man sorry this is getting me heated up. Speaking for myself i'd like to say i deeply appreciate what the guys are doing at #htc-linux, infact they've even helped me in doing a bit of tinkering myself. But just like i appreciate what cr2, tmzt, phh and the rest have done, i also appreciate what tux has done and anyone else has done. Just because you haven't heard from the guy in a couple days doesn't mean you should crack him off like that .. wtf man.

and let me just say that defending someones integrity is no reason to call them a fanboy. In that case i might as well call you a hater for questioning that integrity of one of the developers.

Anyways i wouldn't blame the oke if he didn't come back, other developers like xmoo have left this site for similar reasons.

Anyone else tried the new kernel i posted yesterday with the working screen on/off ?

Anyone who can change the botton from "end botton" to "power botton" ?

Did someone tried if bluetooth is really working on this zImage ?

I post again the link to the new zImage:

http://phhusson.free.fr/zImage

I suggest to backup the old zImage before updating with this one, u never know...

Enjoy

PS: grrr i coulded open a new post with title "Super Duper MiT-MiTiK's working Android" and get some donations looooool (just teasing and kidding ghghghg)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsanchez88:
Yeah guys, let's get back on this!! I'm sure there are guys (and girls of course!!) who can give us a hand here. I have no programming skills but I am more then willing to test anything you guys churn out!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] patp:
No, I have been flamed for suggesting the same things as you. In the context of what you've said, why would anyone choose to spend their time on development?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bl@ck:
i played with it today, is similar to tux zimage, just the touch input feels more accurate and doesn't have the annoying problem with touch buttons that if you press them sometimes they just make a longer vibration but don't work and you'll have to press it again.

i couldn't start bluetooth, have to try again later since i forgot to try it from settings, only tried with a widget on my home screen.

long story short? that zImage is better than tux's.

ps: oh, forgot to test 3G and EDGE connection, gonna try it later.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
I aslo think the touch is better, edge is working fine, couse i tried it, i cant say the same for 3g couse where i live there's not 3g coverage :)

By the option i did turn the bluetooth on, but i did not tried it with anything cous atm i have no bluetooth devices to try with it :)

To be more efficient bt works

Display on off works

Phhusson did a great job in diamond project and here too thx to him

I will test calibration with wifi to see what it gives

Cheers
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bjrmd:
LCD off works fine but bluetooth not working for me. Would love to see how the music player sounds with bluetooth or wired headphones. 3G works fine as well. Wifi will not enable.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeanfrederic:
YESSSSS!

Am afraid it does, Tux...

Unfortunately, i ran out of battery :mad:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
I think the very first boot is slower because it's building out some additional stuff.... I'm not certain about this, but suspect this is the case.

Subsequent boots seemed quicker.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] camro:
i have the same card - and it is working.

maybe wrong format of your SD ?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] crashDebug:
much respect mate you finally got it going. I am very happy as neos stated before to point out this thread to all those skeptics which had nothing better to do than saying bad words at you back a coupla months ago.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cvchetan:
well i m sorry if i offended u...

i said really it works cos tht gave me some inspiration to do some experiments n get the data workin...

sorry again..

maybe i was unable to put forth my thoughts...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] evilskanker:
Wow, way to over react.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeanfrederic:
yes, seems it write a new file fsck001,002...005 each time it boots up

worked for me too, but have no idea how. I just went to my network website and asked an sms 3g setting. Then, i launched the APN config and tried by hand. Reboot, and voilà :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] paspa86:
Respect to you mate,

Just tryed with the bundeled sd card.

Work great, very smooth and reactive, i've started to do a little bug report:

Bug Report:

- When trying to play music the sound is very distorted

- Screen Calibration report an unknow error and must tap on terminate

- Camera do the same as Screen Calibration

- Some sound to choose in ringtones and notification sound distorted, other sound fine

- sometimes when tapping the tap is not detected, also when typing on the keyboard (think is a probelm of screen calibration)

- Bluetooth can't be activated

- Had to confirm but when sceen is locked sometimes must press home button 3-4 times to unlock it, tryed tapping and wait but nothing happened

Thing that appear to work fine:

- Tryed a phone call and it works

- Sms works too

I think this is a big step for mankind :D your work is awsome

bye

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bastardop:
Nice job! Very appreciated!

Bug Report:

Back2 testing the new kernel
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
hi men.

I tried mitikos' zimage with the 'ion variant' distro in the wiki and noticed something: end button doesn't really switch of the screen, but it only blanks it. I mean, turns all pixels to black, but backlight keeps on, you can see it in a dark room.

am i right, mitikos?

gonna give it another try and try the bluetooth.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DanMccoy1:
Time And A Place..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Just to open your eyes...

Read the conversation between me (MiT-MiTiK) and phh at

Day 11/14/2009 starts at 14:41...

Do u still want to donate ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
you need to turn backlight to manual in windows mobile
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
ok, it was enabled, so I understand that disabling auto-backlight in winmo gives android the control of it and allows to switch the backlight off when pressing the end button, am I right?

I tried to switch btooth on and wasn't able to. which 'distro' should I use with this zimage?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
That discussion on #htc-linux is just incredible.......... Now, why Tux is missing here in XDA? I can't believe he's joking.....but his project now is no more clear :confused:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itchy8me:
bluetooth is working on this build http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/android-donut_diam-raph-02-11-09.7z

your gonna have to change the startup.txt for the blackstone

sound is great on the bt headphone :-D

edit: oh yeah and the kernel MIT posted
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
We are near to have wifi working :)

Stay tuned!!!

Ps also accelerometer works in the new zImage
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Yes and also wifi should work soon in this version... phh is working on it and my Blackstone is testing it :P

Hope i dont brick it :P
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itchy8me:
shweeet :-D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Just want to make it clear.

This is not my work, phh and yoyey are working on the project and in just one day they make a lot of stuff working.

I'm just makeing it official for u posting what they descover.

My part in it is only doing what phh tells me to do, couse he does not have a Blackstone and i do, and couse i know nothing about hacking and stuff.

I'm just curious and i want to help in some way

Enjoy :)

Ps: also charging seams to be working now. i tried to take the usb off and plug it again and is working!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Mitikos, your purpose is very important :)

You are letting us to know what devs are doing! :)

Now is clear that a "real team" is hardly working to port Android...... and they are going forward well and fast :D

1 question: what release are you using with kernels?

Sebastiano
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
so far i'm using tux's (yeee... tux's) release with the new zImage and a couple of modules phh passed me, also couse my internet is too slow to download others, but i suggest to try also http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/...ph-02-11-09.7z with the last zImage u can find at http://phhusson.free.fr/zImage

fixing the start.txt to work with your Blackstone (i think if u keep the old one it will work aswell)

phh told me is working on a new release and is gonna be ready soon

Anyway if u go on http://irclog.netripper.com/?chan=htc-linux and read the log of today 11/14/2009 u can also try all we tried together yourselves.

Enjoy :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lexxi:
Please let them know that they made a large community very happy and that we are very grateful that they are working on Andriod.

It should be more than clear now that Tux is a) a lousy programmer who just did copy/paste of other ppl work and b) a Scammer.

I hope this teaches a lot of you a lesson not to blindly donate to someone BEFORE he even contributed something real.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Thank You Mitikos! Grazie!

I'm downloading now..... I'll test and report.

Sebastiano
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Hey i dont want this... Tux helped, he just behave in the wrong way, but i dont want to make him seam as he did not do anything at all. I will be very happy if he comes back and help on the project.

Donating is stupid when we dont have a final release...

I repeat if tomorrow Tux comes with HIS perfect working release of android for my phone i will be the first one to donate, but not now, not when is a alpha version
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Roadrunner100:
I gather you have a bandwidth issue. Why not link us up with the mix of phh's recipe, and a wider audience will be able to pass feedback through you, on XDA. It'll move Dev along faster.

tnx
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
I gave you all the links phh gave me, they are 3 or 4 post before this :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aioria:
I download and I try, but when I start haret.exe the blackstone vibrate LCD turn off and nothing.....

you said fixing the start.txt to work with your Blackstone.... but I don't know what I fix in this file.... please fix it for me and I try

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] artie16:
just use the startup.txt from tux! worked for me!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Try this: download the Tux 0.2 alpha in first post.....then copy its "startup" file and use it to overwrite the other startup file...... clear? Let me know if it works, I hope...... :rolleyes:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mitikos:
Did u use tux's release before ?

If yes i think u have to use the same start.txt.

I'm not sure couse i did not try this yet. I will certenly tomorrow.

Anyway a new version might come out tonight, so we will see.

Ps: if u search in the posts before there's a guy who had also blutooth working using this release, try to PM him, maybe he can send u his start.txt.

Sorry if i'm not helpfull right now, but that new version is 69MB and i have a very slow connection, so i will download it tonight while i sleep and try it tomorrow.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
The new release is very smooth and responsive..... but I have a problem now :mad: when the LCD go off it rest off! I press the call down button again but the LCD doesn't turn on :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bl@ck:
try pressing home button instead
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cardefbel:
Pressing the power-on button works for me in this release(but not always). Bluetooth works, I can connect to my headset, but can't hear sound.

Hoping WiFi will come qucik.

i put again the links:

(do not unzip it)

and...

http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/special-diamond-raphael-wifi-bluetooth/calibration

use the old startup.txt from tux

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
You should, as phh said in irc channel, download this http://husson.hd.free.fr/modules-2.6.27-00590-g4e45226-dirty.tar.gz

and this http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/special-diamond-raphael-wifi-bluetooth/calibration

Download these files and put them in the sdcard with the others You downloaded previously. Do not unzip the .tar.gz file.

For me it worked well, but I'm still having the LCD off problem.... :confused:

Before doing the above I had to remove everything from the old tux v0.2 because I was getting an error on boot "failed to find system.img on sd card". The above then worked perfectly. As reported earlier power off works sometimes.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vdude_1:
That has what to do with Android or Rom development? Search the forums and you'll find your answer
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Maybe I wrong, but I think something is missing in Tux "startup" file....... it doesn't work as well in the phh donut release........ We need a donut release with a startup file for Blackstone......:confused:

New version avaiable at

http://www.cobaltcode.com/fileupload/data/Android/BuildUpdates/build-update_donut-1.6_15-11-09.7z

This time is all in one package.

Just keep the old startup.txt frokm tux's version

Downloading now, testing tomorrow

Ps. in this version blutooth works, auto configuration for data connection (this time is android side and not startup.txt side, so should work better for everybody) and accellerometer should work aswell

Enjoy :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Yeah!

I just read it on irc channel!

I'm going to try it, thank you so much guys!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bl@ck:
Nice one, thanks guys for giving this project a re-start :D

btw that download link is giving me the same error that got miniterror, just right click and select "save as...", in firefox instead of "firefox document" select "All files" and fix the file name adding .7z at the end, enjoy ;o

btw gonna test it now, mehhh have to restart again from beginning and reconfigure android :D

ps: phh keep up the good work! and thanks mitikos for asking info and helping him in the irc channel.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
Okeeeey man, testing it.

Bluetooth switches on (couldn't test it with another device), accelerometer works everywere but in desktop (is this normal in android?), auto-language works, screen off works also (but I tried it again, this time with the auto-backlight switched off in winmo, and still looks like it blanks the screen but backlight keeps on) and I'm unable to get Movistar Spain data working.

You Devs, please take a look to this issue, coz it looks like Movistar Spain has something special that prevents their data connection to work with most of blackstone-android 'distros'.

BTW, Wonderful job!!!

**Edit. Looking at backlight again, it seems not to completely switch off, but to attenuate to its minimum level. Power button allows me to switch the screen on, but no off (?)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] auss81:
Yep, this project now is running in the right direction.

I was thinking...... is this the case to open a new post? Because this one started for Tux' project, but now there's another project on the way......so what do you think about?

Sebastiano
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcdull:
is it really an all in one?

the system could not find the initrd.gz ?

To me it worked fine, this package is created to upgrade this release http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/android-donut_diam-raph-02-11-09.7z

You have only to overwrite the "startup.txt" file with the one you can easily find in the Tux release.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobik91:
can somebody help me? i download it and overwrite STARTUP.txt and than i opened HARET but nothing hapened. Any idea?..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bl@ck:
Ok some news while testing this package:

Bluetooth is working perfectly, i switched it on and he can find other phone (tested with a normal nokia) and other phones can see him, nice one really.

3G/EDGE connection works like a charm just i don't see the activity of my connection, the 2 arrows always remain blank but i can use market/browser and sync my google account perfectly.

Looks like screen on/off works but the light doesn't turn off, even with dim light disabled in windows mobile, it just lowers it to the minimum :( w/e i'm happy to see it work atleast.

The touch feels a lot more responsible like in the last try i did with phh zimage and tux 1.5 package.

This package with Android 1.6 runs a lot more smoother than tux's 1.5, i even installed again openhome and ahome to put in some theme and they crash rarely, with tux's 1.5 i was getting a lot of freeze and crash in openhome.

totally approved, try it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bl@ck:
dont' know what stuff you've in your SD Card, but delete all things related to android except for android apps, then copy tux's files in your sdcard root and then overwrite them with phh package, now try to start haret, this should work fine since it did for me :D
