Guest hungary Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 and ensure you don't login to google or any other services, or view any websites or do searches/etc that you don't want other people to see. A lot of things are cached in android as you no doubt are well aware. All previous versions of Android can live quite happily with a completely empty 'data' and 'cache' partition (everything under /cache and /data) (it'll populate them on bootup). I'd be suprised if 2.2 doesn't act in the same way. Thanks for the warning guys :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Epic-Emodude Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 What? You have a phone which you never intend to use as... a phone? Or maybe your one of these people that complains that their contract only allows 1,000 free texts per month? Being 15 years old and not having many friends (you might be able to see why) i only text people and when I went to phone people im usually at home so I don't really use my phone for calls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tom G Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 Well that was a much bigger response than I expected. Thank you to everyone that has taken a look and provided some feedback. I haven't spent any time on this recently, so any bugs that I mentioned 1-2 weeks ago are still there. I flashed the 2.2 (0.20) rom: Its very nice! Great work Tom G! Working: Vibrate 2G Network USB Apps Brightness GPS Widgets Browser SD Card Broken: Rotate Camera LEDs 3G Audio Wi-Fi Live Wallpaper 54.21 MB free internal storage available! Edit: Phone calls working, but the other dont hear anything (because the microphone dont work). SMS works like charm smile.gif No more sms-issue, like 2.1 T-Mobile Rom. Its faster after 1 hour running (i think system odexing or caching something) Scrolling much faster, than original 2.1 Rom. (but not faster than LauncherPro) Ram Usage: Avail: 12MB+0.00B in 12 Other: 21MB in 3 Edit2: SD Card Fixed (Unmount and format with phone) Are you sure GPS works? It wouldn't work for me. I am using the 1.5 firmware so it is interesting to see what works on the 2.1 firmware. Phone calls working, but the other dont hear anything (because the microphone dont work). SMS works like charm :) No more sms-issue, like 2.1 T-Mobile Rom. Its faster after 1 hour running (i think system odexing or caching something) Scrolling much faster, than original 2.1 Rom. (but not faster than LauncherPro) (Sorry for my bad english, i hope you understand my words) odexing will come much later and should make it a bit quicker and maybe improve memory usage. There is a lot of prelinking stuff to fix as well which might have a small impact on memory usage. These are very low priority tasks for now. I think, Tom G is very close to the final working and stable 2.2 FroYo for Pulse :D The lack of audio is a major issue and I have been stuck on that for a while now. Everything else I have an idea how to fix or can live without, but audio really is a huge problem. I never tried it, but i think, its work. @ Tom G: Whats the problem with SD card mounting? I think, the Cam is working, if we have the SD. The sdcard works, but it always tries to mount the last partition instead of the first. If there is only one partition on the sd it works fine, if the last partition is ext2/3 it will fail. It is a minor problem that I haven't looked into yet, I don't expect fixing it to be difficult. The camera is not working. Android fails to build without camera support, so I am currently building it with the stub driver. This emulates a camera, but it is not actually driving the hardware. While you will see camera support you will never get a picture out of it with the current setup. Can you create a rom with the changes you've made (either a flashable or a copy of you nandroid backup if you can remove all your personal information) Thanx I doubt he did anything to root it. Its an engineering build so is built rooted. Is there a possibility that this rom (with fixes from hungary) could be made into a flashable zip so that it can be flashed more easily and people (flibblesan) can make a custom rom from it I did try to make it as an ota package (update.zip) but it fails because the build system wants a recovery image. I need to look at either including a recovery or finding a way to disable the need for it. If someone wants to manually extract the image contents and repack them as an update.zip that should work. I tried signing a 2.1 rom last week using JesusFreak's testsign java app and couldn't get it working (java version problem), what do people use for signing roms?

Guest Tom G Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Any luck with fixing wifi (or any of the other bugs) yet? Radio data actually works. I mentioned it a week or two back. I think there is a permissions problem stopping Android from recognising it, but you can manually configure it from the command line. This is only good as a proof that the data connection does work. Android will still not recognise it after manually bringing up the connection. DNS fails. I haven't tried a resolv.conf with some static servers in it yet, that would probably work but it really should set them dynamically by dhcp. # netcfg lo UP 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 0x00000049 dummy0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000082 rmnet0 UP 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001043 rmnet1 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001002 rmnet2 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001002 # netcfg rmnet0 dhcp # netcfg lo UP 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 0x00000049 dummy0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000082 rmnet0 UP 114.74.101.106 255.255.255.252 0x00001043 rmnet1 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001002 rmnet2 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001002 # ping 66.102.11.104 PING 66.102.11.104 (66.102.11.104) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=1 ttl=54 time=31535 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=2 ttl=54 time=30546 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=3 ttl=54 time=29556 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=4 ttl=54 time=28575 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=5 ttl=54 time=27616 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=6 ttl=54 time=26616 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=7 ttl=54 time=25616 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=8 ttl=54 time=24617 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=9 ttl=54 time=23625 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=10 ttl=54 time=22626 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=11 ttl=54 time=21636 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=12 ttl=54 time=20645 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=13 ttl=54 time=19646 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=14 ttl=54 time=18657 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=15 ttl=54 time=17657 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=16 ttl=54 time=16666 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=17 ttl=54 time=15676 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=18 ttl=54 time=14676 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=19 ttl=54 time=13686 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=20 ttl=54 time=12686 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=21 ttl=54 time=11696 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=22 ttl=54 time=10696 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=23 ttl=54 time=9706 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=24 ttl=54 time=8706 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=25 ttl=54 time=7716 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=26 ttl=54 time=6716 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=27 ttl=54 time=5726 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=28 ttl=54 time=4726 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=29 ttl=54 time=3726 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=30 ttl=54 time=2726 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=31 ttl=54 time=1736 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=32 ttl=54 time=736 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=33 ttl=54 time=84.8 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=34 ttl=54 time=93.4 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=35 ttl=54 time=101 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.11.104: icmp_seq=36 ttl=54 time=100 ms ^C --- 66.102.11.104 ping statistics --- 36 packets transmitted, 36 received, 0% packet loss, time 35005ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 84.817/14376.724/31535.218/10018.836 ms, pipe 32 # ping google.com ping: unknown host google.com Some slow pings there. @ Tom G: "Install wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre2.apk I noticed that when you try to run tethering, it initializes tiwlan with different parameters, so I used those in /etc/wifi/loadit.

We don't use tiwlan, we use ar6000. The ar6000 module itself loads and I think works correctly, the problem appears to be in wpa_supplicant somewhere and I think is permissions related. If you load the module manually you can manually configure a connection (similar to the radio connection it won't be recognised by Android).

Guest Epic-Emodude Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Out of interest, what kernel has this been built on .29 or .32?

Guest Josh04 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Tom G: It's been a good while since I was looking at it, but when I was going through the Donut code there was definitely a place in some of the Android wifi gubbins where you told it which network adapter/module it was supposed to be using. Without that, the module would load and ifconfig etc would work, but no Android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
