Cell based location don't work for DONUT builds. K_K corrected and re-compiled libhtcgeneric-ril.so for ECLAIR and FROYO but libhtcgeneric-ril.so for DONUT builds still does not work. Allso this library is responsible for switching from 2G to 3G data and vice versa.

So for Cell based location and 2G 3G data switching we need new, corrected and re-compiled, libhtcgeneric-ril.so for DONUT builds.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
That is interesting. I had no idea about that. Do you by any chance know if this hasn't been corrected due to lack of interest or because no one has been able to fix it? Sounds like a pretty big challenge.

So this means we can't connect to 2G networks? I haven't been able to set my settings to connect only to 2G, but I have seen my phone using Edge or 3G without any problem. Or at least that is what I can see on my phone. Thanks for the info! :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Someone in the forums confirmed a recompiled lib working with 2G/ 3G and cell based location. I can confirm 2G and 3G are working with this and it will be included in the next release. All I am missing is testing cell based location. We'll be happy if it works :)

Edit: Gentlemen. I am happy to report cell based location working, also fast switching between 2G / 3G. Ability to set: use only 2G network. Signal strength kept strong and constant. This will be included in the next release.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] HTCAngah:
Can't wait for the next release this is almost perfecto!!!:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
I know man, I am also glad to have more good news for you:

Working SIM lock!

Hope this makes it a little closer to perfect :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] HTCAngah:
HEHEHEHEHEH......Yes....!!!!!!

This the new era of the Androids RULES!!!!!:D

Keep the great work man...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] mcongosto:
disappointed

the dispay does not fit in the screen and then its impossible to input the sim pin, its always incorrect.

None ofthis happens whit any other rom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Millence:
Are you using kallt_kaffe libhtcgeneric-ril.so? I try that with Myn's Warm Donut and it did not work.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Hey there :) I honestly do not have any idea of that. Previous to this recompiled lib discussion I had never ever used a lock on my SIM.

If you read post # 1, you'll notice those files are NOT pushed in the original package (RLS1 as we all have come to know it). So 2G /3G does not switch and you cannot select use only 2G networks. I haven't attempted to use a SIM lock with RLS1 as to my understanding had never worked.

My attempt to a RLS2, as of yesterday, works with 2G / 3G, cell based location, and SIM lock. I have been using it, rebooting and unlocking my SIM. The pad does fit on the screen and works great at 320 x 428 @ 143 DPI, which is what I considered optimum, and the only kernel I am stuck with anyways. Since the QVGA resizing is a work in progress it would be interesting how the pad is affected by that resolution, but that would be another challenge to embrace as we approach that resizing task. Thanks for your feedback.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Yes, I am using kallt_kaffe's third attempt I believe. I researched a lot about recompiling that myself and found the repository with the sources, but since someone else had done it and shares the same branch then it "should" work and decided to go that way. I don't know how much different my repacked build (RLS2) is from Warm Donut since as of now I am using some resources from DRD36. It works like a charm though. Only issues I have had, if there is a big drop where I lose service for too long (I get crappy service at the office) then the SIM would sometimes lock again. I can live with it. Later on maybe with more time I can get my hands on the code and change it (hopefully to improve it) a little more.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] upnxrawk:
So when do we get a look at RLS 02??? I like this Donut build very much so far for my Kaiser. The only issue I have is that the battery level fix kernel doesn't allow Wi-Fi to start on Donut builds, so I am forced to use an older kernel. If there is any fix for this or if anybody can suggest how to fix this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
To be honest I consider RLS 2 ready to go, I am just giving it a one week test on my phone just to make sure nothing too disastrous happens :) though it's been two days and it's perfectly fine, not a single force close and I havent been forced to soft reset. I've been constantly rebooting it (as I stated on post # 1 I abuse rebooting) to check the SIM lock. Everything looks good.

Elander patched his kernel to include his own fix, there is a link for the info of what he did in post #1 under known issues, battery levels. Hope that helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] elander:
First, I would like to "correct" your post warbyte, I didn´t actually patched anything (I couldn´t even code a "hello world" in visual foxpro,lol) its n2rjt work that has helped us a lot with the battery level issue I just wanted people to know that your build works with his kernel modifications, so all credits go to n2rjt, (I know you meant it right, is just that I feel n2rjt has worked his brains out with the kernel mod so I felt that somebody might actually think i´m the mastermind behind it,lol and that, to me, would be stealing.)

in second place, regarding upnxrawk post about how wifi doesn´t work it is true but is something easy to solve, jus go over http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782269&page=11 (thats battery kernel mod by n2rjt, :-) ) and download the modules for the kernel you are using (2.6.32 I asume) after you download it jus unzip or unrar and you´ll get a androidupdate.tar, then you´ll just have to install it and wifi will be functional again. thanks.

P.S: Warbyte I´ll be checking this thread 5 times per second in order to be the first one to try rls2,lol. Keep up such a great job. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
That's perfectly fine :) credits to whoever has worked to make all this possible. I am always big on giving credits to people, it's just a little hard to keep up with so many names popping up lol

As of right now, link is up! :D Please let me know what you think.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] upnxrawk:
I think my Wi-Fi problem was due to editing the kernel with NBH Editor. I switched the version from Donut to Eclair and it seems to work fine now. So if anybody wants to try just switching the version to Eclair instead of Froyo or Donut, it just might work for them too. Hope that little bit of info is useful to anybody. And WarByte...if you ever need anybody to test your new builds or anything let me know, I'll be more than glad to help the other frustrated Kaiser users who have been thought to be left behind.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Millence:
libhtcgeneric-ril.so from VaniljEclair_RLS11 work for Warm Dont too! That's great!

BTW if you need/whant help in resizing apps to QVGA send me PM. I have experience in that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] elander:
Wow, for how long has rls2 been up? I didn´t see the link, guess I´ll have to go to a doctor to get my eyes checked,lol, anyways I jus downloaded it and will try it and post back my "first impression thoughts" . thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] upnxrawk:
Thanks for posting RLS02 so quickly...I will definitely try it out asap and let you know the results of my testing. Thanks again for helping out us Kaiser owners.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
@upnxrawk You're welcome, and thanks for your feedback. I sure appreciate your help. I am sure we're all going to wish to do something else to be put in another build so there's gonna be plenty to test :) It's all about helping others, this builds on all that knowledge that previous people have done since Android on Kaiser was only a dream.

@Millence I am glad it worked as well! :) and I also appreciate that. I will PM you as some users would really like to have a resized version to use with QVGA.

@elander Hasn't been out for too long :) hope everything works as I expect it

@All Please be aware I can't test under a pure QVGA so there might be some glitches. Really appreciate your support and feedback.

Testing...

Hi Warbyte!

I'm trying your Android's Distro, and it seem to be very fast, but i have some FC's...

Camera doesn't work...always FC

The font are too small, using the panel that are in the zip (this issue i solve using another panel on dzo's site), but using the last panel (released in 09.09.2010), wifi doesn't work, camera doesn't work too.

Using the panel in the zip, wifi and camera work very well ( curious, but is the first time that a see a decent drivers for camera in Android distro's...congratulations!!!)

My phone is AT&T Tilt bought in USA.

I'm using Spl: 3.34.0000 and radio: 1.71.01.09.

Another issue, the screen have some "strange brilliant points"

What i can do to solve this problem?

And what version of panel are you using?

Solved, using another panel version.

Testing again...

Congratulations WarByte!

I'll be keep in touch for feedback.

I'm happy for using Android again in my kaiser!!!

noobie question:

How to get a visual like manila 2d in android with flipping clocks and weather??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
The only way to go there is through widgets. A matter of finding the one that works for you.

Fancy Widget, taken down. You might find something like that on Market

http://www.anddoes.com/category/fancy-widget/

Digital Clock, close to what you want

http://www.freewarelovers.com/android/app/digital-clock-widget

There are also some free weather widgets on Market. I remember seen some, just not a fan of them. Hope that helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Maybe a good information...

Once a time reading in google i found a information ( don't remember where), to enter in the setup menu in any android version where is possible to enable/disable data connection, enable/disable radio.

Everybody know's that using data connection every time, drain more battery.

Since i found this information, i'm using it.

In the dial pad, type this: *#*#4636#*#* (the equivalent *#*#INFO#*#*)

To disable data connection type menu, click in more then click in disable data connection.

Hope this info help many users, like help me everytime i need.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Trust me, every little piece of information, tip, and / or advice is always welcome. It will eventually help someone. I will drag that on to the first post.

This has some really nice info, at least I can confirm the updated lib fixed the 2G / 3G switching. I performed a clean reinstall over my cumulative fixes to see how it would all work together. I've had data turned on all day using 2G, so it's locked on Edge and I've been checking my email periodically, not a single phone call and I have 75% battery (dmesg) after aproximately 10 hours. This is a huge improvement over using 3G (as most would already know).

Thanks!

i'm downloading a sdk that promisse to connect android with pc, named Usb drivers for windows...

hope this work...

i have instaled dual mount app, but doesn't connect with winxp
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Doesn't connect my sd to pc usging this app. This only install support for android, but it don't show my phone on pc, just show's usb mass storage unit, but it always unavalaible to explore or send somethig to it.

What i can do?

Dual mount app seems don't work properly....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Solved using this tip:

The only way I'm aware of that currently works is to use a widget from the Android Market called "Dual-Mount SD". It is NOT a free app, but it works. Just install the app, add the widget to your home screen, and click on the widget. You'll see a message that says "SD Split Activated", and then when you plug into your PC you can access the SD card as a disk drive.

Thanks: golfnz34me
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Exactly the same app I use, glad you found this already and worked for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Millence:
Use modem.apk fom Myns Warm Donut or VaniljEclair to switch data on and off. ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Data Connection

I found a good aplication called GT-Widget Data that enable/disable data too.

Great app, and it's free. ;)

This is the best android version that i have used, since i decided to replace WM for (N)Android...

Thanks for all WarByte!!! God bless you!!!

I hope that i could contribute more, and more whenever possible.

Nice and amazing rom!!!

Thanks again.

Somes FC's for today...

I had some fc's:

-> android.process.acore (when try to enter in call log)

-> com.process.phone (when try to digita any phone number to call)

I have reinstalled system, tried to master reset, and don't know more what i can do.

I will reinstall wm 6.1 (shipped rom), and try to reinstall nandroid again.

Don't know if this will take effect, but i'll try.

Some idea for what i can do?

* Remember: I'm using release v2
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Hey there, I've been experimenting a little and I have noticed that between reinstallations sometimes some things go wrong, for example:

First reinstall: Immediate force closing acore and gapps. Phone couldnt be used.

Second reinstall: Works fine, as long as phone is not rebooted.

Third reinstall: Works fine.

Now assuming you don't reflash your kernel (which helps a lot) what I do is:

Hold down both soft buttons, soft reset, when the screen for the hard reset comes on, I do it, let phone run again, this might cause:

Force closing to stop

No touch screen at all

Phone app no longer works

I've been getting this ones randomly, I continually restart doing it and seems to help, however RLS 01 seems to stand by far a higher number of soft resets without messing something up.

I've used RLS 02 up to three days and no problems at all as long as I dont restart the phone. I'm investigating what the cause of this might be.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Right!

If this happens again,i will do this, man ;)

Some questions:

What panel version, are you using? Can you send the link?

Why the panel that are in the RLS 2 have the fonts too small?

Thanks for your support my hood!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
I'm using 320x428 in lastest dzo eclair kernel (edited for Donut) the build is set to 143 dpi. Should be the same as RLS 01. I'm making some changes to the package. I've survived 4 restarts, if it stays that way ill upload. And you're welcome, appreciate the feedback. Thought it was only me experiencing those issues.

waiting for release

Hi man.

I am using rls2 yet. Yesterday. have tested the rls 16.2 from. Froyo,and have a lot of fc's...i think that Froyo isn't was make for kaiser.

I comed back to your Donut Repack...and

Now I'm waiting for your next release.

Thanks for your support hood.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Hey there. You might think I am crazy but I honestly liked Froyo a lot more than Eclair and Donut. In fact if I could flash I would be using Super Froyo (link in post #1). It is faster because the Dalvik has a lot more optimizations into it. I sort of benchmarked it against Dzo's odexed. What I didn't like about it was the boot time and some times (like Warm Donut) would reset itself and lose your settings. Second time I flashed Super Froyo was when I messed up my spl and was stuck with a kernel for Donut, hence my decision to try to improve it a little.

If you try Super Froyo make sure you install, skip and next in the wizard, give it 15 mins and restart. In that version I am absolutely sure you have to wait in order to not get FC's. In these repacks that I am publishing I honestly don't see a reason to wait but I always do it. What I'd call RLS 03 hasn't given me any problems today.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
if he uses dzo's 10/1 odex'd build it will boot faster because of the way odexing works
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Yeah :) didn't mean to sound like comparing the boot time of those two, only normal use. Even with other deodexed my thoughts were the same, the only times I could use Super Froyo I can tell you it felt like when you install Donut and waited for the first time looking at the logo. Loved that build anyways.

--
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i would odex my rls16 build but my /system is too large and the adb driver is being a pain
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Oh. Now I understand :) I was talking about Dzo's Donut (unfair I know) not Fresh Froyo. Just checked your thread, it looks great! If I could flash my kernel I would give it a try or I mighy as well try it anyways when I need to reinstall, Super Froyo with my old kernel did not complain except bluetooh not starting at all. I also prefer things deodexed, just my opinion :) adb has never worked for me so I prefer the terminal emulator. I even zipalign things here inside my phone.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Hi there!

I was working for this weekend and don't have much time to post.

I'm still using your rsl 2, and anxious to see the rls 3.

This is the first time that i'm using android for much time, and i am like so much!

I'm think to start to "cook" too.

What type of process to "cook" are you using? Can you send me a link or something like this?

Thank you so much, for your patience and support.

Have a nice week!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
my cooking technique is a 5 part system,

part one:a good stable base ROM in this case fresh froyo as a starting point

part two: 7zip is pretty much my best friend when it comes to these things

part three: lots of forum searching, asking questions, and using general knowledge that i have learned from being on here so long (things like why live wallpapers aren't a good idea on our phones)

Part four: time to devote to it, I have put more time than i would like to admit into my build getting things to work just right, and their really is more to it than just tossing a few .apk's into a pot and installing then booting

part five: last but not least the most important part, Sticking with it. I cant tell you how many times I have been frustrated with my build, on day one when i rolled it out i had a nasty call hang issue that took alot of parts three and four to fix, then after that was fixed i found some graphical hiccups that i had to fix that took till this morning for me to solve. There were plenty of times i just wanted to walk away and plenty of times and times when finding a solution to a problem was a complete pain, but i like to think i have given it a good effort so far

sorry if that was lengthy and not as informative as you were looking for, but what i can say is we are a community probably one of the better ones on this forum, so if you need help with things just PM me. If Incubus26jc wouldn't have helped me out and given me advice i can say i surely wouldn't be where i am at now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
That's fine man, dont worry about it. We all have o do something else besides the forum :) I've got a RLS 03 (candidate) for you. I'm gonna have it up tomorrow so you can try it, mess with it and hopefully if it is stable enough I will move it to post #1 for everyone to grab it as the official release. As a token of my appreciation for your testing and patience I was looking at Super Froyo and noticed they where using a weather widget that kinda looked like HTC's home. I included the widget for you, hope it is close to what you were looking for. When you add it, it will close / wait. Click on wait, then add it again to have it setup your city and all that. Then it's good to go, I already tested it.

Here's a screenshot, wallpaper is not this one but the Android default. You can always change it.

As for cooking. I dont really call it that because it's not the same as with winmo. Actually the whole heart is in the kernel and there is a lot of bright people developing on that and you can just grab it. With Android is like having your system file in the .tar and moving it to your phone, it's already done so you're just making a compressed (7zip) package. However if you wish to go a little deeper into customization you might wanna understand some concepts first like what classes are, odexing, zipaligning, libraries, and some fundamental concepts from programming like "dependencies".

Depending on how much of a programmer you are you might wanna compile from source but since most apps are already stable and the libraries already modified I dont see the need of messing with code and compiling. I was thinking of doing it with one library but someone had already made those changes so no need to. Pick an already stable version (I prefer stock) then try to understand the file structure, see where apps are stored, sounds, resources, what might call what. Go from there making little changes.

There isn't a direct link, there is plenty of info here on xda and if you can't find something you can always pm me with questions, I'll try to help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
haha wow i wasnt expecting our answers to be that similar and that close together
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Hi thoughtlesskyle!

I always read everything that about your phone, i like to keep me informated.

Thanks for your support, man i really appreciate it! :D

Yesterday i have installed your rom on my kaiser, but have a lot of FC.

Maybe because the *.nbh file.

But, i like froyo so much too.

I'm using Donut Repack of WarByte, that are amazing, and realy realy fast and stable (Thanks WarByte)

Is very nice to know that are people like you and warbyte, that not abandoned the Kaiser, yet...but thanks so much for your interest.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Sorry, didnt mean to post after your advices. I have been noticing we kind of think of the same things at the same time. I also thought about the odexing thing on boot, we repacked something and believe or not I completely messed up my installation last week trying the famous compcache :) is there some sort of official guide for people to make some customizations to their packages? Are you interested on making one in which we can all contribute and hopefully find a source of info for all this little things we all want to do? If we can find the time (I assume we are both busy during the week) I am sure a lot of curious people would benefit and learn from it.
