Edit: Sorry just ignore this. I forgot to do a search in rpierce99's GetLogs thread.

Arrrghhh

I use the latest version of GetLogs from rpierce99, as I did in GBX0C. But I have problem with this NAND OMGB Build. When I want it to output as a file, I get this: Syntax error U_REGEX_RULE_SYNTAX near index 1: my phone number ^

Do you have an idea about what it is? I have already tried GetLogs again after reboot but same thing shows up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Really strange that GetLogs would fail specifically on OMGB.

Are you installing the same GetLogs version on OMGB as you are on GBX NAND? I think you said you were, I just want to make very sure that's the case.

Not sure why userland would affect GetLogs in this way. You're not putting any custom filters in, right? The box is completely empty - no spaces, carats, etc.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
I'm pretty sure the carat is a red herring. It's pointing at what character is triggering the error.

Do double-check the version. This issue was resolved a while back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Eric Z:
Yes very sure. It is the SAME one from GetLogs thread.:)

Not sure what you mean about custom filters? If it is the Mask Strings in GetLogs you are referring to, then I don't think I have ever touch that box, so there should not be any space/carats etc. But I can not be absolutely sure about this. Writting/do any thing in that Mask Strings is not the way I am used to GetLogs. :rolleyes:

I have already reported this issue to rpierce99. I knew this issue should already be fixed, but unfortunately, it happens on me:( And unfortunately I can't test it again because I already moved to GBX0 NAND. If you gentlemen think it is essential to test it on my Rhod 100 with OMGB, then just let me know.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
lol, my friend you are cursed!

No worries if it doesn't work for you on this ROM - it works for everyone else OK, so it's nothing to worry about it seems...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Eric Z:
I know I am absolutely cursed, when I get up this morning and find out that my Rhod 100 on GBX0 Nand has both GetLogs problem and sleep problem:p So I don't even know where I shall post the logs from adb shell:o

So arrrghhh please pay attention to the GetLogs thread, I will first post the logs there.:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] visegrip72:
Noticed first post still says WEP does not work, did not see if someone posted this info. I have it working, the issue is one from the dual boot time. WEP is saved in settings as BOTH open and shared key. Install something like wifi ace and choose the proper one, un-selecting the other, and WEP works just fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yes, this is in the FAQ as a workaround. WEP is still horribly insecure and should never be used, under any circumstances.

If you have any options, or can talk to the admin of whatever system, HAVE THEM GET OFF OF WEP.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Nighthawk243:
Agreed. It only takes a few minutes using Aircrack-ng to break it.

Wifi in general isn't all that secure, but WPA is much harder to burn through. Our company computers issued for government work have the wireless disabled since the fed disallows wireless and satellite internet.

Hi, thank for theses details,

I have Rhod100, and no way to find the GPS setting in the general settings (with wireless and mobile settings) ???. I'have already applied the gps_update.zip successfully.

What's wrong ??

Help please

1. logs.

1a. Are you sure you flashed it properly in CWM?

2. No clue what you mean, please explain.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DJ_MiX:
Yes 100% sure..

will not power on, will not go into bootloader mode.

But when usb cable inserted only get amber light..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sounds like it's charging.

But if you're 100% sure, then it must be bricked. 100%. :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DJ_MiX:
Ok I'm not 100% sure now I left the battery out for 12HRS and inserted a fully charge battery and it powered on, I then shut it off and try power on no go.

So I'm going to leave it out 12hrs again and this time try flashing windows nbh via sd card and test.

Hi,

I have some question to bother you guys :)

- if i want to go back to winmo, how can i do that?

- I see some [nand] android for TP2 right now ( one of delude, one of [ACL] and one of GBX0C), but i don't now what 'nand' is the best for daily using, please advice :).

Thanks

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] wizardknight:
To go back to WM all you have to do is flash a WM rom from the sd card. I have had to do this a few times for various reasons, and it is easy.

I am running with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1641555 as my daily rom. It is very stable.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1347321 has a better battery drive, but older kernel and will probably not be receiving more updates per ACL.

You can try both, and see what you like more. Both have upsides depending on what you are doing.

If you know nothing about flashing from a SD card read this thread.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] solnt:
Can you explain more about flash WM rom from the sd card. I google and i see that using the file *.nbh and rename it to RHODIMG.nbh but don't sure about cook WM rom, is this the same?

I will try the nand of @detule first and see if it fix for me or not ;)

Thanks

sol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] wizardknight:
It may be best to ask your WM flashing questions in the WM threads.

I suggest that you learn about WM flashing first. Android flashing has more steps, and is not as simple. It is worth the effort though.

You might want to consider a SD card build rather than a nand build. It is much easier to setup.

This is what I suggest.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
x2. solnt, please quit asking about WinMo in the Android development section. Obviously to get back to WinMo, you flash back WinMo - via SD or USB, just as you would flash any WinMo ROM - nothing there has changed, nor will it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agibby5:
While reading the instructions, #5 says "Must have some knowledge on how to flash images!!! (using recovery)". Where can I read more about this process? Thanks.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] solnt:
Thanks for all that infomation

I'm used TP2 Verizon before and now is SS2, and flash cooked WM rom on TP2 or flash unofficial rom by CWM on SS2 is something that member of xda do ;).

So, If i'm successful install nand android on TP2( and have CWM on it) and then want to go back WM then:

This way ...

- Download official rom or cooked rom WM

- Extract to get the file *.nbh and rename it to RHODIMG.nbh

- Place it in root folder of sd card

- Reboot into CWM

- Flash it like any android rom.

Or ..

- Download official rom or cooked rom WM

- Connect USB cable

- Run RUUupgrade.exe file

Please advice me,

Thanks

sol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] wizardknight:
Flashing a WM rom wipes out the CWM. Otherwise you are mostly on the right track.

Post 1 of this thread covers reloading a WM rom. Follow steps 0-8.

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/cdma-tp2-...sh-rom-radio-re-locking-your-tp2-sd-card.html
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This really isn't the place to discuss it --> but the short story is yes. You simply flash ANY WinMo ROM to get back to WinMo. Simple!! Not sure why everyone gets hung up on how to get back to WinMo... :p

But you seem to indicate you can have both. It doesn't work like that - you flash WinMo, you have WinMo. You flash Android, you have Android... Obviously you can boot the SD builds via HaRET thru WinMo.

So yes, flash back WinMo using any method to flash WinMo you desire. It will work, but as previously stated Android will get wiped - no more CWM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agibby5:
Yup. That's what I was looking for. Do you happen to know where I can get the .apk to install this? I'm assuming this will have to be installed on an SD card install in order to get the ROM flashed first and foremost.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You mean CWM? CWM isn't an APK, you have to install CWM thru fastboot...

Unless I'm missing something? Please follow the directions and let us know what step you're struggling with...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Slipdoozy:
the red are my only additions to a copied from NAND How-To from ACL's link from the OP!

i cant believe you would just jump into this without following plain and simple directions? if this is to difficult please stop now...

(Follow Carefully and be patient )

If you already have are running NAND perform a Task29!!

1.Place the all zip files on your SDCARD

2.Place the recovery.img in your Fastboot folder

3.Flash the new NBH, LK will load (USB must be plugged in prior to starting)

4.Open a CMD window and cd to your Fastboot folder

5.Erase everything to start out fresh... (Not necessary if you performed a Task29)

In your CMD window type these commands:

¦"Fastboot erase recovery"

¦"Fastboot erase boot"

¦"Fastboot erase misc"

¦"Fastboot erase system"

¦"Fastboot erase userdata" <use userdata instead of data

¦"Fastboot erase cache"

6.Load the recovery.img with fastboot:

?In your CMD window type this command:

¦"Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

7.Reboot: (Or hit the reset button)

?In your CMD window type this command:

¦"Fastboot reboot"

8.Once LK is starting to load (Blue screen) press and hold the "POWER BUTTON" until you feel it vibrate(Top button). LK will let you know when it detected a press.

9.Your recovery should load

10.To Navigate in Recovery you can use the Vol UP/DOWN(Move UP/DOWN), END Call Key(Enter/Select) or the keyboard arrows with the enter key.

11.Select "apply update from sdcard".

12.Select "OMGB_rhodium-1.2.3-05042012.zip" and wait for it to finish installing.

13.Select "reboot system now"

14.Your device should now be installed and should load.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
Yeah, there's two major steps missing in those instructions: First, you have to have HardSPL, and second, step 3 is wholly inadequate for a first-time user. How do you "flash" something? I had to ask in #xdandroid to get an answer when I was putting GBX0C+NAND on my phone.

Getting HardSPL: See this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=550131

Be very careful with this. Don't try to be clever or change anything. Make sure your battery is fully charged before you get started.

Unfortunately, this requires running Windows, so if you're a Linux or Mac user you'll have to borrow someone else's computer. (I wouldn't risk trying to do it through WINE; I don't think it'd work and this step is a brick risk anyway so I wouldn't do anything that might not work.)

Flashing a ROM: Once you have a RHODIMG.nbh file on your SD card, you need to put the phone into bootloader mode.

* Turn the phone off.

* Take off the back cover. (Don't know if this is required but it can't hurt.)

* Hold Volume Down.

* Turn the phone on.

This will cause the phone to come up with a screen with colored bars on it. There will be instructions on-screen for how to flash it on. When it's done, use the stylus to push the reset button.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
lol, yes we assume you know how to flash and you've already done HSPL. That's required to flash ANY WinMo ROM, c'mon...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
The original question -- two pages back now -- was specifically about not knowing how to flash images. Perhaps the specific user in question here was already using a custom WinMo ROM, but there IS no good everything-in-one-place guide on how to do this if you've never done it before. Now there is, although not in a very good location and it really ought to be consolidated into a howto somewhere. (Maybe I'll do that later.)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yes, this is xda-developers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] wizardknight:
That's a great idea. You should totally do that. I bet it would help to reduce the simple questions showing up in the thread.

Maybe it will encourage more people to become developers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
arrrghhh, how did I know you were going to say exactly that? It's a developer's forum, and I don't deny that, but (1) everyone has to start somewhere, and (2) this isn't a question that's easy to answer with a search. I *am* a developer (though not an Android one) and I still had to ask for help finding the answer to that question. I'm paying it forward; I'm sharing my knowledge with the community -- this is basic hacker etiquette. You don't ask a question and then disappear with the answer.

Anyway, to avoid further off-topic discussion (because my original post that was criticized WAS on-topic and this meta-discussion is very much NOT) I will put all of this information together into a step-by-step how-to.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I really don't think it's that difficult if you actually read the directions.

If you've flashed a WinMo ROM, that part is identical. The only part that gave me trouble was fastboot - it's a little finnicky. Not sure how to write a guide around that tho...

Feel free to create whatever you want tho, that's the beauty of open source.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Eric Z:
I have observed something interesting about charging battery on this OMGB rom:

When I charge the battery while phone is on, it will charge to around 93%-95% and then greenlight. And I measure voltage of the battry using a multimeter, it always has, almost always, voltage reading at around 4.07 V. I never get itthe battery charged to a higher voltage value.

But if I turn off the phone and charge it, the greenlight will never show(always stay on orange-light), but the battery, after a time, can easily be charged to 4.15 v.

4.07v VS 4.15v, that is a kind of different, in my eyes. Just finding this interesting.:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
And if you haven't, that's the part that's missing from ACL's instructions.

This is intentional behavior. You don't want to overcharge a battery; while it does give you somewhat extended time on the charge, it reduces the longevity of the battery itself. So the charging software will fast-charge it up to 95%-ish, trickle-charge it up to around 99%, and then let the phone discharge the battery down to around 90% before trickle-charging it back up again. (I don't know if these are technical terms.) It's an efficient use of AC power and extends the life of the battery compared to maintaining 100% charge.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I guess it's assumed you have done this simple step... T'was the first thing I did when I got my RHOD.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
I didn't try customizing mine right away -- I got mine second-hand from my mom and she'd loaded on a fair chunk of stuff onto the stock ROM. After getting fed up with the limitations and problems of the stock ROM, I was already convinced I didn't want to go to some other WinMo ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agent777:
Hi guys,

is this port meant even for a serious long-term use? Or is it more of a fun experiment?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ranomez:
this is the best rom in stability terms, i cant say this has a great battery life and no bug, but it is best as stability, for better battery life id recommend a build whit a 3.x kernel, as for customization id recomend cyanogenmod, if ur not interested in customization try the gbx0* nand kernel 3.x build, i didnt try that, but saw it at a freind and it works preety good, not sure........but id recomend starting whit this build and switching to others after.......
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
All Android development on WinMo devices are fun experiments.

Some choose to run them full-time. It's really up to you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agent777:
Yeah, but I asked, because I wanted to know whether someone uses them normally, full-time, in the long-term... If it's stable enough and so on...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Again, that's really a decision you have to make.

As I said before, there are several people that use this daily, full-time, long term. I used to before I got a new phone. It certainly can be done... I preferred it to WinMo.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ranomez:
i actually use nandroid full time, this build was great as in stability terms, but i feelt like i need more customization options so i switched to the not so stable cyanogenmod7 rom, to your question i think u must decide if its good enought for you to use it as ur daily build, but i just can say there are many android phones that move slower than this non android phone (if u understand what i say) after u flash android on nand, so, yah i guess its just up to you and what you need from your phone, i must say from the start that if you know how to use it in such a way to reduce ram usage it can move verry fast and be used every day, but again that is for you to discover how fast you need your phone vs how "cool" you want it to look...what i can say is you should just try and see.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eurohunter:
I don't remember the WinMo interface anymore. it's been a half year since i last saw WinMo on my phone. :D Currently on Nand GBX0* as I find it more stable and with a better battery life.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ranomez:
lol, yah, i guess thats the most stable, but its not on my taste, i prefear to run the cm7 one cause its just as customisable as i want it to be, omgb was a bit customizable also, but idk, i just feelt it wasnt really enought..........
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agibby5:
A few pages ago I asked a few stupid questions. I saw some other version of CWM Recovery apk out there for other Android devices which allowed you to flash from within Android. Sorry for my confusion. I'm going to post back here so that I can help others who might need it.

I don't know why I waited so long to flash this; it literally just took me about 15 minutes to get it up and running!

Obviously, follow the steps in the README

I stumbled upon this thread which points to this blog (How To Set Up ADB/USB Drivers for Android Devices (Updated 12/13/11)) which helped me out immensely to get the Android SDK up and running in short order!

Here's Task29 for Rhod (if you don't want to run the fastboot commants). Someone even made a video.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] :
I just got my Rhod400 today and this was the first thing I flashed :D

Nice and fast, and I don't have any major issues to report just yet..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agibby5:
I am thoroughly impressed with this build. I'm running now for about 40 hours now on one charge! I've repeatedly reported battery issues on the SD card build where I got about 10-12 hours on a charge. With the exact same usage (very little) at the same geographical location, I'm getting so much better usage with NAND. I'm not sure if it's NAND or the kernel or what, but I'm a happy camper now. I even flashed it to my girlfriend's phone and she's noticed a considerable increase in battery life as well. Thanks so much!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
ACL did a LOT of work to reverse engineer the WinMo batt driver.

Unfortunately his .27 kernel on this OMGB ROM is the only benefactor currently. 3.x, HaRET etc do not have that new magic.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] n2rjt:
Can we fix that? I can merge the code changes but don't currently have my Ubuntu system set up to build. Where are the repos for ACL's kernel and the latest?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] agibby5:
I think this should be a priority for any developer who wants to tackle it. I think this code is so valuable and would make the complaints about poor battery life go away. I'm a programmer by day but have never done anything with Android before and haven't even put too much thought to this project besides getting it up and running on my phone and my girlfriend's phone for daily use. I'm guessing that merging the changes is tricky or else it would have been done already.

FWIW, my phone died with just over 42 hours of use. Not too shabby.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I'm sure if it was simple, detule and/or ACL would've already ported it to 3.x/HaRET respectively...

http://gitorious.org/~acl/linux-on-qualcomm-s-msm/linux-msm-rhod-nand
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] n2rjt:
I'm the same - an embedded developer by day, and I've worked on the HTC Kaiser Android port, especially the battery code. I'll take a look at the stuff but as arrrghhh says . . . if it were simple it would already be done.

Thanks! I'll give it a try, but you already know to not hold your breath.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] detule:
I just wanted to weigh in - the reason that this hasn't been done yet is not that it's difficult to integrate with the new kernels. I personally haven't done it because I respect ACL, and would feel somewhat bad if I kanged his battery code within days of him committing it. Sounds like he worked pretty hard at it, and I think he and his kernel should enjoy some exclusivity.

We had a brief conversation with ACL and he somewhat passed on the opportunity to try and unify the kernels - so there's that. Not to blame him, the guy has a life and let's be honest, hard to get motivated when the user base likely numbers in the dozens.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] wizardknight:
So there might be hope for a kernel that could both have great battery life, and be able to tether without crashing? :) OOOO I want.
