What to do next?

Ok!

Got it working but just until I see the logo on the top lef corner and this next:

ANDROID initL mtd partition -1,

init: mtd partition 0, "msm)nand"

Initialis eModem

Username=my number@1x.bell.ca, Passwors==2469

error 19

smem_find(14, 16424): wrong size 16424, expected 0/etc/setupmodem.sh

and more...

but then freeze. I do not have touch dual so nothing to write without having a screen keaboard...

Martin ? What to do next?

Thanks in advance

[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
What did you to do make it work? Maybe some others can benefit from whatever you've done.

Also, the username/password issue:

Back when I first started working on the scripts to get the data connection to work on demand, most of my time was spent trying pretty much every username/password combination possible. Sprint's online username, original username, phone number, etc. I would change default.txt, boot into android, try to connect, reboot, and repeat. Over and over and over again. Sometimes it worked with some username/passwords, sometimes not.

Since it wasn't consistent with username/password combos, I figured that the problem was elsewhere. That's when I figured out that adding a few extra sleeps in the dialing process is what works and why we now have a working dial-on-demand data connection.

The username/password you choose doesn't really matter (as long as username isn't blank). As I've said before, username=blah and password=[blank] has worked for many people.

Does cupcake allow custom SIP keyboards? I would love an XT9 one. Not having an easy to use keyboard is the biggest reason I don't use Android right now.

Please read AT LEAST the first page of this thread.

I don't know what your zip file contains and I don't think any of us are going to bother hunting through them to try to figure out what version they are. Use the latest version found on dzo's website (located in the first post).
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samhub1982:
I feel kinda stupid for how I found out how to use it. I must say that this worked on my sprint phone. As he said above just make sure that there is a username in your default.txt. It should look something like this:

set cmdline "ppp.username=yourusername@sprint.com msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax=32000000 pm.sleep_mode=0 board-htcvogue.panel_type=0"

That is what worked for me in terms of Sprint service in the default.txt.

After that and you get it booted up simply open up Togga and click connect. After it connects you should have data service. I don't need to open up IE and get a data connection started prior to running haret. Any other questions feel free to ask. While I don't have a whole lot of experience with this yet I am still willing to try to help. :eek:

One thing I would like to add is that there is no reason to update your radio software if you have Sprint. 3.42.30 is more than sufficient. The reasons you may not want to go after 3.42.50 is because its for Bell phones. Your vendor ID on the phone itself will not allow you to flash that ROM to your phone thus you would have to unlock your phone. That just seems a little dangerous to me for a CDMA phone.

I hope this helps Sprint users who can't get their data to work on Android. If anyone knows any other cool things to add or do with Android please let me know. I am always on the lookout. :)

login to google account and sync/ app marketplace

i have android running well on my vogue, and the data connection is working, but i was wondering (and i did search this thread) if there was currently a way to login to my google account with this version of android so that my google contacts, calendar etc. will sync with my phone. Also is it possible for our phones to access android marketplace? if so how. thanks, and sorry again if this has be answered already.

Hi with this new release I can't connect using tagga fact it won't even start I have to force quite every time I try to open it.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
1) It works for me, open the keyboard, hold down the end call button and tap the corners. Try using Sym 0 to see the printks (sym 6 to go back to the GUI).

2) I'll have a look at this.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] f00bar:
Ah hah that was it. Comment and code are misleading...

if(keys[2].val==0 && keys[1].val==0 && onscreen_keyboard) { // do calibration when cam button and end call buttons are down and kbd displayed

This sounds like open the keyboard, and while continuing to hold cam, hold end call and tap corners. However, for it to work, one should hold just the end call, not the camera button too.

edit: also, zImage in android-19-01-09.zip has same MD5 as 16-01-09.zip.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] johnficca:
not booting

Now when I start up android it never gets past the splash screen. I can get the keyboard to pull up with the cam button but no other buttons will work and will have to do a soft reset. it just sits running the splash animation over and over. is this something new or old ? what should I do.

New Android 19-01-09

Hi,

I had lots of problems installing this version into my phone. First, it didn't want to unzip the data.gz.... it was telling me that it cannot extract it because no file or folder exist. Then, I unzipped it myself called it DATA.IMG and now it logged into the android. But, It freezes with in 5 min from some sort of program that I ran. Like, I can choose any program and try to run it and then run another one and it freezes. I have to do a soft-reset.

Do you know why it is happening?

hello ive been following this for a a few months now checkin in every day for more updates and i have a few questions

ever since i tried booting this version of android on my verizon xv6900 ive had no sound. ive tried messing around with all the sound options and all that and it wont even ring when i get a call. in the startup script when i run android i can see that it says "old radio found, sound disabled" and i cant figure anything out about this

also a new problem has arisen. with the last update (16-01-09) i ran it and was playin around with the sound yet again and asked my girlfriend to call it, she did and i got an error saying that android had encountered a problem and needed to close. and NOW when i start it up i cant do anything, the home screen loads and i get the error and it shuts off

help?

Yep , you are right, just stopped loading Android at all.... That's it. Have the same problem.:confused:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
If you are having a problem with sound, you need to update your radio version. I'm not sure if Verizon has released it's official radio update, but there are leaked version and ways to update your radio using other carrier builds. You must have at least radio version 3.42.30 for Android to work properly for you.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] hoodieninja89:
what is the radio and how do i get the new version of it?

i havent heard anything of it untill now

thanks guys
[Touch CDMA Android Development] miamicanes:
Yes, it's definitely possible to write alternate keyboards for Android. You can even do it using Java. It's not supported by the version of Android shipping with the G1 right now, but it IS supported by Cupcake... and Cupcake is the version that dzo's and f00bar's versions are running.

That said, I'm still mulling over the cupcake SDK trying to figure out how you actually install a new keyboard. I'm probably wrong, but it looks like it might be possible to install & deploy one by building it to an .apk file, copying it to the "Android Apps" subdirectory on the storage card, and watching Android automatically figure out on the next reboot that it's a soft input panel & make it available to use from that point forward. I'm still on chapter 2 of the 2.0 version of the Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development, though (I've been sidetracked for a couple of days).
[Touch CDMA Android Development] miamicanes:
I have a question about rebooting... is hitting the reset button with the stylus the proper way to do it? Or is there an option somewhere I missed to shut down the system cleanly and THEN reboot?

Likewise, are there any scenarios anyone has found yet that are known/believed to be dangerous in the sense of corrupting something in the windows filesystem if HaRET is launched at such a time? Say, with the camera open, or something of that nature?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] craig0r:
That's a perfectly acceptable way to reboot your phone, however you can also power the phone down through Android by holding the Red key until a menu pops up on the screen giving you the option to power down or put the phone in silent mode.

As for your second question, not as far as I know, although there have been reports of SD cards "wearing down" for lack of a better term, and cease to work.

anyone else have this problem?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] d3mon187:
Is anyone else having their data.img corrupting a lot. It seems lately I only get a little more than a days use out of the phone before it screws up and I have to replace it with my backup. Last time it did it I was browsing websites, then went to wake the phone back up and got a flashing logo like it was booting up, then it just restarted the phone. When I boot back into android all my contacts and settings are gone and most programs wont work. Replacing the data.img then fixes everything once again.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] brunes:
Suggestion - Make a wiki ?

Lately this forum is just totally overloaded with people asking Qs for help, and others responding "read the last X pages" or "see post X".

This stems from the fact mainly that is impossible to find anything in this thread anymore. It is way too large. Searching for help yourself by keyword is a fools errand.

As well because of this it is VERY hard to keep up to date with *real news* on active developments, because you have to wade through so much chaff.

Suggestion - why doesn't someone start a project on Google Code, centralize the software downloads (which are also currently all over the place in various links in this thread), set up the wiki, and progress can be kept track of there?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Shidell:
I agree with Brunes, that sounds like a very good idea to help centralize information and keep everything current.

Additionally, is it possible to set up a "sync group" with the current build? Android is running tremendously well on my Sprint HTC Touch, although the inability to sync to my Google contacts is a big hindrance and really prevents me from running Android full time.

Lastly, how can one break into working to help develop the code? I'm an amateur programmer with some knowledge of C# and C++, and I'm curious and dedicated enough to be dangerous, so how can I get my feet wet?

Also--thank you everyone who's contributed so far. This project is really incredible.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] etx:
Check out the Android open source project. They have a MSM7xxx kernel source repo, or check out the base system, or dive into the framework for Java apps. Their is a number of fun parts to work on, it's all up to you!

Has anyone seen tabbed applications (Imeem and Phoneflix in particular) run improperly? The tabs are as tall as the screen so you cannot see the app. I'm trying to figure out what the issue is. Perhaps a new build from git will solve it, I'll try it out tonight.

....But the reason being of course that no one ever used it...dzo didn't move over there and so no one else cared to. It was a good idea, well implemented and a solution, a rather good solution.

i cant update my radio because none of the unlocking programs that i have tried work, ive tried "hard spl mfg" and "vogue unlocker 0.41" and wm6 just says "cannot run because it is not a a valid pocket pc app"

right now my radio is at version 1.60.30

any suggestions as to what i should do?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] d3mon187:
Exactly. The only ones that go over to the wiki or myhtcphone are the ones that read this thread and already know how to fix the problems that people ask again and again on every single page. Those asking the questions read the first post and then jump straight to posting a new post on whatever repeat question or concern they have. So I think unless Dzo starts posting on a new site, or updates the original post with some more info or links to someone else's FAQ, this song and dance won't be changing anytime soon.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jim256:
I have always thought the exact same thing as you. Even back when etiger was constructing those forums, I thought man unless we can get dzo over here..its gonna go real stale real fast. So we decided that I should tell him that it was ready and we would really like him over there and why. I pm'd him hoping for something to save all our sanity with this beast of a thread, but nothing. Good luck guys! :) Things are looking cool for you right now.

For any app developers with a vogue (like me) here is a vogue skin for the emulator.

Unzip it to sdkfolder/tools/lib/images/skins/vogue and you can make it the default emu skin in eclipse from Run->Run Configurations...->Target Tab->Screen Size Drop down. The buttons are in strange places, just like out vogue key maps. Menu and back are next to the volume up and down, and the home button is next to the power button on the top.
