waiting on ur hero build mssmison, pls release the lite version atleast today... really really anxious to start using the new system... been using ur hero themed build for quite some time and now android has become my regular daily OS... hardly switch to WinMo now except for copying the latest system image files or some such.. not really a big fan of using dos adb to copy files..:)

but can't wait for the new ROM... is there anyway to save all the customizations which i did until now and all the apps i downloaded ? i read on the htc dream forums that they have a small app to just back up everything to sdcard.. and hopefully with the new image we get some nice full screen dialer... hate the standard android dialer right now..

and if possible, can u please get the app to do button remapping out please, i am really hesitant to use the volume control sooo much as it looks like it might stop working after sometime..
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
posted. not 100% but I couldn't make you guys wait any longer. Check the first page for details.
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
Awesome, can't wait to load this up after work. Anyway to backup my texts and all that since we have to use a new data.img?

Thanks for the effort. Keep it up, much appreciated.
[Touch CDMA General] margosmark:
Do you still need someone with a Grey bell vogue to test anything on this release, let me know
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
You'll enjoy my full build then. The weather app is constantly using alot of ram. Performance was way better when I removed it.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
just so everyone knows, check the first post for updates. I'm re-upping the files, might take a bit they're really big..
[Touch CDMA General] rhorton:
I've been using your themed build and love it, and I can't wait to use both of these... When I go to the MediaFire link on the first post, it says that there are no files, are they still uploading? Sorry if I am missing something obvious.
[Touch CDMA General] katmandu421:
Are we stuck with the 320x480 res? I, too, am oval-phobic. As we progress does it look like we will eventually be able to change this (prior to donut of course).
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
Yeah still uploading.. 29% complete. I forgot to zip up the data.img so it's a big upload at 128mb, but I'm not going to start over :) lol

yes, currently we are. It's not too oval. donut supposidly support resolution scailing better so we'll see what happens with that.

You're welcome to try other resolutions but reports are it doesn't boot with anything but 320x480
[Touch CDMA General] margosmark:
The clock seems to stay at 0:00 is that normal or should i just try to reload everything

Thanks
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
oh whoops sorry I forgot to mention. The digital clock doesn't work right without weather, (you can try and manually select your location), use an analog clock.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
sometimes that happens, soft reset and try again and it will work.
[Touch CDMA General] adeyo:
WOW

i added the initrd.gz as well, mine worked well....THIS IS INCREDIBLE! The best of all of them yet!!!! BLAZING FAST -Not to mention working exchange sync! THANKS MSSMISON! i tried the rogers squash too, but it seems to be hanging or recycling HTC after it rebooted itself or something...but i really don't need rogers now. I love the features of your latest zip.

btw, i saw that you prefered the older keymap settings (slider up = back; slider down = menu (settings/notifications etc); top power button = home) is that the one you prefer?? That is the one i prefer, do you happen to have a zimage that works with squash (with your latest posted zip bundle) that would have those buttons in place? (or can i remap the buttons somehow?) ...i think i have finally found my fast, stable exchange android rom!!! ***I LOVE THE NEW DIALER!!
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
Yeah I don't like the new setup, but we're (pmos and I) working on it.

a new mssmison package is uploading that includes the update zimage that supports both new sqsh builds and old img builds. As well the basefiles.zip includes all the current files for any build.
[Touch CDMA General] adeyo:
Great, thanks! ...also, i assume i should edit the default text with my username and password right? or will data still work if i have sprint? (default has verizon data info)
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
the latest basefiles package I just uploaded and my mssmisonpackage accidentally included the old button settings.. We're looking into somehow making it user selectable. we'll keep you all updated.

Latest Update - Today - Cupcake / Donut

Hi,

I was wondering is this newest build auto connecting when it comes to the data or do you have to add it yourself?

Also does the headset issue fix? it showing when there is no headset connected and never had one been connected?

And last is has shut down / reboot been fixed?

Thanks for your hard work!

Sincerely,

Christopher
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
It will auto connect, that's what vilord always intended and I like it.

No it doesn't, it still shows the headset connection icon

No, again I've said it lots of times, reboot and shutdown aren't any different than softresetting, they don't unmount the system properly anyways so I've never put much thought into them.
[Touch CDMA General] spiritssight:
Latest Update - Today - Cupcake / Donut

Hello,

I just ran your Cupcake / Donut and the very first time it didn't auto connect, I did not try going on internet in WinMo first. now just rebooted and run again with connecting in WinMo this time it still did not auto connect. is there some thing that I should do? I know with the ION build I did not have to do any thing at all not in my startup or in the APN area.

Sincerely,

Christopher
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
nope should have too do anything..

I have the new keymap zimage from pmos, I'll post it to google code tomorrow morning, I'm gonna watch a movie.,
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
The new bundle is really quick - I'm using it with zImage-26-08-09 to get the new button layout back. I know you're working on a way to user-select the button layout and I just want to voice a vote for the new layout (camera=back and volume=volume).

Really liking this build and love the return of bundles!

Thanks
[Touch CDMA General] katmandu421:
I'm on sprint. You don't need to change anything in the default.txt. to connect. I think I read it just can't be blank.
[Touch CDMA General] grktaurus83:
Yea, you can put whatever you want in there and it won't matter.

A long time ago I spent two weeks testing almost all possible combinations and none of them mattered (at least for Sprint). It was during all this testing that I figured out how to initiate an internet connection from within Android and wrote the first (crude) versions of the internet toggle script. The connection problem wasn't due to username/password issues, but because of timing within the init script. Go figure...

So I know first hand that none of that information matters for Sprint users.
[Touch CDMA General] grktaurus83:
Man, the mssmisonpackage is quick! Wow...

I've been holding on to that really old build for a few reasons:

1) Liked the old key layout

2) Fade in / fade out issues

3) Some lag / stutter in some interim builds

And this build seems to address all of those. Accident or not, I'm glad you left the old key layout version it up there.

(((EDIT: Ah, forgot about the camera issue... *sigh* I rarely use the camera, but there are those rare moments it helps in a bind. I'll try to stick this one out.)))

And the "Power Control" Widget is _EXACTLY_ what I've been looking for. Not sure if this has been in previous builds, but this is the first time I noticed it.

Looks like I've found my new long-term build.

Thanks mssmison et al.!

Bug Report:

=========

One thing I noticed while writing this post was that the "Ringer Volume" setting option doesn't work (com.android.settings stopped unexpectedly).

Anyone else getting that or know how to get around that?
[Touch CDMA General] grktaurus83:
Just had a sweet thought...

Since the wifi icon is useless for us on the Vogue, it would be awesome if we could get the wifi icon in the "Power Control" widget to connect/disconnect our internet! I'd be set right there.

Do we have access to the source for that widget?

This is a very vogue-specific minor issue/idea, but thought I'd throw it out there and see if I could get some more info on it. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has thought of this before.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
small update to base files package uploading, includes a zimageoldbuttons and zimagenewbuttons, just rename whichever layout you like to zimage. Also this is the first step to making builds generic to both kaiser and vogue devices, there's no need to change the builds, the rootfs will autodetect which phone you have, it's a work in progress and not 100% yet, but it's on the way.

i've made a new thread specifically for rootfs changes,
[Touch CDMA General] adeyo:
mssmison zip & mssmison rogers

I have noticed i cannot find the exchange sync for contacts/calendar in the latest files, but it exists in the rogers build. am i just overlooking it or is it something that won't be able to work in the new build?

---------

Bug: also, there seems to be some sort of white graphics at the bottom of the lock screen, i tried recalibrating but it stays there. has anyone else noticed this?

Both of these latest builds are far better than anything i have used yet!!! Thanks you guys for all your work!!
[Touch CDMA General] trippinnik:
I've just tried the latest mssmison build, it seems really fast (a first for a squash based image for me), but I'm having a problem once the device locks.

I think there are some menu items at the bottom but they get pushed out of view once the status bar appears. Anyone experience this or know how to fix it?
[Touch CDMA General] trippinnik:
I c now the buttons are mapped differently ... I guess I just have to change it back.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
in the google code bundle is the zimage with the new and old buttons, just rename whichever you want to zimage and you're set.
[Touch CDMA General] trippinnik:
Tx, I've got it working now. Very fast, all I could ask for is the HTC keyboard from the Hero builds and it would be perfect (that keyboard has a built in calibration setting).

Thanks for all the hardwork, I'm finally able to ditch WinMo (and delay buying a new phone for a while).
[Touch CDMA General] jaredakelly:
great work mssmison on the new build, ridiculously stable and fast! i love this.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
umm it's the same keyboard, go to settings (in the keyboard) text input and calibration tool.
[Touch CDMA General] grktaurus83:
After using the build all day today, major slow downs happening... Just checking if anyone else is experiencing this.
[Touch CDMA General] akyboy:
using last

mssmisonrogers.sqsh

very fast, very stable, what to say,... thanks!!!!!!!!!

I would only need help with resolution, i have 320x480 but looks like that my clock is not round, its elliptical ;) and fonts is all blurry compare to base build.

Other thing i noticed is when switching from standbuy to unlock screen for a second i see `terminal` window full of linux.

Is all that normal?
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
yeah that is normal.
[Touch CDMA General] mnherky:
battery meter

Just launched the latest build. seams to run great but the battery level is not showing. anyone else seeing this?

EDIT: I guess it is working. it's just hard to see the gray level on a white background.

Using build on Kaiser, problems..

Mssmison, I'm using your build on a HTC Kaiser (ATT Tilt) with some modifications by natalic. I'm having problems shutting down my Kaiser. I won't shutdown. Posted info in natalic's kaiser thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4479618#post4479618). I apologize for hammering your name. Is there a way I can fix this?
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
Cyans Donut build is out. I'm working on porting it now, and will post soon.
[Touch CDMA General] fireshaper:
Yay! Can't wait!
[Touch CDMA General] stoked:
Having trouble with the Roger's build, it takes quite awhile to boot up and when it does, the screen is blank. I know it's loaded into Android because the buttons seem to work the way I recall they do from memory.

Using the basefiles.zip from today and the rogers squashfs image.
[Touch CDMA General] jaredakelly:
does anyone know if i change i change my google password if it will stop syncing with my phone? i would assume it would. if so how do i update it or continue to sync with the new account password?
[Touch CDMA General] zenulator:
it will ask you for the new password. it happend to me the other day when i changed my password.
[Touch CDMA General] jaredakelly:
that was simple thanks!
[Touch CDMA General] stoked:
Started from scratch and found the post that rogers image requires 320x480 resolution. Now it boots up fine. The activesync works quite well mail/contacts/calendar sync with push as well. Haven't had a lot of time to play with it but I did notice that I couldn't enable Bluetooth on the rogers image.
[Touch CDMA General] Snakehn:
using the latest here, not hero build and yes i had a hard time getting the screen to rotate back to portrait.

other than that, the build is amazing, thanks
[Touch CDMA General] natefish:
Can non-Rogers customers use the Rogers build? I'd love to have a non-hero build that does full activesync/exchange. That's the biggest reason I've stuck it out with Hero for so long. Does the full donut have all services (email, contacts, calendar) for activesync? Thanks.
[Touch CDMA General] sshark:
nice! just came back from driving trip and saw this...when can we it to play on vogues?

Any difference from what you have had in your donut/cupcake mix builds?
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
yes of course, the rogers builds were just made for the rogers carrier in canada, Once ported the the g1 they work on the vogue with any carrier no problem.
[Touch CDMA General] mcfarlan:
And with the new basefiles, it works great on AT&T Tilt....thanks!
[Touch CDMA General] natefish:
Sweet. Thanks!
[Touch CDMA General] gjbnh:
re: Latest build

I have several issues with the latest build. The speed is fantastic by the way.

1. Icons not visible on start. I assume there are some touch icons but they are not visible, fall off the bottom of screen.

2. GPS not getting satellite locks. This worked fine in previous builds.

Crashes when trying to start sound settings. Again worked fine in previous builds.

All in all, pretty good, faster than earlier builds. Thanks for the hard work.
[Touch CDMA General] katmandu421:
I just noticed this too. I unchecked Network based location and just kept GPS selected and got a lock.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
1. your res is 320x428, the g1's are 320x480 so any app's ie the lockscreen, that aren't made dynamic will look like that

2. you mean sounds and display? Do you have the media folder on the sdcard? Mine seems okay, give me some more detailed info and I'll see if I can help you.

3, gps. I don't ever use gps but I tried maps this morning, didn't find my location, downloaded gps status from the market, which worked. Tried maps again after and it worked good. Might be because the latest googlemaps isn't installed, maybe install the latest of the market and let me know.
[Touch CDMA General] cointelbro:
so mssmsion, have you heard anything about a leak or dump of the HTC Tattoo (aka Click) ROM? it's a QVGA build of Android/SenseUI, running on similar hardware to ours (though we'd probably want to overclock the processor a bit through default.txt)
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
I've seen the details on the phone and it still has alot more memory than the vogue, plus the faster cpu. I can't really see it being much different to be honest. I'll keep an ear to the ground and give it a shot when I get the rom but I'm not hoping for much to be honest. I figure the res difference is just going to use scaling like we do now.
[Touch CDMA General] pmos69:
If it uses scalling, it has to have some more tweaks, or the screen would have the wrong proportions like our current ones.

Either way, some good things should come out of this release for sure...

Possibly, the release of it's kernel sources (like it happened recently for other devices) will be very helpful also.
[Touch CDMA General] yoko1324:
sometimes the phone will not wake - full reboot required

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Repeated sleep/wake cycle

2. Press "end" to put to sleep

3. Press "power" to wake

What did you expect? What actually happened?

I expected the phone to wake normally but instead, the phone seized to

function. No LED lights, screen activation, no input at all would cause a

reaction.

Which system are you using, when were the various components built that

you're using, and are you using anything non-standard (like a custom

kernel)?

I am using the latest mssmison cupcake 1.5 build (from 9/7/09).

Please provide any additional information below.

Most of the time it's okay, but I just started to use it today (9/8/09) and

I have had to reset the phone twice so far.

I have adjusted the on-wake power settings to determine if this would have

an effect. Results for the settings 0-4:

0 - Issue first occurred

3 - Issue persists

4 - Extreme power consumption, discontinued use

1 - Current setting

2 - have not yet tried

Please let me know if there is a setting that needs to be adjusted in order

to remedy this problem. Thank you.

Otherwise, awesome build! I like this version very much!

Also, attempting to fix GPS by installing GPS status per your instructions. Thanks. :)

With the HTT Tattoo's screen resolution at 240x320 will he have proper support for our screens?
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
hey guys between renovations, back to school, work, and a wedding I'm shooting this weekend I've been too busy to work on Donut. I've asked zenulator to post the one he's got working. Enjoy and thank him :)
[Touch CDMA General] cointelbro:
yeah i'm not expecting a giant leap in functionality, but not having a smushed screen would be fantastic. it really drives me crazy trying to read blurry stuff.
[Touch CDMA General] gjbnh:

2. No I do nto, must have missed that (reading thru 100 plus pages :confused:) Will NOW do a search

Anyone else having the earlier mentioned problem where its stuck in haret?

Tried replacing the initrd.gz as stated before but it still happens. Have reset it and tried again but still the same.

I have a Kaiser, other builds all worked fine.

Made about 25 reset :)

Can i extract in some way the log of HaRet to be of use for someone ?

I boot android in 240x320 with lcd.density at 128 and the UI looks more proportioned for our screen than the other resolutions we try. I've found a lot of apps work too, neocore looks good, and video playback is also better. The only core apps I ran into, that dont fit on the screen, are the core music app, gmail, and gallery... qvga looks almost like 428x320 but a lil bigger, no blur, and more proper fit for our screens. It seems to me like the work is already done in the builds we're running now..all we need is some app support... which could be the biggest thing the tattoo will give us..besides sense ui

build dated 09.09.2009

good morning all.

i was very excited to find the 'new' cupcake at

http://code.google.com/p/vogue-android/downloads/list

however after installing and some through testing i have been left with some serious issues. my hopes are that with this post it will help the developers for future builds.

i shall start with the likes....

+ excellent desk top... especially like how the user has the option to make it bigger if one so chooses.

+ like the ability to freely add and remove any applications with simpicity

+ microsoft exchange and active sync are now included

+ bluetooth works semi-reliably to the tune of almost 85-90% of the time

+ low battery drain- when starting from full charge i have gotten almost 15 hours before i needed a charge.

+ works quicker than other builds

+ more widgets- COOL

the still needs help areas

- sound works only about 50% of the time

- will not charge or give accurate battery readings- when battery gets too low, i have had to reset back to WinMO to charge then restart HARET

- camera still not good

- GPS still no dice.. but i still have yet to get the darn thing to function anyway.

overall i give the build 1.5 thumbs up. if anyone has the ability to create patches and/or needs a tester please let me know. i am always willing to help in testing even if i suck at development/everything else
