well i have used the same link as you chnapsy.

downloaded the one labeled 'new' (Version: 20090204)

unpacked it to my internal storage

i ejected my device from the os

unplugged the cable

reinserted the cable but chose 'activesync'

then open file explorer

navigated to /internal storage/tmp/boot and ran haret18

i clicked run in haret

wait for a while. the first run takes longest

play with android!!!

this worked on my orange touch diamond (the phone thinks its a p3700 but we know its a diam100)

I hope you are aware that myself and many others have spent the last god knows how many pages on this forum helping out the "common human beings" on getting Android running, many of whom ask the same questions over and over so I try my best to help as many as possible.

Follow the step-by-step posted by petay. Also make sure that you place the right folder in the right place (check the video guide at connect-utb.com --> downloads --> other).

That being said, I dont think you will get much out of running Android as it is in terms of development. Right now we are working on getting everything working in .27 that was working in .25.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] chnapsy:
Hi Petay,

It seems I missed the step "reinserted the cable but chose 'activesync'"

I'll try tonight.

(I followed a video tutorial I find on this forum)

Thanks for your answer
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] chnapsy:
Hi,

I well understand the situation and am pretty aware about the great job you and other are doing, I just wanted an answer.

It seems I got one, right here. :)

I don't know if I missed a post on those 225 pages but I did not find a step-by-step method as wrote petay there.

Be sure if I saw one before I did not asked ...

By the way, if it does not exist I am ready to write a standard step-by-step how-to and host it to avoid those newbies questions from others.

Cheers

Chnapsy
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Gautje:
Sure, there are many step-by-step posts :) Ain't too difficult. And if you read the Wiki, and just read what people wrote here, you might have just thought of unzipping the folder on your Internal Storage, and then run Haret. Easy, no?

ehy guys , answer me !!! ----> HERE
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rmahmoodi:
Hey guys, I just purchased my Diamond last night and I've been playing around with it. Anyway, I would really like to get involved with writing drivers for this to help move it along. I just picked up another laptop (waiting for it to arrive in the mail) that I'm going to load Linux (maybe OSX) on and use it for this awesome project.

My question is, where can I find some information on the MSM chipset? Or is there another program I can use to sniff out the calls being made? I am new at developing drivers for Linux, but I think I'm a pretty fast learner.

Hope to contribute something to this soon.

Thanks for all the hardwork guys!

Same problem here ., what am i doing wrong .:confused:

Edit - Got it working after 2nd reboot ..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mike171562:
I can boot fine, I try opening the "apps" section, I can see the apps, but if i try to click on any of them, there is either no response or the screen is affected up on the opposite side, and the blind folds down. I finally was able to select one app, but it froze up forcing me to reboot again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mike171562:

Android on HTC diamond

I have T-Mobile MDA Compact IV (T-Mobile version of HTC Touch Diamond). I putted android version android-diam100-20090204. It runs very well, i even can make phone calls and run apps, but there is a blue dot on the upper-left side of the screen and when i press some key the screens becomes blurry and messed and soft reset is required.

Can something be done to solve this problem.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] holydhaliwal:
This is a cdma phone? are you're colors messed up?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dejant_9:
pfff...it's the old keyboard used for the old init.. Now the keyboard is hidden and this blue dot was maked to drag the keyboard...read this forum before posting please..And i know it's not very easy because there were a lot of stupid questions like that..Now, remember that android is in early stage of developement, and absolutely not a daily use OS, so this blue dot isn't an important problem.

So: problem solved.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
Hi, i'm having trouble removing my pin(tryed googleing it with no success).

I go to Start -> Settings -> Phone -> PIN and uncheck "Require PIN when phone is used" i enter my PIN and here's where the problem apeares, it does not except my PIN at this piont("Invalid old password.Please try again"?!).

What am I doing wrong?

thx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
same problem, I decided as follows:

1. took out the battery for 5 minutes

2. PW on, SoftReset + Vol down

3. reload rom & radio

4. full Hard Reset with internal storage
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lilecho:
possible troubleshooting methods

Hey, I've seen your couple posts explaining the problem you are having and had a couple ideas that may or may not work but are worth a shot I'd say. Since the problem seems to be involving power (battery, ac, etc) I'd recommend changing up the ways your device is using/getting power to see if affects the error you receive. First, try going into 'Power Settings' (Start --> System --> Power) and unchecking "When device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC." Soft reset, connect through ActiveSync, run haret, attempt to boot Android. If that doesn't work, re-enable the option you just disabled, then remove the battery and run directly off USB power. Again attempt to boot Android in the usual fashion. Again I'm not promising anything, but I figured I'd throw a couple ideas your way in the hopes that maybe they'll help you. Cheers and good luck :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] yuco91:
THX for this INFO. I try it and then I can explain you the results. THX :):):)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nooblet:
Im not able to do that since I have a Mac and not windows, it booted once but just once and then not after that.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] oaa8:
you may just try switching the phone to activesync mode and connect it anyway. Mine got stuck once and I just tried connecting it to a mac since I was not at home and it worked. It may have just needed to reboot though.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] SniperZoz:
Hmn ... i've posted this problem elsewhere but now I think it's andriod related!?

Earlier today I ran andriod for the first time since I installed the AZTOR rom. It got stuck somewhere in the linux initialisation (cli) so after some 5 mins i gave up and hit the soft-reset. From that moment onwards pretty much 9/10 of anything i run (on winmo) gives me the "certificate error please reinstall" message, and any cab i run fails to install.

Is there a known way how to fix this w/o hard-reset? Or is hard-reset the only way?

Help me please!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] demacus:
Sers, SniperZoz

I had the problem too, I think it's a problem with AZTOR rom because I was getting the same error several times with different applications i tried to run.

So I don't think this problem is android related...

I'm now at aFast Rom which is also nearly stock and runs great at my device, baterry life is very good with this. ( nearly 4 days at normal use )

And yes, I think hard reset will be the only way o fix.

regards

demacus
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TrizO:
i was just wondering, is it possible to switch back to Win Mo if i needed to sell/exchange my phone after installing android?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] demacus:
Why don't you look into the WIKI if you don't wanna read the whole thread?

So please guys, come on, read the WIKI!

If you don't wanna read here or in the WIKI, i can recommend you NOT TO TRY ANDROID ! IT WILL BRICK YOUR DIAMOND!

So please stop wasting this thread.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
You are not installing anything yet, so Windows Mobile wont be touched. When launching Haret you only boot into a linux environment (and from there into Android) after shutting down Windows Mobile. When you reboot your phone, you are back into Windows Mobile.

When we get Android fully working, we might think about making an Android ROM or something, but for now, Windows Mobile wont go anywhere ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TrizO:
Thanks for the quick reply! that clears it up, im going to install in now.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Its unfortunately a very well known problem (read the Wiki for more info). :/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
I ran again Android, and now my Diamond is dead.

My bootloader is loading with great triable :(

When I'm update my ROM to stock ROM, update stops at 13% !!! :)

!!! I ADVISE NOT TO TRY ANDROID !!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] balsat:
Have you tried i hard reset?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] petay:
Ho did you manage to brick your diamond???? i have tried android hundreds of times and never had a problem.

also you dont need windows to place the device in active sync mode. mine asks me when i insert the cable what mode i would like. sometimes it decides not to so i have to go to start -> settings -> connections -> usb to pc and choose it in there (there is also a tick box to say 'ask me') when i connect the usb in active sync mode it comes up as another network device in ubuntu. i use linux 99% of the time although i dont really know enough to contrbute more :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
I can't make HR, my device says "not load USB Host"

if I manage to make photo, i attached....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
photo my device on press vol dwn + enter + SR
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] skero666:
Same here, booted into android lots of times, tried different builds and no problem, never i had to hard reset or other problems... it's funny that i had to hard reset from some stupid applications i tried to install on my diamond but from android never...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] skero666:
excuse me if i am wrong but i think hard reset it's done by pressing Volume Down+enter(the round key in the middle)+soft reset, and you keep pressing vol down + enter, that's how i do it...:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] petay:
http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_diamond_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html

maybe the other combination is putting it into a bootloader mode?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
sorry, i made mistake in my post :)

i have done the same you have posted.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
its really strange. many people here have try Android and nobody have crash there device. You have modify something in "default.txt".

And what is your device ? DIAM100, DIAM400, ... ? can you explain how you get your device like that ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
no

DIAM100

run Android many time, no PC connection!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
its really strange. you have installed some applications in Android ? maybe its due to an installed application ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
i haven't been installing application on Android
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
This is really weird. Its almost so weird that I suspect there is something else thats causing your problems.

The only thing you do is that you copy files your internal storage (so nothing is installed, no system files touched), and then you boot up haret which shuts down Windows Mobile. I dont know enough about how Haret works on low-level, so if it really was haret that killed your WinMo, it has to be related to the custom ROM you were running.

I know its not something you want to hear, but running custom ROM's is always a risk.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] petay:
correct me if im wrong but i dont think android has killed WinMo since the early days of trying to mount the internal storage and geting the OS storage instead.

on a side note, i dont know how old/new the news is but htc now have 2 android phones http://www.htc.com/www/product/magic/overview.html

maybe there is something new in there we can make use of??? drivers etc??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
I still have the 'unknown partition table' error on mmc0!

Anyway, it still continues, android boots (YEH!)

I get to main screen, but it's only alive for 10 seconds, then screen fades away and i have to reset.

Tried twice, can't keep it alive. Any ideas? It's such a bad looking 'fade' :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
You mean the screen times out? You can turn off the screen timeout in settings --> Display.. The screen may also fade if you hit then end-button (or in many cases, the right-button). You can solve this by using the Spare Parts app to map the end-key to "Home".
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
I knew my odds from the beginning, but I really wont to solve this problem!!! :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sakkeus11:
I know this will help you.

Press vol. down and power button and reset button.

Then you have tree color screen with "serial" text.

Now you can flash new rom with ruu.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] doloop:
Are these garbage lines normal on your photos ? Seems like you've got an hardware problem, probably not related to android.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
HTC G2 and G1 its like Diamond an Rapahel same device one with keyboard and other without. i'm looking the G1 specs its really really near the Diamond same processor same camera.

Anyone have look the exact specs of the G1 ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dr4g0n:
i got this error message..

whats wrong with my raphael?

i testet it with images on SDCard and phonememory with the newest programm files
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dar_k:
this garbage line appeared after i ran android
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mcage:
http://androidcommunity.com/htc-magic-android-phone-hands-on-20090217/

soft keyboard..

could this help diamond version forward?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sibbor:
Wow, looks nice!! On the specifications page it's the same CPU, the camera and also the same amount of RAM as in our the Diamonds. We can only hope someone is able to dump the ROM once the phone is available somewhere. Also keep our fingers crossed that more of the hardware (like graphics, radio, USB, WiFi, BT, GPS) is identical with the Diamonds and or Raphaels =)...

Still a long way to go either way; navipad, hardware buttons etc. is different, but major progress have been made at that area so here's hoping!! Even though it's been quiet slow lately...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] petay:
didnt this keyboard come in with the cupcake branch?? the android i have running on my diamond has the same looking keyboard
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pomophobe:
Maybe a silly question...

Hey there, I was wondering... And, sine the thread title states "Not Working Yet"... Has anyone got this working? And for the current builds what are the known issues?

I realize the information is in the thread, but scouring through 230 plus pages... well that's a bit difficult.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rmahmoodi:
Well, I just got my laptop in so I had to get a new version of Linux, anyway, I downloaded the latest build from Connect-UTB and it was a corrupt zip file...downloaded it from another link and it seemed to work out great. Loaded it up on my phone and ran Haret without a single issue. Only took about a total of 30 seconds before I was at the "Clock".

I tested outgoing calls and it worked! So the radio does work, the only problem is there's no audio. I'm looking into contributing, but I don't know much about the MSM7201a, is the audio built onto that chip or is it on a seperate chip? I've searched but couldn't really find an answer.

I'm going to build a new version with Cupcake and see how far I can get with that.

One last thing, I want to try to wipe WinMo completely from this system, how can I upload a custom bootloader to this phone?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] straylight:
Really? Seriously? Reading the first 5 pages or the last 20 posts would give you the info you are asking for.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Serren:
Yeah, the zips are corrupt on UTB's site. Anyone have working mirrors?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Or just read the Wiki for updated progress.

The .zip's are just fine for 99% of the ones who download them, but for some reason, certain people have problems with them. Havent found out why yet.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
i look an video of the new Android device (G2), the resolution seems smaller and more usable, always any way to reduce the screen resolution on our device (Raphael or Diamond) ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] touch of jobo:
It should be the micro sd card, not the 'internal' memory. Either you have to change the msmsdcc_id in the cmdline in your default.txt (to 3 for example, see wiki) or your sd card is partitioned weirdly.

It first apeared in the cupcake branch. That branch has been merged into the master branch a while ago. The soft keyboard is now in master, cupcake, donut. (This is an Android thing though, not a Raphael / Diamond thing or even a linux thing.)

'This' is, as the thread title says, not yet working. Not functional.

There are only 2 things you can do: development on the kernel to support more of the hardware (aka 'make this work'), or 'play around a bit'. If it boots first time, its nice to play around. Otherwise its probably not worth spending time getting the current state on your phone (not even your own time..) unless you're interested in linux kernel development.

No. The kernel presents the phones frame buffer to Android to draw in. Its up to android (or any user gui) to just 'draw bigger'.

-Jobo
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
Okay thanks jobo for the precision. any new things for the diamond and raphael ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] whylessfone:
My guess is that they are still working on it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
I can update you a bit.

We have moved on to 2.6.27 but are having problems getting everything working, especially the touch screen. Its apparantly only working when Android gets a call (for some reason).

Being on 2.6.27 gives us several benefits though, such as the ability to access a second memory bank, although I dont know the specifics regarding that.

So, progress has been made but the Touch-screen issue is really bugging, so hopefully, once we get that out of the way, we can race on!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
Nice, thanks for the update Untouchab1e. :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] icewhitenewyear:
Alright, so here's my problem...

I boot haret...

And get this message.

Then it just keeps going again and again...

Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tienhn:
dumb question

Hi All,

If this is a dumb question, please forgive me. But is there any hope or plan to have the Android really works with HTC Diamond or Raphael? I mean works as in able to make call, SMS, browsing Internet etc,.?

Cheers,
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Which build are you running and what device are you trying to run it on? Your sig says you have a HTC Kaiser, which would explain your troubles ;)

Slightly difficult question, as it's impossible to say as we cant predict how the development will go. However, there isnt really any real reason it wont. It's basically just a matter of time.

So, no guarantees, but its absolutely possible, and I would even say its likely ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] icewhitenewyear:
Oh sorry about that i forgot i havent changed my sig in awhile, i currently have a touch pro. (fuze)

and im running the latest download from connect-utb.com
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] icewhitenewyear:
Double post, sorry.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Ah, ok.. You say it keeps on going and going? Could you elaborate? Also, try changing your msmsdcc_id to 3. (You can do this manually by editing the default.txt or use the Android Config tool available at connect-utb.com --> Downloads --> Connect-utb). Remember to soft reset after disconnecting the USB-cable.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] icewhitenewyear:
Ok i just changed the msmsdcc_id to 3 and now i get the following errors,
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
You can try the ActiveSync trick (as I like to call it). Connect your device to your computer and put it in ActiveSync-mode, then try to boot Android (both with msmsdcc_id = 2 and 3.

Good luck!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Krad213:
Hi guys, all respect for developers of this port, but what whole other community can do ? I think we can sing a petition to HTC and Google, that we demand android roms for devices that already on market, maybe it would be not full-suppoted rom, but rom with working loader and hardware drivers. We have XDA and much of android-fan sites in our own countries and even PDA oriented sites would help, so we can build pretty big community to sing our petition.

And its obvious that Google must be involved, they spent million of bucks on android-software contest, so why don't spend another couple of thousands to boost thier own platform to devices that already in users' hands ?

Lets try, what would we lose anyway ? :)

PS (sorry if my english isn't perfect :) )
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mugglesquop:
has anyone seen the new 'Cupcake' version of Android that is to be on the new 'HTC Magic'?

looks like it may solve some of the problems :)

i'm sure someone can get hold of a dump of the ROM...

-edit- damit, just noticed someone else has mentioned this :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Cupcake has already been merged with the master branch. The newest builds for Android that are available through Connect-utb for example already includes Cupcake. (Try writing a new text message and you will see the new fancy on-screen keyboard)

If you were rather thinking of the HTC Magicians hardware, we will have to wait and see but the touch screen is different at least (capacative synaptics screen I believe) and I am pretty sure it wont help much. That said, I could be wrong ;)

Regarding what others can do, a massive demand for HTC to make Android ROM's is good of course, but sadly, I dont think it will work. They seem to be quite steady on running two separate product lines. The high-end Windows Mobile powered devices, and the lower-end (read: ugly) Android powered devices. :(
