[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
so here is why it happens, basicly what would happen is in WinMo when the phone would turn off and boot into a charge loop and it would charge and shut off when finished our kernel doesnt have this built into it so it just boots like normal when power is applied
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
yup... happens to all of us, its not a big deal... there are a lot of worse problems devs are trying to solve... maybe whn they reach a point where the kernel is more stable they should pay attention to the details like this (and the camera driver, camcoder... etc)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Well that answers my question... Yah knew it was something inside the kernel, just didn't know if it was a bug, or something that wasn't implemented yet. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] a.s.j:
Of course this is low priority task :) but I just wanted to have that confirmed to know, that my oldie holdie is not broken or what :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Quick question:

How old is your kaiser and/or battery ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] a.s.j:
About 5 years with original battery
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] n2rjt:
It used to be that if Linux NBH was flashed, the phone wouldn't charge at all when off. Then somebody (dzo I believe) added code to the kernel so that the phone turns on when it is plugged in, so that it will charge. That used to work, with a full complete boot. Now, as you say, the phone tries to wake up but doesn't really make it. Maybe we should look into that, we should be able to fix that, maybe by looking carefully at the git logs for the past six months or so.

There are bigger problems, like data reliability, but if somebody wants a problem in the kernel that they can study and perhaps fix, this is a good one to start with.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] l1q1d:
To correctly charge the battery system need to be on so i can do this:

start kernel

in initrd:

if it found the power connected then the phone wait for power button (trying the sleep mode)

else

start the system

i need some testing to do it.

Windows do quite the same thing.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmRipper:
Hello,

I love the HD2's 4.2inc big screen, but sometimes it may really annoying to use it with just one hand. For example while walking or in bus etc.

I'm also bored to wait for fully-compatible/stable Android with NAND.

Don't say me it's already stable. There are lots of tiny problems. Battery problems* , g-sensor problems, robo-voice etc.

*Battery consumptions is really high. From 7am to 7pm, 0% battery left... But there isn't any problem with WM. It can stay 2 days without charging.

SO I'M GOING TO EXCHANGE MY HD2 WITH HTC DESIRE OR SAMSUNG GALAXY S.

The haunting problem with Galaxy S is, custom roms. Will I be able to install CyanogenMod or stock NexusOne rom?

Because default rom is really crap. Unlocking the lock screen is awful.

Galaxy S is also look like an iPhone >_> It's really annoying.

But Galaxy S's Hummingbird have 3x GPU power of Snapdragon. Which is really cool, live wallpapers are super-smooth etc..

The problem with Desire is, battery consumption again =)

Is it better than HD2 with Android ? Any comments ?

Or should I buy Nexus One ? Which one's battery is better? Nexus or Desire?

OR should I wait for the Google Nexus S ? Damn when will it be released ? :/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
that would be the one with the built in hard copy of its stock rom that auto flashes itself back to stock every soft reset?

I have no doubt the mods here will solve that issue, but for me i wouldn't touch a phone that did that until well after it had been bypassed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daum Ex:
Sorry to burst your bubble, but i don't have any of those Android problems you mentioned. No robotic voice, no G-sensor problems whatsoever, and battery life is great (24h at least).

I'm using mDeejay Froyo HD v4.1...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmRipper:
I've tried every single Android Builds, WM Builds and Radios.

Robo voice happens with Cyanogenmod builds mostly (for ex. this one, robovoice fix is the first in faq) and you have to have right Android-WM-Radio combination.

G-Sensor problem is NOT exactly fixed. The last released g-sensor fix is actually a workaround. You can check the nand-development progress to see what's to be fixed. G-Sensor is one of them.

Battery life is not that great.

Galaxy S looks nice choice for now.

Screen size, screen quality, multi-touch quality, battery life, gpu performance etc...

Only negative point is its design just like an iPhone.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daum Ex:
Well, i don't really care if it's a workaround or not, as long as it works 100%, and i didn't get robotic voice with any rom for a couple of months already.

You can try my combo and see if it works for you, while you are searching for a new phone...

I'm using Chucky's GTX Lite WM rom, and that Mdeejay's i previously mentioned...

I don't like Galaxy S one bit, mostly because the build quality is super cheap, all plasticky, and it doesn't have any flash at all, LED or otherwise...

Actually I wouldn't get either one - if I was going to trade for an Android phone it would be the MyTouch 4G. It's a little smaller than the HD2, runs on 4G, and has a front facing camera.

i would go for a galaxy tab.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodbel:
Hello,

I am actually considering buying a HD2 and use android on it. Sorry to hear that you didn't have a pleasant exerience with it.

The issues you mentioned -

Battery prob- I understand all smartphone have high battery consumption issue. Unless it's horribly bad(HD2 with android users are reporting that they can get one full days use)

G sensor prob - What will I be missing if the G sensor is not working?

Galaxy S seems to be as buggy as HD2(!) and the dual core phones scheduled to be released next year will probably be buggy as well (first gen of dual core proc)

Just my 2 cents, and hope this discussion will help me make my decision to get a HD2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zarathustrax:
You can get a full day if you rarely use the hd2. Android ports almost always eats battery power quicker than a native android phone will. If you're just looking to run android, I would get a native android phone, especially now since there are plenty of android phone with 4.3in screens out, which used to be the reason people got hd2s just to run android. A native android phone can be made to run android much better... you may have to do some tweaks to fix any issues, but you would have to do much more tweaking on the hd2 to get android running decently anyways.

Now if you want to run winmo also, then the hd2 is the phone to get. But for just android, get an android phone.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmRipper:
OK. I will absolutely wait for Nexus S!

Google officially introduced it http://www.google.com/nexus/#!/tech-specs

It's just awesome! I can't find words to say.

1GHz Cortex A8 (yeah perfect gpu power!)

4.0" screen.

Contour Display with curved glass screen

Anti-fingerprint display coating

Three-axis gyroscope

1500 mAH Lithum Ion

Nothing to say.

Lol, and you actually believe yourself.. None of these devices are as fast as the hd2. But go, trade it, I won't stop u. Trade it for a device with more probs and lag. Enjoy and don't complain afterwards. Btw, I txt and call and use wifi 2hrs a day and I still have 50% after 16hrs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmRipper:
Galaxy S's Hummingbird processor is absolutely faster than than any other smartphones with Snapdragon, especially GPU power... This is the fact.

Nexus S's cpu is also Hummingbird, so I'll wait for Nexus S as I told in my previous post.

[Omnia II Accessories] whitemoo:
Hi,

Considering getting this Phone and im already thinking about getting cases. There seems to be a better range of cases on the B7620 then the B7610. Looking at the size specifications on the pdadb comparer here:

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=1830&id2=1988

It looks like the B7620 is slightly bigger then the the B7610.

So do you think its possible to get this pdair case (book type) for my new B7610?

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_10000000_11000895&products_id=28408

I know there is a flip out case for the B7610, but its hella expensive

http://www.noreveaustralia.com/bran...ro_B7610_-_Qwerty_Tradition_leather_case.html

Would like to avoid spending the money on the noreve unless i can get the pdair case, but what are your thoughts?
[Omnia II Accessories] alexjbrowning:
if it helps, i bought a b7620 case from ebay for my b7610. unfortunately i can't put a link to it but if you search for 'genuine samsung b7620 case' it is the only result.

it fits very tight but it does fit

I'd recommend this case as an option for you though as it is extremely good quality and most likely a genuine samsung one

This is my first post, but i hope i'll get an answer.

I recently installed Android on my TyTN II.

I live in Holland and therefore i have a dutch sim card. The sim card comes from KPN, just to let you know.

My problem: i can't configure any apn. If I click on Access point names to configure an access point, a black screen comes up with a title bar saying APN. Nothing else on the screen.

So, how can i configure an APN?

This is intended to be a list of useful tweaks and many other useful pieces of information.

Kernel modules:

tun.ko for android 2.1

Useful for: getting OpenVPN to work

mediafire.com/?59c1c15pfyt61d7

Tweaks:

Uninstall Swype

Useful for: freeing more RAM memory, removing it if you're not using it

How to do it:

1) root using androot

2) install android terminal emulator

3) in android terminal emulator run:

rm /system/app/Swype.apk

4) in manage applications, remove the 50-200KB app which has "input" in its name

Note: This removes Swype for good from your ROM

Development:

I'm looking for help on getting a kernel built for this device. I need to get a diff between the kernel from the released "GT-I5500 OpenSource" from Samsung and a clean unpatched samsung kernel. Any help would be appreciated.

I'd also like to port CM to GT-I5500.

update: I built a patched kernel with all the patches one applies against the sources to improve performance and stability. Flashing it failed.

ive tried building the kernel from samsung but just wouldnt play nice for some reason, gonna have another stab at it tonight if i can

think i may have thought up a way to flash this in theory too...

from what i saw when i flashed froyo using odin, when your flashing "one package" files there doesnt appear to be any checks or anything. so replacing the files already in a tar could work...?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] boogiemanzor:
Not really. It still checks the signatures.

Don't flash anything you build just yet. There are quite a few unsolved issues regarding the flashing process. Once I have the full process, we can flash.
