Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Same dreaded error everyone gets:

I don't know where the "actual" error is. I don't know if anyone has found it yet... Bleh.

I'll see if some others can take a peek, as your logs do capture it well it seems... And Eclipse..? That's for development, you don't need it. You're on Windows right? Droid Explorer & you're done.

I also have a new build (check the site, the link will be the same but timestamp will update... Not on the filename, on the actual site.) Sorry, I didn't want to make it look like a whole new build, so I kept the filename the same.

Everyone should grab the full bundle. It includes a new .27 acoustic kernel that should fix some problems, and there's a lot of userland fixes:

• MMS should be fixed for Sprint users
• XDAndroid will now show as the provider
• GLES put back in (whoops)
• Network-based location put back in (which was working before, but this last boot it didn't...? Let me know on this guys, I might need another update... Definitely seems broken!! What the heck. There'll be another update, sorry folks.)
• hyc's dmesg binary baked into the rootfs (timestamps... in dmesg!)

Uploading now, should be live soon.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I am not sure what changed, but when I tried this most recent mini-update I have my sound working correctly. :)

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

There was A LOT of acoustic changes in this build. Glad it's working correctly - everyone else, download the full bundle, and REPLACE EVERYTHING!! I've added a lot of updates across the board, and I don't want people running partial stuff.

You should be able to reuse your data.img...

I'm still not able to get netloc to work... I am just scratching my head as to why it worked at first and now it doesn't. I'll keep working on it, but so far that seems to be the only thing I set out to fix that isn't.

Bring on that feedback guys!

Ok, Thanks man I'll jump on that and the new build tonight....excited!
Edit- I forgot to ask you if you still need CSV files?

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Yea, CSV's are still needed at the root of the SD card.... We haven't done much work on unifying the CSV's to be honest. Just squashin bugs right now, once we get down to a level where we're at least matching FroYo for oustanding bugs (IE fixed all regressions) I think work can start on implementing the CSV's into the system image and an actual release can be done!

Thanks to everyone for testing. Keep up the feedback, so we can get a solid GB build!

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

not seeing the new build when i click on the download from the for the build it brings up the date of 12-31-2011 which was the first version of this build. if i am wrong please excuse me i can be a bit blind sighted at times

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Read what I said. Filename won't change. Timestamp on the file, however, has.

:rolleyes:

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

don't know if it matters, saw it on last startup file for Rhod400 (Didn't check other ones)
but the line that says Shouldn't it be I don't know if the startup thing sees the set part when it is part of another word, I put the space in mine though when I saw it, just forgot to comment on it until I looked to see if anything changed in startup with this update

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Found what might be a minor issue. I tried to run updates from the market, and superuser gave "Package file was not signed correctly."

Anyone else get this error?

It is not that big of a deal, but might want to peek at it before it is is released.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

the superuser error is common, there is an app in market called superuser fix or something like that, it happens when devs put superuser/root roms that uses an older signed thing (don't know correct name), but the superuser app guy talks about it on his webpage

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

a) don't use Windows
b) don't use notepad

If you looked at this file with Linux, or Notepad++, it'll show up just fine. Sorry, not going to fix a trivial issue that only effects users when they actually look at the startup.txt's.

Yup, this is the correct way to fix it:

If you go to update SuperUser, at the bottom you'll see SuperUser Fix. Install that, it'll go thru its paces... it actually failed on mine at first, but the next run it said it was fine. Then update SU like any other app, should work fine.

I tried to fix this issue in the build, but it seems we can't if we want to build from source. Oh well... I didn't see any issues with SU being an older version, so there's by no means a requirement to update.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I just noticed my dial tones is back in android, for a time there it was silent. I don't know if this was part of the fixes or not but I did also noticed that the tones were out in WM. But I fixed it in WM and this is first time I've been in android since then and now it works, might be separate issues, but could there be some overlap into WM because of the .csv files?

If I run into the problems again I'll get logs this time, now that I see that getlogs app you mentioned

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I have absolutely, positively, no freakin clue what you're talking about.

Touch tones? When you are on the dialpad? Those have/should have always worked. I don't remember you ever mentioning this either...

Work great here, and I haven't heard anyone complain about touch tones not working in... well probably never.

We had a bug where the tones would increase in volume the more you would dial, but emwe tamed that bug.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

You were right. I found superuser update fix on the market, and it resolved the issue. Thanks :)

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

When I add the new kernel and zimage to the andboot directory (the root of the sdcard) and do exactly like instructed, the boot dies in the linux screen. When I rename the new kernel module the original module and use the original zimage it boots. Thanks for all the hard work. The 3.21 builds work great and boot fast. I overclocked to 730mhz and added a 3000mah battery and my Sprint tp2 runs fast and runs all day.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

What the heck are you talking about? If you're putting stuff in an 'andboot' directory, that's obviously NOT the root of the SD card.

Please put the zImage and modules where you run HaRET.exe from. DO NOT RENAME THE MODULES!!!

I swear I've sent you this link before...
http://xdandroid.com/wiki/Incremental_Updates

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

yeah its not in its own directory, everything is free floating in the root of the sd card

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Then what were you talking about with 'andboot' then!?!?

I don't know what to tell you. Stick with the bundled kernel if you can't figure out how to update. There's pretty much 0 .27 kernels you can use anyways... As I state in the first post (in bold lettering no less...) .27 autobuild service kernels will NOT I repeat NOT work!!

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Well I added the 3.2.1 kernel that was compiled today. I just left the original zimage that came with the bundle and and left the kernel with its 3.2.1 name and everything boots just fine. I've read the directions from the incremental updates page you linked me to but whenever I delete the old zImage and add the new one that came with the update the boot dies in linux.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I tried the new bundle and it is the same as the old one. Not just file names i understood that it is all the same. What file are you pointing me towards? Cause the one on the post is not what you say it is.
Im not trying to be snappy im just a bit confused.
Thanks,

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

LOL Dude he told you already....DL the zip then right click on the file and look at properties....look at the date....

I got Droid Explorer to finally finish installing and while USB debugging is checked in development, phone is charging, installed the USB drivers for SDK, I still cannot connect. Droid Explorer isn't showing the device and the phone does not display the debugging icon in the notification bar. Could it be because I don't have/know which drivers are needed for Windows?

Arrrghhh here's my CSV files, I figured while I was going with a fresh build I would go ahead and post them.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

sorry about the dial tones issue, i think it may have been just my phone but it's fixed now and I didn't change anything in android side, still using same data.img

I did notice that the phone's battery indicator (i know this isn't accurate or anything) but it seems to be stuck or likes to say it is around 90% even more than it did before. I just don't see the battery level dropping as much as it should. Again I know this is an old issue, and I'm charging phone to repeat it. Just saying it's what I observed, so I'm not sure if something in this update touched on it. If not, then it's no biggie since you already know about it.

If you want logs, how should I do this? I get how to get the logs, but should i just randomly use phone to run down battery?

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Dude. The zImage is the kernel. So swapping the modules does nothing, except break things like wifi.

Either you're replacing the kernel incorrectly, or you're not on the new HaRET/startups. Please ensure you're using everything from the first post.

Again, if you can't replace kernels just stick to the bundled stuff. Perhaps you should get comfy with FRX07.1 before trying a build that's still in testing? Just a thought.

Like I said, filename doesn't update. Here, I'll take a screenshot to show you what the hell I mean.

http://i.imgur.com/KYa5s.png

That was taken straight off of files.xdandroid.com - do you see what I mean!?! I only kept the same filename because these builds are in testing. Sorry, I'm not going to version these builds if there's just regressions being fixed... Seriously. There's no point in saving 5 different test builds because the first 4 all had something silly missing...

Hrm. I wonder if the problem is GB+.27. There's a bug, specifically with this GB+.27 setup where USB doesn't notify properly. I know this might be a pain for you, but can you try to use adb in FRX07.1, then try this build again? rel_path= and different folders on a big SD will save you some headache here ;).

I'm honestly not sure what else would be holding it up. I don't get any USB notifications in the bar either, but despite this adb still works great....

So get comfy with adb first, then try it on this build. Sorry for the pain...

This isn't a bug at all. No need for logs.

I kept my FRX07 build but never bothered with 07.1, but I would think it doesn't matter since I will be doing it to test the adb connection, just want to make sure that is sufficient?

It's no pain bro, I'm here to help. The more I learn the better I can help you and that is my goal. As soon as I get home I'll move FRX07 back on and test, should be around 8:00pm EST.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

07 and 07.1 are pretty similar. Just something to verify you have ADB working and functional, then you can move to this build and just try. Like I said, ADB will work on this build - but there's no indication in the notification bar if you're on .27.

Ok something is up or missing with either SDK or Droid Explorer. My FRX07 shows debug in notification bar but still no device in DE. Do I need any other packages from SDK?

What about in Device Manager? Did you follow the Windows guide?

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Arrrghhh, the build is great. Good job, man.
The new build seems more responsive and faster than the Jan 2 one. While using the phone, I did not find any issues with sound. Calls were fine, ringtone was fine regardless of whether you pick up or ignore the calls. I guess the only issues that I found were some known issues:
-the 3.5mm headset jack did not work.
-camcorder does not work (it just shows the Not Responding: Force Close-Wait-Cancel)
-the MMS did not work (I am a sprint user, Rhod 400). When I try to send, it just shows Sending... indefinitely. Even with Go SMS, same thing the little 'send' arrow just keeps showing indefinitely. I can't even receive. I send pics to my phone to both my google number (even tho GV does not support mms) and the sprint number. nothing.

Those are the issues that I found using the phone. I have never gotten any logs in my life :). But I will try to learn how to use GetLogs. Do you need logs for any of the issues that I listed above?

Bluetooth - no clue, never use it.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I have a question about incoming call behavior.
On Froyo when a call would come in the phone would wake up and show the answer call slider bar. Now on GBX0B I will sometimes have to press the power button to wake the phone after it has started ringing, then unlock the phone, and then slide the answer call slider bar. Any one else seeing this behavior, or have I just screwed up a setting somewhere?

Never mind... I think I found the problem. It seems that I am trying to answer the phone to quickly, and was hitting the power button because I had a ring tone, but a screen asleep. If I let it ring for a bit it wakes up. Is there any kind of setting to change the speed that the phone wakes upon an incoming call?

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Wait... I use 3.5mm on my RHOD400 every day - what do you mean it doesn't work!?!? It works great!!

Camcorder.. I thought worked, but to be honest I think I only tested photos, not videos...

MMS works, even on Sprint. detule tested it (although he doesn't use it often, he did successfully send/receive.) Did you configure your APN? Also, you should know... MMS does now work with Google Voice. They haven't integrated it into the UI (web or app) and I don't think you can send MMS - but you can receive now. They come in as a funky looking text on GV, and then you get an email with the pic. Pretty ghetto fantastic, but it works I guess. Better than the MMS disappearing into neverneverland.

I wonder what kernel you're on as well...?

I've had this with FroYo for sure. Although usually I don't have to hit power to turn it on... I hate to say it, but I've seen native Android devices do this before - where it rings, you only see a lock screen... you unlock, and then see the answer screen. Happened to my gf a few times on her Optimus.

What kernel?

Edit - just saw your edit :p. I've always had a problem with the phone not waking up quickly enough to answer a call. Quite often I just flat-out miss calls.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Oh nevermind. i was testing the headset jack while previewing ringtones rather than using youtube and other media :).

As for the camcorder, I've used different programs, but I found the same issue. When I switch from camera to camcorder, everything's fine. the problem starts when i click the "Start Recording" button. That's when the phone doesn't respond, and it shows the Not Responding pop-up. I use kernel .27.

MMS is weird. I've told two friends to send me pics on both numbers. They both use Iphone. From one of them, i get nothing at all. From the other, sometimes i get it, but when it comes, it just shows the Download button, and once i press the button, it never really downloads. Sometimes i get the photo regularly. I will test it some more today with different people and see if the problem is with my phone.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

MMS sucks... I'm not sure we'll ever have it 'stable'. Google Voice used to just send the MMS message into neverneverland - and I'd never even get an indication that I got it. Now, with the GV updates, I at least get an email with the message.

See here to read more.

As for the camcorder, thanks for the report. I'll look into it... I know I didn't test this ;).

If you can provide logs from the camcorder lockup, that would help. I'm not going to be able to really look at it until Sunday. Goin campin!

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I also got the camcorder problem, I could start it, and it would seem like it works but when you wait a bit it'll show force close/wait window

after you close it, when you try to load up camera again it doesn't work [crashes]
here's my log of it, sorry if it isn't right one, I just loaded up the getlog app and clicked the get a file button :S is there another way to get logs?

I did edit out my phone number/wifi name in the logs though

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

When you use music, it leaves the speaker on after youre done. I think it does this with all the kernels. you can really here the speaker crackling after the app is closed.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Can't reproduce. With the music app that comes stock, after I press the pause button, I can hear static for maybe half a second after which i can clearly hear it go completely off.

Logs, or it didn't happen.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

I have found two very small bugs. Frequently the wifi connection will not change it's icon from white to green when connected. Still works, but the indicator just doesn't change color.
2nd when using the caps lock the keyboard caps lock led will stay lit after leaving a typing space, closing the slider, or sleep mode. It will then type in lower case with the caps lock led lit.
Like I said very very minor, but something I noticed.

Overall the package is much more stable than Froyo. Very good job. :)

W/AudioTrack( 1373): obtainBuffer timed out
 

i just installed the latest GBX0B_Full_Bundle_2011.12.30.zip downloaded at 8:30 pm pst on jan 21st on ROHD 400 sprint TP2.

i have copied the latest csv files from windows directory to the root folder as per the instructions.

everything works fine except the speaker for incoming calls or the music played through speakers. no ringtone or music thru the speakers

here is the msg printed in get logs.

Re: W/AudioTrack( 1373): obtainBuffer timed out
 

posted too early!
got it working after 3-4 reboots, dont know how it started working.:confused2:

the bluetooth however cannot be turned on now. here are the logs

Re: W/AudioTrack( 1373): obtainBuffer timed out
 

This is useless out of context. If you have the complete output of GetLogs please attach that.

Which kernel are you on? Again this excerpt is useless without the complete log, but there is a different forum for posting impressions of the +.39 kernels.

Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0B 2.3.7 Build
 

Ok, I don't know if i did it right. I rebooted the phone, tried the camcorder which didn't work. went to GetLogs, and pressed Just a File. Then i transferred the data.txt file into my computer and put it in a zip file. then attached it here. Hopefully what's in that file makes sense to you :)
