hi guys,

I have installed without problems using gparted and it works really well.

its now possible to install the bfs patch?

sorry for my bad english
[Touch HD Android Development] htmotor:
I tried to follow the above but not ..:(
[Touch HD Android Development] PANCIO:
is not so strange ...... it always happens to me

try a soft-reset ... only after that ..... run haret.exe from WiMo ....
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Still crashing on my 2 µSD too.

One is class6 8Gb on which i'm gonna try the "msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave" in startup.txt

The other, an old 1Gb no-class has a lot of error to making Android not to boot from HARET.

I don't understand 'cause the BrilliantMystake runs as hell on my Blackstone...

EDIT: nope, still the "waiting for SD card" issue on my class6 8Gb.

I give up...
[Touch HD Android Development] meijerlars:
I've got the same problem only with me it stops with: Rebooting in 7 seconds and after that it stops, i have to do a soft reset to run winmo again. After that I tried it several times, but still the same problem.

I also looked in the lines of the codes cascading downward and when I install the npkinstall.exe is says it cant open the .tar files and it also can't format my ext2 partition.

I also changed my partitions to the ext2, fat32 and the swap partition, and after that when I plug my phone in the computer and choose for the storage card it doesn't recognize it on my computer, only with active sync!

Can someone helf me with this
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
1st partition must be fat32

2nd ext2

3rd linux swap (optional)

It's recommended in neopeek website that ext2 partition must be between 300 and 512Mb, swap partition 64Mb
[Touch HD Android Development] PANCIO:
I'm sorry ... fortunately for me it works.

I've always the problem with mic incall :(:(:(
[Touch HD Android Development] hsiehwenyi:
how can i do with 16GB SD

DEAR N, i am a beginner. how can i format my 16GB SD, instead of only 1GB which is shown on the simple instructions
[Touch HD Android Development] meijerlars:
thank you

Thank you for yout help, I did it:) Neopeek works great, really smooth and fast!
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Last try on my 1Gb no-class with the line "msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave" in startup.txt and it WORKS. Install flawlessly and runs solid now. Have had some crash with the market because dnlding a lot of apps, but now everything's running perfect. :cool:

Nice work I have to say.

EDIT 2: After the whole night plugged, deep sleep has come and I've had to soft reset. 3g Data is still unstable and is lost +/- every 30'.

I can't connect to my WiFi network WPA2 neither, Android find it, try to connect, but give up.
[Touch HD Android Development] Stomatoloq:
please make .cab version for new release
[Touch HD Android Development] andycted:
Blackstone with latest CM6

Writing to system routinely crashes the system, which powers off. Also, it looks like JIT isn't enabled, as I get the same linpack scores as with eclair.

Some other problems I had were with the gallery, but that is just the gallery itself which is even crappier on slow devices (it actually is crap even on my desire...). JustPictures seems to work up to a point where it starts shutting down itself. Given the fact that these are the only two gallery applications on android, I'm pretty much screwed for managing photos
[Touch HD Android Development] meijerlars:
Sam problem here, 3g data is unstable, and the battery is unstable, it jumps from 55 to 34 and then back to 50! Think the battery will always be a problem!

Edit: Incall mic also doesn't work. Checked the kernel but don't understand how to install it? Can someone help me with this?
[Touch HD Android Development] ChochoD:
Anyone, with working market? A can open it , but when i try to download an app , it doesn't start downloading at all. It says it's downloading, but the bar doesn't fill at all...

I'm with blackstone.
[Touch HD Android Development] tobyax:
its now possible to install bfs patch?
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
It works ok for me.

In previous releases sometimes it happened to me but I rebooted or reconnected and then it worked

Has anyone already tried the Camro "global kernel" V5?

Gonna have a try this evening...
[Touch HD Android Development] farukb:
it also happens to me too,but i find a way around it....just activate the loudspeaker and deactivate and you will have the in call mic enabled
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Just swapped Zimage & Module v5. Till now everything seems running prefect and solid.
[Touch HD Android Development] mitikos:
Same problem, same phone...

Ah it also crashes the market sometimes

Any fix ?
[Touch HD Android Development] t0asted:
same problem here, tried a couple different kernals too, no difference...
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
If you're using wifi, you can try deleting wifi config of your network and connecting it again, it worked to me in earlier releases, in this release I don't have problems with market
[Touch HD Android Development] ChochoD:
Yes, the market crashes often, sometimes, I'm able to open the page, browse in it, but when I try download something it never starts. The apps are in the list for downloading, but the bar never starts to fill and they never download. I don't have probelem with the wi fi and internet, the problem I have is in the market.
[Touch HD Android Development] xalaros:
hello all i just installed this release and it seems quite nice although i have a few problems and i can't seem to find any answers to them.

1) when i use the usb storage function and the eject from my pc and try to remount the sdcard to the phone i get blank sdcard, is this a known issue??? is there a workaround??

2)is there a way to reboot the OS without returning to windows??

3) my bluetooth is recognized but can't pair for some reason, is there anything i can do about it??
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
with point 1 and 3, just wait to a new kernels/release

For point 2, well Android needs some windows process to run so you can't run Android without running windows before. This will happen until we can install Android in NAND. Although you can try Apps called dualboot which let you choose what OS boot, actually this apps run basic winmo process to boot android and show a screen where you can choose OS

I've installed Android and it worked for me.. at first to activate my dataconnection I had to choose network again, choose apn and manually turn on and of datatransfers..( just turned on and off all the otions at wireless network settings)..

But sometimes the data connection disappears for no reason..

The phone works but my and when I download apps from the market it all runs smoothly..

But, when I was playing a bit of Airhockey the phone turned black and that was the end of my android adventure :(

Like I said, it worked for 5 hours and then it crashed..

Rebooted several times and tried to run haret again..phone boots in Linux and then half way it hangs.. soft reset didn't work..so its back to wm6.5 again boehoe

Any ideas ? Tried reinstalling the whole thing...format SD card, made new attitions etc..

my phone : Touch HD

[Touch HD Android Development] vjeta:
Hi,

I've installed latest release (26/10/10) in my device and make all until haret installation...

after:

Kernel Panic!...not syncing...no init found...passing init? option to kernel...

rebooting in 7 seconds

And now I can't start anymore android (haret.exe freezes my device, and also does the install.exe in the npkinstall folder)

What I'm doing wrong? I've a blackstone and I followed all the steps of the installation tutorial (creating an ext2 & linuxswap partitions on the SD card, copying the right startup.txt's, ...)

Thnx!

ext2 filesystem troubles

Hi,

I'm challenging troubles with ext2 filesystem. After installing some applications from market (like Astro file manager, AppBrain and others) Android system starts dying slowly (processes starts to die, menu is corrupted, widgets stops working) and when I remount SD card with ext2 in linux and run fsck, lot of errors are found like "Superblock corrupted", "'.' does not exist in this directory". Whole filesystem is in mess. This happens regularly, each time I reinstall Android. It's happening also with different kernels (now using global kernel 21) and different Android builds (e.g. Donut 1.6).

Does anybody challenging same issues? Please help! :(
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
Hi vjeta,

I was challenging same troubles, when I forget to replace startup.txt in install folder for the right (blackstone) one. Problem is, that default startup.txt has "200" resolution, but blackstone uses "240".

When haret is freezing, try to use non-overclocked startup.txt or lower CPU frequency (for me everything above 580MHz freezes haret).
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
One more thing,

freezing at the end of install is normal, I have same experience. But that's nothing fatal, just restart your phone manually, when asked to.
[Touch HD Android Development] vjeta:
first install ok (¿?) and haret.exe freezes

Yes, I copied the right startup.txt in npkinstall folder the first time and it installed ok (I think, because at the end of installation I had a kernel panic while waiting to restart phone, in second number 7).

The problem is that I reseted the phone manually and when I run haret.exe my phone freezes completeley. I've tryed also to reinstall executing install.exe another time but it happens exactly the same as running haret.exe, phone freezes just before it's supposed to vibrate and start loading linux.

I don't know what to do more...

Thank you very much and sorry for my bad english
[Touch HD Android Development] vjeta:
I forgot to mention that I don't use the overclocked startup.txt...
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
If you're familiar with linux, reboot to windows mobile and mount SD card as mass storrage, or plug your SD card into card reader and run

fsck devX

, where dev is your sd card device name (like /dev/sdc) and X is partition number counted from 1, on your ext2 drive (e.g. fsck /dev/sdc2). Somehow this Froyo is corrupting ext2 filesystem. I had to fall back to Eclair 2.1, this release is much stable and seems it has no problems with ext2 system.

If you're not linux user, try to install Eclair release directly ( _ttp://_ww.neopeek.com/en/forum/Android-ROMs/1971-VaniljEclair-V15-FINAL---CyanogenMod-508---Android-Eclair). Installation process is the same. This helped me.

Sorry for the link, as junior member I can't put URLs into forum.
[Touch HD Android Development] Ghostface1979:
Does nobody have an idea/solution for my problem ?

I'm sick of Windows Mobile...like the phone hate the OS
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
Hi, it seems some of us here are challenging same problem with Froyo 2.2. Hanging during boot... could anybody confirm my doubt, that this is caused by corrupted ext2 filesystem? Every time this occurred and I tried to check partition for errors, I've found plenty of them.
[Touch HD Android Development] mooryside:
Just installed this Rom on my blackstone. Installed with no problem, I followed the instructions from post #1. So far everything is working very smooth and very fast. Best android rom to run on my blackstone.

One question: While running android and connecting it to my computer via USB, I could not get the sd card to appear in my computer for file transfers. Do I have to go back to windows on my phone to transfer files?

I tried clicking on turn on USB Storage button, wheel spins but nothing happens...any ideas?
[Touch HD Android Development] DmK75:
Install "Dual Mount SD Widget" (SD Share).
[Touch HD Android Development] mooryside:
thanks for the reply DmK75 . I will try dual mound sd.

Another question on the blackstone , can you remap the hardware buttons (home) to be an actual home button. Because right now there is no way to go home directly other than hitting the back button a bunch of times.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
Having same problems: by default power and end call buttons are mapped as sleep. When I use spare parts and map end call button to home, power button can't be longer use for sleep. Now I have to choose between home and sleep functionality. :(
[Touch HD Android Development] mooryside:
thanks for the tip though of using spare parts. At least now on my blackstone I can set the end call button for home and can use the top power button for sleep.:)
[Touch HD Android Development] vjeta:
Ok, thank you very much for your answer, I'll try the eclair version because froyo give me ext2 file system corruption.
[Touch HD Android Development] crazygizzmo:
Thanks for this awesome Android port :D

Think this is the best I´ve tried so far as it is fast and stable. Main functions are working and battery life is incredible for an android port.

However I noticed some minor bugs:

- Listening to mp3s with the built in music player or windamp doesn´t work well as the music stops every few seconds for some milliseconds

- USB connection works and I can access the sd card but after disconnecting the usb cable the sd card is shown as broken and cannot be used by android (restart helps)

- sometimes android processes crash but I think thats normal for most of the android ports

- wallpaper cannot be changed to own wallpapers as the selection is missing

- some applications from the market don´t work (e.g. metamorph, some wallpaper changers)

But in the end as I said before I think it is one of the best android ports.

By the way I am using a HTC Touch HD with WM 6.5.x to start android.

Keep up the good work.

Best

[Touch HD Android Development] thekamikas92:
Is this release is faster then the one I'm currently using now ( A.K.A. Donut 1.6 the Kenia last release)
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
Hi, having the same Touch HD, I'm experiencing exactly the same.

I have some hints:

- Changing wallpapers works well using AppBrain. You can than easily change wallpaper directly from the gallery on the web.

- For USB I'm using now Multi Mount SD-Card. It's free and also paid version on the AppMarket. Works like charm: whenever I put my phone onto USB, it automatically mount SD card as removable media. Moreover you can access it still from the phone and PC simultaneously! Android could be also in sleep mode and you can work with your SD card from PC. There's no problem with dismounting.
[Touch HD Android Development] crazygizzmo:
Thanks for this awesome hints ;-) Will try...
[Touch HD Android Development] crazygizzmo:
I also tried this version and it is a little faster than the CyanogenMod but it is Android 1.6 ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] crazygizzmo:
Maybe somebody could also tell me how to change the style of the taskbar as I don´t like the white one...

Tried to use metamorph for this but the app doesn´t work on that build...

Hi,

I have only one problem, wifi don't work. It start but i can't find any signal
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
@vjeta: did you solve your freezing problem? I think you hadn't copied startup.txt on root of sd card (as I read you only talk about npkinstall folder startup)

For data corruption issues, try using another SD card, maybe the one you are using isn't working right
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Yep. Having same issue, but my µSD isn't recognised anymore by Ubuntu!

Had not this issue with former kernel and rootfs.
[Touch HD Android Development] vjeta:
Yes, I solved it!

I copied the right startup.txt's in both folders but the problem was SetCPUSpeed, I've my HD overclocked @ 604 mhz with this program and this was causing the haret.exe freeze. Now everytime I want to start androiod I kill setcpuspeed process and I don't have any probs at all.

So simple, but it take me too long to discover because at that speed, I don't have any hang ups in winMo.
[Touch HD Android Development] Diamond_htc_75:
Hi, one question please .

In this release there is the button to turn it off ?

You Tube works fine ?

Thank's a lot
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
Hi, did you mapped end call button to home using spare parts? If yes, power button won't work. You have to give up "home" button functionality and map end button to power off.
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeonLee:
ext2 filesystem troubles

To anyone, who has problems with corrupted ext2 partition:

I have removed both partitions from SD card (fat32, ext2) and recreated them again. Since than I have no problems with corruptions. Now I'm running Android for four days and that's much longer than ever before.
[Touch HD Android Development] tarmacmaster:
Hi there,

I just installed the CyanogenMod rom and it is great :)

However, when I am trying to set up my google account Android tells me that it cannot reach google servers ; I have selected my provider and I can place calls, receive calls and receives messages so I do not understand why adding a google account fails :(

any ideas ?
[Touch HD Android Development] tarmacmaster:
here is the message I get: "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
with some kernels data connection fails

try connecting via wifi

you can get latest kernels to see if problem is solved or you might look into your data connection config maybe is a bad setup acording to your provider

[Touch HD Android Development] Pheny:
HI,

i'm trying to install CM, my device didn't restart itself after installing npkinstall.

But the main problem is that when i start HARET.exe ist stop installing:

"Waiting for root device /dev/mmcblk0p2..."

Plz Help...

My Device is a TouchHD / Blackstone
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
You need to check If you copied in root of SD the Startup.txt according to Blackstone that it's located on HARET-Startups folder

If this did'nt work, make sure you partitioned SD card correctly

When running npkinstall and getting reboot message, it won't reboot (never did AFAIK), do it manually
[Touch HD Android Development] foxzhao:
i have never launched android successfully in my hd yet,there must be something wrong with my sd card or else...

[Touch HD Android Development] NemanjaLO:
I have the same problem, I also want to try how Android runs on EXT2 partition.

Searching for solution...
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:
So I assume there's something wrong with the Startup. Sorry guys I have no Blackstone and couldn't try it. Maybe you can check the "set cmdline" parameter in Startup.txt? Did I understand this right, that Haret boots up normally with some text and after calibrating screen your display gets black instead of showing the boot animation or do you have problems before calibrating touchscreen?
[Touch HD Android Development] k-zik:
Could you ask one of the android devs(osamaa,babijoee,phhusson,klinux...) for help ? these guys could help you to get this working, they have been working to port android since october or more and they got the necessary stuffs to get it working.

i will review my startup file tonight and keep you in touch!
[Touch HD Android Development] insestito:
More ideas for port this android on my touch hd please !!!

:confused:
[Touch HD Android Development] NemanjaLO:
Definitely there is no problems in startup.txt, I have double checked all parameters and everything is OK.

Haret boots up normally, passes calibrating screen, and shows up android text, but it freezes when it shoud display boot animation.

I have also tried SuperHero beside SuperEclair and HaretPack 1.1 & 1.2, and some another kernels, but same problem exists.
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:

[Touch HD Android Development] NemanjaLO:
No go, again.

Now when splash screen needs to show phone just reboots. What the hell is the problem with blackstone? :confused:

Just one question: Where is the data partition?

Thanks for your efforts.;)

EDIT: First time phone reboots, second time phone just stays on blank screen with backlight and reboots after 5 mins.
[Touch HD Android Development] mcdull:
if that is the case, it could be the hw3d issue.

blackstone has no hw3d support yet and the boot animation required opengl which would call hw3d. In other build, hw3d was disabled by disabling the driver. However, if the driver being enabled in this build, system will freeze.

just wild guess...
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:
I don't know it guys. The following devices work 100%:

HTC Diamond (GSM / CDMA)

HTC Diamond2

HTC Fuze

Blackstone seems to have a problem as reported by you.

Don't know if Rhodium works. I remember earlier there has been an option to enable / disabel hw3d by startup.txt adding hw3d.force=1. Maybe you could try this! It also maybe that it is the JIT enabled Dalvik VM.

I will definitely look into this but may need help also from yu to get it running. Perhapsa someone of the XDA Team will help. Til now I did'nt contact anyone of them!
