Yes but i have deleted everything i have installed since it last worked properly.
[Desire General] JohnSteveDoe:
Have you installed RemoteVol, by any chance? The app that allows you to change volume from the forward/back keys on your headset?
[Desire General] cryraxz:
No i haven't, has anyone else had this?
[Desire General] AndroHero:
have you installed a power saving or battery saving app? alot of them auto switch things like that off when the screen is off to save batt power, maybe there are options in settings somewhere to restore it :confused:
[Desire General] cryraxz:
Nope :( nothing like that
[Desire General] JohnSteveDoe:
I think that if you have SpareParts installed, it auto-downloads RemoteVol if you enable that option to change volume via the keys on the stock headset.

if i install android on TD2 would i be able to install and run full functional applications and games which are made for android?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] cheekugr8:
ok.

should i go for clear installation of Android or should i go for XDANDROID
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] cheekugr8:
ok. after running android would i b able to install third party apps, games, etc?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] ReWind402:
Yes u would be able to install third party apps just u have to enable in settings > application > install apps from unknown sources ( I think its like that ).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] cheekugr8:
thanx for youe help guys.

a little more help...if i run android on my TD2 would it effect my originally installed windows 6.1/6.5 ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] bigeneral:
so, to boot the device back to WM6.5, all you need to do is remove the SD card with Android on it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] ReWind402:
You can press&hold the end call button and click turn off phone ( the phone will restart itself and boot again in WinMo ) or open the back cover and press the soft-reset ( little red button under the stylus). The first solution is the best one.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] wouts:

I followed the instructions for installing a custom ROM and used DamageControlv3.1, and everything seemed to go fine, but now whenever i try to reboot my device it flashed the

HTC Evo 4G screen over and over and I can't enter the recovery mode or anything again. Is there anything I can do?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave2582:
Have you tried pulling the battery out for like 20 seconds? Try that to see if it boots up that way.

If not, get a memory card reader, plug your microsd card in it, place the pc36img.zip file on there from your computer, remove the custom rom, put your sd card back on your phone and load'r up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trentlythp:
Do you have NAND unlocked? If not that is your problem. If you go to the post for that ROM and search you will find it. I had the same problem. I got to excited to get that ROM going and didn't finish the root process :)

What Dave said should get you back up so you can finish the root. Sorry I missed that part

Is there a way to actually control my phone from my computer? I mean, if I want to send out a text or something and don't want to have to pull it off the dock, or if I want do do something with the phone or whatever and just leave it on the dock, is there a program somewhere that allows that?

I knwo we can create virtual devices and stuff, but I want to take it a step further.

[Hero CDMA General] unCoRrUpTeD:
If all you want to do is control your phone Picme will work, but after trying it last night I found out that it would not work if the screen went to sleep. If you want to be able to access files from anywhere then I will post a thread of what needs to be done to get it to work once I finish getting it setup.

Here is what I want to do.

1. Control my phone from any computer over wifi or internet

2. Access my phone from any computer over wifi or internet

I started messing with android's vnc server here. It looks like our kernel needs to be modified to use it correctly, but it still doesn't allow access to the content on the phone. I can also use swiFTP to access my phone storage over wireless but not through the internet

I have installed dyndns on my phone and have a website redirect to my phone and can verify that it does work because I used it for Picme.

I have also tried another ftp server, but could not get it to work over the internet.

Here is an app that is suppose to work on the phone as avnc server, but I can't get it to work..http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6896000#post6896000

dsixda's HTC Android Basic Kitchen - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=633246

In my crazy quest to learn more about Android, I decided to create a companion to dsixda's kitchen that will take some of the drudgery out of downloading and compiling AOSP and the HTC kernel.

Here's what the current menus looks like:

Select the device that you would like to build for.

1) HTC Droid Eris
a) About Builder

0. Exit

Please enter option number:

and then

1. Sync AOSP - Cupcake (1.5) repo
2. Sync AOSP - Donut (1.6) repo
3. Sync AOSP - Eclair (2.1) repo
4. Sync AOSP - Froyo (2.2) repo

0. Exit

Please enter option number:

You can follow these two steps, and you will get a freshly compiled, but unsigned ROM in the original_update folder. After running it through the kitchen, it boots up just fine. Of course, most of the hardware doesn't work. That's the part that I am working on now (seriously, I am). I've been working on this for a while, because as I said - this is really about me learning. If I can make a tool that someone finds useful, then great!

Install instructions:

1) download and unzip dsixda's kitchen to whatever directory you want

2) download Android Builder into kitchen's scripts/plugins folder and unzip

3) back out and start the kitchen

4) select 'Run plugin scripts' from Advanced menu and select 'Android Builder'

5) you're there!

NOTE: This will try to install/update all of the packages that it needs, including Java5. Please look at the code so that you know what it's doing. That's just a good general practice with any code that you can actually look at and that you have to run as root...

Future plans:

1) add more kernels (devices)

2) add more vendor trees (goes along with devices)

3) add more repos (CM5, CM6, AOSP Master)

I hope someone finds this useful, and feel free to post useful suggestions/bug reports.

DOWNLOAD - (https://github.com/gnarlyc/android_builder)

CHANGELOG -

v5. - kiel123 re-wrote v.4 as a plugin to dsixda's kitchen with me testing afterward, minor fixes, removed Java6 as no longer needed by kitchen

v.4 - re-wrote to add structure to support more devices in the future

added option for Cupcake, Donut, and Froyo

added .config files that enable touchscreen in kernel by default

v.3 - unreleased build

v.2 - corrected misspellings in code and dialogs

added sudo to launch setup script (Still need to sudo bash first. Sorry.)

v.1 - initial release
[Droid Eris Android Development] arockj:
Very nice. I have been doing the same. I have used darchstar's post here as the basis of my work. But, I am always glad to look how others are doing things. Thanks for the post.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Thanks for the thanks! I don't quite get the vendor tree thing, but I just need to look at it again a few times. And, that's where I'm at. It would be really neat to be able create a working AOSP ROM from scratch with minimal manual intervention. It might not be possible, but I haven't found that out yet. (But wait! If you can do it manually, it can be scripted. Right?)
[Droid Eris Android Development] firestrife23:
there's typo in your install script

look for line: android_builder*

should be android-builder*

and your install script should use mv command instead of cp to avoid files duplication

EDIT: also you should use sudo command along with ./ab_setup script or include within script as well.

When i ran ./abmenu and i get this message

Please copy 'menu-kd' to the root of your kitchen folder with 'menu'

menu-kd?.... don't you mean abmenu? turned out it was looking for menu file which i had it renamed to kitchen_menu but I fixed that on my part and all is working well.

Dont let any of my criticism scare you away, I can see there's a lot of potential use for this scripts, great start by the way.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
I renamed all of the scripts at the last minute and thought that I had them fixed. I'll make the corrections and repost. The goal is to get this thing working well. Your criticism is just more motivation. Thanks!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Geo411m:
I'm new to all this but I would love this to work with Froyo source.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
The current 'internal' build works with Cupcake (1.5), Eclair (2.1), and Froyo (2.2). It's not ready to release though. Give me another week or two. I'm working on proprietary bits now, so that you get a more usable ROM from the start.

Although from your sig, it appears that you don't have an Eris, so you probably don't care much about it's proprietary bits. If you want it to get Froyo instead of Eclair, you can just change 'eclair' to 'froyo' in the script that creates the repo.

I'm with you on Froyo. I have a feeling in a month or two very few people will want to run a pre-Froyo ROM. It's really nice.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
rm error on install

i keep getting "rm: cannot remove './bkup': No such file or directory"

the file is there untill i run the ./install script then it disappears and shoots me an error any help would be appriciated
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
That files was used by me while developing the code. It's not needed. I'll fix the install script for v.5, but if you really want to fix the script now... Just remove the line -

'rm ./bkup'

from the 'install' script

You should still be able to start Android Builder by typing './abmenu', as long as it's in the same folder with the kitchen's menu. The error shouldn't matter.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
k thanks i think it worked the same even with the error but got it =)
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Good deal. Let me know how it goes.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dsixda:
gnarlyc --

Have you thought of making this into a .plugin file that can be placed in the scripts/plugins folder of the HTC Android Kitchen? Then that way you won't need to update your scripts each time I update my kitchen :-)

In my thread I could provide a link to your tool, so that people can add that plugin if they want.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
The thought has occurred to me.

Give me a bit. A link in your thread would be great. It might even motivate me to add more devices. Getting stuck on adding Eris proprietary bits has lead me down the road of making a ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=725447) and documenting the process. I'll get back to Android Builder soon though.

Ok, so...

TO-DO

-------

1) rewrite AB as a plugin to dsixda's HTC Android Kitchen

2) add proprietary bits for Eris

3) add more devices

4) add CM repos

5) add Gingerbread repo

6) add compatibility with more distros
[Droid Eris Android Development] lord194409:
i am getting line 28: update-java-alernatives: command not found?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Interesting... I've tested from a freshly installed Ubuntu installation several times. It should install everything you need.

You could try 'update-alternatives --config java' and let me know what it says. You could also look for a file called 'setup_ran' in the root of the Kitchen, and delete it. Start './abmenu' after that and try again.
[Droid Eris Android Development] lord194409:
thanks for answering. Could the problem be that i installed it on cygwin.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Yes. Android Builder will not work under cygwin. I don't know that it ever will. That's on the TO-DO list, but it's so far down that it's not on the posted TO-DO list.

I've only tested under Xubuntu 10.04 and minimal Ubuntu 10.04.

If you happen to work it out on cygwin, let me know! I'm sure others would be happy to have the option. Heck, I might even be. I'm mainly using Ubuntu because of AB anyway. (Although, it is kind of growing on me.)
[Droid Eris Android Development] lord194409:
thanks i will look in to it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Geo411m:
just wanted to let you know that it didn't work for me. It runs, gives some errors and outputs a update.zip called AOSPbase but the file is only 1.1kb in size.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
make sure you have java5 and java6 jre/jdk installed. it should work then. i had a similar issue the first time through... took it literally 10hours plus, then output was the 1.1k AOSPBase.zip file.

manually installed all java components, and everything worked perfectly then (and took half the time) :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Strange... I'll take a look at it again. It should install both versions of Java without you having to do anything. I do have some other updates that I've worked out, so maybe it's time for a new version to be released.

I'm glad that some people are finding this to be useful! It's certainly taken the drudgery out of compiling AOSP and kernels for me.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Geo411m:
@Tenzomonk you're right. It seems you have to manually change the Java version for it to work.

@gnarlyc is it possible to you this to create a generic AOSP without the Eris stuff? I would like to use this to compile for the Nexus one.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
There is code in there to switch between Java5 and Java6, so it confuses me somewhat as to why that isn't working. Are you running Ubuntu? I'm actually doing my current testing in Debian 5, so that I can start getting it to work on different distros.

Yes, you can just use it to compile AOSP. You could just replace the boot.img that it creates with one for your device. If you want to mod Android Builder to stop creating that, you can comment out or delete the parts that download and compile the kernel. I'm not sure if it will cause things to go wrong, but it won't hurt to comment them out and try.

ab_compile_AOSP - line 18 - "$KITCHEN_ROOT/scripts/ab_compile_kernel"

That would be the main one, although there are other scripts that would still download the kernel. It just won't compile and build the boot.img without that line.

You can also look at lines 24-27 in the 'ab_pick_version_eris' script and get rid of these.

'scripts/ab_get_Eris.27' & 'scripts/ab_get_Eris.29'

That will keep it from actually downloading the kernel source.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Android Builder v.5 is currently undergoing final testing before being released. I have help now! kiel123 is also contributing some good stuff, so it should be updated a little more often. The new version will be a plugin to dsixda's kitchen, so there will be no need to bounce back and forth between the two. We also have a basic plan for the next several versions, but welcome any feature requests that you might have.

I hope that some of you find this useful.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
i love the work you've done with this! has helped me TREMENDOUSLY in what i've done. thanks again... and REALLY looking forward to v.5!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] mercury700ir:
Hey man..

Nice work..

What about other cellphones..??

Like HTC Legend and others..?? does it work on them or not..??

If it does not work, what is your plan? do you have any plan to work for others too..???

Thanks...
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
It grabs and compiles AOSP without a vendor tree. This should mostly work on any phone, although you'll have better luck with a vendor tree and you'll still need a kernel.

Yes, support for more phones is in the plan. Let us get the next version out first and then we'll start adding them. We have some reworking to do to make it easier to add new phones as they appear.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mercury700ir:
Thanks man...

I'll appreciate your endeavor in this field...
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
AB has been updated to v.5, moved to grdlock's site, and is now a plugin to dsixda's kitchen.

The plan is to move the thread or start a new one for v.6, since the plan is to add more device support. It will no longer make sense to leave this in the Eris forum at that point.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
nice work! glad to see the dedication to this project!!! GOOD stuff!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] aaoflaca:
Great work , learned a lot from your scripts, any news about V.6 ??,

I'm trying to get your scripts to work for my Droid Incredible ??!!

By the way, you mentioned in post#7 about "proprietary bits"

for your specific phone, do you have the steps to get this for any phone ??

Thanks again
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
As far as v6 goes, the team seems to have fallen apart and I've been distracted with other projects. It's also difficult to impossible to get a good AOSP build for the Eris working... When/if I do bounce back to this, I'll have a lot more experience so development could move along a lot faster. We'll see.

Proprietary bits... I would look for any existing vendor trees for the Inc. Surely someone is using a vt for CM6 ROMs. Otherwise, you might have to just figure out which files are needed without anything to start with. It's most certainly going to include the 'keyboard' files under /system/usr plus any other drivers & libs that are absolutely needed for the phone to work. Even looking at vendor trees for other HTC phones will give you some idea of where to start.
[Droid Eris Android Development] IzaacJ:
Hello. Just a question, is it possible to make it fetch and build the unofficial cm7 nightly for htc hd2 by charnsingh_online as he have it on github? Link -> https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_leo
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Well, you could possibly use this as a base to do that. EasyDev (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861315) might be a better base though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CPCookieMan:
So why doesn't this work? Using Ubuntu 10.04 and all I get in the final zip is an update-script...
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Do you get any errors? Did the source sync?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CPCookieMan:
Didn't check, next time I try to build I will check for errors.
[Droid Eris Android Development] api1996:
I get the same error
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
What error? He didn't post one yet.

Try removing the folder with the particular project in it. So, for froyo:

rm -rf builder/source/projects/froyo

And start over. Sometimes it hangs up on something and you just have to clean it out and start again. You should know whether or not it syncs. It takes a long time to do that... If it syncs the source, then you are most of the way there already.

Very good job :-)

Thx, will it support Galaxy S?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
The device specific parts of AB deal with the kernel. There's no vendor tree support, so you can try and use the resulting AOSP build with any device. No vendor tree support is not really a good thing as a general rule, but it means that AB supports all devices equally. :)

This hasn't been updated in a while. Does it still work at all? lol I spent so much time spinning my wheels trying to get pure AOSP to work on the Eris that I finally gave up. I didn't really want to go the route that others have gone by taking CM code, stripping out the obvious CM stuff, and making it appear to be pure AOSP.
