Fixed it, including data
Checked after reboot.

Preparing update, including Marc's bootlogo. Haven't seen this yet. So you can post your likes on the I8000 forum within one hour.

ETA of test-update is about 45 minutes from now.
Not tested: GPS / Sensors
Not working: Bluetooth / Wifi

Think I experienced a SOD (phone's battery could also be empty, on AC now) please report.

If tested positive I will upload it to google project page tomorrow morning.
Untill then, please download test-update here (will provide link here when available)

Keyboardlight is low priority for me. As it is led, it will not consume much energy.

Oke update is ready. One finding: Everytime I am on Market (updated version) data on phone are killed.
Succesfully installed whatsapp from previous marketversion.

So I have 6 minutes of fun with it. This has to be fixed.

Download from here
Remember it is for testing.

Reboot twice after applying update.

As I stated, after marketupgrade, phone and data are killed after 6 minutes.

Thanks once again Erik for your dedication to this project.

Ive gotten your update, I installed it manually after a fresh manual install.

It boots and asks for the pin - it finds my providers apn (vodafone nl) automatically and loads it.
After which -approx 2/3 mins- the device freezes. I never even get to the 6 minute point

I have not started or updated market, so thats not whats causing the trouble.

Is there something I'm missing?

Greetings,
Inf3rn0


EDIT:

After some more fiddling around, after disabling the data connections in settings, phonepart is working great. Calls in & out, SMS in & out.
Only working for approx 20 mins now, without freezing, SOD or other nasties. Only no data-connections.

This is sooo sweeeeet

Works quite fast, didn't get the GPS to lock, otherwise non-functional items are as erikcas mentioned. Great work!

Now I have to begin intensive testing...


@inf3rn0: did you remember to change the startup.txt?

Did you change the startup.txt?
I didn't to be honest. Do I understand you that your phone and data keep working when you change startup.txt?

I have just made a fresh install and am going to test right now, together with you, guys!

I did a fresh install in MyStorage
I unpacked the original ext4.tar.gz
After that, I unpacked the latest frb2update.tar.gz
I used the "old" startup text file

Android does boot, but till now, I do not have network....Am I missing something?

reboot again. think I forgot to mention. Allways reboot after applying an update to make it functional

I did - I used the original startup.txt from the 'official' beta2 - so no, that's not the key.
I havent tried with your test-update-1 startup.txt, but from reading your post, you did

I know I didn't install the update by uploading it to my SD, I extracted it directly onto the ext4 partition:

# tar xvpf ./file -C /mnt/extern (p flag to keep file permissions)

Is the reboot needed after which is then the first boot?

The device froze after connecting 2/3g anyway, so I rebooted a couple of times...

Changed startup.txt but that only gave me twenty secs of glory

Will investigate further

Can I unpack the original ext4 and right after the frb2update, or do I have to boot in between?

I installed it as I read it the same way you did. manual install (untar ext4.tar.gz), and then untar frb2update, from Erik's last update.

this gave me the pin-screen on first boot - my providers APN was then selectable from the mobile networks settings page.

using the startup.txt from Erik's first test update gives a total phone/data connections for approx 6 mins, where the 'official i8000' startup.txt gives about 20 seconds.

however, disabling the data connections alltogether gives a good, stable release, with the phone working perfectly, still no hangs/crashes/SODs for over an hour!

[inf3rn0]

Sorry, double post

Edited by inf3rn0, 13 October 2011 - 05:45 AM.

[bnwgraaf]

Okay, I went to the networks setting page, but there are no providers visible...(I use KPN....)

Perhaps I again do a complete new install and try again...I really must get this working :-)
