Ah sorry, I was jut referring to Android in general

For OpenGL ES, they all work except 'Translucent GLSurfaceView'

How can I test neocore?

Quick question though. How do I get back to home screen? The home button just brings up the menu.... and the back button only goes back to the previous process.

Oh and one more. If I want to set the language/locale to something other than the ones listed (Korean), do I need to build an img from scratch? Though there seems to be no problem with Korean output..... (input is another matter since there is no official Android device in Korea yet)

Concerning the UI, while most of the UI looks pretty good despite the fact that there are currently no VGA Android devices (when will we see them I wonder...), I can see some large pixels on some elements (analog clock widget for example).

For this, hopefully HTC will release some higher res android devices in the future.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] t0mb0:
Same here. Also got the DIAM300 and tried many different things.

But still I had no luck at all accessing the internet (even when having the G/3G symbol).

Is there anyone out there with a DIAM300 that has a data connection working in Android?

PS: You can read what version you have after taking out the battery.

I changed the keyboard to touch input now can't change it back and it shows as a tiny one (qarter of the screen) as well help please :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Trying the Diamond build. I'm still getting the android.process.acore crashes when trying to show desktop... :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Erik_PLD:
Babijoee, HTCMania team is testing the build and the graphics and soon we'll have the results. Some special info to report? Like kind of diamond or something like this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] :
yes, it is working. But only if i switch in WM from 3g to gprs.

Then follow this post
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fwonz:
How do you switch from 3G to GPRS ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
DZO, there is some kind of problem in the last kernel with touchscreen. It's very unresponsive compared to 0906 version. :)

I was packeting a new build, but will wait until your kernel is fixed. ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] wrsg:
is it a known bug that once the screen is locked, when you try to unlock it by pressing menu, nothing happens/the screen stays black? this bug has been troubling me for a long time with android, and it is still in the latest beta version from connect-utb
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
If you have a Raph, yes, it's known.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] wrsg:
i have a diam100
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sakara:
yes with diamond...but i do this: in settings there's a security section...here there's an option to do a combination to unlock the screen...with this u can unlock ur screen...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] wrsg:
ok i will try this, but how does this work if the screen is blacked out? maybe it does, i havent tried yet.

edit : wtf , it worked :) thanks, one more nail in the coffin of WM :D

HW Keyboard RAPH100 not working

The hardware keyboard on my RAPH100 isn't working.

is there a fix?

thanks in advance

Hello,

I'm just became an Android adict :) Cool stuff guy and very good work. Really big progression !! Thk a lot and good luck.. I waiting for new build impatiently.

Cheers !
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] radiance26:
yeah

It's work ! But the life of battery is very short :s
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] counterfitninja:
Been testing this new build out on diam100.. can get very sporadic grps connections but drops after 2 mins, but i did manage to get google maps to work, and wow im impressed it matches if not beats that i have seen on the iphone....

any thoughts on the dropping grps?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] belsj:
how can i get the data settings in android. In the settings APN this is empty!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] :
Change in the phone preferences from "Auto" to "GSM".
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
Select your network manually. Then you can add and save new APNs. Once done, you can select network automatically again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
What happend to the resolution, the icons are a lot smaller then TaC's package. Also background doesn't fit. Trying out now
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] belsj:
Thanx, It's ok now. I didn't know you have to push the Home+Center button. Do you know the MTYPE for a Blackstone/Touch HD?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
Get neocore by installing it via market.

ohmy it looks awesome hahaha

didn't know this thing could do that :)

It gets sweaty though :p :)

DIAM100: 17,5 FPS no sound

DIAM100: (sound stood off)

yeh...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] euromusic:
press center and home :)

that worked for me
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] thedicemaster:
other builds most likely ran android's native HVGA resolution upscaled, while this one runs android with the phone's native VGA resolution.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
I like the bigger icons more :)

This VGA is quite tiny.

is there a setting in boot?\ing?

Well, anyway, I recommend going to the market and get some games, coz this android is just very good in gaming :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Tenny:
It appears that the DIAM500 is falling behind again. I can't seem to get it to boot properly. I am stuck with the white flickering screen like most.

Then we still have the mtype issue:

-mtype=2039/2040

---Colors are fine!

---Will Not Boot! (Waiting for SD Card)

-mtype=1805

---Boots slightly...

---White Screen that flickers black every ~15 seconds

---Colors are incorrect

Anyone with a DIAM500 make any more progress? Anyone have other ideas? I am using DZO's 09/09/09 Diamond zImage
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kilak:
Thanks it work :D

Is it possible to have the startup.txt for SFR France please ?

i have actually :

but don't work :\

thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Spike1506:
Is it a known bug that the phone doesn't charge when running Android? I tried it via USB to PC and the normal way. Both didn't work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kailashnj:
charging

Yes its a known bug that the phone does not charge
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donald-c:
Well it charges if it is connected when you boot Android, for both.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] MrPippy:
Yeah, I use a couple-line hack so that MMC works when mtype=2040, but android still doesn't boot. I just get the white screen and android is in an infinite loop trying to start, but crashing. SurfaceFlinger, power, batteryinfo, usagestats, and telephony.registry all die, which is why it can't boot.

Android worked on diam500 at the beginning of the summer, so I'm going to start reversing kernel changes and try figure out what it was.

Also, I can successfully load the wifi driver, but I can't test it because I can't boot android.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Spike1506:
That seems to work indeed.

My other problem is that I cannot sent SMS. I can receive them fine but sending one doesn't seem to work.

Furthermore: Great jobs devs! I really love the work you guys did.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
Here we go. New bundle.

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

- Based in mssmison's squashfs adaptation of xrom1.4r3.

- Includes last DZO's kernel and last rootfs

- Added a few apps i like.

- Delete all files related to android (but folders) from root of storage.

- Copy all files in the pack, only change startup.txt if you need it.

- Be patient at first boot

- If you get an unresponsive screen or Android gets locked at startup, use zimage_old instead of zimage.

- Don't use wallpaper gallery to change wallpaper. Use images in sdcard instead.

- You may get random locks, sorry, i haven't a solution yet.

- All credits go to dzo, vilord and mssmison. Thanks enatefox for some tips.

Please, if you use or mirror this pack, give credits to those who deserve it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] William2009:
thanks TaC for the new package.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
So, whats new here in terms of functionality?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
Minor optimizations, base files updated, and a new rom to try.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Cool!

It didnt run on my Raph100 using the same startup.txt that I used with your previous pack. At a late stage in the console process the screen just goes black.. Il fool around a bit more and see what I figure out

EDIT: Use the zImage-Old and then it booted.. cool
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Erik_PLD:
Gracias por tu trabajo Tac y devs!

Thanks for your work Tac and devs! :D

And now let's play!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
I waited a minute or 5 on that black sceen an pop, there it was (diam100).

Question, I am not blind, but during Android inside a dark screen, it

very

light shows 'menu' and 'contacts' softkeys from windows mobile at (seen this ONCE!). I thought it was burnt-in but it was gone later. Is this not completedly unloading WM the issue? very strange to see... Hope I can picture it sometimes.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] saudoo:
Teeter for president! Please! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mhndk14:
its up and running on diam140

the new ui is very good, it is better than previous one.

thank you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donald-c:
I think I am one of the few who actually like the theme, I REALLY like it lol.

I hope it is in the newer releases, the normal Android OS isn't really that nice, its better than WM still though :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] boas:
YES! Thank you very much for a new ROM.

Using it on a Raph100.

So here's what I know right now.

3G - no go, used same method to set up, APNs etc. Don't work this time for me.

Android boots in to headset mode.

The menus is significantly faster (me like very very much!), but home screen is very slow, and having difficulties deleting icons etc... The touch screen is unresponsive from time to time ex: Can't use the dialpad during a call..

But its looking great!! Love the new rom regardless!!

EDIT: Having difficulties scrolling, it don't seem to want to, instead opens the first icon I manage to touch..

EDIT2: Repeated the APN process got some kind of connectivity, but it jumps on and off from the 3G (I'm 300meters in sight from basestation, so it's not bad coverage).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
For the unresponsive screen, try rebooting. If that doesn't work, use zimage_old instead.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] boas:
Thanks for you answer! Will try!

Also, after some third and fourth try I now got a stable 3G connection :D

EDIT: Screen sensitivity got much better after the reboot.

EDIT2: Only got a stable 3G once, now system crashed, black screen and nothing is responsive =)

The best is how fast the menues and thing is, will try the zimage_old and see what happens =)

EDIT3: With the old kernel, the scrolling works, and menus still is fast.. But best is a stable 3G :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Hey, this new themed one actually works, but every once in a while the touch screen stops responding so I have to hit a hardkey to make it work again. o_O

EDIT: I kinda liked the previous Hero theme, though. :/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Untouchab1e:
Its now up on Connect-UTB.

For those struggeling with getting data connection working, be sure to follow this guide, based on Babijoee's guide somewhere here a few pages back.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
UGH! I was _THIS_ close to posting in this thread from Android on my Diam100, but the stupid thing keeps shutting down due to a low battery, even though WM says there's 40% left!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] edgevision:
I'm on a RAPH800, on Bell Mobility in Canada.

First off, none of the builds or startup.txts provided in the new builds work for me. I snagged the mtype and msmts_calib lines from an earlier build on Connect-UTB specifically for the RAPH800.

Then it booted, except as soon as the UI loaded it decided I have 0% battery and immediately shut down.

So then I booted with USB cable. This time it booted fine and didn't auto-shutdown.

I don't have this phone's ESN activated at the moment (using a Vogue with Android instead). So I'm waiting until this project matures just a bit more before re-activating. Anyone that's used a Vogue knows how much better the specs and general hardware are on the Raphael. Nothing against the Vogue, it's just QVGA and old and meh-ish.

That being said, it's still faster than the Raph on WM. Raphael with Android is what I want, and from what I can tell it's blazing fast.

I'll post more results once I activate the phone.

Edit: Biggest ball-breaker is that the slide-out hardware keyboard isn't working, and (along with that) I can't figure out how to rotate the screen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] korytr:
Hi,

right now im trying to get this one work on my Diamond GSM and put all the files in the zip file into a folder called tmp on my Internal Storage. From there I started the haret.exe and it's loading since 10 minutes and there are some numbers and a text. It looks like this "[ 2929.2615698] msmfb_start_dma 105.652 ms after vsync request". The first number is always counting up and I'm waiting and waiting ... it seems not to end. Can somebody help me ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Posting this from the latest android build. GREAT SUCCESS!

EDIT: before the "PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN" brigade flies in:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] korytr:
Can you give me a step by step instruction how to get it work? Because all the guides I read didn't get me Android working.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Android or data on android?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Yeah... It's not turning back... :(

EDIT: Ugh, another thing... is it possible to disable Android's automatic critical battery shut down procedure? It did that now at 80%...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] slawson:
so has any progress been made for us cdma users?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kmartburrito:
Not that has been reported as of yet. I'm going to remain patient, as I hope to be able to keep my $30 SERO plan on Sprint with Android on my TP, as it looks like they're going to force you to upgrade your legacy plan and pay twice as much per month to get the same features with their HTC Hero phone.

Eff that, but I've been waiting for Android on Sprint since the OHA formed, so it's really hard. Kudos to the dev team for accomplishing so much in the past couple of weeks!!

I'm hoping the CDMA stuff that Google released a few weeks back will eventually help out us CDMA users.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] God_Lx:
did it actually end ? after about 15min i kinda lost patience too... Just hope it's a bit more responsive than the Nike, it's working pretty good in that 3G included
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] smoothunit:
Yay a new build, how exciting!

I've tested a few now and never really had any problems except now when I boot haret I get it continuously scrolling screen text and not booting Android.

I've tried the included startup files but all give me the same problem. Is there anything I'm missing?

I'm on a Raph100 if it helps.

*Edit- exactly the same problem as the above poster*
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] God_Lx:
Diamond 100 here, it's says it's a fsck, but i kinda doubt it could run for this long... the 4Gb internal storage isn't that bad...

Anyone could boot this latest package sucessfuly using the regular zImage ? i might try with the old one...

EDIT: Confirmed, old zImage works fine and booted without issues...

By the way for the less up to date don't use a tmp folder in storage card anymore, files should be on the root of the internal storage in Diamond.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] slovoflud:
UPDATE: Everything runs fine! I just had to delete the old files before copiing the new ones (including Data)

the two latest 09/09 builds woork much worse forme.

both speed and stability.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] MrPippy:
zImage for DIAM500

I've gone back to an 8-day old kernel revision that works on DIAM500. I use it with mtype=2040. It boots and runs, though its sluggish because GPU acceleration isn't being used.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Styx81:
Isse with the Internal Storage on Diamond

Hi all,

First of all, thanks for this great project! :)

I see that a loot of people have problem with mounting internal card (on Diamond), and they get the error:

"mount:mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: InvaFailed

Failed to mount the SD card.cannot continue.

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

This is because the Internal card is set to logical partition, and not to primary partition.

A sollution is to use the Diskpart program thats included in Win7 & Vista.

1. Type "cmd" in start meny.

2. Type "diskpart" in command.

3. Type "list disk" (this shows all the available disks, your internal card should come up as a 3,5 GB disk. If it dosnt come up, then the Diamnod USB-settup is wrong. Try turning of activesync.

4. "Select disk x" (where x is the Diamond)

5. "List partition"

6. "Select partition X" (where x is the internal storage)

7. "Delete partitione"

8. "Make partitione primary"

9. "Exit"

10. "Exit"

Note that when I listed my partitions on my Diamond, it showed 2 partitions each with 3.5 GB. So I had to select & delete them both before I could make the primary partition (you have to do point 6&7 twice).

Now you need to Format the card to FAT32 before copying the files to the root of the card.

And please, be SHURE thats its your internal disk and NOT the computer disk you select as this will likely f... up your computer! :p

Hope this helps ppl!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zmelkoow:
Hello guys!

I just put it on my internal storage. It seems to run properly but when I get to enter the PIN it allways says incorrect PIN number. I am surely entering the correct one.

Z
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] RD1945:
You have to disable PIN in Windows Mobile or else it won't work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] butterdori:
Very exciting stuff!

Though I have to say, the 0907 seems to be more stable than 0909 (perhaps because it has less stuff in it?)

For one, I cannot access the settings on the 0909 build

DIAM100 by the way
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
Only problem with the latest one I have is the poor battery life. Everything else works great! Not gonna take long until I run android 24/7. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fwonz:
Newest version of connect-utb works not for me (diam300 o2 branded) with new zimage (laggy touchscreen + behaviour).

With old zimage the build 0909 of utb works.

3G is still not working for me. Have to try it with GPRS(only) enabled in WM. Hopefully this will lead me to a working data connection.

Looking forward to a working version for my diam300 with 3g and better Power Management :>

But so far.. good work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
I found a way to get the resolution allright (instead of 640x480)

(

Add this in set cmdline in startup.txt:

mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480 lcd.density=240

I like it that way.

Battery has random drops, which causes the device to shutdown. The application is very stable, connectu-utb's android-diamond-20090807-BETA.rar is what I talk about.

Had it on for 16 hours, emailing, chatting, browsing. It was connected to power, and gets quite warm the whole time, but it works like a charm.

Anyone an idea about those winmo softkeys appearing? Is HAret unloading windows allright ánd can it be the reason of stableness?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] slovoflud:
is it not like that by Default? :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] MrPippy:
WiFi!

I finally got all the WiFi pieces together, and loaded it successfully on my DIAM500 :) Google Maps was even able to guess my location correctly within 200 meters :eek: Hopefully builds with WiFi should be coming soon
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] c4software:
Oh my god, The WiFi works with the lastest Kernel ? Or you have add some piece of code to have an working driver ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] slovoflud:
UUhuuuu!! :))

Well, I guess my XMAS present to myself, namely - HERO, will stay in the shop... ;) :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] FoxDesign:
NICE JOB!

I don't want WM6.5 on my diamond! i want Android!!!

it's 2nd life for the diamonds

I look forward a fully worked release!

(sorry for my english)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Riel:
Not with all packages here I saw.

Great, the wifi! It goes fast now.

My main concern would be the powermanagement (and the heating of the device, don't you have that?) So the drop-outs will be gone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TaC:
great news, MrPippy. Good job.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] wrsg:
with the 090909 build (both the connect-utb and the one that someone put on megaupload) i get a performance degradation. its laggy as WM now :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cr2:
now we need to fix the GPS cid problem, and find out the reason for

the BT irq flood.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] butterdori:
Amazing........... truly incredible

Consider what's been achieved in the past 7 days... GPU, audio, microphone, GPRS and now Wifi?

What do we have left now that is vital? Perhaps better power management and stability?

GPS, accelerometer, camera and radio can probably wait..

This is soooooooo exciting:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] flymanj:
Do we have already a PC synchonization? I noticed that it is possible to sync it with google, but I do need to make it with my PC.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] FrAsErTaG:
Wow I cant believe the progress thats being made, its flying along.

Im not going to ask if there is going to be a native loader because I know there is much to do before that kinda thing will be looked at.

But what I am wondering is how naked can my WM rom be? Ive been running 6.5 with all the android tests, is it possible to run on WM 6.1?

Im thinking a basic WM 6.1 rom ultra light with haret loading on start up would be cool.

Any thoughts?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stefand:
I also have this problem, but when I boot with usb connected the performance is normal again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cr2:
GPS has an rpc communication problem, accelerometer driver works since ages, camera needs the rpc clock setup, and FM radio will work once BT uart will not crash the kernel irq handling.
