[G1 Android Development] amitabhishek:
I have been trying to compile Froyo source for days now.

Reason:

I need a ROM tweaked to my needs. I would'nt say I am entirely unsuccessful except for boot.img. Cutting long story short. Let my script do the talking:

It takes time but source does compile without much hassle. I get the .img(s) in ~/mydroid/out/target/product/dream directory. Now the problem is my boot.img refuses to boot the phone. ddms doesn't show any logs either. Just to be sure I even downloaded, renamed (as <msm>) & compiled the original kernel source from

but no success. Temporarily I am using superF's boot.img and gapps from CM6. ROM is very fast and looks stable. Probably the only thing that's broken is wifi. Which I assume can be interrelated.

Can anyone please guide me in the right direction.. Screenies to show that I am mostly on the right track except for boot.img fsck up!

P.S. I hope I have posted in correct section; it says Android development. :)
[G1 Android Development] amitabhishek:
Even though the thread remained unanswered; I even been working on this issue on my own. I have tried every trick (that I can think of) of the trade.

1st attempt:

I pulled .config from the brand new CM6, replaced existing .config and commented out msm def_config and did:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$SOURCE_FOLDER/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- oldconfig
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$SOURCE_FOLDER/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- zimage

Upon compiling; the system asked a dozen question which I bypassed by pressing enter. After a while I got boot.img in --/out/--directory which did'nt work after using fastboot.

The phone just froze with a standard Vodafone splash screen.

2nd attempt:

Replaced contents of existing msm def_config with content of .config that I pulled earlier from CM6 and did standard "make ARCH=arm msm_defconfig". Same fsking result upon compiling :(.

I have a feeling that I have been $crewing up on .config but I may be wrong. I request all of you stalwarts to step in & help me out. I have pasted my script for reference:

#!/bin/bash

#git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/msm.git

#unzip the proprietary files from HTC for Sapphire

[Desire General] DesireOwner10:
Ok..finally got my Desire to Froyo..have been quite happy until I noticed that I can no longer upload Calendar updates to my PC's Outlook calendar.

I can make changes on the my Windows 7 PC's Outlook Calendar and have that go to my Desire but any Calendar changes on my Desire will not synch up to my PC's Outlook calendar. There are no problems with synch'ing contacts. Yes, I used the PC Synch calendar on the Desire.

This wasn't a problem before. Is HTC Synch not 100% compatiblewith Froyo?

Thanks for any insights.
[Desire General] DesireOwner10:
PS:

1) Tried uninstalling/reinstalling HTC synch - no change there.

2) I've also noted that recurring entries in the calendar (eg: Birthdays) are getting duplicated on the days they occur (ie: 2 entries in the same day). Also, there are duplicate contacts being produced too.
[Desire General] mrdo:
sorry i'm not going to be much help here but i agree that htc sync is unpredictable at best. i constantly have to reboot my pc or phone or both to get sync to work and now my contacts have stopped syncing. again.

you might want to search for a leak of the updated version of htc sync to see if that helps. i'm assuming that it was pulled for a valid reason but it might be worth a try ...
[Desire General] popkid:
I also have the same behaviour, new entries in the phone calendar are not added to the outlook calendar despite being flagged as "PC Sync"

For the birthday thing, I think that it is to do with the info you have stored against a contact in their contact card in outlook, if you have a date for their birthday in the details section of the contact, then sync repeatedly adds it to the calendar for you, even if it is there already
[Desire General] Vidas P:
I have the same problem. So I've moved all Calendar entries in Outlook to temporary forder, then from Desire removed Outlook account, manually deleted all Outlook calendar entries in Desire's Calendar (they have left there, despite of account deletion) , then recreated Outlook account (Calendar after all these steps synced OK), and moved back all Calendar entries in Outlook from temporary folder back to main. This solved the non sync problem.

After all I've talked with Exchange specialist. He said, that for some reason Calendar database in Desire become corrupt, and after that the syncing become unimpossible.
[Desire General] popkid:
Ok, I've managed to fix this (I think anyway!) works for me with outlook 2003, Couple of steps:

Step 1 (optional) gets your missing items onto your PC:

In HTC sync Manger (on PC) go into "settings" then calendar, then click properties, untick deafult calendar and then when selecting the folder to sync with, create a new calendar "temp" or something

Now sync with that calendar: for me this meant that everything on my phone (including the items not uploading before) now goes into this new calendar

Now go back and revert to syncing to the original calendar (the default calendar or me) and lo and behold the missing items now sync up to that too

I thought this was everything sorted, but new items created in the phone still don't sync up to outlook....

so Step 2:

On phone, go into settings, applications, manage applications, all

then for calendar and calendar storage apps go in and "clear data", this will leave you with an empty calandar on your phone, but don't panic...

in HTC sync manger (on PC) go into settings and unselect contact syncing (otherwise the PC will overwrite contact info)

Then go into "repair" and select option for PC to overwrite phone

you can now reselect contacts to sync too under settings menu in HTC sync

Having done this, everything is back on my phone and (for now at least) new appointment items created on the phone sync up correctly too

Hope this helps someone,

P
[Desire General] DesireOwner10:
THANKS!

Caution HTC Sync 3.0.5422

(Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30)

3.0 does not have the feature to do a repair - force copy clean from handset or PC.

For me, sych has resulted in a large number of yearly recurring all day events being duplicated and copied with a one hour adjustment - the new ones run from 1:00-1:00 and thus span two days.

I am back using 2.0.33 (which is not without bugs either)

If you're into soft cases, this fits quite well:

http://www.caselogic.com/sony_psp_g...il/index.cfm?modelid=126770&productid=1328570

I removed the game organiser (the black board with the 2 slots for UMD discs) before using it.

There's a cm worth of slack at the top flap, but that remains flat in use and the whole case fits well without any slack at the sides and without stretching excessively. Most importantly for me, the device is completely protected and the inside of the case is made from microfiber rather than velvety stuff. It's been 2 weeks and I haven't noticed even fine scratches.

With a bit of extra stretching (not recommended for everyone), I can even get the case on with a pair of earphones plugged in.

If anyone needs pics, let me know and I'll post some.

[Vibrant General] MedStev:
Hi,

I flashed True Stock 2.1 firmware onto my Bell Vibrant. When I try to connect my Vibrant to my computer, the computer does not recognize my phone (Kies and Odin). I have tried re-installing the drivers numerous times, from numerous sources and it is still not working. Unfortunately at this time, I am not rooted in the new ROM and cannot run my backup. The ROM seems to be running fine so far.

Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks.
[Vibrant General] magatron76:

The same thing happened to me and I found that if I put the phone into recovery mode and plugged USB in that the drivers automatically installed.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1991stonecold:
Hi,

If I knew how I would made it myself, but would it be possible to create a app that when the charger is inserted the phone goes to night clock?

I only charger at night and have to set it to night clock manually, so I though it would be nice with an app that does it automatically.

Or a simpler way would be to create a shortcut that set night clock, but does that exists?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chobie:

I rang up the other day and got them to switch my contract over for free. I'm on the $59 social, and basically if you think you use less than 1GB of youtube a month then you can get more calls, 2GB of data and unlimited voice and video calls to all optus ppl including landlines still with unlimited SMS.

AWESOME plans.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
You may be interested in Exetel's too..

$15 per GB, uses the optus network, and Exetel can provide Voip.. $5 minimum per month.. So if you use 2GB max and less than $34 phone/sms per month, it works out to be WAYYY cheaper.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spenceee:
I couldn't call my wife and friends on that plan. The amount of calls for the price is sweet !
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JaeCee:
Might have to jump on this. I got friends from Optus who were commenting on the massive youtube use from the social plans and I suppose this was their solution. I personally save tube vids on my computer and just transfer to my phone so 2 gb on other stuff would be awesome

I recently left the dreaded Telstra and went to Virgin for $69 i get unlimited txt and calls to other virgin mobiles the girlfriend is on Virgin so that works out. And i also get unlimited txt to any mobile in Australia as well as 3 gig of data a month plus $450 worth of calls a month. Plus unused credit rolled over to the next month. I am so glad i got out of Telstra and will never look back.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Berzerker7:
Tired of typing out that long "mount" command for remount system as read/write in Android?

NOTE: This is for S-OFF only!

Before you start, run this command in adb:

ls /system/bin/bash

If you get "bash: no such file or directory", run this command

ln -s /system/bin/sh /system/bin/bash

A new command prompt means the command completed successfully.

Now ensure bash is there:

ls /system/bin/bash

If it finds "bash", then continue on!

Here are two easy ways to stop the typing and make your life easier!

If you like using adb:

1. Download this zip, extract, and push the "sysrw" and "sysro" files to /system/xbin

2. Then run chmod 755 /system/xbin/sysrw and chmod 755 /system/xbin/sysro

Now, all you have to do is shell in and type "sysrw" to remount as read/write, or "sysro" to remount back to read-only!

If you don't like using adb:

1. Download Scripter from the market, QR:

2. Open Scripter, and tap on "Scan script" and scan these two QR codes:

sysrw:

sysro:

You can run them to make sure they work.

3. Long press on each one and save as "system read/write" and "system read-only" to know which one does which. (If you forget, the one with the command remount,rw is read/write, and the one with remount,ro is read-only)

That's it! Just open Scripter and tap on each to run them when you need to remount system!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
Cool, you beat me to it. I was going to post something similar. Another option to keep in mind if you are using adb is the command:

adb remount

Run that command before anything else and it will remount your partitions as rw. Then you can push anything you want to /system.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MrDanger:
This makes developing within the phone much easier and more fun.

What I did before these scripts was when I opened my Terminal Emulator on my phone, I had the mount -r blah.. as an initial command. Worked nicely for a while. I like this better because I can set it back as read only with ease.

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mozetti:
Awesome, thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kentoe:
This is the same as going into root explorer and clicking mount R/W for read/write, correct?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mozetti:
Is this supposed to make the build.prop file rw? Because when I run the script, the file still says -r-.

I'm not seeing a change to the /system folder when running the script. The permissions in Astro say dr- before I run the script and don't change after I run it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
This has nothing to do with changing file permissions--it shouldn't permanently change anything. Running this script is like kinda giving Ubuntu elevated privileges -- you are authorizing read-write access for yourself to make changes to /system, temporarily. It ends when you run the other script, reboot, or kill the terminal session you started (I assume).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mozetti:
Ok, so if I run this script then should I be able to open build.prop with Astro (long-hold, open as text, using file editor), make changes, and then save the file?

Because if that's the case, it's not working. I'm not a Linux pro, but I run Ubuntu on my desktop. I'm pretty sure that if you mount /system as read-write (which this script is supposed to do), then the permissions that show in Astro for the /system folder shouldn't b dr-, correct?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
AFAIK, Astro does not do root privileges, you need Root Explorer to do what you trying to do. Perhaps someone else will chime in who knows how to give multiple processes r/w. The way I would do that without Root Explorer is to open the build.prop in a text editor, make changes, then write it to /data, then in terminal emulator, remount /system, and then move the file to system with build.prop.new, rename the original something like build.prop.old, then rename new to build prop.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mozetti:
Ok, thanks. I'm not ready to pay for root explorer because I'm not sure how much I'm going to need it. I'll give your method a shot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
In your position, I'd use adb, actually. It's pretty easy to push/pull in adb rather than all that copying and renaming :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Berzerker7:
Yes, it's for people who don't want to spend the money or who like the command line.

No, this doesn't let you edit specific files on system, it just lets you add or delete files while in Android. If you want to change build.prop, you need to pull it, edit it, and push it back and reboot. Before, we had to do this in recovery mode, now you can do it in Android by making system read/write with these scripts.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ihtfp69:
I think Android Mate has root file explorer. It's free as well. Try that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mozetti:
Thanks, installing it now.

**EDIT** Just in case anyone else is following this, Android Mate didn't work. It requested and received ROOT privileges but when I try to paste a file into /system, it doesn't work. It gives me a message that says it copied the file, but the file doesn't actually get put into the folder. **/EDIT**
[Droid Incredible Android Development] opcode1300:
remember that "adb remount" only works if the default.prop has the "ro.secure=0" in the boot.img(ramdisk), most most kernels are using the anykernel method, which uses the existing ramdisk. so unless you or the ROM cook change the ramdisk it will be set to "ro.secure=1"

CW recovery uses its own default.prop with the setting changed.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sucker4pa1n:
I think these scripts are something Adrynalyne has had in his ROMs since he put out the "One ROM to Rule Them All".

*shrug* Cool that you got a simpler/portable way instead of pulling them out of Adryn's roms
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Matt Devo:
these work great, very handy thanks!
