If I were you, I'd switch your lcd.density to 160, your mddi.width to 336, your mddi.height to 448, and your pm.sleep_mode to 0

Sleep mode of 0 is for best power savings.

The Height/Width thing really makes most of the programs run correctly (and so you can actually see them)

For some reason, I also have 'msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax=32000000' which I didn't see in yours.

My set cmdline looks like this, and it has worked really well for me.

set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=0 ppp.apn=wap.cingular ppp.username=WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM ppp.password=CINGULAR1 pm.sleep_mode=0 mddi.width=336 mddi.height=448 lcd.density=160 msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax=32000000 no_console_suspend board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1"

jsachs, I mean that you should try to use Sound Manager app and see if it will allow you to adjust the volume. That would isolate if it's just a settings issue or something more serious. Either way, if it works at least your problem would be solved as it doesn't seem too many have that issue so it must be a specific condition that causes it
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ibanezbass:
enatefox, i noticed something. whenever i compile the wifi into a system image myself i dont have the phone heating up and battery problems. Is that because i'm not using DMA?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] samuel159:
Sound manager unfortunatly does not fix the problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] garringm:
I thought that the pm.sleep_mode should be 1 for best power savings?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jsachs:
The wiki does say pm.sleep_mode = 1 for best power savings, although I will try with 0 and see.

I'm giving this a shot with skola's default.txt, with the exception that I've left lcd.density=128 and am running at the native Kaiser QVGA resolution 240x320 (This is a very pretty resolution for text/ui, also I think it speeds up phone due to lack of scaling required). 320x480 apps dont display properly, but I want my kaiser to be a good "phone" first, and a multimedia device second. The resolution will work itself out when the budget QVGA android devices come out.

Anyway, back to the point... I am still getting the error through the settings and alarms app. Also, using the front panel "-" keys to adjust volume is behaving strangley still (sometimes you get confirmation tone of volume change, sometimes not).

To reproduce "Settings" -> "Sound & Display" -> "Ringer Volume."

Also, "Alarm Clock" -> (Pick an alarm) -> "Ring Tone" -> Browse through and sample each ring tone, will eventually crash.

Maybe starting with a fresh format on the sdcard and downloading the files again will help. I can say I dont have these problems either I have just installed xrom this morning with all the latest basefiles. I run TPC MEGA rom v.11 I think with 1.65.24.36 radio.

Memory card not seen...

Sorry.....1.how can I see my memory card.....or the files inside....it's not working or I don't know how.....2.can I copy my contact if I have them on the phone and not on the sim card.....3.If I want to return to windows mob...how can I do it....pls help me....Thanks a lot...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] garringm:
1: Activesync > Explore > Just look through all that until you find Storage Card. If your card is working it'll be there most likely.

2: You can either import all contacts to SIM and then in android Sync all contacts from SIM or there are several programs people use once you get all them on your phone you can sync with a gmail account then your good to go from then on

3: just reboot It'll come back up in windows

kaiser bundles

ok people are getting confuse about this new releases and the lack of info of it...

mostly bundles are released for vogue and we have to make some changes to boot it in kaiser..

so i made a bundle ready to boot on kaiser

to use just copy the files to root of memory card and run haret.exe

i use the resolution 336x448 instead of the default 320x428 because its more clear... till now i had no problems with that resolution.. but if anyone wants change it in startup.txt

hope this helps some people with problems booting last releases :)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Rhys'Droid:
I have actually had really good luck with Ion builds and a resolution of 360x480. Keeps the aspect ratio correct for the Kaiser's screen (4:3) and is big enough that applications that were built for 320x480 don't get truncated. I have no problems reading the text (of course it isn't super sharp, thats what happens..) Only place I needed to increase the text size to make it readable was in the Terminal. Of course that resolution still doesn't work with Hero...:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] garringm:
You might try Better Terminal from the market I really like it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Rhys'Droid:
Actually, I do now have Better Terminal. It is quite a lot better. I still have the font bumped up to 12pt to increase readability, but it is head and shoulders above the Google supplied Terminal.

Also, I LOVE the newest xRom. its great! Just wish I knew how to resize the clock widget...anyone?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ajclai08:
yeah thats why i'm sticking with 240x320 lcd.density=128.. even if there needs more qvga support for android..the apps that scale and have scrolling are more than enough to get me by for now. Video playback is also much better in qvga, the video player and youtube videos.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Rhys'Droid:
meh...I haven't watched a video yet... I use it for email/messaging/music/internet...but not video...haven't seen much of a point...now if someday I could watch Hulu on it...or even better Netflix...that would change... But by then I will probably have a "real" android device.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ajclai08:
Well is the next month or two soon enough.. wen theres a official android phone that has our screen? What about touch? Dont you want to use your fingers with the interface instead of stylus..the touch keyboard is much better in qvga.

Considering android phones have simular hardware to our phones...even ones not made by HTC. We have the closest thing to a "Android phone" you can get without actually getting a android phone, Though we have 2 OS's to choose from...try booting another phone OS on an android phone (if u ever needed to) the only android api we can't fill on our kaiser is the accelerometer..everything else is just minor upgrades or the same. The ram shouldnt be a big issue for us since we boot from a SD card anyways.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] david_peterman:
can't run...just freezes

I went to the troubleshooting page on androidonhtc.com and did everything it said. I downloaded a new ROM (dutty's diamond) and both radio's it said to (1.65.24.xx and 1.71.xx.xx) but no matter what, when I run Haret.exe it freezes at 100%. Please help, I only bought my Tilt back to put Android on it...I'll be pissed if I can't get it to work.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] antiflag1980:
Yeah, try setting "set FBDURINGBOOT 1" in default.txt, I swear, it only works for me like that and make sure your mtype is 1553.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] 2girls1cup:
don't use the default.txt in the package. You need to use the default.txt for kaiser. it should be like this:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Rhys'Droid:
Don't get me wrong, I am quite happy everytime a new feature starts working on our phones, video playback just isn't one of those that i'm jonesing for. I probably won't be upgrading to a "real" android phone until I can get one with ~3.5" VGA screen, hardware qwerty, and Snapdragon (or even better, a Cortex A9 ARM based chip). I actually almost never use the stylus with Android. Touch actually seems to work just fine...

Strange problem

Hi

I have a clean install done of the latesurt build. all expected thigns are working fine. However, I am unable to access the market or logon to google services. I am able to get Wifi, access web, but cant get to login to Market. In the older builds this wasnt the issue.

Youtube connects and I can listen to the music, but the video just doesnt display. It displays the image that it first gets of the video and show that all through the video while music is plays normal

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I had somewhat the same problem. Mine froze the first time after installation, then I did a soft reset. When I tried it the second time it did the exact same thing except I let it sit for a minute or two and then the button lights came on and then android started.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] poly_poly-man:
man, it's been a while... I remember posting 500 pages ago!

so, first of all, can I use a 6.5 rom? I needed to get off of the rom I was on (tons of strange issues developing), so I updated... wondering if there was something else to use.

Also, what appears to be the recommended zip file (preconfigured for kaiser, on 4shared) seems to be inaccessible at this time - someone mind mirroring it on another site?

ok... just managed to download it this morning.

I modified the startup.txt based on my old default.txt (good to see my old atttilt option is there - even though the code is completely changed underneath :P )

Whatever I did, it seems to like to spit out the usage for something like "usersetup.sh" (hard to read on the weird resolution screen), then it hangs for a few minutes at the "A N D R O I D" (with a few kernel messages after that), but it does continue to the gui. Wondering if I may have set up something wrong there.

Also, it seems that my screen is extraordinarily distorted (random extra junk pixels all over the place, basically looks a little like the time my screen ribbon cable came loose.

And, it doesn't rotate back to normal?

I'm going to try a "normal" resolution (320x240), and get back to how well it works.

EDIT: alright, even with the width and height set to 240 and 320, it still has problems. Basically, imagine what your screen would look like if you overclocked your video card too far and it started corrupting the video ram. Some weird rainbowy pixels, nothing looks right, etc. Used density=128, btw.

It also rotates back to the opposite landscape, instead of back to portrait. hitting the power button puts it into sleep, then once more (well, you kinda have to hold it, because it doesn't like to work quite a bit) brings back just a clock and the notifications bar (no menu or desktop icons).

I can't seem to get the data connection to work, but I haven't worked very hard at that.

What am I doing wrong? Android should have gotten *better* in 8 months, not worse...

Startup.txt:

set RAMSIZE 0x07000000
set RAMADDR 0x10000000
set FBDURINGBOOT 0
set MTYPE 1553
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz

boot

oh yeah, and I used to be htcvogue panel type 3 (even though my panel is a toppoly, it worked better like that)... does that have to change?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ruizit0:
hum i like the 336x448 resolution.. its smooth and fast.. and its more clear than the default 320x240..

and you get more desktop space for widgets :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] 2girls1cup:
dude you need to read thoroughly throughout the thread. For correct screen rotation, uncheck orientation. For your pixels problem, adjust panel display 1,2,3, or 4. just make sure you have the correct package files and startup for kaiser as follows:

set RAMSIZE 0x07000000

set RAMADDR 0x10000000

set FBDURINGBOOT 0

set MTYPE 1553

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=3 ppp.nostart=1 pm.sleep_mode=1 mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480 lcd.density=160 no_console_suspend board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1"

boot

Data should work if you have the right carrier settings. you have to go to wireless settings under -menu--settings, and input your settings. sometimes it even detects the settings automatically.

i use board-htckaiser.panel_type=0, and never had pixel problems. It also looks the best in 240x320, lcd.density=128 in my opinion. The image is clear and sharp, when u hold down a widget it gets blurry. You can't see that in any other res because everything is blurry.

Is anyone having problems charging on Kaiser? I'm was using the latest basefiles and system-xrom1.4r3.sqsh so I switched to the Google-Ion-2009-09-12 bundle both from vogue-android on google code with fresh data.img, same problem. Charging will work for the first few hours and then without any changes, it will stop. It will charge for like 30 seconds and stop charging and the battery icon will go back to normal and in "battery status" it shows "not charging". A regular soft reboot will not fix this for some reason. Charges just fine in windows mobile, but to use android I have to reboot and charge in wm6 and when fully charged switch back to android. Anyone experienced this?

My Kaiser/ION issues, just in-case anyone wants to know.

1. Battery life is iffy. One day it will last all day other days only a few hours. Remember to power up and standby phone when coming off the charger. Sometimes the display doesn't turn off completely.

2. MMS out-going doesn't work. Works great in-coming.

3. Camera doesn't work.

4. Speaker phone doesn't work. When I hit the button it doesn't change to the loud speaker.

5. Phone locks up if the display is slide open and you slide it closed before answering the phone. If slide closed after accepting the phone call it functions fine. It doesn't fully lock up. The display becomes locked but the call time keeps on counting but you can't hear them and they can't hear you. Weird one.

6. Graphics freeze at a white screen until you hit the standby button twice if you try to bring it out of standby as it's going into it. Another funny one, but not a major issue at all.

Build is fast. Faster than Hero. One great speed increase was to buy a new memory card. Just upgraded from my stock 512mb Transflash to a SuperTalent HC 2gb. Boot time from WM 6.1 to Android ION is less than 20 seconds, faster than WM 6.1.

Overall, ION is a great build and I can't wait for all the major bugs to get knocked out. Especially the power management issue. That's the only one I'd like done. The rest I can live without.

Data problem

Hi there,

If you're using Kaiser and your data connection doesn't work, reset all connection-related WM settings (KaiserTweak) to default.

Also, interesting bug noticed in ION build:

- when low battery, radio freeze and you're unable to receive calls/SMS, but data works (plug-in to power and reset radio via modem app)

- does gmail push work for you?
