Nand working but how to Sync?

Flashed Using Nand and works great, but i cant get my windows computer to sync with the device at all even using HTC Sync on my computer

and when i connect it using disk mode, the sd card can not be remounted?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cyburke:
myn - hello - thank you for the response

i am using the SQSH package located in the first post w/ a standard SD Card... i remove all existing android stuff on my SD Card (only an /Android folder) and then copy the -new- /Android folder from your zip.

from there run Haret.exe, click Run, and wait for it to load.

that is when i get the tons of popups which occur about failed apps....

:confused:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cyburke:
pardon my ignorance here - just to clarify - is the NoMoRootFS Instructions for SDCard going to do basically the same thing as me manually copying /Android to my SDCard, or is it going to clear my WinMo and setup Android as my primary OS?

i am confused about that....

I seem to be having some audio issues. In addition to the ring tone only playing once when I receive a call, I'm also not getting the audio to play at all when an alarm goes off. I get the on screen notification to snooze or dismiss, but I don't get the actual alarm sound.

Anyone else having audio related issues?

Myn, along with the bugs I reported (blue highlight line and flickering menu) I feel like the donut conf may be missing or something. When I use the browser and return to home screen, the icons/widgets take a few seconds to load. Also I occasionally get random icons being smaller than they should be, but they go back to normal after reboot. This isn't an issue with lcd density because it's only a few icons and they are small in the launcher too.

Hi, question regarding bluetooth pairing with car.

Hi Myn, the bluetooth will pair if the phone is on, but disconnect when the phone goes into sleep mode, back again if I turn on the screen, would you happen to know what's causing this?

Thanks.

Awesome release by the way.

Contact Help

I'm using gmail for contacts in android and wm. Want to make the jump to full time android. Problem is I have various contacts with a ton of info in the notes field.

In WM I can see all notes in any contact no matter how much info is in the note field. But in Android, only the first few lines of text in the note field is there.

How do I fix this? I remember having this problem in certain wm 6.1 roms, but it just seem to get corrected along the way.

After reboot Android not working.

After ~1min screen turn black and backlight always on.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
I should have noted this in the first post. The DeskClock Alarm which I am guessing you are using currently doesn't provide audible feedback. For this reason I included the tradional "Alarm Clock".

I will update the first post.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

Anyone having a problem with the following on the sqsh build

1. Receiving Text messages (Only confirmed I can receive text messages if I'm

[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
no. not yet, we don't have proper vold usage setup yet. But it's something we're working on.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
NEW! we now have three general ways to connect your phone to your computer (not including booting win mo if you are running from the sd card).

ADB

you can use the android debugging bridge to do most things - transfer files, install .apks, run shell commands, and more.

Advantages: can use while android is up and running

Disadvantages: some are afraid of the command prompt, but don't worry, there is ADB explorer for you

To run:

1. set up adb on your computer - read here. you will also need to also download and install ADB file explorer if you want a GUI interface.

2. go to settings > applications > development and ensure USB debugging is checked, you'll also probably want to check Stay awake.

3. with android running, connect phone to computer. wait. on my computer it can take a minute or two for it to be recognized. check to see if you are connected by a) running command "adb list devices" in a command prompt, or b) running ADB file explorer - if you see a list of device files on the right then it has fully initialized

USB MASS STORAGE from within android

see here. thx ckl_88.

USB MASS STORAGE from install menu

1. reboot your phone

2. hold down this button while rebooting until the install menu comes up

3. pick "start recovery mode"

4. connect to your computer, you now have your micro sd card connected as a mass storage device. hit enter on the phone to return to the install menu.

Freakin' Awesome!!!!! Great job. Thanks:)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
I'll consider that a small improvement since it wasn't booting before... I think I'm ready to give up on this one since I cant do any testing. Very frustrating. It's clearly something to do with the norootfs setup since a lot of files moved and the automatic substitution of config files no longer takes place.

Maybe someone can just add the wifi-specific parts of the init.donut.kaiser.rc to the sysinit.rc that comes with the build and see if that does it. or if myn knows exactly what changes were made to the vogue init, maybe he could change a kaiser init accordingly. But without being able to test it myself it's a waste. Ok, kaiser/polaris guys, time for one of y'all to step up. :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Psycoboy15:
I loaded the sqsh that was in the package as well as the conf and it screwed something up. I ended up reloading the nhh (whatever the file extension is). Then loading my rootfs and black datafs and the standalone sqsh that is included in the first post and it worked fine.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
So you think there is an issue with the donut.user.conf included in the SDCard Kit?

What donut.user.conf did you end up using? The one in the basefiles? (basefiles-20091116.zip)?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Psycoboy15:
Not sure if it's the base kit or not but this is it here

# General parameters

}

Also the first time I used the system.sqsh that was included in the kit instead of the standalone one you had. But once I did that, I wasn't able to load another working system.sqsh. If I tried it had the same issue. So thats when I went the route of re-flashing then using the standalone sqsh with the conf I knew worked.

[edit]

I am trying the first sqsh again now that I got it basis working. I'll let ya know the results

[Touch CDMA Android Development] Psycoboy15:
No problems here. Even used latitude
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Thanks for all of your help narrowing this down.

Doing a diff on the donut.user.conf you posted and the included donut.user.conf in the sdcard kit the only difference is the additional custom shell command at the very end: chmod 777 /etc/dbus.conf

# custom shell commands, these commands run last
custom_shells{
#echo "Hello!!!" # example
#echo "You can create your own commands here" # example
[B]chmod 777 /etc/dbus.conf[/B]
}

I just adb shell into my vogue which is running off the sdcard via haret using the ext2 method and upon checking the permissions of /etc/dbus.conf:

/etc # ls db*
dbus.conf
/etc # ls -al dbus*
-rwxrwxrwx 1 1002 1002 935 Jan 18 00:06 dbus.conf

It appears the security on this file is set correctly with the 777 permissions.

I'm left scratching my head.

Has anyone else been successful using the donut.user.conf that came in the sdcard kit on NAND?

Thanks for all your help guys :)

I now keep getting the error "No sys found on SD, booting Part/NAND" followed shortly by "Failed to find system.img on SD Card" and I can't figure out why.

Anyone seen this error before? I had this build running just fine earlier today...

I tried all the usual stuff (formatted SD card, started from scratch with the zip on the front page, etc.) and nothing seems to work. Even tried a fresh SD card...

[Touch CDMA Android Development] mblaster:
A little feedback from Nike:

I tried 240*320 on my nike (20key), without rootfs installed in ext2. It boots and feels smooth, but has several issues:

Calls dont work, the phone app crashes

Looks like anything that leads to audio output (pressing volume down) leads to some kind of crash and no audio output

Data doesn't work, but that may be due to other issues as it also doesn't work on other NoRootFs builds

The text in the settings menu has a strange aspect ratio (looks kind of stretched)

I hope that those issues can be solved somehow, as I really like your build. Smooth, nice and fast -> thats exactly the way it is meant to be.

I'm getting between 20.5 and 20.9 FPS on Neocore running Myn's latest off of NAND. I wonder why everyone's having these issues with GPS, graphics, and other things? I wonder if it's the version of the NBH file that people are using. When installing to NAND, the only two files in play are the installation tar file and the nbh file, and as long as the versions are correct, I'm not sure why these hiccups are happening. Different versions of hardware perhaps, even within the same line of phone? Very strange....
