After a few days of troublesome upgrade attempts from .6 to .7 i've finally gotten .7 running on internal memory. I was originally running .6 on sdcard.

But now my big problem is NO WIRELESS. Sucks for me right now. Back on .6 I had no issues whatsoever with Wireless. Currently I cannot connect to 2 AP's I've setup. One using WPA and one is Open. When I enable WIFI it scans but never finds anything.

Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot that?

My upgrade nightmare went from bad to worse. I tried running the Easy Upgrade Method installing on internal, but it never seemed to take. Then it stopped seeing the SD Card during the step where you copy the UrukDroid-install.tgz (I was doing the full install, not upgrade - which maybe I should have done that instead).

Finally I decided to try to put everything back to stock and retry. I removed SDE and put the latest stock firmware back on. Then reinstalled SDE and then reattempted the .7 install to Internal using Easy method. That worked. But no i'm stuck with no wifi. When I go home tonight i'll test on my home WIFI.
[Gen8 General] chipg07:
Are you not going to address this problem? Apps that download media, like .jpgs .mp3 .mp4 are having all the media they download deleted on reboot with an internal install of urukdroid. This is a major flaw.

If you want to recreate the problem, download zedge wallpaper and ringtone from the android market and then download a few wallpapers... they will show up in the /zedge/wallpaper folder, but will disappear on a reboot..

You can also download tubemate from the market which downloads youtube videos and saves them to the Videos folder. They show up also, until you reboot.

Could you write exactly what are your steps? There can be bug for A70H devices (since it's dry run for me) - but I can fix it, just need proper feedback.

You are the only person who reported this kind of problem - yesterday I've made some mediascanner tests (witch tend to erase multimedia files in pre 2.1.8 - stock os - version) - it worked properly now, but it's possible that under some circumstances it still deletes data. That's why I've asked about your mediascanner state and how it behaves on stock os - it's probably the only thing that can do such a operation and it's lunched on every boot.

edit: Please enable mediascanner for boot (blue/white icon in UrukConfig) - and try again.
[Gen8 General] CarsnGadgets:
sorry to bump, but could anyone please answer some of my questions, thanks.

:D
[Gen8 General] $aur0n:
1) no, ext4 is for system only - data partition is still fat

2) yes

3) can't promise, but should

4) like for me - not

5) by default 1GB, in advance mode you can choose more/less

Hey, i was wondering, I am having a similar issue. Well i have checked and it doesn't seem to do it on reboot, but I did notice that I had transferred some video files to sdcard thru pc. I checked and they played. later that day I transferred some more video files and after disconnecting from pc I noticed that the ones I had put there earlier were gone only the new ones were there. The thumbnails were still there but no video file. Any idea why this happens or is the way it works?
[Gen8 General] CarsnGadgets:
thankyou very much $aur0n :D
[Gen8 General] mchipser:
I am having the same issue..
[Gen8 General] fzelle:
Same here.

Also alot of pictures where erased, but not all and when copying videos, the oldones where erased.

Just switched on mediascanner on boot and will check.

Edit:

With mediascanner on, they seem to stay, ATM.
[Gen8 General] ebidar:
Sorry for the noob question but where can I turn on mediascanner?

Update: I found it, Gonna enable and when I get home ill see if this helps. Thanks.
[Gen8 General] chipg07:
I have tried it with both mediascanner on and mediascanner off.. still deletes them..

Why dont you just download zedge and see it for yourself... after you download a few wallpapers go check /sdcard/zedge/wallpaper and the images will be there... then reboot and go back to that dir and they will be gone...

Sent from my A101IT
[Gen8 General] ebidar:
Hmm I am sorry to say that even though I do have the problem with the wiping of files when mounting to pc, which later today i will try the mediascanner option. I can say that I just tried zedge and downloaded 2 wallpapers and then rebooted and I still have the files.

a32 internet tablet

Hello

I installed Uruk 0.7 on a32 internet tablet on internal flash with 8gb yesterday.

Seems to Work okay - not bader than the stock rom.

- Issues with reliable internet connection but had them with stock rom, too.

- In Urukconfig the only option is to enable compcache or disable it.

Other services seam not to be available. Have i to edit textfiles before i can use this app ? Want to enable for instance Ntfs-service.

- Is there an option to have ad-hoc wlan networks because i have no router? Think no but perhaps i have overseen something.

- Is it possible to add more than one usb-disk at a time?

- An idea for extension: German ext keyboard layout (perhaps others too) seem on stock rom not work like it should. For example, right shift key doesnt work and other issues. Perhaps something for you, $Aur0n?

p.s. is there an android app for testing internet connection? if yes pm me everyone who knows. Thanks.

Because Browser dont work, market account doesnt, etc, nothing. As i said, surely not an issue of uruk droid, but only a question by the hand.

[Gen8 General] kapi:
Same here, it show the drive with no media on linux but not formated and can't format it, so can't install uruk even in simple or advanced mode. Need to re-apply another Zimage/initramfs to boot.
[Gen8 General] $aur0n:
guys, please write exact steps and messages. this kind of bug reports does not help since i dont own A70H and cant check if everything goes as planed...
[Gen8 General] kapi:
Step are like you discribed on the Install post (start to formating rootfs 512k+1gb, rebooting), but when it ask to connect usb for transfering the install file, the usb drive mount a device with no disk in, i looked with disk editor on ubuntu and i can select the disk part, but can't format it. So i can't transfert the instlall file, i have an HD too, may be it's only a problem with that device. Tried 4 times advanced and simple and same problem. I came back with rw initram and zimage with sde and all ok. Keep that great work.
[Gen8 General] hansb1959:
Hi all,

Same problem here. Wanted to get UrukDroid 0.7 to my Archos A70H (250GB).

Installed Archos-SDE -> O.K.

Started Recovery and flashed initramfs and zImage -> O.K.

Booted ARCHOS A70H into developer edition and UrukDroid 0.7 installation framework started -> O.K.

Started installation -> messages about creating rootfs and datafs said O.K.

Wanted to copy installation files to the Archos -> FAIL

When connecting the Archos to PC via USB no drive is mounted. First I tried Windows (with ext2ifs installed), didn't work. Finally I bootet the PC with a Live-CD of Ubuntu 10.10 . Now I can see the Archos (in Places/Computer it shows up as 'Archos A70H') and Disk Utility shows the Archos as sdc but says 'no media'. It offers me to create partitions and to format but I do not dare. :eek:

So it seems to me that during the installation routine the datafs was not created/formatted properly despite the message shown by the UrukDroid 0.7 installation framework. But I have no idea about what to do.

Can anyone please help ?
[Gen8 General] $aur0n:
Since I can't get proper feedback from A70H users it's really hard to do something for this device :(

Please try this EasyInstall files and report back what's going on...

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1017593/ArchosGEN8/UrukDroid-1.0/EE/zImage

i've changed some install parameters here - remember it's erasing entire HD.
[Gen8 General] hansb1959:
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah !

Your new raminitfs + zImage work. :-)

Flashed both in Recovery and when booting into developer edition for the first time the UrukDroid installation framework started and after creating rootfs and datafs THEY WERE FORMATTED !

At connecting via USB the Archos was mounted (even under windows) and I could copy the installfile onto it. BRAVO !
[Gen8 General] hansb1959:
A70H UrukDroid / installation issue

Bad news $aurOn !

Using the new raminitfs and zImage enabled me to run through the install procedure BUT another problem occured :

On booting into UrukDroid 0.7 [beta] an error messages appears :

UrukBoot 0.7 Boot ERROR: Failed to mount rootfs /dev/sda2 (255)

UrukBoot 0.7 Boot ERROR: Repairing rootfs finished. Please reboot...

When I do so by pressing ON/OFF for about 10s, restarting the Archos by VOLdown+ON/OFF and selecting 'Developer Edition' it happens again.

And again and again.

(That's why I haven't seen a working UrukDroid on my A70H yet)
[Gen8 General] $aur0n:
Can you connect it to Linux (with stock os) and do "fdisk -l " on this disk? You can do it also on stock OS - but it may required rooting (don't remember).
[Gen8 General] hansb1959:
I booted the A70H into stock OS and on the Archos I got a message about save removal of the disk, saying "disk can be removed safely now" (Sorry if translation might be inaccurate - I got this message in German)

On plugging in USB-cable the green robot with left-hand-USB-connector appears but the Archos cannot connect thus the robot DOES NOT turn red. So on the PC as he result of the Command < fdisk -l > I only see informations about PC's internal HD and about an USB-Stick connected to the PC. Sorry, no information about Archos' disk.

EDIT :

Archos is definetly NOT CONNECTED to PC. Command < lsusb > shows no entry for Archos
[Gen8 General] truthkillszz:
yea i get the same error also. i dont got linux to test anything thru linux tho
[Gen8 General] hansb1959:
Hi $aur0n,

meanwhile I had Archos' Harddisk recovered and checked it (Startmenu -> Recovery System -> Repair System -> Check Disk)

Now I can boot Stock OS without getting that 'Save Removal' messages. I can access the harddisk either from Archos itself or from PC via USB. So I could run < fdisk -l > on PC. It says

Disk /dev/sdc: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Disk identifier: 0x00000000

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System

/dev/sdc1 1 30401 244196001 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)

But although the HD is mounted now it doesn't help with the boot Error.

Error on booting UrukDroid hasn't changed. Still the same messages as before.
[Gen8 General] $aur0n:
This can't work - since you erased Uruk partitions. I really need to see "fdisk -l" of newly formatted with EasyInstall A70H HD. You could try use EE once again and boot to stock OS - use rooting app like archangel and do fdisk -l on hd device.

Have now UrukDroid 0.7 in my Archos 101 16GB and somehow it seem that WLAN location don't work..

Clock, weather or google Maps don't get my location info using only WLAN.

Works fine with extrernal GPS, but with default Archos Android (Fryo) wlan location worked fine and yes, I have checked that location setting allowing to locate using wlan.

OK I had dj05 superdark theme and stupid fast djo5 kernal. Non Voodoo. All seems to be running fine. Can I run with this I'm not looking to redo my whole phone with a new theme etc. Or am I looking at having problems.
[Fascinate General] Dr.Jackal:
this doesn't really belong in devs.

you should not run ROMs intended for DL09/DJ09 with Radio/Kernel intended for DJ09/DL09.

Doesn't mean they wont work, it just means there is a higher chance that things will not work.
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
I myself have been running this setup for awhile now with no ill effects.

DJ05 rom, Adrynalyne test5 kernel (05 or 09), and DL09 modem.

good day.
[Fascinate General] thatdudebutch:
Works fine. Radio has nothing to do with the rom
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Yeah, it works pretty well between dj05 to dl09.
[Fascinate General] Syn Ack:
I've got the same setup. How would I get the DL09 radio instead of DJ05?
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Use odin to flash the dl09 modem .tar.

Make sure you use pda instead of phone though.

I know this is redundant to you, but someone else might be reading this and you never know if they are going to make a mistake.
[Fascinate General] saps:
I made the same move a week ago or so. DJ05 rom and DL09 radio, then I tried 2.2 which was fine. Now back to 2.1 still on DL09 radio and dj05 rom. Its no better or worse honesty.

good day :p

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Candy[MAN]:
Once you install xrecovery, you lose that feature. It overwrites the chargemon file that controls that.

All you have to do it overwrite the new chargemon file with the original one.

For me, once I was done with xrecovery, I uninstalled it and put back the original chargemon file. I now have "charging when turned off" back.

However 1 tablet's touch screen is very bad, and it keeps freezing on the green screen when booting up. The other one is completely fine very odd...

But following your guide which I did on both has now fixed all issues and now I hope to put on a much better firmware, well there is'nt really any new firmware for

this at the moment only the other tablets... gingerbread I hope to be out soon as this will really open up the tablet as the spec is very good

3. Press the VOL- twice to highlight "wipe data/factory reset".

5. Press VOL- seven times to highlight yes.

6. Press MENU to select and then wait for format to complete.

7. Press MENU to reboot.
