Still no luck. I've tried the following: -

1. Download all three files in the first post.

2. Copy all the files from the Froyo X Red Camera (24/02 update) to the root of a freshly formatted FAT32 8GB Class 2 SDHC memory card

3. Boot android (everything seems fines)

4. Copy the new lib+kernels to SDHC card (without editing conf file or anything to avoid Windows corrupting the file).

5. Open up the camera app and i get the following message - Cannot connect to camera

6. Replace the libcamera.so file with the libcamera.so.5mp version on VirusCrazy's page and removed the rel_path=andboot (as files are copied to root of sd card)

7. Same error message.

Issue regarding incoming call was solved by merely leaving the phone alone for a few minutes (p.s. love the ringtone :p )

Any ideas where I'm going wrong? I've been trying out the previous versions for both FRX04 and Froyo X RED, but I am still waiting to see something on my camera! I tried to what Tiad8 mentioned about force_cdma=0, but again, no luck. Either I'm stupid, or my touch HD dislike's me :(

P.s. a useful addition for the startup would be to add the line msm_blackstone_pad.vibrate=1
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
done everything now 3 times step by step stil no camera 3g and wifi

what is going wrong ???
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
did you begin with a clean sd card? that means formatted it?
[Touch HD Android Development] hadeanmars:
i think the startup.txt file you've provided doesn't work with your method of installation. you should delete this in your startup.txt

rel_path=andboot

since you said extract the files into the "root" of the sd card not into "andboot" folder, this "rel_path=andboot" should be removed

hope this helps
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
yes ive formated it to fat32

i changed startup text from a other froyo rom and wifi now works but still no 3g

3g also didn't work on the other rom maybe something has to be changed in the file but i'm not that smart ;)

and also verry important camera works with your new files

now only the 3g have to work
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
I have my startup with rel_path=ansboot it worked fine!

wich startup did you use?
[Touch HD Android Development] hadeanmars:
do you have a "andboot" folder in your sd card?
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
i used the start up from froyo 2.2 vers. 1.6
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
no I have not. I will upload a net startup.txt without the andboot section
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
try this one
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
3g works now thanks but when i call i dont hear anything
[Touch HD Android Development] rb_daman:
I had this issue for incoming calls. I think it's to do with the kernel, but you need Viruscrazy's kernels for the camera. to answer calls i have to use the speaker option, and then disable it again to be able to hear the person. this could possibly work for you? Can you hear the ringing when dialing out?
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
no i dont hear anything not even when i put speaker on and off

its to bad because everything is working now bleutooth 3g wifi and camera only the sound with calling ???
[Touch HD Android Development] rb_daman:
So you have everything but the ONE thing a mobile phone was made to do? If you've got a stable version so far, i'd copy all your files into a backup folder and try playing around with the kernels. Alternatively wait a few days and some one will hopefully release a single package with everything we need.
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
yess everything except whats the phone made for ;)

i will try changing kernels anyway bassieball youre almost there :D

thx to u both and tiad8 for the nice android built

waiting for updates
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
please note that the whole android build is tiad8's work not mine! I simply made the tutorial.

and for the calling. I have no problem calling. I was just on the line with my dad who is on skivacation in swiss (I live in holland)
[Touch HD Android Development] thawizard:
i'd like to know if you can use cell tower location with Froyo x Red (meaning locate yourself without using gps)?

It has never worked for me, but on FRX94 it works fine.

Anyway, Camera and Video working great on Blackstone, even with using a custom root folder (andboot), 8GB SDHC and IPv6.
[Touch HD Android Development] konstantinos86:
Hey thanks for the tutorial!

I made the whole process but when i use android after some minutes the devices just stops responding. And i have to take the battery off to reset it. Also when someone calls me its doesnt do anything but the person who calls hears normally the sound of calling. What has gone wrong? anyone has an idea?? i ve done this proccess twice but no difference.
[Touch HD Android Development] -DR.V-:
Hi,

I've installed this build on my Blackstone . But when trying to boot it it doesn't pass the black screen with the logs. After a short time it repeats some kind of mdp_dma busy code and eventually it stops and the screen goes black or it starts loading Android ,but that doesn't stop. So the animation keeps being repeated over and over again without actually loading everything ,because it doesn't stop.

How can I solve this error and boot normally?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

Ik heb geprobeerd alles te installeren volgens de uitleg ,maar bij het opstarten van Haret start alles op ,maar bij het zwarte scherm begint het probleem. Hij laad alles gewoon normaal zoals het zou moeten ,maar de hele tijd word er door de witte status teksten command timeout , mdp_dma busy , end_request en I/O error gespamt. Uiteindelijk worden alleen nog deze achterelkaar weergegeven en word Android gewoon niet geladen .Ik had het ookal eerder geprobeerd bij een andere Froyo X build en toen had ik hetzelfde probleem. Hoe kan ik dit oplossen?

Alvast bedankt

[Touch HD Android Development] Mysteriej:
for some reason it didn't worked with fat32 i was getting "Failed to mount the SD card"..

"/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" error.

So i used "SDformatter v2.0" and it formatted it to FAT and it booted normally.
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
whatever does the job ;)
[Touch HD Android Development] levisornothing:
thank you so much... u rock too...
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:

Any solution?

[Touch HD Android Development] rb_daman:
I have the same issue. If you manage to figure it out, please let me know! I've just given up and am waiting a few days for a new package to come out
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
did you guys copy all the content in the kernel+libs zip to the sd card? also you must have the froyo x red installed that I provided
[Touch HD Android Development] rb_daman:
Yes, i believe i did. This is exactly what i did

1. Download all three files in the first post.

2. Copy all the files from the Froyo X Red Camera (24/02 update) to the root of a freshly formatted FAT32 8GB Class 2 SDHC memory card

3. Boot android (everything seems fines)

4. Copy the new lib+kernels to SDHC card (without editing conf file or anything to avoid Windows corrupting the file).

5. Open up the camera app and i get the following message - Cannot connect to camera

6. Replace the libcamera.so file with the libcamera.so.5mp version on VirusCrazy's page and removed the rel_path=andboot (as files are copied to root of sd card)

7. Same error message.

i get the feeling it's something small, but i can't figure it out. tried the entire process twice. perhaps i should delete all the files, re download them and try again from scratch?
[Touch HD Android Development] warfae:
it seem to work fine but after 5 min it freez i must remove battery to rebot.

any ideas how to fix it?/
[Touch HD Android Development] bassiebal:
try a fresh install and when you copy the new kernel and libs delete the old kernel. try that
[Touch HD Android Development] VuPhong187:
Its work for me.Many thanks! Im waitting for first NAND Android on my Blackstone!Thank you!
[Touch HD Android Development] caved:
Hi there,

To be completey honest: I have never succeeded to see the camera working on any android i installed. I think there are a few different hardware revisions of the BS. And i followed this guide to the letter. I keep trying when i see it working i report what i did.

Somebody know if I can configure the network settings manually? :confused: :confused:
[Touch HD Android Development] dengi_it:
Wow, I like very much this build, that is faster than the generic version I found in another thread here (re. 1.6) and has great programs and graphics.

At the same time on my device I have problems:

1) the device is very very unstable and it easily freezes and requires a reset (this was true with the generic version as well)

2) WiFi is not working (with the generic version it worked)

3) 3G is apparently working as the icon blinks, but no mail neither browser was working. The strange thing is that the sign-in to the Google account worked for a while, than stopped to work internet!!

Any advice?? I did not test the camera as the clean install (before the files to have the camera working) is not working upfront!!

Many thanks for your help and congratulation for the beautiful build!
[Touch HD Android Development] mickeystar:
my android has been successfully installed on blackstone but it always freezes so nothing respongs leaving me no other choice but to reset my phone. i cant use froyo x for more than 5 mins without having to reset my phone, ive gt the latest kernals and stuff.

things are working well on my hd but

1. battery life is real bad?? full to empty little use 3 hours??

2. i can't sync to pc so can't get all my numbers and email addresses??

help please

loving the android though, would love to use it all the time but battery life is so bad for me
[Touch HD Android Development] magfal:
gmail

For your sync issue you could sync your contacts and so on to gmail and then sync gmail with your phone

When it comes to your power issue have you made any changes to the settings and is your wifi on? Mine runs quite a bit longer per charge. also try charging it all the way while running windows mobile and then run android, afaik the battery meter and underlaying values is still a big kink in the kernel that is yet to be fixed.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/qtadb-android-manager-for-linux-windows-and-macos/ try using this software for communications with your touch hd while running android. if that doesn't work you might have other issues with your phone that i might be able to assist you with
[Touch HD Android Development] dugsoft:
thanks for help, sync to gmail worked fine :-)

wifi is off

as for battery

fully charged and then i installed juice defender ( something like that )

and wow it worked for me :D

fully charged 10pm last night flat @ 2pm today massive improvement

that included alarm this am and using google maps for 10 mins today

many thanks to all involved in this project i am loving it :p
[Touch HD Android Development] Talllsas:
Everything works (thank you very much!) BUT when I shut down the htc and I switch it on, it starts in WindowsMobil and not in Android. :(

I used already the new "startup". :(
[Touch HD Android Development] magfal:
The reason it starts back into windows mobile is that this is sort of a hybrid solution

Haret kills windows mobile(except for a few components) and then kickstarts android so you do not replace the system files.

When the nand kerel and bootloader are ready you can fully replace windows mobile.

Edit: try installing gen.y it is a program that runs early during the startup og windows mobile and lets you start haret early and if you so choose automatically:)
[Touch HD Android Development] Talllsas:
Thank you but no one else here uses gen.y and Android starts at the reboot anyway ...

How to install FRX05?
[Touch HD Android Development] littlewhitedog:
Hello,

maybe you saw that on other phones, but from what I know the blackstone do not yet boot Android at startup. From what I understood, it has to launch windows to initialize drivers. There are guys that are working on making it booting, there is hope but still work to do.

If you know someone that can boot his blackstone directly in android now, and everything is as functional as in the Froyo X Red or FRX04 or 5, note that everyone including me would be really happy, so please ask them to make a video and share how to do it! But I have to admit that I doubt you can find someone.

Cheers,

[Touch HD Android Development] dugsoft:
well been using this for a while now and i think it's great

but for me it has some way to go to become usable 24/7

the biggest problem i have it keeps freezing so i have to restart windows and then andriod.

even when not in use i come back 5 -10 mins later and phone has froze.

would be nice when we start straight into andriod :-)

i know this is no easy task making this work so hats of to all involved ;)

keep up the great work :p :p

About sd card and camera

Hello,

first of all im very happy with this release,

this is the best release ive ever tried,

i wold like to help with development, but i lack the time and knowlege to do so...

anyhow, thank you.

even though i like this one, i must say i have some questions on some bugs ive found, first time i tried the camera, it worked fine, no problems at all, and i was able to reload them from sd card ( dcim folder )...

i was fooling arround and installed facebook from app store, and try to upload photo from camera, now i have a message that says something like "insert sd card to use camera", well in available space i hace +/-15mb, before i had 1.8gb.

what happend that doesnt allow me to use the full sd card, in previous releases the same has hapened.. in storage, i checkj the sdcard, ant the space goes away...

i hope i made myself clear.....

another issue is flash video, ie youtube, cant get it to work. is it still off in this release?

other question, tried some drivers for other htc phones and have not succed to put usb sync or usb file transfer to work, anyone has managed to do that??

hope im not beeing anoying and i hope i macxe my questions clear, anyway, gratz for this release

MiAng

edit: forgot ot mention, space becomes available after reboot...

Hi all!

i have try the new kernel 20110317_184049 with this rom and it working very very fast and with good stability.

Camera Working

WIFI Working

Bluetooth Working at 100% (but seem the timeout for notify of request file transfer is very low)

3D Working greatly!

GPS Working Correctly! but it seems work at some people. <---- UPDATE!

I have installed another software like "SetCPU" and I have configured some profiles for standby (cpu max 128 and min 128mhz, with priority 60, ondemand), < 50 battery level (max 384 min 128, with priority 55, ondemand) and charging/full (max 528 min 128 with priority 50, ondemand) and it works very good and fast!

The durability of battery is in testing and now seem works correctly, approximatly drain 5/10% of charge in 2 hours, but I don't sure of this.

Tomorrow I can test it with full battery charge and when test is finished I make a report on this thread.

if you want download and test last kernel this is the url: glemsom.users.anapnea.net/android2/htc-msm-linux/
