2g/3G opion

Currently, at least for me the option to change to 2g and 3 g is not available. The only option is to switch the modem on and off.

Is this option working for you, that would be great?

That's weird..I'm sure you did not explore this release to its fully extend.

Go to Settings ~ Wireless and Network ~ Mobile Network ~ Use only 2G

2g/ 3g

That is weird. I don't know if its the radio version I am using. If I go into the APN settings and goto apn type at the bottom and w/o changing anything hit cancel and go back to the setting toggle for 2g/3g, it is now lit up and allows me to check or uncheck, but other than that it is not lit up at all, so not allowing any changes.

Any tips? Am I the only one? Even tried resetting the modem. The only way I can get it into 2g is through windows, which doesn't make sense, but works.

I hope y'all don't think I would give advice without exploring it for myself. I only post to help as others have helped me. Anyway, no offense has been taken. lol

Wifi and video

So I have been able to watch video just fine using 3g data over ATT, but when I activate wifi to watch video, the video is unviewable, plays but only sound is consitent while the video is blocky and streaky. I checked the transfer rates, and the wifi is measured as much faster than my 3g, obviously.

So the question is why and how can it be fixed. I used nand in the past week and it worked fine, so I am thinking that the transfer rate is too high using data for a class 4 sd card. I don't know tho.

Well I have been playing around with the resolution settings, and wifi with video is still a problem. The best settings in my opinion are 320x428 with an lcd density = 145. Lokks good and the market displays my favourites, like pandora and spb tv.

Damn battery!

I have tried this and it seemed to work ok for most of the day today, the battery life seemed pretty good, down to 70% at 5pm; I was commenting to a friend, on the battery life seeming better, and I kid you not, less than 2 min later I got a warning the battery was at 4% and needed to be charged. I've run thru the "battery reset" in the link above twice and for some reason it isn't holding. (Side note) I have no battery issues when running shifu's v4.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mayad79:
What is the highest and lowest mV that you have seen in Spare parts?

For me the highest on either NAND or Haret is 4184mV, I am not sure about the lowest but I believe it was below 3400mV.

Well, I attempted to get these readings, I've reset the 0 count for the battery, and I've not been able to boot back into Android. Given the problems I'm having with it, I'm afraid I have to revert back to WinMo; for the time being.

I very quickly became adjusted to Android and can't wait for a "released" version. Too many bugs for me right now.

Again, excellent work to all involved with this project. Thanks for the effort!

Wow. Beta 3 is really fast when installed on ext2 partitions (comparing to sdcard version which is veeeryyy slooow). Only thing is that it sometimes hangs (strange for a linux, but...).

New suspend hack seems to work, but there is still big battery problem (suddenly drops from 50 to 4% i.e.)

is it just me or is it cause i didn't try the partitions, but it seems to keep freezing on me and losing signal? weird? iono.

but overall its AMAZING. can't wait for it to be stable and just use it everyday since windows mobile has no comparison to it. its faster, smoother, and even looks better in my opinion! haha. =)

Try changing board-htckaiser.panel_type=2 to 1 or 3. It should fix yours problem.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
Much newer. No more hanging, proper sleep, it's a true 2.1 build based off of OpenEclair with vilord's new installer... 5 home screens, working gallery, new apps, working cell-tower location, and some other goodies... I'm testing it now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] yazoo:
With board-htckaiser.panel_type=1 works perfectly. Thanks a lot!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dv84:
Thanks a lot poly. I also have a tilt and will be waiting for your updates =-]. A quick question do you boot via SQSH or nomorootfs? I currently have 1 4gb sdcard and am booting via sqsh until i get a good build were things work good then will be partitioning the sdcard.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nyunyu:
Is this the latest build? I still sees the same build on the first page. Where can I download it? Looking forward to use the 5 home screens :)

Btw, if you've capped your bandwidth, you could use filesharing site (e.g. share2many.com) as well.

Cheers.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] batrad:
Love your Android build

Quick question.. Can i delete the AndroidApps folder off the SD card after the first successful boot ?

waiting on the new build .... :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] iTTi:
Need info

Not working:

Camera

Bluetooth

Full Sleep (Hacked but not perfect)

YouTube HQ

'My Location' from cell tower location (doesn't work for any Kaiser build)

Exchange Calendar Sync untested

Full Facebook Sync

Voice Dialer/Voice Search (fixed as soon as vilord rebuilds libaudio.so with dzo's source)

Speakerphone*

These things still not working or it hasn't been updated?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
@batrad Yes, the AndroidApps folder is only needed to install new apps. Once installed, delete or move the folder or they will re-install EVERYTIME. It is nice if you switch builds and have a lot of apps to install.

@Poly you are a GOD! Thank you for the great work and for a wonderful build. Can't wait

@iTTi; I am sure when Poly released the next build, the OP will be updated with working/not-working.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] iceman21:
I am running a dutty windows 6.1 rom and I am considering running this rom instead of buying a new phone. Should I wait until poly's new release to go through this process or switch now? What's the consensus?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] anothertmobilemda:
wait for the next release...then go nand with it
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
Try it via HaRET; that way you don't change anything in windows or with the ROM; also if you don't love it (which I doubt as everyone I know that has tried it loves it), just reset the phone and you are back into windows where you started. Then when you love it, I'm sure you will want to flash to the new version coming out soon. You can't loose.

Kaiser GPS zImage

I have yet to try this out becasue of time, but I found this thread in the vogue area: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=624042

And if I am reading correctly, this zImage, RootFS and libgps.so (and stuff for NAND) should help with GPS locks on the kaiser. I know it will not help with the sleep issue here, but maybe with poly's next release it will not matter?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] yazoo:
Yes, I have played with it over the night. I really don't use bluetooth or camera (excuse me, but Kaiser's camera is ... (puke) ), I would like to use android all the time, but the mic and speaker don't work. I also have no WiFi connection. As soon as these are solved - I'll use only Android.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
OK!!! The new build has been released. Sorry about the delay, I found a permissions bug in the initrd.gz so I learned how to edit and compile initrd.gz today!

This is a completely new base, a true 2.1 Eclair build (2.1 is not Flan). It is based off of OpenEclair 1.1.1 STABLE, a AOSP and CyanogenMod-based ROM that has stability and longevity as its goal. Some major improvements over the last build:

true sleep

exchange calendar sync

5 home screens

Network "cell-tower" location (automatically determines location for Weather, Browser, and other apps)

Full GPS with AGPS (much faster fixes)

Always boots. Always. No more segfaults.

No more FC for LatinIME

New installer system

With this new installer system there is NO rootfs and we should be able to upgrade and theme this build WITHOUT losing data or wiping the system. I know there are a lot of changes so I've done my best to outline the process in the README. I've tested this build thoroughly but have not optimized any of the applications yet. It is a little more laggy than the last 2.0.1 build I released, but it is much more stable, so I'll get to optimization soon. Hopefully we can figure out how to reverse-engineer the hardware OpenGL driver for Kaiser, that will make animation smoother than ever.

Thanks again for all the support, we have a great community here at XDA always pushing the technology forward! Now, I'm going to drink a beer (thanks donors!) and get a little rest.

get the one that matches your kaiser. For my tilt this one worked: kaisimg-panel2-320-tilt-05-02-10.nbh

2. copy the andriodinstall.tar from this build to /andboot on your sd card

3. Hold down the camera button half-way on startup to enter the installer menu

4. Run Install without changing anything.

GPS Problem

First of I would like to thank polyrhythmic for all your efforts in getting android on our phones.

But...

I can't get the GPS to work. :( I have installed the os with the default.txt on my partitioned sd card and then rebooted with the Default-GPS.txt to get the gps support. But I can't seem to get any signal. I am currently running on a T-Mobile SIM, But i doubt that that is the problem.

Any help would be appreciated,

P.S on a side note my operator name is T-Mobileej not T-Mobile, which is kinda weird.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jcatt:
Are you using Haret.exe to boot into Android from WM or did you NAND Flash it?

If you are using Haret.exe then you just change the default.txt to default-gps.txt and hit run.

If you NAND flashed then I have no idea.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] JacenSolo2001:
I was going to flash it to Android, but I may be better off using haret until I know a bit more.....cool work though!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
This does run simular to the previous way, it does not flash the phone; it just does not use RootFS

=================================

@Poly; again thank you for the wonderful work

@anyone:

I had the can't find system.img issue. Make sure your andboot folder is lowercase and that as soon as HaRET starts press and hold the camera button ALL THE WAY DOWN. Do not let go untill the menu comes up. The menu should pop up before HaRET looks for the system file.

I can get the system to install and then quit the menu; then it creates the data.img; then I hit my issue, as soon as I see A N D R O I D is get an error that says

V O G U E A N D R O I D [ 12.221436] init: Unable to open persistent property directory /data/property error: 2

I even tried using the fix premissions on the menu and no luck. Anyone? I had this before and it was a space issue; I only had like 300MB left on the card; well the card I am using has 1.52GB of free space; so I don't think it is a space issue

[EDIT] I have been searching all night in XDA and everywhere else and it looks like this is kinda common issue across all phones; but the answer was never found, so I am starting to worry.

However from what I have gathered and understand this means the data.img is not writeable?; does anyone have a clean data.img that I can try and see if it fixes it?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] unilizer:
I've tried it with pushing the camera button. It took some time, but I succeeded to boot Android and it seems to be working fine.

So I made the mistake by thinking that it was like the previous builts, that you just had to run haret. But now you have to install it. I'm correct? Just to understand if my conclusion is correct, i'm new in this android stuff. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] JeckyllHavok:
@all:

how long does it take for you to get in the installer?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
Booting from NAND is going to be a major headache right now because you either can't run the installer or can't run WiFi, among other problems. vilord, dzo and the other devs know about the installer issues and will probably have fixed .NBHs built within a couple days. This is why I am not supporting NAND install yet -- more fixes and more testing are needed first.

This build settles down a LOT after first boot, so if it seems slow, just be patient. You can always check logcat from terminal or adb to find out what the Android is thinking about so hard.

@j101399j: cheers and thanks for the support. You're right, that means something went wrong with the data.img and it is not writable. I've attached a zip file with a blank data.img that should work correctly. Do NOT use the installer to wipe this data.img -- that might cause it to not be not writeable again.

@JeckyllHavok: Under 10 seconds, for HaRET boot with ext2 partitions
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] j101399j:
@unilizer; Correct, 1st you install the system, this will make the system file. Then when the menu comes back up, quit and it will do the rest. Once you have booted into Android and it is running, the next time you run HaRET, don't go into the installer unless you are adding something. It only needs to install the system file once.
