=; PSA: we do NOT condone the pressuring of devs in this thread

*fine print* no devs were hurt in the making of this post... but they very well may be soon...:bs:

I love the blazen theme....But I can deal with Ref build. Too bad can't package it in an apk so we can have one build and theme it ourselves

arrrghhh Can we revisit the data.img for a second, I saw this post again from a while back.

I'd love to read up some more on how to expand as you explained above, but have had no luck finding that info.

Also, my data.img file persistently has a modified date of 9/29/10, but always seems to retain my most recent settings/changes, is this file the ONLY place settings ect are kept?

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Hi, take a look at this post:

[HOW-TO] Increase the size of data.img for more "Device" storage - xda-developers

Good luck,

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Awesome, thanks for this!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Can anybody on Sprint pull their mms file from \system\apps and post it up? I was trying some stuff in another thread to see about mms and borked my texting, and don't want to have to set up android completely yet again. Thanks!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

give me about 30min and ill pull mine for ya. Is that what it called? just mms?

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Yeah, I believe it's the only MMS file in there. I ended up having to use android mate to copy and paste it in there, so you may need to use that app to get a copy out of there. Much appreciated!!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

I tried getting this for you too but for some reason I dont have a system directory in my sdcard.


Tried looking under windows/ system/ but apps is not in there.

What is the exact name and I can search for it and post it.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

If you use android mate while in android, keep going up one or two levels and there is a folder named system, in that folder is one titled apps and in that folder is mms.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Ok I was looking for it through active sync. Its strange the file never showed up. but found it and Hope this is what your looking for

and happy to see that MMS is being worked on.

Since I dont have it on my plan if I recieve an MMS then I have to pay for it eventhough I never see it. Which SUCKS!!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Thanks much for posting that up. Now I gotta see if it will work for me or if I'm setting up everything again. And let me clarify regarding working on MMS... I'm not a developer, hell, I'm still a noob with this android stuff (you can tell by me not backing up a file I was pasting over, lmao). I was just following a hunch with a couple of other geeks in another thread and unfortunately, as far as I can tell, that ain't gonna work that easy. Me trying a mod here and there is NOT the same as ACL or the other developers and the work they do, I only wish I had 1/10 of their ability!!!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

So far so good, I ended up reloading some older files and nothing was working, but when I loaded up the "stock" apk it's back working as it should. I truly appreciate your help on this!! I almost texted you previously from winmo cuz I know you're on this port (you called me last fall when you needed help flashing your phone and I gave you my number to talk through the issues, don't know if you remember or not) and I'm glad I didn't since it would have charged you. But thanks again for your assistance!

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

I do remember. haha Just happy I could one day repay the favor. Since you helped me pop my flashing cherry. http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...f?t=1288102094:occasion5:

I have unlimited texting so It wouldn't have charged me a thing. I only get charged for MMS. Those dont cost much either only 20 cents so I dont really get bothered by them.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Hey, wanted to give an update on my Android stability situation. I have a brand new Kingston SDcard, and loaded up the latest kernel and rootfs files (on October 22nd, I think). I'm still having stability issues, so we can probably rule out that it was my SD card. So I notice Android will crash back into Windows frequently when locking the screen, sometimes when dragging the taskbar down, stuff like that. It never restarts when just sitting idle. One time I had the deep sleep issue.. and I found it interested, because I tried calling my cell phone from my desk phone, and it went straight to voice mail.

So I did notice something I wanted to ask about. Previously on an older Android build, Android would occasionally lock up and boot itself. What I mean by this is that it would hang, and then it would go back to the "XANDROID" boot screen animation, and Android would pretty much restart without going back into Windows. I was okay with this since it was just kind of a brief interruption. Now whenever it hangs up it crashed back into Windows. I'm wondering if these hangs are related, but something has changed through the versions that causes it not to restart Android anymore? This was personally preferred behavior.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Still no wifi. when i select it to turn it on it goes on for a second then goes off while its scanning. I have installed the newest files from Main Page - The XDAndroid Project and Linux kernel zImages and modules for htc-msm-linux.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Try using older modules/zimage files.

Had the same problem recently. Sometimes the new modules don't install due to old ones still in the data.img.

Backup your apps and settings and delete your data.img.

Question about this, probably been covered before but... what's the best way to backup your apps and settings before deleting the data.img file?

On a side note, just had another deep sleep.. had to pull the battery. Are there any known fixes to this or is it still a work in progress?

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Titanium Backup. Sleep has been an on-and-off issue. If it concerns you, stick to WinMo. Same goes for data loss - if it concerns you, stick to WinMo.

I concur Titanium Backup is just awesome.

Never realized just how nice Titanium backup was until I used it today to completely rebuild my TP2. Between sashimi for WM and titanium backup, I was done in no time! From a hard reset to having two OS's up and running in a flash!! pun intended....lol

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Hi, I have a question on the 3.5 audio jack and the external audio through the microusb jack.

Are these supposed to be working or not?

Also i noticed that video playback for mp4's doesn't seem to work.

not sure if that is the norm or i did something wrong.

Thanks,

Edwin

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

The 3.5 audio jack doesn't work yet but there is a dirty fix where you put your earphones in the 3.5mm jack and then boot into android although it cuts all sound from the external speaker. The mp4 is being worked on, there are things that are making android not reading the mp4 files correctly just yet. Just keep waiting and I am sure that this will all be eventually fixed. The devs are have made bounds and leaps so just hold on for the ride

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

just tried this and it still not working, turns on for a second (says scanning for networks) then turns off. I never see an icon for it in the top bar. Now I get google gapps errors.
If I start from scratch what order should i install the files and which ones should i use that others are having success with? thanks.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Order of the files shouldn't matter, assuming you have all of them. Start with a fresh clean build - don't update anything. See if it works for you. You can also experiment with older/newer kernel/modules & rootfs if you want.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Still having the same issue with XdaAndroid Startup 1.3 (as well as previous versions) where when I press update, it downloads the files, but when I go to unzip them it fails out with an error message.

I used Total Commander to examine the zip file because it shows a files size of 9.13mb, but when I try to extract, I get the error message...

All this is after a fresh backup and wipe of my card so I'm clueless as to what the issue is...

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

for the past couple weeks I've noticed an issue where sometimes when people call me I can't hear them but they can hear me. I usually have to hang up and make an outgoing call in order to hear them. Anybody else having this issue?

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Apologies if this has been addressed, but a search didn't find anything--

If I use Google Maps, the phone then never goes into sleep mode (the LED stays red) and it drains my battery like crazy. Force quitting also doesn't help. Basically, if I choose to open Google Maps, I am resigned to restarting my phone afterwards, or else the battery will drain... ideas?

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

GPS knocks out sleep. So either use the power control widget & disable GPS, or go in Settings -> Loc & Sec -> Uncheck "Use GPS Sats". Sleep should now be fine.

Hrm, that seems opposite of most. However, it seems almost every time I receive a call either the radio cycles, the phone reboots, or it turns on the speakerphone and reboots within Android.

I've said it before - I'll probably say it again - I avoid calls like the plague in Android for the time being. There's some hope with a new ril wrapper, but so far no joy on that.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

I've had similar experience with the android shell restarting in the middle of phone calls. I rarely have the no sound issue, but I regularly get it switching to speakerphone all by itself and then restarting the shell. What's odd is I can keep talking while Android restarts, but right before it the shell is fully loaded it seems to drop the call.

Luckily, I don't get a whole lot of calls, but since I help run our enterprise servers, I need to have the phone working flawlessly to use Android all of the time. I do plenty of testing, but at the end of the night, I usually flash back to wince for the next day :(

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Update available through start up utility...
(edit)...or maybe not. Mine locked up during update.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Im having the same problem under rhod400 too

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

What's the date on it? Today? I grabbed one earlier today so I'm thinking it's the same one Sovereignty posted about on the update tool thread over @ XDA last night.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

When I press update, I get the "Update Server not Available" pop-up.

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

I read about that and what I was told was to keep tring it and it will work, sometimes its takes a couple times!:thumbright:

Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES!
 

Update is 10/23, worked for me first time.
