gave it a go and still having "download unsuccessful" error... weird cuz i was able to download from the market the very first time i booted this version, but even if i delete all files and start fresh, its not working anymore... tried multiple times with 8gig shdc and 2gig sd, but nothin...

if any of you guys can download from market, i recommend getting Weatherbug, give you your weather in notification area, just set it to your home town and not gps or network area... nice app :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] longjohn1980:
Hello all, I just wanted to share my past 2 days of experience with build

1.1. First off, its 1000x better than the previous builds IMO, the Market is

great, 90% of the apps (non-Gsensor) have worked for me. Having said all

that, after I download 15+ apps I start getting a LOT of things crashing

at random (ChompSMS, Gmail, Market, Gtalk, ect...), and when I try to

download any new apps it either gets stuck at (Starting Download) or

(Installation Unsuccessful). I've tried restarting but as soon as android

boots the crashing starts before I even get a chance to open anything.

I've tried deleting everything from the storage card and starting

fresh but it does the same thing as if I didn't do anything. The only way

I've been able to get it to run bug free again is to format the storage card

and start over from there. But it all happens again when I download and

install several apps.... Anyone with a similar experience? Thanks a TON to

DZO for getting us this far, it seems to get closer and closer to being a

permanent replacement for WinMo, for me at least :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] longjohn1980:
Deleting the files from the card wont work, you'll have to format your card, not sure if the 8GIG SDHC will work but My 2GIG SD works fine. Format, copy files back to the card in their proper places, (boot Android, skip the Gmail login, go open Togga and connect, go back to gmail and login. At this point Gmail might even crash, cant remember, but its ok... Shut down Android by holding the end key until the popup shows Phone options, Power off. Restart the phone, boot Android, connect with Togga, and try to use Market now). It should work again, but see my last post for my problems.... Hope that gets you back up and happy.....:D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] steve98:
Is anyone else experiencing errors when they try to change the ringtone? As soon as I hit the option to bring up the available ringtones I get an error and have to 'force close' the option. Anyone else getting this or know how to fix? Cheers! Also, I am not seeing my Google Calendar events. When I press 'menu' and choose 'my calendars' I can see my calendar titles, and they are ticked, but the events never come up in the calendar itself.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Ideal2545:
steve,

make sure you dont have your audio muted in WinMo first, i had that problem and it was cause i had left the windows side silent... not sure why that is, but it fixed it for me!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] steve98:
Thanks Ideal but it's not that -- tried it again just to make sure. It plays the default ringtone just fine when a call comes in, it just won't let me change it to a different tone. I am also getting 'force close' errors on Chomp SMS. Might try a complete re-install.

EDIT - tried a fresh install and that solved it. WOW - DZO, *awesome* build! Just awesome... thank you so much!!!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] etx:
A fresh data image fixed your ring tone issue? Mine is doing the same thing with a freshly extracted img from data.gz
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bangout:
i have the same problem with the ringtone wont change. besides that, love it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] longjohn1980:
I guess my poor storage card is wearing down, I cant get android to boot up after the first reset anymore no matter what i do....:mad: I guess the bottom line is, if you want android on your Vogue, keep plenty of SD cards on hand, or switch to T-Mobile :(
[Touch CDMA Android Development] refthemc:
Note: Camera is still buggy. When taking pictures the screen is distorted

Using the 1.1 3/1/09 release...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bangout:
ok got the ringtones working, just had to reinstall everything on more time. still cant get the voice search to work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] rutz:
i have processor MSM7X00 CPU so i cant run it at all ????

anyways @ get it workin
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
I'm having some real issues with the time zones. Now that google calendar is available, I'd really like this to be accurate, but here is the issue...

I am in the central US time zone. If I change Android settings to reflect this, then the time shows 6 hours early. If I then change the time to the correct time for the time zone (ie 6 hours later) everything is kosher, until I reset, even if I go back and choose "Automatic" in the time settings. anyone figure out how to manage the time settings properly so that it consistently reflects the correct time?

FYI: For now my work around is to set my google calendar time zone to be 0:00 GMT (Casablanca :) in order to maintain integrity between the phone and my online calendar.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
I tried replacing my cupcake data file with the one in the latest zip (~2.6 M) but it stalls out on boot, stating something like "cant read data file"

Anyone else?

EDIT: Fresh card worked. Dont think the card was corrupt, so a reformat should work as well.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Also, the keyboard "alt" characters are ALL messed up. my email has an "_"

in it, but I cant find it...what a pain.

EDIT: Maybe this is related to using my original cupcake data.img?

But for all of my little issue, 1.1 is still pretty sweet
[Touch CDMA Android Development] evertec:
Anyone else have a problem with 1.1 where when the phone comes out of standby the screen is all messed up, where 2 sides of the screen are clipped and shows up at the bottom and right side?

SD Data Increase

Hey DZO,

Nice build.... I like that now we have Gmail and Market place and calendar again. I have a question. How do you increase data file size because I ran out really quickly, even before this build with Market place. I need more space. Can you tell me how we can do it?

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Try this for the alignment issue.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mw01am:
I just want to say THANKS! this build brilliant.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nobi125:
i cant boot past the black android logo screen, it just keeps cycling back to it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Anyone get phone fusion voicemail to work? It looks like it needs forwarding to work, and everytime I go to settings>Call forwarding I get a network error. Is this the reason why we cant locate based off of cell network, the network is unknown? I though phone fusion might be the answer to my "no voicemail notification" issue.

btw, I'm on sprint
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derekwilkinson:
It's not going to work. It's a Sprint issue, not a software one.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tetrismonkey:
phone fusion

its not just sprint issues because i am on a Verizon and i have the same problem no call forwarding

"Network or SIM card error"
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jsun21:
I just formatted my SD card and put this build back on, and I must say, it is absolutely amazing. A lot of the market apps work (some a bit slow), but it's opened up so much more for this phone.

Someone already mentioned this, but I also think the size of the image file needs to be increased since applications can now be installed. The Bonzai Blast game takes up 6~7mb alone.

Thanks dzo, for this great build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cyanfrost:
Having a big problem using 1.1, whenever I run haret, the usual linux screen loads a white flashing screen and nothing loads. Any help or am I doing something wrong.

edit: nevermind, just deleted the first files and did a clean install, works fine.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] derekwilkinson:
Edit: Nvm, I was thinking of a different application.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Ideal2545:
hey martin, on your website i noticed a march 1 release, is it different from 2/27?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
does anyone else have this problem with 1.1,

when i go to change the ringtone for messaging it gives me a force close error

and i dont get any notification for txt messages

i have reloaded everything and reformated the SD card and it still is giving me the same error
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Ideal2545:
yes the 3/1/2009 release is different, well all i know is that it says android when it locks instead of a bunch of random numbers, lol
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sci05:
1.1 works awesome on vogue. the only problem i have is the screen calibration. Also, out of curiosity, where does marketplace save those new apps i don't see them anywhere on my SD card.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] conanford:
You can also set your WM6.1 timezone to GMT, and then Android will have the right timezone and time. I think you might have to turn off network update in WM6.1 for this. If someone ever comes out with a ntp client for Android, we can use that instead.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zapat0s:
You can fix the screen calibration there are instructions in this thread.

as for where the marketplace saves that apps. They are most likely stored in data.img.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrhocuspocus:
Anyone else having a problem with how loud the phone is? I can turn down the ringer volume ... but all the media volume is stuck so loud it sounds like my speaker will break.

I did a search for "media volume" and no results found

btw great job everyone who contributed to this project including everyone who donated.

If anyone is getting white screens, or misaligned screen i fixed it by editing the default.txt

board-htcvogue.panel_type i had to set mine to =3 now it works fine.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tErbo b00st:
I love this new update!! So awesome to finally have the marketplace. Everything runs fine...except

after I run a couple programs the phone is REALLY slow. Anyone else have this problem? I end up having to restart after opening a couple programs because the wait time between button pushes goes from 1/2 a sec to 5 sec!

is there any app out there that is an equilizer for the media player? I think that would solve our problem with the headphones, it sounds like it is just lacking the bass and midrange (probably because it would blow the standard speaker)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] japaneezy:
So... I was typing a text and my phone stopped responding, out of nowhere. [android had been working great up until this point] I soft reset back into windows, went to load up haret again and it seemed to load, however that "Go Go GO" never appeared. android came up, but no applications would open. nothing would work anymore...

I figured, meh.. I'll just reinstall. I'm not sure if it's just as simple as removing the files from my card and reformatting, etc? I searched for 'uninstall' as well as 'reinstall' but cannot find what exactly needs to be done to 'uninstall' as it's not a program that appears in the 'remove programs' app.

if it's just as simple as reloading the files onto my card, pls let me know... I just wanted to check so I don't mess anything up.

thanks in advance and grrrreeeat work :cool:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tErbo b00st:
yea it's not "installed" in windows it's just chillin in your memory.

just delete and reload the files
[Touch CDMA Android Development] longjohn1980:
I've had another day to test this build out and after some fustrations I figured out what was happening with the memory card. I realized that i was trying to boot into android with activesync running and it keeps the modem from initalizing during android boot which results in rudundant code displaying on the screen. I am happy to say that I've been running the latest build (1.1-01-03-09) most of yesterday and all night until now with very few problems :D. I'm running the resolution at 320x480 and its very tolerable as far as the blurry issue, i also went into settings, data Synchronization and unchecked (Auto-sync) before I logged into Gmail for the first time and I haven't had any crashes on startup since, I think it may help because of auto-sync starting before you have a chance to connect togga.... It may just be me, maybe someone else can chime in on this...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] harminoff:
So it seems that when I put the device in standby (press end call) and then take it out of standby, the screen placement gets all weird. If I then continue to press end, and turn it back on the postion moves but is never set correctly. I've tried both cupcake and v1.1 with both the same issue. Anyone have any ideas?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] japaneezy:
hahaha, perfect thanks a mil

Software keyboard

Hi guy I've been following this thread for a while and must say a big thanks to everyone that participated to this project especially DZO. I was wondering, with the last build there is no softkeyboard beside the good old one (blue one) Is there a way to have the cupcake keyboard or is there any alternative to the old one. I must say right now I'm using this build on daily use, the only thing getting a bit in the way is the keyboard I have trouble using it.

I hope I am not posting this question a the wrong place since it's the dev. thread.

Anyways thanks again for this great demonstration of open community getting together to build something really impressive.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] steve98:
DZO hopes we may get the keyboard back once the HTC Magic is released as this will have an onscreen keyboard. In the meantime, make sure you download Chomp SMS (replacement text messaging app featuring the iPhone keyboard, works amazingly well) and Steel (replacement web browser with onscreen keyboard) from Marketplace. They get around most keyboard requirements.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] steve98:
I know this is a little off-topic but I just downloaded 'Touchdown' from marketplace -- it's an app that apparently allows you to get calendar, contacts, mail from a MS Exchange server. Unfortunately I can't get it to talk to my MS Exchange serve, just a bunch of errors. Would be interested to know how others get on
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Me too, on both points. I recommend anyone coming over from cupcake to completely reformat (I popped in a fresh card), fixed the smschomp and other random errors.

For size of the image, I have the essentials installed (quote pro, weatherbug, scoreboard, alastfm and npr podcasts) and have yet to get the low memory error with the fresh card like I was my cupcake image. I do agree with getting a larger image, though, as this is pretty much ready for full time use...outside of not being able to calibrate the screen :rolleyes:

I'll keep reading, maybe it's been solved *fingers crossed*

EDIT: Yup, the old method of calibration (cam+long press end, then tap opposing corners) DOES work...must have rebooted and forgot to perform that little nuisance. Any hopes of making that "sticky"?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nobi125:
I can't get the app store to actually download an application. It says to watch for a notification, but nothing ever happens. I'm able to use the browser just fine. Any ideas?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
AWESOME!! Thanks for the tip. Much more effective than mine, which actually didnt work after testing (it was all theory ;) )

To clarify for those having the same issue:

-In winmo go into settings>time and change to casablanca (GMT)

-For winmo 6.1, settings>phone>time sync (or something like that) and toggle off auto sync

-In Android set your real time zone

Voila! Now everytime you reset your time will be correct, which really matters for calendaring and apps like scoreboard and other time stamped data, including email.

Loving the 1.1! Headphone sound quality is still one to look forward to.

Cheers!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Where did you search for media volume, this thread or the Market? Try searching the Market for "Volume Control" It does the job well.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i have the same problem i tried restarting everything and it just comes up with download unsuccessful
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
I had the same error, but a fresh card and install fixed it. I imagine that a reformat would do the same.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
yea i reformated the card and got it to work, for some reason when i had smspopup.apk in my android apps folder it caused it to go all crazy

i dont know if that was the culprit for sure but i reformatted the car once with it and it did the same reformatted it again without and now i get the ringtone like i should
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
Ok I looked back for several pages and haven't seen this mentioned. I cleared my card of all the old files and installed the 1.1 version from DZO's website. I changed the panel to 3 to get rid of the white flicker screen. Now when I go to but up it gives me "android_power: wakeup (0->0) at ***** with a timestamp. What's causing this and how do I get rid of it?

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrhocuspocus:
I just searched this thread. Thanks alot i would have never thought of that.

I wonder how many people are using this as their primary OS? The only really bad things are is all the unimplemented call waiting stuff. That keeps it from daily use imo.

All things considered this port in progress is great, huge advancements since i first tried this 8 months ago.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] radem205:
Do your guys have a working softkeyboard at the moment? Because I don't read anything about the absence of the softkeyboard.

If no, how can you use the phone for daily use if the you haven't a working keyboard yet?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrhocuspocus:
there is a landscape qwerty softkeyboard, id like to see a portrait keyboard.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nobi125:
btw, I really like the landscape keyboard. Is there any way to get the same keyboard in WinMo?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nobi125:
I don't even get the unsucessful message. It just does nothing.

EDIT: I just got the download unsuccessful notification for the first time. It's progress lol. Although now the browser doesn't work, but some other things that didn't work before now work fine.

I'm stumped, these problems are too inconsistent.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bangout:
is anbody else having problems sending or recieving mms? i searched the thread and didnt find anyhting. im using a xv6900
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
a few pages back Dzo said he didnt code it because his carrier doesnt have it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Drumcoded:
Yeah I'll second that, I'm an android convert and as soon as my carrier starts supporting SIM cards I'm buying a dev phone. I have to say though this blue keyboard is just brutal after having used the cupcake one...anyone know if there's any other touch keyboards available from the market or as an apk?

90% Android Main OS

so i have been running the 1.1 android as my main OS for about a 5days now

and i really love how easy it is, it is a lot more finger friendly then wm6.1 and i almost never use the stylus. i have not had any problems with text or phone calls i get all my voice mail, i can down load and app from the market the data works great.

over all i love it and the only time i boot back to windows is when i need to use my camera.

thanks for all the great work DZO and everyone else

can't wait to get more space on my sd card so i can load more apps
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Ideal2545:
yup, been using it as a my main os for the last few days, works great so far. The only thing I am requesting, and its not really because I want it, but mainly a safety feature would be, to do one of the following...

1) Enable speakerphone

2) Enable the plugged in mic to work

3) Enable bluethooth

I remember with an older build I would hit a button and it would accidently turn on the speakerphone, maybe it wont be so hard to get that to work? or to get the mic to work with the plugged headset, since the headset audio works now?

either way, i um, got pulled over for using my phone while driving in Cali... the cop let me go after i showed him how DZO got android working on the phone... and lucky he also had the touch, so now I gotta email him all the info... lol
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nobi125:
Anyone know why issues that come up with Android are so inconsistent? Every time I delete everything and start over, old problems are fixed and new ones are created. One of the weirder issues is that the home button stops working (when it stops working as the home button, it gains the ability to wake the phone up from sleep). Am I doing something wrong?

Excellent work DZO and whoever else is working on this. I can't wait to switch to Android full time.

EDIT: I found this thread through a link at PPCGeeks and wasn't aware that there was a separate thread for getting help. :o
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zapat0s:
Thats funny as hell what an amazing way to talk your self out of a ticket
[Touch CDMA Android Development] harminoff:
wait, so the issue I am having with the screen going crazy after shutting the screen off and on is normal? I'm suppose to "calibrate" the screen? I tried pressing the camera button, and then end, and then the corners but nothing happens. Onscreen keyboard comes on is about it. Am I doing it wrong?

edit:I just did a format/reinstalled cupcake and that works fine. Is it an issue with 1.1? If so, how do I fix it?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BoilingOil:
Thanks to everybody working on making this a full-time replacement for WinMo, especially DZO. I'm runnin 1.1 now and I've only had it crash on me once. Having fun with the market, and checking my gmail on the phone. Browser is nice. At first I was having the ringtone problem, but I had to start with a new data.gz in order to fix it. No problem, I've been using funambol to backup my contacts.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] farquaad:
Hi there, I am a bit novice in a Android and HTC (Okta) Touch related upgrades. Can somebody simply explain how can I upgrade radion on my Okta Touch alias HTC Vogue to version 3.42.50 please? I am connected on NZ Telecom CDMA network.

When I install Android it get frozen every time when I hit hangup button. Thx heaps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
I get that...and it usually causes me to miss calls! I've been running without a reboot for about 3 days, and this error comes up the most.

EDIT: Sorry, I misread, MMS just doesnt work, as explained earlier. What I get is an error that states an error with messaging.mms. Is there any way to have the system ignore these as it is understood that MMS is not supported?

Also, PLEASE someone confirm that I am not the only one who doesnt get a voicemail notification.

Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
I haven't had the screen going crazy, but a few pages earlier there was discussion about modifying the default.txt settings to solve this. I dont think calibrating the screen will help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] suanccd:
I tried the free version from android market. Email, calendar and contacts are working for me, using exchange 2003 mode.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Drumcoded:
Ok so I found a solution for the data problems I was having. I had forgotten to update my roaming list for Telus, it had slipped my mind that I had flashed the ROM with the Telus upgrade stock ROM after I updated the list. Doing this blanks the phone.

For any Telus users wanting to try this dial *22803 enter 1->2. I've noticed a 200% improvement.
