Hello,
sadly i couldn't find a How-To.
So how to get Android on my SD Card without formatting any Part using Haret.
Please Help, and excuse me, if this topic is wrong here or I'm just unable to use the Search.
hey
i dont know how your english knowledge is but ill just write everything in english and otherwise just message me.
so you need to go to http://androidonhtc.com and then there select kaiser
and then you need to download the basefiles
that is haret
http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2010-02-20/haretinstall.zip/download
and the latest kernel here:
http://vogue-android.googlecode.com/files/basefiles-20091116.zip
and then you need to find an android version with SQSH support.
the donut here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619980
has that for example.
and then just run Haret and follow the installer.
I cannot recommend this method ebcause it is old and actually nobody is working on improving that.
I switched to NAND and its really good. You will never miss WiMo.
Or even the ext2 versions are faster and better (updated)
so just think about it if you really need WiMo anymore.

Hi to all, i finished to edit atools:
Changelog:
Use the same selector for fstab and bse
added lcd density
correct partition resize for polaris and kaiser
Fix error in mapping
Now i need someone to test it.
You can find the latest version on git
I have also bad news. My friends gave me a present for my graduation: an Iphone 4, so i'll slow down a lot my android develop.
Thanks for all you do! I'm about to take it for a test run now.
I say sell the iphone and get an EVO!
I will test it in a few days when i have my 8Gb Class 10 SD-Card. But I must wait a few days.

wow, that is bad news (for us) but good news on the graduation
so you have some choices, turn off your brain and just use the iphone, tear it apart and dual boot with android, sell it and buy something interesting.
keep us posted.......
in the mean time i will also be trying latest atools.
I haven't a shudown script for my brain so i keep working on android (but slowly).
i wait for news of new atools
Well, thanks for all the help! Maybe you can get android running on the Iphone 4 better lol.

thanks for everything man, it is nice not having to have the androidonHTC phone as your primary, it should be easy for you to be able to continue development when you get time even with the iphone because unlike us vogue users you atleast have wifi to be able to test with along with being able to swap your sim.
i will be hitting the thank you button as soon as i finish posting this reply (everyone should)

Noooo...another dev leaving!! You will be missed. BTW, you need to teach me how to edit init.lzma
sure:
checkout this git://androidhtc.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/androidhtc/bootenv
then edit the initrd/init
from linux or mac do:
Code:
sudo sh buildInitrd
and you have the new initrd.gz and .lzma
I am really sorry to hear that You made a pretty good job here. I wish I could do the same... but I am far not as good as you are...
Thanx for what you did.

I don't wich to say that i know you, because i don't. But from your job here, from what i've seen you do here... you'll be back. iOs will sufocate you...
Thanks for aTools. I've used it, but didn't change partitions. Will try next time.
@ l1qu1d
Congrats 4 ur graduation... party time! so ur turning to the dark side of the force with ur iphone 4?
I updated my kaiser to the latest kernel (VOGUIMG-320-FROYO-11-29-10.NBH) and used this version of atools to correct the kernel for kaiser,froyo & resolution, and now i can't select my data partition type anymore in the Android Installer bootloader. I can only select the type of the SYS. (replimenu 0.9)
Update: When i use version 1.0.4 of atools, my data selection is back. Tried 3 times with 1.1.0...
Also the AUTO screen detection doesn't work in version 1.0.4. (my screen type = 1 and i think it used 2) Could not see if this is fixed in 1.0.5.
Hi,
I also used 1.1.0 yesterday with my kaiser and couldn´t find the data partition (I have it on the p3 on the sd card
p1 = FAT32
p2 = swap
p3 = ext2 (where I have my data)
setting it to p3 didn´t seem to work
In the end I had to reinstall the android not so super froyo tar ball as well after putting the kernel (which I had planned to eventually do anyways to bring it to RLS18)
test results
nice work, here are my findings (pola100, kernel 2.6.25):
i needed to add a cast (also in previous versions) to be able to create partitions:
Code:
870 end = str([COLOR="Red"]int([/COLOR]start[COLOR="Red"])[/COLOR]+int(self.listofdata[i+1][2]))
but partitioning still fails on boot, obviously the total size is slightly smaller than the number defined in atools. i suggest getting the total size from parted using sed instead of rigid numbers - but then one must define which partition's size shall get adapted if necessary. e.g. user interface in atools:
8gb sd-card,
1st partition 4gb fat32 (*),
2nd partition 3.5gb ext2
3rd partition 0.5gb swap
*: will be decreased if necessary (e.g. if true total size is 7.98gb instead of 8gb)
quick and dirty alternative: allow manually entered 'total size' instead of dropdown selection.
further, formatting fails because the new version uses /dev/block/mtdblockx instead of /dev/mtd/mtdx.
hope this helps!

It's totally unuseful because the partion size can't be read on the host and also in the generated code (install-seq.sh) there isn't the the highest limit in number but -0 so parted autocheck that number.

it's a know bug and it will be corrected in next release.
Just downloaded a regular kernel, Set Screen DPI to 160, 320x428, Panel type 1 and Keyboard type normal. Created a custom keymap with it as androidupdate.tar. Installed new kernel, and updated, wiped dalvik cache and my kaiser's keyboard is completely non-responsive. I double checked the kernel again with Atools and still the same :|
Just wanted a 2.6.32 for testing out Eclair and all of em were tick marked for Froyo
Still fails to install to the nand on my Vogue..
Thanks for the great software.
What is a good setting for a 1350 mah battery for Kaiser running Froyo from Haret? There are a few choices, which is most accurate?
Thanks again!

Hi guys, I am writing to ask you this question because every time I see a new custom rom in the development section I always wonder: "How do they create or improve a rom and what are the languages that you need to know?". I know that may seem like a stupid question but I can not find a starting point.
translated from Italian to English with google translator, if I made some mistakes in the writing I apologize in advance.
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html is a good starting point. You could then add stuff from other ROM devs.
You should also familiarize yourself with the concept of searching. That's definitely a requirement.
The guide says: It is possible to build Also Android in a virtual machine. If you are running Linux in a virtual machine, you will need at least 16GB of RAM / swap and 30GB or more of disk space in order to build the Android tree.
I have a laptop Acer Aspire5750G with Windows8, has only 4GB of RAM, a processor IntelCorei7-2630QM, HDD 750GB and a GPU Nvidia GT540M. If I put ubuntu 10.04 in dual boot just the ram?
it says 16GB of ram or swap space.....

Hello there.
I just want to share some useful information about OTG for E9+ in case someone is not sure if there is one as is not listed in sites like gsmarena.
I have been able to mount numerous usb mouses, usb keyboards (with or without back light), and the most important - flash drives. As long as they are formatted in FAT32 file system. NTFS is not recognized.
Also although the build in file manager was successful in all operations with flash drives (read, write, copy, delete and so on) other managers like ES file manager were wanting root and stuff. So I ditched them in favor of the build in one.
Here is some info about my device:
Android version - 5.0.2
HTC sense 7.0
Software number - 1.45.401.2
Kernel version - 3.10.61
Baseband version - 1.1506V24P22T34.2103.0805_AD5W
Build number 1.45.401.2 CL664129
The device is not rooted.
If I was to mark an disadvantage to this model is only the long (4hours from 0-100%) charging time. But for me is not really a problem.
p.s. English is not my native language so forgive me for any mistakes.
