go ahead and install the last update that reefer posted and you won't get your ears blown out from loud talkers, either...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mgthevisionary:
Yeah, I felt the same way about the keyboard thing. I'm pretty much a diehard about that!

But then...I gave a full touchscreen a try and...with Android OS I must say it is FAR better then I ever would have imagined, and I'm an old-schooler-keyboard-having-HTC-fanatic to the core since the 8525 days. Whats even more, the full touchscreen phone I tried out that I'm talking about...wait for it...the ARIA!!! Yep, smallest of its breed and it was so effective it still made me a new believer (plus FREE is a great price anytime).

But on the real, the Touch Pro 2 is still such a beautiful phone i would love to see a 3 come out soon. We'll see...but maybe try o full touch screen out. You may be surprised.

Running Froyo 2.2 on US Cellular HTC TP2 - WinMo 6.5

Hi all, this is my first post here. First off, I have to give a big thank you to MSullivan who helped me through PMs in getting Android running on my handset. I am jacked about now being able to dual boot WinMo and Froyo! I had several issues getting things to work for me so I will tell you what I had trouble with and what I did (following MSullivan's instructions) to fix it:

1. The Linux boot phase failed. I moved all files except wallpaper and the like, out of the folder that they were found in and into the root of the SD card.

2. The boot then hung at the XDANDROID spash screen. I formatted my SDCard then reinstalled everything. Voila! It loaded!

3. Things seemed a bit slow, so I bought a $30 8GB high speed SD card. That improved things further. I also upped the clock speed to 786Mhz.

So far, it has been very stable. I've shut it down and restarted several times without incident. Any other US Cellular users out there with the Touch Pro 2 have got to get this set up! Don't forget the GenY dual boot, it is a very handy utility. Thanks everyone that has spent arseloads of time grinding out this software! You efforts are much appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] knappad:
You guys have sure come through, I am loving the newest release. I have noticed an issue when in a call it seems to bounce from speaker phone to just the headset speaker. The other thing is that when selecting the speaker phone the mic stops working, but when I place it back on the headset speaker the mic then works. Again this release is outstanding. THANKS FOR ALL THE HARD WORK!!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Mr. Equalizer:
Hi,

im using Android on my Touch Pro2 for a long time.

Currently i´am using Android 2.2 from 8/30 its really good, the only problem i have is that the keyboard is doing strange things ;)

I have a German Touch Pro2 with an German Keyboard, and if i want to write an "ü" its always Uppercase, "ö" "ä" are working in lowercase and uppercase, but "ü" is always uppercase. Is this known?

EDIT: i made a mistake "ö" is always uppercase, too.

the second thing i miss is the "sym" button, where i get all my special symbols under windows mobile, is this android related or only unimplemented at the moment?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Thanks Sovereignty - it may be a dirty fix, but it will certainly make using the phone in public places a little less embarrassing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
Reefermattness, do you have any idea why some people can use the volume value in their startup and some don't? For me for example that line of code does not work. Even changing it from within android does not work.

I'm downloading the fix now and I will post some feedback :)

Anyone else got a freeze Problem with Navigation? Any used Program which navigates freezes at a random point. Sometimes 1min., sometimes 5min., sometimes i can navigate a whole route? In an earlier version it runs like hell?!

Or is it a new feature to learn the routes and keep it in mind ;).

is "adb wireless" working for anyone.. ?

hey folks..

does the "adb wireless" not work because android is running from the sd-card

or are there other options (including some misconfiguration of my machine) ;) ?

the wifi of my mobile is up and running.

after starting the app it tells me i could connect now from my computer using

adb connect 192.168.1.35:5555

the daemon is starting but the attempt to connect fails.

$ adb connect 192.168.1.35:5555
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
unable to connect to 192.168.1.35:5555

could anyone point me in the right direction.. ?

kindest..

I am going to try it =0 today and see what happens with it OC'ed. Will try to keep ya updated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] NewbTrader:
Well, sleep mode=0 seems to result in the phone not being able to send/receive calls. At first the phone seemed to wake up from sleeping with sleep=0 when the phone was called, but after letting it sit longer, and trying to call the phone, no luck. Also, making an outgoing call, it hangs, and trying to hangup, it is now stuck at "hanging up." Damn, definitely a shame as battery life is certainly improved with sleep mode =0. So, seems like the "safe" thing to do with android is to leave sleep =2 if you don't want to miss calls.

Just a heads up to anyone that sleep mode = 0,1 might result in missed calls.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
Yes, same results as me. Pphusson said that he will look in to it sometime next week. So maybe we get a fix and that will mean better batterie life while overclocked :D

anyone else having issues connecting to WPA/WPA2 wireless networks with the latest builds?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Minor Issue

I guess this is probably kind of for Reefer, but heres what I have going on. I'm on the latest with sound blazin build and it seems that sometimes when I boot into android my 3g and phone service work with the sim card in and sometimes it starts up in airplane mode and I can't turn it off. Its about 50% of the time for either. I don't know if that could possibly help anyone get the problem solved but I'd love to not me scared of my airline mode button.....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JBS2:
Charging in Android.. yes or no?

I am a bit confused about charing in Android. This should work according to the FAQ but when I try to charge my TP2 when I'm running Android the device shows "charged" in a couple of minutes and doesn't seem to charge anymore.

Is it necessary to boot back into WinMo to get my TP2 charged properly?

(working on a clean install by the way)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
It will still charge when it says 100%, you just can't see it :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JJHiemenz:
so some are and some aren't it seems. I never used to, but cannot test on my home router for another week.

The router I'm trying to connect to is running WPA-Personal with TKIP encryption.

It appears to be getting connected but then cannot get an IP and gives up, disabling the connection.

Not my router so I can't investigate much farther than this at the time. Ah well. I'll keep trying.. 3 steps forward and 2 steps back is still an eventual forward movement.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JBS2:
Thanks, how long does it normally take to get it fully charged?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Yeah I've deleted my data image and I've gone so far as to completely reinstall from scratch about 6 times. Each time it works fine with the sim in but then when I restart its in airplane mode. If I than reboot into windows and back it will be in airplane mode once more but the third reset will take it back to normal with the sim card in. Its really weird and makes no sense to me. It kind of reminds me of windows 3.1 and my mouse drivers haha.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
I don't know, I think around the same time as it will take in winmo

Just a little question, why do you have your simcard in? You are on cmda right? Then you must take your simcard out. But I think you already know this, so i'm just curious :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bieka:
Nobody got clue why navigation freezes the phone at some point? I dont want to go back on WinMo only for navigation.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
oh man

first time on in a minute. Ordered my epic 2 days ago and i come on to see you guys got sound working! good stuff guys. big up's to everyone. seeing how sprint sent my order to the wrong address i gotta wait till NEXT week to get my phone now....guess ill be throwin on the new rom on my TP2 tonight and rockin it till the epic comes in! good stuff again guys, this was the big steppin stone in the development for this phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Yeah I know we have to take it out but sometimes I don't have to and it would be nice to not have to take it out this coming week when I go to cancun. I will need the Sim card then to make phone calls. But its not a deal breaker.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
cmda phones dont use sim cards..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pdawg17:
Unless it is a World phone on Sprint (CDMA)...then there is a sim card but is only needed if "traveling abroad"...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Yes they do use sim cards. Its behind the battery and it is used when you travel outside of the US. The phone is a Hybrid world phone and switches over the GSM outside the country. I will be leaving the country and will need the sim card in order to make phone calls while I am away.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You'll have to do the SIM unlocker thing, and I would recommend just sticking with WinMo if this is what you need. I don't think this Android project is ready to handle what you want...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kawasaki9r:
I had the same issue. In the last build prior to sound working, I could leave the SIM in. With this one, I forgot about the SIM issue and it would work, then the phone would go out. I tried to adjust to CDMA only in the WM settings, but still nothing.

What about putting a piece of tape on the contacts or putting a small slice of paper to prevent the contacts from hitting before you go to Cancun?

Would it even work in world mode in Android, or would you have to use WM for calls there? VZ HTC Touch Pro 2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Yeah I think that's gonna be the case for me. Not a big deal. What I can't seem to get an answer on and don't know if anyone else is having the same issue is. (And I forgot about this one) is that my text messages will sometimes come in in japanese or chinese and I can't seem to figure it out. It happens mostly with my girlfriends texts which are from a sprint rumor 2. Its really weird.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
That is really weird... is this only on Android, or WinMo as well..?

Do you use Google Voice at all, or are you just exchanging txt messages on the normal carrier phone number?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Airhead315:
Actually that is incorrect. Sprint(cmda) Touch Pro 2's come advertised as a world phone they WILL work with international SIM cards when you are outside the US. The SIM unlocker that you have to pay for allows you to use ANY SIM card regardless of whether you are in the US or not. I paid for the unlocker service and installed a 3rd party SIM to allow me to use Us GSM networks in an emergency situation.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I thought you had to get Sprint to unlock it... no matter what. Is that not the case...? I know Sprint 'advertises' it as a world phone, but it was my understanding that the SIM slot would be locked unless you paid Sprint $$$ to unlock it... or just use the SIM unlocker.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Centz:
+1 for this issue. It happened all the time in older builds for me, but nothing on the builds in the past month. Sprint TP2, reciving texts from a Sprint Palm Centro. I thought the issue may be a certain character in the messages, like an apostrophe but nothing was conclusive. and again, that issue has not appeared for me in some time

This is such a corner case that I would not see diverting dev attention to it. USB/headphone jack/camera and accurate battery & charging are most important.

Does anyone else's phone get really hot when charging? Even when left aside, not doing any major tasks, it gets hot to the touch. I hope it is not an effect of OC'ing.

Japanese Text Messages

Its only in Android, its never happened in windows mobile. So yeah real weird. Its not the end of the world but sometimes its pretty annoying and once hers start coming in with japanese text it wont stop till I restart android.

But I do agree with the fact that the dev's really probably have enough to deal with at the moment. I'm thinking that it will probably be accidentally solved in the future maybe while implementing some new code or something who knows. But it is really weird lol.

Oh yeah and my phone also gets very hot sometimes while charging but other times it wont. It kind of seems to depend on how it starts up sort of like my 3g and tower service sometimes work with sim and sometimes it doesn't.

DONATE

Now that we have sound and things are really moving along. I recommend that you all donate.

I made a donation to Reef (hope it doesn't go up in smoke..lol), because I follow this thread and he makes the CAB files and all.

Even if people just donate $1 or $5, with the number of people involved here, we should be able to highly motivate as well as reward the developers.

They deserve it.

Reef: Is there a general pot (pun intended) to donate to, where other people get $ as well, without donating to each individual?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bieka:
I also want to donate to the devs who are involved to this great work. I think it's one of the greatest challenges on the TP2 getting Android on it. With donating to the team i also think we can thank them for the Time they spend for us using Android. When there is a pot where i can donate to, let me know ;).

Thanks so far.

Anyway i still have Problems with my Navigation an want to know if i can fix this or if more people have this Problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xSmooth-:
Is anybody else experiencing problems with the clock?

Not the 2 hour problem in Android & WinMo, but I use Android all the time now.

And I noticed I have to set the clock right everyday!

At the end of the day the clock is 15 min of, while after a night its 30 min behind.

Also, which file was it that I need to backup, if I want to update to the latest build without losing my messages/settings etc?

And last but not least, I am using the BLAZN build and I noticed I cant change my background.

If I want to select a picture from my SD card, I hold with my finger the homescreen, go to SD card and select the picture, nothing happens?

If I go to menu/file manager blabla and say "set as background"

I get the message that the camera crashed (process com.android.gallery)

Has this to do with the camera not working yet?

I remember in the not BLAZN version it worked.

I now use backgrounds via the backgrounds app.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] teufelschultz:
Hello,

I would like to donate too. But not to an individual person, an pot for all is the best way I think.

My Clock is changing over the day of 10min too. Because of this, I can't use the alarm. has anybody an idea to fix this?

(Sorry for my bad english ;-) )
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Tripp-phpBB:
Getting the sound to work was a huge thing for me and now I think I will make it my main interface now. I only have one problem, I cant view any of my music etc as it says my sd card is not inserted but android is running off the card. I have the stuff in folders if that makes a difference. I tried searching but couldnt find anything so any help will be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Known problem, and easily rectified by using ClockSync that Reefermattness has included in the BLAZN builds, or you can get it from the market.

It now has an autostart option, though this seems to work on some builds and not others - I haven't worked out why. Once started, you can configure it to auto sync at specified intervals.

I set mine to sync every 15 minutes, and I tend to leave wifi on over night (plugged in) so that it doesn't drift if it loses data in the night.

Put all those together and you get a reasonably reliable alarm clock! For a long time, this was the only reason I was booting into Windows! Now I just go there when it crashes or loses the signal :-(

I did ask Reefermattness if this AutoSync information could be added to the FAQ, but he didn't think it was necessary...

As for the bad English - it is much more correct and clearer than some of the txt speak non-punctuated badly grammatised drivel that some of the native (American) English speakers post on here... ;-) (That's sure set me up for a fall! Oops!)

And of course it is much better than my Deutsch!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
I wont smoke it dont worry. :)

Yes there is, however I personally am not included in this "pot" as im not specifically a linux dev. There is a XDAndroid link in post #2 to donate to, however if you want to thank me personally use the link in my sig. Without the linux devs this obviously wouldn't have happened. Sure I make things much easier, got you guys a startup utility (big update in the works for the startup including compatibility for all supported devices), completely started over with new ideas) and put it in packages and keep it updated for everyone, but they did the hard part. :D

I thank you for your donation bud, its amazing how few people even can say "Thank You" much less send a donation!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dirtypiratehooker:
Yeah, same here. I can make but not receive calls. I was getting some SOD action after about 4-6 hours as well. Going back to sleep=2 for now.

Problems with some apps

I'm a newcomer to this android lark, and so far am enjoying it immensely - thanks to all who've been involved!

When I first installed a (pre-sound) build, I was able to install and use apps, including google sky maps (obviously not with full functionality what with no compass), google navigation and a game called 'air control lite'.

With the new build (installed, deleted, re-installed, deleted, re-installed,...) these apps do not work - they give a start-up screen and then a black screen requiring a 'force quit'.

Anybody experienced similar issues? Any ideas?

One other thing I've noticed is that android doesn't seem to pick up position data from the network - is this usual?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pgdrz4:
hmmm wierd, when i try to boot back to winmo my phone gets stuck on the "shutting down" thing with the gray box.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Do you have your hw3d enabled? Doing so will cause any apps that try to use 3d vs 2d to black screen and FC. Do you see your startup animation or is it a black screen also?

Data network position doesn't work yet. :(

to use the gallery to change your wallpaper you must use menu > wallpaper > gallery and pick your wallpaper, you cannot (due to the camera.apk being removed) use apps > gallery > picture > set wallpaper, as you have noticed, it crashes.

just reboot back into Android.. I get the "can't call out, but can recieve calls" problem.. the reason is that Android did the quick reboot (not into WM), and it messes up calls.. it doesn't mess up my outbound all the time tho.. but im OC'd and using "0" right now, and calls work fine.

Now, battery life (for me atleast) using "0" is the same as "2" while OC.. moderate to heavy use, i get ~4 hrs from full to dead.
