[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Star-Lite:
I just managed to flash my phone via an old 1GB SD-Card, but the power button and reset button are still not working, also not working after another hard reset.

The problem with the power button is that the screen does not come out of power-saving mode, audio does stop & resume when I press the power button, the screen stays black tho.

The power button problem seems to be solved in the newest android version, but unfortunately that wont start due to the error I've posted about above... :mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] terta:
uhm, sorry, with my sentence on the LED I was not referring to the LED state while being in Android. I was rather trying to say that after going back to WinMo, its not just the display not wakin' up but also the status LED staying dark (althogh the phone charges).

and since then:

- I did a hard reset, but it did not help

- I re-flashed the ROM (which was stock ROM anyway), but it did not help

- I had taken off the battery, and now as I came back from watching a good movie, I give it a try ... but it did not help.

I'll try one more thing, which is described here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=649191

will give you an update.

UPDATE: no effect after running the mentioned utility (which should format the flashdrive) and re-flashing a ROM, same problem exists
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Star-Lite:
Then it seems were having exactly the same problems :(

I'll let you know if I manage to get everything working again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
Right, I think I can see the problem now. (even if the reset button is really weird). The only dev with the needed knowledge isn't here right now. But he already broke his own microp's firmware (the thing that seems broken for you), and fixed it, so he'll be able to publish his fix I guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Star-Lite:
That sounds promising!

Which dev is it, and when will he be back? :)

I'll keep a close eye on his re-appearance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rogerjg:
Same problem here with the bad kernel. Power button not working, soft-reset button not working, led's not working. Also, screen brightness cannot be adjusted in WM anymore. Get errors cannot boot android no matter what build, kernel. If screen goes out during call it will not come on even though phone is on.

Cold boot with battery removed 15 minutes had no effect.

I am afraid of doing the task 29 thing because if it doesn't work I am unable to get back to bootloader because even my soft-rest button does not work. Actually it does but the phone comes back on after soft reset with no screen. I guess bootloader probably comes up but I just can't see it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
Captnoord, he is a raphael dev. And I don't know when he'll come back. Theorically he comes back everyday, but I haven't seen him today.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] terta:
don't do Task 29 - it has no harm on the phone, but it's of no use either... I tried it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] terta:
yepp, the new 2.07 official ROM also flashes the radio. but that also does not help :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sd73ta:
Not sure if this is relevent but my phone was throwing a **** fit today. the screen wouldnt wake and the soft reset button wouldnt work. I task 29, flashed stock and custom roms, new radios, hard reset. i tried a new sd and sim card. the problem ended up being the hardspl. I would have never guessed it would cause all those problems. Some one finally suggested i try and re run the hardspl and bingo everything was fine. So it wouldnt hurt to give that a try
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] contentryder:
can you mirror the rar please? im having the initrd.gz loading error

thanks!

EDIT: updated first then ran...now works! but with black screen =\

EDIT2: cancel that...android took a little time to load lol...slow card
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] terta:
thanks a lot, man!

this pretty much solves it - mines' also working now :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
Cool, no fix to write then. Put that somewhere on the wiki.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Star-Lite:
My problems seem to have been solved by reflashing hardspl as well, GOOD FIND! :D

/me is happy again :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Jekku:
I'm experiencing somewhat different problem. I had the original stock ROM, when I tried XDAndroid. Then I flashed newer stock ROM (1.84.414... or something), it ran fine for afternoon, and then one more boot for misc setting change, and it wouldn't start WinMo anymore, just kept rebooting and rebooting. After that I installed HardSPL and flashed some custom ROM, which seemed to work fine, until all of the sudden it rebooted in the middle of me reading a SMS, and started the rebooting cycle over again. Only way to recover was taking the battery out and back in and hard reset. Any idea what could cause this kind of behaviour? Could it be hardware that's got broken somehow?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pieteckhart:
Off Topic (but still cool!)

Yesterday i was at the Android Experience in Amsterdam!

i sure popped some eyes with a Rhodium running android ;)

i should have asked the HTC speaker if he could get the sound chip specifications :( :P

initrd issue

Ive a problem with the new build (2503).

after update, starting haret the phone cant access sdcard/andboot/initrd.gz so I renamed the file adding the ".gz" and it seems to work...but its correct to do that?

let me know please...

cheers!

DOH!!!!!! :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Vaxon:
Is there any chance to use Android with PIN set up on SIM card? My operator (Orange Poland) does not allow me to remove PIN number verification and therefore I'm not able to use GSM on that Android build. Thanks in advance for quick reply.

Also I'm not able to wake up the system after screen is turned of - tried to reHardSPL but did not help at all.

sd73ta:

Many thanks! Tried to find it before but it seems I'm lame searcher |-:

Just read whole topic - it seems that this solution is to Exchange only. I'm wondering if there is possibility to disable PIN request (Personal->Phone->PIN/PIN2->Require PIN when phone is used) or access Android GSM functions while PIN is present. Everytime I try to disable PIN request I receive 'Wrong PIN' message even though it's correct.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sd73ta:
here is the answer please check the wiki or search next time this has been covered before

Edit: I dont think there is a fix for that yet. I think you have no choice but to disable in winmobile or it wont work. sorry, any chance you could try a different sim?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] byuboy87:
when changing to a newer build of the android cab do i completely uninstall and just install new version? will my settings/apps be there? should i back up the android folder? i guess im askin... wat do u guys do???

---apologies in advance but i did search the forum as best i know how prior to this post (in case its already been discussed)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] joedaddy713:
When I uninstall the cab to put a newer build in it takes away everything then I just go to the marketplace press menu>my downloads and re-download everything its easy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pieteckhart:
and to make everything even more easy you could use AppBrain to browse the marketplace on your PC and sent them to your phone ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] byuboy87:
thanks guys... but after readin all the problems everybodys havin w/ the latest release i think i'll wait. thanks again...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Samich2007:
Hi i have a question,

I've downloaded the latest build, and wanted to connect to my wifi spot.

Useually I have to enter the ip address manualy, but I don't know how I can manualy put in the ip address within android. Is this possible? Otherwise I can't use it since my wifi spot won't give a ip address away automaticly.

Kind Regards,

Sami

BTW: The new build runs very fast and smooth :) Love it!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pieteckhart:
Yes :)

on the wifi settings menu, press the Menu hardware key and choose Advanced. check the static ip checkbox... i think you will manage from there.

Good luck!

Problem with process.android.acore

Hey all, I did a search of this thread and all of XDA and it seems that nobody else is mentioning this problem, so here goes:

I'm constantly (every 5-10 seconds) getting the error message:

"The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

It requires a Force Close. This happens when I boot the device into Android, before I even try to load anything, and sometimes before I select which home screen I would like to use, if I'm not fast enough. I also get an error message about the keyboard "Application Android keyboard (in process com.android.inputmethod.latin)is not responding." but this one I can wait or force close. This second error has been happening every time I have booted into Android, but usually will not happen more than once if I decide to Force Close it.

With the acore error, the phone is unusable, as it can't sync, use phone, or do anything for more than 10 seconds without constant interruption. The only thing that I changed before the last time I shut down Android and rebooted WM is that I uninstalled a few apps that I tried and didn't want (Weatherbug, Redbox Codes, and maybe a weather channel one) and I set the keyboard not to autocomplete, since I thought that may have been related to the error, and it was constatly suggesting and autocompleting names from my address book for any word I wanted to type.

Any insight on how to fix this problem would be much appreciated. Sorry if this got long, but I thought it would help to be as descriptive as possible.

btw, I have the latest release (I installed for the first time less than a week ago) and I've tried using the update utility in case there was a bugfix or something of that nature.

Thanks in advance.

What class is your SD card?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Samich2007:
Thanks :)

But menu hardware key? :P Don't know which one xD
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] davidebeatrice:
...the windows flag button under the screen...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Samich2007:
Nice thank you :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Star-Lite:
Actually, the problems have been solved a few builds ago already. I have been running the latest build on my RHOD100 last night for a few hours and it performed admirably. It was smooth, fast and very usable. The battery started out at 48% when I booted android and when I booted back into WM about 5 hours later it had 5% left after quite regular use (internet, marketplace etc). I had to reboot once because I had too many programs open and it hung up my phone.

I am very impressed with the current state, just a few more hardware support issues to solve (sound, battery meter, camera, GPS, bluetooth) before it's gonna be my main O/S :D

Fail to Load andorid

I have the tmobile touch pro 2, i installed the rom to my media card and when i tried to load the program i get this mesage. " Failed to load to file \storage card\andboot\initrd.gz". What does this mean? I followed the steps correctly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JBS2:
Asked before many times.. Just rename initrd to initrd.gz
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] davidebeatrice:

Hi,

i've got my wifi now worked thanks to you guys :)

But i have another question. When I want to connect to the android market, it said failed to connect... :(

Is the adroid market availble on the tp2 or not?

Thank you!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheQuadrupleB:
Ok, but what exactly do you mean - should I get rid of anything else on it (WM programs, android programs, etc) or is there a specific path I should clean up? I have a lot of music, docs and apps on it from WM, so I'd rather not get rid of all that if possible.

I think someone else was asking - it's a SanDisk 8gb Class 6 microSD.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Star-Lite:
The market is fully working, so there must be some sort of connection issue on your end. Can you browse the internet via the browser without problems?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JBS2:
Make a complete backup to your computer and format the SD card. Then try installing Android again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Samich2007:
Yes no problem with browsing over the internet with the android browser...

The text said: server error occured. Try again, or cancel.... :( :S
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheQuadrupleB:
A couple questions first... :)

Are all of the Android files within the \andboot folder? There are also some other .REC files in the root of the sd card, are those Android related?

When I make this full backup, I don't want any of the old Android files.

Also, do you have any idea what would have cause this error to start happening? I was running Android fine for several days with no prior problems, then yesterday they started all of a sudden. It would be good to know what caused this, as I don't want to have to reformat my card every few days.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
REC files are "lost" files. Most of the time it's safe to remove it, if you lose no data, you ca delete them. You can also check their sizes. Normal ones are 8K.

Corrupted files, unsupported filenames mostly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rossle12:
Where's the download link?

I can't spot it..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ryotgz:
First page. Two big buttons that say Download. I don't think you could miss it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] :
Are you on a "open" wifi network (aka, no encryption: WEP or WPA)?

Looks like you cannot connect to the Market on an "open" wifi link. Atleast I see that problem. I then disable Wifi and use the Data connection to connect and download Market apps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TheQuadrupleB:
Mine are all 32KB, I left them off the phone and everything seems fine.

So, do you think that uninstalling those applications may have happened incorrectly and somehow corrupted files/names? I think this must be it since I wasn't mucking around in the file explorer or anything.

In any case, I did a clean install of Android onto the card, and everything looks like it is working, as I expected it would.

An unrelated thing I noticed is that the in-call volume is very low, even when turned all the way up. Is this a normal thing with this rom or is there some setting to be fixed?

Also, wanted to say that everyone working on this is doing an awesome job, keep up the good work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] suree_n:
Splendid !

It's my first time installing the latest cab [3/25] to my brand new rhodium. My phone became Nexus 1. Everything work just fine, i.e. phone call, wifi, market, easy to power off, etc.

Very impressive. Thank you very much to all developers.

By the way, I need further help for the following questions

1. I got Thai fonts, but don't know how to install into the systems. Anyone can

help ?

2. Is there any case that we need to do hard reset the android ? and if so, how

and will it destroy the winmo data in the sd card ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
It's better than N1 ! :p (it depends on what you do with it.)

"Hardreset" android would be just removing data.img, which won't change anything for winmo.

Concerning fonts, I'm starting thinking dabout a kitchen since many people wants weird stuff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Samich2007:
Yes... its an open connection...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] GiantsFan91:
"failed to load to file \storage card\andboot\initrd.gz". what does this mean? yes i replace with initrd.gz

still got error. i already update..no good.

the carrier is tmobile.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] AdamWill:
Eh? As far as makinus and I can make out, the 3D doesn't work on Topaz / Rhodium yet. If you get a blank splash screen, that means it ain't working. If you got it working...how? :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
I've actually been cooking all day, so I didn't have time to post an update. if you wait long enough on that black screen android will boot (it did for me anyways) unfortunately the network connection keeps giving me force close errors, so you can't get past the first setup screen. The screen transition and button button up/down effects were SUPER smooth though. Can't wait until these drivers work correctly its gonna make a world of difference.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
it works for me (still using an OLD data.img).. but yea, the boot animation is gone.. it takes around 5 minutes for Android to start.. and yea, HW3D doesn't work yet.. so the big things that needs to be fixed for the RHOD is Sound (speaker), accelerometer, HW3D, HW acceleration, opengles, wifi, and bluetooth

Rhodium VS Motorola Limestone Keyboard

After using this extensively today on my TP2 for emails etc it finally became too much for me...LOL

Android 2.01 or 2.1 or whatever is in this build has an awesome UI interface/experience.

Don't know how to describe it other than with android - everything just works in a very intuitive way.

And it seems to handle multitasking very nicely.

I can't even bare to look at or work with WM anymore now...

And imagine this build doesn't even have full hardware support on the Rhodium platform yet it's so much better than WM...

So today I decided I would buy a Motorola Milestone.

As is usual with any of my buying decisions I needed to physically feel the product first - So I took a trip to Tottenham Court Road (London) to see and test out the keyboard on the Milestone.

The only words I could use to describe the Milestone Keyboard ironically is EPIC FAIL in comparison to the keyboard on my touch pro2.

The milestone keyboard is terrible!!

Otherwise the milestone hardware is top notch.

Now I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place as I've been spoiled by experiencing android on my TP2.

(What to do??)

Despite this I still may have to get the Milestone... as nothing is on the market at the moment that features android 2.1, 3.7inch WVGA, fast processor and a physical keyboard....

Anyone else with similar experiences?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cookzitall:
3D hardware question!!!

First off...I'm. Writing this from android build! Which is awesome..with that said...

The last android build was said to have working 3d hardware..

Someone on here. ...dnt recall who...posted that if you dnt get the nexus boot image then the hardware doesn't work...and others said that the 3d hardware infact does not work for Rhoduim n Topaz....

Now at first boot with the newest build (2.7) I. Did not get the nexus 1 boot image..so I figured that the posts were right...

Second boot I GOT THE NEXUS ONE BOOT IMAGE AND PHONE LOADED ANDROID JUST FINE....I. downloaded a couple games off of market that were advertised as 3d games..n they all work rather well...so am I missing something?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] palosjr:
if i wanted to go about changing the Android build from Manup456 Eclair build to Cyanogens builds (more stable and faster) how would i go about doing so? ive done all kinds of things with Android, is it all part of the boot.img still?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jsmith8858:
I have forwarded this message to all devs working on this project to make them fully aware of the consequences of their slow progress. I suspect this should provide them with sufficient motivation to finally stop goofing off and to get everything working properly.

Thanks!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] AdamWill:
qazzi: why not just wait a bit until we get more stuff fixed on tp2, or better phones come out? I doubt it'll be long before there's something with a snapdragon and a decent keyboard, and we should have tp2 working a lot better in a few weeks since phh will be getting one (thanks to matt).

bobbymanifesto: nothing yet, really. I sent phh some traces of the power management stuff but apparently they're a pain to read.

How long until you think the camera and sound will be working??

and overall, when running this on the touch pro2, how good is it on the battery life of the tp2?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DrG:
GoFck, I had the same problem on TMo, however, when I went to auto update the 2nd time, I only checked the box for initrd.gz. Then it worked. However, now it is booting and there was a bunch of code scrolling. When it gets to " r4:00000000" it just sits there and after 5 minutes, 10 lines of code ending in the same. How long should this take?
