[PRJ] Google Android Centre v2.6 [6Mar10] | Wing Linux - Elf / Elfin

[jeremy89632]

Welcome to the Discussion and Development Lounge for Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=222615&d=1251737343
Click here (http://qik.com/video/2775388) to view the booting of android on HTC Touch Elfin during the HTC Hero Launch (http://jeremygohblog.com/2009/09/06/htc-hero-launch/) event in Singapore with the CodeAndroid.org (http://CodeAndroid.org/) team.
- Running of 0.4pre3 (Updating that soon)
In Short, this project is about porting Google's Android (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)) OS (Which is running under Linux) into our devices.
This project is still in BETA, and there are many features not available yet.
We believe that we will move from strength to strength.

This thread is originated from the Linwizard, Now What? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4439572#post4439572) thread. As we found a new goal, we decided a new page is necessary.

--

How this works?
Windows Mobile runs on your concurrent phone, so when Android is being boot up on the device, it will actually 'kick off' the RAM working concurrently on Windows Mobile and use the entire RAM for linux itself.
After soft-reseting, everything will go back to normal.

News Centre
News updates for this project.

Updates:
Milestone: Release 0.5 for Wing Linux


This release will primarily focus on upgraded system components.
Linux Kernel 2.6.32 or later (aligned to upstream)
Audio/wifi support
Power Management
Full support for the HTC Artemis


0.4.2 Released!
Features include:
- Runs on Android V1.5r4 (Cupcake)
- Additionally, 0.4.2 includes the ability to reboot your phone from Android -- simply hold down End and select Power Off. Your phone will reboot.

Wanted
Developers for Sound needed for device.

How to get started with Wing Linux?
- Backup your SD Card and Phone before doing anything!
We have a few cases with wiped out data, better do it, guys!
1) Go to the Wing Linux's Website (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki)
2) Get Wing Linux's 0.4.2 (here (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux/0.4.2/cabs/wing-linux-0.4.2-rootfs.cab/download))
3) Get our very own HTC Elf/Elfin Cab (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux/0.4.2/cabs/wing-linux-0.4.2-elf.cab/download) (Dont Worry, what you press on the phone will be what you get!)
4) Install both Wing Linux 0.4.2 cab and the Elf cab in your storage card (So make sure you have at least 512mb free storage space in your memory card)

How to get Google Android started?
1) After installing the cab as mentioned above, go to programs, and start Wing Linux
2) Press run!
3) After seeing 20000++ lines of code, you will reach an install screen (which is blue in colour)
4) You will take sometime there as our phones do not have a physical keyboard. So wait for it to install.
5) After that, the calibration utility will start, make sure you tap the right corners of the screen (The calibration process is only ONCE, so once you click the wrong corners, good luck, we need more steps to get it back working!)
6) Android will start loading and you are ready to get blasted!

Red button - End Call
Center (joystick) - Menu
Up (joystick) - Up
Down (joystick) - Down

- It works for both Windows XP and Vista (There will be prompts here and there)
- Settings for network card
ip: 10.100.0.2
mask: 255.255.0.0
2) Download WinSCP (http://winscp.net/)

QNA

Q: Which Device Can Run This?
A: A GSM HTC Touch / It works for both Elf and Elfin (Yay!)
If you use a CDMA version of HTC Touch, please go to your Vogue forum.

Q: Is my phone Elf or Elfin?
A: Go to Start > Settings > System > Device Information > Hardware tab, if the 'RAM size' shows 64MB it's an Elf, if it shows 128MB for RAM and 256MB for Flash then it's the Elfin. (This doesn't matter as Wing Linux is able to run on both, just added this question for reference only)

Q: How big is this thing?
A: It is about 300mb (Estimated), as the image is already 250mb.

Q: My phone cant connect to the network
A: Please switch off the Sim Password on your phone using Windows Mobile first before coming into Android.

Q: How to get Data (GPRS) working on your device
A: Go to your settings menu in Android and change your APN options, you can get that from your carrier.

Q: How to re-calibrate the screen?
A: Go to storage card, than go this folder called 'linux', than open default.txt. Look for the line that says "set CMDLINE", add "reset_ts" to it.
Remember to remove that once you're satisfied with the calibration.
(If Microsoft Word asks you to save it in their format, always say no)

Q: If I am using the Herald Cab and running on the outdated 0.4pre3, how can I get the correct key mappings?
A: See here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4539762&postcount=111)

Q: I have some questions about Android
A: Post it here and I should be able to respond as I am using an Android phone at the moment.

Q: I have more questions ...
A: Post it here and someone kind will be able to respond. Do not PM me. Thanks :D

Q: I wish the hang out and chat about Wing Linux on the net in real time.
A: Join us on the IRC: #wing-linux on freenode.org

[jeremy89632]

Sure man, my pleasure to help.

[ayyu3m]

[MCXSC]

It's a real Android OS? What's with WM? And how is the speed on the Elf?

[t0nil0]

now im booting elfdroid with the correct keymaping( thanks a lot jeremy)

thumbs up to you!!!
very tidy post...
and developers, thanks a lot...
now im gonna play with my elfdroid...

on question?

there is microsd card support?
and camera support?

why dont you make a list of the full features of the elf/in and which one works in the current project?
it will be great!!!!
lets calibrate the screen...
...
and i think that this android its a battery eater...


thanks to everybody!!!

[t0nil0]

ok so i have been following this:
2) Rename the downloaded file to zImage and copy it to /Storage Card/linux
3) Modify your default.txt to have an MTYPE of 2372
4) Delete your rootfs.img file to force the installer to re-run (and to clean away any custom qwerty.kl files you may have)
5) Boot into Wing Linux and let the installer run
6) Your Key Mappings is up to date and you do not need to modify it anymore!

i get into android but keys arent mapped...
any clue?

thanks in advance!

[Hordo]

Tried to install but it seems to be hanging in an htcharald login: screen where nothing happens. When i push some buttons some letters appear but there is no key to accept apparently. Using ELF for this. Also there are multiple cabs in the Wing Linux package, one big one and a couple of smaller ones that all seem to be the same thing (if you install them they will keep telling you that they will uninstall the old version before installing.)

Any tips?

[t0nil0]

instal first the big cab and then th e herlad one...
after that donload the zimge-elf and change its name to overwritte the original...
then you have reach as far as me... you can run android, just wait
BECAUSE THE FIST LOADING IS AS SLOW AS BALLS...

good luck!

[czdjj]

it looks great, many thx
To Hordo:
I installed wing-linux-0.4pre3-rootfs.cab and then only wing-linux-0.4pre3-herald.cab from second link.
Now copy zImage for functional keyboard and Go testing.
Many THX :rolleyes:

EDIT: Incoming call doesnt ring

[Hordo]

Thanks for the help, still trying :)

[t0nil0]

ok keys working... i have tried some things...
alrma menu doesnt work properly... its closed so fast and its imposible to se the hour!
btw its posible to activate the sound?
and the phone capabilities?

sim card can be ulocked but i cant found my contact on it!
i cant send sms

cheers

[hovie]

Hey does anyone knows how to make the phone vibrate? I know we haven't got sound working yet but how about it to vibrate? :P

Sorry for my few posts asking this question but I nobody seems to have the answer :P

EDIT: I now have a problem with messaging, when I try opening messaging program, a window appears saying something with ONLY a button to Force close, bud I hadn't time to read :S Anybody got an idea? (I worked before I receive a SMS and sent one yesterday, but today, I couldn't get it working after several reboots)

[paulocar]

try to read before asking things that are well documented
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki/Status

[hovie]

I've read it but it still doesn't give me an answer! I'm not talking about sound but about PHONE TO VIBRATE when receiving a SMS (and I received a SMS and set phone to vibrate so I don't see the reason why it doesn't =/)

[seferismo]

can this be reversible? after i install this can i go back to wm easily or flash again a new wm OS?

thanks!



i try to install but im getting 1.5kb of file both herald and wing linux cabs??? and it dont appear on programs :( i wanted to try android... what cab i should use?


see here


1 wing-linux-0.4pre3-gene.cab 1.5 KiB
2 wing-linux-0.4pre3-herald.cab 1.6 KiB
3 wing-linux-0.4pre3-prophet.cab 1.5 KiB
4 wing-linux-0.4pre3-rootfs.cab 36.8 MiB
5 wing-linux-0.4pre3-wizard.cab 1.6 KiB

[crapula512]

EDIT: Incoming call doesnt ring

no, because the sound is not working yet, and it might be a long time before it works.

Hey does anyone knows how to make the phone vibrate? I know we haven't got sound working yet but how about it to vibrate? :P

no, vibration is not working either.

can this be reversible? after i install this can i go back to wm easily or flash again a new wm OS?


you dont lose your wm by doing this. android must be started from within wm, so u can get ride of it by just deleting the folder.
a soft-reset on the phone will take u back to wm.

[hardikrajgor123]

great post mate....but I think the author should edit the first post or give a link as to things that arent yet supported on our phone

[gsk_lnl]

First of all Thanks a ton, for your post. I was eager to try Andriod OS. I followed your given steps and successfully was able to run Andriod but I am facing some problems, hope you can help. First problem is that my SIM does not have password, but still it says NO NETWORK (didn't remember exact error message), therefore cannot make any calls. Another problem is that when I press the end call button (the RED one) it keeps on showing a verbose view and some scrolling text after every few seconds. Whats the problem and how to rectify it?

Thanks a lot.

[seferismo]

what cabs i should install?

1 wing-linux-0.4pre3-gene.cab 1.5 KiB
2 wing-linux-0.4pre3-herald.cab 1.6 KiB
3 wing-linux-0.4pre3-prophet.cab 1.5 KiB
4 wing-linux-0.4pre3-rootfs.cab 36.8 MiB
5 wing-linux-0.4pre3-wizard.cab 1.6 KiB

installing #5, then #2 it says "the previous version of Wing-Linux - Board Support will be removed before the new one is installed." and when i click OK, it install but i dont see Wing- linux on programs... is this correct? im getting 1.6kb??????

[hovie]

You're wrong on the cabs to install:

-FIRST install rootfs.cab
-THEN herald.cab,

it's said in the tutorial on first post...

And it won't be in programs, for me, I installed it on storage card, and I now have a folder directly on storage card called "linux"

[hovie]

Sorry souble-post

[htcfreak]

Great work "jeremy"..!!!

The best compiled wing linux data until now..!!!

But don't you think its too early to open this tread, cause still the kernels haven't been written yet & we are also not able use audio yet..!!!

[kkrraazzyy]

nice thread dude

[10lele84]

I installed the handroid is perfect ... but I do not standby! How you can solve the problem? Thanks

"4) Install both Wing Linux 0.4Pre3 cab and the Herald cab in your storage card (So make sure you have at least 512mb of storage space in your memory card)"

[spadival]

Excellent thread.. I request everyone to read the first post (which is clear and concise) before asking questions.

If some one can translate and add to the first post, in languages other than English, I think it'll benefit quite a few non-English speaking users. As for my language skills, My Italian is worse than my German (which is non-existent) :p.. So I'll give it a miss.

[eL_Jee]

Excellent work guys!

Unfortunately I don't have time to check everything out, but will definitely check back in a couple months. I'm sure you guys can make a functional OS from this one.
Good luck developing

[iBrahimovich]

[thaksa]

If sound and wireless are work, these ll be very interesting.

How this works?
The concept behind this is simple.
It uses a software called Linwizard (Haret) inside Windows Mobile to boot Android up. (Something like VMWare / Parallels / VirtualBox )
--

How to get started with Wing Linux?
1) Go to the Wing Linux's Website (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki)
2) Get Wing Linux's 0.4Pre3 (here (https://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre3/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre3-rootfs.cab/download)) (Link Fixed)
3) Get the HTC Herald Cab (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre3/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre3-herald.cab/download) (I know, we are using an Elf, but this Herald Cab seems to be the most compatible with our device for now. There will be a new one coming up :D)
4) Install both Wing Linux 0.4Pre3 cab and the Herald cab in your storage card (So make sure you have at least 512mb of storage space in your memory card)

6) Android will start loading and you are ready to get blasted!

How to get the correct key mappings on the phone?
- After setting up the whole Google Android system, you may find that some buttons do not work / or some does not correspond.
To solve this issue:

1) Go to this site (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/198699/linux_wing/zImage-elf) and download the file.
2) Rename the downloaded file to zImage and copy it to /Storage Card/linux
3) Modify your default.txt to have an MTYPE of 2372
4) Delete your rootfs.img file to force the installer to re-run (and to clean away any custom qwerty.kl files you may have)
5) Boot into Wing Linux and let the installer run
6) Your Key Mappings is up to date and you do not need to modify it anymore!

What is not working yet?
- Camera
- Sound
- Wireless
- Bluetooth
- Standby Mode
- "Power Off" phone.

From the status of this project, you CAN use this phone for ..
- Surfing GPRS (Needs some setting up to do)
- SMS

ATTENZIONE: Questa guida non è aggiornata, qui (http://wmitalia.netii.net/index.php/android-su-wm.html) puoi trovare una guida all'installazione dell'ultima versione.

Benvenuto nel thread su Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=222615&d=1251737343

- Su 0.4pre3
In breve, l'obbiettivo di questo progetto è portare Android (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)), il sistema operativo Google (basato su Linux) sui nostri dispositivi.
Il progetto è ancora in fase BETA, e mancano ancora molte funzioni,
ma procediamo un passo alla volta.

Questo thread è nato dalla discussione Linwizard, Now What? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4439572#post4439572). E, avendo raggiunto nuovi traguardi, abbiamo ritenuto necessario creare questa pagina.

Versione Guida: 2.5.2
--

Come funziona?
Windows Mobile è avviato sul telefono, così quando Android si sta avviando, "ruberà" la RAM da Windows Mobile, in modo da averla tutta disponibile per Linux.
Per questo, per tornare a WM basterà un soft reset.
--

Le guide sono in seguito alla sezione News

Centro News
0.4Pre4 Rilasciata!
Novità:

Android può ora ricevere le chiamate dal primo avvio
Nuovo supporto AT&T APN
Supporto per la tastiera di HTC Opal, Pharos e Excalibur
Sistemata la funzione reset_ts in modo che non vada in loop
Rotazione dello schermo con tastiera estraibile sistemata per Wizard e altri
Nuovo supporto per Elf e Elfin
Risoldo problema nel montare schede SD su Android
Aggiunto un driver fake per la batteria, così non è più necessario usare /sys_dev cludge per avviare Android
Altri bug risolti



Come iniziare con Wing Linux?
- Fai un backup della memoria esterna prima di qualsiasi operazione!
Alcuni di noi hanno perso tutti i loro dati, quindi meglio essere prudenti!
1) Vai nel sito di Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki)
2) Scarica "Wing Linux's 0.4Pre4" (qui (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre4/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre4-rootfs.cab/download))
3) Scarica l' "HTC Elf cab" qui (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre4/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre4-elf.cab/downloaddownload) (Finalmente un file cab per noi :D)
4) Installa Wing Linux 0.4Pre4 cab e l' Elf cab nella scheda di memoria (Sono richiesti almeno 512mb di spazio libero)

Come far partire Google Android?
1) Dopo aver installato i due file CAB come descritto, vai nella lista dei programmi e avvia Wing Linux
2) Premi il tasto Run!
3) Dopo più di 2000 linee di codice, partirà l'installazione (riconoscibile perchè di colore blu)
4) Ci metterà un po' di tempo. Il nostro dispositivo non ha una tastiera fisica, quindi dovremo solo aspettare.
5) Dopo questo, si avvierà la calibrazione dello schermo (Il processo di calibrazione si avvierà solo una volta, quindi fai attenzione!)
6) Android si avvierà! :D

Come avere la mappatura dei tasti corretta?
- Dopo aver installato Google Android, potresti notare che alcuni tasti non funzionano o non hanno la funzione esatta.
Per risolvere:

1) Vai qui (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/198699/linux_wing/zImage-elf) e scarica il file.
2) Rinomina il file scaricato in zImage e copialo nella cartella /linux , nella Memoria esterna
3) Modifica il file default.txt impostando un MTYPE di 2372
4) Cancella il file rootfs.img per far partire di nuovo l'installazione del sistema
5) Apri Wing Linux e premi Run, e completa di nuovo il processo di installazione
6) La mappatura dei tasti è aggiornata! :D

Comandi!
- Assicurati di aver aggiornato la mappa dei tasti.
Tasto verde - Indietro
Tasto rosso - Fine chiamata
Tasto centrale (joystick) - Menù
Su (joystick) - Su
Giù (joystick) - Giù
Sinistra (joystick) - Sinistra
Destra (joystick) - Destra
Fotocamera - Indietro
Volume su - Alza volume
Volume giù - Abbassa volume

Come copiare file / installare applicazioni in Android sotto Windows
1) Installa i driver (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=84122&d=1209554226) 'Ethernet Gadget' (Per far riconoscere il telefono al PC)
- Funziona sia con Windows XP che con Vista
- Impostazioni per la scheda di rete
IP: 10.100.0.2
Mask: 255.255.0.0
2) Scarica WinSCP (http://winscp.net/)
3) Installalo :D
4) Usa le seguenti impostazioni all'interno di WinSCP:
- Server: 10.100.0.1
- Username: root
- Password: wing
5) Per installare Google Android Apps
- Scarica l'applicazione ;)
6) Metti i file .apks nella cartella /system/app/directory usando WinSCP
- (es: scp xxx.apk root@10.100.0.1:/system/data/)
7) Fatto! Comparirà nella lista delle applicazioni!

Cosa non funziona ancora?
- Fotocamera
- Audio
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- Modalità Standby
- Spegnimento del dispositivo

Ora come ora, con Google Android puoi ..
- Navigare via GPRS (Necessario modificare alcune impostazioni)
- Inviare e ricevere SMS
- Utilizzare il Calendario
- Gestire i Contatti

Domande e risposte

D: Su quali dispositivi può funzionare?
R: Funzuona sull' HTC Touch GSM / Sia Elf che Elfin

Q: Il mio Touch è un Elf o un Elfin?
A: L'Elfin ha 256mb di RAM, l'Elf ha una quantità minore. (Questo non riguarda il funzionamento di Wing Linux, che si avvierà senza problemi su entrambi i dispositivi)

Q: Quanta memoria occuperà tutto questo?
A: Prenderà intorno ai 300mb, l'immagine da sola è 250mb.

D: Il mio telefono non si connette alla rete
R: Disattiva la password della SIM da Windows Mobile prima di avviare Android.

D: Come far funzionare la trasmissione dati (GPRS)?
R: Leggi questo (http://www.androidonhtc.com/carrier_network_settings).

D: Come ricalibrare lo schermo?
R: Vai nella scheda di memoria, quindi entra nella cartella 'linux' e apri il file default.txt. Cerca la linea "set CMDLINE", e aggiungici "reset_ts".
Ricordati di rimuoverlo una volta calibrato lo schermo.
(Se Microsoft Word chiede di salvare il file nel suo formato, di' sempre di no)

Q: Se sto usando il cab dell' Herald e sto usando la versione 0.4pre3, come posso avere la mappa dei tasti corretta??
A: Guarda qui (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4539762&postcount=111)

D: Ho un'altra domanda ...
R: Scrivi qui e ti risponderemo.

D: Mi piacerebbe discutere di Wing Linux con altre persone su internet.
R: Entra nel canale IRC #wing-linux su freenode.org

Added Italian Translation to front page.
I will be adding some information soon.

[jacobras]

Great work! Works fine on my Elf :)

Maybe something for the FAQ:

Q: How to change language?
A: Go to Settings -> Locale & Text -> Select locale and select your language.

Btw: my screen is in portrait, not landscape.

[hovie]

Yes there's a rootfs.cab...Wing-linux.pre04.rootfs.cab or something..

thanks to jeremy and all the others helping out to make it fully functional...

waiting to see it working fully....

any ways but does any one know how to get the on screen keyboard...???

[paulocar]

the keyboard should come up when you put control over a input field. try a double tap with the stylus if don't shows at first try.

[thebond]

hey thanks got it...!!!:):)

[jeremy89632]

I added some new stuff at the front page.

I have added some extra QNA questions.
Added on how to install apps on android.


More updates is on the way.
I will sometimes do minor updates without posting over here.

Just keep track with the version numbers and you wont be wrong.

[malintzin]

Yesss!!! I'm ready for the test!
Long time I look for possibility to have Android on my HTC Elf.

Hey dude, look: until a few days ago, we all were desperate to get android running on elf someday, and now, it is there :D

So I assume someday we'll complete a full and stable version ;-)

[xiaohaiqiu]

It works nice on my Elf,but could anybody tell me how to control it?:confused:
I even don,t know how to go back to the desk...
Thx a lot!

You can do it using the Camera button

[xiaohaiqiu]

you mean long press? Let me have a try,THX!!!!!;)

[Cero92]

you mean long press? Let me have a try,THX!!!!!;)
No, just press it once...

Did you follow these steps?
How to get the correct key mappings on the phone?
- After setting up the whole Google Android system, you may find that some buttons do not work / or some does not correspond.
To solve this issue:

1) Go to this site (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/198699/linux_wing/zImage-elf) and download the file.
2) Rename the downloaded file to zImage and copy it to /Storage Card/linux
3) Modify your default.txt to have an MTYPE of 2372
4) Delete your rootfs.img file to force the installer to re-run (and to clean away any custom qwerty.kl files you may have)
5) Boot into Wing Linux and let the installer run
6) Your Key Mappings is up to date and you do not need to modify it anymore!

[paulocar]

we should work on a key-function guide. I didn't know the camera button function, so far I was using press green button several times to get out of where I was.

[Cero92]

You're right... Keys were wrote in the dev thread, this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4334152&postcount=492) should be the post

[xiaohaiqiu]

No, just press it once...

Did you follow these steps?

Oh Lord~
I didn,t notice it :eek:I think I should do it now...And thx again!

No problem :)

[paulocar]

thanks in advance

[sabtuzdeamon]

Great work!

Is it 'one way' installation, or after soft/hard reset is still WM?

[Cero92]

Great work!

It's loaded from WM, so after a soft reset you are in WM again.

[malintzin]

I also like the new models but Elf is very useful and I don't need to carry in the pocket with my keys and RG's and etc the new devices :-). Yes they are much better and faster but Elf look more handy for me ... Also I will not sorry so much if I hit it or lose in the sea.

[jeremy89632]

Guide updated to new version 2.3
Added new section on key mappings!

Dont Worry, even though I maybe a little lag on the updating here and there because I am using Opera Mini to read the topics here, I will update it within a few hours later when I get back from school!

All the best!
Jeremy.

Did you install them in the storage card?
Which error do you get?

[biaozy]

yes, in torage card
just install the two .cab without replacing the zImage file
after press run in Wing Linux, i cant get lots of code and install screen.
just a black screen, maybe be powered off

thanks a lot

Strange... It should install also without the updated zImage...
You can try to replace your with the new one, but i don't know if it will solve your problem

[biaozy]

replacement solved my problem, but i get a prompt to login and i cant input, amazing...

[gustavorobles]

are there any solution for the sound problem?
please, work at this

[jeremy89632]

Its working by the dev community.
You can ask the wing linux team.

No solution yet.

[sabtuzdeamon]

I can't wait for full usable ROM with android ^^

[biaozy]

i got the android by doing all things what i did yesterday again. i dont know what is the matter and i lost all my data in storage card, damn it

[hayer]

i got the android by doing all things what i did yesterday again. i dont know what is the matter and i lost all my data in storage card, damn it

same thing happened to me i think our storage cards didnt have enough memory for wing linux so it had to create extra space.

[biaozy]

same thing happened to me i think our storage cards didnt have enough memory for wing linux so it had to create extra space.

At first, i have the same guess at the data lost. actually, i lost all my files in 2GB storage card, so, guys, back up data before testing

This problem never occurred to me. i had tried this with as low as 300mb free space in my SD card.. nothing happened..all my data is intact.....may be i should do a backup...just to be safe..

[hovie]

Never occured to me neither in a three-time reinstallation

[jeremy89632]

Terribly sad and sorry for those who loses data after installing this.

I have added and ask users to backup their device and SD before installing Wing Linux.

Do remember to keep at least 300mb ++ free on your SD Card to prevent installation issues.

Cheers.
Jeremy.

Sense UI is part of a package inside HTC Hero. Not inside a core Android, which basically means that Sense UI is a package which HTC added itself.

Thanks and Cheers.

[jeremy89632]

Guys, Thanks for your supportive feedback.
I will look into some of the comments.

Cheers.

[stalion]

i know, its just the UI, Jeremy89632.. it was just a comment, cause i think its a pretty interface.. and i like it and wanna share with all of you.

[Lakim]

Thanks guys, keep it up!
I still love my Elf, and it would be so awesome to use Android on it!
Watching this thread closely.

[add2shaik]

It would be very nice if we get this Android .nbh format just like what we have for Windows Mobile. Everybody hope this will be happen in soon. Thanks for your wonderful effort. :)

[sabtuzdeamon]

On my elf it works little bit slowly as it shoud, but I think, it's because of it's emulated, am I right?

sry for my bad english ;)

[crapula512]

that wont happen anytime soon if ever, and seems too dangerous to me.
anyway, you can achieve a similar thing by booting directly to android with EOL (http://vivien.chappelier.free.fr/typhoon/index.html).
however i havent tried it and u will need some knowledge to do it.
someone had mentioned it in the old linwizard thread.

maybe someone can request darkstar to make a SD image with eol + android for each supported device at the same time that he makes the cabs.

On my elf it works little bit slowly as it shoud, but I think, it's because of it's emulated, am I right?

sry for my bad english ;)

haret is a bootloader not an emulator. so no, its not emulated in the sense of a virtual machine (like vmware). its more like a grub version that can run from inside windows.
once u are inside android, WM is completely gone.

EDIT:

i think the old eol repo is not working, try this one:

[cacahahacaca]

I installed 0.4pre3 on my Elfin a few days ago, and it booted OK a couple of times (though it would then act very strange with the keys). Now when I try to start it it never goes beyond the screen with the big Android logo on it. I'm going to try to reinstall Wing.

Otherwise, any ideas?

Thanks

[cacahahacaca]

Nevermind, I reinstalled and I'm in now...

[cacahahacaca]

Has anyone tried using the GPRS while roaming? I conifgured the APN for my carrier, selected the circle next to it so it became green, and enabled "Data roaming" under "Mobile network settings". However, when I try to use the Browser it says that there is no connection.

Meanwhile the connection icon at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator shows full strength with an upper-case R.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Maybe you can breathe some life into it? Otherwise, Have some patience..

Beggars (include me in that list) can't be choosers, you know.

[caraudio014]

wow this looks like it will be fully complete soon cant wait till all functions are installed! Thanks for all your efforts gents!

[gustavorobles]

I wasn't begging I was asking about some news ;-)

I can't breathe any life in it :-( I'm a noob

And actually, THIS IS the most patient a can be :D

[jeremy89632]

My Exams is in 2 weeks, I will be totally not on XDA Developers from 1 October onwards till around 10 to 12 october.

No updates to the development branch at the moment as the main developer, Darkstar is working on a new build.

So keep it cool guys!

[hovie]

Thanks for keeping us up dude ;-)

Good luck for your exams ;-)

Sure you're gonna pass :-)

[crapula512]

little update, Development Version 0.4pre4 Is Out!

All,

The subject says it all! Go and get it in the downloads section or on the main project page!

Features from 0.4pre3 include:

- Provisioning patch added so Android can receive calls on first boot
- New AT&T APN support
- New board support for HTC Opal, Pharos, and Excalibur
- Fixed reset_ts functionality so it doesn't loop forever
- Video rotation on keyboard slide fixed for Wizard and many others
- New keybindings for Elf and Elfin
- Fixed SD card mounting in Android
- Added new fake battery driver so no more /sys_dev cludge is needed to boot Android
- Lots of miscellaneous bug fixes

thx darkstar

EDIT:

i tested it, and it worked ok out of the box.

[add2shaik]

Here is the direct Link...this time we got some sutff for Elf/Elfin....:)

http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/

[jeremy89632]

For 0.4pre3 using the Herald cab ONLY:
How to get the correct key mappings on the phone?
- After setting up the whole Google Android system, you may find that some buttons do not work / or some does not correspond.
To solve this issue:

1) Go to this site (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/198699/linux_wing/zImage-elf) and download the file.
2) Rename the downloaded file to zImage and copy it to /Storage Card/linux
3) Modify your default.txt to have an MTYPE of 2372
4) Delete your rootfs.img file to force the installer to re-run (and to clean away any custom qwerty.kl files you may have)
5) Boot into Wing Linux and let the installer run
6) Your Key Mappings is up to date and you do not need to modify it anymore!


Reference is attached here, just in case any users wish to roll back to 0.4pre3

[jeremy89632]

Yes!
I know you guys have been really anxious and pressing F5 on this page every single moment!

I have re-updated the tutorial to include support for 0.4pre4, I will check back once in a while, even during my exams!

The Very Best!

[disney2002]

How about other devices that the cpu is not OMAP850??

[cacahahacaca]

Thanks so much jeremy!!! We really appreciate your dedication. Good luck on those exams :)

[sendhiloo7]

Hi Great job man.
anyway to work mic & speaker???

I Think some drivers problem(u known that)

[cacahahacaca]

I just installed the latest 0.4pre4 version, but I still can't get GPRS to work while roaming (I already enabled the option for data while roaming). Has anyone been able to do this?

Thanks.

[osrogon]

Just tried the new version and I still get stuck at the same place: everything seems to work fine up to the point were I get a text login screen and nothing happens. If, at that point, I reset the phone, all the data in my SD is gone and 250mb are missing from the total size of the SD (reformatting the SD recovers the missing 250mb).

Could it be possible my board is not supported? I had to take the phone for service because the digitizer stopped working and the board was replaced.

[htcfreak]

BRO whatz new in 4 from 3..???

Cause still we have limited use on ANDROID..!!!

How long do you wait? Sometimes it seems to be stuck but it's still installing/booting.

[osrogon]

How long do you wait? Sometimes it seems to be stuck but it's still installing/booting.

I've been waiting up to one hour and nothing ever happened....This afternoon I've been able to login using ssh. It seems that for some reason, is not booting into android. Manually running /etc/init.d/android will get me to the calibration screen, but it stops just after the calibration.

One more thing....is it normal to get segmentation fault errors during the installation process?

[jeremy89632]

Yup, its very normal.
I am still surprised why people's data still get wiped out!

[hovie]

QVGA - yay ^^

[hovie]

Yeah but what does it bring up?

[paulocar]

for us(elf or elfin owners) pretty much anything, this is just a SDK for the next release of the OS, this doesn't mean that our port may include anything of this anytime soon

[hovie]

Yeah but I assume that "QVGA suitable" thing means they're gonna release some ROM to install Android on any phone are't they?

[sabtuzdeamon]

That's stupid that they didn't release ROM for other WM devices, isn't it?

[ivanmmj]

Good guide, but there is one thing that bothers me:

It uses a software called Linwizard (Haret) inside Windows Mobile to boot Android up. (Something like VMWare / Parallels / VirtualBox )

This is incorrect. It doesn't boot Android in a VM. Haret actually kicks out WM from RAM and boots NATIVELY the linux kernel.

[jeremy89632]

Sorry for the wrong info, as the thread has mentioned, its not 100% accurate and thus this is a human error.

I'd really like to give this a go, but I keep getting errors on first run. No errors on install onto storage card, but when I go to run wing, I get a EXCEPTION while reading from address XXXXXXXX error. Close that error and it pops back up with a different address number. ????? Any ideas?

Hey do you think this is replacement for Android? I don't this so...we are looking for a complete Android run on our Elfins...we are sure we get it soon :).

B/w thanks for sharing Androkkid.

Well I know its not ANDROID but just gives some feel of the OS, & as I said its just for a change..!!!

Is not as hectic as Wing Linux for people who just wanna see ANDROID..!!!

But I do appreciate the HARD WORK goin into WING LINUX..!!!

[stalion]

:D thanks heartsurfer008!!!!!

[jeremy89632]

Androkkid?
Thats in the development and hacking forum right?

I saw it, but I thought that was just a theme for windows mobile.
How was it?
Is it laggy?
Running on which system? SPB Mobile Shell?

It's a stand-alone application, like iFonz

I am VERY impressed with the progress of this project, I'd just like to say... I haven't put it on my Elf yet purely because I don't have the time to go playing around with it, but no doubt later on in its life I'll install it and have a play.

Keep up the good work all those involved, and it really is good work!

Witaj w dyskusji i temacie rozwoju projektu Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=222615&d=1251737343
Kliknij tutaj (http://qik.com/video/2775388) żeby zobaczyć uruchomienie Androida w HTC Touch Elfin na spotkaniu prezentującym HTC Hero (http://jeremygohblog.com/2009/09/06/htc-hero-launch/) w Singapurze ze wsparciem grupy CodeAndroid.org (http://codeandroid.org/).
- Uruchomienie wersji 0.4pre3 (Aktualizacja niedługo)
W skrócie, ten projekt jest poświęcony portowaniu systemu Google Android (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)) OS (który działa w oparciu o Linuxa) na nasze maszyny.
"Projekt wciąż jest określny mianem BETA i nie wszystkie funkcje są dostępne.
Wierzymy, że uda nam się udoskonalić projekt."

Temat jest oparty na temacie "Linwizard, Now What?" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4439572#post4439572). Kiedy mamy inny cel, zdecydowaliśmy się zrobić osoby temat.

--

Na czym to polega?
Telefon wciaż pozostaje na platformie Windows Mobile, ale gdy włączysz Android zabija on procesy Windows Mobile i uruchamia procesy Androida, więc używa RAM, jakby był to główny system, a nie wirtualna maszyna.
Po soft-resecie, wszystko wraca do normy i z powrotem używasz Windows.
--
Nowości
Nowości dotyczące projektu.

Aktualizacje:
Milestone: Wydanie 0.5 dla Wing Linux

Wydanie skupia się na ulepszeniu komponentów systemu.
Linux Kernel 2.6.32 lub nowszy (aligned to upstream)
Dźwięk/wifi działa
Ustawienia poboru energii
Pełne wsparcie HTC Artemis


0.4.2 Wydane!
Zmiany:
- Bazowany na Android V1.5r4 (Cupcake)
- Dodatkowo, w wersji 0.4.2 można resetować telefon z poziomu Androida -- przytrzymując wciśnięty klawisz End i wybranie opcji Power Off, nasz elf(in) powinien się zrestartować.

Poszukujemy
Potrzebujemy programistów do naprawienia funkcji związanych z podsystemem audio.

Jak zacząć z Wing Linux?
- Zrób kopię zapasową karty pamięci i pamięci telefonu przed zrobieniem czegokolwiek!
Było dużo wypadków z niechcianym usunięciem danych, na wypadek lepiej to zrobić!
1) Wejdź na stronę www Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki).
2) Pobierz Wing Linux 0.4.2 (stąd (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux/0.4.2/cabs/wing-linux-0.4.2-rootfs.cab/download)) (Poprawiony link)
3) Pobierz osobny plik .cab (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux/0.4.2/cabs/wing-linux-0.4.2-elf.cab/download) dla HTC Elf/Elfin (To są ustawienia klawiszy. Poprawia to błędy, wynikające z ustawień pod inny model telefonu!)
4) Zainstaluj Wing Linux 0.4Pre4 i plik .cab dla Elfa na kartę pamięci (Upewnij się, że masz około 512mb wolnego miejsca)

Jak uruchomić Google Android?
1) Po instalacji powyższych plików .cab, wejdź w programy, uruchom Wing Linux
2) Wciśnij RUN!
3) Po zobaczeniu około 20000++ linii kodu, przeniesiesz się do ekranu instalacji (niebieski ekran)
4) Instalator poprosi cię o wciśnięcie przycisku. Poczekaj, instalacja rozpocznie się sama, ponieważ Elf nie ma klawiatury.
5) Po tym, zacznie się kalibracja, wykonaj ją poprawnie (Najlepiej to zrobić już za pierwszym razem dokładnie, gdyż trzeba będzie wykonywać dodatkową pracę, żeby to powtórzyć!)
6) Android się uruchomi i przygotuj się na szok!


Klawisze!
Zielony przycisk - Wstecz
Czerwony - Odrzuć połączenie
Środek joysticka - Menu
Góra (joystick) - Gó;ra
Dół (joystick) - Dół
Lewo (joystick) - Lewo
Prawo (joystick) - Prawo
Kamera - Wstecz
Dźwięk (+) - Pogłośnienie
Dźwięk (-) - Przyciszenie

Jak kopiować pliki / instalować aplikacje na Androidzie używając Windows
1) Zainstaluj te sterowniki (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=84122&d=1209554226) 'Ethernet Gadget' (Żeby telefon łączył się z komputerem)
- Działa z Windows XP i Vista
- Ustawienia kart sieciowych
adres ip: 10.100.0.2
maska podsieci: 255.255.0.0
2) Pobierz WinSCP (http://winscp.net/)
3) Zainstaluj!
4) Ustawienia WinSCP:
- Serwer: 10.100.0.1
- Użytkownik: root
- Hasło: wing
5) Żeby zainstalować programy na Google Android.
- Najpierw pobierz jakiś program!
6) Wklej pliki .apks do /system/app/directory poprzez WinSCP
- (np: scp xxx.apk root@10.100.0.1:/system/data/)
7) Koniec! Powinno pokazać się w liście aplikacji!

Co nie działa na chwilę obecną?
- Aparat
- Dźwięk
- Sieci bezprzewodowe
- Bluetooth
- Tryb czuwania
- "Wyłączenie" telefonu.

Na dzień dzisiejszy, możesz używać Androida do ..
- Przeglądania internetu przez GPRS (Potrzebuje ustawień)
- SMS-owania
- Kalendarzu
- Przeglądania i edycji kontaktów

FAQ

Q: Na czym mogę używać Wing Linux?
A: Na GSM HTC Touch / Działa na Elfie i Elfinie.
Jeśli używasz wersji CDMA HTC Touch, wejdź na forum dotyczące HTC Vogue.

Q: Mój telefon to Elf czy Elfin?
A: Wejdź w Start > Ustawienia > System > Informacje o urzadzeniu > zakładka Sprzęt, jeżeli w polu 'RAM size' pokazane jest 64MB to Elf, a jeśli pokazano 128MB RAM i 256MB Flash to Elfin. (Nie ma znaczenia bo Wing Linux działa na obydwóch, pytanie zostało tylko dodane do zbioru)

Q: Ile miejsca to zajmuję?
A: Przewidziane jest koło 300mb, gdyż sam obraz zajmuję 250mb.

Q: Nie mogę połączyć się z siecią
A: Wyłącz kod PIN używając Windows Mobile przed uruchomieniem Androida.

Q: Jak uruchomić połączenie sieciowe (GPRS) ?
A: Wejdź w ustawienia APN i ustaw punkt dostępu według operatora sieci.

Q: Jak odnowić proces kalibracji?
A: Wejdź w folder storage card, potem do folderu o nazwie 'linux', i otwórz plik default.txt. Przejdź do linii, w której jest tekst "set CMDLINE" i dodaj po nim "reset_ts" (bez cudzysłowiów).
Pamiętaj, żeby po wykonaniu kalibracji usunąć wcześniej dodany tekst z tej linii. W przeciwnym wypadku kalibracja będzie się odbywać za każdym włączeniem Androida.
(Kiedy Microsoft prosi o zapisanie w jego własnym formacie, zawsze wybieraj nie)

Q: Jeżeli używam pliku .cab od HTC Herald z wersji 0.4pre3, jak mam zdobyć poprawne ustawienia klawiszy?
A: Przejdź tutaj (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4539762&postcount=111)

Q: Jeżeli mam więcej pytań ...
A: Napisz tutaj post i oczekuj na odpowiedź. Nie wysyłaj mi prywatnych wiadomości. Dziękuję.

Q: Chcę otrzymywać aktualne informację o Wing Linux.
A: Odwiedź nasz kanał IRC: #wing-linux na serwisie freenode.org

I have followed the steps and it boots fine with the known issues but i noticed that after soft reset and return to winmo that the battery drop sharply ( about 1% for every minute use in android omg thats huge even if it work someday our batteries cannot support it )

[cmos486]

Excelent Thread!

[baucha]

hey finally android seems to be working in my elf :D I got this working after following those simple instructions in the 1st post. It looks greaaaaaat. Waiting for donut :p ... Hope things will get better with each release/update and it will be v soon ...

this is the summary of wot i found in my elf:

Phone (call) = Can call and connect but cant hear anything. (sound not working)
SMS = works
GPRS = no tested as cudnt find a way to set APN
Touch Screen (including keyboard) = works
wifi = doesnt work
Bluetooth = doesnt work
Power button = doesnt work (poweroff = doesnt work)
hibernation/suspend = doesnt work

- Запуск 0.4pre3 (Скоро обновление)
Этот проект о переносе Google Android ОС (который работает под Linux) на наши устройства.
Этот проект еще в стадии БЕТЫ, поэтому еще много чего не работает.
Мы верим, что нам это по силе.

Этот тред начался с треда Linwizard, Now What? (http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=ru&sl=en&tl=ru&u=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php%3Fp%3D4439572&rurl=translate.google.ru&usg=ALkJrhjFdKvyrWQAibCE2o4vn-SIUAoVIA#post4439572) . Появилась новая цель и мы решили открыть новый тред.

--
Как это работает?
Windows Mobile постоянно запущена на вашем телефоне и когда Android начинает загружаться, он "выкидывает" из RAM работающую Windows Mobile и использует всю RAM для себя.
После софт-ресета телефона Windows Mobile запустится снова.

Новостной центр
Обновление новостей для этого проекта.

Обновления:
Мы так же работаем с проектом Linwizard для включения наших изменений в основное ядро. Пока у нас есть ядро, загружающееся с поддержкой карт SD, но нет какой-либо поддержки omap850 вообще. Мы все еще ждем добавления наших патчей, но я надеюсь, что мы скоро вложим их. Это даст нам много новых возможностей для нашего проекта, одной из которых является долгожданная поддержка звука и wifi - в том числе и управление питанием которое появится с новым ядром.

0.4Pre4 выпущен!
Что появилось:


Android может принимать звонки при первой загрузке
Поддержка AT&T APN
Новая поддержка плат HTC Opal, Pharos и Excalibur
Исправлена функциональность reset_ts так что она не зацикливается
Исправлен поворот экрана при открытии клавиатуры в Wizard и многое другое
Новые комбинации клавиш для Elf и Elfin
Исправлено монтирование SD карты в Android
Добавлены новый драйвер батареи
Множество различных исправлений


Разыскиваются
Нужны разработчики для работы над звуком.

Как запустить Wing Linux?
- Сделайте бекап ваших данных с SD карты и телефона прежде чем что-либо делать!
У нас было несколько случаев потери данных, так что лучше это сделать!
1) Зайдите на сайт Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki)
2) Скачайте Wing Linux 0.4Pre4 (отсюда (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre4/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre4-rootfs.cab/download)) (Ссылка исправлена)
3) Скачайте HTC Elf/Elfin Cab-файл (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre4/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre4-elf.cab/download)
4) Установите Wing Linux 0.4Pre4 cab и Elf cab на карту памяти телефона (И убедитесь что на карте свободно не менее 512 мб)

Как запустить Google Android?
1) После инсталляции cab-ов как написано выше, зайдите в Программы, и запустите Wing Linux
2) Нажмите run!
3) После просмотра 20000++ строк кода появится экран установки (синенький такой)
4) Подождите немного, так как у нашего телефона нет аппаратной клавиатуры. Теперь подождите пока оно установится.
5) После этого запустится утилита калибровки экрана, точно нажимайте на нужные точки (Калибровка происходит только ОДИН раз, и если вы тыкните не туда, то удачи, потребуется масса усилий чтоб все заработало правильно!)
6) Android начнет загружаться!


Основные команды!
Зеленая кнопка - Назад
Красная кнопка - Отбой
Центр (джойстик) - Меню
Вверх (джойстик) - Вверх
Вниз (джойстик) - Вниз
Лево (джойстик) - Лево
Право (джойстик) - Право
Камера - Назад
Громкость вверх - увеличить громкость
Громкость вниз - уменьшить громкость

Как скопировать файлы / инсталлировать приложения в Android используя Windows
1) Установите эти драйвера (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=84122&d=1209554226) сетевого устройства (это позволит телефону связаться с ПК)
- Драйвера работают в Windows XP и Vista
- Установки для сетевой карты
ip: 10.100.0.2
mask: 255.255.0.0
2) Скачайте WinSCP (http://winscp.net/)
3) Установите его!
4) Вбейте эти настройки в WinSCP:
- Сервер: 10.100.0.1
- Логин: root
- Пароль: wing
5) Чтобы установить приложения Google Android
- Сначала скачайте приложение!
6) Скопируйте .apks-файл в /system/app/directory через WinSCP
- (ex: scp xxx.apk root@10.100.0.1:/system/data/)
7) Готово! Оно покажется в списке приложений!

Что еще не работает?
- Камера
- Звук
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- Режим ожидания
- Выключение телефона.

Вы МОЖЕТЕ использовать телефон для..
- Серфинг GPRS (Нужны дополнительные настройки)
- СМС
- Календарь
- Контакты

ЧАВО

В: На каких устройствах это работает?
О: На GSM HTC Touch / Работает на Elf и Elfin (Вау!)
Если у Вас CDMA версия HTC Touch, посмотрите рекомендации в форуме Vogue.

В: Мой телефон Elf или Elfin?
О: Откройте Пуск > Параметры > Система > Информация о устройстве > закладка Оборудование, если 'емкость ОЗУ' 64MБ это Elf, если 128MБ ОЗУ и 256MБ Flash тогда это Elfin. (Это различие не столь важно, Wing Linux работает на обоих, этот вопрос добавлен только для справки)

В: Сколько места на карте это займет?
О: Около 300мб (примерно), так как образ уже 250мб.

В: Мой телефон не подключается к сети
О: Пожалуйста отключите пароль сим-карты используя Windows Mobile прежде чем зперезагружаться в Android.

В: Как заставить работать GPRS на Вашем устройстве
О: Почитайте здесь (http://www.androidonhtc.com/carrier_network_settings). (это ссылка)

В: Как заново провести калибровку?
О: Откройте карту памяти, зайдите в папку 'linux', затем откройте default.txt. Найдите строку "set CMDLINE", добавьте "reset_ts" к ней.
Не забудтье потом удалить это если калибровка Вас устраивает.
(Если Microsoft Word попросит сохранить файл в своем формате нажмите нет)

В: Если я использую Herald Cab и запускаю 0.4pre3, как мне настроить нормальную работу кнопок?
О: Посмотрите здесь (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4539762&postcount=111)

В: У меня еще вопросик ...
О: Оставьте его здесь и кто-нибудь ответит. Не надо писать мне в ПМ. Спасибо

В: Я хотел бы поговорить о Wing Linux в нете, в реальном времени.

Hi i was just wondering if there is another way to install apps to the android runtime other than through usb? Am running on a Wizard, have downloaded the etho tool from the first post but can't get it to run on the pc. Is there a way of opening up the rootfs.img. Have downloaded win image which will open the file. but can't get it to inject files into System/apps. Can extract the whole package with winimage but don't know prefernces for creating a new image with the extra apps included. Thanks in advance, Jimsie. Oh by the way runs a treat, GPRS and everything.

It works! :)
I have a french HTC Touch (P3450), it booted normaly and work fine, thank everybody who worked on this project.
To contribute I could translate system in French, how can I do that?

Post your translation of french here and I will link it up to the first post.
After that PM me and I will keep you in the loop if there is any updates on the guides.

Thanks A lot for your kind contribution :D

Bienvenue dans le salon de discussion autours du développement de Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=222615&d=1251737343
- Fonctionnement de la version 0.4pre3 (mis à jour prochainement)
En clair, ce projet concerne le portage du système Google's Android (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)) (basé sur Linux) sur nos téléphones.
Ce projet est encore au stade de BETA, certaines fonctionnalités ne sont pas encore implémentées.
Nous sommes sûrs que cela va s'améliorer.

Ce sujet a pour origine le sujet Linwizard, Now What? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4439572#post4439572). Comme nous avions un but différent, une nouvelle page s'est avérée necessaire.

--

Comment ça marche?
Windows Mobile tourne sur votre téléphone, donc quand Android est lancé, il va 'tuer' Windows dans la mémoire vive et l'utiliser entièrement pour lui.
Comme le flash n'est pas touché et que tout se fait dynamiquement dans la mémoire vive, si vous faites un reset logiciel, c'est Windows qui démarrera et tout redeviendra normal.

Dernières nouvelles
Les nouvelles mises à jour de ce projet.

Mises à jours :
Nous avons travaillé dur avec le projet Linwizard pour modifier le kernel. Nous avons réussi à obtenir un kernel qui démarre, reconnait la carte SD, alors qu'il n'y avait pas de support pour l'omap850. Nous sommes toujours en attente d'une officialisation de nos patchs, mais j'ai espoir que nous l'auront bientôt. Ce travail va nous apporter un tas de nouvelles choses pour notre projet, parmi lesquelles le support très attendu du son et du wifi, -- inutile de préciser que le travail pour y arriver a été immense depuis la première version de notre kernel.

Sortie de la 0.4Pre4!
Nouvelles fonctionnalitées :

Patch pour qu'Android puisse recevoir des appels dès le premier démarrage
Support de AT&T APN
Nouveaux supports matériels pour les HTC Opal, Pharos, et Excalibur
Bug de la fonction reset_ts (boucle perpetuelle) corrigé
Rotation de l'affichage lors de la sortie du clavier corrigée pour le Wizard et plein d'autres
Nouvelle distribution des boutons pour les Elf et Elfin
Bug au montage de la carte SD dans Android corrigé
Un nouveau pilote de batterie virtuel a été ajouté : le correctif utilisant /sys_dev n'est plus nécessaire pour démarrer Android
Pleins de bugs divers corrigés


Nous avons besoin de :
Développeurs pour la partie son

Comment bien démarrer avec Wing Linux?
- Faites des sauvegardes de votre carte SD et de votre téléphone avant de commencer quoi que ce soit!
Des pertes de données sont déjà arrivées, mieux vaut prévenir que guérir!
1) Allez sur le site de Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki)
2) Téléchargez Wing Linux 0.4Pre4 (ici (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre4/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre4-rootfs.cab/download)) (Lien corrigé)
3) Téléchargez également le fichier spécial pour notre HTC Elf/Elfin ici (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux%20Development/0.4pre4/cabs/wing-linux-0.4pre4-elf.cab/downloaddownload).
4) Vérifiez que vous disposez d'au moins 512Mo de libre sur votre carte mémoire, puis installez ces deux fichiers sur votre carte SD (Important! cela ne marchera pas si vous l'installez dans le téléphone!).

Comment faire démarrer Android?
1) Après l'installation, allez dans Programmes et lancez Wing Linux
2) Appuyez sur Run!
3) Après avoir vu défiler plus de 20000 lignes de codes, vous atteindrez un écran d'installation bleu
4) Comme l'écran tactile n'est pas encore reconnu à ce stade de l'installation, ii votre téléphone n'a pas de clavier, prenez votre mal en patience : comme l'indique le premier écran, il suffit d'attendre quelques minutes pour que les choix par défaut soit sélectionnées.
5) Quelques barres de progression remplies et redémarrages plus tard, l'outil de calibration tactile apparait. Faites bien attention à cliquer que les croix, car cet outil n'apparait qu'au premier démarrage, donc bonne chance si vous vous trompez. Vous aurez certainement à recommencer tout depuis le début.
6) Android va commencer à se charger, tenez nous prêt pour le grand saut! (ce premier chargement peut être assez long, de mémoire je crois que j'ai du attendre 5 ou 10 minutes sur l'écran "Android" avant de voir le bureau apparaitre)


Les commandes!
Bouton vert (appeler) - Retour
Bouton rouge (raccrocher) - Fin d'appel
Bouton central (joystick) - Menu
Haut (joystick) - Haut
Bas (joystick) - Bas
Gauche (joystick) - Gauche
Droite (joystick) - Droite
Camera - Retour
Volume haut - Volume haut
Volume bas - Volume bas

Comment copier des fichiers/installer des applications sur Android à partir d'un PC sous Windows
1) Installez les pilotes Ethernet Gadget (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=84122&d=1209554226) (pour connecter le téléphone au PC à travers le cable USB)
- Ca marche avec Xp et Vista (il va y avoir des avertissements ici et là)
- Paramètres de la carte réseau :
ip: 10.100.0.2
masque: 255.255.0.0
(pour mettre ces paramètres, ouvrez les connexions réseau, faites un clic droit > propriétés sur la dernière installée (le nom est explicite), double-cliquez sur la ligne concertant les paramètres TCP-IP, puis dans la fenêtre qui s'ouvre sélectionnez l'option pour fixer vous-même les paramètres de connexion. seules les 2 premières lignes sont renseignées.)
2) Téléchargez et installez WinSCP (http://winscp.net/)
3) Paramétrez le de cette manière :
- Serveur: 10.100.0.1
- Nom d'utilisateur: root
- Mot de passe: wing
4) Pour installer des applications Android
- Téléchargez les d'abord!
5) Mettez les fichiers .apks dans /system/app/directory à partir de WinSCP
- (ex: scp xxx.apk root@10.100.0.1:/system/data/)
6) C'est fait! Elle apparaitra dans la liste d'applications.

Qu'est-ce qui ne marche pas encore?
- L'appareil photo
- Le son
- Le WiFi
- Le Bluetooth
- La mise en veille
- L'extinction du téléphone (il faudra faire un reset)

Vous pouvez utiliser ce téléphone pour ...
- surfer sur Internet avec le GPRS (il y a quelques réglages à faire)
- envoyer/recevoir des SMS
- utiliser le calendrier
- gérer les contacts

FAQ

Q: Quels sont les téléphones supportés?
A: Les GSM HTC Touch / Ca marche pour le Elf comme le Elfin (Yay!)
Si vous avez une version CDMA du HTC Touch, allez voir sur les forums du Vogue.

Q: Ai-je un Elf ou un Elfin?
A: Allez dans Démarrer > Paramètres > Système > Informations de l'appareil > onglet Matériel, si la 'Taille de mémoire' indique 64MB c'est un Elf, si il est marqué 128MB pour la mémoire et 256MB pour la Flash c'est un Elfin. (ça n'a en fait pas d'importance, Wing Linux tourne aussi bien sur les deux, c'est juste à titre de référence)

Q: Quelle taille ça fait?
A: Il faut environ 300Mo, comme l'image fait déjà 250 Mo.

Q: Mon téléphone n'arrive pas à se connecter au réseau
A: Désactivez le mot de passe de la carte SIM dans Windows Mobile avant de revenir sur Android.

Q: Comment faire marcher la connection de données (GPRS)?
A: Référez vous à ce lien (http://www.androidonhtc.com/carrier_network_settings).

Q: Comment re-calibrer l'écran?
A: Allez dans la carte mémoire, dans le dossier nommé 'linux', et ouvrer le fichier default.txt. Cherchez la ligne "set CMDLINE", et ajoutez-y le paramètre "reset_ts". Souvenez vous de le supprimer une fois que vous avez recalibré l'écran.
(Si Microsoft Word vous demande si vous voulez enregistrer dans son format, répondez toujours non.)

Q: J'ai un Herald et j'utilise la version 0.4pre3, comment puis-je avoir les touches correctes?
A: Jetez un oeil ici (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4539762&postcount=111)

Q: J'ai encore des questions ...
A: Laissez un message ici et peut-être que quelqu'un pourra répondre. Ne m'envoyez pas de message perso, ni à jeremy89632, merci :D

When I go to APN settings there is nothing to select, is empty. How do you configure GPRS?

[hovie]

Is it still in development?
Could someone estimate a release date? so that we know how long we have to wait :P

Thanks for your hard work so far!

[klop22]

Version 0.4 is out!

http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki

[saurabh88]

hey man where is the second cab....plz it say not found plz check it

[suvratrao]

hey man where is the second cab....plz it say not found plz check it

You don't need it anymore. The wing-linux guys incorporated it into their new 0.4 zip file.

[paulocar]

no release notes :confused: or comments in the forum, someone knows what changes from 0.4pre4 to 0.4?

[ikbenivo]

amazing. Works great already! Only had some errors about sound on startup. Too bad about the simlock thing and the WiFi not working. If that's fixed I'll keep my touch instead of buying a real android phone.
Keep on the good work!

[fokx]

When I go to APN settingsd there is nothing to select, is empty. How do you configure GPRS?
Hi,I have the same problem.How can we fix it? Thanks by advance.

[paulocar]

read the thread someone already ask for this.

[ikbenivo]

I can't get any apps installed. I've tried the steps as written on the first page, but can't connect. Is there another way to connect and/or add apps?

Edit: solution found: simply add your apps to the sdcard (through windows mobile) and select in android (explorer)

[ivanmatz]

Jeremy please update the links

[fokx]

read the thread someone already ask for this.

I read everything, but I found nothing..Can you help me?

[paulocar]

to configure APN, when you get to the blank APN screen, click on the action button(the big button on the center of the phone in the bottom part) that will open two options on the botton of the screen, the left one says add APN

[fokx]

Great, thanks! I found it! But now, if someone know what paramaters I have to insert for configuring APN,cause I used those from the link , and everything isn t corresponding ( i use orange from france).Thanks for help!

[paulocar]

did you google it?

[ceone]

to configure APN, when you get to the blank APN screen, click on the action button(the big button on the center of the phone in the bottom part) that will open two options on the botton of the screen, the left one says add APN


I press the center button->add apn
I fill all the necessary information then i re-press the center button and select "save" option.
The system return to apn list but the the apn's list is already empty, no apn was added.
I don't understand the reason...

Figuring on how to fiddle on my hero, sorry for the empty-ness.

[hovie]

Did you let us down jeremy?

[jeremy89632]

Dont worry dude!
Since I have one android on hand now, I am more familiarize with it and therefore its easier to settle GPRS and issues.

[sushantduggal]

Thanks for such a creative thread.
I have installed Android successfully. Please tell me how to answer the call. I am able to see the incoming call but not able to pick it up.

[hovie]

Glad to hear from you ;-)
Thanks for all your work, keep on making us happy :D cheers!

[Tabe_]

First I got some problems with screen calibration, but in the third install i realized that sometimes it prompted up a screen calibration dialogue, so i can calibrate and use it in the rigth way. Thanks you all!!!

Working with 4.0.2

By the way there is no sound support, wifi support, bluetooth support... stil

:)

This is pretty cool, Jeremy. By the way, how is your Android device compared to Windows Mobile? I am thinking of getting the LG GW620 from my carrier but it only has firmware 1.5...

[shysteria]

I have a lenovo phone ,ET600E,
it have omap850 cpu.
when i run wing linux,it black screen.
i don't know what it happen,
some advice ？
thanks a lot.:D
and, i have ET600E schematic(.PDF) ,but i don't know how to post it.

That's because it's not an Elf/Elfin, the drivers are different..

[jeremy89632]

Android is 200x better than Windows Mobile, it is very customizable. But do remember one thing, make sure that there is a Developer forum for whatever phone you take. For example, my HERO has a XDA Forum.

Lots of market stuff, lots of apps are free and there are more and more apps being developed. which is indexed.

[jeremy89632]

Front Page updated, Video added, updated FAQ, Added new Wing Linux version. Changed guide version.

[Maxwell Lost]

Very good work, you have my wonderment! i hope you will continue work on this...

[htcfreak]

@ jeremey whats new in this..???

Yeah, APN works now, new android version if you noticed LOL. Better improvements in terms of speed and usability and now you can go to settings menu -> Wireless controls to add APN's and surf internet using GPRS / EDGE

[Maxwell Lost]

please, can you tell us, when will be this port useful, i mean when will be work camera, sound or wi-fi?thanks

[Stingray88]

I'd really like to give this a go, but I keep getting errors on first run. No errors on install onto storage card, but when I go to run wing, I get a EXCEPTION while reading from address XXXXXXXX error. Close that error and it pops back up with a different address number. ????? Any ideas?

thanks...

Hey Jeremy, Wondering if you can help me out.

I have read through the entire thread here... I am having the same issues as the quote above. No one answered this question so far.

I have downloaded the latest 4.2 rootfs.cab and installed it. I then installed the elf.cab. These were both installed onto a 4gb SD card with nothing else on it so there is definitely no space issues. When I go to start >> programs and click on wing linux to start running I get the error "An EXCEPTION while reading from address XXXXXXXX error. The X being a random string of characters and numbers. When I click the 'OK' another one pops up again and again. The only way to get out of this is to soft reset.

I have tried just about everything and read this entire thread... what am I doing wrong?

Have you tried working on another SD Card.
I suspect an address violation.

[Maxwell Lost]

and answer for my question please?:-)

Hi All,

Thanks for the nice work...

I have an issue, after adding a new APN settings, its not getting saved and I cannot use GPRS. PLease help me.

Thanks & Regards,

[paulocar]

and answer for my question please?:-)

did you read the post? this thread is information about an external project. just information, go the project site and ask question about status in there.

[mamansoman]

Hi All,

I was explorin the file systemto find why the APN information is not adding..I came to know from this web site http://androidzaurus.seesaa.net/article/102509026.html that there is no telephony.db in the rootfs.tar.gz.

The folder structure in the rootfs.tar.gz has to be in this way

data/data/com.android.providers.telephony.databses/telephony.db

I think the Wing linux has to be updated with this database and have to release a as updated version.

I am sorry if I am wrong in this. In APns config file the APNS entry is there for all countries.

Please jeremy89632 and other known guys please update this. or guide me how to build the wing linux and where to get the source I shall update this and post the result after testing.

Cheers,
Venkat

Welcome to the Discussion and Development Lounge for Wing Linux (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=222615&d=1251737343
Click here (http://qik.com/video/2775388) to view the booting of android on HTC Touch Elfin during the HTC Hero Launch (http://jeremygohblog.com/2009/09/06/htc-hero-launch/) event in Singapore with the CodeAndroid.org (http://CodeAndroid.org/) team.
- Running of 0.4pre3 (Updating that soon)
In Short, this project is about porting Google's Android (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)) OS (Which is running under Linux) into our devices.
This project is still in BETA, and there are many features not available yet.
We believe that we will move from strength to strength.

This thread is originated from the Linwizard, Now What? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4439572#post4439572) thread. As we found a new goal, we decided a new page is necessary.

--

How this works?
Windows Mobile runs on your concurrent phone, so when Android is being boot up on the device, it will actually 'kick off' the RAM working concurrently on Windows Mobile and use the entire RAM for linux itself.
After soft-reseting, everything will go back to normal.
--
News Centre
News updates for this project.

Updates:
We've also been working hard with the Linwizard project bringing our kernel changes to the main-line kernel. So far, we've got a kernel booting with SD card support, up from not having any omap850 support at all. We're still waiting on our patches to be approved, but I'm hopeful we'll get them in soon. This work will give us lots of new things for our project, one of which is long-awaited sound support and wifi -- not to mention all the work on power management that's been done since our kernel was released.

0.4.2 Released!
Features include:
- Runs on Android V1.5r4 (Cupcake)
- Additionally, 0.4.2 includes the ability to reboot your phone from Android -- simply hold down End and select Power Off. Your phone will reboot.

Wanted
Developers for Sound needed for device.

How to get started with Wing Linux?
- Backup your SD Card and Phone before doing anything!
We have a few cases with wiped out data, better do it, guys!
1) Go to the Wing Linux's Website (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki)
2) Get Wing Linux's 0.4.2 (here (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux/0.4.2/cabs/wing-linux-0.4.2-rootfs.cab/download))
3) Get our very own HTC Elf/Elfin Cab (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wing-linux/files/Wing%20Linux/0.4.2/cabs/wing-linux-0.4.2-elf.cab/download) (Dont Worry, what you press on the phone will be what you get!)
4) Install both Wing Linux 0.4.2 cab and the Elf cab in your storage card (So make sure you have at least 512mb free storage space in your memory card)

How to get Google Android started?
1) After installing the cab as mentioned above, go to programs, and start Wing Linux
2) Press run!
3) After seeing 20000++ lines of code, you will reach an install screen (which is blue in colour)
4) You will take sometime there as our phones do not have a physical keyboard. So wait for it to install.
5) After that, the calibration utility will start, make sure you tap the right corners of the screen (The calibration process is only ONCE, so once you click the wrong corners, good luck, we need more steps to get it back working!)
6) Android will start loading and you are ready to get blasted!

How to copy files / install apps into Android using Windows
1) Install this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=84122&d=1209554226) 'Ethernet Gadget' Drivers (In order to let the phone talk to the PC)

QNA

Q: Which Device Can Run This?
A: A GSM HTC Touch / It works for both Elf and Elfin (Yay!)
If you use a CDMA version of HTC Touch, please go to your Vogue forum.

Q: Is my phone Elf or Elfin?
A: Go to Start > Settings > System > Device Information > Hardware tab, if the 'RAM size' shows 64MB it's an Elf, if it shows 128MB for RAM and 256MB for Flash then it's the Elfin. (This doesn't matter as Wing Linux is able to run on both, just added this question for reference only)

Q: How big is this thing?
A: It is about 300mb (Estimated), as the image is already 250mb.

Q: My phone cant connect to the network
A: Please switch off the Sim Password on your phone using Windows Mobile first before coming into Android.

Q: How to get Data (GPRS) working on your device
A: Go to your settings menu in Android and change your APN options, you can get that from your carrier.

Q: How to re-calibrate the screen?
A: Go to storage card, than go this folder called 'linux', than open default.txt. Look for the line that says "set CMDLINE", add "reset_ts" to it.
Remember to remove that once you're satisfied with the calibration.
(If Microsoft Word asks you to save it in their format, always say no)

Q: If I am using the Herald Cab and running on the outdated 0.4pre3, how can I get the correct key mappings?
A: See here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4539762&postcount=111)

Q: I have some questions about Android
A: Post it here and I should be able to respond as I am using an Android phone at the moment.

Q: I have more questions ...
A: Post it here and someone kind will be able to respond. Do not PM me. Thanks :D

Q: I wish the hang out and chat about Wing Linux on the net in real time.
A: Join us on the IRC: #wing-linux on freenode.org

I am sorry guys

Thank you all

1. This guy claims to have a working sound driver on the htc omap 850 can we have included and tried out ?
http://open-nandra.com/2009/10/repository-for-omap850-audio-driver-update/
The driver in question is in http://github.com/nandra/omap_850_kernel/tree/master/drivers/misc/


2. I am unable to save a apn and connect to gprs. I had tried adding Apn configuration in the apns-conf.xml in the system/etc directory but noticed that on the line 336, column 21 due to the & character the telephony.db does not get created properly.
The following error can be observed in logcat output
E/TelephonyProvider( 3101): org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: Error parsing document. (position:line -1, column -1) caused by: org.apache.harmony.xml.ExpatParser$ParseException: At line 336, column 22: not well-formed (invalid token)
E
When this"AT&T US" APN is removed the telephone.db was created with about 32/33 entries other wise it has only 13 entries.

This did not solve my problem still debugging it.


Thanks,
Ashwin

Hi,

Please check post http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/wing-linux/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=45#p486 and let me know if the driver posted there works? and what would be required to use this driver to get sound on android ?

Thanks,
Ashwin

Sorry, actually i can't keep the italian translation updated, but i've wrote an article where i explain everything, regarding the lastest version (right now)...

[srgudhka]

any further development on this. is it possible to port android eclair rom in elf/elfin.

[dumaromar]

Jeremy, I do want to thank you and your team for this fine effort you are doing on Android for htc elf devices. I installed it on my Venezuelan Digitel HTC touch elf 100 and it did what you said. I will be waiting for the upgrades to fix the wifi, sound and gprs limitations I still have. There was no way that I could set up the gprs web values for my Digitel Carrier in Venezuela to be able to browse the internet but the dialer worked fine and I was able to make my calls.
I am a Ubuntu user and this mobile OS really fits me well. Thanks again.

Dumar

[lklandaverde]

I have a T-Mobile branded Elfin, and haven't managed to get any version of wing linux running on it.

After pressing "Run", I get a screen with around 6 lines of code, like in the video. Then they disappear, and I get a screen with one line of dots on, like this:
......................................

The dots then disappear, and I get "preparing to enable interupts" on the screen. After a while the screen turns off, and nothing happens after that. I then have to reset the phone to get back to Windows Mobile.

I have seen this exact behaviour with various wm6.5 and wm6.5.x ROMs. Any solutions would be appreciated!



EDIT: A working device should get up to the "preparing to enable interupts" line, then more lines should appear on the screen. This leads me to believe my device can't enable interupts for some reason...

[kaka1]

Thanks a lot.works fine with Elf/in........:):):):)

Hello everyone, I bought an htc touch p3450 and i'm intersted in using this android OS. Dont know why I cant download the files, everytime i'm in the sourceforge web page i try to download the files with no luck, i click on the direct link with no luck either, nothing happened. If anyone could help me, maybe with a link from the site directly, would be appreciated. I had use the android OS in other phones and it looks intersting. Want to try this beta and i'm waiting on the complete version. Thanks on any help.
HTC TOUCH P3450(128MB ram and 256MB flash, I think its an elfin, correct me if am wrong)

[freaksey]

Ähhh..

I dont get it, does the current version has Wifi Support or not?

[heew00t]

Wow, I just tried this on my elfin today, and I'm thoroughly impressed! Keep up the good work guys :)

@freaksey: When I tried to enable WiFi, it spit up an error and wouldn't work.

[htcfreak]

If @ all Andriod works on ELF[in], then this is what would help us

any chances for eclair 2.1 for our device.
vogue forum has it. fully working.
check here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5486428&postcount=1


Read this post!!! Especially the instructions
Turns out it was media fire corrupting the tar somehow. Moved to sourceforge (Thanks Vilord)
This would not have been possible without all of Vilords help. You rock man! Thanks for James for testing for me, and for everyones patience with it not working for a while :(.. Props to the gps developers for their amazing work, and props to the guy who figured bluetooth out. (sorry I'll update your name later) I tend to work behind the scene and haven't publicly release a build in a long time, so that might be why I'm rusty.


So everyone's probably seen the extensive changes we did to the initrd. If not find them in this post here. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625014) We've removed the rootfs completely. And setup an amazing new install menu, this was all vilord and if anyone deserves a donation it's him. This means that no older builds with work with this until they've been updated. We're going to post a new thread with instructions to create a compatible system. These builds are both setup for 320x480 resolution, however it is very easy now to change stuff. So if on windows download 7zip, open the tar file with zip, than open the build.prop and change the LCD Density accordingly. Save the changes and when prompted add the changed file back in.
instructions
unrar the file and copy the androidinstall.tar so a folder on your sdcard called andboot.
If you have no data enter your apn settings
Download the files from the thread linked at the top, if you don't have the new nbh and basefiles it won't work.
Put this file in your andboot folder, reboot your phone and hold up.
Install the system and reboot.
When it asks you about provision wizard or settings wizard, choose settings wizard, it will ask you a second time to enter your gmail, just hold down the camera for two seconds to skip


Build 1.
Eclair 2.1 Vogue edition, Based on the XROM port from cyanogens eclair build. ported and tweaked by me :);
Features;
Working Audio
Working GPS
Partially working bluetooth (I've some kernel updates to finish I think)
Full sleep support
Customized Animated Wallpapers for our phones, I rewritten the app to use lower resolutions, less sprites and lowered other features. As well I've optimized the images to make them use ALOT less ram. I am still working on this app so watch this thread for updates for the livewallpapers. As example I've fixed, but not yet included the galaxy wallpaper, and made more progress on water.. But I've got to post this sometime :)
It's a little slow to start but runs great once it's up and running.

What doesn't work

Camera, that's next on the list of libs to work on.
Some of the animated wallpapers don't work and the grass one is way too big still.
While the audio in works, things like the voice search and voicekeyboard don't tend to get the right words. There's been some fun ones come up :)
Bluetooth syncs with my headset but I get no sound. Please let me know if it's the same for you. I believe there's more to do to the libs to get bluetooth working properly.

Additional Info
It's a little slow to start up because I'm making sure all the apps are optimized on every boot. Maps isn't included, so you can update it.

Build 2
This is just a port of an older WesG build from the dream forums. It's rock solid stable with no issues, again though you have to enter your own apn information. I haven't yet applied the BT fix yet, but as the system is so easy to work with now anyone can do it :)
