One of the best android rom what I saw, but still quite slow and there is room for improvement. I hope you soon will have, which now can be used for everything and will not se anything wrong.

Keep it up ...:)

[Touch HD Android Development] mitikos:
nice, but i still have problems with the touchscreen on blackstone...

The same problem only the 1% (ye... everybody has it) of the people who owns the blackstone have :)

Touchscreen is unusable with the fingers, unprecise, is like touching 3cm on the left all the pressions. Better with stylus.. but poitless.

[Touch HD Android Development] mitikos:
*.7z is a compressed archive like a *.zip or a *.rar, u need a program like WinRaR to unpack the files that contains.
[Touch HD Android Development] bikaso:
thanks man v.much man i found it and i finished installation but i have question plz. the device is v.v.slow i dont know why. any suggestions to make it faster or there any thing wrong i did it ???? by the way the battery is low . there any thing from the side of the battery effecting the speed of the phone?????

[Touch HD Android Development] mitikos:
Battery is never been accurate, the speed is like this, couse is just a "beta", u can also overclock a bit the blackstone adding a line in the startup, but i dont remember now, u can search it in the forum.

Neopeek installer

I installed the Sense version... I must say, I LOVE IT!! However, it is a little slow... Therefor the Neopeek is a very fast version of Andriod (2.2)...

Is it possible to make the version work with the neopeek installer? By doing that, maybe the speed wil increase?

GPS is not working with me, are you planning to add this in your next release?

Is there already an Andriod 2.2 version with Sense?

Keep up the good work!! Loving it!!
[Touch HD Android Development] bikaso:
hello guys

i find way to make it little bit faster . when u r under windows mobile OS just close any application running and then go to sitting and then home and then disable the thc scence2.5 scene than start android . i don't know much about android but i just did it becaus i know that android looding under windows OS then more free memory u have on WM. is more fast u have on android. i hope thats useful for u guys

thanks :)

In downloading :-)

At the moment I have Wm 6.5 and Froyo 2.2 .

The froyo's files are all in the microSd ..... but this kind of android works not fine for me ( the battery does not long ) . Ever in microSd I revrite zImage and other file.tar to modific the Kernel but batteru doesn't work better however .

So ... my question is : when I finisched to download "2.1 whith Sense" , what I have to do ???

Delete all files in microSd ( except my file like a tom tom ecc ) and re-install this Android ?

Anyone can tell me if the kernel in this version is OK and the battery work fine ?

Than you very much !!!!

P.S. my nick is Diamond but I Have a Htc HD Blackstone :p
[Touch HD Android Development] Diamond_htc_75:
Well, after clean mu microSd install Eclair .

In my opinion is FANTASTIC ! Obviously it work on HD Blackstone ( with his cpu and ram ), so it isn't much speedly . But the Sense is very beautiful, like a Desire ;-)

I'va some difficult to move a rainbow eheheh, there isn't a possibility to calibrate touch right ?

Another question : at the moment a red light on the top is always active , why ?

However it's graphically spectacular !!!
[Touch HD Android Development] Diamond_htc_75:
P.S. How do I turn off the pda ?

[Touch HD Android Development] emma.barker:
Hi,

I just installed and I think it is (potentially) great.

I have a couple of issues:

1) battery life is VERY poor: a full charge probably lasts for 3-4hs. I also noticed that the screen never turns off...I mean, it goes black but is not turned off (sorry for the bad explanation, cannot do any better), this might be an explanation?

2) market crashes when hitting the search button

3) in general, the system is slow

I used the first version uploaded in the very first post of the topic, I understand that some issues may be solved in the second release but I cannot find a link to download it!

Anyone who could help????

Thanks!
[Touch HD Android Development] ToebbeL:
Could you please load your Version again on rapidshare?.

I think it's very interesting

[Touch HD Android Development] hanlence:
god, this is the best ever.

except the turninng off the wifi will ocasionally freeze, others runs great

you are the man:cool:
[Touch HD Android Development] mnm372:
really nice and responsive build. wifi on/off freeze was solved by putting power control widget on the desktop and i turn wifi on/off from there. The only major problem i have now is to wake up the device when the screen is off for a while...cannot wake it up anymore(power button/end button & all other button) only solution for me until now is to soft reset..if you guys have any solution, please, i'm begging, i really like it.

Thanks for your build

i have download and test the new version but i need to transfert all contact from wm to android how to?

the beautiful is possibiliti to sincronize contacts and message from wm to android and from android to wm

for dual boot how is a best for hd?

some one help me??? :) :D :confused::confused:
[Touch HD Android Development] hanlence:
use google account:

set up sync in you winmo system

use activesync and add a server, use your google account (user name: full eamil address and of course password) and "m.google.com" as server address, enable SSL, if domain needed, fill with "google". select what you want to sync, and then tah dah.

if you don't want you sync the existing contact in you google account, new google account suggested.

no possibility to log into google acc without inet .... bu t nice to see something is going on in the development ... :)
[Touch HD Android Development] Rocheau:
The best release I have tried until now. I am still missing a better work of the wake up function - sometimes after a deep sleep the button to wake it up does not work-. I have experimented lag effects after your push the phone button also.. Having said that, is the more reliable release I have tried until now: very close to the goal...

Is partition of sd needed in new build?or do i just place it in root normally :confused:
[Touch HD Android Development] Rocheau:
In my case I did not made any partition on the sd, just unzip the files in the root of my SD - replacing the old files I had of my previous build - and it worked perfectly. So, I suggest you make it in the same way as me. BTW, I do not think that to make a partition on your SD was a good idea, at least you want to use a SD just for Android. In my case I prefer to run Android sometimes, and sometimes Windows, so I need to use the same SD in both cases.

Did it that way and everything's okay,but my phone freezes alot and somehow my clock time changed this morning when i left android overnight...

but except that it's better than standard andr and pretty
[Touch HD Android Development] mcdull:
whether or not to use partition table is depends on the rootfs. The blackstone one is not completed in this regards. So nearly all blackstone build do not support partition table, until a new rootfs being developed.
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
lol, only a few hours ago i "installed" 1.2 and how a new one =D

i must say its pretty awesome, i look forward to future development, as it has great potential...

what i noticed is that when i turn off the screen (both with power and end-call, the device sometimes (about 50:50 chance) freezes, the screen wouldnt turn on again -> battery reset... am i doing something wrong (settings or the way i turned the display off?) coz thats the major problem i had so far, i would totally switch to android (flash energy lite) if that problem wasnt there :\

@edit: partitions no longer needed? i didnt create any last time...

@edit2: just downloaded 1.3 in combination with energy lite, i must say its like another world when compared to what i used before (full rom + previous 1.2) also many nice apps pre-included =D awesome :P
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
Thanks for the update, downloading now.
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
but the screen-off-freeze still occures :(

cant be that im the only one :confused:
[Touch HD Android Development] blc4:
you're not the only one this screen off freeze happens with my phone alot..sometimes it also freezes randomly when i scroll through something...but rarely

btw. when i turn on the screen with power on it takes like 4 sec to actually turn on
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
Hi

Thanks for all your work!

Can I use your new rootfs on the regular http://htcandroid.xland.cz/XDANDROID.02.02.10.7z ??

Is there any advantages of a partitioned SD-card?
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
i just listened to music, turned off the screen with end-call and after about 2 minutes the music stopped (device froze again.. damnit) but the radio is still working, i could call the phone and i heard the radio waves with my speakers... thats interesting ^^

@scanny: you say to "defrag" the memory (wifi issue), however i cant find any app to defrag the memory of what exactly do u mean by "defrag"?
[Touch HD Android Development] alixoft:
Keep up the good work, Scanny!
[Touch HD Android Development] succhiamelo:
sorry but the first and the last partition what is a dimension? i use a 2gb sd

and how i make?
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
How does the partitioned SD card benefit us. Can someone explain this?
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
i think its better for the os... since its linux a swap partition would be useful...

i didnt even know that sd cards can be partitioned in the first place.. please be more specific with explaining what to do...
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
Oops !

Removed Double post
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
I have used both the new built & new rootfs, really works very well. Can't comment on the deep sleep issue, but so far so good.

We really appreciate every person behind this project making dream come to reality.
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
and what about the partitions? someone explain, pleeease! how to create them and the use...
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
partitioning

Partitioning your card is easy.

I use Linux as os, and with gparted it is almost self explaining.

If you use Windows, you can download either ubuntu live or parted magic http://partedmagic.com/.

Boot from the cd and run gparted.

I have 8gb card and used P1:FAT32 7.1GB, P2:EXT2 300MB (label:system), P3: EXT2 300 MB (label: data) P4: linux swap 300MB (rest of the sd card)

I however tried to install this way, but after the install everything was in the FAT32 partition. system and data were empty.
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:
You must press VolDown at request for install in the ext partition...
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
about when is it prompted to press voldown?

and could you please explain the use of partitions? any stability/speed improvements?
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:
VolDown must pressed at startup...few seconds after starting haret.

Using partitioned SD significantly improves the speed of the system.

Use large swap partition for better results...;)
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
I did press voldown. Maybe to late?

But I used your rootfs and conf file, the rest I used the http://htcandroid.xland.cz/XDANDROID.02.02.10.7z.

only because I like to configure android myself to learn.

I will try again.
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:
Don't use rootfs.img from fist download link...it's not partitions enabled...
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
I used this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?5ujecvtzfny

I try again.

Will tell you how it goes!

Thanks scanny!!
[Touch HD Android Development] succhiamelo:
sorry scanny but i'm now not understand :confused::confused: is possible explain semplicity the operation step by step for use this version?

if is possible please write the step by step in italian :) :D
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
Hi again.

The install was ok. I hope.

It asked "backup data enter voldown" I entered voldown.

Then it asked "wipe data enter voldown" I did not enter and the install continued.

Is this right?

It all took veeery long time to install.

If I want to update the kernel oand modules, where do I put them?

Do I put them in the fat32 partition and just reboot??

Thanks again!
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:
Yes...it's right!!

For test new zImage you must put modules and zImage in the root of fat32 partition..
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:
Good news guys .... I'm testing a new build very fast and that for the moment does not present the problem of switch-off wifi and deep-sleep!

If all goes well l'll upload it tomorrow...;)
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
Looking forward to it!!!

hope the deep sleep problem is solved!!!:)

One last thing.

I am pretty sure i set the label on both data and system partition when I formatted, but now only data label shows not system, it only says 313MB filesystem when I mount it on my pc.

Does this matter? everything seems to work!
[Touch HD Android Development] scanny:
Don't worry...it's the same thing for me..
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
Thanks scanny! your help and all your work is much appreciated:D
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
well, i just partitioned my SD as stated in first post... then ran haret and i tried to follow every step of the install but i wasnt asked to press voldown for ex2 install... there was something with voldown at the very very beginning but it was so fast that i couldnt even read it, but the words i caught didnt have anything to do with ex2 or partitions or something...

and im using the partition enabled rootfs.img.

and good on the news with new build ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
Press voldown when it says: "press voldown to start the installer or end to........"

I think!!
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
is that at the absolut beginning when the black screen with white text appears?

cuz im gonna try installing it again now... i dont wanna miss it twice :(
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
no not first, cant remember maybe 10 sek.

pay close attention to the text.
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
That's a great new ! we all will be eagerly waiting for new build.
[Touch HD Android Development] mnm372:
a new build??that's a good news!!just not to be confused since 1.3 is already here. So the new build you are testing is 1.3 or 1.4?
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
build 1.3 is 2 days old, so the "new build" he is talking about will probably be "1.4"

google released some updates for android yesterday, maybe thats the "new build"
[Touch HD Android Development] imtiyazee:
Only scanny can tell what's in the new build for us.
[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
new build

hi scanny

Any plans of a realease with the new build?

Can I use the new build from http://htcandroid.xland.cz/XDANDROID.4.02.10.7z with your rootfs and conf?

I use partitions.

Do you know if there are any changes in rootfs in new build?
[Touch HD Android Development] [SP]JESTER:
Worked great on a CDMA RAPH800 touch pro, used the zimage from 2/3 on it and got a internet connection actually! Thanks for the rom it rocks, testing the new 2/4 zimage as we speak

[Touch HD Android Development] brodos123:
What was causing the freezing??

Was it the kernel?

since this is fixed, I dont need WM:D

Is it possible to get a system.sqsh that only have the core apps? Or can I just use the system.sqsh from http://htcandroid.xland.cz/XDANDROID.4.02.10.7z ?

Thanks scanny!!
