Yeah, even I'm suprised at the low level of excitement of porting this to all devices. Hoping for some real development :). Btw, those videos are pretty impressive.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tizonly1:
Yeah... I'm a little surprised too.

I have a Vogue now, so I'm OK, but I'd love to see somebody pick this project up for the Touch Pro. It seems to be very similar to the G1, so the porting would be a lot more complete than the porting to the Vogue.

Hopefully somebody with the skills (read: not me) will undertake this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ramontrotman:
it'll pick up. i say in 6 months to a year people will snap out of the apple app dev craze. but from a dev point of view, apple is where its at right now. the amount of money you could make is a driver by all means.

htc will also be a key part in this. when they start to release better looking hardware, perhaps something on par with the diamond....you'll see a user increase. and user increase translate into dev interest. so just hang in there....i think you'll get what you want soon.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
A ppc that works only on 80 Percent ? And no additional Software, no outlook syncronisation? Thats

at the moment

somthing for freaks or people with a second device ;)

If there would be a 100 Percent Android i would install it, believe me, because i´m not very happy with windows anymore.

So i think we must wait and hope.

My next Device in half a year will be hopefully the Touch HD with Android (:rolleyes:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] S.V.I:
because it makes no sense to port androud to a phone that is not 3G with GPS.

the only advantage of the g phone that I saw was the service. 3G and free GPS! i'm like, how much for the puppy in the window?

I honestly think that porting it to my wizard would be senseless.

without the service the gphone is just a phone wothout service.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egzthunder1:
Of course it is always pointless. We do it because we can :D (and because we don't want to do anything while at work)

(and much like bluemetal, we are all tired of the same old look and functionality in our WM devices). Then again, it can always be worse....

we could all have iphones :D

Anyways, I am looking forward to someone porting this to the Blue Angel.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr.incredible:
The bigest stumbling block for me is lack of Exchange support. GPS isn't really necessary with the cell tower triangulation available. The accuracy is getting better. It will never be as tight as GPS but close is good enough for me. I can do with out 3G (I wish I had it) I don't enjoy the experience with the little screen. It's like looking at the ocean through a porthole. A 5 inch screen with much better resolution would be great. I use it for quick info but surfing is not fun.

I do like the idea of going linux on the phone. It would be that much closer to having a truely mobile desktop. We wouldn't have to install resource hogging shells that ride on top of an already bloated today screen to get better customization.

I think the biggest problem overall though is the hardware needed will put a lot of older equipment like my little wizard out to pasture. I don't have the funds to rush out an purchase a new phone. And yes I think all the bugs will need to be shaken out for a while before I take the plunge. Maybe by the 2nd or third generation of Android things will be a little less "bleeding edge". It all looks great now but I rely on my phone too much to gamble on an untried system.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Girvo:
To be completely honest, I too am suprised by the lack of progress.

This is a complete replacement for Windows Mobile: something we've all only dreamed about up until now. It will have a wicked Dev community around it soon enough.

There were a hell of a lot of efforts to get the Beta running. But now... nothing?

*so confused

The worst part is, it'd be gorgeous on my LG KS20, but I doubt we'll see it anytime soon: no one loves us KS20 owners. Guess you were all just jealous of our drivers.

:P
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jakub_w:
i don't know if you read my whole post, but i never said "hey everyone lets run something 80% finished on our ppcs."

waiting and hoping isnt going to do anything, thats why i started this thread. to get more attention instead of sitting and waiting for something we arent sure is going to ever happen.

im glad a lot of other people are on the same page as me, wondering why there is barely any development for this. thanks for the support guys

lets get some devs in here to weigh in on this!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mort:
Well, there's a number of quite simple reasons...

- Porting Android to another device isn't as simple as "Hey, it's Open Source, you just have to compile and install". First of all, you'd need to find a working cross compiler for ARM in the first place (one using Windows' API, like those used for PPC apps isn't much help). Then you'd need to write drivers for usually undocumented hardware with this cross compiler or in ARM assembler (reusing existing WM drivers, like in cooked ROMs, wouldn't work in Linux). Finally, you need to find a way to flash that system to your PPC (that's a bit more work than a patched/cooked variation of an already existing WM ROM), and so on. That's work for the kind of freaks who would do their taxes binary in mind... ;)

- Writing apps for a system almost nobody own so far isn't that attractive. It's even less attractive if the potential developer doesn't own one - the real experience is always a bit different to an emulator, and usually would like some use for himself, too (what good is an mobile app for you if you'd need a laptop with emulator to use it? ;)). So far, there's only one official Android device out there, and aside from the fact it's still a bit "first try, for developers only" (no Outlook sync, ugly design, ...), you only get it in very few parts of the world or in overpriced eBay auctions. Inofficial ports with reduced functionality and maybe buggy or slow "beta" drivers aren't that great, too...

- While the Android API is quite close to common Java style, it's still something completely new, which requires some time to get into the framework's basic style, the available functions, the loopholes and small tricks, etc. With WM, the gap to common Windows (desktop) programming is way smaller, and I guess it's similar with the iPhone and Mac programming.

Or, in other words: Give Andoid some time to grow up. IMHO, G1 and the few existing ports are a playground for hackers and early adopters, so they can get startet with fixing (security holes, missing functionality, ...). Then, in some months, more devices with a "hacker improved" Android will be published, and when developers buy those, they also will start writing apps if they are missing something.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mrnagrom:
you'd think more people would be starting to port.. because god is that g1 terrible, you have to have sharpened pencils for fingers to type on that flush keyboard)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jakub_w:
ok now these reasons make a lot of sense. im just surprised that not as many people are trying to get it started so they can get started on fixing, like you said. but ok, all of your other reasons make complete sense. im sure the future releases of android will only get better.

android just seems like exactly what many of us have been looking for in wm devices, basically, a complete UI replacement endorsed/created by a large company (other than microsoft lol).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mort:
Who knows? AFAIK, the order numbers aren't that bad, and all those reviewers give some feedback, too. I mean, it's only a week since the G1 is available at all, and, as said, it's not very attractive so far. Not everybody wants to spend hundreds of dollars just to provide Google with requests and code changes and T-Mobile and HTC with money...

I don't think the UI is the really big thing about Android. You can even replace it completely, and I don't know (yet) where the limits / design guides are for applications. I just hope it doesn't get as confusing as Linux on the desktop, where even a Gnome or KDE desktop can be modified so far that it's almost as hard to switch distros as switching from Windows to MacOS...

The important things about Android are more in the basic technology, imho, like

- A stable, timeless system core (*nix is older than me, so "modern" is not quite correct - that goes for MacOS X, too, btw...)

- Seamless integration of connection management and phone functions (opposed to WM, where it still acts like a makeshift patchwork, and with every update less APIs are working...)

- Portable application framework (Java, lots of system APIs)

- Simple application installation (no "is this EXE a PC setup or the PPC executable?", "How the hell do I install a CAB file?", ...)

However, I still wonder how/if Andoid will support direct PC synchronization (for shared files, contacts, appointments, music, ...) and how fast and memory consumptive the required Java VM is... (Well, at least none of the G1 reviews I read complained about that, so it seems to be faster than .NET on WM...)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jakub_w:
i was just playing around with android and in the dev tools or api demos theres a section called opengl es. i have a vogue and i tried these, they ran extremely smoothly. isnt this something that everyone has been saying is impossible? (specifically for getting tf3d to run on the vogue) i think this proves that software driven 3d is more than capable of handling tf3d. just a thought.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Soul_Est:
I definitely agree with you on that. Thing is though is that this is a completely different environment with a different set of drivers (and rules) which makes (for example) modifying their parameters to allow for keys normally used for certain functions in WM to be used for something completely different. Also OpenGL (ES) is all that is used on *nix OSes whether or not they run on full or embedded hardware. All that's needed is the driver for the graphics chip. Microsoft wants you to use their proprietary D3D not OpenGL (ES) hence why it was impossible to have OpenGL (ES) before. Also TF3D uses DirectX and not OpenGL ES AFAIK.

Android is great. Only thing I need is a way to get the SDcard image working and a HTC Touch Pro to port Android, Angstrom and/or OpenMoko to, I'd be set. :cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joel2009:
why would you develop software for an operating system that isn't even fully ported yet?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mort:
Weeell....

- It's Linux and Open Source (some people wouldn't touch a closed system with a stick...)

- It's nice to be prepared when you get the running system

- There is a device with that OS

- The documentation is way better than Microsoft's

- There's a good chance the API will remain compatible, so it doesn't hurt to start early (opposed to WM, where some basic features can/could only be done with device dependant or inofficial APIs, which were dropped in newer updates...)

[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
I'm here in the windows directory and I'm playing around with Tasksmgr.exe and I'm wondering if i can change that to launch celetask.
[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
Change the shortcut would be the easy way. If you have no LNK file (since on a BJII its a long press) I would search the reg to find the Tasksmgr value thats called by the long press then change it there.

Or the sneaky way, rename celetask to Tasksmgr and see if that works :)
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
thanks so much, I'll try that right now.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
So did renaming it work at all man? I am just curious.
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
I'm trying to find the reg key first, give me a sec
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
I found this:

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\TaskMgr\

Value Name:

Redirect

Value Data:

:MSTASKMGR

could this be it, I wonder :rolleyes:
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
Or the sneaky way, rename celetask to Tasksmgr and see if that works

Rename the exe file
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
I tried changing the "Task Manager.Ink" to "CeleTask.Ink" and that did not work it just launched the Task Manager
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Think your best bet is waiting for NRG to come online or send him a PM asking for detailed instructions of what you have to do?

Going to be hard for any of us as we wont have the same reg.

Another way is just to set up space to open up CeleTask with SmartToolKit for now untill you get the answer.
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
Thanks Stylez !!! I will
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Thatz cool i trawled the net trying to find the answer with no such sucess..
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
Sounds like you did it backwards from what Bupahs told you. Go to Windows folder and find task manager exe file. Rename it to taskmanagerbackup.exe. Now rename your celetask.exe to taskmanager.exe(make sure its exactly the same as the original was named to start with) and place it in windows. This way when any link goes to open taskmanager, it will open(thinking its taskmanager) the newly renamed celetask(which is now taskmanager.exe). Might need a soft reset for good measure.
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
thanks so much, I'll try it right now, you see ;) I was confused, lol, but I appreciate your advice, thanks
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
So did that work out for you what show said?
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
nope, nothing has worked so far, I'm so :(:mad:
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
That is weird then, are you sure you did what showaco told you to do?
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
Resco Explorer 07 it won't let me rename, taskmgr.exe like showaco suggest, do you know of another way, thanks
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
it says the file is "in Rom" but I remember back in the Palm pilot days, that there was a way to use a file manager to let you edit rom files, I wondering how that can be done here.
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
If your just trying to remap this to celetask, then go in registry here:

\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSTASKMGR\1

Change that to Celetask.exe, if its in windows then thats all you need to enter, if its in program files, then put \Program Files\Celetask.exe

After changing you will have to do a soft reset. I tried that and changed long press of home key to file explorer. I have bj1, not sure if bj2 has it mapped to a key and thats what your trying to change, but if it is then this will work.
[HTC Excalibur] blackjack2:
thanks showaco, I tried that and it points exactly to what you're saying but for some reason it didn't update to celetask.exe, how funny is that ? :)

* Vulkan does not seem to have this issue for now, and it has much less jitter. Some apps like Spotify may still not be fully smooth in certain scrolls, due to a combination of app implementation and AOSP android 12 issues

- Went back to audio HAL v5 to match our prebuilt audio HAL

- Add Camera Go as main Camera

1. Can I install on this rom custom kernel ? ( For example BAALAM based on Android 12?)

2. Where is option to change a navigation bar fuction? Becouse i want changes this for example press long back button too kill app, and press long home to show running app and press square button to show menu.

If there are no such functions then maybe someone could give some command in the terminal to change it

Sorry for my bad english.
