Thanks. I'm not sure if I do the right thing, but I have the windows util 'installed', ie it is a button in programs to fire off the MJGDroidUtil.exe in the andboot folder, and each time there is a new .rar I rename the old andboot and put the new one in place, and the launcher carries on working. Till this time!

I have now got my rhod100_uk in place, and all is well! The launcher that I copied from the other folder just looks a bit empty!

GSM Radio connection isn't any more stable with this new build (ie where the connection drops out and the only reliable way to regain it is to reboot. You can't go into airplane mode and back because it seems to need to say goodbye to the network first, which it can't).

I don't know yet about the GSM data connection stability (ie where the data connection appears to be there but you can't actually use it. Can be fixed by going into airplane mode and back, or connecting to wifi and then turning wifi off again).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tiger2wander:
I did go to airplane mode then go back to enable 3G after I've added the APN for 3G connection in first boot.

In some previous build I was must reboot my phone to get the network working again, but in this and previous build (7/21) I can go airplane mode then go back when signal is drop or lose 3G connection :) but you need to go back (by press back key) after turn airplane on, then go to wireless setting again, in this time it still off, press it and it will on immediately, then press on it again, your wireless connection will back :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xSmooth-:
I'm using the previous BLAZN build. ( not the one released few hours ago )

Going to airplane mode and back fixes my problem, but after a few minutes I'm losing my data connection again.

And that is weird because it was working all night.

edit: after updating via the utility, Android loads good, but while finished it reboots.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JBS2:
Join the club ;)

Have the same problem with "all" releases. Maybe it's an KPN/Hi issue because we are on the same network and most other people don't have this problem.

I downloaded the cab, it installed okay but got stuck in a loop on the animation for about 15mins...

I changed the OC down to 700000 and tried again, then it worked.

Like the new bigger buttons! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Elgavon:
Hey,

What is OC and how can you change it ?

Thanks,

Charging battery in xandroid

Hello,

I've installed the latest 2.2 xandroid BLAZN

When I want to charge the battery, it states directly within a minute the battery is fully charged, when ofcourse I know this isn't possible.

Is there a fix for this?

Kind Regards,

using: HTC touch pro 2 (rhodium100)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mxxcon:
um, cdma tp2 don't have fm radio so its impossible for something not to work if it doesn't exist.

zoombar is part of the touchscreen. for it to work, touchscreen and os drivers will need to be modified, and applications will need to support it. and that's not going to happen.

not a major deal, but in the past few releases, i can't sync with my facebook account. I can log in with the facebook app, but when i try to add the account through settings, i click on facebook, and it just returns to the add account screen with nothing happening. is there a fix or is anybody else experienceing this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Atmosphere:
My previous startup.txt looked like this:

--------------------------------------------

set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 2292

set initrd initrd.gz

--------------------------------------------

I changed:

acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=716800 to

acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=700000

Then it worked... it has to be saved as plain text and not rich text.

Formatting card now, looking forward to a new clean build!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hreiner:
I downloaded both BLAZN and "normal" latest releases but installation fails for both without any explanation.

I did reinstall the previous release with no problem.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
You can use the update utility on the old blazn build to update your initrd.gz and rootfs.

Thats what I did, you get the performance increase, just dont get the theme changes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] damage_them:
for some reason..i have no internet connection on the new build...i tried both cab and rar..im on sprint..any one knows why??...only wifi works for me..not 3g..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Banditd:
All versions of Froyo I tried until now do regular reboots - one or twice a day. About once a week for example LauncherPro closes. Today I watched the log before a reboot and a fc and saw this exception: http://pastebin.com/PLBJyC9B.

I was to slow to get more from the reboot, tons of logs ... actually I have no idea about the system but do we have swap? If not is it possible to add some? Would be interesting to see if the reboots are gone then.

I don't use any apps for memory management - should I?

Edit: I use [MJG]Rhod.2.2BLAZN.081710.rar at the moment. Seems to be not more or less stable than older versions (but in call volume hurts ...).

Edit2: Stacktrace moved to PasteBin
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xSmooth-:
I did that too, it keeps rebooting my phone after running Haret.exe

Yeah well that sucks then..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
I have tried this twice. And can confirm that I get an infinite boot-loop on first boot after creating the data.img. Rhod210, Not overclocked. sleepmode 1. I am diving into Dalvik Debugging right now to find out why my Wifi works great in WinMo, and Can't scan and times out in Android.

Wish me luck!

P.S.: Reefer: I am liking the slight changes to the green and progress bars. And the checkboxes and tabs are all lined up, YAY!

Where would I need to copy my Smokin Startup animation, That is the only thing I want to change for my personal system.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] 19ninety:
dunno if i'm mising something but following the instructions on the website and after fresh installing the zip version (drag / drop andboot to sd card) theres no MJGDroidUtil.exe in the folder....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] adamsmiley:
I have experienced this from when I started using 2.1 I just thought that has never worked. It would be nice thought.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ramma2:
Install is all finished, love the new speed and theme overall. Got all my apps installed and working, loving it!

Thanks for your hard work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Did you try reading the FAQ? More specifically the part about data connection... and even more specifically the part about cdma connection... that's what the FAQ is for.

I personally stick Auto Memory Manager into my BLAZN builds, but you could also use Advanced Task Killer.

XDAndroid 787MHz BLAZN
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
Just a thought, But have any of you tried to install the Facebook App from the market? That might fix it for ya.

:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
I used the WM application to uninstall my old version of xdandroid and downloaded the newest version, installed it and it worked fine. I don't really notice and speed increase from the old blazn to this version. I didn't do anything special to my SD card like partition and all that, so maybe that is why I don't see a difference.

Besides the look, the main difference that I noticed is the in-call volume is headshaking loud.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Volume is controlled by the kernel, so its not really a system build thing, any ext2 you used would be this loud using newest zimage/kernel. :)

The main speed increase is going to be with a new Rootfs.img. If you dont want the new theme changes, you can just update your rootfs from the project tracking page.

For those of you missing the startup utility in the rar, i will reupload today with the needed parts. If you wanna take it out of an older system these are the files/folders you need from inside of "andboot"

Folder:

Families

Files:

MJGDroidUtil.exe

apps.xml

backgroundworker.dll

ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
I tried changing the incall volume by putting the HTC_HW.call.... into the startup text but when I rebooted it gave me an error saying "Uknown keyword htc_hw"
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Ive heard this doesn't work for everyone anyways.

Just makes sure you typed it in correctly and it may be case sensitive (linux usually is)

htc_hw.call_vol=x
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] shlurpee:
Yep, that's exactly how I did it except I replaced x with 3. Does it matter where I put it? I put it immediately after the acp overclock line.

Even if I can't adjust the volume, I like it being this better than the way before. I can always pull the phone away from my ear if it gets too loud.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] djstoffe:
Can someone please explain simple why does it work to power off the device when running Markinus builds (1.6) but not in any other versions?

Is it not possible to implent that function from the working builds? Or is 1.6 and 2.0.1 so different from each other?

And ofcourse I would like to send a big thank to all developers working on this project!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
for the most recent builds, it should be -1,-2,3 right?

pm.sleep_mode=1 goes in the cmd line right? and does accelerometer work yet in the recent builds? im using a Feb 4th XDAndroid package, and a Feb 19th zImage from glems site..

do u still have to turn off Auto Backlight in WM first before u boot haret?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mrj:
Perfect! Thank-you very much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
So many questions...

all answered in the thread, and pretty recently too...

some answers were only a couple pages back...

here they are again...

-1,-2,3 are old settings, now these need to be set to "gsensor_axis=2,1,3"

Yes pm.sleep_mode=1 goes in the command line, unless you want to change the actual command manually.

Yes the accel works, with the newest system.sqsh, and the gsensor settings set correctly above.

That feb 4th build is ridiculously old, try one of my cabs, or the rar.

Yes, you do have to disable auto-backlight in WinMo
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
thx alot for the info.. i haven't been using Android as much since there was the same problems with every update.. but now i see GREAT progress recently.. and i probably missed some info, since i skim thru some post sometimes.. but once again, thx!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Teddyg1989:
Hey guys im completely new can someone explain how I get android on my tilt 2? and is there a full version yet?

Oh no.....

Send me a Private Message.... this is gonna take a while. :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xxjoshuaaxx:
Lol we went through the same thing. You know you love us newbies. :) I just asked a dumb question, though. :p

Edit: I have a question! Does charging work, at all? A few builds ago I noticed charging didn't do much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cris_rowlands:
Hiya, I'm just wondering if there is any way of relocating buttons, my end key is on/off and my power key is home. it would bebetter the other way round. Is this just me or is it something that will change in future builds?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
This is the way native Android devices are set up, with the end/power key linked.

Hello,

excuse my bad english.

First: Great job.

Second: On my Rhodium 100 (german,eplus,internet flat) works XDAndroid (Ver.02222010-xdandroidRhod100uk.fr.de.cab) good.

I had problems with the connection to the internet. I get no connection and i have no possibility to edit the APNs-data, because the folder is black and blank.

Network is choose as eplus mobil and it is registreted at the network.

Perhaps anybody can help me.

Start ok, telephone ok.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cris_rowlands:
Dont they normally have a home button which takes them home, and a power key which turns the screen on/off?

What I have is my end key turning it on & off

and my power button takes me home

I would have thought it would be the other way round for ease of use?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sd73ta:
:) you are a very patient person lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vasiabikeru:
Hey guys. Nice job with the porting I must say. I managed to install XDAndroid to my Sprint Rhodium, but I have a hudge problem. I can't get no GSM signal. I am in Romania and my carier is Orange. Can someone point me in the right direction? I have tryied searching for networks but that goes forever and doesn't find anything. Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jsmith8858:
However, in this scenario, you would need to press the POWER key to end a call.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] moneymatt05:
Ill just be glad when the final build is ready. I love my TP2 with winmo on it but android will make me love it even more. Keep up the good work devs
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dicko99:
I'm sure I'm being dumb here...

but how do install the apps that come in the cab file?

The latest cab version doesn't seem to have a file browser preinstalled and I can't download one from the market place due to the t-mobile connectivity issue that I'm experiencing...

R.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] flow-er:
Good Work ~
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zuch0698o:
honestly not much you can do without connectivity as you need to be able to access the market to get a file explorer... 'know if the .apk can be preloaded thoug,h not as familiar with win mobile I only code linux

and too the devs amazing work and thank you for your perseverance with this project... still havent been told whom i have to pay for this.... and after its all said and done the only thing missing is ........ sound hahaha
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hreiner:
I wish I knew how to do that :o)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hreiner:
how to do that ? can't find any "update" on my old BLAZN !?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Simple, just run mjgdroidutil.exe (its in the andboot folder) while youre in windows, press menu > update.

DO NOT UPDATE ZIMAGE/MODULES USING THAT TOOL. ONLY ROOTFS AND INITRD WILL WORK.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Atmosphere:
I must say, I also had ZERO internet 1st time round after formatting the SD card. I have a GSM Rhod100, and it was definitely set to GSM in startup.txt... i rebooted it to see what was going on in the startup.txt, it was all correct, so i didn't change it.

Next time i booted into it, internet worked.

Maybe it has something to do with initial boot / reboot?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] damage_them:
Yea after some trouble shooting I got the internet working now
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
Shutdown working with newest kernel!

@Reef

Since shutdown is working using the newest zImage, will we be getting a "Reboot" option now when holding the "End Call" button, so we can choose to either shutdown or Reboot to Windows (even though I understand the "Reboot" function hasn't actually been added to the kernel yet)? Thought it might be a good idea to add as a preparatory step for when it IS working :). I've seen the reboot option in the neopeek builds (though I don't think the functionality was any different than the "reboot" function at the time)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Im sure that will be added to the XDAndroid repo soon, but is not in there yet. Also, I sent you that image in your PMs just in case you missed it! :)

The kernel in my 8/17 builds is obviously not the 8/18 kernel that supports shutdown, so i will have to re-upload everything again today (not for you throwback, for others reading). The 8/18 kernel with full shutdown does require deleting your data.img to work (and they dont know why lol).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] imdshiznit:
thanks for the hard work Reefermattness!

8/18 build works great on my Sprint TP2!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
np, thanks for the feedback!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SublimeMogul:
Sim Card and 3g

Ok I know I said this before, but this latest update has allowed me to use my phone and my 3g connection in Android with the sim card installed. I don't know if its just me, but this time even after installing applications and messing with it for over an hour now I still have 3g with the card in. Just thought I keep you guys up on whats going on for me.

Now all that said this is not the same TP2 I was using with sprint before when I got 3g working with the sim in. I recently had some issues with my first TP2 and had to do an advanced exchange with sprint to get a new one. Also it works with my old sim card and my new sim card not that it really matters.

Thanks everyone for all the work thats been put in here. Reef your design is fantastic keep up all your great work and I hope you're loving SC2!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hreiner:
many thanks for the tip

I never noticed that the launcher app has a "menu" where you can "update" easily.

it worked fine this time ! :-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Glad that those new fixes are working for you! (they are a week or 2 old, I forget to announce CDMA things as much as i should, apologies)

I am loving SC2, its almost perfect. Only thing, after 10 years in the making they still cant get in game voice chat to work. I guess that's what ventrilo and patches are for! haha :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
Reef, thanks for all your effort you have been putting on this project, really. I have a question for ya, does your new build runs faster than neopeek's build? I haven't gotten a chance to try this at home. Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Its very close. What happened was that in trying to set up the xdandroid partition builds they realized why that type of build was so much faster than the image file type builds. They were able to go into rootfs and fix (enable/disable a feature, im not sure what) some of the speed issues where there was too much thrashing of info in the image loopback. Now we are very close to as fast (if not the same speed). And I test just as high in linpack as i did before on the partition build: 4.9-5.4@787MHz.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
How do you guys made it to run more faster than the previous builds? if you don't mind me asking..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] juliocho:
OK, I'm giving another go on the XDAndroid... but I still think that stability and battery life are the most important aspects to be achieved here!

GREAT job nonetheless, I really appreciate it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] damage_them:
my problem had nothing to do with your port..i got it figured out ..im up and running!! great work mehn!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Thanks Reefer - it was the families folder I was missing. I'll have to switch the icon shortcut to refer back to the startup app now from Haret!

Do you need a new data.img to appreciate the speed increase? I'm not really seeing much difference, though it isn't particularly slow in the first place.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Tumdace:
The only thing stopping me from buying SC2 is the lack of LAN support. Who really releases an RTS and doesnt allow you to play it locally with friends?

Anyways on topic: is the ext2 solution the thing that makes it faster, or is the new installer what makes it run faster?

In order to format and ext2 partition I had to get linux booting up on my laptop, and no matter what I do, I cannot get it to work.

Just wondering if the ext2 partition is required for these new builds or if it will just affect the speed of the build?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
No, forget the partition build even exist. :) This is the normal ext2 cab/rar install like always. The speed fixes are in both a newer system image, and fixes within rootfs.img.

XDAndroid 787MHz BLAZN
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
Neither: read Reefers recent posts.

You just need the one fat partition for all of Reefers builds to date - it doesn't use the neopeek technique.

New Blazn check box

The new blazn check boxes are so big that it covers some of the words.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Yup, noticed that too, ill make em a little smaller next time lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lazyluis32:
is there a way make the backlight on the keyboard light up when it slides up? i cant see the keys at night using android
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
not yet.. the only way is to make sure the keyboard backlight is already lit as u hit haret/run android.. BUT, it ALWAYS stays on.. so u have to chose, more or less battery :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
They keys on my keyboard are wrong, like when I try to press on the numbers I get symbols instead. I have a rhodium, not til2, sprint or verizon..European version
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
So change your startup.txt to match rhod### you have instead of tilt2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
To rhod210 right?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Thats for Tmobile, yeah.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] merkk:
just installed the 0817 blazn build - and so far, not so good. The phone appears to keep resetting or at least the shell or whatever the GUI is called is resetting. I was in a call when all of a sudden the call went dead and then a few seconds later i'm seeing that little animated xdandroid video clip with the phones.

It's done that a few times so far, apparently randomly. anyone else running into this problem? This is on a sprint touch pro 2.

The 0804 blazn build didn't have this problem for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Did you delete your data.img when you updated to the new build?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gmt2001:
I updated to the 8/18 release and the OS refuses to run now. I deleted data.img and cache. Have even tried uninstalling/wiping all of the android stuff. When it starts up the Android OS starts up and i see the status bar the "Android" title bar. The screen flips sideways as if i had my keyboard out and it double-vibrates. then a few seconds later it vibrates once and the phone performs a soft-reset

I am using a RHOD500 and have edited the command line to use stock cpu speed and to ensure that it uses maximum call-volume(5). I am using the BLAZN build
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hello00:
Reef, how can I change back to the previous theme?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Reefermattness:
Maybe try formatting your SD card? How exactly did you update?

The screen will always flip sideways on boot if you don't have the settings > display > orientation set properly.
