[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Hmm - not sure what could be causing those - the gmail is from tattoo and maps from eclair but the rest is all donut. I'll be posting a new build early next week with a few updates...

How did the 320 x 480 res work out with this build (I suppose I could try it :) )? If you and other folks prefer that res I could have a seperate build for that as well as the native 240 x 320.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Updated to latest donut aosp by enomther - my current personal use build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cocoepiblas:
v242 HeroBlend work with kaiser? thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Not sure - I don't have a kaiser to test with. If other vogue Donut builds have worked for kaiser than this should as well.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
your screenshot shows a little bit of gmail... but you say aosp? I'm a bit confused there :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
How did that get there! Well ok - aosp+ then.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ericbond:
apps

i was just wondering is there anywhere we can go to download android apps to our computers then put them into the androidapps folder ourselves? i get bored of re-downloading apps when switching builds and data files.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
create androidapps folder on root of your sdcard and put all apps with names without spaces..that should automatically install apps in your data file.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ericbond:
yeah i know to do that, im asking if theres any website i can get a hold of the apk files from my comp
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Giggles 312:
has anyone tested flashing this with 320x480 ... i hope the lcd.denstiy is 160 cause if i flash 320x480 then it'll be tiny tiny tiny! :D

p.s hows does this build run? smooth and stable? or choppy and laggy?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Haven't. Found a sitw that. Has all/many market apps. Best bet is to backup your favourite apps with astro to your sd.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ericbond:
okay thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheColorRed:
I'm really liking this one, Much more than the Eclair themed one.

This one is also extremely fast (in my opinion)

Thanks :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ericbond:
yeah i meant to say this build is probably one of the fastest ive tried so far

great job
[Touch CDMA Android Development] brunes:
GPS Acceleration?

So, turn by turn does not work since libgps driver does not provide acceleration. But it seems to be this would be easy to fix, as it is simple to calculate acceleration based on measuring GPS on a clock.

Is anyone already working on this problem? If not, can anyone point me to where the heck I can find the source code for this patched libgps.so kernel module so I can try to fix it myself by comparing it to the git repository?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cocoepiblas:
Thaks, I have a kaiser to test with and work very well (240x320) but sometimes crash.

GPS work wity vogue?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I wonder why the crash with Kaiser...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bandur:
works great on Kaiser for me

This builds works great for me on Kaiser. No Crashes since I installed it yesterday. I miss the facebook app, and gmail does not scale right - other than that it may be the best working build for me - Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cocoepiblas:
For now I have always crashed, with three or four I have tested rom. Always end up not returning from suspend (Donut 1.6, Ion, Eclair .... and this)

I tried all the possible options in the default.txt

I have not formatted the card only for android, could that be the problem? (sorry for my bad english)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Are u running at 240x320? The gmail app should be fine at that res.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] scramiro:
calls crash

hi,

i have polaris and everything ok except sometime calls crash and i have to boot and execute haret again.

any idea?

thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ritzky:
this is probably the fastest build around, good job.. Anyway, is anyone else have battery indicator problem? mine only shows around 65-67% even though the battery is fully charged. cant seems to past 67%. Is there anyway to calibrate or configure battery indicator? thx
[Touch CDMA Android Development] stickus:
Google search is your friend. There are lots of Mediafire and other links that can be dug up with a carefully crafted search :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
love this build plemen. fast, contact pics in the contact list, great build. one thing I've noticed; with 242 eclair themed, my home would not reload (seemed to be immune to being booted from the memory). this one, the home screen reloads at times. don't mind much, just thought preventing home from reloading in 242 eclair themed was a nice touch. thx for your work!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
This is my favorite build for sure. Any news on MMS?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
US users note version without maps on first post, use this for better Google navigation.just download Google maps from the market. You will need a fresh data file if running from the sd card, or if running from nand/ext2 and using the previous heroblend 2.4.2 run the commands listed at the link below before switching your system.sqsh.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5233710&postcount=42
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Are you still getting the home screen reloads? You're using straight haret with sqsh if I recall correctly and you would be using the same donut.conf for both 242 eclair and 242 heroblend. I'm running with an ext2 partition with haret and haven't experienced this...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
No screen re-loads for me at all. I'm running from NAND no partitions class 6 microsd. The only thing I have trouble with is not being able to get my location settings that some apps look for. Does this have to do w/ GPS? I'm with Verizon.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
You are correct. You know, I haven't experienced it lately, maybe the new system? Also it was infrequent and I don't keep much on my home screen, so doesn't bother me.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Nick N:
I like it. Very nice.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] stickus:
First, I absolutely love this build. Been using it for a few weeks now,I've found it fast and it looks fantastic. My roommate just picked up the LG Eve thru Rogers and he's jelous that my phone looks better than his. :) Only issue I have found with this build have been the occasional home screen reload (mostly when I'm running a memory hungry app of some sort) and that the contact last has issues with sorting by the right letter when I use the thumb scrolling tab. I know you posted a fix for the contact list issue for your Eclair themed build, what are the odds of that coming to this build?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] krwilson:
After much reading I am missing something. I had my phone flashed with the above ROM image but changed back to NSFans's after playing a bit. BUT, I would like to try your's plemen, I just am missing what I do with the heroblend.sqsh. Thanks and I hope I can try this, looks good.

Anyone point me in the right direction???
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Unzip this to your sdcard - you will end up with a folder called android with all of the necessary files. Run Haret.exe and remember to you need to reboot once after everything is loaded for Data to work.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/okmixmmmnn2/android.zip
[Touch CDMA Android Development] krwilson:
Thank you Plemen, this is great to be able to use WM or Android. One problem is I cannot get PdaNet to work??? I plug in the phone with it's USB cable, the phone acknowledges this when running Android but the drivers will just not install correctly??? Any ideas or thoughts, not sure if you tether with USB. I tried the phone on XP SP2, VISTA SP2 and Win7, all with the same problem of not completing the drivers install because it won't recognize the phone.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
Try re-installing PDANet... http://www.junefabrics.com/android/
[Touch CDMA Android Development] krwilson:
I've tried re-installing it many, many times, thanks. Just won't take???
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
edit - bad info
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
I tried this running this ROM using the all the files listed on page 1 but during setup, my installation stops at the androidpower: wakeup stage. It keeps on looping that over and over. I have 3 partitions on my sdcard (FAT32, 2 x ext2). Anyone know why this is happening? The same thing happened with another build as well.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Are you pressing voldn when prompted to upgrade your partition?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I noticed this too - if I use the picture contacts with this theme for some odd reason the letter scrolling is off; it works perfectly with the non-picture contacts. I'm in the process of hunting down the issue...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
Yes I did press Voldn but its still doing the same thing. One more thing, the ext2 partitions, do they have to be primary or extended? I have them as primary right now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I have one primary ext2 and one fat32 partition - when I want to load a new rom I put the system.sqsh file in /sdcard/android. When I run Haret it will prompt once to press voldn to enter the Android utilities and then one more time to upgrade the system (voldn once, wait voldn again).

I'm pretty sure I've tried 2 ext2 parts in the past but was a while ago - have you ever had a working system with your current partition configuration?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
I always had success with running it off just the FAT32 partition and then I read in some posts that the ROM will run alot quicker if there is a ext2 partition as well. So I decided to try it and that's where I'm getting the androidpower: wakeup loop happening.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] abc321:
I'm new to running Android on my Vogue, so please excuse my questions. Does bluetooth not work for this build? Are there any builds where bluetooth works?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
I could be mistaken, but I think the rootfs.img file is what contains the necessary code to make bluetooth work. There is no full bluetooth capability yet though in the project. At one point there was partial bluetooth and some people got it to work with a few devices, but nothing solid or worth counting on. I do believe its still in the works though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
Can someone post the build.prop? my adb is acting up...tnx
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Which build.prop are you looking for?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
I've been trying all sorts of builds but for some reason or another I always end up back to this one LOL :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
I've been happy with the eclair version - what is different between the two exactly?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
Afaik just the theme.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Thats right - everything is the same except for the theme.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
cool, thanks :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
This is my fav. build by far.

Just wondering if anyone else's build is freezing when you hang up from phone calls. It doesn't happen every single time but lately its been happening a lot more than usual.

Anyone?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
The only thing I notice is that everyonce in a while I'll get a call and not be able to answer it. The ringtone will keep looping until I reset the phone. It's only happened like 3 times in 3 weeks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
Are you two using the 2010-1-6 .nbh from dzo's site?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
my nbh is older, from sometime in december, I haven't flashed it for a long time. Should I update my kernel?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
I had similar problem, after updating kernel, it has GONE away completely.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
Mine was also an older nbh...So is the 1/6/2010 is the nbh ya'll recommend?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
yes, do some reading, it was released to fix the lockup problem. does anyone read around here? :confused:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
I read plenty. My problem was not anything that I was real concerned about. It happened 3 times in three weeks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
It was a significant problem for me,

I flashed the 1/6 today so I probably won't have issues anymore! (hopefully).

I did search this thread as I thought the freezing was related to this build. There was no results in this thread.

Sorry Tatnai I don't spend every hour reading updated threads.

Thanks for the help, anyways.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] timbewolf007:
I too am having the same problems as CyCLoBoT, any recommendations?

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] skydirt:
Any word on when this build will get java?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] shadoslayer:
Hey folks,

I've been toying around with different builds on my vogue, and decided to stick with this one for debugging. I am running into a problem though, and hopefully someone can offer suggestions.

Anyone who has been following my posts knows I have been having issues writing to nand with my stubborn bell vogue. Well, with the latest kernel, it worked, and I am able to boot up this build. Progress! :)

The problem is, the phone completely locks up during the android setup phase. If I'm really quick and skip the tutorial and setting up the google account, I can make it to date & time settings, then it freezes.

I'm using the latest version of this build, along with the blank data.img from the first page. I'm using rootfs from 2009-12-15 as the main page suggested. I'm also using the latest kernel with the correct resolution for this build.

The only bit of debugging information I can give at this time is I always run into:

"mdp irq already on 4 4"

"mdp_dma_to_mddi: busy"

"kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt"

This is a kernel message, and might be unrelated to the problem I'm having getting through setup, but in the interest of full disclosure, its here...

Thanks!

Shado

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Shado
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bri3d:
Shado,

Did you flash the very latest 06-01-10 NBH? It fixes an issue that looks suspiciously like yours.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] shadoslayer:
Yep. I have no choice because any nbh older than the newest one doesn't work on my vogue at all.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Irishpride:
Is it possible to download an Android theme like the ones found on this site and apply it to this build?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] PaceyWhitter:
Note, the newest nbh, (1-19) seems to break the GPS in this build, but the 1-14- works great.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
Quick question. I had been using this build for a few months and it was very snappy and I loved it. I wanted to just try out a diff. build so I changed it, that build was laggy so I came back to this build.

I am finding it to be laggy also. When I look at Task Killer there is only 15-20 megs of ram whereas it used to be almost 40.

Did I so something wrong when I reinstalled it? Do we need a donut.conf file? Any advice? (Running from NAND)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
Okay I flashed windows, then I reflashed android with a clear SD card and its all good now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
New version on first post - comments/suggestions welcome.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] stickus:
Do we need a fresh data image/partition to use this?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Electroz:
Just installed... Not getting a data connection. I'm on the Bell Network in Canada. Any suggestions? modem says it's connected but isn't listing any info. Data worked fine in MYN's newest build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
have you rebooted?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Electroz:
Worked like a charm. thanks...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
no problem, it's a slight....bug i guess with plemen builds, you have to reboot after install to have the data working.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Electroz:
When I turn on Bluetooth, my blue light starts blinking, but the system doesn't think it's on. It doesn't give me the option to turn it off, just on again.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
You need to update your rootfs, too, not just your system image.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Electroz:
Looks like I put the new rootfs with just the GPS libs and no bluetooth on there. My bad. Thanks again...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Electroz:
Everything's now running and working great. I'm running from NAND. I installed Google Maps, but I am unable to get a GPS lock. It's just constantly searching. Any ideas? I have Jam's NBH installed and the 5.0+Bluetooth rootfs. Anything I'm missing?

Edit: Got it working. I was using the wrong NBH. There's 3 different ones in the thread linked. Make sure you get the ones from post #48 on page 5
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
The new rootfs is dated 1-7-10?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Ignore the date - I mounted the rootfs and added libgps 5 and the Bluetooth init this morning. I guess this method doesn't change the file date. Been using it all day.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
ok thanks bro...:)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
I blanked my sd. Put a new data.img the 5.0 rootfs and the new system sqsh and the 3 blank files. Flashed jamezelles new 240x320 nbh and everything started. I could not setup my google account because I did not have a data connection. Soft reset. Now I get init: Unable to open persistent property directory /data/property errno: 2... anyone else seen this also? I did not use a conf or media folder.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Electroz:
did you press volume down to start the android installer to get it to make a data partition?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
nope i started with a blank one
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I should have provided more instructions in my post. I'm using vilord's rootfs with new libgps and bluetooth init. This rootfs uses a menu (voldn) to load rootfs and system.sqsh to nand memory.

Sooo please make sure you press voldn when prompted while booting - the first time it will notice you have a new rootfs and load that to nand; next boot press voldn again to load the sqsh to memory - it will prompt you to backup existing data, empty the data and/or load data.img from sdcard.

Try this and let me know if it works. Going to crosspost this to the Eclair thread.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] chourmovs:
can you make a unique pack with all your files included ??

anyway, i can't have this one working on my polaris 100 using haret

tactile doesn't work after install when i've to press android logo

can you help ?

thank you

Vincent
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
haha oops I accidentally installed this version as opposed to eclair - they are both the same just the skin is different right? It's pretty I think I'll stick with it.

Everything is great... with the addition of bluetooth, legit GPS, and the speed that this build has, I feel like I can really say that I have an "android phone"

My one single issue is I really don't like tunewiki. I vastly prefer the standard music app but that's just me - I know Tunewiki is very well received but I guess I'm old school. Another weird thing was at one point I was doing multiple things and the media sound just turned off completely, regardless of the volume.. required a reboot. No biggie, just had to report my single issue lol. Is there any way to download an .apk for standard music?

Thanks again for a great build!!!

:) :) :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
I'm a bad, bad, bad boy... I don't like messing with voldn so I just put the 3 blank files and it seems to work fine :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Yes - that is the other way to do it; if anybody has any issues follow berardi's lead and add 3 blank files to your sd alongside these files: systemfstonand, rootfstonand and optionally - datafstonand.

About Tunewiki - I was using it for a bit and liked how it looked up lyrics and connects to last.fm and shoutcast... and it works at 240x320. Anybody have any suggestions for a better media app?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
As far as third party media apps, I've seen a few people who love Meridian Player - it seems pretty good but I still prefer the default android one because it's so finger friendly and utilitarian.

Is the Default something that has to be integrated into the build or can I just add the .apk? I don't wanna change the build for everyone, since I'm sure a bunch of people appreciate Tunewiki. It was one of the coolest things about Android when it first came out I remember :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
Love your builds plemen, the fastest and the best. Imho.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
Quick question.

I have been monitoring my memory usage with a task manager and I noticed that when I boot up its around 45Megs, and if i kill apps it goes back to 45.

However after awhile the free space starts getting lower, even though no apps are running.

Does anyone know whats up with that? And how to get it back without rebooting?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
i originally switched from this to eclair because i was having major speed issues on it, are any of you running a conf or anything?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
I just switched to Vilord's tattoo build, but i still prefer this one. hopefully plemen uploads a new build based on the new non rootfs nand method. I have problems with the other method.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
norootfs tarball added to first post.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mfpreach:
Thanks plemen!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] stickus:
Sweet! I'd been trying to roll my own with limited success. Thanks a bundle for this!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] weezertom:
hey

is it just me or does it seem like the Dec 22 build of all the Donut AOSP builds is a lot faster than the current one?.. The old one was a lot faster opening up programs and menus.. the new one seems to lag a bit.. i'm using the newest builds with the newest nbh.. would an older nbh make it go faster? or is it the system that is slower?

I'm interested in the fast nand build of android.. it doesn't need to have any hero frills or anything.. just speed and stability.. can anyone point me in that direction?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I noticed a little slow down as well - clear the dalvik-cache and let it recreate; sped things back up for me.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] weezertom:
thanks for the reply plemen.. i don't think clearing the cache would do much.. i'm not talking about the phone slowing down after days of use.. it seems it's slower right from the get go.. it can't compete with the older build in terms of speed.. you have the fastest roms from what i can see plemen but i think your old one was the fastest for opening files, launching applications etc.. is there any way to get your older files? Also, does the nbh file have an impact on speed or is it just compatibility?

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I can post the old one back but I am finding this one is just as fast and it fixes a few bugs; if you're using an old data file you must clear the dalvik-cache. Here is a quick descrition for dalvik-cache:

When Android starts up, the DalvikVM looks thru all of your applications (.apk files) and frameworks, and builds a tree of dependencies. It uses this dependency tree to optimize the bytecode for every application and stores it in the Dalvik cache. The applications are then run using the optimized bytecode.

Try it and let me know if it speeds up for you. Right now this is the fastest build I've used...
