Great, thanks for confirming! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mstrk242:
Works fine for me, just one issue:

The bootloader, when it doesn't find an android install, and you go to disable the bootloader, it gives an error. (I use a different loader) Anyone else get this? (Very minor, just curious)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] c4Lvin:
Downloads and installs just fine scotsman! looks great too! Any tips or tweaks/adjustments needed on your ROM (i just changed the dates)...should i lessen the brightness of it?

Hi scotsman

thank you for share your Rom, it's great to me.

i installed 1.0 version yesterday, what's different 1.1ver?

if it's not major, can i stay 1.0?

thanks a lot

PS sorry about my poor english
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] victa:
Just put OZDroid 1.10 on...

Loads fast, but EEEEWWW... how do people USE their phones like that???

All the Sensey goodness nowhere to be seen... :P

Upon first boot into android, screwed up my time by an hour, and "forgot" that it had already shown me how to use the keyboard, but otherwise all good!

Cheers,

Chris.

(PS. Love the new HTC loading screen :D)

EDIT: One of these days one of your ROMs will default to "English (Australia)" :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
Can you tell me the error, what does it say?

Leave brightness set to max to ensure no strange screen issues occur in Android. Nothing else should need tweaked...it's already tweaked for Andorid use :)

Date and time should fix themselves once you get a connection to your phone network.

There's no huge differences...the boot loader appears much quicker...thats the main difference :)

Yea, time should fix itself once you get connected to your phone network on first boot.

lol, yea, I just leave UK default as thats what most people expect it to be ... :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mstrk242:
I get a NullReferenceException when I try to disable the android loader, then hit ok and I get Error While Disabling the app, it may already be disabled. (Which it's not when I reboot)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
Ahhhh...I know what the problem is...

If you want to disable it, delete the file from \Windows\Startup...it might give you a permission error or something.

I'll make up a cab to disable it for those who want to :)

Astro

Sigh...

Astro seems to be broken now... :(

Asks me to agree to the EULA each time i run it, then gives me a Force Close...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
The WM ROM doesn't touch Android...must be a coincidence...I've done a lot of testing and nothing is broken...Astro still working too.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mstrk242:
Removing it from windows startup folder works. (It's what I was planning on doing anyways) Just figured I'd let you know, incase others were seeing it. Thanks for the quick response!

Everything is working beautifully, by the way :)

Will be releasing OzDROID with WM 6.5 later tonight, let you choose either 6.5 or 6.5.5 as I know some people still don't like the start menu at the bottom...:p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] technomania34:
Thanks my friend...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] RE795:
Firstly... Great Work!!!

Is it possible to include Quick Gps Settings in this build (as well as 6.5.5) as this is needed for fast gps fix in both WM and Android when using GPS.

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
I don't think it helps in Android, but since I have GPS functionality in WM, I can include it :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] RE795:
Many Thanks...

It does help in both WM and Android...

with Quick GPS you usually get your gps/location fix within a minute (even indoors, sometimes), whereas without Quick Gps, it takes a long time (around 5 - 10 minutes, sometimes).

Again,

Much Thanks,

Thomas.

i wanna ask which radio do you recommend to acompany with your ozdroid Rom???

I use 2.12 and have never had a problem, so I'd start with that one :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Shaelz:
While booting from Linux I get a:

Failed to mount the SD Card, cannot continue

/bin/sh: cant access tty; job control turned off

won't boot into android for me at all, and furthermore - i thought this rom would auto boot, I didn't want to have to push a button..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
No one else has reported this issue, with over 700 downloads since Saturday.

Also, as I stated earlier in the thread, autoboot is something I'm working on...I didn't say anywhere that it is autobooting at the moment.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] krat0s123:
Just try to use the original startup and rewrite the one you have right now on your Android folder.. You must have clicked the Repair Android Bootup that's why it happened.. Try it.. Anyway, thanks Scotsman for this ROM.. Just what we need.. Minimal but still functional.. Just waiting for your autoboot and I'll be a very happy camper.. Not that I'm not happy now.. No rush.. Thanks again for all your hardwork.. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] willgill:
Autoboot is ok, but I wonder if some of them boot too fast before everything is initialized (ChuckyDroid). That is the while point of these light WinMo builds.... bare bones, just initialize. If a feature isn't a tool for Android or initialize something for Android, I think it should be stripped out of this build. Be cautious of requests for options that just make WinMo prettier.

Back to autoboot. Really... how often do you need to press the Boot Android button? Once a day? Twice a week? IT WORKS AS IS!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Shaelz:
I had pushed that button to try to 'fix' bootloader - as I thought this would allow it to autoboot.. but what that did was completely corrupt my startup.txt so I fixed it and now she's sweet.

thanks. Please do continue efforts on auto-boot, i don't think anyone who was using winmobile at all anyways would be using this rom.. so I think it's necessary.

Cheers

If you add radio, it will be perfect. Because there is no radio in nexus android and when we want we can listen in windows mobile

Audio manager error on boot into titanium

Anyone else getting a big error window when you boot into windows? I got it when I used ChuckyDroid too. Audio manager error...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] harpreet1988:
In the OzDroid ROM in windows mobile, I am trying to connect to wifi and use IE to try and download/use/test Opera mobile 10. But in the notification bar it says it's connected to my wifi network. But when I go to start -> settings -> connection -> wifi, there's a box that says "turn on wifi" it stays unchecked, and when I check it, it unchecks itself after a few seconds. IE won't load any pages.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mongrel~cat:
Help plz. Firstly, thanks for creating this, like it very much, nice and light, no excess and bloat, nice loader for Android which is what I want. Perfect. :cool:

I noticed that I have incomplete contacts (3) in Android. I'm using the new FRG33 that was put up a couple days ago. So then I reboot and check in Oz, no contacts there either, actually none - 0.

Curiously, in both OSs my phone number is wrong. I bought my phone used and I initially saw a different number when I plugged in my SIM and booted, but then I cleared settings with a hard reset and the problem went away and correct number was shown, contacts populated (from the SIM, I think.,) etc. This has been the case as I've tried a few ROMs and versions of Android over the past week or so.

I have checked the SIM in 'droid with Contact2Sim, there are contacts still there.

I have done a hard reset and that has not changed the behaviour. I did not Task29 prior to installing Oz, though I have Task29'd before, installing other ROMS (ChuckyD, etc.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

TMOUS

15.39.50.07U_2.10.50.26

EDIT: I was able to populate contacts from SIM in 'droid, simply needed to find and use the Import function from the dialer. But I don't see this function under Oz, and the weird phone number still remains in both environments.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
I can understand what youre saying, but if I keep adding things then it's not going to be a bare ROM anymore, and I may as well just use my two full ROMs...most Android builds have the radio so it's generally not an issue.

Which folder on your sd card is Android in?

Nope, never seen this happen...I haven't even included Audio Manager in this ROM :)

I just tested my WiFi and it works fine when browsing the net. I did also see that in start > Settings > wifi, it stays unticked...I'll see what I can do about this.

I suggest you either turn it on with that check box only, or using the Start > comms > WiFi toggle only...one or the other, not both...

I don't think I included the SIM stuff in this ROM...this is maybe something I should include in future releases....should fix your problem I think.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] danielfc741:
Help me Please!

I donwloaded the file and all i got was the RUU_signed. How do i install this rom with just that file? When i flash roms it usually comes with an exe. I currently have the ChuckyDroid and wanted to try this rom out.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
Just keep that exe somewhere...I don't usually include the exe with my ROMs as the file can be found everywhere, including here :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] danielfc741:
i cant quote your message scotsman, but thanks a a lot! I'm now using your rom and enjoying it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Azrel37:
I found the issue. Autoinstall file has 'music library rebuild'. That was causing the weird audiomanager issue. I pulled it from autoinstall folder and deleted app and I'm good now.

OzDroid

Hi Guys

I have been following this for a bit and I think I got lost after about the 5th page now What does this rom do Is it just for use in android is is wm still in it? I mean does the phone still work if you got no droid? Am using 4.81 with radio 2.11

and am very happy but I don't know whether I should change anything. (If it ain't broke why fix it). Maybe I should wait for Dave to include the droid software if that's possible I don;t know!!!!!!:confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
This ROM is a "cut down" version of Windows Mobile. It boots up very quickly, and is mainly intended for users who use Android most of the time.

It contains the basic apps in Windows Mobile to let users fall back on it if Android goes belly up for some reason.

I would like to include Mattc build of Android in my ROM, but he hasn't replied to my PMs, so I don't know what's going on with that yet...:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mickthegreek:
Thanks Dave

I'll Wait until its included:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] willgill:
If it were on the NAND, I'd be for that. However, I vote for you keeping them separate if mattc froyosense would still be on the SD card. Maybe I am missing something, but i don't see the advantage. Also, how would it be part of your ROM? I'd like to hear what you were thinking.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
I would still have the ROM available without the Android build included. It would just be an easy way for people to install it all without knowing how to do it...making it easier for them.

The other CleanEX guys do this with shubi's build. Basically, the Android folder gets copied to the SD card when you flash the ROM...and a few things are done...

Thinking about it, to be honest it's quite simple to do yourself.

Backup your sd card then format it. Download your build of choice and extract all the files to a folder called Android on your Sd card. Then use the bootloader to run andorid. That's about it :)

The only thing that would happen if I include it in my ROM would be that it copies the files to the sd card for you really...not much more...

Maybe I wont bother including it, as it's not really beneficial after thinking about it :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Dasf77:
I have installed this rom and have to day its fast.

Only issue is that it had changed my time both wv and android even using the right timezone GMT+1. It should be 2:18 and i get 17:08?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
The time should correct itself once you get connected to your phone network.

Loving OzDroid Rom!

I'm really loving this ROM. I've narrowed down to having only two Android builds on my sdcard. I'm running warrenb's Re-Build on shubCRAFT v1.5(awesomeness even if it's RMNET, he does have a PPP build I believe) and Bangster's latest. They both run beautifully on your ROM. LOL. I just saw that you just put out 6.5.x v1.11...sigh...just downloaded it and now have to flash :D Great job Dave! Quick question. Can I throw google maps and flashlight on your ROM? Those are the 2 main apps I have to use if I'm running WM. DOH! or is maps already in it? Just saw that you have 'Quick Gps' in it this time around. Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] willgill:
My experience with OzDroid

the_scotsman, I wanted to report on all the good and one issue.

You can see my combo below, essentially, OzDROID, mattc 1.7ppp and 2.10 radio.

I've NEVER had ppp working correctly until this combo. I haven't experienced any freeze or hesitation at all while connected to 3G/H.

Bluetooth, data, marketplace, voice, music, it all works as it should. It's just quick and flawless.

However, when I switch to WiFi, it's not quite right. At first it seems ok. It connects quickly and downloads are pretty fast. When I let the phone go to sleep for awhile, I have to keep pressing menu and swiping to unlock to get it to unlock. I can always unlock it, but it takes 10 to 15 seconds. When it does unlock, WiFi needs to be turned off and on to get it working correctly. It's as if transitioning from WiFi to 3G/H doesn't work smoothly.

I'm thinking it's a kernel problem, so I'm not really looking for answers (unless you have some :) ) I'm just sharing my experience.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Azrel37:
Swype works

For those of you NOT loving the teenie tiny keyboard on the WM side of OzDroid, be happy to know that the Swype keyboard works great. Only bad thing is that I forgot where I got the cab :( If anyone can post a link to it, that would be great! I also put google maps and flashlight on it just for the heck of it. They're the apps I use most on WM. Thanks again for the great ROM Dave. OzDROID rocks! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=653256 I installed this one: [Keyboard] Swype WVGA.cab
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
Thanks :)

You can try Google maps...it should work ok...Flashlight shouldn't be a problem at all either :)

Hmmm...haven't seen this happen..I use mattc 1.7 but with the overclocked/undervolted kernel...

Glad you're liking the ROM :)

Yep, that's a nice alternative! I wasn't sure if it would install without having the original keyboard in there, so thanks for confirming ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] edi1907:
Please add radio, it will be wonderfull. Because there is no radio in android. When we want we can listen in your rom. There is no radio in nexus android.

Am I not right?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ced357:
i will test your titanium ozdroid rom in a few minutes...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nks2105:
i just read the whole thread and I'm very eager to try that rom!

it looks like an improvement over my current but old chuckydroid rom :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ced357:
Very fast and stable, i will keep it a little time...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] iena:
I was running Gavin's CleanEx when on WM, so now that I use Android (Shub 1.5) as my everyday build, I moved to this from NRG bare bones, and I find it faster and better. I experience less freezes and rebooting times are quicker, and I prefer the functionality.

Will try an SD card full-formatting and flash your last version hoping the connectivity issues I'm experiencing (upload arrow in taskbar stays on and data stops till I restart it) will be taken care of then - unless someone has a better suggestion?

Verdict so far: awesome sauce :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lankylarry:
Ive just flashed the ROM but when the phone starts I sticks at the htc logo, and goes no further. I have now tried both versions you offer and it doesnt get pas the logo. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I have fixed it now, put the latest Radio on, what a dumb s##t i am.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] the_scotsman:
lol...no problem....easy mistake :)

I can't flash my ROM, it keeps getting stuck at the htc screen at 0%. I have used the customruu and it doesn't move from 0%. What do i do? Please help

By the way, i saw the other post where the guy had the same problemm but i still don't know what to do. P:

Nevermind i got it, I haven't flash the radio and i'm not sure if i have to. But i'll get back if i start having problems. Hopefully i don't ):

No problem...glad you're liking it :)

Ah good :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] victa:
To be honest I have seen less than a minute of it's non-sense ugliness since flashing it last week... :)

So yeah... working just fine... :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mongrel~cat:
Just wanted to followup, I'm still running the version prior to 1.10.

Using OzDroid with FRG33 I have a usable Android phone for the first time. It's not 100% stable, but good enough for me. Many, many thanks for your efforts.

The phone number still shows up wrong under OzDroid, but it's now correct under Android. Maybe I need to receive a call while booted under Oz, that's the only thing I can think of. I can dial out just fine under Oz.

Last I heard recharging while under Android was a bad idea, so I boot into Oz before I go to bed and let it charge overnight, and then switch to Android during the day. The alarm clocks in Oz work great! :)

Thanks again, I don't see myself needing to try any other ROMs now, except maybe to upgrade to a newer version of yours....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hastarin:
I've just installed it and whilst it took me a while to figure out the basics it's up and running. So far, with limited use, the touchscreen stopped responding once (in Android) but will see how I go and try to remember to report back in a week or so. Of course I doubt that's any fault of your ROM anyway.

I did notice you've left BSB Tweaks out. A way to enable auto rotate for apps under Windows Mobile might be nice (that's the only one I know of off the top of my head). The only app I'll probably still need under WM is TomTom and it needs the landscape support.

A hint for folks trying to Sync with Gmail. Don't use the Mail/Sync options, just go to the Gmail icon and set things up via that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] victa:
I did this initially, but the HTC mail app and widget works with activesync and pop3, not gmail sync... :(

I have ended up with both configured, as somehow the gmail app configured itself... maybe from loging into the market?

Now I get 2 notifications about each email... probably should do something about that... :p

Cheers,

Chris

For rotation you can download and install Gyrator (http://gyrator.brins0.net/?page=downloads). I support the intent of keeping this ROM as bare as possible.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] The_Steph:
the_scotsman,

This is true, I like your ROM as it is booting really fast and dual-boot menu is clean and effective. But I saw a bug this morning. I had to use a real GPS software program (that I is not available on Android) and I couldn't see any details for any of my contacts.

In contacts, I can see the primary contact phone number but as sson s I click on the contact to have its details, display is plain white, I can't see anything.

It is really strange having taken into account that i did a Task29 before flashing your ROM.

Did you see this behaviour before ?

hello using latest ozdroid build, love it.only one issue when i go to turn on wifi router it gives me an error saying that it cant turn on wifi . tried turning on wifi manually but did not work.funny thing is im using Nexus One build FRG33 and the router and wifi work perfect when i use android im actually on it know. do i need to change setting on oz droid to make it work.

thank you
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cwhtree:
Hello... I have been using your lastest ROM since you posted it up.

On the WM side:

I have had great success with it. ActiveSync works with GMail. I have installed Swype for the keyboard and that is working great. I get HSPA speed on internet usage.

On the Android side:

I use Nexus One build FRG33 V1 and find that it is working great. Just a handfull of slow responses from wake up but all other options are working. BT, WiFi, WiFi Teathering, Market Apps have installed without issue. Battery life is perfectly acceptable for me.

No complaints here... Thanks for the build!
