I have been very busy lately but I will have the next release ready in a few days.

I have added froyo support, memory tweaks, and override settings.

if there are any other features you would like to see, feel free to request.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
Version 0.3 (07-29-2010)

-Now Supporting Froyo

-New Advanced Settings for things like Clock speed and Memory.

-Added a Date Stamp option for output filename.

-Removed internal Error checking

problem 0.3

hi man, i love your work and i want to thank you for this...

but am i the only one having problem with 0.3 version?

the window size is too little and i can't see all the options, no problem with 0.2

thanks again

ps xubuntu 10.04
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
wow thats strange...

What resolution are you using?

I tried changing to several screen resolutions on my laptop and

none of them change the way the program looks.

maybe it is xfce? I am on gnome desktop (standard ubuntu 10.04)

I will fix this ASAP.

Edit: confirmed... xfce is the problem.

not sure why that would make a difference but I will fix it so it will work.

in the meantime if you want to still use it, you will need to switch to gnome or maybe kde.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Fatt0:
thank you very much, i'll try gnome asap on my eeepc.

by the way, i think my resolution is 1024x600 (not 100% sure)

last thing, don't know if it's possible...could you make a .rpm package to use with fedora? (that's my os)

ps. sorry for my buggy english :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
I report the same problem using uBuntu 9.10 gnome desktop, there must be something else.

May be could you simply make the main window resizable ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
Fixed Window issues...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
I tried to make rpm and it seemed to work OK...

but I need to add files for it to work.

.debs are easy. just open deb with archive manager and add files.

I am not sure how to do that with rpms...

I will look into it and post when I figure it out.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
Unless there are any new advances in nbh development

or if someone has issues with this latest version of NBHCreatior,

I will be focusing on the cross-platform version.

As for how to program it I am looking at MonoDevelop.

it seems to be suitable for this and I played around with getting the GUI setup today.

However, I am new to C# and .net so I may be fooled.

if anyone has any other suggestions Please do suggest.

my background is mainly in BASIC and its varieties.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
Great thanks.

I still have a question : Now, I can select the zimage, but the output appears on desktop (not possible to select an output folder) and is named as the distribution chosen (eg Froyo) with no date stamp nor extention. (regardless of the option chosen). Is this normal ?

I don't have flashed my phone to test (don't want to risk a brick if I did something wrong).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
None of that sounds good at all...

I will look into that immediately.

although I am not sure where to start being that I confirm everything

works for any device, any build and with any setting.

output folder should be selectable

date stamp should work

and I have no Idea why it would use disto as a filename...

Like I said it all works for me.

I am on ubuntu 10.04 gnome.

are you still on ubuntu 9.10?

I am going to try on my wifes computer she is still on 8.04

other than that I did delete some erroneous files in the last build.

that may be the problem...

but I am still confused on why mine works perfect then?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
OK....

it also works fine on my wifes computer. w/8.04

Did you uninstall the older version before installing the new one???

if not, could you try uninstalling first, then reinstalling version 0.3b.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
mmh, I'm not very used to Gdebi. I usually don't use it. So I had to read a bit in uBuntu forums. Now I uninstalled nbhCreator and reinstalled it. I get to choose the output folder, but he output actually get on the desktop folder and is simply nmed froyo (no date stamp).

As I previously installed the new version without uninstalling the previous one, it may be possible that using synaptic to uninstall doesn't work completly and correctly.

I'll try to find a way to completly remove all nbhcreator remains before reinstalling one. this might be tricky if I really mess up using Gdebi.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
I really don't know why your having problems with this.

I have installed on 3 different machines using 4 different OS.

ubuntu 8.04, 9.10, 10.4 as well as antix (mepis)

all installed and worked fine producing correctly named files with date stamp.

I am unsure how it is even possible that it is creating a file called froyo.

it isn't in the code to write that anywhere.

for that part of the file name I don't use variables. it is hard-coded to write

either VOGUIMG, POLARIMG or KAISIMG and then a variable for the datestamp.

how it is getting the froyo part to even write is beyond me.

and it shouldn't write to the desktop unless you select that as a destination.

when I use synaptic to uninstall a program I select "Mark for complete removal"

so it gets rid of everything.

being that the older version had more files in it. that may be the issue.

and now uninstalling the newer version doesn't know to delete those files.

maybe try uninstalling new version... then re-install old version... then "completely remove" old version... then reinstall new version.

if that doesnt work then all I can say is I am working on the crossplatform version

and maybe that will work better for you.

I am very curious if anyone else is having this same problem???
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
that's exactly what I think the problem is. But I didn't save the previous version. Do you have a link to where you keep the old version (sourceforge ? )

As for my strange issue, I tried to rename the zimage file I use (it is named zimage-froyo). I still get a file called froyo on desktop. If I choose a donut android version, I get 'froyo' either... 8°

Could it be that I use a localized (french) uBuntu setup. (could be confusing the software depending how it is made, but I doubt it)

I really think the problem comes from me messing up with gdebi...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
OK...

I don't have the old version with me right now.

however, I think I found the problem.

the only way I have been able to reproduce this problem is when I try saving the output to a folder that is on the desktop.

Although, my file is named "untitled" not "froyo" but either way its not being named correctly.

when I save directly to the desktop or any folder that is not on the desktop it works fine.

I haven't looked into why it does this yet, But if this is the problem I will get it fixed ASAP.

other than that, the file that gets wrote to the desktop should still be a valid NBH file. you can verify it with a hex-editor.

just rename to POLAIMG.NBH or what ever you need.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
I confirm it works fine when the zimage is on the desktop and the output folder is the desktop. It's also working with the zimage and the output.nbh in any folder that is not on the desktop (meaning that don't have the desktop in its pathname).

I'm going to flash my phone :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
Great news...

I will fix it ASAP.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
i have been out of town for a few, so I will update as soon as I get back.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
I have been unable to work on this at all lately...

and by the lack of community interest I will probably stop development all together.

It does what I want and I will continue to use it for my own needs.

but unless I get some requests I will not be updating this anymore.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
Well, I don't think there's a lack of interest in your job, simply it works.

Now for a question that may be out of the subject. If I'd like to change the key mapping, is it the Zimage that have to be changed ? If so, may be would it be possible to add it to NBHCreator option...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] zenity:
Actually I have noticed that some tools are like that, they work so well that the author does not receive much feedback, since 90% of the time feedback is in the form of bug reports or support questions.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
I do have some more ideas for future development but I am unsure when I will be able to return to it. I am going to be really busy the next month or so. but I will continue to post whatever changes I do make.

as for the desktop folder issue I haven't been able to pin down why it freaks out like that... so until I get some time on my hands just continue to avoid saving the output to a folder on the desktop. any place else seems to work fine.

keymapping is done in /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl

and if anyone has any easy ways to make this multi-platform I would like to hear suggestions. I don't really have time to learn new languages right now...

thanks

Having trouble with NBH creator on Kubuntu 10.04.1

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
there has been a lot of changes to the kernel as well as its associated files on the newer zImages.

The last zImage I can confirm to work is dzo's zImage-froyo-26-07-10.

I will try and get this updated in the next week or so. until then, try using the "nbh editor" program.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jvscorp:
hi you can put htc niki support for the creator????
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
Hy,

Do you plan to give further support to your great app ? I'd really like to see the newest kernel supported. I had better result so far with NBHcreator than with NBH editor.

Thank you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
I certainly do plan on developing this further...

I know its been a while but I just started a new job, I will resume this ASAP...

Hopefully it will still be relevent by the time I get this updated...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ZeGuido:
Thanks mnjm9b,

I certainly won't blame you for not having time to developing for those that aren't able to do it by themselve (as I).

I hope you have an interessing position and no boneheaded boss.

God luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mnjm9b:
Is anyone still using this???

in the midst of my time away here I went and got a new phone so I no longer will be supporting this.

I know that atools works pretty well

but I am not sure if you can load your own kernel into that.

if anyone wants the source for this, I will be more than happy to share it. (although it is very messy code... :o )
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] xteejx:
I still use this (and perhaps some devs) to create latest kernel nbh's from git to stay bleeding edge. If you could upload the source somewhere like git, I'm sure the community could do something with it, since some devs will probably use it themselves. We could be self-supporting then with this NBHCreator :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
Since HTC has not yet provided the source code for the updated kernel (2.6.29-bc0d2cff) that ships with the 2.1 update, I'm putting up this thread to document my requests that they provide it. Once again, they're giving me the run-around.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jporter12:
After a quick look there, you may also want to send your request to "customer service" as that's where they state to contact in my phone. I'm running a 2.1 rom (Fresh) and don't know if that info varies any or not. At any rate, a good support person would have "not gotten into the semantics of it" and given you this information, or looked into it further and let you know that. I'm not sure if contacting CS would get you any further or not...

FAIL on the part of this HTC support person...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
I did go to "Customer Service". Their "E-mail Support" option is the same place as the Tech Support system. Apparently the rep doesn't know what his job is.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fortune82:
I love this. Their own legal team is leading to their downfall.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
I can't take full credit for this approach. The last go-around, I repeatedly had a member of the Google Android team suggest that I "read the legal docs" on the phone. I think I finally caught what he was saying between the lines.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kcarpenter:
In reality the haven't released the code to us because there is a giant sectionof comment in the kernel source that says. and I qoute - "... this line of code is horribly written and would allow for a buffer over run kernel exploit for elivated privledges (i.e. ROOT/TOOR) if a hacker happens to notice the null pointer called *thisIsNotAnExploitLoopHole ..." It then goes on to show the code that can be used to exploit it, but that got lengthy. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srkmagnus:
@OP, very well put. Let's hope for a 2.1 Kernal release very soon.

[Hero CDMA General] poor_red_neck:
I've been using FreshToast for a few weeks now, the latest one.

I have it OC'ed with OC Widget as I was having issues with SetCPU as others are.

One thine I notice is that when I wake my phone up sometimes the CPU usage is very very high, for upto about a minute after waking the phone up. To the point where it is unusable.

I have been using "SeePU" for a while, which puts a nice CPU activity monitor at the taskbar. It uses VERY LITTLE to NO CPU usage (confirmed with the adb shell "TOP" command) never more than 2%.

The other issue I'm having is once or twice a day when I get a phone call, the screen comes on but to the HTC Lock screen. When I pull the lock screen down, its usually a blank screen with a FC dialog saying com.android.phone or something is busy. The ring tone keeps ringing and ringing and ringing. I have to do a battery pull.

I've even ran the phone with NO DOWNLOADED APPS to rule out any variables. Its definitely a bug in the ROM.

Are you getting any of the problems I've listed?
[Hero CDMA General] lineman78:
The symptoms you describe have been noticed by others using setCpu. Another cause that has been discovered is that when using OC Widget DO NOT enable a different setting when the screen is off as this has been proven to cause the wake-up and phone call problem you described.
[Hero CDMA General] srkmagnus:
system_server is being a real pain for me. I found it may have something to do with the location services.
[Hero CDMA General] centran:
I had too many problems so I installed the normal Fresh Rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681856

and then I flashed the OC kernel over that

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=690238

That combo has been working great for me and is basically what Fresh Toast should be.
[Hero CDMA General] lineman78:
I have moved over to Fresh and have been extremely pleased. I think it actually runs faster than Fresh Toast even with correct overclocking(on fresh toast that is). Just remember not to put OC programs on, or it will actually underclock.

[Desire General] herculane:
Hello, it's my first post here so I hope posted in the right section.

I bought a Desire a couple weeks ago, and I week ago, the first problem appeared - I couldn't download applications from Android Market via WI-FI. I turned off the WI-FI and used the HSDPA/GPRS connection from Vodafone.

It worked ok until last night. Now I can't download anything from Market (although I can browse the online applications, but the download doesn't start), even if I use WI-FI (tried with several connections) or the network connection (tried with Vodafone and Orange).

It's very weird, because any other application can access the web or download from it.

Is someone that had the same issue, or knows how to solve it?

Thanks

Are you signed into GTalk? If not, do so, as it often helps.

[Desire General] herculane:
Thanks for the link. Yes, that's the same problem. Unfortunately I have discovered another - I can't launch Google Talk. The screen flickers for a second and nothing happens. I restarted the device, but no improvement :(
[Desire General] foxmeister:
It seems likely then that GTalk is at the root of your problems.

You could try clearing the data in "Google Talk Services" and "Google Talk Storage" in Menu->Applications->Manage Applications to see if that helps.

Failing that, I'd suggest a factory reset.

Regards,

Dave

I'm having really bad battery life. I don't know what it is. When I reboot my phone it will take 10% of my battery. Also my phone will use about 10% of the battery just sitting there.

Is there anything that might improve my battery life? It might be always awake and I don't know about it. IDK.

Also I'm using DarchDroid ROM.

But I don't think it is the ROM for my batter life has been pretty bad on all ROM's.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
I started seeing much better battery life when I stopped using systray monitor, if you use it try going a day without it.

ALSO have you calibrated your battery??? This is essential if you have wiped battery stats in recovery. I mistakenly thought it was good to wipe everything before flashing a rom so that's what I did, wiped everything every time I flashed a rom. Little did I know I was jacking my battery usage up by throwing the gauge off by wiping the batt stats.

That's all I got, hope it helps
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarbonKang:

how do I calibrate my battery?

**EDIT** Also does the stock radio give off bad battery life? and does PRL matter to teh Batt life at all? Thanks
