MOTOCLIQ Question for MODS(NOT A ROM) - G1 Android Development

Ok so I just got my motocliq in the mail today and off course I love it... My question is since its based in the Android OS will we just use THIS forum or will another section be made? I figure u all just make an Andriod Thread and make Sub threads for all the different Andriod phones

I would hope not since this is a HTC forum

this is an HTC Forum, this particular section of the forum pertains to anything G1/Dream. It would be pretty pointless for us to include blur/cliq development in here, unless it is a port of that OS TO the G1/Dream.
That being said, im sure there are moto forums out there, you just gotta search. I wanna say it was Drizzy that mentioned though, that development on the Blur was going to be harder at first because of some new hardware/software stuff, not sure exactly what it was so dont quote me on that.

I'm assuming that there will be a Sub-Forum devoted to it, once development on it is completed.
Until then... well, I assume that nothing will be released.

bet yeah i know this is MAINLY an htc forum but at the same time you guys do have the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 forum on here lol just sayin

i wish XDA would be split into winmo android and symbian
nd then have the phones split after that screen, itd be alot better than having to scroll all the way down to find the G1

i'd vote for that.. esp now android is taking off alot of app related things are genral, and dev is very device specific.. so we could have like a genral and a devise specific section.

The Sony X1 is only up on this site because it was made by HTC for Sony... so u would have to find a dedicated Motorola development site to mod ur Cliq.

you have a point... lol but i still have my g1 so im not goin anywhere for a while... and im also about 2 get the hero for my sprint phone so ill be here

But were have Palm phone up here as well!

Can you do me a favor and grab the boot.img off of it?
From a terminal on the phone
Code:
dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd1 of=/sdcard/boot.img bs=4096
Then transfer it to your pc so you can upload it here.
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/boot.img .
That would really be helpful for Blur development

ModMyMoto
I used to go to this site daily, til I got my Dream...ModMyMoto.
I am sure you will see a section for this phone there soon.

Well, HTC made some of the Palm phones that run WinMo also. All the phones listed on DES were made by HTC no matter what brand name u see on the front of them.

XDA not DES... stupid auto-correct

I remembrer drizzy saying the bootloader is locked so it either can't be rooted or will be harder to root. So it'll be a while till we see a forum anywhere

That's because the phone has to be rooted in order to pull the boot.img

It's not bs4096 it is bs=4096. Notice there is an equals sign in there

How-to Install Cab Files??

Sorry for such a "noob" question, but how do you install "cab" files? Do you click on them when in active-sync or do you have to cut-n-paste them somewhere?
Just wondering because I wanted to install several programs in Vp's "add-on" list but not sure how? I tried clicking on one and it didn't do anything?
Just copy the cab to your device and then open your file explorer on your device, find the cab, and double click it. It's that simple
Read the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
And enjoy your new toy
Moderator.... shouldn't this thread be locked? Not a WM6 related question...

Hi
U can install CAB files by two ways
1. Copy files to your device and double click
2. Download prgm CabViaSync u can directly install it form your desktop
http://www.modaco.com/Vista-WMDC-compatible-CAB-t248516.html
copy the cab file into your device itself ,that's all and double click on it on ppc
To copy it ,connect your device ,when activesync sync , u can click on explore button ,it will open ur device then just copy and paste
Where do you copy it to on the device? The Program menu? And then click on it from there?
I posted it here because I'm using WM6 although it's the same I gather with WM5. Sorry if it's in the wrong thread.
Thanks everyone. I'll try it.
Again, sorry if this is in the wrong thread.
dude, just copy it to say your storage card, go to file explorer, then to your storage card and click n it. lol..it's amazing, u know how to upgrade to WM6 but you dont know how to install a .cab file? lol .. wow.

THIS CANT BE IN THE WRONG THREAD YOU THARTED THE THREAD!! LOL
this is funny
Im not trying to be an ass to who-ever started this thread or the participants but this has to be the funniest question I have ever read on here. Why? because its a developers web site for test and mods and you made it here so far without even opening a cab file. thats like growing up, standing and getting food from the cubbards and then still not knowing how to open the fridge...i say this with humour not arrogance.
Is this thread serious or a joke?
I can't tell...
If it's serious, someone needs to gently put down the PPC and pick up a Nokia... more their speed.

Sorry man, I'm the bonehead. I make a living working on cars - not phones! And YES, I made it this far loading roms and not having to do anything with cabs!
The reason I'm wandering around the "developers" website is because I get the best answers here.
I'm sure if things were reversed, and you were rebuilding a "hemi" you *might* ask a silly question too.
So... before you work on the "hemi", don't you read the service manual first or do you just post the question hemi.mechanics.com?
I think that's why some people are flaming you for this question...
It's like saying you rebuilt the engine but you don't know how to add oil.
This reply is in no disrespect to you....

You can edit the Microsoft ROM images they provide for use in their emulators but there is no way to take a device specific file an emulate it unfortunately.

Did you receive this OTA or did you just find the link somewhere? This theoretically should be the same version that is on the Cliq already. We already have a dump from a retail Cliq device and it is incorporated into the S-Blur ROM.

If you give us a logcat of the issue in the proper thread, we can probably fix it for you. Make sure you follow the proper error reporting format.
We have already had this dump (thanks thedude! You've been a great help) and the s-blur 1.07 incorporates these updates.
i thought we had the pre-release dump, not the official. i must have missed that in my search. ive been waiting for one to build on.... thanks

All the other blur rom's were based on prerelease dumps, but the 1.07.1 in my thread is not.
this isn't an update.zip to be flashed to your phone btw.
It's a SHX file...old school motorola firmware. The modmymoto guys are working on it...and I'm trying out some stuff to see what I can actually do to modify the file.

i just jumped on a friends computer to download this (since i can never access rapidshare through tmo) and saw your post.... Thread bookmarked, please follow up when theres some progress on this. im dying for some official blurness to work with since the only dump ive got is a pre-release with drizzy stains.
My girl just bought a CLIQ and i gota say its pretty cool and the facebook app is 10 times better than the one in Eclair. Its not like a normal face book app there is an app named accounts and you put your email for your facebook account in it and you can have wigets for status updates messages ect. I still cant understand why there is not a single facebook app out right now that can send and recieve messages. Hopfully somone can get the facebook/accounts app from the cliq and deodex it to run on the G1

The source code that was released is not the complete source code. They aren't going to give out their proprietary components. The only source code they released were parts that contained GPL code. Check out the code tree and you'll see what I mean

i posted this in another forum the other day. If you power on the phone with the squares button (menu) held down it will bring up a blue screen at the bottom that says "Bootloader USB Int". When i plug it into the USB on my PC it comes up with a new device "Motorola Flash Interface" I don't know if this is significant to anybody?

Android is not a special "thing" you just put anywhere and run, it has a kernel and is composed out of drivers and configurations, i'm pretty shure everething is out there but needs to be packed out together...
I'm a software developer but i have no experience compiling Android, my research is driving me to the HTC Lexikon (Merge) recently launched, this PDA hardware is very similar to the Imagio and it stock's Android so the work will be almost done and we won't need to start from "0", if you can help about please contact me..
Try this one

Try this one, this PDA holds almost the same hardware as the imagio, it deffinitely should work:

Post your results !!!
Has AnyOne tried his solution?
the lexikon is almost alike to the imagio
and if it doesnt work you can flash back.
So its a win win
i dont use whitestone.
It booted (i guess) !!

Hi, i am currently developing Android for the Imagio, i just startted the process and some tests, yesterday i was able to boot using a Topaz old testing kernel, but the screen was blank. I plan to compile a custom kernel for the Imagio.
I posted the Lexikon image but it wont work for the imagio because of the processor are different (Imagio= MSM7600) but i guess i could use some drivers from the Lexikon...
Wish me luck, i'm reading a lot to understand the kernel and Android
You can download the image i used here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/h9LTDTdp/droid_booted_imagiotar.html
And maybe, if you find the correct cmd_line arguments for HaRET you can get the screen to work properly
Glad someone is working on this. I'm right there with you! Make a thread on the imagio forum or pm me if you need testing.
