I just found a bug in the suspend code and made a new kernel. Get the latest package (android-16-11-08.zip), only the kernel (zImage) has changed.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piethein:
Many thanks dzo. Do you have a list with things to be fixed? And do you have plans to flash the device and get rid of Windows?

initrd filesystem

dzo,

what filesystem is used in initrd? I need to modify it (particularry modem script, as internet does not work for me), but cannot mount it. I tried ext2, ext3, yaffs2 with no luck...

-------

Upd: all ok, it's a simple cpio archive

a few noob questions...is android fully functional? (internet, email, messaging, youtube) and would you recommend it over m2d style?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] exabrial:
Check out the summary on the first page, the wiki and the read maybe the last 10 posts and I think you'll have you're answer.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
What was the bug?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derekwilkinson:
Yes, it keeps working. It never stops for me...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derekwilkinson:
Windows Mobile settings info.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
1) Are you saying that you can get Android to connect to the internet WITHOUT establishing a connection in Windows Mobile prior to booting into android?

If yes to 1:

2a) Does your phone dial-on-demand (meaning that simply opening the browser or any application that needs the internet forces the phone to dial #777 and initialize a connection if one does not already exist)?

2b) Or do you need to run the setupmodem.sh script to get the connection going?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
The touchscreen driver was hanging sometimes during a suspend because of a bad pointer.

I took my family to a remote beach with no coverage today and as soon as I got back to the city the network came back up without me having to do anything so it does work for me.

I also left a phone without an internet connection switched on for a day and the battery charge didn't change at all. It looks like it's the persistent connection that causes battery drain. I'll look into automatically dropping the connection if it's idle for a certain time, that should help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] etiger13:
except for those of us on Sprint who can't dial a connection it seems. When my connection drops (usually after a day of running Android), it won't reconnect. I run setupmodem.sh and it will only connect to the internal loopback address.

If i run the script with normal rights, username and password don't populate and I get messages about permission issues. If I run as root, I get the username and password with no permission issues. Either way though, the same output is returned. If I am connected and run the script it shows the connection info including the modem. If I am not connected it just shows loopback info.

I tried emailing the output of the terminal but it doesn't attach to the email. Weird.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
For those of us that are on Sprint in the US that's not going to be so good until we can dial on demand.

Will Android still connect to the internet after a phone call or does it drop it like winmo does? I haven't tried. As much as I like the Android os I just can't keep it booted up for long. I've just moved to a big new city and really need my gps to find my way around.

Edit: etiger and I must of been writing at the same time
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
It won't be able to reconnect if it can't even connect in the first place (and just takes over the wince connection). What I suggest doing is tracing the shared memory area while wince is connecting. Start haret using haretconsole over usb (without a wince internet connection), then type:

addlist mmutrace 0xb5100000 0x00100000

wi 20

and then connect to the network in wince

Send me the haretlog file and I'll try to see what is happening (or go though it yourself looking at the ppp packets).

1. I have to have a connection first. If I do this, it works fine.

2a. My device connects to Exchange after a soft reset, and stays connected. (for push email)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ingenue007:
sounds like you are just keeping your connection from going idle which would drop it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derekwilkinson:
Well, it's a solution that seems to work ;)

[Touch CDMA Android Development] Van Aerial:
dzo, any thoughts on creating a port based off of the open source android so people can modify it for the vogue screen resolution or would that be too much trouble at the moment?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I do have an open source system image but without maps its not very functional. Perhaps we should write to Google and see if we can get a binary for the maps framework that will work with the open source code. I can do without gmail and the other google apps but not maps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] exabrial:
Martin, this may be a dumb question, but I've looked all over for an answer. Haretconsole requires an IP connection to the phone before starting Haret on the phone. I have the sprint touch that doesn't have wifi. Is there a method for USB and haretconsole?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] exabrial:
Also, seems initrd images made with OSX won't boot with haret for some reason... bummer :(

(following this method here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2847494&postcount=670)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] exabrial:
And my last post of the night, I promise:

Running setupmodem.sh previously had printed echo blank username and password to the console even if I set the parameters in the default.txt. So I tried hardcoding my username/password in the setupmodem.sh script. I su'd, then the script is now printing out my uname/password and completes successfully. Pings to 65.173.211.241 (sprint.com) gives me a "connect: network is unreachable" error message. So, more problems I guess.

Also, DZO in your latest release, if the system tries to play a sound, it locks whatever application tried to play the sound up.

And thanks a ton man for doing this. WM sucks!

When plugged into the usb, your phone should have an ip of 169.254.2.1 (with rndis under windows and linux, I don't know if osx has rndis drivers).

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daredevil 720:
Hello guys,

I have the XT1572 RetEU version of the phone (Moto X Style). Before messing with the ROM I had taken the official Nougat update (7.0.0 NPHS25.200-15-8) so I have the latest bootloader. I then unlocked the bootloader and flashed TWRP, LineageOS (official), and the MM modem from this post.

Now I want to flash back to the stock Nougat ROM because I don't like the audio quality in LineageOS.

From what I can gather flashing the stock Marshmallow ROM won't work now because I have the Nougat bootloader. I cannot seem to find a stock Nougat ROM for this variant of the phone.

UPDATE:

I stumbled upon the latest official firmware for the XT1572 RetEU variant in this thread. I followed the Yandex link and downloaded the latest firmware named CLARK_RETEU_7.0_NPHS25.200-15-8_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip.

I then followed the exact steps from this thread including the custom logo to mask the "bootloader unlocked" screen from this thread.

Everything works smoothly and the "bootloader unlocked" screen is hidden even though my bootloader is still unlocked.

[LG G Watch] Okteta:
Hi all,

I decided to install Asteroid OS on my LG G Watch, but I can't get ADB to recognize it. When I type "adb devices", It returns a string of question marks for the serial number and states "no permissions" beside it. What should I do to circumvent this? My computer is a Lenovo ThinkPad T420 running Zorin Linux. It's Ubuntu based, so Ubuntu commands usually work.
[LG G Watch] Sgace:
Have you tried to boot in fastboot first?

Reboot watch and at the lg logo swipe top left diagonal to bottom right.

How can I add more languages for this phone?

Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stutunaru:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtkmanjaro:
You need to modify the framework and other system apk in order to add the language which is not easy task because you need knowledge about compile/decompile APK and obviously translate the English to Hebrew.
[Honor 9 Lite  Guides, News, & Discussion] Fredin_:
Google camera is known to be above almost every other camera apps and having it can really make a difference in image processing and picture quality.

I've seen it do wonders in phone which have poor cameras and I'm pretty sure it'll make our H9L even better. There has been ports for other honor devices and I honestly don't know why we don't have one yet.

There are lots of other threads and posts asking for the same thing.

Common devs we need GCam.

Like the title says, which region would work best with US carriers? (AT&T)

I currently have a (C605) version and am wondering if a different region would be better for US. Especially for things like VOLTE and wifi calling.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sphyrna71:
I had the Latin American CL29 and rebranded to the European CL29 (432). My only reason for doing that is earlier releases of updates. I have AT&T and outside of updating I have had no issues with either of those two versions.

However, I do not have a VOLTE option in my network settings, despite having the latest update.

AT&T is your issue not the phone. They don't allow BYOD situations. Had it with several phones from One Plus to Huawei. T-Mobile allows BYOD and I've had no issues with VoLTE and Wifi calling.

Okay, thank you :) I thought I may have had a bad unit or that the tablet was using some trash screen. Thanks again for the response
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] Michaelflat1:
technically, the IPS screen would be better, as it has RGB layout instead of pentile.

But the resolution on both is high enough you probably can't tell the difference anyway.

Quick question, how do you get it to stick after reboot? Mine keeps going back to 627 dpi.
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] gcogger:
I boost mine to 915 (I think!), though I have to bump up the font size if I do that. Having come from a Tab S, that seems closer to a similar use of screen real estate (e.g. in YouTube, it shows 5 videos per row on the home page). Unfortunately, it means the other settings can no longer be accessed, so I need to reboot if I want to change anything :(

I'm surprised that more people aren't complaining about this. I think Huawei have simply taken the interface from the 8.4 version without any changes, so things are just bigger all round but you get no advantage to choosing the 10.8 version :mad:
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] alvinlwh:
Someone had posted just last week that the M5 feels like a large phone and not a tablet, likely due to it not identifying itself as a tablet. This causes annoyance with some apps as they draw as if they are on a phone, which when stretched to a tablet screen not not good. Instead of making use of the extra screen space and resolution, things just becomes hard to use.
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] jeanxx:
I have mine set to 1250 dpi and I love it. So much real-estate, looks clean, higher quality and since its on the Resurrection Remix Rom, the dpi stays at that custom number even after reboot. Some things are hard to tap at times but I use GMD gestures and control the tablet with gestures and tasker
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] jeanxx:
The Resurrection Remix Rom makes things easy to set a better resolution that works well for the bigger screen real-estate ☺
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] jeanxx:

[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] alvinlwh:
A while back, I had tried to root a brand new phone. Found a guide online, but the instructions was wrong. The instructions seem to be created on Word which replaces "-" with a "–". I copied and pasted the instructions, not knowing they are wrong, to root my phone and hard bricked it to the point where it will not charge and therefore cannot be turned on for anything. When I asked for help, I got laughed out of the forums for being "stupid". Never found a fix and I still have that piece of brick to remind myself not to root anything, it is not worth the risk and I may laughed at.
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] jeanxx:
Well DC unlocker has a tool that makes it easy to unlock the bootloader. And their guide is actually very accurately detailed. Its like $4 and the tool does everything for you. Then, after that its just a matter of booting into fastboot mode and flashing the system.img of the rom you want to have on the tablet. Unlike most devices that you flash a zip through a twrp recovery, these are full images already made so with fastboot all you are really doing is copying the image to the partition, booting to the recovery console, performing a factory wipe and booting the image. Because of how this process is done, there is far less risk compared to zip flashing becaise the image is designed to work with the devices hardware. Its almost like flashing the stock image OTAs but as better versions instead.

Cant seem to let me flash stock rom either, or at least not the rom i found :( and any twrp i find is crashing during flash.

i cant boot the phone at all, at seemingly it wont let me flash anything.
