Use this.... Run on phone and reboot and this will clear message alert...

Not my work but found in a unknown forum a little time back...
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] malpzs:
I have a Samsung i637 with WM6.1. I did not want upgrade to WM6.5 because my phone is Telcel Mexico, and the update is for AT&T phones, and it changes the mapping of the buttons.

When I make or receive a call, to answer it, when the display light is turned off during the call, the bars colors change.

The top bar is overexposed, while the bar below is seen with a color more strong.

Change the color of the bars in screen design and is still being equal.

Only solves reboot the phone.

I did a hard reset and without loading anything, to receive a call and turn off the light, returned to pass the same.

Help me please!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] malpzs:
Please, help me with this problem.

I need to have a soft reset after of each call.

There are any way to avoid turn off the ligth during a call?

This problem happen only if during a call the backlight is turned off.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] bobby0724:
i see that as unusual problem you should take your phone to warranty asap
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] malpzs:
I have seen another Samsung i637.

A friend have a Samsung i637 and have the same problem.

I think that the problem is for Telcel Mexico version.

I have Windows Mobile 6.1, I think that the upgrade to WM6.5 must be fix this bug.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] daica81:
My problem is rather same with yours. The only difference is that, i got no problem with the display light. After a phone call, the color of top bar and some icons in start menu is faded away, i mean the color becomes lighter and brighter while bottom bar color stays unchanged. I only have this bothering problem after every phone call. A couple of minutes after that, everything is back to normal. That is!

I have been messing with android on my blackstone for a while now and would love to run it on my athena, I have a copy of 1.0 android that boots that was posted ages ago on here, and have tried to no avail to boot a later version either 1.5 or 2.0.1.

I feel that its pretty close but need someone with some linux/android experience as I think the problem lies in the initrd file.

With this is mind if there is enough interested I would like to see how many people would be willing to donate to a developer/developers to get this running on the athena?

I have seen bounty threads before and they seem to work, so post if you interested in donating to the cause.

Would find Android an interesting idea

Hello avergerpenguin,

Would be very interested in seeing this happen, I have been keeping an eye on your work for WM 6.5 but not yet had time to try flashing one of the roms but if your work on there is anything to go by then I'm sure this will be good. Is this going to be full rom for the phone or run as an app over the top of win mobile?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] avengerpenguin:
At present it is not possible to run android without winmo, however mitchy has created a rom for diamond that only loads the drivers etc needed and then autoloads android meaning that you cant get to the winmo underneath.

But firstly I need to compile a working android kernel, see what does and doesnt work and then go from there and possibly create a android only rom, but depends on functionality

Also interested in Android on Athena

Now that it looks like WinMo is a dying OS (no new versions after 6.5), I'm also interested in Android.

The new Windows Phone 7 isn't going to be based on WinMo, so I have nothing to gain by staying with Micro$oft software.

Would love to avoid buying a new phone for as long as possible. The Athena has everything I need in it; all I'd have to do is obtain new programs, which I'll have to do anyway.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] Divine_Madcat:

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] eaglesteve:
Hi Jay,

I went off and bought a Touch HD. Sold it and got a 3G, followed by a 3gs. Hence the absence. But I still have my Athena with an almost dead battary though. Each time I turn it on I'm always attracted by it's hugh and beautiful screen. Somehow I find myself unenthusiatic about using winmo applications again after using iPhone, sorry to say. That's why I hope to see Android on it. It would really Be an awesome device once again I reckon if that's done.

BTW, which is the newest and most popular ROM you guys are using these days? Might try it out for fun before Android is available for my Athena.

Cheers and good to be home.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] responderman:
Me personally, I have been using Lennie's 6.5 rom. I have not liked 6.5 at all before Lennie had his latest V3.00 out, and now I quite like it. I would still say that 6.1 has the edge for ease of use and speed, but Lennie's latest offering is much improved on speed and looks. We dont have many cooks left on here now, so people seem to be trying out some of the old stuff again. We seem to be getting posts from roms way-way back now. I have a G1 myself now, and very good they are to. I do like to keep up with the WM stuff still.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] eaglesteve:
Lennie into ROM cooking now? Nice to hear him rising to the occasion. I still have Michy's ROM on mine.

Back to the topic, is anyone actively working on porting Android 2.1 into Athena yet? I think that would be awesome.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] avengerpenguin:
I am trying my best to port it, but dont get a great deal of time at present, but think I have made some headway recently so hopefully over the course of a week or 2 we may have some progress
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] eaglesteve:
Nice to hear that. Will check in every now and then to see the status. Keep up the good work. This effort will transform Athena in a big way.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] forcemaker:

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] OXiD:
Cheers! I'm willing to donate 350usd atm for a complete linux (android/ubuntu) port with all functionality especially buffering. But not until we get some real progress to make it worthwhile and be maintained. I'm hoping other's will churn in to make a substantial donation pot.

I hate it when someone starts a good thing (like the android proof-of-concept and then it goes barren, unmaintained and sour).

I really do hate all the winmo roms for the athena, all of them ar really slow, especially when in landscape. I'm using ap4.0 atm and in portrait it goes quite fast but as soon as i turn the screen to landscape everything just slows down and movement flickers. Also has an annoying hiss when outputting audio.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] zarathustrax:

Just a quick note to say dont give up hope, I now have a working 2.6.29 linux kernel that boots, havent managed to boot into android as of yet due to some rootfs mounting issues that I am hoping to solve this week as I am off work all week, so hopefully a set closer to a first alpha version, which once I have it booting will be release to a group of testers(TBA)

Apologies all my progress has been much slower than I had hoped due to work and family commitments.

My current state of play is that I need to re-install the android enviroment to linux as I was getting some strange errors that I havent been able get any help with.

I currently have a booting linux kernel, but using an old initrd and eclair android files it will boot until it attempts to mount the android file system on the sd card, I believe this to be down to either my sd card formatting (hopefully) or down to the way the kernel or other files are configured, I will try and test the sd card formatting tomorrow as I should have some time in the afternoon.

I will try and update progress more frequently on here, and also through my twitter account, or if you HAVE to have the most up to date info or wish to try and help etc then feel free to add my MSN and I will be more than happy to answer questions.

Please bear in mind that I have a fairly demanding job, have 2 kids, on top of that am currently working on this android port, some android apps, plus messing around with my other 2 phones and my xbox MW2 addiction lol, so try and cut me some slack. Believe me I want this android port as much as the rest of you but had never even touched linux prior to starting this, so progress is slow as I am trying to learn at the same time with very little help.

Thanks

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] PoXFreak:
Umm...!!!

Did someone not see this things capabilities?

Am I wrong, or would the Intel XScale PXA270 @ 625MHz not be enough to run Honeycomb?

I figure with the 7 or so gigabyte hard drive on these and 128/256 ram/rom configuration, maybe a slightly stripped version could be used?

May be pi**ing in the wind here, but could it be done?

Hi,

I realise this is rather a dead thread but does anyone have a link to the patch set of GIT tree that the 2.6.29 kernel mentioned in the quoted post was built from?

Very interested in taking a look to see if I can get an OpenEmbedded/Angstrom setup going on the device. Obviously a working kernel is quite key to that ;).
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] avengerpenguin:
I would have to have a look back through my old laptop where I compiled that kernel from.

The problem is that it wasnt just built through one git tree from memory, I had a to it was a combination of files etc that I had on my dev machine but were never sync'd with a git tree.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] djwillis:
Hiya,

Thanks for that, I am not worried if it is a monster patch/hack set, I am pretty fluent building up and hacking about Linux kernels (I do a lot of ARM embedded Linux work). It's just that I hate reinventing the wheel so if someone has done all the hard work it seems wrong to just leave it to rot.

Of course there is every likelihood that I wont get time to do anything, it's just an idea at the back of my mind, so don't put yourself out dinging around.

Thoughts: Is Athena worth the donation money? And what about environment *eeek* ;)

I wish I "could" donate... I'd love to see the Ameo being revived with a "more modern" operating system, being able to run all the apps that make Android great.

But to be honest, I cannot put much money into a device (likely!) being superseded by tablet style devices for 100 to 150 €.

Still, if there is progress made into a "advanced user without Kernel programming skills" (and no intentions to get any) running Android on Athena, I will consider donation.

Actually, it is some perverted way, today: there are many of us owning this hardware, but lacking the software. In a time where people are (or should be) worried about the overall-environment and future of Earth. We could "recycle" these devices for usage for another 2 or 3 years (just guessing ;-) ) without having to create "new electronic waist".

By the way: Procuding a Personal Computer, there is as much energy used as in building a car. Yet, a car might be used much more than 10 years, but who would run a PC from 2001 today? Many devices are thrown away, and I'm talking about huge companies discarding their office class devices every 2-3 years. Not state-of-the-art gaming machines and high-performance-computing

Ok, that was some way from Android to other stuff, and it was just some thoughts I had about reviving the Athena device. So, I am watching this and the "neighboring" threads closely, and will be in the future. If there is advancement, I cannot wait to recharge my Ameo's battery!

Back in 2008 there was a android on the athena look at youtube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtlcCQSRmiA

I bought the athena only for one reason, video calling over wifi, because the device has two camera's, till now it doesn't work, skype videocalling on a windows 6.1 or 6.5 will not work.:mad:

The athena is a great device it is not so big as the ipad or galaxy tab, and it is bigger than most devices.

Love to see android on this device, could anyone help us??

What i understand is that there are driver problems for this device.

I also had tried the mistadman link and files above.

he and many others gave it a try and i must say they did a good job sofar.

What i have seen (i am a user)

A booting device

a nice picture with several icons

a dialer

contacts

devtools

working rotate view (slow but working)

maps

browser

The touchscreen is working already, de dialer is working and some of the buttons are working.

It is nice to see something else on my Athena, hope someone else could make a nice froyo or gingerbread for it.

Here on XDA they have working skype versions already for froyo and gingerbread, i tested it and it worked on my now, bricked HTC magic froyo.:mad:

not everything works of course (work in progress)

I know this probably seems like a stupid question, but where's the enter button?

When typing in certain applications like sms for instance, the "enter button" is replaced with the "smiley button".

I always separate my texts with new lines but I can't seem to find the button. :confused:
[Nexus One General] ojiikun:
I'm also curious about this. I'd like to find a way to make the keyboard never display the smiley button, and always display the enter button. I'd also like to find a way to make it always display a row of number keys at the top, even if it means making the letter keys smaller . . .

Yeah I'd like to get rid of the google voice button for the comma. I think google forgot we don't have an alternative hardware keyboard when they made the keyboard =P

There are some major flaws with such common features, like no battery percentage indicator. iPhone 1, N1 nill, i'm afraid; and I hate the iPhone with a passion. (slow, no network reception, overly-simplified)

hmm, perhaps there are other keyboard alternatives, but I think most if not all do not yet support the the N1 resolution...
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
its possible to get rid of. just go into keyboard settings.
