Froyo for Vogue/Kaiser/Polaris [2010-07-06]

sancho1234 · Jul 16, 2010

It does not work the getting location function with mobile networks. The GPS is okay, but the GSM cell determination is not working. My operator (T-Mobile HU) is support it.

Any idea?

On my devices are replaced with some function keys.

Examples:
- I pressed the "Fn+W", I see the "@", but the sign on the button the is "!".
- I pressed the "Fn+Q", I see the "!", but the sign on the button is the "@".

How can I set the fine keyboard layout to HTC Kaiser (TyTN II) over Froyo 2.2?

use any hex editor, edit kaisimg.nbh and change keyboard type at offset 13B6

board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1 to 0

Okay, thank you!

Edit: I tried it! Cool!

Froyo and Tethering

milanche said:
A general question regarding Froyo. Before Froyo was out there was a lot of talk about built in feature for Wifi Tethering - among JIT most anticipated feature I'd say. If I recall correctly this feature was also demonstrated by Google at Froyo initial presentation.

But it seems that out builds lack this feature?

Bump. Only thing holding me back from flashing my Tilt to NAND is this and networkless driving directions (wonder how google navigation will mature)

GSM triangulation for position

+1 for me. TMobile affiliate (iWireless), and it works just fine in WinMo...

I've managed to get wifi working I just kept reinstalling and it worked on about the 3rd install.

Anyone get HTC Sync to work? If so what version? I've tried latest version but no luck.

Camera force quit

Hi there,

Is it possible, somehow, to get the default camera working without the constant force quit?

I didn't see this as something which wasn't working, otherwise I would have stuck with Donut!

Any help appreciated!!

sancho1234 · Jul 19, 2010

Where do I found the Market Enabler for this build?

+1 on this also, it works fine on Myn's Warm Donut build, it should work better on Froyo, not worse!

Camera is also important, help please!

Finally, how do I remove the gallery app that's preinstalled and reinstall a normal one, I don't want fancy 3d stuff, just something that displays my photos as the gallery app in donut did.

Somebody help me with the Terminal in kaiser

When I use the up keypad to load previous command at the Terminal, it always show ^[[A... I have tried some version of BetterTerminal, but no luck.
I remember when I used Donut build, this function was ok.

To remove a preinstalled app from a build you will probably have to remove it from the androidinstall.tar itself, and then reinstall.

(hint: 7zip allows you to add and delete files within a tar file)

Bayton · Jul 19, 2010

I know there is a code to write into the terminal which will also remove the app, just don't know what it is...

zenity · Jul 19, 2010

You could open terminal,

type the following commands:

su

rwsystem

cd /system/app ( may be /data/app don't have a donut installer handy to check )

ls *.apk

rm xxxxxxxx.apk ( not certain which apk it is ).

rwsystem

exit

exit

This should remove the required apk file, you may have to do a fix permissions, and clear dalvik cache from install menu, just to be safe

Not a function of the terminal emulator as much as of the shell.
The default shell doesn't have line editing, but bash does.
type "bash" as the first command, or change the default shell.
I don't know my way around android yet, so can't tell you where or how to do that.

Yes, typing bash works! Thank you.

I will look for how to change default shell.

To gain an extra 11Mb of RAM on Kaiser or Polaris, get the kernels I've posted here...

About this part, after hexing that file for kaiser, I also found it sends parameter for kernel for battery size and that could cause wrong readings. This particular kernel sends 2700 by default for board-kaiser-battery.battery_capacity:

Code:

static int battery_capacity = KAISER_BATTERY_RATING;
module_param(battery_capacity, int, 0644);
MODULE_PARM_DESC(battery_capacity, "Estimated battery capacity in mAh");

and how it uses that parameter in code:

Code:

i2c_write(DS2746_CURRENT_ACCUM_MSB, 1L*battery_capacity*KAISER_RSNS*((5*b->batt_vol)/3-5000)/62500);

So i assume also hexediting that into your battery rating should make battery bar show right values. Atleast mine died when i saw first time "15% left, please connect charger" and next thing i saw was boot and dying there. Now corrected 1350 instead of 2700. I'll post results if it helped for my problem... Seems kallt_kaffe is using bigger battery

Learned today: module parameter. Thanks for ali1234 @ #htc-linux

Now /sys/module/board_kaiser_battery/parameters/battery_capacity shows 1350.

Sleep of Death

So ever since switching to Froyo I've been getting the Sleep of Death.

I'm installed on NAND, both system and data. I've tried all the latest kernels (both panel 2 & 3) and several 1.71.xx and 1.65.xx radios, yet it still happens. It happens at random times, sometimes I can go for hours without it happening and others it happens within minutes. Sometimes the screen goes white when I hit the power button, but most of the time the screen just stays off.

Anyone got any solutions?

No solutions yet, but you are not alone.
