Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [7/21] Fresh Froyo!
Hey guys, yeah the new setup is a little tricky, but I like trying to break my phone daily, so it was right up my alley to try it. LOL It doesnt have the convenience of a cab install on first install, however, once you get your SC card partitioned correctly, you wont have to do it again! (unless corrupt somehow of course) The installer is rather simple after that, and formats the ext2 partition for each new install! All you would need to do from then on is download the install pack, run the installer, and you're done. For some this wont be the way to go, that's for sure, and like has been mentioned we are working on fixes! I wanna smash my keyboard (but it was too expensive) because I fixed data yesterday morning had it boot, was signed into my account, working nice. I decided to update the gapps package and in the process broke something that was signed in the system, and the whole os stopped working with permissions errors. I wasnt too worried, at first, but now have been trying to a day and a half to recreate my apparently lucky fix... lol.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [7/21] Fresh Froyo!
thanks for all the work you guys have done. its probabaly more remarkable than most of us non-programmers realize.
ok dont kill me guys....i just got a tp2 and was really hoping to be able to use android on it and have a more practical setup for accessing gmail, google voice, etc...but i see the camera doesnt work (i dont own a digital camera so this is essentially my only camera thus i dont really have the convenience of being able to go to android atm)...regarding the camera, is this something which is possible to get working eventually? is anyone working on that or is kind of a dead end? Thanks! |
Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [7/21] Fresh Froyo!
My bad 2phone. I realized after I posted that, that you guys are on some other ish! I've yet to figure out exactly what you all are doing and by reading a few of the instructions, I must say that I ain't ready for that.
But good luck on your journey |

The new rootfs update should speed up your regular system install to close to the speeds (if not the same, it has been said) as the multiple partition install we have been testing recently. I have not had time to try it, as I will soon release a new ROM image.

The handset that you choose just coordinates with the keyboard you use. Its all controlled by the startup.txt file in your andboot folder. Read the FAQ, it will give you even more commands to use. |

I noticed the first few minutes with this new build were pretty slow and hangy, but after a few minutes it smoothed out and things have been fast ever since. WM is starting to feel slow and laggy now, even with the newest energyROM... (and thats a good thing for android!) :D You really need to give it some time after booting before it gets real smooth. |

To a point, yes. The more apps you have running the more your phones hardware will be working. Even in sleep these apps check for updates, and other tasks, using your systems hardware, in turn draining your phone. The less cpu, ram, memory access you are using then the less your battery is being used also. When we added that, we were on an older build, that would start almost every single application on boot. So not only was it draining batt, but it was draining system performance, and people thought that's the way it was supposed to be (opening all apps), so we had to mention otherwise. |
Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [8/18] MORE SPEED!!!!!
noob question but couldn't find answer in faq and elsewhere: if you install the files from the latest update (using .rar downloaded files, not the cab) what will happen to your existing Android set up...ie customizations, all the app downloads, etc?? Wouldn't want to lose all that with new install, obviously! if this has been covered somewhere just point me in the right direction..thanks!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [8/18] MORE SPEED!!!!!
I have downloaded the lastes updates from the updater. I am having slight problem. the phone boots over and then 2 things happen. 1) It sits there for a minute and then auto-resets. 2) before it auto -resets i have no service. Yes i have taken my Sim card out.
Any reason that this could be happening. I have tried this 4-5 time now and the same thing happens everytime. Any advice? Thanks!! |

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [8/18] MORE SPEED!!!!!
noob question...Which ones am I updating? Do i DL the newest kernal or is it just the rootfs?
|
Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [8/18] MORE SPEED!!!!!

The rootfs updater and initrd updater both work fine still, but they move the web page for the zimage/modules (kernel) so i will need to change that in the startup app as well. |
Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [8/18] MORE SPEED!!!!!
Sorry to answer my own question, but I thought I'd post what I did:
From the download, i copied over the following files to the andboot folder on my SD card: initrd.gz modules-2......gz (i.e. the modules file) rootfs.img system.ext2 zImage Note did not touch the startup.txt or the ts-calibration file. From looking at the directory, this noob would say all my personal stuff (apps, customizations, etc) are in the data.img file. In any case, after doing the above, the phone booted right up no problem. I presume this gives me the latest updates?? Anyone care to comment on what I did and how you verify this update from within Android?? {Answer to my question: in Settings, About Phone, the Kernel version matches the modules-X.X....etc number thus I will assume this is the latest and greatest now on my phone. Thanks again!!!} Thanks...this forum is awesome and certainly has greatly extended the life of many TP2's!! |
