Mine boots up fine now with radio 1.65.21.18 (Official AT&T 6.1 Radio) As you said, the TS is terrible on this one, although its much easier to get the notification 'drawer' (from the top) to come down :p
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
Using radio 1.65.24 radio, and it is still telling me 'network not registered', so not sure how you received a call. I did have to change the MTYPE as specified to allow it to finish booting into Android.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mullins07:
Same Dzo build with touchscreen fixed is attached.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] uplinked:
Boots great, seems to work, I still have no radio (on T-Mobile, using 1.65.24, and no ppp username or password in default.txt), can't comment on ts functionality because I just sat on the phone and busted the screen =/
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ajclai08:
Touch screen works a lot better than it was..I can throw away a widget now:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] bugzy:
dzo is the new update from today for Kaiser? or is there anything for Vogue phone's?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] disturbed4686:
ok, i just updated to the new dzo zimage on the last page with the touchscreen fix, and now i get a kernel panic. the last zimage i used was the original 1.0 with the working touchscreen. Do I need to change anything to get this to boot?

Whats the MTYPE and where do i change this if I need to?

Edit, found it and changed it to 1553, and it seems to be working again now
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
It worked for me because I was using my CDMA android system image (from http://cs-alb-pc3.massey.ac.nz/vogue) which ignores network registration.

You should be able to set up your network in Settings..Call Settings..Network Operators, I haven't tried this though and it depends on the RIL working.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
The update from today should boot on kaiser and vogue, just change the MTYPE to tell it which phone you have - 1553 for kaiser, 1667 for vogue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ajclai08:
it says the settings feature isn't enabled.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] stringbean82:
Tested the latest image and I have network reception, could also make a call but wasnt received on the other phone.

What I also noticed when calling with a different phone towards my kaiser that I just keep in hold waiting for Android to accept the call, no network blockage or unavailable number. so I guess it did a imsi attach towards the Vodafone network then.

On some different places i have read that is a way to align the screen, do somebody has an idea?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] KeizerBAAS:
With the latest zImage, I've got the reception bar up full, though no real networkservice is mentioned, and calls aren't going out. Will try some further...

EDIT: Edited default.txt for the password & username like this, set CMDLINE "ppp.username=internet ppp.password=internet" and first time I tried to dial a number it said "USSD Code running...." with a circle bar going round... after a minute response was "Unknown" and I could continue. Tried second dial and now it showed "Dialing..." but nothing further, now it hangs...

EDIT2:

It seems booting up without entering PIN for simcard also gives full reception bar, but no possibilty to make or receive calls...

Tried booting in 'Airplane mode' and now the service provider is called "Android".

Dialing 0# lets Anroid trying to get contact info from the sim card... nothing happens yet though...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
using the system img and initrd from this build i was able to make a call and receive a call with full audio. i used the zimage from post #1999, radio 1.71.19.01.

i went to settings, call settings, network operators, automatic registration(cant remember the exact name of the option)

to avoid having the screen stuck off you can change it to stay on in the display settings

edit: SMS does not work

edit2: got the data connection working with AT&T. APN settings below.

menu->settings->wireless controls->access point names->(menu button)->new APN

Name: AT&T

APN: wap.cingular

Proxy: leave blank

Port: leave blank

now run toga, hit connect and enjoy! thanks to you all for the continued work on android, huge steps have been made!

Settings and Reboot

Will these settings need to be changed every time we boot up or are the saved somehow?

Its not worth it to me to put them in if they won't stick because I've got to reboot into WM6.1 to really use my phone.

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
the settings stay until you replace your system.img
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
The system.img and initrd you mentioned - which post are you referring to on that one? I have the same version from the RAR file posted a while back.

Also, I'm assuming you meant radio 1.71.09.01, instead of 19.01?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ducamie:
i was almost certain this would work on the Nike and have been waiting for Dzo but im getting 'cannot mount sd' errors in the bootloader.. big wtf since this works on the polaris too.. i dont get it. any ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] silasrye:
Sleep

I am using the post 1999 image, and changed my MTYPE to 1553 and I'm still using the 1.65.24.36 radio

Once my screen goes to sleep, it wont come back and I must reboot.

additionally, only once have i gotten the screen to unlock by hitting the IE key. Most of the time that doesn't work. Furthermore, sometimes the buttons on the front light up, sometimes they don't.

There is nothing different that I can figure out that im doing.

When booting it does say something about not finding the tty and also that the old radio is found and audio is disabled.

Is the 1.71.09.01 now the radio of choice?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
sorry i did mean 1.71.09.01. the system.img and initrd i was refering to are from the link posted by dzo on post 2004. scroll to the bottom and download the latest build. i didnt use the zimage included only the initrd and system.img. the build has a lot more function that the one we were previously using, including having the settings enabled.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mullins07:
Yes, the image Dzo has here http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/android-16-01-09.zip is much better than the one we've been using.

Ensure both system.img and initrd.gz are in the root of the Storage Card, and you must use default-kaiser or rename it to default.txt.

Also, he has fixed the cursor keys and I have compiled it to the attached zImage.

Regarding the radio, I am still on 1.65.24.36, but will try 1.71.09.01 soon.

Regarding the screen locking, I find that the menu key (the key left of IE key) now unlocks the screen all the time for me on this build.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dasilva333:
ok i tried the

files from:

http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/

and the zImage from post 1999 with radio 1.65 and unfortunately it hangs during boot linux

then i tried radio 1.71 and now it hangs during booting at:

failed to mount /system

/bin /sh can't access tty job control turned off

3.0000 [2] [2] [2] [2]

and earlier it says

ext2fs_check_if mount; no such file or directory while determinig whether /dev/block/loop0 is mounted

anyone have an idea what im doing wrong?

update: okay i tried what mullens said to put those files in the root, and i updated to his latest one in the post above me, took me two tries but it booted into android fine now ill try to make a call with the instructions in page 201

update: i was able to make a call but i wasn't able to figure out how to hang upthe keypad and audio and mic worked though so thats good
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
I had some issues with this zImage. Right now the IE button is back the end key locks and unlocks the screen, but now the scroll wheel does not work and the actual menu button is the start menu button.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
Dasilva, I had that too, try to make sure that all your files are in the main part of the SD Card, not in a folder. That at least worked for me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mullins07:
Now that the cursor keys have been fixed, some keys are changed back to their original functions. The keys were temporarily mapped to obscure functions for testing without the cursor keys.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dasilva333:
yup the cursor keys are working, i was able to make and receive a call and hang up the call i can't figure out how to run toga so i can get online, i get server not found web page not avaliable. but i finished configuring the apn
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
One small issue i've noticed with the new mapping, there is no back key, the IE and Mail keys are both mapped to home, not back, at least in my testing.

Edit: also no sound or net on the 1.71.09.01 radio either for me. Using the newest Zimage above this post, and the android-16-01-09 vogue package, But calls work (with no sound)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dasilva333:
i tried to google how to run 'toga' and press connect but i can't figure it out there seems to be no reference of it anywhere im so close i think if i could somehow initiate the connection it would work for me and i could finally test the android browser, on a side note the device seems really good at comming out of suspend its worked everytime, the camera doesn't ask for an SD anymore but it doesn't work either its all black, the music player works and plays the music but no sound comes out, and finally the IM doesn't work either
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
Yes for me the same, toga throws up an error (though below the error i see a "connect" button that i just cant get to... lol) "IM" doesnt do anything either.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
toga is a program in the programs listing. it looks kinda like a target.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
I flashed radio 1.71.09.01 and used the zImage attached to the post quoted above along with the rest of the files from android-16-01-09.zip, and I'm able to make outbound calls with audio and with the other party hearing me fine (albeit only on speakerphone, unless someone else found a way to use the standard handset method).

Any ideas on how to get the data connection working? I'm using T-Mobile US. I tried to add an APN, and I added APN name as internet2.voicestream.com, but I don't know any other settings to put in.

I think the only other things that need work are:

- Better mapping of the keys, or a defined standard

- More tweaking on the touchscreen -- still seems some areas are not quite accurate (top process-bar-thingy, touchscreen keyboard)

- Getting WiFi to work (currently gives an error trying to start WiFi)

- Getting the screen to rotate when sliding out the keyboard?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
Also, as a note, while also googleing TOGA just for the fun of it, I found out that adding a folder called "AndroidApps" on the SD card and putting .APK files in there is a good method to also install apps. (From PPCGeeks.com, Vogue Android Thread)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dasilva333:
can you guys share any APK files you found worth installing that actually work yet? i can't find the target icon or the programs menu or any reference to TOGA in google or in the phone its driving me mad because i simply can't find it or see where it is, i think i could get the internet to work if i could just try it. any help would be apreciated
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
have you googled t-mobile apn settings? you will also have to find out what the dcn is you will need.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] radem205:
Does the battery status also working correctly? And how long does it takes before the battery is empty (power management)?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
Quoted from the Vogue thread.

Link: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=23244

and @Radem, No not as of yet, and I don't know about battery as mine was already half dead when I started messing with android today. Though it is still not dead.

Edit: almost forgot a personal find too, www.andappstore.com lets you download .apk files aswell.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
Tried epc.tmobile.com and internet2.voicestream.com, removed the other APNs listed, and went to Togga and its still failing connection. Is there something else that needs to be there for the APN settings? I searched for the G1's APN settings and all the sites I checked out said to just have epc.tmobile.com as the APN name and reset the phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
i found this:

this was a post about half way down here http://modmygphone.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-4741.html
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
Tried those settings as well, and the browser, SMS messaging, and Togga are still not working... :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
I made the mistake of accidentally mixing the files from the older one posted and the new vogue version of the filesystems and it booted, but was causing a few crashes and apps not to load, by clearing the card and starting over, i am now able to do all the steps to get a data connection, and I have installed about 5 new applications.

Edit: I also believe going from a 4GB to a 2GB card helped a little as well, as the pictures in folders now show up, but it could also have been a bad FS

Edit2: Internet is working, and as such, ive gone a bit crazy with applications ... but it does run great even still :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
thats awesome! which apps have you been messing with?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
Quite a few really,

Accuweather, not fit for QVGA but works,

Opera Mini 4.2, Tried it only once, it ran, but did not want to connect,

Facebook, works well on QVGA too, but seems to really only be the iPhone.facebook.com page.

aBubblePop, a bubble wrap popping thingy,

aTweeter0.6.0, Loads but says I have the incorrect name/pass, could be my own fault though,

SoftwareDirectory-1_2_2, Application downloader,

Sam2, Another application Downloader,

AppInstaller, Will manually install apps on your card.

And thats all (for now)

Oh, and voice and data is working, just like it was in the older 0.8 series, Speakerphone only, but both sides can hear and talk just fine.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MrSmileyJr:
I'd like to preface my request with the fact that I DID read the previous few pages of posts, however:

Can someone please post an exact step by step on how to get a working 1.0 android now that certain milestones have been reached like voice, data & apps working...since it is really hard to follow what is going on and which files are the right ones..

Please include direct links to files..

It should probably be something like this:

1) You need the following radio (1.65 or 1.7..???)

2) zimage from here, system & initrd from here.... place+rename them like this...

3) default.txt should be formatted like this _________

4) to get internet/voice.... add the following info - (please give universal directions so those of us not on ATT or Tmobile, but in the rest of the world can also benefit by putting in apn info we know works... also, is 3g or edge working or just gprs?)

5) add apps by.....

it seems like the new thread is being ignored.... and I think we desperately need a wiki (see my post on the new thread..)

Thanks :-)

i loaded up everything from dzo and mullens. Phone calls work with audio.. but no audio with movies, or songs. Does read all media on sd card with no changes on my part and with my radio. Tried wifi and it doesnt work. Video files seem to play faster than winmo..played some music(without audio) and did some apps at the same time with no crashes.Will it be possible to turn off back light and keypad lights? I notice you can see linux pop up for a split sec after waking the device.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nato2k:
I actually havent been able to download anything, i am able to browse websites but the downloads dont work, i am going to mess with apn settings(maybe i need to enable the proxy). also I have audio through the normal phone setting without speaker when calling and receiving calls.

have you tried SMS? i wasnt able to get it to work.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
If you are using the vogue system.img from my site then it won't connect because it will be dialing the CDMA number.

Probably the only way to get an internet connection is to have a pre-existing one in wince and android will take it over (you may still have to run togga though to start pppd).

SMS also won't work because CDMA uses a different format for messages.

Sometime in the next few days I'll rewrite the ril so it knows about GSM data and SMS.

Really though things won't be usable till the power management is working.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
I am using that system image, and have a very reliable data connection (using those AT&T APN settings and togga) and can make and recieve calls perfectly (even reject them, lol) but you are right with the SMS though.

The following has been added to the Kaiser Android and Linux wiki

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RunAndroidOnKaiser

It is very BASIC instructions on how to get Android running.

There is already a Kaiser wiki and it's not hard to find either.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] bally3:
Why dont you guys get xmoo to add all these links to the first post as we did in the Polaris thread? saves a lot of hassle and somewhere to point noobs to when repetitive questions are asked.

xmoo has already offered to update if someone tells him what the updates are without him reading the whole thread (fair do's).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] bally3:
btw, I posted a heat issue on the Polaris thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3186011&postcount=332

Anyone had this issue on the Kaiser?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Bimboy:
Xmoo got an Xperia, and the last update he made was to edit the first post with "I'VE STOPPED WITH MY KAISER, REASON IS I GOT MY XPERIA X1, DCORDES WILL TAKE OVER THIS THREAD!!!"

An updated wiki is the perfect solution. We would not have to depend on any one person to update, since we all have access. It has been working well for the Raphael/Diamond -> Android project. There's one thing to note, and that is that nothing will stop repetitive questions. No matter the format, we'll get some. However, if the wiki is maintained by us, there will be one answer for all questions. :)

By the way, I believe the default.txt instructions on the wiki are not correct. I had been booting many iterations of builds, and this one just does not work for me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
I have not noticed any heat issues beyond the normal temperature my Tilt gets when the display is on at all times.

By the way, if there is any T-Mobile US user that manages to get their data connection working and/or SMS/MMS, please send me an IM. Otherwise, I'll wait patiently for the previously mentioned update. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] KeizerBAAS:
I've got it working fine with dzo's 16-1 system image and the latest zImage, no heat issues, and I've playing with it all day.

Using the 1.71.09.01 radio and running Hyperdragon III rom.

Making & receiving calls works, audio is over speaker though... SMS indeed isn't functional yet.

Managed to set up the connection by adding the ppp.username=internet ppp.password=internet" in default.txt and connecting with Togga. Browsing and maps work (maps crashes when jumping to street view, My location not working yet.

Missing the "back" button though. The touch screen isn't aligned that well, but the front cursor keys work fine! Calender doesn't work, Email setup for gmail worked fine! The gallery is able to show pictures & movies from the SD card (clip recorded under winmo on my kaiser shows in black & white..). Sync is not working, as is the camera.

Installed some extra apps, not all of them work that well due to the VGA screen not fitting the QVGA screen.

This is great progress, chapeau to all the people getting it this far already!

Hi All,

Many thanks to all you clever folk who have got it this far - i have looked on with envy at the gphone my kasier isnt due to upgrade till august :( so this is really great, I am not a true newbie as have been round playing about for ages as a programmer just not on phones! ....

Keep all the good work up!

I have a t-mobile uk connection does anyone know what the ppp.usrername and password need to be ? i tried internet and internet and get a little g symbol in andriod (which in wince i know means gprs data) but the browser doesnt go anywhere?

All the best

Phil
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] biscuits1978:
Did you try to initiate a connection through Togga? Also, did you set up your APN under Menu > Settings > Wireless > Mobile > APN?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] philfred:
Err, no? I read back through the posts and could see the questions asked about togga e.g what is it and couldn't see what it was? Sorry!

Thanks for the quick reply!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
The internet works really good actually. I am using android right now to read and type this. I have the ppp.username and ppp.password set in the default.txt then I used the APN settings, and connected with togga.. although I do wonder why we need to use togga? Also my front keypad just does not work sometimes. And still with no back key. Which is annoying sometimes. All in all, if all bugs and features are worked out android might be my main OS. :)
