The client seems quite stable now. Anybody here with a few weeks of experience? (Preferably in an area with bad coverage).

How well does it do, without user interaction, in creating the road network? (as shown in http://world.waze.com/guided_tour/ => "Behind the Scene")

I tried it for a few days but could not resist fixing the errors on my own since I wanted to have my most important route functional to test how well it gives voice directions. I did not manage to do much driving on other routes yet. As far as I have seen, driving a road two or three times is not enough for the automatic routines, i.e. it still has many gaps. Will it actually work (fixing all gaps, creating intersections, etc.) if I drive it like 10 times or more? Or will I rather end up having 3 parallel roads (due to GPS inaccuracy) if I limit my contribution to activate "record new roads" when I drive incomplete routes?

I hope there are users with waze-experience here. I could of course ask in the waze forums but I think that here at XDA is the better place to get an accurate (=non fanboy) response.
[G1 Apps and Games] :
to be honest, i just downloaded this app today. i hate and love it so much. It is extremely useful, but it seems like nobody in my city uses the app so the directions it gives me are horrible. It's VERY laggy and kills the battery so fast. But I can't resist it because I want to try to see if it actually starts to improve if I stick with it. Sucks that I bought a Garmin the other day too lol. I'm running a rooted 1.5 CLIQ (which is why I just got tired of waiting on google maps navigation)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] msg928:
Hi, is there a simple registry edit to switch AT&T's keyboard layout (number pad) to original TP2's layout (number row)?

I recall that this is possible with Fuze by changing

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CWSLayout (0 for Touch Pro, 1 for Fuze) and soft reset.

I tried this on Tilt2, but it doesn't seem to work?

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DLTempler:
Not that I know what I am talking about but flashing the ROM has been said in some threads to do that. I was thinking about your question and some of the others who need the "keyboard" fix after a ROM flash. Maybe the thing to do is just switch out the keyboard after a flash. Since I had do dismantle my original Tilt to replace the keyboard I found it to be not that big a deal.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fade2black101:
is there anywhere to purchase an unbranded silver touch pro 2 replacement keyboard? been looking everywhere but cant seem to find one which is strange!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Toleraen:
Change to:

HKLM\software\tegic\et9\IME\keyboardlayoufiles

Value: 07FF

Data: eT9.Rhodium.www.kmap.txt

in addition to the above mentioned cwslayout key.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] msg928:
It works! Thanks a ton! For future reference:

To swap between Touch Pro 2 and Tilt 2 keyboard layout, change the following two registries:

HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD

Name: CWSLayout

Data: 0 -> Touch Pro 2

Data: 1 -> Tilt 2

HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles

Name: 07FF

Data: eT9.Rhodium.wwe.kmap.txt-> Touch Pro 2

Data: eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt -> Tilt 2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Montecristo:
For me not works... I haven´t CWSLayout in my registry.:(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] msg928:
>> HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD

>> Name: CWSLayout

>> Data: 0 -> Touch Pro 2

>> Data: 1 -> Tilt 2

Actually, the above part is not even needed. Can someone clarify what does the CWSLayout registry do?

With that said, I ended up creating a eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US_MOD.kmap.txt in \Windows and set HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles\07FF to eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US_MOD.kmap.txt

It's quite simple - I simply remap the top row to numbers.

Good luck, pal!

a quick question

a quick question before this thread get swamped aswell. can u guys actually USE android. because i cant and not because of not trying. i can rin everything fine. its just that its so SLOOOWWW. u think my sd card has something to do with it. i got an 8GB class 4. shld i get a smaller 1 or 2 gb one. will that speed it up. its takes FAAAR too long to load ANYHTING. contact list, SETTINGS MENU etc. even on ion ( though its MUCH FASTER THAN HERO)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tyeo098:
Everything is running pretty well on my ION build.

Try partitioning the card into 2 4gb sections, or 2 2gb's and a 4gb.

Although, since the data.img is the actual 'hdd' of the phone, there should be no reason why it makes a difference.

Also, make sure you delete your data.img when you run a new build, or thatll mess everything up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Coonazz:
ok , if I was to partition the sd into 2,2,4 which section would the files go into, or would it matter? right now I'm using kb7sqi from 10/18, runs great, no camera, but wifi, calls, e-mail, text,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tyeo098:
The camera only works on ION builds. the kb7sqi is a HERO build.

Put it in one of the 2gb parts, but i suggest you try the ION build above first.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Tutungzone:
Great Thread...

Tyeo098... I have been playing around with the ION and Hero builds for a while and have run into some issues until now... THANK you for this thread, hopefully we will keep it updated!

Only question I have that I see in these configs and did not see in others... my resolution looks grainy, or pixelated. Any reason why I would be seeing this on my Kaiser (ATT Tilt)? I have tried both the ION and Hero version you have posted and both do the same thing, so I am thinking it is something in the default config file. Looks like the default has the correct data settings, so I do not need to change it, and it seems to work fine other than the resolution looking sloppy. And help with this would be VERY appreciated.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tyeo098:
The problem is with the htc-paneltype option in the default.txt

Cange it from 2 to 1 and it should be fine.

Also, yes I set up the data for ATT not TMOBILE.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Tutungzone:
Exchange feature...

Ok... I tried the change in the panel type and it seems to work beautifully... actually changed from 1 to 2, as the default in the file is 1, thank you for that.

My next question is about functionality of the different builds. I like the ION build obviously for the speed of the build (very fast compared to other builds) but there is one function in the hero build that I miss most... the exchange functionality. Hero has an exchange client built in, and I was wondering if there is something for ION that does the same, or can be added via Market or something. The exchange feature is the only thing that keeps me from using the ION build full time.

Let me know if there is something I need to do to get it, or if I just have to live with the speed loss in Hero. Unless partitioning the SD Card offers that much more speed that I could usably have Hero as the facto OS of choice. What has been your experience?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] tyeo098:
Im pretty sure the Market has an exchange client.

Ive never really used exchange, and Im stil unsure of what it does. I havent needed it until now, so im pretty sure I wont need it for a while.

And the slowness of Hero is mistly due to the UI's (blurry, moto, etc) while ION has the default UI, which makes it snappier.

My SD idea was based on the fact that I thought it ran of the SD card, but I forgot that the OS lives inside of data.img so Part-ing wouldnt have any effect.

Check out the Market, they have some pretty nice apps, and like 90% of them are free. (the first thing i did was install the weather app and added it under my clock :D )
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Cryos:
Any of you get the issue where it says Incorrect pin code even if you enter the right one ?

Edit: Fixed it by removing pin code :)

Seems pretty cool sofar
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Tutungzone:
Just a reminder for Noobs...

Remember that Android is in Development, as the porting of the OS still has issues.

Also... before anyone asks, when you first start using Android, or start it up... make a call to set the correct call settings. If you do not you may have some issues with incoming calls... just an FYI.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
You can also up the resolution to make the grainy part go away (previous question), I use

middi.width=320 middi.height=480 lcd.density=160

This will also make the menus fit the screen better.

I saw a post saying that you can rip the exchange part out of the rogers and hero builds, but have yet figured out how to really do that. If I do, I'll post how to. If sopmeone else figures it out, please let me know.

As for the market program, it costs; since it is free on Hero and rogers I agree that it would be nice to have as a cab.

wifi issues

Having some issue with wifi (as with the latest builds). It connects but most of the time I can't browse. Sometimes I am able to browse the internet but I have to be persistent coz most of the time I can't. Google maps uploads maps and then says it lost data connection, retrying. I have an Open network. Had to go back to 9/13 build by scarlet-arrow (I think). Any help would be appreciated.

GPS works with 1.5 but NOT with 1.6

What files did you edit to get GPS working for you?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] idumych:
Anyone have calls working fully? I've had the same issue consistantly across several builds. I'd tried the doughnut and ion packs from this threads as is, with new kernels, and several other combinations with no effect. I am happy to report that with rootfs-14-11-09.img I finally have data in Doughnut, but not being able to hear anything when making or recieving calls makes it all worthless.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Rom30:
I reiterate, I'm running the ION build from the first page with all of the updated base files from the Vogue-Android project and the only thing that doesn't work is bluetooth. To ensure that you will not have the call issues (unable to hear/speak and/or unable to hang up) make 1 outgoing voice call as soon as Android is loaded. I usually dial, wait for the recieving party to answer, tell her I love her, then hang up. This has the added bonus of accumulating brownie points with my wife. ;P
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] idumych:
Well, I'll try that
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] idumych:
Well, I tried using the latest base files with the rootfs from Saturday and the Donut squashfs from this thread, and although data works I still have call issues. *sigh* I'll try ION again.

What radio are you using anyway, ROM30?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dyetheskin:
internal memory set for this is around 200+MB,if we're all booting off SD cards,anyway to increase this so say we can dedicate 1GB of space off the card for the internal?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
from what I understand there is a way to do it in the user config files, but I have not tried. Here is the lenux way from androidonhtc.com
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dyetheskin:
so it's edited in the user.conf files? i'm new still to android but learned a lot so far,im just tryin to figure why there's so many user.conf files when only 1 is needed
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dyetheskin:
i see that some builds have apps already in place,i know they're in ref to apk files,just tryin to understand how i can add them since there are out of market apps around that are quite useful
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dyetheskin:
did notice there's no exchange syncing in donut,other builds allowed syncing off gmail account or the google exchange server
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
Each user config file is needed for each build. If you only use one type of build you only need one config file.

using adb or OI File Manager, go into home the select \system\app they will be in there. Some of the apk files there are not useable as a standalone install, so grab and try. (for example gmail.apk does not install on a phone without gmail already installed)

Correct, you need to install a program that offers exchange to get it on Donut or Ion without gmail.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dyetheskin:
how about editing so internal memory can be anything besides 230mb?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Johnster988:
Alright so I'm running Ion right now and I would like to say that all the major things are working (besides the camera) So i am very impressed. The resolution was terrible at first but I fixed that in the txt file.

Anyways my question is this and I'm pretty sure its a noobish question but I didn't know how to search for the answer. How do i make it so when my phone is turned off and back on it loads Android and not the other ROM i have on it because its really annoying to have to load android throuh Haret every time.

Thanks, John

I have not tired the others but GPS works with ION for me
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Areinu:
I used ION build and google maps was showing my location well. Unless it used some trick with tracing me by network I use GPS worked.

I have some questions:

1) Is it possible to pull down notification bar when keyboard is out? Is there maybe some keyboard shortcut for that? I couldn't pull out it with my finger, but even in landscape mode it worked when I hid keyboard

2) Is it possible to remap keyboard buttons to fit with kayser's?

3) Is it possible to play video on any of current builds? All I got with ION was first frame of the movie and sound.

4) Can I somehow limit orientations in which the screen can go to just landscape and normal up-down? It sometimes goes into upiside down landscape, which while not being that bad I would preffer not happening if possible.

Anyway, I'm really impressed with how well it runs and how far the project went.

Ah, and I admit I read only first 5 and last 2 pages on this thread, so if something is answered just write "read the rest you idiot" or something and I will be happy ;)

And I don't know if this was said already, but if you have non-english WM your storage card might have different name. It will say initrd.gz until you change the path i default.txt

are you using just the ion package from the 1st post or are you using the latest basefiles with it? i love how ion is fast but i like donuts look better,donut seems to lack the calibration under input settings. i prefer to user donut with working gps over wifi,hero seems too sluggish. if i can get donuts performance with working gps i'd be set for awhile

Hi, I've been lurking on these forums for some time, I've flashed my tilt 20 times, tried everything I thought looked good. So far I'm lucky I didn't brick it. I was actually scared to flash it, but when my phone was getting stuck at SPL I ended up realizing how easy it all was.

Anyhow now to android.

I have everything setup, using hyperdragon IV mega 6.5. I have used three other roms, and I've continually Used preferred radios. I'm using 1.7x. radio right now.

The error I'm getting is this

Failed to mount /data
/bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off

Now from my simple linux knowledge, I figure haret starts the jobs, and it is missing tty, and/or tty isn't starting.

anybody know whats going on, or anything I can do to get it to actually boot android
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] doej:
I also see the error 'cant access tty' when I boot, but it seems to be nothing serious which makes it stop working...

I guess your problem comes from the data file - be sure to have enough free space on your SD card, the data.img will be created when you first boot and gets 256MB large. So 300+ free space should do it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nap286:
everytime i load it the linux load screen says failed to mount sd card.. and freezes
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
Make sure you are using the latest basefile; and the user config files are both in a CONF folder on the SDcard and on the root of the SDcard. Don't know why this matter, but it did for me. Also make sure your resolution is 320 X 480.

I think your issue is the Failed to mount /data becasue I also get the can't access tty and it still loads. Make sure you moved the old data file from Ion and that you have at least 300MB of free space when you run HaRET. I also get this from time to time; Just go back into windows mobile, delete the new data.img file that was just created and try again. That usually works.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aqtrans:
Has anyone had any luck with running the ION build with updated basefiles, specifically the rootfs w/ partition support? I can get it running, but it's much slower than using the included files.

EDIT: Fixed the slowness. I just formatted my SD card completely and setup the partitions from scratch.

For future reference (and because this took a lot of research for me to get working :P), right now I'm using the initrd.gz, /conf/ and /media/ from basefiles-20091116.zip, a previous version ofzImage because of the 'upside-down screen bug', an updated rootfs.img, and the ION system.sqsh from the first post.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:

That's easy to fake, place a shortcut to HaRET in your windows/start up/ folder and rename default.txt to startup.txt; that will load HaRETas soon as windows bootsa and then immeditly go into Android.

Tried this one, and works awesome.

The only little big problem is with Wifi/Bluetooth.

Wifi: Can't get it working.

Is starts, it connects to my network, gets a valid ip adress, but nothing that needs some type of connection works. Browser, Gmail, even Calendar D:!!!

Bluetooth: Not working at all.

I was hoping to connect my Motorola HT820 in Android, but... nope.

Is there any solution at least for Wifi?

I'm using the lastest files.

Btw, I use an HTC Kaiser.

--EDIT--

Wifi working by itself, I didn't configure anything.

Just turn off then turn on and it's working. Why? Dunno.

Anyway, is there any app in the Market to take screenshots?

Cause the only method I know is a little bit messy, and I can't find any app which does this.
