i think porting the android hero rom would be even more badasssss

waiting so patiently for my touch pro 2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jutley:
ok so all those android developes the hero rom it shall be. Its final soon as the hero is released get ready with your aprons on and get cooking make us all proud be all heros.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] vasra:
HTC Hero with the same RAM/ROM/CPU as TP2 just got announced today as an Android phone with HTC's own touch UI additions.

http://www.intomobile.com/2009/06/2...ra-teflon-coating-coming-out-late-summer.html

Once this hits the wild and ROM hackers get on it, I think there might be further advances on Android on TP2.

BTW, check out the video. Full featured Android is not (yet), but it does look cool.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Drane:
The hero doesn't have the same screen, and that is (it think) a major problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] lhwparis:
think the screen is not the problem. android is concepted to work withe different screen sices
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Drane:
I've seend video's of the touch HD on youtube where it appears that the menu had problems displaying contents while opening. (in opened and closed states it looked normal) Also third party apps will mostly be designed for standard screen size I guess even though Android itself might be capable.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] vasra:
Not completely related, but HTC has apparently announced that the HTC Sense UI on their Hero Android phone will be coming to future HTC WM mobiles:

http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=5239

A nice alternative to Touch Flo 3D perhaps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Drane:
:eek:

:mad:

They'd better release an Android driven Touch Pro2! :cool:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] monx®:
Geniuses, pls port the Hero's Androids for our Rhodium. Dualboot is awesome. But I can see Hero hv multi-touch support. not a big deal, either it can boot with Rhodium or I have to fasting for another few months (to save money actually :p)to get this green robot driven gagdet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jhiciano:
This would be kick a$$ if it could be ported over
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tmotp2jc:
Hero Kernel released

The HTC Hero kernel was released by HTC yesterday. I'm no where near able in skill to do a port, just thought I might let the developers know if they didn't already.

Link here
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] EGOvoruhk:
Someone should set up a bounty. If someone made a nice native Hero ROM, I'd pay some cash :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aragonath:
hey guys...

any news from porting?:(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] BoostedSR20:
Yeah I would also pay for a good working Droid ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wabbits:
i would love to see a droid port on this device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fiber:
So, donation is not a problem, I think a lot of people would donate for a working Android port.

Now we only need someone who has the skills to do it, and wants to spend time on porting.. ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Zack84a:
There is some work going on in the Topaz thread that will hopefully get us up in running eventually.

I'd definitely pay for a good Android build. can't wait!!! I hope someone with the necessary skills can work on a port!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jhiciano:
Same here im deff. willing to donate for something like this
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] austinite007:
I would like to see this too. It would save me a bundle if I could keep my windows mobile phone but enjoy Android on it. However, I am guessing that it is not likely that we will see Android being widely ported by other developers until Windows Mobile starts showing up on capacitive touch screen devices. I know that there already some devices that are under development and work successfully with android ported but in my experience those ports have been limited in how much they can do. Its all only a matter of time before this finally starts really taking off.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
Except for the fact that the Dream and the Magic are resistive....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] toubeau:
clearly capacitive sorry....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
Nah he was saying that he doesn't see it happening till Android shows up on capacitive devices. When really, it is fully compatible with both capacitive and resistive. The Dream and the Magic are both resistive and the Hero is capacitive. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Robes1:
WOW!!!

This would be a DREAM!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cr2:
What do you mean by porting ?

There are 2 separate tasks: to make the linux kernel support all the hardware with right userspace interfaces and messing with android itself.

The first one is being worked on, and an android image should be the same for all msm7201A phones, whether you use raph/diam, blackstone or rhodium/topaz.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] imperiallight:
Android ION build for the tytn 2 is full as far as I can make out. Marketplace, wifi everything. Its making me think about selling my pro2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] xr7kid:
I'm in for $50 to whoever gets this working. Infact, if everyone who voted yes put in a dollae tgst would make a huge bounty!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] naplesbill:
That is incorrect. All three of the Android phones you just listed are capacitive.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chasy:
i think when the kernel is fully compatible (look@ tux who is working on it ; blackstone forum) there's also gonna be a release for the rhodium!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aragonath:
to be honest, im a newbie, and i dont exactly know what ure talkin about... i just wanted to know when i can have android on rhodium... and i asked in this topic a while ago, that if its possible, nobody answered me, but by reading other posts i thought its possible.

anyway

thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] xr7kid:
The Tattoo is an Andriid phone with resistive screen. So there's one theoretical problem solved. Seems all the pieces are there, just spread out over various phones. I have my fingers crossed they can all be put together!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
I stand corrected. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] poppinpengawen:
it can all definitely be put together. many talented people are working on it. it's just a matter of everyone being patient.

hey there, whats so great with android though? is it that much better from winmo?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mavpro:
Yes, it really is. I got a Hero yesterday, and believe me...it's faaaar better than any Winmo:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mavpro:
Is it now possible for us to get Android running on the Touch Pro 2? If so, how do I do that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tmotp2jc:
As poppin said (4 posts and 4 hours before yours), the chef's are working on it, be patient. I'm sure you'll see the post on here when it's available.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] biscuits1978:
There will be much rejoicing. I used the Android port on Kaiser, and I miss it. Android on a WVGA screen? That would get me harder than a diamond in an ice storm.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] BoostedSR20:
I've been using WinMo since the earliest pocket PC days, I can't imagine using anything else. That being said, after using the G1 (yes, a poopy device with an older version of android) I'm ready to make the switch. As soon as HTC releases a device like the TP2 with android, I'm on it.

I would also pay $$$ for a good working droid ROM for the TP2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] EGOvoruhk:
The biggest thing I love about it, is the support will be there. Google will keep providing the source, so as long as there are still people making Android ROMs, we'll keep having updated phones

As for WinMo, we're pretty much done with 6.5.1. 7's list of requirements are too beefy for our phone
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] secretasianmanjv:
Has anyone tried the SPB Shell? If you don't know what I'm referring to here is a link. http://pocketnow.com/software-1/get-sense-ui-on-windows-mobile It looks pretty neat.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
While that will be the case, the phones are all starting to move to Snapdragon, Tegra and Omap Cortex A9. So, that is really a moot point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] EGOvoruhk:
This is the Rhodium forum, is it not? It doesn't have Snapdragon, Tegra, or an A9 processor, so no, it's not a moot point. The Rhodium/Touch Pro 2 will not be enough for WinMo 7. It is, however, enough for Android
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] patzkata:
I like that ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] patzkata:
there is an update for SPB Shell V3.5

http://www.mobilecustom.fr/forum/index.php/topic,2174.0.html

I've try it in my TP2 with WM6.5 WWE Stock rom and its amazing fast and cool

but still no Landscape support in that option too :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
Thank you, Captain Obvious. I was unaware that this was the Rhodium forum.

It is a moot point, because by the time WM7 is released, a good number of us will be buying a phone within a year of its release since we will qualify for an upgrade.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] yniakis:
This is exciting, I was thinking of selling my TP2 and just buy an unlocked Android phone but I guess will just wait for this. Thnks guys.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] l3it3r:
There is landscape support in SPB MS 3.5. 100% sure of it as I've been using it for a long time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] l3it3r:
I would be up for a large monetary donation for an Android ROM. Not haret, but actual booting, fully functional Android 2.0 ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
I think what you mean is a proper bootloader that will boot Linux. Something I would be willing to donate for also. I posted a thread in dev/hacking, but it got no real attention.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] socialenemy2007:
dude

I totally solved the problem. returned the tp2 for an htc magic :P no keyboard but whatevs. way better apps and bigger selection. Widgets ftw!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] EGOvoruhk:
Yeah....... no. My point was about the Rhodium, not any other phone. Hence when I said "too beefy for our phone"

So no, it's still not a moot point. What exactly did you think my point was, that Microsoft wouldn't come out with another OS? Obviously they're making WinMo 7, and it's obviously going to come out on a new phone

You completely missed my point, made up one of your own, and called it moot
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] trentmaynard:
sorry

I don't mean to butt in on some one else's conversation, but I'd rather donate to have android on my touch pro2 then to buy yet another phone with windows mobile 7. its not even an issue of contract with me. I switch phones every year. the thing is the touch pro2 is a really nice piece of hardware. and if it were to run android i think for once might keep the same phone for more then year. the only thing i like about the software now is the sense ui but that was htc's doing not microsoft. what is it gonna take to get this thing off the ground?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] socialenemy2007:
honestly if you get a new one every year, get the moto droid from verizon. same style as tp2, and comes with android 2.0. better screen too. multi-touch capacitive and releases in november.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] l3it3r:
November 6th to be exact, but I'll never buy ANYTHING from motorola ever again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] socialenemy2007:
ya I heard that. but if you REALLY want android on a tp2 style phone, then its a safe bet. plus their network is better than tMO or sprint.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] notoriouslee:
Hurry up ppl...i"ll pay for tis **** to happen if i have to...cmon!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] bmore1380:
i understand they are working on it and what not buy how long does it really take feel me couple of WVGA kernels have come out and they pay more attention to the touch pro 2 and diamond people here are willing to donate for this but yet they taking to long its gonna forever till this android port releases
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Zack84a:
Right now, we don't have any of the main android devs on the topaz and rhodium... This means unless someone was to step up, it will be slow. cr2 has been helping in the topaz forum, but he is doing it a bit blindly... he changes something, we post new logs, and he tweaks again. Right now the goal is to get it just to boot. Though similar devices are already booting, the minor differences in hardware are what make this difficult to port.

Timeframe? Who knows... its going to be a while.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] EGOvoruhk:
Who are the main Android devs? Maybe we can we start a donation pool to get them a Rhodium :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] chasy:
they got pretty far on the blackstone .. and when i remember it right, both devices , the tp2 and the blackstone are using the same chipset, aren't they?

so when they got the basics working over there .. a port to rhodium won't ne unlikely!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cr2:
And the same as on raphael/diamond/g1/g2/etc. too, and your android image is more

or less the same as for raphael/diamond. So what ?

Even topaz and rhodium have lowlevel differences,

and their difference to blackstone is much bigger than

between blackstone and raphael/diamond.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Anon9mouz:
Well I read every single post and from what i can tell it will be a wait game guys everyone just relax there will be a port but people dont think like these dev and everyone else have personal lives and ****s kinda hard sometimes even with money. Me personaly ill wait thats no problem im enjoying the stock rom right now really i get to enjoy the tf3d2 for a lil while but yes i would like android but its time peoples time. So for the respect plz give it to them they r try as hard as they can along with other things they are doin so yeah. I do see it happening so just time thats all and if ne one wants to take it personal sorrie just speaking for the people in my case thats all:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] poppinpengawen:
yes, it is indeed a waiting game. and cmon, those of you who are getting upset and impatient, there are a lot of ROMs that you can flash onto your phones to hold you over until a stable and working Android port is finished. that's what I'm doing :D

just be patient..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
The people that are trying to get it working are still having issues with it booting. I have been trying to help as much as I can, but unfortunately, I can't code. So I am only pretty much a tester at this point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cr2:
Can you test the rhod*.exe at http://android.ppckitchen.org

and look at the ramconsole output at 0x8e0000 ?

pwf rhodramconsole 0x8e0000 0x20000
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] biscuits1978:
cr2 - when I execute the rhod100-20091102-2.exe file, HaRET loads and it goes to a text dump similar to Linux booting up. Is there something in particular you are wanting from this screen? It stops at:

console handover: boot [htc_fb-1] -> real [tty0]
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gtsili:
I got the same result. I have tried to connect using the haretconsole but the phone will not accept the telnet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
Got the dump. Uploading now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rawker:
cdma dumps?

would you want come cdma touch pro 2 dumps, ive been looking into how to do it, i might be able to get some.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
They will help. cr2 has determined that the RHOD210 (TMOUS TP2) has slight differences from the RHOD100. As such, he has had to do some different testing to advance the development. So, if doing this with all the different provider's units, it would bring out the differences to further development.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] l3it3r:
let me know what to do for the ATT one and I'll do what I can.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gsmtmofan:
How did yours even get to that point? I have tried this so many times, even on a fresh boot, and mine hangs in the middle of the haret initial execution. How do you get a text dump. That may be a very noob question and I apologize, but I will do any testing needed to get android on this beautiful piece of hardware.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gtsili:
I went through the "Google Android For Topaz" thread and found out that the procedure is to run the linux kernel cr2 has provided at http://android.ppckitchen.org/ and then after a soft reset, run haret, connect using haretconsole and issue the commands. I have downloaded rhod100-20091104-5.exe from the site and did so giving the following command when I got connected to haret:

pwf rhodramconsole 0x8e0000 0x20000
pwf rhod_smem 0x01f00000 0x100000
pwf rhod_dmesg 0x16f00000 0x100000

This produced 3 files: rhod_dmesg, rhodramconsole and rhod_smem on the same folder as haret. I am attaching those files to this post just in case cr2 wants them. I should also note that with this kernel after the boot messages and the 2 jolts, I got a white screen. So cr2 has managed to get a bit further in the boot process. This is very exciting!!! Thank you cr2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] biscuits1978:
I just ran the .exe file from the URL provided by cr2, that's all. As far as the hanging on the initial execution, are you talking about the text screen where it shows a bunch of lines starting with time stamps? That's where I got that item. I didn't do a copy/paste, just looked at my phone and typed it verbatim.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gehzumteufel:
You can avoid that by just creating a "startup.txt" on your sd card and putting those commands in. Once it boots, wait about 30 seconds for it to do the dump, reset, and from within WM run haret.exe. This will put the dumps on the sd card. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cr2:
Yes, there is a bug in the SMD channel layout detection which crashes RHOD kernel early, so you don't see any output. For some reason it does not

affect topaz. I'll try to write the fix now.

i follow the steps from topaz post, but I have a trouble with starting the "haret.exe" .. error msg appear: "Unknown keyword: 'rhod100' "

so I couldnt attach any dump files. I don't know the other people how do that.

but I'm the LOG file generates after "rhod100-20091109-1.exe" start...

I hope that also can help you..

just keep going. I'll do anything to help.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gsmtmofan:
Woohoo, this is so exciting. It actually runs the linux kernel script and vibrates. So close. Im so excited. cr2 you are the man
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cr2:
No, that's why i'm asking you to test the kernels.

Neither rhodium, nor topaz or leo. only raph100, and the older devices

like athena.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] biscuits1978:
Yeah - mine runs the script, vibrates, and then gets a blank white screen. I'm assuming this is the spot where the GUI starts loading, right?

This is awesome!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fiber:
Maybe we can all donate so cr2 can get a Rhodium to test? :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cyw00d:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rosebud:
I would donate, CR2, would having remote access to my rhodium help if i got you onto one of my computers? (dont know how helpful that would be)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cyw00d:
I can do the same, put MyMobiler on my phone and give you teamviewer access to my notebook or so. :)

wow it's really exciting to see some progress!

thank you very much for your work cr2 !
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rosebud:
I think that mymobiler would stop running as soon as you load Haret
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cyw00d:
Don't think so. Windows Mobile + the apps are still running in the background.
