[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] juandiego II:
Hi,

i want to upgrade my HTC TyTN II to Windows mobile 6.5. My device is a MDA Vario III fron the german Telekom with Windows Mobile 6.0. Can everbody help me. I have downloaded the file from the forum 20 Oct 2009 - shifu V4.1 WWE released!!

If i started the ROM Utility in the first steps everthing is ok. Then the device displaya red green blue (3 segments) with USB. A minute later a new screen comes with 0%. And her stops the device.

Can everbody send me a TODO list with links to Files. Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
What did the sticky tell you? I just wondered because there are step by step instructions out there (and easy to find) so maybe you should take some of your time and look for this info yourself.

People have spent a lot of their personal time to provide you with great material, so the least you can do is look before asking.

[Resources] Flashing Your First Kaiser Rom (For Noobs)

In future please use the search & read stickys.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] juandiego II:
Thanks for your answer

I have read all the instructions. So I have a connection between my computer and the MDA. Maybe you can say me what is the problem that the device after the blue green red diplay no begins to flash and always 0% in teh display is.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mister B:
Have you installed HardSPL before attempting the flash ?

The ROM cook recommends HardSPL v3.29 & also flashing to a generic HTC ROM before flashing to the 6.5 ROM can be a good idea.

Read Kaiser Wiki & Shifu ROM install notes.

Note: If you are going to run motoblur on multiple devices (like two G1s or a G1 and a Cliq) do not sure the same account. Motorola doesn't like that.

I still get that stupid Text Message error upon signing in and every few minutes thereafter ("invalid 10-digit number"). I'm on a MyTouch and my carrier is AT&T. This makes the rom unusable in my opinion. Hoping someone can figure that out.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
This type of fix would require a dev w/ a mytouch. I know I don't have one so can't help bugfix that issue. I would guess it would have to deal w/ ril binary that handles radio communication. Or perpaps a build.prop fix.

Try this,

adb remount
adb shell mv /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak
adb shell mv /system/build.sapphire.prop /system/build.prop
adb shell reboot

[G1 Android Development] terr:
I think the message is from the voicemail app that is installed with the rom. I just start a task manager app and kill it, no more messages.

I think the next release should get rid of that app (voicemail) and the fav 5 app (or something). These will not work for ATT (what I have). Im going to try to remove them and resign the rom to see if it really gets rid of that message.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
You could just delete them from the rom once you have it installed. Much easier than the other way.

However, I will probably delete them in the next release. I don't use them either.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
To get rid of those apps

adb shell rm /data/app_s/VisualVoicemail.apk
adb shell rm /data/dalvik-cache/*VisualVoicemail*

I don't see MyFav app on this rom but you could always remove it via Settings->Applications->Manage

[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
this signifies that you did NOT do a complete wipe. I just got through flashing this ROM from a complete wipe and it works beautifully.

Please do a complete wipe of your /system/sd partition and wipe of your data partition. then flash the ROM
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I would say "try" bfs-302 only if you can find a kernel that was cooked specifically for trout/sapphire board. Every single kernel floating around on here with bfs has been compiled for halibut/sapphire which means it does not have the right modules for the Dream/G1.

You will need Linux and the android sdk. Get both of those and once you have a strong grasp of each hit me up on PM and I'll give u some pointers.
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
I have the sdk.

But Linux? The OS? I have vista lol.

[ROM] Motorola Blur / S-Blur_1.07

bt doesnt work on mine
[G1 Android Development] adrake400:
only problems for me include:

Camera/comcorder (i have rebooted phone and i still get not enough memory or something like that)

Browser (but the use of steel as a sub will wrk)

but other than that alot faster than 1.6!

good job :)
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Camera is a known issue but the browser should work fine.
[G1 Android Development] TabascoTX:
Thats the only issue im seeing so far is Bt, and of course wifi. But other that that its fast as hell, gallery works and everything,no FC so far in anypart of the rom. This is awesome stuff. Kick A** job Guys.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
BT seems to be linked to issues with the ramdisk. It should be an easy fix though. An update will probably be pushed out tomorrow.
[G1 Android Development] TabascoTX:
No worries, i know you guys got it. My thought is, Anyone that *****es about something a ROM does or doesnt do or is whining about a ROM, should try and build one themsleves. Just my two cents. So your not gonna hear me complain, just sayin...:D
[G1 Android Development] TabascoTX:
So far,no major issues,reboots or force closes. Stable and fast as hell. It runs as if it were meant for the G1 all along. This is kickass.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I'll fix BT today
[G1 Android Development] TabascoTX:
No worries, its an awesome a ROM as it is so far, BT is just extra icing on the cake... :cool:

Bug Report

On my MT3G with ver 1.07, seems the Alarm Clock plays all alarms very low at max volume. When I slide the bar to shut the alarm off, for a split sec, the sound gets louder right before shutting off. I've tried this with both sounds build into the rom and with sounds for my SD Card, both do this.

Configuration/Phone Model: S-Blur_1.071 - Bluetooth..G1,rooted, Hard SPL,current radio/26I ,3 partions formatted prior to install Fat/Swap/Ext2.

Issue(s):Speaker doesn't work during a call. Headphones don't work during a call or audio playback however you can hang up a call using the remote button on the adapter.

Can you read the first post and follow the bug report guidelines? There are other posts in this thread to use as a reference as well.

[G1 Android Development] jasonmlit:
Has anyone gotten the navigation with google maps from eclaire to work on this rom? Anytime I try, my phone won't connect to a mobile network, which means no phone calls, which kind of defeats the purpose of having a phone.
[G1 Android Development] socialenemy2007:
what exactly did you fix? bluetooth file sharing or actually being able to use the bluetooth headset to make a call?
[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
From what I understand, Blur is a 1.5 ROM, and the Google Nav workaround requires 1.6+. I tried and failed as well before I knew. I was able to get it to install, but Maps would FC when run, and after transferring the stock *.props back and rebooting, Maps was no longer in the app drawer. It was a fun 30 minutes.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
To make a call. Android doesn't have native obex support in 1.5. But there are apps in the market that let you share files.
[G1 Android Development] socialenemy2007:
cool. I dont care about filesharing, just want to be able to use the headset. cant seem to log on to motoblur servers during setup though been trying for 2 hours keeps timing out. :(

*EDIT* Got through this morning. Pretty neat so far. Pretty fast and I haven't even setup swapper or overclockwidget. I'll keep ya updated Persians. Working great so far on MT3G.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:

[G1 Android Development] da0ne:
i dont know if it was mention before but when i tried to switch from handset to speakerphone it didnt work i will try another call to see if it continues sorry im on a mt3g
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Yes this is a known issue, not sure if it is a Blur issue or an update to this ROM that caused it. Please read the first post in this thread for the proper way to submit bug reports. It's important b/c it helps us devs get all the info we need to debug a problem. Otherwise saying "speakerphone doesn't work" doesn't tell me which version of Blur ur running nor does it provide me w/ any logs detailing the issue.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
all I need is a 2.6.29.6 kernel compiled for the G1/MT3G w/ no BFS and we'll have camera back. Waiting on a kernel cooker to provide this to me. All the ones floating on XDA do not fit this requirement.
[G1 Android Development] daddy4life83:
sounds great!cant wait love the way motoblur pushes everything to the phone
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Quick Question

So are people using the non-wipe updates that we post here? Are they useful? Or are most people using the full-wipe updates?
[G1 Android Development] johnp888:
1.071 is the first blur rom i'm trying. it's pretty cool. i would prefer a nowipe update when a new version comes out. thanks for all your hard work, along with the other devs working on this!
[G1 Android Development] r_dub:
Hey something i noticed im running 1.071 nowipe on my g1 the apps to sd script needs to be tweakd the orginal moto apps are still in system/app should probably be bumped to system/sd/app_s so without that right now I have 12mbs of internal used to be 40 not great but a lot better
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
The reason I kept the system apps on the internal flash is b/c there is no point in leaving all this space on /system for no reason. I never could figure out why people wanted to see a large number when they did "df" for /system. I decided it's better to keep the system apps on the internal flash as they are heavily used and would be a better fit there.

Think about it this way, if you move them to the sdcard, then you have user apps, system apps, dalvik-cache, and swap fighting for I/O on the sdcard. Not a good thing and actually slows down the phone.
[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
I prefer no-wipe whenever possible. Even better, a way to implement fixes manually when possible too.

BTW, amazing work on 1.071. I would like to learn this stuff someday, time permitting.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Good :)

Elaborate further.

Spread your learning out over a long period, I have tons on my plate w/ work & family and still found time to learn.
[G1 Android Development] socialenemy2007:
dude

USA Tmobile MT3G with S-Blur 1.071. Running smooth, no FCs so far, bluetooth headset working great, pretty fast ROM man. No loading when going back to home like most HERO roms. I'm sold on this ROM as soon as camera is working.

So whos butt do we gotta kick to get the kernel you need for the camera :P j/k

anyways, keep up the good work.

and to answer your question, i'm with everyone else here, I'd rather see No wipe updates unless it couldn't be avoided.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Ok then I'll continue the no-wipe updates. Just wanted to make sure people were using them.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
everyone loves no-wipe updates :D we just get soooo used to always having to erase the EXT partition and wipe............. i hope i'm not just speaking for myself???

so bluetooth works on all the 2.0 stuff right? just hero/sense UI has the problems?
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
This is not a 2.0 rom. This is a motoblur rom. Please ask questions about certain roms in their respective threads
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
WOW FAIL my bad -.- sorry. no wait but isn't blur based off of 2.0 and thus should be similar at least?
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
No Blur is based off 1.5 and Motorola stated they don't have any plans on merging it with the 1.6/2.0 branch.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
WOW ok majorly epic fail on my part sorry. maybe i should read the title and OP before posting ;) must have read it wrong
[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
What I meant by "a way to implement fixes manually", if a fix only requires pushing, removing, replacing, or editing files, i would prefer to do those manually. Sort of a learning experience. If I knew how to do everything, believe me, I would be right there in the trenches with you sir.

That is good advice. Problem is, I don't really know where to start. I now only run Ubuntu as a Virtualbox guest on a Windows host instead of a standalone box, because it can handle the few small things that I've occasionally need Linux for. I did go through the process of building the Android source a few months back on Ubuntu, but I have not delved any further into it since.

I would really like to learn slowly but surely. Where do you think I should logically pick-up from here?
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Inside each of the no-wipe updates is a folder named "META-INF" and inside there folders com/google/android and in there a file named update-script. Open it with notepad in windows or just "cat update-script" in Linux to view the file. It explains in plain-text exactly what the procedures are.

As far as pointers hit me on PM so we can keep this thread clean.

ummmm...

i apologize first if this has been state before...237 post is too much for me to go through before work...lol!

i tried the latest update and found that when i installed i was left with 32mb of internal memory...is that normal?

i did this in order:

wipe

wipe sd

wipe dalvik

fix/repair files

wiped again

installed

i then used backup for root and got an error that i had no more internal memory and that apps wouldnt work properly

anyone else run into the same issue?

is this ROM just that big that it takes up that much space?
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Yes this is a known problem that can be fixed with a new kernel that I'm waiting on. Glad to hear you like it. Please read the first post in this thread for the proper way to report bugs, thanks.

And yes using the stock card will DEFINITELY give you slower speeds. Make sure you're using ext2 & not ext3 for the linux partition. Get a class 6 card and you'll be golden like the rest of us

[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Happenings works perfectly fine. This issue is isolated to your phone/installation. You'll need to debug what issue you might be happening by looking at your logs and seeing why it's failing
[G1 Android Development] hyoungluv:
thank you :)....lol im not sure of how to do that
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Flashing a ROM is always half the battle, the other half is being able to debug issues that only YOU are having. Download the Android 1.5r3 SDK, connect your phone to your computer via usb, and double click ddms.exe and woila, there are your logs. I'd suggest using the search feature on XDA or hopping on Google as they have EXTENSIVE information on their Android product.

I would have to jokingly say that your request of getting wifi working would be the equivalent of asking a dog to **** in the toilet. The dog wants to **** in the toilet, but just doesn't know how yet.

[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
Has anyone else had problems with the screen staying awake while using this rom?

I seem to be having a problem with Blur not understanding that using the touch screen warrants keeping the screen on, eg typing a quick reply with the VK when the screen will turn off mid-typing. It's very strange and it seems that it is rom wide, so to speak, being that it occurs no matter what program is open.

I will edit this soon after logcat and ddms are run.

That is a common issue that pokes its head from time to time in ALL roms. I've noticed it in the new cyanogens occasionally as well some hero roms. I don't think anyone is 100% sure what causes it yet.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
You can fix it by doing this

adb shell chmod 771 /system/sd/app
adb shell chown 1000.1000 /system/sd/app
adb shell chmod 771 /data/app_s
adb shell chown 1000.1000 /data/app_s
