kewl

whoaa... :eek:

thanks!! coolest thing on earth..having both OS in one phone means..double the apps! :)

Can't wait till the XDandroid gotta be perfect soon..u guys rocks.

I like it this way rather than it is built in the ROM.. hoping when the developers found out ways to include it in the ROM, they also give this kind of option to chose from!

:)

Thank u so much.

problems~

i have problem, my HD keep on freezing. Obviously it will freeze when im playing around with the phone while charging. The phone will also freeze sometimes while not charging as well. Just start using it since yesterday but i already boot up more than 30 times. :( :(
[Touch HD Android Development] Afinkawan:
Yeah. Getting the same thing on my Touch HD.
[Touch HD Android Development] niemayd:
Hi everybody,

i tried to start the current image (rel 2.4) in my HTC TOUCH HD, but currently i'm watching to animation with different colors flowing around for about an hour... I've read the you have to wait a little bit longer when starting Android for the first time, but... yeah -.-

Does anybody has a similar problem? Or is this okay? I installed it using the cab file.

Thanks!
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Too long... 5 mins max really.

Are you sure you're using a CLEAN SD Card?

There's definitely something wrong there.

Did you install from Cab or Zip? if Zip did you run the auto-install.exe before your ran Haret (only have to do this once)?
[Touch HD Android Development] Afinkawan:
I've had that a couple of times. The first boot was pretty long but it got me in and android was working, until it froze. The last time I got stuck on that same animation, which was still going when I came back from a meeting just now.
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Posting twice won't help you.

Try turning off 'Auto backlight' settings in WinMo
[Touch HD Android Development] Afinkawan:
I don't know if having a custom ROM might be what's causing it to freeze on Android?

for what it's worth I have:

ROM version kwbr topix 3.3 WWE

Radio version 1.09.25.14

WinMo 6.5 Prof. CE OS 5.2.21887 (build 21887.5.0.86)

I should point out that I am a complete noob with phone hacking so any replies about why Android keeps freezing may be part-gibberish to me :)
[Touch HD Android Development] xdabas:
Hey i've had the same problem a few days ago...my problem was that i still had the "AndroidApps" folder from a former installation on my SD card. So maybe you try deleting it and than do a fresh install. That solved my problem.

Hope that can help you!

Bas
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Delete evrythg and Format is the safest way. Though it happens not to install correctly even by being "safeminded" :D

I'm running Topix 3.6 and Android need 3 or 4 tries before fully flawlessy working. My trick is to lauch the building when the HD is charging, with that, it builds correctly from the first time, every time. Just my 2cents

8 gb sd card support
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
I cannot tell you how many times I say "any trouble... CLEAN SD card". But still, folks don't listen!

I'm now working in some changes to the system.sqsh (my first venture into this area)... I really don't like bundled apps (I can see the logic of having them) but I prefer the end user to choose their own where possible. Ideally I'd like to move apps out of the squash, and into 'AndroidApps' folder where end users can decide / edit for themselves.... however I've had lots of trouble with this technique. XDAndroid seems to generate FC's all the time when this technique is used.... weird.

I do see the simplicity of a new install already having Google Maps, Astro File Manager etc, but they go out of date so quickly I wonder if it's really worth it.

Watch this space!
[Touch HD Android Development] k-zik:
try the XDANDROID on a ext2 partition it works very well,with the zimage and the rootfs from 2.4 build.

you have to create 2 partitions on your sd card, 500mo for the ext2 one, & the rest goes for fat32.

The package can be found here with the startup file.
[Touch HD Android Development] Sammysdad:
I have a feeling that many users resistance to "delete the data.img and try again" or "Start with a clean SD card" comes from not wanting to "start all over."

If what you've described here could be done with the ability to have the end user add their own apps to the mix in a reusable way at install of a new build it would save the hassle of reinstalling apps repeatedly. I realize there are "apps for this", but with a large number of apps, some from the market, some from other sources, a system as you've described with this feature would be great. This

might

also slow down the repeated user questions. Thanx for your efforts!!
[Touch HD Android Development] Dynamic_d:
ok, so I reinstalled clean after formatting. Used the cab version.

WHen I sync to google and I check my settings it says I have synced to google

and all emails and contacts should be in. When I go to contacts its empty. However on the call logs I can see the contacts I called. With name and all.

But thats ONLY in contact history, In contacts tab its empty. Also NO GOOGLE mail. IT wont show them. Does not even say how many are in.

Thats why I imported contacts with sprite migrate and same result. COntacts dont show even after clean install. ONLY in call history they show .

CAn you please help?? Would love to have my contacts back.

CHeers
[Touch HD Android Development] bertrandno7:
there an app on the marketplace u can dl so that the contacts will say. search sim and look for it i dun remember the name
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Thanks for that! I had no idea that even existed.... you know, with being here every day for two years, making some releases of my own and having a thread with a quarter of a million views on XDAndroid.

Only erm... you need to create an ext2 partition and how many typical users can do that? How many are going to be running ubuntu, or know what a VM is?

And there is no evidence at all for any performance improvement from the ext2 partition, since the bottle neck is the SDCard itself and the squashfs is compressed, it MAY be faster to stick with squashfs.
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Please answer the questions I gave you... what happens when you create a contact on the phone and do a sync... does it appear at Google online?

Do you actually HAVE data online? sure it's still there?

Also, try a manual sync by going to your phone and choosing accounts... then turn off auto sync, then turn it back on... it should force a sync.
[Touch HD Android Development] Afinkawan:
I started with a freshly formatted Sandisk 8gb micro SDHC card and got the same sort of freezing.

After some messing about with it yesterday I think that the freezing was just due to overloading the phone - either to many downloads wanting to try new apps or having too many apps running.

As long as I used the app killer installed on it - it hasn't frozen since yesterday so I guess that's the problem. I hadn't used Android before so I didn't realise that the apps don't close when you come out of them!
[Touch HD Android Development] jez.stix:
hello Helios1205 hope the attached pic helps. jez
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Actually the users community can jerk lessminded people for you, helping you workin' on some more exiting things, like...hum..., an android build :D

I do remember one or two builds running with an app folder where users had the choice of their apps. That was not totally handy, and not totally working, yeah.

About 4/5 apss coocked onto the build, what's the problem with this? Those apps still can be updated in the Market, so why to bother with that (issue) question? The main aim is to get a stable build, no matter apps or no apps, isn't it?

my two cents
[Touch HD Android Development] k-zik:
I'm totally agree with you, but i'm talking about my own experience with it, that i want to share with others.

if we can run it on the internal memory,i'm sure i'ts gonna be more fast and more fluid,i just hope ha one of the devs could make it possible before a rom!
[Touch HD Android Development] Dynamic_d:
When I manually ad a contact it stays shows and uploads to google no problem.

All of my contacts are currently on the google server as we speak.I tried to unsynce and resync and still no go :( Worked fine before on older builds. but its ok. I will just wait till new build...unless you might have some extra info for me :)

[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Did you read the opening post AT ALL?

The issue of a ROM is mentioned in the FAQ.

Also, I must suggest you do some research about 'differences'. The Touch HD doesn't even share the same processor. Doesn't have the same touchscreen technology... there's lot of differences. HTC didn't sit on their ass for 2 years and rebadge the HD you know ;-)
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:

[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
WAT?

Seems you just do not fear anything :D
[Touch HD Android Development] welki1979:
This happens to me if the SD card does not correctly format under windows.

Sometimes running a chkdsk on the SD card corrects the issue but you'll need to reinstall XDANDROID onto the card afterwards, if not then booting Ubuntu live-cd and formatting the card using linux (FAT32) usually gets it working again.

It also seems to do this if I boot XDANDROID too soon after a soft reset of the device. Am guessing it's because WM hasn't finished initialising properly before Haret tries to use the hardware.

...just my personal experience but others may have suggestions.

For me this only happens when changing volume in-call or switching from normal ring to silent/vibrate. I would assume a fix will come but lets let the devs get Android completly working first. ;)

Ok, after any try and errors i´t works fine on my MDA4c alias Diamond.

But, after startup i have to go to the Networksettings to the APN Settings. I must klick the green Button (behind T-Mobile). After that must activate use G2 Network only and then deactivate. So i have to wait one minute and i can use the Internet.

Is ita bug or a feature ? ;)

when i try to install, it goes to the "Welcome to AOSP on XDANDROID MSM" screen. when i touch the android to begin it just keeps going to select language and after i select english it goes right back to the same screen. what am i doing wrong? this was installed on a clean SD card.
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
A search would help you.

But you need to click the power button to get you to the home screen... from there, you can configure your WiFi or GPRS / 3G connectivity.
[Touch HD Android Development] theclaw37:
I'm having an issue. When i boot the rel 2.4 it's telling me to click the android, but when i do, some error shows up (something about maps (google.ggaps or something like that). After this, i try clicking the android again and nothing happens, and to make it even more interesting, sometimes it freezes the whole thing. I'm on a HTC HD and i set the install to HTC Blackstone (non overclocked)

Late edit: formated in fat32 and reinstalled. Managed to get past the first config, but froze when the desktop appeared.

[Touch HD Android Development] morfinx:
I noticed that it only happens when the signal level is very low. For example, when I'm at the office, WinMo would show 0 bar, but data and voice still work. In Android, it fluctuates between 0 and 1 bar. It seems like at some point it never recovers, even after the phone is moved to an area with ample signal. I can no longer make calls or use data until I reboot. However, WinMo always recovers fine in this situation. Has anyone else experienced similar things?

[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Working fine for me too using Maps and Navigon Navigator. Rarely drops out, and if it does, recovers in a few seconds (same as WinMo)

Readers, make sure you've actually got GPS enabled in the settings. Definitely working fine on HD for me. If you like tinkering, remember that the latest kernels aren't always a good thing... so make sure you're using the kernel supplied with this build to test GPS, then add a newer kernel as you see fit (but don't blame me if it breaks something)
[Touch HD Android Development] Dr.Slimm:
Any way to solve WiFi problem by my self (editing startup script or something) on TD2 Topaz? I tried a multiple versions of Android ports, but WiFi seems to work fine only with ver 1.6. With 2.1 only once. I tried format SD card with no luck. Now I can clean first boot from haret, then activate WiFi, sometime scan for networks but restart occur in few seconds and then i get WiFi status "Failed to start WiFi" (maybe not word by word, I choosed czech localization). Olny turn device off nad on agin help, but same result turn WiFi on - reboot occur (sometime after turn on, beacause sucessful network scan occur, sometime instantly during turning on WiFi) - "Failed to start WiFi" status until cmplete turn off/on my device.
[Touch HD Android Development] Dr.Slimm:
After some investigation it seems, that it depends on WiFi setting in Windows Mobile. When I turn it off in WM, in Android it seems to work stable, but no wireless network can be scanned or connected. When WiFi is turned on in WM, it works, but very unstable, sometime it just reboot when some application try to use connection and then the problem remain (need to turn off/on again).

But I still appreciate this work guys.

Hello everybody,

I'm trying to install the XAndroid on my HTC Touch HD but got blocked.

I get the error "Waiting for SD card" when I try booting up the system.

First I formated my SDCard with Windows in FAT32. Then copied the CAB on the SDCard. When installing no problem, but at the end when I choose the phone I get an error regarding a shortcut (not a real problem I think). Then I launch the harpet.exe, and the boot block on "waiting for SDCard".

After that I tried the two solution (format with specialized application, and edit the startup.txt). Those two attempt had no effect on the problem.

Just another word: when installing I choose the SDCard to install but I also have the ability to choose intern memory. Should I try that? Are there risk for something on my WinMo installation?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards

NEVER install to internal memory. Only install to SD Card.

The 'waiting for SD Card' problem is well known and many users have it (and many do not)... this problem happens in all builds and the precise reason is not known (although older class 2 cards work better than newer class 6 cards).

I have not enough time to lose the battery as Android freezes in less than 10 minutes on my Blackstone.

I installed on clean SD card from CAB, latest build, selected Blackstone (not overclocked), and booted.

It looks really cool, APN works, google sync works, it just freeze soon. There is not a special event when it happens. Sometimes instantly after boot, other time I was using google market, other time sms writing.

The win roms work well on my phone.

Usually I turned wifi off but the freeze didn't happen at that moment.
