As long as it is 2gb or below it should work. I'm just guessing about the sdhc issue, but signs seem to be pointing to that as being the problem for you guys.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Grondinm:
well then....lets see what happens since mine is a 4gb sdhc...:eek:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] DssTrainer:
Search youtube for some Android demos from the actual Android people. You will see all the stuff you can do with that curtain thing. Think of it like the HTC Cube, but instead of more buttons, its for reading textmessages and viewing things quickly and easily, and it autohides itself when u let go.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] wmvdg123:
I can confirm that the sdhc cards won't work, it has to be less than 2gb. Great job dzo, nice to have persistent changes.

Martin,

Can you please post a method to mount the data.img file so that I may add applications? I am using Ubuntu Studio Hardy. I have searched google and not able to find a program or script.

ps, I was trying fuseiso and its not doing the job

[Touch CDMA Android Development] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
@dzo how can I make a gpe or openmoko image instead of an android image?

I already tried to mount the system.img and replace the entire filesystem with a gpe image from that apache but it still booted android only without the radio. Then I deleted everything from system.img and tried again then it wouldn't boot at all.

Anyone got any ideas???
[Touch CDMA Android Development] unsungboxer:
Thanks! This inevitably leads me to my next question: How do I unmount, or zip those files back up into the data.img file?

I have added a gang of apps. Sorry for my lack of knowledge here.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] l33tlinuxh4x0r:

Do you have a kaiser but forgot to use the nbh editor to specify that you have a kaiser? It looks to me like the NAND is being partitioned in the wrong place or at different points than last time or something like that.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
The problem with the new zImage is that it doesn't load the initrd correctly from haret, I'll look into it. Until I can fix it, the new kernel is nand only.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derringdo:
Nope, I'm on a vogue using haret. Looks like dzo has said this kernel is NAND only for now until he can figure out the issue :(
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lerxst_x:
The only problem I've noticed (other than wifi) is that the system clock seems to run fast, and doesn't seem to want to update from the cell network. Not a big problem, as I have installed ClockSync and just sync to ntp now.

Thanks for all your hard work dzo.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I've fixed wifi on the 2.6.32 kernel. Attached is the new module, put it in /system/lib/modules. You'll also need the very latest kernel. I made some very big changes to the sd driver so this could break other things..
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
Hmmm... the new kernel works for me with latest froyo image.

.

Wifi works without your new wlan, but fails with your new wlan.

I'm using kaiser.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Barogi44:
The new kernel doesn't seem to be sleeping fully... pushing any directional key or the send and end key will turn the screen on my vogue, where the power button should be the only button to do so. I'm also getting worse battery life, most likely due to the sleep issue.

Kernel 2.6.32-tilt-froyo-27-08-10_23.nbh and wlan.ko on Kaiser

Hi dzo,

the combination on my Kaiser with kernel "kaisimg-panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-27-08-10_23.nbh", the new "wlan.ko" and the "system-froyo-26-08-10_12.tar" seems to work well (nand). It is fast and stable and the wifi connection works well.

Market, call and sms works well, too.

Edit: GPS and camera works well, too. I think the new kernel is also faster.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
I managed to get a gps fix without crashing on this new kernel - don't know if I just got lucky.

I accidentally flashed a kernel with ppp nostart set to 1; and I'm without a hex editor or nbh editor so I had to use head -c and tail -c+ along with echo -n to make a new nbh while travelling.

Is there a way to enable ppp if it has been disabled in the boot string?

Oh boy, Wi-Fi working on Polaris with the latests kernel and Froyo :) !

The only drawback is that every key awakes the device.*
[Touch CDMA Android Development] manu33xtro:

And for you SuperJMN, that's the BT for carkit is good too. Just one inconvenient is to disable and enable BT before you want to connect in your car : after it's a dream !! Because I use it a lot of time for my work.

Yes, that is known. Perhaps it just needs a new initrd? But maybe some of the addressing isn't right yet. Stay tuned.

A few questions about the new kernel

Does it leave Android more RAM, or less?

How to fetch and compile the kernel? The wlan module?

Any theories on why it doesn't work from Haret?

I return to the problems with Bluetooth car kits Vw / Audi / Seat / Skoda (Harman / Becker)

After many tests, I saw that the kit car that loses connectivity with the phone and not vice-versa, and that 1 minute after the standby screen.

Rom Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 RLS14 and kernel [polaimg-panel3-240x320-2.6.32-27-8-froyo-10_23.nbh
[Touch CDMA Android Development] VulpesFoxnik:
I just tried out kaisimg-panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-27-08-10_23 with my experimental CyanogenMod6 Port to Kaiser, and I was quite pleased. It would constantly crash any program after a second without a force close in 2.6.32. The only remaining issue seems to be the wifi, with simply states error. It also does this with the latest snapshot of your fresh froyo.

To get wifi working would installing abd and giving the error be helpful?

Otherwise, I was quite impressed with the speed performance I experienced.

Is 2.6.32.9 the kernel build used in the latest Andriod Upstream? As the Upstream Linux is somewhere around 2.6.32.20 which fixes a long standing security hole within linux.

Except for Astro File Manager wich can access it :S Any idea on how to fix this?

Using Vogue on latest DZO's kernel (Odexed)

I will try unodexed as a wild guess!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ckl_88:
Just tried the new voguimg-240x320-2.6.32-froyo-02-09-10_16.nbh and it fixes the time running fast issue. However, there is another more serious issue in that the phone doesn't sleep. I've just fully charged the battery and unplugged it for 14 mins. and did nothing to it (just left it sitting there). I went into spare_parts->Battery History->other usage-> since last unplugged and found the following:

Running: Time spent without sleeping: 14m 36s

Screen on: Time spent with screen on: 40s

Battery Level is at 88% in approx. 15mins.

Also, since the phone is not sleeping properly, pressing any key will turn the screen on.

Thanks DZO for the quick response on the time issue, but I will have to live with that problem for now as battery life is more important at the moment.

I appreciate all the hard work you've done. thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] loserskater:
Have you tried installing a fresh system (wiping data)? I have the latest kernel and installed the latest system and I'm not having any sleep issues. Maybe it's an app?

I deleted all the partitions on my SD card and then inserted it into the Android and it offered to format the SD card. Afterwards I could mount it from the settings/sd-card menu.

Afterwards my FAT partition was type c - before hand it was type b - I don't know if that was what made the difference.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] l1q1d:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] t1mman:

formated the sd card while in a working kernel, updated to latest and woiala!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ckl_88:
Could be an app because I was looking for a good sense clock like fancy widget. So I was installing and de-installing like crazy... that could have been the cause.

Newest kernel report for Polaris

This is a report to let you know what problems are affecting Polaris with the newest kernel (4-Sep-2010).

Originally written by mylostnick:

* I can confirm this is happening to Pola100 with the most recent Fresh Froyo build, too. The most annoying problem is that the user partition gets corrupted and every application causes a FCs. A fresh install is required every now and then :(
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vellowax:
is there any different between vogue 4-9.nbh and vogue_latest.nbh ?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] l1q1d:
No, latest is only symlink used by nbheditor
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vellowax:
Oo, so this is what loserskater mean by the new nbh editor.

Thanks for that quick reply.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
not sure if its kernel related or OS so ill post in both places

looks like the phone is oversleeping again-

blank screen, with green service light flashing like normal.

hit the power button to start doing whatever i choose - nothing happens-

thoughts anyone? thanks in advance

got the backward text thing going on again for a few seconds as well-
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SuperJMN:
With the latest kernel, I have noticed that my touch screen stops responding after some time when using my Polaris. It's not a hardware problem itself, because it works again when I reboot it :S
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
Latest kernel should fix sleep problems, the device was being woken up by all the buttons rather than just the power key and would then refuse to sleep again because it thought it had an unhandled wakeup interrupt. I've also tried to fix the reverse display on resume, it may still happen sometimes but shouldn't when the device is woken from power collapse. All this stuff is only tested on Vogue.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
Is that 4th or 6th September you were using as latest? I notice dzo did an update about an hour before you made that post.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dertester123:
Hey,

is there a way for us to collect information when something goes wrong?

I think about something like dmsg..

Its just an idea, but if there would be a little guide how to generate a report with more of these files... i think it could be helpful?

When there is a problem, 2-3 or more people upload these files and someone experienced can look for the cause??

------

Its just an idea... it looks like most people are reporting erros whats wrong.. but without information for the devs i think...

I dont know how the devs work, just thought more information input could be helpful.

Especially whith other devices than vouge?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SuperJMN:
I was using the one dated September, the 4th. I have just flashed the new kernel and I'm testing right now :) Let me check if some of the problems are fixed. For now, the camera isn't working.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] l1q1d:
Before post this is fixed this is not fixed please read the kernel log!!!!

messages without useful information in kernel thread are like spam....
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
The normal way is to have the DEV kit installed and type:

adb logcat > logfile

and then post the logfile, which consists of the dmesg output.

Sometimes the log refers to another file which can be fetched with "adb pull"

These ADB commands generally work even when the phone UI has hung.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lunigma:
The latest kernel seems to fix the sleep problems, the screen doesn't turn on with non power buttons, thank you.

I am getting reverse display on resume problems now though. I had never seen my display reversed until now. I don't mind it, just thought it might help you to point it out.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kallt_kaffe:

With kernel kaisimg-panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-06-09-10_22.nbh

if I have ppp.nostart=0

then I can get no GPRS data session; surely that is what ppp.nostart=1 should do?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] golfnz34me:
I have a few quick questions regarding the kernel releases:

1. There are 2 .nbh files listed for the Vogue: One is named "voguimg-240x320-2.6.32-froyo-06-09-10_22.nbh", the other is named "latest-vogue.nbh". Are these the same, and if not which one is correct for the Vogue?

2. There is a new initrd file listed, but it is "initrd.lzma" instead of "initrd.gz". Will the system recognize the lzma file, or does it need to be repacked as a gz file?

3. Are the latest kernels suitable for use with Eclair builds, or just Froyo?

Thanks.

Mike
[Touch CDMA Android Development] l1q1d:
1 - same file

2 - new kernel -> need lzma initrd

3 - testd with froyo, not tested with froyo
[Touch CDMA Android Development] golfnz34me:
Thanks for the quick response.

I assume you meant to say "tested with froyo, not tested with eclair"

I guess that make me the one to test with Eclair. I'll let you all know what I find.

New Kernel working good

Running new kernel on SDCard wih Data and System on ext2 partitions

Phone: Vogue CDMA

System: SagaROM RLS4

Here is what I did.

download from dzo kernel page

zImage-2.6.32-froyo-06-09-10_22 rename to zImage

initrd.lmza ** Do not change name

haret-for-kernel-2-6-32.exe rename to haret.exe

download System of your choice

Edit default .txt and change initrd.gz to initrd.lmza

Hope this helps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derringdo:
After playing around with the newest 06-09-10 kernel on a vogue (haret) I've noticed a few odd things:

1. My email account constantly disappears. I setup my work's exchange server and it works for a few hours, and then the information seems to randomly be cleared out.

2. After waking up the phone, the first time I press the back (camera) button it will not register. Subsequent presses of the back button will work, just not that first press after waking up/unlocking

3. If I plug in the charger while I'm doing something with the phone that is cpu intensive, it does not start recognize the charger and start charging. I have to unplug the phone, wait til whatever I started has finished, and then plug in the charger once more. Only then will the phone to recognize that the charger has been plugged in and start charging.

Great work so far, it's been amazing!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] nabicat:
Ditto on the corp email problem, but this started for me with the 04/09 nbh.

Edit: I should note, I also updated the system at the same time, so this is probably not a kernel issue.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
Likewise; I put it down to FC's I get on the email program which seem to be due to badly formatted mime messages, and also due to the odd crash-n-reset which may leave the email database in a bad state.

New kernel

zImage-2.6.32-froyo-08-09-10_17

Programs can't access SDCard

Program install dismounts SDCard also.

Running Vogue CDMA on SDCard Data & System on ext2 partitions.

previous kernel worked fine.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
in these cases is it always exchange or any account under the email app? i've had to setup my exchange account a number of times. i tested and haven't been able to tie the glitch to power off/on or reset. the only thing i discovered was an error that said something like 'unable to upgrade account' in the email app when the account got lost. don't know what that means but hope it helps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BigMango:
And with haret on my kaiser (froyo residing on the SDcard), it freezes on the haret screen as soon as the kernel is loaded. After waiting on the frozen haret screen for 4 or 5 minutes, the kernel then suddenly starts to boot and froyo then runs normally .

Previous kernel (06-09) didn't have this 4-5 minutes freezing.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
My poor memory thinks: only for exchange account
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
For the latest kernels I've changed to using the general purpose timer rather than the debug timer. It works fine for me but it's possible this may cause problems on some devices.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SuperJMN:
I don't know if it's just me, but the last two kernels (today's and yesterday's) made my touch-screen almost unusable. Key presses are processed erratically, sometimes the right position is detected, but even if you make a soft drag over the screen, the coordinates jump like mad, making it impossible to interact with the screen normally.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] richard_s:
Exchange email

I've had the same Exchange issues as reported above. It appeared to me that the account got lost or messed up during background sync while the device was sleeping.

For two days now I've had the account set to not automatically sync email and although it's less convenient I've had no more problems.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
Try re-calibrating the screen while in portrait mode (keyboard closed).

If it doesn't work, does reverting to an earlier kernel fix it? Have you got cruft or fluff around the edge of the screen between the screen and the bezed? (A strip of paper can help hook it out if there is)

Hi again! I went back from flashing Windows Mobile 6.5 to my device and the touchscreen works flawlessly now. So, yes, it seems that it's a problem with the new kernel.

dzo, any chance you could get the kernel to run psgroove(the ps3 jailbreaker)? i see it has been ported to many phones already like the hd2 and droid
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dertester123:
@BoboBrazil

1. Its illegal, or at least most users will use it for illegal purposes. Its not that i cannot understand (chiped 2 ps2 myself yeas ago). But as fas AS I KNOW xda-dev..com is not the site for this

2.I read that there were some patches that you have to download(to be able to play online again, and they will come with the next games as well)so that the jailbreak no longer works... But i only read some news about it nothing inside..

---------

=> Would be nice to go for bugs atm. I think the latest kernel(s) were great and offered me a great performance boost (3d on pola200 and i think 2d boost). But also there are more bugs, like often crashes and needs to be reinstalled due to appcrashes, battery issue, camera works for some as i read and the touchscreen bugs..
