Charging issues...

I have not been able to charge my HD while running android.

Tried both, PC based charging and using the wall socket charger! but no luck!

Does anyone noticed this or am I missing anything here?

I know it is still an alpha release and the battery drains too quickly with the screen being on all the time! But, unable to charge when running android is negative on usability :(

I don't mind charging 4-5 times a day if it works, atleast the GSM module is working ;)

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DanMccoy1:
Start with winmo, use activesync, run haret.exe, leave it plugged in and it will charge.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
What seems to work is to boot haret whilst connected to usb. That way the charging seems to work.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Il_Tera:
Tuxo, maybe someone already asked, but why have you change from android 1.6 to 1.5 with rel 0.2?

Thanks for your job

Tera
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Duncank:
It was asked before indeed, that's because more things work with 1.5 on our blackstone. In 1.6 too many features didn't work and drivers had to be re-written for that. So for now we have to work with 1.5 and make sure everything works stable, before we will see a new version of the android-core.

Hi Dan,

- At this time, I can't use AnySoftKeyboard 'caus it just use half the screen and i can't find any setting anywhere.

- APN Backup & Restore seems to work pretty well.

- I don't use File Browser but AndExplorer.

- Androzip seems quite OK.

- I don't use 2G-3G OnOff nor Switch Network Type 2G / 3G.

- Commantalb always says there is no app launched so I use Task Manager.

- I don't need Fantasy Lockscreen because of having disabled screen manager in WinMo.

- Nabazdroid's running pretty well.

- I have dwldd AndNav2, NextStreet and Layar Reality Browser to test launching. All launch normally (even if the cam isn't working, those proggies are working).

- Facebook for Android, Documents to Go, Shazam and Twidroid do theyr work normally.

WeatherWidget and tCalandar Widget are working somehow. They do need some time to launch one time out of five and lost sometime the settings. I also have noticed that my phone is running slowerly from now.

Credit to DanMccoy1 for most of the Apps.

One thing i can't fix is the time setting. Though i select GMT+1, uncheck autosetting, my HD runs always 2 hours faster than WinMo. The second strange thing is that the settings i make in Android do affect the Time in WinMo! So I never have the same time settings in Android and WinMo :confused:

If you read a few posts back, you may find some infos about the SD issues.

Try to format your SD in Fat32 and past Android again in it (on the root of the card, not in a folder).

v0.3 could be out this w-end, but as it is not a factory, it'll out when it'll out. Just wait ...patiently ;)

i think you misunderstood my question. I have android on my device however i want to roll my own.. I've done make and i have the files and folders i posted above.. I take it i need to do some more to get a workable android on my system (one which i built myself, not the one in the zip on page one).

i've tried copying the folders and files(the ones from the android make output) to my device and running haret with an appropriate kernel and startup file, however after switching over to running the ramdisk.img file it halts saying it cannot find certain files in the data and system folders.

any help would be appreciated. running make alone obviously isn't the only thing to be done, or not?

hi men.

since the screen is able to detect two x's and two

y's, it is possible (in theory) to make a good fake

multi-touch. I've no idea about drivers, but have

some experience with algorithms and would help

if required, if it is possible to hack the drivers to

manage those four coordinates.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] skulk3r:

2. Bluetooth

3. Wifi

4. G-Sensor

Although I think that many people here want wifi first. Personally, I barely chew up 50mb/month and I /try/ to use internet...and i have a limit of 150mb. So wifi is not a problem for me
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sjmcinness:
First of all, a big thanks to Tux and all the developers working with him on the Blackstone Android project! You've done an awesome job to get this far :cool:

If USB support meant that charging status/progess displayed correctly then that would receive my first vote. And, whilst they're nice to have, I can live without wireless and g-sensor so my list would be:

1. USB

2. Bluetooth

3. WiFi

4. G-Sensor
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcdull:
Wifi is definitely the top priority. Android uses the internet a lot. Some of us need to pay a lot for the internet connection over 3G.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wlady1:
if USB support will fix charging (no more booting android with plugged cable to be able to charge) and allow filetransfers from computer to mobile, then USB support is on the first place for me.

On the second place is WiFi to reduce gprs/3g payments.

IMO the most important is screen on/off.

Then is the usb for file trasnfer, sync, charge.

After that wifi in the one.

Bluetooth and G-sensor are not really important (for me!)

I think that the screeon on/off deserves by itself a 0.3 version and then we could wait for the 0.4 with USB, WIFI and BT
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaniLoveSky:
1. Wifi - would be the most useful for me as I do not have data plan.

2. USB - just next to Wifi in priority for file transfer.

3. Bluetooth - again, mostly for file transfer

4. G-Sensor - not really important

Many thanks tuxhero!

Yes, that is what he just said! Please respect the developer/s!! Developing Android kernel for Blackstone is no walk in the park..

Please note that getting a fully working Android on Blackstone will probably take 6 months - 1.5 years (ie a rom for the phone).

You guys just have to have more patience, no "stupid" questions like "why is it taking so long" etc.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobRedbeard:
1. Camera (hehe) Half the cool of android is all the camera related stuff

2. USB Sure, that's useful.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobRedbeard:
Preach on brother.

A lot of people don't have any grasp at all for how complex these things are, and then how in many cases hardware hackers have to guess and search. This stuff isn't all that well documented.

TUX: You should just tell people it'll be 26 weeks until the next release. Then if something else happens and you get it out earlier. Seriously, at the point, most posts in here are becoming useless until a new build. Last night I spent an hour ready a rubbish pile of 100 posts that asked the same questions then discussed asking old questions. Just about all user experience has been documented and instructions for connecting to Movistar Spain have been posted 5 times.

Everyone, just go do something else, productive until Tux lucks into the right info/guess/1000 hours of trial and error. I'm assuming everyone here has a pda phone because they actually have a life/job to organize, no?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mouzetc:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] unix_ftw:
Yes, that is true. ver. 0.1 & 0.2 came fast due to that the problem with sound was solved. ver. 0.2 came when Tux realized that Android v1.5 was more stable than Android 1.6 on Blackstone.

There will be a ver. 0.3, 0.4... 0.8 and so on but the releases does not come 3 times a week.

And to the moron who asked "WHEN WILL THERE BE A STBLE RELEASE" + 1000 question marks. The answer is: ETA 2011 (and that is why I sold my Blackstone and bought a N900 Maemo device..)
