I saved a copy of my "last" known good Android, so I can flip back whenever I want (rename the directories).

Then I extracted the latest RAR (as of 20+change hours) FRX03.

I then told haret to boot, with only CDMA, HW3D, N. Am. Dial checked, using the boot loader. My phone sat for a while (assuming it was making a new data.img. Then, it went into this AWESOME loader screen!

That sat for a while. After that finished, my the Android OS reset itself (not the phone, it was like it dropped out of Android, then reloaded). After that, my phone was SLUGGISH. So, I let it sit until the green LED came on.

I then installed Advanced Task Killer from the Market. Ran that. Phone was still sluggish. I noticed that Google Maps was updating. So, I let that finish. Finally, I checked again, still sluggish.

So, I booted back into WinMO. Went back into Android. Still sluggish.

----I'll try OC'ing to 700, which is where I used to run it. ----

I tried to OC to 700 It runs just as fast as before. It seems a little smoother...I'm not sure if it's the lack of apps (I did a clean wipe, no backups, no restores, etc.). I mean, not a lot, but enough to make a little bit of a difference.

I'll report back if I get any improvement.

Question: Do we still have to check the box for HW3D? Or do we get that for free now?

battery drains very fast

Hi guys,

I'm trying the lastest froyo reference now and I have to say I like what i see and get, No too many bugs or freezes or anything like that. The only thing that keeps me from using it daily is the battery drainage.

I think the maximum i can get out of my touch pro 2 is about 4 to 5 maybe 6 hours. And then it's dead.

1) is this the 3G ?

2) is this normal ?

3) is there anything I can do about it?

wifi wasn't on while testing.

If there are any tips or tricks I should use. Please tell me.

With kind regards.

Bert
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
If you have all radios off and leave the phone in sleep mode 100% of the time you'll get a lot better battery life.

However, if you use the phone AT ALL, that's probably about normal. High usage, less than 4 hours is pretty typical.

How to apply BLAZN Theme to new FROYO FRX03 !!!

I just applied BLAZN THEMA to NEW FROYO FRX03 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here HOWTO for linux user:

1. download BLAZN REALESE and extract it

2. go to folder andboot, you find there file system.ext2

3. mount this *.ext2 file

sudo mount system.ext2 /mnt -o loop

in /mnt is the mounted image

4. go to folder mnt/framework on your PC

5. you see here file named framework-res.apk this is the actual Theme BLAZN !!!!!!!

6. copy this file to another place on your PC

7. unmount system.ext2

sudo umount /mnt

8. Put your Phone with new froyo to USB and mount now the froyo system.ext2 like I said before

9. as you can already think :) REPLACE the framework-res.apk with one from BLAZN

10. unmount system.ext2 and remove your phone from USB !

And that's all !!!!!! You have now new FROYO FRX03 with BLAZN theme !

It took me about 3 min time and I'm suuuuper happy :) Now have full working brand new Froyo with my lovely BLAZN Theme :)

Please tell me if it worked for all BLAZN fans !!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SpunkyIceke:
Seriously? With my TP2 in windows mobile with energy's roms I'm able to get about two to three days thats like 72 hours worth of my phone while using it more than in Android.

So there is no way the battery life can get better?

Too bad :s

But I thank you for your anwer!

Kr,

Bert
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ironhead65:
Ok, I haven't tried a LOT of the features, but now that I have disabled almost all the animation stuff (to match what I used to use), it seems REALLY fast. Especially since it's overclocked.

Prior to this build, if I had an update going in the market, the phone was about useless until it was done. Now, I was updating 3 things at once, from the market, while playing around with settings, menus, etc. It responds very well now.

When the phone is idle, and I do something (with the settings the way I used to have them, where most of the "flashy" stuff is turned off), it is fast, as in faster then SPB Mobile Shell on WinMO fast.

I like it!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I didn't say there's no way battery life can get better... just that's the current state of Android. Quit comparing it to WinMo, this project is not designed to replace WinMo. Not even close. Perhaps one day, but not in its current state.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SpunkyIceke:
Okay thanks ;)

I'll try not to compare too much ...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sad0felix:
Hi everyone, first post for me on this thread and, magic of the magic, maybe because I read TFT(hread), TFF(aqs), TFW(iki), etc. etc., first, everything is working extremely well for me.

Of course, considering that all this is a gift from the gods of obscure coding/patching/cooking, some glitch once in a while has to be taken into account.

So, first of all, thanks every dev for the amazingly good work.

Second, I write down my situation, as reference for other users:

- HTC Touch Pro 2 (italian), rhod100_it

- latest stock WM6.5 ROM, 2.07.408.1 (published on 2010.03.18)

- Xdandroid BLAZN 2.2 (stock, updated as follows)

- Kernel: zImage_20101023_014031 (with its modules-2.6.27.46-01210-g0b5afe8)

- Rootfs: rootfs-20101115-42b44e2

I am currently using this commandline options (in startup.txt, in this exact order):

lcd.density=240

msmts_calib=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78

msmvkeyb_toggle=off

pmem.extra=1

gsensor_axis=2,-1,3

force_cdma=0

pm.sleep_mode=1

hw3d.force=1

physkeyboard=rhod100_it

The grey entries are pretty standard ones, so can be ignored.

- About G Sensors, I really care more about the correct leveling for leveling apps than correct display flipping. This setup works better for me (horizontal screen ok, vertical is upside down, I keep auto display rotation disabled).

- About the power management sleep mode, I found out 1 to be as stable as 2 for me, while saving some battery. But auto update of email accounts (I have 1 corporate exchange, 2 imaps and 1 pop3) doesn't work with 1 (neither push, nor with 5 mins) while at sleep. Never tried the feared 0 setting.

Did you try pusing the "Volume Down" button just after replying to the incoming call?

Does this work for you?

I had this problem (I could hear the other side but my mic was shut off so they heared just silence) and struggled a lot searching before finding the right tip lost in this huge thread.

This should be posted as a "try this" in the very first page ...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Great trick my friend! :) That is what me and arrrrgh were going to do if we cannot fix the clock the correct way. What you did there was made a hybrid of frx00B and frx03.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] d0nate110:
Exactly :)

I must just find the PNG file for background of Notication field or what its called. It has to be transparent but some Froyo XML Setting just missing. So I must find the right file for it an make it transparent in GIMP by my self!

any ideas what it can be ?

statusbar_background.9.png

status_bar_header_background.9

status_bar_item_app_background_normal.9

status_bar_item_background_normal.9

I dont know...

EDIT: Sorry, I didn't realized that you are actually the thread maker :) At this point I want to thank you personally for your great work and wish I could help you with donating, but I'm student and don't have any money :) If you just wait 2 years after graduating I'll get a job and pay you for this amazing work :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sad0felix:
Good work.

However, forgive me for doing this, but I think this will help people sparing time going back to download the old BLAZN.

So I followed your how-to, zipped the file and upped it here.

So, people, you are just 1 mount away from BLAZN on your 2.2.1!

(and a lot of Mb less to download again).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] d0nate110:
Its really no problem at all. I was just surprised by my self how easy it was :)

But if you look at my signature you'll see that I'm so crazy that I just couldn't wait 30 days to have my eye-candy for Froyo. :) I did it for my self and for all who also can't wait 1 month :) Personally for me these measly 100 MB for BLAZN were totally worth it :)

But I have an issue with background, that even after applying transparency to the right background file the actually background is still not transparent... :)

Any ideas ?

EDIT:

BTW my hybrid is actually better for me, cuz it does have all languages I need.

In BLAZN were just 5 main languages... If you make this 2.2.1 Release with multi language support (or with extra Russian :) ) then I definitely will download the new one :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lilchicano:
yeah my student home also has wifi in WEP and they have it hidden, last time i tried to hack it with my "adults rooms" laptop i ended up messing up her wifi connection:p

but its fixed again so ill go for take 2 in a couple of days now that my friend is gonna pay her a visit (he's a programer so we might get it)

IP address of most common routers: 192.168.2.1

but then u get prompt with a username and pass which usually is "admin" but they got smart and changed it in my student home

I've just download the new build, but I see in the STARTUP CONFIG only "RHOD100(uk)" :confused:

Does it meens that RHOD100(fr) is not inclued ?

The source from majster-pl inclued uk/fr/de ! Why all the 3 are not present ! Too sad :(

I'll test wifi tonight, and try to mount rootfs.img on my linux :)

can't use Yozgatg's Dual Boot for latest android release. is there a registry edit i should know about or we have to wait for yozgatg's to update his software.

how do you delete posts in this forum!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ace10134:
So what do you think about making it possible to update new releases over-the-air? All it'd require is a WinMo application similar to AppToDate, where it would check a file server for a new version of the Android files that you update, and then download them over the old! It'd be pretty neat. I haven't figured out how to do that through AppToDate though...but it definitely can be pulled off.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ahhhhwhoa:
Is anyone else having issues downloading from the market with just Wifi? I have a Tmobile TP2 unlocked on ATT network with working wifi, browser is good and works fine but anything I try to download from the Market says 'Starting downoad' then hangs for a few minutes and just says 'Download failed' and won't download anything? Any ideas on why that would happen I have read and haven't seen but one post about someone else having an issue and they resolved it themselves and edited their post with no info about it. :confused:

Only other issue I see is the apps that are included in the download, and inside the 'andboot' and 'AndroidApps' arent showing up anywhere in Android... Do I need to remove them from their containing folders and put them someone else for them to show up and work? Facebook being one of the ones I don't see working on here and was on past builds, and with the issue above I can't download it from the market either.

PLEASE HELP! AND THANK YOU!

I get the same thing. I can't successfully download anything over Wi-Fi on my US GSM T-Mobile TP2. I haven't honestly tried 3G yet, but my contacts seem to have synced.

At this point, it's just too buggy to use for me. It's nice to have an alternative, but it's constantly popping up and telling me about this or that process that's crashed. Which is fine, I do appreciate the work that has been done, and I am thinking of donating. Before I installed the latest (with Wi-Fi) I downloaded an overclock app that made Android a lot less laggy than it is, and if I could have an assurance that it wouldn't screw up my phone, I'd use that constantly and tell WM6.5 to perform a physical impossibility.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CB620:
Its Alot Of Progress Going On. Im Sure Everyone Will Lose Their Mind When Sound Finally Works.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ahhhhwhoa:
I haven't tried to sync contacts yet as I don't even have them all in my google mail account, but I did notice the one that I added automatically located his email addresses and added them which was done over Wifi as I am on ATT with a Tmobile unlocked phone and they use different 3g signals. So using 3g won't be an option for me which is why I am really hoping maybe I'm just doing something wrong and that's why I can't download over wifi, I don't know.

Can you tell me where the language files are stored ?

Is it just a package.apk-style or is it deep in whole system integrated ?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I'd tell you if I knew... I'm sure some amount of Googling will tell you, but I'm honestly not sure what you're looking for.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jordanthompson:
I just tried this. It helps partially:

Normally if I get an incoming call, I hear nothing and the caller hears nothing.

When I press the down volume after taking the call, I hear nothing, but the caller can hear me.

Outgoing calls work flawlessly for both normal and google voice connections.

I am running a Touch Pro2 on Sprint (CDMA).

What kernel are you using?

Did you try using different ones?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
+1 to the last post. Make sure you're fully up to date on EVERYTHING.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sad0felix:
Uh, pretty basic questions to start with :D

About the "fully up to date on everything" thing I would be careful, talking here about a Rhodium.

Being it a Sprint CDMA, I guess it's a Rhod400.

I have a Rhod100, so maybe things are different, but on mine, Haret will freeze with everything newer than 2010.10.23 kernel (014031).

That's why I keep using that one.

Cheers

You're only getting 6 hours in WinMob -- the same amount of time you'd get in Android.

It's just that 6 hours of using WinMob *feels* like 72 hours. It's torture!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sad0felix:
Umpf, sadly it actually didn't go as expected.

I used the system.ext2, cured with the BLAZN framework apk, to install a clean FRX03 2.2.1, but it went mad on audio device.

I suspect this is related to other things, so I will try again later when everything is up and running.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Every single other RHOD is fine... only the 100's fail to boot with the newest kernels. We're working on tracking that down - none of you guys help us with testing on IRC!! I swear we tested the autobl code on a 100, evidently not.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SilentO:
Anyone got the home key working?

The power key used to be the home key replacement until recent builds.

Also, has anyone got flash to work with skyfire 3.0?

Please share if you have any of these two working.

Thanks Developers. Tethering works great.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sad0felix:
I can test hundreds of kernels without going mad.

And if you need me to learn something new to get things done more efficiently, tell me where to start learning and I will do it happily.

Keep in mind that I can handle command line, but I am more a self trained admin than else.

Couple of multipurpose ubuntu LAMPs (headless) and some virtual machine for testing (yep, yankee mother company wants everything to be MS labeled).

Hey guys. I don' know where to post this but I made have importand info about 3d. Ok I did a fresh install on frx03 build. Only to see if ANGRY BIRDS LITE BETA will play. 1- didn't work. 2- try to play HOME RUN BATTLE 3D, it play but slow the graphics was not good. 3- I open system.ext2 to see what kind 3d files this build is using. Now look what I found.

I'm using the latest neopeek super froyo. So I got that build running. And try to play ANGRY BIRDS LITE BETA & it works but the graphics was not good and slow. The I try to play HOME RUN BATTLE 3D it plays but slow, graphics no good.

Now this is what I found. I think is (system/lib/egl/

libGLES_qcom.so now this file is 520kb

So I went back to my old builds and I found the same file but with 521kb.

So then I switch the files & put the one that is 521kb.

Ohh my god. 3d works incredible. ANGRY BIRSD SMOOTH AND FAST. GRAPHICS LOOK GREAT. HOME RUN SAME.

Now guys this is a question for anybody. Can someone add this file to this build frx03?. When I get home I will upload this file.

I run the Energy ROMs on my TP2, and the only way I can get over 1 day of battery life on a new battery would be to leave the phone in sleep mode. If it starts roaming or if I use the phone then I get about 4 hours. Talk time seems to use less juice than the internet.

I can't speak for anyone else but I don't believe 2-3 days is possible running the Energy ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bugmenever:
Just use ActiveSync/GoogleSync. Set up ActiveSync to use GoogleSync with your Gmail account, then they will be all backed up on Google. From there setup your email account in Android and they will all be transferred.

Warning, in WM make sure 'tasks' and 'text messages' is unchecked in the ActiveSync menu or it will fail.

Boooooooom ... and mine lasts 10 years on half charge, stock battery.

Are you kidding?

In flight mode, even my grandma could avoid peeing for 16 hours ...

A Touch Pro 2 (and I have one, Rhod100, so I know rrrreally well what I am talking about) can last 3 days only if you use it like a paperweight that can possibly handle calls, when you like.

I will tell you a super-duper secret: if you switch it off, the battery could go on for 6 months!!

Seriously.

1) What do your examples have to do with real world use of a handset?

2) What is the strange thing of discovering that a phone in flight mode doesn't slurp battery like when it's lit like a christmas tree?

Experiments with different Themes

I've experimented with different themes I found, that some time the devices just don't want to boot properly. With new Darkness theme from Reef it stacks on xandroid animation...and keeps looping it forever...

Also I found out that if you add some apps in system/app folder it'll have same effect. Too bad that the new BLAZN-Darkness-whatever Release will not have multi language support... may be I can apply this darkness theme later an my FRX03...
