Doesn't work.

Yes, the option is there. No, it doesn't work properly. It just reboots.

There seems to be NO way to turn this god damn phone off any more...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] duckdown:
The newest one. I just upgraded to Android last week from NFSFAN rom.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
If it's that big of a concern just pop the battery out and put it back in...or switch back to winmo..it doesn't look like anyone else has the issue
[Touch CDMA Android Development] duckdown:
What do you mean? Didn't you see the people 5 POSTS ABOVE that said they have the same issue?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
It was one person who had the issue and they said it didn't happen with the eclair kernel...so maybe try that...the other people meant that they can't charge it while it's off, which is true for everybody. I'm not sure why you have to have such a negative tone in all your posts and get so worked up about this...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] scramiro:
battery dont charge

I can't charge my battery by usb neither otrer ways. I have to come back to wm and charge my polaris100. I don't how it happened, but i tried to install another builds and same problem. So, should i format sd? is there any thing i should try? thanks a lot.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] slow88lx:
I just held the red end button, the menu came up. I selected "Power Off". My phone is now sitting on my desk here and is turned off. If I plug it into a charger, it will turn on. Are you experiencing something different?

BTW just recently a member created an update to make the internal Android task switcher work. There are also countless apps in the market made for task switching and task killing.

Seriously tone it down a notch. No one is forcing you to use any of this. Educate yourself a little and ask nicely when you can't find the answer with the search button.

Same here...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] duckdown:
I'm just wondering why such basic, trivial things don't work. Instead of worrying about things like themes, wouldn't it be smarter to make... ya know.. the basics actually work?

[RANT]

To ALL KNUCKLEHEADS:

These are software builds that people spend alot of time on and then give away for free. If you have a suggestion or problem, politely log it in the appropriate thread and Myn, Incubus26Jc, mssmision, etc always seem very accommodating and try to fix things promptly if they can.

I'm amazed at the attitudes, snide comments, and sense of entitlement that are sometimes displayed; not just in this thread but others as well.

If you don't like this build (or the 2.1 builds from Incubus26Jc), GO BACK TO WINMO!!!

[/RANT]
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Well...I guess every now and then this community gets ungrateful trolls. This obviously works for the majority of users, what don't you get about that? Did you try the eclair kernel? Is it that much of a hassle to just take out the battery? Do you really have to turn your phone off that much? Do you understand the work it has taken to make all of this even possible and usable?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Gersonian:
I don't mean to point out the obvious here, but have you tried reflashing? I know you probably have all the apps and what not that you like, but sometimes its just a bad flash. You can try flashing the .nbh with the taskswitcher in it, or start with a full reflash and system install. It could be just about anything.

While I am sure that you have potentially tried this, no one has actually asked, and you seem quite pissed. Myn has put a ton of work into this build. It works for the most part for most people. As you are one of maybe two people with this issue, I would say the basics are working and working well.

If you have not reflashed the ROM as a whole or even just the kernel, then I think you need to give it a shot and then come back.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
No, I think it would be smarter if you read some threads before bashing the devs.

Myn has no control over the fact that the phone won't stay off while plugged in. If you have an issue with that (and I think I've read you do) then go make a request in the kernel thread.

Incubus26jc makes most of the themes and, again, has NOTHING to do with the either sleep issue. (Sorry to the other themers I'm skipping over.)

YOU, while not alone, are in a very small minority who can't get the phone to turn off from the long press end menu. How about reading what kind of information would be useful for troubleshooting and posting THAT instead of your completely unfriendly, disrespectful, and sarcastic demands for answers?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cbaty08:
I for one think this is a legitimate question... And I do agree it should be a request in the kernel.. No need to harp on the guy.

I think he is refferring to trying to get the MOST out of our battery by fully draining it and then fully charging it.... Without it being able to be in the OFF state while plugged in, this is unachievable.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Computers are very complicated things. Thousands of users can all have the same computer and run the same OS but have very different experiences. There are millions of variables in play that effect how computers work.

I think I speak for most users, that the shutdown procedure using the end button works consistently well. At least it does on my Sprint device.

I am sorry to hear this functionality doesn't work well for you. It may be associated to your radio, carrier or even your specific device. Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce the problem you are having.

What I would recommend is providing us with a logcat (adb logcat). This will give us more information into the problem and there is a higher probability we will be able to fix it.

xda is very much about developers helping developers. That's what is so great about this community. I would encourage you to try and fix the problem if you can and provide value back into the community so other users like yourself can prosper from it.

If you need a hand, let me know.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Quadman:
I just redid my phone to get my gps to work. I followed the directions and downgraded my radio and i'm now up to vw winmo 6.1 3.77 radio rom. I didn't let customization run. I was wondering if I could install Droid from this point and my gps will work?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
As promised I have updated the first post with an Android Update that contains a Contacts.apk that doesn't have the categorization functionality. This should dramatically improve performance for people with hundreds or thousands of contacts.

Non-categorized Contacts for users with lots of contacts that want better scrolling performance
[Touch CDMA Android Development] durtydawg:
First let me start by saying this is not a complaint but a question and secondly I appreciate all the hard work that goes into something like this. Now for the question. Is anyone else having phone issues if they use different themes? I have a tilt and as long as I stick with the theme that comes with warm donut my phone (calling/Text) works pretty well I i change themes via update my phone (calls/Text) stops working.

I opened the themes tars and do not see anything that should cause this. Symptom is if I try to make a call It never rings and I can not hang up I have to reboot in order to end the call and text wont send.

Again my phone is ATT tilt orginal windows mobile 6.1 rom and radio.

thanks in advance
[Touch CDMA Android Development] JM-PDA:
I am running the "Dark Dream" theme from the first post and can confirm with no problems at all with that theme.

Though, I am using a Vogue. Not sure how the hardware of an ATT Tilt compares.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BigBadBuu:
+1 to this.

Unfortunately, however, this sort of thing will only get worse as the Android port becomes more popular.

It's inevitable, you see, as this is how they've been raised--to be loud-mouth, ignorant, ungrateful... Best to simply just ban them w/out warning and move on. If they haven't yet learned this at home, work, or in a school-yard/bar-room ass-beating, no lecture here is going to help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] slow88lx:
What is the functional difference? Are the contacts not grouped by the first letter or something? I have like ~300 contacts and scrolling is only kinda slow. I guess my question is: what feature is lost with this type of Contact app?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
The only feature that is lost is the heading that indicates the category title by contact name. Not really a big deal IMHO.

Give it a try. If you prefer the original you can always just reflash back the original system retaining data to get it back.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] conanford:
Yes I meant 1.6, oops.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] slow88lx:
Seems faster.

I have enough contacts that every letter has a contact...no need to have the letter headings.

Thanks for doing this!

edit: I don't really care, but now the contact app doesn't have the cool Aero theme icon(best theme yet!). Is there a way to get it back?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
If GPS test works in winmo, then gps will work in android.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Tukang PDA:
i just wanna ask, is it true that android system can only install apps in the device memory? because whenever i download apps from the market, it will be placed on the device. i dont see any apps data on my sd card. is that true?

request to all members here

hello to all the members here - specially the junior members

sorry to have to write this, but now and then i see some members getting upset that their problem is not being solved or understood properly. perhaps they feel that it is (or should be) a piece of cake for the programmers to immediately diagnose their problem and tell them what the solution is.

i myself learned programming in some languages but that was years ago. but i know how much time it takes to make sure each button and touch input has to work properly and always.

So, with full respect to all the members, please always keep in mind that this is a voluntary community and the developers who are trying to give us something we want have their own paid jobs to take care of first.

it is generous of them that they are giving any time to all this out of their spare time which most us are probably giving to our families and loved ones.

so, just consider how much time they are actually able to give each day and each week.

WE ALL HAVE SEVERAL QUESTIONS ALL THE TIME, BUT PLEASE BE PATIENT AND GO THROUGH THE DIFFERENT THREADS FIRST TO CHECK IF YOUR PROBLEM HAS ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED SOMEWHERE. the SEARCH option works well in most cases.

Best Wishes to All

Working Awesome!!

Hey guys,

Just want to inform you that this stuff works AWESOME!!! Animations playing fast. Slides nicely. Boot fast....

Wow!!! Really Awesome.

But I do one questions. I can't really connect via USB to my laptop. Why is that and is there any solutions?

Thank you to Myn for a great Warm Donut. lol

[Touch CDMA Android Development] o2-lover:
to connect android to computer

sync software for windows mobile does not work with google android, understandably. you need to install HTC sync, if you are able to install it successfully or some other software to sync.

those who want to sync contacts again, i suggest you sync your outlook contacts with Google account contacts and then sync google contacts with your handset. that way you also have a back up online globally.

Contacts

Thanks for your quick work, Myn. I must have done something wrong, however, and I'm not sure what. After the update the contacts icon has changed, but there is still the lag when contacts open as they are grouped, alphabetized, by name (and why, oh why, has google decided that contacts should be alphabetized by first name?). Any idea what I'm getting wrong?

Thanks again for your superb work on the build and your quick responses on issues.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kcksum:
Installed on an HTC Touch (Vogue100) and it works perfect except for the Camera. Every time I enter any app that uses the camera the the phone soft resets.

Anyone know what might be wrong?

I used the latest voguimg-240x320-08-04-10.nbh
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
hrm.

With the update applied does it resemble this:

Or does it resemble this:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] revcp:

It resembles the first of the two.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] slow88lx:
The update worked for me. I no longer have the Letter headings, like the second one.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Okay.

Try redownloading and reapplying the update again if you don't mind.

I really want to get this squared away for you.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] revcp:
contacts apk and update

Here's another question. Seems that the update didn't "take" for me and I need to try it again, but can I remove the "light" file from my 4gb sd, put update in andboot on sd (removing other files first, of course) and update from that or do I need to do it through an empty (except for andboot folder, of course) 2b or < sd? Would be much simpler to do the former, as I can do that by connecting phone to pc and using sd as mass storage. Otherwise I need to remove card, put card in, remove card, etc...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Yeah you can download the "light" file.

And yes you can just put androidupdate.tar into the /andboot directory and apply the update through the menu system.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Lintegras:
You might want to check out this link from the first post as it is specific to Polaris users whereas, a majority of us are Vogue users and will be unable to assist.

What version of zImage are you using? You can always obtain the newest version from his thread here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=382265) or by going to his site here (http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D).

Actually, I just saw in the kernel thread the two other users are asking about the camera causing a soft reboot. You may want to post over there and also use a later version of the .nbh / zimage. If the camera works fine in the previous version, you will want to let the kernel developers know about the issue so they can re-correct it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] revcp:
Well, it mystifies me why things sometimes don't work and then do, but this time the update worked. No grouping by letter and it loads more quickly. Thanks, Myn!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Excellent :)

Don't get to comfortable yet though.

Release 5 will be coming out today :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] GeJohnO:
I had the same problem with the camera causing a soft reboot and the phone randomly restarting with the 4-4 nbh.

I reflashed to the 31-3 and it works great, no issues.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] revcp:
Ha! No, if comfort were what I'm after I'd still be using winmo 6.1! I'm very new to droid and have been skimming all this, so do I remember correctly that we can do the newer version updates and retain data? Would that pertain also to switching from 240x320 to 320x480?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] GeJohnO:
When you go to install the new build, just click "no" when it asks you to wipe all data. And to switch resolution you can just flash between nbh's as you choose and it won't affect your data.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] revcp:
Beautiful. Thanks!

OK, quick question (and I'm asking it here because after searching I couldn't really find the answer). I thought flashing was done through the RUU with the whole, pwr-camera-reset, tri color screen, serial to usb and then update from computer thing. And doesn't that "wipe" everything? It sound like there's another method for flashing nbh and update the ROM as a whole, yes? What would that be?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Gersonian:
Badass! Been looking forward to it... Thanks for all the hard work!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] GeJohnO:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
RLS 5 - 04-24-2010 Now Up!

RLS 5 now available for download.

As there are significant changes in this release I would recommend you clear data before running this build.

More performance improvements

Added patched tattoo Market That allows full market (all apps) regardless of resolution

Added faux HTC flipclock/Weather widget

New boot animation (Special thanks to pyrator)

Updated SpareParts which has now has a bunch of new goodies (home app in memory, Compcache/swap settings)

New RIL that defaults MCC to 310 and MNC to 260 eliminating dependency on paid market service script. (Special thanks to dzo)

Updated ADW Nexus Launcher now with full Nexus launcher fade in. No more drawer flicking upwards

Configurable number home screens (up to 7 now)

Quick uninstall feature, Just drag app icon over the launcher drawer and hold it until you see the uninstall message.

Updated Astro File manager

Added Rogue Tools allowing you to dynamically overclock and change screen density

New skinned Calendar and Widget.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Massassi:
This will be my first update so out of curiosity what data gets erased?

Im assuming its everything phone side?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vinny13:
Is the 320x480 version any more clearer? Is making it more clear even possible?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] GeJohnO:
240x320 is the native resolution of the phone, so that's why it's so much clearer.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's possible to make it clearer. It's like stretching an image to fit parameters that the Vogue wasn't designed for.

BTW: Great build Myn, I love the updates
[Touch CDMA Android Development] deafblind1:

Pathetic response.

What about my question makes me a troll?

Give me a break, it's a legitimate problem I'm having and just because you cannot seem to comprehend that through your thick skull doesn't make the person with the problem a "troll"

Nice fallback response when you have nothing of actual value to say, though.

Thanks, downloading now!

Your last build was by far amazing in every way and super stable.....Didn't think it could get any better. We will see!

The one thing I wish this build had was Swype......Can't seem to find a version for this resolution.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] revcp:
Think I found a glitch. I kept data the first time around. Pressing anything for voice input--google, dialing, Nav--resulted in a soft restart. I then read that it should be a clean install, so did that. Same result.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
Did you change the density at all? That might have something to do with it if you did.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] margosmark:
Well i did a complete clean install, and i didnt change any of those settings from the defualt.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
I'm not too sure then. I'm running 320 x 428 but not with the default theme. Does the dialer look right?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] margosmark:
Yep,perfect, its not really a big deal, figure i add some feedback
[Touch CDMA Android Development] j8971:
Excellent

Excellent work as usual Myn! I have not tried it out, does the calendar have a widget like the HTC Sense one?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
No, just the regular calendar. But it looks like it belongs now. Darker with a black background in the Calendar app itself.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Gonna check on this right now.

EDIT: Just checked it in 110 density.. I am going to fix this ASAP. Thanks for bringing this to my attention
[Touch CDMA Android Development] j8971:
That sounds good.

I don't know how many people really enjoy the use of widgets. I guess from the amount of people that use 240x320 I would go out on a limb and say that it doesn't matter that much. I for one will admit I love looking at HTC Sense widgets (primarily the calendar, message and mail widgets). The biggest one of all had to be the weather flipclock which you totally floored me with on this 5th release!:eek:

I have been all around the world like Lisa Stansfield and I continue to come back to you build. The big question of the day is…Can we, (for the people who want it), have some internal widgets most desired items to be made into widgets. Let me know. Once again, excellent work!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
Are you running the calculated 143 density? Does everything fit?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
Myn, is this still using Busybox 1.15.3? I upgrade mine to 1.16 as it allows ping/wget etc to access the DNS servers, always fails on 1.15.3 even if you set net.dns1 and net.dns2 and change it in resolv.conf.

If not, could you consider it in the next release (if there is one)...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] fldash:
Is 320x428 no longer supported? I was considering trying it...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] j8971:
Good question! This size is more clear than 320x480 and you can still use a lot of widgets from the market.
