im really looking forward to beeing able to use GPS.

I have problem where im not able to unlock screen, anyone else noticed this?
[Touch HD Android Development] nerd6373:
Ive noticed that...Ive also noticed that when I try to turn it off it doesnt...all it does is act like it is but stays on the shutdown screen all day until I actually go and soft reset
[Touch HD Android Development] psycho_terror:
new build is very fast!

widget menu is still pretty crashy, as are some of the widgets themselves, especially the homescreen google search.

getting closer to everyday usable, but not quite there yet.
[Touch HD Android Development] [ACL]:
I could have sworn this was fixed already. I think think the lines below arent included in the community init.eclairhero.rc in the rootfs. This is whats needed for the shut down.

service shutdown /system/bin/shutdown

user root

group root

disabled

oneshot

hi guys have anyone tried this on the xperia x1 yet.If so how? i really LOVE this ui :D
[Touch HD Android Development] klinux:
I already see someone's report that he try it on kovsky and kernel is compatible too, so try it and report feedback ! :)

Is it easy to fix the G-sensor issue?

Besides that I really like this.. If we can get GPS as well its not log before I go android all the time....
[Touch HD Android Development] Dynamic_d:
Hi guys Im geting the same memory error with not enuff space. any1 know how to fix this with the new build?? cheers
[Touch HD Android Development] phhusson:
What's this issue ?

Stop repeating yourself.
[Touch HD Android Development] rajackar:
I was just wondering the same thing. I guess it's a bit more complicated then you might think or it would be fixed by now ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] la3bna:
The issue with G-sensor I explaied before but here goes again...

If I use bubble the spirit level is upside down when I look at the screen rigth side up (if you understand it, if not I will try to elaborate)
[Touch HD Android Development] phhusson:
I don't understand, but I kind of get the idea

In startup.txt, you have gsensor_axis=XXXX option.

Try to remove it, it should not be needed for blackstone.
[Touch HD Android Development] dzeen:
guys, can you pls check installing apps from market on latest builds? seems like it's not a common issue for all users
[Touch HD Android Development] la3bna:
Ok ill try to remove it. the thing is that the axis that run longside the screen (power to usb plug) is reversed..

I see that two of the axis are with - in front in the startup file.

test with g-sensor bla bla bla part of cmd line in startup removed, result NO changes
[Touch HD Android Development] la3bna:
when i look in the folder /system/bin/ there is no shutdown... Cant say I find the init.eclairhero.rc file either EDIT: Found it

Shall i just add in the text at the end of the file??
[Touch HD Android Development] [ACL]:
the init.eclairhero.rc was just patched thanks to phh.

I'll see what happened to the missing shutdown file.
[Touch HD Android Development] rajackar:
Just removed the line to test on my Raphael but no difference. Seems the x and y axles are mixed up.

No mayor issue of course but if a setting in startup.txt could fix it it would be appreciated.
[Touch HD Android Development] phhusson:
Maybe just change the signs, or even the value.

Have fun, there are circa 80 possible values :p
[Touch HD Android Development] Buembel:
so is this sense here rosie or some wvga sense from newer android devices? :p
[Touch HD Android Development] DanBergundy:
Where do I find the orginal sense files before they were resized, etc. Where did it come from?
[Touch HD Android Development] [ACL]:
Yes you can just add it in the services section.

Good thing its there. i was wondering how files can just disappear. lol
[Touch HD Android Development] nerd6373:
Just started replaced the system.sqsh file and here to report back

TP2 -Verizon

Working:

Boot: Yes,it boots in landscape

Speed: Very Fast!! I can see the difference since the last build

Data: Ok

Wifi: Yes (no WEP)

Reboot: No

Sleep: Yes

Battery: At 5% - frequent "low battery" pop-ups, <-- DRIVING ME NUTS!! (Cant find a way in the settings to turn off the battery dying notice...help!!)

Sound: calls-very low, no external sound

Also: The home screen is perfectly aligned when not in landscape, but when I take out my keyboard and flip it to landscape, the clock goes to the left and half of the icons at the bottom isnt shown (bottom taskbar with tab, phone, and add widget goes over them)
[Touch HD Android Development] cor4twenty:
so how'd you do this? I've done several combinations of files but after the HTC screen my screen goes black and that's all she wrote. Thanks!!
[Touch HD Android Development] klinux:
add htc_battery_smem.fake=1 to your startup under cmdline it'll show u system charging even if it's unplugged and keep battery warning from showing every min !

how do i import my contacts from my sim.

nvm it somehow started working
[Touch HD Android Development] nerd6373:
have patience

its first time..it takes a really really really long time so let it sit ... you will realize afterward the reason it takes so long is because its unloading loads and loads of files need to run hero onto the sdcard
[Touch HD Android Development] jopherr:
yea it makes the build crash when i open up the market.

for me at least
[Touch HD Android Development] fastrat350:
really dig the new speed but i was wondering if there is a fix or am i still having an isolated issue, but with this build i get the same issue with marketplace installs. I get an "insufficient storage available" message. Is this a known problem, i mentioned before this update also but havent seen a reply to my problem. thanks for all the work.
[Touch HD Android Development] jopherr:
hm my marketplace crashes my xdandroid after i open up marketplace . idk whats wrong

ok so my xdandroid crashes after i click on the search button in the marketplace.

[crashing as in. it reboots... back to the hero bootscreen]
[Touch HD Android Development] cbo02:
Error? im to new to know

I got it to work and boot after a long wait but I keep getting a error- (The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.)

I keep hitting ok but it keeps popping up.

In between hitting ok the system seems to work ok.

Full battery charge

No sound.

No WiFi.....
[Touch HD Android Development] la3bna:
I was wrong about the G-sensor axis (or i fixed it) cous it works perfectly in teeter, so I got to talk to the people behind bubble..

AT&T Tilt2 using system1304.sqsh and zImage.20100413_003458

Boot: Yes

Speed: Great, much better

Data: Ok, after manual APN setup

Wifi: Untested

Shutdown: No

Sleep: Yes

Rear speaker: No

Camera: No

GPS: Untested

Market: Download & install OK, search still resets the device.

Klinux, is it possible to have default APNs already included?
[Touch HD Android Development] dzeen:
an update from me on android market issue:

after installing the latest system1304.sqsh and zImage20100413, the "insufficient storage available" bug has gone, now the apps get installed correctly.
[Touch HD Android Development] fastrat350:
alrite thanks for the tip, im gonna try the diff zimage...............booting......

well no go for me, still gave me the same bug, did u delete your data.img? or just install the zimage

UPDATE: I deleted my data.img and now my marketplace bug is gone, i can install apps, YAY, but the search does cause a reboot, but atleast i can install now, woot woot
[Touch HD Android Development] elroy944:
is your wifi working on tp2?? i also have an tp2(rhod100) but no wifi for me, just the message "cant start wifi"

speed seems the same on rhod100, not much difference. the shield thing is gone yay, and the menu is new better, you have the option to choose rosie or just normal homescreen.

Also searching in marketplace will still get you into an reboot. I didn't delete data.img, should i?
[Touch HD Android Development] dzeen:
fastrat350,

yep, sorry, forgot to mention that i'd deleted data.img, of course :)

anyone knows where Sense UI settings are? and how can i disable weather animation which starts every time i wake up the device?
[Touch HD Android Development] fastrat350:
thanks man, yeah i went ahead deleted it just to see, and worked, for some reason though my weather is not updating, not sure about that, but ill just wait and see, not really important

EDIT: It seems after the market crashed and rebooted my android, something got dropped, and was causing a 3G communication error, since for some reason couldn't communicate properly, i just restarted android and everything works fine now, except ofcouse marketplace search.

Thanks klinux! and contributing parties
[Touch HD Android Development] bread22:
I tried on my diamond, it boot up w/ no problem, and data is working, looks very promising, thank you klinux!

In android there are two accelerometer devices, orientation and accelerometer itself.

You can have orientation correct (which is used by most games), while accelerometer is wrong. You just need two minus signs on the right places :p

What about htc sync

Its really great.

This is my 3rd trial with android-builds on my blackstone.

i love it.

I use wifi,market and so on, but i can't get HTCSync to work.

Is there a device restriction in the PC-Software ?

or is it not working on the blackstone?

I gotta 2 problems with this fantastic work...

1)it does not see my SIM contacts...

2)it does not let me search on the market...

are there any solutions for this??

htc sync

Thank you for your feedback klinux.

2 friends of mine have a hero , both using htcsync to sync their outlook

and it works fine.

but, i tried droid explorer, it did not find a device while my blackstone

is connected.

There is even no usb Activity on the pc, also when i start the usb mounter

on the phone it tells me: ... connect usb first ...

So it looks like that the usb on the phone is not avtivated,

but battery loading works via usb from the pc.

Do you have any suggestions ?

werniandro
[Touch HD Android Development] lovefromsky:
Make sure your phone is connected to PC thorugh active sync

Start haret and when you get into android, your phone will be recognised

charging

:(No Matter how i tried, the charging process doesn't seem to work.

i can live without ring tone or sound, but without the charging function, it is being difficult to use this ROM.

overall, it is the best ROM i ever found on internet.....;)

Market search workaround

Market search workaround:

On my tilt2, trying to search Android Market causes a reset. You can search the Market using the Internet browser. Type:

market://search?q=

into the address bar and put your search term after the equals sign. IE, to search for RSS readers, you would type:

market://search?q=rss

and press enter. The Market app will open with the results.

I'm from Russia. I have problems on my HTC touch pro (raph100) - do not always work correctly lights, lock shows how to WVGA (bottom) can only hard to unlock the keyboard :(
[Touch HD Android Development] Star-Lite:
Im using this build on my HTC TP2 (XDAndroid TP2 build with this system.sqsh) and ot works quite fine and smooth. The main problem is that sense often 'crashes' and just doesn't come back. I can still pull down the top bar and do stuff from that (open the task manager etc). But since sense is the only way to access the app launcher, I cannot do anything else with the device really.

Still a great improvement over stock android! :D

Leave it compressed, do not unzip it and place it in the root of your sd card with all the other files.

not for me. i tried the three latest zimage/modules, didnt work.

then i took the newest rootfs.img and it worked.
[Touch HD Android Development] klinux:
that's what I told earlier, it's rootfs related not kernel related

new startup files package

Hi guys,

thx to Phhusson, I tried the system with overclocking it to 650Mhz and the result was fabulous, the system is way smoother than before ! :D

for those who know howto do it just add acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=650000 to your cmdline on startup

for others download it from the 1st post. Of course do it at your own risk ! :) (but it will be worth a try )

Please try it and give feedback

stay tuned

Klinux
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
Do we have concrete proof that overclocking is genuine? there seems to be some debate as to whether it a) is actually genuinely possible, b) Has any performance impact.

It would appear from your post that there are some quite tangible positive effects, and yet there are other posts refuting the very thought of overclocking being valid. (The debate appears to be around some clock divider settings allowing higher values to be configured, but whether they have any effect or not).

I am not saying it's untrue! please don't think that, but can you be SURE it's not placebo?

I'm going to try it myself ;-)... curiosity has gotten the better of me!
[Touch HD Android Development] klinux:
I did a benchmark with benchmark app (u can download it from the market) and it gives better results with overclocking and to be sure I used the system with and without it it was smoother

just try it with my latest build it's worth a try

Klinux
[Touch HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
But, the debate claims that the benchmark app itself is relying on data returned from the OS which WILL report a faster speed than is really happening... i.e. the entire OS thinks it's running faster, but the hardware tells the truth and runs at regular speed.

I've just tried it (not on your build, but a different one, with today's kernel, and yesterday's root etc).... I can't tell. I'm not sure if it's placebo for me... grrr it's very annoying! lol.

It's funny though, because I've seen folks reporting dramatic speed improvements in the kernel when according to the change notes, no code was modified!... so you just can't trust people!!! lol
