Yes I'am sure some one out there will be able to leak the sources, just a matter of time, as for always hacking is free but it's playing with our patience...

I just get my S200 today, I used to cook rom for Omnia, will try to do the same for this piece of tech ;-)

Rafyvitto, are your rom multilanguage? or english/russian only?

Also for the android port, maybe someone will try the stupid thing to directly flash a liquid dump in his S200, just to see, sometimes hacking is fun and a kind of pocker party.

In the very basis of logic, if the hardware is the same, if we inject in the nand ( sorry coming from console hacking world) the data of the liquid, the bootprocess must be identical beetween the two devices, I know acer is a brand that always try to reduce costs, so in my mind they should have kept many things identical beetween the two phone hardware,

even the touchscreen controler might be the same, there must be a controllr outthere that can handle both kind of touchscreen (capacitive & resistive ).

What could really help us in the porting :

- HQ shots of the two phones motherboard, to view in detail what are the differences, this could help to point out where to begin.

- if the hardware is nearly identical, interchanging the nands of the two phone

(must have good soldering competence ),

This could lead to interesting findings.

Try to compile the kernel, there's the source at codeaurora.org. I've tried, but it seems that a newer toolchain (than 2009q3 by codesourcery) is required... As I pass all my exams, I'll try it better :)

However, I personally don't see any features that put android over winmo... If we had a capacitive ts, than it would be viable.
[neoTouch S200 General] sssache:
Well the kernel source of Acer Liquid has been released. Hope someone will manage to port android to Acer neotouch, because windows mobile really suck.

[neoTouch S200 General] erto90:
kernel is a little incomplete so far.. also for liquid is hard to have a custom rom,so we need all support of best developers
[neoTouch S200 General] marcofama:
dear all

anyone has news on the Android porting to our Acer neoTouch 200? :cool:

thanks!

I'm thinking of buying a Liquid. I get sic of WinMo. From the moment WM7 announced there is no 6.5 development. We are stuck.

Changing to Android will be great.

Tried to cross-compile those kernel (with arm-2010q1-202-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu)

ARM System type: Qualcomm MSM

MSM SoC type: QSD 8x50

Also, checked all in MSM Board selection, but it can't even make bzImage, usually shows lots of errors in arch/arm/mach-msm/board-qsd8x50 file. Treat warning as errors options disabled.

Hi,

I have a little experience with haret, haretconsole, make kernel...

I tried this for my old phone (samsung omnia)

Where can I find this:

?
[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:
ok, I found this:

and this:

haret-pre-0.5.3-20100620

same date so I assume it is correct.

With the console I found these informations:

HaRET(1)# show ramaddr
0x18800000
HaRET(2)# show ramsize
0x0e000000
HaRET(3)# show mtype
0x00000000
HaRET(4)# print %s machname
Acer_S200
HaRET(5)# print %d machmtype
2566

so I think I need to edit the default.txt/startup.txt like this:

set mtype 2566
set ramaddr 0x18800000
set ramsize 0x0e000000

but what kernel/initrd can I use?

tnx in advance

p.s. sorry but my english is not very good
[neoTouch S200 General] :
Stefano i think you must use http://www.netripper.com/leo/initrd-netripper-busybox.cpio.gz

but i'm not sure
[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:
This page contains a kernel that starts partially:

but there is no link to kernel
[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:

[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:

and the touch screen work?
[neoTouch S200 General] tsamolotoff:
Oh, I've completely forgotten about TS, i'm posting the link to the wiki now (it didn't work at the time i managed to do something sensible with ts, but now i can do it)

BUT - i don't know how to set up touch screen in android, so please do it by yourself. Accoring to kernel printks, ts is correctly detected, and it responds to touches (i tried to calibrate it by hardcoding values into msm-touch.c, but maybe they're my device-specific, so try and find the correct ones yourself)
[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:
Oh very good!

I tried your last image with ubuntu and it works very well! :cool:
[neoTouch S200 General] tsamolotoff:
Can you upload ubuntu image or is it from leo topic?
[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:
it is from leo topic ;)
[neoTouch S200 General] tsamolotoff:
It didn't work for me... did you use my Image or did you compiled it yourself?

Well, that was tricky to finally read the readme.txt and find out that everything should be in \ubuntu dir :)
[neoTouch S200 General] Stefano_1986_:
I used your image.

lol :p
[neoTouch S200 General] eddielauk:

Hi, I'm a noob, I tried to boot android with haret and the initrd,gz suggested, but kernel panics, saying that "VFS is unable to mount root on unknown device (0,0)"... Some advice? (I used stefano's files and default.txt...).

And more, where can I found some documents about smartphones boot process? Architecture or similar? Just to understand what I am doing...

Thank you very much for your work...
[neoTouch S200 General] Axel85:
Even if you could boot android is only to see the boot animation and the desktop then nothing work and after 10 seconds the os crash.Ocman said that he will try to work for android but he has no time and since now there are no news,so the project in this phone will never come true.If you want android you better get an android phone or an htc hd2 like i want to do...Bye
[neoTouch S200 General] gepdiana:
Thanks for the info, but to be honest I would like to install linux, only as an exercise to understand how a smartphone works.. the boot process.. the hardware in it... In fact I am more interested in some documents to understand s200 or smartphone in general architecture.. Thanks.
[neoTouch S200 General] epdm2be:
1) Yeah, It's "free" to telco's NOT, it's not free for us.

2) It's Open Source NOT free.

3) It has a weird complicated license which means that handset manufacturers aren't required to "donate" their (kernel- & driver-)code back to google (or the "source tree"). It's not like GNU (Linux).

Android sucks. It's as free as Windows Mobile.

Look why don't all these "xda-developers" nicely ask the source code of WM6? Microsoft are throwing it away so...

Then we can nicely ask the WM6.x-driver code from the respective handset-maker.

Then we have the code that we need. We could build our own Windows Mobile (or whatever you wanna call it) phone OS. And WM6 already has multitasking, copy-&-paste, access to GPS, bluetooth, wifi etc.

Secondly. Symbian is also "Open Source". Why hasn't anyone thought of running that on our devices?

Or does it really HAVE to be Android? Why? because it has a cool name???

Hi.

I've got myself a Tattoo about a week ago and are mostly happy with the phone. However, the last two days I've been comming in late for my job. The reason for this is the Tattoos power saving. When the alarm shuld go off the phone is just silent and dormant. When I unlock the screen the alarm goes off happily.

This seems like the same problem as I had with my HTC Diamond, where SMS'es was not notifyed until the user woke the phone up. The problem there coud be fixed by a regedit. But regedit is, of course, out of the question on a Android :D

Do anyone have a this same problem as I have, and does anyone know about a fix. I've checked HTC.com and there is no official patch for this.

Best Regards

Hi.

I sure do love command-line tools! I added them to the Mortscript Source Compendium's list.

And to facilitate my testing them to see if magically they will work with wm5 smartphones, I added a Command-Line tester to The Mortifier. So we can browse to the exe and enter our command line parameters. Keeps the old exe and parameters in memory so you can re-test them easily.

Thanks for these.

Hello,

I'm trying to use JMLContacts.exe to have birthdays on my WAD2 Skin.

I've installed JMLToday and everything worked fine and registry was filled by next 5 birthdays information.

Now I'm trying to update information outside of Titanium/JMLToday and to do it I'm using a mortscript.

Inside script I wrote the following line:

RunWait("\Storage Card\Program Files\UtilsExe\JML\JMLContacts.exe", "-max:3")

Unfortunately it seems not working, at least registry values are not updated. I double checked path and it appears absolutely correct.

More I tried to simply launching JMLContacts.exe directly from TCMD, and I expected it worked with all default values, but of course it didn't... Is my supposition a wrong one?

Meanwhile, thanks a lot to let available for us those little but great tools :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JMHL:
@dagosjt :

you must use also -days (0 per default), -birthdays (and /or -anniversaries) parameters

example :

Ok ? thanks for feedback.

PS : i think i 'll change the default parameters values in a next version...

Hi, JMHL

Nevermind for my request, I just found an old tool named "wm5newmenu" and it works great and have coordinate settings and works on WM 6.5.x.

If you're interested in this software, you can visit this link below:

http://www.saman-cz.com/ppc/index.html

However, after googling for many days, I found out that there is no a quickmenu tool that can have a popup-menu with icon on the left with option to have custom background images. I found:

- kvvquickmenu - but it has no skinning support for background image or round edges, except font settings, color settings and transparency, and translucent

- FSMenu - ??? , it's in Russian

P.S. which DEV tools you used in developing JMLMenu, C++/C#/etc. ?
