Oh, and the SD card works for me. Strange. Like I said I can't sign into Google services (which is one of the best things about Android!), so for now I'm back to 1.1. 1.5 is looking nicer in general though. Maybe if the regressions can get ironed out, some features that were never fixed in 1.1 can be fixed!...maybe.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
What 1.5 build are you using?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Pandemic187:
The newest one, of course. I always use the newest ones.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] CrashnBrn:
I can't sign into Google as well. Internet works without a hitch though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
Ooh alright. Ill try out some 1.5 by different people and see if I can find a fix for your issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
Regarding getting themes/skins/sounds/etc. installed:

That's what I figured but thought I would ask. Does anybody know this one? The steps on a G1 are:

1.) Rename it to update.zip and place it on your sdcard.

2.) Turn off phone and start in recovery mode. (Home + Power)

3.) Press Alt + S

4.) Press Home + Back once update is complete

but all I can figure out is:

1.) Boot with Haret

2.) ???

3.) Profit

For anyone with issues trying cupcake out, I had them too. 5-22's release gave me dead calls. This works for me very well:

I made a folder, started with 1.5's system.img and initrd.gz, then used 5-22's zImage and then 4-22's data.gz I believe (I copy pasted so many combos...) and ended up with a very fast and stable setup now. I don't know if GPU is enabled since I mix and matched. Would love to know how to test it but it's smoother than previous releases for sure.

My default.txt's cmdline value is:

set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=3 mddi.width=320 mddi.height=428 msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax=32000000 pm.sleep_mode=0 board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1 no_console_suspend"

***

EDIT: alright, this doesn't really warrant a new post but I just checked and saw that "sleep_mode=0" is correct so change that (is fixed above though) and you may not want the resolution I set although it is very nice for me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
Ill test that boot line xD
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] danielbmarshall:
I too have been wrestling with 1.5 and a combination of builds/kernels. Here' what I did:

1. Ensure you have a 1.70.xx.xx Radio from the Ultimate Radio Thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=393182 Make sure your default text has the correct APN settings for your carrier.

2. Get DZO's android-1.1-02-06-09 build from here http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D

3. Start a program that connects to the net in WinMo. I start Opera. Close it and then launch Haret.exe and boot into 1.1.

4. Delete the existing APNs in the Settings->Wireless Controls->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names. Create a new APN with your carriers info. You can find the config here http://www.androidonhtc.com/carrier_network_settings

5. You should now see a 3G icon. Log into your Google account and complete a Sync. Reboot and go into WinMo.

6. Copy your Data.img file to your PC. Grab Okibi's newest 1.5 build android-kaiser-1.5-06052009 from here http://ratedo.com/android/

7. Copy all of Okibi's 1.5 files except data.gz to your SD card. Copy the Data.img from your PC to the SD card.

8. Ensure you have an active internet connection (Step 3). Launch Haret. Connect to the net with Modem. Internet/Google Sync should work fine.

The only problem I'm having seems to be Market will say "Download Unsuccessful" on any App I try to install.

**UPDATE**

Formatted SD card as recommended previously in this thread. Completed steps as listed above. Everything now works normally including Market.

Keep up the great work DZO and Okibi! Hope the above helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
So then I learned that cupcake isn't jail broken..

$ su

su: uid 10027 not allowed to su

I guess I must have missed something here. Guess I'll be sticking with 1.1 for now. Without wifi and no data plan I can't exactly telnet and there's no hard reset to run. Anybody know a way to jailbreak it?

jamdice,

I used 1.1 160509, set up everything then I took 1.5 some newest archive from okibi and works everything except Gmail sync, but I can create account in email app and it is working. I am using Funambol to sync with Gmail. I do not have 3G icon (weird!), but this is probably, because in WinMo I switched it off (I forced WinMo to use only 2G).

Now I am using 1.5 050609 from okibi and it is working fine (except OpenGL, but okibi said that it could be problem of ROM).

I need jail brake and wifi and it will be almost all :)

Battery capacity problem

Colleagues,

I noticed few of us have problem with batteries. I am not the first nor the last who found it, but in my HTC Tytn II I have Samsung battery KAIS 160 with 1350mAh of capacity.

Question: someone posted (maybe okibi?) his default.txt with such a line:

board-kaiser-battery.battery_capacity=1800

Probably he has non-standard battery or his original battery is better.

I found in this thread post of seidler2547 (link) and I think it is a problem some of us.

Regards,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
>board-kaiser-battery.battery_capacity=1800

I think your referring to me or at least I have that too. I only put it because the default.txt from a bundle had it already. I do have the standard battery for ATT Tilt so what was the final say on values then?

** Just as you postedd that, with a full charge and 1.1 installed again, it said your battery is under 15% so charge it now or face impending doom, then it froze and reboot Android on me.. weird timing. Cupcake never treated me that way..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
Nope. That's the standard code for default.txt I noticed this aswell. It doesnt seem to be causing my problems right now so I left it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tdavis75:
I've installed the new version. I still can't get past the part of being able to make phone calls?

I've gone through all the past posts and recommendations. I even posted a log file in an earlier post recommended by someone. I still haven't heard back yet.

Current setup:

Do you have any suggestions or are there any logs you want me to produce?

Specs:

AT&T Tilt

WM 6.1 (Dutty's)

Radio: 1.71.09.01

Thanks,

Tom
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] okibi:
I would try a different ROM. I had nothing but trouble getting android stable on any of dutty's roms. I recommend shifu, but a low of people have success with hyperdragon. I'll post my rom and radio I use to my repo later today.

1800 is overkill and the default since it's the largest battery I have and use. I think for the standard KAIS130 or KAIS160, you want 1400 or 1500 there, respectively. This just helps android report the correct percentage remaining.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] szymonunion:
okibi,

thanks for info. I thought about it and I noticed that for 100% you have to have larger battery (with higher capacity). I changed this setting in default.txt to 1350 and after restart I started to charge it and now it is fully charged. I am going to check it now in WinMo - should be interesting.

What's about root shell in 1.5 ? How to enable it - during boot or in debug mode?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] okibi:
Even though the KAIS130 battery is labeled at 1350 mAh, you actually get closer to 1400, which also allows for a full charge. Same deal with the batteries that are 1450 mAh. Again, I would use 1400 or 1500 for those batteries.

You can enable debug and get the full shell access as root. I can just give the default user su permissions if we want to. (I'm gonna assume you guys do want it).

I probably won't get a chance to work on anything tonight, though.

NOTE: I uploaded the ROM and Radio I use to my repo.

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] szymonunion:
okibi,

how to enable debug? I see in development settings USB debugging, but what's next step?

PS. I changed battery capacity to 1400 mAh.

Regards,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
Yep. I changed mine to 1350. Check on the battery itself and see before you change it, it may vary.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dcordes:
I updated the documenation and builds at http://linuxtogo.org/~lgorris/kaiser-bootkit

Receiving and making calls should still work in android. In order to make gprs work you need to manually edit /etc/init1 in order to tell the modem the correct APN for your provider. baz is working on a way to do this from default.txt

In angstrom you should be able to use gprs using "ppp.sh APN username password"
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Shayne123:
Please forgive me if this is common knowledge. My searches haven't turned up any instructions. How does one 'manually edit /etc/init1'? Inside Android? Or somehow from outside the zImage?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nenadr:
Just to confirm call is working (both ways, to call someone and to receive call) on a TyTN II with HTC WM6.1 ROM ver. 3.28.405.0 WWE and radio 1.65.16.25, 3.28.0.0 SPL, but only if I'm in 3G coverage area, and only if don't disable 3G in WinMobile prior to starting Haret.

Audio is on rear speaker only.

Interesting thing is that if Android was called and caller is the first one who hanged up - I can't make Android to hangup anymore (but the audio stops as soon as other party has hanged)

GPRS is not working for me with zImage and init-.... image from 28.06. so I join other guys with question how to edit necessary files to set-up correct access-point/username/password (and proxy if necessary for network)

You have to rebuild the android image. It is not particularly common knowledge, so here you go ;)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong but:

There seems to be the `correct` driver for wifi already but there is something horribly wrong with it that won't let it work. It can initialize the interface and be assigned a static IP but no worky worky. Cupcake appears to have a more extensive wlan support but we'll see.

GPS is on the back burner I think since many have been able to activate it in WinMo and it will work like data connections when booting from Haret.

Bluetooth. Maybe soon?

Can someone help with what I could be doing wrong or how to track the problem down.

I have tried lots of different ROMs & Radios but I haven't been able to get my phone to boot into Android.

I am currently using HyperDragon III with R 1.65.24.36. I am trying to run the kaiser build from the 22nd. I fully formatted my SDCARD using Fat32 and unzipped the contents of the Android zip file to the root of my SDCARD. I then ran HARET and press the run button. The HaRET boot window shows the progress bar reaching the end but it doesn't boot into the black Linux screen.

I have checked the default.txt and it appears fine.

Any idea where to from here?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
I tried Hyperdragon IV and it was really hit or miss getting Android to boot. I have stuck with AthineOS and I swear by it as the lightest and fastest ROM I've used yet. Of course it's subjective and we all have our preferences but seriously this thing is very well made, light and works booting Android 100% of the time. Barring any issues with my Android files of course. Also, I'm running the ATT Tilt stock radio with no plans to switch.

And because I just read the post right below this one about Dutty's, I'll just mention that they are always said to be the best/wonderful and I don't have experience trying them out however he has discontinued development on them AFAIK so you may want to go with a new ROM that has the latest software versions.

I just noticed that I forgot to include an app in my latest release.

For those of you who have issues with either finding music or pictures on your sdcard with the standard android 1.5 apps, please try the app that I use called nswPlayer. It handles playing music, videos, and showing pictures and works flawlessly for me. Even though my Music player works, I still use this player. Again, I believe the issue is with sqlite but until I get it fixed, this app should let you enjoy android 1.5 a little more.

You'll need to make modifications to the system and boot images, not something you do within android. I'll try to remember to do it for the next release.

@johnw230873,

I don't have the ME version but that doesn't seem to be the issue. Fresh copy from the bundle and it won't mount the SD? You should only use the Kaiser-default file. Which bundle are you running-- date, version 1.1 or 1.5, etc.

I'm using the latest cupcake now and it works just fine--no plan to go back to 1.0 or 1.1 with the new features.

Can someone just confirm for me at least that this is what I type to enable su on cupcake?
