You could read the % on winmobile,than keep android on standby for 1 or 2 hours and then go back to winmo and read again the %
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
I recharged battery to 100% (checked in WINMO) and then entered haret and unplugged cable at 1AM. Witch is 10 minutes ago in my timezone.

Ill report to you later in the morning. about 8 hours after i started this. I hope battery can stay alive for 8 hours. If not i will test it by 2 hours intervals tommorow.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
First results are disappointing

30% after just a single hour. From 100% to 70%.

I Havent called, typed or used phone at all. No display backlight, no wifi, no nothing and it consumed 30% of baterry for just one hour.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] awds1130:
I'm not booting
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Magarusu:
Is this working with psfreedom?

and if it does, do I need to keep my phone pluged while running haret, or it has active sync all by himself:D
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Sequester:
Froy port to X1

Very exciting news!

Hope this will result in a build which can be used on an every day basis. As mentioned before, I followed the X1 thread and thought maybe Neo can push things forward.

I am not into codes and pretty much an end user, therefore my only contribution is borrowing the X1 to Neo. If it, for some reason, should take longer than anticipated to get things running I am prepared to do without my phone for a longer period. So, no worries that development will stop due to the fact I want my phone back! ;) In the end, a good phone should get the operating system it deserves.

Hope this helps.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] tosomax:
thank you!

Unfortunately i see that the battery situation isn't any better :confused:

I'm sorry for my english
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
When i woke up phone was dead. I dont know how long it worked.

but if its 30% drain in just one hour than you can calculate on your own that full battery will work for 3-4 hours.

p.s. vatoloco could you restore default clean look of android in next release.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jkoljo:
I got similar results, 28% standby drain in 1 hour. Everything was at default settings, so for example the data connection was active.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] radzix27:
How about battery draining on HD2? Maybe on X1 drain faster because we have android on SD card, and phone have to read all data from SD...?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Sequester:
On my HD2 with Android the battery lasts for about 16 hours with quite heavy use. Good news is, however, that in the beginning the developers for the HD2 faced similar problems as it took some time to handle power management
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Reanrean:
hey, dont forget that while you're turning WinMo and switching off Android, it eats about 12% battery)

eg i'm using android now, the battery is about 90%

when i turn it to windows, the level of the battery will be 80-82%
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
incorrect. First of all i restarted phone by pulling out battery and inserting it again so only added loss would be booting in Windows Mobile wich is zero percent (less than 1%) and mobile dont detect it in status.

Try it on your WM. Check battery status, take out battery insert it again and boot...it will be a same value.

So 30% per hour is correct loss.

P.S. read earlier posts. Battery status in this Android is incorrect.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Here is mine shortlist:

-Battery status is incorrect

-Battery lifetime is bad

-SupSetup crashes

-Swap the upper button and endcall button (xperia users use upper button for turing off display and turning off the phone)

-Youtube dont work

-Camera dont work

-Scrolling between screens is laggy.

I really hate black theme when it comes to messeging and notification. Please use default white.

I mentioned all bad things becouse i want to be productive. But im impressed with your work and very thankfull.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Lunie:
Drains the battery in almost 2-3 hours

everything is pretty fast though, good job.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neock:
+1 to the hates of the black theme :D

i really like the original one, including original wallpapers.

BTW, i only display two optional wallpaper in wallpaper gallary. solution?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Lunie:
Seems that emulation is running full speed...win!

Now I can play all of my classic snes games on my x1. :3~~

Just turn automatic frame skip to manual and you got full speed emulations
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pfonck:
I was wondering if everybody who complains about fast battery drain has made sure the GPS is switched off?

Even in WinMo the GPS drains the battery within a few hours so I was wondering...

When you first boot Android the setup wizard asks if you want to enable "localised services". If you select yes it enables the GPS by default.

You can disable the GPS in settings... please check.

Settings > Location & Security settings > Use GPS satellites > Uncheck
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Lunie:
btw if you guys hate the black theme you can change it through Spare Parts.

There are options that let you choose the notification bars and stuff. :P
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] ethanliew92:
do I really need to partition my SD card?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Yes GPS was off, data was off everything was off except for mobile network. You really believe that GPS can drain battery in 3 hours. Not on my XPERIA.

Let me repeat it again. Battery is drained 30% per hour. Phone dies after 3 hours or 4. And none of all above simple theories can explain that. Its not optimized need work on kernel to fix this.

Me and other users have tested it and i believe that we are not so stupid. LOL. I would love it if the problem was so simple.

We know of that but as far as i noticed you cant change the theme. You can only change solid colors for some stuff and its complex to get to color right and its ugly. I think default original Froyo 2.2 theme use texture for notification background.

Default look is great for me. And no modification on spareparts can make it look the same on all parts.

There are also other different details in default Froyo look i think.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
If neopeek doesnt create another installation than YES. You have to partition it.

If you have Live CD of Ubuntu or other GNU/Linux than you can do it very fast.

Not 100% sure. But someone somewhere said that android on ext2 its more stable and faster. Not by much but still. And that partition is used only for android so logicly avoiding copying and deleteing and using that partition for other stuff will make it better. Againg im not 100% sure about that but it makes sense.

Just boot LiveCD enter Ubuntu. Than back up your content on HDD create ext2 partition from part of FAT32. Copy files back on FAT32 and copy haret stuff...and do install then haret.

I did it all very fast and its very secure. No risk.

Updated bug list:

-Battery status is incorrect

-Battery lifetime is bad

-SupSetup crashes

-Swap the upper button and endcall button (xperia users use upper button for turing off display and turning off the phone)

-Youtube dont work

-Camera dont work

-Scrolling between screens is laggy.

-Original Froyo skin pleaseeeee (not a bug but still)

-Headphones dont work (they do on tremers version)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
Just installed it and first impression: :eek: WOOOOOOOOW, that thing is FAST. I think that is by far fastest android build on X1 i've ever seen. All animations are fluid and there is no "wake up fade" delay when waking up device. I'm going to connect it to wifi now and test browser. I'm so excited :D

About partitioning: i think it's good for android. I have no idea about it, but i guess that it's faster to write data to separate partition instead of one file.

I haven't tested battery time yet since i'm currently running it on charger, but i will report soon.

EDIT: tested browser now. It's not as nearly as smooth as opera 10, but it's on good way. Funny, i never noticed how fast opera 10 is until i installed android.

Anyway, scrolling seems to be slow anywhere on this rom (market, settings, applications, browser etc.). I guess it's a setting which i can't find.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] angel spawn dark:
Hello

I'm angel spawn dark , my english is not very good

I do

* Partitioning

* Running install.exe within npkinstall-folder

* Running haret.exe from root

first part fat32 460mo second part ext 471mo

but he said "reboot on 7 second" , and return to winmo

do you know what is it?:confused:
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
350mb ext2 for this android is enough. Some people had problems when they created larger partition like 500mb. Not sure if its going to work but try 350mb ext2.

p.s. Fat32 needs to be first, and ext2 second od sdcard.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Lunie:
looks good on my phone but when brought up the icons are low quality, and i know what you mean by theme.

@denyboy: No need for complaining so much about this since it just came out. :\
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] neopeek:
One good thing about CyanogenMod's outta there is:

They all are themeable. Means there are tons of Themes available anywhere...

@All: I also think for the first port that I did for X1 it's good. Yes, it has a significantly battery draining but we will try to improve that. Thanx anyway to everyone trying this out and reporting bugs.

I also published a thread on mysite and marked it as sticky for everyone having problems with partitioning! It uses a windows utility (freeware)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] angel spawn dark:
thank denyboy

i try 350 for ext2 and 400 for fat32

i test
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Not complaining. Just making wish for final release. And other items are bug list so beeing critical is productive.

That is only notification on top, and its solid color. Also there is background for notification, messages...etc. I just like original.

Im not putting any pressure or demands. Just making wish.

Im very thankfull for his work. Just finding bugs and pointing at right direction as he asked.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] angel spawn dark:
hello

i was try to test super froyo , but it's not fonctionnel with ext2=350mo fat32=400mo

Installe = 1 minute, after reboot to winmo

it is normal?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
first start install.exe after install and reboot you should start then haret.exe

It should work. You listed ext2 as first. It should be second partition. Just checking.

Whole procedure:

1.Partitioning ???MB FAT32 at start and 350MB ext2 at end

2.start install.exe and it will automaticly reboot after some time to WM

3.then start haret.exe and it will enter android after some time

Its simple and should work.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] angel spawn dark:
thank

but i do the totality of the process

but it not fonctionnel

but the install it's not complete "183.60000 Reboot on 7 second " and return to winmo

start haret.exe after same message "8.60000 Reboot on 7 second" and return to winmo

fat=350mo ext2=350mo

:(

I use minitool partition wizard for do the partition

-Bluetooth is not working so good (can find but can't unpair bluetooth gps, was working with tremere build)

-NAND boot :P

you can find many bug fix in tremere thread :)

can't test phone,sms,3g internet (no money :p ), someone else can check this...

the very BIG problem is battery consumption, with 3 hours of standy battery is empty...with win mobile i need 1 week...

for the rest, really smooth, very nice work! wifi, browser, market are working :)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
You mean homescreens? What widgets do you have? I have filled all my homescreens with stock widgets now and scrolling between them is still completely smooth.

+1 sometimes i need to press really hard to make it respond

And probably won't work anytime soon, unfortunately.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pirlano:
try menu-home-menu-home :p
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
?

Menu - menu appears

Home - menu disappears and homescreen overview shows up

Menu - nothing happens

Home - smooth scroll back from overview to first homescreen
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] ziomiki:
-Audio noise and interference in the speaker on the left side!!! The battery drain could happen because the speaker is always open/active?

Thanks for the great job!

EDIT: -Tethering via USB connection don't work.

-Speaker button during a call don't switch audio to speaker phone.

- With 3G connection youtube works fine
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pirlano:
Speaker can't eat all battery, it can be 1% responsable of battery draining, it's a kernel power menagement problem (it's not tickless for example) + some drivers that causes hidden wake-up (1 months ago, dev found a bug in touchscreen for example, that was make draining battery very fast)

on tremere thread and kernel development thread there are some earphone fix, Audio noise fix, usb charging fix, better lcd panel management etc etc
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] loco-:
oops, double post.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] loco-:
I had a strange thing after running install.exe.

It finished and rebooted the phone. Back in windows i tried to start haret, but it didn't work. Also some other programs couldn't start.

There was an error with something like windows doesn't know what to do with the files or so. I did a hardreset and everything works fine now.

Do you have an advantage when having a swap partition?

I created one, beacause i saw it in the video and ubuntu has it and meego has it too and i dont care about 30mb :D

Why does haret crash, when i have overclocked the cpu?

And i just tried to wake up the phone from standby, but screen is staying black.

Also market and google-services-framework are crashing after boot.

EDIT:

Market doesn't work anymore. It instantly crashes when starting

@vatoloco:

Gute Arbeit, gefällt mir sehr ;)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
Then why not ask HD2 guys what they did to improve power management?

@Author how is battery life on diamond?

Also, anyone have problems with Chrome to Phone application? It worked on Tremere's build, but here nothing happens when sending link.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] calvinfoo:
umm hi. firstly i would like to thank you guys for your hard work. but i would like to request that an ext2 partition would not be needed(boot from main sd card like tremere android) as i am unable to create it. as i heard an ubuntu live cd must be made, and i do not have the time to do it, and i fear that i would corrupt my sd card.

thks
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
You cannot corrupt your sd card with partitioning unless you really screw up badly. And there is also tons of freeware programs that can do that in windows without linux.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] keeni:
Installed and got everything working with my spare microSD.

Had some trouble with making a ext2 partition like most of u. This how I did it.

- Install VirtualBox on your windows computer

- Get Gparted LiveCD

- Create a virtual machine with VirtualBox with the Gparted LiveCD iso image mounted as a CD-rom drive

- Next, put your microSD card into your phone and connect via USB cable. Connect with phone as a storage drive

- Open a command prompt from Windows and cd to the folder where u installed virtualbox

- then enter "VBoxManage list usbhost" (without quotes)

- This should show u a list of the usb devices that your computer is currently connected to

- You should see an entry with Manufacturer: HTC

- Copy and paste the information from the command prompt. You need these information to configure your virtual machine.

- In VirtualBox settings, open the USB setting. Add a empty filter. THen edit that entry.

- Enter all the necessary information with those that you copied earlier.

- In virtualBox settings, open Storage, add attachment and point to the gparted live ISO image you got earlier

- Once all done, start your GParted virtual machine with CD-ROM drive as the first boot device (default)

- GParted should fired up.

- You should then see your usb drive as one of the devices

- Partition as recommended and click apply/ok

- Once done, exit your virtualbox.

- Copy the installation package to your fat32 partition. With usb still connected.

- Once done, open file explorer in your phone and tap install.exe in npkinstall folder

- It will boot to linux and do the installation. U will notice that the screen is upside down. Don't worry about it.

- Once installation is done, your phone will reboot back to windows mobile

- Open file explorer in your phone, and select your microSD card. Tap on hernet.exe.

- Sit back and enjoy :P

Sorry for this kinda messy instruction. Got it done in a hurry. Can't wait to test this built :P
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] loco-:
In my opinion this is much more circuitous than just:

- get a GParted image http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

- burn it on cd or put it on usb drive

- reboot from your prepared cd/usb

- GParted should start

:D
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] calvinfoo:
any other partitioning programs availible?i prefer to use an installed program on windows. i hope that the partition can be removed by the program when i do not want it anymore.

thks
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] bullzeye.za:
Tested, GPS works, rom is fast, stable, and marketplace works.

Bugs so far:

Holding the 'phone down' button, to get to the reboot phone button does not work, because it turns the screen off when you release it.

Camera

Battery Life ( and battery driver )

This is actually usable as an everyday ROM, if you have a charger handy :)

Will keep running it until I actually have to swap back to WinMo

Thanks for the effort!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] bullzeye.za:
Arrrh! Getting spammed with "low battery" messages. Back to WinMo now.. Battery at 80%.. That's the only thing stopping me from using this permanently now.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
What do you mean? Procedure is same as previous roms. While holding hangup button, press D-pad down few times until one of the items in shutdown menu highlights.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pirlano:
why that ****? :D

setting->spare parts->end call button->do nothing (bad traslation i think :p )

and you can use end call button to shutdown or restart, and it works very well

and you can use upper right button (not top button) to standy and wake up

everything is working fine here :)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Lunie:
The hardware buttons stop working as battery drain progresses.

To be more specific when im texting with the h/w keyboard it freezes for about a couple of seconds and flickers while typing the last letter i typed repetitively till the keyboard flickers again. It's a stranger glitch and sometimes it causes the hardware keyboards to fail forcing me to reboot to work again.

So far a couple days of testing and im in love
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] lancedehm:
how about battery/phone temperature?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] sstfn:
battery goes very fast :(
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] lancedehm:
And temperature?

With all other releases my phone get very warm (usgin 3G data only) :(

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] sotioa:
Hey,

Great work but I can't get it working. Feels like I'm missing something.

Anyways this is what I've done;(Xperia X1 Wmo 6.1)

-Using Gparted I created 3 partitions: 500 Mb FAt32, partition 350 Mb ext2 and third partition swap-linux 60Mb.

-Downloaded the .zip to my computer from the link.

-Extracted the .zip files to my sd card

-Put my startup.txt in the npkinstall folder.

-Ran the install file within the npkinstall folder.

Then I have not touch the device for half an hour. IT DOES NOT DO ANYTHING.

What I am doing wrong?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] loco-:
You do not have to copy your startup.txt into npkinstall.

Just extract the .zip and copy the files to the root of your fat32 partition. Then run sdcard/npkinstall/install.exe on your phone
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Reanrean:
i created on 4gb sd-card 2 parts-FAT32 and 350mb EXT2

npkinstall.exe works, but haret.exe writes: Failed to mount sd card! and a lot of mumbo jumbo...

whats wrong
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] madadody16:
hi guys,can plz someone update it to another website?coz i can't download it from that one.thnxxxxxxxxxx
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jojooj:
I recommand add ext2 mb about 430mb

maybe work well!!

[pardon my english]
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Reanrean:
thx, but is it necessary to add a Linux SWAP partition?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] rhadrio:
try this link instead. ;)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jojooj:
yes!!!

I think swap memory necessary on htc not X1

just make ext2 and fat32
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] rhadrio:
but X1 is in fact a HTC device. so yes, i think linux swap is necessary. :)

besides, only 60mb of linux swap partition needed in this occasion. come on dude, dont be so cheap :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] denyboy:
Swap is not needed to run SuperFroyos android. Just ext2 partition.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] rhadrio:
whoops, okay i stand corrected :o
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] sotioa:
I download the file from the link that rhadrio provided and it worked!!!!!!!!!!!

I used on my 1Gb sd card 600Mb for fat32 and 400Mb for ext2.

My problem is that wifi does not work and it gives an error.

I was using fatsal before and the wifi worked.

Any suggestions?

Update

I enabled wifi in Wm 6.1 and then run haret, and now it reboots. I get kernel panic and reboots.
