i had the same problem when i first put android on my phone. Does your phone have a sim card in it if it does take it out then redo it worked for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ksaxe:
Completely Agree

MonzaBlue,

I agree with you 100% ... I update and test Android nearly every day and use it as my primary OS. I am so amazed with the skills of the developers of this port project.:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ksaxe:
Check your STARTUP.TXT and look for phrase "force CDMA=" and make sure it states "force CDMA=1" and not "force CDMA=0"

Tilt 2 Upgrade from 3/8 version to 3/31

I tried upgrading and it didnt work. I then tried running the 3/8 version and Linux ran on a continuous loop for about an hour and i finally had to reboot. I removed the CAB and deleted all traces of Android and I was able to install the 3/31 CAB but it once again ran on a continuous loop and had to reboot. has anyone else had this problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Slayer942:
Blank Screen

Hi,

I've recently installed the android cab on my htc tp2, I followed all the instructions and clicked on the HaRet icon in the start menu.

After the I had calibrated the screen and the linux writing had finished, it just stayed on a blank (black) screen, backlight is on, but nothing else is happening.

Sorry if this has been covered, there are 207 pages.

Wait a few more minutes, the first boot can take a while (up to 15 minutes, tho on my Rhod100 a first boot takes about 5 mins)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] majster-pl:
I noticed on my rhod100 that sometimes when i folding up the landscape... the phone going off so i have to turn it on again. ( it is aether under WinMo or Android ) Did anyone had it before ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] emyllis:
Massive thanks

Really enjoying this port - it's stable and I'll happily use it as my primary rom once the bugs etc are ironed out. But it's really enjoyable to use - thanks to all the programmers and their hard work :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] midimarcus:
I want to say thank to all developers of this port, too.

It's stable enough to use it, and I'll follow this thread with interest to test all future updates!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] RobbyTouchHD:
Do you guys think it would be possible to run the nokia n900 linux based system on tp2? It would be interresting because it has a mozilla firefox browser with flash support and much more!

Would it be possible to run it on our tp2?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Slayer942:
I've waited 15 mins and the screen is still blank!

All Good now, just cleared my tp2 and tried again, worked perfectly :)

HELP

Is there a way i can switch back and forth between the windows mobile and the android application?????
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ozzie Sandoval:
Cannot install....

I tried to install android but cant...

on my tilt 2 with the latest 3/31/10 update.....

1. I formated my SD card,.

2. I installed it to my SD card

3. I soft reset

4. I went to start and ran android.

5. I clicked tilt 2 and the hardware 3d was already checked

6. I press run android

The screen turns black and white text or a script comes down, and it never ends. It's been like 45 minutes and it's still on the same screen, I think it is looping. What am I doing wrong? How can I fix this? as soon as I downloaded it i was about to donate money, but good thing i waited cause it doesnt seem to work for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ozzie Sandoval:
Never mind, if anyone is having this problem as I am, or better yet, was...

when it asks for your phone device, uncheck the "hardware 3D" optionand it works, at least for me it did.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
Yeah....Power it off and then on. Voila
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
This may be a silly question, but how do I get rid of some of the apps that come with this build? for example, I don't much care for Facebook or the built-in Calculator, as I only have use for a scientific calculator and download one from the Market. Is it not possible to uninstall these somehow?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
Best Devs ever!!!

Thank you! This has been running smooth for about a week now, switching back and forth between WinMo and Android with ease:) This is almost better than a full port and wait till we get live wallpaper and Nexus launcher or HelixLauncher2 this is going to be really kill!! or or even better wait for it wait for it...........Android w/SENSE UI:) LONG LIVE PROJECT ANDROID!!!!!!!!!!!! and to the Devs, "we're not worthy" "we're not worthy" ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
In Android use SU file browser or any root file browser and find the apps in the project android folder thats on the root of your sdcard and just delete them you might not even need a root file browser but you do in regular Android and you also have to mount system:) hope this helps
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
Hm, I tried that but I can't mount anything. I tried this:

mkdir /sdcard/mnt

mount -o loop /system /sdcard/mnt

Nada. I mkdir'ed it in the SD Card because it wouldn't allow me to mkdir in the filesystem itself.

I don't seem to have anything that resembles root privileges, how can I get them? All the info I've seen on "rooting" Android assumes that it's the flashed OS on the device, so I don't believe it really applies here. :(

/bin has something called "sulogin", is this similar to "sudo"? How does one utilize it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
Don't do this. Just go into the market, click on downloads, click on the app, and click uninstall. Plain and simple.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mdizor:
I have the verizon TP2 and I have installed the CAB off my SD card. I have successfully installed it; but I can not get it to recognize data or calling. I have tried everything I could think to get it to work and I have followed the directions meticulously. Anyone having this issue? I am certain that it is a simple issue; but I can not figure out what to do.

Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
go into term and type "su" then hit enter, and you will get # which means ROOT:) and you don't mount in Project Android only when in real Android lol you can just delete app from sd but be careful what you delete:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
Why not? Just curious
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
Did you go into settings and check your network settings? did you turn off GPS like it said too, I'm not sure if that would effect it but you never know:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
Haha, his advice is all well and good for something I've downloaded, but those are easy. I'm trying to uninstall the apps that are "built-in" to this filesystem.

I tried "su", it locked up the terminal to the point where it gave me a popup asking me whether to force close the app. Do I need a specific terminal for this, or can I use the included PTerminal?

Also, thanks everyone for the help. I'm a total Android noob. ;)

EDIT: Okay, I DL'ed the Android Terminal Emulator, and it seems more capable. I can su just fine to the root prompt, however I still cannot do anything useful - "read only filesystem". Tried mounting the system/app directory on /mnt, which worked now, however it still shows read-only. I am unable to chmod anything, sulogin returns "no password entry for root", manually editing /etc/shadow doesn't do anything, and running passwd as root returns "unknown userid 0".
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
use better terminal emulator from the market:) works like a champ;) I've been Android since day one! lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] phhusson:
You can't edit /system, it's a read-only filesystem.

Either google on how to create a system.ext2, or wait for a kitchen to appear.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jubilleum:
hello!

I installed android to my TP2.

Is it possible to use the HTC sense on android (this: http://bit.ly/bMXrtY )

I think that would be great...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
That worked like a charm, thanks! Now it doesn't seem to be able to connect to wi-fi though, and won't sync my settings...Permissions, maybe? I'll fiddle with it, now that I can superuser it into doing what I want. Thansk for the help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] suree_n:
Fully agreed, phhusson. It's the SQSH read only file system. I 'd better wait for kitchen.

But just for my knowledge, I have converted the file system to .ext2 but failed to reboot the system. Do I need to hard reset i.e. delete the data.img and boot again ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] spacegravity4me:
guys, i love what yall have done but i need some major help! I've looked through the thread for a while now and i can't find a solution. My phone says that I have no network access at all, no service. There is an alert in the pull down thing that says " No service. Selected network (at&tp) unavailable." I went to the apn settings thinking maybe if i manually enter the information it would work but every time i enter the info in apn settings and hit save it doesn't save it. I can select network carriers but that doesn't do anything and the phone seems to be in perpetual airplane mode. There is an airplane over the bars at the top of the screen and every time i select deactivate airplane mode it just sorta hangs there and does nothing till i back out to the main screen. Very confused. Please help. Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
That's what I did. I followed the steps here to the letter, and I'm now running Android with full root access and most of the default apps removed (I'm just picky like that):

http://www.android-devs.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=166

Also, since it is now .ext2, in the future it should be possible to copy/replace files from other Android or Linux releases directly into the filesystem, rather than replacing the entire thing every time you want to try a new feature or build. Just convert the new SquashFS to EXT2, but don't replace your old one - boot up from the old one, mount the new EXT2 as, say, /mnt/, and cp to your heart's content!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HTCdemon:
Just like this person I have the same issue... except I'm using the stock rom and stock spl ( since htc-unlocks has yet to reply to my support ticket....2 weeks in almost :confused: )

I read that you can install hardspl to ( possibly ) fix it but like I said above I cannot install hardspl yet :/

Any suggestions? ( besides HardSPL... )

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
Why can't you install HardSPL?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] spacegravity4me:
I have an att tilt 2 btw. Maybe i accidentally installed the cdma version? This is pissing me off. lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
In your startup.txt, do you have "force_cdma=1" set?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HTCdemon:
Because I got a replacement Tilt2 and I have to wait till htc-unlocks replies to my request for a new license to HardSPL the NEW Tilt2... and atm it has been almost 2 weeks without a reply so I'm having little faith I'll ever get one :/ ( no offense )

Can anyone actually confirm or deny if the HardSPL install/reinstall method will actually re-enable GPS?

Thanks.

battery consumption

hey ya'll I'm a newbie. I've always been a reader since I like the Android interface quite a bit and I use the WM6.5 side of my phone too. But to know that you all have given me the option is awesome.. I've done it to my HTC Fuze(which my wife loves) and now I have my Tilt 2. On both phones though, the battery dies extremely way too quick(after about 3 hours) and I'd like to see if there's anything that would prevent it from killing the battery. Any thoughts or suggestions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
Hm, still no dice on the wi-fi since the filesystem conversion. Anybody have any dieas on that one? It says "Unable to start wifi", and won't turn on from the settings menu or from the wi-fi analyzer app.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] surge919:
Did you start Project Android with "Force CDMA" checked?

Also, I'm not sure if it's needed anymore, but is your SIM card removed?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zombiegristle:
Yes on both counts. CDMA and 3G/EV-DO are good to go, it's the wi-fi that won't start.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dmguild:
no ideas at all?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dmguild:
Nvmind I figured it out, my phone is GSM so I had to remove the Force CDMA line.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] spacegravity4me:
lol, yea, i finally checked and sure enough, it was set to one. I set that sucker to 0 and now it's all working just fine. :D

Is Anyone but me having problems with Google Maps Navigation? It used to work now I can't seem to get it to work? It no longer pops up as an option on google maps when I try to map a location. Anyone have any help?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] surge919:
I think it stopped working with upgrade following Google Maps 4.0

It might have something to go with not having a live GPS signal. Until that it resolved, we don't know what is blocking the Navigation option.

Just need a little help

So Ive read ALOT of forums. All those who worked so hard to make the xdandroid project and all its glory so awesome I thank you from the bottom of whats left of my soul :) Now that you know Im impressed with all of you and your infinite knowledge, maybe you can spare a sec to help me troubleshoot my issue. Please read my whole post so I dont get dismissed as I have read several answers on my problem, yet none seem to do the trick.

First off, I have the HTC Touch Pro 2 from Sprint. It has the sim card in. Android works great for me. Except I cant get data. I tried fresh installs with and without the sim card. Ive tried a few different distros. Ive tried editing my start file with and without the force cdma line. My data works great in WM6.5, but when I boot android it wont connect to data. I tried going to mobile networks and searching. It will say connected on network, but my data Icon doesnt change and I cant launch web browser or market.

Im just about ready to give the whole thing up, but you have all worked so hard and many of you have had good luck, so Im hoping someone can suggest something I havent tried, or a different method, or even a link to something I can read up on to help. Any advice would be greatly appericiated. Thank you for your time and again to all the people working on this, great job!

anyone tried the 12/04 system.sqsh yet?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ksaxe:
I have experienced the same thing after loading various updates and apps from the "Market" ... I would recommend erasing your SD card ... then recopying the 4/8/10 build. Then go to "Market" and install Google Maps ... test the Google Maps ... it should work fine (using the data network or non-wep Wi-Fi) ... go back to "Market" and download your apps one at a time (rebooting and testing after each app to determine which app is causing the location function from working correctly)

I found several apps that caused Google Maps' and News & Weather's "location" feature to stop working - example latest FaceBook, previous version of FourSquare, etc.).

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] totriz:
Re: [CAB] Project Android Port and Startup Utility [03/31/10] NOW SUPPORTS CDMA!

man, I hadn't tried android in a long time on my tp2. it's great to see so much progress.

I used the cab, auto update, and done!, It's working great, a lot faster than I remembered. It just needs sound and I will use it as the main OS on my phone. Don't need gps, camera or battery info since I use my phone for internet, messaging and music mainly, and I have a spare battery in case it drains during the day.

also, the phone doesn't get hot anymore! that was the thing that kept me from using android more often.

now I'm posting using the XDA app for android, works like a charm also.

thanks to everyone that makes this possible on our phones. I really don't want to switch to an official android phone and lose the excellent keyboard on the rhodium

I'm so impressed with the work you all have done to get it to this stage, it runs like an absolute dream and I can't believe how much is working! Shown a few of my mates and they cant believe it either, everyone thinks its emulated, and they dont realise that all settings/apps etc are persistent after each reboot!

Sorry if this has already been answered, but is it possible (and if so is there a plan to) make Android be the only OS on there and scrap WinMo off completely?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] M_T_M:
YEP!! get an Android phone to begin with.... :D

I mean..c'mon, is it not the reason to have a WiMo phone to mess with it's OS in so many different ways? Think about it... :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Yes, the newest download is always in the first post. Then you just use the update tool to get the newest of the file system. There should be a new update fairly soon, but they are working the bugs out of a few things and testing before they give it the OK. :)

Thanks guys for your hard work. im new in this things so 1 question DO I HAVE TO FLASH MY ROM (considering that im using an official HTC Touch Pro 2 Win 6.5 ROM)or anything that might cause me to lose my official ROM ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] PlackSlayer:
The update tool is part of the Launcher in WinMo. Just click "Menu -> Update"

--PS
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vipers82:
So it has to be updated before launching Android? Maybe that's why I couldn't find it. I thought that it was a function in the Android menu. Thank you for the quick response and tolerance of my ignorance.
