Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

Well i was talking to the Kernel gurus about this an with this caliber of debugging power at the hardware level im sure everything can be figured out..

im tempted by the Evo as well. I might just get it but programming is a old passion of mine. I'll prob continue butchering code until the the tp2 gets a solid android running.

Glad to see this progressing and thanks for shedding some light on this subject

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

I just rememberer asking PHH awhile ago about the sound and he said the rhodium was more like the iphone than any of the other phones. maybe the answer lies in the android on the iphone that just got finished. heres the link if that helps http://linuxoniphone.blogspot.com/20...uietly-in.html wish I knew more to try and help

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

If im not mistaken that code was already examined. No luck with it.

We are still waiting on BinaryDroid on xda to see if his hardware debugging can help. So far i havent heard back from him.

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

I think I remember reading that there was some code that disabled the sound in Android because without that line of code in there there was cracking sounds in the speaker and such. I wonder, kinda like how the earpiece didn't work unless you were in a call whilst booting Android. Well, If they can take that line of code out, and then load some music playlist in windows media player while booting Android, would it be worth a shot?

Just an idea.

Its been 5 days since a reply in this thread so I'm bumping it up to ask if theres been any more progress? Winmo is pissing me off more and more every day and sound is the only thing keeping me from using Android all the time....

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

Yep. BinaryDroid on the xda fora is still working on it as of the 10th.

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

i waited all week on the irc room hoping BinaryDroid would jump in. I think he is just really busy right now to do anything heavy.

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

I was just wondering if the startup sound in wm somehow triggers the speaker? since there is no sound during haret maybe thats the problem. im guessing here but maybe some of the higher ups should try and replace wm on their phone and see if the sound works then :scratch:

Re: Why sound isn't working on the TP2.
 

I was thinking the same thing and called my voice mail with the spkr phone on while booting android, I also tried playing an MP3 while booting but no luck.

I did notice that if you check your dmesg in a terminal emulator, you can see were the boot process tries to initiate the sound system but it errors out saying its already started.

Now im wondering if we can get some kind of bare bone Winmo rom with no sound drivers and then try launching android to see what happens.
