I notice the new build has larger tick boxes, would it be possible for asthetics to have a small icon as before but with a large captcher area which would make selection/deselection of tick boxes easy still.

Just an idea, not an "I want" :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Kernel update does not work with the automatic update. It has been a problem for quite a while (the site changed hosts), and has been documented repeatedly in this admittedly very long thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
edit: reread the message and noticed that you were asking if it was possible to have a large sensitive area but small button, not just repeating that it would be nice to make the box smaller! Oops!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] fancieryu:
Dropping calls. I just installed the newest distribution on my sprint tp2. It seems to have the same problem from previous version that prevent me from running it all the time:

After leaving it on for a while, when I make an call, the call drops right after it is connected, effectively means I cannot place any calls. I will have to reboot (and optionally reenter Android) to be able to make phone calls again.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] devis:
thanks! Appreciate the info, as well as taking the time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] aatreya:
Sound has been fixed in the kernel sources! Hopefully with the next kernel autobuild, it will be working.

See http://gitorious.org/linux-on-qualcomm-s-msm/linux-msm-rhod-nand
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Banditd:
I followed your advice and found the lines:

05:51	jonpry	i have sound on a rhodium, nananananana

05:53	jonpry	:-)

05:53	jonpry	you too, soon
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Ill make sure I release new packages as soon as it compiles as long as it tests out well. I suppose I will have to put new Galaxy S down for a while... ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
WOAAAAAAAAAA, SOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUND

:eek:

OKay, sorry for big letters, but this is the moment, most of us were waiting for.

Great, good work - whoever has done this: Thanks

BTW: has something important changed on the startup.txt since 0717 release?

Got the latest release yesterday using my old startup.txt (because the startup.txt that came with it got 0 Bytes after first boot) and Android seems to act a little wired. I got an upside down landscape mode for example (thx god, not when opening the hardware keyboard)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dazultra2000:
Holy frijoles! Sound?! This will make my wait for the DesireHD/Z/Vision a lot easier! :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
Ok, there is the zImage update with sound enabled:

http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/htc-msm-linux-20100826_132519-package.tar.bz2

The fix was quite stupid, as I expected it to be ...

Thanks to Pohket who found the problem.

There are still many things to do to make it proper (like speaker not always on, changing volume, etc), but well, the hard part is done.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] uub11:
Looks like sound is up to download on the site guys

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
Thank you so much! Testing it now :D

IT'S WORKSSSSSSSSSSSSS :D :D :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] MrCrazy:
Damn guys this is incredible!

I just tested the new kernel with sound and believe it or not.

IT WORKS! GREAT!!!

Compliments to the developers!

Edit:

I notice as soon you will use the internet connection you get a sound like you hold your phone to close to speaker.

The phone itself makes this noise anyone else get this too?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 19ninety:
exactly what i meant yes :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dazultra2000:
OK! So far I'm impressed!

Sound is definately working.

I can sometimes hear the "GSM" noise that you get when you hold your phone to speakers.

Also there are frequent clicks when I'm guessing sound gets turned on.

Also so far I can't get voice search to work, but I guess that's expected...

Talk about a big step though!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Hooray hooray hooray!

Mine has a pretty much constant hissing/buzzing sound though when it is not playing a sound. Sometimes it stops after a sound is played or something else happens, then it starts hissing again. It doesn't sound much like GSM near to speakers to me, but maybe it is the same thing others have reported.

Anyway. Hooray again!

Thanks devs!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nerd6373:
Thank god ...I love it...I have waited all this time for this...im just curious...what was the major detail the devs where overlooking...?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] brandonbl79:
In light of this new development this question seems ridiculously out of place, but I'll ask anyway!!!!!!

But first, Holy **** on Sound!!!!!!!!!! Amazing and congrats to all who worked hard to make it happen.. This is too cool and can't wait to load it up.

So, the simple questio (couldn't find answer in post), is there anyway to force anroid into starting portrait?

(I warned you).

Brandon.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] berrywr:
First, the work y'all do is deeply appreciated and today is my first attempt at installing Android to my Touch Pro 2 so forgive me if this question has been asked before Android is hanging on "Signed In! Please slide keyboard in" I've made two attempts at this; the first it hung prior to signing in to my Google account and the second was following it. In using my buttons at the bottom the far left sent me to power options, the windows button to network options, the next button nothing and the far right (end key) would toggle between a dark screen with nothing on it and the keyboard message. Any suggestions? Thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 1jaxstate1:
What would you consider a proper donation? I just made my friend piss himself. I have to give something!:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] berrywr:
I do have functionality if I skip the login. I'm stunned, this is incredible. Simply, incredible. Now, let's see what this baby can and cannot do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rankhalfling:
A .cab file is the install file

In Winmo go to start>Tools>file explorer>storage card> and then the version 22nd feb file from here

obviously previously connect the phone in file transfer mode and copy over the downloaded cab file to the memory card.....

when install is finished do the following:

go to settings>all settings>system>power>backlight>disable auto adjust backlight

press end key to return to homescreen, then press power to sleep the phone

then power again to awaken your phone (this is key to save power and for the lower keys not to remain permenantly lit)

press start on TOUCHSCREEN

scroll down start Haret

Happy days android here you come!!!

on first boot keep your eyes open for the touchscreen calibration!!!

if you want latest build follow links in the thread!!! sorry unable to post links yet still a BABY here lol :rolleyes:

then complete the simple steps listed on that site above the download section.

anything else feel free to pm me!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 1jaxstate1:
Why is it that my physical key at the bottom of my TP2 say lit? Sorry, just read the post...RIGHT ABOUT MINE!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] imeraz:
I'm having trouble installing the cab versions lately. The first couple of releases worked fine using the cab install but the last two (02/22 and 02/24) I have not been able to install using the cab file. Instantly comes up with installation was unsuccessful. I've got a 1gb sandisk card and i've tried doing a full format on it but the cabs still don't work. Like I said this worked with previous versions of the build but has not worked with the last 2 builds. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

BTW, great work devs...I will be donating once I am able to use this 100%.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
If every user donate 1€ it's already a lot :p

But currently I received donations only from other devs and testers :confused: (well when speaking about topa/rhod android dev.)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sebbo90:
How do you get the apps in the app folder to install? Like i have looked in the folders and it says facebook etc but none of them are they on andriod when i boot into it. Any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] devilcuban:
When you boot android you can run the App installer and it will search SD card for APPs and you should be able to click and install as you wish.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 1jaxstate1:
Just donated 15 Euros. Not much, but it's something.

How do you run the app installer I have not seen it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dicko99:
You misunderstand my question... I have installed the cab file fine but after I boot into Android, I want to install the extra Android apps that are in \storage card\Android\Android Apps...

The problem is I cannot work out how to browse to this folder without downloading a file explorer app from the market place. As noted in another thread, there's a problem with downloadin from MP on t-mobile UK at the moment.

well if you boot back to winmo then connect phone browse to folder

then copy apps back to first folder where it says copy apps here!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] imeraz:
Any ideas anyone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] radi0chik:
Have you tried a different card? I know you said you formatted your current card. I had one card that did work and one that didn't.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] imeraz:
I haven't tried a different card. I'm looking at buying a 16gb card but I just haven't done it. I just think it's strange that it worked with previous builds and not this one. I'll just use the .rar build I guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Could just be some corrupt data on your SD card that is causing this and thats why the .rar works but the .cab does not. I would try a format of your SD card (not a quick format, a full format), and if you have the option try a different SD card. I do have a 2Gb Kingston that this will not install on no matter what I do, so it could be the card. Ill look at my cabs and see if anything major changed from my previous builds, but i really don't think anything did. (Other than the start menu icon.... hmmmm)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] imeraz:
Maybe it's a permission thing on my phone? I've tried a full format of the card but the cab still does not install. I just installed the cab that puts the android icon in the start menu and that worked right away. Very strange.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] devilcuban:
It should be in your program looks like this. and I've attached the Aplication in case you don't have it,save it on you AndroidApps folder. Hope this helps ya. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
Known problem.

Basically, android doesn't tell us when the speaker is needed, so it's always on. The bad thing is that when sound isn't used, the wires to the speaker are like forgotten, in the vacuum, or whatever, and that makes it take every single electrical noise available.

Fixing this is quitr easy, but really annoying to do. (But that will remove the need of the call_vol thing too)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] surge919:
I don't know about forcing it, but if I press the back button twice, it switches without needing to slide the keyboard open and closed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
By annoying, do you mean tedious and will take a lot of someone's spare time?

P.S. Post 7000!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] [ACL]:
People.. remember to give credit where credit is due.. i dont take donations personally, but the other devs do. :-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Or you could press the Windows key once, which switches the rotation and unlocks the phone at the same time!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kojotandoh:
WWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZOOOOHHH!!!!!!! Donations will be on their way tomorrow when I get paid. Hey phusson does this mean that 3d will be fixed soon too and who dp I donate to apart from yourself of course
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] brandonbl79:
That's a good enough fix for me!!!!!! Thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Caspertje19:
wonderfull day, new life for my TP2.

Thank all of you who made this possible
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] brandonbl79:
While I'm on my stupid question kick, what is the correct method for updating zimage that will allow me to keep my setup, or is there?

I.E. - do I lose configuration/apps when I update zimage, and how do I correctly do it regardless.

Thank you XDA dev's amen.

Brandon
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dazultra2000:
I just extracted it, renamed it, replaced the one I already had, and away I went. Kept all my settings (which I believe are kept in data.img)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kojotandoh:
Everyone who has whining and waiting for this I think donations are in order
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
Do you guys have something like a group paypal account or something? Or do I need to donate everyone personally?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
No, I just mean boring :p

Should be a matter of few hours, and some fight with android build system.

No. I thought the fix for ADSP and 3D would be quite the same, but it definitely can't (well I'll check. I've some doubts on something)

People who worked a lot on sound are jonpry, me, acl, and the final fix gaver was Pohket

There is a group for xdandroid, but I think that's not relevant. Some devs are part of this group, and some devs of this group hasn't worked on sound :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] brandonbl79:
LInk to zimage

Can't find link to the individual zimage, only the package.

Any ideas?

First time, i've not installed from a package.

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dazultra2000:
Download http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/htc-msm-linux-20100826_132519-package.tar.bz2

Extract it using 7zip or something similar. Extract the .tar you get out of that as well and you should get a zImage and a Modules file. Rename the zImage file to just "zImage" and copy both files to your SD card in the andboot folder.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] husam666:
Sound tested, Working gr8 :D:D:D:D

only there is a hissing sound like if i'm hearing the CPU working from the speaker.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
YAY Sound

Haha I'm so glad they got this working. I would really love to know what changed and how they got it working. Also how do I get the damn thing to shut up now? I mean I love having the sound but its nonstop on my phone. I get what sounds like constant static coming from the rear speaker. I'm not complaining really but I'd love to know how I can fix this or if its been noted that its doing that.

Fantastic work guys. Once I get back to the US I'm donating to this project somehow.

Edit: So I noticed if I put it on vibrate it quiets the speaker for a few minutes but slowly it starts making sounds again. Kind of sounds like interference like when you walk by unshielded speakers with a GSM phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Re. Constant sound - try reviewing just the last two pages!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] testlinkt:
Woot sound works as advertised!! Not sure if it is just me but I tried GPS this morning with the new zip files and my gps wouldnt show me my location on google maps???

Can anybody confirm?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
What?! Sound comes just as I get my HD2 today? Today is the greatest day ever! Is $150 a decent deal with charger and 16gb class 2 sandisk ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sancho1234:
Yes, yes, yes! :D

I almost sold my device. Now still waiting. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demonlordoftheround:
Great News

Awesome, awesome!

PS

Whoa! Android found all my ringtones on my SD card!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Thanks snalbansed, I can't believe I missed that on my first scan through. Now I feel like and XDA Noob. haha. Well still thanks to everyone who got this working. I can't wait to see your finished product. Based on what we've seen so far its going to be a great time to own a TP2!

Edit: I do have one question for anyone on here who can answer it. Has anyone else with sprint experienced the issue of text messages coming in, in japanese? I'm not sure whats causing it but every couple of messages my girlfriend sends from her sprint phone come in as Japanese.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nerd6373:
Now that we have sound working. Can we now use the start up text code to get 3.5mm earphones working ? If we can whats the code? If not any alternatives?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cdiesel:
lol the day im getting the droid is the day we get sound lol

edit...btw when i copied over the new zimage wifi stopped working.. did i do something wrong?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] blackwaterstout:
Working for me too. I do sometimes here a slight hissing sound but aside from it's solid.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] blackwaterstout:
Anyone know how much effect on battery life overclocking has? Right now I'm running at 700mhz but I was wondering if reducing that to around 625mhz would have any noticable effect?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] edwill44:
It actually does depend on your usage. You may get a few extra mins or even a few hours. Its all about how you use your phone. With that, you will notice a difference in how fast the phone respomds to commands. Try it and see what you get....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] blackwaterstout:
Thanks. I do enjoy the snappiness when it's set at 700mhz. :) I'll try clocking it down and see if the battery performance increase is worth the usabilty hit.

I think my battery is getting drained also by the fact that my LED light is staying orange often. I know that means the phone is not in sleep mode but I haven't been able to track down how I can fix this. I'm not sure but it seems to be random. Sometimes the light is orange, sometimes it's green and sometimes it's not on at all. lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
You need both zimage, and modules. BTW guys im uploading a new build right now. :)

Funny they got sound working the day after I got my Galaxy S (not that im gonna go back to my TP2 now.... but it figures after waiting a year. lol).

Thanks for a good job!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] juliocho:
Well, if it wasn't for my $30/mo SERO account, I'd change as well... but no phone today justifies an additional expense of $1000 over 2 years.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
I know its the one most of you all have been waiting for! Lets see how many pledges from the bounty forum actually get honored now! LOL

Already fixed the packages for you and uploaded fresh! Re-included the start up utility in the .rar packages for those of you who were missing it!

Just head to the Download page!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
Can anyone confirm that ?

If it's true, there is something VERY wrong somewhere
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Could it be the difference in using sleep=1 for stock speeds vs sleep=2 for overclock?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
So I should probably send mine? lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Lennyz1988:
with sleep 1 enabled of course :) With stock speed I can get around 12 hours and then when I boot back in winmo I have 30-40 % left. (I didn't go any further then 12 hours, because I don't want the risk of depleting the batterie completely.)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] AdamWill:
yay, sound. matt, any word on whether this works with headphones? I can't quite figure it from the commit. Especially with the USB -> 3.5mm adapter you have to use on Tilt 2...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
The most important thing right now is the battery meter and the camera although there is a slight hissing sound in the back. Anyways thanks I appreciate it ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Hey Adam. :) Good to see you showing up for the special occasions still!

I cant quite figure that out yet just by the commits either. Ill get my dongle out here in a sec (sounds funny) and test it. Unless someone else beats me to it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] AdamWill:
hey matt. I've been following the thread, just not posting. I'm just installing the cab now...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] akaussie:
Hey Reefer - is anything gained by installing the new build vs manually updating the modules and zImage? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lordstrife:
this is awesome news!!!!!

hasd anyone been able to get wifi tethering to work?

Someone said it was because we use ip table 1.3 and not 1.4 is this true and if so how hard would it be to update this?

edit because that all that keeping me in winmo at this point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
No sound output through the 3.5mm jack of the ExtUSB adapter, using the latest zImage (at least not using the standard items in the startup.txt). Is there any command that needs to be added to truly test it? I do recall seeing a few earlier in the thread (something like snd.force.headset=?? or something like that?)

I'm running the 8/17 BLAZN build currently - everything else is the latest version.
