First of all I should say I'm new to Android, but I wanted to give it a try and I started with this build.

My experience was quite smooth.

I installed with Haret, leaving everything on the SD.

Everything seems to work, at least what I tested, which is mainly phone, wireless internet access and market+app installation and update.

I had no problems, even with SIM unlock, which worked immediately.

I tested my camera and it crashes after some seconds every time.

Froyo, on my Tilt and on SD, is not that fast, but it works without hurting my WM6.5 ROM, starting any time I switch the system off.

I wanted to install ROM manager to ease the task, but I couldn't find it in the marketplace. Is it cause I'm running this build on my Tilt ?

I can't say if battery is working properly, it seems to use more power than WM.

The main thing I didn't like, is related to the option (for panel) set to 1, otherwise I get a white page waking up the system. It works, but the quality of images is greatly decreased, any hint or solution on this ?

Regarding the menu option "fix permissions", is it useful, generally speaking or is it related only to some specific issue ?

Good and interesting experience so far, even if an easy guide for newcomers would avoid many people to read hundreds of threads and bothering you on basic tasks .... I tried to read what I found available, but it helped me more reading these threads, for example.

If my experience could contribute to a thread on this, I'm more than willing to help.

Battery.......

The battery is the only big big problem of any android porting on TYTN II. Anyone can developer something ( application, patch, ect....) to resolve this problem?

We have a "Ferrari", with no Fuel !!!!!

This is not true. I have a TYTN II and android froyo runs so smooth with JIT enabled on it with a good power consumption. You should test this combination:

Nand:

Kernel: kaisimg-panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-06-09-10_22.nbh

System: Fresh Froyo from dzo (system-froyo-02-09-10_17.tgz)

Haret:

Kernel: zImage-2.6.32-froyo-06-09-10_22

System: Fresh Froyo from dzo (system-froyo-02-09-10_17.tgz)

haret-for-kernel-2-6-32.exe

initrd.lzma

default.txt

Download the latest kernel and the latest haret files here:

http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D

Download the latest system here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/

This combination works well on Nand and Haret on my Tytn II. Try it.

Here is my default.txt:

#alloctest 0x2000
set RAMSIZE 0x08000000
set RAMADDR 0x10000000
set FBDURINGBOOT 0
set MTYPE 1553
set KERNEL zImage-2.6.32-froyo-06-09-10_22
set initrd initrd.lzma
#
# The following kernel parameters are useful
# ppp.nostart	- Set ppp.nostart=1 to disable starting the ppp connection on boot
# msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax - The maximum frequency (in Hz) used by the SD controller
# pm.sleep_mode - The mode used when the phone is off
# 0=Power Collapse Suspend, 1=Power Collapse, 2=Apps Sleep,
# 3=Slow Clock and Wait for Interrupt 4=Wait for Interrupt
# Default is 1, use 1 for best power savings
# board-htckaiser.panel_type - Panel type used to power the panel off and on
# 0=Don't power off the panel (Default)
# 1=Sony 2=Topoly 3=Topoly (probably just the same as 2)
# lcd.density - Defaults to 160, 128 shows more on screen
#
set cmdline "ppp.nostart=0 pm.sleep_mode=1 mddi.width=240 mddi.height=320 no_console_suspend board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=4 board-htckaiser.panel_type=1 hw3d.version=1 board-kaiser-battery.battery_capacity=2700 board_htckaiser.pmem_size=4 board_htckaiser.pmem_adsp_size=1 clock-7x00.a11=500"
boot

Make your own settings for the keypad and panel type in kernel-nbh for Nand or in the default.txt for Haret.

And do not forget to rename your "system-froyo-02-09-10_17.tgz" in "androidinstall.tgz".

And after the installation process I would recommend to login into your Google account. After the synchronisation process from your account I would recommend to install launcher pro from the market because it is not included. Then make a reboot, and all should work fast, stable and fine.

i would like to say i really like this build but i was wondering if there is some sort of market update or fix that unlocks the full marketplace. I had the full market on this build running it on the sd card but when i flashed it yesterday to nand i found that some of the apps i had before nand flashing i couldnt get afterwords.

I need help, please

Just to summarize some of my prior posts....

I'm trying to get Android working on an HTC 8925 Kaiser (AT&T Tilt, unlocked). This particular device has run various flavors of Windows Mobile for me over the years, with no particular problems.

I've solved several issues with the Android versions I've flashed, but one remains, related to the battery, and I'm at a loss how to diagnose/fix the problem.

The symptoms are: I flash a new kernel, and install the OS with a fully charged battery and plugged into AC power. Then I unplug the power wire and set up my wi-fi access and start installing apps from the Market. When I unplug the power, the battery applet shows 99 or 100%. After a few minutes, the charge goes to 97% and then - usually while a new app is downloading, I suddenly get the 15% warning and unless I plug in power, the device shuts down.

I'm convinced the software that is measuring the battery status is misbehaving but I don't know how to diagnose or change it.

The currently loaded system is the NAND configuration recommended by mt1976 a few posts back. I tried both battery configurations in the NBH editor - simple with 1350 mAh - as printed on my battery

- advanced with the default of 2000 (units?) for battery_capacity

and both give similar results - it dies after less than 5 minutes.

Any help or advice would be welcome!

Walt

[EDIT] - Just to be sure, I re-flashed Windows Mobile 6.1. The battery lasted 55 minutes of uploading/downloading files through WIFI. Clearly I need a new battery, but that still doesn't explain why if only lasts 5 minutes with Android and ten times as long with Windows.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] spaic:
I also get VERY bad battery times.

I have noticed that when data is active (wifi or even worse with 3G) the voltage drops abruptly, which is to be expected of LiIon batteries (voltage drops quite badly with increased current draw).

I think that the reading drops do a vey low value when the voltage drops due to current draw from the battery.

Mine goes from 80-90% (3.9 volts) to 15% (3.2 volts) in a few minutes, after I start the data connection. But after I stop the data (and the current draw decreases) the voltage goes back to 3.8 - 3.9 volts.

an then it shuts down, I boot into winmo and get 0% and charge it, but charges very fast (as if the 0% was a fake reading that got transfered to winmo from android).

my questions are:

Is the current drawn from the battery monitored/measured?

Does the driver for the battery use the current draw information? (if it is monitored)

If it is no monitored, then how does the winmo battery driver get the correct level (after a fully charged state, at least)?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] walts:
Clearly, something is different in the way the OS measures the battery condition between Windows Mobile 6.5 and this version of Android; The same device/battery combination declined from 100% to 0 gradually over an hour in Windows, but with Android it went from 97% to 15% in 5 minutes, and then shut down with no intermediate warnings.

I thought (based on forum comments) that Windows was somehow measuring the battery temperature and calculating the % charge from that, but I could be very wrong there - I can't find any specific references right now.

Do you have a utility that measures battery voltage directly, or are you using a meter, or inferring the voltage from the % charge numbers?

I installed "Battery Time Lite" from the Market. It wanted to know the battery capacity in mAh to start out with, but I don't have a clue as to what is actually being measured. As you say, current draw and time are required to accurately compute what is being used.

BTW I found a newer battery and tossed the old one. Now I'm at 45% after 16 hours, almost all idle time. I can live with that, but my Blackberry gets almost three times the battery life under similar circumstances!

Latest Cyanogenmod 6 from source

Hello, i've compiled the latest Cyanogenmod build from source for the kaiser (and vogue). It's got the latest google apps and everything that comes with the cyanogenmod builds (apart from the file manager because i don't like it and forgot to add it back in when building). I've got it running on my Kaiser, it's not well tested so no doubt there will be some issues but give it a go. I'm using the latest 2.6.35 kernel so unless you change the libs for 2.6.25 ones make sure you are using a 2.6.35 kernel too :-)

Well, you can't download it, i'm sure theres something in the market similar but it's a built in android widget. Usually it is in widgets and is called 'Power Control' so if your rom has it built in you should be able to add it to your home screen.

Help with contacts

Need help. I imported contacts via vCards in SD (came from a Nokia). They seem to have been imported (progress bar and all), but the contacts cannot be seen in my contacts app. Weird thing is that, when I receive calls/sms from these "invisible" contacts, their names appear on the Phone/Message app, but they don't appear as contacts. The ones syncd from google online seem to appear okay. Any clues? Im on Kaiser NAND (sys & data) RLS5.2 on 2.6.25 Kernel.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] boy22ban:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nemuro:
I reinstalled what I already had, and wi-fi now works. It seems some of the settings I fiddled the first time I tried wi-fi, made the error.

I generally did the following:

Disable cache as I use alot of widgets

disable all animations

notifications to silent

only two screens

left only the power control widget and some shortcuts on the screen

disabled all on the power control, including lowering the brightness

disabled lab and rab

disabled screen orientation

disabled google localization services

enabled unknown sources in application settings

date and time by what's sent by the operator, changed the date format to dd/mm/yyyy

battery percentage display

disabled all accelerometer options

It kinda lags now, but I am now downloading the pack with your zimage and haret files so I can see how that goes.

How can I tweak the performance settings under cyanogen options so that it can run faster? It has JIT enabled but not compcache.

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] milanche:
Didn't try that yet, but you could enable compcache and report how it went. I plan to release 2 versions of RLS2, odexed and unodexed. We'll se how the performance will be with odexed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] nemuro:
I dont know what seems the problem, but now after a clean install with the haret files provided, it still runs very slow. The lags are frequent. The launcher hangs and asks if I want to wait or force close... I didn't manage to get passed the market agreement, it loads forever.

This happens when I connect using wi-fi while using panel3. Guess i'll stick to 2.1 until froyo is more optimised.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] ktutza2006:
when i try to enable it, show 'error' message. i'll try to reinstall today, maybe will fix the problem.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] milanche:
The problem could be related to my release. You shouldn't give up on Froyo, as it in my opinion doesnt lack behind Eclair in no way. Try other releases, e.g. Fresh froyo or Incubuses Froyo release (under Vogue forum - it also suport Kaiser Wifi)..

I'm a haret user, on an AT&T Tilt.

I use ext2 partitions for system, data, plus a swap partition, on my external flash.

Don't know if the swap helps or is even used, but being an old-time Linux user I'm used to having swap even on embedded systems like Nokia N800.

I've been using the other Froyo's, with odex; have been generally very pleased but have experienced many lock-ups, mostly when sleeping.

This version seems very sluggish at first, until the JIT kicks in. After some use, it seems as fast as the other Froyo's and I haven't had a lockup yet.

Market crashes, but restarts with no harm.

Overall, I like it.
