[Touch Cruise Android Development] :
Hello everybody,

I was quite happy to find this post because I've tried to put Android Froyo in my Pola but I've already met problem !!!! A lot of bugs !!!

I re-read this post and I decided to verify all the requirements. I have 2 differences :

* My pola is a POLA160 and not POLA100. What is POLA160 ? It's the first time I read that !! Is-it potentialy a problem ? I've never verified the reference before.

* My radio ROM is 1.65.38.14. Is-it a known problem ?

I really want to update my Polaris downloading Android.

Thanks

Rémy

Help me, my problem:

Install system:

tar: can't open ' /sdcard/andboot/androidinstall.tar' :No such file or directory

Failed

Failed to extract

???
[Touch Cruise Android Development] spalx:
the card was used with this phone before ... just erased everything on it and then copied the .nbh to the root of the card, and copied the other files inside the directory, you wrote in your step by step guide. Now when i see the bootloader i see:

POLA100 MFG

SPL-2.20.OliNex

CPLD-2

and when i press the power button to start flashing, nothing happens ... please advice. Thank you.

Ok, nevermind, i`m an idiot after all. The card was formatted in FAT, not FAT32, once i re-formatted it and re-uploaded the files i see the instllation. I found though i have the same problem as this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10763042&postcount=8

is there a way you can help me ?

Just to note, the LCD display on my Polaris was replaced as the original was broken. I assume that is significant for the colors of the penguin ...

Yesterday i have done all steps and my htc cruise works fine... after that i have update done as u described in your step 7,8,9. After that my screen doesn't work more.. touch doesn't work!!

Thank you makousika! Finally after a few months of constant flashing to Android I'm having a stable system with everything working and not breaking after a few days of use :) I think I was always missing that second update you mention - what's the magic in it? :) Again thank you for putting it all together! :) Cheers!

Thank you for your answer makousika but before installing in "NAND", I wonder if

[Touch Cruise Android Development] fredmatias:
Well... I seem to find the same hard spl problem.

The above thread is for a different HTC phone and the program causes softreset of my Touch Cruise :(

As MaxerFR, My hard spl is the 2.20 version... is this imcompatible with the Nand Android ROM proceure in post #2 of this thread?

Is there anyway I can find the hardspl 2.08?

Thanks in advance
[Touch Cruise Android Development] makousika:
Tato95 i cannot do that right now.. Sorry for the big waiting time, please download them seperatelly.

No problem... :)

That's the Hard SPL that I used (it was my first Flash on the Touch Cruise :D

I tried initially this thread but there is a missing link... :(

Do you have the PC files for the 2.08 hard spl? I would like to try them.

Meanwhile yesterday night, after 2hours fighting with android installation I flashed Megan's WMobile 6.5 manila ezimput 2.1...and it was ok (installed directly from the PC - not the sdcard - through Hardspl program) but I would REALLY like to install Android (I have a tablet and I'm surrended to Android OS :))
[Touch Cruise Android Development] makousika:
Megan's Rom is the one i am using too!

I will give you the Hardspl i have on my polaris.

I will send you a pm right now.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] fredmatias:
Thanks for all the help...

Will update situation next Monday!

[Touch Cruise Android Development] alzabine:
Hei makousika, could u pm me the link to download the hardspl as well? I dunno, with my current hardspl, i can install any other room except megan room. I can install android (both nand and Haret), kostas, and M-amine.

Thanks in advance :)
[Touch Cruise Android Development] fredmatias:
Managed to try to update in the lunch hour...

With the new/old hardspl I HAVE ANDROID!!!

MANY THANKS to makousika :)

Keep up the good work!! :)

Love Android and already done update!
[Touch Cruise Android Development] Tato95:
Makousika,

Thank you.

I downloaded the files and installed them in my device (HTC Touch Cruise) but the OS is slow and sluggish.

•	keep disconnecting from my protected network problem - works by adding my network manually.

•	Angry Birds game - works but slow.

Q. What’s about the others apps & games form the Android Market, Are they working?

Q. If I used the NAND installation, will it be faster and more stable?
[Touch Cruise Android Development] MaxerFR:
Someone can send me the HardSPL 2.08 please ??
[Touch Cruise Android Development] fredmatias:
Please check your PM
[Touch Cruise Android Development] makousika:
Hey Tato95,

I never experienced a network problem since i have repacked in the androidinstall, the neccesary wifi fix.. I cant imagine why you get a problem with your wifi.. Try switching off and then on your modem, and let me know!

As for the apps, everything from the market works, bot since polaris doesnt have the required I/O it might not run them all ;)

And finally... YES Nand is faster and with less crashes, but it requires a bit more advanxed knowledge on how to install, cause if you dont have enough experience a tiny problem can destroy your build!

As for anyone asking for the HARDSPL, i am attaching it here!
[Touch Cruise Android Development] niabi:
I tried installing this, from nand and from haret, but they both give me the same results, my screen is stuck at the penguin sitting down and a bunch of letters on the screen, nothing happens.. left it for 30 minutes I can see at the very bottom it says fake_vsync_int

any ideas what might be wrong?

Nevermind, Reboted and it worked (strange as it didn't worked the first 10 times)

anyways now another problem, I See the lock screen, when I try to unlock it, it just hangs :( I have to press the pwoer button to lock the screen again, no way to unlock it, and sometimes the screen just "flips" or its mirrored really strange...
[Touch Cruise Android Development] osilvan:
I have heard about nand corruption in tilt and vogue threads. Did you experience this problem?

Thanks in advance

[Touch Cruise Android Development] MaxerFR:
Hello,

How install update3.zip ?? :s
[Touch Cruise Android Development] arzakem:
correct me if im wrong, i think it should be noted that update3.zip is a compressed file and you have to extract the real file inside ( which is with tar extension ) and copy it inside the andboot folder. Then reset the phone then keypress the cursor Center as soon as the penguin logo appears, then choose INSTALL UPDATE. Then click exit to continue with the booting.

Ive been crashing a lot of times until i did this.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] MaxerFR:
It's true. Thank you arzakem :)

for me the haret way is very good , because camera working and every thing else not bad , but fm radio not working any more

i hope to see a android package working on our polaris , and every small part in our PDA working great

thanks alot
[Touch Cruise Android Development] arzakem:
by the way this build you should try in NAND. It is more stable.

1. Format your sdcard.

2. Download the Image File (POLAIMG.NBH) from the NAND post above. Extract it and copy to your sdcard.

3. Download the Installation File from the NAND post above.

4. Go to this post... and copy the "rom" link or click the big words Back In Black RLS18. (Sorry I cant copy that link because its not mine).

5. download these updates update1 and update2.

6. Extract the rom file and rename it as "androidinstall" leaving the original file extension as it is.

7. Extract the 2 update files which will be androidupdate.tar and androidupdate.tgz

8. Create a folder named andboot on your sdcard then put the 4 files inside namely (1)the installation file install-seq.sh, (2)the renamed rom file androidinstall.tar and (3&4)the 2 update files androidupdate.tar and androidupdate.tgz

9. Enter bootloader mode by holdpressing power+camera buttons and clicking reset button. Follow image install instructions and click exit when finished to reboot the phone.

10. Phone turns on. Linux penguin shows and installation of android follows. Sip a cup of hot tea for a while until you see the android screen.

11. Don't bother with the setup yet. Holdpress the power button and choose reboot or turn off.

12. Turn on the phone again by pressing power or sometimes the reset button if power doesnt turn it on.

13. As soon as the penguin shows, holdpress the center cursor button. When the android boot menu comes out choose Install Update. As soon as it is done and goes back again to the Android boot menu, choose Fix permissions.

14. Choose Exit and let android load.

This android is Superfroyo and I find it more stable. Some files have been deleted to give more phone memory space after installation. There is no Live wallpaper and if you want it back you can google for the files "livewallpaper.apk" and "livewallpaperspicker.apk" and install it thru sdcard.

USB connection and sync isnt working so u cannot access your phone/sdcard files thru usb. To transfer your pc files to your android polaris u can install SwiFTP thru the market and create a new network connection to your windows My Computer explorer and access your phone/sd thru the SwiFTP client. This aint mine i just read accross the fourm pages and tried countless times till it worked. Hope it does with you too. I suggest u should try the original NAND installation posted first before following mine.
[Touch Cruise Android Development] jmarcelin02011:
Great man!

The best tutorial ever!

Its working 100%
[Touch Cruise Android Development] alzabine:
I installed it on my polaris,followed your instruction one by one, after installing some apps like facebook, twitter then i tried to either turn of or reboot my polaris.

But after some reboots, the system didn't boot again completely, it froze. I had to install the Rom completely new, because I had no other chance to run it again.

Got any solution for this matter?
[Touch Cruise Android Development] chourmovs:
you have to use the "backup data & "restore data" trick in startup nand console menu :it doesn't prevent nand corruption but it prevents loss of current setup

nand is known to run frequent corruption data so it is the only good way to circumvent loss of data
[Touch Cruise Android Development] arzakem:
there is a wellknown bug about contact accessing apps that freeze your system and leaves you reinstalling the whole system. I occasionally have that and more in other setups. What you need to do AFTER installing a fresh new system is to install only basic apps or utilities like EASY Installer, ADW themes, and minimal personalizations like Wifi home setups, then REBOOT the phone, access the Android Boot Menu, then choose BACKUP/DATA from the menu. After the backup is done around a minute or 2, Exit the menu and continue on your boot. In this case you can try any app you like from the market and install them. Then reset the phone and check whether the app u installed i still there. If it does it's best to do the BAck/up again. We cannot guarantee that every software we install works. The best things is when all fails again, you need not install every cusotmizations back, all you have to do is access the Android Boot Menu and this time choose the RESTORE/DATA menu. Then what u have backed-up earlier will be reinstalled again. Saves time.

Oh my god. Dude, u freakin own! I was searching the right files starting 5 pm till 2 am and I always get those damn errors. This ones works perfect! Thanks again! My father would be so proud ... Hehehe. Your files are the only one that worked for my Polaris.

I have still one question though. Does the Wi-Fi work in this Kernel? Cause it won't enable it, maybe because I uses Wireless Theterring?

[Streak 5 General] chaosdefinesorder:
Just wanted a place to express how extremely pleased I am with the battery life of my Streak. I came to the Streak a month or so ago after using the Nokia N900 for a year (great device, abandoned it due to Nokia's abandonment amongst other things. Shame, really, Maemo 5 is the most intuitive and easiest to use mobile OS I've ever seen so far!). I was expecting to need to carry the USB cable with me every day due to the large screen and my reasonably heavy use during the day...

My usual scenario is to unplug the Streak at 8:30am and immediately turn on Bluetooth and connect my Sennheiser MM-200 earphones through A2DP. Start listening to MP3s through Winamp straight away. ~10GB of Music on shuffle all day.

Walk half an hour to work, then turn on 3G Data (Widgetsoid "Data" button) and enable auto-sync (gMail and other various background data services).

FeedR set to update list of ~25 feeds every half hour

Reasonable amount of web browsing as well as feed reading throughout the day.

Approx 10 or so SMS messages sent and received.

Reading eBooks through Kindle app during lunch break.

Screen brightness set to ~30%

HSDPA signal remains between -0 and -68dB while at work; "full signal" according to top bar meter of Android.

Battery for bluetooth earphones runs out ~6:30-7:30pm (approximately matching conservative error margin for Sennheiser's 12 hour claim!)

Streak battery by this point is still at 45%!

Wi-Fi turned on and connected to home network since ~6:30pm. FeedR still checking feeds every 30mins.

It's now just gone midnight and BattStatt is still reporting 36%!:D

To put my amazement in perspective, my N900 would have been flat by 1pm with an identical routine!:eek:

Running rooted official unlocked Dell 2.2 with only "modification" being the "Performance Fix"

So, what are other Streak'ers routines like? How long do you get through the day before needing to reach for the PDMI?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat_For_Sale:
Are you using a particular app for this ? I have heard of some apps breaking these feature. LED's have a kinda high failure rate, relative to other lighting sources.. it is possible you burnt out or had a defective LED
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BalooZ:
If you use your LED flashlight as a torch (with a widget for example), it automatically stops after a while (perhaps a minute, I haven't checked that), that's meant to keep the LEDs healthy...

So no need to reboot your phone, just manually stop the torch (even if it has already been automatically stopped) and relaunch it.

I am having problems with the word "it's" in my user dictionary. For some reason, even if the word is in the middle of a sentence, spell check always wants to capitalize the word. I'm not an English major, but i'm pretty sure it should be lower case, unless it is at the beginning of a sentence, no? I put "it's" in my user dictionary, and when I look in there, the word is in there. When I go to make a sentence with "it's" in it, the only choice I have is with an upper case "I". why would this be happening?

I never found anything that worked well enough for me. What I did was copy all of the vcard(vcf I think) files to a directory on my sdcard. Then from the Android contacts application there's an option to load contacts from vcard files. It will scan the directories on your sd card and automatically import any vacrds it finds. Did this on my phone, have no idea if you need to copy to your internal sd card on your gtab or if the external sd card works
