[BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1 - Maintenance Release
1 Attachment(s)
FRX07.1 is here!! This is a maintenance release - basically taking the newest components to make a completely up-to-date (as of Sept. 1). Quite a lot has changed since FRX06 - the install process hasn't really, but be sure to read the changelog in the next post and the caveats in post #3! <<<This is a link to the... FAQ Click it!!>>> I have created a complete bundle of FroYo with a stable kernel from GIT ( August 19 / 1348 ), and rootfs from GIT (Sept. 2). Please, feel free to DONATE to the XDAndroid project! Every little bit helps! Directions: 1. Download the full bundle (zip). (Updated September 1 2011) If instead you just want the system.ext2 (zip) (Updated July 15 2011) file by itself... Don't download this if you're not sure! Grab the full bundle! 2. Extract it. You’ll see a folder, FRX07.1, copy its contents to the root of your SD card. If you want to run Android from a folder instead of all the files on the root of the card, follow the steps below. 3. Go into the STARTUPS folder. Grab the appropriate startup.txt for your device (if you don't know what device you have, you should read the FAQ), and move it to the root of the card (or where you run haret.exe from. If you want to change the location of the build, put a rel_path= statement in the cmdline section of the startup.txt. Mine is located two folders deep on the SD, so my rel_path=Androids/TP2Ref) 4. Screen calibration - you have three choices:
6. Run haret.exe.. Profit! :D Let it settle out on the first boot. Many have reported they had to reboot basically because it was so slow - if you let it sit for about 10 mins so the media scanner can go thru everything, etc. it will be much more pleasurable experience. If you want adb in and watch the processes via top, you'll see why the phone seems so slow - there's lots of background processes cranking because this is the first boot ;). Troubleshooting: Please read the... FAQ If you have any issues with the kernel, feel free to change it: There are some devices that are having issues with the newest kernels. Please see the kernel autobuild service to get archived kernels. Once you download a replacement kernel, go to where you run haret.exe from - remove your old zImage/modules-xxxxx.tar.gz. Take the new zImage/modules-xxxxx.tar.gz and replace the old ones, same folder - where you run haret.exe from. Make sure the ‘zImage’ is named just that. Do not rename the modules file, do not extract it - should be in .tar.gz format. See Incremental Updates for more information on updating the kernel and other components. Random issues can often be solved by forcing the system to create a new data.img. If you're worried about losing data (all user data is stored in the data.img!!), Titanium Backup works quite well. If you wish, you can rename the data.img to something else, and let the system create a new one - just to see if it resolves your problem. Similarly, if you wish try formatting your SD card - I prefer to use the HP Tool - do a full format, FAT32. Even though this build is considered fairly stable, you are more than likely going to run into issues. The next post will address issues particular to this build - PLEASE READ THESE before asking questions! Feel free to post questions in this thread, I will do my best to address them. Big thanks to stinebd for releasing the system image, and of course the other developers for their hard work on making these kernels available. |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
Just finished Dling it, waiting on the green robots to finish their dance.
BTW major props to all the devs who worked on this and the hard working slobs who put it all together. One question though was scbs ( battery reading from jonpry) added to this? EDIT := i think u have the MCC and NMC switched when i tired to put it the way you have it , android gives an eror that MCC must be 3 digits so switched them around also i think u also have to add #777 for the APN ( im sure u already did that but its for newbs like me who might not remember / know about it) Carrier-specific Settings Carrier MNC MCC MMSC Sprint 310 00 http://mms.sprintpcs.com/servlets/mms |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
For what it's worth, I did a completely fresh install on my (now unused) TP2. Created a new Google account, installed Opera then plugged it in to charge all night. This morning I found it had rebooted back into WM. No CDMA service - Wifi only, although the cellular radio was left on.
While I've been typing my TP2 has been booting back into Android. When it came up, I unlocked it and set it down, and it rebooted a minute or two later. So there is something very unstable with this. Hopefully it's a minor config tweak or something. My phone was in Airplane mode in WM prior to booting. I'm enabling the radio before booting into Android in case that has anything to do with it. |

If anyone can get some logs of these reboots to WinMo it would help as well... Thanks! |
Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
thanks, this update works best so far, fixed the errors I had with frx06 :D
battery life seems a little better, now that the power collapse worked over night. Seems to drain rather quickly while in use but I'll test it out today more |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
i like efile manager, it supports uploads to dropbox. Not that the dropbox app can't upload but might as well have a file manager that does it too while you are looking around :D

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
Hi, will try it out. Worth the wait (I hope). :)
I'll just do a clean install.... PS just got a new car which has great iPhone or Android interfaces... looks like soon the old TP2 is going soon.... |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
How long does it take for haret.exe to install? I left it running and it's still going after about 3 hours! Still working because the text is scrolling and the numbers in the first bracket are increasing, but it says "[16282.702941] [<c0072a90>]..."
I formatted my SD, copied frxo7 to the SD, copied the startup file for my RHOD400 into root, and then ran harot.exe. Any thoughts on why it's taking so long? |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
I was waiting to do it manually but it never prompted me for it.
Should I just stop it and use the ts-calibration.zip file or wait for the install to finish? |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
Awesome -- thanks so much everyone! Will report my results soon.
edit: Been running overnight and this morning, no issues whatsoever. Audio with the 3.5mm jack works excellent, there is nothing more I could possibly ask for, THANKS AGAIN! edit: I still have one weird thing where media/notification/call volume is stuck at zero until I make a call and hang up, but I reboot so seldom these days that it's not a huge deal. |

I can still see the light well enough to know if it is sleeping properly, but it doesn't glare in my eyes, so I consider it worth it. Your ADD might not be as assuaged, just thought I'd mention it. |
Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
i lose service when i get a sms. anyone else have this issue?

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
ARRRGH,
Thank you very much for the update. After some preliminary tests, (still with the old data.img), I found that whenever I turn on wifi, it still shows error. I just want someone who started out with a brand new data.img to confirm that it does work because everything else works include 3.5mm and BT. Overall, this is a very solid build with faster graphics. Thanks again! |
Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
Wahoo... March, April, May, June, July... finally :>)) NICE! thanks/d

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
working wonderfully.
the only problem so far is after overclocking in startup, as soon as I click haret I get an error message that it cant read acpuclock is that normal? |

I don't really know how that carrier works, but you guys with 3rd tier carriers will need to sort out issues and post what the solution is - because the major carriers all work, because the major carriers don't require a proxy to connect to the 'net ;). |

If that's the case, then I'd say you're trying to use wifi too quickly. Let the phone settle after it's done booting - especially on a fresh data.img, lots of crap happening in the background. I was cursing stine that the new su app didn't work at all, because it wouldn't come up for any of the root apps I opened. The UI was snappy, I was able to load up apps... I thought all was well, and then the su allow prompt appeared... so truly patience is a virtue here. Also, it seems certain BT headsets work and others don't. Don't tell people that BT headsets work, because not all do! :p Someone already filed a bug on the voice command BT issue, which makes me laugh since I said that BT audio routing won't work... Go figure. Lol I already said that, wth... |
