Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800) - PRE-ALPHA (not yet usable)

Wanted to chime in with my current status of android...

It's a little bit unclear who is posting what, and where it's coming from. For instance, we have the HTC wave with a set of modules/zImage/conf, and another on connect-utb, and other various links in threads to driver packs. I'm not at all complaining, because it's great to see many people working on this all at once, It just took me a while to figure out what was the most recent build..

Along with the 1-27-10 build from the XDA thread, It seems that the stuff posted on the wave on 1-27-10 works better than the stuff posted on 1-26-10 on connect UTB, stability is better, Wifi didn't work with the UTB stuff, and a download from the market crashed the phone. I'd recommend using the stuff from the wave at this point. Results with the stuff from the wave:

- Using my values of 800,875,175,675,450,575,800,175,175,175 in there fixed the screen issues, the conf file included seemed to have the old values in it.

- Upon my first boot, sound didn't work, and attempts at playing sound crashed the phone. Rebooted, and it works. Strange..

- Calling worked with no dialing issues, and the phone was good after a call. Mic didn't work, but I didn't dial out before booting, so I didn't expect it to.

- Overall stability seems OK, much better than with the connect-UTB build.

- Sleep caused the phone to vibrate every couple seconds using the wave build. Kind of annoying. Not sure why it does that.

- Screen brightness is still wonky. I'm assuming disabling it in WinMo would fix it, but I didn't do that.

- Wifi/CDMA data work. Downloaded some apps from the store with no problems. The Wifi wouldn't start in the connect UTB build, and CDMA data seemed to crash the phone.

- Overall faster, touchscreen seems a little more unstable then previously. Sorta hard to drag the notification bar down. Not bad at all, though, might just be how a resistive screen is.


So, again, just to help out people struggling, this is the combination of files that worked the best for me:

1) Official package labeled '24.01.10 NEW BUILD STRIPPED' from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=601751

2) System update labeled '25.01.10 NEW SYSTEM UPDATE:' from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=601751

3) Delete the modules/zImage/startup, and replace them with the items from the HTC wave. If you aren't on the wave, then get an invite to google wave and join the HTC wave. Search around for how to do that..

4) Edit the file 'eclair.user.conf' in the '/conf' directory, replace the string of numbers at the bottom with these:
800,875,175,675,450,575,800,175,175,175


Should help get everyone on the same page... I hope this helps!
