Same for RHOD100 (31/3 kernel)

I can add that it is not a toggle:

Stylus out => Landscape

Stylus in => Portrait (also with keyboard out)

EDIT:

Back key will set correct orientation, just like it does at lock screen after boot.... hmmmmmmm.

Stylus Out or Stylus In wake up my device.

4/2 kernel does the same as above.

30/3 kernel does none of above.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rodrilobo02:
I was testing the new 4/2 Kernel and I got a failed wake after ~5 hours.

And sinces 03/31 I'm having problems on some calls, I got no call audio, have to enable/disable speaker to get it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rcgators:
If you had the phone in silent (vibrate) then it's known. btw... that's not one of the items on this test kernel. The test kernel has been about SoD, wake and panel issues with a few other fixes thrown in to keep us druling.:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] slobba:
Ahh so thats why my phone is still starting in landscape mode. It must be because I lost my stylus some time ago :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
Yep, stylus toggles portrait/landscape for me too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] usatraveler:
Confirmed on Tilt2 - stylus toggles portrait/landscape, with ONE exception - if the keyboard is closed, orientation is portrait, and the stylus is out, re-inserting the stylus does NOT toggle the orientation to landscape. As far as I can tell, all other combinations of keyboard, orientation, and stylus direction result in a toggle.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HolyAngel:
Yep confirmed!

Will keep testing overnight to see if the failed wakes stop, so far it's definitely waking up noticeably faster than before though ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] teemo:
its not a toggle on my RHOD100.

Stylus out will always set landscape.

Stylus out will never set portrait.

Stylus in => portrait, never landscape.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Do you have auto rotate set? It's the orientation setting under display I believe.

I think WisTilt2 is going to pull the commit out, it's not a big deal and the problem is in userland, not in kernel.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] teemo:
Auto rotate was not set. I just enabled it now. Same behaviour.

Stylus out do the same as keyboard out. Stylus in the same as keyboard in, as far as I can tell.

I don't mind, not even the power up issue, since I control the stylus.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
The bottom led flickers when the keyboard is out and the button is pressed. I've had issues with failed screen wakes with 4/2, I know that the system itself is responding because the keyboard light turns on/off.

-- Starfox
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Fierofiend:
I haven't had a failed wake yet with the 4/2 kernel. The phone is much quicker to come back up using either the power or end key. I have noticed my wifi won't turn on now, just says "error' when I try but I'm not sure if that is a known issue with this since its just for testing wake.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] slickdaddy96:
That really has nothing to do with the kernel, but I will let you know I have no problems with Wi-Fi whatsoever on my Rhod400 so you got bigger problems with your build it looks like maybe unrelated to this kernel. Just an FYI.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Fierofiend:
Okay, then disregard that portion. Thanks for the help. As mentioned above, I get the button flicker with the keyboard open when the button is pressed, then it flickers again when I release.

EDIT: Slickdaddy was correct. The wifi not working was a result of booting from Gen.Y. When I run haret from WM, wifi works fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ws6nightcat:
i have alot of sod's with 4/2 update, i had one in three days with the previous kernel, i haven't changed anything else, should i recreate my data.img?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] muziling:
SoD this morning too, back to 11-3-1 version, this version is great, some fail wake but no SoD.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pdawg17:
This 4/2 kernel is by far THE BEST EVER on my Rhod400...I have not had one SoD or failed wake...in fact the wakes occur almost immediately after pressing the power button to turn the screen on...fantastic work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
First - So far no failed wakes, no SoDs, although I don't think I ever had the "classical" SoD of stuck-in-solid-green, just orange-light and blinkengreen crashes due to RIL issues.

Second - There is a minor issue with backlight control, there's a possibility it's in userland but I'm not sure. I have "Keep screen on while charging" set in the Development settings, and older kernels respected this option. The new kernel only partially respects it. The behavior is as follows:

Car charger, wall charger, or USB: After the display timeout, the display dims to minimum brightness but the phone does not enter sleep.

Off of charger: After the display timeout, the display dims to minimum brightness. A few seconds later it sleeps.

So the kernel is holding off sleep, but it is dimming the backlight.

Third:

Please be clear - when you say SoD, describe the specific symptoms.

Because if it was with an orange or blinking green light, it likely has nothing to do with the kernel and more to do with the fact that you were running a wacked-out RIL of mostly unknown heritage (with a GIT version tag that matches nothing from hyc's revision history).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] The_Font:
Kernel 4/2 is working nice on my RHOD100/AUO. I am running it for about a day now. No SOD so far. Stylus out/in does change from landscape to portrait.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] tehb13:
Works stable only if disabled all wireless connections(wifi,3G). If Mobile Data Connection is on after sleep phone often not wakes up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Wifi instability is a new one. 3G instability is not a kernel problem and a known RIL issue, highlandsun's test RIL hopefully solves this.

When it hangs, what is the LED state? Please don't bother reporting issues unless you can give some better details, like what the LED state was when the phone hung.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ws6nightcat:
i have a blinking green light when it doesn't wake, it hasn't gone solid green in sleep since i updated to this kernel, i'm using frx06 highlandsun's ril
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] muziling:
kernel with New more stable ril:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009112

When being connected to PC ,SoD many times.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Kernel should not have changed anything with wifi - and again, the latest changes are not about testing wifi!!! Please, test the things that are being changed and report on them. Go back to autobuild kernels if you have other issues.

I use both this kernel and hyc's RIL - same phone too, RHOD400. Not a single SoD yet, and I connect it to adb all the damned time.

One thing I have noticed, is sluggishness. I don't know if it's me or what but my phone seems to keep dragging... Tried a new data.img, I haven't tried different kernels yet to see if it persists...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
No dragging here - I do always lead off with a task kill using Advanced Task Killer Free.

If you've been playing around with that OpenSignal app that was discussed on IRC for a bit (tower mapping thing for those that don't know) - The app is pretty poorly written and makes the phone sluggish and I think it was wakelocking me.

For those whose phones stay constant blinkengreen and don't fully go to sleep - grab a dmesg and post it here please. Also try using a task killer to see if the situation improves - if it does, then find out which app is causing the problem.

I have found that a common cause of blinkengreen hangs with older RILs is that when the phone is entering sleep and has an active WiFi connection, it will transition to a mobile data connection. If the connection establishment failed, the RIL would die. I think highlandsun's latest RIL should fix this, but I really need to beat on it more to find out. Unfortunately for the past few days I haven't been in my typical "weak signal causes boom" situations.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eik:
With highland's ril I do not seem to have the crashes with an orange light anymore. Today I have had 2 hangs with a solid green light (SoD). When I phone my number I go to VM.

Battery life is good and in general wakes and sleeps are good too.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dsramesh:
loaded latest kernel and it still crashes on running haret. Basically the Haret popup comes and the bar moves to 100% and that is it, the unit just freezes up. I tried deleting the data.img file also.

This is on Verizon Touch Pro2 (Rhod 500) with rootfs from 2/24 and lastest kernel from first page and FRX06 (tried with FRX05). It was working with 2/24 build.

My startup file currently:

set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 2292

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmvkeyb_toggle=off gsensor_axis=2,1,3 force_cdma=1 pm.sleep_mode=1 physkeyboard=rhod500"

boot

Help.

Thanks!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Works fine for others...

Can you run kernels from the autobuild?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Update: Two failed wakes today, or more specifically, failed backlight activations.

LED turned orange, I could just barely see that the display was active (as opposed to completely blank), but backlight was off. Touching the touchscreen didn't turn the backlight on.

I was even able to unlock the phone and observe the menu pop up when using the menu button. Didn't attempt to navigate to display settings to try and tweak the BL - my eyes aren't that good!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
Too bad you didn't have the powercontrol widget.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hrm, I've had a few of these - but I always thought it was the other way around, where the backlight was up but the panel was not...

Perhaps I should look closer. Basically I've had a few where the light goes orange, and swiping causes a vibe - but there's nothing on the screen from what I can tell. I thought the backlight came on too - I'll try to see if the screen is on but bl isn't, that would be interesting....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] fishingmedic:
I had a couple of failed wakes yesterday on Highlandsun's new RIL and wistilts latest test kernel, but I attributed both to low battery. Both times if I slid the KB out it lit up, all lights would work including backlight, but nothing would wake it. Just took it out of holster and led was orange. Each time when I SR back to winmo the batt was damn near dead. Other than those two times had no failed wakes, reboots, SOD's, etc. And I was traveling all over known good and bad service areas.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Every time I've had that widget it has proven to be a buggy steaming turd. I avoid it these days - this is probably one of the few cases that it would have been beneficial.

I've seen that behavior in the past but not with recent kernels - I think that's more of the classic "failed wake". It's a lot more obvious when the backlight comes on and it is blank then when the display activates with no backlight. It's REALLY hard to tell that there is anything there w/o the backlight. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] slickdaddy96:
I got problems with the 3/31 and 4/2 kernel...

I am on vacation right now, or I would spend more time on this and gets some dmesg's. The 3/31 and the 4/2 kernels give me multiple issues with SOD's, fails to go to sleep, fails to wake up without pressing the buttons several times. I am running Rhod400. Now I am in a location I am usually not at, but I have a decent signal most of the time. I went back to the old 3/11 kernel which was the best one for me, and I have not had a single issue since I did that. I will test the new kernel out again when I get back from vacation. I was just letting people know so that that last kernel doesn't get committed to the tree.

My biggest issue with the new one was it didn't want to go to sleep, and no nothing was running, gps wasn't checked. The 3/31 kernel did the same thing to me. Everything was just like the 3/11 kernel which went to sleep fine, but it would just always give me the green blink. Killed the battery, so while I am on vacation I had to switch back for the time being.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well, I'm not having any of these problems - if anything this kernel is the best yet for the failed wake issue.

Most of the SoD's seem to be from the RIL - but I can't say 100% that each and every SoD can be blamed on the RIL. hyc's new test RIL has had some great feedback in this area, might want to check it out.

Also, this kernel sleeps perfectly for me... So again, I'm not sure what you're doing differently but it's working great for me!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sorry for the doublepost, just wanted to say there's a new kernel - minor fixes folks ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Ltilt2:
I want to test this new Kernel but every time I do so, my tilt2 goes crazy. I mean, I get SODs, fail wakes. I even tried the new testing RIL but I dont know if I added the texts correctly. Argghhhh I PM you, maybe you can help me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Responded to your PM.

These kernels are being produced and tested before they're passed to me by a gentleman with the same phone as you - RHOD300/Tilt2. So if anything, they should work best on your phone :p.

Perhaps time for a new data.img?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
Does the 4/4 kernel fix anything other than the reverts to stylus/button led issue?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] nasapunk88:
going well

im running FRX06 with 4/2 kernel on my tilt 2. I haven't had to boot into Winmo since then! Its been great. Solid green within 2 seconds of pressing power and wake's up fairly well always. Usually within few seconds, sometimes its a bit slow but prob related to all the apps i have running.

No SOD's (other then RIL related reception still, i've just been going airplane mode in bad reception area's).

gonna try the new kernel with fixes today now =)

haret freezing on Rhod500 (Verizon TP2)

Tried again and the same thing. This time I deleted and added all the files:

startup

ts.calibration

haret

initrd

modules-2.6.27.46-01276-g6a6a1c1.tar

rootfs.img

zImage

system.ext2

the standard directories:

AndroidApps

conf

media

Still the same, run haret.exe, the popup comes up and goes to 100% and just freezes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eww245:
I have no problem with haret with RHOD500. This is not related with the test kernels if it will not get past haret. Please post in the FRX06 thread, if you are using that build.

Are the files in the root of the SD card?, if not rel_path must be added to the startup.txt You could always just reformat the SD and try try again.

I hope you have not renamed any of the files, it looks like most of the file extensions are missing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ryannathans:
Audio is NOT working in this kernel. It does in the latest autobuild
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dsramesh:
I was lazy on the extensions and they are there.

- I basically did a copy / paste

- Using FRX05 --> get the same result.

I do have the relpath=andboot

I will backup the data on sdcard (9GB of data), reformat and try again.

04/04, 02/04 and 11/03/2011 kernel working on my tp2 except it lost gsm sign when my device go to sleep. My device is rhod 500 and i running on gsm network (i changed force_cdma =0).

the last version dont have this problem is 01/03. This WisTilt2's version is based on 01276.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eww245:
We are off track of this thread, but I would recommend a smaller SD card if you have 9GB of data it must be at least a 16GB card. There will likely be issues at that size.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] xi.lin:
Using FRX06 & 4/4 WisTilt2 kernel & highlandsun's latest ril patch on my rhod 100

Wake up & sleep works excellent! I can see the long green light and blink light when charged.

Just to try a long time sleep and see what would happen.

The problem for me is that i can't save my APNs. I'm using china mobile and set the apn setting refer to the cm's APNLists.

<apn carrier="China Mobile" mcc="460" mnc="00" apn="cmnet" type="default,supl" />

<apn carrier="CHina Mobile MMS" mcc="460" mnc="00" apn="cmwap" proxy="10.0.0.172" port="80" mmsc="http://mmsc.monternet.com" mmsproxy="10.0.0.172" mmsport="80" type="mms" />

Both try the mnc 00 & 02, no lucky..

What's more, i use a tool call HiAPN which is used to auto set apns. But it tells me that the SIM card is not inserted.. Actually, i can have the phone call and sms..

Updated: I'm quite sure that it's not the ril's problem since i comment the sentence to mount it and still i couldn't save the apns.

Updated 2: I ask some one to call me while the solid green light is on. Nothing happen in my phone while he said the call is ringing. And after that i try to wake it up and it just become very slowly..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ryannathans:
Just adding that I have never had problems of any kind with my 16GB sd.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vinceweis:
relpath needa to be rel_path. You forgot the underscore.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] driftin:
I have the same issue, with my Rhod400 (us cellular version). Like him, I'm using it on GSM network, and none of the kernels except the 1/3 version keep a signal during sleep... I had started to think it was only me, since no one else seemed to report it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
The full changelog is listed, and I do mention the changes are minor in this newest one...

If you can't run autobuild kernels, please don't try these test kernels. They're meant for testing... :rolleyes:

Audio works for everyone else... Are you sure?

Hrm... What about autobuild? Have you traced it to where it breaks in the autobuild kernels? Perhaps it isn't the screen collapse commit that caused this bug...

Hop on IRC sometime, WisTilt2 needs logs... lots of logs.

See above.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HolyAngel:
well i updated my gingerbread from the 4/2 kernel which seemed to work great save for the stylus issue, to the 4/4 kernel and now im back to SOD's all the time but the stylus issue is fixed. Minus the SOD's, things are fine outside of the already known/called issues. :/

Running a Rhod300/tilt2..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] slickdaddy96:
Hey Arghhh,

I took your advice and put the RIL testing library in my phone and started using the 4/4 kernel also, and now it is probably the most stable thing I have ever run. My issues with the 3/31 and 4/1 kernel looked to be unrelated to the kernel probably and more of losing signal when getting into elevators and going to the middle of this condo I am in on vacation. It would just kill the phone completely. So kernel works great once I put the RIL in!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Glad to hear it. Many components within Android, and many still have bugs. We're working hard to squash them all ;).

Honestly not a whole lot changed between 4/4 and 4/2 - can you try a new data.img perhaps?

Gingerbread isn't so stable either, might want to try on Froyo.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] HolyAngel:
I did try it with a new data.img, even reformating the card and redoing it all brand new and even got sod right after the first bootup that didn't happen with the 4/2 kernel. I do realize gingerbread isn't as stable though.. but its fast and has a few good features i miss when using froyo :(

Hadn't tried the RIL thing the others are talking about though, i may try that, and yeah at worst, go to froyo and try it there. Either way, thank you very much :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dsramesh:
Reformatted my sdcard and it is now working. Looks like couple of corrupted files in some directory no relation to android was causing the issue.

Now I see lot of "Force close" messages with this latest build.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dsramesh:
After couple of reboots and some slowness, it is now working fine for the last hour at a decent speed. Was able to sync my work email, gmail, and download from market.

While sleeping it is blinking green, should it be solid green for full sleep?

Read first post.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Jandyman:
I got a SOD (Or was it a ril freeze?) Today, Become unresponsive with a blinking green light what error does this indicate again?

-on latest kernal/test ril
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Who knows what it indicates. Are you on the latest test RIL? What build are you running?

There have been many theories for the SoD, one of the 'main' ones was related to the RIL - bad service or switching cell sites would cause issues basically. The new RIL has been better for a lot of people, but that doesn't mean the phone will never freeze - there's still some bugs out there, could still be RIL related too. Almost need to have logs running constantly to catch stuff like that, because there's really no way we can tell what actually happened without logs....

However, you should know that blinking green indicates a wakelock is present and for some reason the phone isn't sleeping ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Jandyman:
Lol yeah I know that much :P. But it usually sleeps fine, its just the freeze while in this state which is unusual. Also I recall that before when you where defining what a true SOD is you referred to the state of the LED to diagnoze if it was a true SOD or if it was RIL related, or maybe it was somene else who said it.

Anyway I'm going to presume its an RIL issue because I was in school at the time, where signal is very problematic and that seems to be the only place where I have any problems at the moment. Next time I'll remember get a logcat on the next boot after the problem :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Eh, you'd need to have logcat running while the issue occurred. Easier said than done, especially since it overwrites... But you could probably set something up that just logs to your SD on boot.

The issue is typically RIL, but most have reported the new RIL fixes issues with service - perhaps the issue hasn't been licked completely however.

Between the new kernel and the new RIL, the phone sleeps so fast for me, I hardly even see the blinking green LED :p.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Jandyman:
Hhmm that's what I taught but then someone over at the RIL testing thread said to someone who had troubles with the ril to install terminal emulator.And use a command to dump it to SD I was going to try this but I suppose if there isn't a backup kept it'd be pointless. XD

But I agree, when I'm not in school the kernal/ril combo works brilliantly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yes, they were telling them to set it up on boot so it would basically log everything to that file. I would think it would still overwrite, but perhaps you could catch an issue using that method - hard to tell if the log will be useful or not, but it can't hurt.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Jandyman:
I understand now :) and I tink more then likely the only way id catch the issue is if I set it up to log to sd while in school so id hopefully catch the problem while its running. I'll try it when iv time :)
