[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SnakeManJayd:
I wiped my SD card and installed the whole package for FRX05.

I'm using HTC Touch Pro. (raphael 100?)

On first boot it hung after the XDANDROID screen, asking to force quit or wait. I waited and after 5 minutes rebooted.

On second boot it went fine and froze when I opened the camera app.

I then added the

"set INITRD_OFFSET 0x608000"

line to the startup file, as was suggested as a fix on the camera thread, and tried again.

It booted no problems and camera is working with video and sound.

For the sake of certainty I shut down, changed the starup.txt back to default and booted again. It booted ok, and the camera and video with sound seem to be working fine.

So I don't know if booting it once with the "set INITRD_OFFSET 0x608000" line fixed it or if it was just a one time thing when it froze and it was working all the time. But just in case any of this info is helpful to others, I thought I'd tell the whole story.

Thanks for the new update.

Cheers

i've found that the version of market,i.e., vending.apk is still 1.8.2, why not use the latest version or can i manually update it?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] dengi_it:
On my Blackstone it works nice, but it often freezes!

This happens in particular leaving the device in sleep mode. When trying to switch on the phone it does not wake up anymore.

It's a pity because Android works fine! I had this problem with all the versions found in XDA (X Red, FX05 and the one in this thread!)

Any advice??
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hrk7474:
I noticed with the FRX05 build that my Blackstone would seem to not react to the wake-up/power button. If I pressed it immediately again it would confirm my suspiscion and stay dead, but if i waited about five seconds and then pressed it would turn on. So don't rush it, but it might be dead anyway :p

An other thing is trying another sleep mode.

If you've downloaded the bundle then it probably says pm.sleep_mode=1 in your startup.txt. Change this to 2, 3 or 4 and see if it changes anything. It'll probably change batterylife the most. :D

Otherwise this build should run fine.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SnakeManJayd:
The same thing happens to me.

Sometimes it is really dead, and other times the screen just just takes a while to turn on. I can usually tell the difference, as when it is frozen, the screen stays off, but when trying to come on the screen turns on, but stays blank, which looks like a very dark grey, vs the black of an off screen.

I've tried pm.sleep_mode=2 yesterday and I will continue to try it out today and see if it helps. I've noticed it mainly happens when I turn off wifi and 3g.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SnakeManJayd:
iptables

The sleep mode 2 seems to be working for me so far, although as expected, the battery seems to go a bit faster.

Also...

I have been trying to get proxy access at university to get internet access without using mobile data (which is really expensive here). The guys in this thread have an app that might work. It gives an error though. And their response is:

Now I don't expect you to make a whole new ROM version just for me, but is there a way to enable this easily in one of the files, so that I can do it myself?

Thanks for the awesome ROM

Cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Eodun:
Try adding modprobe ip_tables to the shell commands in froyo.user.conf (last section)

Edit for explanation: In the modules.tar.gz there are some parts of the kernel that were left out and compiled to be used externally. You can load the desired ones with that command: modprobe name_of_module_without_extension

Try adding ip_tables first, if it doesn't work add the nat or the filter one, don't know which ones you need or if one calls another.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SnakeManJayd:
Thanks.

I tried this:

# custom shell commands, these commands run last

custom_shells{

chmod 777 /etc/dbus.conf

echo 2 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/usb_function_switch

rm -f /sdcard/fsck*.rec

modprobe ip_tables

#echo "Hello!!!" # example

#echo "You can create your own commands here" # example

}

That didn't crash it, but it didn't solve the problem.

What else should I add?

nat and filter sound familiar. What would be the command to add them?

modprobe ip_nat

modprobe ip_filter?

Sorry, I have no idea.

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Eodun:
I don't really know which commands do you need, try asking where you got the iptables hint. Or try adding modules one by one. -if you don't want to restart each time, you can execute the same command in the shell emulator, under devtools (if you have it)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] dengi_it:
I checked my startup.txt and the command pm.sleep_mode is not there at all!

At this stage I tryed to insert it at "2" level... I will tell you what happens!

Thanks a lot for your advice. It's indeed a pity that Android works, but freezing in time to time, I cannot count on my phone to receive calls! Like this it is useless...

New 'dirty' kernel by g3rm0: No Audio stuttering.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11936968&postcount=37

Confirmed working in GBX0A on a Blackstone.

Test FRX05 coming right up.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
If there's some 'fix' out there why not post the patch? We can't improve autobuild with people compiling kernels and not sharing the code...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hrk7474:
It's a dirty hack as g3rm0 himself put it:

Or... *hoping*

I'm sorry if it's not supposed to be in this thread.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Oh... I saw this patch for DIAM, didn't realize BLAC was also effected... Hm...

Hopefully viruscrazy can fix it for good, he's swamped with other things presently...

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Eodun:
Put them directly under AndroidApps, not inside sub-folders.

Or use a file explorer to run .apk
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] dengi_it:
Bad news! It still freezes... :(

I'm not testing the level "3" or "4" as it already sucks the battery a lot!!!

Any other advice to avoid the Blackstone doesn't wake up when pushing the power supply button???
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
You should always be using 1 for the sleep mode...

Have you tried different kernels?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] pinguinolandia:
rom is good and fast. camera and video work very well. fast battery down. 4 hour. the signal is very low and often disappears (lost).:(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
If you're using it a lot, 4hrs isn't unheard of... Especially if you're in a poor signal area, which you seem to be in.

For the most part, the signal bar indicator is correct (from what I've seen).

What device are you using? Some devices are worse than others in respect to battery drain.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hrk7474:
I have tried almost every kernel from 1222 (11-11-2010) to present and it's the same thing with most of them, the difference being either the device boots or it doesn't. The 1276 one works best overall, but even with that one sometimes the Blackstone just doesn't wake up. This also happens with sleep modes 2 and 3, only after the device has been up for a lot longer (hours) instead of after, well, the first time it goes for a nap.

Could you explain a little more though why you should always use sleep mode 1? I had GBX0A running with sleep mode 3 for more than 24hrs with only a few manual reboots in between. :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
It's best for battery life, and on RHOD the only time I get SoD's is when I'm in a bad service area - which is a known issue.

Perhaps on blackstone it's a different story? Sorry, I only have one device to test with...

Important question.

Data.img

When booting android for the first time. Can the data.img be created, in another location in the SD card?.

My touch screen doesnt response ? and the display dims away after 5 seconds, i have to wait around 10 seconds to power on the display again....... ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Re-read the first post, step #4.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hrk7474:
Yeah i only have one device to test with too, but testing i will do ;)

Bad service area could be one of my problems too. I have really bad reception at work. Today it only had one instance of not waking up, after i had just been in the elevator. I checked startup.txt and it had sleep mode 2. Changed it to 3 and it has been waking up on demand since. That's about 8hrs ago. Then again it might have been because of Faraday caging in the elevator...

I also didn't charge it during the day, plugged it in just now and still has 22%. So that's about 10hrs total.

I'll reboot with sleep mode 1 and see how it goes.

I've also noticed that though it might not turn on the screen at the first button-push, it does wake up at a second push about 10 seconds later. Doing stuff i suppose...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hwarang:
I cant understand what i have to do in step 4...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Then I don't know how to help you. What do you not understand? Either use an old kernel and create the ts-calib yourself, or use mine which I've attached.

If you can't grasp these simple concepts, perhaps you should stick to WinMo until this project has been completed...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Detailed instructions for step 4

To me, that means that I will have to download the file attached to that post. If you have problems with accessing the attachment(such as viewing the page/post from a mobile device), you might want to CLICK HERE

What that is, is a link to the ts-calibration file that you need in order to run Android. Once you have download it, rename the file to just ts-calibration (or save it as such with no extension) and place it where the file called haret is on your microSD (internal storage for DIAM and variants)

If you still need further assistance with this step, see THIS article for additional information.

n-Joie! (Enjoy)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hwarang:
I have done that, but my touch screen is not calibrated... the phone is only vibrating when i touch the screen ..
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
What exactly have you tried? I was specific in what I am asking you to do. :) You have a RAPH110, right?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hwarang:
No, i am with Blackstone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Then that file I linked you to will not help you. Someone posted the ts-calibration file for use, for your device. I suggest you to either locate that post with the attachment OR do as asked in the second link. The FAQ link has a link to the kernel package that will allow you to create a ts-calibration file but will require you to know what you are doing in order to be able to run Android.

@Arrrghhh

If you find it, could you please attach to 1st post or make mention of where it can be downloaded? Thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hwarang:
I found one for blackstone i will see if it helps :)

OK, everything is fine :) , I hope in coming months it to be optimized for better speed
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Do tell us if that works.

Additionally, I forgot to quote the info right below "step 4". Interesting if you actually read left to right, top to bottom :p ;)

Probably the mysterious step missing between "step 4" and "step 6" :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
He should be able to use the TOPA/RHOD ts-calib files, in which case he's in the wrong section of the forum.

I'm not sure what screen res blackstone is at, does it not match TOPA/RHOD devices?

No clue why he's coming in this section of the forum if he has a blackstone...

Sounds like he'd be best just creating one for himself, on an older kernel as I've clearly instructed how to do so...

Oh, and step 5 is missing intentionally. Bad throwback to South Park and the underpants gnomes :p.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Me thinks one would have to check the startup.txt to confirm the screen res but I guess that's too easy... :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hwarang:
Is this version of android cutted with some point? I mean i played with legend today, and there much more settings in the menu and there is sync with facebook ?

maybe i want more at that time :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
I take it you got it to work this time? Just for future reference, yes others can check your posts to see where you post and I did notice you have posted more than once in the Touch HD section but it would help others assist you faster and more efficiently if you at the very least, include the device you are using in your sig (signature). Only a suggestion, whether you take it or not is entirely up to you my friend! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hwarang:
Thanks for the help!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
We're running AOSP clean - nothing really added to it. You can certainly add more apps, that's really up to you.

AFAIK facebook sync was pulled, can't remember why. Never use that horrible site myself, so I can't really help you there.

Won't exactly tell me what I want to know. I could also look up specs, but that would require leg work on my end :p.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Picky picky picky!

Spoon feed time! :p

Blackstone, Topaz and Rhodium have the same 480 x 800 display :cool:

Probably still not what you're looking for but meh... I'm sure you'll figure it out! :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hrk7474:
Blackstone res is 480x800 (if that's what you mean). Same as Topaz.

For reasons of obviousity:

Blackstone : 147,917,859,918,507,546,157,174,849,170

Raphael: 825,145,168,144,493,495,817,842,164,838

So not only different because of res, but it looks to be the other way 'round as well. :)

Anyway, anyone looking for FRX in the Blackstone section finds a link to this thread, so that's how we end up here, i guess. It only takes a little reading of the FAQs, and everything marked 'READ THIS FIRST' to make the different builds work on a specific device.

BTW: So far so good on sleep mode 1.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Might be better to "shift" all blackstone users to the TP2 forums:

Gingerbread (still in Alpha phase as of today)

No idea where I'd point people to for the FRX## builds that are not quite out of date yet... :p At least, that is what I am thinking that arrrghhh was thinking, I think... :confused: :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
If anything, you should be directed to the RHOD section instead of the RAPH section...

In lieu of that information (which I already knew :p) the ts-calib from a RHOD should work just fine.

Don't use the calib from RAPH, that definitely won't work.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] hrk7474:
Oh man, you're not kidding...

[03/03/11]XDAndroid - Topaz [2.2.2][FRX05 Final]

But i've got the arrrghhh bundle running so well right now, with everything, extra cheese and all... If it ain't broke, right? :p

Ah well, i'll just pretend i'm in it for 'cross-device-build-compatibility' or something. :rolleyes:

I'll put that in the thread over there. But it looks like the threads for FRX05 and GBX0A are all the same, ARRRGHHH!!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Eodun:
Sorry, someone left one door open in our Blackstone forum and one or two wild users escaped. We'll do our best so that doesn't happen again, and keep them locked there :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] cameleon39:
Hello to all!!

it's been pleased that I read all exchanges taking place on these forums.

I tried several versions of Android, I finally found this version very stable "Froyo X Red", and I seized this opportunity to thank a lot for his terrific job TIAD8.

I also have a question, and I hope it is not ridiculous, in this version I can sync my inbox via the internet, I can use the "Android Market" Facebook and all other programs except the internet brouser I get an error message of connection

Is there anyone who has the same problem or am I alone?

Cordially
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Why would you come in my thread and talk about another build like that? I'm not going to answer your question, that's very rude.

Kinda hurtful if you ask me. I prefer this build, but I am a little biased...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] vaughnmr:
I agree, why clog up this thread with questions about another version... And why isn't he asking the developer about the problem.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
Please ask your question relevant to the thread you are posting in

If you are NOT using FRX05 with all updated files along with a RAPH110 and at&t as the operator, I would say you are "alone" my friend (in other words you might want to include your device listed in your sig/signature). Also, keep in mind this thread mentions use of XDAndroid and the processes for FroYo X Red are entirely different. One requires multiple partitions, the other only requires one.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] cameleon39:
Sorry!!!! I was wrong
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] DoubleYou79:
Nice build. Installed it on the blackstone of my girlfriend. Works like a charm so far. Finally no more Windows mobile in our household.

Has anyone gotten tethering to work?

I've tried the option that is built in;

settings>Wireless & networks> Tethering...

The USB obviously won't work, but wifi tethering just tries and says Error.

I have also tried other apps in both bluetooth and wifi modes an no luck. These are the apps I have tried.

Barnacle Wifi tether

Wireless tether (for root users)

PdaNet

just get various fail messages, or with PdaNet, it says it is active, manage to pair bluetooth, but then nothing.

I'm using touch pro.

version 5 of the ROM with whatever kernel comes with it.

would you like to see the logcat file of when I try to connect it?

Any ideas?

I am getting a Xoom wifi when they come out and I would really like to tether my phone to it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Did you read the FAQ? It goes over your tethering options.

Wifi tethering is still flaky, I found the official XDAndroid wifi tethering app works the best. The built-in feature doesn't work so well yet.

Also, I find USB tethering to be the most solid type of tethering we have at the moment - again, this is in the FAQ...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
When's the last time someone checked balsat?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] SnakeManJayd:
Busted!

I had not checked the FAQ, sorry about that.

Will try out the wifi one.

I'm going to see if I can get tethering right without rooting the xoom when I get it.

In other words. It doesn't have stock USB host capabilities so will try wifi first. Thanks.
