You are having #3 because you didn't follow directions.

The contents of the folder refered to should be in root on the SD card, not the entire folder.

You really need to read more, go back to post #1 and read it very carefully.

If you follow the directions step by step it will work.

That particular poster does nothing BUT help. Sometimes there comes a time where we have to help ourselves first before others can help us.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I try to help as much as possible, but he didn't seem to grasp basic concepts...

Edit - Seriously, Android isn't for everyone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
YEAH, got it going!!!!!!!

OK, the give away I think was the no 3G and the difference in clock time. I am guessing.

Anyway. The phone would ONLY work for less than 1 minute, until a reboot was required. So I went in several time sto change settings and suddenly I noticed it was staying "unfrozen" for longer.

Steps:

Emptied the SD Card of everything and then re-imaged it.

Re-installed the XDADNDROID Startup and the FROYO6 to the card in a folder called andboot and changed the startup config to reflect the non stadard location of the install

I went in to settings and turned off data and data roaming. I then changed time settings from auto to manual and set them for local date and time. I then checked the regoin and ensured it was set for UK/London, and so on. Each done on a different reboot....

After I had it working I copied back all the files and folders I wanted from the SD Card backup.

OK, what do I think of the new image:

GREAT. It seems to have fixed a number of the outstanding broken bits. Excellent. Well done chaps.

The system freezing, I am going to have to keep my eye on. The last image used to loose network and or freeze about 3 or 4 times per day. this one seems to have been cured but I had a freeze this evening but they may have been me asking too much of.

:)

Turned out to be a screen calibration issue (fixed with highlandsun tweak). I do wish there were a way to increase the sensitivity to touch, but I suspect that the potential of resistive screens has already been reached.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
To all I understand what you are saying but I have been reading post 1 back and forth and it wasn't clicking until this came through

I thought I could put the whole folder on the root now I understand and I'm watching youtube NEVER thought about that, when I'm through I will post back of course and you all can continue to chastise me!:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Just need to read man, it's all there in plain English...

You can either put everything at the root of your SD, or put it in a folder and adjust the rel_path setting. Again, this is all in the first post...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Fierofiend:
I don't post on here much, mostly a lurker. I have tried a few things with frx06 and I am also staying red. All my other builds go green except this one. Idk what the issue is and I haven't spent any time trying to figure it out. I have a clean SD card and nothing installed on top of the package. It just won't go green. I now have a few 'boot' folders on my SD card so I can load up the gingerbread or older "roms" and those will go green. I also don't get any gps lock no matter how long I wait. Not a big deal, just sayin.

Edit, lols @ above guy who didn't know how to copy files. I consider myself a newb (though I've been around android installs since you guys were developing for the vogue) and I have a few issues here and there but damn, I make damn sure I poke around a bit before bothering you brilliant developers with petty questions. (Explains my post count, lol)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
GPS hasn't changed between FRX05 and 06. What kernel are you on...? The newest on GIT definitely has issues with sleep, which is why I still bundle 1276 - I didn't change the kernel in my latest bundle pack, even tho there's newer kernels on GIT.

That would be my best guess, assuming you didn't do something silly like leave GPS enabled :p.

Also, GPS works for me - if you get a lock in WinMo or use QuickGPS in WinMo before booting Android, I noticed Android benefits greatly for at least a short period of time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Fierofiend:
i have no idea what changed, but I just loaded google maps and I got a lock almost instantly, wtf? Crazy how that works sometimes. I couldn't get a lock for the life of me any other time I tried this build.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] immson:
I am also having trouble getting it to go green... All I did was format my card, install everything on the first page, moved the rhod400 (since it is what i got) startup as well as a calibration file.

Everything works fine except it wont go green.

edit, i got a lock in winmo first, booted droid and it didnt get a lock

I am not worried about the edit, just throwing it out there in case anyone was curious, however, i would be interested in getting my light to go green so i dont have to worry about battery loss
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Lock in WinMo helps this tremendously. I had a few times where it would lock on within 10s with no previous lock in WinMo... I'm not sure why either, if only all locks were like that :p.

The usual suspects?

What kernel are you on - newest from autobuild has issues with sleep.

Do you have GPS enabled? BT? Anything else? Have you made sure there's no apps preventing sleep?

I've been running FRX06 for a while now, sleeps just fine for me. Honestly not a lot has changed in this system image, as you can see from the changelog...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ezmc:
Okay, so the apps have stopped working out of the blue. Upon loading up the build, I get an 'unexpected error, please report' message, and then each time I try to open an app the error message with 'force close' comes up. I haven't changed anything or messed around witht the settings. The only thing I can think of is that I rebooted the device while an app was in the middle of downloading/installing.

Any suggestions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Ok I'm still at it, am I suppose to unzip the ts-calibration file from the 1st post because when I do it doesn't have the txt extention on it and all it say for file type is file is that correct.

Thank you.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Just a lot of FC's or what?

Probably need to rename your data.img. Try to take backups of apps with Titanium Backup, before stuff gets hosed...

Although, I might be making a mountain out of a molehill - perhaps you just aren't patient enough when it loads? I notice the more apps I have, the longer it takes to boot. Once you let it settle down, things are snappy and fine. I've pushed some apps hard after boot, because I was being impatient - ended up rebooting within Android.

Does it still say something about .txt in the first post? I need to edit that if need be... Yes, there should be no file extension. Just unzip it to where you run haret.exe from.

Crap, it does still mention the .txt extension... D'oh, I thought I changed all my threads when I moved to .zips! Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:
At home with wifi enabled I get instant GPS lock. Could be that it just recognizes my wifi ap, or it could be that it's got faster access to the agps servers. I wasn't able to ping the agps servers from 3G, so that would certainly slow agps down.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
New market - I've been trying to find an APK for the new market that isn't a crashfest. The one from tiad8's builds is most promising, it's the only one that has ever successfully downloaded anything. However, after that it was just an FC-fest.

How to get tapatalk - No need for a market update for this one. Fire up the market and buy it.

Also, to those who have had various data-related hangs and freezes including weak-signal SoDs, I got a very promising logcat that points to a good potential culprit. It seems like Bad Things happen if our RIL tries to establish a data call and it fails unexpectedly. highlandsun is looking into it, and I think I may have found a fairly good test case. If you have an active WiFi connection, the phone will attempt to shut it down and switch to a 2G/3G data call while asleep. So the phone tries to set up data calls a LOT more, so if you're in a weak-signal area, it's much more likely to go splodey splodey.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
To everyone that had freezing issues:

I would like to test a theory. You can rename your data.img to "start over", but I'd like to try a different apns-conf.xml to see if it resolves the freezing.

It's from CM, APNlist.

Please bind mount this file to /system/etc/apns-conf.xml using the user.conf file in conf.

mount --bind /sdcard/apns-conf.xml /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] afgomar:
when you plug in the phone and it gives you options on the phone of whether to use activesync or use as disk drive click use as disk drive. because you cant do it if your in activesync.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
I wouldn't suppose this is possible to check with non-Linux PC users?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] pdawg17:
Just to clarify...you aren't talking about SoD...just sudden freezing when using the phone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] snalbansed:
I would assume he is referring to those of us who get a freeze within 30s of reaching the home screen on a new build with a modern kernel. Which will continue to happen until you set the correct apn, usually by using flight mode to allow you to do it before it crashes!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Ok, thanks I got that part but man I'm lost I will keep trying!

How I don't know but it went through, thanks all it has been over 16+hrs but I got it, I think it was the overclock or startup file!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANKS EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sportfisio:
Hi! I just moved to this, and it's AWESOME! After some lacks of configuration, is working amost perfect!!! No issues at all! Even I went running with Runkeeper, and GPS locks in less than 30s!

So, only 2 things are not working for me:

- can't add Facebook account to sync accounts settings

- my usb headphones are not detected...In first post says 3.5mm don't work, but I tought usb one (Rhod100) should...Am I wrong? EDIT: original HTC headphones are working perfect, but other usb to jack adapter not always. Even original HTC adapter with music buttons is not working, but I understand this is not a must.

- finally, how can I adapt the hardware keys to match with special symbols? I have spanish qwerty keyboard, and can't put Ñ...(wich we already use a lot...)

Congratulations to everybody making this possible!

Last thing: is planned to make front camera work?

Thanks thanks thanks thanks!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
snalsbansed has it correct, this is what I'm talking about - see my comments below ;).

Of course, you can edit your froyo.user.conf in Windows...

However, I don't think you're effected by this issue. I am talking about the hard freeze after just a few brief moments of uptime, on every boot. Seems to mostly be folks overseas, and I'm testing a theory it's the APN list that is causing it.

I don't use FaceBook, but I think their 3rd party app from the Market works - just no built-in sync, which I think is a feature of Sense, not AOSP.

extUSB *should* work, but it seems flaky. Hopefully it'll get a polish soon.

Have you looked at the physkbd layouts? Perhaps there is one for your device, I do not know...

Front cam? Only the RHOD100 folk have one of those AFAIK, so... if it ever is functional, it'll be for a very small cross-section of people that it will work for - so that'll be pretty low priority.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sportfisio:
Wow, so many thanks for such a fast answer! Well, facebook app is perfect, just want to ask if that sync fails...No problem here.

ExtUSB sometimes work and sometimes not, but glad to see we'll get a fix sometime!

I didn't check physkbd layouts, sorry! I'm noob in Android, gonna do some search here! Thanks for help!

And for front cam I knew that would be the answer, and I really understand it. Just sad about it, but is understanding...

Thanks again for everything!!!

Your best chance is with F22's rootfs: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=935710

However, a quick look shows German, French, Italian, Dutch, Nordic and UK versions of the rhod100 keyboard, but not Spanish.

Have a search of that thread, if you don't find anything about spanish take a photo of your keyboard and upload it along with a question on that thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Indeed, if there is no layout F22 is usually very responsive, and is glad to add additional layouts if it's fairly painless ;).

No Cell or Data Service on Rhod400 builds any longer

:confused:

Running Rhod400.

I have FRX06 up and running. I can boot into the OS. I cannot connect to the data or cell network. It always comes up in sleep mode. I have turned sleep mode off, used the "force CDMA" startup feature but, I no longer have cell service or data service. Not sure what I did to kill this. It was working on the FRX04 boot but, not now. I have tried FRX04, FRX06, and GBX0A booting but, none of them will bring up the cell or data service! What would cause this or what could I have done to kill this? It was working on the FRX04 build up until a few days ago.

Thx,
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Are you GSM or CDMA? You need to set the force_cdma command accordingly, 1 for CDMA, 0 for GSM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Pdiminico:
I am CDMA (Sprint Touch Pro 2). The force_cdma=1 is set within all of my startup.txt files for FRX04, FRX06, and GBX0A folders.

Thx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
That should be all you need, assuming you've also removed any SIM in the SIM slot ;).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
I've had it happened, but it's on a few rare occasions. Probably from the memory overload at booting I would assume though (as that was what was happening before)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Pdiminico:
I keep forgetting about the SIM in the phone and the effect!!!!

I inserted the SIM so not to misplace it.

So far FRX04 and FRX06 are working.

Thx

Im new to the android threads so searching around for info. I did all the steps given in this thread and it loads android. Thank you so much.

Im using RHOD100 startup.txt file.

According to http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Rhodium/Shipped_Roms my phone is

HTC	RHOD10000	n/a	1.19.707.2 (51489)	3.44.25.27	61.25t.25.19U	21048

I cant seem to access the menu item key. Does anyone know how or am i doing something wrong
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yea, I need to add that to the FAQ. You can flip the SIM upside down, the battery won't fit quite as well but it works and you won't lose your SIM ;).

It's the "Windows" key, the second key from the left.

No... not the same issue. Some have an issue where on first boot, the phone hangs after 30s or so of usage - no matter what they do, it hangs every single time after about 30s. Some have said up to 2-3mins, but every time it hangs no matter what without fail.

Most, if not all, of these people have fixed it with the correct APN settings. These are the folks that I would like to test my theory.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Is this for only cdma phones? Also can I make a haret shortcut because gen dual boot giving registry error(searching for answer)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
You can make a shortcut, but that's a WinMo issue.

And yes, you kinda need the SIM on GSM phones to make and receive calls, txts... etc.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Death666Angel:
Hello guys!

I just wanted to make a quick post.

I just made the switch to Android on TP2 and have to say, I like what I'm seeing so far. I've been using a 6.5WinMo rom by Energy ever since the HardSPL got released and was pretty okay with it, but haven't used it in a very smartphone-y way, because the applications I was interested in just weren't there for the OS.

It is pretty fast and the overclocking makes it even better. I am getting to know Android and its possibilities but so far, I'm impressed.

I do have 2 questions though (sorry if they were answered already, I couldn't find anything relating to them via search):

- what is up with the status LED? For me, it is either orange or green, without being plugged in to recharge. I read somewhere that it might have to do with programs being active or the device being in a deep sleep mode?

- when I launch Android (either via Gen.Y or through manually starting haret), the Android launch screen is in landscape mode and I have to slide the keyboard out and in again to make it be in portrait.

I have a German Rhodium device if that makes a difference.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Status LED indicates sleep state - please read the FAQ.

Landscape on boot is a bug, it's on the bug tracker. You can either slide the kbd out/in, or hit the back button - either one will work. This issue is fixed in GB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] SteelLife:
Yes it's a sleep state, orange trying to go to sleep(programs running some say gps or google app I'm not sure) and green deep sleep, trying to help but I'm a true noob, It's in this thread though!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] buckeye25osu:
Speed

Hey all, what kind of speed should I be expecting? I have followed the intructions and installed this build directly to the root of the same microSD card I use for Windows Mobile. I've set up everything and used the Rhod400 startup and even overclocked to 700mhz. I can boot and use Android just fine, but it seems very very slow. It seems too slow to even use to be honest so I'm thinking something has to be wrong as I hear people using this as their primary OS. As an example I tested Angry Birds (free) and its chugging along at a very low framerate.. I'm guessing somewhere near single digits. Completely unplayable. I can't even use the browser really.

Should I wipe it out and try installing again? Or is it a necessity to install to a freshly formatted SD to ensure good speed? I'm using a 4gb sandisk (class 2 I think). I'm guessing there has to be a something wrong for this to be this slow. Thank you in advance and thanks for all the awesome work you all do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Steefje:
ey guys and girls,

i've just downloaded this build and now trying to install HTC Sense (that is in the Market). But i just can't get it to work. I can't even get it installed.

Anybody got some kind of idea what the problem can be?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
HTC Sense is not available on the Market, it's only available on official Android handsets - and obviously only HTC ones...

Well, keep in mind this is an old phone - you can't expect it to run like a brand new Android device...

Also, Angry Birds AFAIK runs horrible for everyone. I despise the game, never understood the facination myself - but I've heard Angry Birds Rio and Lite run a lot better on our tired old hardware.

Other than that, I would remove the OC and make sure you let it settle down when you boot - it takes a while to become quick & responsive after booting, I usually let it sleep on first boot and don't touch it for at least 5 mins. Usually is pretty snappy after that.

Again, it's not a brand new phone, so the hardware specs are limiting. We do our best to write good software, but there's probably room for improvement there as well. GPU seems to being utilized, but perhaps not to its full potential.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] buckeye25osu:
Thanks. I do realize that its old, but everything seems to be running too slow, not just angry birds. I'll try RIO. But I thought the free version of Birds was Lite? maybe not....

I don't mind that there are a few missing elements. I read so much about GPS and Bluetooth, but I'm betting that less than 5% use BT and not many use GPS too much either. Its speed that I mostly care about. Its nice to test drive android apps without committing to a new android phone. If I like it on this outdated phone, I'll love them on a new powerhouse. What is this media scanner?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Christiaan91:
I don't get the people who want android only for a game.

I use BT and GPS very often. BT for headphones when i'm driving and GPS when i need to go somewhere and i don't know the road.

Gen.Y DualBOOT registry:

[HKCU\Software\Gen.Y\DualBOOT]:

"AndroidBootFolder"="[blank]" if using root of SD card; "andboot" if using andboot folder for your bootup files; no quotes

"StorageBootMode"=dword:00000001

"AutoBootAndroid"=dword: 00000001 if you want to boot to Android; 00000000 if you want to boot to WM

The "AndroidBootFolder" is more likely than not your problem.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] buckeye25osu:
I never said anything about using Android "only for a game". Using the Angry Birds game was just one way I chose to test out the system using the most popular game out there. I realize there are other ways, and I mentioned browser speed and menus were slow as well, so I'm hoping to get the system faster overall... for everything.

Yes, you run haret from storage card while in WM...or select AutoBoot to Android in Gen.Y DualBoot after you get the registry corrected.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] buckeye25osu:
Ok, so booted fresh into an /andboot folder. Screen goes blank after a minute or so and the light is staying orange. Doesn't this mean it isn't going to sleep? Perhaps whatever is keeping it from going to sleep is the reason for the poor speed.
