Whyyyyyyyyyyyy?????

Hey everybody,

now I followed nearly all the hints and tricks available on the internet but I cannot get my friggin data connection to work. So here are some last questions before I loose all hope and brake out in tears of despair;)

What radio version are yall running? The 1.13... or some earlier version? Does the radio version even have any relation to the problem?

Did anyone with an o2 germany account manage to set up the connection running the shipped rom? Or do I have to flash some other rom?

What could be the matter with my phone on a wider scale? What influences the connectivity? Is it the radio, the rom, the provider? What makes it possible/impossible to connect? Where can I look for errors or defects?

Is there maybe an 02 germany customer in Hamburg who would meet me and configure my phone for some cash?

Here's my set up: My T8282 is running the latest o2 custom rom (1.57.207.1 (47324) ger); never flashed it with anything else. Radioversion (came with the rom upgrade) 1.12.25.16D3/protocoll 52.60.25.33U.

That's about it. Any questions on your side, don't hasitate to ask.

Any help's appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Vader

almost forgot:

Is there a way to enter the synch-prefs without set up google account? On my phone it only flashes for a split sec before the google account activation pushes it aside once in a while. But it's way too short to disable the auto-sync - I learned that for some of you that helped for some reason and apndroid didn't do the trick for me.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kniffo80:
hi vader ... it's dark and rainy in hamburg isn't it?! hehehe. komme auch aus hamburg ...

i don't have o2 but e-plus working data connection in the blackstone android. it has nothing to do with your flashed radio rom or your flashed rom. blackstone android is a standalone operating system, that is not depending on the rom you flashed (i hope so ^^)

So, try out the following link:

O2 APN for Android (G1)

This should work. You have to enter those settings manually in the settings!

viele grüße von einem hamburger ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vader hd:
Moin kniffo,

erstmal vielen Dank für die schnelle Antwort!

Would adress you in german but I don't know if there's some board rule asking for english ...

I configured the apn according to the info from this forum, the o2 website and I even called customer care for the values needed - nothing. Some other member said he used the same setting as me and they worked for him. The post you referred to seems to be outdated since it's from back in 07. Tried the settings anyway but nothing change. MIST!

But thanks again for your help anyway!

And hey: If you want to give it a shot... Let's talk out a price and if you eventually get this s*#! running, i'll be happy to gratitude your magic;)

Cheers (Bis dann)

Hi vader hd,

it's realy sad to hear, that your data connection is still not working.

As I already wrote, I'm also on o2 Germany network and my data connection is working fine in android.

My actual radio rom is 1.17.25.09, the rom I'm using atm is XannyTechROM GRID LEO 2.0b and the following APN settings are set in android:

Name: o2 Internet

APN: internet

Proxy: nicht festgelegt

Passwort: nicht festgelegt

MMSC: nicht festgelegt

MMS-Proxy: nicht festgelegt

Is your data connection working in your current wm rom??

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vader hd:
Hey giniman,

thanks for your help. In WM 3G is working fine and I have exactly the same apn. I don't know. In setup.txt I changed the dial-in number to *99# and the apn to "internet". I installed the v.02, the v0.1 and the ion-quickfix build. Can't tell how often I formatted the sd and went through the airplane mode routine - nothing worked.

Since HD Tweak is the only software I'm running apart from WM, a software conflict seems rather unlikely. So given it can't be the hardware (WM works), nor the radio (post above), nor the rom (post above), nor the sd (it's booting), nor the software (almost non installed), nor the set up (same as yours). What's left then? Apart from me, that is;) Any ideas?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Uglymike:
Vader HD,

You probably tried this, but anyhow...

On the WM side of things, first start up a browsing session over 3G just to be sure the 3G subsystems are initialized THEN start Haret while the browser is still open. (I find that USB Charging also seems to work better if the phone is already charging in WM when I start Haret). Then for the rest it should be just entering your APN values and firing up a data connection (like Android Market). Of course, I have no idea if the issue you face is end-userrelated, handset related or carrier related... I just know the above works for me
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] futureshock:
Hi, there....

i saw 1.6er Android Videos running on a Touch HD...

btw. the running system looks really stable, fast ans smooth!

i think the guys are a step ahead this project here or??

http://stahovat.okamzite.eu/news.php?readmore=936

i recently see there in the posts in the link above a link back here to xda...??

maybe tuxhero does something but didn't post here anymore??

the talk about that he's released a 1.6er android version... put not here on first post?? or did i overread something??
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
Probably you did. Tuxhro's Alpha 0.1 worked on Android 1.6, but he came back to 1.5 in the alpha 0.2.

That page is talking about this thread :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] aavan:
Tuxhero released his 0.1 version on Android 1.6, but there was too many problems (data was not working for a lot of ppl here, but it was working here for example, without any particular reason) so he reverted to Android 1.5 which is better supported.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vader hd:
Hey uglymike,

thanks for your reply, but as you guessed, I already tried that procedure without any success. This thing's really giving me a hard time. Maybe I should wait for christmas to come and then give it another try;)

uk o2 settings

Hi. I've managed to get android to run on my htc touch hd :-)

However I can't seem to get o2 as 1 of the network operators. weird. I started web browsing before running haret and that didn't work either. I also went to apn settings and entered the following

name: 02

apn: wap.o2.co.uk

Port: 9201

username: o2wap

password: password

server: 192.113.200.195

mcc: 234

mnc: 10

also added the following apn

name: o2web

apn: mobile.o2.co.uk

username: mobileweb

password: password

server: 193.113.200.200

when going to 'search networks' option I don't get the option to be o2 uk

these are the ones I can find and in that order.

btcellnet

btcellnet

vodafone ltd

one 2 one person

orange pcs ltd

vodafone ltd

one 2 one person

Orange pcs ltd

So the bottom line is that I cannot access the internet or make any phone calls to test the system. 1 positive is that android looks great on the touch hd and should've been the os by default.

thanks tux for all your hardwork and ignoring the impatient doubters on the previous threads.

vinny
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TonyJ999:
Have you tried using port 8080 instead of 9201? I had a similar issue on T-Mobile but once I added it in then things appeared to work ok... Worth a try.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Budadank:
O2 UK appears on the network list as BT Cellnet - the old name for O2, who were also once known as MMO2...

It should find it automatically if you leave it to auto and use the APN settings you already have.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vinnytheviking:
Thanks Tony, port 8080 worked after a few reboots :-)

Budadank, thanks for that I was just worried it was using some other provider :-)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bl@ck:
meh where's tux :( it's been a lot since his last post here, just a "yo 'sup ppz, how're things going" would be great!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kael:
does anybody know the evolution of the project on the GIT? (in non developer words :D)

By the way, is it possible to use Android 2.0? Or would we need to modify everything again?

Hi! last version:

Build: blackstone

3753cf9441d3e1f0d8d9bb28bd1f65f2bbbfcda3

Date: Wed Nov 11 00:02:03 2009 +0100

don't work for me... i see it stopped after check /system mount (can't find device loop in /dev)

any suggestions?

i use this base version: http://rapidshare.com/files/293276668/BLAC_touch_quickfix_corrected.rar

and work fine.

but when i overwrite the zImage with the last release, it stop working.

:confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lexxi:
maybe he´s looking for ppl to fix real problems/bugs for him so he can put their work in a package, name it "Tuxhero´s own super dupa blackstone work" and wait for more ppl to donate like crazy
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] aavan:
Or maybe you're a troll.

Stop flaming please.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsanchez88:
Yeah man, stop attacking tux, he's asked nothing from you, you should be damn greatful he's willing to share his work at all (however long it takes)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobRedbeard:
@Maxymm - you might want to learn more about how to make your own linux setup for htc linux before declaring that something is broken. This is not the place to get help doing this. People using this forum are end-users who don't know how to set it up themselves. www.htc-linux.org has some information in the wiki that might help you to read.

@Lexxi - the topic of whether or not Tuxhero has provided enough updates himself to the htc-linux project to warrant putting his name on this distro is worn out and no longer needs your passive aggressive commentary. That discussion is over. Everyone giving him money here knows what he has and hasn't contributed and in the end is entitled to do what they want with their cash. Don't like it? Then stop reading this thread.

@Others - stop with the defensive sucking up. Tux can take a little criticism. He'll be okay. Also, he has been pushing the credit envelope so to speak, if he can pull off the lcd work though, he'll deserve the credit you're giving him.

In the meantime, I've taken apart an old smashed up blackstone that I had around here and inspected the screen. I've also reverse engineered the device driver for the blackstone hardware. What I have not done though is worked with Linux drivers on an embedded device before, so I really need to collaborate with Tux to make what I'm learning useful. I've been doing the crash course in GPIO slots, and MSM architecture and assembly. Tux, you out there bro?

Rob
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zeer:
Well, now i know for sure that's the end of xda-DEVELOPERS.com. It has already happened.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
I can understand Lexxi.

Ive asked tux two times if he is using his own kernel-project (that he started after closing his other thread) in these releases, no response, I wonder why.

He released these alphas right after the guys in the linux-thread posted progress.

I guess people should look to the htc-linux irc-channel if you want info on the progress, cause there is where its happening.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Good, so i joined #htc-linux and...

[12:26] <MiT-MiTiK> ~seen tuxhero

[12:26] <apt> tuxhero <n=tuxhero@122.169.149.130> was last seen on IRC in channel #htc-linux, 16d 16h 39m 7s ago, saying: 'phh, does diamond LCD and Panel Working correctly?'.

So if everything is happening there is 16 days tux is not there...

Or maybe has another name....

Anyway i wait, and i will donate ONLY when i'll have a working release that i can use everyday

Hope is last to die :P
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] aavan:
What he meant by "forum" was "thread"

And he's right, this thread was done for end-users, devs have a separate thread, a wiki & #htc-linux.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] patp:
AFAIK no one is developing for Blackstone at the moment. Happy to be proven wrong.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] aavan:
Unfortunately you are right.

As I have a lot of spare time for the moment I'd love to give it a go, my c/c++ skill are a bit rusty, but there's a lot to learn for me here, and a lot of fun/anger too.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tikejhya:
i feel like "LOST" in the middle of the ocean.... i was dreaming, thinking, feeling, everything for android in my black-stone.... it seemed like no far away now....but... hopes are fading away now.... its been too long since not even a single message from Tux.:(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Tux was not in the Irc channel #htc-linux since 16 days...

That does not mean he is not working on it... but still is disappointing, also couse first he said that a new version was coming in a few days... and we are waitning almost a month...

He also said that even he cannot make the "lcd on" working he was fixing other stuff...

But still no contacts or news...

(maybe with the donations he bought a LEO and now is working on it :) just kidding)

Anyway he is not under contract, he can do whatever he wants, all we can do is wait or try to do it by ourselves.

I hope he send us a message soon

PS: i think giving him donation before having a working version is stupid. First couse he already have all he needs, and he does not have to buy anything to make it work; and second couse if he get money at the end of the project, instead now that is an embrion version, he has more reasons to make it finish...

So from me he will get a big donation once i will have a full working version of android on my HD, but not before.

Once he said he was going to send a beta to who was donating, and everybody was paying for nothing... did u get your special beta? I dont think so... lol
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
From the weeks i followed htc-linux on irc (a few months ago), tux was not very active. But other devs were.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itchy8me:
maybe he's sick.

anyways, i'm sure i saw commits done by him for the kernel in october. I think he makes mass changes and then commits them all at once. Don't be so judgemental guys.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Hashirkhan:
great work

great work but my screen keeps dimming and undimming by itself constantly

how do i fix this?

and were is the autodimming option?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jfp:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lexxi:
Well,

1st: His work made me laugh

2nd: I can go to http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/ and download other ppl´s work and put it into Lexxi´s super Andriod package. I did not see 1 single major bug fixed by Tuxhero. The only thing i see is ppl donating like crazy for things he did not do but that´s up to you guys, you can spend your money for whatever you want.

The only thing i still remember is Tux saying the only way we can get updates now is to visit his site and than he added Ads like crazy all over the page.

I´m very sorry but i call this story the: Biggest, smartest Scam ever

so long...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
It sure is.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] BlastOS:
If you don't know what your are talking about please don't post...

If you was following what Tuxhero is trying to complete you could know Tuxhero real name is Abimanyu and he use his real name for patches releases

To All: Please don't turn this thread in scam like the others. Be patient!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itchy8me:
correct me if i'm wrong.. i believe he goes under the name of G. Abimanyu
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] imtiyazee:
To be frank, i have to agree with you looking at the way things are moving. but still i hope everyone is smart in something which others r not. lets hope for the best & we cant do much bout it, so is the reason why i dont post much.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
I'm still trying to understand........because I looked here

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlackstoneLinux

and here

http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/

It seems that the Android/Linux project is going forward faster than Tux personal project......

I'm saying this because I tryed and tested all releases of all projects and I have to admit that Tux Alpha 0.2 is the slowest, but only because he's working on his own.

Sorry, but I'll make a donation to Tux's "personal" project only when I can see consistent improvements and a clear project.

Sebastiano
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itchy8me:
uggg. someone please restrain me before i wreck this thread! :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lexxi:
Volume UP & Down never really worked. lol@Added Squashfs Support, that really requires skill, wow...

The rest is really a joke after he claimed it´s not a problem for him and that he would do it all alone. Well, that was like 5 month ago?

Don´t get me wrong, i would like to see Android running on our Blackston but what Tux did is a joke and i still call it a scam, period.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] crashDebug:
i really wish some mod repression in this thread. it's getting stupid AGAIN.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] patp:
Perhaps. Ask yourself *why* no-one is developing for this device.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itchy8me:
the only way to stop this (from spawning on a new thread as well) is to settle it. The only way to settle this is to show either that tux has or has not given a substantial/reasonable contribution to the kernel for the blackstone. In my opinion that has already been done and the vote is in favour of him.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] townkat:
tuxhero have the visible merit of making speaker work, the other patches are irelevant to end user at least

someone with nick "yoyey" worked for blackstone in the last few days, i didnt tested it, i saw he was talking also about gsensor, it might be working...also he seem to know what he is doing from what i read, so.. good luck yoyey

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Guys, try to download this....

http://phhusson.free.fr/zImage

Rename the old zImage to zImageTUX and put this new one instead... I did not test all, but i can say the touchscreen is better, and if u pres the "conversation off" botton the screen goes off and then goes on when u press it again... give it a try :)

This is from phh and yoyey.

Now i go back testing it :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Why rename it? May I simply put it in without renaming? Now I'll try it... :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
I suggest to rename the old one in case u want to go back to Tux's... u can do whatever u want, of course...

Anyway i have an update, also bluetooth is turning on, but i did not test it with other devices yet...

Happy to give You all something new to try :) Let's hope to have a stable version soon.

Have fun testing :)

PS: sono italiano anche io :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Hehe now I'm seeing a lot of italians here!

Ah that's ok, I'll rename the old one for backup :D

Are You trying this kernel with Tux Alpha 0.2?

Ti ringrazio davvero per la notizia! Thank You!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lexxi:
i really hope this is directed to me. Well someone had to say what i said.

Your really think no-one is developing for this device bc of ppl like me?

Maybe ppl should stop being blind fanboys and start appreciate what ppl like cr2 and a lot of other ppl did for the whole Andrioid on HTC devices community.

Tux did not do anything important beside claiming he could do bla bla bla and he won´t stop until it´s done...More Donation2Tux plz.

I really hope there are one or more skilled ppl out there who can manage to make Android run on our device but Tux is clearly not one of them, he just was smart enough to make a lot of ppl donate for nothing.

Ppl like Laurentius26 or Miri are really cooking for the community and at least they know what they are doing and they deserve every donation they get.

That is just MY opinion: at least "un-sticky" the post

And to TUX: The next post from you should be something REALLY constructive and no more manipulative BS to make ppl donate for things YOU clearly didn´t do and will never do
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobRedbeard:
I should have written "this thread" not this forum. XDA Developers as a forum is still filled with developers. I think htcpedia is a better end-user forum. But this thread is a few developers and veteran users helping the rest.

Rob
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rhussa_1:
This Image DOES turn LCD off (not fully though as you still some dim light).

It worked for me in rather number of ways:

Pushing End Key turns LCD off. Pushing it again initially would not bring it back ON unless wait for 10+ seconds. If this does not work press Home Key, which puts it on.

But more interestingly it seems to work almost the right way after a while without any change except I played around End Key behaviour in 'SpareParts'.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobRedbeard:
Lexxi - let's get going with the git based community project. I'm spending part of the day driving my camaro around in RaceOn (I love racing simulators) and the other part learning to use HaRET to watch GPIO's. I want to get the htc-linux.org wiki updated with the Blackstone GPIO table. I've noticed it isn't there. CR2 and others have made so many contributions. Even a Blackstone linux is building on work done getting things to work on Raphael. Most of our WM 6.5 stuff is actually comming from the Raph community via Da_G. I agree with you, but I just mean this isn't the place to discuss it. This thread has another purpose. Let's head over to the Blackstone Linux thread and start putting stuff up. I was reading through the sources in the GIT and it seems that the screen stuff is all there, but I've got to learn more to test it. Let's do this.

And it's Laurentius, Miri, and Dutty.
