I've had to stop using FRX04. I'm not really sure if there is an easy solution to my issues. I started using last week. Seemed to work good the first couple of days. Monday morning I had the SoD for the first time. Now, the phone starts up very slow. So I call VM, things speed up. But after a couple of hours the phone will stop going into "Sleep" mode. Then I'll have a problem with the "Phone" part. Today I missed a call because it never rang. When I tried to call VM it never dialed. I couldn't stop the call. It did let me do a regular "Shut down" by holding the power button. This happend Monday also so I've been running winmo since. Today I thought I would give it another try, but it did the same thing. I'm on call this week so I really can't have it not working. Unless there is a simple file update, I doubt I will mess with it anymore this week.

I'm not over clocking or anything. Running an early AT&T Tilt 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toadlife:
I'm having this exact issue. Running FRX04 using the 2/2 wistilt2 kernel.

What kernel are you running?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Eodun:
All of you have to understand that is an under development project, something not for daily work or fully reliable yet. So go ahead, wait until it's more advanced.

are you using frx04 or froyox?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] radcpuman:
I'm still running the stock FRX04 from 1/23.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I don't think this bug would be kernel related, but I'm not positive.

Have you both tried a new data.img? I know others have said that it has caused issues with calls, for whatever reason that file just seems to get messed up after so long. Deleting it (and letting Android create a new one on the next boot) fixed their problems...

Please try this, and let us know how it works. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ghost13:
have you guys tried resizing your data.img as well? i changed mine to 1 gig and hardly ever get a sod now:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] blisteringblue:
I've exactly the same phone as you and trying the 1246 kernel hasn't stopped the freezing. Currently going back to 1226.

I'm only experimenting with Android though, I can't use it full time for Bluetooth in the car and Exchange Activesync for work.

It's getting close though, and who knows I may get Android fulltime without buying that Desire Z ;-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rpierce99:
Exchange Activesync works fine, I use it every day.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] blisteringblue:
I know it works, just saying with needing bluetooth for the car (as mobile) I might as well leave it on winmo and play with the android out of hours.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
I've had to give up on that kernel too and go back to November 24th (1226) :-( I was having to reset from SOD or freezing about 4 times a day or more.

Sigh... we'll just have to wait our turn to be shown some of the WisTilt2 loving I guess!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] radcpuman:
How do you do that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] VDubGli:
My phone freezes right after it says booting linux with the newest version. I tried both the cab and .rar both resulting in the same freezing problem. Help?

Edit: the cab doesnt even install all the way. It gets about 1/8 installed then says it cannot install.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nagi603:
Been using this project in an off-again-on-again scheme from when I got my rhod210.

I'm still with the blazin build, but tried the new FRX04 kernel with it. Love the keyboard lights, but as I did not use android more than a couple of hours at a time, I can't say a thing about battery life. It does seem a tad faster, but that may be placebo.

I did try the full FRX04 build but that had problems with twitter acc and seemed to be just way more sluggish. Could have been due to background sync, but I did not have enough time to fully testdrive it. Still, amazing work!

Just a quick question: where was the home button moved to, as the top power down was changed? ?_?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] skimike02:
Go to spare parts - end button behavior - set to home key. Try searching next time. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nagi603:
I did search. (Home button FRX04, Home FRX04 does not yield any usable result in this forum) Still, thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rpierce99:
What you likely experienced with the sluggishness is referred to as the system_server bug, it plagues me on just about every boot, but it's easily solved by calling your voicemail for a second.

Home Button Options

You have 3 options currently. The easiest, but perhaps most limited of the three, is the one that was suggested. It's just a matter of changing the setting within android. Two more complete, but also more complicated options involve replacing your rootfs image. Unlike the first option they'll give you the recent apps list on a long press, but you won't have an end call button any more. One of them is in the rootfs I've put up here on xda. (See my New Rhodium Key Maps & Layouts thread.) The other is in Manekineko's rootfs on ppcgeeks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
I have two little problems that I did some searching on the XDADevelopers forums and came up with no results. I don't know if it is because I am bad at searching or anything, but they are simple issues. I have a Tilt2.

1) I was looking for a way to edit the home tabs on FRX04, because when I was using BLAZN, I had the accessibility to edit the homepage, and the available tabs on there.

2) Also on BLAZN, I had a piece of software that was like a file explorer that I used to install applications from, but on FRX04, there is no software. Anyone mind shooting me something that says otherwise or someway that I can install a app to do this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Both of the things you describe are 3rd party apps - as in not part of AOSP.

1) is "LauncherPro".

2) is probably "Astro File Manager" - there's several others, I know of a popular one called "oi FileManager" or something. There's several others... search on the market ;).

All of these apps (and more!) are found on the Android market.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] coolwater22:
well i use a rootfs that i got at a different thread(cant remember where,i think at ppc geeks) and im able to get recents apps while holding power button and home by just clicking power, and the end button still works while using that as my power off button

Today i had runnend android for a few hours and my battery was 40% in WM i think, when i pulled my phone out of my pocket my phone was off. When I tried to start it up it popped op: "Htc Touch pro 2: And the black screen with the 'red numers' but it wouldn't load WM 6.5 custom energy 2.5.

When i came home i put the AC adapter in my phone and it was charging. After 10 min i tried to start it up and it worked! (i was a little scared).

IM interested in what the problem was. Did android drainend my battery soo hard that it wouldn't boot WM anymore? Is this harmfull?

(I saw a few topics from people that put there usb charger in their phone when they were in android. And it bugged hard. But I only pulled the phone out of my pocket)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] quato79:
Battery drain

No problems with this,it already happened to my phone 3 times,just Android still doesn't go full sleep and drains battery to 0%,so you must charge it at least 20-30 min before it wakes up in WinMo...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 1jaxstate1:
The answer is yes. I just let it charge for about 10 minutes. I haven't seen side effects to this though.

To conserve on battery life, switch off GPS and location based service. I'm able to run Andriod all day but doing this.

Reefer, did you ever figure out a 'safe' overclock speed (one that doesn't make it sleep to death?)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] StrappingYL:
I'm just curious: when you developers have finished implementing OpenGL ES, how significant will the performance be in Android? I love the aesthetics, but the screen transitions and the drag-able (my word synthesis) overhead seems to stutter. Is it possible to tell how much more smoothly these will be after the OpenGL ES starts to work?

P.S. You guys make it worth having a WM device. My appreciation can't be converted into monetary units as of yet (I'm a budding mathematician dragged down by college loans at the moment). However, if I could convert that appreciation, you'd each have a Rolls, lol.

Thank you,

dp

EDIT: I would also like to ask a question that relates to the above poster: is it possible to overclock the device ourselves? I noticed the overclock was sacrificed for wifi. Is there a registry entry to modify in order to do this myself, or is it only possible to change in the developmental stage of Android?

Again, thanks

There is a bug where the radio seems to just decide to stop working, perhaps you're hitting this bug.

Loosing information on booting back into Android

I had setup the Exchange account info and had synced my calendar and contacts but after rebooting into windows and going back into Android, I noticed that my exchange info was lost but my calendar and contacts were there?

Also, I had to re-install weather app (fancy widget) again on reboot and marketenabler and couple of other apps. It seems to get messed on reboot.

How to get around the above?

Thanks!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
Great!! Thanks a lot!!

I'm very satisfied with this release. The phone is running fine and stable.

Games are much faster with frxo4 and the new kernel / rootfs.

Ok, camera and BT are not working, but who cares. Just a matter of time :)

Battery life is very very good, just one problem:

After playing music via the android musicplayer (hometab),

my phone won't go to sleep. The LED is flashing from orange to green :confused:.

Have to restart android.

Otherwise the phone is sleeping like a baby. And waking up without problems (it takes longer sometimes, but it is waking up).

I'm using the test kernel (2/2/11), the rootfs from F22 (2/6/11), overclocked it and i expanded my data.img to 1.2GB.

My startup.txt:

set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 2292

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline

"lcd.density=240 msmvkeyb_toggle=off force_cdma=0 gsensor_axis=2,1,3 pm.sleep_mode=1 rel_path=andboot hw3d.force=1 physkeyboard=rhod100_de

acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=786432"

boot

Does it matter which WinMo rom is flashed? I'm using the Energy Rom (01/26/11) with WinMo 6.5.X.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jchutch2:
Your camera isn't working? Are you using the attached camera kernel (1232 I believe)?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Cam only works on a certain testing kernel, that code isn't committed yet. See viruscrazy's thread here.

I'd recommend removing the OC, and perhaps you'll have to kill that task after you're done with it - normally you shouldn't need to do that, but not all apps are respectful of the sleep state...

Also, if you have GPS enabled it kills sleep. Not sure about using netloc (aka cell tower location) as it doesn't work for my phone :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] stinebd:
Cell location is sleep-safe.

Anyway, Gingerbread is gonna need rewrites for both sensors and GPS so maybe the sleep issue will be fixed for that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
It's ok for me, if i want to hear some music, I'll use WinMo, so thats ok.

GPS is not enabled, because it uses more battery and i don't need it atm.

I'll stay with the kernel for now, waiting for WisTilt2 to release another kernel.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Heh, I think a lot of people are. It seems the panel collapse/wake code is "finished", he's starting to look at expanding this to the AUO panel/RHOD100 folks. I was testing with him last night, but the results were not good. Hence no release today :p. Soon hopefully!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Hooray hooray (not the no good results bit)! We AUO people are a teeny bit envious!

About the GPS and sleep thing. I don't disable my GPS - it stays off when there isn't a location aware app, it comes on when there is. But my phone sleeps ok - green light on, battery life with normal usage and 5 email accounts syncing of about half a day, which I don't think is unusual if you remember back to the bad old days of November last year where AUO users remain!

So is GPS not being disabled causing me to not sleep properly, or does it make no difference as my old kernel and AUO panel don't sleep properly anyway?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
Good to hear :) I'll keep my fingers crossed ;)

2 minutes ago my phone had a strange behavior :(

WiFi on, phone sleeping. My wife is calling me, phone wakes up as usual.

Suddenly the speaker turned on and i saw the xdandroid startup sequence?!

But i could still talk with her.

After that it restartet and now its sleeping again, working as nothing happend.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Naadi900:
Last time i ran android i was able to run Wistilts kernel just fine on my rhod100.. not sure if it's auo panel tho.. can't check now cause phone is still in repairs, on its way back :) But what is your problem with recent kernels? For me 1253 and possibly earlier kernels the wifi broke, but in wistilts it is functioning, that's why I used his :)

Read on irc that there never rhod100 testers on the channel, so i'll hang out there when i get mine back in case some testing needs to be done!

Looking forward to the near endless battery life haha!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
GPS or cell-tower location...? GPS definitely breaks sleep on my phone, no matter what kernel I use.

What system image are you running?

I would say you do not have an AUO panel... WisTilt2's newest public kernel has no panel detection, and only works for the EID panels.

Not all the 100's seem to have the AUO panel, but a majority seem to.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
GPS - When I use a location aware app (google search, maps etc) GPS turns on, when I exit back to desktop, it goes off.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oh yes, this is status quo - the GPS indicator turns off in the notification area, but the phone will not sleep. So turn on GPS, go use Google Maps, then go back to the home screen. GPS icon should disappear from the notification bar, but if you try to put the phone to sleep it will not be able to... Always orange LED.

Can we verify? Go to Settings -> About Phone -> Scroll allllll the way down to the bottom. What does it say in "Build Number"?

AFAIK the reset within Android issues have been fixed since we disabled JIT. I used to get that all the time until we disabled JIT...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
GPS and sleep is definitely a userland issue, not kernel. On tiad8's FroyoX I ran the same kernels and had no sleep issue with GPS on. On FRX04 it's an issue, GPS on == no green light.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Indeed. As stinebd said earlier, lots of libs to rewrite for GB... So hopefully we can squash the bug with GB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] manekineko:
Very interesting, first time I heard of that. You're 100% sure?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
Yep, 100% sure.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] großa:
Sure. It says FRX04. (JIT?)

Edit:

How do i get into the recovery mode? I want to try another wpa_supplicant.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Well, what do you know, it seems you are right! BUT - I'm not convinced this was the case with the November 24th kernel I was using up until I put the AUO kernel on. However, I'm not going back to check now as I want to see how this kernel works.

The reason I don't think it was like this with the old kernel is that with the new one, after GPS has been used the only way to put the phone to sleep is to disable 'Use GPS for location' option. Just pressing the menu key when GPS has been used is enough to wake it up. This is why I think it can't have worked like this before, else I think I'd have noticed the screen turning on without pressing the right buttons.

But I might be wrong!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Heh, don't sound so surprised dude! :p

I'm pretty sure this no-sleep GPS thing is related to libgps. We'll just have to wait and see tho.

You can see if JIT is enabled (it shouldn't be on FRX04...) if you have adb, "adb logcat |grep -i jit" <--- if you use Windows this probably won't work. I guess you could dump the logcat and just search it lol. I swear this issue only happened with JIT enabled... I don't know what else would be causing it, as I experienced that same issue when JIT was on... completely disappeared with JIT off.

Oh, for recovery mode. That's only for native Android devices, and really doesn't apply since we're running this thing off the SD!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Oops. It is easy to forget that the tone of voice you use when you type isn't always the tone of voice used when the words are read! If they were, you'd have heard a sort of complimentary 'of course you were right, I should never have doubted you' sort of message :)

I've gone back to the old kernel (as the new one needed resetting anyway), and it was the same for the old kernel after all! Back to the new one again!

Good news...Android is officially my default OS

I want to inform everybody that I was able to use the FRX04 on my TP2 for more than one week without SOD or big problems (you can check the run time showed in the picture), but there are some issues which I would like to tell here hopefully will be usefull for the developers:

1- After the first boot, the APN was working perfectly after configuring it, but after one day of using, the device started to freeze 30 seconds after booting up, so I was able to be fast enough and reach the menu and disable it. After that it worked normally.

2- Sometimes when I have an incoming call, I can't hear the caller nor he can hear me, so I have to activate the speaker so we both can hear each other, then deactivate the speaker and back to the internal speaker and continue talking normally.

3- Lagging happened about 3 times but as soon as I received a call or made one it's ok again.

4- I used the Wifi normally without any problem, surfed the net and went to market and downloaded lot of programms and games also uninstalled some, I confirm there was no problem in this issue.

Finally I restarted the mobile today afternoon to check if there will be any problem after rebooting, it still work normally, now I'm waiting to the camera and blutooth to be done by the proffs. Thanks to everyone and specially to those who helped me with their advice and answers.;)
