All i need now is to have sleep mode and hw keyboard support and i'll be happy.

Ofcourse all the other things like wifi, bluetooth, 3g, data i can live without for now:D

Hi I am new to this and have the latest pack by TAC . I put all the files in the Internal memory and boot android. It starts to boot but then it stops with the error that failed to find rootfs.img file not found on card. Can someone please point me to a guide or something on how to get the android to boot using the TAC pack.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
Guys, when we talk about "internal storage", we are talking about Diamond users. If you have a Raph, use SDCARD root instead.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 1onew0lf:
Yeah TaC, I have a diamond ( DIAM140).... I copied all the files in the internal memory but the rootfs.img was not found. btw awesome work with android ... really admire you work ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
1onew0lf, did you copy al files in "internal memory" or in "internal storage"? It must be in the 4GB internal storage. ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ElCondor:
Oh I would like to try this soo bad! But the link doesnt work for me... when clicking the link, a new page shows up with a lot of codes. Not more.

What's the problem?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
New Bundle:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=A36D0YZY

Based on NK02 Ion image (Hero Themed) and DZO's last zimage with microphone working.

Includes resources folders (wallpapers, media, and apps). May take up to 5 minutes in the first time boot. Tested only in Diamond.

Put all files in the root of Internal Storage (Diamond) or SDCard (Raphael). Don't put them in internal memory in any case. Delete any data.img you have.

All credits to dzo and vilord. Thanks guys for your work.

Great job guys, I just did my first phone call with android on my diamond. It almost instantly killed my battery, but I expected that. Thanks to everyone that took us this far!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] RationalGaze:
Great job! Just made my first phone call using android also! And the screen wakes up normaly now when i push the home button (it didn't do that with the previous build).

But still, i get the edge icon (did follow the guide few posts back), but the internet isn't working, so isn't gmail. I'll try to edit more settings (ports and server IPs..) and report then.

Love the progres the developers have made! Keep up the good spirit!

If you can get data working and have a gmail account, you can export your contacts from outlook into your gmail account and sync to your phone.

Hi,

I have some problem with the battery. In fact, Android give wrong information about the percentage of the battery and give very less than the Wm (Critical battery for Android and 65 % for the Windows mobile 6.5 BsBQ) and the device want to shutdown the device. How to arrest this ?

It is very good work which you make.

Power management isnt fully implemented but for now it lets sleep and wake our device with some battery status. Not sure if 100% accurate though

Putting the one but last together in one line worked for me perfectly .. thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Palewolf:
Something went wrong with this build and my DIAM100.

Loopt crashes on his own a few minutes after boot.

Not only there's no sound, but launching any application (music player or ring tone config, for example) that uses sound freezes the system.

Many "vital" programs crash too, such as touchscreen callibration.

Are there any log/debug/info I could provide to help you guys solve those problems?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] LpBv:
Since I modified the startup.txt, it's ok ; the first boot was very long, but then I got the android desktop.

I can't test anything about Raphael, as i have only Diamond. Sorry guys.

To test any new bundle, you better delete all files related to android in the root of sdcard; you don't need to delete any folder.

Add the following line to your startup.txt:

And change the RAMSIZE parameter from 0x08000000 to 0x06000000.

Nah. A few pages back, someone made a post saying that these builds aren't using a swapfile any more. The old ones did. It's no big deal and won't prevent it from booting.

I tried the 090409 build, which isn't Hero themed, but which also doesn't have the android.process.acore bug. It does, however have a really annoying touchscreen problem. Everything under the notification bar activates the notification pop up window, when i move upwards and the notification bar area itself has everything else squeezed into it. o_O

EDIT: must have messed up something when I edited default.txt with my provider's data settings, works now that I changed back to default. How long do you guys think it would be before the data settings would be able to be input from within Android itself?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] computerguru:
Hey...something else I noticed...I get a "403 Forbidden" error when trying to access git.linuxtogo.org.

But as it stands right now, todays build from TaC, on the DIAM500 (Sprint CDMA), does not work. After adding the following to the startup.txt:

set RAMSIZE 0x06000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

It will boot the kernel, get to the system.img, and go to a white screen that flickers black every so often (I'm guessing a message on the console.)

This is the startup.txt I'm using (to keep everything simple):

set RAMSIZE 0x06000000

set RAMADDR 0x10000000

set MTYPE 1805

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "msmts_calib=0x81.0x393.0x358.0x7D msmvkeyb_toggle=hide no_console_suspend"

boot

And just to be on the safe side, I tried the RAPH800 mtype (2039), and noticed Tux looked correct. Went back to 1805, and realized the color issue is back.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shady78:
??

result please
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] |Jason8|:
Just threw that Hero-themed package that came out today onto my RAPH110 (Fuze). Holy awesomeness!

Sound works. Power management works. It can even tell if it's charging via USB!

It's fast, smooth, and I like it. It almost seems like it's running natively. Now I just have to get a better MicroSD card! Class 1 is SLOOOOOOW!

Also how in the hell do you calibrate the f'kin screen? The Calibrate Screen tool is busted.

BTW, Here's my default.txt/startup.txt. I have that clock attribute (clock-7x00.a11=528) added. You might want to remove this. I'm not sure if it's good or bad.

default.txt (It's also attached):

set mtype 1910
set kernel zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set ramsize 0x6000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 init=/init console=tty0 mem=76M msmsdcc_id=3 imgdevname=/dev/mmcblk0p1 imgdevnum=1 imgdir=/ msmts_calib=0x6D.0x5D.0x340.0x375 msmvkeyb_toggle=off lcd.density=192 ppp.apn=wap.cingular ppp.username=WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM ppp.password=CINGULAR1 clock-7x00.a11=528"
boot

And I got data to work using these settings on AT&T. Just follow the instructions (Credit goes to amanker for dreaming up this procedure!):

And the APN settings:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] computerguru:
The results were that it didn't work. I tried using the system.img from the wiki. Also, the kernel has the color issues from the looks of it again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Still using pre-hero build and if I put in anything except the default info into the data thing, the touchscreen fails to function properly. :S

This is what I've got:

set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz

# The following kernel parameters are useful
# ppp.username - The username used to connect to the network when dialing #777

my first n00b question for android. :D jk

While i was browsing fb on android it was amazing, almost like the full interface the thing that bothers me is i dont know how to fully exit the application. If i press the hw back arrow it goes back one page and eventually when i get to the first page i load it goes back to the main menu. That just takes way toooo long.

Does anyone know how to exit apps?:o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] slovoflud:
Oh! :) I was wondering the same thing browsing facebook yesterday. In fact, how do you exit any program without going Back Back Back though menus or pages?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] babijoee:

I didnt touch the device and left it for 1 minute. And saw the message android shutting down. :(:confused:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] babijoee:
Oh yes now that i think about it. There is one more additional button on android phones. Unlucky for diamond users though. Raph still has a hw keyboard, but maybe holding a button can be implemented to represent home :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Erik_PLD:
Or move the functions of some hardware buttons, if is possible, to others. By now, shut down button at the top of the diam does nothin'.

In spare parts, change the end button behavior to "home, then sleep", we'll probably use power for home eventually but till then this will work.
