Running Android 2.1 on my HTC Fuze. Absolutely flawless! Seems much snappier and responsive than any winmo ROM I've tried to date. Battery life is somewhat worse but still pretty much acceptable. Going to flash with MichyPrima's WinMo ROM and use 2.1 fulltime!

Hi, I have a Touch PRO 1, I copied the newest 03.05.10 | 2.1 build to my SDHC card and the RAPH startup txt to my SD root. Started the Haret, no error, calibrated the touch screen, started the "X" animation. And nothing.

Animation is running, I waited ~20 min, but the android isn't started.

I tried it with a simple SD card with similar result.

What is the problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TesseractE:
Update to the latest zimage and rootfs, then delete the data.img file and try haret again. Worked like a charm for me on the same issue.

Have to say, though, that I didn't notice the 20 minutes go by when I had the lock-up issue... That damned 'X' animation is hypnotic!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kenl2007:
i am using diamond 2.

I have try many different Builds of roots and zImage.

But the phone network also cannot connect.

Also, when i play the music, there is no sound.

how can i solve this?:confused::confused:

I am using: 03.05.10 | 2.1 builds

Open your Startup.txt and remove "force_cdma=1"

GPS

So from what I am gathering GPS does not work yet on RAPH800? I have never been able to get it to work anyway. Does anybody have more info on if it does work on the RAPH800 or when it will? Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vincentchan:
Hello,it works fine.And noly one thing for me to change to android from winmo.That is sms encoding.I am Chinese.So I need sms to work correctly.For now I always got bad sms encoding.Anyway,great work.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kenl2007:
thank you~it's work~

But how can i solve the problem of no sound?:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tikkie:
I had the same problem, it has to do with your Startup.txt. First time I used the wrong startup (for RAPH800), it gave the same problem you mention.

My startup now is like this:

--------------------

set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 1910

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "lcd.density=210 msmts_calib=0x7a.0x5e.0x35a.0x37f clock-7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=-1,-2,3 pm.debug_mask=2 board-htcraphael-navi.wake=0 physkeyboard=raph"

boot

--------------------

Change and try again :)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] iknighty:
Are you sure you're using the correct STARTUP.txt file? :/

EDIT: And what do you mean by 'stops'? It freezes? What does the screen look like at that point?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yozart:
Hi every body,

I tried for the first time to install Android and already has a problem.

I downloaded XDANDROID21AOSP030510.7z and my phone is a raphael. So I use the RAPH startup.txt

Behind my battery, I Can read DIAM171 (Oo) Does it change anything?

THE PROBLEM: Android is booting, making stuff, asking to calibrate screen and then I have the 4 colours X.. I'm waiting for about 20 minutes and still have this screen...

Could you help me? Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Carssou:
Update the roots and zImage files and it should be OK.

Read the first message of this topic to find links to DL the latest roots and zImage files.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] angelofhope:
Hi, thought I'd post a little feedback.

I've been trying out xdandroid for a couple of days now on my RAPH100.

Using all autobuild files (zImage etc) from 20100514 (or latest before that)

Some findings:

I like how fast it is and the user interface (using home++)

Battery life of about 8 hours

Some errors (forced close), but rather limited

Some problems (starting from most annoying):

Sms delivery notification doesn't seem to work (I send quite a lot smses...)

Playing video (youtube and other) I get a flickering screen

Not yet been able to get GPS working

Oh,and I'm also looking for a widget like in the sense build for emails.

Finally,while writing this keyboard response is a little slow sometimes and sometimes seems to be oversensitive typing doubles.

And trying to be thorough,my startup.txt

Trying set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 1910

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "lcd.density=210 msmts_calib=0x7a.0x5e.0x35a.0x37f 7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=-1,-2,3 pm.sleep_mode=1 rel_path=andboot hw3d.force=1 board-htcraphael-navi.wake=0 physkeyboard=raph htc_hw.force_cdma=0 mddi.width=480 mddi.height=640"

Last:found while trying to copy/paste startup,that copy/paste could be easier, ctrl+c etc doesn't work.

Anyone who has ideas that might help me... looking forward to them :)

ADB issues

Hi,

Trying to access my Diamond 1 using adb.

Unfortunately, adb keeps reporting no devices are attached.

I'm sure I have lastest USB drivers (version 3, on Windows 7), my phone has debbuging option enabled.

What shall I try?

Thank's
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] matrix70:
25 minutes after boot, is still at the graphic display with four colors

crossing. I read that it takes 10 minutes, but I think 25 minutes

are too many!

I know that I give up on this version ...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] loermansa:
Some of us had to delete data.img/reboot a couple of times for it to work. But eventually, it will work.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] matrix70:
nothing to do. gate, reboot the linux, then arrives at lgo graph of 4 colors and stop them, the colors turn, form the star and all. not go ahead, do not create descktop, does nothing. I know that i'm incompatible with my HTC and Android. I'm sorry.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
Use http://xdandroid.southcape.org/Android-2.1-2009-04-14.2-phh.sqsh as system.sqsh. babijooe added some apps in its own one (market apps, so you wouldn't be able to update them, so I can't see the point ?!?), that crashes on load.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mchh:
Same here, windows detects the phone but adb shell won't (with Glemson's debugging kernel). Is there some special command-line to add to startup ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] matrix70:
can u explain me How can use this patch ? tnx
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Razzee:
afaik there are custom system.sqsh for chinese users. i've even seen guides to change that part, its a known problem

you have to add

echo 2 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/usb_function_switch

to your user config in the conf folder (at the end)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mchh:
As phhusson mentionned, rename it to system.sqsh and copy it to the root of your SD/internal storage. You should also delete data.img, might help.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kenl2007:
how can i solve the problem of no sound?:confused:

i am using diamond 2 with 03.05.10 | 2.1 builds and the newest root
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] _-1g1-_:
Now i have a 2000 mah battery for my xda diamond. Wow Android as first OS *_* . Thanks and now the battery display bug is away or did you fix it in the newer builds?

Cheers :) :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kangal:
Hey guys can you answer this for me:

Does Android 2.1 have a performance hit on the Touch Pro?

I know it is fairly slow compared to the Cortex A8 variants, so it seems like every ounce of power is valuable. Android runs through a VM (Dalvik in Linux) so does this cause (either noticeable or unnoticed) loss in performance?

Examples:

Does the interface have a lag (or a greater lag than the WinMo ROMs)?

Does programs run slower, in general, than they would in Windows Mobile?

Does it affect the performance while multitasking (slower or less number of open applications)?

Does it affect graphics performance (ie video playback)?

Does is affect emulation performance (eg GBA, SNES or PSX emulation)?

Can anyone provide comparisons with a benchmarking program or comment on this from their experience?

Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] matrix70:
i'm trying !!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] matrix70:
nothing to do ...

now it's blocked on " andorid" text screen.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
Android devs aren't stupid, only what doesn't need huge CPU is in the VM, everything is in native code. The interface is only described in java, and the native part (and hardware) does the most of the actual work.

So to answer every questions:

-Interface lag: It's mostly in native code, so it should be quite the same. But wimo's HTC Sense uses 3D hardware, while android uses 2D, so it could perform differently.

-General speed, for basic stuff, like an IRC client, which will be coded 100% in java, it will be slower, but an IRC client could run on a 2MHz processor anyway, so it won't change anything ... Games which needs CPU power will use native code.

-Concerning mutitasking, VM vs no-VM should let user run way less apps. But Wimo vs android, I've noticed I can have many more apps running in android than wimo, I've no clue why. Anyway Android isn't meant for multitasking as the wimo way of thinking, more like the apple (or wipho7 ?) way of multitasking: The apps still run, but whenever there is not enough memory they are killed, but they save their state, so they can restore at the exact same place, so all the user will notice (theorically) is a little lag.

-graphics are done in hardware, so no performance change. (Well not on our boards, but video playback doesn't work at all :p) (Edit: Actually, android uses hardware, while, AFAIK, wimo apps(but WMP?) uses software)

-For game emulation, they use native code.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TheDeadCPU:
Dude? Did you say you're European? Then you have a Raph100..
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yozart:
Well, thanks for the help but style have the same problem even after using latest rootfs and zimage.

The 4 colour X animation screen is never ending (40 minutes its running)

I unzip Latest-LinuxMSM.tar.gz and rootfs-20100514-696e8fd.zip at the root of the SD-card. (before, I cleaned everything = delete all previous android files and put a clean one)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] matrix70:

Can I find a 'pack' ready to use for Diam100 somewere? thx
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rvdgeer:

Read!

It's not that hard...

Read the first post, download the correct files, copy the correct files for Diamond to your Internal Storage and run haret...

Re: [prj][XDANDROID][android.2.0.1|2.1][11.05.10.]GPS works! now camera is only

There are a few apps I've searched for that don't appear in the Market search results (like the new NY Times app, and the Dropbox app)

Is this a resolution problem or maybe something else? any way of finding out what the restrictions on apps are so why they aren't showing up.

Any easy way to get everything to appear?

Cheers.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gm112:
Sometimes when I boot into Android, I have the same problem. It's often when I'm switching from landscape to portrait mode while Haret is loading Linux. However, other times, I am not so sure why it crashes there..
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Razzee:
its probably the footprint (or fingerprint?) of our build that is blocking them
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TesseractE:
After you've updated the rootfs and zimage, delete your 'data.img' file and run haret again.

Hey, devs... How possible would it be to have the boot program check to see if the modules/zimage/rootfs are the same version as they were at last boot, and if it's different, then data.img is deleted automatically? Might prevent the single biggest hang up folks seem to be having.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
LOL ? I'm never doing that !

There is no link AT ALL between zImages/modules and data.img. I'm not going to disable users just because of some totally unrelated random bug.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TesseractE:
Fair enough. Just seemed to be a fairly consistent issue.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kangal:
Thanks phhusson, your the best.

I'm searching for a replacement phone and it is either (most to least preferable) THE Nokia N900, Motorola Droid, then the Omnia Pro B7610, SE Xperia X2, then the Touch Pro 2, then the Touch Pro, then the Xperia X1.

But only if I can find one unlocked and in a good condition that meets my budget. Right now only a used Touch Pro fits into my budget, but if any of the other models fall into it (eBay/xda) I'll definitely get that instead. I know how PDA prices crash after a year or so.

And the OS I prefer is Maemo>Android>Windows Mobile.

If I do get one, I would like to send it to a chef so I wouldn't brick it (knowing my luck). If it is one of the models your working on, I'd much prefer to send it to you at a reasonable price (better than buying you a beer?). Would you accept something like that?

Cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gmanfuzing:
so your saying your going to buy a phone then directly send it to a chef so they can flash it for you xD thats just makin someone else liable for a process that will either be a success of fail at the same rate for both of you.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vincentchan:
How to switch 3g/2g network type.I use one click widget to do this.But when I click the 2g/3g button,it just show me the wireless network setting not just switch network type.

And one more question about cdma data.When the system boot up,the data works fine.But after some time ,maybe when the data is gone for no use for a while,and I cannot get data connection then.I need to reboot the system to make data connection work again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] naviru:
if you mean the chinese encoding in sms

http://panshisoft.cn/bbs/dispbbs.asp?boardid=3&Id=3

here is the patch from panshisoft
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vincentchan:
Thanks.Got it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] pzlmg:
for the chinese encoding, I can confirm that the"03.05.10 | 2.1 builds" doesn't need the patch anymore.

Hi,

I have problem when I try to boot XDAndroid on my Touch Pro

It hangs at line "input: microp-keypad as /devices/virtual/input/input5"

And it stays there...

Do you have any idea what is the problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] zen15:
try update rootfs and zimage, delete data.img, rename androidapps folder and try start haret again...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yozart:
I will try tonight

Thanks for your help TesseractE and Zen15. I hope to find an issue to finally try this amazing OS.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] reverendkjr:
I had that happen once when I had my phone in landscape mode while launching haret. I've also had a similar problem when I've had something plugged into the usb port while launching haret.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] naviru:
i think vincentchan might be using a CDMA one.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] yozart:
Thank you very much TesseractE and Zen15.

After doing what you told me, my android is loading. I just need to validate my google account but it didn't manage to connect via 3G. I think i'll need to use a Wifi connection for this step or is there a way to configure my 3G connection before configuring my google account?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] x_phir3:
I did't have the phone connected to usb nor the phone was in landscape :|

I tried with 2.0.1 and 2.1 versions but still same problem.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] naviru:
try menu button

i remember seeing something like "setting up network" in the menu while configuring google account
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vincentchan:
Does anybody get mms work?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vincentchan:
Yes,I am using cdma touch pro
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tbae2:
Many people yes, mine works fine. However that being said I am on a gsm phone and have never had any issues using mms.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] teorouge:
Hello guys, I'm losing it...

Please, is there anyone who is able to connect UMTS for Italian H3G (3)? I put the APN infos in the STARTUP.TXT but I just can't see or create APN in Android. Moreover, can't see H3G as a provider: I get Omnitel (!), Wind and Telecom each one listed more times, and a blank one. I'm using latest bits released.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
startup.txt ? AHUM

Kill the people who gave you this info, startup.txt hasn't been the way to configure APN for decades now. (ok only 6 months)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] nelee:
any improvements on comsuming batery on diamond??

ty
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] zappit:
nope...I get only 4 hours :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
Then stop being a noobish user and you'll more than double this time, which will actually be an improvement.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] foxtroit:
And how is that? I can't run android for long as well and even if 4 hours is doubled it's still only 8 hours which is not long enough for a usable phone.

Also i wanted to know is that when i launch Android(linux) Is windows been shut down?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] colo-natas:
Make sure your phone is sleeping. Some people have better luck when disabling the gsensor for orientation in the settings.

Yes, HaRET effectively clears windows out of memory when booting Linux to run XDAndroid.

The first couple posts contain quite a bit of info. You should review them if you haven't yet. Also, be sure to search the thread... most issues you'll run in to are common.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] colo-natas:
Which rootfs are you using? I am using the one in my sig currently and I can't get it to find anything using GPS Test.

I tried using google maps in WinMo and getting a fix first but every time I launch HaRET when WinMo has a GPS fix the boot hangs at the fsk for the SDCard.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tbae2:
Haven't been able to test GPS at all since that post. However I know it activates but no luck with lock. Perhaps I shall try tonight when I have some free time. I am using the latest rootfs from the site.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kaljo:
You're the one who said: search the forum/topic?

I already posted that if you have a fix in WinMo close the app. with the fix in WinMo and then start Haret
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] foxtroit:
Thanx i was just wondering if it would make a difference what kind of rom i would use.

But im loving android atm though due to the bat. drain i can't really use it (I like to play with my phone). But good work guys!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kaljo:
With the phone in deep sleep I already managed 16+ hours
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] phhusson:
But you have raph, diam's battery is really little :p (said to be 900mAh but I don't really trust it.)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kaljo:
Clock is still a very weird thing.

When in deep sleep the time stays correct.

When playing around with the phone the time fast looses minutes. around 2min per hour
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kaljo:
Glad I have a Raph:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] colo-natas:
And I am reporting that does not work for me. Want me to include the URL from the search result?

With the app (Google Maps) open or closed in WinMo the problem persists. Although when closed sometimes XDAndroid starts but GPS still doesn't function.

I see you're using the same rootfs as I am. When it works for you do you get GPS Test reporting data back or are you simply getting the GPS indicator in the status bar?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kaljo:
Few days ago I posted some pictures with GPS Test working and also my carnavigation, Well ok i'll save you some searchtime, attached them
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] colo-natas:
Ah, that was you. Okay, must be either better luck on your part or difference between the 100 and the 110.

Anyone with a Raph110 and functioning GPS?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mrcpu:
experience so far...

Downloaded the all-in-one package, unzipped to my card, copied the FUZE startup file, fired off haret.

Didn't recognize the calibartion screen, so it sat there for a while before I figured out I was supposed to do something. After I tapped it, the red/green/blue/yellow X animation came up, and so far, it's been about 40 minutes, and that's it.

I am not exactly sure how much longer I should wait. No buttons work, no screen taps do anything, so I'm not sure if it's really doing anything in there, or just stuck in an endless loop.

What should I try?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] colo-natas:
I assume you have an AT&T Fuze/Raphael 110? Try resetting the phone using the reset button by the USB port. Then try launching HaRET again once WinMo finishes loading. Make sure your SDcard has plenty of free space to create the ~260MB data.img file.

Did you freshly format your card before copying the files to it? When you say all in one package which package are you referring to?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TesseractE:
I was having issues with this, too. I tried a bunch of stuff, and I'm unsure which of them made it work, but it DID work after a while.

Quit Android and boot back in. After entering your settings, try either hitting the 'Home' key ('sleep' button on top of the Raph) to get to the Android Home++ screen, or do another reset.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] balans:
I see you got sygic running

does your device have device id ? mine only has a

-

shown so i cant activate
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Kaljo:
Yes, used the same id and key, maps etc. from WinMo. Id is SD-card dependant
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] cynepmeh:
I cannot activate it as well. I get no Device ID and the key for winmo doesn't work. Maybe it is device dependant
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] jeroen79:
I had the same problem on diamond 100 only a - as DeviceID , I think its because diamond has internal storage and no real sdcard
