It affects virtually everybody at some point... it's clearly mentioned on the opening post. You're not alone.
[Touch HD Android Development] slaming:
no its more the fact that as it gets better for you guys so that it only wakes up to power button it only gets worse for me can't the program like in winmo where pulling the stylus out wakes it if so that would be great
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
How are you managing to start winmo if the power button is broken?
[Touch HD Android Development] slaming:
the only way to get the power button working is to take the back cover off and wiggle the button for a minute then push it down i've check the button out and all seems clean so no way to fix it really. but normally with winmo i never do a battery pull always just a soft reset

Corporate calendar??

Hi all.

I've been running XDAndroid on my phone for almost a month now. It is SOOOOW much better then WinMo :p

Just a few questions I hope someone has the answer to.

1) I really need my phone to b able to pool my work calendar (outlook). The contacts and emails work fine through the accounts & sync setup, but my outlook calendar never syncs. This is no problem for my colleges with a HTC Hero. Is the outlook calendar sync part of HTC's own software?? or does enyone have a program to sync the calendar as well???

2) this is actually not inportant, I was just wondering :rolleyes:

I've seen a lot of talk about deep sleep problems, and that the LED should pulse during this. I have NEVER seen this!!! Does it work like that on blackstone at all, or has my phone just never been in deep sleep.

I get 8-10 hours out of the bettery with minimal use....

Hope you understand my questions and have some really good answers :D

Thanks.

bit of a work around but if you can get your exchange calander to sync with your google cal then everything will be added that presuming you have a google cal? i personally only use google cal and its worked with all device blackberry winmo and android, but my dad works with exchange for hiw wokr calander and he has had it syncing with winmo and iphone good, i am surprised there is nothing for exchange on android, i mean apple have worked with microsoft (their biggest competitor) to get exchange surport so why havent google?

[Touch HD Android Development] WinningDays:
The quality of the player is very random. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes i have only the sound, sometimes only the video, sometimes the video freezes and audio is fine.
[Touch HD Android Development] WinningDays:
I've read and follow that:

I'm using Glossy and it doesn't work :(

Where should i put the snd command ? At the last line of STARTUP.txt ? I've done that but it doesn't work...

Note: I tried with:

snd.force_headset

snd.force_headset=1

snd.force_headset=2

Should i call a specific number to activate the setting or calling a pal of mine is fine ?
[Touch HD Android Development] slaming:
i think you have to put it into terminal so with a terminal app type that in and it should work

Some problem with keyboard on FUZE

Hi, guys, I am running android on FUZE (GSM) but there seems to be some problems:

1. The battery drain up quickly. It seems only stand by for 12 hours, even without WIFI;

2. The (capcity) key does not work properly, especially <-, which sometimes will turn off the screen, instead step back;

3. The last thing is that it never succeeded in downloading a single application from marketplace, although it indicates downloading.

Thanks!

Screen Calibration

Android working well (The cab version V1.2 on Blackstone). Only issue for me is calibrating the screen.

I searched and searched and have tried deleting the calibration settings from the start.txt then tried to calibrate it in the 10ms you have at booting linux, but that made it worse.

I also tried calibrating in wm also made no difference.

anyone any ideas?

Is there any way to load the screen lock manually?

yeah dude i seem to be a reasonably big contributor to that anyway :D so feel free, if i ever have any other tips in other sections that you wonna add feel free. i'm kinda surprised that i can help so much i don't even use it on mine any more because of the sleep issues and me not having a working power button and i ain't a dev or nothing either. weird but then i do spend to much of my life on the internet and on these forums.
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
does that setting (snd.force_headset=2) really FORCE the headset (meaning the speaker wont work anymore) or is it just enabled so that headset is used IF plugged in?

Internet connection

Hi,

I got Android (glossy 1.81) on my o2 Touch HD now but i can't get any internet connection. I tried the o2 settings for data connection and wifi with our wlan. I can connect to wlan but at browser/marketplace i got no connection message. I also can't verify my Google account via phone. Is there a hidden button to press or check to make? Thanks for replies!
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
like i said in another thread: video playback not supported yet properly (youtube though worked sometimes partly)

feedback on screen alignment issue

OK i tried the other calibration files but same problem.

I have this problem on 1.6 and 1.2 not yet tried 1.7

This problem is highlighted much more using swype.. here is the example.

if i press say any of the middle keys e.g. T or Space bar or F then you can see the blue line begin on the Q key. This does not happen every time and happens even less if I press firmly with the stylus.

This means that somehow when i press the middle of my device the device feels as though i pressed the edge and slid over to the middle

I have no issues when using WM6.5.x

Anyone any ideas? Anyone suffering similar?

Help please.

Because, if Android screws up your phone cos it's in ROM and can't boot and theres no way to recover your phone.... you will cry.

We prefer that you moan and whinge about not in Rom, but we don't want you to cry.

There's about 10,000 users playing with this right now, do you honestly think you're the first to say "hey? why not put this in ROM?".

And do you honestly think there aren't some intelligent people who've made the RIGHT choice in deciding that it's not important (yet) ?

I wouldn't mind BUT it's in the FAQ of just about every opening post.

Update for Vodafone NL users; I have successfully 3G data connections working on my Touch Diamond (DIAM100) using the latest rootfs from http://xdandroid.southcape.org/rootfs/. Be sure to have data connection enabled in WinMo when you boot Android.

Furthermore; I have one question related to the speed of Android. Sometimes, it is _extremely_ slow. I mean, I know it's still in development and I am used to the fact that sometimes, I'll have to wait for 2-3 seconds. But every now and then, I have to wait for 30-40 seconds before Android responds. Any ideas on that?

I read somewhere that this can be due to the fact of the slowness of the SD card and it can be fixes using EXT2 file system instead of NTFS. True?

I already posted this in the Topaz thread but the Topaz Android development forum isn't the most active one to say the least. So, I guess I'll try here, for the lack of a more suitable thread...

Me and some others are having/had trouble getting any Android build to boot on our Topaz. At the moment it's just me and one other person, but other people have had the same problem in the past, unsolved.

Our device should be a normal Topa100, but for some reason it just doesn't work. At first the phone just did a soft reset after the "Booting Linux" progress bar from haret.exe, no two vibrations or anything. Shavenyaknz, the other person having this problem at the moment, posted an old zImage that got us a little further.. There's no Tux and some weird purple line on the left side, and..

Changing or formatting the SD card or flashing a different ROM didn't work. Could anyone here help? I hope it's not too hard to solve, as we're such a minority..
