New RIL for airplane mode and kernel for 3.5 capabilities

thanks arrrghhh,

is the new RIL for airplane mode and kernel for 3.5 capabilities not in the latest GB bundle? i downloaded and ran 'GBX0A_Full_Bundle_11.3.2011.zip', is there a newer version with these builds already installed or do i need to mod them myself?

im a bit of a ADB/XDA newb (and the only kernel i know how to deal with sells fried chicken)... i tried looking through some of the posts on this thread and couldnt find any topics about the fix for airplane mode, do you or anyone else in this thread know where i can get info on that fix? that would be stellar :)

i can live with using my usb adapter for audio if i cant figure out the kernel fix but being able to toggle the data back on without resetting would make my weekend
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
RIL thread - give it a shot if you want, but the next GB build will have it implemented for you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] randomblame:
From all the recent commit logs I think a gbx01 build is coming soon :D

Smell that? Mmmmm gingerbread!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
GBX0A is from March, which should be obvious from the datestamp in its name. In development terms, it's totally ancient.

As randomblame noted, it seems like there's a lot of work going on in the gingerbread build tree right now. I'd leave all this alone and wait'n'see...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vagabond1:
I have a (hopefully) simple problem I hope someone can help me with. Every now and then, when I slide the physical keyboard out, the screen turns black with a backlight on, in the middle of a program. I can still tap on things on screen and feel the haptic feedback, hear audible feedback and my notification tones, and everything, but the screen just turns completely black and nothing short of a power cycle restores it. Does anyone have any clue as to what is wrong with my setup?

Also, I'm trying to test the camera but it comes back with a "You must insert SD Card before using camera" error. Am I doing it wrong?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
First, update to the newest stuff. See Incremental Updates.

Second, why are you sliding the keyboard out without turning on the phone first? I'm not aware of that being a bug, but it seems odd that you would slide the kb out before turning it on... SoD's still will happen on this build tho. Doesn't have the new RIL or any of the newer improvements FRX07 has.

As for the cam/SD card working, you need to format your card using the HP Tool. Full format, FAT32. Feel free to backup all the data on the card & restore, or start fresh. Your choice.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] vagabond1:
A soft-reboot re-enabled the camera. Sorry.

The phone is on, and say if i'm inputting text into a field, i would click the field then slide the keyboard out. Occasionally, it would black screen.

I will just wait until the new Gingerbread release. Thank you so much for the effort!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oh, that was probably just slowness... Not sure what else to chalk that issue up to. If you wait or slide the phone back does it ever return? Does this happen in WinMo or on any other build? I'm wondering if you have a hardware issue actually...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] dadaR6:
I dont know if it applies to real Android phone, but this is the default behavior on WinMo. Open your keyboard while the phone is sleeping, and it wakes up the phone/screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This isn't WinMo. We're not trying to mimic WinMo in any way shape or form.

Thanks a lot, Calibration file was a savior for me as my TP2 dose not have touch at all

(No digitizer, and I need one desperately. Can anyone ship it to India, that would be a great help. I'll pay off-course :-) )

I am working on remapping few key to get around every menu, submenu and softkeys, bluetooth connectivity and WIFI as it is not working on my device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I'd imagine Android would be pretty difficult to use without a digitizer....

BT doesn't work on this build... on FRX07 it does, but not on GB. Not yet at least.

WiFi should work, but some people have to jump through some hoops to get it to work. If WiFi's never worked for you, try that fix. It's in the FAQ....

Working on Keyboard based Win MO/Android for broken devices

Yeah, earlier it was , now I am habitual of it, soon I would be starting a thread helping others to use TP2 Win Mo and Android completely through keyboard. As i Have been using this broken device for past 1 year with problems but no fail.

No Problems Bro, you already did a great job, thanks again.

I would check in FAQ section, As wifi connects and disconnects immediately.

He i have no root acces with this release???

problems with titanium backup, sd-booster?

does anyone have solution?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This build is old, and doesn't include the SU app. You should have super-user (root) without allowing any apps to get it.

Make sure you let the phone settle out on first boot. I never had a problem with root/SU in GB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] championc:
I got hold of a spare microSD card so decided to give this a whirl. Any idea as to how long it may take until Bluetooth will be working on this ? It's just that I use BT with my Car Kit and it works fine on FRX07.

Are all resources being targetted at FRX07 rather than GBX0A ?

And is there any way to increase the font size of the on-screen keyboard ?

C
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
BT may work on this build with an updated kernel, but I'm not positive.

All resources are not being targeted on FroYo at all... most resources work on both if that's your question. There's actually been quite a bit of work on GB, especially in the GPS area. Next build should be great.

Increase font size of on-screen keyboard? What? Don't you have a RHOD? I thought the point of this phone was to avoid having to ever use horrible on-screen keyboards :p.

Seriously tho, if you have issues with the built-in keyboard replace it. Swype, SwiftKey, BetterKeyboard... there's a ton on the Market.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] championc:
As ever, thanks Arrrghhh

I'm using the latest rootfs and Kernels that I'm using on FRX07 but no joy here with BT on my RHOD100. I know it has the keyboard but I just never got into using it and seem to constantly use the on screen one. The on-screen keyboard in FRX07 is perfect but the letters are tiny in GBX0A.

I setup a new microSD with one Primary FAT32 partition and two Primary EXT2 partitions named system and data. I didn't create one for rootfs at all. I copied all the files from the full GBX0A zip file onto the microSD and allow the installation process to do it's stuff. So will here now be program and data in my EXT2 partitions or should I have done something differently ? Also, should I now be able to mount the phone as a USB memory card or should I have created a second FAT32 partition ?

C
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You basically illustrated why dedicated partitions are not supported... they're a pain :p. So I'm sorry, but XDAndroid as a project has chosen to officially support dedicated partitions. The rootfs technically supports it, but XDAndroid will not officially support it ;). If you get it to work, more power to ya!

I'm not sure why you're asking about BT on FRX07 in the thread for GB... but BT should work, devices can pair... but that's about it. Seems many things break it as well (Pandora, BT on in WinMo prior to booting, etc).

As to the question that does pertain to GB, what are you using for lcd.density in your startup.txt? I'm not sure why some people would get the tiny keyboard and others its fine... My on-screen kb is fine in GB. Just trying to figure out if there's anything different other than physical hardware.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] championc:
I used the same startup.txt in GBX0A that I used for FRX07. I am also using the same rootfs and kernels in GBX0A that I have in FRX07 on which BT is working so that's why I was referring to FRX07.

However, I just tried wi-fi last night and it wouldn't even find my (or any other local) AP's. Exiting from the wireless menu, my RHOD100 softbooted. I tried again this morning and the same thing happened so for now I'm going back to FRX07 :(

every time i try to run the HaRet.exe i get an error message saying " Cannot open script file\storage card\FRX07\default.txt

any ideas n why its not working?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
First, this thread isn't for FRX07. It's for GBX0A, or GingerBread.

Second, it sounds like you don't have a startup.txt file where you're running HaRET.exe from. Or perhaps you have a rel_path variable that's not valid?

Stuck in Airplane mode

Id like to be able to run this on my RHOD500...

Ok, so I've formatted my SD card and placed a fresh copy of this build on the root of the card. Booted up and first thing I did was go into Settings and Wireless & Networks. The phone is in Airplane Mode. When I select to uncheck it, it goes to "Enabling wireless connection..." and never completes that process. It's not locked up or anything. I can use the back key to get out of that and go back in, then it's just back to a normal check like it was before.

Turned on wifi and it successfully connected to my WPA network. Tried to turn on bluetooth, it said it was turning on, then went back to off and stayed there.

I tried to open the browser to test and make sure that the wifi actually worked. It successfully loaded the Google homepage and then promptly hard locked. No reboot. No response from any button or screen actions. I had to remove the battery.

I'd be glad to give you some logs if you could tell me how to go about doing that. (Sorry, I'm still very new to this.)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Please use the FroYo bundle. The GB bundle is horribly outdated, and a lot of these bugs are resolved.

Hoping to get a new GB build out soon, but it will take some time. Thanks for your patience.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SgtMac02:
I have been toying around with both versions of the Froyo bundle and thought I'd give this one a try. I didn't realize that it was so outdated. My thought process was that the GB is supposed to be the newer OS, but as soon as I saw your post I realized that it hasn't had anywhere near the amount of work done to it that has been done on FroYo. I'll go back to the 7.1 build and see if I can't get my issues resolved there. I just thought maybe if there were any useful bits of info to be gained from my problem I'd try to help provide any logs, but I'm guessing that you've probably already got the info you need for a lot of this stuff.

Thanks anyways for the quick reply. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
np, hoping to get a new version of this bundle out soon - there's been a lot of bug fixes on FroYo that need to be pushed to GB. In time!

i have been running this android room on my tp2 for about two months. sometimes i found i unable to exit from the camera mode after i have used it. and i have to remove the battery for the soft reset. did anyone of you have the problem?

another problem is recently i found all the programs which i installed into my memory card isn't work! when i checked the application setting of xdanroid, the program install in memory card shown nothing there!

did anyone of you have the same problem? how did you solve it?

thanks

garf
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This GB build is pretty outdated. You can try doing the whole Incremental Update dance, but honestly you should wait for the next GB release. Going to be drastically better...

In the meantime, FroYo is pretty stable.

Also, everything runs off the SD card. All Android knows is your SD card... so moving apps onto the card is useless. They're already there.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] the show stopper:
when is new update gonna be out ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
First rule of open source development: Never ask for an ETA.

It will be ready when it's ready. You can be sure there will be either a bump to this thread, or a completely new thread.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] garfchong:
but when i view the application setting, the phone memory is physically reducing when i install the program into phone memory...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yes, of course. It all goes into the data.img file... which is on *gasp*, your SD Card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] garfchong:
in other words, i still need to "move to memory" the apps that i have install in order to save phone memory. am i right?

thanks

garf
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well moving apps to the SD card probably won't work. You can expand your data.img if you wish...

That's too bad, because utilizing the same incremental updates side-by-side between a fresh install of Froyo, and a fresh install of Gingerbread on the RHOD300_Tilt2, Gingerbread clearly performs noticeably smoother and faster when moving around in the OS, and especially when opening and closing applications.

Its just no fun that GB reboots when you try to use Google Maps w/ GPS and also frequently has problems with WiFi enabled. I can't wait for the next GB build!

data on cdma-sprint

i know in the FAQ's it says that data on cdma is flacky on this build. however i cant even get data to work. i tried changing the line "force_cdma=1" to "force_cdma=0" and nothing happens..i have the lates rooft,image, and modules..what am i doing wrong..gb does seem more snappier,which i like.

im wondering for the people that are using it, about how many hours of battery are you guys getting?

thnx.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
My battery life is on-par with FroYo, but I haven't done a detailed side-by-side comparison.

Also, this build is ancient. Perhaps try on the stock rootfs and kernel that comes with this build? At this point, the stuff on the autobuild might not play nicely with this build because it's so much newer... I haven't run this version of GB in ages.

AFAIK it's still on 'fake GSM mode' for CDMA, hence the need for force_cdma=1. I don't know why you would change that to 0, that would indicate you're running in GSM mode...

I doubt you even have an APN menu... Maybe. Damn, just been too long.

Is your provider Sprint? It should "just work" with Sprint, but some providers require more setup to get going.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] coolwater22:
i know its an ancient build,but i just want to try a different build and see if i get more battery out of it.the frx7.1 is awsome but the battery is a killer for me :/(i still use it everyday though :D..)

i just change the data number to 0 to see if that would work,which it didnt,since using the "1" didnt work. yeah im using sprint as my provider.

it does have an apn menu on it,takes a bit of time to load,but it is there..

thnx arghhhh!

this is a great build, i prefer it to froyo 100%.. but for some reason on my 300/ tilt 2 after about 15 mins it wont wake up anymore. light stays orange and no response from any button. ive formatted my sd card and redone the install 3 times now. i wonder if it could be because im using my ts calibration file from the old froyo install? im lost i dont want to switch back to froyo since this runs so much smoother but im missing everyones call/txt as its frozen in my pocket and its getting irritating lol. awesome build though, i rly hope i can figure it out. suggestions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This build is ancient... really hoping to get something out soon. We're trying to sort out how we want to do the next release...

You on the newest rootfs/kernel? That would be the first place to start. ts-calibration is build-agnostic.

This build also predates hyc's RIL work. There was a TON of improvements in that department, especially related to SoD's.

Also, boot Android with WinMo in airplane mode. Always seems to help things along, but I don't think that'll fix this problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Andrew5000:
wow thank you for the quick response! so i updated the root/kernel about an hour ago and so far no lockup! it was doing it about every 10-15 mins before so i think that may have been the solution. if it fails again ill let u know, or just use froyo until a new GB is released.

thanks again for the help, everyone here is so helpful and knowledgeable it really makes me feel guilty im too broke to donate.. (4 kids, 2 cars lol). anyways keep up the awesome work and ill be holding my breath for a new GB release!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] detule:
It's under very active development, and my guess is, a release will happen sooner rather than later.

Having said that, you can always build the source that is in the gingerbread branch of the gitorious xdandroid repo -> most updates have been pushed and are available for public consumption, just not yet served on a platter.

I use an extension to monitor the kernel autobuilds, and I've been noticing a lot of updates on the .39 site. Is there any chance that means GBX01 will use a .39 kernel?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You can personally use whatever kernel you want. It's unlikely that GB will be 'preloaded' with .39, as it's a RHOD-only affair. We support many devices in XDAndroid...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
Just out of curiosity, what will the performance be compared to Froyo when this goes full release. I tried it a while back, but don't remember much about it. I read that someone was testing ICS on their phone and was experiencing a decent performance hit. Or are Froyo and Gingerbread similar enough that there won't be a hit/gain.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
GB feels a little snappier. Nothing significant tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
Alright, I appreciate it. Would you happen to know where GBX stand on coming out of alpha?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:

Not sure where I messed up

Installs perfect. However if I reboot phone it boots back to windows. There is no way to delete the windows and make it 100% android?

As far as buttons go, the home button doesnt work
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Uhm, you didn't mess up. This installs on the SD card. You haven't flashed anything, why did you think WinMo would magically be gone? Every action you performed was on your SD...

Anyhoo, home button works great. I assume you're on a 210, which is the ONLY RHOD with an actual 'home' button. Everyone else has a Win key there, so we made that button menu. The end button is home.

Edit - just realized this is the GB thread, which is pretty outdated, and probably doesn't have a home button. You can remap using Spare Parts, or better yet just update your rootfs. See the first post ;).
