So I moved from my own 2.42 build to this one, using the same data file, and now the apps that were in my system.ext2 that don't exist in this build are unable to be installed or 'uninstalled'.

EDIT: Got part of this solved, using this, but still can't install Google Maps. I switched from the Maps.apk being in the system image to the No Maps version in the OP and it says "Incompatible update" whenever I try to install from the Market =/

nice video, very informative
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
no map

Everything works get calls, data, etc. but i cannot use maps it says it has stopped unexpectedly with a force close message. Does anyone else have this problem? Not a huge deal but it would be nice if it worked for me. Running on nand right now but it didn't work in haret either. does on my wife's phone however so i know it does work. Any help would be appreciated.

thanks in advanced.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
did you let it build a new data.img, or use an old one? did you clear the google map cache?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
i used the old one and no i didnt clear cache, could you direct me?

Edit: found where to clear cache but there was nothing to clear

Just gave the build a try. No working GPS...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:
What? He never said he had GPS working. This is from his first post:

I don't know the reason, but it's not working for anyone.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:
Plemen can you upload this somewhere else? I'm trying to download it again but the download won't finish.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Sure - where is a good location that works? BTW just finishing up a newer build which is much faster - just converting it to an actual ROM using DZO's amazing work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
Can you post the old style system image also? For those of us not flashing android yet?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aqtrans:
Plemen, if you're looking for a good free filehost, Dropbox works pretty great.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Definitely - I'll post the sqsh first.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
Good deal. Much appreciated.

Any chance of MMS working on Sprint with these?

i've been running the ion 1.5 and everything works EXCEPT MMS. i believe its probably due to sprints "picturemail" BS. Does MMS work on sprint with these new versions?

also, has the 160 character SMS issue been fixed?

thanks !
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:
Nice! Downloading now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:
Also, I think you should stay with this dialer. The last one looked sort of cartooney to me, and I didn't really like it.

Oh, and this system image is significantly larger than your previous one. Are there any notable changes to this one?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:

If you're using an old data file make sure to clear dalvik-cache.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aqtrans:

I am still getting connection failed when trying to use data. I have a clean data.img, and latest basefiles from vogue-android, but nothing I do can get data to work.

I have had this problem with every hero and donut based build. Does anyone have a solution for this?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
tried with blank data file and it works now, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. the only other thing is it says it is using system from sd card-- isn't that supposed to be copied to nand?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I believe the latest rootfs from vilord will use the system.sqsh if it exists - if you want to copy it to nand, press voldn when your phone is booting and follow the process to have it copied to nand.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
I finally got it to nand. After some reading on forum I put files on a 512MB card and reflashed it with rootfs from 12-15 and it worked.

Thank you for your input.

Like the build also.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tempe38:
Really liking this build and finally tried flashing it to nand. Pretty sure the rootfs I'm using is the same 12/15 one mentioned above, it has GPS working. Might try the Eclair build sometime but for now this one is pretty sweet!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
mind telling me what nbh you flashed? im using the 12/15 rootfs and my gps isnt working but im using the lastest nbh.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] PaceyWhitter:
It's not the rootfs, its the nbh, don't use the latest one, use the one from 1-14.

If you use the latest rootfs, it boots from the sd card first if system files are there, this is so you don't have to reflash if you want to change builds. If you want to boot from the NAND you need to delete the system, data and rootfs files from your sd card after you boot.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
using your advice now, thanks.

EDIT:mind making me a little step by step, im still not getting gps working.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tempe38:
Yeah, the nbh dated 1/14 is the one I'm using.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
any plans to update this?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:

Sneak peak on updates pls?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:

So should this work with those updated GPS lib thingamajiggers? Still using this build for it's stability and speed... can't be beat. Can't wait:)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
New version up - comments/suggestions welcome.

Donut is now pretty much a complete build - we have bluetooth, gps, nav...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
going to try out the update when. I get home, on a sidenote how would I go. about putting theme like darkstar. on it?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jnadke:
GPS won't work without a 5.0 NBH. I did supply a 5.0 zImage.

Jamezelle is working on making a new 5.0 NBH.

GPS has been in a major state of flux recently, so various kernel versions and rootfs versions won't work together. It should stay solid from now on.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
You would have to unsquash, replace files with themed files and resquash. Give me a few days and I can upload one with Darkstar theme.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Yeah - I figured I'd get this out for the Haret booters for now and the nand booters can get going when jamezelle releases the nbh... come on jamezelle :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
alright thanks for the response plemen, im computer savy not so much android savy heh but if you need me to test any builds let me know, on a sidenote, please don't mimic myn's choice of not keeping time on the notification bar :].

[Touch CDMA Android Development] preardon:
If I'm running an older version of this build is it possible to update without losing my data? Running with NAND now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
You can use your old data file from a previous build. And no special conf required.

using a "special" conf got me stuck in bootscreen loop heh.

"Adding 98300k swap..........."

When I start the boot of this build it gets this far and stalls??? Any ideas on what may fix it??? I am using a 4Gb SD with 2 X 512 ext2 partitions and the rest is a FAT32 partition.

Thanks for any help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
I booted off fine from SD since I was doing ROM upgrade, but now after that my SD won't mount.

I am planning to switch back to 2.42 to see if this is a problem with the build or rootfs/nbh combo.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:
Should this new build work on Kaiser?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
I too am getting this error message. I am running the latest basefiles.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Here is a post of mine from the herblend thread:

I should have provided more instructions in my post. I'm using vilord's rootfs with new libgps and bluetooth init. This rootfs uses a menu (voldn) to load rootfs and system.sqsh to nand memory.

Sooo please make sure you press voldn when prompted while booting - the first time it will notice you have a new rootfs and load that to nand; next boot press voldn again to load the sqsh to memory - it will prompt you to backup existing data, empty the data and/or load data.img from sdcard.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] krwilson:
So, we cannot run this from HARET? That is if I understand your post. I don't want to run from NAND if possible. Thanks for all your efforts!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
Any plans to provide androidinstall.tar file for this build?

As it as easy as just unsquashing the .sqsh file or then tarring it up for new boot management system?:confused:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] celticchrys:
initrd?

Where do I get an initrd for this build? I don't see one linked from the first post, and haret says it needs it.

*EDIT * Duh. nevermind. I see things have been updated to norootfs build today. Everyone disregard my dumb question.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
norootfs boot tarball added to first post.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
plemen, I am running the norootfs through sdcard and everything is working smoothly so far. One question though, how does the lock screen work? I see the four icons at the bottom (Lock, Battery, etc) but nothing happens when I click on them. Is it suppose to do anything? Previously when I had tried your build, I could slide it to unlock but now nothing seems to happen when I click/drag.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] celticchrys:
all but widgets

EDIT: I've deleted my initial comment that widgets weren't getting data, because after about half an hour, they just all started working. I love it when something fixes itself.

That just leaves: pressing the green "send" key doesn't bring up the dialer.

I'm very pleased to have working Bluetooth! Thanks for all the hard work you and others have put in. My headset pairs and works on a call with no problems!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Unfortunately it's not a functional lock screen - been meaning to add a good working one but it's been busy (good busy) on this forum lately with all the dev.

celticchrys - can you try rebooting and see if the issue persists?

Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
Its no biggie to have a working lock screen (for now..lol) but I'm happy that I am able to pair my bluetooth headset. I tested using the headset to call my voicemail, and the automated voice was crackling. I could barely understand what it was saying. Will have to try talking to someone and see if its still the same issue in voice quality.

Also one other thing, if I want to flash this to phone's memory, do I select NAND option for both the system and data img files?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
I believe you can flash nand, but keep your system.img and data.img wherever you want. probably fastest on nand, then SD card ext2 partition, then SD card in that order.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
That sounds right. I'm running both system and data on nand and its working well - mind you, I'm running Heroblend but not much difference between the two.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] celticchrys:
thanks

Thanks, Plemen! Rebooting fixed the send button problem. The widgets had just started working on their own after about half an hour.

Everything seems to be working quite well now! Thank you indeed!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] detour522:
Anyone having issues with hardware buttons? I can't seem to return to the home screen by holding the camera button.

EDIT: Nevermind... rebooting fixed the "home" button. i am now getting the lock screen as well. btw, is the screen supposed to be just static or can i interact with it?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
I have tried so many times to flash the NBH file but I keep on getting kernel panic errors and also the Vol UP btn doesn't work very well for some reason. When I hold the Vol UP btn when running through haret, it works the first time every time.

Will give it a try again later. Which 320 NBH file would you recommend I flash?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I'm using the 240x320 nbh from vilord's nomorootfs thread:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Failed to Allocate the Storage

I'm sorry to post because I barely understand all that is going on here. I've searched for an answer but can't seem to find it.

I've been using Android on my vogue for a while but still don't totally understand it all. I've avoided posting until now because I didn't want to bother. :(

I recently flashed the ROM to replace WinMO and was running fine. I tried copying (VolumeUp during boot, to copy AndroidInstall.tar) the new 252 NAND version (hopefully I am saying all this correctly).

When I boot now, it says Failed. Failed to Allocate the storage.

I can go back to the previous version and it works fine but not with the new 252 version.

Thanks for any help.

PS.

Can others USB Mount from within Android to Windows or only from the Recovery Mode during bootup (which I can as well) Android ADB is installed according to Device Manager.

Also. My headset mic doesn't work. I can hear people but no one can hear me. This is also the case with bluetooth headset. I can hear music and phone but no one can hear me.

Thanks..
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
mounting as USB storage from within android does not work. can't answer the rest of your questions . . .

Thank you both for your replies. I guess I will have to risk a ticket in Toronto speaking without a headset. Hopefully any cop that pulls me over will be a closet Android Fan. ;)

[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Doh! sorry guys... :o

Productively, I wonder if having the high speed serial port working will help the audtio quality, or if there's a specific type of headset that has trouble... what kind do you guys use? I have a motorola h350 and can hear my voicemail gal with no problems. Perhaps we can get a poll going over in the bt support thread.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
And your sound quality is good? bad? Completely unusable?

I'm guessing good given the make. :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
I'm using the Motorola S9. Sounds quality is good, battery is also good... for about 20 minutes. :(

Unfortunately, I can hear my voice mail but no one can hear through my mic. Same with the corded one. Also have a Motorola older version, (the Princess Leah version, forget the model number) same problems.

Thanks...

[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
sorry about getting off topic. I understand there are some problems still with headsets and the mics now.

I appreciate all the unpaid work getting android to work at all. I dread having to use WinMo.

On topic: (I think) Does anyone have any idea why 252_androidinstall.tar causes a Failed to allocate memory error and won't boot? Any one else get that error?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
it seems to be headset dependent, my samsung wep410 works perfectly with the heroblend donut (same as this, just a different theme). i'm booting with norootfs from nand, I have no idea if boot method makes a difference.

was able to install the heroblend norootfs without difficulty.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Are you using the norootfs boot? Has any build worked with the boot method you are trying? There are some phones that don't work with nand boot at all due to some unknown factor (slightly different hardware, etc).
[Touch CDMA Android Development] celticchrys:
MrKite: My bluetooth is working perfectly so far *knock on wood*, and I am using this earpiece(Motorola H300):

http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Bluetooth-Headset-2d-H300/dp/B000VMTDOG
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Yes. I installed the AndroidInstall.zip ROM update that had the original (at least one version earlier than 252_androidinstall.tar). I copied the AndroidInstall.tar to my phone (CDMA Vogue) and installed the ROMupdate. It worked fine. So that's the NAND version, correct? WinMO is no longer on my phone when I reset. Yippee by the way.

Am using it currently = Firmware 1.5, Build CRB43. Kernel 2.6.25-00926-gd4987f5-dirtymartin@it0044296

However, when I copied the new 252_androidinstall.tar, it unzipped (untarred?) the new files and then starting booting linux but said "Failed. Failed to Allocate Memory" when booting.

thanks...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Hmm - something is wrong - here is what I see:

Firmware Version: 1.6

Kernel Version: 2.6.25-00939-ge9350bb root@vmclient

So if you have the nomorootfs 240x320 nbh installed from vilord, then you unzip eclair242_androidinstall.zip - you should now have a file called androidinstall.tar - copy this to your sdcard\andboot folder. When you boot your phone, hold volup and in the boot menu choose Install System and you should be off to the races. You may need to wipe out data if you are coming from another build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Ok. A little confused or I did something wrong. When I VolUp during boot, I get a "Recovery Mode" text screen and then I get a new drive (in Windows), which I assume is the sdcard. I do not get a boot menu with "Install System". However, when I copy androidInstall.tar (the 252 one), to this drive, ie. the root of the sdcard, it will un-tar when I reset my phone, but the tiny little linux text then says "failed to allocate memory"

Also, I don't see an 'andboot' folder, just an 'IME' folder, a 'lights' file, and a 'dmesg' file. Is there any other way to wipe out data other than deleting these few files? Obviously this isn't the Android system.

thanks and sorry for the ignorance.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
you are not getting the steps right. all caps are what you are missing, particularly you are trying to flash a rootfs .nbh with a norootfs androidinstall.tar.

1. CREATE a folder in the root of your SD card named "andboot"

2. place androidinstall.tar in that folder

3. flash the latest NOROOTFS NBH found at dzo's site called voguimg-XXXxYYY-02-02-10.nbh (replace XXXxYYY with the resolution you want)

4. flash said nbh

5. hold up after flash, make sure nand defaults are checked in upper menu, and run "install system/whatever". clear data when it asks, to make sure you are starting fresh.

good luck
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Thank you very much for the detailed instructions. I will try that.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
actually, don't get the .nbh from dzo's site, there is a problem with them. get it from sourcefourge.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Thank you for your help. That is pretty neat. I got it working.

SUPER-NEWBIES: For anyone "newbier" than me, you must Camera-Power-Reset to get into bootloader mode to flash ROM. Initially used the 320x480.nbh but text and buttons were so tiny I reflashed to 240x320.nbh
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
if you want to use 320x480 you can; you have to change lcd.density to 160 in the build.prop file in /system to get correct text and icon sizes though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Great Thanks.

Major Problem (for me at least): Market Apps are missing again? I currently can see only very few apps even after running MarketEnabler (which helped a little). I know that with previous versions it was a resolution issue? I think? Thanks....

Also, sorry, dumb Windows Guy here. How do I change the file build.prop? I found through Astro but it but it's read-only. Superuser permissions apps just hangs there? Do I have to un-tar in windows, change it, retar, then reinstall?

<<EDIT: Unplugging cord a few times seems to get it to work>> Getting Music onto SD Card? I tried the menu to go into recovery mode. That used to work with previous ROMs. Is there a different way to connect to computer now?

PS. Also now bluetooth doesn't work again. :( It pairs and says connected but can't hear anything. But apparently that is known problem.

Do like the added home screens though. Nice.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] :
Thanks so much to everyone that PMed me and helped me fix this. I have my market back and Andy Bryant's "Shuffle" so I can work again. The FAQs at TATNAI's signature were invaluable. I wish I had found them sooner. Thanks to the entire Vogue-Android community. What a great community untainted by the usual snobbery of this kind of thing usually. Great! :)
