I just seen the new files in the repository. for this build do I use zImage or zImage-eclair? Where does the initrd go is it also in the andboot?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
In the interests of customizing, I'm looking for someone who's interested in helping with some graphics, backgrounds etc.

PM me if your interested.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xtac21:
Anybody have any ideas what would cause errors trying to run the update?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
MSMission is this eclair build going to be updated anytime soon?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dmulligan:
Wait at least until MSMission gets a new vogue to test new builds on. He hasn't had one for weeks. He just said he ordered it yesterday.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
I've got a new build built, and some customizations already added. As was already said I'm just waiting on my new phone to test it before I release it. When I do I am going to start a new thread.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Although you haven't received your vogue yet, how do you think the functionality/speed/features will compare with this version?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Faster and better :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] HIYinOR:
I routinely connect Vogue to Computer via BT PAN on WM but am clueless with Android... any suggestions? Are you actually able to get Google Maps to work with this kinda connection? If so it seems like the PAN must be working for you.

I just got Myn's Warm Donut on last night and am having trouble finding this info on search, so any help or links would be appreciated.

Basic problem is getting SOME internet connection through PC preferably Bluetooth PAN because, like many Vogue owners, I don't have data.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Nice searching.

The short version is, don't bother. You can't do most things (market, youtube, internet) over the PAN connection due to a restriction in Android. Google Maps did work when I last tried, maybe six weeks ago, so if that's all you're looking for go for it although that seems a bit odd to me.

Edit: oh, and I only got PAN to work against a linux host. Couldnt' get it going against win 7. Might work with XP, I didn't try.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Can't wait!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
Did you get your replacement phone yet lol?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] HIYinOR:
Thanks for the reply. I guess there is searching and searching. Spent a couple hours searching at least, without a definitive answer. I read early on it wasn't available and many hints it was working now but did hope someone like yourself might give that definitive YES just keep looking, or NO forget about it.:)

A genuine thanks!:D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] srgudhka:
sorry to ask wrong question here. any chances of it being ported to elfin.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] AaronNZ:
Hi guys, has anyone else tested Exchange email support with this build?

I'm running off SDcard on a vogue, and it's coming up with "unable to open connection to server" when I try to setup my exchange account.

Data is working fine - i can browse the net, use google nav etc

Any help appreciated :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xtac21:
problem solved

Looks like it was just a bad download. Tried the download from one of the other hosting sites and applied the update with no problems.

Wow. Love the boot up animation and the launcher. Thanks mssmison, love this build. Can't wait to see the update.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drbrock:
would this work for the touch pro? I went over to touch pro forum and there is very limited information about whether there is a working rom or not.

I love what you guys are doing here!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] a5ehren:
Nope. These roms only work on the Vogue, Kaiser, and related devices - the hardware of the Touch Pro is too different for the work here to directly translate.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
not yet :) tracking it every day.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
just a teaser update for some new stuff coming in my next build.

plans;

-complete-1 build that will support proper 320x240 or 320x480 resolution setting via the spare parts app. keyboard/contacts and phone app will all be adjusted based on the setting in spare parts.

-in progress- auto phone type detection and wifi enable/disable

-complete- new special gesture buttons (more info to come on this)

-complete- disable menu button on lock screen for added security (this may move to spare parts selection)

-in progress, awaiting confirmation- completion of audio libs to support bluetooth audio

-in progress- fully customized boot graphics, boot animation, backgrounds for the android on vogue/kaiser/polaris.

-complete- redone and faster launcher2

-complete- more optimized livewallpapers

and more I can't think of right now. :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] AaronNZ:
Sounds awesome! Love the work you're doing here. Any chance of Exchange email working in the next build? :) It's all I need to fully ditch winmo forever! :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] pyrator:
does the camera and voicekeyboard work yet? Thats whats keeping me from trying this build?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] skipbarker:
Sounds great! :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] MikeMurphy:
Is there any way to manually set the resolution the market will report to google?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Fancy_Lad:
Exchange email is working fine on my end. If you need the corporate calendar, I threw up an update to add it here.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] AaronNZ:
Thanks, it's not working properly for me. After installing the update you've posted I seem to get intermittant connections, but it still regulary comes ups with "unable to open connection to server" :/

I'm connecting to exchange 2003, with SSL off.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Nope, I've been working on the camera libs but they haven't been a priority for me.

No.

The exchange calendar will be included, I don't ever use exchange but from what I'm told it works.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
im trying out this eclair build 2 roday. Should i wait for the new version? Does open gl work out of the box with build 2?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] breuski07:
i followed these instructions and got everything else working and it is fantastic, so thank you to all that have contributed!

i cant find where else i should ask this, but the issue that i am having is that i am trying to get the data working and it is not connecting at all. i am on sprint. if this is the wrong place to ask this, then please point me in the correct direction.

thanks for all the help in advance
[Touch CDMA Android Development] pyrator:
? any update ?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
Build 2 is eclair? If so, whats the difference between the two?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
i dont know but i seen it on the first post so i tried it. It didnt have live wallpapers or anyhting but i quickly went back to myns build for now. glad i made a data backup before trying it out
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
No, feel free to get to work on it :)

The new build is not posted in this thread.

That's my original version.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
No, I meant the other rom link in the first post. Says it's ported from a old G1 rom from WesG
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jamezelle:
ii

That is a donut build
[Touch CDMA Android Development] johnny312:
wow I just found this section and have your 2.1 working on my sprint HTC vogue. nice work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] deltagamer:
I was wondering 2 things.... Is there anyway to have facebook sync my contacts pics? I know you usually can, but I can't find it. Also is there a better t9 like thing for the keyboard, cuse i tried typing "fu*k" and it replaced it with "dickc*cks". Now Ive never typed in the "dc" so I really have no idea where it came from...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Roll Fizzlebeef:
"dickc*cks"...that's a new one for me.

When the f-word isn't strong enough, choose "dickc*cks".
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
For Facebook contact sync, the best solution for me is SyncMyPix. Look online or in the market.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] johnny312:
I am having issue with bluetooth, what info would help.

HTC vogue sprint

Plantronics Discovery 640 Bluetooth Headset

also the eclair240 worked great!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
does this mean you have hope for bluetooth?

Will it be posted here or in a new thread so I know where to look.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Yes and Yes :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
Cool, if you need a tester I would be more than happy to help
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
MS did you get the phone today?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] edgevision:
One thing that bugs me about this build vs. other Android builds is that there is no dictionary for T9... it auto-suggests first and last names of my contacts, but no real words. :(
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Not yet, post tracking says tomorrow. :) I'm a smaller city we're usually an extra day.

Which keyboard are you using?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] stephe914:
My phone is stopping at boot up, the last message says

2.180069 Kernal panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

2.190102 Rebooting in 3 seconds

then nothing
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
Long press any key on the keyboard. Select "input method" and select the other android keyboard. That will fix your auto-suggest issue.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] superevilllama:
no 3G data on sprint

Hey was checking this out, so cool I went and bought a Touch as a spare phone. I have everything loaded up and trying to get online, but no web page comes up and unable to connect to google. The apn setting seems to be in there. Am I missing something?

Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] AaronNZ:
Hey, noticed something fairly important!

No incoming voice calls! Outgoing calls work fine however.

Running off SD on Vogue. with suggested patches applied.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] TheKartus:
I receive incoming voice calls all the time without an issue...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
Did you get it today?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Hahaha - this reminds me of the smurfs:

"Are we there yet papa smurf"

"How about now papa smurf"

...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
totally.. lol Like I'm not going to post as soon as I get/activate/unlock and flash my new build to it for initial testing.. lol

Speaking of new build, another cool idea came across my plate today so I edited the source and compiled. Let's hope it works cause it's a cool idea.. I think anyways.. lol
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Please enlighten us! Pretty please?:rolleyes:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
nah this one I'll keep as a surprise :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mbehrns:
Thanks

Best ROM Ever. Thanks for your efforts, don't think I'll ever being going back to WiMO
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
Let me guess - hardware GL? Hopefully the dream solution works for us too - I might have to do some trials and cook something up if I get the time.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] HIYinOR:
"new build" "cool idea" "edited the source" "hope it works" and a second "cool idea" :mad: cruel I say, just plain cruel!

Here we sit at keyboard day and night hours on end, staring at meaningless pixels... wondering when will mssmison get a Vogue and feed us more Turkish Delight? I mean Android :o

I am sure you are far more anxious than we are, thanks for doing what you do.:D

This is meant as a true thank you mssmison, while you wait, with added humor... well attempted humor at least.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] edgevision:
This helped! Thank you.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] breuski07:
I had this issue also. The way I fixed it was to go to the HTC website and downloaded the original rom that was on there and flashed it back on the phone and the internet should be working after that. Then I re-flashed this back on there and the data should be working fine after that.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] egzthunder1:
That doesn't make any sense. The APN information is stored in the build, this is not like EPST where the information will survive rom flashing. Your APN info will be gone if you flash anything. What may have happened is that you d/l a build with a different preset set of apn parameters and that's why it worked afterwards.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] breuski07:
I used the same files that I had flashed with before when it didnt work. I was just explaining to that person what worked for me because no matter how many times i flashed the version of android in the first post, the data wouldnt work. I came across someone else saying that worked for them, so I tried it and it worked. I was just suggesting something for the person to try.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
It's weird, no question about it.. But I'm glad it worked for you :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] egzthunder1:
Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that you are lying or anything like that... I am honestly saying that it makes no sense. Didn't mean to tell you anything bad... my apologies.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] egzthunder1:
So, you got it yet? :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
You guys seem as excited as me :)

Yup, just got android flashed on after all the fun stuff I had to do :)

Just working on getting ADB setup in windows 7 64 bit (which I didn't have before) and testing the new version of the build.. Which amazingly works really good for throwing it together blind.. Definitly faster than the other..

Let's keep the chatter down about it here, I'll start a new thread for it soon.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
Sooooo, are you done the internal testing?

When you going to release it? :D
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Can someone who's running this rom please download linpack and tell me what they're getting? I need to be sure this new build really is running faster and not just because I've been away.. lol
[Touch CDMA Android Development] br125:
After running all day

MFLOPS: 1.623

Time: 3.34

Norm Res: 3.36

Precision: 2.220446....E-16

On fresh reboot after everything loaded

MFLOPS: 1.663

Time: 3.26

Norm Res: 3.36

Precision: 2.220446....E-16
[Touch CDMA Android Development] moekind:
Yup I ran linpack tested the build and its perfect so far.

You are not hallucinating.... it really is fast!

I think the build is ready to be released to the public!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] br125:
Patiently waiting ;)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] pir2:
clean install

MFLOPS: 1.645

Time: 3.29

Norm Res: 3.36

Precision: 2.220446....E-16
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
Unfortunately linpack doesn't test out our roms accurately. It tests MFLOPS and not speed and agility of application load, rendering and caching.

I've tried a number of the benchmarking apps with many of my custom roms and others determining a benchmark and all of them yield similar results between the roms.

For reference my Warm Donut registers the following with linpack and I would expect the same results with any other rom however if you were to give the two different roms to people you'd easily be able to tell the diff.

We need a better way to bench these.

Warm Donut:

MFLOPS: 1.65

Time: 3.28 seconds

Norm Res: 3.36
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Yes. I already knew that as it is mflops I am going after right now thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] audiophyl:
JIT dalvik hack

Have you tested/are you including the JIT Dalvik hack with the forthcoming build?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] plemen:
I've tested the JIT Dalvik hack with some Donut builds (Cyan, WG) and don't notice a huge difference - especially for the possible instability. But who knows, maybe it works better for eclair...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] myn:
ditto.

I've benched donut and eclair's with the JIT Dalvik enhancement and don't notice any speed improvement either.

Although it benches better. Didn't feel faster though.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Updates on progress;

plans;

-changed-1 build that will support proper 320x240 or 320x480 resolution setting via the spare parts app. I'm sorry qvga users, but there's too much lost by running this build in qvga, I may look at an update in the future but no for now.

-in progress- auto phone type detection and wifi enable/disable

-complete- new special gesture buttons (more info to come on this)

-complete- disable menu button on lock screen for added security (this may move to spare parts selection)Testers have noted this always doesn't work, may remove

-in progress, awaiting confirmation- completion of audio libs to support bluetooth audio still waiting :)

-in progress- fully customized boot graphics, boot animation, backgrounds for the android on vogue/kaiser/polaris.

-complete- redone and faster launcher2

-complete- more optimized livewallpapers

At this point I'm pretty much just waiting on our new graphics to get completed to release the build. In the meantime there are other new builds that I'm having a look at as well to see what may be of use to us.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] f_hugh:
If you can put together a sqsh version with a little instruction for those who are functionally retarded, I can check the bluetooth stuff with a headset. ;)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
Exciting news!

I'll probably still try this, just because it sounds so cool - but I doubt I'll be able to stand maintaining my device on a daily basis in that small of a size - it hurts my eyes! lol
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
When will this be done? any time soon?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Yeah I'm not awesomely impressed either. :( What I may end up doing is putting out an update that contains some different frameworks and stuff to make the qvga res useable. It won't have all the 'fun' but it will keep vogue qvga users with 2.1 as an options
[Touch CDMA Android Development] grktaurus83:
Awww... I was really looking forward to that. I can't stand the blurry text so this a no go for me as well.

Maybe one day...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] polyrhythmic:
What are you having the most trouble with for QVGA? I've been able to recompile the dialer .xmls from source to make them QVGA-compatible, I'd be happy to share the fixes with you.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Shidell:
I take it one (or more) of the developers is working on updating the audio libs?

What's the story on GL? Is that an update we can use from the Dream's 2.1 that's compatible?

Very interesting--and exciting--progress. Look forward to seeing what you've come up with.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Some of the other changes I made to the framework, and the launcher 2 changes don't work in wvga, nor does gallery3d.

Like I said if I put one out it'll just be a plain vanilla eclair.. But honestly why use eclair if you're not using launcher2 and all the fun stuff. I'd be using donut.

I'm the only one doing the audio libs, just waiting on testing.. GL works out of the box on this build. It's as good as it's going to get I've some stuff to investigate with the kernel that might make it better but it's pretty good. scores of 22-24 on neocore.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] deekjx:
I experienced odd behavior with this build and the two updates. My battery got drained very quickly, about 2-3 hours. The phone became extremely warm and I noticed that the 3G arrows were flashing up and down at the same time once a second. I could not find an app that was running in the background that would cause this. Any ideas?

I ran it on two EXT2 (system/data) partitions off my 8 gig microSD card.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
I don't know to be honest. I haven't experienced that in the new build though.

For those wondering I've hammered out some more stuff that was in my way. I didn't get all the graphics I'm looking for yet, and still waiting on the new audio libs. However, I'm going to release this new build either way tomorrow and will make a new thread for it. I'll include a list of updates in the new thread.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] johnny312:
I just may have to Beer you for that !
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xtac21:
issue with gl support

I've got the correct nbh flashed. I also have the script scheduler app installed and the afterboot.txt file in the phonePrioritizer folder on my sd card.

Every time i boot, i see this on the screen, and in the bootlog.txt

chmod: /dev/msm_hw3dc: No such file or directory

chmod: /dev/msm_hw3dm: No such file or directory

i can browse to /dev in astro and see those 2 files, but for some reason it can't see it on boot up.

Any ideas to make this work properly?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] larstnt:
Hi!

A small question... this build work on polaris? I have tried it, and the animated wallpapers and the wifi doesn't work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
I'm sorry, the older build posted in this thread didn't work properly all the time with hw3d. with the new build and nbh it works right off the bat.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] xtac21:
No worries, i thought i hadn't set something up properly. Thanks for the reply, can't wait for the new build.

HOW DO PEOPLE FIND THESE ANCIENT THREADS?!

Go look at the Fresh Froyo thread.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
I'm not doing something right. In installer menu I left system on nand and data on nand checked, selected install system...It did something, Then brought me back to the installer. I hit quit and I get a mount error.. The only thing on my sd is the tar file in a folder I named andboot I ran the nbh after dropping the tar file onto my sd.

sh: 0: unknown operand

mount: mounting /data/sysfiles/su on /system/xbin/su failed: No such file or directory

mount: mounting /data/sysfiles on /system/etc/ppp failed: No such file or directory
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bri3d:
Sounds like what I'm seeing too - I think the reupped tar file might be corrupted again. The real error is probably a couple screens earlier and is probably

tar: bad magic

UPDATE: repacked the tar with tar xpf androidinstall.tar, ignore the exit code, then repack with tar cf androidnew.tar system and it installed and booted now. I think we're better off waiting for an intact tar from the source (MSSMISON, not me).
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
How do I go about flashing this tar file? Is it still the same way as running ROMUtility with the latest nbh file first?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
I'm sorry guys, I think something isn't working with mediafire or something..

I'm going to bed, I'll sort this out tomorrow.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sshark:
I get past Android Installation Menu, after installing System on NAND and Data on NAND. It then fixes permissions (chmods).

Now for past 5 min I am sitting on ANDROID screen with following text underneath:

init: unable to open persistent property directory /data/property errno: 2

Can anyone make sense out of this?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] sparky101747:
Is there a size limit on tar file?? can we add some ringtones or notifications without problems?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vilord:
the size limit on the tar is whatever the size limit is for nand, which is approximately 105 megs.

if you install to ext2 file its 256 megs, if you install to SD it is whatever size you gave your sd partition
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bri3d:
The tar file is broken. Wait for it to be reuploaded properly tomorrow.
