ThaiDai Android Loader is a program for Windows Mobile 6.1.
--------------------------------------------------------------
A few words why I stopped development:
I had to stop this project for personal reasons (reason called baby).
And this was easy because nearly nobody (or only a few < 10) used my loader.
But more important for me now: I do not see any improvements on bugs or missing features for Blackstone with Android, there is no real kernel developer community anymore. Sound problems, BT, battery and performance aren't funny if you want to use the device. For playing with Android it was ok and I learned a lot. But not for every day use. So I switched back to WinMo 6.1.
And yesterday I bought a Samsung Galaxy Note. Android rules!
--------------------------------------------------------------
(6.5 builds will not work because there is an error in writing files with Windows Mobile 6.5 which will appear when linux makes a fsck. So no support for 6.5
You can use builds like Damn Small Topix (Rapidshare works) or other 6.1 builds)
If you run into problems and want help, please provide me with the generated log files in folder "thaidaiboot/Logs".
No Logs = No help!
With the loader you can start Android or you can install Android without doing the usual things: no copy, no edit, no changes etc.
The setup (a normal cab-file) prepares the necessary files on your sd card automatically.
With the program you select what you want to do (install, backup, restore, change device, choose Android Build, edit startup.txt and build.prop) and press "Boot". That's it.
Program is installed in autostart folder and will automatically boot into last chosen OS after a number of seconds (default 100 s, you can change of course). Stopping countdown is easy: klick somewhere or change a value).
FRX07.1 build is included as default. More builds to come from tomorrow.

-------------------- v2.3, 2011/09/18 --------------------
Changelog: including 2.0/2.1/2.2 changes, starting with 2.3 ;-)
---- 2.3 ----
Editor for build.prop for each build
Explanations for entries in build.prop (just started to gather them)
additional logging information in window mobile stage of installation
selected builds stay in original folder (so no system.tgz in folder thaidaiboot) and are used in rootfs.img for installing /system
---- 2.2 ----
Timer option for booting into Android automatically after n seconds is working correctly now.
I added the option to select Apps for installation - but I do not change the apps delivered with the specific build. So this part ist only for your own flavour of apps you want to add.
Next big change: Editor for startup.txt. You can easily change the commandline parameters (like display density or OC or ...). The set parameters cannot be changed until now (I didn't see the necessarity).
Resolution changed to 480x800 and using it. So from now concentrating on Blackstone. Other 480x800 devices may work but still no guarantee.
Resolved some stupid error with choosing Kernels (I just found this one today, nobody else did before)
---- 2.0/2.1 ----
Changed format for builds to tgz. Now it is easier for me to prepare cwm based builds
New rootfs.img for installation and updates with tgz files
Added download links for build thunderbolt
In every build I checked I have to make changes to build.prop: double entries, wrong entries, obsolete entries, stupid entries, optimized entries. That's why I started adding a build.prop-editor to my program.
As default I still use NeoFroyo. (without GAPPS).
Added GAPPS as Update-Package (selected on first start, please install)
New setup package and installation file for windows mobile
For all typical devices like Blackstone, Diamond, Raphael, Rhodium, Topaz
New user interface in windows program
autostart into Android after n seconds (changeable)
new UI (Hubs)
switched from comboboxes to lists for selection (better information on first look)
new ts-calibration for Topaz (thanks to Aggy in Neopeeks forum)
changing Hubs color possible (just for fun)
removed Apps from system.ext2 to folder APPS, so the different Builds will be much smaller and I have to install and upload Apps only one time
with apps in folder Apps the selection of Apps in loader program will soon be possible
Downloads:
One big cab file (about 95 MB) including everything.
Setup for ThaiDai Android Loader v2.3 with FRX07.1
Bugfix for Exe, please copy to your program files folder with thaidailoader, will give a complete new cab file next days.
Some more builds:
Setup for Build Froyo Blue
Prepare SD card:
You need 4 primary partitions on sd card (I use MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition)
All sizes here are only examples. Start with them, feel free to change.
All partitions have to be "primary" (ignore warning in Windows)
Partition 1: FAT32 (at least put folder "thaidaiboot" from zip here)
Partition 2: EXT2, about 150 MB (used for Android system partition)
Partition 3: EXT2, about 250 MB (or more for Android data partition)
Partition 4: EXT2, about 100 MB (for Android cache partition)
Size of partition 1: [Size of sd card] - [Size of 3 EXT2]
Installation:
Delete folder thaidaiboot on sd card and deinstall Loader program before using this setup (copy cab to sd card and start it).
- copy first big cab to sd card
- execute cab and start setup
- install on sd card (not on internal memory!)
- start "ThaiDai Android Loader" from start menu
- select your options and boot into Android
Adding new builds:
- copy cab for build to sd card
- execute cab and start setup
- install on sd card (not on internal memory!)
- start "ThaiDai Android Loader" from start menu (build will be copied - takes some time)
- select different build and install (Please start program one time before adding builds!)
Warning:
- Do not edit or change files in folder "thaidaiboot" on your own. Use the program.
- I hope it will install now in all language versions of Windows Mobile. I tested it only with an english installation. And maybe some foreign fonts (like Thai ;-)
aren't recognized by haret.exe or linux.

Typical Tasks:
For a new and clean installation (data is deleted) choose: "backupSystem", "backupData", "makeClean", "installSystem"
For an update of your system (no data changed) choose: "installSystem"
You can always choose to start with backups first and choose: "backupSystem", backupData"
Tasks with "fix..." are only necessary for updates I will post here
Select Device [Blackstone]
When you select another device, the program checks if there is a "startup.txt" in the folder of this device. If not found, nothing is changed. When a "startup.txt" is found it is copied to the folder "thaidaiboot" and you can start your device.
If a "ts-calibration" is found, it is copied. Please be careful: I do not know if all ts-calibration files are ok.

I don't have any problem with your thread, in fact, I'm glad you made it work
This is a communitary effort, and I'm only an average tester, so couldn't be more far from angry for this.
Thank you!
Hi ThaiDai,
Thanks for sharing your work.
Quick questions:
- have you modified the Roofts.img from FRX07 adding CMW? or modified the roofts from Neopeek CMW 1.8?
- What is the size of the cache partition you recomend as it is now? Neopeek CMW 1.8 recommends between 50-100mb.
I'll try as soon as I finish working.
Brgds
Downloaded the last version of rootfs.img from XDAndroid rootfs Build Service and used this as a starting point.
As far as I understand we do not need a cache for the Android build FRX07 anymore. But for CWM (and his logs) we need. So I will try later to flash the next version with a very small cache partition size.
But first I want to try and repair (if necessary) the scripts, so that other devices can be used (tried?) with this build.
Wait and see...
Update to Version 0.99 (Full Install and Update Only)
First post updated with new version 0.99.
Included download links for Full Install (complete npkboot folder) and Update only (zip-file inside npkboot).
And it should be possible to test this build on other devices now. Tried to restore the multi-device-usability. But no garanty.
Tried the previous version and worked nice and fast. (with cache partition of 50 Mb)
I'll download and try the new version now!
Please try if the Update Only works. I have to check myself later. Didn't do this right now. Thanks

Please give these credits to the developers of XDAndroid. I didn't do very much here, only made a CWM build from the original ext2 based build.
But I'm happy you can use Android on Blackstone with this one.
BTW, remember to update SU binary fron superuser app, and better if you don't reuse app data from previous builds. It will surely make your wifi fail, probably other things.
I've been using the XDAndroid FRX07 CWM by ThaiDai 0.99 build from last nigth, and so far so good.
Performance is quite good, batery life acceptable, and the problems are the same as XDANDROID FRX07 running on the Sd (BT, audio stuttering and wifi disconnecting intermittent).
questions:
- have you tried to change the behaviour of the red button using spareparts? it didn't worked for me.
- have someone use the old fancy widget (the one HTC weather clock replica)? it does not work.
Sorry if this question sounds stupid. I already tried to read the info in neopeek but still don't fully understand it, so anybody that is willing to explain to me, thanks!
I have been using the FRX07 and the previous version of XDAndroid in the normal build (one folder in the SD Card). What is the benefit and the difference of running it in this CWM way? Is it better performance, better battery life, or better management?

Some have claimed better performance, but in my testing it's actually worse.
I guess one benefit with having a dedicated data partition is USB mass storage (should) work properly. Other than that it's a lot of work for very little reward - perhaps if you jump builds a lot, CWM has a nifty backup/restore feature built-in to it...

I was referring to a problem posted above, sorry. The thing is I got some nasty problems (in fact had to reinstall again) because I tried to restore some data+apps with TB and it ruined wifi.
Hi Eodun, what do you think the benefits of the CWM build of FRX07?
Its really faster, better battery life, etc? Can you give some insight?

Android on your Windows Mobile HTC Device...
Supports Blackstone, Diamond, Diamond 500, Fuze, Raphael, Raphael 800, Rhodium, Tilt 2 & Topaz
This thread is dedicated to FroYo, and NOT Eclair releases!
First things first, this post is PURELY an instruction guide for noobies that aims to reflect the latest status and downloads (give or take a day).
I am not an Android developer, I do not create any of this software... this is done by far more talented people than I. This thread is purely to collate the latest info for Android on Windows Mobile HTC devices and make deploying Android on your device as simple as possible.
If you have new information that should be added to the guide (and is relevant for ALL folks) then feel free to add to the thread and I'll update the OP frequently.
These opening few posts should have ALL the latest info you need to get started (no need to trawl through the threads).
The only time you 'might' need to look in the thread is for 'breaking news' info that is no more than a day old...i.e. The Opening Post is the place!
Credits: There are too many to mention, and many are unknown, but basically the guys poring Android to our devices should be thanked, along with all those making the effort to help others test, document, or use their work (along with those who provide answers to the same questions, time and time again). These are the guys who deserve the credit. From memory...

What's New?
Latest Update: 03 Sep 2010 (V1.6)
InitRD - 20100813-b11116a
Rootfs - 20100828-c29a486
System - XDAndroid 2.2.AOSP.3.9.10.RC.2.2
Kernel - 20100830_01302 (no debugging)
Headset support - Credits to Oliwe
3D support for Blackstone/Diamond/Raphael (Rhodium/Topaz have no 3D)- Credits to Oliwe
Gallery working - Credits to Oliwe
Touchscreen Calibration is back! During first clean install, touch each of the five calibration points CAREFULLY to calibrate your screen before installation completes. Plus, general touchscreen fixes and power off support - Credits to Oliwe
Back to basics System... stock Android system.
Takes about 5 mins usage before the system starts to speed up, so expect it to be a little sluggish for the first 5 mins.
None 3D devices may not show boot screen, so please be patient during install (screen will show black)
I'd advise that once installed, you also launch SpareParts, and configure the window animations etc to 'fast'
There is a chance that after installation, some Startup.txt settings MAY be incorrect for your device. If you discover any mistake, PLEASE let me know, I will correct asap. I need your help on this guys.
How To Install (CAB Version)
Step 1 - Prepare your SD Card
Find a nice clean SD card to load Android on.
You can either format your card to get it entirely clean, or you can leave all the files you may already have on there.
*Warning* - If you have valuable data on your card, back it up. Android is usually safe, but if you can't afford to lose the data on your card, don't risk it!
Some cards have difficulty working, there is a POSSIBILITY this is due to the formatting of the card. If in doubt, format to FAT32, not FAT16
Step 2 - Download and install the CAB
Download and install the following 'full package' cab (a collection of ALL the files you'll need to run Android on your device) by clicking the XDAndroid Cab button below.
You MUST install on the Storage Card. The cab file will take a couple of minutes to install Android. Please be patient.
For those that are interested the cab files does the following:
- Installs Android in the root of the SD Card
- Deploys the correct Startup.txt for the device (the user can choose their device type)
- Adds a high res icon for Android in the root of the SD Card
- Installs a shortcut in Program Files named "Android" (launches Haret.exe)
- Installs the high res icon in the registry for WM6.5 users
Step 3 - Run Android
Android is now installed... So launch 'Android' from your Program Files menu in WinMo. Your phone should reboot into Android with 2 quick vibrations.
Have patience... the first time you do this can take a LONG time (3 mins or more). During the first boot on SOME devices, you will be asked to calibrate the screen. This is very similar to Windows Mobile screen calibration (except it's in text mode).
The reason the first boot takes longer is that Android is 'preparing' your device for the first time.
How To Install (ZIP Version)
Step 1 - Prepare your SD Card
Find a nice clean SD card to load Android on.
You can either format your card to get it entirely clean, or you can leave all the files you may already have on there.
*Warning* - If you have valuable data on your card, back it up. Android is usually safe, but if you can't afford to lose the data on your card, don't risk it!
Some cards have difficulty working, there is a POSSIBILITY this is due to the formatting of the card. If in doubt, format to FAT32, not FAT16
Step 2 - Download and extract the ZIP
Download and install the following 'full package' zip(a collection of ALL the files you'll need to run Android on your device) by clicking the XDAndroid zip button below.
You MUST unzip to the ROOT of the Storage Card. The zip file will take a short while to extract. Please be patient.
Once you've extracted the zip:
- Click Auto-Setup.exe to configure XDAndroid for your particular device
Step 3 - Run Android
Android is now installed... So launch 'Android' from your Program Files menu in WinMo. Your phone should reboot into Android with 2 quick vibrations.
Have patience... the first time you do this can take a LONG time (3 mins or more). During the first boot on SOME devices, you will be asked to calibrate the screen. This is very similar to Windows Mobile screen calibration (except it's in text mode).
The reason the first boot takes longer is that Android is 'preparing' your device for the first time.
If you want to exit Android and go back to Windows Mobile, then you need to shut down / reboot. To do so with the latest Android releases, hold down the 'end call' button until you see a menu appear.
If this fails to work, then the only option is remove the battery or press the reset button.
Known Issues
Many things are still not working properly, and the developers are fully aware of 99% of them.
SDCard - Most SDCards are working, but if you the 'waiting for SDCard' message, you should try one of these fixes (and please let us know if it works)
Fix 1: Format your card with this tool http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/
Fix 2: Edit your startup.txt file and add these entries to your cmdline:
set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmts_calib=0x395.0x3c9.0x79.0x77 clock-7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=-2,-1,3
msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave"
Fix 3: Tell your wife / girlfriend that you are about to make some modifications to her phone... change the ringtone and steal her old Class 2 SD Card to use with Android. She will never discover what you have done, and if she does, you'll be able to use Android to send texts to your former girlfriends ;-)
SDCard - A few users have claimed to have had trouble using their SD Cards after installing XDAndroid. Some of those have reformatted the SD Card, and it worked, some couldn't recover it. This is a minority of users, but be warned.
Camera - Not working
GPS - working
Battery Status - Highly problematic for most users (don't trust the capacity Android tells you, it's simply up and down a lot, and highly inaccurate)
WiFi - Working for most people, suspected to cause slight heat, definitely drains the battery faster than WinMo.
Audio - Speaker working for most people, microphone can have issues
Deep Sleep - Working for most people, but can have issues waking up (sometimes, it will not wake up)
GPRS - Working
3G - Working for most
PIN Code - Unknown
GSensor - Working (Screen only handles 0 and 270 degrees)
Bluetooth - Experimentally working (don't expect too much, but it's working for a number of users)
OpenGL ES - 'should' be working but only for Blackstone... more to follow soon
USB - Supported, but will NOT operate in mass storage mode. You can charge via USB and you can debug, but forget accessing your files by it.
Headphone Socket - Semi working (see FAQ for details on how to make it work)
Application Errors: It's very common to see 'Application (xxxxxx) is not responding: Force Close or Wait'. Click wait. I do not know the precise reason for this, but from what I can gather, it COULD be related to the slow speed of the SD Card causing the app response times to JUST be a little too slow for Android's liking, thus causing the message. This seems to happen more after bootup or wakeup when the device is busy doing stuff in the background.
Cannot choose ringtones: This is believed to be caused by the media scanner failing (due to discovering some filenames with none English characters). The best option of all is to use a CLEAN SD Card. But, if you insist on hosting other files on the same SD Card, you MUST make sure they have English character filenames.

Zip now available
Cab will be here in the next hour... but...
This is major move from Eclair to FroYo, and it's slightly slower than the Eclair release (so far).
This is normal though, since many of the Eclair release issues where ironed out, but with FroYo we take a small step backwards before we can progress again...
This release is VERY untested... I used it for 30 mins on a Blackstone only... no other devices tested yet
There is newer system version

Many thanks
looks like just an update from 2.1 to 2.2 - no bug-fixes or new working features, right?
downloading now to have a play
OMFG!! YES!!
android 2.2 has calendar sync to exchange (2007) natively!. this release has hammered yet another nail into WM coffin!
also it looks like my 2.1 install was broken - seems noticably faster and touchscreen seems to be working a bit more predicably.
sorry but where is the file.
:-D First post, Step 2 -> Biiig black button
sorry being a noob, all done and running.

No it does not have Sense. Why would you want it?
You can get virtually all the same widgets from other sources. Sense is a massive resource drain (esp on XDAndroid), and on non 3D supported hardware
If you want the flipclock, you can get it from multiple places, the wallpaper, the wallpaper, and similar widgets are all floating around too.

Welcome to the "Energy" ROM thread !
This development thread is for my "Energy" custom firmware series for the HTC HD2 !
I build my ROMs with four main goals.
Eye candy ( I want my ROM to look great and for it to all flow together nicely)
Speed !!!
Smoothness, consistency and good aesthetics
Stability through private beta testing before public release
I preconfigure a lot of things in my ROM, because when I flash it on my phone, I want it ready to go. So, the ringtone, sms/email and other notifications to already be set. Doing it this way, makes for a nice ROM that's ready out of the box.
ROM Features
Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread)
Rosie transparency... modded
Blue overscroll
Blue highlights instead of green
Deodexed, zipaligned, tweaked
Extra Quick Settings
Improved SD card read ahead
Busybox + runparts, TitaniumBackup
Zipaligned
Zipaligns apk's at boot
A few HTC Apps removed, like HTC Navigation and some widgets
A lot of junk removed
clK and MAGLDR supported in ROM ZIP file
TMOUS or EU model supported in ROM ZIP file
Updated hosts file for ad removal
RCMix Tweaks built in!
Dr Dre beats support as well as the normal Dolby, SRS and EQ support !
A lot more stuff... check the changelog below
Fast... Stable.. and GREAT battery life
Please visit this thread for all your questions and answers about this ROM, especially if you can't post here yet!
Please setup a 380MB system partition to use this ROM, on TMOUS handsets.
If you have an EU HD2 (not Tmobile) have a 1Gb ext(2 or 3) partition ready on your SD card and choose the "EU" option when prompted during installation.

Flashing instructions
Advanced Users:
For the SDEXT version, you need a CWM layout of 5/200/5. If your phone doesn't boot, try a higher than 200 partition.
For the regular version, you need a system partition of 380 MBs.
Begginers:
Follow the instructions below to flash the ROM for the first time.. if you're coming from a Windows Mobile based HD2. It's recommend to have your SDCARD ready with my ROM loaded on it already.
1. Download and install MAGLOADER.
Download and unpack MAGLDR1.13 from (http://nrgz28.sylvester20007.com/HD2Tools/DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF.rar)
Once downloaded unpack the MAGLDR package with your favorite tool. WinRAR or 7zip recommended. Go to the folder where you unpacked the MAGLDR package and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe. Check the checkmarks and hit next to flash, just like you would flash a Windows Mobile ROM.
The phone will reboot and go to the multi colored bootloader screen. After the flash is complete it will reboot and go IN to the MAGLDR. You'll see a text menu with 12 options. Go to Option 5 (USB Flasher) and hit the Green Send key on your device. It will put MAGLDR in flasher mode and wait for a USB connection. Let it sit on this screen for now...
2. Setup system partition and install Clockworkmod recovery
Download the HD2Toolkit. You can click here to get it > http://nrgz28.sylvester20007.com/HD2Tools/hd2_toolkit_setup.exe (original thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783 )
Run the installer and install it. Now, after you open the HD2 Android Nand Toolkit, it will look like the screenshot at the bottom of this post.
Now... if you have TMobile USA phone (with green/red buttons at the bottom) then choose a custom partition size and just click Repartition in the bottom left corner. After that.. input 380 for size.
If... you have a device with all white buttons at the bottom (an european/asian model) then choose Custom on the left hand side and input 200 in the box that pops up after you hit Partition.
Now you get a green "DFT" screen.
Hit Next until it asks you to put the phone in USB Flasher mode. The phone should already be in USB Flasher mode from step one. The progress bar will go back and forth while the phone is being setup. Hit Finish when it's done.
The phone will reboot on its own and go back to the main Magloader screen with all the options.
3. Flashing the Energy ROM
Now pick Option 8 and go to "AD Recovery". Magloader will load the ClockworkMod Recovery where you can flash your ROM. This is the place to go when flashing future ROM updates or "patches". To get to this screen after you load a ROM, you have to keep the Power key pressed down as you turn the phone on. You don't have to do that now, however.
Now I assume you have my ROM on the sdcard already. If not, take it out and transfer it through your computer or card reader.... and plug it back in to the phone.
If you have a TMobile USA phone, you can skip this section and go straight to installing the ROM below... If you have the euro/asian model continue to read.
Go to the Advanced menu and pick Partition SD Card. Pick a size of 1024M and let it do its thing. Make sure it doesn't error out. If it didn't, continue to flash the ROM below... Make sure to copy the ROM zip back to the SD card by using the "mount USB storage" feature of the recovery.
Go to "Install Zip from sdcard" in the menu options and hit the Send key. Then choose "choose zip from sdcard" using the volume keys on the side and hit the Send
key again. Pick my ROM from the list and hit the Send key again. Pick "No", hit Send. Now the ROM is flashing...
When it's done, hit the Back key. "Reboot system now" is selected. Just hit the Send key to reboot the phone and boot the ROM !
4. Booting up Android for the first time
The phone should now be rebooting and the Magloader screen will briefly show up....
Towards the bottom the words Go! GO! GO! will show and then you'll see the NRG logo which means the kernel is booting up. Wait a few minutes and the phone will
be ready to play with...
5. Enjoy your new operating system !

Downloading now but I'm wondering, are you copying android (haret etc) to device storage rather than SD - and if so, are we going to be able to copy/update subsequent droid builds or will any updated droid builds need to be built into a flashable rom by you to use this same method?

Well the way I got it now is... Haret and root files sytem files are IN the ROM. The system.ext2, data.img and rootfs.img still need to be on the card. So with future updates, you can just replace those three files. The kernel is IN the ROM, but it can easily be overwritable in \windows with a new kernel. Even a .cab can be developed to be installed by users. I plan on doing that in the future...
Or, you can install the minimal WM build I also uploaded (55 megs) and install all your android files to the storage card and run it that way
Great!
I´ll give it a try later.
Thanks
You seem to be liking this Desire ROM NRGZ28

So I noticed there wasnt any tutorial on how to install it and you just had to search all the posts in the froyo x thread to figure it out. Now I have done it this way.Im sure there are tons of other ways.But this one workes for me and I just want to share it. I will try to keep it up to date so everybody can install android on their blackstone.
All credits to Tiad8 and other developers this is not my build!

Chapters of this tutorial:
[1]Formatting SD card
[2]Installing Froyo X red
[3]Installing Camera
[4]Finishing up
Downloads
1 Froyo X Red http://www.multiupload.com/16UTFCYLTA
2 kernel+libs http://www.multiupload.com/YGVM8VELPV
3 Haret+Startup.txt-Ts-Calibration http://www.multiupload.com/33Z52W8L14
4 If having problems with booting android try this startup.txt
[1]Formatting SD card
Easy as pie.
put your memory card in a sd card reader (your blackstone will do fine) and plug it in your pc/laptop.
open My pc and look for your memory card and right click on it.
Click Format
http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/3646/16774455.png
Ok great Sd card is formatted and ready to go. no lets move on..
[2]Installing froyo X Red /B]
ok first things first download Froyo X Red and Haret+Startup.txt-Ts-Calibration.
Then unpack Froyo X Red to the root of your memory card(root means on your memory card not in an folder on your memory card)
Then open up Haret+Startup.txt-Ts-Calibration and copy all the files to the root of your memory card.
Now unmount your Blackstone or Sd card reader from your pc.Put the Sd card in your blackstone(if it isnt already there) navigate to your storage card and open the file Haret
Now it shoud just give you a bunch of text and a little linux penguin let it load for a while(note: It coud take some minutes so dont think it wont boot)
it shoud boot. now follow the set-up and sync your google account.then turn off your blackstone and reboot it.so it boots in windows mobile again.when its in windows mobile go to the next step!
[3]Installing Camera
so android working accordingly everything set up but still no camera..
its time to change that
download kernel+libs
simply unpack the zip to your memory card..
overwrite zImage
thats that your done. enjoy android with working camera!
[4]Finishing up
this isnt really a neccesary step but I do recommend it.
open up spare parts and set the Window animation and Transition animation to Fast
and your done! have fun with your brand new Android phone..
dont forget to check this thread for updates!
Ts-calib for Blackstone. Rmove extension and put it in your andboot folder.
You will also need the "lib_camera" folder in the root of your SD-Card for camera to function. This is missing in this ROM distribution, but you can find the link for it in the first post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883966
Is this FroyoX build of yours still based on the Huawei U8150 from Neopeek? Just wondering of curiosity.
Hello,
I just tried with the 3 different camera modules, and with and without oc.
I used calibration from this thread and also from an older install of mine.
Find attached my STARTUP.txt.
I always have the same result.
Haret Booting OK
Passing Boot animation OK
Unlock SIM card OK
Then during the setup process, after clicking on the droid, it freezes and the image stay put, I can not do anything but soft reset. It does it at different stages: Time setup, or google account setup, or location setup...
If there is a way I can give you more information about what's going on please ask.
Cheers,
ok for those who are having crashes from setup screen: THIS IS WHAT WORKED FOR ME ON MY BLACKSTONE AND MY WORK WITH OTHER DEVICES!!
OPTION (1)
1) WHEN YOU REACH SETUP SCREEN REMOVE SIM CARD ONLY.....NOT BATTERY!
2) NOW CARRY ON WITH SETUP SCREEN AND SKIP EVERYTHING IT MAY FREEZE FOR 5SEC OR SO JUST WAIT!
3) NOW YOUR AT HOME SCREEN NAVIGATE TO (SETTINGS, WIRELESS & NETWORKS, MOBILE NETWORKS, ACCESS POINT NAME.......CHOOSE YOUR PROVIDER!
4) NOW THAT YOU HAVE PROVIDER AND IT HAS A GREEN DOT TO THE RIGHT OF IT YOU NEED TO POWER OFF YOUR DEVICE!
5) REPLACE YOUR SIM CARD AND POWER UP IN WM AND THEN RUN HARET AND YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO WITH NO FREEZING IF YOU HAVE THE 3G ICON SHOW IN YOUR STATUS BAR AT THE TOP!!
OPTION (2)
THIS REQUIRES SPEED BUT WILL WORK BUT YOU HAVE TO BE FAST YOU MAY HAVE TO REBOOT LEAST 3 TIME BECAUSE IT MAY FREEZE!
BOOT HARET WHEN YOU REACH SETUP SCREEN THIS TIME LEAVE SIM CARD IN BUT TRY TO SKIP EVERYTHING AS QUICK AS U CAN, TO GET TO HOME SCREEN, IF YOU MANAGE TO GET TO HOME SCREEN THATS THE SETUP PROCESS DONE, IF YOUR PHONE FREEZES RESTART IT AGAIN YOU SHOULD BE AT HOME SCREEN THIS TIME, YOU NEED TO GO TO (SETTINGS, WIRELESS & NETWORKS, MOBILE NETWORKS, ACCESS POINT NAME.......CHOOSE YOUR PROVIDER THEN GO BACK 1 THEN GO TO NETWORK OPERATORS AND SELECT AUTOMATICALLY IT WILL SEARCH THEN AFTER 10 SECONDS FREEZE...........REBOOT AND YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO! (NOTE YOU SHOULD DO THIS QUICKLY FROM WHEN YOUR HOME SHOWS HOME SCREEN BECAUSE IT WILL FREEZE WITHIN 40 SECONDS)
i know it alot of messing around but its worth it,........if you want to try this build out because its fast fast fast!!!!!
hope it works for you all
These issues are been delt with ive been told in the nxt update............no camera working at the moment
Thank you, that helped.
Now testing other functionalities.
I changed end button mapping to "back home" as it seems it had same mapping as power button initialiy. I also put animations and transitions to fast.
I synchronized my google account and gmail/contacts/agenda are fine.
I'll keep you up to date. But, so far, this is definitely the best versions I ever tested. It is amazingly fast!
This is awesome work!
UPDATE1:
- Wifi : not OK.
This is a shame because as I do not have data plan, it means I can not download apps from the market without wifi, and I would really like to download some apps. I would really appreciate a fix!
- Gallery: OK
- SMS receive and send: OK
- Camera: Not OK
- Music Player: Partially OK because there audio stuttering (note: is this applicable to this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905085&page=4)
Update2:
-Wifi is OK (just has to change zImage and modules)
- Market: OK (download apps included)
Update3:
- Screen orientation OK
- Talk OK
So far no freeze or sluggishness. Amazingly fast.
Everything works perfect! Even the live wallpapers are working! Thanks to the developers...
Wow! Can confirm this is a lightning fast version!
Especially WIFI I've never seen so fast on FROYO build, could not believe my eyes, much appreciated!
(note: for some reason added modules and zkernel could not get WIFI to work, tried several things, but in the end changed to latest kernel (1253) and got amazing results!)
Camera would be nice, could you also check if "sound stuttering" is fixed in next build?
(as you probably already know, VirusCrazy managed to disable battery polling during sound playback in test kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883966)
Final note: keymapping is still wrong for blackstone, power button can be mapped to home, with long press to latest programs, see also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936601
All in all, great start, can't wait to see next steps!
Cheers,

[DL Desire v4.31.44.12][Sense RE-Engineering] Highlights
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Sense Re-Engineering
Recompiled all the apps and framework for lowest RAM consuming and highest performance
2. Merged DesireZ and DesireHD
mixed the advantage features from both DesireZ and DesireHD into one build.
3. RAM fs
after testing for a week, come into one best way to utilize the RAMfs, by default, one 16M RAMfs will be created for app and market cache.
once set to ram_data=1, additional 1 RAMfs will be created for most accessed dalvik cache.
4. totally re-write the SuperInit
fixed a lot of bugs inside and optimize it again, once set ram_data=1, the boot time should be within 1min, in next version, the boot time will be reduced again.
5. added a lot of usable functions into SuperInit
- extend the backup/restore to be able to backup &restore to different build.s
- added more repair_mode, to be able to repair the nand system and reset the system.
6. use own kernel
freak kernel v1.2 to perfect fit our builds. Source: http://www.linux4freak.com/gitweb
hence, 2 parameters were added to best control the kernel
vdd_mode= xxx //for under/over volting cpu, [-150,-125,-100,-75,-50,-25,+25,+50]
sched_mode= xxx // "cfq" or "bfq"
And of course, thanks for people who ever helped me, encouraged me, donated to me!!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
New features for superinit v4.4
Buildin with IMG/EXT4/RAM support
--- by default will create a 16M RAMfs and use it as app_cache and cache.
--- once set the ram_data=1, will move the dalvik-cache of framwork into RAM
--- to roll back to normal status, use the ram_data=11
-- Optimize the nand_data, which will also be able to move the dalvik-cache of framwork into Nand.
-- add new backup_img=2 to back apps from data, which is used for changing the build, the backup_img=1 will back up the whole data, once restore to a new base, will incur the UID inconsistent issue. should use restore_img=2 to restore.
-- add more function for repair_mode
-- repair_mode=1 will rescue the data partition.
-- repair_mode=2 can use the MAGLDR load system to repair the Nand system and mount the Nand system to /mnt/rescue
-- repair_mode=3 will reset the system, all the modified app, framework, lib, fonts that caused the issue will be removed, system will be reset to the origin without losing data and settings.
-- Auto detect the phone modal(EU or TMOUS)
--- for EU modal, will auto enable the data.img if the 2nd partition can not be found.
--- for TMOUS, if doesn't have 2nd partition and set the data_img=1, will auto bypass all the relative code to reduce the boot time.
-- Auto detect the boot mode (SD/MAGLDR/NAND)
--- auto select the best configuration for each boot mode
-- Auto partitioning the SDCard if set the format_ext4=9
-- Fixed a lot of bugs in previous version.
-- to best control kernel, added
vdd_mode= xxx //for under/over volting cpu, [-150,-125,-100,-75,-50,-25,+25,+50]

--b. For SD, extract the Update_DL folder to the root of your sdcard, and copy the zImage file from /Update_DL/update/kernel_files to Desire_DL, boot.
--c. You can also use the same kernel package, but replace the kernel file with your own under /Update_DL/update/kernel_files. (for SD/Magldr version, the zImage file should be put under Desire_DL)
2. for system upgrade or bugfix, extract the Update_DL folder from a update package to the root of your sdcard, reboot.
3. if you intend to replace any file from the system, use rootexplorer to delete the target file first, then put the file to /Update_DL/root/system..., e.g, if you want to change the framework.res, just delete the origin file from /system/framework, then, put your own file under /Update_DL/root/system/framework, boot.

Changelog+features
Code:
[B][SIZE=3]v1.4.45.14 ARA[/SIZE][/B]
-- Battery percentage and more.
-- dynamic RAM (big thanks freak and Jim)
-- more optimization.
[SIZE=3][B]Features:[B][SIZE=3]v1.4.45.14 ARA[/SIZE][/B][/B]
[/SIZE]use a new RAM optimization method which is based on Jim's idea,
and freak successfully made it work.
This method uses another file system on top of squashFS to gain dynamic ram cache to improve the performance,
which is totally different with the previous ram_data mode 1,
that uses a static RAM allocation.

cautation :
1. this dynamic RAM build can only work on freak kernel v1.3d or later.
2. can not set ram_data=1 which will worsen the overall performance.
3. normally, the build can work out of the box without any config.
Thanks and ragards

no, no, it's just for us to test the new page, after finish, I will copy this to my thread.
Can I post my ideas here in this thread?
few notes for the first post.
what it's confusing it's the fact that you keep fixes and notes for older version..
well, for me, those are completely useless
new releases are there for solving bugs and problems of the old version
got a problem with 3.x?? update to 4.x. job done.
also some people could install old fixes them on the newer version, causing only problems
same story for the videos: they were great to show the build.
but as 4.x introduces a lots of improvements, the videos may not reflect the reality
WIP for second post:
now I need to do the links

Cheers and TIA!

Greetings to all!
At attempt to change framework has caught cyclic reboot for ever.
Did all as it is recommended: has removed through rootexplorer framework.apk and has tried to insert new through Update_DL.
Has not worked. For me.

I am still using Legendary HTC HD2 in 2022. It was too hard to find all tools, utilites, ROMs, Recoveries etc... because of dead links, closed forums (Tytungs for example) etc... Also most of tools didnt work on Windows 10 and it was hard to run them on VM due USB/driver linking issues beetween main OS and VM. Finally I found solutions for all these problems and want to share these solutions with community.
I made 5 exe files to run Android 2.3.7 on Nand with Magldr and CWM recovery on HTC HD2.
- 1st; run "hd2driverinstaller.exe" both your Windows10/11 PC and VM Windows XP
- 2nd; run "HSPL.exe" on VM Windows XP to bypass SPL security mechanism
- 3rd; run "task29.exe" on VM Windows XP to erase NAND
- 4th; run "magldrinstaller.exe" on VM Windows XP to install aMagldr 1.13.08
- 5th; run "magldrwizard" on VM Windows XP to install Android and CWM on NAND
All tools except HSPL.exe modified or rewrited by me. Android ROM is based on Tytung's latest Gingerbread 2.3.7 - 3.3a. But heavily modified for remove not working apps etc. It has only 111 MB system partition size. If anyone wants its aroma flashable zip, I can upload it too.

The fact is I eventually found back my HD2s (one working great on Win Mobile, another one not working but used to work under Android and 2 others dead I bought years ago for parts and batteries) two days ago so I will try and report
I was thinking of doing that but found no time to do so. So thanks in advance !
It will be fun to try to use the legendary HD2 in 2022
BTW what is the size of the SD card you use ?

I believe I've done that. I can get activesync to connect up and sync.
Have tried putting the HD2 into bootloader and waiting for serial to become usb...
V1 of hspl says it's working and not to disconnect (then just sits doing nothing) but all other versions time out.
I'm wondering if these HD2s I have may have already been unlocked...
Finally got it working on one HD2, thanks.
Other seems bricked.

I'm looking for a ROM that connects to Wi-Fi and I can install and run Tasker on. Unfortunately, 2.3.7 won't log in to Google or run Google Play...
I've found some ICS ROMs that should enable logging into Google, but Wi-Fi won't connect.
Is there a reason you stick with 2.3.7?

I haven't been able to, at least not via Google Play Store (as I cannot install it nor log into my Google account on this ROM, nor via extracting the apk from my Android 12.1 phone and install on the HD2 due to the Android version being lower.
Tasker does allow you to download and buy a separate version for Gingerbread, but I may as well give up on the HD2 and buy another phone that will work with Google Play.
Am I missing a way to get it on and working?
u can find gingerbread compatible tasker's apk from internet, sir
I know, but I am not going to use an unofficial version of Tasker (would you trust something so powerful with your data from an unofficial source), and I am not going to buy a second version of Tasker given I have already bought it.
So I either find a later version of Android that connects to wifi, or give up completely and go with another phone.
Hey everyone. I would like to participate in this kind of topic, so I have compiled LineageOS 11 (basically CM11 with security updates up to February 2019) with 3.0 kernel for our device. But the zip file looks pretty raw compared to tytung's CM11 one. It needs some adaptation to the device, especially in part of bootloaders compatibility and ability to install using Data-on-EXT and NativeSD methods. And also the ROM needs to be tested after all these changes. I'll try to merge AROMA installer from tytung's ROM, but if you can help me in some way, it will be really appreciated, because there's no clean CM11 after all on our device. I'm going to upload the zip later to AFH and the edited device tree alongside with forked but unchanged kernel to my GitHub profile.
I'm pretty new to this topic, here's my thread
