I have a titan, but the Dpad just doesn't register anymore after a few nasty drops.

Is there any automated haret install? Or another button I can use? The dpad doesn't work, but everything else does.

And I was just using haret .5.2 and android 1.5 on the titan, and that autoloaded, why can't this do the same? (Please god let it do the same somehow)

unable to boot after install on NAND

Hi all,

First, sorry to my english and great job to all.

I follow all instructions to this thread : "How to replace Windows Mobile with Android (Guide)".

I install android on NADN, after step #8, ("quit install") and reboot..

So i have a message and unable to boot.

This message is :

"ANDROID [5.769926] init: Unable to open persistent property directory /data/property errno: 2". :eek:

On my SDCard before install, i found:

1 folder andboot (with all files to androidinstall.tgz - with 2 folders, one is data and other is system )​

an other is AndroidApps​

Thank to your help, so i'm "Noobs" and the thread specially for noobs is really good :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WillyB82:
alright fixed the problem i had by installing the update...phone and data work fine now..only other thing i noticed is that when i get a call the phone vibrates like normal but the ringer will only ring once....anyone got a fix for that
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] babyboombros:
RESOLVED !!!

Ok, Android is actually on process to boot.

My problem is i had"dezip" androidinstall.tgz and i copy 2 folders in SD.

ERROR!!!

The androidinstall.tar file should be copy directly on /andboot folder.

Sorry,

GREAT JOB !!!!

SIM PIN futre plan

Hi,

is there a future possibility to use the SIM PIN?

The actual solution to deactivate the PIN is due to "security" reason a little problem.

Also some provider does not allow to deact it.

Since Camera now works on Eclair I have produced an Update for Polymod 2.1D, I have tested it on 2.1D and it works fine, as with all eclair buils at the moment there is no video and using settings FC's, but camera takes pictures, quality is reasonable.

This update should also work on 2.1G, but is untested since I don't have 2.1G available right now.

Download the file : http://rapidshare.com/files/403295493/21DcameraUD.zip

Unzip and place the androidupdate.tar file in the andboot folder of SD card, update and don't forget to 'fix permissions', and 'clear Dalvik cache' after update.

I seem to be having this same problem. I apologize profusely for reposting but I cannot seem to find the answer anywhere. I am using the ATT Tilt. 1 gig microSD fat32. Everything goes correct until I hit the "run" button, then it gives the

I have tried it both holding down the center dpad, (on the bottom of the phone) and not hitting anything. Either way it immediately skips past that part and gives me:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nemuro:
I now have installed polymod delta + the camera addon.

Works better than VanilijEclair and I am more satisfied with this one.

Some problems:

1. I always have only 2 of the 4 GSM signal lines.

2. Some games/apps like Shoot U! Lite, Zenonia and AN3D Benchmark, appear with the graphics heavily distorted, like someone changed it to a diamond shape and scaled it to lengthen the aspect ratio. The app, however works, stuff move around when I touch the screen, but the screen remains distorted. (see the attachment)

3. Android is a tad faster than the windows mobile but I would like to make it even faster, any thoughts?

4. If I call this phone and close immediately as I hear the beep ( sort of under one second ), the android phone either just vibrates and does nothing, either does nothing and doesn't display someone called. It seems that it needs about 1-2 seconds after the beep the caller hears in the phone, to display someone is calling.

5. When in an app and when you get called, it shows a black screen, vibrates, and after some good 8-10 seconds, it displays the call screen. Is it because kaiser has poor ram and processor?

6. Is the neocore still possible to run in this build? I saw it on the screenshots the topic had on the begging and it had that cool 3d gundam in it.

I mean, I have problems with 3d games ( see the attachment) and I suspect 3d acceleration doesn't work with me.

7. The Nexus Live Wallpaper and the one with the leafs, won't work.

8. How do I access the files on it? It won't mount when I connect it to the pc via usb.

9. When I connect it to a pc with windows 7, it randomly repeats the notification tone and displays I connected it via usb with a pc.

10. Is it a way I can type sms messages using a keypad touch keyboard? The such with 1abc, 2def, etc. I have large fingers :)

11. Reboot freezes after it shows the loading screen a few moments. The phone does not respond and I have to take the battery out. Either on normal or recovery mode.

Any Thoughts? Thanks!

PS: Keep up the good work guys. The day Kaiser/WM HTC's will run Android just as good as WM is veeeery close.

edit: on 6, neocore works. How come this works and displays 3d and 3d games don't work? :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
This error always means that the kernel cannot find the system installed to nand, or sd card for haret users, as you have said, you cannot get into the installer menu by using the dpad centre button.

This can have a number of causes, one of the most common is either not holding the button long enough, or hitting one of the other buttons accidentally.

When you reach the 'hold dpad' message, you should see '^@' on the screen directly below the dpad message, any other symbol such as '^@^B' means you have hit another key, which makes the installer fail to launch. If you see this symbol but release the key before the installer opens it's first dialog box, it may also fail to start, if you see no symbols then the dpad is not working correctly for some reason, possibly a bad nbh flash.

There are other ways to get the install menu, the volume up key, ( the softkey on the upper right of the dpad, marked '-) or pressing and holding the centre of the touchscreen should also work.

Remember not to rush, wait until the message shows, then firmly press and hold the key down until the installer shows the dialog box.

If all three methods fail, try another kaiser eclair nbh, I tend to use kallt_kaffe's since they are up to date, and come with loserskaters nbh editor, so remember also to edit the nbh to the correct settings for your panel type and build.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
Phew, quite a list, lets see what I can do ;)

1. yes, signal strength does seem lower than WM, but since there is no real standard this can be misleading, however for me using a 1.65.xx.xx radio seemed to help.

2. I don't run games on my kais, but have seen a few issues with them, remember that in general games run at the very edge of performance on most phones, and also we are running on hardware that is really not quite as fast as those which the software was designed for. However all is not lost, newer nbh's are usually more stable than the older ones, provided they are edited with the correct settings, especially regarding the eclair and 3d settings, loserskaters editor is incredibly useful in setting your nbh up before flashing.

3. The speed on kaiser is always going to be a little slower than WM, due again to the hardware we are running it on, however tuning down such things as window animations, using compcache, and killing tasks using taskiller may help keep the system more responsive.

4. Known issue, the phone does have a lot of delay before it responds, there have been a few posts on speeding things up, scattered here and there throughout the forums, it affects most non-native android builds, not just kaiser, and although faster now, is still a bit slow at times, see point 3, speeding up the whole system can help a little.

5. It's not so much poor, as not what android was designed to run on, we do the best with what we have, for comparable speed and stability we would need the same chipset as a G1 at least.

6. not tried neocore, so cannot offer much help with this, however 3d is set in the kernel, so a newer nbh, with 3d set may be an answer.

7. Yup, some of the less intensive live wallpapers work reasonably well, and some just fall over at the slightest excuse, it may be 3d related again, or just to damn powerful for our hardware, hence the reason I don't tend to use them.

8,9 USB is not fully functional, as far as file transfer goes, adb may work, it may not, USB is decidedly flaky, for file transfer I just use an SD card adaptor and reader on my PC, it's not perfect, but it's never failed yet.

10. I'm certain there are ways to change the present keyboard, I also have large fingers, but tend to use the hardware keyboard for sms, it's just a question of getting used to it.

11. Reboot does not work properly, neither from the power off menu, or the reset button, either shut down and restart, or pull the battery and restart, how often do you need to reboot anyway?

The day kaiser can run Android as well as WM is already here, mostly, there are some issues remaining, but generally it comes down to individual usage, I find it much better than WM, but my needs are simple, sms, music and internet access for news and weather, a little gps on occasion, android on kaiser meets all these needs perfectly, for me at any rate :)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
You don't say if it's Haret(SD) or Nand install, if Haret it's likely there is not enough space for android, 1GB is really pushing it, since you need the installer files, haret files, and the installed system also, this may work if you have nothing else on the SD, but it'll be tight.

I'd recommend getting a 2GB card if you can, this will run android no problem.

If this is nand, well try Polymod 2.1D it's the last version produced, and has some improvements over 2.1G, ( greek alphabet, Gamma is before Delta ;) ).

And get a recent NBH/zImage from either Dzo or Kallt_kaffe's threads, they are the most up to date.

Looks good to me, however I am a kaiser owner, so my knowledge of Polaris is limited, perhaps I should have read more, since I missed that you were using Polaris.

That said, it could be a kernel problem, I'd try kallt_kaffe's vogue/polaris NBH from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=660158

Not sure about editing polaris nbh's so I'm afraid you may be on your own there, but if the nbh editor fails, you could try hex editing the nbh to fit your hardware.

Sorry I cannot be of more help in this.

Edit 2

I install using Haret (zimage, default.txt, etc.) from Vanilj RLS7c, replacing the Anroidinstall with Poly's 2.1D. Almost all works well (WIFI, BT - not really tested yet, GPS, Camera - using your package above). One thing bugs me: the phone won't play any sound when ringing, although I have selected it. The vibrate works though.

Is it due to Radio? I'm on 1.70.18.02, which works well with Kaiser Essential ROM 23569 by af974.

After using it half day or so, the phone rang (sound came) and also the incoming SMS. I guess the build needs to 'mature' a bit over time. Just an observation

i need some things:

- Working Astro .. on my android says : expired version , install new ( and hangs on this pop-up note)

- Camera update (if there is one)

- Fix for the restart and shut down button.. when i press one of them it hangs in.

Please help me. if there are no updates for what i need please tell me wich android soft works better then this one, i like it but i really want my phone to work good.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] matcha20:
1.) I had the same problem with Astro, I just pulled an updated version from another release (I think Incubus26j's SuperEclair), extracted the contents of polymod's androidinstall.tar, and replaced the polymod astro with the updated astro (I actually renamed the updated astro with the name used by polymod, worked well). After this is done, then just use 7zip to create a new androidinstall.tar

2.)The camera update is provided a few pages back in this forum, just download and update through the boot menu.

3.) Restart simply doesn't work, at all. Either shutdown the phone (shutdown works fine), or pull the battery.

I've recently gone through just about every kaiser compatible release available. With polymods 2.1d everything worked out of the box (wifi, 3g, bluetooth, camera [w/update], responsive dialer, etc). Another that I've found to be VERY responsive (faster than polymod, but less compatibility, in my case anyway) is Incubus26j's SuperEclair 6.1. The only reason I went with polymod is because with SuperEclair, I can only have either wifi or data working at a time, due to settings.apk crashes. If you can get everything working (I think compatibility may be unit-specific) then I would go with SuperEclair, because it has relatively current development, and I think polyrithmic has stopped developing polymod.

I've also tried various Froyo's, but they are just not responsive enough on my phone for everyday use, and they don't allow installation (or access, beyond using a file manager, as far as I can tell). VaniljEclair is ok as well, but it's a very barebones release, and it sounds like you want something which works out of the box. Hope this helps./
