Hey there. Thanks for your comments about this release.

I experienced the same, screen not turning on but after a while it didnt happen no more. The only thing I did was changed my partition from an EXT2 to an EXT3. This might work for you.

Wifi has been working great with everyone except you and another user whose feedback was no longer received. Are you using the kernel I attached? I'm gonna suggest you need lower times for wifi scanning when time permits I'll make and update for you with a lower value so you can test. If you are not using the same kernel you should try that, if you are then we'll try the update and if that doesnt work we can use different drivers but we'll need for you to test. I can test that they are working but the current one stays connected with strong signal so you might be a better reference.

As far as force closes, I've learned through using Android that our ported builds are prone to some natural partition corruption. This is caused by the kernel, more specifically when something crashes inside the kernel, things get messed up in /data. You can tell when your /data gets corrupted some apps asks you to either close /wait, force close every time or no settings are saved. This will get gradually worse until you can no longer boot. If not to prevent, you can extend the time before the corruption by moving your /data to EXT3, as this is a journaled filesystem there is a lot less chance that the unclean unmounts from an EXT2 are going to affect you. There has also been a great effort from the kernel devs at fixing this issues and I think newer kernels would be more likely to prevent this.

One other issue that happens when using your /data on SD is that your phone will freeze if you slide your keyboard out, this happens because it is not fast enough to access data. I don't know if a really fast SD would fix this as mine is just a crappy 4GB SD.

Unfortunately battery life will not be as prolonged as when you use Winmo. I would say in my phone, almost 2 months old battery, moderate data and call usage it can last maybe a day and a half. This has been getting better since the time Android was ported to Android. 12 hours sounds drastic to me as I've spent 10 hours still with a 70% in battery. Check in Spare Parts what is using most of your battery, maybe you have an app that accesses data a lot? When I use my twitter apps, then they drain the battery a lot, they access data about every 5 mins, of course all these settings can be changed.

Hi guys!

I found the cause for the issue for the camera fc. Yesterday I update the radio to 1.65...everything works well...but the signal is not so good.

Today I update the radio to 1.71...everything works better.

The difference between booth is that I have instaled 1.65 radio from my pc,and 1.71 from SD. Maybe this is the source of the issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] n2rjt:
The data corruption has (or had) three causes.

First, a bug in the nand memory code and/or yaffs that led to corruption. I believe l1q1d fixed this.

Second, if the kernel crashes, it doesn't have a chance to flush the files. The fix here would be to find and fix any kernel crashes. My kernel seems very stable now, but the kernel built by l1q1d is missing the latest fix.

Third, even if android shuts down cleanly, it does not unmount /data. I am currently investigating. This is reportedly fixed in CyanogenMod 6, and certainly is build dependent. I don't know the state of Donut builds.

Is my pleasure !

Hum.. Good Hint ! I didnt know thats androids kernel support journaling filesystem.

I will try tonight when I get home. Thz :)

Hum.. I dind know whats happen. Somethimes does not apears any wifi spot (and here when I live thers a lot... even open ;)

But in Home my network is hide (no transmit SSID). Could be this !?

How I sad before.. when I turn off and turn on again Wifi, (somethimes more than a time) they find it and conect.

I using the kernel in beggining of this Thread... 2.6.25-01106-g50cf5f2-dirty

I only change with NBH editor, Overclock (to 520Mhz) and Batt voltage to 1350.

Hum.. I see..

So I have to reformat and reinstall (since I change the partition from ext2 to ext3)

The freeze occurs when it in standby.. and I try to turn it on pressing power button in side of them (as I do every other times). But for some reason, some rare times its crashes..

My microSd is 1Gb (thats became with cellphone).. In others cookies is unusable with sys on NAND and data in SD extpartition.. (very very slowly).. but in this is very fast .. as I sad !

a day and a half would be fine to me.. I would pay happy this price to run Android instead winmo.

But less than a day is pretty anoing ! :)

I turn off 3G and wif.. and autosync... and reduces bright of display.

In Spare, and in INFO (inside SETUP) I didn see anything anormal (apps or sistem using batt in background).

There are some additional config in kernel or setup, like APM or ACPI ?

TIA

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
I see, didn't know it was build dependant. I'll try to find more info as well. I can't use your kernel due to my inability to flash but I am pretty sure all other users here would benefit a lot from that. All I can do is keep a backup handy. Thanks man! Appreciate the help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Not any other settings that I can advice. To be honest my setup is very simple. All defaults to what this build has except I turn off feedback to google for my location, everything else is left turned on, gps, auto sync, I also use bluetooth for around an hour or so while driving and maps (OsmAnd).

The only difference I can tell (since you even use the same kernel) is that you overclocked, this should use more current from yur battery but I don't think it is as much, unless the processor is always doing something at this speed. Could be worth to try with stock speed and see how much it affects. To be honest I don't think 50 mhz or even 100 would make a dramatic change so I always use the normal speed of the processor. Also I wouldn't overclock past 450. I am just a little afraid of the stability of the processor, remember that overclocking is a matter of speed vs heat, current, and stability.

Try those hints, and if it doesn't work let me know and we'll try to figure out something else, we've got a lot of good people helping so even if I can't figure it out I am sure somebody else will :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Hey man!

Flashing from SD or PC shouldnt make a different. Different radios will give you better or worse performance depending on your location. Fortunately (or unfortunately) for me almost all radios perform the same, just little variations in voice quality.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Hey Bro!

I have reinstalled a stock rom (WinMo), to clean data on phone.

Reinstall radio (1.71) and Spl (3.56). Now everything sounds good!

I made a backup to be sure that i will not have issues.

Thanks for support.

Now i'll work in my build.

Are do you working on compcahe to the release 4?

I'm waiting for test anything, to contribute more.

;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Good, I am glad. Yeah I am trying to work on it unfortunately as this is still my everyday phone I have had to be connected to the internet using it (my modem at home is messed up) and also a lot of texts and calls from people so I've had to wait for that. I'll try what Millence said before and hopefully we'll get compcache working.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
It's very nice!!

We'll waiting for the next release my friend! :D

Today i'm working on 2 builds (Donut and Froyo), and will release this as soon as possible. ;)

Thanks for all!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Good news / bad news. Everything is alright

Hello there!

Bad news is none of the approaches advised worked on their own. Good news is compcache is up and running anyways! :) Bad news is compcache does in fact promote data corruption, it's all good though as it was expected. Good news is I created a few background services and modified the original script to change memory settings, start, stop, enable, and completely disable compcache. Bad news is I have no idea about what else to put in this release as I see RLS03 as an "almost there" release.

I will be including a modified script and new background service to lock on 2G by default (which will be able to change) and when that's done RLS04 will be ready for download. Just wanted to give you all a little update. Thanks everyone for your support!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] elander:
Great News, THANKS A LOT!!

Greeeeat news!!! I knew you could do it, I'm sorry not to have commented on this before, but I've been kind of busy and I am not using my kaiser that much as I feel I'll have to buy another battery to see if that solves the battery issues, anyways I am currently running (or trying to) froyo by clemsy (a port from t-mobile to g1 to kaiser) and another version of the cyanogenmod 6 build because I've read they both are as fast as donut (quite impressive speed, though your build is still the fastest OS to have ever honor my old kaiser's nand, lol) after i get the new battery i'll run some test and then I'll flash this one again to see if this time battery lets me stay on ONE BUILD once and for all. thanks alot!!!

PS: Oh, by the way I REALLY appreciate the fact that you mention me @ first post I read it like 2 days ago or something but didn't have the time to reply, it's the first time someone has mentioned my (user)name on a first post so I feel like I'm going places,lol, its an honor, thanks pal.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] marcelotorres:
Hi guys!

@ Warbyte, i'm very happy to see that you release the build 4!

Compcache nowww!! Sounds great, i'm downloading this!

I'll post my point of view!

Nice work bro!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
That's completely okay. I am busy myself most of the time but I suddenly had a period of idle time both at work and at home so I've spent some more time here on XDA. I am sorry about your battery issues. Same happened to me, 2+ y/o battery, could barely go for 5 mins in a call. Once you get your new battery it's gonna be like a breath of life for the poor Kaiser, I could swear it was running twice as fast lol Thanks for your kind comments and honestly mentioning you there is the least I could do for someone who's been here since post #2 :) Appreciate it lots.

Hey man! thanks! I'm glad all this seems to be working okay. Compcache time! careful though, as posted on the release notes there is (expected) data corruption, use backups :) How's your release coming along?

@all: The compcache data corruption seems to be present when restarting. I've been running compcache with 24 MB (default) for a couple of days without any restart and there is no problem at all. No freezes, no weird behavior. I cannot tell for the life of me any difference in performance, except a little better multitasking, but it feels great to say "Well I am using compressed caching to optimize my multitasking experience in Android" lol hope you all have more fun rather than frustration using with this :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Alrighty friend, please don't think I forgot about you :) I got you a couple updates with the scan time changed to see if this helps you a little. Just in case it makes no difference at all I included "androidupdate original.tar" which is the default setting. The other file "androidupdate test.tar" sets your scan times from (default) 45 seconds to 15 seconds. I think this should give you a more stable signal at the expense of a little more battery usage. If this doesn't work I will try looking for a different driver that works better for you which might take a little more time because I have no way to test it. None other user has reported this and so can't be reproduced (yet).

Please let us know how it went.

bt audio

bt audio still not working...tried different 25 kernels
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
I'm sorry about that. I really have no idea what the issue might be as this hs worked for everybody and is the official fix that most Donut builds use to enable bluetooth. All that comes to mind is trying different radios, that could make a difference. Are you able to connect at all? Might it be some faulty hardware?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] illegal2008:
hardware ok,on Froyo BT audio works fine.on Donut headset is paired,but music plays with 5-10 secs gaps
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Yeah, I read somewhere a long time ago that bluetooth audio does not work on Donut builds. Phone does. Fortunately it works for me all the time. For now try the radios, as I have no idea what would be the real cause for those gaps. I'll try to research more about it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I thought warm donut had working Bluetooth just no stereo Bluetooth
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Now that I remember I think you are completely right about it. It's been such a long time since I read that. My bluetooth works both phone and audio just fine. I would imagine it is only mono though I just can't figure out what would be causing him to have those gaps while listening to music. I also recall seeing "Connected to phone and audio" in Warm Donut, so it must be working as well.

@ illegal2008, have you had music working fine in any other Donut build or have you always had the gaps in all Donut builds?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] illegal2008:
Yes,Myn's Donut RLS 5 with kaisimg-panel2-320-tilt-eclair-02-07-10.nbh working fine for me
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Alrighty, I can't promise anything yet but I am gonna take a look at Warm Donut maybe I can figure out what the differences are. Could be several things :) appreciate the feedback.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
I read an idea from another user about having an XDA store, for android apps and exclusively for XDA. I liked it, and following a suggestion about Aptoide I configured my website (yeah, I have one, and it's been inactive and with the same hosting index for a very long time) to host my own repository including the apps that I have put in the build.

Screenshots here where I commented those guys what I did:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8779244&postcount=39

I've been thinking about replacing our included /data folder in favor of preconfigured apktor for this so that if anyone is not really interested at all, we can just have our default Android build without any apps and we have a smaller subset of apps that are the center of our interest.

Any thoughts? should we do this? should we discard this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] elander:
So you mean this would be like the android market, but just with all the apps xda host or something like that? if that's so then it is an EXCELLENT idea I've been thinking about suggesting something similiar but then I told myself "hey, if it hasn't been done it is because it has no use, xda is full of genius people so they have given the matter a thought or two and didn't like the idea" but well that's just me and my pessimist alter ego lol, if you need help chasing down apps in the forums I might be helpful, I (almost) live here anyway, lol, (damn I should stop posting things like this at work).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
You almost live here? oh god that made laugh :D that is great.

Well this guy in that thread had that idea, I actually never thought about it. I had just thought of bloated updates with most popular packages but then I read about aptoide decided to experiment with it.

It is great to say the least, I like it and the best thing is that since I own the hosting we can add XDA's apps (if authors agree I guess), or any other app that is not on Market, or we could have our very own list of favorite apps. The only work here would be chasing them, which I am gonna leave up to you since you volunteered, and keeping them updated.

I already have a package with RLS04 with no /data except the launcher and the new market thingie but before I uploaded it I tested it (as I should always do with everything) and realized that because of a mysterious setting in my hosting account that I yet need to figure out, everything is ready, except when you install it says it can't connect. I spent all night trying to figure it out but I am gonna go ahead and rest for a few minutes before I go to work. I'm also moving my releases to the new hosting, RLS04 is already there. They are on an ftp now so people with slow connections have a more reliable way to get them.

As soon as I get that connecting issue solved we can start uploading stuff :)

Oh, before I forget, always talk about your ideas. At least me, I'll be all ears. I am dumb when it comes to thinking of new stuff to do. I also have not forgotten about the resizing, it is still an item on post #1.

Thanks man, I appreciate the support.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Finally got our own repo working :) Elander, if you can start chasing down your preferred apps, would be amazing :D

@All: for anyone who is interested I uploaded another RLS04 as AE (Apktor Edition). This is the same but there is no additional app but Helix and Apktor already set up for the repo, just hit menu, update, and install whatever you need. I would expect the apps list to grow in the future with everybody's contributions.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
Great job man, even with its own XDA app market? def I'm giving it a shot! (and many others too, I guess...)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
since you've helped me out alot warbyte and i think i have fat free as slimmed as i want to i was looking for something new i haven't done.

you might be wondering what that something was, the answer is port a theme to donut

i can now check that off my list

presenting the fat free blue donut theme (screenies are in my fat free thread but you already knew that)

i did this really quick but it looks to be complete, try it out man and enjoy it
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Thanks for the comments on this, always appreciated. It is not an official implementation for XDA, this guy had an idea about having a Market with XDA's apps and someone else suggested a repository.

Since I included a set of selected apps in all four builds I went ahead and got the repo setup for them so the installation is optional to the user.

RLS04 AE Edition has APKtor already pointing to my repo so you just need to refresh it to reflect contents. Any other release does not have APKtor but you can install it and add my repo, will work just the same. It only has the same set of apps that the other builds include, over time it will grow as users suggest more apps.

Hope you have a good time with whatever release you pick and if you need any help don't hesitate to drop a line here or PM me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
Dang it! that's a great surprise to receive this :D thanks man! that made my day. I'm definitely giving this a try right now :) by the way, you seem to have a pretty interesting list of things to do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
haha gotta break up my time playing fallout: new vegas some how, and the lady is at her parents for the night
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
lol that's great, I used to play video games until my hands hurt and could move them no more. a single man for the night huh? that would explain playing for a long time. It would be interesting for girls to have that love for video games, oh and for mobile devices too and "tinkering" (as my lady calls it) with every gadget we can find. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
haha every time im working on my phone she just walks in and calls me a nerd, haha and i am noticing a strange pattern that everything i own is hacked in some way or another
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] yatzee:
i like this rom but the bluetooth is not working and there is no HTC_IME keypad..

can someone help me how can i put a keypad HTC_IME in my kaiser?

this rom fits to my phone it was so fast it did not give me lag i just need the bluetooh and the HTC_ime keypad
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
yes there is a phone keypad, change the input method to HTC_IME MOD then go to settings (long hold on the voice search key) the first option should say keyboard layout change that to phone keypad
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
This is, I believe, a very common pattern at XDA :) being called "nerd" with a tone in the voice that says "and there you are again, dont you get tired from it".

Yeah man, everything that I own is not stock, dvd players, mice, speakers, everything is at least firmware flashed with a custom thing. Even my bike had custom parts, my car enjoys a CAI and some other things I did myself. I guess the world needs people who do this kind of thing lol

Edit1: Even my twitter pic... it's photoshoped...

Edit2: Restarting Android
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
what kind of car do you drive man?

and i can verify it should work as im staring at it on my vogue right now ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] yatzee:
i think it needs a internet conection i dont have a wifi signal here any sugestion to make it work? i can't see the htc mode when the input method appear there is only android keyboard
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
your sure your using this build?

im looking at it right now?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] WarByte:
You'll be amazed (not really) lol corolla 1989, which I got for some sort of tuning project but got stalled (as most things in life) due to lack of money. I had an accident with a reckless taxi driver which costed me some money in repairs (right after I got out the junk yard), then I got a leak on my radiator and I blew up my heads gasket. I spent some money in repairs that I hadn't planned and after waiting for the next pay check I got my head set on some other things and it's been stalled since then.

Ohhhhh... what a sexy look my Kaiser has now! You know, at one point I ported the Dark Eclair theme over to a very primitive version of this builds, got a little frustrated with the dark fonts not turning white. This is definitely a keeper on my phone :) I'll link from post #1 (with appropiate credits) if you don't mind.

Edit: I also like the fact that it is using the same battery meter :) I can't leave that one behind for some reason, got used to it too much I guess.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
please do man im glad you like it luckily myn did alot of the white text work on this theme for me, for not so super froyo i had to use the colorchange.jar which was a big pain. now that i know what files control it porting that was easy.

i drive a 2005 VW GTI for what its worth haha i modified the software on that too
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
haha yea fat free has a 1% indicator and without totally ripping apart the framwork res i just chose to leave the battery indicator you had, and if i wouldnt have been able to do that the battery indicator you use is the same one from Not So super so you would have ended up with that
