I deleted sdcard partition (unallocated) and another time one EX2 partition and in both cases android booted :)

It meant android is looking for file or something in SDcard and it's not SDcard itself keeping android on boot

the interesting thing was I formatted my SDcard into NTFS but it was the same as FAT32 :confused:

Don't know really where to put this question, but since this thread is about NAND and originally Alex's concept I ask here. Currently I've been using the current available builds and think they are very good. I'm just throwing out a question here :)

Would there be any benefit in reviving e.g. Alex's old Froyo SD-build (the one with the Arc-theme)?

I converted it into a NAND-build, booted it and tested it shortly with zargloubs kernel from March 1st. But since I don't have skills enough I'm just gonna link to the rom. Feel free to do whatever you like with it. It's just my comparacy to see how well Froyo runs vis-a-vis Gingerbread on our Kovskys' :)

- Screen is mirrored and up-side-down

- data doesn't seem to work

- "Shut Down" doesn't work

- Camera works (but didn't test it with SD-card....)

Edit. Forgot to mention Did NOT reboot on missed call.

Edit 2. THIS IS NOT INTENDED FOR DAYILY USE. THIS WAS JUST FOR TRYING!

Alex's Froyo Arc 2.2.2 NAND

Good Job
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neopeek:
Can someone provide me with more infos. I have been inactive last months for X1 but looks like Alex (sp3dev) has stopped providing any updates. Correct me if I am wrong. What do you guys use as the base ROM for your CM7 ROMs? Is all of those ROMs based on sp3dev's CM7?

If so I may do a fresh compile for you guys based on the latest commits and tweak it additionally for you. So someone drop me a PM on my HP with all that info plz.

Edit

: Thx to ady_95 for providing me a detailed list. I'll come up with an updated ROM once I have some time and inform y'all afterwards. No need to send me further PM's plz.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] TheNT:

Thank you now I have android on my x1. :)

Is it possible get scandinavian keyboard buttons äåö working?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] calacon:
I tried the rom and now I have this problem too... the screen flashes when I plug in the power with the phone off, and also when I press the power button to turn it on. Even flashing the stock rom doesn't change anything.

Since I used pdocread to back up the phone's original rom before I did anything, is it possible to use pdocwrite to write it back, or would that not do what I think it would? Is there a way to reverse what the LK bootloader (?) changed?

Hardly the worst problem in the world though :p
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
Do a Task29 it will format your ROM section, then install the Windows Mobile ROMs your problem will be solved
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] calacon:
Ah, I should have said... thanks kerfooly but I did do a task 29 and then installed WM again and it didn't change anything either! It's weird, it's like there's one part that task 29 or installing a rom doesn't touch and that one part has somehow got changed...

Wi-fi & USB

Hi Guys

1st of all, thank u kerfooly for the great job. Followed ur guidance and installed my 1st droid (IceDroid V7) perfectly. It's fast and stable but (there is always some but) ...

a) All Wi-fi connecting signals are "poor" and the phone never connects.

Tried connecting to a router with no security at all (just MAC filtering) wich antenna is right beside the device and signals keeps poor and dont connect.

Tried an ad-hoc wireless connection with W7 (notebook and PDA are side by side) giving poor signal and never connects.

I was using radio 1.17.25.09 ... downgraded to 1.16.25.48 and 1.14.25.55 from here but no changes at all.

Any advices ?

b) USB Connection

When plugged to USB, the phone starts recharging (as expected) but the device does not appear at Devices Manager. Not even the plugged notification appears on the X1.

Going into Settings > Applications > Development and turning USB Debugging ON, an "Android USB Device > My HTC" (drivers OK) and "Others Devices > CDC Serial" (drivers not found) entries appears on Devices Manager. A new disk drive is found and, when SD card is inserted, the files are available on Windows.

Then, I've tried installing HTC Sync but the software does not identifies any devices. (Note: before installing it, the device recognized by Windows was "HTC Desire")

When I try "USB Tethering" sometimes it gives me "USB not connected" (wich is) or a message that it's in data mode and can't perform tethering.

Any sugestions ?

Best regards.

Back to Winmo

if you flash a rom and stuck in screen calibration, you can try to flash a ROM without screen calibration, or you can cook one and flash with SDCard Method. then your x1 would be ok.

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] xerxes86:
Hi,

first of all, thanks a lot for the effort you put in this tutorial.

Two days ago I was a total noob when it comes to Roms and I still am, but I followed your guide and in the end I managed to work it all the way to the end. I used the word "manage" because it wasn't easy, so I hope you take my criticism as feedback from a noob to a pro:

First of all, without the Videos I wouldn't have made it all the way to the End.

Why? Because you do not number your steps. For example: I needed quite some time to get it in my head that I have to deal with two differnet bootloader.

Also it would be preferable to reorganise the files. Maybe a List of Links at the beginning with all files you will need while following the tutorial. And also the links should be accessable for everyone without registering first.

Recovery: Your tutorial says I should press the power button until recovery starts. That didnt work out for me. I finally figured from the vids that I have to keep pressing the Camera Button.

Linux/Windows: Maybe it owuld be good to make it more visible what is necessary fro Windows and what is for Linux.

As I said at the beginning: Just a few thoughts.

Thank you for your work.

Keep it up!

I have simple question. Is it possible to flash android without SD card? I am asking because I have this phone, but it can't read cards (smth is broken).

Thank you for answer.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
I have the exact same problem, install linux on a virtual PC and use the Xperoid Fastboot tool app
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
Hey brian, my device and me could be your rat as my SIM and SD card slots are gone and im Free till may, I can help in the development too but first you got to help me here

I cant manage to list my device through ADB shell, it keeps saying Error:no device found, but the fastboot and fastboot commands work perfectly, like fastboot devices shows me ? fastboot, but ADB commands don't work as ADB cant list my device, what am I doing wrong?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
I searched a bit more and apparently bootloader can perform Fastboot only, unless you flash a boot.img, but CWM recovery should always do ADB,

anyhow I tried flashing a boot.img and after that I couldnt go to bootloader as the kernel doesnt let me, its recovery or its android kernel and booting the system which I dont have

from other side, i tried connecting the device in CWM recovery, the PC detects it as XDA instead of the bootloader's XPERIA X1 name tag, and ADB shell still gives me error saying no device found, I even tried the intial V4.x recovery and even flashing a boot.img and then recovery but no hope,

is there anyway you could dump your ROM as system.img for me and upload it, you can do that by this tool

Or use a kitchen and repack the ROM in system.img form
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kerfooly:
yes, you got the fastboot and ADB difference correctly

Damn I was really looking forward to contribute, the ROMDUMP app can work trough terminal emulator too, maybe that will help as USB ADB is buggy, here is the guide
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Alfieri21:
Thank you all for advices.

I disassembled the phone and I tried to find problem. I found out, that when I insert SD card I have to remove battery and push the card with stylus toward to the contacts and then phone recognize the card.

So I finaly flashed Android with SD card.

I would like to thank you for answering my problem.

Merry Christmas guys!

Hey guys

I installed this version and it works,but I can't run this step :

If you used the .7z file method,
copy the fastboot folder to C:\
Open Command prompt on your PC (Start menu > Run > type "cmd.exe")
type:

"cd c:\fastboot"

"fastboot flash boot boot.img"

"fastboot reboot"

So I can't find CDC Serial driver for windows 7 x64,

EDIT: This Problem occurs only if you format the SD-Card in NTFS. You have to use FAT32 !!!

Hi everybody ;-)

I tried to flash the Nand rom. But I stuck at the Point:

In Recoverymode:

-> Go to apply update from SDcard

The Log of Recovery says:

-- Install from sdcard...

Finding update package...

I:Update Location: /sdcard/update.zip

Installation aborted.

1. if i try "install zip from sd card" and choose the right sd card file, I get the same error

Hi all ;-)

Android is in NAND mode very fast compared to Android from the SD-Card, but it isn't stable enough for daily use. I had a few issues:

-you can't lock the screen with a pattern

-if you turn the screen of and you want to start it again, sometimes the phone reboots or it just shows nothing like a black screen. Then you have to imagine the unlockscreen and touch the screen where the lock is to see something on the screen.

-sometimes, if you turn the screen of and you want to turn it on again, the phone just reboots. (This is my main faktor not to use it as daily. you only have to start an application like facebook messenger or something like that and turn off the screen. If you turn it on again, the screens stays black and the phone reboots)

-if you slide out the keyboard to type something the screen turns. But if you slide in the keyboard again, the screen does not turn back.

Should I report more issues and errors?

Found missing cdc drivers!!!!!!

Hi, I wanna share with you the missing CDC drivers for android X1.

Here are the instructions for installing:

Method one (if you installed the other drivers; use HTC sync or the google drivers):

1. Downlaod the file from the link https://www.rapidshare.com/#!download|665|1903295151|Google_Nexus_S_usb_drv.zip|8666 and extract the folder with the driver in an optional directory;

2. Connect your phone via USB and wait for it to establish connection;

3. Once it's done, it will prompt you to install CDC drivers. Go to "Install from a list or a specific location (Advanced)";

4. Uncheck "Removable media" and choose "Include this location in the search:" and choose the directory where you extracted the .ZIP. Click "next" and you'r done!!!

Method two:

1. Find "Driver Genius Pro" (With Crack) and install it;

2. Than connect your device via USB - for it to establish conenction; cancel all Windows promts for drivers installation;

3. Open Driver Genius and click on "Scan Now". Once the scan is done, it will ask you to download the drivers. Do it!!

4. After that click on "install" on the down right corner. NOTE: you can install the drivers one by one.

5. Than, if it's OK, close and you're done!!!

But unfortunatley, due to a bug with the ROM, we can't mount Mass Storage. You can use a card reader or bluetooth. But at least you will have the drivers installed!!! :D:D:D

Please give feedback.

Regards!!!

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neoofoox:
hi guys,

when I charge my phone for more than 10 hours while in Android (NAND latest from alex) it doesn't really charge, after about 10-15minutes the phone turn off because of too low batterie.

I tried to charge it, while phone is in fastboot mode but there was the same issue.

So there a 2 possibilities:

1. Does the phone charge the batterie but Android/Kernel thinks batterie is empty?

2. The phone doesn't charge...

Is there anyone with the same problem?

I know that alex is fixing this with next release but that's quite strange... because I haven't read that this happend someone before...
