To do

* Finish GPS (tracking/velocity/compass direction)

* Fix bluetooth

* Fix MMS

* Fix speakerphone, call volume, and mic for apps

* Fix SMS for longer than 160 chars

I've just fixed this by writing libaudio and making some kernel changes. Get the 23-07-09 files from google code to try it. I'm not sure if the system image I uploaded is up to date (vilord, just remove libaudio.so and libaudioflinger.so from yours to make it work). Speakerphone should work, as should in call and speakerphone volume control. This isn't completely tested and is quite a big change to the audio system, so there may well be something that doesn't work now.

libaudio source is here:

http://github.com/dzo/VogueAudio/tree/master

(must be built using mm TARGET_PRODUCT=htc_dream)

Speaker option for calls

Thank you for your replies. I searched this thread and didn't look at the project page.

Thanks for your help.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] craig0r:
Sweet. Shazam's working, speakerphone's working, google voice search is working, and this is surely an integral requirement to A2DP working once bluetooth is implemented. Once again, thanks Martin!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
I'm just building and testing with DZO's latest work. If all goes well I'll post my updated system.img in an hour or so.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] omgwtfbbqkthxbai:
wow, awesome!

i've been silently following this project since january or february, and i finally had to express my thanks. although wm6.5 was somewhat of an improvement to wm6.1, it's nice to have a truly modern mobile OS on my hip rather than the stock schlock USCC provided. i never expected gps to work, voice to work, i never have really expected much of anything to work (and initially it didn't). but, nevertheless, here i am today, friggin' asking my phone where the nearest pizza joint is, and not only does it know where i am (thanks!!), but it also knows what i'm asking (thanks!!!)

really looking forward to yr hero build mssmison, regardless of how fully enabled it is. the review on engadget says that not even the hero can really run hero, so i understand.

thanks again and best all! :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Ok I'm currently uploading my 'hero skinned' build to the google page. Bare in mind it's only a skin, but it's amazing. As a Disclaimer** you MUST remove all home screen widgets and icons for the first time you boot my system.img or you will get stuck in a boot loop. And you resolution must be set to 320x480 for music to work properly. After you've booted the first time you can add back whatever ones you like.

Includes; all gps/audio/camera updates, HTC music app and google music, in case you like the old one better. Latest screen alignment app, and all my previous stuff I was including.

I'm going to be honest, I don't think the actual hero/sense ui is going to be coming for a while. There are kernel changes that need to be made. I have no intention of rushing DZO on them. If anyone else wants to take a stab at it than go right ahead. I'm really really happy with my build as it stands. I use it every day and have never had a force close or slowdown.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
Probably a stupid question, and I think I have already read the answer to this, but with a Verizon Vogue, you need to unlock GPS with another custom rom and then use Android in order for it to work in Android correct? Or does Android serve to unlock the GPS if your going straight to it from the stock Verizon rom.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
yes, you've got to unlock GPS in winmo first. it isn't just a matter of loading a custom rom, there is more to it.

I wonder... verizon released an unlocked GPS rom for their touch pro... i'm curious if it outputs clean NMEA data, whether we could use the gps firmware from that in our vogues... similar chipset...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
Yeah, I need to go through that whole process at some point I guess, also I posted a question in the help thread but this seems to get more attention.

"I have Android installed on my Verizon Touch and everything seems to be working nicely. No issues with apps or anything, but when I use the End key in order to put the phone into sleep mode. That works, but sometimes the phone will not wake when I hit the power button, it just stays in sleep.

If it matters, I am using all of the most recent files from the Google Code page. Just downloaded the files yesterday.

I know this was discussed in other threads, but I couldn't seem to find a resolution. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance."

Also, the work done on this project is awesome.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Whoops, sorry guys I accidentally overwrote vilords system.img he had posted. I've deleted the file and I'm re uploading my system.img renamed to mssmisonsystem.img
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
you could try holding down the power button or holding down the middle of the dpad for a few seconds.

What sleep mode do you have in default.txt?

When it won't wake up, are there any LED's flashing?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
I have tried holding down all the buttons to no avail.

I have it at 0, which I assume is default since I never changed it, could that be the issue?

There is no LED flashing, maybe an occasional green light, but nothing consistent to speak of.

Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
so wait which do I download? I want the new audio files but want your hero skin as well. Does your system.img include those new files yet or no? I can do without them just curious to know whats in what file
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aross6:
What do you mean "It currently does not work on a fresh data.img file"? Do you mean delete any current data.img file and let it build a new one on first boot or can I use my existing data.img file with the Hero themed System.img?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
mssmison's file, once he gets it uploaded, will include all the latest. So both system images on the downloads will have the latest. Only thing that won't have the latest is in the bundle (until i update it tonight)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
he means you *can't* delete your data.img and let it create a new one, it will crash on bootup.

mssmison, is this based on thedude, or is it something of your own creation?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] margosmark:
Alli got to say is wow, amazing!

On a side note i am not sure if this is related to your img or the other new releases as i sorta just did it all together. Wen i push the end button to put it in sleep mode, it very slowly fades to black, like you can see the steps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
thanks you guys are the best, because of android I bought another new HTC Touch last week and havnt been happier since I started to use android 1.1 a few months back. Everyone wants to buy my cell even people with the touch pro and people with the better Fuze. Love that they got phone envy, now just crossing my fingers for the CDMA Hero =] We have the best android phone imo since using my friends G1 and the Dream everyone who has those phones loves the touch with its small form and no chin lol

thanks for making my cell a hell of alot better
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
I changed the sleep mode to 3, but it still would not wake up. I'm going to try the others now.

EDIT: None of the modes seem to remedy the issue.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ~David:
I just cleared my card and re-downloaded all of the latest files from Google Code, but I can't seem to find the Calibration tool anymore.

Was it removed or moved elsewhere?

The screen is unusable without it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Sorry, my bad, that's srwalters older files before he fixed brightness. Doesn't really bother me though..
[Touch CDMA Android Development] browningj:
Just tried the new stuff (not msmissions system.img, maybe next) and ITS FREAKIN' SWEET!! You guys rock and thanks a million!!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aross6:
Lovin' all the new features... THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for getting Speakerphone working!!! I am running mssmison's hero skinned build and can't get over how sweet the interface is too!

Thanks to all... your work is much appreciated!!!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cointelbro:
how did you do the skin? is this stuff ripped from the leaked Hero builds?

it's AMAZING!

Slot Cycle Index

Hey Guys,

so i've noticed that sprint phones [when someone is trying to call me] their phone may ring a few times before my phone will start ringing..

and that there is a setting called the slot cycle index that is a changable paramater.

The larger the number the longer the delay between "checks" the phone makes to see if there is an incoming call.( Also i guess better battery life.)... and the there is more likely a delay before the cell phone will start ringing

The smaller the number the smaller the delay between "checks" the phone makes to see if there is an incoming call.( Also i guess worse battery life.)... and the there is less likely a delay before the cell phone will start ringing

I know this is changeable with the MSL on the Winmo side... with this change carry over to the android side, or is this something that is already hard coded into the android side?

Thanks,

Ox
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
Having slow fade in, and slow fade out. So slow, it is hard for me to unlock the phone prior to it starting fade back out. When I manage to unlock it, looks great! Thanks a bunch, would be great if this could be fixed, wonderful work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
slot cycle index is a setting in the radio. Since we don't have any android-based tools to configure the radio, you'll have to make the change in winmo first with the MSL. The change will be saved across reboots, flashes, and will work equally in winmo and in android.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] theelite:
wow this new build is awesome, the android htc music player looks pretty badass now with the coverflow type effect.

I am having problems with the htc music app though I get force close errors if I try to go to the library.

also camera button isn't mapped anymore?

using msmissions system.img
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cointelbro:
can you post just the music player apk? i'm going back to the stock system.img until some of the little quirks get worked out
[Touch CDMA Android Development] prodigy2m:
SWEEEEEET

Alright, really awesome theme with the latest update makes this phone outstanding... Keep it up, you guys ROCK!!!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
I'm not experiencing it being that slow... not even close. It's just slow enough I can see it happening instead of it just going off. It doen't effect my performance at all.. There must be something else slowing you down.. A widget perhaps? I'll updated srwalters lights file later which should fix the issue.

If your resolution is not set to 320x480 this will happen. One reported pre tester (thanks derek) said after he rebooted that issue went away with the 320x480 resolution.

I cannot post just the apk because there are more files required sorry.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] theelite:
indeed, I just set my resolution height to 480 and now the music player works correctly.

a shame this doesn't work with the standard resolution, but thanks for the tip.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cointelbro:
how are you adjusting the resolution?

also, i find that setting the lcd.density to 148 fixes most of the graphics anomalies without shrinking everything to the point of no return on the default system.img v:)v
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
You change the values for resolution in the default.txt file before you boot Android.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
how do i change the lcd density? i changed the resolution but not the lcd density, is that part of the default.txt?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] theelite:
yeah the line in the default.txt, set mine to..though it squishes the screen.

mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
haha already did that, i thaught that was the resolution not the density. I love how it looks, the other density cut my screens short. Its funny how people complain (not pointing anyone out) when we are gettin support on something our phone shouldnt have. I cant tell u guys how many times ive been asked to sell my phone and its from people with 'better' phones. One of my homies even offered to trade me his iphone 3g i laughed and said I dnt want a downgrade.

Thanks alot for all the support and quick responses to my questions, cant keep saying enough how much u guys rock
[Touch CDMA Android Development] natefish:
I'm still kind of a noob at running 1.5 on my vogue. Why does the battery drain faster than when running WM? Any tips?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
kill ur data sync, brightness, and all useless crap like you did for WINMO. I love the battery life on this android
[Touch CDMA Android Development] theelite:
yeah what i posted was the resolution, change the density by adding this parameter between the quotes at the end of the text file somewhere.

lcd.density=123
[Touch CDMA Android Development] d1rtyd33z:
much faster

I just killed my data store and re-installed from scratch using the latest files from the site and it is running MUCH faster. You guys rock! The lag time switching back to the home screen is GONE. I've only been running it for about 24hrs, so this may just be a side effect of having a clean install. We'll see as time progresses but I just wanted to give ya'll a shout to show my appreciation.

AWESOME!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
gotcha, ill add that change when i reboot again, thanks for the help!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crono999:
I have loaded all the latest files:

mssmisonsystem.img

initrd-23-07-09.gz

zImage-23-07-09

Few issues I've noticed that I didn't see mentioned:

-Holding the camera button and pushing 'left' rotates the screen to landscape, but will not rotate back to portrait. I can get it to go back eventually by repeatedly hitting the button combination and putting the phone to sleep and waking it up

-Attempting to use the voice search feature causes phone to reboot, rather than just bring up an error message

Hope these observations help in some way. Otherwise, AMAZING job and thanks again.

Sprint phone does not ring with Excellent! Hero Skin

This new Hero Skin is just amazing!! I hate to go back to WinMo but I have no choice since my phone does not ring at all while caller can hear it ringing...

Please, can someone help?? and/or other Sprint users post their experiences.... I rebooted couple of times, re-built data.img with all new files... still same problem...:mad:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] refthemc:
That would be quite a breakthrough in the Verizon Vogue world if this happens
[Touch CDMA Android Development] refthemc:
So what is everyone using for their Width, Height, and Density resolutions now? and i remember Tatnai saying if we use any density lower than 160 that google maps will not function correctly or something like that, correct me if i'm wrong.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] prairiefire:
I am getting a few resets of the phone myself when playing around with the audio. I have installed the latest zImage, system.img, initrd.gz (from 23_07_2009).

The first phone reset was when i tried to use voice search. after booting up android again, I tried voice search and it worked (which was awesome btw). Then I called my phone number from another phone (phone was on vibrate and i switched it to volume on by holding the camera button and pressing volume up a couple of times). The phone then restarted. Couldn't replicate this though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Glad you like it. You LOVE this.

I'm currently uploading an updated build. This new build overcomes the need for a previous data file, updated srwalters lights file I missed so it will be smooth and.... ready for this..... An all new launcher. You can now hide items from your applications drawer by holding down on them and dragging them to the trash, as well you can select how many home screens you want (2 to 10) and which one you want default. When you press menu while on home screen you'll see there's a new option called 'extended' where you select to see your hidden applications, and set your home screen settings.

Launcher credits to rogro82 :)

Uploading to google code, should be done pretty soon..
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
You rock, this build is awesome. There are some notable updates to google maps, works even better now. Just so many sweet changes, too numerous to mention.

Speakerphone: have only tried with new hero theme, but my microphone does not work when I have speakerphone enabled - I can hear them, they can't hear me.

Going to dump my data, start fresh, and try again. Strong work, this is awesome! Thx DZO for the audio updates.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] refthemc:
Having a problem with switching screen back to portrait once in landscape mode with msmissions image. I'll delete my data and start new once msmission uploads his newest image and see if that fixes it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
If that happens just open messaging and go back home. It happens every now and then with every build I try.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
May be a naive question...

Will features of libaudio work (given in zImage and initrd) w/ msmission's system file? Or are they in the system23-07-09 file?

Pl enlighten...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
They work great in mine too. That's what the post said anyways... lol..

It's up now. Enjoy everyone..
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jaredakelly:
messing around with the new msmission build, looks awesome!

however i just tried to use the voice dialer and it didn't give an error message it just instantly rebooted.....:confused:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
So I jumped in and tried it out. Excellent build mssmison. It feels very snappy all around and looks rather nice.

I prefer having a flat status bar at the top (solid color, no web 2.0 effects, etc.) since I find that it gets in the way of understanding the icons/messages, but that's just my preference. I like things simple.

I tried hiding some applications as per the given directions, but they don't actually go away for me. When I check the extended drawer, those programs appear in the list as if the operation went through correctly but if I go back to the application drawer, they are still there. I haven't tried rebooting the phone, so this is just a quick heads up.

Also, I started off with a fresh data.img.

Other than that, the first boot takes quite a while so just be patient everyone.

Edit: A reboot fixes this issue. Hiding applications works without subsequent reboots.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
I just read this and decided to give it a shot. Got the exact same result. Reboot.

Edit: Just tried it again after a reboot, got the same result. Reboot again. Seems like a reboot does not resolve this problem.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
Just verified this too. The mic is a no go, it seems.

Edit: Just tried the ion image and found the same thing. Again, haven't tried a reboot yet (just posting as I find it).

calibration setting

fyi, i just got a replacement phone and i had copied over my last calibration settings...

on my old phone i spent about 30 min honing it in...

and the old settings were PERFECT as well on the new phone so just incase anyone is having trouble with their calibration setting this worked 100% on 2 different phones

i have sprint

vogue-ts.XMIN=431 vogue-ts.YMIN=399 vogue-ts.XMAX=3727 vogue-ts.YMAX=3775

to verify launch dev tools->pointer location

[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
Yes, like I said, there are still problems with audio in. I'm working on it though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] refthemc:
Your awesome Dzo
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
Oh, I thought I had read that you got it working. Sorry about that.

Definitely looking forward to it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I've uploaded a new kernel, this should fix the mic with speakerphone and the voice dial reboot. The sound system is a tangled mess, so I wouldn't be surprised if something else is broken now though.

To test audio record, create a new sms message, press menu, select attach and then record audio.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
Dude, you're a beast! You all need a couple of beers - donating now. Will test.

mssmision, the first build you put up had a six-wide launcher; is it possible to have both the extended dock feature AND the 6-wide launcher?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
hmm I'll look into editing the xml..

I'm glad you guys are liking the build.. I know there are some issues with the launcher but it's a feature I've been wanting for a while.. I'll update as it's developed more.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] KERKEDAGAIN:
Ok..tested the new kernel and initial actions are a no-go. I was using an app called Voice Text which worked almost flawlessly on the previous kernel..now I get an error...nevermind..i restarted the phone and all is well. Speakerphone works grandificently..voice dialer doesnt quite carry out my commands very well, but it recognizes the audio in. As always: BOSSS JOB!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Thomas1218:
Screen Rotation

In the new hero build i cant get the screen to rotate back to portrait mode. you can rotate it to landscape with the camera and left button but those buttons dont work to rotate it back
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fireshaper:
I found that if you open another app, like the dialer app or contacts, and then press camera + left it will switch back the way it is supposed to be. It's a workaround until the fix is released anyway.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
k, I found the cause. Sorry it's not something I've looked into before, I never rotate.

It's just the keymap. I'll try and fix it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
Speakerphone, voice search, and voice dial all working perfectly for me.

EDIT: so google maps on mssmision system.img is an older 3.0 version, but it seems to function a little bit better than the latest 3.1.1 was working with the previous system.img; no funkyness with GPS going in and out as you use other functions like changing map mode or searching or pulling directions, only shuts off when you pull up lattitude.

Besides the new HTC music, Quickoffice and PDF viewer will work in 320x480 and not 320x428.

Looks like a new system.img up, is that you vilrod?

EDIT2: ok, in the name of all things new, i updated my mssmison google maps 3.0 to 3.1.2. seemed pretty similar to 3.1.1. Still turns GPS off when you go into directions, search, etc. despite all the little advances of the 3.1.x series, I think it's more convenient for me to have the GPS remain locked while getting directions and so on; i've rolled back to 3.0 and will wait to see if this gets fixed in the next release.
