3D hardware accel.

Hi all. my first post here.

I've been playing aroung with Android 1.6 for a couple of days on my Diamond. and manged to get it working pretty good. Even SMS, 3G/HSDPA, WIFI and all the stuff.

Even got a Android marked login in, and downloaded NeoCore. a 3D benchmark program for android.

If im right, it uses the 3D hardware accelrator of the Diamond, as the graphics is bilinaery filtered, and runs pretty smooth at 640x480 woth 18fps.

Really Cool stuff.

Hope they solve the Battery drain isuue though, so i can use this for my personal phone OS. instead of just playing around :-)

Great work to all involved.

save battery when not using phone.

Hi.

I have found the following way, to increase the battery life.

Put Android in Flightmode.

Long press End call, press flight mode.

When the phone is done going to flight mode.

Put the phone on standby/ilde/sleep.

long press End call, when the menu pops up, short press End Call button.

OR. press Menu/home key, and when menu pops up, press End Call button.

To bring it out of standby/ilde/sleep. Dobbel press Menu/Home.

This way the phone don't heat up, and the battery will last alot longer.

holyyyyyyyyyyy crapp....

its 11:30 am....and 7 hours ago i installed android....and i fell asleep... just woke up ...and ITS Burningggggg Hottttt..like it was unbearable.... also my phone was in sleep mode....damn Android wud've fried my phone if i left it any longer... or thats how it seems..

but here is my report on it

-----------------------------------

Build: htc-msm-android

kernel:b75d257bedcc157d44e73422de76191477a3752b Wi-Fi:059301be2cf3de77c71a77f8d7434f435ddeb064

Date: Sun Nov 29 21:25:34 2009 +0100

i downloaded this zImage^^^

and it already had warning for Diam100 that the clock is broken? So i'm not sure if that caused my phone to be burning hot. <-- and when is say burning hot...i wudn't drink my tea this hott!

WiFi didn't work for me....i could turn it on..and i searched for my network..and even entered WEP password... and after all that..it would say disconnect.

Camera didn't work. i Saw jibberish when i turned on camera

Buttons/Keys ..well i didn't bother reading any of the help file..so it was a bit confusing.

didn't try bluetooth...and i know gps is not supposed to work..but i didn't try it either.

After waking up this morning i soft-reset my device...went back to WinMo and didn't lose my Volume key or Camera...

My diamond version is Diam110
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TecHunter:
Thanks for the report.

Yeah battery drain is a big issue they are working on it. The burning Diamond is from wifi/GPRS/GSM issue imo... had the same problem the first night too, my phone was fully charged the evening then the morning after it was very hot and almost no battery.

I recommend to format with MTTY if you have any problem on windows after using android :)

What is the data.img file in your screenshot. It's a huge file, from where do i download it ? It's not there in any of links / zip file.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] thurstoon:
Soon you will have a data.img too

data.img is generated on first startup. Just run haret.exe and data.img will be present in your rootfolder to, the next time you look. For more info, checkout the ever groving thread in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=402002

Android 2.0..

Hi Guys

Came across a working version of Android 2.0 over at Connect-untouchables posted by Edvard.

Been successfully using it for the past 5 hours and cant say I have any complaints apart from the inability to use the mentioned features. At first there was a lag in running programs, however things seemed to improve with time.

Other than that, the only major hiccup was battery drain and getting hot whilst charging, however USB charging works out of the box unlike tested 1.6 OS's and obviously the improved UI.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rockr4Christ:
Ok, maybe this is a stupid question, but why cant we just get a flashable rom of this open source OS? IF we can...any idea how long it will be? (cant wait for WM to get off my phone...) lol

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
All in good time, need to get a stable product first b4 compiling packages. Things are progressing with Android development at present so you never know when something will be available.

Is there a chance?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Uhfuecu:
Hi, i'm just a newbe in this kinda stuff, i wanna know if there is any chances to replace WM with Andriod when this project will reaches its goal (eventually cooking a Rom with Android instead of WM)

Sorry for beta-English
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TecHunter:
will be posting the last build of Android (2.0 Eclair) soon. Just waiting for my download to finish and eat something ^^
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lixxus:
hi have u upload the last release yet ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TecHunter:
im about to, but he's just released a new one. I'm uploading right now. ETA: 23:15 GMT+1

edit: UP
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
I have tested the latest zimage file and modules posted at htc-msm-android and have no joy with the mic, though there is intermitted wifi issues, best bet is to use the original files from connect utb (only problem is no GPS, camera or bluetooth) and test the newer zImage and modules occasionally.

Coincidentally, I am using diam200 device and have the problem inverted hardware key functions, which wasnt resolved eventhough I added 'board-htcraphael-navi.inversion=1' to the startup file.

fixed: sorted finally :)

changing the lcd density to 200 in startup txt has also improved the dialpad layout.

Now just need better battery performance and the few bits mentioned above and I wont mind using android from time to time.

One other thing, cant seem to disable the sound when tapping the android keyboard, never had this problem on Android 1.6??

fixed: setting option unnoticed b4
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] leonatan25:
I am sorry, perhaps you didn't see? This is about 2.01, not 1.6. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
I think the thread starter recently renamed the thread causing some confusion as the first 9 pages were devoted to the 1.6 OS and only the last page on the 2.0 OS, anyway I see the funny side to your comment :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mughalgxt:
Am trying eclair on my diam100 for the first time, made folder eclair_fs, hade same file structure shown in first post, followed all steps, but when running haret.......am stuck at 'task rpcrouter:15 blocked for more than 120 secs', the unit tries to re-initiate than again same message? What went wrong?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
Did you move all the files to the internal storage folder ie the "root folder" you must have all the files there and not a sub folder
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mughalgxt:
silly me!!!!!!Lovely work guys.......Diamond REInCARnated!!!!How can we add ringtones as its silent by default?sOrry for re-editing.........now how to access the phone from pc?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
hey, we all make mistakes :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] nuhbiwan:
Look at his posting date, then look at thread title esp. the part in brackets, then turn on brain, then post...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
To add ringtones you need to add files to the media folder [media\audio\ringtones] folder as .ogg

reboot back in winmo either by hitting the soft reset key or holding down the hang up key and powering off.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mughalgxt:
....ain't working for me bro...media\audio\ringtones...still 'SILENT', so is the case with wallpapers and notification rings. Android can't access the media folder? the dial pad and music page are truncated not properly adjusted for our screens yet!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
you should be able to update the ringtones etc via the settings page Settings\Sounds and Dsiplay -> just ensure that you havent the sound turned off, first option.

Regarding the resolution of the dialpad etc, that could be related to the startup txt in your root folder, mine looks as follows and all is well, pay close attention to the lcd density entry!

set ramsize 0x08000000

set mtype 1805

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "msmts_calib=115.105.863.911 msmvkeyb_toggle=off mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480 lcd.density=210 board-htcraphael-navi.inversion=1"

boot
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mughalgxt:
bro i made sure that the phone is not silent, downloaded new ogg ringtone pack from android forum (just to make sure the ringtones actually are working) tested each played well with media player, but andoid does not load the ringtones and wallpapers, yes can browse all picture folders via andoid except media folder just doesn't read it, incl ringtones, notification and data in media folder?

Lcd density was set 240 .......now 210 thanks to you!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
Seems like something is corrupt somewhere, you could try using the downloading the OS pack and trying again, or just deleting the data img file and rebooting.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mughalgxt:

I have a problem with Wifi and GPRS...

WIFI - when i try searching for wifi..it shows my connection, and when i try connecting it disconnects my wifi router connection and my router reboots and alli get is Wifi disconnected on my phone.

GPRS - i am not sure if i have the right settings, i am from India, Banaglore and this is what i have :

Name - Vodafone mobile connect

APN - www

Proxy - Blank

Port - Blank

Username - Blank

Password - Blank

MMS Proxy - Blank

MMS Port - Blank

MCC - 404

MNC - 86

Auth Type - None

APN Type - Internet

Please let me know if the settings are right anad what do i need to do for WIFI?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TheHTChero:
I have downloaded the filed and installed it sucsessfully on my Diamond.

But when i have to enter the pincode it just says thet my pincode ain`t right :confused:

The phone isn`t locked to any operator, neither is the sim card.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TecHunter:
oh sorry i forgot to mention that, I thought this was already solved since 1.6

In 1.6 the pincode was always wrong so we had to disable it in WinMo before going to Android.

For others who want to configure their APN, look at your operators web site they should have configs for Android phones like HTC Magic or whatever.

Don't forget to NOT enable the airplane mode. If you still have problem try activating your 3G connection in WinMo then go into Android mode.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
Hi

Cant remember if it was stated on the front page, however you must remove/disable your PIN code in winmo, as its not recognised when booted on android
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jfran:
Wifi only works if its WPA/WPA2 encryption, anything else wont work, as for your router rebooting no ideas there.

Regarding the GPRS issue you may want to check other threads out, however before booting into android ensure you have a gprs conection in WinMo. When in Android, check settings to see if anything is there:- settings\wireless and networks\mobile networks\Access points names, if there is nothing there, via the menu option manually add the details you mentioned and see if it works...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TecHunter:
if your router reboots, you have a problem with it... not the phone. Or you found a vulnerability that allow a denial of service from remote access XD I doubt it, try updating your router firmware. Does it do the same thing from WinMo? look at your router's log
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cescof:
Sorry man for stupid question... but when you say to format sd obiouvsly you mean also have a total free sd with just file to install android or it's possibile have in it other files??

regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TecHunter:
its not a stupid question, just format once in fat32 then you can put your files (android + whatever other files you need).

just in case, dont mess up with files with names like modules-03453894.tar.gz lol.for more safety, put your files in folders, avoid root.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cescof:
Really thanks, tomorrow i'll try your package.

Contacts et al

I remembered someone asking about getting their outlook contacts onto their device, and noticed that in Contacts there is the option to import/export, so all you need to do is export contacts from Outlook and save the file to your root folder then open contacts in Android and import the csv file.

I came across the ability to program what function the end key can perform the options were along the lines -

1. close program

2. home page

3. close program and home page

4. do nothing

however, I cant seem to find the option and I am not sure if it was an application I was using or a setting function??? Anyone came across this?

Update The setting is in the Spare Parts App :)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ssoleri:
Hello. It worked fine for me !!!!

But first I had to format the internal storage (in Windows Mobile, Settings, System, Clear Storage, Format internal storage only).

Then I follow all the instructions at the beginning of the post and everything is OK.

WiFi working with no problems (no needed to add MAC on STARTUP.txt).

Vodafone Live WAP (GPRS, Spain) working perfect just only filling these:

Name: Vodafone live!

APN: airtel.wap

User name: wap@wap

Password: wap125

But the problem is that I cant turn off the connection (it has all the time the green light on) so I create

a "false" APN so that when I choose this false APN the real one turns off.

For Music files, I use Meridian and it recognizes all my MP3s and M4As on my Music (SD root) folder and subfolders.

The problem is that it doesn´t recognizes files with names that have accents or extrange characters like "ñ", "Ç", etc.

Contacts: I imported them from an only vCard file (well, I am a MAC user, so I had my Address Book synchronized with my Windows Mobile HTC and my Gmail account; so I only needed to export my contacts as an vCard file from the MAC Address Book. Then I put that file in the HTC SD card and in imported that file from Android).

Questions/Problems:

1. I don't know how to use my HTC headphones. They don´t work. When I plug in the

mini USB, still sounds only the internal speaker.

2. It is possible to use the FM player (not WI-FI radio player)?

3. USB conection to PC/MAC not working

Congratulations, and thank you for the post.

I really like Android, it works very smoothly (comparing with the ..... WM),

very easy and clear to use. I see a great future to this system in our Diamonds.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] phhusson:
IMHO using a mirror of a mirror is a really bad idea. Not even mentioning that this site points to an outdated version.

Pretty useless as this is often broken. If zImage and moduels are packaged with the android build with babijoee's build it's because they are not often usabel.

You'd better edit startup.txt to change the zImage used, so that you will be able to use again an older one if this one breaks something.

Wrong. It's modules-2.6.27-xxxxx-aaaaaaa.tar.gz

Useless most of the time.

As said earlier, there should be no such problems. If there are some, please report !

Totally useless too.

That's why I use open wifi networks we used.

No seriously, if it doesn't work on last release, i'm sure at more than 95% that's it's not a problem with android, but with your configuration.

Totally useless. To prevent the system from crashing randomly at startup, I always run haret when wimo is in airplane mode, and it works just well.

There is a widget which does that, toggle data, available from the market.

Use donut with toggle headset2 widget, or add snd.force_headset=1 to the cmdline in startup.

Not yet.

It does work, just try better.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] salim1001:
At this stage, Android is still under BETA..so you will not have everything that you will for. Windows is a Stable platform so therfore it runs great..i guess we will have to stick around much longer than expected to run android properly on our phones....

As for windows that is your default OS so it will come whenever you reset your phone.

I confirm that there is a problem on the Diamond with a rapid discharge of batteries. Often hangs then automatically-reset. Very pleased to work with Android, a pity that not every day.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tickmaster:
Nope, When You run Haret, You only run new OS core and WM is still loaded.

But there is no other way to switch to WM than restarting Your phone.

So You are still running 2 OS at same time. Thats why battery comsuption is so big. And there is no way how to run Android as Your primary OS.

At this stage it is not replacement of Your OS but only a demo version.
