Many updates but still not working .... where I mistake?

I flashed a new ROM ....

I formatted the microsd in fat32 with the recommended software.

I installed the cab on the SD and run the installation ... but then when i launch the executable ... the famous phrase "waiting for sed card" goes on and on ...

But where am I wrong?

I have a HTC HD

I give up ... I tried to add the file STARTAP code "msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax = 14,000,000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave" but not working!

So far, the only live wallpapers that work are those that can be downloaded in the market. (starfield, digital rain) The rest like those from nexus one which is included doesn't. I was hoping it would though....

First time putting on android!

Quick question...i know this cab takes care of all the necessary steps of installing and booting android but will these setting stay if say i wanted to dl and try and 2.1 espresso?

I don't really know how else to put it. sorry!:p

ANDROID 2.1 for HD2?!

Has anyone looked at/working on porting the Android to the HD2?

I'd love to try it out if there is something.. ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] sraaj:
if 2.1 is about updating zImages or so on, it should work, let me read the 2.1 thread and will post back..
[Touch HD Android Development] W00fer:
Works good on my HD (tested version 1.2) version 1.9 comes later.

-Orange status led at the top always on.

-Youtube video play doesn't work

-Wifi turn off freezes device.

-Some clicking/popping noise on speaker on/off

-Streaming audio (internetradio) doesn't work. Keeps buffering and buffering.

-Device becomes a little warm

-Word prediction is very irritating.

-Google Street view constantly messes up maybe because of the Gsensor

-Marketplace works fine

-Advanced task killer is needed, i think you have only half the memory available of a normal Android device (around 80-90 mb)

Need to test:

-Bluetooth

-Headphone jack

-Dualboot (if it exists)
[Touch HD Android Development] blackster:

not working

Dude its not working (HTC touch diamond) 1Month old

i launch it and it is doing what it have 2 but when the sim login pops up the google something nots responding do u know whats happenin ´:(:eek:
[Touch HD Android Development] sraaj:
Android works on Diamond, as far as I have tested.

The PIN must be disabled. This feature is not support yet on Android builds and the pin must be disabled in WM before booting into Android.
[Touch HD Android Development] sraaj:
I wish I could get rid of that, it inserts name of people for simple english words like to and good :(

I have a Dual Boot on Diamond, and it works with 1.2 release very well. You can pick it up here...

[Touch HD Android Development] sbarts:
hi all. i've been using version 1.9 for a couple of days and i'm very very impressed with it. my only real problem is with the calibration of the screen which seems to be slightly out, any help with that would be great. i've noticed lots are still using version 1.2, is this a better version for the blackstone and if so where can i download it?

thanks for your help.

Hi

Sorry if this is another stupid question but how do you select the various keyboards. I managed to change it to Touch Input but can't change it back to the default android keyboard.

Thanks
[Touch HD Android Development] WinningDays:
Touch a space where you can use your keyboard and press this space about 2 secs and you will have the possibility to change your type of kb.

if a newer version of android comes out, do i have to uninstall the older one off my SD card, and reinstall the newer one? or can i just install it and it will update auto?
[Touch HD Android Development] W00fer:
So i tested both 1.2 and 1.9

1.9:

-Has a nicer theme

-Is slower than 1.2

-Doesn't have the status led constant on

-Seems to do a little longer with the battery

-Wifi can be turned off, 1.2 cannot

-Has a terrible touchscreen calibration file. The one in 1.2 was good.

-Has Android in a subfolder on the SD card.

-Dutch translation is sluggish, the one in 1.2 was better.

-Has BLACKSTONE id's and info.

-Has a better wifi driver i think, finds more networks and SSID's.

-In sleep the status led blinks green.

-Does have some usefull apps like CPU manager and Javabox.

1.2:

-Is faster

-Theme is standard android which has a better keyboard

-Better touchscreen calibration

-Better Dutch translation

-Has status led constant on.

-Has less apps than 1.9

I installed dualboot but it couldn't find my Android.

First it whiped my memcard, it said on boot that it had SPL Olinex on it?
[Touch HD Android Development] gez05:
Hmm, I've tried adding the snd.force_headset=2 line into the startup, but it's not working.

It makes all sound come out of the jack...like ringing and text alerts too. Even if there isn't anything plugged in.

I'd also like to know there is a way that I can perma turn of 3G. I never use it and don't want to be charged a whole lot by orange. The xG with up and down arrow keeps popping up in my notification bar area...
[Touch HD Android Development] sraaj:
It works fine on 1.2 in diamond. WiFi on/off is stable.

I like the keyboard in 1.2 and is definitely faster. Dualboot works perfect in 1.2 (on diamond) but does not with any other version....
[Touch HD Android Development] welki1979:
It might just be me but my device seems a bit smoother when using the 1.9 build BUT with the zImage and eclair.user.conf file from this thread (on glossy v2.0)

(I don't use the partitioning method so I installed the cab from this thread and replaced the files before running android, they are different file sizes but not sure what else is different)

EDIT: Ok after a small test it appears wi-fi doesn't work though when you do this.
[Touch HD Android Development] moolades:
oops

why can't I change wallpaper on 1.2 ???
[Touch HD Android Development] moolades:
oopss

I mean it only can change the built-in wallpaper, How do I change another wallpaper on 1.2 ?????
[Touch HD Android Development] W00fer:
I have the 1.9 running on dualboot. Since android is now in a subfolder, you need to edit the registry of Gen Y bootloader to value 1 instead of 0.

And then a reboot. It's the value androidlocation or something. Says 0 hex value standard, should be 1.

I'm returning back to 1.2 or glossy themed eclair 2.0.

Help

I Currently have Miri ROM with WM6.5 on my HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) If I install this build of Android, will I loose all my phone numbers and text messages?
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
NO, it doesnt touch Windows Mobile at all.... it installs to your SD card and leaves everything in Windows Mobile safe
[Touch HD Android Development] DanBergundy:
You won't have access to them from Android though.
[Touch HD Android Development] JordanLeft:
So like when I install it to the SD card...What happens when i boot the phone?
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
1) Android is installed on the SD Card

2) A shortcut is added to your Windows Mobile programs menu to launch Android.... so you just run 'android' like any other app....

HOWEVER, once you run android, you'll be kicked out of Windows Mobile, and you'll boot into Android (Windows Mobile will no longer be running)

When you've finished playing with Android, just reboot.. you'll boot into Windows Mobile as always.

You MIGHT want to try reading some stuff first....

Because.... you're going to end up asking a lot more questions, of that I'm sure.

90% of users who run Android end up liking it and would rather use it that WinMo. Sadly, the power consumption and stability aren't (yet) as good as WinMo, but if you don't mind charging your phone every day, and you can live with a few reboots....it's great. (note, the REAL android is much more stable and power consumption's fine...THIS Android is real, but still in development, since it's being 'ported' to the HD, so not perfect yet)
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
I think it will happen eventually, but it's an entirely different processor, and... people who bought a HD2 had the option to buy an Android phone... so many of them preferred WinMo.

Whereas the original HD guys didn't have any Android options... so there's more likelyhood of folks wanting Android for the older diamond/hd/raph etc
[Touch HD Android Development] whitefalcon:
Does your version require the SDcard to be partioned??? like scanny :confused:
[Touch HD Android Development] welki1979:
No...as mentioned in the first post - nice and easy, just run the cab.
[Touch HD Android Development] thecasimir:
something strange, my 1st try with android was with Android 2.1 espresso ripped package by klinux

and he work fine.

Today I have try this one XDAndroid 2.0.1 rel 2.0 and with this one I have this message on the 1st boot

"failed to mount sd card".

it's the same sd card and they don't work with this one and work with klinux android archive.
[Touch HD Android Development] whitefalcon:
Did you try anything with the SDcard like partitioning the card or try to format under different file system like FAT 16 or other formats...
[Touch HD Android Development] thecasimir:
no, I have use the sd card as is.
[Touch HD Android Development] whitefalcon:
hmm ok why don't you try backingup your files frm your SDcard and then format it under windows or frm the phone itself and do clean copy of the android files onto the SDcard and then try to boot up android :D see if tht works :cool:
[Touch HD Android Development] rawinr:
Thanks for this Thread!!

Great work!

And Can i add new fonts?
[Touch HD Android Development] sjonniesw:
when press run haret it say's " cannot open script file\ android\default.txt

what am i doing wrong?
[Touch HD Android Development] whitefalcon:
If you are using Blackstone then you will need to find a folder called blackstone and in tht you will find a text file called startup.txt or any text file in tht folder[when you open the text file you shud find the last word as boot so tht means you are on the rite track :D] and copy tht text file in the root of the folder now the name of the file can be startup.txt or if u guessed it name it as default.txt :D
[Touch HD Android Development] WinningDays:
Try to rename the STARTUP file STARTUP.EXE, sometimes the file manager only deals with "STARTUP", and not "STARTUP.EXE. I had this trouble 2 or 3 times and my solution fixed this issue well :)
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Follow the procedure on the opening page.... skip ANY step and it won't work.

Follow the steps and it WILL work.

You're getting that error because you don't have startup.txt in the Android folder, the reason you don't have that file is because you unzipped the Android zip and didn't carry out the installation instructions. If you used the cab, this would be done for you.

The opening post tells you how to install the zip... read the small print of step 2
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
This installation doesn't work that way, there's an installer script that will set up the right startup.txt for the device you're running on. The instructions are clear on the opening post (the cab will automatically run the installer, and the zip will require a manual run on the installer).... the most common mistake is that folks unzip the zip file and assume that's all they need to do (unfortunately, it's impossible for me to avoid the installer requirement, since the release works on ALL devices, and needs to choose the right startup.txt)
[Touch HD Android Development] thecasimir:
ok it work now with fresh format

edit:

1st boot ok, after android install I remove the cell to boot winmo

2 boot same error, remove the cell and boot winmo and after soft reset, now android boot

each time I have to boot winmo and soft reset to be able to launch android

[Touch HD Android Development] whitefalcon:
Ahh okkk but when i tried it or rather experimentin wud be a better word fer it :D i had the same problem so i jus guessed and put in the startup.txt file at the root and it booted up android.... :cool:
[Touch HD Android Development] whitefalcon:
Did u happen to read this post first before postin abt it :D

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5530128&postcount=1

-Touchscreen improved

-Swype is an expired copy

-No subfolder anymore

-I can't go to the desktop anymore with the on/off button ?

-Deep sleep problem is still there. Had to soft reset once.

problem to save apn configuration

hello, I have install the last version of android blackstone, and when I wanna to configure my apn connection I can't save the parametters someone have an idea ??
[Touch HD Android Development] gladiusdei:
Thanks

I installed the .cab version on my HTC FUZE and it is absolutely fantastic. Yes, not everything works (yet?) but I'm pretty stunned at how much better it runs than any WM rom I've ever used - even gimped up and off the SD card as it is. Even sans camera and gps, if the power usage would stabilize, I'd be thrilled to use this as my full-time mobile os.

Thanks to everyone who has put in such hard work and effort.
[Touch HD Android Development] abdess47:
no solution for me ??:( thanks for avance
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Do you mean you can't EDIT them, or can't SAVE them?

Both work fine for me...

You need to 'ADD' an APN using the home key to bring up the Android menu.. then click 'add'.

Edit your APN and click the home key to bring up the Android menu and choose 'Save'...

Voila!

The method I use is to create two APNs. One which is an valid APN and one where I enter Standby for APN Name and no other details.

Thus I have two APNs, and when I want to switch off the data connection, I go to Settings > Wireless & Network Settings > Mobile Network Settings > Access Point Names

and select the small round button (extreme right) for the Standby APN.

So i updated my review on page 76. I'm back to 1.2 version because it's faster and more stable. I think i'm going to mess around a little with the zImage and so.
[Touch HD Android Development] Flintz:
One little question:

If I want to update Android without downloading a new CAB file which files inside the Android folder have to be overwritten?

Only zImage, modules-xxxx and rootfs.img? Or some more?
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
It depends...

SOMETIMES you can just overwrite those files....

sometimes, you need the Conf folder too

and sometimes you need a new Startup.txt file

and finally sometimes you need to delete your data.img file (where all your data is stored!)

It depends on the build, and there are never any good release notes to tell you which components to overwrite. This is usually what it's easiest to have a totally new build with known working components.

You will rapidly get very good at setting up your phone quickly!...

Tip: use google contacts and calendar if you want to keep all your contacts and calendar entries. It's free and has online Sync via WiFi or Data connection.

I wish I could say 'it's easy, just update three files'... but I can't, it's very messy sometimes.

Sadly some cards just don't work... this is the same for every single build of Android... it's a well known problem, and well documented in all the threads.

It seems class 2 devices are the most likely to work... usually older SD Cards.

Sadly, there's nothing I can do about it other than the recommended options that help with some cards...

Your only choice is to try another card :-(

One day, more cards might be supported... you're definitely not the only one with this issue.
