[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
my name xD you can think of it as 2 ways, neither of witch to do with halflife(although that is a good guess!) 1. the g is silent therefor "man fuzing" or "man im fuzing!" 2. the g is pronounced just as that, gee and "gee man im fuzing"

both corny yet both VERY very far from my usual name for everthing, which is afrothundrizr. don't ask me to explain that one xD

in relation to my wanting to update, DOES ANYONE ELSE GET 4-5 HOURS OF BATTERYLIFE ? im using the rom in my sig and on that i get 2 days on a single charge. with android im lucky to pass 3 and a half hours without actual readings of low battery (yes i restarted the phone and checked in windows).

its annoying amazing and surprising all at once, and thats why im wondering if i need to do more than just "update" my zimage ...

maybe i need to more thoroughly change packages or builds (sorry, im new to the android terms XD so used to windows rom speak)? or is this something that a small change could fix?

i mean its not like i have wifi on and the backlight up all the way, i keep wifi off and have my backlight at 8% of max according to my backlight app (which i love all my apps!) and im really just confused as to how im getting this horrible battery life

i have to switch to windows whenever im going to be doing something or at school because it wil just die in my pocket if i leave it on android. and even when i put it on android when at 95% battery it dies within 4 hours tops.

thanks for any help available kuz im stumped

It works now，:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] :
Android won't boot. The last relevant message is something like "Can't find system.img on SD card" and then it drops me to a shell.

I renamed system.sqsh to system.img, same error.

The problem appeared on the jan.16 build after I moved /media to /android/media, hoping that Android finds the ringtones. I upgraded to the 20100120 kernel build but the error remains.

EDIT: I renamed system.img back to system.sqsh and created a /media folder. Same error:

/dev/block/loop0: 11/65536 files (0.0% non-contiguous), 10335/262144 blocks
losetup: /dev/block/loop1: No such file or directory
Failed
Failed to find system.img on SD card
/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
/ #

That losetup error bugs me. Could that be the cause?

What's the output of ls /dev/msm* ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
Sound & Mic working!

Babijoee and R...

Sound and Mic are working now.

I reformated my SD and re-copied R's fuzepacked files and BAM all is fine. Not sure why though cuz I did exactly the same steps the last couple of days.

On to use Android a day or how long the battery will last.

Thanks guys!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TheAgent1982:
What did you do? Witch packages did you used? any configuration?

for all:

Any one know how to add more Localization? or languages support?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
I used the package from R^7Z referenced here HOWEVER I do see in your signature that you have a TouchPro2 not the original Touchpro. The first post states in nice blue color "THIS IS SPECIFICALLY MADE FOR RAPHAEL & DIMAOND GSM ONLY!". Though the hardware specs (not the screen) are very similar between both devices you may better look at your device forum especially following this thread here dedicated to Android on TP2.

Edit:

Seeing for country I guess you are looking for Hebrew support. Could get tough since it's right to left on top of the font support...

Found this link here http://androidcommunity.com/forums/9095-post2.html and a reference in xda to this site http://firstpost.org/?p=257 (sorry can't read it...). Hope that helps.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TheAgent1982:
As much as i have been reading, it only depends on StartUp.txt right configuration.

For Hebrew, i have read it, but i do not know how to use the Hebrew enabled files, where to put them on our sd-card root, they both talking on devices that designed for Android, and talking on files on root that we do not have on our ported...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vincentchan:
Sorry,what do you mean of lime one?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Sab3elbromba:
I must say you guys did an amazing job with this Android porting, it's working almost flawlessly on my TP, and it's very usable and responsive, a major major leap forward from the last android port.

Only problem I'm currently having is logging into my wifi @ my work place cuz it uses LEAP protocol, but I think this is an android issue not a porting issue.

Keep it up guys !
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Yea, that also looks like a bunch of jibberish (to me). So, are you saying at one point in time Android was working? What do you suppose you did differently? I've never messed with anything other than replacing the zImage and modules files. Now, I have attempted to mix and match a few things here and there and I must say, it seems pretty straight forward. Take one out, put something else in it's place, if it works, great! If not, put the old one back in place... so on and so forth... yadda yadda yadda... etc etc... :D

WEIRD!!! :eek: I almost feel like screaming out loud, "MIND FREAK!" LMAO okay maybe not! :p I was in the middle of having a mental meltdown because I couldn't get past why there were others that were not having success with this simple but VERY necessary feature. What did you do differently if you don't mind me asking? Or if you even know! I wouldn't hold it against you if you don't know or even remember... :D Now you mentioned you followed the steps exactly as I outlined them, meaning you also played a music file, correct?

@all:

I have been messing around with the sense build some and replaced a couple of files with similar files(unfortunately I don't remember which ones now, "DOH!") and it seems to still work! :eek: (this is what I am referring to as "mix and match")
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] thisperishedmin:
wow, very impressed with progress - amazing work to everyone involved. Thank you!

i have a raph110 (fuze) and got everything working...I was able to make calls, send and receive texts, etc.

I did initially have the ability to receive SMS, but not send them as some other users seemed to have. I went into WM > settings > phone > services > voice mail and text messages > get settings. I changed the text line from +1XXXXXXXXXX (where XXXXXXXXXX is actually a phone number) to 00XXXXXXXXXX and was unable to text in windows mobile. I tried some variations, none worked - so I got mad and reset it to original form (+1XXXXXXXXXX). Once I reloaded haret and got back into android, I was able to send SMS text messages. Point is - for any other fuze users running into this problem, it may be worth it to go into winmo and pull down those settings from the server again, upload something else, and than put it back to normal form. I'm not really sure - but its worth a shot if you get hung up on that... On the other hand - maybe just the simple reboot is what fixed my problem haha. Its hard to say, but I wanted to share the information.

I ran it for about 2 hours before hanging it on the charger for the night. Crashed by morning. Used for 2 hours today and was working on adding contacts, crashed in that process. For now, I'm gonna stay in WinMo but may try the fast boot ROM or just a clean WinMo rom yet before writing this off as unstable or unusable.

As a whole, the phone was more snappy, responsive, and fast with android running "over" windows mobile, than windows mobile alone could EVER be (settings, editing contacts, sending / receiving texts, opening and closing various apps, etc.). Its just absolutely mind boggling to me that it can be possible. Down with windows mobile haha.

Thank you again to all involved!

EDIT: As I'm pondering things... Has anyone else found that the stability of the WM rom they are using affects the stability of Android? I would think not...but I'm just wondering if a vanilla/stripped down rom would help things out any... Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] colo-natas:
HaRET unloads WM from memory when booting XDAndroid so the quality of your WM ROM shouldn't have any effect. Your power settings in WM do affect XDAndroid, though. Be sure you have all the auto backlight and screen timers turned off in WM. These settings seem to be written to registers in the device somewhere and don't get wiped when booting XDAndroid. Same for the power state of certain devices such as WIFI, 3G, GPRS, etc.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Razzee:
@ your freezes

try:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] thisperishedmin:
thank you for the suggestions and information...

colo-natas - I was aware of the problem for the backlight, but did not realize that it might also extend to wifi/grps/etc. Furthermore, I didnt realize the power saving timeout stuff could also have an effect. Thank you for the heads up.

Razzee - Thanks for expanding on the issue...Found the 4 options and took it off..I'll give it another shot!

Heres to hoping no microphone issues crop up if I get a call back from an interview haha
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] owziee:
Here's a little tip for new people who are going to start using Android on their devices...

I used google sync in wm to sync all my contacts, calendar entries and email and important stuff to my gmail account...

Then when you're in Android just sync it back to your device and you have all your contacts (with thumnails and all), calendar entries and other stuff in Android aswell... Very handy...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kiay:
how about text message? any method for that?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] fozziebear:
Thank You for the great work... Just wondering how do I load files onto the Micro SD card when it is in Android mode?

Cannot wait for further future updates.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] MiTMaNeK:
Waiting for new build =D

How it looks with new build? ;o)

I tried zImage and modules from Jan 20 02:12:05, but its stuck in deep sleep mode after maybe 15mins. So i roll back to 16.1 zImages and modules, i think its the best for my Raph100 at this time.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] jfran:
There is an app from sprite software, sprite migrate that allows you to transfer winmo / blackberry txt msgs to android, and sms backup that allows you to back up your messages in android to your gmail account, however have not been able to restore from gmail to handset. having said that, sprite backup allows you to backup sms msgs and you can restore it when needed.

you would need something like droid explorer, havent actually got it to work on my vista x86 laptop tho as handset is not been detected :(

Do you know how to get the Facebook Integration to sync with your contacts ?

On a Side note: NRG said on his twitter the following:

Looking at some of the Android emulators available
and thinking about doing a super lite energyrom with one of
these ports on top of it..

We might be seeing another Fast Boot Rom!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] owziee:
The first time I launched the Facebook application in Android it asked me if I wanted to sync with my contacts and I clicked yes and it synced just fine, no problems here...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] JesusFreak316:
I don't have a data connection on my phone, so I almost always have Wifi on, giving me bad battery life. But in your case, have you tried a task manager app such as the free advanced task manager. AFAIK, background apps can really kill battery life. Also, would it be an option to format your sd card and do a fresh install of Android on it using the 16.01.10 package? After backup of course. My $.02
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mchuntley:
I love Android on my Fuze!

I have gotten used to adjusting the power settings before launching it.

I have had only 1 freeze in the last 5 days of trying it out part time.

I would love to get more battery life out of it.

And like many others I am looking forward to BlueTooth/Camera/GPS. As an IT person I understand that this work is on your own time, and at your own pace.

So, what can I do to help with this effort?

Thanks,

Matt
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TheDeadCPU:
In Settings under Sync add your facebook ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mchuntley:
There are a few of things I am curious about.

- How do you adjust the calibration file to accurately represent the WiFi MAC address?

- Is there a way to adjust the synch frequency? In order to save the battery life.

- How reliable are plugin headsets with this build? 160110?

- How often are new builds coming out? And do you need to do a fresh install, or can you update?

Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
Read glemsom's page, or wait a bit.

Polling, even if once per hour is more consuming than pushing. You seriously don't want to pull. (I mean with google. MS' push is push+poll every 7minutes). Anyway, it's somewhere in the global sync settings

What I do (which works at 100%) is: plugin headset, start a call (it doesn't have to answer), then launch spotify. It might work in some other situations though. This needs the snd.force_headset=1 option.

No need to do a fresh install most of the time. The frequency heavily depends on our available time, and progresses are quite random. (for example I thaught last sunday that I could get flashing + camera + gps working. but for both of them there is little missing things I don't know.)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] warri:
When i do this, it doesnt update my contacts Pictures, and when i click on "facebook profile" in their information page, it takes me to my facebook.

On another side note, does anyone know how to get the Sense UI Clock for this android version?

Also, what exactly are the Fsck000X files are that are created? Do i need them, can i delete them?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mchuntley:
FSCK Should stand for File System Consistency checK.

As to if you can get rid of them, I am not sure.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
thanks but no thanks, the version of android i use comes with a task manager and i always kill unused tasks. no problem there.

the formatting my card and starting over..... im pretty sure that doesn't actually do anything, formatting the card should have NO effect on the files when there is nothing on the card or not much and even if there is anything having android based from the root eliminates that.

but really everybody, did you just ignore my plea for help ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] jfran:
yes they can be deleted, anyway you will find with each reset / power off, another such file is created

@ warri - there seems to be a bug with the facebook app and contacts, but it would be great if you were actually taken to the persons profile
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
Reporting back on sound and mic

On my 1 GB card all is working fine meanwhile (sound, mic, ringtones, music, notifications etc.).

I deleted the old config from my 8 GB card, clear apps and cache dir and copied the working 1 GB card config.

Now my daily 8 GB card has working mic and speaker (in call) volume is working but neither sounds (ringtones, music, notifications etc.) are working. So far I can live with this as the phone vibrates on incoming calls. Will have to check for weird filenames again but at least an 80% success so far.

Ran Android the whole day today (charging on and off the cradle) and would state that the battery life is almost comparable to my WinMo especially since I "played" a significant time with my Fuze today (sure had to show it off "See ANDROID ..." - LOL).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
and how do i go about syncing my winmo with google?

that is one holy piss moment if he likes this port !
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
There are several ways to do it.

BTW there is a web page called "google" which may help you.

Try this link as a start

What you need is a gmail account. You can also extract your contact information to a CSV file using Thunderbird and import them into gmail in case you don't like the sync option.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
thanks ty but by now you know that its better to just not answer than be snobby

the thunderbird option is what i was really looking for , or maybe an APP that you could download. theres a difference in asking question and asking to be fed.

im not of the fed variety.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
No comment to your reply since it's kinda OT anyhow.

Just to put it to a rest... I didn't ask an easy question and education doesn't harm anybody and I don't believe my answer was snobby. End of topic on that one.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
im sorry but i didn't say you asked anything. and the whole easy question and education part make no sense whatsoever. its probably a good thing i don't know what OT means.

anyway, lets make good use of this post :]

Does anyone who owns a fuze or raph 110 , experience their phone heating up abnormally while charging and running android?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
OT = Off Topic

I do have the same issue and some people here reported it as well. This could be the culprit for the bad battery life some people experience but on the other hand my phone is still kicking after 6 hours off the charger meanwhile and - yes - it's kinda warm especially when I chat through google talk.

Under WinMo I have this issue only while GPS running or video playing.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
education is GREAT when its presented nicely :]

thats a sad thing though to find that its not just me. i had hoped the culprit was my kernel.

im also having thoes battery troubles so i am going to start off with trying R's fuzepacked and see if my sound is working and if it fixes my battery woes.

my phone doesn't really get hot on android UNLESS i charge it. Even while im data intensive.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kenmaples:
Great to hear that you are working on them!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
my in-call volume speaker is low also.. adjusting the volume sliders have no effect.. but they can hear me nice and clear tho..
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
Battery problems - a thing of the past

wifi problems - the only thing holding me back .....

i installed fuzepacked and now all of a sudden my wifi stopped working from the start up, it says "unable to start wifi"

any tips ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] JesusFreak316:
Sorry about my nonhelp earlier, like I've said before, I'm still very nooby at Android. :) I tried. My understanding is that the kernel has a quick charge option set to where it charges very quickly (duh) but at the expense of heat. Someone earlier mentioned that and said they would prefer a slower charge to prevent damage to the phone battery. I think it was posted in the last week. I would find the particular post but for some reason in-thread searching doesn't work for me, while the forum-wide search does. :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
Hmm reading your post I had to check (running the same built).

Starting Android with WiFi on from WinMo - WiFi on and works.

Switch off in Android works, switch on fails.

Reboot with WiFi off.

Switch on - Fail (cannot switch on).

Copy Babijoee's Jan 16 pack (no data.img to let it rebuilt)

Same test.

WiFi can be switched off and on w/o problems.

Conclusion: Babijoee's pack fully supports WiFi.

Next test... Bab's built with R's zimage.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] babijoee:
Hmmm i think its time for an update :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Vidarshui:
great, waiting~~~:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] moffe:
me too ;)

Weird thing with these restarts. In about 4 days, I had restart after 10 min, 6 hours, 1 hour, 3 hours. So it seems to be totally random. :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] beboxed:
I keep on reading that battery life is solved and a thing of the past, but my DIAM100 only stays alive for 4 to 5 hours. I use the package from 16jan with the kernel from 20jan at the moment but battery life has never been very good since with android (and i tried every release since 2008)

I did all the WiMo powersafe tricks and flashed my radio to v1.13.25.33. My STARTUP.txt contains no pm.sleep_mode defines.

Are there any more tricks i can try to increase battery performance, right now it's really not very functional/practical to me :(.

Perhaps it's an idea to add some lines about solving battery issues to the first post.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sotong:
JHop,

I rebooted to WinMo, installed a cab to increase my volume, made a call, increased it to maximum during the call, ended the call and started Haret. Maybe its my imagination, but my in-call volume now is good enough. Volume sliders still don't work, but i have no complaints now. Maybe u could give this a try?

BTW, cant wait for the new build. Sweeeetttt!

Nope. You shouldnt have to. But if there are problems you might :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mmarks:
Sorry to show my ignorance, but I just spent a couple of days setting up the 16th build and installing apps. Do I have to overwrite everything and start from scratch with the new 22nd build or are there some individual files I can copy over?

Whoops... to late :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] babijoee:
You should be able to just overwrite everything. data.img is where the apps and user cache lies.

I can't wait for bluetooth (A2DP and AVRCP) plus GPS then it can completely replace WinMo - I keep being tempted to purchase an android phone but this release is so damn close, maybe I won't need to!

Seems like there are some hiccups up on Glemsom's Autobuilds. I'll post when its active as theres quite a number of update that pushes us up to date with nexusone tree :) thanks to MrPippy. For now the package has the latest zImage and modules. Expect smoother graphics, battery life, stability and speed when they are released. :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] IceBone:
