Android on HTC cruise How to?
Hi all,
I'm REALLY confused or misinfomed or whatever on how to run andoid from my sd card.
I tried some things from a website androidonhtc but only got up to a point.
Is there a simple how-to on how to run android on cruise and some links on where to donwload the appropriate files?
For example i have got the haret but i can't find anywhere to download androidinstaller.tar
Am I close or far from my goal?
I know i might ask a silly question but guys i'm really confused.
Thanks anyway in advance.
as for how-to in hxxp://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/androidhtc/wiki/HowToInstall
after getting haretinstall.zip, you need a current kernel (zImage) from
- dzo = hxxp://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D
or
- sourceforge = hxxp://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/
------------------------
as for androidinstall.tar / .tgz you can get from
- vogue forum = hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=588
- kaiser forum = hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=602
- sourceforge = hxxp://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/
PS: sorry for the hxxp link, I have no permission to post any link yet
Thank you very very very much for your help!
Congratulations mensa07. Although I already knew all this stuff from your link, it took me some time to figure them out because I did not know there was such a good guide for starters. Very usefull link. Thank you

well, it's no garbage, just required more explanation. let me try to make it simpler. this guide will use zImage-eclair and vaniljeclair, change it to suit your taste accordingly
- get haretinstall.zip from here
extract this file and get default-polaris.txt (rename as default.txt), zImage-eclair (rename as zImage), initrd.gz and haret.exe. put all these files into andboot folder in root of your sdcard. your sdcard will look like this:
/andboot/default.txt
/andboot/zImage
/andboot/initrd.gz
/andboot/haret.exe
- next you need to download vaniljeclair from here
extract the file and you will get androidinstall.tar, put this file along with those files on /andboot/
you should have those 5 files or you cannot boot android.
- select haret.exe to execute, press run, pay attention to the text rolling, when it asks you to hold button, hold volume button up, and you will be given installer menu. choose install and delete data. let the format and installer finish, then you will be given menu again. do not quit, just reset, and restart from haret (you will see that you have data.img, system.img and some other files). at this time let the installer do not interrupt, it took more than 5 minutes before android logo asks you to touch screen
- if there is problem during booting, post it here, let people here try to solve

no, if you start android from haret.exe, it will not erase anything.
even data in the sd card??

it will not erase your sd card either, however you might want to backup your data first just in case something does not go well.

BT and WIFI should work, there is vaniljeclair thread on this problem if something is not working.
as for contact I think you need google account to sync.
Hi,
Thank you for the guide. I actually follow it and encountered an error. When it asked for volume up or d-pad center, I did, then it prompted that it was waiting for something several times. So I soft-reset the phone and launch it again.
Then, after haret.exe is booting linux, I have got a strange screen with scramble text.
How can I put everything back in the previous state to reinstall it propely?
Thank you
More info....
Did you get to the install screen after pressing centerdpad?
If yes, did it install?
What was it waiting for? The error message can give a clue what is wrong.
i manage to get to ask to hold up the center d-pad then get into a installer menu..
currently i just cant get my wifi and bt work..
haven get connection to sign in to google account..
I have all five file on my SD card but when I click on haret on my Sd and hit run where it say defaukt.txt..I get a error saying " cannot open script file \storage card\andboot\default.txt" is im doing something wrong..thx
u got change the polaris default-polaris to default??

Download a stock ROM and extrakt the stock icons with cfc_gui.

I don't remember me see a thread fore the original slider (every Stock Rom have it, and everyone will have something els)
But when you say you have install a other Slider, but you aren't satisfied. Was it a cab file? If it is a cab file, just removed it; and it will bring you back to the original slider.
I't just a Idea; maybe it can be useful fore you.
Kurt thanks but i tried removing it then i get a services.exe error when i restart the device..

So you installed a cab and it won't uninstall? What cab was it? Try to reinstall it. If you have an error uninstalling, trying to reinstall the cab will usually complete the uninstall. If that doesn't work, if I know what cab it was I can figure out what files to extract to post them.
paten thanks but i think you misunderstood ..i have succesfully removed the unwanted cab but when i restart my device i have a system32.exe error(not services) so basically its missing a slider
It sounds like you have other problems then. When you uninstalled the cab successfully, your original slider should have returned. I would try to reinstall that cab again and then uninstall it to see if that fixed the problem. If that didn't work I would do a hard reset.
i have installed latest version on c0kie home tab with CHT .
every thing is working perfect , but i dont know how to change the appearance of that i mean themes can someone help please that how to change the look of mobile thanks alot ................
Well your in the right place.......
Look through this section for the theme you want to install and follow the instructions in the thread........
If its a particular theme your having a problem with then whoever made it will usually be more than happy to help you sort the problem.
Most themes will be provided as cab files which you should place on your device and installed (by clicking on them) from there.
Always install themes and mods to your device memory and not your sd card.

I don't know what you are looking for, but there are lot of skins here present (in cab files)
Just download the cab's, place the cab file to your sd, navigate with your device to your map on your SD where you have store your cab files, press on the cab to install, and select internal memory as installation path. follow by a soft reset, and all will works fine.
Perhaps if you could let us know what you have tried to install and how you did it then we can figure out why its not working.
ohh yeah just to close

hi i have Omega Rom nd then i have installed Co0kie HomeTab latest with CHT latest
nd then now im trying to install .cab themes but the problem is just clock and some options changes but main affect is same like lock screen isnt change and background is not changed whats the prob thanks in advance
nd one more thing when i install .cab file its not asking me that where to save it in sd card or where its installing automatically as u said install it in phone memory but its not possible becuase its installing auto i dont know where
ok first of all the wallpaper you l will need to change by yourself,
go to the cht menu and select set wallpaper.
make sure you have the cht lockscreen enabled by installing cht editor and enabling it using that.
if the cab is automatically installing then thats because the creator has set it to install to device so don't worry.
some themes come in separate cabs for clocks and other things so maybe you could post the cabs here and ill have a look at what they are meant to be changing.
try asking in the theme thread for help because if its an issue with the theme then someone else has probably had the problem before.
!!!ATTENTION!!!
Hi Ninjablade,
BE CAREFUL...
Before you enable CHT lockscreen... BE SURE you DO NOT have a PIN CODE enabled to unlock your phone....becuase you could be forced to do a Hard Reset.
I recomend you that you read very carefuly the CoOkie Home Tab thread to have clear how it works.
Then, as our friends said, you must ask for help in the thread of the theme you would like to install for specific instructions.
Good luck

To fix the browser I need to recompile the source. I'm currently working on that. I don't know when I will get done because I don't have the phone handy all the time, but I post it as soon as I'm done.

Also, when it starts "sometimes", it shows (com.systemui process error) and asks to force close ..... i see that the status/ notification bar on top which displays your battery, connections, usb connections n all, is missing.
I have Rooted my device.
This problem started soon as i was using root uninstal software and i was backing up some apps and uninstalling them to free up some internal storage...
but i guess i have uninstalled some, which i shouldnt have...
Please tell me if you need some more information to solve this problem....
Please please help me out with this Thank You...

I think you uninstalled some system apps. May be the systemUI.apk , it is the one which is responsible for the status bar.

You should have had a backup of your systemUI else at least a nandroid backup.
It seems you don't have a Custom recovery like cwm.
Also you don't have the systemUI backup i think.
Other choices as you don't have backups-
Search for your device's CWM try to flash it & then find a custom Rom for your device and flash it.
Another way is that ask some of the members with the same device as yours for the systemUI.apk and push it into the /system/app either with the help of adb or CWM through aroma filemanager.:thumbup:
Please do a little search on what i am suggesting and try to learn & do as i can't post all the methods step by step in a single post.

Any methods that i know couldn't help you AFAIK.
Coz there are ways complex for you to get into right now. (such as taking logcat through adb, finding & debugging the problem)
Better try to give it in service center, and don't say that you rooted the device.
They can easily flash a fresh firmware for your device.
All the best:thumbup:

1. The service center people will directly know that the device is rooted, coz as i said my device starts up and functions normally for sometime, and i can see root apps on the menu, superSU, RootUninstaller , Titanium Backup and all... and I would like to keep it as last option to go to service center, they would take too long to solve this...
2. Do you suggest Uninstalling these root apps first....?
3. Do you suggest Unrooting my device before i take it to the service center...? coz i had read that they wont know that it was rooted then..
4. How do you take logcat through android debugging , find & debug the problem-- What do i require to do this, i mean the required softwares n all....
5. i also have the com.android.acore unexpectedly closed error... i cannot access call functions as well....
6. What are the probable causes for this problem........ ? Thank you..!

Try a data/cache wipe first & check whether it gets solved..
1. Google it as 'download adt'.
2. It can be said as adb environment. It's a part of adt.
