Hi Schlund!

I´m very happy with this photonic CM7.2. I have it installed since the release (NAND version), lots of applications running, wifi, gps and automatic updates allways on (olny last battery when needed) and the result is very good. I have battery usually for two days with moderate use.

The only fault is audio bluetooth and audio stereo from headphones. If you don't mind, could you tell us if there is a possibility to fix your build?. Personally I don't need froyo with sense 3,5 or ICS (if possible), this CM 7.2 is almost perfect for our mini

Thanks in advance!
[HD Mini Android Development] demonrosso:
Why is my phone screen does not display incoming calls, although calls from other machines still possible? Must reboot to finish this.
[HD Mini Android Development] bobdylan1:
Thanks for your great work :-)
[HD Mini Android Development] bobdylan1:
Hi

I have the same problem, it can see the wireless network but when I try to connect to it it never does :confused:
[HD Mini Android Development] ashu's htc:
updates pleassse ??

any updates for cm7.2 ??? expected period ???
[HD Mini Android Development] ashu's htc:
not working ?????
[HD Mini Android Development] speedfreak007:
I've installed it and it's actually pretty smooth. One question though: isn't it dangerous to overcharge the battery (with the bad battery driver at the moment)?
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
if you get "error" message when enabling wifi you should check if you really installed latest bootloader from topic!

@speedfreak007: critical things like charging are done by amss (hardware), so the answer is "no" :)
[HD Mini Android Development] swissly:
Schlund, nice to see that you are still around. Are you still working on the mini or is this project finished for you? :o
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
yeah, i had some very strange and busy weeks with illness and lots of work, but i am back at the project ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] swissly:
Great! Good to see you back Schlund! ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] Rcgzantvoo:
Yes indeed! Great to have you back! :) Watching this thread for a while now to make the HD mini of my girl a little more usefull!
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
i think i can carefully announce, that i will start a public test with a new battery driver next days :)
[HD Mini Android Development] swissly:
Wow great! And I am hoping there will be some update procedure so we do not have to reflash everything? ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
yes, its just another kernel.
[HD Mini Android Development] jomaga:
Great news Schlund!

Your Photonic rom is awesome

Any progress with the audio routing/stereo?

Thanks a lot!
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
spent lots of time with audio/bluetooth/fm-radio/stereo, i thought this problem will be solved by having exactly the same smem behavior like in wm.

Unfortunately i was wrong, and i am really out of ideas right now with it, any suggestion is welcome :)
[HD Mini Android Development] ToughGuy:
schlund:cool: so happy to see you again.
[HD Mini Android Development] ci6i:
It's good to have you back :) . I'm waiting for perfect driver and only you can do it.
[HD Mini Android Development] bobdylan1:
I have wiped everything twice and reinstalled the bootloader again but it still can't connect to wifi, is there a way I can tell it installed correctly?
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
please do:

and post the file here
[HD Mini Android Development] liorderei:
hi schlund,

thank you for everything!!! ur doing a great job and you make alot of people extremely happy!! :)

i have a really

*big problem*

when i connect to fastboot and running the bootloader.bat through my computer, it looks like it starts to transfer files but then suddenly my computer reboots itself without any warning or anything.

it happens in my laptop too!

in both i have win xp pro and i used the same adb driver..

i tried to update the driver to the 1 you published but when i choose it it says the computer cant find a better driver then the one already installed...

and i don't have the original htc cable so it might be that..

so it can be either because my driver is wrong or either because of my cable

i really hope u can help me and i appreciate it alot
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
that sounds very strange :/

was adb working before ? the phone should reboot, not your computer :P, if computer is rebooting it must be some hardware error, especially with the drivers. if your still having problems i recommend to download android sdk and download drivers with that tool. i can't believe its a cable problem, that usb cables are too simple.
[HD Mini Android Development] milan7171:
this version is great,battery and gps and wifi and keypad light(fix) is very good working.

what about hd video and audio and cut screen?are you working on?

and thanks for your efforts,i hope you successfull.
[HD Mini Android Development] liorderei:
thanks for the fast reply!! :)

i installed htc sync and it actually succeed to uninstall the old driver..i installed yours, but it still crash..

and i never tried to use the adb before..

ill try to download andriod sdk and see what happens..i really want to use your nand version :(

edit:it couldnt be because of the sd card could it?
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
no, i'm pretty sure sd-card is not the problem,

one thing you can also try (helped me a lot of times when having problems with usb driver): Try another usb port of your computer!

another question: have you ever been able to use some software for your phone on one of the computers ? like flashing shipped ROMs or costum ROM's with SSPL or sync via windows software ?
[HD Mini Android Development] old.splatterhand:
For everyone with driver problems, try to use android sdk too. It brings seperate drivers from google.

Thank you schlund, for this excellent Version. Working really good for me (as long as i can say in this short time of testing).

One problem i have faced:

When i plug my phone to pc and use it as mass drive to copy files it lose connection as soon as the screen is going off. When i push the screen to stay on, connection stays.

Anyone who can confirm?
[HD Mini Android Development] liorderei:
yeah i was able to change rom vie sspl in this computer but with the original cable
[HD Mini Android Development] marco1530:
wifi doesn't work why?
[HD Mini Android Development] :
Is it intended that adb (shell,logcat...) is not working after screen off?

I/power ( 187): *** set_screen_state 0

D/Sensors ( 187): BMA disabled

D/SurfaceFlinger( 187): About to give-up screen, flinger = 0xfc2c0

here adb freezes

I expirenced quite big battery drain last night (30% in 5 hours) its possible that ILWT oc daemon caused this. I removed it today so hopefully it will be better now.

anyway thanks for your great work schlund.

@marco1530

WiFi works. Please make sure that you did everything correctly from instructions provided by schlund. if youre 100% sure you did please try to give more specific info on your problem. Is there an error? Are you sure your router is configured correctly?
[HD Mini Android Development] halybobo:
Link don't work

Link don't work , plz upload to other host , thank
[HD Mini Android Development] marco1530:
I had the version where only the wifi worked. I went to upgrade and wifi was not telling me error. I haven't done a hard reset will depend on this?

Sorry my bad english
[HD Mini Android Development] :
You had different NAND rom before? if so you need to flash new bootloader (it fixes wifi).

Do all steps from schlund's guide.
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
Great job! You have reached traffic overload ;) links will be updated within the next 2 hours
[HD Mini Android Development] marco1530:
you've had a version before this ^ ^ nand what should I do? thank you for the support ^ ^
[HD Mini Android Development] brontolo999:
Hi schlund,

thanks for the great work you have been doing so far...

I would get some more information battery drain, namely:

1.. how long does the battery last?

2.. are there some apps reducing battery drain? do these apps really work??

3.. is the battery drain better in NAND version with respect to SD version?

Thanks for your support

---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------

I would ask for a fix for Audio via Bluetooth.... it's absolutely useful for safety while driving...

I hope you all agree with that :)

thanks (again & again!!)
[HD Mini Android Development] marco1530:
* _ * solved thx *_* schlund thx!!!!
[HD Mini Android Development] milan7171:
hi schlund,

will you update new version in the next 2 hours?

what a link?
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
First of all: I have updated links in 1st post and added a mirror!

Hi!

1. i dont know, if i would test that every time i make changes it would take ages to create a release :/ i have to trust smaller timelines with the battery driver, that really needs an update. its very inaccurate. I think i will continue there.

2. what i can confirm that it really helps is when you go to Settings->Cyanogenmod->...CPU_Goverment and enable the standard settings on boot.

3. should be about the same, nand could be a bit better cause its not running from that fast ext3 filesystem from sdcard and runs that "soft and secure" yaffs2 filesystem from nand instead.
[HD Mini Android Development] Vogelhaus7:
Is there an update on the files or only the same files on another server ?

ps: pm.
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
same files, different server :) no updates
[HD Mini Android Development] bobdylan1:
Thanks, is this easy to do as I don't know how to do this? Any pointers would be great :-)
[HD Mini Android Development] bobdylan1:
Ok, ran thru the install process for the 3rd time (!) and looks like the wifi issue is fixed :)

Weird but looks like it's working, cheers :D
[HD Mini Android Development] bas.bas:
You seem solved the problem but if you want to know what he meant ...

Schlund is written that you have to use ADB (Android Debug Bridge) which is actually interface (command line) and serves for communication between an Android device and a PC.

what he expected, that you do:

- If not before, install ADB

- Connect phone via USB

- Run ADB

- Enter command "adb pull proc / calibration cal.txt" and press enter, now "calibration cal.txt" will be copied from HD Mini to PC.

- Publish a "calibration cal.txt" here. Schlund will read and know exactly why your wifi strike.
[HD Mini Android Development] bobdylan1:
Good to know, thanks :D
[HD Mini Android Development] old.splatterhand:
Hopefully the annoying cut screen is gone after schlunds update....:rolleyes:
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
hey guys, sorry for the missing status update;

i have decided to do some test before posting my status with battery driver. but happily the last test isnt over yet, waiting for the battery beeing empty since 50h now!

well, i think the test will take about 10 more hours, but i will post the detailed results then :)
[HD Mini Android Development] zalaros:
Great news my friend :D We are looking forward to this precious update ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] jomaga:
Thanks Schlund, sounds great!

Btw, CM7.2 RC1 is out, It's hard to upgrade your photonic rom from RC0 to RC1? Could it solve our audio routing problems?
[HD Mini Android Development] disciplinedhtc:
That's really interesting, can't wait to test that.. just hope that in your test the phone is not in flight mode only though.. :D
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
true, no and no :)

nothing really interesting has changed, but it will be integrated in next release

BTW:

61h now.. still not empty, and no, the phone is not in flight mode ;)
[HD Mini Android Development] k5570:
schlund, it is good news for everyone, hope you can release new ROM soon.
[HD Mini Android Development] peter08po:
looking forward to hearing from the new release :D
[HD Mini Android Development] milan7171:
hi schlund,thanks for your efforts.

do you upload new release today?
[HD Mini Android Development] disciplinedhtc:
Excellent.. what we all don't dare to ask is if there's reasonable 3G activity involved.. that'd be great for Mini..
[HD Mini Android Development] ci6i:
Schlund, even the battery lasts 48 hours (not 60) on a medium phone usage, imo the most important thing is to report properly the remaining capacity.

If now reports 50% remaining capacity and after 5 min reports 1%, the phone is unusable because it shuts down itself .
[HD Mini Android Development] kowal248:
noob he didnt updated yet his version that he is testing him self atm.
[HD Mini Android Development] iamwindy:
Hey!

so i have a little bug. I can only charge my phone when its NOT in sleep mode, so basically i have to leave my phone always on the menu(because it wont go to sleep after i put it in charge). The other thing, after i have done with my charging, most of the time the LED stays there (greenish-orange-ish). do you guys have some fixes for that? :s
[HD Mini Android Development] disciplinedhtc:
Settings > Applications > Development > Stay Awake: set to enabled

What I am having instead is after any call screen goes blank and phone doesn't respond to any command (power switch or soft keys). In case I receive a new call phone rings/vibrates, screen stays blank, I'm not even able to pick the call up.

Battery has to be removed or phone can suddenly restore after a long time (30m or 1h). I guess it's due to proximity sensors during and in the end of the call, any feedback?
[HD Mini Android Development] ci6i:
You can disable that proximity function. Have you tried this ?

noob it was a suggestion and not a finding
[HD Mini Android Development] xnym:
Hey schlund,

Is it possible the audio routing problem related to BT MAC address? I tried to share my iphone4s 3G connection with my CM7.2 HD mini but failed. (i.e. BT reverse tethering, the bnep0 interface cannot UP and get DHCP allocation).

With some google, ppl suggested that the problem may due to the BT MAC address. The fixes is to give the device a IEEE standard MAC address for HTC at kernel level.

Please Help me.

tks a lot.
[HD Mini Android Development] zalaros:
Hey schlund are you still testing? :D :)
[HD Mini Android Development] disciplinedhtc:
We are all serious about his words, and hope he's waiting for the battery to go to zero before he's going to write again.. :D

Hi Schlund

I´m searching a bit about the audio headset issue, and running a logcat from DDMS, I noticed when I plug or unplug my headset allways there's a line like this:

04-18 22:38:34.063: W/Vold(118): Ignoring unknown switch 'Headset'

Could it be related to it? the system could be still in mono state from the phone speaker?

The full log related to plugging the headset is:

04-18 22:38:34.063: V/HeadsetObserver(183): Headset UEVENT: {SUBSYSTEM=switch, SWITCH_STATE=130, DEVPATH=/devices/virtual/switch/h2w, SEQNUM=2028, ACTION=change, SWITCH_NAME=Headset}

04-18 22:38:34.063: W/Vold(118): Ignoring unknown switch 'Headset'

04-18 22:38:34.063: V/HeadsetObserver(183): Intent.ACTION_HEADSET_PLUG: state: 1 name: Headset mic: 0

Any clue?

Still searching....
[HD Mini Android Development] swissly:
Schlund,

Today I found out something about the bluetooth problem, I don't know if this will be of help. I tried two different devices:

- the first is a bluetooth audio receiver (supports A2DP): I can pair with this, connect to it and music plays well without any problems!

- the second is my car (does not support A2DP): I can pair with it but connecting does not work.

Is there anything I could check on the device which does not even connect?

And then I found another issue with the wired headset. It does work for phonecalls without problems. But when I finish the call music starts playing!?! (music was not playing before). This only happens when using the headset. Is this a bug of CM or something specific on this build?

Thanks
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
I am happy to see others searching for the problem:)

i checked this part of code in android, the function that puts that error message out is only about usb devices, thats why its igoring "Headset" :(
[HD Mini Android Development] schlund:
pairing with cars is always special :)

yes i know bout the headset play problem (is because of the button) but as far as i know derefas has fixed it.
[HD Mini Android Development] vouager:
Also, you needed driverr for TPA2016 Chip

Battery controler/chip/or_what inside photon is the same as in aria... when I jtag-ed my aria with windowsce flash, battery worked perfect like worked in wince in my photon, so I'm 100% sure kernel module from aria with small modifications to rpc_call/smem_address will bring you batery driver like in aria!!! Allso I think for audio allso. Difierence photon/aria is very litle... only diference is aria have compas and oj, aria have small un-aligments on touch screen, aria have diferent butons: home,menu,back,search... only buttons controler not worked in aria when I installed wince, all other worked perfect (wifi, gps, audio, radio, bluetooth...etc)!

[HD Mini Android Development] goldenorb:
battery calculation in aria is done by hardware (amss) and brought to system by rpc, so, if you add that to photon it will work, yes, unfortunately no one was able to write to protected nand without jtag,yet, so we are not able to change it :(

different radio is THE ONE big difference between the devices, if you can write the one from aria to photon munjeni will be right, if not, there is no possibility.

How to go back to WinMobile NAND-BOOT

Download official Stock ROM for your device from HTC Site. Take care of the language and provider brandings! It will only one work for your phone! If you have really no idea which one to take you can contact their support, they will help you!

Start the Utility you have just downloaded

Be sure to have enough battery power, at least 50% !!

Unplug/Plug battery of your phone, press and hold! Volume down then press power button

You should have entered 3-Color Screen now, plug the phone with your computer and start the tool! wait for the progress beeing done.

3.Where long ring mini and then subsequently receive the voice is very quietly and does not increase the volume level.

4.On keyboard letters P L are very difficult to enter it

5.SD card several times and disconnects itself does not load

6.10x reset for week on WIN 1/month

Battery drivers put aside, this version is realy very good.

Despite this fact, did anyone succed to correct the black screen bug when receiving a call ?
[HD Mini Android Development] ci6i:
It was discussed in the past: it's proximity sensor related. But you can disable this sensor from settings: settings > display > inaccurate proximity

Personally i didn't encountered this problem while using cm7.2.
