[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ThrottleAbuse:
I didn't realize you could skip all the stuff in the middle if you want. So I started with the fresh FRX06 build. Set the APN. Then shutdown the phone. Put the new froyo.user.conf file in. Added the newest F22 rootfs with the RIL updates along with some newer kernels and ran haret. Then I was finally able to send a MMS!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This stuff is for testing. It's not always easily implemented... In the future, let's leave any testing poop out of the build threads, k? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pitflyer:
I posted this issue a while ago, then got side tracked. Finally went back to my old TP2 and started from scratch on a fresh FRX06 build on a freshly formatted SD card, with Development.apk and SpareParts.apk copied into AndroidApps, and I see both of those icons on my phone.

However, when I click Dev Tools - there is no Terminal Emulator listed -- which is where I believe I saw it before. Spare Parts doesn't have that option either. Since this built should have 'superuser' enabled, why don't I see Terminal Emulator in Dev Tools? Or is it somewhere else?

(I need Terminal Emulator since I have a RHOD210 which has a wifi issue - so I use that to overwrite wifi-nvram.txt with a correct one, which will allow me to connect to the network-- as I don't have data service otherwise)

Thanks for any tips.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well for one, you can do the wifi-nvram trick semi-automatically - just put the file on your SD card and symlink (ln -s) it to the correct location in /data. Then even if you blow out your data.img, the 'fix' is always redone.

As for terminal emulator, I prefer ConnectBot - you can connect to a local root terminal as well as ssh to a remote machine. When we moved away from the engineering builds, those apps were pulled, but for some reason the one that is included in AndroidApps doesn't have the terminal emulator. Never really tried to find another Development.apk that does include it ;).

Thanks helicopter88

Not quite sure how I got it to work, but it did.

I managed to install TopoResize using WINE 9Crossover did not work), and after fumbling around as it would not boot in the normal way I some how managed to resize the img file. Seems to work fine.

PS: Most of the links on the link and when Googling do not work, soi it takes a bit of searching.

Many thanks.

arrrghhh

You are close to the developers... What is the chance of the new 07 and Gingerbread, etc coming out with a larger data.img as default? 256M is quite small. I have very little actually running and it soon filled up. I it a problem? Just a suggestion/thought.

Cheers

Jonners
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] helicopter88:
You're welcome,changing data.img size by default would mean a change in rootfs(correct me if i'm wrong)

I guess that is 256 because not everyone needs more than it and enough space free..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] teemo:
How do you manage to fill data.img with very little?

I have a lot in the image, yet still 128M free :D

Prefer a small image as standard. As I understand it is quite easy to create a bigger img.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
Pretty sure that if you ever migrate to a NAND build there will only be about 256MB available for /data there. It's probably better not to let people get used to large data on sdcard, if it's going to have to shrink back down to 256MB in the long run.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
Am I being out voted?!?!?!?!

OK, as is quoted to me often on this Thread - "I prefer choice" - what if and is it possible to allow in the install or at some stage an option within to expand data, without all the palaver? Only a suggestion guys. We are not all using the devises the same......;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
HD2 folk offer different data.img sizes right off the bat, maybe I could do something like that.

But I have a ton of apps installed, and still have plenty of space. I don't know how people run out of space :p.

However, what about people who have 512mb cards? If I forced a larger data.img, they wouldn't be able to use the port at all, whatsoever. Expanding it isn't that hard, I think you made it a lot more difficult than it needed to be lol ;).

hyc's points earlier are pretty valid too, we're not going to have a ton of space when we go NAND... might as well get used to it now!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pitflyer:
But how would I create that sym link without a Terminal Emulator in the first place? Can't create the sym link in my Windows host on the FAT32 SD card.

I will try to rip the ConnectBot apk from another Android device and install it to my TP2 and see if that lets me access it. I tried the Gingerbread build last night; that one shows 'Terminal Emulator' under 'Dev Tools' -- but it crashes every time I load it. But that one I'll report under that thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CosmicBlue2000:
Just put it this way:

1. basic download: alle needed files except data.img.

2. data.img download: choose between...hm, don't know, let's say 256, 512, 1024 and 2048MB...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
My vote is going down the toilet here, isn't it?!?!:eek:

Maybe it is the way mine has built, but I have moved all apps to the SD Card using the Titanium Backup, which I believe puts the apps outside the data.img(?). Most of the apps came with the build, I have added on top:

Shootme

Dropbox

File Explorer

WiFi File Explorer

CoPilot

ClockSync

Skype

3CX

Scan Bizcard

Docs

Tape-a-talk

Ultimate Stopwatch

Barcode scanner

Linked In

TrainTimes

BA

Currency Converter

Office Suite

5 x games#

And I have 4 eMail accounts to manage with 2 Calendars and contacts.

It is much the same as my WM (similar apps), but that is done on the phone within c150Mg

I have a 15Gb SD Card, seems a waste not to have access to it.

PS: Since increasing the data.img size the phone keeps loosing signal ("No Network"). I try going in to Airplane mode via Settings, but it will not let me. I try via the on/off button and it sometimes does - but does not show in Settings as on. End up rebooting. 3 x today?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
With ConnectBot or ADB...

Well I might provide alternate data.img's, however I refuse to change the way the default one is built. I am not going to break everyone that has a 512mb card because the data.img it's trying to create is a freakin gig.

Completely unrelated. Triage the remainder of what horrors you've done.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pitflyer:
Tried ConnectBot. It crashes whenever I try to open a session. Followed these steps

1) HP USB Format USB Drive

2) Copy fresh FRX06 file with Connectbot.apk in AndroidApps dir

3) Boot and see connectbot go through initial screens

4) Use 'local' and create a profile me

5) Have it crash every time
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Uhm... why aren't you installing ConnectBot from the Market?

I have no clue where the APK you got is coming from. Could be bunk, all I know is ConnectBot works great for me and anyone who has downloaded it from the Market :p.

Not sure if it matters, I named the profile root. Not sure that it does matter, I think it's purely a cosmetic name within ConnectBot.

Edit - yup, name doesn't matter. Just make sure you select local.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pitflyer:
Don't have access to Market.. don't have access to ANY network resources yet.. my phone has data plan. And due to wifi error can't connect to network at all.

I downloaded ConnectBot from Market on my Vibrant yesterday, used Astro to back up the APK and then copied it manually to my SD Card.

Rebooted and tried again and it worked. Hate for the answer to be 'Windows like' reboot... but hey.. it worked.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yea, never a great answer... but you should also never argue when it works. Glad it is workin for ya ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] emanuelrv:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
Since reloading the bundle at the beginning of this thread, I now get a lot of freezing, as in I can`t complete anything. Shame as I thought I had finally got on top of it:(

Any ideas? should I upgrade Kernel?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Eh I guess you can try it.

Honestly the first thing I would try is a different SD card and see if the issues persist. If they do, it's the build setup. If they don't... well it's obviously the card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] GSM4ever:
Hey argghh if my data connection is not connecting, so I can get the appropriate applications in the market. What should I do?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Uhm, with such little info I have no clue what to tell you.

Use wifi I guess? I'd need a lot more info to help get your data cxn working.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rtrip:
We're going Nand, that's awesome!

I've been using straight FRX06 for a few weeks now. Other than a wonky battery indicator, low mem reboots, and not so great wifi... it works fine. I'd love to get the updated package on nand, and keep my tp2 forevah!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gallahad2000:
Sounds like it's not working with FRX06.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I think this app *should* work, but perhaps you should download it from the Market instead of using an APK.

I also remember seeing posts on this app. I think even if you do get it installed, the app doesn't work properly - IIRC it doesn't hear what you say to it (never used the app myself...)

Need moar info. I'd read the FAQ first tho. It's linked many times in the first post.

So... you can't go to the Market or you have no data cxn?

You have a data cxn in WinMo?

Are you GSM? If so, did you configure your APN?

You really need to provide more information, and be more thorough in your posts. You posted many, many times but didn't provide much in the way of information. Please try to be more diligent.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
Tried a different formatted sd card and had no luck:confused: just the same as before.

Fitted old card back in and all working fine again:D

except have lost ringtones:(

Thanks again for your help, fingers crossed it stays working and I can sort out ringtones
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oy.

As always, full format with HP Tool fixes the no ringtone issue. Backup the whole card, format, restore data, ringtones should work again.

Can't type Asian languages

There is no Asian languages ( Chinese, Janpanese ...) in the Imput Languages:

Setting-> Language & Keyboard -> Android Keyboard Settings -> Input Languages

And can't type any Asian languages in FRX06
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Isn't that what the physical keyboard is for? :p

Seriously tho, you probably just have to add them. We try to support everything/everyone, but it's impossible to support it all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Moskus:
Ah, good to know that it is actually possible... :)

I hope there's an easier fix in the works. ;)

But I've hit a little snag: I added the commando line "physkeyboard=RHOD100_nordic" to startup.txt, and it worked well; I can now use the norwegian special characters! :)

But I also get a small software keyboard in the top right of the screen. And I can't move it. It's on top of Android in a way. I'm sure it is me that is doing something wrong. But what?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Did you remove this command while you were mucking in the startup.txt?

msmvkeyb_toggle=off
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Moskus:
No, it turns out I'm a bigger idiot than that. :rolleyes:

I didn't see that there was actually a hardware map assigned earlier. I removed the UK map and now everything is dandy!

But thanks alot for your help and for letting me run Android on my TP2! :) :) :)

Do you think I need to install an updated Kernel/rootfs????

I have this since on Notifications and Alarms, though I managed to get a couple up in Alarm. I was advised to reformat the Card too but since doing that and updating the kernal and rootfs yesterday I have lost them all again, and this time they will not return whatever I do

jonners59 posted; PS: First check what is in a folder called Media...

Also check settings and sound....

Also go into MUSIC and look for the items that you want as ringtones. Hold your finger on them and a new menu comes up. Select use as ringtone... Do this for all those you might consited as ringtones and finish on your favourite.

When next you go in to notifications and ringtones all those selected should be listed.

lotusfrontera; Glad to say that last paragraph worked a treat BIG CHEERS. Didn`t have to reformat sd card. Just did has you posted and it worked.:cool:

All seems to be working fine now thanks. So thanks to jonners59 & arrrghhh for all their time and input.

Google Maps Issue

When starting Google Maps in portrait mode, then going to landscape mode, the display gets all jacked up and garbled. The same happens when you start in landscape and go to portrait.

Is it jut me? :confused:

I certainly don't have that issue. What device?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pdawg17:

Same on rhod100 gsm.

Uninstall latest update and it will be good again.

I am on unsuported kernel though...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zengyee:
I resolved the Chinese Input issue on my phone:)

The root cause is: Google Pinyin IME doesn't work. (hope it would be fixed in FRX07)

I installed a new Google Pinyin IME from Android Market.

Disable all of existing IMEs (Existing Google Pinyin IME, Android Keyboard and Japannese IME)

Enable the new installed Google Pinyin IME

I can type Chinese on FRX06 now!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hum, I'm glad you fixed it but I don't think this can be fixed globally. Not everyone speaks Chinese after all ;).

Odd guys, I guess I'm not on the newest version of Google Maps :confused:

This looks like it would be amazing if I could find the the framework-res.apk on the android port.

I got all the way to the upload file part of that link and couldnt do anything.

I uploaded a framework fiel I found on a different thread but when I tried to install it it said there was an issue with the apk and wouldnt let me open it.

has anyone figured this out yet?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
It's inside system.ext2 - it's easiest to copy it off of a running phone via ADB.

"adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk ./framework-res.apk" would do it I think.

Ok so I downloaded the Droid explorer onto 3 different computers, an xp, a vista, and a windows 7.

It did not work whatso ever on vista, (64 bit)

It worked best on the xp out of all 3, but the process only goes far enough to say "select device" at the beginning of it, and my phone is on usb debug but it isnt getting recognized.

Does anyone know what to do about this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Did you bother clicking on the Windows How-To link....? Re-read the FAQ please.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] aedon:
I did read it, and I already used PDANet, my computer has the drivers, thats not the issue.

The problem is that I cant get the droid explorer to work
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Christiaan91:
I remember that i downloaded HTC sync also. Maybe it gives you the right drivers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Then you've done something wrong. Can you see the device with adb devices? You're convinced you have the drivers, but have no clue why it's not working... Try different usb ports, maybe a different cable... I don't know. PDA.net always gets the driver workin for me, and then Droid Explorer "just works". Unless you skipped a step or something, I don't know. I've gotten Droid Explorer to work on XP, Vista and 7 - on many different occasions.

PDA.net should give the necessary drivers.

Not dialling

Hi guys

I am running in to a few problems and need some help, please.

After trying a different kernel and reverting back and increasing the size of the data.img to 1G after running out of space, I noticed some problems starting to occur, though I do not think they are related to my previous actions.

1. I found that apps needing updates would not install. I fixed this by un-installing via Titanium Backup and the re-installing via Market Place, though one app I can't do this as it, for some reason is not listed in the Titanium Backup list of apps.... :confused:

These are the real issues.

2. I find that when I call someone,

sometimes

it dials but the call does not go anywhere. It just says Dialling and there is a hiss in the background. I then try cancelling the call. The phone says Hanging Up, but does not. It stays in this state until reboot. Whilst this is going on, there is data and I can send and receive eMails.

3. I often find the phone goes in to reboot. Sometimes in a call, but most often after I have left it when I return it is in either the Windows or XDANROID SIM login screen.

4. I try and put the phone in to Aeroplane mode so that I may be able to resolve 2 above or to get network (it says there is no network in places where I know there is). If I select via Settings>Network, it does not accept the setting. If I select via the on/off button, it does sometimes, but this does not show up on the Settings>Network setting, nor the icon. If I reboot, the phone starts in Aeroplane mode, coming out after entering the SIM PIN.

Bar item 4 above. These things have appeared in all rebuilds and upgrades I have done at some point and on 3 different phones.

If there are ideas for fixes, please share. If these are bugs, I hope the info is of use...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Seems like most of your issues are RIL related. Can't say for sure, but have you tried that new gem?

As for the Market issues, I'd say you need to try a new data.img :p.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:

The phone has been showing the linux loading screen (the code flying by) for 20 mins+

Any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Endless boot animation, or flying text?

Sounds like flying text. I'm betting you skipped the ts-calibration step... Re-read the first post please. Focus on step #4.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
Thanks arrrghhh

I followed the link and instructions, putting the zip - rootnew.zip in to the root of the SD Card and extracted the contents of the other zip - ril2-d01e7f8.zip in to Android folder..

I then tried to run the commands as instructed:

# cd /
# mount -o remount,rw /
# rm -rf .git
# mv init.android init.android.BAK
# unzip /sdcard/rootnew.zip
# chmod 755 init.android init.etc/ppp/ip-*-*
# mount -o remount,ro /

The commands would not run, so I extracted the contents of the zip file in to the root of the card and rebooted.

The phone is currently working, but I am concerned that the cmd did not work. I'll keep an eye and feed back any issues.

The best

I got it working on my windows 7.

I had to uninstall droid exploer and reinstall it. (Droid exploer would give an error message when opening on my win7 computer. Installing it was the issue)

Then I had to uninstall the drivers for the phone and reinstall them in a different usb port with pdanet again because droid exploer wasnt recognizing it. (I know I had the drivers because when I plugged it in the computer recognized it as an android platfrom in the device manager rather then an xda interface)

My device is now registered as " 0000000000 " on droid exploer but it works now so I dont care.
