it seems that i asked this b4....
but i still have problems...
the scenario now is
1. i put autorun.exe and config.exe in "/storage card/essential/" folder
2. i put cabs into that folder
3. i edit the config.txt so that it points to these cabs
......but above did not work. nothing happen when clicking autorun.exe
did i miss something??
or the cab has to be remake?
those cab are just normal cab that ask where to install.
one more thing, can CPY function work with "*.*" command or does it support copying folders?
Hi,
There is already a thread on this topic.
Look here.

i have read this thread
but i m not making a ext rom now....
i wanna run the autorun.exe on SD card instead of extrom
actually i just want to make a batch installer not ext rom
could anyone help help on this?
Just make a shortcut to the autorun.exe on the SD card, and put it in Windows\Startup folder. BUT, make sure you delete it after it runs, or remove the SD card before rebooting, or you will have multiple installs...
@drummer10630
coz i put all the cad and sutorun.exe in SD card
is that mean autorun.exe cannot run manually?
I never tried it, but are there any disadvantages to the method I suggested?
i just tried it..but it dosent work
..wondering if autorun can only be executed in extrom
hi
any news? i have the same problem/
thanks
Theoretically, this method eliminates the need for using GParted or any Linux Ubuntu to install Neopeek android ports (or XDandroid if babijoee decides release Ext2 ) Partition within Windows.

I have also found a program (shareware) that can open, add files, and recompress tar.gz files (especially androidinstall.tar.gz) I have tried using 7-zip, Win-Zip, and Win-Rar to do this but Winrar and Winzip will not allow me to do thos. 7-zip just gives me a memory allocation error.
Normally, you would have to install .apk files one by one which is time consuming but by adding the apk files you want to install to the directory /sdcard/npkinstall/androidinstall.tar.gz/data/apps , you can save time and it will automatically install it when you run install.exe or when you first install a neopeek android port onto your device.
The program name is "PowerArchiver"

A video to demonstrate the process of installing neopeek builds..

I am going to use this video on my site if you don't mind!?!? Some users still have problems to get an EXT2 partition working! Especially windows users have this kind of problems! Anyway thank you for sharing this. Great work!

I could add apk into the tar.gz with total commander with installed bzip plugin.
i didnt try to install the new androidinstall, but next time i'll add some apps before installing.
I haven't tried total commander for PC with the bzip plugin but I'm sure its a better method than using PowerArchiver but it works both ways.
I also tried G-zip but it wasn't very noob friendly.

Yes, but to my knowledge you can only run one neopeek build.
I basically have a folder called "Androids" and then I have several builds in their own folders. You just have to adjust the startup.txt in each to reflect the folder location.
Oh and if you're having problems dual booting windows mobile and neopeek builds with GEN.Y dual boot (not dual booting 2 android builds though) follow this link..

did u mean by adding rel_path=XXXXXXXX on the startup.txt? i will give it a try to store neopeek build and xdandroid build on same sd card this way.
by the way, i already dual booting my winmo and android but i just can't resist the temptation to try latest android build by xandroid and noepeek. they both awesome

You add "rel_path=path/to/android" to the cmdline section... This would be if the build was 3 folders deep from the root. If you just have Android say in a folder 'andboot' off of the root of the SD, your statement would read "rel_path=andboot" - make sense?
You also realize this has absolutely nothing to do with the builds that require an ext2 partition right? It's just a way to organize multiple builds of Android, but only the "normal" builds that don't require an ext2 partition.
How about the 8 gigabyte sd memory?
I understand 2G sd rom format, but when I format 8G sd as you showen with my own size, android phone could not distinguish it exactly. Could you explain about the 8G sd card?

From what i know on the sd card there must be 3 partition:ext2 and swap have to be always the same size (EXT2: about 350 mb and SWAP: 64 mb) and the fat32 one has to be the free space should be something like 6.5-7gb on 8 gb card,
What problem do you experience?

Great! Thanks e334, updating rootfs.img in Neopeek's ROMs should now be easier with your how to guide.
Do you think it should deserve a new thread instead of using this "howto format ..." thread? If I may, would suggest something like [Howto] Update rootfs.img in Neopeek ROMs. "Older ROMs" do not apply to XDAndroid ROMs because updating those even if older is straightforward.
Ok.. I will do that then..
thanks! mod may now delete off-topic post's from this thread ... including this & my previous post.

Hi all,
Sorry if this is a easy one, but im having a bit of a day and cant work out how to sort this (I swear ive had this problem before but cant remember how or if I fixed it).
When I press keys like fn and Q (to get @) I get ! instead.
Ive looked around and it seems that I can fix this by adjusting the default.txt file which ive tried and hasnt worked.
Id rather not do a reinstall.
Thanks
easy
in default.txt
look for key you should set it to one i think

add what's between the ' (if it's not already there):
Code:
'board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=0' normal
'board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1' AT&T tilt
'board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=2' Nordic (Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish)
'board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=3' azerty (French)
'board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=4' qwertz (German)
Hi, ive tried this and it doesnt seem to work. I am editing the correct default.txt? Its in andboot?
I cant work out where to change it to 0, do I add it at the beginning by adding set board-kaiser-keypad-atttilt ?
Getting more confused. =S

As attached, many thanks.
Right at the end of the default.txt the line
Code:
set cmdline "ppp.nostart=0 pm.sleep_mode=1 mddi.width=240 mddi.height=320 no_console_suspend board-htckaiser.panel_type=1 board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=0 hw3d.version=1"
boot
Since your default.txt says board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=0 change that to board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=1
(looks like you got a tilt keyboard version, instead of the 'normal' one)

I think he has the "normal" keymapping as he's trying to get @ with fn + q.
so it should be 'board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=0'.
Just to make sure, you have a folder called andboot on your sd? and there's only one default.txt inside? if so and you're still getting problems. Try to wipe the sd and start over. You should only have androidinstall.tar, initrd.gz, default.txt, haret.exe, and zImage inside the andboot folder.
or try this default.txt

Hi, thanks for putting up with me, there is only one default.txt in a folder called andboot on my sd card.
I tried making the changes as well as using the default.txt you supplied.
Something isnt right here as its not working, my android is installed to the sd card, so it has system.img etc, does this make a difference?
I dont understand what im doing wrong, im not an expert on Android, but I do work in IT support so im not a complete idiot, lol.
Thanks

Only thing I would suggest doing is starting completely over. Wipe your sd card and start with a fresh andboot folder and install a fresh system. If that doesn't work, then I am out of options.
Ok I did a complete reinstall to the device itself rather then on the sd card.
It worked but only for a while, it then changed back to the wrong key mapping.
I did this reinstall along with another Kaiser, both with same OS, same setup etc, only difference is the one that has "changed" back has a sim in it.
I tried looking for a default.txt but there isnt one? Does one not exist for direct installs to Kaiser?
I am really confused.
Thanks,

If it's a nand install there is only the nbh (which is flashed to the phone) and the androidinstall which is installed to the internal memory. the default.txt just told haret what to do, and since you're not using haret, no need for a default.txt. When you install the system again, try going to Setting>Language & keyboard and uncheck Touch Input. I've had issues where capital letters weren't working, etc. and that solved it so maybe it goes beyond that. Worth a shot.
how do I run this build off SD card??? I downloaded "androidinstall.tgz" from incubus's thread and I got the basefiles which includes haret and other necessary files. But when I run haret after couple of lines it says system.img not found.
I did put the androidinstall.tgz in the root of SD card!!! I have read the guide on how to boot using haret but new builds doesn't not have system.img files anymore. Can somebody please shed some light on this?
Sorry for the noob question!! I need to run it off SD coz I need to have WinMo as well.
The guide you read was out-of-date, the more recent system now requires that the androidinstall.tgz/tar goes in the andboot folder with all the haret files.
If you are running from SD your card root should have one folder, no files.
If you would like an alternative and more recent guide to using Android on Haret then may I suggest you have a look at the one in my Polymod thread, post #3 has a quick guide to running Haret installs, it's mostly geared to running Polymod, but should be useful for other Haret installs also
( Link in my sig ).
I am a newbie with this, so bare with me, please. I am cooking the stock 3.70 evo rom with the kitchen. I enabled apps2sd. Can I put apps in the /system/sd folder? Or don't I put anything in the folder at all?
