SD HC Storage card support - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hi to all !When will be planned the support to use the new media SD HC 8Gb ??I think that must be only write a driver software and no need to change nothing in hardware parts.So, hopefully wish to know if just exists an updated software driver in order to read and write these media.Ask to some gurus how to walkaroud Thanks very much

probably never. different HW not only drivers.here is at least one thread about it
WHY DONT YOU USE SEARCH BUTTON !!!

SD HC Drivers...
How about This..?, and Where is the drivers...?
http://www.bsquare.com/about/story.asp?PressID=451

ajong: At first imagine, try to make from cd-rom a working DVD-ROM (or from petrol engine make diesel one) - its simply not possible. Its different HW. Drivers U mentioned are for WM and CE but only and only for devices that have SDHC hardware

i searched only within Uni-subforums. try use that button next time(i put into search window "sdhc"

Thanks for reply !
I'm going to read these !
Meanwhile ....
I'm agree in the techology differences between Cd and DVD, here there're differences both software and hardware ! Think just to the laser that should read a different substrates so need a different lenght and frequency. But IMHO, this is not the case between SD standard and SDHC.
At a first sight, these looks analogue and pin to pin compilant, so, is only the firmware's reader/writer of the drive that "understand " the different and more capacity media and treat it it the right mode....
Beside this, I think, WM5/6 SD drive too must be "re-touched" in order to recognize this new format.
This, always IMHO, isn't a hard task and must be seen if the brands really are interested to sell more pieces of new SD HC media pushing the support to previous age devices.
Anyway, will hope some developer will write a kind of "Hack" to implement this feature on devices with 2nd generation SD card drivers

TV/AV out for Universal

Hi, All
Can anyone offer any help as to how to setup tv/av out, which cables and software are required??
I have just been watching someone plug their Nokia N95 into a tv set and I have to say I am very impressed, the picture's and video's look great, so easy to setup plug and play.
Thanks

Not really.
You can use Webcamera Plus to do this. It allows the PPC to stream video to the PC from the PPC's camera or screen.
You need:
WebCamera Plus Application by AtekSoft (Just google it)
ActiveSync connection
PC with TV out
Well yeah.. it's not as easy as with the Nokia N series since they had it already built-in the hardware.

Hi to everybody, I went to see this device (quoted) yesterday, it is a very nice thing indeed, it could open lots of possibilities to our devices, I think that it could be a very desirable thing for any "bussiness man" who owns one of these devices.
I already asked to the maker about price, availability, distributors and even minimum orders with them, I've just had an answer, they are asking about the requested quantity, so, if there's someone really interested, come ahead, we might get a beatiful ad on at a good price.
Hi! kecido, I'm excited with this device but I went thorough their webside, it works only from our main memory. Normally all our files we kept in memory card like ppt, video. So is there any other way to solve this since our maim memory so little. If I got solution for this matter I will buy this device. TQ

i dont think there can be a solution to this.... the hardware you're attaching is through an sd slot meaning you have to remove your sdcard...
why dont you use your ext rom / flash disk instead? just a thought though..

Help please - 8 Gb sd micro, XDA orbit

I was thinking of buying a 8Gb sd microcard for my Orbit
http://www.memorybits.co.uk/shop/mi...ard--plus-hc-card-reader!-sdsdqr8192e11m/5531
Can any experts recommend whether this'll work on the phone or not? I've noted from another thread that if I download http://members.cable24.at/immogroup/...HC-Artemis.cab this and run this on my orbit, then it should work.
Is this right?
Thanks very much in advance.
Yes, that works, downloaded the same file and I use a 8GB card too. Copy it on your phone through active sync and install. Soft reset and then it works. If you ever update the ROM of your phone you have to take out the card or it will get stuck at a white screen (does not damage anything).
Next time you better use the search function, read a little bit and use a litte less imprtant title.
Many thanks for your help, bought the card and it's working fine.
I did try searching but wanted to make sure this would work before splashing out the £30 or so!
are you using WM5 or 6? i havent been able to get the SDHC patch to work on my Artemis with WM5....
As far as I know the patch is for WM6 only and does not work on WM5 devices. Is there a reason you don't upgrade to WM6?
I'm in a similar position to mugglesquop: searching for that SDHC patch for WM5 XDA Orbit. Reason for not upgrading to WM6 is that I've invested so much time into my WM5 phone, that I've got everything tailormade to have it the way I want it. I don't want to be starting all over again with WM6 or with a cooked ROM: a WM5 patch will do just fine!
I love the way my phone is: the only thing missing is SDHC compability. Like mugglesquop, I've searched everywhere, but with no joy. Please help!
if you use a 4 GB SDHC cart you need the SDHC-Artemis.cab .
Or you flash your Orbit with vanilla with sdhc
Would prefer not to flash my phone.
Which SDHC-Artemis.cab are you referring to burgi110?
(The one I tried made the WiFi icon disappear and Resco Explorer didn't recognise my 4GB SDHC Card)
Sorry, pointless post deleted.

Android - Wing Linux 0.4pre4 is out

Hi,
For those interested in the effort to port Android to the Excalibur, wing-linux android 0.4pre4 has been released with support for the Excalibur. Installation should be pretty easy (must install to the micro SD card).
For details and download: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki
This project is looking for more developers, so you're welcome to join.
Please Note: to reset your device after using android you'll have to take out the battery. As mentioned, the software does not install to the phone's ROM, so it's nice and safe no flashing!
Biggest issue is that sound doesn't work yet. GSM works if your SIM card has no pin. For information on setting up GPRS, please see the wing-linux forum.
Please test all you can, and report back either here, or even better at the wing-linux forum.
Cheers,
Update:
To fix the problem that the console is rotated the wrong way, after installing, go to the linux folder on the SD card and edit the "default.txt". In the CMDLINE variable, remove "fbcon=rotate:3".
For those of you that want a normal linux console, i.e. so Android doesnt start automatically, change the "4" on the end of this line to a "3" (this is the runlevel)
help
Can you hel me? I want to know if i can to install this so on my excalibur telcel (mexico) and how can i install it?
thanks

Hey great news......
Good going ..........
Hats off to all the geniuses on this project,
and a special thanks to UCCELLINO to get it on our beloved DASH
Hey Just one question ,
Is it the same cab for all the models ?
Tested
Tested!
And...
Success!
It works...
Since it is nowhere near finished ill mention only the cool things...
D-pad works and all of the other buttons too... (qwerty including)
Amazingly good integration for non touch screen phone... (I could almost imagine using it)
I would played bit more with it but to my biggest disappointment
THE SCREEN IS INTERLACED AND FLASHING(flickering) ALL THE TIME
Tested on MDA Mail
I almost forget: Thanks to all the involved geniuses...
I still can't believe it works, simply amazing
woohoo!!!!!!!
cant get it to start it fails and takes me to command prompt
Anyone has screenshot of this new Wing Linux?
Hi,
Thank you for doing this testing... the interlaced screen issue does not happen on my device... maybe there really are different models. I will check this out - it is probably a problem with screen timings. If you want to help, check out the Excalibur forum on the wing-linux forum and try another device profile.... Once I know what other device worked better for you, I can try and support it better within the Excalibur profile.
For other people: there is one main cab to install and then another smaller one to set it up for the Excalibur.
Once again, thank you to all for the help in testing! Next step is working audio and then we can really be on our way

What process did you go through exactly... this may be a bug can you give me any more info?
Just some points:
it must install to the micro SD, which needs atleast 250+ MB free available
you must install two cabs, the main one and then a little one for the Excalibur
in theory, if you do get to a command prompt, you can log in and use linux to start android.
Login is as follows:

Sorry, no screenshots as yet. But it runs Android Cupcake, and pretty fast too (for an old phone). Really, this project is going somewhere, and Android is very usable on the device with such a great keyboard.
Perhaps a very techy person could make a little video?
All you need is an micro SD card, may be 30minutes and being prepared to pull your battery when you're done...
If you're a linux programmer, that'd be cool too.. I desperately need info on how to reset the Excalibur in software

PsFreedom Tytn II

See this...
xxx.youtube.com/watch?v=b_vCp7gj7W8
Does this mean something?
maybe it will give you guys some ideas...
I guess there is a way to do this, but maybe need change some codes...
In the PSfreedom wiki I see a lot of devices compatibles yet, including Nokia, Palm and HTC phones.
We need a guy with the knowledge to make this port for the Kaiser, and here is the most probable place to find him!
Port kernel psfreedom on HTC Kaiser
Hello;
I also have a Kaiser with the Kaiser rom CyanogenMod 6 [RLS5.2] and kernel-kaisimg panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-02-09-10_16.nbh.
But when I try to load the module with "insmod psfreedom.ko su", you get an error "insmod: can not insert 'psfredom.ko': invalid module format".
I wonder if someone could not compile a kernel with the module in order to load the module to the application.
a developer want to try?
How much of the source is device specific?
Very little is device specific, you basically need to implement two very small functions, the problem is getting these two functions to work!
[edit] How hard is it to port it to a new device ?
The device specific code is separated from the core so it’s quite easy, there are mainly two functions to write, one to get and one to set the USB address.. two other functions that only return some static result depending on the configuration of the controller (the name of the endpoints, and whether the controller supports high speed or full speed mode). The real problem is that some controllers can be tricky and may not work as you would expect...
Read the README file provided with PSFreedom, and check the psfreedom_machine.c file for specifics on what to implement.
[edit] How can I port it to a new device ?
First, you need to figure out what controller your device uses, in the case of the N900, it’s ‘musb’, you can use the ControllerList to help you, if it doesn't, then extend it!
Then go to the driver code for that controller (probably in drivers/usb/gadget) and look for ‘SET_ADDRESS’. In the case of musb, it was in drivers/usb/musb/musb_gadget_ep0.c. In there it was setting the address to the USB device, so just copy that code into the psfreedom_machine.c to allow setting the address, and add a similar function to be able to retreive the address.
Then add a function to return 0 or 1 depending on whether the controller supports HIGH, FULL or LOW speed mode (go to usb_gadget_register_driver for your controller, and in the first lines, it should validate the speed argument, it will tell you which ones are acceptable), set LOW speed mode to return TRUE only if FULL and HIGH speeds are both unavailable.
Finally, add a function to return the endpoint names.. it will usually be something like ‘epXin’ and ‘epXout’ (where X is the endpoint number), or “epXin-bulk”, etc.. look at how the driver initializes its endpoints or grep for “->name” in the file to find where it sets it… If the controller you are porting to doesn't have an endpoint matching the endpoint description requested, then you are allowed to return a different endpoint as long as you properly modify the endpoint description to set the bEndpointAddress to the correct address address of the new endpoint (but you still have to respect the direction of the endpoint of course!)

I spent some time working on this. I am sure it is possible.
I think there are two things that would have to happen.
1. A custom kernel. - I know there are a few things that must be disabled in the kernel. ADB USB Functionality, USB Mass Storage Functionality, Tethering, and on some devices WiFI. (I forget where I read that these must be disabled, but I did read it)
2. Changes to the code.
I am no expert at this, I think I am proficient at doing SOME things. I created a zImage last night. I know I am missing something tried to create a custom NBH and put it on my kaiser no go.
So, think I'll be spending more time on this. Anyone had any luck working on this at all?
UPDATE:
I did some pocking around, this is what I found in msm72k_udc.c for the closest thing to SET_ADDRESS (It was USB_REQ_SET_ADDRESS)
Code:
writel((ctl.wValue << 25) | (1 << 24), USB_DEVICEADDR);
I will be honest unsure if this is the driver for the controller due to the fact that on the device the usb driver is msm_hsusb. However, I tend to be wrong more than I am right so....
This phone is capable of it i'm sure. I just tried every other psfreedom releases and experienced different behaviours with each one of them. Though i know that zImage needs to be modified. I'm no programmer so i can't really help anyone with this.
So let's hope someone work something out.
OK I think It is not the msm72k but the msm_hsusb, when you look at the device it shows that in the usb driver folder.
Based on the psfreedom site is "in progress". Hopefully someone smarter than I is working it bc dont think Ill get far.
i'm looking for a tytn2 port too! Thanks for all of you that's working for it.
sugestion...maybe put this thread as an official for psfreedom kaiser info?
thanks!
diamond port finished http://wiki.psfreedom.com/wiki/HTC_Raphael
this version can help for kaiser porting?
Yep as far as i know this is a good start...
Hi guys just passing by to show you something...
http://xdandroid.com/wiki/Supported_Devices
This android port works with kaiser as you can see in the compatibility table.
Is there anyone who's able to modify zImage for us?
I think we're getting close. The only problem so far is the usb driver.
Come on guys you can do it!

There is someone working on the msm_hsusb usb driver yes.
Let's wait and see
I think the usb on kaiser working.. mean someone tell me it work on linux.. but in WXP can it fork too I think.. someone can use usb on W7 x64. But I can't get it work there...
Can anyone tel me how get it fully work on W7 x64? Thanks
Sent from my HTC Kaiser Ion using XDA App
come on guys, u can do it!!!!!
Is still on development?, or nobody will continue?, its a shame, kaiser is very usefull on android Roms, maybe is not that easy to port.
By te way, is a port for HERO on the wiki, and kaiser runs several roms from Hero smartphone, is this useful?
http://wiki.psfreedom.com/wiki/Device_compatibility_list
Regards.
msm_hsusb is just an other driver for the MSM72K controller, which is used in older kernels.

Chuwi Vi8 Questions?
Thank you very muchfor the great review zijin_cheng
I have some questions about this great tablet, i would really appreciated if you can answer
what is the available free space in Windows and Android partitions?
Is it possible to remove Android partition and extending Windows partition?
Is there any recovery partition, if yes, how much space is allocated by recovery?
Is it possible to install windows 10 to this tablet?
Is it possible to use WIMBOOT method for more free space?

No problem!
- It started with about 7GB free on Windows, and 4GB free on Android. 13GB total is allocated to the C:\ drive on Windows, and 7GB total for the Android partition.
- At the moment no, but I'm quite sure some resourceful XDAer will figure out a way.
- Yes, its 7GB (5.43GB + 1GB)
- Yes, but I believe that it will be more difficult due to the dual boot nature of this tablet
- I'm not sure, I haven't tried. However, I followed this guide to get more free space (as I also have the Asus T100)
Thank you very much
Nice cross-post from RFD, and great review!!
The Chuwi (and most other tablets like this) use WIMBOOT, where the recovery partition *is* the OS drive, and and changes and patches get saved to the C: to preserve the installation for recovery when needed.
There have been multiple successful attempts to install Windows 10, you need an OTG adapter so you can use a USB stick and a mouse/keyboard. General consensus is it works well, but probably best to wait for a later or full release version. A Google search will find you instructions though if you're looking to
do it immediately.
As for partition removal, I haven't really seen it discussed, but I'm sure there's a utility to nuke the unwanted partitions. Though you could just order the single OS version that only comes with Windows, but that model is missing the microHDMI.
Hello everybody,
just bought this tablet with dual boot. So in case if I want to reinstall the installed windows 8.1, how can I do it? After the reinstall, will the android system still be there?
Thanks
from singleboot to dualboot?
Hi! I also have this amazingly cheap tablet but I ordered it when the dualboot was not in stock.
Now I'm wondering if it is possible to actually make my windows 8.1 table into a dualboot with android.
I have downloaded android x86 and installed it on a partition but I just cant find out how to actually make the UEFI-bios boot from it. Also since I wasnt unable to boot from usb (no matter what settings I changed in the bios) I couldn't install the android system straight off the bootable usb so i installed it on another system and copied the contents to the new partition. I imagine that it wont work even if I actually succeed to make it boot from another partition.
Has anyone tried to install android as a second OS in this tablet? Please tell me how :S
Best regards
Matthew
The HDMI out on this unit, is it strictly mirror, or does it have the ability to show two separate Desktop?

Hey man, I'm believe so, but you have to make sure you choose the correct option when you go into the "factory reset" portion of the tablet itself.

So far all the videos of this tablet have only shown mirroring, no extended desktops, but I'm sure it can be done, if not with Windows maybe another piece of software.
Bluetooth keyboard on Chuwi Vi8
Hi guys, This a pretty silly questions, I wonder if anybody with this tablet has bought it whit the Chinese Bluetooth keyboard, and knows whether there is any way to use ESC and function buttons that appear in blue, on the upper keys. Using Fn+ any of these keys would do whatever but ESC or F1, F2, F3 etc. For instance, key 0... Fn+0 = Volume down, but not F10.
I have searched about this on the internet but haven't got any info.
Does anybody have the same issue? It'pretty frustrating when using excel on windows 8.1. I. I have the dual boot version whatsoever.
Cheers
Very good tablet, but last week I bought a Onda V919 3G Air, otherwise, I will buy this tablet.

Hey man I haven't bought the bluetooth keyboard with the Chuwi, but I've had problems with bluetooth keyboards in general as only basic keys work such as letters, shift, not even ctrl sometimes. Did the keyboard come with any software? Try to google the brand and see if there are any drivers.
And you're using excel on your Chuwi? Props! That's difficult!

Hey man I haven't bought the Bluetooth keyboard with the Chuwi, but I've had problems with bluetooth keyboards in general as only basic keys work such as letters, shift, not even ctrl sometimes. Did the keyboard come with any software? Try to google the brand and see if there are any drivers.

Thanks for the response!
Well, it doesn`t have a brand serial number or anything, I guess it is just generic hardware, it works very well, but anyways, maybe the ESC and Function buttons are fake.
In that case, there might be an app to reassign keys, I will check that.
And yes, using excel with chuwi, just to input lab data on the go, and analyse it with some charts, not a big deal.
I have this tablet and this is sick man its incredible that I have boot os on just one table this tablet would be perfect ithey would be with 64gb internal storage that of couse next gen will it have it . I really recommend this tablet hope some xda programer member open a tread and make custom rms and some root stuff hehehe the best 2015 130 dollar gadget XD
Decent enough for the price I paid.
Two gripes I do have, even so.
1) Screen expansion seems broken on Windows, if I turn it on, the tablet screen goes dark. Anyone managed to get both screens working at the same time?
2) It seems like USB OTG with simultaneous charging does not work - any chance to fix that?

I've updated the OP with information and will update it when others create ROMs for this.

I think the Chuwi Vi8 only supports screen mirroring, you'll need to find another piece of software
It's the USB OTG cable itself, you need one that supports both, something like this:

Anyone able to install Google Plus? Won't work for me.
Edit, fix here
