First of all, I'd like to thank all the super-talented people on this board that have persevered and have managed to create and tweak these Android ports for our devices. You peeps truly are amazing! Never would I have imagined running Android on my nearly-ancient TyTN II, but now I can.
Now that the praise is out of the way...
Are there any (or are there any coming soon) Android ports that would allow for full functionality on my TyTN II and actually be stable? For example, USB connectivity doesn't appear to work. As soon as I connect it to my PC, it starts and stops continuously. The Bluetooth functionality seems to be present, but whenever I attempt to connect a headset to the device, it only recognizes it for music playing, not for calls or as a hands-free device. In addition, it doesn't matter whether I overclock or not, I'm still hounded by constant application crashes and it seems to get worse the longer the device is on. These things (at the least) are constants no matter which port I install.
Any ideas or suggestions?
In the end, I'm still very thankful for all the talent here at XDA and am amazed at all you've accomplished.
Thanx again.
I have had my old Tytn2 running Android fast and stable for weeks now - details in my sig. Edit the nbh for Kaiser and your panel then you just need to do two extra things:
1. Run the wifi fix
2. Get hold of an app called SD Dual Mount for USB mass storage.
Not sure about BT. I don't use it on mine.
Like you I am in total awe of these guys getting Android working so well on our ancient devices.
u can run it but its not going to be as stable as a native android phone i dont think...
Eventually it will be.
So, nothing right now to stabilize and utilize the full functionality of a BlueTooth headset? Thanx again.
Question... is the 2.6.25 supposed to be better than the 2.6.32 ??

Nope, they are the same as linux kernels just ported to our phones. .25 is almost two years old lol. It is stable though as it is more developed for our kaiser.

What will i miss on using the .25 ? and what will i gain?
I've seen things like "2.6.25 users get the wifi patch here"
So we need a patch for wifi ?

yup there's a patch 4 wifi... but yaffs arent implemented over .25 right? couldnt that be intetesting????

Personally I'd go with .32 at this point. .25 isn't any more stable on my phone as far as crashes and lockups are concerned. And data loss issues with .32 seem to be mostly ironed out (I would still keep a /data backup in case tho).
Plus the performance increase from .25 to .32 is well worth it.

32 is probably better at this point. For quite a while, 2.6.25 would survive crashes better, but I think they're pretty much equal now in that regard. The 25 branch doesn't get attention of developers anymore.
Not to mention the .25 kernel is right about 2 years old now.

kernel update
sorry for dummies question, but...
I have tytn ii as all of you, and have same bug with all 3 versions of Android setuped on it.
The microphone not working at least, so when i call somebody, i hear him, but he isn't hear me.
All other, include wifi, internet working good.
I found that it's well-known bug, and kernel version change could help.
But how to change it?
All versions i downloaded, based on 2.6.25, it's 2.6.25-01106-g50cf5f2-dirty on my device.
I found zImage file 2.6.32 but when i change zImage in andboot and restart - it's don't help.
i found NBH file for tytn ii ( kaisimg-panel2-240x320-2.6.32-tilt-froyo-09-09-10_21.nbh) , but how to install it?
Pls help!
Try one of these:
http://androidhtc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=androidhtc/kernel-release.git;a=tree
If ur having problems look for a guy named l1qu1d, look at his signature it says something bout "atools" click on it and follow the guide....

There will be a formal list when it drops. I will make a thorough post of what's changed when the time is right.
The big ones are RIL & BT. Audio routing won't make FRX07, so BT audio won't work, but pairing with BT devices & transferring data should.
Great , thanks!
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
seems silly to me to evenrelease fr0x7 without the BT and the audo routing fixes already in place at least for the rhodium users., i understand that the BT and audio routing fixes are mostly RHOD specific so why not make 2 version's of FR0x7? Those are the changes that most ppl weant they want there BT and loud speakerphone. Just curious as to why it would even be released without those things since the fixes are out, if it means having to wait to release fr0x7 than wait IMO. i donno just my 2 cents
Audio routing isn't stable,isn't for all the devices and it's still being developed
So it's a time waste adding it now,then frx08 will have it..

Kernel issue, not a build issue from what I can tell.

Bluetooth data would be great. I have an asus transformer which will not connect to an adhoc network, so WiFi tethering is out. The only solution I can find for tethering a honeycomb tablet is through pdanet tablet, which requires android on both devices and uses bluetooth. Thanks for all the hard work.

Is there a wpa supplicant hack for the transformer? My A500 tablet has the same issue stock, but with mod or custom ROM wifi tethering to my rhodium works perfect on ad-hoc. Anyway, maybe worth looking into.

Yes there is. I'm on an adhoc posting this from my TF right now. check the TF section for the xoom supplicant file or just flash prime 1.5 as this fix is already implimented in that rom
Will it have the new MMS fixes? That's the biggest thing missing for me. People love to send pictures and I always have to boot WiMo and ask them to resend it.

Yes, it will work for all carriers assuming you set your APN. Still hashing out the best way to do this, might just have to leave it up to the end-users to configure.
I flashed prime on my TF last week. Works great and has the WPA supplicant fix already built in.
I can tether to my TP2 in winmo or whatever! Works GREAT.

Not easily, there's many, many changes. The easiest way would be to pull from the XDAndroid repo (all of our code is available...) and build your own system image.

This are the news about sixaxis working in android devices.. but I've used the compatibility checker from the markent and SGS II don't have the bluetooth protocols.
Maybe anyone with Cyanogen can try it?
I remember reading that someone using MIUI got the Wii controller to work, I assume that it would work for the PS3 controller as well.
I tried it on my old Milestone and it was fun, I hope someone can get this working on the Galaxy S II.

It can connect when you are on a CM7 rom.
However, I cant figure out how to make it work correctly in game.
It works once you flash a AOSP rom (CM7 or MIUI) because the bluetooth driver is the stock one, and not the samsung one.
You can use it in emulators but not in games because devs doesn't support controllers for now (Hope it will not take too long for them to support it )
I can not even make it work 100% in emulators. Some og the buttons work, but most of them don't...
What emulators have you tried ? I tried with FPSE, Snes9x EX, and a GBA emulator and all worked !
I'm on MIUI ROM and i use fpse, psxdroid and also gameboid, all work on this emulator have to use hardware key mapping.

Isn't that the point of replacing the Bluetooth stack? It's definitely not an hardware issue if you could just load up a new ROM and make it work.
Help! Sgs2 does not recognize the SIXAXIS, even though I changed the Bluetooth address. What can be wrong? I have CM7.
What are the steps you did to pair it with your phone ?
r34p3rex=> I don't understand what you want me to answer... I already said that the bluetooth stack was the stock one in CM7 and MIUI (so yes, it is possible to replace it), and that Samsung's firmwares has a different one that is not compatible with controllers. If your question is "Can we replace the bluetooth stack in Samsung's firmwares ?" then I don't know, I'm not a dev ^^

This is what I mean. It'd be pretty sweet if a ROM dev could incorporate the stock Bluetooth stack into their Samsung-based ROMs
IMO AOSP roms are better than Samsung's roms. Have you tried one of them ? I swear you won't regret it ! ^^
If I remember correctly (I think I read it somewhere, but not sure) the Samsung bluetooth stack has dependencies with TouchWiz (and all other things added by Samsung) so it will be too hard, maybe impossible, to just change this. I may be wrong, but I think it would already be available if it were possible...
I tried to pair the SIXAXIS controller motioninjoy program, with usb cable. I switch controller to the computer, I downloaded the drivers from the application menu and changed the bluetooth address in menu, but its not working! =S

Try with SixaxisPairTool instead of motioninjoy.
Yeah try SixaxisPairTool. Motioninjoy is weird... I tried it first and it didn't work. When I used SixaxisPairTool I realised that Motioninjoy was not entering the MAC address correctly (ie: Instead of 11:22:33:44:55:66 it was 66:55:44:33:22:11 with Motioninjoy) So if you want to use Motioninjoy try to invert the MAC address, that way, Motioninjoy would put it the right way. Weird, isn't it ? ^^
I'm not a ROM developer so sorry if this is a dumb question, but is there any way to port kernels from another device? Or at least, the bluetooth stack? My friend has the Epic 4G Touch (Sprint version of our phone) and he has both MHL and a AOSP bluetooth stack on a Touchwiz ROM, which is what I want! I want to hook up my phone to my TV through HDMI for emulators, but none of the ROMS that we have so far are compatible with Sixaxis Controller or Wiimote Controller. Currently we can't have both:
Use MIUI or CyanogenMod 7 and Sixaxis works, but no MHL
Stock rom, MHL works, no Sixaxis
For what it's worth, this is the kernel he has flashed - http://androidforums.com/epic-4g-to...6ghz-oc-quadrant-4000-acs-pre-rooted-cwm.html
EDIT:
Update!
I just checked the market and it looks like the developer of the Sixaxis Controller has updated his app (yesterday in fact) so that it works with the Galaxy S II now. In celebration, here's a video of our little device playing some N64 with a Dualshock 3 - http://youtu.be/KOwQ9lqwgFQ
Subscribing to this thread for sure!
this is old news!!! its been working ever since we got cm7. i posted about this weeks ago and i already have it working with my ps 3 controller
But what the OP is saying is that with the new update to the SixAxis controller app you can use it with the stock ROM, which is the only rom that supports the MHL adapter streaming to your TV.
With CM7 you could use the Six Axis but weren't able to mirror the game you were playing on the TV.

To add to this, SixAxis controller has worked for AOSP roms (including, but not limited to CM roms) since the beginning of time. CM roms incorporated the correct BT stacks needed for SixAxis to work properly. Stock roms, for the most part, did not. I'm guessing the dev was somehow able to bypass the need for those specific BT stacks. I wonder how far the compatibility spectrum goes, now? 2.3?
i assume pairing the Sixaxis controller with BT is required?

Yea, that's not the point though. It finally works on the STOCK rom, so now you have HDMI out capabilities as well. CM7 and/or MIUI doesn't have MHL capabilities.

Yep that's correct. When you run the app, it will show your phone's bluetooth MAC address. You then plug the dualshock 3 to your computer and run a pairing app that will let you change the MAC address that the controller is paired to.

I think I read somewhere that at least Froyo is required, but don't quote me on that. I know the app works on my HD2 when it was at 2.3.2, so it goes back that far at least.

Umm.. always had sixaxis compatibility? Twas 1 of the reasons I got the GS2, that n my foldable BT keyboard xD..
Worked on GB wit no issues, n usin it since I first installed ICS... donno where u got ur info but its incorrect, as for MHL, can't verify, don't got the cable, can't buy here yet n never looked at importing. But to say Sixaxis don't work on stock is a load of bull, either that or my ps3 controller is magic xD which would suck, gotta get a new 1, right anolog is startin to go loose, n I donno where to buy another "magic" controller that obviously shouldn't work in the first place as per your statement.
Do any of the custom roms or kernels have bluetooth 4.0 support? The T989 uses a Broadcom 4330 chipset which has Bluethooth 4.0+HS. From what I understand the stock rom does not have the updated 4.0 drivers. This makes many of the new devices using Bluetooth Low Energy not compatible (many of the fitbit type devices).
Any ideas?
Thanks!
From what I know it has v3.0 with A2DP, HS and that's it. Remember this phone is from 2011. But the GS3 has 4.0

https://www.broadcom.com/products/Wireless-LAN/802.11-Wireless-LAN-Solutions/BCM4330
I've done some digging around and it appears that the 4330 can be made to enable BTLE. It requires updated Broadcom drivers and android 4.3+. There are a number of phones using this same chipset that have gotten BTLE to work (and pair with Fitbit like devices). Looks like the drivers need to be enabled in the kernel compile.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy Nexus running CM11 and it has the 4330 chipset as well. I used this .apk to check for BTLE support and it reports that it is enabled. Unfortunately I don't have any BTLE devices to test with it.
