Tested rogers.zip

Hi

What a wonderfull build.. Thanks a lot to all who have developed this. Andriod definetly is far better than WM (for me atleast)

Was able to install the rogers build. It took sometime. I used the rootfs.img that came with the zip but didnt work on my tilt. So i used the one from the basefiles-v2 and that did the trick. It took sometime to load initially but did work.

Things that worked

1. Wifi and Market. Was able to download applications

2. Browser working

3. Calling and SMS worked (though with slight issues)

4. GPS working (recoginzed in google maps and Sportyhal)

5. Import contacts worked

6. Music with good clear sound

7. Great speed

Things that didnt work or had issues

1. You tube connect and i can listen to music but can only see the first image that it download and not the whole video

2. For some reason I cannot confirm at this time the calling was going thru but wasnt able to hear the call answer

3. All new icons for shopping, Home, My account give errors

4. Standard things not working - Camera, bluetooth, speakerphone on call

Can anyone help me out with anyof the above issue or is this something everyone is facing.....

I will continue to use this version instead of WM ...

Thanks

hum pmos i was trying your resolution config but i cant boot last rogers with rootfs included and the last basefilesv2..

did you use the rootfs of basefilesv2 or the rootfs included in the rogers bundle ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mcfarlan:
It would not boot for me with the one that came in the rogers zip. But, as the earlier poster stated, use the rootfs in basefiles v2. Boots in about three minutes. (did not try pmos config.)

Ion more stable on Kaiser

To everybody who have troubles to run the latest Ion builds on AT&T Tilt.

Each time I download and install new version of basefiles since the build dated September 1st, led to soon system crash (deleting data.img did not help), so I had to rollback to the old build.

I noticed the newest builds create swap file on sdcard, but older ones used ramzswap device (compressed RAM). If the SD card is not good enough, using SD card as a device swapping could possible lead to problem.

I decided to try this - I took the latest roomfs.img and made it to create swap in ramzswap, then I boot the latest kernel along with it.

After three days passed, I want to report, the system works much, much stable.

My system: AT&T Tilt ROM 3.57.502.2WWE (WM6.1 for AT&T Tilt); Radio 1.65.21.18

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] pmos69:
Don't know exactly what you are doing. Recent basefiles do not create swapfiles by default and use only compcache
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zc2:
I downloaded basefiles-20090919-v2.zip today and the swap was in ramzswap

Very well.

I can't explain now, but I believe the basefiles I tried before and since Sept 01, they either created /sdcard/swapfile or did not create it at all.

So, now the issue is closed, thank you very much.

Hi all. i have tried all different types of files. z-image-audio , z-image new keymap,old keymap etc etc. i just cant get audio to work. phone hangs or goes to not responding when i try alarm. also in some cases i cant even get phone calls to work (cant hear the other party). can snyone tell me the files to run android (preferably hero) stably and regularly. in short HELPPPPPPPP.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] 2girls1cup:
which build are you trying to use? on the vogue-hero googlecode site, use the mini hero system.sqsh and then use the base files of 9-15 or 9-16 I can't remember but use the latest base files. Remember to rename your mini hero system.sqsh to system.sqsh. Use the zimage audio fix file and also make sure you include initrid and rootfs. Last double check your default.txt and make sure you have correct settings.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ruizit0:
use the last basefilesv2 and the last rogers build ... download it from vogue-android

and the once you get on android make a first call.. after that you can recieve calls with no problem :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] okibi:
You can most definitely up the cluster size. Actually, I would recommend doing so too. Just keep in mind, if you set your sdcard to around 64KB cluster (assuming 512byte sectors), I presume you will notice that your speeds will start to slow rather than speed up. Start with about 16KB clusters and see what works for you. Mine is currently 16KB clusters and 512B logical sectors. This can be accomplished on linux with the following command (will wipe out your data, also check which device is your sdcard, mine is sdb1)

mkdosfs /dev/sdb1 -F 32 -s 32 -S 512

Thanks for your kind words. I intend to get back into releasing builds again (actually, I have a few custom builds, they just aren't hosted anywhere) Where would you all like me to host them? Should I use my old hosting sites, or can I put them on the Google Code pages?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] loserskater:
Good to see you're back! I would say the google code page would be fine. It seems to be the main site for releases at the moment. Just make sure we all know its your build and it doesnt get mixed in with the rest of them.

Still no go

hi all this is what i wrote previously

---------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------

i tried both these methods with both versions of the base files (20090915 and 20090919-v2). each time tried different combinations (with a media folder in the sd card , without a meda forder , fresh data.img. zimage, zimage-audio-noblootooth). nothing works.

what happens is that i cant set any alarm tone or phone ringtone. if i try to select a ringtone i get a message ( activity com.htc.app.HtcRingtonePickerActivity is not responding ) and doesnt ring when a call comes in. i have i feeling that android catn find the required files. like something is wrong with the files paths or something. can any one help me. i need to know if anyone of u guys can set your alarms, ringtones etc. and if u can what files do u have on ur sd card. i used to be able to run android fine back when wifi driver was JUST coming out. its hard to believe its gone down since then.

thnx for ur help

haret.exe freezes for me with Dutty's test rom

Good ROM that boots Google Andoird all the time: [May 22] Dutty's Official WM6.1 5.2.19585 Test Version

Link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=394202

things that work all the time commonly still dont work for me. bad luck i guess.

I grabbed the latest android cupcake package (Complete, updated build with WiFi (Hero themed) ) from the link provided

http://www.androidonhtc.com/kaiser:latest_builds

i unzipped all files into the root of the storage card, attempted to run the default.txt script and haret.exe ( v.0.5.2) freezed at the end of the progress bar ( haret: booting linux)

it stays that way until i do a soft reset. the phone gets really hot so the cpu is trying to do something. the SD card is formatted as a fat32, which i would expect would be the right format ( the glue between nix and windows).

what's the best plan of action? download a previous build from the archive? modify the default.txt file? Reformat the sd card?

progress

Well, i made progress, to no fault of my own. I started setting up Dutty's rom ( downgraded from paradox's 6.5) to sync with my outlook for my contacts and aside from that and opening the camera app to make sure it worked i did nothing else. Ran haret.exe over lunch and twice in a row it booted! well, at least i see my familiar friendly fat penguin in the upper left and the init begins. it freezes at the same point every time:

set gpio 32 wakeup 40000000

so, i downloaded the kaiser-hero-130809 build that was in the archive folder. I'll report if i see any changes after copying those files in.

I've posted this about 100 times. It works perfectly on an AT&T TILT on AT&T Network.

Currently I'm running the ROGERS system.sqsh file from this zip:

http://vogue-android.googlecode.com/files/rogers.zip

And these basefiles:

http://vogue-hero.googlecode.com/files/basefiles-20090919-v2.zip

Make sure you have NO data.img file on first boot. Also, get rid of all the other random crap that these builds have been putting on your card, such as cache, program folders, etc.

set RAMSIZE 0x07000000
set RAMADDR 0x10000000
set FBDURINGBOOT 0
set MTYPE 1553
set KERNEL zImage

set initrd "\Storage Card\initrd.gz"

set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=0 ppp.apn=wap.cingular ppp.username=WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM ppp.password=CINGULAR1 pm.sleep_mode=1 mddi.width=320 mddi.height=427 lcd.density=160 msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax=32000000 no_console_suspend board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1"
boot

The reason we use 320 x 427 is because the Rogers build won't boot/work with values smaller than 320 in the width. 427 height makes the aspect ratio correct. ION builds, and xROM builds don't require this high screen resolution. Usually I will set those builds to use 240x320 with lcd.density at 120. HERO requires the higher resolution just like the rogers build though.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] djrakun:
skola, thanks for the very thurough reply. I changed a lot of things after reading over your post. My memsize being wrong could definitely cause anomalies in the init. I changed it down to 0x07000000. In fact I used your entire default.txt file except i changed the apn, user and password.

I wonder how many of my failed boots were affected by the data.img file that is created. I prob blew right through a working config because of residual bad parameters.

I mimicked your config ( used all the same files) and after the bootstrap loader i get a blank screen. I wonder if the blank screen has anything to do with the resolution size that you set in the default.txt. I have a pretty early version of the AT&T TILT ( KAIS100). Don't know if that makes a difference

Can anyone let me know if there is any rom out there that doesn't have the bug where you can't hear the other party in a phone call sometimes?

I would like to know if that bug still exists in any of the latest versions, if so could you post which build it is so I could try it. The last 4 builds different builds I've tried all have that problem and its not a big deal i just restart but I'd like to know if its been solved yet, and if so the build date or link to the rom that has it fixed.

just make sure you make an outgoing call first (to you voicemail for ex) and you can avoid this bug...

don't u think that is considered a workaround and not an actual solution to what i presume is a known problem?

so basically to make sure i understand the workaround, upon every boot up of android i have to call someone, even if its my voicemail to initialize the hardware/drivers(?) and then from there on i shouldn't have any more problems right?

If you are ok with the screen being a 'little fuzzier' you can simply change the resolution to 360 x 480 and get the full dial pad. (instead of 320 x 480)
