UK Network Names

BTW, is there anyway to update the network names for UK networks? Looking at the names it detects, I would guess it's picking up the names directly from the cell towers which have the 'original' names still, and isn't mapping to 'new' names. For example - I think O2 is listed as BTCellnet and T-MObile as One Person to Person or something?

Been running NAND for over a week now and quite happy with the overall experience - battery life still seems pretty reasonable even though I've managed to get 3G working (although not used much this week).

GPS problems

has anyone working correctly Google Nav or other navigation software? With Maps, GPS loses signal constantly. I had the same result with Sygic navigator.

Thanks. (sorry for my bad English)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
After trying a HARET install and then a NAND install I've been wondering what may other options there may be.

The full NAND install (system+data on NAND) feels a lot quicker that the HARET+FAT32 install. However I suspect that with a full NAND install I will soon fill up the data partition.

So what's the optimal setup?

Is NAND + system & data on EXT2(sd) as quick as a full NAND installation? And is that setup really any faster than HARET + system & data on EXT2(sd) (expect boot time of course).

I'm thinking that perhaps NAND + system on NAND + data on EXT2(sd) may be optimal? Or is that not a supported combination?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Biglittlewhateva:
I get a gps signal and Nav will follow me but, it loses its signal every 2 miles or so. It does recover the signal. I drove 2 hours with it running yesterday and it followed me the whole way. I did, however, have to listen to "gps signal lost" the entire time. :( I did experience one lockup though. It seems if you give the phone too many things to do it locks up.

The text to voice is funny as well. The lady will try to spit out 20 words as your exiting the hi-way. By the time she was done telling me where to go I was already there. :p

Correct me if I am wrong but, the "reboot" feature is for those that used the NAND method only, right?

Same here...

You could use unetbootin and a thumbdrive to boot Ubuntu Netbook Remix:

http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download-netbook

There are instructions on doing this there, but it's really simple. Download unetbootin for Windows and the iso image you want, plug in the thumbdrive. When Windows has recognized it as a drive letter, run unetbootin. Specify the iso file manually (or another from a list and unetbootin will download that one for you) as the one you downloaded and select your thumbdrive letter as the destination. Make sure you safely remove the thumbdrive instead of just yanking it. You should now be able to boot to it. If you can't, check your BIOS settings pertaining to boot devices/order.

Most of the time your settings menus just control basic startup scripts in /etc/init.d . You are correct, startup can vary a lot between distros. If you have one distro that you prefer, I would suggest sticking with it. Gentoo was my main flavor until I got tired of it breaking during updates, then Ubuntu Gnome > Mint Gnome > Ubuntu KDE and now I am starting to switch to Debian stable (only have done this on servers so far). I'm sick of Ubuntu changing so dramatically with each release (which would be fine for LTS's, except the amount of change necessary between LTS's makes the initial LTS release buggy). So far Debian has been solid. Suse was slower than Slowaris, so don't even bring it up to me lol.

One thing you can do to find what is starting a program is something along the lines of grep -R "<program name>" /etc/ . You could search your home directory in such a manner as well.

I'd really like to try this, but I'm getting an error every time I try to install it.

Background: HardSPL'd, 1.71 radio--I'm experienced in flashing/cooking for my phone.

Attempting to NAND install polymod 2.1g on a Tilt, using the 320 Panel 2 .nbh. Downloaded the rom and the nbh twice in case of a download error, but can still reproduce my problem.

The error is "Failed to Extract" followed by something about a Segmentation Fault. It then quits back to the installation screen. If I try to install again, the same error occurs and brings me back to the installation screen. It seems before all this happens, there is a "tar crc error."

Please advise.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Beackman:
Thx the help, cheers. i try when in home.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
I can recommend unetbootin, works really well, although I bought myself a usb dvdrom since then, I used a 4gb flash drive to boot a livecd or two on this laptop.

@Quetzecotyl: This sounds like a corrupt install tar, or an SD card problem, bad crc can only be caused by damaged data on the SD card.

Best advice would be to format the SD card, this is the only solution I can think of at the moment, failing that try another SD card if possible.

After copying remember to use 'safe removal', this helps make sure the cache is flushed and that all data is saved on SD
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
Mr. PaveL has recompiled the .NBHs and zImageeclair, so for those of you who were having trouble booting zImageeclair for BT, please try this new one.

Also BT may be working for Polaris now, those .NBHs have been updated also. Dzo has the Polaris .nbhs for Donut if anyone is looking, and a Vogue Eclair .nbh as well.

To get Eclair Kaiser NBH, Polaris Eclair NBH, or the new zImage, they're in the same spot:

Btw a few things I tested today, wifi+gps, no lockups for me.... wifi+gps+bt... ok it got a little warmer, battery dropped a little faster, still no lockups, maybe I'm just lucky tho :)

Media folder on SD card still works fine, just have to make sure the folder structure is correct, ( /media/audio/alarms /media/audio/ringtones /media/audio/notifications /media/audio/music, /media/resources).

Please help!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
Bah...lol

the added speakerphone feature with some reports of BTaudio working sold me on going NAND...

of course I did this earlier today so I got the older nbh.

so far I am really glad id did this... was a little rocky on first install but second attempt went flawless.

pretty stable so far. but I have only been running about an hour.

wifi, BTaudio, and speakerphone all work.

although I did have a sound lockup from a program i just installed and had to reboot.

would it be a good idea to flash the new nbh?

and is it just flash and go, no need to reinstall?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
Yup, just flash and forget, no reinstall necessary ;)

Just an observation...

does anyone else notice the translucent box attached around the gun on frozen bubble.

I wouldn't be posting about an app in here but it seems that the same version of frozen bubble on the donut build does not have this artifact.

Maybe a glitch in the opengl drivers.

I do also still notice stuttery scrolling and laggy graphics in other programs too. for things that were faster in donut.

I am not complaining.... just pointing out an observation.

....I am so glad I finally went NAND... no more sucky sdcard I/O errors:D

I tried Polymod 2.1g with last androidupdate

BT: No way. It's not starting at all

(I made some soft-reset between trials)

GSM/3G: Working but I have to write manually APN (I'm using H3G Italia). With the previous version, the APN was applied directly by Android.

For yr information, I started with original WM 6.1 rom and NAND system.

Hi,

Many problems with latest kernel versions : no sounds when I phone ... it's very annoying ... The external speaker works but not the other ...

Moreover it is not possible to hear the phone ring, the sound does not work even in the setting parameters: Unable to make the phone ring ...

and from time to time I lose the network: when I'm in the settings, I find all the duplicate network! It's amazing ...

Unable to use as I return to the previous version and never mind the bluetooth (which works by cons very well with file sharing: I tried with a BlackBerry with a photo and it's great ...). WiFi is also Ok.

DZO to thank you (and others) to see what happens with sound.

It's a shame because the version of Poly is really super good to use ...

I use with Nand and 320*480 and lcd.density=140 (change in build.prop).

Cheers.

AT&T Tilt, no Wifi or 3G or Voice Dial

Hello,

I am hoping someone will have a solution as I have seen several posts from people with similar problems and they haven't gotten any responses.

The wifi connects, but does not work. The 3G does not work. I see people talking about manually adding the APN but, the APN shows up when I search for Rogers (Canada) but after selection, it does not work.

Unless I misunderstand, voice dial and search is also supposed to work in the newest build - it doesn't for me. I get a "cannot connect" when I click the voice search button, but this may be because the first thing it does is try and ping the internet (speculation).

If anyone has some tips, it would be appreciated.

DZO's kaisimg-panel2-320-tilt-12-03-10.nbh

Haret locking up

I am having the same problem as a few others that I have read here where Haret just locks up when trying to load. This is with the new zImage-eclair file. If i move back to the older one it loads just fine. Is this zImage-eclair that was posted by Poly, functional for Kaiser? Because that seems to be the common theme here with all the other people who are having the same issue.

Thanks.

not charging..

so..i have a little bit of a problem. my phone ended up dying yesterday and i'm running the NAND version of android (without the bluetooth) and i've tried plugging and unplugging my charger, and even taking the battery out but no matter what i do it won't charge to boot up. i've even tried my usb. any ideas guys? :( thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
from my understanding the charging system is done by hardware not by OS.

so it shouldn't matter winmo vs android.

although I don't know what the nand flashing does to charging I also flashed to nand and have no difference in the way it charges.

my guess is you may have a bad connection in the phones usb port.

try moving the connect while plugged in and see if it helps.

sometimes mine gets picky (I accidentally pressed the stylus in the usb port while trying to reset in the dark)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
Sorry these new zImages aren't working for y'all, I guess HaRET users will have to wait on BT for now... not sure what the difference is yet. I run from NAND so it's hard for me to test zImages.

@manu33xtro: Thanks for testing it out. We're always trying to improve Android, hopefully the next update will work better.

@ramora9595: thanks, good to know!

@Jaguarius: Please reread the first post. Your .nbh should be from sourceforge (the KaiserEclair nbh are actually for Tilt, though they're unmarked), or you should get the BT Updated NBH from my poly @ ponack repo. Voice Dial/Search is clearly listed under Not Working.

@xxaznxx27: NAND Android doesn't often want to charge when powered off. Take out the battery, put it back in. Plug the charger in, the charging light will light up for ~5-10 seconds. While the light is on, turn on the device. Let it power on and charge for a while. If it reports your battery too high, unplug it from the charger and wait for it to notify you of low battery. Then plug it into the charger and let it charge fully. That will recalibrate your battery reading.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] pentagramII:
Ive got problem with NAND version. When I flashed NBH from ponack repo I get on LCD single colorful pixels... It looks like display has 256 colors only -.-'
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Woodham:
I've had that issue as well, or at least I think I have. it seems the phone wont charge when it's off when now I have Android on NAND. (Either that or the orange light just doesn't come on any more).

The solution I have used a couple of times is turn the phone on and then plug the charger/usb in while it's on either the initial bootscreen, or if you can get to it then the screen with the coloued X, and then it seems to boot ok and charge.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] remora9595:
Sometimes this happens if you run the battery all the way down and the usb port on your computer can't supply enough current to charge the phone. Try using the wall charger.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] clmartin22:
I had this happen first time I installed on NAND, if you plug up your charger and turn on right after you plug up hold power and camera you can get back to tri color screen and re-install. The second time it happened I plugged up and turned it back on, I waited to hit the center button and re-enter the android installation. I reinstalled android and everything worked. Something happens when you let run all the way down sometimes and android thinks there isn't enought power to run.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] xxaznxx27:
hm.

so first off thanks for all the replies..but...

i think i might be having two problems, or that last one where i just need to reinstall android (friggin a!). this is because when i wiggle it it charges and has the red light come on and then it goes orange, and then turns off. but i think the problem is that maybe my usb ports messed up and android won't recognize it. :( all i can say is...s*it!

im going to try reinstalling after finals and let you guys know what happens. maybe it'll help someone else too...=T
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
Like I stated: plug it into the charger, when the LED turns orange, power on the device. Then leave it alone to charge. This will fix it.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Rhys'Droid:
Alright, is anyone else seeing this issue?

If I set "battery_capacity" to be anything above zero, the phone thinks that it is 100% charged, even though dmesg shows that it may still be charging at 100-400 mA. For whatever reason, if I set it to (for example) 1000, dmesg shows (still charging @ 100-400 MA) that it has 1600 units of charge and is at 100/100. If i set battery_capacity to be equal to zero, dmesg shows it to have 0 units (obviously) and 1/100. I had my battery almost perfectly calibrated in Donut (at battery_capacity = 1210), but for whatever reason Eclair refuses to hold any calibration whatsoever. (running the latest polymod with DZO's march 17th kernel, but it was doing this with the 2.1g polymod zimage-eclair as well, so I don't think that it is particular to this kernel). Ideas?

note on speakerphone...

I actually used the speakerphone today during a call.

the caller complained about hearing herself.

is anyone else having this?

I know in winmo...and most other speakerphone enabled devices

there is usually (at least in a decent quality unit) some sort of cancellation

programmed into the device to stop the person on the other line from hearing their own voice.

I wasn't sure where to post this but because this feature is new to the polymod build I figured it would go well to start here.

Is there a way to get access to the full marketplace when running this on a Kaiser (like I am)? There are apps that I know exist in the marketplace that do not come up when I do a search in the marketplace on my phone. For example, UrbanSpoon (which according to the web site is only available for Nexus One and Droid) and PhoneFusionVM (com.phonefusion.voicemailplus.android) are not listed but exist--at least on (some) real Android phones.

Also, even when my phone is in silent mode, it produces a loud beep after I hang up a call. Is there a way to disable that?
