I'm installing the 2-8 nightly build from the first post right now. I finally managed to format and partition my sdcard. Gparted just wouldn't recognise the card in my cardreader... It did work when i just used my HD in storage mode :). Will report back once it's finished installing :)

edit: I've run in some sort of problem. I've managed to get the installer running. I Get the "Android Installed..." message, but after that there is a kernel panic, and then it says "rebooting in 7 seconds". It didn't exactly do that :P. I waited 5 minutes and then pulled out the battery. When i run haret, it starts installing all over again and gives the same error messages... I've just finished my 3rd loop, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Any pointers anyone?
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
thanks, for the tip, but the install runs normal ....and as you can see - it is existing ..

hmm, any other idea ?

EDIT:

i will try another version ... seems to be very old one ...(don't ask me in which packet this module was ...)

EDIT1:

i used now another module for wlan and now it is working ...

@xUmaRix: thanks for the hint to check the ko file :)
[Touch HD Android Development] xUmaRix:
all the kernel modules is in the zip file of any kernel version u downloaded from either balsat or glemsom.it is in modules-xxx.tar.gz.The problem occur due to rootfs from this build is not really extracting all the modules properly.i even got problem initialize swap on /dev/block/mmcblk0p4.However the command works when android is up and running
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
my sd card partion is:

/dev/sdc1 -> fat32 (7000mb)

/dev/sdc2 -> ext2 (512mb)

/dev/sdc1 -> linux swap (64mb)

so i changed the config to enabled the swap part on /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

well, not sure, i changed the conf on my system and it seems to be working...

#############

anyway, for now i'm trying to find more information about the touch screen, and to find a method to calibrate it or how to use correct values for ts-calibrate file (which will always create as zero-filesize. not sure if this have something to do with the problem of "sometimes 2-3cm left touch" bug.
[Touch HD Android Development] gul_dukat_:
hi accountabc, have you the "install.exe" and the "androidinstall.tar.gz" in the directory "/sdcard/npkinstall/" ? if not move it to this directory, else the installation will fail with the errormessage you've described.
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
i modified the init (startup) file to get more time on calibration to see the real error.

well in init ist start the command:

tssc-calibrate

then i see an error:

open input device Inappropriate ioctl for device

maybe better to make new extra thread for it.

Thanks for your reply :). But that's the weird thing; yes, They're noth there :/.

I didn't format my fat32 partition before making an ext2 one, but that shouldn't make a difference (I think)... I think I'll just start over, maybe I did something else wrong :P.

Unfortunately, everything is fantastico on CM6 RC2 on my DIAM100, except the speakerphone! does anyone knows how to make it work? it enables, but no sound coming through.

this build is really close to everyday use :)
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:
Hello everybody. What's this issue about the touchscrenn calibration? Does anyone else have this sort of problem on Touch HD. Sorry I have no HD only a Diamond, so I for myself can't test my builds for HD before releasing 'em. If anyone has a spare-device which he doesn't need: Just send it over to me! By the way: I am also collecting some money via paypla to buy some devices like Touch HD, Touch Pro, Rhodium etc. If you like my work you may consider a donation to push my work in the right direction
[Touch HD Android Development] zsdja:

2.extract npkinstall.zip to the root of my sd card

3.rename the FroyoreduxPort to androidinstall.tar.gz, and copy into folder npkinsatll

4.extract haret-packet to the root of my sd card

5.run install.exe within the npkinstall folder, and wait

6.after android installed message display, and it is said that system will reboot in 7 seconds, but nothing happen...

7.reboot the system manually, and run the haret.exe in the root of my sd card

8.reinstall again, and stop at "reboot in 7 seconds"

Sense in new version

Dear Neopeek... Your version is looking very VERY good!!! ;-)

Love the speed in your Android port... :-D

I realy like the sense interface, it gives Andriod more usability!

Is there a Sense version of Andriod 2.2 in your planning?

I wish you succes with this project, I love it.. Hope there wille be an stable Android version soon, so I can get rid of the lazy WM6.5.3...

Keep up the good work!!! Greatings...

Amazing, after reformat the fat32 partition, and copy those file again, it works, testing...

hi Neopeek,

the touchscreen bug is a problem currently on all available builds.
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:
First post updated with links to the new releases.
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
thanks, great news :)

i tested now:

what i see:

1.) "wlan" doesn't work - maybe i must copy the module manually to device ...

2.) "astro" doesn't work for me - will try to install it from market.

3.) "gallery3d doesn't work - must check my catlogs what's there is ongoing ..

4.) touch screen bug still exist.

5.) 3G GPRS connection not working - must investigate why it doesn't work (the APN provider are installed) - > if i change it to 2G and then back , then it works. (must do this after every boot)

EDIT: for 1 (wlan problem) -> i use another "wlan" module and then it works. (see attached)

EDIT1: does also not work - wlan not working in this moment for me ...

will try the CM version now ...
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:

@All: First I had also Market-Problems but after toggling WiFi on / off and trying to connect with Data I succeeded. As I have seen also others on Cyanogen-Forum have some Market issues!
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
thanks for the tip, i also read it under changes/history, but i can't activate wlan any more ..

also, what i would prefer ... ASTRO is often not working , i recom. "ROOT EXPLORER", this is more stable.

or alternative "estrong file explorer"

don'T know, but ASTRO is not working, also tried to open ASTRO 2.5.2, also doesn't work.

EDIT:

i tried to make a list of all errors in catlog, but it is too much and don't know where is should start ...

can'T find any fixes of old version ... maybe next version is better ...
[Touch HD Android Development] neopeek:
Quick fix for Market

Unfortunately Market is broken for Wifi until you connect once with Data. It will work with WiFi after that. You will have to do this:

Wipe the system and when you first boot up:

Connect via Data with your Google Account in Setup-Wizard. If you won't do this Market won't work for a reason I couldn't figure out til now. Though this seems to happen also for Dream/Sapphire Users on RC3. Should be fixed ASAP!

Here are some additional links for thos who are interested in:

This quote is really interesting:

Found here on Google:

WLAN FIxED: is now working for me.

(maybe i had an old kernel + modules ...

i installed again - and before i updated my zImage + msm modules on root of sdcard. then it is working again.
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
doesn't work for me.

maybe it wasa fault to start with the WIFI ....maybe i must start from scratch :(

but it must be possible to remove the files for android market, so that it is thinking, that it is the first start - or ?

maybe also it was wrong to setup my gmail account ..

however ... the "condition" screen i can't accept, because it is switching to "loading" and hangs then there ...

also tried to kill market and restart - the same happen again ...

EDIT:

also gallery not working ... seems to be a mem problem ?

maybe, because HTC HD is diferent to diamond, raphael with gpu mem..

Camera

is there any development of working camera ...for next release or the release after :::?????
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
maybe the release after .... :)

what i know, the camera is not the highest priority...

there are problems on the GPU (graphic card), which would also very important..

and last but not least, the problems on battery is also very important - if battery run out in 8hrs, then it makes not much fun for most users :)

Hi,

just tested this Froyo Implementation with EXT2 partition.

Installation works as described. I've same issues with reboot, but after waiting a couple of time i did it manually.

Can also log in to my google account but get no response from market.

Also the webbrowser doesnt't work. It's shows a white screen and go back to home after while.

This occures with CM6 and Froyoredux...

Any Idea.

Tested before XDAndroid 2.2(rel. q.3) as good, but slow...

Hope with ext2 installation it could be more performant, ..?

Impresive

Hi All,

Just installed it... Impresive speed in this version!! But there are a few problems:

- Known problem with market, did not try the fix yet..

- The browser doen't work for me, just closes after 3 seconds..

- The Gallery isn't working for me..

- Astro is also not working..

Things that are working:

- 3G Vodafone NL

- Wifi, no problems!

Is there a Sense version in the planning?

Greetings...

Keep up the good work!!!!
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
NOT YET, in theory - it is not legal to make a SENSE version, this is a HTC app, which is not any more availible on the market !

and there are several better solutions(better CPU, RAM) for it.

actually, i'm not a big prophet, but i can tell you ... Android on Hardware where the linux kernel did not get the infos from the hardware supplier ... is almost impossible to make drivers only with reverse engineering. So - lee that like a toy ...

i'm sure, that the bugs are not so fast fixed as the xdandroid developers are going to other hardware (like HTC HD2, where the drivers are almost the same as on a real supported android devices, where the drivers are made by suppliers.

i'm also thinking about, because ex: HTC HD2 will be support wm6.5 + android 2.2 very good.

i know, that HTC HD2 can be usec for "all day work" on android. additionally it will support wmp7 soon...

so, for my understanding this will be the first device which will support for wm6.x / wmp7 /android

but as i told ... this is ONLY my meaning ;-)
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
about the MARKET problem ...

to reset the phone -> wipe doesn't work.

so - i will test to install from scratch and only try with GPRS starting the market.....

[Touch HD Android Development] accountabc:
nooo i just finished installing the 16-8 release :p. *removes battery and starts over

edit: used the method in video2 to format the sd card, and the 18-8 release is now booting :)

edit2: stuck on black screen (the one where the boot animation used to be i think) for half an hour now :/. I'm going to try to reboot

edit3: I'm now getting a screen full of

"init: untracked pid 1xxx exited

request suspend state: wakeup (0->0) at xxxxx" (where x is a number)

I remember someone stated the fix for your issue on the first sites of this thread. I have no Blackstone so I can't testdrive it even before releasing. So it's up on you til someone decides to join my project as officical beta tester or developer or anything else...

untracked pid's shouldn't happen maybe you should try another kernel. If this doesn't work then please start from scratch

Hi all!

First of all sorry if this is not the correct thread to post it.

I tried latest Official-CM6-Port on my Blackstone, in general runs quite good (very good I must say) but I don't have sound, I've installed it using the installation guide (1,3GB FAT, 512MB Ext2, 64MB Swap on my SD) and booted with haret.exe. Android boots right and fast, system is smooth but if I try to change Ringtones, the settings aplication gets an error message and closes. Any solution to this?

And do you know any good Dual Boot for this ports? I tried Gen.Y Dual Boot but it crashes, also tried JMZ and doesn't work.

Thanks a lot

This means I paste all 3 downloaded files on FAT32 partition, which chould be the root?

Mean FAT32 first part

Swap 3 part?

Chromatic-Port 20-08-2010 Feedback

hey guys,

just some feedback regarding chromatics latest release.

overall, loving it, nearly replaced it as my daily rom..

market-ok

phone/3g-ok

wifi-ok

speed is best i've seen for a blackstone release- really good.

battery is much improved, can last a whole day now with average normal use.

some issues though, browser does not work, it opens up and then shuts down after about 10 or so secs, same with a couple other apps that i've downloaded from the market place e.g. astro file manager, yxplayer, zedge.

some other apps that are working from market place are taskiller and alchemy (game).. they do NOT quit after a short while..

neopeek: attached is a logcat file if that might help with anything, i've dumped the file from chromatics latest release.

keep up the great work, loving the android!
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
All those positives feedback about Chromatic sounds verry strange to me as I tried it twice on a new 2Gb µSD, and it is a real pain in speed (te worst i ever tried), 3G data totally unstable, apps crashing... screen not calibrated at all and all google apps that ask for connect to an account that already exists!

I don't think I am gonna try a third but wait for next release.
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
i can only tell you, if you install it correct, then it is working fine.

for it is possible to switch to android all the time ...

(of course, there are several things which must be optimized, but it works smooth and fine.)

cu camel
[Touch HD Android Development] jeanfrederic:
Hi Camro. Thx for your reply.

All I have to say is that I think I've installed it as it is explained. FAT32 + Ext2 (512Mo) + 64Mo Swap. Then I follow the way.

The first install was a total failure. The second was higly problematic, with many Android services crash (I don't remember the names of those apps).The third is working but heat ups my phone a lot, it is really really hot. It is running slow, 3G runs but sloooow as EDGE, and now, after one hour playing and setting it up, I doesn't wake up any more and I have to reboot all the time.

If I install it the same way and get different erratics behaviors, it may there is something else explaining, like the hardware, the WinMo ROM I use or... Anyway, if it exists a log or trace.txt I can generate and send to you, tell me and I'll do.
[Touch HD Android Development] camro:
first install android commander (nice tool - you'll find it.

and also droid explorer.

then you can connect via AS in normal mode in WM, then start Haret.

then conenct via drois explorer -and it should find your device. there is a button "catlog" (looks like a paper roll).

then you have the log :)

cu camel
[Touch HD Android Development] LeeYaoSan:
the SD card type is one more thing you need to think about. Because depending of card class it's faster or slower (or even don't work)

Android usually works better with 3 or 4 reboots. I recommend also to not overclock the device because it overheats, I use Normal-Startup.txt (not overclocked) and it works smooth.

It could be better use a dual boot application because it boots andorid before all WinMo boots, so only drivers are mounted, but i don't know any good dual boot for Blackstone

Android for Hd is not perfect so don't expect to get all working fine, smooth, cold and fast, there's also lots of work to do.

However look for latest zImage for HTC HD as they have lots of bugs solved (I use Balsat zImage for Blackstone and compatibles)
[Touch HD Android Development] mcdull:
I guess "astro" shut down for the same reason as it will call the browser for ad-purpose.
