have this error:init: cannot find/system/bin/vold

/debugger

/rild

/app-process

/mediaserver and other why? thanks for reply
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sigh.

Is your card partitioned? If yes, you need no_partitions in your startup.txt as always when running looped builds.
[Touch HD Android Development] Danny04:
Hi arrrghhh,

Thanks for your great support for the Blackstone!

Herewith my comments:

- Sound is working great, now and then you still can hear stutter for music with original HTC Blackstone headphone and other headphone.

- Soud for telephone call and reception is great with and without headphone HTC Blackstone and other headphone.

- BT is working, but there is a lot of noise.

- Phone hangs when your not taking the call. So you have to reboot to get Android OS again.

Attached 7 *.CSV files? I am running Windows 6.5

Edit: Please help! I can't use Keyboard to type. What should I adjust? I didn't have any problem with **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1 - Maintenance Release**
[Touch HD Android Development] placella:
Those are mine... Bye
[Touch HD Android Development] [ACL]:
keep up the good work fellas. Need more testing done on this so we can start collecting bugs. Also special thanks to argg for replying to every effin thread around. I swear we really would have no communication without you. :D
[Touch HD Android Development] Halsahaf:
Great job!.

I used right now for a couple of hour.

I found a problem maybe can help, in any of games, 2D or 3D i have lots and lots of lag cant use it.

And one stupid question, why in all android roms only use 190mb of ram if phone have more than this ram (on Blackstone) ?

Thanks, and continue the nice job!
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
190 is what's avail to the OS. There's some reserved for video, some other reserved for SPL, and some other crap I'm probably forgetting about.
[Touch HD Android Development] Halsahaf:
hmm, i see. Thanks man
[Touch HD Android Development] Da Vikster:
Hey guys

I have a slight problem here. I tried to install, and everything loaded and installed fine, but my touch screen calibration has gone crazy, and I can't actually use the screen as a result (pressing the home button-ish area would link to where the "airplane mode" is on the screen. Clearly something has gone wrong somewhere, and I tried using the .csv files attached as well as my own but neither of them made any difference. Any idea what to do?

Also, don't suppose one of you could upload your startup.txt for me? I tried the default one, but maybe a different one might yield different results?

EDIT: Nevermind, I was just being silly. I didn't realise there was a touch calibration step so I just clicked madly at the screen... Ooops....
[Touch HD Android Development] Gauss75:
Missed incoming call causes the phone to reboot.

Does someone know how to fix it?

Thanks.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
lol, I've missed tons of calls. No reboots. LOGS PLEASE!!!

C'mon guys. Feedback is completely, utterly useless without logs (for the most part).
[Touch HD Android Development] Ogie35:
I just tried installing this today and works fine except for the keyboard, where can I find the file to edit?

Thanks
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Can't you just adjust the lcd.density in startup.txt instead of mucking in build.prop? Users really should not need to mess with build.prop, unless the build is not setup correctly for the device :rolleyes:.
[Touch HD Android Development] Motik:
I had the same problem and had to edit build.prop, although my startup.txt correctly sets lcd.density=240 (and works perfectly with FRX07.1).
[Touch HD Android Development] Ogie35:
Have the same problem. I already checked startup.txt :

set cmdline "lcd.density=240

is in there.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Did setting it to 210 fix the issue...?

Strange that only you folk have had any problems with it.
[Touch HD Android Development] Gauss75:
Could you please let me know where I can find the logs?
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
http://xdandroid.com/wiki/Logs

If you guys are going to test this stuff, knowing how to get logs is kinda essential. Thanks!!
[Touch HD Android Development] Ogie35:
Tried... Doesn't work.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well, at least you have a workaround. I'm not sure what can be done, as the build.prop is the same for all devices...

Perhaps we can do some detection and do a setprop after the fact.
[Touch HD Android Development] Ogie35:
Great.. But I still don't know where to find "build.prop"

Sorry, very green noob here.
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well honestly users shouldn't need to modify the build.prop. Kinda disturbing that's the only fix, but I guess if it works...

In a terminal (thru adb or a terminal app like ConnectBot on the Market)

setprop qemu.sf.lcd_density=240
[Touch HD Android Development] Motik:
Nope, tried it and the Android keyboard was still 3 mm high :eek:
[Touch HD Android Development] arrrghhh:
I guess you can download "hacker keyboard" from the Market, and you can resize the kb completely....
