Tattoo is definitely very nice.. Too slow for my tastes though, so I switched to the official Donut release and I have to say its pretty nice!

Distorted audio aside (not a big deal to me) I do have two other issues.

First is when the phone is in standby, hitting the power button (on top) brings it out of sleep and directly to the home screen - it does not present the lock screen. Turning on the lock pattern does not solve this.

As well in any program, pressing the top power button does not bring you back to the home screen. Am I missing something there?

I am using the 20090919 base files with the zimage-oldkeymap and the rootfs-tattoo-donut-100309 posted today.

The phone is still perfectly useable, just interested if anyone else is having these problems?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bmnaccounts:
Looks like a fell a little behind as theres quite a few different releases out at the moment. Which tattoo build out there is the most stable?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
interesting, I had this happen with the first tattoo release that got rid of the screen calibration on first launch. once I went into setting>display and calibrated the screen, the lock screen came back. maybe try this and see if it shows up.

huh, I was about to switch back to the old keymap, because the new keymap has not been able to set the red key to go "home, then sleep" and it was becoming annoying. will wait to see other's experiences, I guess I'll just use "back" for now and have no home key, sticking with the new keymap. hmm, sounds like there is a problem with all keymaps triggering the the "home" key.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
yeah, latest google ion official has not restarted on me yet. only things for me are scant market apps and not being able to set the home key.

I switch back between the last xrom (1.5xx, my stable daily use build) and whatever is the latest donut/tattoo that I'm trying out, I can always see all market apps in xrom but only a few in donut. will try using donut for a little while, maybe things will show up after a few reboots.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
try killing off apps and processes in tattoo after everything settles down. i mean several mins after its first booted. it'll run all day with widgets on every homescreen. also make sure you have a hero.user.conf with compcache. i'm not saying it's the fastest build in the world but i think it's a little faster than hero with everything setup right.

and which official donut release? i have two up. one from the g1/dev phone and one from the google ion.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BJNK:
At first I thought I was getting the whole market but I was wrong. Interestingly when I clicked on my downloads - it had a history of all my installed apps, and I was able to install them again. So really I'm not behind on the apps I want... until something new comes out! :p
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
and no GPS yet, and occasionally takes multiple presses of power button to wake from sleep.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lagloose:
i'm really goin crazy with Data Connections...

tried the new Donut and Tattoo with new basefiles and rootfs. Everything works fine. I can make Calls, send SMS and Donut is incredible fast. But whatever i tried, i can't get a working Data Connection. Checked everything 10 times. No Success. With my old Cupcake and XROM, everything works perfect...

Any more ideas, what i could try ?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
don't know what exact files are you using? the apn list is the same as the old google ion. it picks mine up right away. did you try a reboot after your first boot?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
zen what do I need to set my resolution at for the blur-donut? right now im using: mddi.width=240 mddi.height=320 on kaiser
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mcfarlan:
I am having the same issue. I see the network icon on the taskbar and the down arrow constantly blinks. The APN is also defined the way I know it to be. But, whenever I try to sign in, I always get the message 'Unable to establish a network connection' after a while, with the try again option. I have noticed that the 'send' or up arrow never lights up.

I am using basefiles V2 with the new rootfs and the system-blur.sqsh on an AT&T Tilt. Basic functions work, no WiFi...

I have tried some mixing and matching of files, but gave that up since it was really guesswork on my part and in some cases, Android would not boot...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
that should work
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
mddi.width=336 mddi.height=448 works perfectly for kaiser with blur-donut build
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mcfarlan:
Is your data working?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
im using this as well and have widget breaks on vogue
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
i need to add the qvga stuff to that build prop. so right now use a different resolution than 240w 320h
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
yes my data is working with the blur-ion build. however, my audio is not working on that build. im using various zImages and rootfs trying to see which combo works.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
audio is broken on dount/tattoo builds right now. it's either working audio with no calls or calls with broken audio. you still have audio in call working fine. i'm trying to work on a fix then at least all the basic stuff works. remember the donut/tattoo builds i put out are for testing. oh and the blur dump is out..........
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
Is this new Roger's build based on cupcake or donut? Sorry picked out an old post but unlike you maniacs I was sleeping :D:D

Also, Google ION/Donut port is awesome Zen...works flawlessly with data/sms/calls/audio.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
the new rogers build is cupcake and has flash in the browser. and btw i'm booting motoblur right now
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
such a tease
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
lol i'll put up what i have in a little bit. it's not finished but. nice to play with.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
anyone figure out a way to see all apps in the Market on tattoo/donut?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
nope....make a new gmail account when you first log in and see if that works.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
just uploaded motoblur use it like ion with an ion.user.conf but keep your resolution like hero.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xxbabiboi228xx:
zen does moto blur have sense ui in it? ok i see now it has its own ui scratch this question
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
I had the zip of some of my wallpapers scaled 640x480 for our phones. I'm uploading every one I have at full resolution now. Still going but here's the link. You can click Photo Gallery to see thumbnails. Keep boring wallpaper off of your phone-- wallpapers
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JeckyllHavok:
Can anyone please post a manual hpw to make the good roms evil?

Thanks:D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
mount identical nice and evil builds, type "diff -qr nice/ evil/" to get a breakdown. You should just be able to drop the apps you want into /system/apps/. Flash and Java are a little more complicated.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] loserskater:
removed for insuffeciency
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jamezelle:
for java you need jbed.apk in apps folder and libjbedvm.so in lib folder
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zakkain:
this is awesome, it runs really fast and smooth.

I've noticed that there's no Browser in the motoblur, and I think data isn't working (Modem says data is on but it doesn't work). But I'm still going to use it.

This is amazing work, Zen, you rock!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BJNK:
Just an FYI, on the third reboot my phone started to work normally with the buttons and lock screen etc. Still same problems with Market and GPS and the known audio problem.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
no market and data on motoblur. i also get a force close in wireless controls settings
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
data isn't working in motoblur. it's connected but android doesn't see it. and i don't know whats up with the browser. the apks in there. but it's useless anyway if and when the data connection is fixed.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BJNK:
Actually I just stumbled across the program "System app backupper" and it allows you to back up and restore all apk's including the google apps.

I have not actually tried it yet, but I have run it and confirmed that it sees all the apps.. I did not see java or flash though.

Anyways one of you smart people should check it out :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jamezelle:
didnt work for me:( now i just build them in myself:D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
Java and Flash have their framework dependencies. Just in the terminal (or ADB) type "cp /data/app/* /sdcard/AndroidApps/" and you're good at next boot for other apps.

Also, I gave up on the backup prog I was dabbling with MyBackup works perfectly across different builds. Just backed mine up and restored them on Hero/Blur.

And can anyone screenshot their Motoblur?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Loving the tattoo resolution and speed, but unable to find a keyboard setting that displays a usable layout. How is everybody else signing in on this build?

EDIT: Didnt remove my lcd.density. all good now but no GPS makes a non geocaching phone. Bummer.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jamezelle:
keyboard worked fine for me after you calibrate screen
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BJNK:
I think you are referring to the fact its the keypad layout instead of qwerty? If so, select the little "gear" looking gadget. This will open the settings. Then choose input method and select qwerty. That worked for me..
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lagloose:
yap, nearly exactly the same here... I don't get that 'Unable to establish a network connection' message, but i also have the network icon with the down arrow. Connection is terminated and after some seconds the phone tries to reconnect and so on and so on and so on...

I'll switch back to my Cupcake for now. Hope that someone could fix Data in Donut when i'm back from holidays...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
nice job with the wallpapers. looking forward to the .zip of them all if you get around to it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
is anyone using the HTC cupcake/rogers build? It boots up for me but I don't get the screen to show up. Just an all black screen (not initial long boot screen), I am using the latest basefiles with today's rootfs.img. not using a user.config and have tried 240x320 res and also mddi.width=336 mddi.height=448 lcd.density=160. any suggestions?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
probably tomorrow. I'll put the zip in the same folder so you can find it. It's over a CD's worth and I just got about 400 more from 4chan
[Touch CDMA Android Development] loserskater:
I haven't tried it yet but maybe mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
im not sure if the res has anything to do with it now, because I noticed before, that when I had incorrect res settings, the screen still came up but it was just distorted.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jamezelle:
installed video recorder app and it used the camera but then i tried to record and i got a force close then i tapped the screen and the device rebooted to windows
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tembares:
We are talking about the Hero build, but I have a question about the stocks application.

I am roaming with my Kaiser. When I use the widget, it says it could not load data, because I am roaming.

When I go to Menu->Settings->Wireless controls->Mobile Network settings then Data Roaming is enabled and Enable always-on mobile is also enabled.

Did I miss a settings?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
I removed the camera app because it was giving me crazy problems and didn't want to hear about it if I left it in there. There are some camera programs you can download from the market that work with the camera. A great test even though it isn't really a camera app is snaptell in the android market. So the camera does work just not with the htc camera apps. And I tried to port the camera from ion over but no luck.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thejaredhuang:
BTW I'm running on a Kaiser.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
BTW if you were testing wifi you needed to be downloading system-dalvik.img.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gjbnh:
Still looking for a little help guys with this guys. It appears that like the WM, you can't change the built in cities so I need the name of a free app that lets me get my local weather,and I'm still working on getting version info.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
gjbnh, on all Hero builds you need to have the location set for you. Just like TouchFlo for Windows Mobile it comes with built-in cities but you can't add to them for reasons beyond me. Either wifi or a data plan with GPS on a clear day with direct view of the sky. Once it finds your location it will be "My Location" on the apps. There may be a way to get to the config/database that holds it but I wouldn't know.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gjbnh:
Thanks!! It make sense. Going outside to get a GPS lock now :)

UPDATE: Too cloudy today I guess....sigh
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
Does it say it can't determine the location? There is an issue with some radios/ROMS as well as sometimes needing it enabled in WinMo before you boot Android. You might want to check that out. I have a 1.6.xxxx something radio and it's never worked for me but I haven't really tried either. Hope that helps
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SkywalkerPD:
On my Kaiser I have problems importing contacts from the SIM to the phone. The import screen stays black and doesn't show contacts at all.

I'm using the latest hero build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mattcoz:
Isn't the clock widget supposed to show the weather and date? The bottom part is just blank for me. :confused:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
Do you have data or wifi working to update the weather? It's blank otherwise.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cmus:
wifi still not working

Tested zen-hero-wifi-dalvik081209 and can confirm wifi is not working on AT&T Tilt. Used it with a fresh install of zen-hero-090809.zip package. Also tried it with a calibration file from a working build of Ion. Also tried it with zImage-13-08-09. No combination of these produced working wifi.

I love the build otherwise. It is slow at first, but after running for a few minutes becomes much more responsive. Thanks for your hard work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] shadowline:
I too can confirm what the poster above me mentioned.

But this build seems to be the best working version so far, slow sometimes but generally fast for me on the Tilt/Kaiser.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
It was taken out to gain some speed. The weather clock in combination with the weather widget really slows things down. If you guys want I'll put up a complete hero but it's not going to be as fast as whats up now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] s0v3r1gn:
So I went to Settings>Personalize>Home Wallpaper and that worked just perfectly. Thanks. The Menu>Wallpaper or going to album and selecting an image does not work for me, it just goes to the HTC screen and the home screen reloads with the previous wallpaper. This happens only if I use my albums as apposed to the wallpaper gallery, which works just fine. Probably trying to allocate too much memory to do the resize to keep both the home screen and the photo in memory at the same time, causing some kind of crash.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] natefish:
I tried the test images posted (both had dalvik in the name?), but both were crashing Touchflo too much. Have they been giving anyone else issues? I always start a new data file, but I also wondered if there is a certain zImage or rootfs I should be using. If so, please tell me the exact name so I can test more accurately.

The test build that Zenulator uploaded on the 11th has actually been the most stable one. I don't even know if it's still on the code site or else I would post the exact name.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
It's most likely the stripped down version of touchflo.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
It's still on the site in the depreciated downloads. Just change the view from current downloads to all downloads. You can use any zImage and use the initrd.gz and rootfs in the zen-hero bundle or it's also up at http://code.google.com/p/vogue-android/downloads/list. The zImage in the bundle just has the keys remapped. If you look through the google ion thread vilord also posted another zImage with different keymapping or you can use the latest on the vogue-android google code page which has the old keymapping.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mattcoz:
Ahh, ok. What about just the weather clock? Does it still really slow things down if the weather widget isn't used?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
Whenever I've had the eternal black screen of doom, a premade data.img fixed it right away. On the second to most recent Hero/Blur, it actually got to loading the home screen but Touchflo crashed in an infinite loop. With ADB, I overwrote the data folder with a backup and it worked right away.

I don't know the cause yet and there's a lot of variables involved but try that like I've had to for a while. Except with Tattoo and Donut-- they just work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
rogers build with new roofts working great for me
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
what does your default look like bro? and are you using a premade data?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
i didnt use a premade data and im running at 320x480 160

Edit: i just got a phone call and it froze everything had to reboot. and it was really late. my wife called my cell phone, then called the house phone and i answered and talked to her for a few and then my cell finally rang from her calling even though i was talking to her for at least 20 seconds

Edit again: fixed after reboot. calls coming in fine now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
thats the resolution you need for rogers. the lcd.density=160 shows the boot screen.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
there we go. thanks bro. I guess it was the lcd density not being set that was causing the black screen problem.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xxbabiboi228xx:
Zen will this new rootfs give tattoo wifi?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
I've had no luck with wifi. Someone want to help test it? I know what to do but I think it's a Donut thing atm.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
Zen, anyway you could post up a blank slate data image for tattoo so we (I) can avoid the setup process. I can get to there, but during it my phone gets totally slow and it makes it more or less impossible to complete.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
maybe tomorrow unless somebody else want to put one up. i'm working on something else right now then going to bed.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
fixed audio for donut........

With last ion-donut, when booting after android logo go to black screen and nothing happens. Last roofts, 240x320 lcd.density=120, ion.user.config. Nike handset
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JeckyllHavok:
have you tried to take lcd.density out of your default.txt?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] joannerve:
Update: delete an application from androidapps on sdcard and now boot without problems (seem it was conflictive) but with the eternal data connection problems with donut/tattoo builds. I can´t get connected. I don´t know but it happens to me only with donut builds!! Only an arrow upwards but don´t connect
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
Ok new ion donut build Is up. Working calls/data/audio. I'll update tattoo later today.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fireshaper:
End button behavior is still a no-go.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] craig0r:
Nope, it's not possible to flash Android over WM. Not yet anyway. A while back, there was some discussion and effort put into this, but it seems to have been swept under the rug for the time being. I think (and I may be wrong) that this is because everyone wants to get the android builds working perfectly first, which means getting bluetooth up and going, among other things.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] heidewitzgar:
Sorry for posting the question twice.. Should've waited a while, but thought chances for an answer wd be better.. :o

What about the HaRet option, is this a thing the HaRet dev has to answer or is the "port" to other devices only a thing of getting the right ROM available?

Thanks for the answer!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
thats something you can ask dzo in the kernel thread. as long as it's arm android isn't very picky. but you need the right kernel for your device and haret could be a problem if it doesn't run with your processor. he's gonna hate me but pm dzo he's ported android to other devices.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Brshk1:
heidewitzgar,

I read somewhere and time ago that Android still relies on WinMo to initialize some hardware components. If that is right, we are some miles away from target. But you'd better follow Zenulator's advice...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JacenSolo2001:
Will MyBackup actually backup the yahoo apps too, so they could be used on other builds? I rely on gmail, calendar and contacts from yahoo, and need them to work!

Thanks for the info!:)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] enatefox:
You can backup apps and data. Data are broken down into calls, SMS, contacts, etc. Apps just copies all of the ones from the /data/app/ folder like Astro.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] garynsa:

The link for the latest rootfs (100509). Can someone post the link

Thanks in advance
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:

Hi

Tried the latest ion build. The audio is distorted. I am using this on Kaiser. Anything specific that I am missing
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
what is distorted? music? it's playing fine for me. only some notification sounds sound distorted but the others don't.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] garynsa:
Yes the music. playing mp3 files
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
what files are you using?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] garynsa:
hi i am using the system-ion-donut-100509.sqsh with rootfs 100409
[Touch CDMA Android Development] KERKEDAGAIN:
i'd been using the donut-blur and i have always had audio..the distortion i noticed was the same in pretty much any other build (would distort, but after pushing pause for music or trying the notification again it would go back to normal)

On another note, is it possible to add blur-nimations to the tattoo build?? I actually like the ones from the themed Ion better than the Motoblur dump itself..ha
[Touch CDMA Android Development] silex:
I want to try 1.6 Donut on my Vogue. Can somebody send me the system-m22.sqsh file?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
system-m22.sqsh isn't donut. donut is on the vogue-hero google code page.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] 2girls1cup:
zen I know you're working on that tattoo with audio fix huh. looking forward to it
