Not really sure how to load with the NoMoRootfs method...even looking at the other thread that gives instructions on how to do so. Not 100% sure what goes where and flashing that is required...does this blow away winmo? If it does I am not sure I want to flash.

I have been running builds using Haret. I have tried one other 1.6 build and it did not work there either.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Good question. Does wifi work in

any

donut norootfs build? If so you might be able to use that one instead.

I did find another issue in my uploaded file based on that post from enatefox that explains why data wasn't working, the path to the ril lib was incorrect. I swear this has got to be a simple fix.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
is there an htc ezinput sip included in this build?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I edited the init.donut.kaiser.rc just like I did for the vogue, changing the radio path to point to /system/lib instead of /system/donut/...

I also added the BlueTooth config. When users tested this it didn't work. Infact it made the rom unbootable.

Is there anyone on the Kaiser/Polaris side that has got Wifi working with NoMoRootFS yet?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] DmK75:
I find many files there:

Hey myn,

The system.sqsh you posted yesterday seems to be messed up. It seems to have a broken ringtone (Growl.ogg), it's slow and it has no lock screen for some reason...

Just thought I'd let you know.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cyburke:
can someone confirm/deny for me....

does using NoMoRootFS install for this build wipe WinMo from your device? how is it different than classic SQSH method?

i am confused since it seems both use Haret.exe to launch..........

thank you!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
so do the themed builds not get eclair contacts? I just installed enoch and noticed that.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kulen:
As I understood it (because I was unable to instal NoMoRootFS) it's basically the same considering WM. In both cases after you reboot device you go back to WM.

The diference is that in NoMoRootFS you do not need all the files needed with SQSH method but you define things through menu when installing. And you can apply system updates through that same menu later.

so basically NoMoRootFS is more automated simpler solution.

Somebody please be free to correct me if I'm wrong

hi

i succeed installing this donut using nomoroots and the last basefiles from http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/ on my polaris 100

it install itself via the menu (installation option are useless for me) in andboot directory (by default)

now i want to install the update for wifi and a 1 of the 2 marvelous theme you provided us

so i put this 2 .tar in my andboot directory but when i run haret and hold the "camera" button, i can't see nomoroots menu anymore :(

did i miss something

Thank you by advance for this marvelous work
[Touch CDMA Android Development] typolad:
You can wipe WinMo if you want, but it's not a must. I ran it off SD for a little. I got it into NAND though, and am now never going back.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
At least for now :(.

If you want, just remove Phone.apk and Contacts.apk from the themes tar file and you will retain the original eclair Phone and Contacts.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:

I haven't gotten my wired headset to function fully on any haret, NAND, or NoMoRootfs build that I have tried.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Sounds like we need to talk to DZO, Vilord and MSMission.

Perhaps a change to the kernal will allow for this functionality. I know they are working on the audio stuff now so perhaps this is part of their scope.

So. Now I have Gotten squashfs-tools to work, and Now I have a system.sqsh with Wi-Fi that hopefully works for my Kaiser :D

Now I have another problem..... Everything Goes fine intil the android loading thing pops up, then it keeps on going and then the android thing just dissapears. Any Ideas?? I really need to get my wi-fi working!

EDIT: Lol. It was me all along. I took a system.sqsh that I knew that worked, and unsquashed the resquashed it (Not touching any files), Then it also stopped working. So I guess I'm doing something incorrect..Heres what i did.

unsquashfs system.sqsh
then I did
mksquashfs squashfs-root system.sqsh

In terminal on Ubuntu
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Search the forum, I think there's a particular version of squash tools that works and one that doesn't. Maybe try 3.4 instead of 4? Check it out.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Yaantra:
@Myn, Is it possible for you to replace the current e-mail and contact apk's with that of the eclair e-mail and contact apk's? If so would you consider incorporating these in your next build (+ SQSH). Eclair e-mail and contacts have built in exchange server support and are very useful to people who use their phones for work. Also contacts get automatically updated via the exchange sync in here. The work e-mail you provided does not sync contacts and is not as useful. Not complaining by any means ;) Just requesting!

Thanks

Yaantra
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Make sure you are running version 3.3 of squashfs.

Than do this from the root where the /system exists:

genext2fs -d ./system -b 160000 -a system.ext2
mkdir tmp
cd tmp
mkdir system-ext2-mnt
cd ..
mount -o loop system.ext2 tmp/system-ext2-mnt
mksquashfs tmp/system-ext2-mnt/ system.sqsh

If you need any help let me know.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I believe the existing contacts is from eclair. The Email is from donut. So in essence if I was to port over the Email from Eclair the Mail.apk (Work Email) that I have included as an optional download is obsolete?

The opengl appears to be very slow when I run Neocore using the latest basefiles.zip 2/4/2010 http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/ . Anyone else experienced the same?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
this may have been answered already but my homescreen icons keep changing to a smaller size. a reboot fixes it for a while. anyone? im using 120 lcd density 240 x 320
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Carrick1973:
I'm getting 20 - 21 FPS, so it works OK for me. Is this a typical framerate for most of the android builds on these phones? No slowdowns when running robo-defense, so it seems OK. I guess no Crysis on these vogues, though, huh?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
running slow for me too but ive never ran it with anything else. it may because its a benchmark. meant to push the limits

4fps with sound 10fps without sound
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Carrick1973:
Myn's default value in the build.prop file is ro.sf.lcd_density = 110, so you might need to change it to 120. Not sure why the icons would change size, however while using it though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] ckl_88:
I'm a complete noob to Android and I just tried this. Thanks very much for your hard work Myn, it's running pretty amazing on my touch vogue.

Just a couple of thoughts on the install process:

When I pressed the volumn up to get to the nomorootfs menu and selected install, I had no idea what it was doing... whether it was overwriting my ROM or overwriting the SD card contents... it just said formatting which was scary. Since this was my first setup, I had no idea what was going on and how long it would take. Luckily, I'm patient LOL.

After playing around with Android for a while, I get can into the Market but it won't download anything. It just saying Starting Download... and sits there forever. I'm with Bell Mobility if that helps.

Oh, the other thing is that the button functions are kind of weird since I'm coming from the Windows Mobile world. I expected the power button to put the device to sleep but that has been mapped to the end button in Android. Is there a way to remap these keys?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bchi49:
I switched to use the basefiles.zip from the first page, I get 28 fps and a lot faster loading of Neocore. Thanks. I was using the latest basefile.zip 2/4/2010 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/ which is slow for some reason.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bchi49:
try the basefile.zip from the first page. I'm using 3 partitioned SD card, FAT, EXT2, and EXT2.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] detour522:
btw, myn's default build uses 110 for the LCD density but the problem you're describing happened to me a couple of times as well. i can't seem to duplicate it intentionally and rebooting fixes the problem so i haven't said anything but a solution for this problem will be nice... rebooting to WM then to android does take some time... :p
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Thanks for the kind regards.

I completely agree with the NoMoRootFs install process. To new users this is quite daunting to say the least. Especially the "formating..." verbiage that appears. The first time I thought my entire SDCard was getting wiped! I know Vilord is in the process of changing the verbiage around making it more intuitive. Hang in there.

There is a confirmed outage on the Market. I as well as many others are experiencing the same issue you are with the market. Give it some time. Hopefully it will be back up soon.

Regarding the button functions. Give it some time. Soon you'll be hitting the power button within winmo thinking the menu will pop up and the camera button going back. Seriously, give it a try. It's a very efficient way of navigating through android and mimics the real mccoys very well. I find myself quite frequently hitting the wrong buttons in winmo now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I've experienced the smaller icons once, rebooted and it never came back. I thought it was a fluke but after hearing this It sounds like this is happening to more than just me.

Do you recall what icons got smaller? And has it happened more than once for you guys?

Thanks for your help.

PS. I have a strong feeling its the Phone and Contacts icons on the home screen. An artifact of the eclair port perhaps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] detour522:
the dialer, contacts and the browser icons on the home screen got smaller both times
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
The small icon thing has happened to me on this build but many others as well. It happens specifically on 113 (or maybe 110 too) I believe. It has never happened to me on 120. It seems to be random... but it's definitely not tied to any one particular build
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Great feedback guys.

The first time I experienced it was with NoMoRootFS.

Has anyone had this happen before running NoMoRootFS?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dyetheskin:
what's the proper install process for nand for this? i got the nbh for 480 with panel 2,placed the tar file in andboot folder on sd card(not new tar with newer themes),flashed it,just code,tried camera button for my kaiser to bring up menu but no luck and just stays frozen on coding
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
I had.it with dialer, contacts, browser, alarm clock, and for some reason weatherbug..? I thought it was just default apps but I guess not
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I just downloaded the sqsh and tested it again. Seems fine for me. Growl.ogg sounds correct and there is a lockscreen.

Do you mind redownloading again?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Yaantra:
Yes, i believe so. The e-mail apk in eclair is superior to the earlier version. It supports mail and contact sync. Soon we shall see google releasing full exchange support. So, if possible and not too much trouble, it would be really nice to have the eclair mail.apk ported to you build.

I think this is the only thing making it a little short of a stand-alone rom for the remainder of your followers.

Again, this is only a request. Other than that, thanks for a wonderful android experience.

Yaantra
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Let me see what I can do. This sounds quite interesting. Do you have an Exchange account we can test with?

And just to confirm (this gets confusing because Google chooses to have multiple apks)

Current APK's in Donut

Mail.apk = "Work Email" application for Exchange

Email.apk = "Email" application (client for pop3/imap/smtp )

Gmail.apk = "Gmail" client app for gmail

You want me to port Mail.apk from eclair or Email.apk?

Thanks again.

Does anyone know why google sky map doesn't work? It loads up and goes threw the beginning animation then just goes to a blank screen. Maybe cause the camcorder doesn't work?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:
Sorry. I was going to edit this post but you hadn't responded so I figured I'd just forget about it.

Anyway, what actually caused the problem is that I was attempting to use a data.img from your build (with 3 partition method) for a new install. Apparentley that caused those strange problems regardless of which system.sqsh I'm using. I don't know why that is.

Growl.ogg was broken when I unzipped it though...I thought it was broken after re-downloading it, but maybe I never did that. Not sure.

By the way myn, remember how I was trying to run this using NoMoRootFS on Kaiser using that update, and how the resolution looked way too small with 240x320x110? Well, it looks just the way it should with 320x480x160. Not sure if that matters, but just thought I'd let you know.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Pandemic187:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I also wrote a fake sensors lib a while back that doesn't seem to be in this build, it's attached to this post. Unzip it, put it in /system/lib/hw and get rid of all the other sensors.xxx.so files.

This uses the touchscreen so you can play armadillo roll and other games that need the sensors.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] MrPaveL:

will it also work on Kaisers? Or it's specificaly written for Vogue?

despite of broken wifi, your rom with buff theme is awesome

I'm not fan of lcddensity 110 and i can't speak yet about battery life, witch was the main issue in your previous rom

i 've to test gps too

In all the case, your work is amazing and i consider to donate :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Yaantra:
@Myn,

Yes i do have an exchange account that i can test. Will be more than happy to do that for the community!

As for your second question, there are only 2 e-mail programs in eclair one for the gamil and the other is the standard e-mail program that offers 3 options, POP3, IMAP and Exchange (instead of the 2 in donut, POP3 and IMAP). Hope this answers your question.

Also, please note that if you do decide to update your build, please update the SQSH file as well. I have still not been able to use the nomorootfs with your build (yesterday it was booting for over 1 hour when i finally gave up). For me using vilord's new basefiles i can only get the Eclair 2.1 to work with the nomorootfs to boot.

Anyway, as long as the SQSH works, i am happy ;)

So, let me know if you choose to update!

Thanks for your efforts (BTW i really like your today's theme!)

Slow slide

Hey still, an awesome build. The only really big problem I am having is the slow response and slow slide when going through my contacts. I feel like I am pressing really hard and sliding up to get it to move anywhere but it doesnt respond the first time, and therefore I end up clicking on a contact that I don't want and then it is slow to go back to it.
