Looking at commit 59ded64f8ed38d740e080b74adc087b81d5755c4 from RIL and if you have CDMA and are in north america taking a recent rootfs (see first page) may help fixing the problem

Guys who have been using this. How do you find it? Is it much faster better then the windows o/s?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] andre.mud:
It's not faster and not better. It's more fun :p.

Even though not all things are working yet, i'm using this as my primary os just because it is fun to work with. The low battery etc. is somewhat annoying but i get over it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mizambo:
Many thanks!! Now all works fine, GPRS, WIFI, BT. Very good.

2.1 Espresso

i've tried Android 2.1 Espresso and i've verified that wifi works and GPRS/3G works in my DIAM300 Movistar Spain unlike Xandroid :-(

App crash and system is slow but this is a good news for all people having problems with GPRS.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
To try this out I suggest getting a large SD card something over 2gb and a brand name at that.

Then since you seem like the noob type here is an easy installer for you

can someone tell me how to disable the circular led on diamond 100 when android turn off the display light?? :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
This answer may vary depending on the current condition of the phone and device type. Some like the gradual steps, others want a fully working, fully functional product. While the phone bit does "work", comparing it to WinMo, in my opinion, is still not exactly fair as it isn't "fully functional"... Yet! :eek: There is tremendous potential in this project, to include those who are working on the port! All I can say is, try it for yourself. Again this is by NO means a fully functional port, yet!

Much respect go out to those who are continuing to work on it and those who are helping to get the port "fully functional"!

:cool:

In-call volume soooo low

Does anyone know of a fix for the dreaded in-call low volume issue?

I have been here and there and all over the place trying to find a hack/solution but so far to no avail.

I found a so called sound hack which "might" work but then the problem is that i need to get Root on my device and that i havent figured out how to do with HaRET and the ported version.

The guides for getting root are either an old method which has been patched by google and the other involves doing some flashing of a native android phone.

Anyways, i dont even know if this "magic sound hack" will work at all.

It is relly roasting my ballz cause i see that a lot of people are reporting this issue and in here i only finds questions about the problem but no answers :)

I am using XAndroid on my topaz with great pleasure and the only thing that is somewhat a showstopper is the low in-call volume.

I really would love to get normal sound levels while in call, that would really make my day :)

...oh yeah, its still a battery drain but if someone keeps the 3G disconnected while the device is in standby it is actually possible to keep it powered for 12 hours on a single recharge.

To sum it all up:

Does anyone know of an in-call volume hack that can be used on the ported version of XAndroid?

....

Or, does anyone know how to obtain root on the ported XAndroid?

...i will give the sound hack a hit then :)

Bye bye slow and oldschool WiMo crap, Android for the win! :)

Guys i want to assist in adding a Bulgarian locale. What can I do to help making this happen?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] funkys:
I think its already rooted. But if you want to modify system.sqsh, you should make it system.ext2. you can use this script.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] JesusFreak316:
In my experience that script hasn't worked for this build; only the donut build. Has it worked for you?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] artlan:
I just used it and it seems to have worked (mostly) the only issue I had is 1st boot no hw buttons worked, 2nd boot the base HW ones worked, but no cap. touch was working (phone couldn't differentiate between home and call button, or back and hang-up)

That said however, I did try the "Louder Volume Hack" v3 app with no success. with it active on my Raph800 the call screen actually would hang. I did, somehow, manage to get it call out to my voicemail once but the volume was unchanged. We'll just have to sit tight for now. (am hoping the BT volume is louder than the earpiece volume, but won't know till my device puts out audio through the headset :) )
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] JesusFreak316:
Yeah, I just tried it again and it worked perfectly. :p Last time I hadn't updated my rootfs and zImage so I don't think root access was working. I have full functionality; all my buttons work with full rw access to system. I = happy. Maybe it's because my fuze is a little more supported than the raph800 as I don't think any of the devs have a raph800.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] artlan:
It may have been me, not the script. After I restored it all, my keys still had the same behavior for a bit. Did a little cleaning and playing in WM with them then back into Android and they worked again :) Awesome that it worked for you right off!

No Battery still Don't Stop

So the weirdest thing happened to me while I was using android...I was charging my phone and decided to take the battery out to boot back up into WinMo to reach a saved note and i forgot to take the charger out and just took the battery out and nothing happened to android the phone kept running like normal. the touch screen worked and all. Could this lead to some clue as to where the battery drainage is??

Another thing is when i connect to a wifi and then i turn wifi off I am unable to connect to the same wifi it just says "obtaining ip adress and then just says unsuccessful"
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Razzee:
thats normal behavior, winmo does the same
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] HopelesRomantc91:
Yeah, it's about the hardware. The connections are set up such that it will get power from the battery or from the plug. That way, you can change your battery without having to turn off your device. Just about everything with a removable battery is that way, these days.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Razzee:
yes, even my diy guitar pedal has that circuit
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bheremans:
I had this once with android but now when I connect my diamond 100 to the charger in windows or android and then remove the battery it reboots...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] cepalermo:
Wow, I just learned something new! I can't believe I didn't realize that. I use two batteries and switch them out a lot. Can't believe I actually rebooted everytime when I didn't have to. LOL thanks!

GPRS / 3G

I have a DIAM300 and I've tested Espresso. First of all many users (me too) have problems with data connection: Movistar Spain, Vodafone NL, etc...

The first time I tried Espresso (05/03/2010) I realized that data connection worked. Perfect! Dreams can true!.

Now, with the release 08/03/2010 I have the same problem as Xandroid, no data connection. Well, downloaded new zimage, new rootfs from http://xdandroid.southcape.org/rootfs/ and tried again. Nothing, it doesn't work. Downloaded rootfswithcalibration.img 06/03/2010 from Espresso repository and works again!!

With those tests I can confirm that at least in my DIAM300 the data connection problem is the rootfs file.

Just to chuck in my observations I'm using a DIAM100 on the 01/03 update with the latest rootfs and zimage.

I've done the ccdisk edit and it now runs like a dream, 3G works perfectly, Wifi works.

My only problem is the battery life but that could be down to my 18 month old battery.

Thanks to everyone making this possible it is honestly stunning what you've achieved.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] owziee:
Holy crap, the latest zImage / modules is a miracle! It makes my Diamond run like a dream! Even the battery indicator is working much better than before.

Wifi on/off works perfect without any reboot.

My device doesn't run very hot anymore :) :) :)

Speed is incredible.

Sound is great, and no ringtones problems anymore!!!

No problem with waking up from sleep, it wakes up immediately when pressing the power button!

I could go on forever, things are starting to look really good!

http://zimages.googlecode.com/svn/a...sm-android/zImage-modules-20100309_201223.tar

I haven't tried bluetooth yet though but I'm just happy that it works so much better than before. I'm using it with the march 01 build and with the latest rootfs (released today) and the latest initrd...

Amazing job guys! I can't thank you enough :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] zen15:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] stevesuk:
I'm sure (and hope) that further optimisation is possible, but I think Android is doing a lot of work in the background that Windows Mobile doesn't. On my phone, its told me:

- When someone has replied to me using Twitter

- Facebook updates

- Syncing Gmail

- Syncing my contacts

- Syncing with my Exchange Server

- Told me when a Marketplace app I installed had an update available

So it must be checking all these things in the background without us realising

I'm wondering if Windows Mobile has an easier life in this respect. Add to this that battery life of the standard Diamond battery was never that great anyway :)

I just bought the official HTC extended battery (BP E270) for the Diamond from eBay. They're pretty good value these days. OK, it makes the phone a little bigger and heavier, but its not as bad as I thought it might be.

I've not had it long enough to properly test the difference in battery life with XANDROID, but if the figures are to be believed, I reckon it should extend battery life to more than 24 hours with moderate use

corporate calendar?

Ok guyz, I've searched online a bunch trying to make sure i'm not crazy, but I can't seem to find the "corporate calendar" app in this build or any other i've used... I've setup an exchange account and my mail and contacts sync fine. However, my calendar does not sync and under "accounts" on my exchange account there is no "sync calendar" option. Am i missing something or has this functionality been excluded for some reason? (i've checked with folks i kno that use android and the "corporate calendar" app comes with their phones and is not available in the marketplace). Any help would be appreciated:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] stevesuk:
Is this maybe an app written by HTC that isn't a standard part of Android?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] infinitybiff:
It comes installed on all android phones from what I've found (Motorola, htc , etc) seems to come with android. I could be wrong though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] stevesuk:
Found this "The Corporate Calendar app on the Motorola Droid was developed by Motorola and thus is not available on the HTC Nexus One. You can search the market for "Exchange" to discover some apps that allow you to access your Exchange Calendar. Touchdown is a popular choice", here:

http://www.google.co.uk/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=4533d50c74bf5671&hl=en

So its not part of standard Android, but is an app written by Motorola for the Motorola Droid. I have the same problem... I don't use Google Calendar, all my appointments are on my Exchange Server calendar.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Try without deleting first and if you encounter problems with booting or if for some reason it doesn't work, then delete it. Most will tell you that you "should" but I have not encountered any issues changing from rootfs to rootfs. Hope this helps or if you figured it out.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Nakebod:
I think I'm experiencing the same, although it seems to be more data related then service related. Got it a few times that I lost my data, and 1 time that I lost all service.

So far switching to airplane mode and back to normal works.

I'm not sure if it is related, but I think it happened each time if my phone was in (deep) sleep, and I switched cell's, for example driving from my home to my work.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] pspTP:
This is awesome guys! Thanks. I was just fooling around with this today. Copied files on the SD card and android booted ok. Initially I wasnt getting my data services working. But after updating zImage and rootfs files to the latest they are working now.

Only annoyance so far is that the screen is always dimmed. If I try to adjust brightness it brightens up for a sec till the stylus is touching the screen, then dims immediately. It only stays bright the first time I start Haret from WinMo. Then once I press the call end button to turn display off, everytime after that it is dimmed.

I have a Sprint Touch Pro btw... TIA!
