[BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1 - Maintenance Release
FRX07.1 is here!! This is a maintenance release - basically taking the newest components to make a completely up-to-date (as of Sept. 1). Quite a lot has changed since FRX06 - the install process hasn't really, but be sure to read the changelog in the next post and the caveats in post #3! <<<This is a link to the... FAQ Click it!!>>> I have created a complete bundle of FroYo with a stable kernel from GIT ( August 19 / 1348 ), and rootfs from GIT (Sept. 2). Please, feel free to DONATE to the XDAndroid project! Every little bit helps! Directions: 1. Download the full bundle (zip). (Updated September 1 2011) If instead you just want the system.ext2 (zip) (Updated July 15 2011) file by itself... Don't download this if you're not sure! Grab the full bundle! 2. Extract it. You’ll see a folder, FRX07.1, copy its contents to the root of your SD card. If you want to run Android from a folder instead of all the files on the root of the card, follow the steps below. 3. Go into the STARTUPS folder. Grab the appropriate startup.txt for your device (if you don't know what device you have, you should read the FAQ), and move it to the root of the card (or where you run haret.exe from. If you want to change the location of the build, put a rel_path= statement in the cmdline section of the startup.txt. Mine is located two folders deep on the SD, so my rel_path=Androids/TP2Ref) 4. Screen calibration - you have three choices:
6. Run haret.exe.. Profit! Let it settle out on the first boot. Many have reported they had to reboot basically because it was so slow - if you let it sit for about 10 mins so the media scanner can go thru everything, etc. it will be much more pleasurable experience. If you want adb in and watch the processes via top, you'll see why the phone seems so slow - there's lots of background processes cranking because this is the first boot . Troubleshooting: Please read the... FAQ If you have any issues with the kernel, feel free to change it: There are some devices that are having issues with the newest kernels. Please see the kernel autobuild service to get archived kernels. Once you download a replacement kernel, go to where you run haret.exe from - remove your old zImage/modules-xxxxx.tar.gz. Take the new zImage/modules-xxxxx.tar.gz and replace the old ones, same folder - where you run haret.exe from. Make sure the ‘zImage’ is named just that. Do not rename the modules file, do not extract it - should be in .tar.gz format. See Incremental Updates for more information on updating the kernel and other components. Random issues can often be solved by forcing the system to create a new data.img. If you're worried about losing data (all user data is stored in the data.img!!), Titanium Backup works quite well. If you wish, you can rename the data.img to something else, and let the system create a new one - just to see if it resolves your problem. Similarly, if you wish try formatting your SD card - I prefer to use the HP Tool - do a full format, FAT32. Even though this build is considered fairly stable, you are more than likely going to run into issues. The next post will address issues particular to this build - PLEASE READ THESE before asking questions! Feel free to post questions in this thread, I will do my best to address them. Big thanks to stinebd for releasing the system image, and of course the other developers for their hard work on making these kernels available. Last edited by arrrghhh; 09-02-2011 at 12:26 PM. |

Caveats:
That audio routing thread is in the RHOD section, and I've only tested it on a RHOD - but AFAIK it should work on other devices. Let me know. Last edited by arrrghhh; 08-04-2011 at 09:49 PM. |

Re: [BUILD] **Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07!!
The kernel found in the bundle download is not working, the device loops in the boot process with "smd_tty_buffer mismatch" error.
This kernel http://zimages.googlecode.com/files/...ackage.tar.bz2 is also unusable, the device barely responds to any input. |

Data *should* work fine... did you add the crap above? Time should get set from the carrier. Mine always does once it connects... I guess if it doesn't you can use ClockSync? On the backlight - do you have auto-backlight enabled in Settings -> Display? Turn off autobl and see. |
