Ok,

- I still have to make a phone call initially before i can hear anyone when receiving a call.

- My Google Maps is working with GPS, but the cell phone tower location is not quite correct.

- MMS is working as well

- WIFI is not working

- Still have battery level issues, as discussed by other ppl here before.

- Speakerphone dont work

- When in a call, the button sounds are distorted. (dial your voice mail and press some buttons)

Just reporting back. This bundle is by far the most stable to date.

Thanks DEVS..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] BlackBsd:
This seems strange to me, but i do run with data connected all the time. In android, from a full 100% battery reading. I get only about 6 hours worth of life.

I do not know how degraded my battery has became over the last 2 years, as that may be the cause. Or i can be that i surf alot and watch a lot of youtube on da droid :-)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ruizit0:
weeeeeee :D :D

i can send SMS again with last bundle

dont know what was the problem but is fixed with this new bundle :D

starting to use android again...

thanks devs to saving me from WINMO :D ^^

btw: now that i start using android again... what is the "FINAL" tutorial to make WIFI work on kaiser ?

ive been reading some diferent tutorials and from many diferente information sources....

can anyone point me the right direction to make wifi work on the latest bundle ?

thanks

WOW Dialing out works for me finally on the latest release at http://code.google.com/p/vogue-android/downloads/list

android-1.5-2009-08-07.zip

I was able to call voicemail... very cool!

WIFI Not working for me yet but will keep trying...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] billbakers:
I to am unable to get WIFI working with the latest files from vogue site. getrom works now but wifi still says "Unable to start Wi-Fi" Have upgraded my radio to 1.71.09.01. seems that data via 3g is not working when the calibration file exists. all else works just fine for me. data starts automatically now. THANKS for your hard work.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] natalic:
I have been playing with the latest bundle and now the mtd block is back. But /bin/getcal doesn't produce a working file...wifi still doesn't function. I am not sure why. I hope to figure it out (if its a simple issue) and report back.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
I'm testing out "android-1.5-2009-08-07" I will report back. If wifi works I will repack it all up again for all of you. ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Newbie16:
Can you try the one i just added to my wifi thread and tell me if it works?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
Just a heads up everyone. To get the wifi working you type this. For some reason alot have people have put the .txt extension on the getrom file and this is screwing them up. I hope this helps you guys! ;)

The terminal commands should look like this

su [Hit Enter]

cd sdcard [Hit Enter]

sh getrom [Hit Enter]

DO NOT put the ".txt" after "sh getrom" I do not know why the hell they said to but it does not work just enter those without the txt. Its automatically makes it a text file.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] knytphal:
Well, oddly enough I went ahead and tried the newest bundle (8/7) so I could at least give you the newest version of the logfile and lo-and-behold I'm able to call out! SMS works, Data works, I don't know about GPS nor have I tried Wifi.

Very cool.

Oh, I did have to change the APN to internet2.voicestream.com and removed the Username/Password to get data to work.

It worked as far as wifi goes, but it then stopped working...It was working better than it did before...I am now unable to access any pages.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Diznario:
Verified fixed, using the bundle from this morning. The ATT APN now works correctly out of the box, with no need for editing.

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tembares:
Am I lucky that it is not so bad at all.

I assumed that when I download a bundle and it says 'working Wifi' and there is no getrom in the bundle, Wifi is working.

Maybe our devs has improved the technics more than you and I thought that we did not had to use getrom anymore!

But thanks for your answer. There is this forum for, questions and answers.

I downloaded the bundle android-1.5-2009-08-07.zip.

I copied getrom from an earlier pack on the root of my SD card.

I did not delete my existing data.img!

I ran Haret, clicked on Menu->Settings->Wireless controls and WiFi.

WiFi was unable to start is the message I read.

When there is some need for some testing, let me know.

@ ljinsane

Ok first thing smart guy - that link isn't in the thread (there more then 8 or 9 threads between the kaiser & vogue android threads)

Second of all, smart guy, i'm referring to VIlord's android-1.5-2009-08-07.zip package, in which the instructions you posted DON'T work to activate wi-fi.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
I made wifi work for JACxROM 1.3 for Kaiser and Vogue. You drop my modded system.img from Zenulator (the only part I edited) and use the zImage, rootfs.img and initrd.gz from here, grabbing the latest build. I already have my calibration file and wifi works perfectly so far.

Zenulator's thread is here

Download here

If there's an issue with the build, I didn't make it I only made wifi work (not taking credit/responsibility).

Oh, I need to get su working on it (help?) and shutdown is not working-- haven't tried reboot. It will hang requiring soft reset.

Thread for this ROM for the G1 here. Thanks to justanothercrowd, Manup456 for the awesome theme and Zenulator for getting it to run on our phones.

* Wifi working

* Market fully working

* Contacts/SIM working

* Calls working

* SD Card access working

* Looks damn good

Nice theme, no errors on boot..wifi connected, looks like a mix of hero and a ion build without being slow..and better support for a physical keyboard for our kaisers. Wifi works better as well...can this be run with a lower res, or is it like the hero builds?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
tyler51773, you tried xROM? I already have my calibration file. I'm messing around with it now to fix shutdown and will make a bundle with the latest builds. That should eliminate the issue. It's using dzo's kernel and Vilord's latest.

ajclai08, it's based on the latest ION build so resolution is as it has been-- no bad Hero side effects.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ljinsane:
I TRIED to be cool about this

:rolleyes:

actually they do smart guy...that's why they were posted and not by me dumbass the link is the 1st post of the thread that is about getting wifi to work!...why dont you check the link ...again :cool:

and if you haven't got wifi working by now maybe this isnt for you..go buy a G1...because READING and FOLLOWING directions go not seem to be your strong suit

Thank you for sharing sir. I'm gonna try this soon

Funny thing is I don't think anyone ever asked your opinion, so until you have something constructive to say, stop being an ass to people.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] vilord:
you found the beginnings of USSD support :) I've been working on that in my spare time, I wanna be able to check my balance on my phone.

apparently your carrier is telling you how much the call cost or what you remaining balance is after each call.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
So were still using this method to activate the wifi...? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4222572&postcount=1 It sounds like it works off the bat. I will test right now. The Theme looks marvelous. If wifi works I am sticking with this build until everything works on android no more testing for me if this works with sms and wifi ;) Thanks my friend.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ljinsane:
awww..feeling hurt...good. Something constructive? thats funny I did that by pointing you to the thread that would help you get wifi working. Silly me I thought you could read and follow direction but alas that assumption was wrong. So if you do not want some ones help ...dont ask a question...on a message board. It's obviously not something you can handle:cool:

Thank you again for this sir! everything works wifi (using my own calibration file) data, calls, gps, and sms...

see JacenSolo2001, following directions does work!:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
You just did this command right? For calibration?

su

getcal
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ljinsane:
Actually no. I had wifi working before that thread was made by using these instructions:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4269320&postcount=1

So I just took my calibration file that was generated from that and followed enatefox's instructions and viola! I'm in buisness
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] :
Well I deleted mine. I hope I can regenerate one.... :(

*Having to use another build to generate a calibration file.... meh >.> Figures Ohwell.*
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Newbie16:
I've updated it, its all automatic, calibration is made on startup if it isn't already there and if the kernel has support for mtd reading. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ruizit0:
aahh perfect :D

my carrier after a call in winmo outputs me the duration of the call.. the price of the call and how much money i still have

hum vilord ... can you pin in your ToDo ... that question of keyboard lag :(

thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
Regarding xROM, it's just the system.img part. The rest of the files can be from any ION build (only system.img is responsible for the theme). Therefore any advance like automatic calibration file for wifi will work. You are taking ION from vilord, newbi16, etc. and just using the system.img I linked to.

We're close to having the shutdown part fixed and a few other nice features. Not that you should ever consider shutting Android down in the first place.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] captobie:
Battery life was the deal breaker for me too, with WM at about 24 hours vs. 6 hours (and sometimes much less) on Android. I'll have to see what pm.sleep_mode is set to on my phone.

Do you have news about camera on kaiser ?

At last!

the android-1.5-2009-08-08 bundle, has calls-out, wifi, data & sms-out working!

Although, i'd like to see a Hero build fully working as well... (I like the HTC widgets and the facebook-contacts-sync thingy :P)

Thanks for all the hard work! much appreciated!

[Edit]

Almost forgot!- what about languages that are not in the multilingual system.img ? Any way of adding fonts/system languages to be supported in reading sms / keyboard ?

Definitly moving to android as soon as bluetooth and camera working flawlessly... anyone also working for the MMI and STK for the android?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tembares:
Downloaded Bundle android-1.5-2009-08-08.zip and the system-hl2.img.

When I only use the ION-build, Wifi and everything else is working. The calibration file has been made.

When I replace the system.img with the Hero version, Wifi is NOT working. I am also missing some applications, like Calendar.

Am I doing something wrong?

Solution:

Delete your data.img to have all applications back

Wifi is not working with my calibration file
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] shadowline:
Did you make a new data.img? (by deleting the old?)

I only made wifi work on xROM and haven't even tried the new Hero build yet. If it doesn't say wifi, I don't think it's been done yet. I'll fix that now.

latest build

Well done you clever devs, this latest build seems to work really well , from google-code, whatever was happening with the paradox rar this full download once the zimage is renamed worked a treat - very good...

some one was asking about moving contacts between data's - if you have internet then surely google will do it for you, and if between winmo and google i found the funamobl client very useful, installed in winmo means my contacts are safe and when playing in android i can sync them in easy.

if funmobl in android gives you an error 500 make sure you turn off they sync for you address book in android first.

brilliant work, very good, how about bluetooth next please :p

oh and someone was saying about tomtom for nav, you can alredy get copilot for android and the winmo is my preferred platform or you can download nav4all from the market.

and on the market i found an app called vibrator and now my wife likes android too (only joking!)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
Okay, a compromise. Hero seems like Android's TouchFlo-- nice but too heavy so I'm going to stick with ION modded images mostly.

1.) JACxROM has working wifi with the latest build and handles sleeping/power collapse perfectly for me, SuperUser app is working just right. There is a custom shutdown that allows for rebooting. Something is wrong with it on our phones but I haven't found out what (yet?). The home screen Pre-style button is really nice and I like it better than a half-circle thing on the screen anyways.

2.) Mssmison's latest build (Hero theme not the Pre) is nice and a lot like Hero's overall look. I couldn't easily get wifi working on it but it can shut down like a phone should. It has a lot of stuff from Donut (Android 2.0) and has yet to be fully appreciated for all of its enhancements.

**********************************************************

Therefore, I present to you what I think is the perfect blend of the two.

It is almost entirely from Mssmison so you get Donut features, updated graphics, the thing will shut down, has swapping and tweaks, etc. It has his startup logo, Dream branding on the setup screen, wallpaper and top bar. I want to put JAC's top bar though. It has JAC's app menu which I like better than the Hero look. It has wifi working, Super User is working. In fact, it prompted me to allow the swap file tweak that's been added that's how spot on it is.

**********************************************************

This is the bundle including a blank data.img (128Mb) file for faster booting. It compresses so the total is 64Mb for everything.

I'm putting the files separate in that folder too.

http://www.mediafire.com/?ljsbslw24hm

The system.img is a hybrid of JACxHERO's from Zenulator that I tweaked for wifi and su and Mssmison's that Vilord just posted. The rest is 8-8-9 from Google-Code so you get pretty much everyone's contributions so far in one bundle.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MOUSEY:
Thank you very much ! Will put it to the test immediately !! I'll post my findings on whatever is working and not and hope this build will remain a longer period on my device ! :)

EDIT: I see that it's a data.img file bundled together within. May I request to make it a *.gz file for a start ? As the kernel will auto extract on first boot, this will help many of those who are interested to try out having to download a smaller bundle.

Anyway good that you bundled the whole thing in a zip. With so many files in many repositories, I'm sure many is quite confused on which init, system.img, rootfs, zimage to get a build with the best and available functionalities.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
I didn't compress data.img but I guess I could have-- it's only a couple of megabytes. I'm uploading the files individually though. Working very well for me. Oh, I completely forgot: the hosts file is from my laptop with tons of ad servers listed. Makes browsing the web much faster that way.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] MOUSEY:
I hope I'm in a better luck here. It's my 5th bootup now. :)

1st boot: Used the initial data.img, connects to the router but unable to obtain IP address

2nd boot: Unable to start Wifi, data.img looks broken after soft reset...

3rd boot: Deleted data.img and restart again - bad ideas (more force closes).

4th boot: Cleanup - try with new data.img (same results, force closes)

5th boot: Sticking back to the initial data.img, restarted router and try again

I keep a stock copy and replace each time I test to eliminate residual issues. The system.img part is the only thing not from Mssmison's bundle on Google-Code. Try to see if you can use system.img with another build if it's not working.

Retesting while awaiting download now...

The prior build was quite good as well. Except for the sleeping problem (like me personally), I had quite a good test and was about to make it run for me as an everyday thing. Then again, I retested the build just now and figured that a different test results came up - the market was broken instead...

Pretty weird, could it be determined by how the data.img were being generated/created and initialized ?

Here are the results as of last night:-

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
Sometimes things can go strangely despite the same files. For me, everything works but haven't tested GPS or texting. The main part that I uploaded is just the system.img but that does (should) not affect the Market or dialer.

I took the then-latest bits from vogue-android on Google Code and that already had been working for me.

I would assume any issues you have are not specific to the system.img and you would probably have the same problems with the other bundles. If you're having trouble, try one of the regular builds and you can then swap the system.img afterwards. I put the ones from Mssmison in the bundle because they have a lot of nice updates.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zakmcintyre:
Tested Last Update: the Hybrid from enatefox

I had great success with this build. The only problem that I have is that I get force close on outgoing and incoming calls every time. What should I change out to try and make this work? Which of the files controls this part of the build? I know a similar post was posted, but there was no answer except to "try different files". I am wondering if there is a more specific answer to this problem. After all, if everything else works, I don't want to go changing everything around. Thanks for all of the work and any help you can give.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] enatefox:
I put that together quickly and late last night so looking at the dialer, I'm not sure what build it came from. It's working fine for me but I don't like the look as much. I'm testing another one that has JAC's dialer and launcher since I like them better than Hero and the dialer should be more compatible (if that was the issue at least). Has the new rootfs swap fix so should be faster. Will upload if it works.

The build I put up last night was crawling this morning on a reboot. Maybe because I downloaded every Market app I could find.
