[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] touch of jobo:
I think there is hardly anyone in here anymore who knows how to type 'make'. Besides that, would this require CONFIG_MSM_ADSP or CONFIG_SOUND set in defconfig? Theyre not, neither in htcraphael_defconfig nor in htcraphael_android_defconfig. In htcraphael_android_defconfig, AMSS_VERSION is still 7000. (Did you edit your .config and not bla_defconfig?) Also, Android being Android, there is a chance that it requires some device specific module (like hardware gl, sensors, ..) I have noticed before that, at least for mmc, out sysfs structure is a bit different than what Android expects.

When I make a call, I get very soft white noise from the back speaker, next to the camera. It goes silent when I hang up. Playing media gives nothing.

Will experiment some when I find time and hop on to IRC when I get back to my hotel.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cr2:
yeah, that's true, we should first commit my .config to git ;)

edit: touch of jobo there is a test gps rpc driver in the vogue branch. i have looked at it, and we can reuse several parts of this driver. although, the amss4 api seems to be a bit different from our amss5 ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
There's IRC? :o

EDIT: Hmm... after 3, 4 boots I keep getting android.acore has failed unexpectedly error over and over again... It goes away when I overwrite the tmp folder, but then all settings are lost. :/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fliggygeek:
Ill echo that, but there are a few of us who can do the builds.

Is there a recommended way to set up an automated build server for building the latest android from this branch? I have a server and want to do this.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] GlemSom:
I tried a HTC Magic a few days ago.

iirc the specs of the HTC Magic and HTC Diamond are about the same.

Though, on the HTC Magic android seems to run completly fluently - while the builds for diamond seems to "lag" a bit.

I'm wondering if this is because there's debugging symbols in our diamond builds - or some graphical acceleration missing?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] flx_:
I'm so tired of the inusable wm of my diamond and i just discovered that it's actually androidable.

I've spent the last few hours reading and it seems that only graphics, input and gsm/3g are functional (no sound, wifi, gps) wich has been a huge turndown. Can I get some confirmation on this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] alexios:
That's probably a generic statement about most new *nix users. *sigh*

I'll try compiling a kernel as soon as time allows (probably tomorrow), and try touching the audio devices directly (not via Android).

At least the audio amp is turned on. :) I'd call this progress.

Here's a naïve question (I'd love any corrections to any glaring mistakes): the way I understand it, audio (and most things analogue) is handled by the ARM9. Its ROM is the ‘Radio’ ROM, and we talk to it using shared memory and RPC built on top of it. Do different official versions of the radio ROM alter the APIs enough to cause all this trouble making devices work, or is it something else I'm completely unaware of?

I'm just waiting for a CDMA Android phone bc then I might be able to "upgrade" my DIAM500.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] touch of jobo:
Sorry, that wasn't nice.

There is not much point in that. You'd just be building what we already have. The best thing to do is to build Android from source once (it doesn't change a lot; mostly the tools and kernel projects), or get a set of images already 'out there', clone the kernel git repo, and post diffs/commits of your changes in here.

I got android working with full sound, camera, cdma support, here's the process:

aptitude install android cdma-support sound gps

Well, it is easier than ./configure && make && make install....

Where's this IRC server? If I can contribute, I'll try. Though my driver writing skillz aren't. And it seems like that's the major block right now..

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
I was able to install the Diam500 build on my Diam100 using the default.txt from the generic build. Been working nicely ever since, but it does have the two errors that weren't in the 20090222 build (font size not saving, internal storage not available). Haven't gotten the android.acore process terminating error yet, though, which is nice.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IO ME MEDESIMO:
who is the last update of the porting?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Forever022:
Ok, here are my 2 cents on this topic:

After downloading and trying all the packages none worked on my Fuze (raphael 110)

So anyone with an ATT FUZE (Raphael 110 ) having problems running android here is the solution:

Raphael 100 package doesnt work, neither most of the other ones

the only one that works was found at

http://connect-utb.com/index.php?op...ile&Itemid=68&id=17:android-raphdiam-20090621

its for both raphael and diamond

You have to go extract the package, and go to the folder tmp/boot

and make sure to rename the file default.txt_raphael to default.txt

since there is already another file click on yes to rewrite the file...

(since the default.txt was already there i assumed it had the right parameters, i was wrong)

I also used other packackes with the correct default.txt (right settings for the raphael 110) and they didnt work...

I hope i helped anyone out there like me that was desperate to run android...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] gm112:
How did you get it working? I was never able to get the RAPH110 to boot up on Android. Or, is it really fixed in the newer builds?

Are there any plans on making the whole thing look bigger? It was optimised for HVGA, but now it's running on a screen twice the resolution and same size so everything looks tiiiiiiny.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tienhn:
I just downloaded and tried the above version on my HTC Touch Diamond. It certainly much better than the older versions. But I still have a few questions (may be just because I am a newbee).

Once Android is up and running, how to shut it down gracefully?

My touch screen alignment is way off, so I can not use the touch feature at all. Is there a way to calibrate?

Diam500 running android on 20090622 version

I copy the 20090622 android version to my HTC Diamond touch Diam500 ( canada telus ) to storage/tmp, I can boot the android, but sd card not found, and wifi can not be open. when I see this forum, I changed my default.txt to below:

set mtype 1805

set kernel zImage

set initrd root.cpiogz

set ramsize 0x6000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 init=/init console=tty0 mem=76M msmsdcc_id=-- imgdevname=-- imgdevnum=-- imgdir=/tmp msmts_calib=same as -800"

boot

mkdir /proc

mkdir /sys

mount -t proc proc /proc

mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys

mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /dev

mdev -s

but I can not boot my device to android, I don't know it is correct or not. as the forum said after running the above, do a "ls -l /dev/mmc*". this should have the mmcblk0p? with the correct minor code. and you should be able to mount on that device.

I am a newer, I don't know how to do a "ls -l /dev/mmc*". , should I add "ls -l /dev/mmc*" this sentence after mdev -s?? can some body help to give me the full info for the default.txt.

thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cr2:
I don't know what android needs, but they work for me as standard linux interfaces:

pppd on /dev/smd7 after the connect on /dev/smd0, and /dev/input/event* for the accelerometer.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Tenny:
You don't actually put "same as -800" in it...

You put this in it: 0x81.0x393.0x358.0x7D

So that line would be like:

set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 init=/init console=tty0 mem=76M msmsdcc_id=-- imgdevname=-- imgdevnum=-- imgdir=/tmp msmts_calib=0x81.0x393.0x358.0x7D"

You have the wrong default.txt. What phone do you have?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] amarullz:

set ramaddr 0x10000000
set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 init=/init console=tty0 mem=76M msmsdcc_id=2 imgdevname=/dev/mmcblk0 imgdevnum=0 imgdir=/tmp msmts_calib=0x81.0x393.0x358.0x7D msmvkeyb_toggle=hide"
boot

any idea to fix it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] IceBone:
That is the diam500 default.txt

Try this one, which is for diam100

set mtype 1805
set kernel zImage
set initrd root.cpiogz
set ramsize 0x6000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 init=/init console=tty0 mem=76M imgdevname=/dev/mmcblk0 imgdevnum=0 imgdir=/tmp msmts_calib=0x7a.0x5e.0x35a.0x37f msmvkeyb_toggle=hide"
boot

I had the same issue running the diam500 default.txt on my diam100.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] bizsz:
dear Tenny, I think your phone is same as mine, as the forum said what should I do after running the above, do a "ls -l /dev/mmc*".

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Willis111:
I guess that would be my fault. The instructions listed in the wiki assume you have some working knowledge of linux and know how to do things like file/directory listing ( LS ) and how to mount drives ( mount ) etc. I would also assume that you can do most of those things if you're trying to install an experimental *nix OS.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TR3Y:
This version of Android works great on my Sprint Touch Diamond (CDMA DIAM500), just there is no wireless nor phone part of this version of Android, but the color is fixed. It says that it requires a SIM card, but CDMA doesn't have a SIM card, so, I guess i'll just have to deal with the no service in Android
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TR3Y:
Does anyone know the msmts_calib for a CDMA Touch Diamond (DIAM500)? Kinda tiring setting the screen calibration every time I start Android.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] H3x:
I downloaded the latest DIAM100 build a few days ago and I must say that I'm pretty excited about this project. Kudos to everyone who's been working hard in this.

That being said, one thing thus far is definitely spoiling the Android-experience for me: the high screen resolution with the resulting small graphics. Is there ANY way to decrease the resolution?

I know that this is not seen as high priority, but I feel it should be. The Andriod-platform may eventually be high-resolution (incl. VGA) friendly, but it certainly is not ATM. Not only are apps distorted (and the reality is that many apps are being developed specifically for HVGA), but the very GUI itself is VERY small and unmanageable. For the foreseeable future (esp. in the light of the pending Sense-GUI release) HVGA is the way to go.

I've tried setting "video=xpafb:mode:320x480" in the kernel cmd line parameter in default.txt to no avail. msmfb_probe is still setting the frame buffer to 640x480. Is there a way to modify msmfb itself? I'm not running Linux on my PC so compiling kernels and the like is not very easy for me.

Will someone with the necessary know-how please look into this or point me in the right direction?

EDIT: The Omnia Android project seems to have a correct-resolution version running.

Then the inability to use the framebuffer is the part of the kernel and not haret ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] NetRipper:
Haret also implements a basic framebuffer for its own debugging purposes, but obviously that one doesn't work either.

Once the kernel boots it's more important that the framebuffer driver of the kernel does work, but it doesn't boot far enough to determine whether it works or not - but probably not.

Yep i think its a really big problem, with the acctual resolution Android is not really usable on our device. maybe someone can look the source and find who the screen resolution is set ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sibbor:
We can always increase the font size from within Android. Although we can't change global DPI, which is why icons etc. stays the same. I think the resolution is native to our devices (480x640 pixels) and should stay so. It's the same with the Android port for Omnia, which is also running at native resolution with 240x400 pixels.

I do see the problem, since Android isn't really made for high resolutions screens. I think this will change with time, since there's netbooks developed with Android as "OS".
