Some questions:

1- If I upgrade from RC1 to RC2, do I lose all my apps & data?

2- If so is it possible to use "Titanium Backup/My Back up Pro" to back up and reinstall my apps/settings if I am changing the data.img size to 1024MB?

3- I know I have to re-flash zImage and initramfs, but for the main files do I use the boot up menu (Recovery System: Update Firmware) or do I repeat the exact initial install process for RC1 all over again?

I usually reflash my other CM devices via CWM. I'll be grateful if anyone can answer theses. -Thanks.

so what does this offer over say urukdroid 1.5 ?

aside from it being 2.3 :)

How to install gapps ? Please help me ?:confused:
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
1) yes, in future releases not anymore, because of the added data.img.

2) I don't know never used it.

3) First flash initramfs and zImage in Developer menu there is an option for that. Then just copy the new image in the root of your archos and rename it to openaos-gingerbread.img.gz No unpacking needed. When you want to use the 1024 data.img copy that also to the root of your archos and be sure to rename it to data.img

@Greenthy nothing

@teo91 read the wiki http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/Android...ngGingerbreadthefirsttimeandinstallgoogleapps

sorry found what was wrong
[Gen8 Android Development] l'irlandais:
finally it worked

a question how i can manage to auto boot on gingerbread ?
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
kernel_gen8_20111224_213037.tar.gz this you have to unpack for the new zImage and initramfs.cpio.gz that needs to be flashed. In recovery Development menu there is an option todo that. If you don't do that and probably have an old initramfs.cpio.gz and zImage flashed then the image file will not automaticly be detected by the bootmenu.

openaos-gingerbread-bull-gen8_115101.img.gz This is the actual image file. You can unpack it, but it is not needed if it is still packed it will be unpacked by the bootmenu on first boot. However be sure to rename it.

If still packed the name must be openaos-gingerbread.img.gz If you unpack it the name must be openaos-gingerbread.img

BTW the *.md5sum are there to check if your download isn't corrupted. They are a fingerprint of the file so it can be easily checked if it is still correct when you have downloaded it. More info http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Md5sum Normally you don't use those only if you have problems, you can easily verify that your files are correct and then move on with troubleshooting if they are.

thank you very much it worked

[Gen8 Android Development] SamSan:
Super Likee!!!

Worked like charm...

But there are problems with browser..

It does not open some of the sites.. or takes hell lot of time to open the web page itself.

Is this a know bug?

One more.. thing few apps are still not available in the market like facebook ;)

Any fix for this?:)
[Gen8 Android Development] philocritus:
after a reboot the setup app should launch auto.

I did this for RC1 and it worked, but it doesn't work for RC2. I'm guessing it has something to do with recovering a backup from titanium before running the gapps installer.

I'll do a clean install and check if that's the problem.

divx118 is there some temp files from bull rc1 left on the a101 storage memory that we should clean up before installing RC2?

Debug and modules

Hi everyone,

Thanks a lot for your wonderfull work. Im a litle noob and i dont know what to do with debug an d modules files inside "kernel_gen8_20111224_213037.tar.gz".

Can any expert help me?
[Gen8 Android Development] philocritus:
you don't need to do anything with the debug modules in there. ignore them.

You'll just need to extract the zimage and initramfs.cpio.gz into the flash menu.

follow the wiki on how to flash these two files
[Gen8 Android Development] rapunzel11:
You can delete the Archos Android Kernel. Go to Recovery System (by pressing the volume up key)--->Developer Edition Menu--->Remove Android Kernel. Your device boots now direct into the openaos bootmanager. Archos firmware was not deleted. You can still boot it up from the openaos-manager.
[Gen8 Android Development] PotentChili:
Seems okay for a while, then it starts to get hot and frequently reboots, makes a sad noise when it does too. RC1 and 2 by the way.

[Gen8 Android Development] akmalhisyam:
the kernel for the stock rom is not fully rooted am i right?

i cannot modify the system file in the stock rom.

how to make the stock rom fully rooted with R/W?
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Should be rooted, it is using unionfs to do this. In "advanced menu" in boot menu you can turn it off and on. If it there says "Disable Rooted Device" then unionfs is enabled and you should have R/W access. I will check, if it still works. Forgot to check this with newest initramfs.

BTW what file are you trying to modify?

divx118
[Gen8 Android Development] akmalhisyam:
i'm trying to replace wpa_supplicant with the one from urukdroid..

i want to connect to ad-hoc network on stock rom..
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Ok just tested this. I used the terminal app to modify /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf.

Just typed "su" and then "vi /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf" Did some changes and checked with "cat /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf" if they where written to the file.

It just worked.

BTW I assume you use the kernel (zImage) and initramfs.cpio.gz from openaos and you boot into stock android using the bootmenu choosing archos, else it will not work.

[Gen8 Android Development] yepayepa:
Playing with RC2 till yesterday I've just noticed a small bug.

The notifications list dropdown is inverted in motion if the notification bar is set to bottom. I mean, if you have few notifications, moving up/down the list doesn't work, since the sliding motion is inverted.
[Gen8 Android Development] akmalhisyam:
maybe there's something wrong with my installation..

i cant even get su to work..

i'll try to reinstall everything..

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

update:

i've reinstall everything, it works now..

my stock rom can now connect to ad-hoc :)
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
Do you have an A101?

@akmalhisyam Nice :)

Nope, a A70s

[Gen8 Android Development] yepayepa:
Great! And many thanks to everyone involved in this port, nice job!
[Gen8 Android Development] yepayepa:
Oh, I forgot to mention one thing.

Since I have installed a lot of games for my kids, I triggered a market installation failure, due of no more free space.

After checking, /data was mounted, but installing app use space on root fs too.

The solution I used is to increase the gingerbread image, with resize2fs, up to 512Mb. Now, everything is running without a glitch, except the small bug of notification list.

Cheers.

[Gen8 Android Development] wozhere:
Just had time to upgrade my archos70, its restoring apps/data from Titanium which takes time. It seems unsure about root. Can't mount R/W in RootExplorer, firstsays SU granted then says failed. Same thing intalling busybox (little app called "busybox installer" which downloads bb & does it), first says SU granted then says failed and stops. Checked n terminal and gives me SU ok. In bootup DE advanced says rooted, tried toggling there and even booting with not rooted just in case but no difference. Works with Titanium & terminal & Superuser app though but not others like RootExplorer & busybox. I often used RootExplorer before to toggle R/O & R/W and just used busybox installer app today so they did work in RC1 but not in RC2. Seems it is half rooted(!), Strange.

P.S. All apps & data successfully restored by Titanium Backup Pro so saving about 6 hours work and market is auto-updated to the new 3.4.4 version too and RC2 is running smooth as silk. Thanks a lot to divx118 for some more great work.
[Gen8 Android Development] ZakMcRofl:
I got the 250 Gb HDD version, A70H. Is this firmware adjusted to HDD installations? I had many crash problems with Urukdroid and I fear that it is due to the fact that almost no devs have the HDD version.

Is there a specific install method I should follow for the HDD archos?
[Gen8 Android Development] divx118:
It should also work with HDD same procedure, however you are right. None of us has an HDD version.

So if you run into problems please report them. As always problems with a logcat attached are prefered, else it is just guessing for us.

divx118

EDIT: @wozhere, I know you mean it well by copying the wiki page. However a wiki will change and then the links or info in your post will be outdated. This will then leave us with more work, because people are following the wrong guide. Please just link to the wiki pages themselves. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] yentlequible:
This has been happening on basically every rom that I flash. It never happens as soon as I flash, but will start happening within a few weeks usually. I am running Octane right now, and absolutely love it. It is very fast and I have amazing battery life. The last week I have been using it have been a nightmare though. Almost every time I open messaging and dialer, they will instantly close again. It isn't a force close though. It is just like I hit the home button right after opening them. This is extremely annoying, does anyone have a solution?

[Nexus S General] dskyers:
I think its dumb you guys locked the ics thread. Regardless if it was drews actual post or not the whole point of android is do what you want and ics and a port and thread and comments and rants and what not is the whole point of forums like this. Hello nexus s development has not one thing on it about ics. That should seem odd. Maybe I need to fire up my nexus one. How can we progress if u take away the online progress. I understand the guy has his own site and what not but that was are only insight into ics on xda. And we use the only phone that's going to get it first . Stop being online nerds. And let people complain there going to do it anyways. And then its too complicated they way you want it. Every post is not going to to as nice a professional as a cm thread. Let people talk that's how you come to understand not every body is a phone guru. You need conversation as well as knowledge. I'm just sayin. Now when is beta 10 coming who knows but I bet the guy with the random twitter post knows more than I do but we can't share that info now. You guys are missing the whole point. Just sayin. And to anyone who is personally offended sorry excuse the marijuana and red stripe. Helllllllllo laddddddy lol

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] blufreak:
I know this has been covered several times on multiple posts so i've tried every possibility i can find before posting this, i managed to install xrecover and CM7 onto an old X8 first time round no problems at all.

I moved onto my main phone the x10 MP and i've tried everything,the manual copy files into system/bin (canging the permissions) using flashtool to install busybox and xrecovery, and using the apk's recommended on here. None of which are allowing me to boot into the xrecovery menu. i genuinely am stumped. i've tried repairing via seus etc. I've also tried xrecover0.3 and the xrecovery mini version aswell. also both pressing the back button and sliding the phone open and closed a few times.

Any suggestions as im bored of stock eclair and golauncher now
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sunil.s125:
1)go into settings>applications>development>turn on usb debugging .

2)connect your phone with pc through the usb and then select charge phone option on your phone .

3)extract the rar file and open the superoneclick

4)click on the root option

5)if no errors occur your phone is now rooted with xrecovery installed..

6)then reboot and press the back key when the se logo appers and you will in xrecovery menu.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] blufreak:
I originally used S..O.C to root my fone,didnt know that automatically installs xrecovery too. So best bit is unroot and re-root? Will try and get back to you. Thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] blufreak:
as i suspected,superoneclick does not appear to install xrecovery,only busybox, so am nowhere nearer resolving this. any got any more ideas?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sunil.s125:
Pls try the superoneclick which I have provided you In the link above ... it installs xrecovery ....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sunil.s125:
k

open the installxrec.bat file in the superoneclick folder it will root your phone first then install the xrecovery.

reboot and then press the back button 3-4 times when you see the se logo at boot you will be in the xrecovery menu :).

dont forget to click the thanks button....

SEXperia X10 mini pro, adroid 2.1 update 1 on tmobile. Baseband *****015 kernek 2.6.29

i've tried all these methods,scripts,manually moving the busybox,chargmon and xrecovery files to system/bin.

when my fone boots I get just sony ericcson in white writing, then a second one which is the animated sony ericsson logo etc, pressin back all the way through both of these,none of the methods work even after unrooting,repairing and then starting clean. Always says its installed but never lets me access it. Seriously,what am I missing??? The X8 was soooooo easy to do
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sunil.s125:
do one thing now, reinstall the official rom through the se update service or se pc companion software after installation run the installxrec.bat file from the superoneclick folder which i have provided in the link above it will definately do the trick as i was also getting this same problem..

Just use flashtool to do it all, root, install xrec... it will do the necessary reboots and you can use flashtool to tell the phone to boot into recovery too, it's so much easier...

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
Did you use flashtool to root your device or superoneclick?

The phone needs a reboot after rooting, and one after installing busybox, flashtool will do that automatically, superoneclick won't.

Even when it says Root Access Allowed it is no guarantee that it will work.

Did you get a message on your phone to allow root-access to a service requesting that? you should tick the remember-tickbox and the yes-button.

You will only see that message if your phone is not on the lock-screen.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] seanyuan62:
Are you sure it is actually connected to the wifi? Have you tried to load a web page?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
Sounds like your wifi antenna coax might have come off the little connector at the end of the coax.

If that's what happened, it's not terribly hard to fix.

Did you drop your phone on the ground before this problem started happening?

Sounds like a hardware issue because you said you've tried other operating systems on the phone and the problem persists.

And since you do get a tiny bit of a signal when your phone is right next to your router, the actual wifi circuitry is still functional.

I have had my wifi coax unattached, and was able to get a very slight wifi signal with my phone right next to the router.

Try loading a webpage via wifi with your phone right next to your router.

If it loads the page, then your wifi does in fact work. Then the problem is very likely to be a disconnected or damaged wifi coax, which is pretty easy to fix, and cheap to buy.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] headphonezz:
yes i can load webpages when it stays connect would you happen you know a guide or tut i can follow to fix this. I actually just fixed my other hd2 and the wifi works fine so it must be hardware

[HTC Sensation] meanseens:
Hey guys. I'm using MIUI right now, latest build 110280, but I have had this same issue with any non sense rom (i.e. cm7).

Basically, I cannot get a notification badge counter (the little bubble that is on the top right corner of the SMS/Gmail/Phone icon that shows how many missed messages/calls you have) to work with the MAIL icon. With a Sense rom, it works no problem, but it doesn't seem to work on MIUI or non sense roms.

I've tried looking for some apps that would do this, but it seems like they only work for the GMAIL app and not normal mail app.

Any idea on how I can get around this? It's annoying to just have the mail icon in the top notification bar, I'd like to have a counter on the actual mail icon on my homescreen!

Thanks for the help!
