just installed the 02-08 package on my DIAM100.

Wifi doesnt seem to be working for me. Keeps scanning without results.

Data connection working perfectly, installing some apps at the moment and gonna try GPS when i drive back home.

Speed is amazing though. Haven't even tried compache & JIT but going to in a minute.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] neopeek:
@Zommy: You may consider to check wireless settings (press home-key in wireless settings). Please check if your legal channels settings. Sometimes they are set to 11 and you would enable it to scann also up to 13 / 14 channels if your AP is configured like that...

Wi-fi

Hi all...

Yes, wi-fi issue seems to be when u try to connect into an highly enchipted signal: less encription results in an easy connection. Atm i'm connected in a different wi-fi line (discovering take at least 5 sec) and signal is perfect (i cannot say the same for the main antenna strenght - one two bar at max... -.-).

I take mine the hint to remove background and... and with wi-fi up (and working) ... battery drain seems less than before ... (i'm not overclocked) near 500 mAh (25%) in about 2 hour.

FB for android crashed after 2 min.

Lock/Unlock resuming works like a charm.

PS.: i have >800MB ext2 partition : Is this totally wrong?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zommy:
thx for the help, turned out my AP was acting up. Everything is working now.

Gonna drive home in 10 minutes, i'll let you guys know if my GPS is working aswell.

So far only bugs i've seen are a couple of force quits on launcher.

Like to add that you did an excellent job on this one :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Recoda:
I just gave this version a try, and it seems very slow to me. I installed it using both the old method, as well as the installer, but it takes at least 10 seconds to launch an application, and everything goes very slow. The original Windows Mobile rom is a lot faster, and I'm just wondering if I did anything wrong, or is it really that fast?

I can't use it on daily basis now, since it would take me 20 seconds to open the caller and call someone, but I'm still amazed that you got Android working on it, and would love to be able to use it full time.

Is there any youtube-video out there so I can compare? Because I can't imagine that this is right. There has to be a way to make it faster?

Edit:

I compared it to this Youtube-video, and this is a whole lot faster compared to mine. What should I do to improve the speed?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zommy:
Used the GPS to drive home today and it's working too, it rebooted though when i was using it so i ended up in WinMo again. Not sure if it had anything to do with my phone dropping off the dashboard though :). Gonna test it some more tomorrow even try an offline navigation program.

Battery usage is ok so far, gonna try to get it through the night with 3g off.

Got a question though could changing WinMo ROM increase my batterytime e.g. if i get a clean lite ROM or something?

I would be interested in a link or description about how to install this from a windows desktop instead of a linux desktop.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] neopeek:
You won't Linux any more. Just take some minutes and read carefully first post and follow links for more deatiled instructions. All you need is a Gparted LiveCD which you can download as iso and burn onto CD or make a bootbale USB-Pen. After you have successfully created the EXT2 partition you won't never ever need to recreate it any more in future. Just use always Windows to install new builds / updates...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Jokerchris2000:
I've tried now several ports from neopeek and also the famous Myn's Donut Rom.

After all i have to say, that the function of the actual nightly build of Froyoredux 2-8-10 is very impressive. But the speed is a little slow on my Diamond 100.

So it sometimes stucks for several seconds when i open a program or go to the settings.

What about the SuperF-Port? This was very fast...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fu-raz:
I'll try the new Froyredux build today, and let you know what I think.

But I have so say about the Froyorider build that it's impressive. It was a little sluggish (I'm used to the SuperFroyo build) and I had a few issues. At one time when I made a call, all I heard was garbled sound. It sounded like it was encrypted hahaha. Also the bluetooth found my headset, but didn't want to connect. It also crashed a few times...

Aside from those issues, everything worked out of the box. I'm hoping the redux build is even better! :D

setup information is not simple

Dear

Dear

Vatoloco

I think that setup information is not simple. I am sure some people thinks the same thing. its

part of the installation is English.and part of information in German ( screen views)

I know a lot of people do not German Language. We have therefore failed installation.

I hope you give the recipe a setup more descriptive.

My installation !!( whats wrong) ( diamond P3700)

I Created 1st partition fat 32 (2200 mb)2nd partition EXT2-Partition (500 mb) 3st partition linuxswap with( 75MB)

* I Downloaded Neopeek Android Installer

* Extract npkinstall.zip to the root of your internal storage

* I Downloaded Haret-Paket

* I Extracted contents of Haret-Paket to the root of My device internal storage.

* And Downloaded latest CyanogenMod6-Port I maked rename this download to androidinstall.tar.gz and put it into the npkinstall-folder. There are several Text-Files in this folder like diamond.txt, raphael.txt etc. Just rename the one that matches your device to startup.txt.(ok)

* Now run install.exe within the npkinstall-folder. My device l rebooted when it has finished installation.

* Moved to the root of my device memory where you have extracted Haret-Paket

* Located Startups-Folder and copy the startup.txt which matched my device to the root of my memory

* Now run Haret.exe from the root of my memory and Android booted up!.

Not working.??

Bye
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] neopeek:
Which error messages do you see when rtunning HARET.EXE? As it works for almost anybody else I don't know exactly how to make it even more easier.

Create partition if you have none created, yet

Download build and rename to androidinstall.tar.gz

Rename text-file in npkinstall-folder

Copy text-file from startups-folder to your root

Start install.exe

Start haret.exe

That's it!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] manasmadhup:

I know it sounds frustrating , but after doing everything that's what happens

Hi,

I have tried 01-08 CM6 release, the 02-08 Froyoredux and SuperF. SuperF is by far the fastest but unfortunately lack wifi functionality and market (and maybe others but this is what i noticed).

When should we expect a new release of SuperF ?

Thanks

As soon as Ben Buchacher release the new version. I will then immediately port it. So expect it to be released one day after Ben's release...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zommy:
Been using this build full time for a couple of days and i love it. It's fully functional with 3G, Wifi, GPS, BT. I've tested GPS with 3rd party apps and it works excellent.

The speed is good though i haven't got any experience with the other builds so i don't know if it is faster on those.

The only small problem is the battery life. It seems to drain my battery in 4-6 hours in stand-by with 3G and a google account installed. Fortunately i allways have a charger around so it isn't that much of a problem.

Only ran in to some minor bugs where i couldn't get my phone out of standby and a couple of FQ's with the launcher & phone.

I have a question about updating the build when newer ones come out. How do i update my phone without losing my current settings & apps?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] skyhacker:
i'm using the 30-07 cm6 build,in my opinion it's faster than superf and my phone is really flying, i'm having one problem though, I have a LG bluetooth headset and when I try to pair it with the phone it says error pairing the device, it works on WM anyone else had such problem ??

Thx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] AnnihilatorSC:
Small problem? You gotta be joking. It's a bloody showstopper!

Is there anything we, regular community members with poor/no development skills, can do to help the developers in solving the power management issue?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] neopeek:
You can try to use TitaniumBackup. Go grab it from Market...

Unfortunately soem users reported pairing problems. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Well the small battery in the diamond was crap for me to start with so i didn't expect it to be much better :). During work i just have it connected to my computer so it's basicly allways full when i go out and then i hold out ok for the rest of the day. I charge it again during the night and follow the same procedure.

When i have to travel i got my car charger with me so i don't see why it would be such a big problem :)

Setup this Android is so simple.

With a USB live linux distribution u can easily perform a partition of your 4GB Diamond.

3,2GB FAT32 0,5GB EXT2 0,1GB SWAP

After u can copy all u have before again inside the 3.2GB Partition

Put inside the root of 3.2GB partition neo folder + Haret + Android image in tar format

Boot in WM mode and then read the 1rst post... all is very easy.

To any of you thats using swap on there sdcard's, be ware that can in time degrade your sdcard and ultimatly reder it useless(shorten its life span) . thas why now a days we use squashfs only and 0 swap file/parttion. Its up to you to use it or not.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] batabe:
did you copy the full of the haret pack onto the root of your internal storage? including the right startup.txt according to your device?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] neopeek:
This means you use the wron startup.txt. Looks to me as if you are using initrd.gz from the installer.exe! That's the wrong way. You will have to use the startup.txt from Haret-Paket!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sdfguerreiro:
Yep...confirmed all...done it as you said...when executing haret.exe it says:

attempting to execute /init

rebooting in 7 sec

I don't know what i'm doing wrong...after install.exe success, copied diamond's startup to the root and execute haret.exe....nothing...only message above!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] neopeek:
Hmm when you use correct startup and it still doesn't work -> begin from scratch as you are doing soething wrong. Perhaps when partitioning. cause when haret doesn't find /init it means that it can't also find the ext2-partition. So you are doing something wrong

WM see less space when u access at internal storage... Linux partiotion is invisible. U can start Android via Haret. That's all.

Quick fix for Market in CM6 RC3

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!
