No Donut joy :(

Right. After trying to get Donut running, it's still a no go. Not sure why, but I still get a constant loop booting the system. Tried resetting and making sure that a compatible data.img is there. Can't get logcat output, my terminal just says it's waiting and never actually gives any output. Cupcake based build work just fine (although xROM 1.5 is a no go too, but I think it had Donut additions, right?), would really love to have something running at native resolution in Donut.
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
My android build loops at the startup animation but I am able to get a running log - I'll take a look tomorrow and hopefully see what is causing this...
[Touch CDMA General] mfpreach:
Its probably a resolution issue, that happened with me with Hero too.
[Touch CDMA General] Rhys'Droid:
What resolution do you have set in your default.txt? You running a Donut build, or some Hero variant?

edit: Ah, sorry, too early in the morning, I see that you are running Donut now. So the resolution shouldn't be the problem. You have the 2.2 recovery files, right? 2.1 didn't support Donut.
[Touch CDMA General] OleJuice:
Freakin awesome!!!!

Wow mssmision.......great work here. Much faster.:)
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
Got Donut working!

I have my latest donut build working with this config - I`ll send the info to mssmison on what needs to be done to get it going for everybody.
[Touch CDMA General] cmus:
Which is your latest Donut build and where can it be downloaded? Look forward to trying Donut with mssmison's new approach. My attempts so far have been unsuccessful.
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
Its in the thread titled "heroblend." I tried with the old system but had no luck, just downloaded the new one. I'll try it later, hopefully it works out. I like the look of the build.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
I have the info, I'm busy today but I've asked enatefox to help me, once I have new files I'll post them for everyone. Again sorry I don't use Donut so I couldn't trace the issue. As well this is why I like to BETA test :)

For anyone who wants to try and fix it themselves in the interm for themselves here's the info. please DO NOT release updated files for download. I will do that for everyone later as I don't want there to be confusion.

"Hi mssmisson - monitoring via ddms while booting donut with your config I noticed permissions errors with system/etc/dbus.conf. I chmod`ed this to 777 and now the donut build boots and works."
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
My build is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=578627

but the current build won't work yet without mssmison making a mod on his side. Let me try to make the mod on my end and I'll post it in a bit.
[Touch CDMA General] sushichef:
thanks mssmison!, looking forward to the new files!
[Touch CDMA General] Rhys'Droid:
Are people having issues booting Donut just on the Vogue, or on the Kaiser as well? I do not have a Vogue, so I cannot help troubleshoot for you guys (sorry..) but I do have a Kaiser and Donut boots up with no issues for me using mssmison's 2.2 files. If there is anything you would like me to look at, let me know.
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
Okay - I've modified my Donut build to work around the issue until mssmison has time update his files. It boots and works well with this new method - you can get it here:

[Touch CDMA General] SuperJMN:
Yesh!! It's working even in my Polaris ;) Come and try it. It takes some minutes to start for the first time, but it is worth waiting.
[Touch CDMA General] Macmee:
I got a black screen, on installation and then when I try to boot android I get unable to mount /data. Running donut. It didn't back up my data file for me, good thing I did it myself.

I get as far as it actually showing the android loading screen, then it just freezes, and after a few seconds the screen goes black.
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
Your trying to run a donut build right? They currently have issues with this method. The only donut build you can use is the one on Plemen's thread. That should boot up fine. Otherwise try an Ion or cupcake build. Or Hero.
[Touch CDMA General] Macmee:
Ah, that's too bad. With the plemen build everything force closes for me, and it takes 10 minutes to load, with a new data.img :(
[Touch CDMA General] KERKEDAGAIN:
mann..that kinda sux for you. his donut's ROCKIN'! you sure you tried the latest w/ the new config?
[Touch CDMA General] MrDJ:
Not sure what I am doing wrong. Get the prompt to install and it then gets stuck on:

"enabling ADB function"

Any help would be appreciated!

[Touch CDMA General] mrkite38:
Awesome!

Finally tried this and it's awesome! I'm a Linux n00b but I have some experience with GPartEd so I opted to use it instead of Paragon to partition the card.

Also, I wanted to note that I was able to format the card while it was in my phone. If you use a ROM that has the USB mode selector widget (e.g., NFSFAN) then you can set the mode to mass storage, leave USB connected, boot into GPartEd, and perform the necessary partitioning/formatting. I didn't try but you can probably connect the phone after the Livecd has booted, select USB, and rescan devices in GPartEd.

I'm running the jesterblur build from a while back and the difference is remarkable! Thanks mssmison!
[Touch CDMA General] Macmee:
Well I used all the files from this thread and them his system. When I open windows like maybe the settings panel it takes a long time to load, and it's taking me ages to boot, I'm not sure why.
[Touch CDMA General] KERKEDAGAIN:
after you reboot that can be the case..have you used a task killer? i keep the Taskiller widget on my home and tap it as soon as i can, that usually gets things moving pretty quickly
[Touch CDMA General] Macmee:
I have rebooted many many times. It keeps rebooting itself when I do some things like turn it on, or sometimes when I click messaging app or check mail. I really hope there's a fix for this, as the rom looks absolutely sexy:D
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
Is it really so hard to keep on topic?

Rom talk can be talked about in the Rom thread can't it? Or is that too challenging?
[Touch CDMA General] plemen:
LOL - I hear you - macmee bring over the question the Heroblend thread; folks have it running well over there and can probably help you.
[Touch CDMA General] Macmee:
Cheers, and sorry mssmison, I don't mean any disrespect:)
[Touch CDMA General] myn:
I keep getting multiple:

cp: cannot create directory /system/customize
cp: cannot create directory /system/..
...
..

than It than proceeds to create the data.img than

init: cannot find '/system/bin/void', disable 'void'
init: cannot find '/system/bin/debuggerd', disable 'debuggerd'
...
..

on load after I hit the buttons twice.

It then freezes at "enabling adb function"

I've tried this with both xRom and senseHero v1.3.3. Same results.

For reference I used Acronis Disk Director to create the ext2 partition. 8gb class 6 microSD card.
[Touch CDMA General] MrDJ:
I am in the same boat as you. I am guessing I must not be partitioning it correctly. I have ubundu and am using the disk utility. If anyone could point me the correct steps of how I should partition this I would appreciate it. From what I can tell I have the 2 partitions.
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
make sure the fat partition is to the left of the ext2 partition if using GPartEd or partition manager
[Touch CDMA General] ali3nfr3ak:
i to have the same problem as the other 2 who posted, i also use ubuntu and used the inbuilt disk utility programm to partition card, 4 gig sdhc class 6

I assume u mean that the fat partition is to be created first? and then the linux ext2 partition, oh and im just letting it boot the normal way not the recovery option
[Touch CDMA General] moekind:
ms when are u releasing the fix for donut builds?
[Touch CDMA General] ali3nfr3ak:
try using the recovery method ...read the boot up screens about 5 secs into bootup screen ...it asks if you if you wanna do this
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
no man you have to do the recovery that is the update method:)
[Touch CDMA General] ali3nfr3ak:
hey there thanks, i actually figured that out in the end
[Touch CDMA General] myn:
That's exactly how I have it. Fat32 on left, ext2 on right
[Touch CDMA General] MrDJ:
Figured it out. Used the gpart utility and worked like a charm!

Is there a wiki we can reference of builds that work with this ext2 process?
[Touch CDMA General] myn:
x2. As mentioned, I was having issues with Acronis, so I used the gparted live cd. Seems to now work. Thanks.
[Touch CDMA General] KERKEDAGAIN:
so if i mount the system as rw i, theoretically, could add blurnimations to an already installed system right?

what file/folder would i be looking for so as to make that modification?
[Touch CDMA General] myn:
Anyone able to get this working with xRom?
[Touch CDMA General] sshark:
Hey guys, I have been running this with 200mb swap file and runs quite smooth! I love it.

By the way, how's everyone's experience with Market after moving to this method. For me, it shows it's downloading but never does.
[Touch CDMA General] duchoang81:
Hi mssmison, i tried your method running on my kasier. It could get into android and use phone function on my kasier. But It could not log in any wifi network (although could scan and see wifi network). i use donut build (with normal method, it could log in wifi network). Could you advise me to get wifi on kaiser working properly.

P/s: your method running so fast on my kaiser, hihi.
[Touch CDMA General] SuperJMN:
Did you see the Wireless Options screen to see if it's trying to obtaing an IP address? I this problem. It never gets an IP address. I had to enter the configuration manually :(
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
I don't have or support a kaiser phone. Enatefox made the changes for wifi, ask him.
[Touch CDMA General] enatefox:
This should fix it, has a readme attached.
[Touch CDMA General] drewden123:
Sorry if i'm asking a dumb question here, but are hero builds supported in this?
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
they work if thats what you mean
[Touch CDMA General] drewden123:
Thank you. I wasn't sure because I saw in the changelog that it was updated to support donut.
[Touch CDMA General] polyrhythmic:
I know my Kaiser is unsupported but thanks so much mssmison! Builds FLY on my Kaiser, Sense is finally usable! The last piece to the puzzle will be the upcoming RIL. Amazing what you guys are doing with these devices.
[Touch CDMA General] aven_soulgazer:
I had been using system-tmo-ota-drc92.sqsh prior to starting using your new system here. I just can't seem to get it to work. I got the system posted earlier in this thread to work, but my old data file wouldn't work with it that I had all set up the way I wanted. Hoping the next update fixes that, or we get 2.0 soon. Either way, it's running amazingly fast with the system image in this thread. Not sure if I have compcache on or off, and have no swap partition. Is it running faster with a swap partition running as well or no? Thanks
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
if you use zen's last donut build it work with those old files. The new files however will work 100%
[Touch CDMA General] silex:
any benefit for going with an ext3 instead of ext2 partition? Is any body using a linux-swap?
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
ext3 can actually be slower than ext2 because of some overhead stuff so stick with 2. I really recommend to try and stay away from swap when possible, the donut/rogers/ion builds don't need it, only the builds that are designed for higher amounts of ram.
[Touch CDMA General] silex:
I've got Hero 1.3.3. running pretty awesome on ext2. Thanks for the feedback!
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
yeah for a hero build you'll probably want to use swap, I recommend a file that is deleted and recreated on every boot to try and avoid corrupting your sdcard.
[Touch CDMA General] mssmison:
the partition method has been integrated with the new rootfs, moving forward please see the thread here;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=584707
[Touch CDMA General] polyrhythmic:
I am happily using linux-swap partition with senseHero 1.3.3, I keep switching between that and compcache, can't decide what I like better. Although it's not clear that swap partition is supported in newest rootfs, I'll have to look

Anyone else getting an input error when linking contacts to Facebook? It happens every time, even after hard reset. The dialog specifically says "Input error, Connection failed."

Yes.... Had it on the Sprint version and also now on the Tilt2 and haven't found an answer to fix it.
[Imagio General] cslawren:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkmaster071:
I bought the Qtek 9100 and i would like to upgrade it. I read a few tutorials, but i still dont understand everything, this will be my first phone ROM upgrade. Please excuse me if these questions are totaly noob.

Help much appreciated.

1. I dont know if i need to CID unlock my phone, but if i do which is better, more commonly used (or safer) : SoftSPL or HardSPL?

2. I would like to upgrade to IPhone killer - Windows Mobile 6.5.1 - Build 23075, but i dont know if this ROM is supported by the qtek 9100 G4. Will it run good or not?

3. Is it possible to make a backup of the currently installed ROM, if in any unfortunate scenario i ruin my phone and then restore it to what it was before?

4. I am running windows 7 and i saw some posts saying that it cant be used for flashing and that you need virtual xp. What do i need to do in virtualxp to make it work then?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] nandobang:
I would tell you to search or use the wiki, but I'll assume you already have, lol.

1. Yes, you need to CID-unlock the phone before flashing anything. My first and only flash was using SoftSPL, and had no problems.

2. Check the ROM topic, does it say "G4 safe" or "OS only"? Don't try do flash ROMs that aren't cooked for your device. A WM6.5 can run a little slow, dunno.

3. Yes, there is a way, but if you brick your phone, all you'll have is a paper weight and a backed-up ROM, lol. Check here: backing up ROM

4. Can you install XP itself? That would be better I guess.

Cheers
[G1 General] heroskyy:
im trying to decide between the two

which one is considered the most used device for developing/hacking etc?
[G1 General] Driften:
The MyTouch has a bigger rom and is more likely to be able to support Android 2.0. The G1 has a hardware keyboard....
[G1 General] Minker17:
And those are the only things you should worry about.
[G1 General] phatmanxxl:
if you don't mind typing on the screen get the mytouch, its a lot thinner, has a bigger trackball that lights up and the stock battery lasts a lot longer. It pretty much can do anything the g1 does.
[G1 General] _Trev_:
I've gone back and fourth between my MyTouch and my G1. To me it comes down to, do I want a hardware keyboard that week or a thinner phone with better battery life?

I'm currently back on the G1, considering buying the Innocell 1400mAh battery. But I end up on the MyTouch more often than the G1.

G1:

+++Hardware Keyboard

++More accessory options (becoming less relevant)

+Camera button for fast camera access

Mytouch:

+++Better Battery

++Slimmer

++More comfortable to hold

++More internal storage

+Glowing trackball for notifications

+Easy access "Search" button
[G1 General] Wii60:
If you are willing to wait 2 weeks and have the money, get a Behold 2 on Nov 18 for 249.99.

Also, I'm surprised you haven't considered the Cliq. It's technically better than the G1.
[G1 General] brian_v3ntura:
i would say buy a used g1 so you wouldnt use up an upgrade.

IMO g1 is better to get becuz of the hardware keyboard. and i suggested buying used becuz tmobile is coming out with better phones within the next few months. 2.0 eclair will not be a problem for the g1 as long as the g1 is rooted and cyanogen gets the source code.

i would suggest waiting for the mytouch LE (limited edition) its the fender edition btw. it uses the 32a board = 288mb ram, 3.5mm jack , and a 16gig mem card comes with it. virtually almost the same as the hero,just without sense ui stock and 5 mp cam. i'm pretty sure it can be rooted using the existing methods. plans for release date is jan 2010

the motorola sholes and sholes tablet info has been leaked for tmobile. i assume u know what verizon's motorola droid is. no date announced.

cliq is eh..nothing special IMO.. better specs than the g1,but its not worth buying. the keyboard is crap..and the phone feels cheap.

not much is known about the behold 2 as far as the UI goes...but touchwiz for winmo and other devices has just been inpratical
[G1 General] AdrianK:
I would go for a MyTouch, just because I don't use the hardware keyboard much, and would be more than willing to sacrifice it for a thinner (and sexier) device :P
[G1 General] heroskyy:
Well, i had a mytouch, but the typing on the touch screen was getting a little..tedious and frustrating.

i traded it for a black g1 and some cash, and i have to say, im loving the G1. All i need now is a class 6 sd card and a better battery

i already rooted and cyanogen'd, great device, and i personally love the keyboard
[G1 General] jndd333:
The g1 is still the best Android device in my mind, also it's now become the cheape$t :)
[G1 Apps and Games] weasel5i2:
Hello,

I was interested in getting Hamachi to work on my newly-acquired G1. After applying Cyanogen's Mod and rooting the thing, installing Debian (yay!) and setting up all the nifty scripts to make it semi-permanent, I focused on getting Hamachi to work.

First I tried the Linux tgz but it failed ("wrong architecture, teabag!" it told me.) ..so I looked around some more, and came across a build for the Nokia N770 (Maemo something-or-other) and decided to give it a try, and holy **** if it didn't work (after some tweaking.)

NOTE: YMMV.

Make sure your phone is r00ted. Can't do it without the r00ty-juice. Also, a Debian distro is required. See here for how: http://www.saurik.com/id/10

**EDIT** I just reflashed my G1, so I had the opportunity to try again and figure out the exact steps! Here they are, as they worked for me:

01) Download the N770 Hamachi tarball: http://files.hamachi.cc/linux/nokia-770/hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx-n770.tar.gz .

02) Untar/ungzip it, it will extract to hamachi-n770-0.9.9.9-20.

03) cd into there, and run sh ./install.

04) mkdir /dev/net to create the node directory in /dev.

05) mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200 to create the tunnel device.

06) apt-get install sudo if you don't already have it.

07) apt-get install libcrypto++7 if you don't already have it.

08) ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7

09) sudo tuncfg to get the tunnel driver started.

10) hamachi-init to set up the initial configuration and RSA keys.

11) hamachi start to start up Hamachi.

12) hamachi login to login to the Hamachi network.

13) hamachi set-nick nickname if desired.

14) hamachi join network password if desired.

Success!! Got my G1 online and logged into my Hamachi network! I did apply this Linux fix (to make it stay online within my Hamachi2 network -- this is Hamachi 0.9.9):

echo KeepAlive 10 >/root/.hamachi/config

Maybe overkill, as it's gonna send a ping every 10 seconds over the air, which I'm sure will eat up my battery after a while.

[G1 Apps and Games] the_fish:
nice! been waiting for something like this for quite some time ;D having some problems though... it won't compile... when i run make install, just keeps on giving me a "Nothing to do for target "install"" Tried removing tuncfg folder and hamachi executable too (which doesn't work btw, says libcrypto is missing), still didn't work... any ideas?
[G1 Apps and Games] weasel5i2:
Oh, thanks for reminding me! I also did an apt-get install libcrypto++7 when it gave a linker error.

As far as Make goes, it doesn't really compile (it is precompiled) as much as just copy the binaries to the proper places in the path.. Try doing the install of libcrypto++7 and see if it works for you.

[G1 Apps and Games] the_fish:
alright... so ive tried installing libcypto 0.9.8 and renamed it to 09.9.7.... however it still says i need to run hamachi-init which doesn"t work!

Edit: alright, got it... i had to do sh install ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] Zerodime:
Thanks, seems to work!

tip: the libcrypto.so.0.9.8 wich you have to rename to libcrypto.so.0.9.7 is located in /usr/lib
[G1 Apps and Games] TheUriel:
Can any of you two (Fish & Zero) whom have gotten this to work confirm what you did, and if "Debian" is needed ?
[G1 Apps and Games] the_fish:
it does work, it only works on debian at the moment, since the binaries are not designed for android. however, the network connection should work with android too, since debian and android share their connections...

all you need to do is follow the instructions, but also run

apt-get install libcrypto0.9.8 and

mv /usr/lib/libcrypto0.9.8.so /usr/lib/libcrypto0.9.7.so (something like that :P check ls /usr/lib)
[G1 Apps and Games] TheUriel:
Alright so im still breaking my neck to get this to work but i dont get it.

This guy says "4) Untar/ungzip the file, run 'make install' and it should install without errors/warnings, IIRC.. (I did this last night)". What is he talking about ? Do i download the zip file, extract the folder in it to the root of my SD ? because thats what i have done so far. And if yes after then what comes next ? I cant put his puzzle together. -.- So lost, and i really want this.
[G1 Apps and Games] Zerodime:
You need a working debian on your android for this to work.

and even then its helluva lot of doing magic until it so much as tells you that it's started.

My Problem for example is that when i do: "hamachi start" it tells me that it can'T access the tun device (no such device) but it's there...
[G1 Apps and Games] TheUriel:
Dont worry about it, i went back to Hero after getting Debian working.
[G1 Apps and Games] weasel5i2:
Updated PP

I reflashed my phone, so I had a chance to install Hamachi and document it again. As such, I updated the parent post with the correct instructions.

Enjoy, and please let me know if anything doesn't work and I'll happily try and help with troubleshooting.

--W5i2
[G1 Apps and Games] Zerodime:
Hmm almost eberything works except 'hamachi start' wich throws bad response from tuncfg (/dev/net/tun no such device)

Prolly a problem with my debian installation but you got an idea without reinstalling the whole thing?
[G1 Apps and Games] weasel5i2:
You need to make the tun device first:

# mkdir /dev/net

# mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200

I have since rewritten the original post to have more detailed (and proper) instructions.

^_^

-W-
[G1 Apps and Games] Zerodime:
Tried that after it was posted here in a reply (i think)

But to no avail (tried sudo tuncfg too but nothing changed)
[G1 Apps and Games] Proxin:
Can't wait to go try this. :D

Does anyone have any VNC viewers (preferably free) that they recommend for use with this? My computer is behind a NAT router so I need to use Hamachi to access it.
