Put the stylus in the phone (to put android in portrait), and do a long press on menu button. (the one which looks like a home button).

Any idea why android can't get locale position then ? It lacks some proprietary libs ?

Ring tones and sound notifications

For the sake of whomever I cannot get sound to work.

I had some top level directories starting with a "@" in the name (old habit) and renamed them to "_" but still cannot get sound/ringtones to work. Tried the CharacterScanner prog but for strange reasons I cannot get my phone in "Storage card" mode. Now two quick questions:

Is it safe to read the card from a "regular" card reader (running Vista 64 here)?

Will files names like "~htc0012..." be considered "illegal"? That would be a pity since the album artwork files get assigned to names like that.

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
It's quite hard to find out from here but I can give you a few hints. First observe the "heartbeat" led. If it doesn't beat at all or keeps stopping then you don't benefit from the sleep mode. Assuming you have a recent kernel and XAndroid and have _not_ any pm.sleep_mode in your startup I'd suggest checking the following:

- email sync frequency: turn it off or set it to push

- gtalk: shouldn't drain that much but switching it off is avoid wakeups

- google latitude: turn it off from gmaps if it's on to avoid your phone calling "home" to send your position

- services running: settings - applications - running services (check there for anything unusual

- apps running, even some you didn't install: Advanced Task Manager is free and will help you dtermining what is running and killing the unrequired ones

The apps I've identified as misbehaving:

- amazon mp3

- fring

Once you have identified the app preventing sleep or causing wakeups you should be able to get periods of 15-20 minutes in deep sleep. If that doesn't help or if you don't find anything wrong you may want to add pm.debug_mask=55 to your startup in order to get more logging about the begins/ends of sleep attempts and the reason of wakeups.

Battery test. Final result

And the test is over!

After 20h and 10 minutes, the phone battery is dead!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
i was wondering how others had accel./g-sensor working.. but yea, since the Rhodium (TP2) side of Android is lacking, we have to come here for the up to date stuff i think its cuhz we dont really have any devs that have TP2 (RHODIUM) ?

but yea, if u can, that'll be GREAT! if it causes problems with you guy'ses phones, can u juss do some kind of seperate accelerometer/g-sensor file fix?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
No but I will look into this. I have no idea but I've noticed that maps won't tell me where I am (I had 2 glitches though). As there have been some changes in latest API (5) that may also be related. Unfortunately there is no "dev" app for localization but I've noticed that older versions of software from Markets (e.g. locale beta 0.6.x) do not manage to get a loc properly. I wrote an app to test this:

// Get a reference to the LocationManager.
m_myLocationManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

// Define a set of criteria used to select a location provider.
m_myCriteria = new Criteria();
m_myCriteria.setAccuracy(Criteria.ACCURACY_COARSE);
m_myCriteria.setAltitudeRequired(false);
m_myCriteria.setBearingRequired(false);
m_myCriteria.setSpeedRequired(false);
m_myCriteria.setCostAllowed(false);
m_myCriteria.setPowerRequirement(Criteria.POWER_LOW);

Even if I want coarse position and no other information than my position I'm not able to get a Location object back from the API. I'll do some reading and see if there are some dependencies I miss that lead the API to decide cell info is not enough. This example as my other code is based on the public API so at least we know that there is no missing prop Google stuff related. Of course for gmaps I can tell for sure there is as e.g. you will need the google API to use MapView to display any map.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] meukbox:
Hmm, that means that IP adresses are tracable to home adresses within a few meters? Never thought of that... It's ADSL, so maybe it could be traced to the last phone distribution station, but that's almost 1 Km from here...

-LED beats in the same rate when on charger or not (once every 4 seconds)

-No pm.sleep_mode in my default.txt (the one I load when I start Haret)

-e-mail sync: I use Gmail, but I don't see any setting for frequency.

-Gtalk: just closed it. Is there a way to prevent it from starting? I just unchecked " automatic sign in"

-Running services: Gtalk was running, I killed it.

-ATM: nothing running except ATM itself.

I just disabled "Background data" and "Use my location"

I'll test with these new settings and if that doesn't work Ill try pm.debug.

Tnx for helping :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] meukbox:
Something I noticed when I tried my other SD card:

it took AGES to boot. With my normal 8 Gb card, even a fresh install wouldn't take more then a few minutes. With my original SD card (the 2 Gb that came with my MDA Touch Pro) I had to reboot and retry several times, and even then it didn't want to boot.

After 45 minutes I just re-formatted it, just a quick format, and tried again, and it booted within a few minutes.

So if you can't boot, try a format of your SD card.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
You have Markinus, WigglerAway (cr2 and tmzt sometimes), they seem quite busy currently, but they do some great work. Anyway we already have drivers for g-sensor and wifi for topa/rhodium, it just needs some (little I think.) fixes for these features.

@all Dutch people using Android or somebody else who knows the answer;

Which settings do you have applied according to the time?

I've set GMT +1, but then the time is one hour ahead. When I set GMT, the time in Android is fine, but in Windows Mobile one hour behind. I asked this before here, and phhusson told me to choose "automatic network time", but I've checked that and it stays one hour ahead.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] meukbox:
T-mobile here, and the same issue. I really don't mind. Windows has the correct time ( that is: system time is clock time) and Unixes tend to use system time corrected for your time zone.

If you want to get rid of it: set your Windows clock back 1 hour :)

btw: Chamonix, tnx! I don't know which of the settings it was, but at least my phone doesn't feel hot anymore. After 1 hour my battery is still at 80 % and I'm not even sure it was 100 % an hour ago.

Seems your tips fixed it for me.

Or maybe it was only my WiFi. In the previous build I couldn't turn it off without hanging the phone, and now I can. I read somewhere WiFi is taking a lot of power too. So now I just turn it off when I don't need it :)

Okay guys i now need some info regarding people's Raph/TouchPro/Fuze

Okay now i'm requesting to know if anyone out there has 256 mb for rom size.

if you have 512 rom size then dont bother posting :)

thanks

To find out simply boot winmo, goto settings and find device information and it should tell you there. I havent used winmo in awhile so i cant remember.

Also anyone here know how to write 3d apps? specifically using gles?

Please pm me if you can
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gigaguy:
Where can I find this info?

Also, I know probably asking to much, but any chance that the video/tv out on the RAPH110 will work at some point in Android?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] babijoee:
afaik its not supported in our current kernel. 2.6.27.

Its supported in 2.6.29 i think but we aren't upgrading to a higher kernel until we get most hardware working first. ;)

In the meantime use winmo :( if you want to video-out

Will not Boot with new Zimage in BASE PACKAGE

The Base Package XDANDROID.6.01.10.7z boot and ran fine,but when I replaced the

Zimage and modules with any of newer builds the rom would not boot.I am running Energy Rom Energy

Rom Warhawk 6.5 23016 with a 8gb micro sd in RAPH FUZE.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] torn8o:
Make sure in your startup.txt the zimage is the right name

example

i have seen this

set KERNEL zImage.20100109_002437

when zimage is actual file name in root of card or

set KERNEL zImage

and zImage.20100109_002437 is file in root of card

The set kernal name needs to match the kernal file name
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] babijoee:
If it doesn't work simply use previous zImage that worked. Just because zImage is updated doesn't mean its going to work.

eg: remember mic problem.

Also report the problem over at Glemsom't autobuild comments too
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] XERO_Racer:
on that "boot andriod faster" tweak, how do i activate it and if i wanted WM to load what do i do? i dont understand the info on the original post about it
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] babijoee:
Basically its just a lite version of winmo. no apps, custom ui. Meaning very small and boot speed will be fast. Its been programmed to search and launch haret from your SD card and immediately load into Android. Just give it a shot if you're willing to give up winmo for now.

Downside is you can't use your phone now to copy+paste files to the SD. You can use adb functionality if you know how. For now if windows users want to drag files they'll have to use an adapter or simply not flash this lite rom.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] allthatinny:
yuh its a nice touch but android is still far away from actually replacing windows, after we get a fully functional port, i will do this but for now am still letting windows load, cause i do sometimes use my camera, gps, etc, i brought a phone for its functions not for bragging rights as i always tell ppl XD

oh and P.S what i did to replace my windows with it still loading was put Haret Shortcut in /windows/startup folder and when windows boot, it will load android, windows doesnt fully boot either, and if i want to use windows i just remove my Memory stick and boot up my phone, or pop in my pc using a adaptor and delete the file.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Couldn't agree with you more!

On another note, about the shortcut in the startup folder, I thought that could be done, just haven't found a release that I'm comfortable with just sticking with Android with. I might run it for several hours or till I find that the buttons actually have a mind of their own :D

Anyhow, thought I'd share my personal experience with Android and agree with another enthusiast...

Good luck and have fun!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] XERO_Racer:
Ya I don't think I'm ready for android to be my new everyday use OS but thnx babijoee for letting me in on the info, until then imma wait out and see if u guys can solve the battery life issue which im hoping it would be soon because i did everything to conserve and i have no way telling what my percentage is atm, kinda afraid to use it at school and thinking its dead after a few hours...overall this is really pulling me towards andriod and i appreciate your work...great job, ill be checking everyday for updates

P.S. theres one issue i would like to say, when i press the hardware buttons the keyboard lights up even though the slider is closed, and since the LED on the keyboard contributes to the drainage of the battery hopefully ull fix it...just something i wanna say
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] |Jason8|:
One really really odd bug/feature that I've noticed is that when in standby, the phone will randomly vibrate. Not a long vibe like "Hey, I got a text message," but a short vibe that you can barely notice, but really bugs you once you realize it's happening. It makes the same vibe when you plug in/unplug the charger... sometimes.

Either way, I was curious as to why it does this. Is it there as a debug feature? If so, what does it mean?

Other than that, it's pretty much amazing.

Another quick question, does anyone see a performance boost going from a class 2 SD card to a class 6? I'm thinking about buying an 8gb class 6 card and I'm curious about the performance boost, if any at all.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] naviru:
I haven't notice it during standby but sometimes it happens when I'm using the phone. It is like haptic feedback from a button but I'm sure I was not clicking any of buttons that return haptic feedback.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] stinebd:
This is indeed a debug feature. It's in startup.txt as pm.debug_mask=2. This makes the phone vibrate whenever coming out of deep sleep. You can take it out if you don't like it, it won't affect any other behavior.

FOR ANYBODY WHO WOULD LIKE TO TEST THE LATEST KERNEL:

The latest glemsom autobuild kernel (for which phhusson reduced the idle_sleep_mode idle timeout to a real-world value) has a performance issue due to the timeout apparently being off by an order of magnitude from the intended value. This results in idle sleep kicking in between every timer interrupt (which is what the counting up in the boot logs is showing).

If you'd like to try a temporary fix for this, please put pm.idle_sleep_min_time=20000000 in your STARTUP.TXT cmdline. This will set the minimum idle timeout to the intended 20ms. It should restore performance and allow idle sleep to kick in as well if needed (this will probably not happen while the display is on).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] andre.mud:
I have the same problem. I leave it for now in Windows. Because it takes to much time to change every time.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] allthatinny:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
Have you tried the workaround "board-htcraphael-navi.wake=0"? This setting disables the ability for dpad-wakeup and seemed to make things better for ppl carying their phone in the pocket where DPAD may be pressed randomly.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
definitely a feature: pm.debug_mask=2 lets the phone vibrate when it wakes up. You can remove it but if your phone is vibrating often (e.g. every 30s) you have a problem you should look into for getting a better battery life
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
I must diasagree on that: the states and transitions btwn idle ans sleep levels are fine. If the phone misbehaves in this regard the cause should be looked at (changing parameters cures the symptoms imho)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] |Jason8|:
Yeah, I have it sitting on my desk right now, and it's waking up and turning the display on and everything once every minute or so. Would having auto-sync on cause this? I just turned it off via the comm-manager style widget, I'll report back. It'd suck a lot if that was the case... I can't live without push GMail! :(

EDIT: Turned off sync. The screen doesn't turn on anymore, but it's still vibrating. Is there a way to find out what's causing the issues?

EDIT2: It was a homescreen clock widget that I downloaded from the Market. Guess it's time to find a new one! I got 8 hours of battery life out of my phone with the clock knocking it out of standby constantly. Perhaps it'll actually get me through the day now! :D

Question: Is there a place where donations should be sent? Or at least a list of all the devs that are contributing to this? Because it's an amazing project and I'd like to possibly shoot a couple bucks at everyone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Zeraven:
Anyone know a way to make SMS messages (send and receive) with Tmobile? I've tried it all for weeks now, still not working for me.

Also, my buttons flash all the time and my screen keeps changing from landscape to horizontal position, any thoughts on that or is this normal for now?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] |Jason8|:
On another note, is there documentation of all the cmdline haret settings that we've got going for this? Also, is CPU scaling working? Perhaps no2chem can help out with that and the battery driver since he wrote the new battery driver for WinMo. CPU scaling could save a bunch of power, too...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] stinebd:
??

Check the commit... http://gitorious.org/linux-on-qualc...mmit/f509b884400744ce3c18bb9d9247edfe2f047415

The phone is misbehaving for people _because_ of a changed parameter. Changing the cmdline argument is exactly the same (although a temporary solution) as changing the defconfig for those builds.

As I said, the change I suggest is to set the timeout that phhusson actually desired as opposed to what it is now.

As an aside, I noticed that the kernel is running with a 100Hz timer, which will fire every 10ms. Setting the idle timeout to less than that could cause sleep attempts every single timer fire (ie when USB is plugged in).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] |Jason8|:
Which phone do you have? Be specific. An AT&T Fuze is a RAPH110. You can find this model number under the battery.

Download the base package and extract to your SD card:

http://htcandroid.xland.cz/XDANDROID.6.01.10.7z

Delete system.sqsh from your SD card.

Download this to your SD card and rename to system.sqsh:

http://htcandroid.xland.cz/system-accelloremeter&smsfix.sqsh

Delete data.img from your SD card.

Edit startup.txt on your SD card and make sure it looks like this:

set ramsize 0x10000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set mtype 1910
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline "lcd.density=210 msmts_calib=0x7a.0x5e.0x35a.0x37f clock-7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=-1,-2,3"
boot

The only thing you might have to change is the mtype. I don't know what phone you have, so I can't tell you what mtype you need, but RAPH100 and RAPH110 both work with mtype of 1910.

Pre-Installed apps

Hi,

Is there any chance of a package without pre-installed apps? I don't understand the logic in embedding them into the build in such a way that prevents the end user uninstalling them.

If they were placed in the AndroidApps folder, users would be free to keep / remove what they like, not forced into keeping applications they do not want.

For instance, I would like to be able to remove the htc keyboard, and keep latin_IME. Even when disabling HTC's offering, I can see it running in the task manager.

Just my two cents / pence.
