It's weird because it booted up before fine, but now it just freezes.

If it booted before using the current AIO, try a different card.

If it booted before using an older AIO, replace components until it starts working. Delete data.img for each attempt. Start by replacing zImage, modules-*, startup.txt. Next try rootfs.img, initrd.gz. And so on.

I found the AIO package from 5-11. I'll start with that and slowly replace items from the new AIO. I'll update what I can if i find the problem item.

Solution for my RAPH800 haret.exe freezing: I found that replacing the initrd.gz with the latest (provided as a link in post 1) took care of it. To be honest i'm a little confused, i believe the version packed in the latest AIO is the same that i downloaded, but I've successfully booted into XDandroid! Thanks for the help hamagc and sfhub, got me pointed in the right direction. Great advice!

I have Haret freezing too. If I reboot WinMo, I can run Haret again and it works. Seems If WinMo's been running for more than a few minutes Haret freezes. Fresh restart always gets it to work for me. I'm using the latest initrd.

Anyone have an up-to-date donut setup available? I downloaded the files from the xda wiki but as I try to roll the kernel and rootfs forward I get problems.

Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro -- Now working on Verizon! And with GPS!

Wondering if anyone out there has a Verizon Raph500 that used the new all-in-one package from the 13th and got everything to work. I am new at this but I know how to read and the instructions stated that I would see 4 folders and 12 files, I only have seven. Where do I begin to look to figure this out and how I didn't get all 12 to show up?

I got it to run. just follow the directions on the first page. Basic extract all the files - copy the andboot folder to your storage card - select the startup config file for your phone and copy it to the andboot folder root and launch haret...

everything worked for me -- the data required that I add the apn for it to work; but everything else worked fine.

7 files?

in windows? are any of the files hidden files? do you have your computer setup to show hidden files?

Is there something special that needs to be done to get adb working?

I have the toolkit and the usb drivers ready to be installed, but when I plug in the phone, windows doesn't give any indication of recognizing the device so I have no opportunity to install the drivers.

On the phone side, I can see that it understands it is being plugged in because the dmesg shows hsusb OFFLINE --> ONLINE.

ps indicated adbd is running.

I tried setting debug.adb.usb to 1, rebooting, and verifying it was set to 1, but it didn't make a difference.

I tried running usbdeview on windows side and getting rid of HTC drivers, but none were installed.

I'm using the 6/6/2010 kernel currently. I initially was using the 6/14/2010 kernel, but noticed there were some USB changes there so I went to the older kernel to see if it made any difference.

I noticed that usb0 usb ether was up, so I tried ifconfig usb0 down. That was successful in shutting down usb_ether, but had no effect on recognizing the device in windows.

I have had echo 2 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/usb_function_switch in my eclair.user.conf the whole time, which I understand changes the USB device from multi-device mode to single.

On the phone side, this is what I see when plugging in the usb cable

Code:

hsusb: OFFLINE -> ONLINE

hsusb: reset controller

ulpi_write: timeout: reg: 0x48, var: 0x4

ulpi_write: timeout: reg: 0x10, var: 0x3A

ulpi_write: timeout: reg: 0x10, var: 0x3B

usb: notify offline

I think my main problem is the device isn't recognized under windows and once I get past that point everything will work fine.

I tried 2 different usb cables. The primary cable I was trying worked fine for sd card transfers so I think it is fine, but tried another cable anyway.

how funny, i was trying to get this going this morning so i could move some apk's for flash from my computer to xdandroid. couldn't get it to connect either. adb.exe devices came up empty.

I did not know that I should be looking for hidden files before sending it over to the sd card. Anything else I can or should be looking for too?
