I tried it on Eclair, I can finally see all the missing apps now. :) But it force closes when I try to install an app. :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
Decided to install Android on my phones Nand, and I'm stuck. At first, I got the text to appear and scroll, but I couldn't enter the setup. Then somehow, I got the text to fly by and scroll across the screen. Got Android installed, and realized I used the phone screen type.

Flashed with different screen type, and I'll just see the start up screen, and it won't start the scrolling text. Anyone know what causes this?

**EDIT**

God dammit, I got it to boot and installed linux. Then I decided to install the BT update and it wouldn't boot again. I just look at the Windows logo, waiting for it to boot. I have to perform some magic voodoo dance, by removing the SD card and battery a number of times before it boots.

Does it matter that I have a aftermarket 1600 mAh battery?

**EDIT**

Ok, now I see text that says block 46 is bad and block 412 is bad. I don't think that BT update was suck a hot idea. ****, gotta reinstall Android again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
I tried messing with the battery_capacity and tried different values but it all ended up with my units (according to dmesg) kept increasing everytime I changed it.

I ended up removing those lines from sysinit.rc, charged it full (check with dmesg and see when it stops increasing), then deleted /data/system/batterystats.bin

Not sure if it is totally OK but it seems a lot better than before.

EDIT: Update. Used it until it asked me to connect a charger. Continued until it died (maybe 10-15 minutes?) Tried to power on but got splashscreen then it turned off again without trying to boot. Connected charger and now it booted and is now charging. Without any previuos experience from this phone (got it from a friend who upgraded) or android I'd say it seems to work fine now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Bad blocks in NAND are normal. Won't go away by reinstalling. When I have troubles booting removing battery and holding powerbutton down for while (without battery) usually does to trick. Not sure about holding the powerbutton without battert but I know it is somtimes used as a trick to drain capacitors on laptops when clearing CMOS. Guess it can't hurt.

Also I had a really bad hang yesterday where it wouldn't boot unless I went into the android install screen and cleared the dalvik-cache (whatever that is).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] levanvy83:
My friend's TYTN II does not recognize any SIM cards, all SIM cards are no lock or PIN enabled though all those SIM cards are recognized by my Tilt with this build.

I updated 1.71.09.01 radio again but android still doesn't recognize.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
Thanks, I tried that idea and it works sometimes. I had to reinstall, probably because BT update did something to my install. It's beta, so I can't expect it to be perfect.

Also, why does my phone make that Sonic the Hedgehog sound effect constantly, when it's plugged into my PC? I love how someone used an old sound effect from an old Genesis game, but it's driving me nuts.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
@Dukenukemx 1st... I never install an update without opning it up first to see what it will change.

I can tell you that the BT update has nothing to do with booting the phone. no matter if it installed bad or not.

and 2nd the notification sound can be turned off in settings.

Update then fix permissions

When you install an update with the installer at boot. Always fix permisions before exiting.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ehoo:
Ive just wentnand with polys eclair to check if its update issue or something from the build , on my kaiser everything is fine no force closing , did u fixed permissions ? Or always u can back up ur data and do a clean install and see what happens after update

Is anyone else besides me having issues with phone "power on" now? I've flashed each version of polymod, some to just a normal haret on fat32, some to nand... Except for this build, I've never had any trouble turning the phone on, but with this build, well, it just won't turn on some times. I have to take out the battery and let it sit for literally 30 minutes, or sometimes hooking it to the wall charger will knock it out of its hang.

I also had a real tough time installing it. The installer would hang, or the phone would just reboot to a black screen (no backlight) and you could do nothing. Not even remove and reinsert the battery, no soft reset with stylus. All I could do was pull the batt, plug in the charger in and out, in and out, until it would boot again.

FYI, I use radio 1.65.xx but i've never had trouble with that. I don't want to change it really b/c i get such great battery life.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] carcomp:
Ok, I found my solution. Possibly solutions to others having booting trouble unrelated to making mistakes to the install process. Apparently something had happened to either HardSPL, or whatever controls the underlying base functions of the phone (like powering on, or whether the orange LED shows up when charging)

So heres how I fixed it...

1. I downloaded Cmonex_s_HardSPL3.29_SD.zip

2. Formatted the whole 1 gig sd-card as clean fat32

3. Put the KAISDIAG.nbh on the sd card

4. Flash that, then put kaisimg.nbh from the Cmonex file (it flashes Hardspl with SD Card), and flashed that.

5. Downloaded WM6.1-Official-RUU_Kaiser_CI....88.40.05_1.65.21.18_Ship.exe, renamed the nbh to KAISimg.nbh, put on sd-card and flashed.

6. resumed playing with android.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] clmartin22:
been running the 2.1g BT since Monday night these are the issues I have experienced:

Wifi - sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, it always connects but half the time it isn't usable to connect to internet or the market

BT - was able to connect to my laptop, but not to my jabra headset

GPS - not fully functioning, was working prior to this update

A few of the apps (beautiful widgets mainly) have been getting the force close. This is my only phone and I am using it heavily daily. I have been restarting it each morning, although I didn't do that today and it appears to be working pretty good.

I can say I really appreciate the work that has gone into this and will donate again for continued progress. Great job to all.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
Will installing Cmonex_s_HardSPL3.29 fix the random no boot with Android? I have 3.34 installed, and if I reset the phone I may not be able to boot. Not unless I pull the battery and hold the power button for a while. With a little voodoo dancing, I maybe able to boot again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] djkoa:
GPS should be working....ab the wifi...market isnt the best option to test. I know I did install ndrive and it required 100mb download. On market was really slow but in this update i was getting the full 8mb/sec. So: i believe market was and has always problems of speed/connection.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jcatt:
I just did the update as well, and it force closes on me too, only when it starts the download. I also made sure to fix the permissions after the update. I guess I could do a clean install but I don't know if that will fix it.

Anyone else have any ideas how to get the patch to work.

JCatt
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] carcomp:
Yes it will. I've had the 'sticky boot' happen to me a few times now. Flashing to that hardspl works each time. in fact i'm just keeping it parked on my sdcard called "KAISIMGfix.nbh" and rename it with my desktop whenever i need to fix this problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
Did you use nostuckinSPL or Force USB?

**EDIT**

Just tried nostuckinSPL and it still required me to pull the battery out. Though the good news is that Android does seem to boot faster. Not sure if that's possible, or maybe I'm used to seeing the colorful X animation.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
WiFi power level updates added to the OP. 'Low' is basically the default for polymod, so try Medium or High. Over 9000 is the old full-power hot-battery settings.

I'm trying to get the hacked full-market-in-QVGA working, there are some permissions issues. I'll put out an update if I can get it solved.

so i didn't notice this before, it's not a big deal but is anyone else getting 3g showing up on there phone? i just noticed mines not there =T odd?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mhurtz1:
I noticed some have reported issues, but has anyone gotten the new Speakerphone/BT kernel to work through Haret? Mine freezes with WinMo still visible immediately after showing Go Go Go... I tried a fresh install (downloaded haretinstall.zip, the new kernel, and the bt update zip) everything works fine as long as I'm not using the new bt kernel. I don't get any new files either (dmesg, bootlog, exports all not present after soft reset).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Dukenukemx:
There anyway to auto switch the power settings, without needing to install each update?

Surprisingly, Android has been very good on power for me. Considering I've been messing with it constantly, for 5 hours. Usually, installing applications and figuring out how to get things working.

Is that link (http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D) working for You?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] loserskater:
I haven't heard this mentioned much, but it seems like a HUGE improvement... DZO has made it so that you can use the latest zImage from his site and add hw3d.version=1 to your default.txt or if you are making nbh's you can add it to your tinboot. It defaults to 0 which is for donut, but changing it to 1 will allow hw3d on eclair. This was the only difference between the eclair and donut zImages so it makes life MUCH easier.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
@loserskater, Are you booting polymod successfully with dzo's latest kernel and 3D enabled? If so I'll recommend that kernel, since no one seems to be able to boot the ones I'm hosting.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] smartphoneguy:
My battery life seems to be pretty good since I installed the 2.1g build. However, last night it ran almost all the way down, so I hooked it up to my charger for the first time. It would not charge. I had to reboot into WinMo to get it to charge. Anyone else had that problem? I have not rebooted into Android and tried charging again, so I don't know if it was a one-time thing or not.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mhurtz1:
I can verify DZO's latest kernel will boot with this build. I added the tag hw3d.version=1. It's running polymod with comparable speed and effects as the kernel packaged in 2.1g, but I don't know how to verify 3D is actually hardware accelerated.

Bluetooth will pair and speakerphone is working. Thanks for the tip loserskater.

Possibly related, but why do some of the live wallpapers not work now? Just white screen or nothing? Not caring so much about the wallpaper itself, but maybe the underlying reason might be affecting other things too?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] wakka092:
I am having this problem. Earlier, the battery was at 1% and it was complaining. I plugged it into the computer, and it never really charged (showed the red battery outline with a slash through it). A few minutes later, it went back to 100%... :confused: Right now, my battery is reading 1% again and charging - the value hasn't moved. (I'm on NAND, by the way.)

The battery dilema is the only thing holding this device back. Everything else works swimmingly great. Faster than plain ol' WinMo 6.1. Any ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Adler87:
I am currently using DZO's latest zImage as mentioned with hw3d.version=1 added to my default.txt.

So the NBH's on DZO's site are compiled for Donut right? And I'm running Eclair in NAND so how do I make my own NBH's using the latest DZO kernels?

BT not turning on

Poly,

I've updated the Kernel and installed the 2.1G update but when I go to turn on Blue tooth it flashes and the turns back off. Is there anything special I need to do?

Also Ive run into trouble with my browswer locking up my phone, I have to pull the battery and when I restart I can get Messages,Market, or Astro to load. It givens me an FC on Messages and gapps when it starts up. Ive had to reinstall every time this has happened since the 2.1G install.

Problems

Hi,

I'm trying to get android running through haret and no matter what I try I continually get an unspecified error message, sometimes with pc=0082f640 at the end of it, sometimes the code is different.

I am running windows mobile 6.5, I have a 1gb card partitioned to 2 x 260mb ext2 and the remainder as FAT32. I have tried haret 0.5.1 and 0.5.2 and a few variations on default.txt.

Is there a simple mistake that I am making or is Android just destined not to work on my handset?

Thanks for any help,

Mark
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
If you are planning an EXT2 installation the partition numbering is important.

FAT32 should be on primary partition 1

EXT2 for system should be on primary partition 2

EXT2 for data should be on primary partition 3

If it still do not work, try with just a FAT32 partition to begin with. In that case the system and data will be installed as files in the FAT32 filesystem. It'll be slower but it's a good way to start. Also at least my Kaiser doesn't like all MicroSD card. I'm using an 8Gb card which works fine but I have a 2Gb Kingston card that it doesn't detect at all.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] rorrism:
Thanks,

That is how they are formatted, all I get is Haret saying it is starting Linux, the progress bar shoots along and as soon as it gets 100% the error pops up. About 10 minutes after that the handset becomes unresponsive and needs a soft reset. I have also tried as a FAT32 installation with exactly the same response. The card works 100% in normal operation.

I'm sure I'm doing something daft.

Mark
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
I've only tried booting Haret with this install: http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2010-02-20/haretinstall.zip/download

I just changed default-kaiser.txt to default.txt and edit:ed it to change zImage to zImage-eclair och added a panel argument to change my panel to "1" and that worked for me.

Not sure if it matters at this point but what Radio version are you using?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] take1mike:
Yo! This 2.1 is the one to beat i think.

1) its fast on my HTC Vogue.

2) Love the dialer app:D, wish more roms would use that one

3) really like the animation how they drop down from the top

Its not without glitches but I think its got potential. it can get stuck when I get a call and I end up missing it :mad:. Sometimes it wakes up and no icon on screen for a few seconds :confused:. There is so many roms out there with strong and weak points to them. I say you all get together and build on killers rom. Thats just me dreaming :D. Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Open the terminal emulator.

Run the dmesg command and it will tell you the mV and the mA.

While charing the mA will be postive (adding charge) and when USB cable is disconnected it will be negative (losing charge).

Type dmesg every now and then while charging and you will likely see the mV increasing and the mA decreasing. When the mV stops increasing and the mA is low (two digits) then the battery is likely full (no matter what any other indicators in the phone says). You may want to give it another 30-60 minutes charging just to be sure.

Now, do this (still in the terminal):

$ su

# cd /data/system

# rm batterystats.bin

# exit

$ exit

Not sure if it is needed but you may want to powercycle your phone at this point. Hopefully the battery indicators will now be a bit more trustworthy than before.

Just wondering how well the GPS and mobile tower GPS should be working? I have never been able to get a lock with GPS (Though GPS Test seems to find some satellites it never seems to lock any of them) and the tower location seems to put me a good couple of hundred miles away from where I actuall am.

Also I've had problems today trying to download apps from the market, they got stuck on "Starting Download..." and never did anything. I read around and also found in this thread the suggestion of activating Google Talk first but then found out that Google talk wouldn't open for some reason =/, so I'm going to format and reinstall in a sec, which should hopfully sort it out.

On the up side with the latest update I could sync and send files from my pc to my phone, don't have a BT headset to try that out on however. Wifi also works fine for me.

Using latest Radio and NBH's from here

As I understand Low is the default anyway so if you are satisfied the way it is then don't bother to install any of them. The higher you go the more you will shorten the battery life.

I assume higher power will increase the Wifi range at the cost of battery life.
