Hello everybody,
I would like to share with you this working/booting version of android. Because I read many people have trouble, getting the phone work, or problems with looping boot. I putted this together, with the right zimages and rootfs and an working startup.txt. everything is pulled together from this site so the credit goes to the other ones. But I think it is nice to have an zipped build of android 2.1 ready to go for Topaz!
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NRXPN3FV
The version is without sense.
Extract the rar to an empty sd card and run haret!
Have Fun!
How is this different from any of the other builds on this site?!?
To the untrained eye it would appear that the ones that are located in the (obviously) main thread are somehow broken or not working... People have issues, we do our best to help them hash it out. Threads like this are just going to create more confusion.
because it's copy and play, usefull for members who don't understand how to compile everything together, this is an good build, even usb works!

A) What are you talking about USB works?!? Are you saying that YOUR build has things that work in it that other builds do not?
B) The others are "copy and play" as well... I haven't compiled a kernel in months, but I still get updated packages. Just copy them to the SD... how is yours easier again?
that was what i was saying indeed, things work what on other builds does not, but enough i understand you don't want it

Somehow I doubt it. So what works in your build that doesn't in the main builds? Mods, can we please delete this thread entirely?

How are you having USB working? afaik the system is read only. And you can't mount USB as Android is being run on it.
Be abit more specifigc about which USB functionality you are referring to
This forum is for the Raphael, not the Topaz. Stop wasting everyone's time.

you can use your sd card as an diskdrive so you can add or delete files without having to boot to winmo

thank you for your work
thank you for trying tho

I'm not sure our devices can act in the 'slave' mode that he speaks of... but that would be interesting - and I'm not nearly proficient enough to understand a lot of the things he is talking about.
But, there are several devs who probably do and I'm sure if it's possible they will do it!
Isn't Headsetmode Slavemode,too!?
Update: There will be a Support for MSM72K Android Devices So Let's see if it will work

Guys from Desire forum have got it working.

Is there any chance of getting this working in Haret system? USB controller should be the same in Diamond/Fuze.
It should work on raphael.. //psfreedom.com/wiki/index.php?title=Device_compatibility_list (place http: for the link cant post full links)
Although it seems that it needs to be compiled for it first and maybe its a matter of time till somebody does it. Dont know how to compile so have to wait
Can't we just include the files of the G1 Package in the ext2 and then it should work?
http://psfreedom.com/wiki/index.php?title=G1&oldid=140
Change the title of the thread for something more... interesting.
"[DEV PETITION] PSFreedom for Raph/Diamond (it's working on G1)"
Or something like that...
well a HD2 Version is out i will try to modify it to get it working with our devices ...

It seems doesn´t work in HD2 too...
New build for HD2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=777120
Tried it too... It doesn't work.
Been trying to get something to work on my Diamond 500. I can get the haret to run, but errors out saying invalid execution or something... Then reboots...
Anyone try messing around with the files anymore? Maybe we can try to tackle what may be working in the HD2, that has it working on their phones.
It´s Done

cant get playstation to debug mode
I had posted this fix somewhere in the neopeek thread, but I think it got kidna lost so I wanted to post it in a new thread so people could easily find it.
On the neopeek builds, I noticed that wifi does not work for Rhodium even though someone keeps saying it is fixed. below is the fix I use every time I redo my rom which seems to work for every neopeek build. I am not sure if it is the "proper" thing to do to resolve the problem, but it seems to work for me. Those of you having wifi issues, please try and let me know if it works for you too.
1. Within linux (I use ubuntu) I mount my sd card
2. using a terminal I navigate to /SDCardMountPath/system
3. I run "sudo vi build.prop"
4. Next I find the line that says "wifi.interface" and change the value to eth0 so it should read "wifi.interface=eth0"
5. perfrom :wq!
6. Boot Haret.exe
** NOTE **
You cannot do this within android, when you reboot it will be reset to what it was before, you HAVE to do this within linux on your mounted SD card
wifi has been working for the last couple weeks on his builds..i think you were a little too late to figure that out

LOL +1. Also, why did you feel the need to create a new thread for this? Resist the urge to hit that new thread button!
Not on my device, (Rhod100) Even though everyone said it was working for them it was not working for me for some reason, and I have the latest test superfroyo build (was previously using the stable cm6 build)
I dont know why it was not working on my device but this fixed it every time so I thought i would share.
@arrrghhh - If you read my original post I stated exactly why I made a new thread. - Resist the urge to flame before actually reading.
Thank you RickoT! I have on the latest release (=Barebone) changed some thing sregarding init + build.prop! So on the Barebone it should also be fixed for you. Try it out and let me knwo if you have time! Otherwise RickoT provided a very useful info for Rhodium users due to the fact that right now atm not all builds include my changes from Barebone Release. So if WiFi is not working for you in any old build than you can fix it as stated by RickoT
FINALLY!! I thought everybody forgot about us unlucky Rhodium users! how exactly do i do this? on my comp and then put it on thereor with ubuntu on the phone? sorry, i'm a noob of sorts

If you're fixing something for a Neopeek build, it would make a heckuva lot more sense to put it in that thread...

Hi developers,
i have a big question:
I read some time ago, that it is possible to install android on NAND of the HD2.
My question is : is it possible to install it on the NAND on the Touch Pro?
Because it is really slow, if i run android over MicroSD card, and it would be awsome ,when android runs faster.
Best regards,
BikerBoy030
At the moment (and to my knowledge) the answer to your question is no. User e334 tried but failed and bricked his phone. You can read more about his attempt in THIS thread. He was attempting to find out a few values that are apparently required but he did leave a few hints of his findings in that thread.
By the way, what version or build (neopeek-variants or xdandroid) are you using and have you updated everything to reflect the latest that is out and relevant.
brick !!! too sad
So, is this the end of hope for NAND on touch pro ???
pls somebody told me !!!
For now, yes :enter sadface of choice here: However, the xdandroid dev team are steadily working at improving stability and adding features some doubted at first; such as camera which is, in testing phase atm. The only thing I can say is that, "it ain't over till it's over!"
n-Joie! (Enjoy)

Just FYI, NAND will not provide any improvements in speed. The optimizations really need to happen in the system, moving to NAND will not solve those problems.
The HD2 guys had a ridiculously complete port of Android when they were still on Haret. We're still not near that stage.
They have it easy, they just rip builds from Desire, etc...
thanks for the fast answer:
that is really sad, that he briked his phone....this is such a sweet phone
I used xandroid, updatet all and could use all programms etc.
But it wasn't smooth...it stocks a bit at all,what it did.
It feels like it used a "bullet-time-mode"
Maybe it would be enought if i willl overclock it to 710 mhz this COULD be enought, but i didn't tested it.
Wich version is more smooth: neopeek or xandroid?
Regards:
bikerboy030
To my knowledge, OC'ing will not help stability. If anything it will make it more unstable. Neopeek builds seem smoother but requires more setup time upfront (multi-partitions and what not). XDAndroid builds may seem rocky at first but are much quicker to setup and it has a nice plug-n-play feel.
n-Joie! (Enjoy)
i had no problems with the stability, it was only too slow.
than i will try neopeek, maybe it feels better.
the problem is: a good friend owns a desire z, overclocked to 1400mhz...that is smooth.....
but if the touch pro works smooth, it would be fine
Well, i can be totally honest to say as far as speed, that XDA android runs quicker then WM does even on my touch pro. I am running wm6.5.5 NRG rom (jan.4), which is pretty zippy to a month ago version of 6.5.5, noticably, but android is actually visually faster. Now that camera is working fine, battery i get around 7-8 hours with little less then normal usage, and would honestly use it SOLELY if it didn't randomly drop data and needed a reset to fix (which i usually just stay in WM when it happens.), but ALSO mostly since at work (IT Tech) i use tethering a lot to grab a driver almost daily (our net connection is 'clear' and is a bit worse in speed then my phone. SAD yes.)
Hmm ... I'm one of those people who eagerly await with great versions of NAND. What exactly is needed to it came to Raphael? Of course, I'm not asking for what must have been fixed and asking, I assume that in theory it already is. Let me add that I've read about, whose founder bricked his Raphael.
Bootloader is required.

Knowledge of how to write a bootloader? What do you mean?
We have one called tinboot that dzo wrote for the vogue guys. That's what the RHOD is using, but A LOT of work needs to be done to get it to work on other devices. It's not even a full NAND flash for the RHOD....

I would like to know what is needed to version NAND and how this process (creating nand and tools that you need, such as the bootloader and other ) should follow you. Of course, theoretically. Perhaps someone from another country would take on this (not everyone knows looks at XDA;-) maybe after the publication of the national forums that someone will take).

I'm no dev, so I won't be able to help you out directly. But look up tinboot, and look at what us TP2 guys have for a NAND bootloader thus far.
ACL has a GIT repo for our NAND tree that is publicly available as well.

The screenshots are not important. This is not a theme!
You can install a theme from here, for example if you like.
The theme it comes with is the:
Go Louncher Classical Theme (The new version of it)
The software installed is also not important, because you can remove it.
Google Market is installed, and you can install what ever you like, just like on your computer.
https://market.android.com
This is the actual Android Froyo operating system for the HTC Kaiser
So, stop asking me for screenshots and software installed, it's not relevant.
And the how to install guide is been posted here
Bug reports are welcome, other then that, I don't wont to hear from you.
Don't post a thank you either, there is a bottom for that, and you can also vote on the poll up there, but install and test it first!
Again Bug reports only, please!
I been working on this for 3 days straight, and figure I'll share what I got.
Everything seems to be working, except the camera is blurry, but that seams to be the norm.
Included is the rom, radio and kernel
ROM: 2.2.1
Kernel: 2.6.25
Radio: KAISER 1.70.19.09
Panel: 2
Key Map: US Normal
Resolution: 240x320
Storage: Nand & Nand
Most everything is installed in userspace and can be uninstalled or upgraded.
Oh got GO Launcher EX installed (Also in user space)

Yes, at first I compiled everything my self but then to resolve bugs, I looked at other systems and basically stole stuff from them to fix my bugs. In other words, I can't take all the credit, it was a community effort.

Anyone else having trouble getting the kernel to install?
I get to 33% and the phone reboots...
Radio installed fine even though I was already using 1.70.19.09, just to be sure I installed everything in the package.
Installed HardSPL 3.34 and a WinMo 6.1 rom (custom) to see whats wrong. Installed L1q1d's kernel and goes right in like it should.
Checked .NBH with NBHCreator and only found 1 thing wrong: kernel set to Eclair instead of Froyo. Changed to Froyo and saved, attempted reflash and still won't go in...
;(Losted);
I also tried to install this kernel but I can't. Flashing in hardspl after few second give folowing error:
00018003
Os Fail
Update Terminate
UPDATE Fail.
Changing parameters in atools not helping. Every another kernel is flashing without problems so it's not phone fault
Gruessle, thanks for your efforts! I want to try your rom but being a noob waiting for more comprehensive list of known errors before flashing it to my kaiser.
Ok, quick "bug report":
After working with the kernel pack multiple times I have come to the conclusion that there might be a bug in the actual kernel file itself, throwing a code back to HardSPL and RUU (how I install).
I first noticed a problem in that the kernel was originally set up for a Polaris and had no resolution set. The size of the file should be unimportant as Scoot's newer kernel is in the order of 3.2-3.3MB in size (with the RIL patch installed it gets even larger), this one is 3,099KB, and l1q1d's is almost always 3,092KB.
The second issue I noticed is with the Froyo package itself... It's split up into many files (open the package in 7zip and you'll see what I mean). Normally, the packer has the files all listed inside the .tgz file, this one has the files inside many other files.
I have thus not installed the system on either phone because (correct me if I'm wrong), the kernel contains the basic directories for where everything is installed, and if I were to try and install this package on say, l1q1d's kernel, the phone would most likely crash because the files would not be found, including /system.
If ANYONE wants to dig deeper into this problem, feel free to message me. Personally, I think we've about finished getting all we can from the Kaiser, and much respect goes out to those who have done all the work in the past, but there's always that glimmer of hope that someone will find a way to pack this into a working rom installable through RUU or HardSPL.
I have one last thing to say:
Gruessle, please do your homework BEFORE posting things like this. There are people out there who still depend on this phone to operate as it is their only phone. I Personally cannot afford to go spend $100-200 on a replacement phone if this one goes down (thats why I have 2 of them). If you post something that does not work on the platform that you say it will, please correct it or move it to the proper forum.
BTW, I call shenannegans on one of the 5-star votes... just sayin'.
Your kernel have fake ;/ . rom works great ;D
sorry for bad english;p

1) The kernel doesn't care where you place the files. Right now I use a debian system with Ferora and Gentoo in a chroot. Both work fine with the Debian kernel.
In other words, if you have a kernel that works for you then use that it should work with the rest of the installation.
2) I don't get what you mean with files are "split up into many files", I am just guessing but you must be extracting it wrong. Maybe it's a windows thing, I haven't used windows in 15 years so I wouldn't be able to help you with that.
3) I have included everything you need to duplicate what I got, which works for me, and it appears to work for others too. Now i don't use that phone much, and there might be bugs I am unaware of, but don't tell me it doesn't work at all, just because you can't get it to work.

barmalini, it appears that a few people have trouble installing the Kernel, but the ROM seams to work for everybody as far as I can tell.
According to my server records the files have been downloaded over 200 times and I have yet to hear a complain about the ROM.
So I would say try to install the Kernel, but if you can't still use the ROM with a Kernel that works for you.
If you have trouble installing from windows you can also try a live CD from debian or knoppix. I installed everything from a Debian system. (Knoppix is based on Debian)
If you don't know what a live CD is then go here for info:

PoXFreak,
you are not the only one having trouble, installing the ROM it appears.
I am wondering, are you also using Microsoft Windows to install the ROM?
If so can you try again with Linux, because it worked fine for me.
If you don't have Linux you can use a Live CD
Also if you can't get it to work, try the ROM with a Kernel that works for you.
Please report, I will check back.
