And you (thebeast20), You have now the WinMo (Windows Mobile OS) on HDD, and this Android on SD Card.
So you have two OS on Mobile and the Android won't effect or make problems for your main OS (WinMo).
And when you want to switch android to WinMo, just shutdown android and press power button to start WinMo. and again to start android go to explorer and tap on HaRET.

gps issue
In fact, there is one reported issue: after running android, the gps in WM may not always work. Solution is available: see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11515143&postcount=169

Some people have reported a freeze while "Loading Linux" in HaRET.
Have a look here. This maybe a sd card issue and could help you.

thanks to devs that help others who face problem.I have a question that refer to dualboot and microphone,when the dualboot and microphone fixed?maybe it is not proper time,but I want know whether the developing of android on mini will stop in a few days?I need someone confirm it,thanks.

I have a problem, I everything have nicely copied to me sd card, he starts on but as soon as he android home start up screen he gives the wrong - >
the application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Pleas tru again.
with 2.1 I did not have this problem.
What have do do I?

I have the same problem.
Please, can anyone post the link for Android 2.1 to try with it?
Thanks

Cotullas system.ext2 is 2.1.

Thanks codiak.
With Android 2.1 i don't have the problem.

Strange... I only got this kind of messages in 2.1.
Since I switched to 2.2. (cardsharings lates release) I got no problems.

Anyone knows if is possible set italian language in Andorid 2.1?
I have search but in the language options is not present.

first remove sim-card(not SD), then start android first time, then insert sim-card(not SD)

Ok Works Perfectly, Very Very Thanks!

Made it a bit further, the differnce is that the guide starts in the background but it stills gives me the error message that it want me to force close the android.process. But a small step further thats good.

Thank you to everyone it works woohoo. I don't have data but I guess that will be solved along with the battery, anyway thanks.

THIS IS A DMA WIFI HERO BUILD:
Thanks goto addisu and dzo for getting a working Wifi module and all the hard working developers who get Android ported to the various devices.
Thanks to JAC for making the base rom (JACHeroski1.6)
This pack was tested and worked before uploading!
Directions:
0) If you have a data.img delete it first!
1) Copy all files from "Required" to the root of your memory card. I recommend at-least a 512mb.
2) Launch haret and click "Run"
2.1) You will need to wait for the data.img (data store) to be created, this takes around 2 minutes. This stores your files.
3) It takes sometime to get to the setup screen. If the screen turns off, just turn it back on. It will come up.
4) Go through the intro of Android (you only do this once)
The first 3 steps get you into Android
The following gets you Wifi (Kaiser/Tilt only)
* In this build, you can now select your WiFi in the setup.
In side Android:
1) Bring the menu up
2) Goto settings
3) Go to Settings -> Wireless Controls then click "Wi-fi" wait until there is a check
4) Select your network under Wi-Fi Settings
6) Make sure you save your "calibration" file and keep a copy of it save so you can just move it to future builds.
House cleaning:
I did not develop any of this kit, I simply put the pieces together and made them available in an easy to use package.
If you need any help please leave a comment in the forum!
To setup APN you must configure it, this can be found on the Android Vogue Wiki( http://code.google.com/p/vogue-android/wikii/HowToInstall )

Well, the previous one is not for strictly a build, its more for the wikis and stuff. This thread is strictly for downloading a complete package.
cool, I'll bite!
Trying to follow the steps when i type "su"
i get "uid 10027 not allowed to su" , I did a search for this phrase and the only hit i got was the same error, but person asking was ignored.
Any ideas on how to get around this?
I'm running on a Tilt.
Thanks !!
Excellent, any mirror not from rapid or mega?, my network has the storage web filter , a FTP mirror will be great!
Thanks in advance,

So the hero zip file is a rom? and if so can you flash it to a kaiser ?
keep it up...
if its like HTC HERO, it would be nice
Thanks natalic, it works.
Some additional points:
1) Ensure you're getting the file from the rapidshare link. I tried the latest build from the project site (android-1.5-2009-08-04.zip) and I never managed to extract the calibration file
2) There's a hero build here (http://drop.io/calibrationfiles) but I would suggest to get the calibration file out 1st before trying the hero build. It seems that you wont be able to access the terminal easily from Hero builds... (Maybe it's just me)
What works and not in the Android build (non-hero):-
1) Browser works
2) Market works
3) Google Sync works
4) Google maps does not work

yes it is, android is starting to need a forum all to itself, or you can look at it like this if the android threads are builds from diff "android chefs" then it would be no different than multiple rom threads for diff chefs or diff wm versions.
Heres my working repack. Enjoy

Is it reasonably responsive on your kaiser? I tried one build of it today, and it was awful. I mean all the features are cool, but no amount of features can replace responsivness...

The Hero UI works. Its just not that fast. I can vouch for that. I dont know how he has wifi working on it. I could have sworn the driver had to be cooked into the system.img

'unflash' Android NAND back to WM?

Forgive me if this is already solved...search function cannot find proper answer to resolve problem.
I used NAND method to install Android, work good with KaiserDroid, and I can get Bluetooth to work at minimum level, but too dangerous to release as it cause random shutdown while transfer files via transfer apk I make.
I need access to WM again to study related functions, I can't find solution how to reverse flash, since RUU need activesync, and I don't have flashing box with me right now.
Can someone please tell me if I can flash from Android NAND back to WM using only USB cable/RUU? I have HTC Polaris.
Pardon my English, I from Japan, still learning many things.
I may be able to provide help as soon as camera can capture and store image, but need time, as work is in schedule.

Thank you for your help, did work, thank you very much.
I will do my best to contribute to the project in any form I can.
Had anyone notice some apks cannot resize properly and result in bottom screen croped by 10-30px?
I try to adjust in many way but fail, is this screen hardware related or more like software script problem?
Please enlighten.
change default.txt - if using haret - to 320x428
or flash 320x428 nbh if nand
it also affects what u can see in market
hi

I used the mywarmdonut android image
i need to quit android and get back to WM but the bootloader just doesn't come out and it is pissing me off!!!
why is it?
i'm pressing the button, as always, but it won't ****in work

[WORKING!] Android on XDA Orbit 2

Since I posted a thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=675311 and nobody could help me. I spent the past 5 days trying to get it to work and did it successfully (through haret).
Here's how to did it:
1. Download this .RAR I put together that includes:
-Eclair
-haret
-default.txt
2. Edit the "mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480" part of the "default.txt" to your needs. (either 320/480 or 240/320)
3. Put the content of the folder "android-orbit2-eclair" to the root of your SD card so it should be something like this:
Code:
-(D:) SD Card [COLOR="Red"](root)[/COLOR]
--conf
--media
--default.txt
--haret.exe
--initrd.gz
--rootfs.img
--system.sqsh
--zImage
4. Navigate to the SD Card (start>programs>file explorer>storage card) and click on the "haret.exe"
5. Once that has loaded up click "run" (about 3 lines down on right side)
6. Just wait, Give it chance to do its thing and simple... Android running on your XDA orbit 2.
any problems, reply to this thread and I will try to fix.
Thanks, James
it dosent work on my htc touch cruise.
I click on Run, and the screen becomes gradually black, and that finished as that… nothing any more occurs.
The screen is lit, but is black, and nothing occurs.
New problem now: I have the same message than you :
Code:
sh:2: unknown operand
losetup: /dev/block/loop 1: No such file or directory
Failed
Failed to reach system.img on SD card.
Whats the problem ?

If you read the title it says for XDA orbit 2 not touch cruise.
Have you managed to get gprs/3g working with this? I can't seem to get mobile web working on my XDA Orbit II
I dont know whart u are doing here.
But i can use myns donut and eclair totally easy without modding something.
I just have to use the right "default.txt"...
Most packages you find here habe a "default-polaris.txt" in it or you use the one form myn ... It works great for the orbit 2 too
.....
But maby i dont get what you are doing here.. some special build or something?
BUt running android on orbit 2 is net a problem at all just use right conf.
-----------------------
@moondemon
Wifi works with myns eclair and donut. There are fixes (androidupdate.tar) you have to use (nomorootfs)
could u tell me which version have u installed? 1.6?
I succeeded installing the 1.6 version. but when I was trying installing the latest version, I was stucked at the screen which requires me to long-push the dpad center button. I did it but didnt work. I've even tried every keys, still didnt work.
could u give me a hand on it?
I have tried myn's and default-polaris does not work on my xda orbit 2. Also when I do get haret to run I have had trouble actually getting android to boot due to a continual "power wakeup" message. The default-polaris results in a flashing white screen for me. This config is the only config that actually works on my orbit 2.
Hello, i am just a newbie on Android for Polaris, so plz forgive me dump postings At the moment i am a bit spacy what i have to put together to work Android on my XDA2.
android-orbit2-eclair works on my XDA2 after installing but:
phone can't do outgoing calls:
3G can`t connect,
Cam/Gallery crashes
Wifi works.
Touchscreen works and all the rest.
before i installed the recent builds of froyo and eclair
System shows 10-15 min nice boot flash, then it works, but touch screen doesn`t work.
Anyway all the developers doing a great job here!

Im not using sd haret anymore. If you try with nand flash (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636024) everything works like a charm.
But as i used haret on my Orbit2 i was good with the package myn offered in her donut(or eclair im not sure).
In the package were a default.txt and a one for polaris/Orbit. I changed the polaris one to default (renaming) and it worked.
I think it was the donut package and it worked with zimages for eclair too.
Try this package if it works its worth a attemp to look into the default txt for other builds.
But atm i would suggest to give android at flash a try. Its almost perfekt for daily use if you not to much with some special programms on winmo.
As far as i read there are problems with haret atm gernerally that programms close even if install is fine.
Seems that flashing is the solution to all my problems, but
can you try to explain what makes the difference between haret and a NAND flash install relatet to the runing system?
Unfortunaley my XDA Obit2 is the carrier of my beloved navigation software. The other Wimo apps are junk compared with android. If there is a offline solution for Car Navigation on android, i could kick Wimo into the trash bin. Also i am a Linux user as well on my PC
Camera and astro application not working
Camera and astro application not working .. please help ...
xda orbit 2
I stuck these sections of
I've tried it and it seems it works, but I have a few questions and one major problem:
1. I installed the systems without the SIM card. When I started it again with SIM card, system says that the PIN I type is wrong altough I know that it's correct. How to solve it? Maybe it is so because I'm not O2 customer?
2. Is it possible to boot Android automatically without flashing NAND?
3. Can I theoretically Install Donut or Froyo using this method simply by putting different Zimage in the folder?
4. Do I have to perform another installation in case of buying a battery of more capacity? I saw that default.txt contains information about the battery.
5. May it work well If I change default.txt to the one prepared by atools?
Thanks for advance and greetings.
Double post, sorry.

[app]OS Easy Launcher v3--Multilanguage-Multi OS support

Welcome to OS Easy Launcher
I have developed this app initially to launch android in a simpler manner. It now supports booting multiple OS's on your Storage card. Any issues related to the stability of android or the other OS's are not related to my app but the build of the OS itself. One of my main goals of this app is to make it as aesthetically pleasing as possible for a WM app. if you see any room for improvement let me know and I will try to make it better.
For all builds of Android and Ubuntu that will work with this app go Here
Instructions:
1. download and unzip to the root of your storage card the version of android or ubuntu from above.
2. download Android Easy Launcher and install to your phone
3. Launch easy installer and launch the build type you had unzipped to the root of your Storage Card
4. Enjoy!!
Instructions for Win 95:
1. Download here
2. extract to root of your Storage Card a
3. Run Os Easy Launcher app and enjoy!
Note: when exiting Win 95 your phone will exit to landscape mode. you will manually need to change your orientation back to portrait.
If you have any suggestions let me know. also if you are having issues let me know what build your using and if your using sense build or not as well as rom so i can make this as compatible as possible.
If your a chef and want to cook this in your app feel free to do so. if you want to be notified of when i update the app for your next rom pm me and i will give you a heads up when its ready.
UPDATE:
Video of how to put android on your phone along with using the app coming soon!!! (need to charge my video camera)
Credits:
Thank you tbdawg for the code to check if the files are on the sd card.
Updated translation for German Rom version thanks to akeos2000
For this app in other languages please see post 2!
Current app version:
v3
English
German
Norwegian
Current features:
-All Launguages-
*launches desire build still will need to run CLRCAD.exe first.(im trying to fix it so you dont have to)
*launches froyo build
*launches Windows 95
*launches ubuntu
*info selection added in menu - displays a brief info on the app in a message box
*checks if file for build is located on storage card before it launches. if the file is not found it will display a message. see images for example
*now boots both CLRCAD.exe and haret.exe for certain builds requiring CLRCAD.exe to run properly.
*now able to boot multiple builds in several locations on storage card ---- Froyo located in the Android folder, Desire located on root of storage card and Ubuntu located in the Ubuntu folder (note: app does not install the folders they are located in the current zip files from the link i posted above. just unrar to storage card basically.)
German Version:
Updated translation thanks to akeos2000
Future features:
*auto update android build
*multilanguage support
Fixes:
V3
*removed standard build of android due to the newest build of Desire gives you the option to launch with sense or without.
*replaced standard build with windows 95
*updated Background image as well as icon image
*app renamed to OS Easy Launcher
V2.5
*CLRCAD.exe for both desire build and new froyo build launch before haret automatically. if the build is not found a message will appear. This does not require a reg tweak to work.
*Now you can have the new froyo Android folder, Ubuntu folder and the desire build all be located on the storage card at once this will allow you to boot whatever version you want without having to overwrite to test the newest build.
*Updated app icon in stat menu
*updated UI again
V2
*now checks if file is located on storage card before it launches.
V1.5
*ubuntu now calls to proper folder to launch
*restored second button to boot CLRCAD.exe (only needed for desire build)
ETA of next update to app:
tomorrow most likely. working on multilingual support now.
Other Languages:
I have just translated everything in the original app. should work with foreign roms. just select the language of your app and it will search your storage card in the right language structure.
note: if you see the english version updated the foreign language version will be updated to the same build and reuploaded.
Currently Supported
*German - Confirmed Fully Working
*Norwegian - Confirmed Fully Working
Dont see your language then request it. Just let me know what they call storage card in your foreign rom!!
do i have to extract anything or jst download and launch
when i down load it and do step one an error comes up and when i do step two an error comes up and saysfailed to load file/storage card /zimage
I'm going to take a simple guess here and say you do not have a single Android file on your memory card. This is a simple shortcut program to the files that you should already have on your phone's memory card.
the app currently works best with the latest disire build 2.5. I am working on updating it for other images as i just read that some say zharet.exe so that should be resolved soon. currently you need to have extracted your latest android build to the root of your storage card then install my app and launch. I will also automate step 1 so all you will need to do is launch haret. I will be trying to get a hold of the devs and see if they would not mind if i included an update feature so you can use my app to update the build to the latest released version. Sorry i did not clarify as much earlier as i was headed to the hospital and wanted to get the thing uploaded real quick.
Well i am currently trying to finish downloading some more builds for the HD2 to test with my app. I believe i will have it set as sense build, standard build, Froyo build, and Ubuntu build. Post 1 will be updated with a new link to get any build of android for the HD2. New version to be uploaded as soon as all testing is done.
App updated to v1.5 and reuploaded. let me know if you find any issues.
Strange, but my device is held after runnig android
I have try two version of android (desired and standard)
in both cases after "init panel" command in console screen isa faded and device not respond to any actions, axcluding battary removal
May be i did some thing wrong ?
I get an error no matter what when i press either launch or run button. i have the android build stored on my storage card/root folder and extracted. what am i doing wrong?

I am making a video to show how to setup your storage card for andriod and using the app. i will have this up in the next day just need a charge on my camera as it is completely dead. Please remember any issues with android is not due to this app but due to the build of android. The devs have done an amazing job to get us to this point in such a fast time but its really only in the stages to playing with and not really functional for daily use.

HELP,HELP!!
Hi,
I followed Yr installation instructions to the letter...The moment i launched version 1.5...& chose the standard android build...my screen went blank...though it was normal but after a few minutes nothing...I then rebooted & now none of my apps want to run except the standard apps that come with the phone...
When reboot now notification pos up saying cant run-PocketNotify!
Manilla-2.5.19211619.0
ROM-1.66.421.1 (76641)wwe
Radio-15.30.50.07U
I tried to reinstall apps just says unsuccessful!
check ur date as i noticed when u return from android to wm it gets messed up. the app only lauches the exe for you and does not touch anything else. it does not even access anything from internal memory only the storage card. i think the issues are related to the android builds themselves as i lost the htc volume skin after running haret from my storage card without my app on the phone so thats why i lean towards it being build related. but do check all ur settings.
got it working 1st try. nice work my friend. if i werent so damn broke i would donate, even if your not asking.
cheers

Simple how-to run android from windows

TO ALL PEOPLE:
PLEASE STOP POSTING IN THIS TOPIC ABOUT "THIS PART DOESN'T WORK ECC ECC" WRITE IN THE TOPIC OF THE RELEASE (KERNEL OR SYSTEM), PLEASE LOOK IN THIS THREAD FOR WORKING SETUPS AND TRICKS, AND SEARCH ON THE FORUM BEFORE POSTING!
I start with thread with a information for all users:
Haret system sucks so if you want a full working android system left windows behind you and move to the new android world flash on nand.
With this how-to you will not erase any part of your system but you do at your own risk.
Main problem: screen
For polaris there are 3 type of screen. Usually pola100 (the old one) use panel 1, and pola 200 (09 edition) has panel 3 but ... not always works...
The best mode to test is try to install and after double reboot you have black screen change panel type.
What you need:
phone
sd card (1 Gb or more) 500 mb free
time

Do we have to delete/remove the install-seq.sh after installation?
Are both files (system & data) cleared with the installation script?
Thanks for the help.
install-seq.sh disable automatically after correct install.
This how-to is fir first install on disk on images so it format both data an system.
If you want to make only un update use bsg select partion and select update.
partition
I believe you should make this sticky
Don't post without reading!!!!
This method doesn't use sd partition, it create two imagedisk on sd!

hi there..
i solved the problem..i took an older Z image..and working fine
the problem is that more applications like camera..media player screen adjust don't work..
they try to run..(i mean ..in camera..i can see..but appears a messages with stop working..sorry). i don't know why..
nothing work well
and what about the contacts..how can i get them from my Sim card?
i don't know..
if you can help me will be great.
thx allot for yours assistance.
best regards.
The information from sim card are very limitated (neither pin code works) so if you want to export contact sync before starting with google and configur your google account on android.
old zimage are full of bugs and all developers install android on nand so starting android from haret has many unfixed bugs.
I've been playing around with the haret install for a week or so now, and I've found that, for me at least, it makes a huge difference which initrd.gz file I use.
The one dated 22-05-10 doesn't let me install any zImages newer than 29-04-10. After trying all sorts of combinations of base files with different dates (haret, zImage) and additions to the default.txt, changing the initrd.gz file to the one dated 20-02-10 fixed most of my problems and lets me install the most recent zImage files without a glitch.
No clue why, just that it works.
I'm running a Pola100 with the original WM6.0 ROM still on it, and radio version 1.58.25.14. Yeah, I need to upgrade to at least the official WM6.1 ROM and probably something better. But I'm a newbie at this, so I need to work up some courage first ;-)
hello,
I tried to install android on sd following your instructions, everything seems to go well until the screen where it says:
"Welcome to htc vogue Frøya
touch the android to begin "
I'll try, but the touch does not work, I tried using the d-pad, which does work, but I can only select the language and the emergency call.
zImage as I used: zImage-Frøya-15-07-10
androidinstall.tar as I used: Incubus26Jc's Super Frøya RLS11 Themed
please help me because I would switch to Android!
thanks

where can I find it?
thanks
I tried it unsuccessfully. Boot starts regulary, always ending on repeating error, looping forever.
I can read something like:
==============
ERROR no local apt for prog ... replying anyway
...
Setting function 4 for gpio ... that I don't own
==============
Is it related to which system file ? Loader? Kernel ? Or what ?
Thanks
What did you use for your installation?
I used the files mentioned at the very beginning of this post.
Regarding zimage: zimage-24-05-10
