hi, arrrghhh

I tried the new RIL, the GSM lost signal in sleep mode problem persists.

i found in previous post that the kernel without this problem is wistilt 3/1/2011 kernel, but i can find it in your [Testing] New Kernel ... thread. do you have a copy of wistilt 3/1/2011 kernel?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
No, use an autobuild kernel. If you're not willing to help us debug the issue, then why are you even testing the kernels? You're not being helpful at all. If you want us to even think about fixing the issue, we need logs of the issue. It works flawlessly for me, but I don't have a GSM SIM to test this with - I need one of you guys to step up, and thus far no one has. We need someone who is willing to test, test, test so we can fix, fix fix...

You're a smartass aren't you... Well, I hope you have that 3d in hand - BT has been 'fixed' for a while, just needs some userland routing fixes. jb said they're almost done, and he's going to throw up a test thread soon.

Same old applies... if you don't have anything nice to say, STFU.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
If you're just losing signal and not actually hanging, it should be easy to get a logcat or dmesg.

Use an autobuild kernel, or use the latest wistilt2 kernel and grab a radio logcat and a dmesg. Between that and the knowledge that it broke after 3/1 or so, WisTilt2 might be able to hunt the regression. Without a radio logcat and a dmesg - the regression won't be hunted or fixed.

WinMo picture app shows Android graphics

The Android works great on my RHOD400, and is installed in the Android sub directory on the MicroSD. However, snce I installed Android, the WinMo picture app shows Android graphics on the MicroSD. How do I stop that from happening?

Edit: Found a solution:

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/HTC/HTCAlbum/Ignored and add a NEW STRING VALUE

Eg if there is Android in the root of the Storage Card you would create a NEW STRING VALUE with Value name Android and Value Data \Storage Card\Android

This will include all subfolders inside the Android folder. Save and reset.

That's part of the freeze prob people have had, I would say. It is what I had. Follow the link for the freeze fix, it is referred to in a couple of replies here. It is NOT perfect and I would say it did NOT fix it completely for me BUT it is VASTLY better and my machine is not piping hot, it was sometimes running too hot to touch!

Yes, but since I installed the Freeze fix that seems to have gone away. However, the freeze still occurs if the phone is left for a few minutes and not in an app... It appears to not want to come out of sleep mode.. The LED changes from green to amber, but nothing happens.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
arrrghhh

As you have probably noticed from my recent replies, the fix did not work fully. FYI:

The freeze still occurs if the phone is left for a few minutes and not in an app... It appears to not want to come out of sleep mode.. The LED changes from green to amber, but nothing happens. Then back to geen.:confused:

The phone does not seem to reboot unexpectedly any more.:)

The phone is running VERY much cooler!!!:)

Sometimes the desktop icons disappear, which is new.:confused:

Hope this feedback is of use. I am about to go on a cross Europe trip. It shall be interesting to see how the phone behaves... 5 countries besides the UK.;)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Green to amber and back to green - are you able to try it again or is the phone hung after this?

Green to amber w/o screen turning on is what we call "failed wake" - the WisTilt2 kernels fix many of those issues but it can still sometimes happen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jonners59:
I can keep trying and it does not come back, except on the VERY odd occasion, normally best to reboot... Done 4 or 5 times today

Yeh, Ok, what I have called in a deep sleep, rather than sleep, but yup. Any ideas on a fix, though I am off and on the road for my 16hr drive in 1 hr!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gallahad2000:
I've found that swiping the screen may help it wake up. I was using Tiad's builds before and they didn't (nor the reefermattness ones) have this problem. Hopefully they can figure out what's causing it and get it fixed (since this is the only build still being updated).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Moylans:
Thanks mate, Will try that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
This is a 'known' fix. WisTilt2's newest test has almost eliminated the failed wake.

You can go back to how those old builds were on the newer builds - it's all kernel related, so if you go back to a kernel before panel collapse (1253 maybe?) you won't have any issues with it - but your panel will never truly turn off either, so battery life will be worse. Plus, you won't get any of the other fixes that the kernel revisions have gone thru. Pick your poison!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Moylans:
So, Ive updated to WisTilt2's latest kernel and its already much much much better. I'll see what its like in long run, but so far, it is tons better.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] gallahad2000:
Thanks, this seems to have fixed it. :D

There can still be a pretty decent delay before it wakes but it seems to always get to it eventually.

Cannot turn WIFI on

My phone is a Tilt 2 (Fortress) with stock ROM. Today 08-APR-2011 I did the following:

Formatted my SC card using HPUSBDisk.exe utility.

Downloaded the "Full Bundle" and unzipped it to my SD card.

Put the appropriate STARTUP.TXT file in the FRX06 directory.

Put the appropriate calibration file in the FRX06 directory.

Started HARET.EXE

Android started. All worked fine except I could not turn on the WIFI. In the settings screen when I click to turn on WIFI it says "Error".

I shutdown and restarted the phone a couple of times, each time unsuccessfully starting WIFI from the settings screen.

Does anyone have any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mrife:
Cannot turn WIFI on

Sorry for the double post. Please ignore this one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Did you change anything from the bundle? It should "just work", but if you changed the kernel you have to be sure to get the modules that match, and remove any old modules before booting.

Assuming you're running a clean bundle from the first post, wifi works out of the box.

There are a few that have to do this mess with wifi-nvram.txt, but they are definitely in the minority. Has wifi ever worked?

Hi,

I'm looking for an Android ROM and I have heard that they all have problems (things that don't work).

Can you tell (maybe in the first post) what the bugs/problems are in this version?

Things like GPS, Wifi, Earplug, etc..

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Christiaan91:
1. Your probably want to connect with a WEP key. Don't use WEP, use WPA or WPA2 instead. Or you can search for an app called wifi-ace or something (search for more info)

2. If you're not using the wistitlt2 test kernel, you have to make sure that if you boot into android the 4 buttons are off. If they are on while booting android they will stay on.

Any suggustions
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Sounds like it might be a Sleep of Death issue.

Which hardware variant? RHOD100 by any chance? 100s with a particular panel type (AUO) aren't well supported.

WisTilt2's testing kernels (look at arrrgghhh's kernel testing thread) might help you - but don't go there unless you are prepared to provide very detailed trouble reports. (Exact state of LED when frozen, which hardware variant you have, etc.)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
hyc's RIL has helped tremendously with the SoD issue. I don't think the RIL was causing every single freeze, but it seemed to be causing a lot of them.

It should be device agnostic, try it on your phone and your wife's TOPA.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Perhaps you should note, you are in the RHOD section of the forum - TouchPro2. Not the Touch HD/Blackstone...

So why would I post issues related to that device? AFAIK the 3.5mm jack is working on that device, but again - this is not the section for your device...

Feedback from a traveller

Please excue typing, I am working from my mobile

My last reply I stated on Friday I was going on a trip and transiting 6 countries.

Here is my report if of interest on how. The build worked. London to Italyy via France, Brrussels, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria and Italy. Using CoPilot on the phone as backup to the in-built. Car Sat Nav.

The phone got very hot and kept freezing on the 1 1/2 hr. Drive. To Dover, so was just put. Away after first hour.

Rebooted again at port and left CP off

Entered France could not pick up signal for phone. Tried reboots, still would not work. Put the phone away checking when in Brussels and The Netherlands on eeach. Occassion, noot. Connection. Connection establish in Germany, and this. Lasted in to Austria.

Italy, it. Had trouble picking up a signal, but once gained it has been working, though it. Is almost imposible to selec a prefered airtime provider whih could turn out expensive.

Freezing. It is now very bad. If the phone is left for more than a couple of minutes then it freezes. S if I want to make a call or browse or read eMail I have to reboot first. Every time.

Memeory. My phone is warning me I have limited space left on the phone. This MUST be the build as my WM was only at 30% and I have done nothing with that. Since the move to the project.. I store my apps on the SD card using Titanium. So what and how?

I hope this is of use. I do not know how I shall follow the thraed whilst here. As it is not easy on the phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] highlandsun:

You can use this tool to increase ur system size. I suggest backing up your current Data.img before you change it in case anything goes wrong or things start breaking after u resize.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Tippfehler:
I had yesterday and today an unclean filesystem (data.img). It was not passible to boot, no flying androids. My sdcard is Class 6, 8GB.

Is it possible to execute fsck automatically at boot, if it is needed? Maybe the data.img was to small, now I have 600 MB.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I run with a 256mb data.img since the beginning, no problems - the only 'issue' is if you have a ton of apps installed that requires more than 256mb.

I'm not sure why your data.img was preventing you from booting, that's a new one on me.

Okay, I've been reading and doing stuff in this forum for over a week now and everything is going real good.

I'm running wistilt's kernel which has all-but eliminated the SoD's.

My issue is that I still can't get WiFi working. It's not a deal breaker because it's a company phone and our data plan is unlimited, but WiFi would be nice where my 3G signal is weak (e.g. the bathroom).

I have downloaded WiFi Ace and it doesn't do squat.

I haven't read all 70-some-odd pages of the post but I have done several searches and found no helpful info.

Please point me in the right direction. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Christiaan91:
Have you tried this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
To zerovertex:

If this doesn't resolve it, the issue may also be the wifi-nvram.

If you've never gotten wifi to work - IE with autobuild kernels, with older builds - wifi has never ever worked - then you might be one of the few that has to do the wifi-nvram trick to get it to work. I need to add that to the FAQ, thanks Entropy512 :p.

Basically if the phone scans but never even sees an AP - wifi-nvram is the problem. It may never even scan, just say 'error' - basically the system can't get the MAC of your wlan radio properly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zerovertex:
I haven't tried that, but only addresses WEP.

When I try to enable WiFi, it scans for access points, pops up a bubble that says "unable to scan for networks" then the WiFi shuts off.

When I launch WiFi Ace, I am prompted to enable the WiFi and nothing else visible happens. I assume it enables the WiFi then subsequently WiFi shuts off again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] zerovertex:
Ah, I think you are on to something there.

Searching for "wifi-nvram" now. I'll let you know how it comes out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Entropy512:
Yup, that's a classic symptom of needing the wifi-nvram.txt workaround.

This is why describing "not working" in detail helps. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I've already added the basic info to the FAQ, but here's the money post.

Arrrgggh I have tried the suggestion with the special mounting of the APN you suggested and it stopped freezing but still no data. Is there anyway I can check some logs or something to see why my data is not working. I even added the APN info I found using the Backup & Restore APN program, reboot and no data. I still think that its the whole thing where my Phone is originally a U.S. Cellular on Alltel 100% working, including EVDO and MMS. But when Android boots it says U.S. Cellular for the carrier so I think its looking for that APN. I tried tricking it by editing the Alltel APN to say its U.S. Cellular but still no luck! Please help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Sounds like you've got one hodge-podge of a phone there buddy.

I don't think I can help you - I haven't heard of anyone with these specific problems. Have we been over the proxy topic? I don't have either of those carriers, you'd have to search around for others who have your carrier & have had similar issues.

Sorry, we can't support every carrier and every combination of carriers. I also can't answer questions for every weird carrier combination out there :p.

I know there are logs you can look at, but if you knew how to analyze said logs, you'd probably know how to collect them... But logcat and a radio logcat are probably what you need to poke thru. Enjoy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] TechGuy77:
No but I'd be happy to hear about it...will try to search for it but fill me in if you get a chance.

Which tethering app? Titanium Backup works fine, and yes we are rooted. Shouldn't need to do anything additional for root access.

No worries, I just don't know what that device needs differently. Perhaps the blackstone folk can made a mirror thread over there with blackstone specific q&a? I think one of them asked me if they could and I of course granted them permission - I'm not doing anything special, I'm just making bundles of the XDAndroid repo's and hopefully maintaining some simple and straight forward directions on how to install it. :D

Oh, it's nothing deep or related to Android specifically - just does your carrier require a proxy for you to connect to the internet? Cricket, for example, requires a proxy - does your provider require a proxy to connect to the internet?

ha, logcat is related to adb, but there are a few apps you can use that you can pull the logs on the phone with. IIRC OS Monitor is a good one, but I prefer good ole adb.
