Is 3G/HSDPA working in 1.5 cause all I'm seeing is a G and before in 1.1 at least I got an E and 3G in town

Correction: I am on 3G bc I'm getting 1.2mbps on speedtest but why are the icons not changing?

Two Questions (exiting & contrast / font size)

Hello All,

I am writing to ask how to exit a program so its closed, when I press the brower button on front of phone its brings up app switcher and it still shows app thats I through was closed there for it starts to make the phone run slow, so how do I close these?

My other question is how can I change the colors of the status bar / text / etc to be colors I would like, also how can I change the text size in messaging? I am legally blind and I love this OS so fare I know others that would use it also if like me can change this stuff??

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Christopher

There is a "Close All" program available from the Android Marketplace that I have found to be the perfect solution. Although you cannot pick and choose which program you would like to close, you should see a difference in performance once all background items are stopped.

Managed to get 1.5 up and running on my HTC TyTn II (Orange UK), itdoesn't recognise my radio for calls or internet. How can I find out the radio version?

It worked on 1.1 for me.

Thanks for all the work on this by the way - looks sweet.

Chris, these are questions better asked in the G1 or other Android forum. Here we're mainly trying to get the linux kernel run and recognize the hardware. Most people here are not Android experts.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] anubius:
Confused

Hi all! I wanted to ask two things. I am really confused with Android versions. All the posted versions of Kaiser Builds on Android HTC site are indicated as version 1.1. Some people mention that they have been testing 1.5 version. I wanted to ask where can I can get 1.5 to try. And second question is about the time. I always have wrong time when running Android. And there is no way to change location since this option is not available in the version I am running and I think that is the main reason for not having correct time. If someone knows how to fix it please let me know. Thanks.

Running Android 1.1 (latest release) 5.04.2009 on Kais100 with ATT

Occassionally I find that my phone has turned off, all by itself.

Obviously this is a big problem. Here I think Im not getting phone calls, and my phone is actually off.

Is anyone else having this issue? Any known solutions that I may be missing?

I've searched, but can not find a reference to this happening to anyone else recently.

I have had the same problem recently, my phone will randomly shut off. i dont think it is related to the battery, once I had 99% another 55%
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MooNWalker:
cupcake 1.5

Got the 1.5 up and running. Writing from phone. Preliminary test show that phone connects to inet only if started with usb plugged in. Same with PM - if phone started w/o usb it doesn't wake up. Automatic connect doesn't work at all, but there is no problems with "modem" app, in fact it works much faster than Togga. Virtualy every app that didn't scale properly to QVGA in 1.1 now scales just fine. I'm loving it, pure awesomeness! Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mburris:
So I too have updated to 1.5 and things seem good so far.

Since upgrading my phone has yet to shutdown on its own.

Setup: using android.zip from martin's site, which contains the android 1.5 system image.

I'm using my existing data file from android 1.1, and the default.txt file for att tilt posted earlier, customized with sleep mode set to 0.

Since I had already setup my gmail sync when using 1.1 it all worked in 1.5 even the market.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ritdaw:
Got this working by doing an upgrade from 1.1. I am LOVING this Android OS.

The random shutting off is going to cost me one day... This morning my alarm didn't go off because the phone shut down.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mburris:
You are lucky it happened on the weekend.

At least nowyou know that you need a second alarm clock.

Also if you are like me, and use the phone to get calls from clients, start checking every 15 minutes during the day to make sure its still on.

Either that or try 1.5
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
The same thing happened to me yesterday and I found the reason, It's trying to install an update from google. If you look in /cache on the sdcard there is a command to reboot the machine and install a new bootloader, obviously this is not a good idea and my kernel just shut down the device. I'll try to find a simple fix.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Toobig:
Yeah I had a similar problem myself, other than the updating issue. Found out that it was due to WeatherBug application, eating up all the battery till it reset back to winmo.

Just uninstalled it and it never reset on me again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mburris:
Thanks Martin.

Do you plan to migrate to ver 1.5?

And am I correct in my thinking that 1.5 has no gpu spport yet?

Hey wouldn't it be cool if we had wifi so we could wifi tether? (Nudge nudge)

Thx again for all your hard work
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
I've put a kernel on my site that returns from the reboot call for an update. Hopefully this should stop the power off problems. It also has some other changes, most important is that only the power button should wake it up (though actually the other buttons will cause a wakeup if pressed repeatedly).

I'm not playing with 1.5 at the moment, I just don't have the time right now. The GPU does work with 1.5 if you put /system/lib/libhgl.so in the image. Yes wifi would be nice and I have enabled communication with the hardware, someone just has to figure out how to set it up correctly.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] okibi:
I've uploaded an upgrade pack to my site. If you are using android 1.1 and want to upgrade to 1.5, simply download the pack and overwrite your files.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ibanezbass:
Do you mean the driver? Android is a form of linux, and windows mobile is a windows architecture more or less correct? So why can't we build the driver off of the windows mobile driver? I mean it would take some modifying and engineering such as with windows -> linux drivers. Is that not possible?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] procupine14:
Nice new upgrade I just ran it. I only ran into one problem with 1.5. When I click and hold icons to move them around the screen the phone (where normally it would be a short vibrate notification) starts to vibrate constantly until eventually it either locks up or I put the phone to sleep and wake it up again via the power button. This hasn't happened in 1.1 for me ever so I'm thinking its an interesting new development?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
The latest kernel should fix this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Cryonic90:
I've got the same problem, changing the volume to vibrate, the phone keeps on vibrating until I put the phone to sleep, even with the latest kernel :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dzo:
Even with the kernel dated "11-May-2009 19:44" ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] procupine14:
Haven't tried that one...I'll have to jump back on the site once I get home from work today.

One further thing...The label on the kernel you are talking about is labeled 1.1 now that I'm looking at it....is that kernel actually android 1.1 or is it the test 1.5? Just as a reference for me

Cupcake 1.5

Hello All,

I seem to have a couple of issue with 1.5

First the home screen img does not got to the top to bottom and when going to the sliding to the right its does not go all the way to the right with the img

the other issue is the vibrate issue, I got email and it vib and would not stop unless putting it to sleep

The other issue is when puting to sleep the keys on the front stay on, I don't know about the full keyboard throw.

I am using the link http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3763106&postcount=5123

That helped indeed :)

Thought I had the latest, because I downloaded the latest, but I guess it was not :P

Now all I need to get working is 1.5, because it keeps on hanging when I put the phone to sleep, anyone knows a fix for that? Booting whilst having an USB cable plugged in doesn't help :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ritdaw:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] procupine14:
Yeah I had that problem as well so I have switched back to 1.1 temporarily which has worked flawlessly for me.

I'm not sure what the deal with the device hanging during sleep. Mine does that as well under 1.5 but it only hangs maybe 50% of the time.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ritdaw:
I had to set pm.sleep_mode=0 in my default.txt to stop the phone from hanging - not sure what the impact is on the battery though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MooNWalker:
The issue with 1.5 is not that it doesn't wake up with pm.sleep_mode=1, but that it wakes up without turning on backlight on screen. You can see the picture, you can see the desktop, icons, menu, etc. when it wakes up, but only with bright light outside.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ritdaw:
This is to do with the screen resolution in the default.txt file, look back a few pages its already been discussed.

However my config file has the following settings (which work):

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] procupine14:
My apologies. I must not have seen the previous post.

THANKS!

EDIT: changing that didn't do anything really. The screen rotates the correct way while the acutual touching actions are mirror images ie. on the home screen touching the icon in the top left activates the one in the bottom right etc. Also the arrows are backwards left is right and up is down when in ladnscape.

EDIT 2: Ok well now it flips the same way as the touch screen but thats upside down in landscape. I'm using the suggested resolutions from earlier and the size does change but the flipping action does not work right

I've been having calling troubles with my AT&T Tilt. I have the 5/4/2009 version of Android with the correct .txt loading (the one for kaiser) with the correct Internet settings in there.

I can connect to the Internet and download things fine, I can also send and receive text messages fine. However, calling does not work.

I have tried the most recent radio 1.71.09.01 and have worked down from that radio to the beginning of the the 1.65.*.* series and still have had no luck at all. I've even tried older builds of android.

Everything worked fine until about a few days ago, when I switched from AT&T to T-Mobile. Would switching carriers really have any impact on this? I have HARDSPL 3.56, sim and os unlocked, running Medkid Kaiser V1.6.3 OS 21500 WM 6.5 at boot.

EDIT: Best set up I personally got working. (Remember I have a T-Mobile SIM) (Also remember this is to fix the problem that my phone was unable to call anyone, but I was still able to use the Internet and SMS/MMS capabilities.)

This bundle: http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/android-1.1-27-02-09.zip

Replaced the zImage with this zImage: http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/zImage (dated: 14-May-2009 17:05 1.3M)

Used the most recent intrid.gz: you can pull this from any of the most recent bundles (the date for the intrid.gz I'm using is 4/17/09).

WinMo ROM to chain boot

I originally had issues being able to consistently boot android, however after reading a forum post saying the WinMo 6.5 alpha would consistently boot Android I switched (definately not upgraded) to 6.5 and it boots fine everytime now.
