So I will start from polyrhythmic's thread about porting Eclair Hero 2.1 to Kaiser.

A package with all files is available now. Thanks herpez

So Let's have Android 2.1 on Blackstone (HTC HD) Now.

I "Guess" this build is generic, Not sure which devices can it be run on.

babijoee, if it's generic, then "One For All, All For One". :)

I could successfully installed Android Flan 2.1 with SENSE UI on my Blackstone, and here are my results:

Working:

-Radio Fully Works.

-SMS Fully Works.

-Vibration.

-USB Charging and Debugging.

-Touch screen.

-Keyboard.

-Microphone.

-Front Speaker.

Not Working

-Wifi

-GPRS

-GPS

-Bluetooth

-External Speaker

-HTC Widgets. (Thinking of getting rid of them)

-Other things (Will be determined during the process of testing)

Issues:

-Very slow when booting first time. (Reason is Rosie UI Launcher, I removed it locally and increased Boot speed as well as the whole device itself clearly)

-If you feel that the device is freezed, no make sure cuz it's not. It's just doing SO MANY processes.

-This build needs patience, so if you are not patient please save your device from your anger and don't test it.

Download: (So all credits goes to polyrhythmic now, and we will use his files to make Android 2.1 work perfectly on Blackstone).

http://www.4shared.com/file/185118411/18defbb0/filessense.html

Thanks herpez for upload. herpez Tested it and it's working.

Installation:

1- Download the Package and exctract it to your computer.

2- IMPORTANT - Download the zip file that is attached with this post, extract it and copy ALL the files in it to conf folder in the build.

3- Copy the files to your SD-Card. (MUST use clean one)

4- So your SD card will look like this:

SD Card Root

/conf/*ALL CONF FILES IN THE ATTACHED ZIP

Haret.exe

initrd.gz

zImage

rootfs.img

system.sqsh

startup.txt

5- Run Haret.

6- Post your feedback !Important!

IF you're using a swap partition on your SD card DOWNLOAD THIS and rename it to eclairhero.user.conf

Note: This build is useless without creating a swap file, the .conf file will create a swap file, otherwise use a swap partition to store data in.

Screenshots and FAQ are to come.

Cheers, ;)

Brilliant! But so poor that the essential HTC widget of Sense cannot run and it was unable to connect to the internet =(
[Touch HD Android Development] Bl@ck:
So this is real duh, btw Android 2.1 is called Flan not Eclair.

i'd like to remind that this test builds are unstable, test at your risk and make a backup, i lost all data on my SD card after testing the first Eclair build (android 2.0.1).
[Touch HD Android Development] shadowline:
509 Bandwidth Limit Exceeded on link "http://www.doublerebel.com/xda/eclairhero.user.conf"

I know that It is not your link, but just letting you know. Judging by the message I think it will clear up after the new year.

Good luck on the Blackstone port, your Topaz brothers are watching. ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:
Does anyone knows if its possible to use files from both 2.1 and 2.0? That way it would be easier to port!
[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:
We could try to extract all the files and then compare it with the 2.0 release to see what were the changes
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
Really appreciate your efforts, people behind this project are true dreamers, the day is not very far when we all see a fully developed OS is ready to use.

Best of Luck for all the efforts.
[Touch HD Android Development] khanem:

[Touch HD Android Development] Klael:
Please can anybody give a mirror for this file?
[Touch HD Android Development] JJura:
Please reupload
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
thanks so much bro. I will put all the files in a zip file, upload it and post it with Flan name.

Yes, it's unstable. We will work on this here to make it work.
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
Uploading a full package. ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:

A Package with ALL files is being uploaded NOW.
[Touch HD Android Development] Zailynne:
And where exactly do I download the package? :P

EDIT:

Nvm... read too fast, thought that you had already uploaded it... xD
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
Sorry guys uploading takes time.

eclairhero.conf is attached in the first post now.
[Touch HD Android Development] stoolzo:
rom?

Hi, I have seen lots of android projects knocking around now, how far are we from and actual working rom so winmo can be ditched altogether?, clearly the rom would have to be reflashable bk to winmo though.
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
Can you post your feedback please? :)
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
We could have stable Eclair 2.0.1 shortly. Keep checking Eclair's post.

This Flan build is unstable still.
[Touch HD Android Development] Zailynne:
Ehh, should it come up some kind of loading screen like the previous android versions when you start the haret?

Because the screen only gets stuck on the file explorer...
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
are you using the zImage from this thread?
[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:
Guys, i need really MUCH this file:

eclairhero-swap_partition.user.conf

im uploading the package and i need just this.

Please send me!!!

Thanks
[Touch HD Android Development] Zailynne:

[Touch HD Android Development] frankzan:
I'm using the latest zImage from http://glemsom.anapnea.net/android/htc-msm-android/ and it work's fine. The eclairhero.user.conf can be found on the first post under attachments. It's zipped.
[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:
If people need files, i just dont have 1, eclairhero-swap_partition.user.conf

ALL the others are in this pack http://www.4shared.com/file/184913872/43b2fa30/filessense.html

Do you have eclairhero.user.conf file ?

Ok, thanks. Do you have eclairhero.user.conf file?
[Touch HD Android Development] stoolzo:
Hi, I am talking about a ROM not a haret based overlay using Sd card.
[Touch HD Android Development] ASK768:
once its stable through haret, people will work on making a ROM. this has been done on the vogue (i think) so it is possible. its impossible to give an eta or anything, but if you check htclinux on irc it would give you more up to date updates on the current situtaion.

[Touch HD Android Development] LikeM8:
booting process ios very very very long???

I try the last zImag...the booting process ios very very very long!!! And after booting, I have a black screen...What is the problem???
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
Hello,

What's your feedback with latest glemson zImage please? :)
[Touch HD Android Development] rhussa_1:
I have only been able to boot properly and use the build v ....2B now after 3 days almost with this latest image posted at glemson (zImage-modules-20091230_220950).

This image seems to work much better in all aspects.

1. WIFI works - no freezes but cannot reconnect without reboot.

2. Sound, marketplace, charging etc works.

3. Apps crash management is very good i.e. android seems to come back fairly quickly.

4. Can play video files with sound (Youtube did not work though).

Graphics still bit slow, scrolling is getting better, buttons (especially 'End' is buggy, the screen behaves better now).

Thanks for good efforts.
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
May I ask, which version of Android are you using? Eclair 2.0.1 OR Flan 2.1 ?
[Touch HD Android Development] rhussa_1:
Ooops! and sorry!

That was meant for your other thread i.e. Eclair 2.0.1.

BTW I tried to download your package for Flan from 1st post but link is broken.

How can I run Flan? I am happy to test but don't know ingredients of Flan clearly.
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaa:
The whole package is available for download now.

Thanks herpez.
[Touch HD Android Development] rhussa_1:
The link on 1st page is still broken. May be still uploading...
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:

[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:

However it misses 1 and only 1 file:

Booting problem.

With these new packages on fresh formated sd card wont boot.
[Touch HD Android Development] Heefy:
i have to agree. I have been trying for hours now and nothing works. The running Harets dialogue box comes up then part of the screen goes black and then it all stops.

Your instructions need updating or are incorrect on the front page. Do we need to rename any of the files in the new, latest all in one download? Very confusing.
[Touch HD Android Development] LikeM8:
Booting problem fixed now?

Does the booting problem fixed now?
[Touch HD Android Development] eddaredevil:
No, It wont boot. I just tried to boot after rename Rootsfs and zImage.
[Touch HD Android Development] LikeM8:

Booting problem is fixed by remove the zImage and replace it b y the new on this page:

;););)
[Touch HD Android Development] leonore:
Hi LikeM8

thanks

, now it boots up:D

leonore
[Touch HD Android Development] Heefy:
Thanks for the update:

so we need to use the above zImage file after renaming it to simply zImage.

Add the 'modules-2.6.27-00682-g8fdad0a.tar' file.

Rename the rootfs-15-12-09 to rootfs.img

If it helps with all the constant updates and having to delete previous instalations, I have the whole lot inside a folder called 'android' on the root of my SD card. that way you can delete the folder contents and be sure of a clean install. Hopefully it will work for you and you dont need to keep formatting your SD card.

Thanks again
[Touch HD Android Development] Heefy:
Mine now boots and starts the wizard where you can set up your language and email acount then boots again in a continual loop.

Anyone else have more success?

each time i get a bit further through the wizard. fingers crossed.....and i'm in!

It takes for ever to boot, but good work.
[Touch HD Android Development] Zailynne:
For me it gets stuck at the HTC Hero logo... Is it that which takes for ever? And in that case, how long is for ever...? :P

Because i had it on in like 20 min or so, if not more, and it didn't start... :P
[Touch HD Android Development] ASK768:
the link to the package doesnt work
[Touch HD Android Development] Zailynne:
Okay, I got it working. I don't know why, but it just did... :P

Good things:

- It never froze.

That was pretty much it... xD

Issues:

- The wifi didn't work. (I know it's a known issue)

- It was really slow, and had to force close or wait all the time.

- Each time I went back to the home page, it had to kind of restart the whole thing, which required loading all the time.

- The touch was pretty slow and misscalculating all the time.

- The keyboard was very small.

- And something funny I saw was that in the home page, when you switched page to the right, the side scroll kind of went into the mini menu that's at the homepage. (But i don't know if you can do anything about that... :P)
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:

[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:

if so upload it to me please.

How is it in speed? Smooth? does it stops process often?
[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:
Please, tell me ALL the files you are using.

Im a bit lost in make this work :(

Thanks!!!
[Touch HD Android Development] leonore:
@herpez

i only put a single conf (eclairhero user.conf)in the root of sd-not the whole packet with all conf.files

its runs slow and the prozess stops often-but very nice playing for me.

very good work from the Devs:)
[Touch HD Android Development] leonore:
@herpez

iuse the same files as in the first post of this thread.

Then i change the zImages with the new built id ...133356 and add the modules tar.gz from the downloaded packages.

I only use a single conf file

Greetings
[Touch HD Android Development] herpez:
I made it.

Its so wonderful!!!

Thanks a lot

To ALL USERS:

get the pack, copy the pack to sd card root. Do not copy the eclairhero.user.zip. Extract it in your pc and u will have:

eclairhero.user.conf.

Copy that file to root.

Then, run hartet and have MUCH PATIENT!!!

[Touch HD Android Development] maniatico:
hi is missing the zImage
[Touch HD Android Development] Heefy:
i don't think the download is ready yet.

Can you let us know when it is ready please.

cheers
[Touch HD Android Development] Heefy:
I am using the files from the first page, plus the latest working blac100 zImage.

It would appear that the new version is up. The date on the download still appears to be the original but I bow have the following observations:

Quicker boot time.

No looping/restarting during boot and setup wizard.

I have widgets both Android and HTC. The flip clock and weather are poorly aligned and all squashed up and off center. Temperature is displayed, along with weather graphic.

Data connection works automatically without me setting it up. Connected to the internet no problem on edge.

Cool green browser graphics in the address bar (although not correctly aligned)

Power button works as a home button.

No camera.

New HTC calendar (not full screen but very nice)

Phone canvas is good looking but again appears the wrong size, with overlapping buttons which are way too slow to respond. Phone call worked but didn't test speach at this time in the morning.

No Wifi, unable to start.

HTC music player with cover art, but no sound. You can scroll through the tracks left and right like in Sense 2.5

Youtube works no sound.

Screen calibration still doesnt work.

Maps works as does Latitude but not with gps.

Tiny crap keyboard positioned off to the left of the screen. Maybe it can be changed in settings.

USB charges the phone.

The initial wallpaper changes size and is reduced so does not fit the screen. I will see if i can change it.

No constant crashes and restarts of Sense.

more obs to follow, good work.
[Touch HD Android Development] tids2k:
awesome good luck with the other stuff.
[Touch HD Android Development] Abandoned-Trolley:
Wow this looks VERY promising, although I still feel it's flogging a dead horse and will always be missing vital things and not totally working.

Feedback

My feedback after testing it for a day

Pro

"""""""

- Device stays cool as ice. No recognizeable warmup, its compareable to WM, never had this with any android release

- Good battery life (it drains arround 3-5% in 30min)

- Very responsive and fluent scrolling, no lagging. From the feeling the phone reacts and works alot better than 1.6 or 2.0.1

Con

""""""

- Processes hang and crash often

- HTC Sense crashes from time to time

- First Startup takes quite some time and the wizzard at the beginning is a bit buggy

I see a big future in this release lets hope there will be a more stable version soon
[Touch HD Android Development] Blessed HD:
I had the same problem, & I think the SD card has alot to do with it...

I'm using the 8GB Transcend class 2 card that came with the device.. Can't flash ROMs through it either :(
[Touch HD Android Development] s0me 1 love HTC:
I hope that there is a solution for this issue in the upcoming updates about booting up android in a diffrent way.

waiting...

I am loving this but I can only get Android to boot once or twice before I have to delete all the files and start again. After the second boot it just fails to start.

Good work. Looking forward to whatcomes in the future.

Are the kernel zImages the same as for the 2.0.1 Eclair porting project?
[Touch HD Android Development] SSJVegetto:
I tested it yesterday and it seems to work however the screen is not always filled, Sense keeps crashing.
[Touch HD Android Development] 7Bit:
I dont get it to work :(

After renaming files accordingly and using latest autobuild kernel it boots, but there are appearing a lot of "Process terminated" messages after HTC splash screen...

Really hope that you guys get it to work! I'll test the next build as soon its out.
[Touch HD Android Development] MrryMsscre:
This doesnt work on the HTC Touch Pro, right?

if so, how? iv copied everything to the root of my SD. when i run the Haret my phone freezes. any ideas?

cheers
[Touch HD Android Development] powergate:
Do everything what they say on post1 (also rename the files)

To start with haret edit your startup.txt

This is mine (i used the andorid 2.01 eclair's one)

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

set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 1910

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "mddi.width=480 mddi.height=640 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"

boot

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

Then it will boot, pretty fast to :) At this moment i see the htc logo with the android logo. Will report later one how it performs.

I am running RAPH100 for the info.
[Touch HD Android Development] powergate:
- I booted up but when i get to the setup wizzard of htc it asks "select you carrier" i can't choose my carrier :( when i just say next it reboots android. and starts the wizzard again.

- Reset did the trick, now entering android 2.1, it is extreme slow but it started on my TP RAPH100
[Touch HD Android Development] MrryMsscre:
uhm, 1 thing.. where do i get the conf map.. do i just create one?

it keeps freezing at "booting Linux" when i run HARET
[Touch HD Android Development] powergate:
download the attachment on the fiurst post and unzip it, put all those files in a new directory "conf" (just create one)
[Touch HD Android Development] MrryMsscre:
still cant get passed "HaRET: Booting Linux" this is what i did.

1. plugged in my phone to my PC, formated my SD card ( as it sas on the first page i need a clean one )

2. downloaded filessense.rar, extraced everything to my SD card (eclairhero.user.zip, initrd.gz, Eclair-ready__rootfs.img, haret.exe, STARTUP.TXT, system.sqsh, zImage-15-12-09 )

3. renamed Eclair-ready__rootfs.img to just rootfs.img and renamed zImage-15-12-09 to just zImage

4. created a map on the sd carded "conf"

5. downloaded conf.zip, extracted everything to SD Card/conf

6 unplugged the phone from my pc, ran HARET from my phone, i get "HaRET: Booting Linux" the blue little loading meter gets full...... nothing, no black screen, no linux coding.. nothing. im stuck.. did i do something wrong?

cheers
[Touch HD Android Development] powergate:
Wich phone do you have? i think your startup.txt needs to be edited.
