They have a sdcard release of sense 2.2 for the HD2 already, I tried the system.ext2 from it but it didn't work. I think it requires kernel 2.6.32.x in order to work correctly. and we don't have that available for Rhodium yet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
Does anyone know how the sound is coming? I have not seen anyone talk about it in a few days.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mrj:
hahah..... Maybe that is because people are sloooooowly getting the idea to shutup about it, it will be here when its here. :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ws6nightcat:
i hate to be the bearer of bad news but getting sound working properly on our phones is a serious software nightmare. i wouldn't expect it to be working for at least a little while. i don't think badgering the dev's will help expediate it either. i'm sure they want it to function as much as we do if not more.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toawkanavngthded:

Don't know what is in the changelog yet. :)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toawkanavngthded:
can anyone help me? im not sure how to install 2.2 on my macbook. i have 2.1 but i did it through my fiance's laptop which was a dell but doesn't have it anymore. any suggestions??

and whoever is running android 2.2 is it great and worth it???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
I am on a mac now, so it is quite easy. You have 2 options.

You can plug the phone in to the computer directly and make sure to select disk drive. Then just transfer the files using the rar onto the sdcard.

Or...you can remove the sd card, and write to it directly, again, using the rar file. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toawkanavngthded:
would u recommend deleting my previous android 2.1 file and starting fresh for 2.2????

EDIT: ok so im such a noob on my macbook cuz i was able to install 2.1 on my fiance's old dell laptop. so i how do i go about even getting the .cab or .rar lol. sorry i for askin
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
Absolutely delete all Android related stuff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toawkanavngthded:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gehzumteufel:
The rar is available at the same download location as the cab.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kawasaki9r:
Go to the first post on this thread and it has a link to Reef's site. You can get it there or here it is: http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/

Also, if you wanted to download right to your phone you could do that too (in Winmo using WiFi is fast). I personally prefer the cab files to the rar, I think it's easier.:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kawasaki9r:
Can you use the auto update to get that? If not, do you just drop the file into your "andboot" directory replacing the rootfs, or do you have to modify it a bit?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
When you extract it and look in the directory, You will see a file like rootfs-xxx.xxx.xxx.img, Just rename it to rootfs.img

This is all in the FAQ for future reference.

EDIT: I think this rootfs update actually does have the experimental "tilt2" kb type also. Fixes for arrow keys and such.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Are you sure? Ive never had any problem with the arrow keys on my tilt2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lilchicano:
he said he thinks doesnt mean that he is gonna be right on that one ya know :P

dam i feel like a crackhead with crack withdrawl just waiting for that new release of yours reefer, cant wait till you finish it up the way you want it :)

and offtopic, how is SC2 like, i keep only hearing positives from people i know
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
OK. It does have the new "tilt2" kb type. But I can't track down what is different about it. I will keep looking.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Yeah I'm just teasing electricjesus. :) **** ive been at the lake for almost a week there is no telling what I missed... I come back and there are 2 more themed versions of AOSP in my TP2 forum. ;) haha

Ill probably put up v1 of my theme today or tomorrow. Its the same thing as that link I put up a week ago. There are only a couple of really small things I want to try and change, but its definitely usable.

SC2 is amazing. I played SC when I was in HS, and LOVED it then. I was talking a lot of **** bout SC2, because it took 10 years to make, and I almost did not buy it. Now that I have it, you can almost see where 10 years of work went. The campaign is amazing, the social networking and friends system is the best i have ever seen. I can add friends from Facebook that have Blizzard.net accounts (not just SC2, also WoW). I can talk to people that are in game playing wow, while I am in game playing SC2. They really put a lot of work into it, and although the gameplay is almost identical to the first game what they did add/change really set it off perfectly with what they already had.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lilchicano:
lol cool to see the theme coming soon. school starts tomorrow for me so a new year and a new theme :P

the game sounds good, i have friend that plays SC and he said that the game is the ****, might have to end up trying it out for myself later on. but yeah i already knew about the real friend ID since i play WoW and got bored the day the patch came out for it and actually read what changed, lol i usually just run it and go do something in the mean time.

Sense 2.1

I know this is a little old school, but I am messing around with the old Sense 2.1 build and I was wondering if I used the update tool would it update everything for me to the newest roofs etc. Also, would that include the battery fix? Thanks for any help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tylerk23:
To anyone who is using sense 2.1 or has used it in the past, will overclocking help very much with how slow and laggy it is? It is so slow right now that i am about to throw my phone!!!:eek::D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
For me, running it at 710 makes all the difference in the world. At 528 its slow, laggy, n I get alot of FC's. But at 710, its reasonably fast, almost no FC. Still I'd love to see a Froyo build w/Sense. Even if its not as fast as the LP Froyo or the new AOSP

I would reeeally love to see the Froyo Sense build from the MyTouch 3g Slide ported to run on our Rhodiums. Its kind of a girly lookin interface on the Slide imo, but just the more I play w that phone the more I like it

Oh n btw from what Ive heard, dont use the updater to update modules, zimage, what I'd do is d/l the latest froyo n just use the modules n zimage from it (just d/l the rar)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tylerk23:
I would love to see a Froyo Sense build too!:D Thanks for the reply and good idea on zimage, roofs, etc. One last question, did overclocking to 710 eat up your battery a lot?

Wifi Tethering works for me using the XDANDROID tether app.. connects to my Xbox Wifi with data throughput also.. DL below.

The Wifi Tether for Root Users app never works for me.. only XDANDROID tether (which is the same app right?) works for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
seems to use a little more battery, but well worth it if you want it to be used daily

You realise that it works for you also, right? Zoom out a lot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hawker180:
Wow tried android on my phone for the first time...its amazing! Such a shame about the speaker not working, other than that its GREAT.

Full credit to everyone evolved in the project!!!!

Really makes me want to upgrade to a new android phone, but I'll miss the slide out QWERTY keypad :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mrj:
Yeah this really frustrates me. GPS used to work within 60secs (ages ago) but now it never gets a signal :mad:

So we are left stranded in the ocean!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
It takes about 10 seconds to work after your first (5 minute) gps lock, which is exactly how winmo works too, but faster. The only difference is that we do not have agps for froyo yet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Bieka:
I've tested Navigon on my TP2 and it works very fine. Sometimes you need to wait a little for a signal but thats ok. But i would recommend that you leave your device on AC Power. Sometimes it freeze when the 15% Battery Warning pops up and you click OK. When you want to see Navigon then it shows up but freezed. A Reboot fixes that but on the road it is not that funny. Especially when the Police is behind you and they turn their beautiful Lights on ;) (FYI: In Germany it costs 40€ getting caught with a phone in your hand while driving. Don't know if this "Law" is everywhere or only in Germany ;) ). I saw that the ppcgeeks are trying to get Information about the adressing in WinMo. Is it a big risk to copy the wrapper on the tp2? I want to help but don't want to get my tp2 crashed ;). And yes i'm to lazy to flash a new rom every day ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Which zimage/modules are you using? As I posted a few days (and many pages!) ago, with the zimage/modules from the 21st July BLAZN I get a fix within seconds, but with the zimage/modules from the one after the LOUD earpiece speaker one, it takes ages to get a fix or more often not at all.

However, others have confirmed this isn't the case for them.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
Sleep Modes: (pm.sleep_mode=) in the startup.txt

This is supposedly for topaz/rhodium that I found on the xda wiki:

* '4' will do "wait for interrupt", no change in arm11's clock or voltage

* '3' will do "wait for interrupt and ramp clock", the arm11's clock is lowered to 20MHz instead of 300-500, and voltage is lowered too.

* '2' will do "app sleep", arm11 is still on, but put into low power mode (registers are still saved)

* '1' and '0' will totally power off the arm11 (so we have to restore registers and things ourself), don't know the differences between them.

Can some one explain this to me better? I just updated to the new rootfs that came out yesterday and now it looks up after being ideal for a while and the only thing I can do is pull the battery. What do I need to change the sleep timer to? I have it set for 2 now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
i assume you are using 2.2 build? mine never looks up after being ideal.;) whatever the sleep mode is when u downloaded it, leave it to that ( i think it is 2). its possible that the default overclock is too fast for your phone, i'd try scaling it back to a lower speed and see if your lockups persist.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
Works for me just fine, after I go outside, run the app and let it sit for about ten min until it gets a gps lock.

:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
Yes 2.2 with the new rootfs "rootfs-20100803-e529592.zip" I have also scaled down my clock to "540672 = 528Mhz Stock speed" because when I had it faster my phone got hot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Nick281051:
idk why but when my end call button stopped working, so did trying to boot into android. now that the button works again, i still cannot boot into android. anyone know why?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
Alright so I am still trying to figure out the subtleties of this program. I updated to the newest zimage but the incall volume is the same as before. Do I need to write the script about volume boost into my startup text or should that happen by itself?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
Hey REEF: Did I see you might have a release coming sometime today? I miss a dark theme :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Yes, I actually just updated the web page, are you watching me? :p

I still need to fix some things, but I figured I have prolonged long enough, you guys can try it. I consider this my Beta, because of the things I have not fixed, or figured out how to skin. Like the big buttons we were talking about, and how the check boxes look good, but the pull-down menus look oblong. Also it still needs our new boot animation added. Even tho Im very nit picky I think this is most definitely useable on a daily basis, my favorite part being the transparent menu tray. There are new screenshots on the download page. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
Not watching you :) It just crossed my mind right then. Cool! I didn't have to wait that one out at all!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
What was added? I have been updating my zImage and roots as they have come out. Should I still update now? Is there a way to update without losing all my apps and settings
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Its just a theme update, check the web page for a list of updates. You can try just downloading the rar and replace your system.ext2 file. It might work, it might not. If it doesn't, delete your data.img file and you'll be good to go.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] atomiq:
i'm anxious for this new phone:

http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/25/htc-vision-headed-to-t-mobile-in-new-spy-shot-dubbed-g1-blaze/

its going to be called either Htc vison or g1 blaze

keep up the good work guys (y)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bmhome1:
Yep. Swapping new system .ext file with current gives the new theme changes and keeps everything else unchanged. Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toawkanavngthded:
i noticed when i first installed blazin 2.2 yesturday, the boot screen just said android. when i booted today the boot screen was a series of different htc phones and said android... and it seemed a lot slower compared to my boot the first time. any suggestions? and is there a way i can get the stock 2.2 dock? still new to android and froyo =)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Boot animation doesn't have anything to do with boot time. :) If its on the creation of a new data.img then it will take MUCH to boot than once it has been previously booted. On the next update that boot animation is going bye-bye anyways.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Problem solved. ClockSync now has a sync on boot option.

Now, surely the text in the FAQ should be changed to reflect this method, as it now allows parity between getting clock synced when rebooting in either direction!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
I am running the overlocked version froyo 2.2, I followed a previous post's changes to stock speed by changing the startup txt, and I also changes the pm_sleep from 2 to 1. But my phone goes to sleep and I can't wake it up. I have to soft reset.

What am I doing wrong?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] buru898:
If you guys want Android to be almost as fast as it running on normal Android phones should take a look at Neopeek's build.

It's at

least

two times faster than the Blazn build! Just have to do a few extra steps to get it to work but damn is it worth it, trust me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
pm_sleep should be 2. Then it won't lock up
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
I was basing my Sleep = 1 on this. I'll change it back to 2 and see if it works, I assumed I had to have it at 1 based on this post.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
Sleepmode 1 works correctly only when the processor is at 528 MHZ. Anything Over or under that, Please use Sleep mode 2. This will make your machine not fall into deep sleep. It has an issue coming out of it when anything but default speed is used.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
Thanks.

That makes sense. Turns out I was trying to put my cpu speed back to stock but I had a digit wrong, which made my sleep=1 the incorrect setting.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
Can you send us the link to that build?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mark_6700:
Uh, thanks for the quick and easy link........................

Meanwhile you got any benchmarks? Or are you just talkin' to talk ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
I think a notable comparison would be BLAZN on a native ext2 build with a swap.

Just like Neocore has set up. Otherwise it is like comparing apples to oranges.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Exactly, just like when we stopped using sqsh files and got a performance increase... That doesn't necessarily mean the build is faster.

And to answer that nagging question I know you are all dying to ask.... Yes, Im working on it. lol Me and electricjesus are trying to figure out exactly whats going on in this process so we can boot my build with this setup. The process of actually formatting your SD card in 3 different partitions is a bit of a pain (not hard, but it does require more work than just installing a cab, the old school way).

noobness goes wiki

dear peple on this forum with the information,

sometimes i feel such a noob when i dont understand the terms you use (WHEN I'M DRUNK I GET GET TO MY ENGLISH VOCABULAIRE) DAMN CAPS..

so.. :( :confused:

for all the cdma boot.fs zimage folder references .. google and wiki asked me to give you guys a patt on the back for all the hits they got from me.

;)

I love the jazz that is XDA
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
It's going to take me about an hour to get to a point where I can start testing it. But I have a good plan of action developing. and I also found quite a few references to help out on the way.

I will report results when finished. My plans are to get it running. then benchmark for us all.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
You should try deleting your data.img from the andboot folder on the root of your sd card. After that it should boot for you

thank you for ur response! i also noticed that on my second boot, the performance seemed a bit slower. when i try to go to different home pages it lags compared to when i first installed 2.2 blazin. and does anyone have trouble trying to get the regular email client working? keeps telling me invalid password or username but i know for sure im typing it in right :cool:

I see i havent been keepin up to date lately. Someone else has a completely different build. Different theming and supposedly faster, based on some members comment..lmao. Some people quick to jump ship...lol. Might tr it out eventually but ive been to preoccupied with this ipad, which im posting from now. I jailbroke it n everything. Tons of customizing. Way better than i thought n super fast. Got it tethered thru win mo xda tethering app. ;-)P. I booted up android the other night. I need to test the wifi tethering apps there to see if those will work also no matter qhat os im in :)p. Also hacking/modifying this ipad is easy as hell. Truely a great experience with it so far.

Anyways, keep up the good wrk. I like the fact that i now have mastered win mo, android, and apple platforms..hahahahahaha. ;-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ebaymarcaro:
Just updated to the latest build. All the major components work well for me (WiFi, voice, 3G). The battery life seems to have improved some, but it still is far from everyday operational for me (drains battery life in a matter of hours). Has anyone worked out further tweaks to extend the battery life for a full day yet?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lilchicano:
i think they got simple info in the FAQ but im not sure myself but what i can tell you is that having it at stock speed, low blacklight, disabling things like gps wifi and things in that category helps out. also having it as pm sleep mode to 1 helps more, but not if its overclocked cause then it wont come back from sleep.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
How do you turn down the blacklight I will try anything to help get a little more time out of the battery? I tryed pm sleep mode to 1 and the first time my screen went off it locked up. Also when I have it set to 2 it locks up after about 1 hour of not using the phone. Any ideas on this one?

Wi-fi

Hi,

I'm really sorry for this post. So, I put the latest .cab file onto my sd card, installed it on my htc pro touch 2. It installed. But when I switch to Android, and go to turn on wifi, it just keeps on scanning and never gives me a list. I also tried leaving internet explorer/opera open on Windows 6.5 and then running Projext Android from the Start menu. Still, the wifi does not work. Did anyone experience this problem or knows a fix for it? I'm really sorry again.
