my phone is always on airplane mode cannot make calls tried installing it again still it is the same rest all works fine also i was able to installed launcher pro from my storage works fine
[Omnia II Android Development] neato4u:
fusioncoast - Are you using the new 2011-01-31 update? (The o2droid.zip which contain the latest kernel,modules, patches and applications from Rapid and Voyteckst su correction.)

If so, I think that may be the problem as I ran into the same issue when I updated from the beta 2011-01-17. Something is wrong with the radio, it's not about the airplane mode (as it is set to off). When I try to ran a network search, I got a force close (FC).

So what did I do? I formatted (and repartitioned) my storage card, and reverted back to the 2011-01-17 beta, and I got my radio back.

Unfortunately I'm not quite sure what I did wrong. The first boot was successful, however I got an 'unable to root fs' when I try to enter Android afterwards. I've repartitioned and reformatted my storage card, but got the same issue over and over again.

Appreciate if anyone could help? Thanks.
[Omnia II Android Development] neato4u:
Did you format your MicroSD card before running heret from o2beta folder?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Yeah...the graphics is low res thats why it's pixelated. This android kernel was extracted from Samsung Galaxy Spica, which runs on lower resolution (320x480) as compared to our omnia i8000(480x800).
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Did you follow the steps provided? Most likely you have skip some important steps. Or in worst cases, reformat the SD card and do it all over again.
[Omnia II Android Development] fusioncoast:
Hi can you Integrate LCD Density changer in the Rom, i have a HTC HERO and there is a rom BY Radug called Tasty FROYO where he has integrated this program which is for free it changed the LCD Resolution to 640x480 which makes the graphics look awsome.

can we do the same for ours
[Omnia II Android Development] Myxin:
Yes, I did the steps exactly. But there was a language mistake. I don't knew, that "my storage" is the internal memory of the omnia. I installed all the stuff on the microSD card. A guy in a german forum shows me my mistake. Now it's running!

Hi,

Anyone know how to:

- (permanently) switch from Samsung IME (keyboard) to android keyboard?

- calibrate the screen?

thx

i also noticed that the battery meter differs from winmo

android says: charging: 40%

winmo says: charging: 86%

is that if I download o2b2filesys.zip of the Feb9 update, do I still need to apply those patches?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
you mean the o2bupdate.zip?
[Omnia II Android Development] scott4:
anyway, how to install the new Feb9 update? i find it auto-reboot, can't get into android.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
I haven't tried out the latest kernel yet...I will try out once I'm free...currently I having a assignment project.
[Omnia II Android Development] Sybregunne:
Yes you still need to apply those patches.

One question though did the beta2 work better than the first beta? I am still currently downloading :)
[Omnia II Android Development] Sybregunne:
Wireless problem?!?

I tried the new filesystem and the o2b2update.

It started out fine, so i used wifi to connect download call light as suggested at almars site.

2 things to note are:

1. There was no notification that my download was ongoing.

2. Network error and subsequent unable to turn on wifi errors.

I tried to reboot afterwards and now I am getting a kernel panic

[Omnia II Android Development] Sybregunne:
more errors

It seems by extracting o2b2filesys.zip using linux would change file permissions and give me errors about no permission to run certain things. can anybody help? I want to try the new filesystem thanks.

Finally got it working.

What I did now was to

1. extract o2b2filesys.zip and rename o2b2filesys.tar.gz to ext2.tar.gz

2. merge the 2d/3d drivers with the latest o2b2update.tar.gz

3. placed the new ext2.tar.gz to my storage and run haret from o2beta folder

4. after the first run (step 3) I placed the latest zImage and the merged o2b2update (Step 2) to my storage

5. I ran haret.exe from my storage.

Now everything seems working.
[Omnia II Android Development] pauloramalhoto:
Please, help me!!!

Hi, guys!

I instaled the last update (09/02 and 10/02) and I can't run android... I put the updated files in My Storage and now, when I run Haret.exe the phone restarts... Anyone can help me?
[Omnia II Android Development] Sybregunne:
try the steps i used.
[Omnia II Android Development] scott4:
it has several updates now. Is it possible that someone make a single install pack with all updates? I applied the updates and now Android cannot reboot up, phone keeps rebooting.
[Omnia II Android Development] ziadia:
Update 2011-02-09 and beta2 is not solved battery drain problem. Battery % I think ok now. When I first boot ando my omnia is 44% charged. After sending 4 sms, browse google dot com, and log on gtalk battery drained to 36% only 10 minutes! I think the big issue is battery problem.
[Omnia II Android Development] n00bslayer:
After installing the Beta2, no 3g connection, thus market etc not working.

anyone else having same issue? and any chance know how to resolve?

thx

ps: also noticed

- battery meter not correct (WinMo says 87%, Android says 47%)

- battery consumption still high (from 47% -> 31% in approx. 15 min. idle)

- difficulty 'resuming' (have to press the 'lock' button multiple times)

I got "This service is temporarily not available from your service area." when I download Gen.Y.DualBoot. 'cos I am not in the states. Can u upload to elsewhere pls? Thanks!

Also I see they have 2011-2-11 update which is a installer included 2011-2-10 updates. Need your help to make an updated tutorials ^^
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Gen Y Dualboot

Sorry, I did not own the links and files, therefore I couldn't mirror it...sorry, maybe you can look for it somewhere else on the internet.

2011-2-11 Updates

For the latest package, read the description on the UPDATES AND DEVELOPMENTS section and instructions for updates are there.

"Download it http://87.229.73.80/beta2_1024.zip (it will wipe Your current installation). As always it doesn't contain 2D/3D libraries from Samsung (if You found them somewhere on the web put it before first boot to My Storage as o2b2update.tar.gz). "

I will provide the tutorial as soon as possible.
[Omnia II Android Development] fusioncoast:
After Reading the updates all i can say is this is great work by the Team i think we are very close now i am not selling my omnia any more well i was in 2 minds now i will sell HTC Hero lolzz

how to use "Call Light" to temporary solve the sound-muted problem? thanks
[Omnia II Android Development] Sybregunne:
Just install it from the market. It prevents the screen from sleeping during calls and prevents the sound from being muted too.
[Omnia II Android Development] Sim Kai Long:
Darned, I've been trying to get this working since 2 days back and to no avail.

I kept getting this:

I've formatted my microSD via the Settings page from WinMo/SDFormatter.

I've resetted my "My Storage" via the Settings page and re-copied the installation files over. But it's still not working. What am I doing wrong? :confused:
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Have you tried out the latest beta2 installation package? It should work pretty well if you follow the instructions on posts 1, and remember to include o2b2update.tar.gz as well in My Storage.
[Omnia II Android Development] scott4:
i am confused. is it neccessary to install beta1 first then beta2? or can I format everything and install beta2 only?

I suggest to make a whole sole install package which includes all the updates instead of installing everything from the beginning and then appy patches.

Thanks!
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
YES!!!of course...the new beta2 was created and repacked just for Omnia 2 users to download...I have already posted on first post...You can delete away Beta1 stuffs/ or you will have to overwrite it anyway before you use the Beta2...

For beta2, you just have to extract and put all the files in My Storage, and with the 2D/3D files(o2b2update.tar.gz), if not beta2 will not run on your phone, phone will keep restarting.
[Omnia II Android Development] scott4:
which one do you refer to by your "of course"?

To add 2D/3D rename tar.gz to o2b2update as devs said... <==== where is the tar.gz? I have downloaded o2bupdate.tar.gz for the 2D/3D, and do you mean to rename a file to "o2b2update" without file extension?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Check first post, updated installation files, follow my method.
[Omnia II Android Development] Sim Kai Long:
Quick question here. My microSD card is only 1GB [effective memory is like 985MB].

I have to use the 512 variant or just the normal 1024 as posted by the TS?

Just tried again with the new instructions by l3ong91, but still giving me this:

mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 on /sdcard failed: No such device or address
[Omnia II Android Development] yesucan:
Thanks for posting this, and Big thanks to DEV u are doing a great job :) Now my wife Omnia II also can get Android just like my HD2 :D
[Omnia II Android Development] scott4:
great. your tutorial is improved
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
yeah, i know the first beta2 tutorial is bit confusing, it was taken from MoDaCo users, even I myself having problems in patching the beta2. The later release of Beta2 makes our life much more easier...haha
[Omnia II Android Development] spunkyxda:
at first boot i get "in process com.android.settings is not responding"

what should I do?

and how to check if I have installed 2d/3d library correctly?
[Omnia II Android Development] fusioncoast:
excellent release works like a charm but apps dont work i had installed from the internal file explorer rest all works according to the instructions i am gona try the lcd density changer i will post the results

Main Important Part is Import and Export from Sim Card is not working it shows that my sim has no contacts and for people who cannot get the Beta2 working Rename o2bupdate.tar.gz to o2b2update.tar.gz (you need to add the 2after o2b) these are the display drivers ant beta 2 will start working

LCD Density changer can the developers integrate it in the rom (like in Tasty Froyo for HTC hero) the screen looks awesome with it , installed some apps like power amp (doesnot work) and Wuzhenhua player it plays Videos Perfectly accept WMV files it lags a lot.

its nice
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Does the error still exist after Android was successfully booted? I have that problem before, but normally I would just force close it and it still works after that, maybe u can report that on the google code page.

Once you include o2b2update.tar.gz in My Storage, it should patched automatically on your Omnia 2.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
How come apps and contacts won't able to run on your phone? I just downloaded tons of apps from Market and it works flawlessly, and the contacts is imported over easily.(Actually my contacts was sync with my Google account, therefore, it is easier to have them on the phone instead of transferring them from SIM to phone)

[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
On first time run haret.exe from o2Beta folder, after that will reboot to WinMo and then you have to run again with haret.exe on My Storage on the second time.

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED CLEARLY. USE BETA2 INSTALLATION METHOD.

To connect wifi, Go to Settings>Wireless& network>WLAN

[Omnia II Android Development] spunkyxda:
no network name under there, only add network button..

i already try to add manually, but it says not in range
[Omnia II Android Development] yesucan:
Thanks for the fast reply .Yes i follow the INSTRUCTIONS clearly but still reboot to WM :( so i try this method :

' If you experience reboots I think its to lack od 2d/3d, open the 2d/3d o2update.tar.gz and copy system directory into ext2.tar with Total Commander, save archive, copy to My Storage, and try to install now'.

After format the SD card, i try from step one again the booting seem slow :confused: actually how long it takes for 2nd Booting to Android ? thanks .Already 10 minute and i still waiting ...
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Most of the users follow my method works well and Android should be running.

BETA 2 INSTALLATION TUTORIAL (EASY ALTERNATIVE) By Me, l3ong91, XDA

1. Download the latest installation package as of 11/2/2011

2. Format SD Card again using Samsung Settings>Format.

3. Delete all the Beta 1 Folder and Beta 1 files in My Storage.(if you have previously installed Beta 1 on your phone)

4. Extract and copy all the files in Beta2 installation package to My Storage.

5. Download one of the 2D/3D driver links below and rename as o2b2update.tar.gz

6. Put it in My Storage.

7. As usual, run haret.exe from o2Beta folder.

8.Then after reboot, run haret.exe from root of My Storage.

Usually first boot will took longer time, and it will appears as it stucks at:

Untar ext2.tar.gz, just wait patiently and then followed by Kernel panic, and Rebooting in 30 seconds

The second boot will be faster than the first boot most of the time.

Can you provide more information or any screenshot on the booting of Android?
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Video is currently not supported I think.

Yeah, the sleep issues is still a major problem here, there are whole chunks of posts discussing about the sleeping death issues, some suggested that the "end call" button" is the only button that works well in order to unlock the phone from sleep. Maybe you can browse through some of them over Modaco to see whether there are any suggestions.
[Omnia II Android Development] yesucan:
Thanks for the reply :) i will try to install it again tomorrow ,and i using 'nOObody and Rapid Sense 2.5 ROM'

http://www.modaco.com/content/i8000...ssion/307676/noobody-and-rapid-sense-2-5-rom/

is it 'Android friendly' or i had to flash other custom ROM for booting Android build .If yes please give me the link for the ROM that suite for the Android build .Thanks.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
This ROM is exactly the one which I'm using now for WinMo. So it shouldn't be a problem for installing Android. And I don't think that the performance of Android will be affected by the ROM as it just shut down the WinMo OS and boot up Android OS.

Please help me.
[Omnia II Android Development] evizerate:
does anyone know how to resolve the dumpstate log error at start up? the phone still boots, but there is an error @ startup. TIA
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
Why would you want to uninstall launcher pro?

Do you know that actually launcher pro makes the Android OS runs smoother on our omnia, and very obvious, with launcher pro, we can have better and non-dithered gradient on the phone, also the launcher pro makes it easier and more customisable option for homescreen; whereby by default there's only 3 scrollable page on homescreen.

Anyway, I think the dev team has included this apps as the default running apps on the system files, which means that if you really want to uninstall the apps, you will have to re-modified the system files(ext2.tar.gz) and delete the Launcher Pro apps so that it won't automatically installed on a fresh boot.

Oh yeah, and you'll have to reinstall the whole Android OS again in order to get rid of it.
[Omnia II Android Development] l3ong91:
I have encounter this problem before, but I was able to get rid of it after a few reboots or fresh install.

Below is some suggestions found on Omnia2Droid Google Source Code Page. Just go and take a look.

[Omnia II Android Development] inderbrar:

THanks l3ong91, I have already tried all that, I think the wifi hardware is same in i8000 and B7610, can a driver installer be made separately so that the wifi starts working or something similar.

[EVO 4G General] cosine83:
Basically, all NEW smartphone activations and anyone upgrading to a smartphone will be netting the extra $10/mo charge for a true unlimited amount of data consumption. If you're currently on a regular smartphone and not a 4G one, you'll be getting this new $10 fee for true unlimited data on your next upgrade if you choose to go with any BB, WM, Android, Palm/WebOS, and Instinct phone.

All-in-all, this isn't surprising and completely justified. Even WITH the $10 extra, your plan will still be cheaper than other carriers AND you'll have uncapped data. Provided you don't get a very good discount on another carrier but you'd still wind up with some kind of data cap. Now naysayers can't complain about paying for 4G when they don't have it. It is what Sprint has always been saying it is - a fee for truly unlimited data not a 4G tax.

http://newsroom.sprint.com/press_kits.cfm?presskit_id=21
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
wonder how long until this affects current customers?
[EVO 4G General] Nefariouss:
Is imagine it wouldn't affect you until you renew your contact through an upgrade.
[EVO 4G General] jblazea50:
So this really doesn't affect Evo owners as they are already paying the $10/month charge?
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
no it won't affect us. we've been paying that charge since the release of the evo.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Call us Nay Sayers or whatever you want. The 10$ was originally ONLY on 4g phones, so yea I complained. I don't have 4g here.

Don't give me the "unlimited" thing, how is my HTC Evo any more "unlimited" than my HTC Hero? Because it's a little faster? No.

This fee is fine, it actually is only fair.
[EVO 4G General] david279:
This may be the last straw for me. Im already pay a extra $10 for 4G i dont even use...sprint can call it whatever they want(unlimited data). But now your going to add this fee to my wives old Blackberry Curve. Unacceptable!
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
i agree. it's only for new customers though. if it ever affects current customers, then i'm sure you'll be able to break you contract with no fees.

i'd be okay with this charge if they had 3g everywhere. my area still only has 1x, so there isn't anything premium about 1x that's for sure.
