Hello dzo,

great job on this build, I am looking forward to see what else you do to improve it even more.

I was wondering if the ability to have GV configure Voice mail will be fixed?

Also lately my phone freezes when it gets hot appears some times it will be a pure white screen and other times it does not appear to have anything on it (I am not good at getting logs or what not. Sorry!)

One more question, will we see the ability to charge the phone with out it being on?

God Bless and thanks for doing a wonderful job!

Regarding Email/Gmail

A suggestion: the attachments for Email/Gmail accounts could be saved before the 'system-froyo-un/odex-15-07-10_16' releases. I don't remember the exact ones when you were able to save the attachments.

Is there a way to save the attachments from the emails or is that not neccessarily (once you opened them, they're saved in some place of the SD card)?

Thank you dzo, your builds are a representation of your character--quality!,
[Touch CDMA Android Development] blindguyinanorgy:
google voice works and has always worked just fine for me so its not the kernal or os.

i have heard others who have not had it work. maybe you should start a thread so you can all trouble shoot it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
The phone can't actually charge without being on since charging is under software control. When running wince it boots into a simple charging loop. If you put it in airplane mode before shutting down would that help?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
yaffs problem? Nand timing problem?

A while back my phone crashed and I lost half the icons on my main launcher screen (but not on the other launcher screens).

Then last night it crashed again and wouldn't reboot (mcm problems) so I had to remove the battery and then it was fine and I got back my missing launcher icons!!

Then it crashed (on-sleep) a couple of minutes later and on reboot i lost icons again plus my other launcher screen icons.

So I took the battery out and rebooted again and I had my missing icons back again.

All I can thin of is it may be a yaffs problem for a flash paging problem (maybe a timing problem) - perhaps more likely because I have data on NAND.

comments?

[Touch CDMA Android Development] Murrky:
I have managed to charge my Pola100 a couple of times already (all NAND) after it was off because of battery discharge below 15%.

Here is the method to boot:

1. Remove the battery and the SIMcard.

2. Connect USB charger and power your device on (yes, without battery).

3. Wait for Android boots despite the blank screen (Pola 100 boots well without battery, vibrating once and then twice and showing loop part of bootscreen after a while being blackscreened).

4. After booting to "Insert SIM" screen, insert the battery instead :) (very careful with USB power connection !). BUT the battery does not start to charge on insertion, see 5

5. Quickly replug USB (15% without wireless connection is enough to hold the device for some time) and wait while device is charged a little more to reboot again and insert your SIM.

P.S. And it is a good idea not to leave Wi-Fi powered on when you don't need it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
Can you charge from the ramdisk (i.e. pressing the DPAD button when it boots)?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Murrky:
I have never tried... (Honestly, I do not understand what is 'ramdisk' in application to Pola100)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aitasgh:
Thanks Dzo. I have already installed.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aitasgh:
My GPS is not working and sometimes the screen freezes(black) when it is on standby.

I'm using:

kaisimg-panel2-320-tilt-froyo-15-07-10.nbh

system-froyo-15-07-10_15.tgz

Besides these two bugs the rest is great, it is very fast.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] djkoa:
any solution?

Dzo...any solution? tip?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SuperJMN:
I yearn for updates! I forgot Windows Mobile, now Android is my all time OS although it still has some bugs, like the one regarding the wired headset (not routing the sound through it), or the USB connection not working correctly under Windows.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] samjam:
When you turn the phone on and while booting it says "press DPAN for install/upgrade" or something like that.

You could press DPAD and then not choose any options while it charges (if that works).

Also, maybe a real charger (not a USB cable) will charge better.

It seems to me that on my kaiser a real charger will charger a <15% phone while it boots up without the phone shutting down again - perhaps because the phone doesn't have to negotiate current levels?

[Touch CDMA Android Development] pentagramII:
Hey Guys!

Could someone compile a build with latest dzo's fixes?

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
OK, I just built a new release with some changes I made recently. This has:

A new Bluetooth firmware loader, BT seems to use a lot less power when idle now, you should be able to keep it enabled all the time (not tested on anything but vogue).

Some RIL improvements for signal strength reporting and network registration. Laugh at iphone 4 owners when you show them how many bars of reception you have! (No real improvement in reception, just better reporting of signal strength).

This also isn't tested much because I always have good signal strength.

I've also put a new kernel on my site which may or may not fix a lockup problem and has some touchscreen fixes.

Enjoy
[Touch CDMA Android Development] SuperJMN:
Hi DZO! I've just flashed your newest kernel. I will leave BT turned on to see how it affects to the average use of Polaris. By the way:

The wired headset is still not working: audio is always bridged to the external speaker.

Audio in emulators is choppy very often. Sometimes, when you interrupt the emulation, it works well. I think it's something related to some buffer. Older kernels worked fine.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Prowess:
Signal Strength

dzo,

My signal strength has all the bars, it's excellent! I think it's deceiving as well because I'm not getting any signals at all. I've lost them all and anyone else having the same problem?

EDIT: I'm sorry, this is working now. (Refreshed 'Network operators')

EDIT: No it's not, I've lost all the signals again (even though the bars are FULL) after a reset. Having trouble to put airplane mode off, as it just freezes at 'Diabling wireless connections'. (Resetting again.)

EDIT: Okay after reset, I've checked off Airplane mode and got the signals back with FULL BARS MAX!! I've noticed the new network it has found speeds up my internet. It feels like a worthy upgrade--fantastic dzo, fantastic!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
The new BT stuff is in userspace rather than the kernel, I'm not sure it'll work on polaris though. I'll have a look at the audio code some time.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] margosmark:
Data for me does not seem to work at all on the bell vogue.It seems to be an issue with the latest system (permission issues?). Latest Kernel with previous system data works fine,
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I found a problem with the RIL that caused it to crash on boot sometimes. I just uploaded two new systems, should fix it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
i think im still not getting data after the newest system. I redownloaded it after your last post.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] margosmark:
data is working for me on the latest one system-froyo-26-07-10_13
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
the ril is different sizes in the odexed vs non odexed. Im going to try the old switcheroo :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Prowess:
Yes data isn't working for me too.

I believe dzo's a hard worker and he's looking into it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
using the ril from the odexed build worked for me. :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Prowess:
Are you sure? Can we have an update attached? Thanks,
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
OK, here's another try:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/system-froyo-26-07-10_16.tgz/download

Only Inc needs the unodexed version.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
yes im sure. her you go :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
thanks for going through all this trouble for me. I really appreciate it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
so does this mean the other line wont here us? Does flash 10.1 work in the browser?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
No, calls should work fine, just voice search,shazam etc.. won't work. This is a very basic image, if you copy the libs from an N1, then flash might work. It still needs lots of work to make this usable (for me anyway) but it is very smooth.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BottleB:
Is that the right Kernel to use?

voguimg-240x320-27-06-10.nbh 27-Jun-2010 00:52 3.0M

and do we name system-froyo-28....tgz to androidinstall.tar?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
thanks man, i just been messing with things like market, google apps, live wallpapers, ect.... trying to see what i could get funtioning. Its wierd that the icons for the apps that i added myself from the g1 are tiny. Youtube works, overclocking seems to help with speed along with turning animations to some. I will try the libs from g1 to see how flsh 10.1 performs. Im not expecting a whole lot from that. Thanks for everything man. I hope you keep making this better.

EDIT: also, LED's still dont seem to function for me. And its performing kinda slow for me atm. Im not sure if its from things ive added to the tar or not. hold for 1 sec to go back to home doesnt seem to function. Doesnt seem to sleep. Thanks for all your efforts to this point and in the future

EDIT2: Charging led's seem to funtion properly
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
no, you should use the eclair kernel:

voguimg-240x320-eclair-27-06-10.nbh

no, rename it to androidinstall.tgz

I've just uploaded a new system to sourceforge with working gps.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] BottleB:
Your such a beast...imma put off sleeping for now
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jin5:
This awesome, thank you for all your work!

before i attempt to load this on my vogue , What works?

basic functionality is enough for me at this point

1) calls (check)

2) sms (check)

3) gmail syncing (?)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] *M*:
Would that be something Google is likely to fix? (for the emu, not our phone obviously)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] intimidatorx31:
Would you go to say it is smoother than the best eclair build out for the vogue right now? in terms of performance? (not features)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] *M*:
Camera works for a couple of seconds then FC's so it looks like the eclair fixes worked on froyo also. I will try a third party app and see if that doesnt fc.

Edit: Camera works fine with third party apps!

Quite possibly, its pretty lightweight atm tho so its hard to compare to a bulked build of eclair
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
do you have the source for your updated audio libs posted somewhere? I'll have a look to see if I can get input fixed up.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] know.patience:
gmail syncing works, just add your gmail account in the email app. i was able to get my three email accounts all set up in the combined inbox.

i tried this build out from my sdcard yesterday evening and this build is super smooth, only a few things aren't functioning. i noticed that the calendar was broken and prompts me to set up an Exchange account when i start the app.

nice, Froyo has lots of potential. Thanks dzo and all the other devs who keep hacking away at android.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I made froyo branches in any of the git repos on sourceforge that I changed, audio is here:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Pm'ing you with some info. I don't have my build environment setup anymore.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] *M*:
Have you tried you odex script on this Martin?, seems to cause dramas with the phone apk
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
Here's a new build with working audio input and bluetooth.

Anyone have the integrated Facebook app for Froyo? The one that integrates Facebook contacts to the Google contacts? Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] blindguyinanorgy:
still no data with odexed. im using _16
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Seems to be working fine for me even without wiping data from the previous build.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] linuxid10t:
Oddly, my battery level stays at 100%, however it knows whether or not it is charging. If anyone knows a fix, it would be nice to know.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] blindguyinanorgy:
@dzo

do the new ril changes eliminate the need for settings in build.prob?

edit. i dont see ril settings in any of your build.prob maybe there is defaults?

edit 2. the no data seems to be a common problem now on the kaiser.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Here's an update for the 26-07-10 release (odexed and unodexed) that does the following:

- Saves wifi calibration on /data instead of /sdcard

- Adds Superuser app and su from CyanogenMod 6

- Adds some lines to userinit.sh that enables the new su

- Adds a slightly modified version of the wireless tethering app (reads calibration from /data/calibration instead of /proc/calibration)

This allows wifi tethering (not the built in Froyo version though) for Kaiser and Polairs devices. It propably also helps other apps that needs the Superuser app.

Thanks to urban69 who figured out what needed to be done and posted the results here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=724821

EDIT: Removed attachments as they were broken.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
Thanks man, much appreciated. Are you going to add this to the source?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Yes, unless there are opinions against it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cmus:
kalt -

installed your update and then when I start tethering app I get an error: Enabling NAT rules... failed

Any ideas?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
I get that too but it works anyway.

EDIT: Or maybe not... I'll investigate this further.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
I gave a short seminar at my work yesterday about porting android, I've updated the first post with the slides and a demo video.

The Camera work in the video is a bit shaky but it was all done by my 13 year old son so he can be forgiven I think!

I found out this week that the EVDO network will be switched off here at the end of November this year. I guess this means my Vogue will have to be retired after that.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] loserskater:
NNNOOOOOOO!!!!!! I'm dreading November now... Hopefully I can finally upgrade my Tilt by then...

Maps

Dzo's android builds include modified version of google maps and nav. so that people outside of UK/US can also use navigation but since the maps have been modified bu brut they aren't recognized by other apps as google maps. Therefore applications like stock car panel do not work with brut's version. I just found a link to a stockified version of Brut's maps which should work with google/Htc car home. I have tried to replace the maps from Dzo's builds with this one but it didn't work the app. didn't show up in the app. drawer at all, could someone more knowledgeable look at this?

Hi everyone !

A big thanks to dzo, incubus and all the other contributors for the good work on android for HTC phones.

I got a second hand Kaiser recently and it was just when the froyo builds started to be available. I used it as my main system since then (system on NAND & data on SD partition).

Now I want to contribute too (bug reporting and testing as I am not a dev at all).

Do you have a bug tracking system you use for froyo feedback ? If yes, where I can find it ? If not, how can I report bugs found ?

Thanks for the wonderful work :)

system-froyo-26-07-10_16.tgz tests

Hello.

Thanks for DZO's Froyo on HTC development. I was as a second life for my Touch Cruise (polaris).

I have a SDCard with 3 partitions (FAT/ext2/ext2), spanish official WinMo 6.1 and radio ROM, lastest Haret and lastest Kernel Initrd Image from 'forum. xda-developers .com /showthread.php?t=452108&page=351' (that resolves the problem of the initial double vibrate crashing/slowing android boot).

I tested "system-froyo-26-07-10_16.tgz" belong a few days and seems more stable than "system-froyo-15-07-10_15.tgz". Screen calibrate now runs. Camera still crashes when shoots (video don't work). Galery si very, very, very... slow. Bluetooth phone audio works now, but randomly makes system slower and unstable (I have to disable I). I tried a simple ear bluetooth handsfree and it seem to work O.K., but vocal contact dial searching crashes at most times and I need to reboot system to make it work again. When I make a call with an handsfree bluetooth device, bluetooh audio button is not auto selected, and I need to activate it manually (this is not suitable for car bluetooth when driving). I also tried bluetooth phone audio with a Parrot MKi9100 car bluetooth handsfree, and it works at first time (manually selected audio button), but when I power off phone or handsfree no auto reconnection suceded (I need manually resync bluetooth conection and/or disable and again enable phone bluetooth). Some times GMail or/and "Google services frame" sync crash: I solve it removing data from both apps and manually resync again.

No Froyo tehering (I can't found option). Data, GPS, MMS, SMS, dial and WIFI are O.K. (GPS is faster with kernel image I used than lastest DZO's repository kernel image).

I hope this info can help you. Thanks a lot.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CassandraN:
Just wanted to say how marvellous this build is. With the death of Windows Mobile I was certain that my Kaiser would languish without support, but even with the rough edges, the usefulness of my phone has increased enormously thanks to this build. Congratulations to everyone involved.

Ah really, I thought it wouldnt go down till around 2011, I wonder how many telecom customers still have CDMA phones.

Are there any msm7x00 phones that will run on the vodaphone/2degrees network?

Fresh Froyo Crash

Hi Dzo,

Longtime lurker, first time poster. I love your Fresh Froyo build--it has been very fast and mostly stable. I usually end up with the battery dying on me long before it crashes (which is not something I could say about the stock WM that came with my Vogue). Today, I texted some friends and hit the end key to put the phone to sleep, and put it in my pocket. I pulled it out again a couple minutes later and found the backwards-text screen already on. Following your advice in Incubus' Froyo thread, I used adb to pull a logcat and dmesg, which are attached in a zip file. I also tried to type what I saw on the screen in reverse and attached that too, in case it matters. I didn't type all the timestamps in the screenlog because it was getting frustrating to read things backwards.

I hope these will be helpful for debugging purposes!

I am running a Vogue on Sprint, with Fresh Froyo on a class 4 SD card via ext2 partitions. I am using zImage-froyo-26-07-10, system-froyo-26-07-10_13.tgz, and initrd-22-05-10.gz.

Thanks again for all your hard work!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mnjm9b:
for future copying of backwards text, you can do two things.

low tech... use a mirror.

hi tech... take a screenshot and use a image editing program on your computer to flip image.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] wondercow:
Follow-up: after posting my crash logs, a friend asked why I didn't reply to his text that he sent right about that time (I never received the text). So, either the text was what initiated the Android crash, or texts received in the semi-crashed state while I was getting the logcat are received from the server but not saved into Android's text database. Either way, an undesirable result.

Haha, I was running around my house looking for another camera to take a picture to flip but couldn't find anything. The mirror never even occurred to me...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Kalt, I get "enabling nat rules failed" error every time I start tethering on latest build+kernel. Any ideas why?

Ok it worked after clearing data.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Actally it should have been enough to start the wireless app. Enter the setup screen, press menu, press "Reinstall binaries/config". But clearing the data will work too.
