Android noob here, after a long hiatus I came back and again installed frx07.1. Good so far.

One question, is there a way to use long press on wired headset to open voice command instead of music player?

Hrm. I don't have a headset, so I can't try this. Perhaps you can search for what native Android users would do to solve this? Sometimes it works without a hitch, sometimes our wacky port doesn't work like a native device. Give it a shot, let us know how it works.

I was binging and found this app "Headset Button Controller". Will try to install it once i get home.

Most of my work gets done via the headset (and mortscript) in WM6.5. I will post a list of my customizations in WM6.5 section.

Question Regarding Data

I am running this on my Sprint Touch Diamond (Diam500) and everything is working great with the exception of my data. It is working fin on the WM 6.1 side of things but not the Android. Is there something I am doing wrong? I have read people who talk about having to setup the APNs for it and I have tried. Or people who say it has something to do with WM 6.1. If these are the cases do you know where I can get the APN info or a working rom for WM 6.5?

Please see this thread.

If it works, and doesn't break everything else... I'll update the build.

Now my Raph is prepared for the future, thanks for this fine Android! All function works fine with the exception of some keys of the keyboard an some germans signs. I will try to change the keymapping. Try, because im not a software developer.

I have some problems with the system stability , it happens that the mobile shut down immedately. But i believe the problem is my new 2800 mAh Akku, his size and weight could make problems with the electrical connection , in Germany we say "Wackelkontakt".

BTW The problem with standby time, i mean, the most mobiles are older than 2 or 3 Years, so the battery is decreased in his capacity! Time for an new one! With my double capacity battery i have a standby over 36 hours under using permanent connection to facebook etc.
look at this ebay auction : 260484009780
this is the battery im using now

Wow, joined in 2007 and this is your first post!

As for keyboard layouts, see this:

USB Mass Storage

It all works nicely, but is there no installable version of the Google Play Market for it? The Apk's won't install. Also, the USB Mass Storage doesn't work? I plugged in the Htc Raphael 100, but the USB storage won't boot, just load and load, but never connect with the computer. Anyone have any idea how to fix that?

USB mass storage doesn't work, at least not in the traditional way - please read the FAQ. There's a GIGANTIC link in the first post.

I don't think Google Play will work on FroYo - someone correct me if I'm wrong. You might need GB for that, which there is a GB build for the RAPH...

Again, read the FAQ please.

Video Out

Does video out work on this? I have a slight need for a battery powered android device with video out, and since the raspberry pi isn't going to get android anytime this year (thanks broadcom) this seems like it would work ok for me.

I realize this thread is probably more dead than Abraham Lincoln, but if anyone knows for sure if it works or not, I would appreciate knowing.

Thanks

Hah.

No. Sorry.

It doesn't work on the RHOD, so the chances of it working on the RAPH are pretty much nil. That's not to say that it "couldn't" work, but that it "doesn't work currently".

brightness will not change

I'm having an odd problem with my raph800. the brightness will not change. More specifically when trying to change the brightness, it will adjust as i'm moving the slider, but then revert back to a dim setting the second I let go of it. It's similar with the power widget. when I hit the brightness button it will brighter for about half a second, then revert back to dim. Anyone else seeing this problem or know the cause? It's not a dealbreaker, but makes using the phone in daylight impossible.

I just inherited this phone from my brother, so i'm new to the thread. I tried searching "brightness" but did not find any relevant posts. I did find that "auto" setting bug, though.

Just out of curiosity, what is the backlight set at in winmo? I don't exactly recall what the recommended setting is but have you attempted to play with it prior to booting into Android?

Ah... I forget the ole RAPH still has these crippling screen issues.

I think you're on the right track here, and autobacklight should be OFF in WinMo. Try that...

geez, it never even occurred to me that winmo settings could have an effect. Being new to this device it took me a few minutes just to find the option for it. It was set to auto. So I unchecked and started up android. Problem solved.

The both of you are geniuses! Thanks for the help. :good:

Quite a bit 'bleeds over' from WinMo... Mostly low-level stuff. Radio related provisioning stuffs, some of the GPS stuff... I'm kinda surprised this one does, but it definitely does.

Glad you got it workin ;).

    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:
    • Re-use an old ts-calibration file if you have it and you know it's good.
    • Download the ts-calibration.zip file and extract it to where you put the rest of the files (root of SD or in a folder - make sure it all stays together!)
    • Manually calibrate - boot with no ts-calibration file and watch the boot process - you'll be asked to hit 5 points to calibrate the screen. If you have issues calibrating, try an older kernel (1225 works well) Once you have the calibration file hold on to it (make 15 copies if it's a good one :p), reboot & go back to the newest kernel!

    6. Run haret.exe.. Profit! :D

    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.

    stinebd's Changelog:


    stinebd said:
    Here’s a new release for you, folks. This is a major release with a ton of changes, new features, and fixes. Our friend hyc/highlandsun did most of the heavy lifting for this release. Highlights include a rewritten RIL with support for world phones and greatly improved CDMA support; fixes for the media codecs; fixes for MMS on Sprint; increased security with the Superuser app.

    A list of changes is included below. The FRX07 system image is available for download now, and will require the use of a new rootfs image, also available now. Additionally, we have a new bundle containing everything needed to enjoy a full FRX07 system.

    Note: Due to the incredibly long list of changes, this is a somewhat condensed, terse changelog describing only the overall scope of the changes.

    FRX07:
    • frameworks/base:
      • Major frameworks changes for CDMA/GSM dual-mode worldphone support. (hyc)
      • Fixes for data connection handling to improve startup time. (hyc)
      • Fixes for wifi handling to avoid issues on hanged drivers. (hyc)
      • Stagefreight (media codecs) fixes. (hyc/viruscrazy)
      • Fixes for Sprint’s wonky MMS markup structure. (hyc)
      • Fix MediaScanner not finding audio files (including ringtones) in system.ext2
    • hardware/libhardware_legacy:
      • Minor GPS driver fixes. (Alex[sp3dev])
      • Rename wifi interfaces to wlan0 on all devices (hyc)
    • hardware/xdandroid-ril: Major RIL refactoring for improved performance on all devices, and added CDMA/GSM dual-mode worldphone support. (hyc)
    • packages/apps/Gallery3D: Switched back to Gallery3D as the gallery app (closes bug #111)
    • packages/apps/Mms: Fixes for Sprint’s wonky MMS markup structure. (hyc)
    • packages/apps/Phone: Fixes for CDMA/GSM dual-mode worldphone support. (hyc)
    • packages/apps/Superuser: Added the Superuser package for authorizing su privileges. This, along with our signed builds, provides greatly increased security for the end user (mostly against malicious apps from the Market).
    • system/extras/su: Added as a dependency for the Superuser package
    • vendor/qcom/android-open: Include missing stagefright codec symbols. (hyc/viruscrazy)

    To coincide with the FRX07 system image, the following rootfs changes have been made:
    • init.froyo.rc modifications...
      • Adjust wpa_supplicant service for the new abstraction provided by libhardware_legacy, as well as interface rename
      • Abstract the hciattach service to provide bluetooth support on both chipsets
    • Rename wifi interface to wlan0 on all devices
    • apns-conf.xml updated
    • keymaps completely reorganized, and RHOD end-call key has been remapped to be the Home key in Android.
    • default.prop: set ro.secure=1 to lock down the adb shell - su can be used with the Superuser app to authorize root access in adb if needed.

    Layman's Changelog​

    (As in, the changelog I wrote :p)​

    FRX07.1 Changelog:

    • RHOD - all buttons on the front no longer wake the device. Only the power button wakes the device now.
    • Updated to the newest RIL
    • hyc's modified libs for video now baked in - *most* HQ YouTube videos (and other HQ videos) should finally work!
    • RHOD & TOPA - Userland (Android) now controls the LED by default now. If you need to debug sleep, you will have to change the behavior manually.
    • Facebook sync should now work, out-of-box.

    FRX07 Changelog:
    • Updated RIL (thanks hyc!) - this covers many different bugs that were in the old RIL - I'm only going to cover the major ones...
      • CDMA now works correctly (for the most part). force_cdma (and north_am_dialing) is now deprecated (not needed/ignored!)
      • You can boot with a SIM in on a CDMA device and choose your GSM or CDMA on the fly under Settings.
      • Location based on towers now works on CDMA.
      • 1xRTT now displays correctly, but I never seem to get EVDO Rev.a... I always get 0. This is represented by a 3g icon, as this is what the Android framework provides.
      • Full MMS support! Please see this page for configuration instructions. Will need help fleshing out the list of carriers folks!
      • Spotty service, switching towers, etc should no longer cause the dreaded SoD (Sleep of Death) condition!
    • (Basic audio) 3.5mm support for RHOD400/500
    • Droidwall works out of the box now
    • Keyboard backlight now fades in/out
    • Gallery3D back in! Picasa Web Sync comes with it ;)
    • A couple new apps added to AndroidApps folder:
      • rpierce99's app GetLogs
      • Titanium Backup
    4
    Caveats:

    • BT - works! But audio doesn't route. See this thread if you're feeling adventurous and want to play with/don't mind using some unstable/incomplete code...

    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.
