[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ppcfly:
Hi guys... thanks so much for your hard work, arrgghh, highlander et al. I am super happy to have a workable Android on my phone... I have to live with this thing for another 14 months, and Android will make it doable for sure. I had Android on my original Touch and loved it, but was waiting for the camera issues to be worked out before trying it on the TP2.

I have FRX06 with kernel 20110502_232323 and cpu speed at 710 running smoothly so far. No SOD or other major issues, but I don't seem to be able to get "deep" sleep. My LED goes green for 20 seconds or so at a time, but then flashes orange for 5 seconds or so. GPS is off under "locations", but works ok (meaning very slow to lock) when it is enabled. I had this problem before I ever enabled GPS and with the 3 kernels I have tried. Any suggestions? Thanks again. Also, if this has been discussed ad nuseum previously, I apologize... I have searched, but the word "sleep" is a little too common to be a useful term.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well, the phone will still wake up occasionally to sync with various things. If you have NO apps installed, and the phone is in airplane mode, perhaps then it would stay a solid perfect green...

Otherwise, it's going to wake up at some intervals. It should be solid green the majority of the time tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ppcfly:
OK... for some reason, I thought it would be green closer to 90-95% of the time... right now, it is green more like 70% of the time. But that's normal? If so, great! I am super happy with it and plan to donate a few bucks when I get my next paycheck!

Out of curiousity, I put it in airplane mode (of course, I still have apps installed, but just a few beyond the ones that were bundled with it, kindle, fb, pandora, spare parts). It seems to be green closer to the 90% range.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yea, that's expected I'd say. The apps will still try to wake despite being in airplane mode - they just won't be able to do anything, so it'll go back to sleep quicker :p.

It's the tradeoff - background sync, or battery life... For me, the tradeoff isn't so bad. I'd rather hurt battery life a little bit and get updated on everything.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jesi.james:
Sorry for asking but I have no idea how to run that. Is there a command prompt somewhere? Do I add it to the startup.txt? Please bear with me, I'm not that familiar with this area of expertise. :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Delete the data.img then.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jesi.james:
That doesn't really answer my question though
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You don't seem capable, so that is the easier route. I'm sorry, if you can't use Google and find CyanogenMod wiki page on it, I really can't help you... It's not really part of our build...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] hl41:
I think you said that you're overclocking. I don't understand why it should matter but I definitely feel that overclocking leads to less solid green.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jokove:
WEird thing is happening

frx06 on tp2 has the known issue of WEP connection which should be fixed bi wifi-ace. and it's true i was able to do it via wifi-ace.

now the problem is with WPA/WPA-PSK. i can see the network, i put the network key like in WinMo. my wifi is on in winMo. i can read connecting, then authenticated, then obtaining an IP address and everything stops here(not the device) the connection procedure. my device is unable to get an IP under frx06, i tried gbx06 too and i got the same issue. the WEP connection went very smooth. what can i do???

any help is very appreciated

thx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
WEP works but WPA doesn't? That's a first.

I've never heard of that - does it work on an open network too? Are you testing this all thru the same AP?

You shouldn't need to have wifi on in WinMo to utilize wifi in Android...

Which kernel are you on? If you changed, did you make sure the modules match? Wifi would probably just fail outright if this was awry tho...

Hrm. Never heard of that issue before mate, you don't have any other sort of auth like mac-auth, etc? Is the network 'hidden'? This is strange, typically wifi either 'just works' or 'just fails' :p

I'd be curious if you tested WEP/WPA on the same AP. Also, have you tried the different security settings? IIRC, WPA2 with AES is the *most* secure - IE hardest to crack.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jokove:
i know it's very weird. i changed the network settings to wep or open, i get the same result i'm stuck on obtaining ip address. the router i'm using is Linksys. i did connect on another router with wep with no prob

i have the linksys at home so it's a shame. i really dono what to do

did not change the kernel or anything else
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You didn't really answer all my questions, but I guess I did ask quite a few...

At any rate, it seems like you were able to connect to a different router, just not the router at home - so you've gotta troubleshoot your router at home. If you can't even connect to your home router with NO security (IE open) then you've got issues. Get it connecting on an open network, then mess with WPA2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
There's a longstanding bug related to Android, WPA, and Linksys routers. The "fix" is to upgrade the firmware of the router.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1372
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Hrm, the bug makes me think that they're able to connect, just not browse... I have a Linksys router, but it's new(er). No probs here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
The behavior in that bug is getting a successful connection via wpa_supplicant, but failing to get an IP address from dhcp.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toadlife:
I had this happen the other day. I was all ready to blame our flaky wireless network at work, but ran a logcat and found the cause of the problem.

Open up a shell (either through adb on your computer or on your phone through "connectbot" or "terminal emulator") and type the following...

su
rm -f /data/misc/dhcp/*

dhcp keeps it's lease info in a file in that directory. Somehow the permissions are getting screwed up and dhcpd is unable to access the file. After you remove the file, dhcp will start working again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jokove:
thank u for the advice

i did like you said with connectbot (i think i did coz i'm not very much into prog)

i opened a shell and removed the file

rebooted and tried to connect to an open network

still no sucess i really wana make it work but dono what to do

i don't want to endup changing the router

any suggestion?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SUCCESSOR:
I recently installed this bundle, yesterday, and i am wondering where data is stored. is it on device memory or SD Card? i have well over 3gig available but i guess that is all null if it stores on device memory. i thought it would save to SD since it runs from there but my assumptions are probably entirely wrong.

any way the problem is i started messing with android and suddenly it says "Phone Storage space is running low"

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mrife:
I have two Linksys wireless routers. One is WEP. The other is WPA. When I have the problem of getting stuck on "Obtaining IP address " I unplug the router from the power and plug it back in. It usually works then, but only for a couple days. It might be a Linksys. My models are DI-624.

For WEP to work I had to use WIFI Ace and set it to OPEN. See: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=940126

I have both WPA and WEP working.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] toadlife:
You're going to need to take logs with logcat while wifi is attempting to connect.

Do the following:

Open connectbot again and type the following...

su
nohup logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt &

Back out of connectbot and try to connect to wifi. After it fails, go back into connectbot and type the following....

kill -9 $(pgrep "logcat")

This will stop logcat from dumping logs.

Now upload the file on your sdcard called "logcat.txt". (If it's not there, you did something wrong!)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You can try upgrading the firmware, as was suggested above.

Everything is on the SD, Android knows nothing of the internal storage.

All user data goes in the 'data.img' file - which by default is 256mb. However, there's ways to expand it if you find 256mb isn't enough.

You guys must install a lot of games, I have like 30+ apps and haven't come anywhere near 256mb lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SUCCESSOR:
now i am really confused. in WinMo it says i have 10 times the storage space Android says i have. does this setup section off a part of SD memory for "Device Memory" or something like that?

just read reply ^

i installed frozen bubble and angry birds(which didnt work) and a few other apps maybe 5. 256 would be pretty good maybe something went wrong. should i force it to make a new data.img? and by that i assume i just delete or rename the old one and boot haret... yes?

Sent from my MSM using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yes, deleting the data.img will cause another one to be created on boot - be warned, you'll lose any changes you made within Android.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bdk91:
Loving the latest build. No screens of death. Occasionally will get kicked out and the phone will reboot into WinMo, but at least I'm not carrying around a dead phone without knowing it. I used to experience screens of death pretty frequently until I turned off GPS. Great work guys!

FYI, based on that model number, I think you have D-Link routers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Avatar28:
Is there any way to access recovery mode in XDAndroid to run the fixpermissions script? I've been searching without much luck for the last 45 minutes. I'm trying to avoid simply blowing away my data.img yet again. Android.apk (i think that's what it is) force closes as soon as it reaches my home screen, reopens, force closes again, etc.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rpierce99:
you can run the script using adb
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Stupid question! How do you unplug android side of phone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
Something for arrrghhh and other developers

Guys, I do not know if this info is of ANY interest or value, but you may recall all my issues and that I dropped my TP2 which did not bounce very well!

My new one has arrived. I inserted the SDCard and found my Haret and clicked it. It started Fryo and it (almost) worked perfectly.

I have NONE of the issue I had before. It does not freeze, get hot it's great... Why the difference??

They are both Rhod100. The new was from Hong Kong The old was from Vodafone and of course had it's build Is this of any value to you?

I do have 2 issues you may be able to help me with.

The eMail accounts are there but they are not updating. They show all the old eMails and do nothing

The Market app. I have tried to install a couple and update a couple of apps. It seems to stop on "Starting Download" and goes no further.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Old phone might've had a hardware issue? I think that's obvious.

For the Market, you can try clearing the Market cache (in the menu). For email accounts, you need to provide more info - is it a GMail account or an Exchange account...?

Unplug Android side of phone... what!?!?

Are you asking how to get back to WinMo? Hit the reset pin, pull the battery... The shutdown command sometimes works, sometimes just restarts. What do you want to do, your question makes no sense. Android is installed and runs entirely off of the SD card - that's all the Android knows, the SD card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
The reason Arrrghhh is because I'm trying not to lose another SD card, you know how if you pull a flash drive out without shutting it down it can crash and lose all your precious data. I thought maybe that's what happened. That's all Arrrghh. That's why I said, "Stupid question".

Now you see everyone Arrrghhh gave me one of his tough love answers but I didn't mind because I needed an answer!

Again thanks Arrrghh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Not sure I answered your question, but do not pull the SD card while in Android. It needs that to run :p.

If you want to pull the SD card, either turn the phone off or boot back to WinMo. You can safely remove the card either way.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Avatar28:
No I can't. USB Debugging wasn't enabled. I can't even get into it at all now. Just hangs on the XDAndroid splash screen. :-( Guess I will kill it all again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Thanks what's the best size and kind(speed and name) of sd card to buy?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] reeshmd23:
whats the best version of swype texting to use on this one?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
It may have, but I don't think so. It worked fine in WM... Anyway, it is dead now and I spoke too soon.... See foot.

OK did that and it cleared the problem, but made it worse. I then had apps icons on the desktop that it said were not installed. Apps in the Downloaded that were either listed as installed but were not visible on the phone in the normal places, and all sorts.

I think the best thing for me here is to not tamper, as I do not know what I am doing. Make a list of all the apps, and delete everything and then wait for 07 to arrive. The next question is HOW do I remove everything to start from scratch?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Avatar28:
Delete the data.img file from your SD card. Or if you want to really start over, just reformat your card and copy all new stuff once 07 is out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jokove:
is there any way to make the TV OUT work?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] helicopter88:
You should fix it in the kernel,I think that's a low priority bug and it will be solved once all the big bugs are sorted out..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Well name-brands are usually best - I like Sandisk, Kingston. Seems C4 is the sweet spot - Class 6+ cards have reported issues. C10 especially - stay away from those. So long as it fits your phone (don't buy SDXC or something like that) then it's fine. 32gb is the biggest size SDHC card AFAIK, so that's the biggest card you can buy.

Don't you have a TP2 for the physical keyboard? lol. I don't know, I thought there was only one swype app...? Or are you asking for a comparison? This probably doesn't belong here - do a search, there's probably another thread discussing the topic. If there isn't create one! But do search before hitting new thread...

As helicopter88 said, it's not exactly a priority. There's still basic stuff missing like the prox sensor & the 3.5mm jack for RHOD400/500.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gallahad2000:
I put swype beta on but it was buggy. FlexT9 works great with swipe, handwriting and voice recognition as well as autocorrect. The voice recognition works great for phone numbers (it can get confused with sentences) and the autocorrect is very user friendly. The program is $4.99 on the market but I picked it up for free when it was amazon's free app of the day.

I was thinking of cleaning the SD Card, but can't reformat it as I have my WM stuff on their too.... If I screen shot, can you/anyone tell me what should delete????
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Christiaan91:
We can always give it a try
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Just delete the data.img, that's basically starting over - unless you did any modifications to the system et al, then removing the data.img will start over at square 1 (from a user standpoint).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
Hi Guys,

Have just installed this bundle on my touch pro 2. Followed your instructions and all went well. This is good for me because I`m a real amateur at this.So thanks for all your hard work on this project. you deserve a medal.

Now I wonder if you could help me, I can`t get any Data connections, google, skype internet etc unless I tick the WIFI box?? any ideas.

I also cannot forward text messages.

cheers,

Dave.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ppcfly:
Did you remove the SIM card from beneath the battery? The white card under the battery needs to come out of a Sprint Rhodium (TP2) before data or phone will work...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Need more details. Which Rhodium model, which service provider?

Post your radio logcat with timestamps please?

As said above - owners of CDMA RHODs (Sprint/Verizon) need to remove the SIM.

If you own a GSM RHOD, something is weird with your provider. The new RIL coming in FRX07 (you can install it on FRX06 with some work - but expect that you will need to provide MUCH more detailed trouble reports when using that RIL than your last post.) might help you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
Answer to PPCfly;

Yep did that, phone works I can send and receive calls and texts but cannot get onto internet or use data services like Skype.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
All the above are forum links, no pics?

Mine looks like the Amazon one advertised, and its got Vodafone across the bottom just above keys.

Its on Vodafone uk contract.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gallahad2000:
Hmm, they all have pics on my side. So you have a Vodaphone TP2, which is a GSM phone and is also known as a "RHOD100".

You should put your sim card back in as that information was given thinking that you were on sprint/verizon (their phones use CDMA technology and don't need the sim card). Your phone operating on GSM should require a sim card to make non-emergency calls.

Does your phone work properly in Windows Mobile? What's your coverage like? If you've got busted hardware or crappy signal then it's not going to work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Why not just follow the directions in the FAQ? That'll definitively tell you which device you have, but I agree it's *probably* a RHOD100...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:

Does your phone work properly in Windows Mobile? What's your coverage like? If you've got busted hardware or crappy signal then it's not going to work---------- yep works fine tried internet and Skype on windows worked fine. switched over to Android and could only get internet and Skype once I switched on WIFI
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
If you are unable to obtain a radio logcat, then you should probably just wait until FRX07 comes out. The new RIL might fix things for you (in fact it's highly likely), but:

1) Without a radio logcat, it's impossible to tell if it will fix things

2) highlandsun (understandably) gets very annoyed with anyone who files trouble reports against the RIL without logcats

Obtaining radio logcats is covered in a few threads here, or you can do some Googling.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gallahad2000:
Is it possible he's using the wrong startup.txt. Use windows mobile to copy the startup.txt from "\storage card\andboot\startups\rhod\rhod100\" to "\storage card\andboot\" and then boot up android.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
OK, Christiaan91

Have two screen shots as I could not get everything in one. I think many of these are Android apps. Don't know why they do not load in the AndroidApps folder. Can they be moved there? The Folder Android contains a folder Froyo6 and another Data

The XDAndroidStartup does not work

I want to remove anything not needed and tidy up anything else. I guess the ideal is a folder

Documents

Android

Ubuntu

and all the WM wherever it goes, but I do not know what is doable...

There you go
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Ignore the comments about the RIL - while it does drastically improve things, you should still be able to get service/data on the old RIL.

Have you configured your APN properly...?

Wouldn't it be easier to backup all the WM stuff and format the card? You seemingly ignored my other post too, thanks...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
How would I do this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Go to the APN menu?

Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> APN

IIRC!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] lotusfrontera:
Yep thats all done.

Maybe I should contact my provider (Vodafone UK) and see if its being blocked their end?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Don't, there's no way they'll support this configuration (your phone wasn't exactly designed to run Android :p).

I'm going to ask many questions, please answer them all!

So to be clear, service works - but you don't get data, correct?

Does your provider require a proxy or some such thing to connect to the internet?

The APN is 'enabled' - as in it has a green dot on it?

Do you see 3g icons - or any icons with up/down arrows in the notification bar (top bar)?

I think that's it, let me know ;).

Buzzing

I'm getting a buzzing in the phone sometimes before a call, all the time with callwaiting, and on speaker I thought there was a post in the thread but couldn't find it. Any help thanks? Searched the forum but no exact answer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Are you in a 2G area when this happens? Does it disappear when in a 3G area?

For whatever reason, some audio routing bug causes local GSM buzz in some cases. The new audio routing stuff MIGHT fix this...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Not sure about all of that but when I first installed FRX06 it was ok but now I get it. It doesn't say 2g or 3g on my phone at all!
