My transcend card dosent work....

thx

Ps: sorry about the lousy english...:p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tuxhero:
You are luck gixxer669 your memory card is working but u have a logical partation.

Get a partition management program and check that the card is a primary partition and not a logical partition! if it is, reformat or convert it to an primary!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] NeoS:
Tux, why is Android truncating my program files folder?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dairyface:
Problems Ive noticed so far, which im sure you know, but i'll check:

Audio isn't quite right, sounds crackled.

Camera doesn't work

Power button doesn't work to turn screen off.

Speed is fantastic though, phone calls worked, text works. Wow. Its not THAT far off being usable day to day!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tuxhero:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vdude_1:
there's no such thing as a root folder, it just means place the file straight onto the memory card in no folder. So it'd be C:\ or D:\, or whichever corresponds to your memory card. That's the root :)

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] diamondX04HT:
I got 3g settings right in 0.1v...but it used to freeze whenever it got connected...so I assume I was doing all the steps correctly

But in 0.2v after doing same steps (changing startup.txt and creating new APN) data connection is not working...whenever I open browser or youtube 3g sign appears and then disappears...m I missing something :confused:

Very interesting work, that is my first time on Androïd and i can say that after few minutes of destabilization, now i like the concept !

Thanks a lot to devs ;)

I noticed an issue with the v0.2 : my device is not able to unlock my sim card, even if my pin is correct :/ Is it normal or not ?? I have to take out the sim card to bypass this difficulty and use android...

Waiting impatiently for further improvements :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rdgut:

Great work so far.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gtm55:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Clem-le-long:
Ok, thank you mate, i look for this :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ferlinek:
I found solution for SIM PIN problem.

My SIM card didn't allow to disable PIN code.

After start Android go to Settings -> Security & location -> Set up SIM card lock -> Lock SIM card [ ] -> Insert PIN code

Then go back to Settings -> Wireless controls -> Mobile networks -> Network operators -> wait until shows all available network operators -> check Your operator, or "Select automatically" -> have fun with working Android :)

After this operation my Android doesn't ask for pin.

(sorry for my English :) )

This is a awesome update. Having to reset device to get out of the Android is a pain. really excited to see a fully working and stable droid in the future. the HD will come alive when windows is not the core OS.

I assume in the future when android is functional and stable the aim to to remove WINMO and flash directly with android?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] quale:
It would be great!!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tuxhero:
Replace WinMo sure.

Flashing directly not sure.

Whether in the further support without use Windows Mobile ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
TUX you're great!!!

When you'll implemented Wi-Fi and camera I will use android more than WinMo!!!! :)

And when you'll implement Htc Sense and keyboard and htc widgets and a good internet browser I will leave WinMo 4ever!!

Thanks Tux!!

Made a big mistake by changing the default keyboard to the htc one(very small on screen), so is there any way to change back to the default android one?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
will it be a "huge" thing to port htc sense for android to this? actually i was considering to sell my hd before and go hero, right now i am happy i dident :D i think now we have the best of two worlds thx to tux and the others who helped him, i think v 0.2 is great, all things work pretty much, the basic things, mail, apps, the appstore, sms, mms, calls, automatic e-mail etc etc. only thing i would still desire is htc sense, since i know nothing about android,i figure since you pulled this of tux it should in theory be possible to get sense working to?

Android Home and Spotify issues

Needless to say that devs have done a major breakthrough in this project. Well done!

I dont think this has been asked but how do you actually go to Android home screen? On other phones you click a home button and you are there but on blackstone home button brings up a context menu.

BTW Has anyone got Spotify working? Mine loops in for logging or just crashes.

'
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
Ok i understand, i am ok with that priority :D , i guess another more simple way where if htc released an android device with sense with same resolution?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jut07:

do you know if there is any chance to build a real rom to replace windows mobile and not just run it throug haret?

things important for some users (like me) would either be wifi or pc sync for getting internet connection :)

Problem with SMS

Hi! Great work Tux! Only one thing, i can´t send sms!!!

Do you have a solution?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bopp:
I dont get the GPRS working.

I have Vodafone NL and editted the startup.txt and added an APN in Android. Just like I should. (already rebootted and reinstalled).

I do see the 3g logo flash on for les then 1 sec once in a while but i do not have internet. Should I first disable gprs in windows? Or doesnt that matter?

Hope someone can help :) Mayb someone knows where to find the LOG in android so i can check it out myself?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] FabianNL:

I have to force close this message several times before i can start using android. I even get this message when trying to download a app from the market and sending texts.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] crazygizzmo:
This is really good work dude!!!

After testing the whole weekend in addtion to the other problems stated in the thread I noticed that charging the battery doesn´t work.

Data connections work fine after setting the correct APN :)

Thanks again
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
You need to go to Settings\Wireless Controls\Mobile Networks\Access Point Names - press Home button and select New APN. Find the APN settings for your provider here, enter them and save.

The Wallpapers do not fit to screen. For now you need to choose a wallpaper from the pictures section and you then can crop the picture and when you save it it will fill the screen.

Battery charging works fine for me, which is a good thing considering how quickly it chews the battery power ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bigmew22:
Hey Tux, any suggestions on how to fix that error message im getting?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeroen1801:
APN provider settings

I'm having difficulties with setting-up the dataconnection manually and I think it's because of the APN settings.

Any chance that someone is also working with the same provider????

You may need to turn the pin security off..

If you go to setting > etc. then you overwrite / do the same thing as editing your startup.txt, I think.

So don't have to do both, but going to settings > apn doens't work for most people I believe.

But sorry, i can't help you...

Anyone with Vodafone NL got the internet going?

2. Startup Android (SMS working so i do have connection with vodafone)

3. Add APN with live.vodafone.com and vodafone/vodafone (changed nothing else except name of the APN connection).

Sometimes a flickering 3g/gprs icon (for less then a sec.) but no connection! Do i miss something or something wrong?
