Vibrate on Text AND Outgoing call issue?

Hey so i've figured out how to get my phone to vibrate on incoming calls but it doesnt do anything on a new text ??? which is a bummer considering i cant keep my phone on ringtone cuz im always in class and i text about 10K a month =/ I waited so long for a build with the texting resolved but now I come across another issue :(

O on the 20100204 build has anyone been having issues making outgoing calls? Sometimes when i try to call I cant...the screen shows Dailing but no sound through the handset and no incoming call on the other phone? this happenes sometimes tho (usually when i need to make a call the most :( ) can anyone report on this issue as well?

I have copied the android version of 08-02 on my phone, A Dutch T-Mobile Vario IV, The HTC Raph300.

But when I boot it (with the Raphael startup.txt) I hangs with the following message, it is continuing repeating it:

"Something used microklt_lcd_ctrl, this function should no longer be used"

What is going wrong, or what am i doing wrong?

Please assist

If anyone is still having problems installing the gallery, go into the market, search for gallery and install the Multi-touch Gallery for Droid by Bread and Butter (not the duplicate by Android App team). It's exactly the same as the standard Gallery, with multitouch hacked into it, but on our phones it'll behave exactly like the standard Gallery that won't install.

2/8 Build problems

Well just when things were looking good, now I'm having a random lock up issue that comes out of no where. It seems very random, and everything freezes. I tried some basic things like removing battery, then rebooting and all that good stuff. I don't notice any specific things I'm doing that would cause it.

Even the buttons lights freeze on what they were at last. So what should I be looking for to resolve it? Or should I just start clean with new SD card copy over the 2/8 build files? Please advise
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] maury1234:
feb 08 release works nice but theres some bugs here and there..

however , i like it! thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
I love what everyone is doing with this. I am currently out of work and am semi computer illiterate and was wondering if there was anyway I can help in getting this process of android becoming a real rom? A little tutorial would help with what is needed and I can pretty much take it from there.

BTW is it just me or is anyone else an Android app freak!

EDIT: Does anyone know of a program that can backup my contacts and put them on android. For some reason the Energy rom that I have can't put my contacts on my sim card.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Homeryz:
The best way I found is through GMail, you can sync WinMobile to Gmail then once you login to Gmail in Android it will sync your contacts.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
Contacts

GMail is right now the easiest way to sync the contacts.

Lucky you if you can get them on your SIM, I cannot, with almost 1400. Do not forget that copy to SIM may let you loose some multiple entries for one contact.

Look for a program called TBExport to export your WinMo contacts to an excel CSV, edit with Excel (don't forget that the colums should be text otherwise you end up with an E-11 or so phone number), import to gmail and sync with Android. IF your contact structure is OK, easy as 1-2-3 if not just a little with the Excel sheet.

For all with tons of contacts, gmail may fail to import 500+ contacts, just split the csv in smaller portions.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Insaneboy:
My phone copied the numbers on the sim as new numbers like Name /h Name /w.

Then i uploaded them in Gmail which fixed them and now they're ok. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] powergate:
Is there any news about the market? its still broken over here with the 8feb release. Get an network error.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] andre.mud:
Weird, everything is working fine here. But then again, i have a RAPH300. Probably things work different between the releases.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rattenfanger:
I have the same problems with my RAPH100 with the two buttons on the right side (you also mean right side do you? Back and end call are on the right side for all Diamonds and Raphaels)

To clarify things up:

Buttons 6 and 7 stops working after some time (hours?). When I swipe (make circles or swipe up and down) over 8 they work after that but only for a few seconds or something.

Can you reproduce this "temporary fix" for the two not working buttons?

everything seems fine for me so far apart from wifi freezing and android not being able to shut down have to soft reset.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
I'm not sure if anyone has stumbled across this but the reason for the terrible battery life is that when using the home/back, Activate/end call buttons it makes the keyboard light up as well. Also could be the reason for it being so hot as well for us Touch pro people.

What does this "INITIATE 3D IN WINMO" mean for the Diamond? Does XDAndroid now support OpenGL w/ hardwaresupport?

Well, as written on the first page:

Strange error ---> no boot possible

I get a strange error. After "shut down" of android (waiting at least a minute prior soft resetting with the stylus) I now experience a strange error resulting in non booting android at all. No changes were made, it's the original Feb.4 built zimage and modules.

Last seen errors prior hang:

dev/block/loop1 no such file or directory

Failed to find system.img on SD card

bin/sh/ can't access tty job control turned off

.

.

.

I tried to move the data.img away from the root to rebuild it without success, same error.

Any way to recover?

The same built with less apps is running on another SD card (my "golden copy") and all apps worked on this one as well, WinMo apps work without hitch so I guess it is not the SD card itself.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
Just had a similar error. Not sure what caused it but I did a reformat of the sd card and reinstalled all the data(fresh start) now it works just fine.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] freaksey:
well, this doesnt really answer my question(or i dont get it). I wanted to know if XDAndroid now supports OpenGL hardware acceleration when I start a 3D App before running Android. Because I thought it wouldn't.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Brav0:
XDAndroid does support hardware acceleration. But in order to make it work you have to start a hardware accelerated program (like Sense) in Windows Mobile. Then boot haret.exe and viola it works in XDAndroid!

I switched to the latest zimage from the project page. Seems to be smooth, but I Do not have the boot animation anymore, is this normal when not using the one from the 2/8 build?

Also my hw3d is not working anymore either. I havve sense 2.5 loaded on boot and still nothing when I try labrinth in 3d mode. Any help?

Also it seems very stable but froze when I tried loading a live wallpaper, particularly the stars one.

will also be in htc linux today on irc under nixk lilsnoop --haha

Thx in advance

How come when I try the latest zimage in

theres a small virtual keyboard on the top right corner(It only happens on my sisters diamond)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
Though I was scared to death to format my "daily use" SD card, FORMAT did the trick.

Strange things seem to happen for a reason:

I just copied everything including android, zimage, data.img 1:1 back and it starts right away AND I have working ringtones YEAH FINALLY!!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] babijoee:
add msmvkeyb_toggle=off to you startup.txt
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] danbutter:
May I ask what exact method you used to get this done? Use windows? FAT?? What is preferred? 32?

I have my stuff backed up so I can try again with little effort.

I tried it and android could finally see all of my (mp3) music, but not (ogg) ringtones.

I tried all the methods I could find in this thread to get ringtones to no avail.

The only thing I can do is play a song and set it as ringtone, but can't get notifications like texts and emails and the like.

Using Build: htc-msm-android@20100217_162729 in with everything else fresh from the feb 08 update.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
I use the Feb 4 built since I had only trouble with the Feb. 8 version (even tried on my "test" SD card which is an empty 1 GB).

Included in this built is "modules-2.6.27-00845-g502e825"

I copied everything from my SD into a directory on the PC.

Deleted in this directory all Android directories and copied 1:1 my formerly saved "golden version" back to it (including data image which contains GDE, Better Home some live wallpapers...).

This "golden version" is nothing else than a copy from my 1 GB card after I installed GDE and Better Home 4 (just a keeper as "last known good version"). I didn't install or changed anything afterward and JUST suffered my "sound issues" since the 8GB SD has lots of "illegal" files on it (mainly music files).

Formatted the SD FAT32 with "default allocation units" (what Vista x.64 suggests).

Copied everything back.

Started WinMo.

Launched haret --> Worked incl. sounds and sound profiles.

Restarted, launched haret from Gen-Y dual boot ---> see above

I tried the "ogg" trick before with no positive results though I could see and play all my music, mic and speaker were working and screentabs worked as well ???

After the format all is fine (don't ask me why).

BTW it's a SanDisk Class 6 8GB SD.

Good luck
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
Glad to hear it worked for you. I along with you was scared when it happend. I thought my new Sandisk 8GB got fried!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SprintGuy765:
Thanks babijoee, that did it.

And what is the difference between the kernel in

http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/htc-msm-android/ and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=606760

And I know the button swap(switching the power button and center button) works in the TP...How can I make it work on a Diamond?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rattenfanger:
My answer is a little bit to late but I may have a solution for other users.

I had the same problem with Android installed in the "root" of the SD card. After one startup of Android a "Android" folder was created with a "data" folder inside it. After a restart I got the problem because of this "Android" folder. Removing this folder did the trick!! Now I copied all files from the root to the "Android" folder and the error never happens again :)

I hope this can help some people.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
Got a question. I have the HTC Fuze and when I am in android my copacitive buttons go heywire. Anyone else have this same issue? To give an example when it is in sleep mode(screen off) the back button starts lighting up and flashing sometimes. and when I use the system it'll go crazy and start effecting the system like if i go and open the apps it'll start scrolling up/down by itself.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tyguy:
I am not sure if I get this right. First I do not have an Android folder and second the "installation" into a folder named Android or Temp is obsolete at least since early December. Are you sure that this is neither a "man made" folder or a left-over from old Eclair versions back in the time when this thread started???
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bharris25:
Can't change wallpaper with the multi touch gallery though. In fact I haven't figured out how to use a personal pic as a wallpaper without gallery. Not all of the pics in the resource folder show up in the background changer either, I even tried putting a couple pics in there to see if it would work, no luck.:confused:

HELP!! :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
First one is development one, second one is considered as stable.

For example, currently the first one has broken 3D.

Exactly the same way as for TP, DO NOT replace "raphael" with "diamond", even if its' a diamond.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
Oops, double post
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SprintGuy765:

set cmdline "init=/init lcd.density=210 gsensor_axis=2,-1,3 msmvkeyb_toggle=off board-htcraphael-navi.alt_keypad=1"

what do I need to run new zImage and modules files. What I do now is delete old zImage and modules files, copy the zImage (with the file extension removed) and the new modules file.

Am I doing it right?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
It's a possible way.

The other way is to extract the files as is, without renaming them, and then edit startup.txt to match the zImage name.

I use this way, so that I can revert to this older zImage easily.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] cynepmeh:
Thank you.

I found why sometimes the HW buttons don't work. It seems that they are kind of stuck (i think the back button mainly). It stays lighted. When this happens the MENU and START CALL buttons don't work. I think none of the buttons work except for the HOME button.

It seems that the back button gets the focus when pressed and doesn't let it go. So none of its neighbour buttons will work.

When this happens I just touch (even without pressing) it and the END CALL button as well, and slide my finger a bit towards the center button so it lights up. That way I kinda get the focus off the back button and the START CALL and MENU buttons work again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] jasonace750:
How can we disable the keyboard lighting up when using the home/back, Activate/end call buttons? I'm so ready to use this has my daily build but need more than fours of moderate use without charging.

BTW - When the camera, GPS and battery issues are resolved I will donate $50 for my copy. :-)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TheDeadCPU:
Those LEDs on there might use 1% power if their on for a week. They don't use much power at all. You won't notice any changes by disabling them..
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] JesusFreak316:
The reason is that the system.sqsh that the sytem folder is in is read only because that is a property of sqaushed file systems. You would have to extract the contents of the system.sqsh to a folder and rebuild it as an img.

Babijoee or phusson: Could we add this info to the first post (not my words of course ;) as there are quite a few people trying to modify their system folder? And/or could you upload a second build every time with a system.img file?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
Sorry I meant that it is possibly just another thing that is making a problem. As for why it is so hot is because the system has to constantly run off the sd card so it is allways processing. BTW don't allways listen to the battery life. 2 days ago I had been playing with it knowning that I had a full battery and on android it was going all over the place. I forsee the battery being an issue untill it is able to be cook as a ROM.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
Why whould the phone be constantly accessing SD just because it's booted from there?

From my experience the phone is running hot either because it's really busy (=not sleeping) or because WIFI is on. I bet you would have the same prob with a ROM because your setup is flawed. In other words, put the finger on what prevents your phone not go to into sleep and you'll be happy.

My phones does not run hot since early releases in december where it was not sleeping. With carefully selected apps my phone lasts 12-16 hours with mail push, 3G, xmpp and google latitude phoning home regularly. And those times are not based on lab tests but on daily usage :p

And btw, running Android from nand does not change those times by more than 10%
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] owziee:
I have to agree with you chamonix, I don't think the heat problem is related to the SD, the Diamond also heats up a lot and it uses the built-in superfast moviNAND chip so there goes the storage card theory...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
Sorry but....

LOL
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] chamonix:
tztztztztztz ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] owziee:
Ok, so you're laughing because you mean the Diamonds internal storage doesn't operate faster (transfer data back and forth) than a separate storage card (in a traditional storage card slot) does?

Or is it because you believe the diamonds built-in memory requires the same amount of energy (power or whatever...) to run/access data as on a card in a slot and would therefore heat up because of constantly accessing (probably spelled wrong!?) the data in the internal storage?

I'm just curious...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] AkumaMax:
This is just my experience from using my TomTom GPS. When I use Google GPS my phone is pretty cool. If I use my TomTom with the maps on the SD card then my phone gets hot after a while. This is just my.02 cents. What build are you using. I am using the 8th build. I know most people are running on the build from the 4th.
