[ROM] Android Launcher Light ROM

- I've created this nbh for fun. Dont think this will be an updated work. I just think that someone would play with it and so it is here. -
WARNING: This is not a WindowsMobile ROM. This has just WM core actually required to launch Android.
Do you want only to use android, and you don't want to boot in WM before booting Android? This is what you need!
How it works:
It checks for haret.exe in your sd. If it is here, it launchs it immediately. You will see Android booting in 5 sec +/-
If it is not here it shuts down automatically your phone. There will be no booting in WM anyway!
Why? Fast booting is due to lack of most drivers and extensions. You won't be able to do anything in WM part...
Happy playing.

Fantastic
This is just fantastic !!!! thanks

If there is no driver, I guess nothing works in android (since the reason why there is no android ROM is because of the need of wince driver inits...).
So does USB work ? touchscreen ? data connection ? capactivie pad ?
Anyway, it sounds really great.
I have some requests though: a diam image, an option (vol up pressed at startup ?) to export the internal mmc on usb (internal storage sucks.), and a big contiguous space on the nand so that we can put android in this space.

I have a really ridicules question to you guys, since i'm no developer and just a simple minded end user
The hardware on most of HTC's phones seems to be exactly the same, with really minor differences in them (all based around the same qualcomm chipset). Why is it not possible to simply flash a HERO Android Rom, onto an identical "more or less" WM type of device?
I know it probably won't work, and would/could/should brick the mobile, but question is why?

This doesn't work. Just keeps looping "HTC quietly brilliant" splash screen. Did anyone actually try it? Maybe it's the type of flash card I am using (just a small 512MB formatted FAT). But this rom isn't working as intended...
Just tried reformatting FAT32. No dice.
Update 14JAN10: Not sure what mischy is talking about later "haret.exe that will automatically load" (doesn't startup.txt decide that?), but it definitely does not work for me -- it just loops through the HTC screen and keeps rebooting. Michy if there is a specific haret.exe to use, or something else (other than having a valid startup.txt) can you please tell us? I have unzipped the latested Connect-utb xandroid package and used haret.exe included - didn't work. Also tried directly from haret.exe author site -- didn't work. Also tried version linked here on XDA on the XDADEvloperWiki for Raphael. didn't work.

Gonna give this a shot, see what problems/joys I encounter
I wonder, since it seems haret requires stuff already activated in winmo to work in android, if this will affect anything, but I have also booted into Android with 3g off, but could still get it in Android.
EDIT: Okay, I tried it, and all I have gotten in the past hour or so is "Booting Linux" printed across my screen, and nothing. I've let it sit there for five minutes or so, nothing. Reset at least 6 times. Nothing. Done it with USB plugged in and with USB plugged out. Using a fuze, and have hard reset it twice since flashing.

to who haves devices locked on booting linux check first if problem is mine or yours before saying "this doesn't work".
You need a version of haret which AUTOMATICALLY boots not which requires user input

please cook for HTC DIamond ^^

Great work michyprima!!!
Great work, hope this works, so you don't need the windows mobile with drivers!!
Seems to be very speedy 5 seconds!!
Once, when everything works in android i will keep this as an option, since more and more is working in android!!!

How would you go about reflashing a normal WinMo rom after the fact?

Flashable Android ROM

This has most definately (I would assume) been asked before, but for some reason I can't find any info about. I wanted to know if there is a way(possible) to develop a flashable Android 2.1 ROM to the Tilt 2 (or any other windows mobile device)? I ask because I personally would want to fore-go the HaRET method since this is just Android running on top of Windows Mobile and therefore you won't see the speed benefits or full functionality of Android. If this hasn't been done yet it seems like it should be possible since the HTC phones share a lot of the same hardware i.e. Hero and touch pro2. Can anyone provide info as to why this is or isn't possible?
Thanks

This is currently in development i believe but in practical terms we would need a fully functioning ROM first in order to make a flashable Android ROM practical...Haret is easy because you can boot right back to WinMo...instead of having to reflash your device

Android does not run on top of windows. Running android using haret can be viewed as booting up a Live CD on your computer. A complete flash (over writing WM OS in ROM) might be possible in the future. Take a look at the Kaiser and Vogue forums the ability to flash into ROM already exists for those two devices. The problem with porting android into any device is that most of the information such as drivers, hardware chip sets etc. are not publicly available. The devs here, are in some cases literally reverse engineering parts of the phones hardware trying to get things working. Just give em some time and support.

Yup, If you look at the kaiser android threads they do have android running from nand removing WM completely. I think they want to get a functioning build before they start trying to flash to nand. One step at a time.

With a live CD you actually boot from the cd and never touch windows. With haret, you boot into windows and run it.
Are you saying it unloads windows?
Windows is not still running underneath?
I was looking for info to determine if I would be better off running the most stripped down lean version of windows for better android performance.. but from this post it sounds like it does not matter?? Is this true?

i think the best way right now is to use the minimum rom for winmo, and use that dualboot program.

HaRET completely unloads Windows Mobile from memory before loading the Linux kernel, and eventually Android, rather than simply running Android alongside Windows Mobile. If you know what loadlin was, it's essentially the same concept of unloading one OS and loading another, without shutting down the device. Therefore, the ROM you're running doesn't actually affect the speed at which Android, or any other Linux distro, runs.

I would definitely be willing to give nand flashing a go once battery is working, as i dont use sound, bluetooth or gps, it would be nice to just have android on rather than having to boot into winmo first

Still not even close to that, we gotta get the system to up to stable state since their would be no way to reboot if something were to lock up. its not a matter of if, just a matter of when. I had the vogue for a long time with the flashable image and it was the best thing ever with just how stable its gotten. it turns your old ass device into a new beast quite literally. the only thing bothering me is the prioritization of the current devs working on the builds.
Can someone tell me the name of the users who are working on the driver/kernel? i might be able to help them get those drivers working.

the cab version of AOSP 2.1, the new build, is just as good right now. The battery life is decent while running Android. Plus if u dont want to boot into windows first, get The Gene Y Dual Boot cab..its here on the forum. get the one that points to the "andboot" folder. then u can just boot straight into Android. I got it. Wrks fine. Thats just intil a flash available. but me personally, i like the option of both Wm or Android. The More , the Merrier,..lol

Hi guys, here is another USB driver for KIN TWO which is a little bit different to the one uploaded above.
http-//rapidshare.com/files/456921463/KUSBDrivers.rar
( - should be replaced with : )
Thanks to every one here.
Let's work together/

This looks to be exactly what we are looking for. This will definitely open up the possibilities of modifying the current kin os, or porting a new os to the device. However, this guide is useless without the tools and files mentioned in the document. You said you had some files as well, do you have these files?
SPST Vn.n.n.msi.
PB10ZUnPB20ZU (Lab) Vn.n.n.msi.
SPSTUSBDriverInstall.msi.
InstallPMXMTP.msi
With these files we be able to finally successfully hack this phone.

This is great. We have the resources, now we must figure out how to get a modified os on the phone using the tools.

Awesome find KinPhoneLover; not sure how and where you got this SPST, but it could be the very thing that is needed. For people who bricked their kin phones, they should try the "refurbish feature" to see if that will successfully reset their phones back to "factory mode". As for getting a new OS on the phone, in the pdf at the "Upgrade section", when you browse for the firmware file, it is a .ecn file. Not sure how flashing is done for Cyanogen and those other Android custom firmwares, or their file type extensions. If SPST only supports/allows .ecn files, that could be a problem trying to use those Android custom firmwares.

wow, this is exactly what we needed....did this get leeked or something? it says its from the sharp corp., so im guessing they got it somehow by chatting with them? why isnt there a lot of buzz about this??? i can read my phone number and everything off of this...so close to getting android, or just putting java apps on it..

Too bad its only 32 bit But yes. This is one step closer. Please, people with brick kin, test it out. See if we can get the ball rolling again.

yes, i have to use my slow home computer, instead of using my quad core 64bit laptop

Just got everything up in running. Is anyone else having a problem with the SPST constantly dropping the connection with the phone and reconnecting? I'm not sure if this is due to running XP in a virtual box or if its something I can readily fix.

Short Answer: doesnt work.
Long Story: This needs your phone to be ON even for refurbish option and then, able to connect to a COM port. Unfortunately, that doesnt happen in SBL / APX mode and phone doesnt boot (autoreboots) so no COM mode available.
Just another software installed (for me).
No news in the front, guys. I guess i just need to get rid of verizon software (the one trying to get an OTA), not something from "normal" kin states.

Okay so now that we have a tool to upgrade the software all we need are custom firmware files to flash to it. However I don't see any option to read/dump the firmware using this software.

dezgrz seems to be correct, there don't seem to be a way to read/dump the current OS to make a backup of it. The PRL and ERI options don't seem to be what we want. The Provision option is the only option where we can read stuff from the phone. Could someone run that option, check all those settings (NAM1, security, feature, data, etc) and write it to a file and upload it? Maybe there will be something useful in there.

I gotta order a new battery, then I'll see if I can get anywhere with this... need to load up a 32bit OS first, apparently.
Either way, this is a huge step. Maybe not complete, but still a huge step. Thanks OP.

Hm..??
This seems interesting. I been watching this site until someone "Exploited" the phone. I have a mac, and does this work for kin? What does it do?

That features seem to be available already with "QPST" software... which didnt make anything advance (yet).
As i said, i renamed my NAM succesfully, and changed some security options (which i guess that doesnt matter, cause i *was* able to work anyway).

not much you can do that you cant do already, besides looking at your phones info. I was able to change voicemail numbers, was *86, i changed it to to just 8, and it says voicemail, but doesnt connect. Still playing around.

Why don't you just take it back to Verizon and get a replacement. How would they ever know you messed it up trying to hack it?

This phone needs to get hacked. I love my phone but i dont like the OS that the phone has. If this phone isnt hacked by the time summer comes, ill be glad to participate. I've hacked many phones but this may be a challenge. I would like to see apps on this phone.

[Q] Help! Rhodium100 charging but no connection to PC

Hello guys!
I am noob right now. I just bought an used rhodium100 and I am trying to install a new rom on it. It has a different language, one that I do not understand.
So I read and read, and I download HardSPL app, RUU, and I wanna get it going when I realize that my phone is not recognized by my computer, nor by a laptop of a friend (both using windows 7). So my question is:
Can it be something wrong software wise that does not allow to connect to the PC or is a hardware thing for sure?

Are you plugging it in while in bootloader mode, or while in WinMo? Bootloader mode = tri-color screen where you flash.
Honestly, I would flash via SD. Much easier, no need to worry about drivers or any of that nonsense.

Thanks dude for that quick response.
I tried in both ways. As I said, I tried not to be a complete total noob and I read and read.
I tried to flash it via SD card, but I guess the previous owner did not HardSPL it, so when I reboot it in bootloader, it just goes to the screen "Loading..." and it freezes. I've let it over night but it just drained the battery and no progress.
Any other idea?

You should be able to HSPL from the SD. You just can't revert HSPL from SD.
Also, you can tell at the tri-color screen if it's unlocked or not - if you see anything about OliNix, it's unlocked.

well,there was nothing about olinix. So it's not unlocked. Can you tell me how to HSPL it from the sd? Can I then install the ROM via sd card? I do not need to revert the spl.

It's on that thread. You basically flash HSPL with SD. I could be mistaken, and you can only relock with SD? I can't remember. If I recall correctly, you can only go one-way with flashing via SD....

You should be able to change the language, but I would sort out why you can't flash. That's pretty crippling and IMHO makes a useless device.

I do not have any clue how to fix your problem, it might be a software related, a cable issue or even the MB/connector could fail.
You could translate the rom using a cab file, but this isn't easy and requires a lot of resources and knowledge.

XDAndroid is completely different. Please don't mix issues here - Android questions go in Android section, preferably in the build thread you're using. That probably does rule out a hardware issue with the USB port on the phone tho.
I would ensure that you guys have the right setup for flashing. Make sure you try different USB ports, different cables, etc. Triage.

I understand that. I just said that the connectors are OK. Working. If android can connect so should original ROM load, or at least that's what I think it should.
I just hate that neither in active synch nor in bootloader mode can't connect it. Is there any program that facilitates the connection?

Nothing shows up in Device Manager? Have you tried looking at hidden devices? I've never really had a problem with the computer detecting it.

nothing shows up. Just like it was never or is never connected.
I am running now xdandroid. at least I understand the language.
But I would like the windows mobile OS because I have some programs that only run on it.
Well... is there any way to fully delete the memory? the ROM memory? wipe it clean?
It may help I think... :-?

Asus Vivo RT recovery files

Here's the VivoRT recovery files for anyone who wants them.
To get this working you will need to create a recovery drive from Windows RT. It will still create the USB recovery system even if you do not have the recovery partition files on your C drive anymore.
So what you want to do is create the recovery then unzip the files and copy them to the USB replacing the files there.
That's it! You should be able to boot and use the recovery.
http://patcas.tech/share/vivort.zip
Hope that helps. And if it does hit the thanks button.

If anyone has the recovery files for the surface, i can host those too. Just PM me.

thanks. does this mean i can delete the recover files off the tab itself to free up space?

if you want to. I will have these up for at least a year or 2.

Ill pull these down tonight. You are a good man.

I'll be trying it out later today. Thank you! :good:
It makes no sense why Asus doesn't include it on their website. I understand it's a big file, but they should have a system in place to prove you own the tablet, so you can be allowed to download the restore files.

Thank you very, very much...I misplaced the USB drive where I'd backed up the recovery files, and now the TF600T is acting hinky...

Hi guys! Thank you! Could you explain to me how to use this recovery?

Anyone have a mirror? I started downloading it than it froze, when I tried to restart it I was asked for a UN/PW.

Sweet dreams
I can assume that I cannot install this over my Windows RT surface 32gb, right? That would be too easy to enable me to turn off secure boot and install an open OS, just dreaming...

You are indeed correct that you cannot install this onto a surface. Besides, why would you when there are surface recoveries available?
There is no open OS running on any of the devices so far

Thanks for the reply. I read that the UEFI could be disabled on other versions of this OS, that said I assumed that ASUS said to MS: we want the possibility of disabling this option, like LG and others. Windows, however does not wish this to ever happen until it goes to court and then an "update" will free us from their bloody claws. There is much work on the UEFI site in Linux, but it is stalled waiting for MS to 'approve' and 'sign' the open efi files for the rest of us to be able to use them, but this has been already a year now and I feel it may be a futile effort asking MS to approve to put something better on their devices... they will never to it. They are now worse than Apple in their politics, which is hard for me to believe that I believe, but the truth does not lie.
