I think it DOES make a difference which order you do the updates, because adding the Zimage included in the 3G updates means the phone won't wake up from "Sleeping" anymore. at least, that's the case with me.

absolutely!
not every kernel (zImage) will load the modules (driver) because modules & kernel should be compiled against the same source.
if you have a never kernel it can happen that the (older) modules will not be able to get loaded - then you are missing hardware features ... missing hardwarefetures can end up in various errors.

the latest (o2b)update (31/01/20011) comes with kernel & modules ... this should work.
my keyboard/vib kernel comes also with modules ... should work also fine together ... but ... the kernel from the (o2b)update will not load the modules from my kernel ... keyboard will mess up and vibration will not work again.
and my kernel will not load the modules of the (o2b)update also.
thats linux   changing kernel-version needs also changing modules to same version - specialy if you are running on kernels which are still under development

Hallo,

Ik heb geprobeerd via deze tutorial Android op mijn telefoon te zetten.
En alles gaat goed, totdat ik de 2e keer die HARET file open (ja goeie mapje)
en dan zegt hij op het einde: kernel panic - not syncing: no init found. Try passing init = option to kernel.

maar zo blijft hij hangen en hij start ook niet opnieuw op of iets.
dus wat heb ik fout gedaan of hoe los ik dit op?
groetjes

Er vanuitgaand dat je het niet bij één poging hebt gehouden. Een stap gemist of verkeerd uitgevoerd.
Benoem liever je stappen, dan zeggen: ik heb 't uitgevoerd volgens tutorial!
Overigens is 't de bedoeling dat mensen hier Engels typen.

hi ,

on beta one i had troubles with market. after a clean install it worked again.

on beta 2 market again no downloads. so i thought lets reinstall. well it didn't help at all.

so i did this

in ubuntu i opened system/apps from (beta1) ext2.tar.gz. there i took    gtalk.apk ,     gtalkservice.apk  ,    market updater.apk      and placed it on desktop ubuntu.
i opened disk/system/apps. there i replaced the files that i just took from ext2.tar.  had to change the properties from the files. to read and write in order to make it happen. then i disconnected the phone. and started android.

then i noticed that gtalk is in the menu ( didn't have that or did not work) i opened gtalk and login.
and opened market and

i now can dowload.

hope this will work for more people because i know there are allot who wants it to work.

You deleted the hidden partition on my storage? That's not in my guide?

It stands for "Read the fine FAQ". He actually meant that if you read the first posts you would know that WiFi works only on i8000 and not on b7610.

Hi Tjeerdos,
did you modify something? Or does it work out of the box?

[sakisds]

About formating the sd card in Windows, ErnstJanF's guide works great but if you don't want to run through the command line you can use this application. No install required, extract, run as admin, select disk and press Erase. This will overwrite the partition table with 0s so all partitions get deleted. Make sure you use it on the right disk letter though.

If you get an error about access, make sure you ran it as admin and remove/replug your sd card.


Disclaimer: I tried this myself and it worked, but I don't assume responsibility if something goes wrong.

hello there,

i am navigating around the forum for collecting info before installing something.

I saw that the only problem with android is something about the 3G connection, but the keymapping is a problem too right?
as i saw some posts about people complaining about the strange keymappings, i was wondering what the current mapping is with the latest updates:P

maybe a good thing to place on the first post?
