For me, A2DP works until I go to Settings->Wireless and turn off bluetooth. When it's turned back on, A2DP is broken until a reboot.

Also, I see the following bug: turn off headset, wait until the screen turns off on the phone. Wake up the phone, turn on headset. It will not reconnect *until* you either go to Settings->Wireless and connect manually OR type hciconfig -a from the terminal. Basically, you need to gently poke the bluetooth stack to wake it up :) Hopefully someone can figure out a way to do this automatically when the phone returns from sleep.

Double-checked; running same zImage (04/06), Myn's warm donut RL4

EDIT: I did some more poking around in the debugger. When A2DP breaks (after toggling BT off and on), hcitool still reports a connection, l2ping allows to ping the BT headset, but it doesn't look like audio data is actually going through (TX/RX byte counts are incrementing slowly, but hcidump -XVt returns absolutely no output). Playback on the device appears accelerated -- perhaps the BT driver thinks it's receiving AVRCP signals?.. Not sure how to debug this further, especially since toggling BT kills hcidump (although I have a dump of a broken session but it starts after BT is turned on, and I don't really know what to look for).

In any case, once BT wakes up when the phone does w/o further manipulations, it will be good enough for me since I don't usually turn it off, and I am guessing that should be easy enough to fix.

Ive noticed 2 things about Bluetooth:

1 works better if you turn on your by device first then on your phone second

2 use your phone to connect - don't try to use the device to initiate

Bug found?

Hello Dzo,

I think I have found a bug in the latest voguimg-240x320-08-04-10.nbh. Whenever I use Shazam to id a song, it reboots the phone. I have moved back to voguimg-240x320-31-03-10.nbh and the problem is not there.

Thanks for all your time and effort improving android for the vogue!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
OK so past few days, I think I've isolated the issue I was experiencing with BT Audio.

1. If I leave the bluetooth service turned on while dormant, and try to reconnect, BT audio often gets messed up (plays fast but no audio comes out).

2. If I turn off the BT service when not in use, it has worked every single time so far. I will continue to try this way, hopefully it works and no more issues :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
Strange, I just tried Shazam and it worked fine. Does it always reboot? Does it do it with all audio input or just Shazam. Can you post a /proc/last_kmsg please.

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] margosmark:
Shazam crashes for me too here is the last_kmsg

EDIT: Sorry turns out it was too big as a txt file, just rename the zip to .txt or just open it in a text editor
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ckl_88:
Ok. I just reflashed the 8-apr nbh just now and right after boot up went into Shazam and try to Tag Now even though there was no song. Rebooted right away.

The only other app that I can think of that's installed and accepts audio input is the google search bar voice input mode. I tried that and the "Speak Now" popup came up and spoke some words. I could see that the microphone icon was filling up indicating that it was picking up my voice. It then was able to recognize my words and did a search.

Here is the log from /proc/last_kmesg after shazam caused my phone to reboot.

Hope it helps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
just wanted to check in.

I know this was discussed previously.

my vogue rebooted once while in airplane mode today. after restarting I had no reboot issues. this may be some anomaly.

don't have a computer with me so the logcat isn't available .
[Touch CDMA Android Development] inertone:
ive had issues where my vogue wont wake up and the LED wont light up

So the phone is pretty much turned off

Only way to resolve it is to pull the batterry

ive had it happen to me about 5 or 6 times

Anyone else having this issue?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrono:
Happens to me sometimes, less lately though.

Last night and this morning my phone rang, no sound ringer just the buzz, screen wouldn't turn on nor would it stop buzzing till i hit reset button and rebooted it. Woke up to 3 different calls doing the exact same thing, though since i got up and actually pulled the battery to reset it I haven't experienced the problem. Just an FYI

[IDEA] One nbh for each device

I was going to post a new thread about it, but I figured I ask in here first...

I was wondering if it were possible to alter things like panel type, keypad, hw3d version, resolution, density, etc. on the fly, preferably during install menu. This way there is only one nbh for each device.

Basically, here's my idea in a nut shell...

1. You flash a new nbh

2. Device knows this is first boot so automatically brings up menu

3. You can set the info above and begin upgrading system or continue with bootup

4. Every time you reboot you can bring up the menu and change whatever you need.

It's more of an extension to the current "menu" system we have now.

Are those things able to be changed or is this just something I can only dream about?

If they are, a tip on where to start would be nice and I'll see what I can come up with.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] dnquark:
Bizarre, this is exactly the opposite of works for me -- if I leave BT on, it (mostly works), but completely breaks if I turn it off.

EXT2 vs. EXT3 Partitions ?

I am currently running Myn's build on SD Card using 2 EXT2 partitions.

EXT2 vs. EXT3 Partitions:

Up to now, all instructions I've read (thank you to all that took the time to document) have specified that we use EXT2 partitions. I came across this article...

http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/

Step-7 recommends that you :

"upgrade your ext2 file system to ext3. For most users this is the final step. We suggest all users upgrade to ext3. Its main advantage over ext2 is journaling which improves reliability and eliminates the need to check the file system after an unclean shutdown.

My question:

Should I consider using EXT3 partitions instead? It appears to be a better file system especially since we get the occasional "unclean shutdown" (also know as an unplanned reboot).

Any thoughts on this?

Thank you!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Our kernel doesn't support ext3,
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JM-PDA:

Got it.

Thank you for the clarification.

I will stay with EXT2.

It has not been a problem using EXT2. Just wanted to make sure I understood all of the options.

My guess is that you are using the nbh file from 4/4/10. If you reflash to the 3/31/10 file it should work fine. I had the same problem when using the newer kernel. I've attached the links for the one that should fix your problem.

Would this be related to the kernel panics we are getting when reading /dev/smd7 (GPS on Kaiser) from Kernel space?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
No, not at all. It enables the ARM9 log on kaiser. Do "mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug" to see it.

Looks like your crashes have something to do with the wakelock that the gps driver takes, when I have some time I'll have a look at it.

I've been trying to fix the camera and audio problems some people are having on vogue. I think it's caused by some irq changes I made but my phone doesn't seem to be affected. Can somebody try the kernel I just put on my site, it works for me but.....
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Oh, well... At least I've managed to make it happen less often. By adding a delay to the loop and reading /dev/smd7 less often but more data at each time it seems to be less likely to happen.

I'll mail you my changed files. At least I don't think I've made anything worse.

Some questions. As I understand the buffer for /dev/smd7 is 8192 bytes so I've actually allow reading up to 8192 bytes now. That also means I allocate 8kb for the "buf" variable. Is that a bad thing? I don't think 8kb is ever needed. In fact I could try to gather some statistics on what's the maximum it gets but is it worth bothering to try to keep it smaller?

Also what I've made it "static char" instead of just "char". I'm not sure it matters. I just did that change to try if it made any difference, but it didn't help, but I left it like that. Would it be better to change it back or should I keep it like that.

Works for me. I had the crashing problem with the camera in Myn's latest build, but it did not crash every time (it worked properly sometimes). Now it hasn't restarted for me using the 4-27. By the way, it's only 4-26 here so quit time traveling to release your kernels!

Still getting reboot on camera app with voguimg-240x320-27-04-10.nbh. (Camcorder app does the same). Using Myn's RLS 5. Any other information I can provide to help?

Updated first via bootloader and VOGUIMG.nbh (bootloader) and second time via RUU_signed.nbh (in bootloader mode) using the update utility. Results still the same. Should I be doing something else? Is there a Kernel version that I can verify against to see if I've got the latest? Everything else seems to work nicely.

Posting in this thread after several recommendations... I made a new thread for the issue with lots of details here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=668928

Audio seems to stop when 3G network is disabled, however any players continue counting the seconds like it's playing and DDMS shows the audio as being played.

I noticed the issue again today when I was listening to music and received a call. After the call, the music was 'playing' but I couldn't here anything. I was in my car so couldn't hook to ddms to to see if it was showing the audio stream. However, this time, unlike when network is turned off while playing music, I couldn't stop/pause and start the music over, I tried killing the music app, starting another, etc and never get audio back (despite them showing it playing). I had to reboot my phone.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
This camera crash is pissing me off, I can't reproduce it at all. Can you try one of the NBHs I just posted on my site(voguimg-xxx-27-04-10-test.nbh). This includes lots of debugging info but is otherwise the same as 27-04-10. If it crashes can you post /proc/last_kmsg after the reboot.

Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SuperJMN:
DZO, I see that you are having troubles getting the camera to work. I don't wanto to bother you with this, but... could you please take a look at our Polaris devices in order to get a NBH with full support for wifi and bluetooth? Also, the audio input is still faulty. I'm using Myn's latest realease (Five).

I hope you fix the camera problem really soon and that you could compile a new NBH with all the new fixes (since 20-Feb-2010 wifi it's not working anymore and we have to use a patched zImage+updates to boot Android, but only with HaRET, not NAND).

A big bunch of thanks!

what official rom?

Sprint still has not 'officially' released their new WM6.1 ROM, although someone else has. I'm running it too, and data works for me.

Also, I predict that customized initrd-android images are going to be the next big thing around here. I had some issues using coLinux to generate the initrd, mainly due to the windows filesystem I believe. You still need a true Linux box to customize the initrd, but it does work great.

Dzo, is this Android port up to date with the demos? They look much different these days on youtube.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] d1rtyd33z:
data and packages

Yes, but I have not configured the username in default.txt, so that may be an issue as well. Data works if you 'prime' it before booting Android. On a side note, I've been playing with the files quite a bit and got Martin's patches to apply to the newest kernel in the Android git archive and created a new initrd based on the latest emulator images.

I had to remove some 'cruft' caused by imaging the emulator as it was running, and I just kinda guessed what to remove. I pulled out some sound files in the /system/usr/srec directory, which were taking up like 8megs. Android still seems fine, anyone know if these were part of a Voice Recording function?

-D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] unsungboxer:
Martin,

I have been trying out a few apps, and there are some indications that lead me to believe it would be better to swap the functions of the Volume Up/Down Key, and the D-Pad Left/Right Key.

For example, if you use the Global Time App, the Volume Key tilts left/right, while the Dpad tilts up/down. I have also noticed this in most of the games I have downloaded and tested

Do you know how I can fix this?

Hi,

I've put a new zImage and initrd-android on the site, there's no big changes here but the sms app works a bit better. I made the notification icon 1 pixel wide so you can have about 6 active notifications before the runtime crashes. Networking should be a bit smoother, I found a problem with the interrupt code that meant the data channel wasn't always being notified by the modem. I have almost got the SD driver working, it goes for a while and then crashes, I'll enable it when it's usable. I've also updated the kernel to the latest android-msm-2.6.25.

Enjoy

I reinstalled the test nbh and it crashed, reinstalled again thinking I may have put the non-test version and this time the camera shut the phone off (powered down, not rebooted). No last_kmsg file in proc, just a kmsg with 0kb. Tried camera again and its working. Thought it may be related to usb being plugged in, but seems to be working again on nbh test version now whether or not the usb was connected.

I waited some time and started the camera (using test nbh) and the phone rebooted. Looks like its just a random reboot that's related to camera app. the last_kmsg is below:
