After many tries here is it, my first beta for Android Eclair 2.1 for the Nike.
Work is still in progress and maybe out there there is someone who would like to help me in this project of porting a working version of android 2.1 to the nike.

http://rapidshare.com/files/363158134/20100103_Eclair_2.1_HTC_Nike.rar.html
UPDATE #1:
- Data Problem fixed, some disconnects but it can be used without problems (I reccomend to reset the modem when you dont use the connection anymore)
- Added some preinstalled apps:
Astro File Manager
Facebook App
Market
Google Maps
Youtube (Only Audio, Video does not work, i am working on it)
Modem
Advanced Task Manager
RELEASE #1:
- Calls and SMS work
- Data does not work, i am fixing this
####Install Instructions####
- Copy the andboot folder to the root of your SD
- Run Haret
- When haret is running hold the dpad middle button to enter the installation menu
- In the installation menu choose where to install (i use data and system on sd card partitions, its faster)
- Press Install System
- After the system is installed press quit and wait
The first boot is a little bit slow, there is no bootanimation in this built so dont worry if the screen turns black, just wait few minutes, after the first boot i recommend to reboot to speed up things.
Have fun!!!

Android uses your storage card. To go back to wimo you have restart you device.
When you want to update android: Download the files and over write the existing files.
Once installed Android, I can enter to Android, and Restart my device, I can go to my Windows mobile , So I want to Android again, How can I do? Need to install Andriod again????
does this work on the NEON?
Boot manager
I think there should be a boot manager.
ther IS a bootmanger:

Kernel Panic...
I had a kernel panic during the haret booting. then said..."Rebooting in 3 seconds..." then it freezed. Help.
@nik2208:
Do you have linux or programming experiences?
@rhombus:
I did not test it on the neon, just on my nike 20keys, you could try it and let me know.
@ebautista:
Do you use the zimage in my package? Try using another zimage, maybe the latest on the vogue project page works.
For the data connection i found that ppp is not invoked because i get an error that says that only root can run /bin/pppd, so maybe the data connection does not work becase pppd is not invoked, i will make some tries to check that.
@m0rph3us
both
Very good, i am working on the data problem, first of all pppd had permission problems so i fixed that, pppd is now called but it fail when it tries to create a pid file becase it says that the filesystems is read only... do you have icq or msn so we can se what we can do next?
@12432
i think this time is different: the installing procedure tells that the process is going to overwrite the rom..
the old android version used the storage card like a guest..not this one..
@12432:
Dont choose to install it on the nand, choose sdcard partition or image files... Android will be installed on the sdcard and winmo remains on the nand.
You did a great job man, got it running on my HTC Nike, and it performs better than other android ports ( looking to speed and connectivity ). The only downsides at the moment, is that i can't activate XT9 dictionary while writing a message, and the camera functionality ( every port had this for as far I know, so can't blaim you ).
So my question to you is, do you know any way to enable (Dutch) XT9 on this rom? I got the device running on Dutch language now, but in the dictionary-settings, there are no known words, whatsoever. Since I don't know if there is any way to browse my storage card ( didn't see any explorer or anything ), i can't install it like a cab or anything.
Would be cool if i could get it running, would make it a wonderfull android port
I have an old android 1.5 with data working, it can help you for the data on 2.1 ?
[email protected]
Ok guys, big step foward, i am connected succesfully to the internet, but dns does not work, this means:
- If i open the browser and type www.google.com no page is displayed
- If i open the browser and type the ip-adress of www.googl.com, the page is displayed
so there is just a little dns problem, maybe tomorrow i am able to solve it, even the 3g icon on the top is not displayed...
why am I not able to install the os?
after the choice "install" the procedure starts formatting..
then, and after a lot, a message tells
"can't umount /data: invalid arguments" and goes back to initial choice list..
After installation process when you are back in the list choose fix permissions,then back In the list choose quit than wait...after a few minutes Android. Should start
Is there anyone in San Diego that could install a fast, smooth and reliable version of Android on my HD2? If so, please let me know when you can do it and for how much $.
I spend my time between coastal North County and Chula Vista.
Thanks
Steve
It's so simple. Why on Earth would you pay someone to do it?
You download the one that looks best to you from HD2 Android Development, unzip it, and put the Android folder onto your sd card.
Not inside any folders on your card, just on the card.
Then in Windows Mobile, you go to your file explorer, go into the Android folder on your sd card, tap CLRCAD (nothing will happen, thats ok just tap it each time you start Android) and then tap Haret.
It really is as simple as putting a folder onto your sd card.
Just do it yourself. If you manage to screw it up, it won't mess up your phone and somebody on this forum will take pity on you and show you where you messed up
don't forget to flash a newer radio!

good point, forgot about radio.
as long as it's a XX.XX.50.XXX radio, its good
I started this thread because I had just discovered that I can't do the install on my mac with an emulator. I really need to do it myself just so I know how to do it so I don't have to hassle finding someone to do updates. Sooooo, I'm doing a clean install on an old Windows machine just to get this done.
Are there simple non-developer instructions anywhere on how to do this? I've had two people tell me how simple this is but the instructions on this forum don't seem that simple with terms like "flash, etc. What does the term "flash" mean?

It's called that because of the type of memory. Anyway, it basically means install. "Flashing" a new radio means you're installing a different version while overwriting the existing one.
HOW TO FLASH:
Use "CustomRUU.exe" to flash the file (.nbh file extension). Phone must be connected and have >50% battery. If the CustomRUU.exe isn't included, download here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=239860&d=1256298258
Step 1 - HSPL3 must be installed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
The .zip attached to this must be extracted and installed. Simple enough, no?
Step 2 - Flash a new Radio ROM.
I recommend the newest one (2.15.50.14)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Step 3 (OPTIONAL) - New Windows Mobile ROM
I put optional because Android will run without a different one, it just might not be as well. Download the "RELOADED 3" one in red. I use this one. Flash the same way.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776971
Step 4 - Download Android flavor of your choice and copy it onto your SD card. I recommend http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870518
Step 5 - Go into WM, navigate to the Android folder on the root of your SD, and click CLDCAD.exe (nothing will happen, this is normal) then click haret.exe
Step 6 - Celebrate.
If you need any help, feel free to message me.
No can do with any Virtual Machine on Macintosh?
Just use the newest official.They come with a newer radio.
If you cant flash with your mac extract the file and copy the nbh file as leoimg.nbh in the root of your SD.
Start the phone with vol down and let it flash.

Instead of a virtual machine (is it Parallels?) why not use BootCamp, then you have a full Windows os on your mac - and you can flash.
I'll see if I can borrow a mac again and test flashing via Parallels.
I would love to help you for free - you just have to spend a plane ticket from Denmark (with lots of snow and freezing temperature) ;-)

I'm utterly stunned... I thought a Mac could do everything... and do it better than Windows, faster than Windows, more stylishly than Windows and made the user more intelligent, more likable and better looking at the same time...
Oh well...

On the few times I have run Windows on a Mac (via Parallels and Bootcamp), it runs really well. It just goes to show that the main problems with Windows is that of the sloppy drivers for the hardware that the hardware manufacturors provide. Since Apple only have a couple of computers, therefore they can afford to take time to develop device drivers for Windows.
Just to clarify please and sorry to be asking lame questions...
1) Is this true? "The best most reliable Froyo ROM for the HD2 is the 2.2.1 Custom Nexus HD2-FRG83D V1.8 Froyo ROM. Very stable and everything works perfectly." Is that accurate?
2) Are you saying that I can do the entire install of everything on my Mac with an emulator (VMWare Fusion) as long as I do it the way you describe?
3) Are you saying that I should change the name of the nbh file to leoimg.nbh and then drop it into my SD card?
4) My HD2 came with Android on it but it runs slow and clunky and won't make calls, etc. Its basically unusable so I'm assuming it wasn't installed correctly. There is nothing on the SD card that I care about. Should I format the SD card before starting the new build? And is there anything on the Windows side that I should delete first before starting too?
Thanks again.

I would be willing to pay somebody for simple step by step clear non-nerdy instructions on how to install this stuff (Android, reformat SD card to FAT32, radio, etc., etc.) Seriously! You know, Step 1: Do this ya moron. Step 2: Now put this file named this in here idiot. Step 3: Now do this retard, etc.
Here are some more questions please...
1) What is the difference between a "sense" build and a "non-sense" build? Advantages, disadvantages?
2) When I plug the usb from my hd2 into my computer I don't see or recognize what is the SD card folder and I don't know where to install what I'm supposed to install. Here is what I see...
Removable Disk (E) > Application Data folder > HTC folder > databases folder > DocExp folder (with all this stuff in the DocExp folder: flintlock, postlist, postlist.baseB, record.baseA, termlist, termlist.baseB, iamflint, post.baseA, record, record.baseB, termlist.baseA)
...and next to the Application Data folder above there is also this: EncFiltLog.menc
and this is also in the HTC folder too...
ImageCache folder > DocExp folder (which is empty)
Thanks again.

OK, when you first start up your phone, and there are little red numbers and stuff down it the corner, look next to the letter 'R'
If it is X.XX.50.XXXX, then you're OK and don't need to change radio's and the process is very simple. (The X's can be any number, doesn't matter, as long as the 3rd set as shown are 50, not 51 or anything else.) So if it's 50, don't worry about the signed_ruu.nbh file or leoimg.nbh or flashing a radio. If it's not 50, you will need to change radio.
Next, when you plug the phone to your computer, the place where you find the 'Application Data' folder and the file 'EncFiltLog.menc', that is the root of your sd card. That is where the Android folder that you download and unzip will go.
So you will download the nicest looking build that you like the best, it will be in a .zip or .7z archive. You open the archive and take the 'Android' folder out and place it on your desktop. Then you drag it and drop it right next to your 'Application Data' folder. Don't put it in the 'Application Data' folder, just in the same place where that folder is at.
Removeable Disk E is your memory card, the root of the card simply means just on the card, not within any folders on the card, just on the card. That's where the Android folder goes, on the root of the card.
As far as Sense vs. No-Sense builds, Sense is maybe a little more user(noob) friendly, but it uses more of your phone's resources, so sometimes tends to lag (slow down, run slow) more than a no-sense build. For you, I would say try a Sense build first. Once you have installed one build, you will become more confident and really see how easy it is. Then you can experiment with different builds and see what is best for you.
After you have put the Android folder on the root of your sd card, alls there is left to do is to use the File Explorer on your phone to find the Android folder on your sd card, go inside that folder, first tap CLRCAD (it won't appear to do anything, but it actually enables sound in Android) (if your phone says the application is not from a trusted source,and asks do you want to continue, just click 'yes') and then tap Haret, a box will appear with a progress bar, and then Android will boot up (start).
The first time you run an Android build, it can take up to 15 minutes to start up. This is normal, just give it a while.
Then when it starts up, enter all the data it asks for (GMail, email addresses, etc. nothin major) and then when you have finished with that, and you end up at the phone's Android homescreen, hold the 'End Call' button, and choose 'reboot' and if there's no reboot option, just choose 'shut down' and then restart Android the same way as before. For some reason, rebooting after the first time like that actually helps Android to run more stable over the long term.
If you follow these instructions exactly as I have written them, you cannot fail. Now go, and enjoy Android
No need to pay me, just remember the 'thanks' button

I think you prove my point quite well... Macs are pretty much a single entity unto themselves. What Apple says, goes. Nothing else is acceptable. If you are prepared to be so limited then go ahead and stay with Apple products - they are for those who think they have imagination but are actually fooled into a "groupthink".
Huggs! Thank you very much for taking the time to explain that to me.
I installed Android and added my info (email address, etc.) and then restarted it like you said to do. Of course Windows loads first and when I tap the Android icon to launch Android it says: "The file Android cannot be opened. Either is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file." Since this phone had Android on it when I bought it last week (but it didn't work properly), I'm assuming that is the old Android launcher?? I did reformat the SD card via the Windows side of the phone before I installeded Android just now. Can you or anyone please tell me how I can get Android to launch now?
Thanks again.
Steve
UPDATE: I opened the Android folder and tapped CLRCAD and then HARET again and got the same error message as I explained above when I tap the Android icon. Also, and maybe this is normal since I'm still in Windows, but when I try to open any of the other files in the same folder (like INITRD, ROOTFS, etc., I get an error message that says: "There is no application associated with XXXXX. Run the application first, then open this file from within the application."
Another question please: The guy I bought this phone from was using T-Mobile but I'm going to use Simple Mobile. Does doing all the stuff I just did unlock this phone or do I still need to use an unlock code when I insert the sim card? (I will need to call Simple Mobile to activate the new Simple Mobile sim card in order to transfer my existing number over to this HD2)
Install this .cab in WinMo (install to device not sd)
Soft reset device (just fully off n then on, not factory reset)
try running Android again
Sounds like your phone just doesn't trust Haret, this should make it relax a little
let me know how it goes, it should work for ya
I have S2e install and set to push all my apps to SD-ext but some apps (poweramp) doesnt like that and messes up from time to time. I was wondering how to install that app or move that app to private. I have already moved it with android commander but i was wondering if there is another way because android comander is only windows and im moving to linux. Simple copy and paste doesnt work it disconnects the app from the system or something.
Ok, so I rooted the Huawei Ascend Y300, and with my new-found power i for some reason decided it was a good idea to delete the system UI...
So now the screen is just black, I can't access anything and it keeps coming up with "systemUI has stopped responding".
I tried downloading Huawei's official firmware from their website, and flashed the device, but whilst installing it said "update error" and wouldn't install it.
Any ideas on what I can do? Or have I broken it for good?
You have activated USB Debugging? If so, you need Android SDK, and the missing file (unpack the official firmware to find it), so you can copy it using adb (included in the Android SDK, tell me if you need more detailed info).

I had the USB Debugged, and just now i have sent nova launcher to the phone to get into it, but it's now telling me settings isn't installed and i cant access the task bar.
Also when i downloaded the pack from huawei, it just came with the file "UPDATE.APP"
Check if you can open the Update package using some program (winrar, 7zip), otherwise you'll need to search for the file.

Do you know if theres a way to completely reinstall android onto the phone?
System UI file
Hey
Sorry to confuse you lol oxymoronic happens to be talking about my phone anyways we think we have the problem nearly sorted but we now need a system UI APK file for the OS and we can find one any chance you know where to get one?
I hope this helps someone with a similar issue as the post is old.. I had deleted my xperia ui sometime back so each time the phone booted , it went to black with "Ui has stopped'. I could swipe down and go to settings.. Since i had formatted the phone before that there was no account linked to it.. I added my gmail account and sent myself a mail with nova launcher prime as an attachment.. As soon as the phone notified me of my mail, i downloaded the nova launcher apk and installed it.. Works fine now..
Hope this helps..
I rooted my asus zenfone 5 and by mistake I uninstalled my system ui it came like that the system ui is not responding so I switched it of and factory reseted the phone and when I switched it on I can see a black screen and I cannot change my phone'sv wallpaper I cannot see the task bar or the status bar or the notification bar and I also cannot see my recent apps. WHAT TO DO NOW ???
My phone doesnt show and home button recent button and the notification shade

I SOLVED IT *****! HERE'S HOW I DID [email protected]@@
I accidentally deleted com.android.systemui on my phone. Version KitKat 4.4.2.
STEP 1. HAVE AN EXACT DUPLICATE OF THE PHONE READY. HAVE THE SAME PHONE READY. LUCKILY I HAD ANOTHER PHONE OF THE SAME MODEL. GO TO A PHONE SHOP OR SOMETHING.
IT WILL HAVE THE SAME com.android.systemui .
STEP 2. INSTALL NOVA LAUNCHER OR SOME SORT OF LAUNCHER ON THE PHONE MISSING THE FILE, SO YOU CAN LOAD THE PHONE AND BE ABLE TO SEE IT!
STEP 3. INSTALL TITANIUM BACKUP ON BOTH PHONES. ROOT IT AND USB DEBUG IT BEFOREHAND.
STEP 4. ON THE BACK UP PHONE, OPEN UP TITANIUM BACKUP AND CLICK ON BACKUP/RESTORE ON THE UPPER TABS AND GO TO com.android.systemui. BACK THE **** UP THE FILE.
STEP 5. CONNECT IT TO THE COMPUTER, AND GO TO YOUR PHONE AND COPY WHAT'S INSIDE THE "TitaniumBackup" FOLDER.
STEP 6. CONNECT THE ****ED UP PHONE TO YOUR COMPUTER AND PASTE THE CONTENTS OF "TitaniumBackup" FOLDER (WHICH ARE com.android.systemui FILES) IN THE ****ED UP PHONE'S "TitanumBackup" FOLDER.
STEP 7. DISCONNECT EVERYTHING, EXIT OUT OF EVERYTHING, AND RESTART THE PHONES. GO TO YOUR ****ED UP PHONE, CLICK ON AND OPEN UP THE TITANIUM BACKUP, FIND com.android.systemui AND RESTORE IT!
STEP 8. ENJOY YOUR PHONE.
NOW YOU DON'T HAVE TO FORMAT IT , RESET IT, REINSTALL A FOREIGN ROM, OR DEBUG IT USING ADB OR SDK, AND ALL OTHER COMPLICATED **** FLOATING AROUND, RISKING LOSING ALL OF YOUR DATA. JUST GO A LITTLE CREATIVE.
IF IT WAS OF ANY HELP TO YOU OR YOU ACTUALLY RECOUPED YOUR DATA BECAUSE OF ME, AND YOUR PHONE DATA WAS OF ANY WORTH TO YOU, PROBABLY WORTH MORE THAN $100, PLEASE SEND ME SOME APPRECIATION PREFERRABLY OVER $100, TO MY PAYPAL. THE EMAIL ADDRESS IS [email protected]

Thanks for the saw er
but can u plc attach the apk of Samsung galaxy core 2 here.so I could be able to install. Please
Greetings everyone. I don’t know if this is right to post iOS telated question here, but since it is also Android related and is advance usage which I have experienced, so I think it is right...
I am an Android user (lg g3 for 2.5 years) and I wish to know more about difference with iPhone. For those advanced users in Android and ios please take a look.
1. Can I use only iTools，iFunBox to transfer files (not only pictures，music) instead of the need to use itunes?
2. Will Windows create .ips files in “My Documents” directory in C:\ when I connect iphone to my PC? Because iPod Touch 4 I used many years ago will do so.
3. Does iPhone have file explorer app, like ES File explorer, File Commander in Android, which I can manage files using the phone?
4. If I want to install .ipa directly in iPhone, must I jailbreak it first? I want to make it like install .apk inside Android.
5. Do iPhone have apps like Titanium Backup which I can backup individual app and restore it?
6. Do iPhone have something like TWRP Recovery, which I can backup the whole system completely, so no matter how I mess up, (whether in JB status or non-JB status)，I can restore exact the same status as the time I make the system backup?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone here who are Android users but own iphone after buying Android device? Please help... Thanks...
Im surprised that nobody here owns an android device and ios simultaneously...
