wifi²fix: #1557 page 156 remember this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] DJHile:
Thanks for the wifi fix. I'm about to test now. I'd really like to get rid of this lag when opening apps... for example, I just got a txt notification and when I click it to open it I get a black screen for 15-20 seconds and then it pops up. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
What is your setup? partitions? Most apps open within 2-3 seconds for me, browser seems to take the longest (but it takes the most memory). Apps I've used recently open near-instantly. You're not using compcache or swap, are you?

bug:Youtube isn't working like it should be (not really a problem).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] DJHile:
I am running off of the SD Card. I didn't have to partition anything.. I DLd the basefiles with HaRet, added your build to the andboot folder, transferred the folder to the SD Card via USB, ran HaRet, the install went smooth, then I just now applied the wifi fix which did get my wifi working smoothly. I also turned wifi off and opened the browser just to see if cellular data is working and voila, somehow after installing the wifi fix, my cellar data is ALIVE!!

I will check through other apps also but where I'm getting a HUGE lag is when I receive a text and get the notification, I'll click the notification and goes black for 15-20 sec and then it opens up Handcent. I'm going to run through a few more apps right now and I'll check back in and let you know how it goes.

EDIT: I made some adjustments to the settings / animations / transitions and now things seem to flow more smoothly. Now there's only a 2-5 sec lag between transitions.

I've got really strange problem. I flashed my kaiser with nbh from sourceforge and put the androidinstall.tgz to andboot folder on my SDCard. Then after flash I installed an android and i put off the battery as You wrote in first post. Now its hanging on splash screen :/ Any suggestion?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] seancojr:
Sometimes this happens, especially in cases where the battery was just taken out (but also in cases when you shutdown from the menu). I usually just remove the battery and leave it out for about 3-4 minutes then try again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] seancojr:
I was just thinking that might very well be the case. In fact my phone is a 4GB and I occasionally run into hang issues at boot. It sparks my interest, would splitting the partitions down to no more of a max of 2GB help?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Polarfuchs:
Hi,

I still have the msm-i2c error. I got my father's 2GB SD card with fat32.

That card is empty, so no chunk can interfere. And there I got the error, too. I will test the zImage-eclair instead of zImage from dzo. ut I don't think the chance is high to succeed.

Edit: I did test also eclair kernel but no changes.

Now my question: I tried several possible configurations. different kernels, different sd cards, different method (fat32 or ext2), tried to launch haRet without using the touchscreen. But neither of them are really working reliably. So the conclusion is that the problem comes from my win mobile rom or radio rom, isn't it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] seancojr:
I see that you're running radio 1.59.44.02. I have radio 1.71.09.01 (which I think is recommended in OP), so you could give that a shot. As for the windows mobile rom, I've flashed polymod to NAND so I really can't help there. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] DJHile:
Did Car Home get taken off of the Dark-Themed Version? That's the version that I am currently running and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Also, do you think the wifi-tether app that is being developed (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3381933#post3381933) would work on this build? Either NAND or running thru HaRet?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Polarfuchs:
Ok maybe I'll try that tomorrow. Please allow my one little off topic question.

Are the radio roms device independent? Can I use a Kaiser radio rom on my Polaris? Or do I have to search for a specific latest Polaris radio rom?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] assangflexx:
Thanks :D

Works like a charm now
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] seancojr:
My apologies, I didn't realize you own a Polaris.

You might want to take a look at the Polaris Radio ROMs thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=379599

This particular post there might interest you as well:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4903599&postcount=289

As for compatibility, if I am correct there are only certain Kaiser radio ROMs that can work on a Polaris, and those might have required some kind of ported development, I'm not sure. I'd say check that thread and pose your questions there, or wait for another Polaris/polymod user to respond here.

@all: "cat" ouputs that the system reads my battery capacity to be 2700mAh...however, it's a 1600mAh battery. As of current it expects more capacity (obviously) and so the battery seems to drain faster even with little usage. Would this be something I could manually calibrate, or should it work out itself correctly over time from phone usage?

Anyone else having issues with GPS...

After initial install GPS locked quickly but would ocassionally get stuck ON. GPS ICON would continually blink looking for lock even if no App required it (reboot corrected issue).

Now GPS will not lock unless I get a lock in Window Mobile first. Is this something I can correct without re-installing the system?

Tell us a bit more about what you are trying to do. Are you aiming for debugging your device, using the SD-card as mass storage, tether your phone, what is your goal?

Don't know if you fixed it already but I would recommend reading up on http://www.sandladan.nu/wiki/index.php/Kaiser_Android_configuration

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jonahs:
On a side note, could anyone tell me how I can get Vanilla Android themes of different versions? I know people put alot of time into making all these great themes, but it would be nice to see the alternative to be able to switch to the look and feel that the original build came with.

What I'm looking for is either some links to the original themes of Android 1.6 or 2.x, or a guide that explains how I can do this myself. If the only way is to build my own flavor of a theme to get the original back, please provide a link to some source that has the original theme embedded, so I don't have to hand draw every resource myself.

I know this might be asking a lot, but I'm just giving you all an indication of how much work I'll be able to put into this or think is worth. Something tells me this has been done before, though.

Thank you in advance!

By the way, if you have direct links to the themes, I'd say it would be fine to post them here, but if it involves more work, please give me a PM instead so we don't clutter this thread more than necessary.

@Poly: I have installed the 2.1g build and it seems to run just fine so far. I have also hooked it up to my debugging Ubuntu-environment to see if anything odd popped up with the GPS but apart from one total freeze after starting GPS Status, I have not been able to replicate any problems thus far. I'll see if I can run a couple of longer test runs as time goes by. Excellent build, this one! Cudos!

I have a feeling this is a memory card issue, but I'm unable to install the new build from a freshly partitioned 4GB memory card (1 fat32 at about 3.13Gb, 2 ext2 partitions at about 400Mb each).

I can get to the install screen after running Haret.

I'm selecting the two SD partition options and accepting the wipe data question, but then I immediately get the following:

Formatting...

mke2fs: cannot determine if /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 is mounted

mke2fs: cannot determine if /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 is mounted

then after a little while it reads:

Installing...

then I get a screen full of text that I cannot copy down in time and it eventually reverts back to the main install screen and I can repeat the process over and over.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Edit: Annnnnnnnd, didn't realize it wasn't going to go right into the Android OS. On a hunch I restarted, ran HAret, didn't enter the install menu (by not holding down the dpad center button) ,and now its going to the nexus splash screen. I'll report back with any problems.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] usatraveler:
After this happens, do you hit "Quit" on the install screen? If so, does it continue through to boot normally? I'm pretty sure I got this every time I've installed and have seen no adverse effects. Perhaps it's normal? Not speculating about anything, just noting my observations, I have practically no knowledge beyond what's necessary to install and use.

when i charge my phone and wake up in the morning the phone goes really slow..then starts to speed up as the day goes by anyone know why??

Also can we get a new layout for the password?? its a bit unresponsive on my device and i gotta try at least 3 times to get it.

Im still waiting for a fix on the sleep. When i am in the home screen my phone sleeps really fast :-\
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
If it's like me your phone takes a while to wake up.....

Seriously, it is more responsive if you add the taskbar widget to one of the screens, and killall (red taskill icon ) before you put it on charge, one thing to note, if you want to use the alarm, you will have to leave the clock task running.

Have you tried opening settings, go to sound&display, scroll down to screen timeout, set that to about 10 mins, that seems to work fine for me.

I don't use the password, but 90% of the time, unresponsiveness is caused by running unnecessary tasks, see my first answer to help solve that.

Contact favorite not saving

The newest version, 2.1g-dark is phenomenal. Responsive and very feature packed. Thank you! :D:D I did notice though that when selecting the star in the contact section to save a favorite, the selected contact never gets saved to my favorites section.

Poly, 2.1g dark is a huge improvement over your other versions. Animations are super smooth and transitions between different screens are way faster. I also noticed that my reception has somehow improved over 2.1b. Keep up the great work, looking forward to more releases.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jeanpiere:
I've noticed the problem with the system not saving settings too. For example, if i change to Live wallpaper, the put the device to sleep, wen i turn it back on the wallpaper has reverted to previous one. Same happens when i try to change genie widget setting from auto refresh. . . its weird, cuz everything else works fast and really great!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] lggyxx:
thnx ima try these out and see how it works. I use live wallpaper..so i dont want to kill that :-D. But i will kill it when i go to charge it and restore it in the morning.

As for the timeout. it happens say if i get my password wrong..and on instance im trying it again, it goes off lol. But i took it off..and its good, i just dont like people going through my fone, especially girls lol

Also is it me or is the power button and the hang up button the same lol. Maybe we can find a way to make them do different things, because when i try to turn of the screen during a call..pressing the power button turns it off

Btw accessing my text messages takes a while for the screen to load. Any ideas on how to make it a bit faster? Man im asking for alot :(

live wallpapers on polaris

When I first tried this new polymod 2.1g I was still using the non-eclair nbh dated 2010-02-20 and every live wallpaper were working.

Right after I decided to be more clean and use the eclair nbh from same date and now they seem to work less good.

The nexus one doesn't work anymore (shows a white screen only)

I'll try to revert to non eclair nbh to see if there's a corruption in my system on if it's the nbh's fault.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] seancojr:
This is likely due to a setting you have under the Spare Parts utility. If you run that and scroll down to the very bottom you will find an option to select the action to be performed for pressing the "End" key. I not sure if there is a quick and easy (or even possible at all) to remap the function of the "Power" key. However, if you change what the "End" does when pressed it might help rid some of the annoyance.

Help me to Launch Haret in a POLA100

Hi guys,

I own a POLA100 Cruise.

I:

- Downloaded Black pack

- Downloaded Haret Install

- Renamed default.txt to original-default.txt

- Renamed defalult-polaris.txt to default.txt

- Partitioned a 2 Gb SD as: 900 Primary Fat32 + 1024 Extended (2 x 512 Ext2 Partition).

- Copied on Fat32 partition the folder "andboot" Haretinstall+Pack.tgz

... I lauch Haret....

THE FIRST TIME ... Linux booted, but when i hold the D-Pad... Cruise show @A ... and then TIMEOUT.

Now (from second time to now....) ... Haret Run... and I see wierd color and bad lines on the screen.

What I can do to launch a good android image on my Pola100 ?

Anyone can create a "Pack" with Haretinstall, the right default.txt and the black pack of this thread ?

Thanks a lot.

Well : this black edition is, how can I say... Incredible, fantastic !!!

But in my Pola, just one thing that did not exist on previous versions, is when I loose network : is several times on a day... I've a red cross on the icon of network and they need to go to the settings to find a new one...

It's really anoying because I d'on't know when I loose it and I watch on the phone almost every minute...

do you use a NAND version or SD card?

I ask, because on my polaris I can't get the SD version to start without an msm-i2c error.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] API182:
Hi All, I did put my TyTn II away for a while due to all of the WM6.5 builds starting off great but one way or another letting me down in the end... Obviously due to Android being very much in beta stages on the Kaiser I don't expect consistency yet either, but I do think that in future there will be a solid stable build for all of us and I for one am very much looking forward to this!

I have installed this to the NAND using the 'Anyone afraid of NAND flashing is a wuss. Check this out, its so easy..' tutorial and all is well, I have used 'KAISIMG-PANEL2-320.NBH' as per tutorial and I have used the 'Light' android rom.

Only one issue I am having so far is that every screen for some reason seems to have a lot of red pixels on it. I know they're not dead pixels as they change according to the image shading/gradient areas.

Anyone got any idea what this is all about?

On the animated 'X' screen all looked great, I know that's only 4 colours, but there was no random red pixel shading going on there..?

Anyway, help would be much appreciated, and keep up the great work! :)

Keyboard typing suggestions are pulling contacts. I've seen this on other builds. Anyone else notice this? Is there a fix...thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ArvinSR:
Yup I have noticed that as well and it could get me in trouble. The only way I see that the contacts could be disabled from the suggestions is to disable the suggestions option through the language and keyboard settings. I could be wrong but this works for me. Hope this helps:)

Just a note: everyones favourite donut build seems to have great wifi, I may have a look at that, perhaps theres something in there that will fix my wifi totally.

As far as the latest kaiser build is concerned, I still use the last dzo nbh for kaiser, with the 2.1g installer. wifi always starts fine, just never seems to be able to get a full connection.
