[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
There was a time, I wanted a Sense build too, because its HTC and it came with WinMO6.5 "Sensed".

But Reefermattness healed me with his BLAZN builds.

I say: Stay with the stock standard reference releases/builds brought to you be Google. There are enough launchers via market available (in my opinion, there is only one worth trying and better than the standard and thats LauncherPro) and it's still more smooth and faster than with Sense

(don't forget: we are in the TP2/Tilt2 subforum, so I guess, you have nearly the same phone than anybody else in this subforum and the TP2/Tilt2 isn't the fastest - or in other words - too slow for Sense on Android if you want to have a really useable phone and not to have some breaks between every step of input you have made before you can continue your work. And I guess it's even worse with GB2.3, because it needs even more hardware resources than Froyo2.2 - or am I wrong?)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I found ADW and really like it. Zeam is pretty snappy too.

As for GB, I actually find it runs much faster than Froyo in *most* cases. So I'd say that hardware requirement in GB is a myth.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
Launcher Switcher is quite helpful when trying to find out, which Launcher might be attractive to one. I still have Launcher7 (looks like Windows 7 Mobile), ADW, GO Launcher EX, the standard one and Launcher Pro and can change from one to another anytime I want to.

So, you'll stopp working on Froyo and [BUILD] **Complete Froyo Bundle!!** FRX06 - "Stable" - Minor Fixes? At least when it's as bugfree and stable as FRX06?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Your question confuses me... Neither build is stopping, both Froyo and GingerBread still need work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
But who wants Froyo if he/she can get Gingerbread? Its a more recent version of Android. So less bugs, more functions etcpp. And if its even faster...So tell me: when Gingerbreads runs on the TP2/tilt2 like Froyo does it now, why would someone not prefer GB? And as a result, you can stopp working on Froyo builds. But thats future for now.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Because some people still prefer Froyo, mainly because the issues with Froyo are less than the issues with GB - the main ones being data connectivity, and any type of location-based services.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
Froyo actually works reliably on all the phones that offer it. Gingerbread is still crash prone on *all* of the devices that offer it. Go look at how many times Gingerbread releases for Motorola, Samsung, or whatever native devices have been delayed by Verizon, Sprint, etc...

Eventually Gingerbread might be good enough for daily use. But even on the native Android devices, it's a bug-ridden mess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
And then? No need for Froyo anymore!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mymyway:
love this build, very fast in my rhod210, faster than froyo installed in my phone.

.. waiting for gps and other features.

great job guys ...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vnes1984:
I love this build too. I've been using it for over a month now and just can't go back to froyo. Looking forward to 2.3.4 from stine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Serren:
vnes1984, how did you manage to get reliable data on this build with Sprint? I thought us cdma's were S.O.L. on data as the build stands now? For me this GB bundle worked great, exact for that data dropping out all the time.

Thanks in advance for sharing your tricks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vnes1984:
Well, there is no fix (that I know of) to prevent loosing data after a phone call for CDMA but I'm using an app to help cycle the data (off/on) It's called MmsZap 2.0 You have to uncheck the box at the top left hand corner and then hit the back button. Anyway, once it's all set up, after a phone call, I just start the app and hit the back button and after about 20-30 seconds I have full data again. I admit its not the best scenerio but I see enough positives in GB (especially with emulators) over Froyo to use this. Hope it helps!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] scooper:
I got an audio problem and I'd like to know what's the most likely culprit if someone can tell me.

I'm still troubleshooting by replacing files.

Anyway, here goes. Last night I plugged the phone in to have it charged the battery. This morning, after I unplugged, I couldn't get it to wake up. Been using for months and rarely that happened. So I had to manually reset it. When completely booted, I found out the audio doesn't work anymore. It's working in Windows.

So far, I replaced system.ext2 and then had it create new data.img as well, but both did not solve the problem.

Not much else beside zImage to troubleshoot? I'm moving the files over to PC and format the SD card if I have no other choice. I searched for sound in this thread and found nothing. Hmm, I should search for audio as well. haha.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] the show stopper:
it gives me error saying, you need to unzip a rootfs zip file to the root folder of your sd card". what is it ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] scooper:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=935710

It's for keyboard mapping mainly. You need it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Have you been running any of the testing stuff that's been flying around, or just what's in the first post of this thread?

Have you tried different kernels? I've heard of people's sound randomly failing, but I don't think there was ever a definitive solution. How 'bout FroYo, does audio work in it?

You didn't follow the directions in the first post.

Re-read step #3.

You don't need F22's rootfs. I include one in the build, from the autobuild service from Feb 24th (as is clearly stated in the first post). The user more than likely didn't follow the rel_path step properly, or at all. This error is spat out if you don't do rel_path correctly (or at all, if it's in a folder).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] the show stopper:
thanx i will give it a try and see what happens...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oy, read what I posted. You don't need F22's rootfs, at all... Sure if you want to, have at it. But I seriously doubt that's your problem, as I do include a rootfs in the bundle.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] scooper:
If you look at my sig, that's what I've been using for the last few months. Since that combination worked good for me, I didn't bother to try any other new things until something like BT or GPS being added. Or whenever you update your first post that is. Never had this problem before. I have had some rare SODs but nothing was broken after reset.

Update: Okay, there's sound but it doesn't go through the speaker. If I plug in the headset before playing something, no sound. But if I play something and plug in the headset after, I can hear the sound.

Oh okay. I thought that file was missing so why I said that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] scooper:
Hey, my problem is solved.

I think all sounds were routed to the headset. When I plugged in the headset after I played something, I could hear it. When I plugged in the headset before I played something, I said I couldn't hear anything but that was because it routed to the speaker and the volume was really low, which I found out the second time trying it. To make sure, I went into volume setting and turned it all the way up. When I changed the volume setting, it routed back to the headset like it should.

After that, I unplugged the headset, tried again and it worked.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I assume you mean thru the extUSB dongle? Glad to hear it's fixed tho, I've heard of people having this issue on WinMo - where WinMo *thinks* a headset is plugged in, when it's really not.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] scooper:
Yeah, extUSB. At first, that was what I thought as well but heard nothing from the headset after plugging in. It seemed to do the opposite and almost couldn't hear when routed to the speaker. And I'm not even sure the sound was from the speaker. I used the hardware buttons to turn up the volume but didn't change the loudness.

And for the information, I did play around with the hardware volume but it didn't do anything. I had to go into the software volume setting, changed the loudness, and that did the trick.

accelerometer issue

OK so here is the issue I'm having...

I have this pack installed on my Tilt2 and everything is work great except for the accelerometer is configured wrong.

When I hold the phone upright is shows to the right and as I rotate it always stays to the right of how I hold the phone also on a side note games are working under the same pretense I have to hold it sideways to get the same results as if I were holding it strait.

Please Help at a loss

thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Just curious, was this a startup.txt you got from the bundle? I've tried to groom all the startup.txt's so they're correct, if there is one that is not let me know and I'll fix it for the next release.

Glad it's workin for you now tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Tippfehler:
Try gsensor_axis=2,1,3 instead of that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
is there somewhere the option to calibrate the gsensor within Android?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Shouldn't be any need to calibrate the g-sensor. It provides data, we interpret it.

AT&T Tilt 2 Running XDANDROID 2.3 from this Thread
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Known issue, I thought it was documented (might be in manekineko's thread).

Either way, it's an issue with HQ videos. There's some fixes in the works, but in the meantime just use SD. They work great for me...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SpoiledK:
just installed this ROM...very fast and somewhat stable...whenever i try to use the browser and start to enter something in (both keyboard and soft keys), it would freeze and reboot...I've tried many different kernels...any suggestions..?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Ah, I thought I listed this caveat in the first post or two...

Kinda silly, but here's what is going on - no location services, and Google tries to call them. It blows up the phone when this happens...

So don't use the stock browser. I think there's some way you can alter the system image (IE pulling libgps) but downloading an alternate browser (I like Dolphin Mini) from the Market is easier IMHO.

Edit - I lied, it wasn't in the caveat list. I just added it ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SpoiledK:
Cool, will do... thanks dude...

sorry if this is not the place to ask.....

......im having problems playing videos..I try to use the apps Movie Stream,Tv Show stream, everything works except when I click a link to play the video. When I click a link it starts to load but then the screen just stays white. im wondering whats up?? I know videos from YouTube dont work and im wondering if it has to do with the same thing...thnx for any help in advance :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sounds like the same issue. AFAIK, hyc said that there was basically a limit on what our phones can handle on Android, which for whatever reason is lower than what WinMo can handle. It seems to be a combination of resolution of the video, and with it total bandwidth the video uses.

Never heard of that. I guess (soft) reset the phone and if it's still broken, try a new data.img. Just rename the old data.img if you want to be able to revert to it.

Verizon CDMA

OK so my Tilt2 is on the "soon to be end of life" so I got my hands on a Verizon touch pro 2 from my uncle that works at Microsoft, so the phone is unlocked so my AT&T SIM works just would like to know what is the best xdandroid option?

Thanks for all the great help guys!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
It's all the same... We not only support all RHOD's, but we support RAPH, DIAM, TOPA BLAC and somewhat KOVS. All with the same kernel, rootfs, etc.

Did you even try it? lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jknoke83:
yeah looks like I need to just make the small adjustments to the startup.txt so the keyboard work right.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] GSM4ever:
Okay I have no clue what happened, but android started, when it got to the homescreen it went black and then when I turned it on, it went right back to wm. I hard reseted and now my pc wont find my phone at all.. -.-
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Resets to WinMo happen.

Hard reset... has nothing to do with us. That's a WinMo issue, especially if the PC doesn't recognize the phone in WinMo. I'd be leaning towards a hardware issue in WinMo, but you've been pretty scant in your description.

Please, be more verbose so I can help you better...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] GSM4ever:
Well.. what do you need to know? I mean I installed the Android and then I pushed the home button, and then it just went black.

I restarted the phone and it popped up with Windows Mobile.

After that I hooked up my phone to try to get another zimage or rootfts (or whatever that is F22's) and my computer won't recognize it.

My phone just pops up with "using the phone the active sync way, disk drive, or internet sharing." :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well it sounds like your phone recognized that a computer connected to it - did you choose disk drive? Nothing happens on your PC?

Again, this sounds like a WinMo issue. You can always pull the SD and throw it in some sort of a card reader...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] GSM4ever:
Okay wait all I had to do was restart my laptop Lol, um now I need help.. where do I be able to view my sd card? It seems like I need to format it apparently, so what do I use to do that and how do I get my contacts back
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Are you talking about in WinMo?

This forum isn't about WinMo, it's about Android.

I don't see what formatting the card or your contacts have to do with anything...

If you mean in Android, there's an FAQ on the first post (linked like 15x) that tells you how to deal with contacts (hint: easiest way is using Google Sync).

As for viewing your SD card, again I'm going to assume Android. Astro is a pretty good file manager, or there's DroidExplorer/adb. Again, in the FAQ.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] GSM4ever:
O.o Thanks man

Rhod500

question about the Verizon verzion... I have the sim unlocked but it wont let me use SIM in xdandroid does this have to do with the startup.txt?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Verizon doesn't use SIM cards... they're CDMA, so no SIM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jknoke83:
I know this, Verizon service doesn't use SIM card's however there world phone's do have SIM card slots for the Vodafone SIM card. I have AT&T and my phone is unlocked to accept SIM's from other carriers so on that matter my phone works with AT&T in GSM mode. I would like to know the best route for access to the SIM card on the Rhod500 in XDANDROID.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Ah, probably should've mentioned that in your previous post.

force_cdma=0 in the startup.txt is all you need. If you already have a force_cdma entry, make sure it =0.

Crashes during charging process

Have any people been experiencing problems with Android freezing when you take the phone off charge, or sometimes if you leave it charging too long? It didn't use to happen but now it's happening quite often. Sometimes it doesn't fully crash but goes into a suspended mode, where I can wake the phone up by opening the keyboard. But most times it fully crashes which sucks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Which kernel are you on?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dekoning:
Sorry to be asking this here, but i don't wanna F my phone up.

so, I've read the FAQ topic, as stated in the 'manual from 1st post in topic' to find my device .. and seriously it says: HERO100. And I'm 100% sure I've got a touch pro 2.

Any dutch fellows here, that know what device kpn/hi gave out? thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Should be RHOD100. I seriously doubt is says Hero :p. I guess it's possible there's something else on the phone that has a model number similar..

But I can almost guarantee it's RHOD100. Oh, and it won't F up your phone if you pick the wrong one - this isn't like flashing the device. It just means some crap might not work right like the keyboard.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dekoning:
I'm not joking, haha! I've had it repaired though, .. didn't even check then as i did not know it was there.

But it seriously says HERO100. Ill post a picture, haha.

I was wanting to do a HARDSPL unlock, but reading some of the posts .. this is going to be a funny unlock; as it is a rhodium .. but the sticker (probably the motherboard) is from a hero100 ..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] danstheman7:
Alright, I got this to boot and everything.

How do i add market (vending.apk) because of how this is set up?

Where do I place it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Huh? What do you mean?

The Market is included. Not sure why it doesn't show for everyone on first boot - if you can't manually add it to a desktop as a shortcut, reboot and it should pop up correctly. For whatever reason this issue plagues GingerBread, never had a report of this on FroYo, but lots of reports about this on GB...

As stated previously (and by others) that's a RHOD100. You'll just need to sort out the keyboard, which UK is the most popular of the 100's AFAIK.

no data signal / animated wallpaper support

awesome stuff :)

i am having a problem though connecting to cell networks... i can place calls on windows mobile version but this gingerbread build wont uncheck 'airplane mode'

also would be great if it could support animated wallpapers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
If you have a SIM card and it's a CDMA device you have to remove the SIM.

Live Wallpapers just made a slow device painfully slow. A lot of people complained about how awful they were, so we removed them and get a lot less complaints from people asking how to get them to work...

So you can try to get Live Wallpapers to work on your own, but if you do it'll just slow the phone to a crawl...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] chrislhawkes:
NICE... :)

thanks arrrghhh, worked like a charm :)

and thanks for the info on the live wallpapers... if it makes it really slow its not worth it.

i do have one more question though, i tried looking through some of the pages in this thread but couldn't find any related posts... is there a way to enable the headphone jack? if i can get that to work i'd be stoked :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] chrislhawkes:
sorry for the constant questions... but i love this rom :P

hi, i was just curious if there also was a way to re-enable data after placing/accepting a call without resetting the phone? i tired turning data options off & back on through the setting panel however i could not get it to reconnect to data without physically resetting the phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
3.5mm is functional, grab the latest kernel.

See Incremental Updates...

Toggle airplane mode on/off?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] chrislhawkes:
ya, should have mentioned i tired that too ;P

LOL, ya turning airplane mode on and off was one of the first things i tried... i tried it from the settings panel 2 or 3 times as well as through the option you get when you hold down the power key. not sure of another area i can toggle flight mode unless i get a widget for it - i have a few of those so ill give it a try right now

its not a real big deal, just a pain sometimes to reset the phone and re-access haret to get back into android.

anyways, i like the rom :) thanks again for your help. im with sprint and have a really old plan and they want me to upgrade to use a droid phone (even though i have unlimited data), no need to upgrade now ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Ah, that's right... toggling airplane mode on/off didn't work without hyc's RIL work. Hopefully there will be a new build of GB, with this fixed! The data flaking out issue isn't (I don't think) but flipping airplane mode on/off fixes it with this new RIL :D.
