Guest tjeerdos Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 I could never get beta2 to work properly, calculator, screen grab and a few other apps refuse to run. I can now got those apps to work with the following 2d/3d driver update I grabbed the driver package somewhere in this thread and removed some of the stuff that I think does not belong with the driver to make this update. I have also making receiving a few calls with no dropping out after 30s, but this could be just lucky. It is early stage yet, so will see how i go and report back. If anyone is having problems with calculator app, please try this update and let me know if it actually helps or it was just lucky that it got things working after 10 fresh installs :D I recommend you do a fresh install with beta2_1024, and if it does not work well you can always fresh install the original o2bfilesys package with this update. Cheers. since calculator still isn't working with this update i was wondering with apps you also got working thanks to the update greets tjeerdos
Guest problematika Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 WOW Installing Android on My Storage was the best thing I ever did! :) No more kernel panic, no more slow downloads on wlan, overall speed is much better as well! Totally recommend it :D Goodbye sd card :) Hello decent Android! I repeat it so much time! Android working wonderfull when is installed on my storage! :D
Guest bu11d0g Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I repeat it so much time! Android working wonderfull when is installed on my storage! :D lol sorry, i must've just passed right through them :) too many posts u know :D too bad for me :/ but now it's working great hehe o/
Guest kyda Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) since calculator still isn't working with this update i was wondering with apps you also got working thanks to the update greets tjeerdos Have you tried fresh install with the original o2bfilesys package? this works really well for me. Other apps that I got working with this update are shootme, gtuner (gstrings), angry bird (patched version), they all crashed with other 2d/3d packages on beta2. But as I said this could be just coincidence, I will do more testing. So far the only app that does not work is the integrated Home switcher, but this could be widespread.

Guest radie Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 root thru Ubuntu cd /media/disk/system/bin sudo rm -rf su sudo ln -s /media/disk/system/xbin/su su chmod 6755 /media/disk/system/xbin/su or u can refer to here n see post #6 if u want to use ADB just followed your guide. eveything is ok until the last command. error says Operation is not permitted.
Guest thew0lf Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) just followed your guide. eveything is ok until the last command. error says Operation is not permitted. Use "sudo" on this one as well. EDIT: the guide is NOT correct. Use "sudo ln -s /system/xbin/su ." instead of the third line. Edited February 15, 2011 by thew0lf
Guest LOLOH2 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Hi, I wonder anyone solve the issue of not using power/end call button to wake up the phone, only use screen off/unlock button to wake up the phone(side). I don't like using the power button to wake up the phone, and I alway have to press two three times hard, very annoying. I've used Rapid button and Menu fix but no help. Thanks.
Guest kyda Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I repeat it so much time! Android working wonderfull when is installed on my storage! :D On my phone android performance is so sluggish on "My Storage", it runs much smoother on SD card, I must have a very fast SD card.
Guest xson Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Use "sudo" on this one as well. EDIT: the guide is NOT correct. Use "sudo ln -s /system/xbin/su ." instead of the third line. I follow your guide to perform rooting... After it, my android cannot boot, it keep on rebooting, and didn't see boot screen
Guest Pete B Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 On my phone android performance is so sluggish on "My Storage", it runs much smoother on SD card, I must have a very fast SD card. I have a brand new class 10 card which is the highest class I have seen in micro sd and find "my storage" to be faster all round. But the main thing that changed me was the kernel errors that suddenly appeared after a crash when I ran it from storage card. And this wasn't from a fault with the card itself because my storage card has 10GB of data/music/video's on it and none of it is corrupted. Happened 3 times to me so got sick of reinstalling again. Never had it on my storage. I know the read and wrote speeds are meant to be faster on the sd card by a fair bit so it does appear a little odd.
Guest kyda Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Go to Project home page and report this update if u think that this can fix problem with dropping out of calls after 30s! :D I need more testing but so far I have not had a drop out.
Guest vudn54 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I have installed Beta2 Adroid SD card but failed to sleep. Every time the machine sleep for a long time, it does not show up anymore. How resolved,please?
Guest kyda Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I have installed Beta2 Adroid SD card but failed to sleep. Every time the machine sleep for a long time, it does not show up anymore. How resolved,please? How long is a long time? I had just reinstalled on SD card using the o2bfilesys, the 3g update and my 2d/3d package, it's been running for approx 6 hrs with no sleep issue. I will leave it to go to sleep without charging and see if I have the same issue.
Guest Gunchul Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) Android on Omnia II is support MMS? My phone(Installed Beta2) can't send/receive MMS. APN and MMS setting are correct... 3G no problem... Edited February 15, 2011 by Gunchul

I found my sd card installations ended up doing this after some time. I changed to my storage install and have never had this error again apart from when I had the wrong partition value in the default.txt You could try using ubuntu and its fsck command to check the file system of the ext2 partition.

Guest Yce Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Anyone know how to set android to use data connection only when needed?
Guest Omid King Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Hi All , i Couldn't Run Android On My O2 :D( When I Click On Haret For Second Time It stopped At : [ 7.138160 ] Kernel Panic - Not Syncing: No Init Found. Try Passing Into= Option To Kernel . PLZ HELP ...
Guest kyda Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I did a fresh install of beta2 with your 2d/3d drivers but calculator still now working. Must be something else you did. Thanks! If you have not tried the original o2b2filesys package then try a fresh install with that, follow by the 2011-02-10 bugfix follow by the 2d/3d update. Other things that I did, with my SD card From WINMO Mount SD card as storage Still running WINMO, connect phone to Ubuntu machine, run sudo -s (do this once then you dont have to worry about sudo for each following command) gparted Delete all partitions on SD card, /dev/sdd Then create two partitions as follow 1st primary partition size 2047 FAT32 2nd primary partition size 2047 EXT2 then (fdisk -l to list all available partitions) mount /dev/sdd1 /media/disk1 mount /dev/sdd2 /media/disk2 Extract haret.exe. default.txt, zImage, and o2bete (for completeness) from the o2b2filesys on to disk1 Extract on to disk2 the rest of the packages in the order outlined earlier. Then sync;sync;sync umount /media/disk* that were all I did, it works everytime now, root et all.
Guest kyda Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I need more testing but so far I have not had a drop out. I can confirm the call drop-out issue is still there.
Guest xcavs Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) I did a fresh install of beta2 with your 2d/3d drivers but calculator still now working. Must be something else you did. Thanks! Try another calculator applications from market such as realcalculator. :D Anyone know how to set android to use data connection only when needed? I dunno, only use apndroid. When I want to use data connection only just turn on it. My phone runs great all goes well, there are only a few applications that cause system instability, and battery lifetime is still fast. Waiting for the camera implementation in the next development.. GREAT works Dev. :D Edited February 15, 2011 by xcavs
Guest Goodge Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Is anyone with the i8000 from Bell Canada getting reasonable battery life, or are all of ours not going to sleep properly??
Guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Great work...love my Omnia2 now :D Windows sucks.. Couldn't download from market ("starting download") like many others..and google solutions didn't work. had to create a new google account, worked then :D
