After searching high and low for a simple but eye-appealing stock quote and stock chart utility that I could use with ThrottleLauncher, I finally gave up and put one together myself. I call it ThrottleStocks.
I would like to acknowledge APBilbo for creating ThrottleLauncher. It ROCKS! I would like to also acknowledge the "PocketStock Center" work over on TreoCentral.com which helped give me the idea.
Release History:
V1.3 (28 Jan 09)
- changed chart source to www.marketwatch.com
- added week, month, 3month, 6month, 1year, and 2year stock charts
- added ability to edit stocks you've already entered into the database.
Important: If you are updating from a previous version then you will need to edit each of the stocks in your portfolio and change the chart stock symbol from the old Google one to the new www.marketwatch.com symbol.
V1.2 (26 Jan 09)
- fixed path to Mortscript and stock download scheduling
V1.1
- tried to improve error handling with stock downloading
Pre-Requistes:
1. You need ThrottleLauncher 0.9.6 installed (obviously)
2. The installation instructions below assume you are using APBilbo's TouchFlo3D theme that he distributes with ThrottleLauncher
3. You need Mortscript installed
4. You have the Segui fonts installed in your Windows\Font directory. If you don't you can find the fonts attached here. Unzip and place in windows\font directory.
To install:
1. Extract the attached zip file into your ThrottleLauncher\Setups\TouchFlo3D directory.
2. Start ThrottleConfig and Configure TouchFlo3D. On the new Stocks page choose whether you want the "Advanced" or "Basic" layout.
3. Enable the new "Stock" page in the TouchFlo3D config. Save and reload ThrottleLauncher
4. When ThrottleLauncher restarts you'll see a blank Stock page with buttons along the bottom. The first thing you'll need to do is click on the Settings button (it looks like a gear). This will open up the stocks config menu where you can perform the following;
a) Setup stock quote download schedule. Set the start and end time to download quotes, and the interval in minutes. Note that stocks will only be downloaded on week-days.
b) Enabled/Disable Stock Intra-Day chart downloads. If you are using the "Advanced" layout in ThrottleLauncher you'll need to Enable intra-day chart downloading. If you just want the basic layout you can leave chart downloading disabled and save on data downloading
c) Add stock. Here you'll be asked for the stock name, and the stock symbols. Note that currently it asks for both the stock symbol on Yahoo and on Google. The reason for this is that the quotes are downloaded from Yahoo while the charts are downloaded from Google and the stock symbols are not always the same on both sites. You'll be asked how many stocks you own and how much you paid for them...you can leave this blank as currently this data is not used.
d) Delete stock. Enter the stock symbol and it will delete it from the database.
e) Edit stock. Enter the stock symbol of the stock you want to edit...this will let you then modify its name and stock symbols.
f) Force chart refresh on exit. By default the 1month to 2 year stock charts are only downloaded once per day. If you select this option it will force an update of all the stock charts.
g) Exit. When you exit the setup it will automatically start a download of the stock data.
5. After the stock data has downloaded you will likely need to restart throttlelauncher in order for the stock page to display correctly.
Known Bugs/Issues:
This is a work in progress. The known issues are;
1. When stock charts are downloading there is a progress window that appears. I don't know yet how to get rid of this...but am looking into it.
2. ThrottleLauncher is currently unable to have a dynamic list. Currently the stocks.xml file is hardcoded to have 9 stocks displayed on the page. If you have more or less stocks in your portfolio you may want to edit the stocks.xml file and adjust the file accordingly. Look for the text in="1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9" and add or remove numbers accordingly. Note that there are two spots in the xml file where this is used. Hopefully this will get fixed in a future release of ThrottleLauncher
3. The stock tabs along the right side of the screen (in advanced layout) do not update their color correctly. This is a TL bug that is said to be fixed in the next TL release
4. Clicking on the stock chart is suppose to take you to the yahoo web-page for the stock. This doesn't work correctly at the moment.
Nice work, looks great!
my god this is great
there are people in this forum who're like Logitech. everything they do is impeccable.
one request tho.. and i hope it's doable.
is there a chance you could convert it to a regular today plugin so that people who're not using throttle launcher can use it?
This is awesome. great job!
Installed this and this causes my throttlelauncher not not load.

Sorry!
A couple things to check;
1) You are using the TouchFlo3D theme that APBilbo released with TL v0.9.6
2) Prior to enabling TL you ran TL config and configured TouchFlo3D (enable Stock Tab)
3) Try running the StockConfig.mscr mortscript before enabling TL... It can be found in TouchFlo3D\Throttle Stocks\mscr
Ant plans to port this to the VGA Iphone theme?? The homepage has room for two new programs...
Thanks
24 hr Review
Using Hermes 6.0 and TL 9.6 and no problems whatsoever , well done! It runs faster than my shares are falling and looks great (only used advanced version to date). Incidentally I did not install to TouchFlo3d but straight into my own custom theme yet it still worked ok except I lost my own custom footer icons, I can still see the xml so am placing them into black n blue tonite. Thanks again
I've updated the mortscripts to try and make the stock download process more tolerant of errors (particularily timeouts). See 1st post for update.
I still haven't figured out how to stop Mortscript from display the download progress window...
I've updated the theme and scripts to now include week, month, 3month, 6month, 1year, and 2year stock charts. See the first post for the new v1.3
Version 1.3
Working very well, a good improvement, thanks.
thanks to you Great Job man!!!
Your program looks good from description but I couldn't install it correctly since I am using Throttle Launcher 1.0 RC1 (the config.xml doesn't work). Any plans to upgrade to work for TL 1.0? I would love to try and get it working. Or perhaps you could guide me in tweaking so it will work for TL 1.0. I am newbie at this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you use the TouchFlo2d theme, the Stock tab is already there. You can download that theme in the ThrottleLauncher website.
stock quotes are real time or 20 min delay?
thanks

Stock quotes are from finance.yahoo.com
Stock charts are from www.marketwatch.com
These are not real-time sources. I'm not sure what the delay is.
great prog man! any further with hiding the update window? could it be changed to smaller graphic MB introduce a container for the update process? Keep up the good work man!
Hello everyone.
I know that there is already a big thread to discuss about Diamond2 clones, but I've decided to create my own thread, only focused on T5388++, to make it clean and organized as I like.
In this thread you'll find all my cooked ROMs. You should be able to get it from my T5388++ 4shared folder! You can bookmark this link. The password to access the folder is XDA-Developers.
Feel free to post your comments. I hope you like it!
EDIT: Don't you forget to donate for all my work. I've made some improvements over the official ROMs and you all know it. A lot of downloads of my ROMs have been made, but only a few people have donated. Remember that I do this in my spare time and a little contribution is highly appreciated.
Just for your information, in less than 2 months, there were more than 100 downloads of V1 ROM.
Available ROMs
Here you can find my custom made T5388++ ROMs. Please be sure to read this carefully in order to avoid unnecessary questions.
Removed from OEM:
*.mui files
ROMs download links:
Please check my 4shared folder link in the the first post.
Version History:
v1
Initial release, based on WM Build 23123 and OEM Drivers from official T5388++ C03.020.01 ROM
Includes HiSilicon Camera v1.1
HTC EzInput v2.1 (Build 2012.2024) and EzInput SIP Menu integrated
Microsoft default keyboard removed
Includes LockDevice to automatically lock the device after screen power off (more info)
WM LockScreen is enabled by default
Includes MortScript v4.3b15
Added a HTC Diamond2 sync icon (created by me) that appears in Windows Mobile Device Center
HTC GSensor SDK integrated (more info)
Disabled Start / OK softkeys and enabled text mode (more info)
v2
Based on WM Build 23144 and OEM Drivers from official T5388i C03.021.08 ROM
Removed HiMMITest and all it's modules

P.S.: My ROMs can’t be flashed using the SD flashing method because I have removed IPL, RAMInit, USBLoad and XLDR in order not to flash those parts every time and avoid bricks. You have to use IDT flasher, which for me is the best solution.
* Reserved for future use.
** Reserved for future use.
Finally i uploaded this ROM ... and I'm pleased at first sight.
This man just have done great work. It's fast and clean and with good bonuses! Ultra FAST
I hope that i'll be able to donate few $$ soon.
I have question to the cooker : How can i boost to maximum screen sensitivity ?
The only 1 problem is described below by another good user:
And don't remember to fully charge before you begin

BTW what is the latest original ENG ROM?
I've found a list at "3w.htc-topaz.co.cc/files/index.php?dir=ChineseClone_Files" and flashed to S650WM653_20100412_C0302001_english.rar. I think that this may be the latest one, isn't it? Proofed don't know newer. It works on 5388++
Here I go:
Flashed from C03.001.01 ENG to your WM23135-ROM
Result: Restart Loop
[1] Flashing finishes without error
[2] After flashing ROM the device restarts itself
[3] Removed USB Cable
[4] Blue "Touch Diamond 2" is displayed
[5] New animated Windows Mobile Welcome-Screen is displayed
[6] Display goes black and device restarts
[7] goto [4]
Flashed from C03.001.01 ENG to C03.020.01 ENG
Result: Flashing successfull
[1] Flashing finishes without error
[2] WM is working properly
Flashed from C03.020.01 ENG to your WM23135-ROM
Result: Flashing successfull - BUT!!!
[1] Flashing finishes without error
[2] Now WM is starting without restart

Thanks a lot!
Thanks a lot bgcngm for all your hard work already so fast. I will try your new ROM next week. Good that you removed the boot firmware so all of us have less chance that the phone will becomes a brick
I would like to see the extendir version if I don't ask too much the Manila2D package for DUAL SIM
Have fun with cooking.
Thank you Eer.
I will work on the Extendir ROM maybe this weekend.
Right now I only wanted to release a normal one so that everyone can install without a problem. I had it running in my T5388++ for 3 days and haven't experienced a single SoD. I'm now starting to believe that the SoD's reported by some users are due to hardware problems... Additionally Wifi, GPS, GSensor, Bluetooth, Phone1/2 are fully working.

That's NOT true! I had SOD on my T5388++ every day until i have flashed ROM from previous thread!
Well, if you are so sure about that, then you should have no SoD with my V1 ROM either. As I said, I have been running it for 4 days without experiencing any SoD.
First of all, thanks for your work. I think that SOD is a mixture of both, software and hardware, surely these are not all made mobile with the same components, causing problems of instability depending on models depending on hardware. I do not think the solution comes from a magical software, surely that one will be good for another will not.
These are all assumptions clear jejejeje.
I had just installed this ROM.
Common impression: it's VERY fast.

Today's item "Wireless" is still "squashed"

I guess that it will always be squashed. To be honest I haven't tried to fix it because I don't use the old Today anymore. As far as I understand, the plugin doesn't "work" properly with this WM build.
Just for curiosity, why do you enable the old Today screen? Don't you like Titanium?

I don't like new WM6.5-Style "Today" (IMHO it suxx). I'd prefer to use more "ascetic" WM6.1-Style, with several items(plugins) on it: Date/Time, Wireless, SPB Weather, SPB Pocket Plus or Resco Today Plugin

I flashed it using the SD method, successfully .
(Maybe IDT is better, but all of my machines use Win7 x64... which is not working with IDT. Flashing from Virtual XP under Win7 x64 was not option last time, so I was brave.)
ThoSi, can you tell me how were you able to flash the ROM via SD? When I tried it, I got a message telling that the file size was not correct. My microSD card is formatted as FAT32, but the size (4GB) may be the problem.
I'm also running Win7 x64 in my laptop, so I have to use XP Mode in order to flash via IDT. It fails a lot of times, that's why I choose to remove unneeded parts from the ROM.

I have Win7x64. I'm using VMware with WinXP to run IDT without any problems.

Kingston micro-SDHC, 4 GB ,FAT32
Phone Off, Turn on with Volume Down button + Power button, then choose yes to upgrade. The ROM was renamed to K3img.bin in the root of SD card.
(I never had error with XP Mode (although sometimes hard to attach USB device to VirtualXP), just i had to lend one of my 2GB RAM, so I have low memory now - not running VXP)

I believe it has nothing to do with this build, it will look 'squashed' on all VGA and WVGA devices? At least, I had the same sort of issues on my Touch HD when using plugin's that did were not specifically programmed to also support VGA.

great job!
Maybe also integrate AAreset? I find Windows Mobile behaves a lot better with a daily scheduled reset (I have it at 06h30). I think it may be a good habit for all WM devices. Dump the exe's in /windows and a link in the system menu.
But why remove MS keyboard? Could you not just make it non-default?
PS: did you not also had MMS integrated before?
I had a bit of improvement with touch screen sensitivity with following adjustments:
I've found this in another thread but dll is the same so.. i think there is kind of
improvement - test and reply
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
Here i added two lines:
"TouchSensitivity"=dword:8 ; Touch screen sensitivity, max sens. = 1,
min sens. = 63 - of course 1
"PressureFilter"=dword:0 ; 0 - disable Pressure Treshold Filter, 1 -
enable Pressure Treshold Filter - of course 0
I didn't tested other values as long as i sensed improvement, you could.
I also checked this:
HKLM\system\GWE\touch\filter and change the value to 0. Wait 25sec and restart.

Why this threadI've been reading a lot lately, but still haven't found an updated thread for basic questions, or just a welcome stop-by.
I'd add I'm not a cook neither a developer, but came to understand a few things by myself that weren't precisely told
(A common flaw of computer advices : Do this to solve that - You don't need to know how or why)
This brings pros, as I'll be more oriented towards the end users, but cons as I'll sometimes lack the necessary skills to go further. As a whole, I do believe this may still help understand the basics, and help get rid of a few misunderstandings. This is why there'll be a lot of "seems" and "mays" but in the end, most of the "basic" data here is accurate, and i'll get better as time goes by.
My current hardware and software

However, this post covers Android as a whole, and lots may apply to other devices, be it with or without Haret "emulation"
Legend:

Simple Explanation
->
A parameter or file you may change/trigger in order to enhance/solve problems/your Android build (yes, this works both ways)
[file]
An actual Windows Mobile/Windows XP/Seven file. You can see them using a SD Card reader/usb cable/etc
root/
This is Android C:\ drive
A file or directory present/visible ONLY when under Android on the phone.
/
Same as root/, but with some laziness included
(exe)
Means this is a Windows XP/7 Program
(apk)
Means....!
A. Android itself
There are a few things you need to know on android on HD2.
What an Android build is made of :
- A "sound enabler" [CLRCAD.exe],
- An Android Bootloader for WM6 [HARET.exe],
- A startup command [startup.txt], Touch-screen Calibration Instructions [ts-calibration], a boot logo [initrd.gz]
- An Android Kernel [zImage],
- An Android Root Filesystem [rootfs.img]
- A ROM image [system.ext2]
- A data container [data.img]: This holds your texts, contacts and everything else. Sometimes provided BLANK by some chefs to avoid high boot times (cf Updating Android)
All of these should be on the "Android" folder of your SD card.
Note : For an easy launch of your Android, I recommend Exceller Multiple Boot Loader (link here), that you can set on autoboot (or not)
When you launch Android via EBL on WM6:
- [CLRCAD] enables sound
- [Haret] is launched, then totally closes Windows Mobile (all resources shut down)
- Kernel+Drivers, ROM and Data are loaded
What to learn about this:
- There are hardware/software interactions happening when Haret "closes" WM6 and it's own drivers take place.
-> It may be useful to activate "Airplane mode" in Windows to avoid pieces of the radio chip to stay indefinitely on without Android being able to shut them off (cf Power consumption problems)
-> Full charging may not be achieved under Android, this because of Android drivers not being able to correctly write the battery status (yet). To get to 100%, charge when the phone is off or under WM6 (although i do manage to have a 100% under Android under certain circumstances)
-> It may as well be useful to launch Android with Keypad lights on in order to ensure that lights are working properly. This depends on hardware and software, and varies from people to people.
->Flashing a radio under WM6 has the same impact over Android, as the radio chip instructions are shared between Android and WM6 (cf Robo Voice)
->The WM6 ROM used, while seemingly not worthy of attention (as it is "shut down" by Haret), seems to handle some important work when closing itself or interacting with the hardware. That's why changing from "Stock rom" to a "custom one" may resolve a few problems too.
B. Android's Internals
First, at the current state of development, Android is ENTIRELY run through the SD card.
-> Class 2 cards have been reported to being a source of annoyance, still being able to correctly run Android, but slowing a lot of problems. T-MO USA users have different experiences with the bundled microSD card provided. However, i'd advise using AT LEAST a Class 4 microSD, with correct formating.
- File explorers under Android are reporting a "root/" directory with several files and folders, and a "root/sdcard" folder. In fact, the [data.img] of the SDcard IS (some part of) the "root/" (unzipped for you to see) whereas the SDcard is...the SDcard. That's why removing the SDcard with android running may freeze the whole file-system.
- The actual NAND work is approximately for the devs to put the [rootfs.img and system.ext2] inside the phone flash, to ensure that Android still runs when removing the Sdcard. The problem is : the [data.img], that holds Android's data, may still be on the SDcard (as EU HD2 only have 512mo of ROM, and Android already takes 300 just for booting)...To be continued.
Kernel, Libraries, Modules, File-system, and the like...
Ok, I know little about them, as I'm not a developer or a cook, but here are the basics
Kernel bundles
-> [zImage] : It is the main kernel file, it seems to contain the primary drivers using for controlling the phone. You can update this file by downloading a "Kernel" like Hastarin 7.6, by powering the phone in WM6, and replacing the [zImage,Haret,initrd.gz] in the Android folder of the SDCard
- [Initrd.gz] seems to be the logo launched when Haret is loading Android (needs confirmation)
- [rootfs.img] : It handles the basic file-system
Android Builds Bundles (further explanation)
- [system.ext2] : It contains the Android files described there-under, also provided in a build
Modules
Located in /system/lib/modules, they are here to handle the Bluetooth and Wifi. They sometimes need to be replaced manually (aka "pushed" via the shell/terminal)
Libraries
Located in /system/lib/ or /system/lib/hw, they handle other elements, like lights and so on. They can also be uploaded manually when needed.
File-system Organisation
- root/acct, root/bin, root/cache, root/config, root/dbgfs, root/sbin, root/dev, root/mnt, root/proc, root/sys, root/tmp seems to contain files used for Android. Never went there.
- root/data/etc and root/data/system holds some system files. Don't mess!
- root/data/app/ is the main location for user installed apps (.apk)
-> root/data/data/ is the location for each apps' storage (like some sort of registry), like scores for games, etc
-> root/data/data/ seems to also be the place where the "hosts" file of android is located (The other ones across the file-system are usually empty ones)
- root/system/app/ is the main location for cooked (pre-installed) apps. Removal is at your own risk!
-> root/system holds the build.prop file, responsible for some of the phone behavior. This folder seems to be physically hosted in Android's [system.ext2] file, and is dependent of the chef providing it. You can configure alternate DNS in this file (BACKUP first).
Kernels' flavors (MichyPrima Kernel Thread)(Hastarin Kernel Thread)
- There are two branches : EVO and Nexus1. They mean different libraries, drivers and modules. Nexus1 is the most stable, but the least capable. EVO, although less stable, is the most able, and thus has been selected to be at the base of the NAND development.
- There are two data approaches : RMNET and PPP. Both have their pro's and con's: Speed(PPP) vs Stability(RMNET). (Learn more here)
- There are several kernel chefs, and several available tweaks for each branch.
- There are several capabilities, such as Overclocking or Not, etc. Usually, each Kernel chef delivers its Kernel with or without these additions. Find the one that suits you best.
To summarize / To Update Android :
- A downloaded "Build" provides a FULL working Android system, you need NOTHING ELSE
- A downloaded "Kernel" provides : An updated [Haret, initrd.gz, zImage] that you just "paste" over an existing Android "Build" and sometimes updated "Modules/Libraries" that you need to manually push
->Note : There seems to be a workaround, like a [root] folder, containing many sub-folders, that is placed in the [Android] folder. The files included in this [root] folder seems to be copied by Haret into the root/ folder of Android on boot. That is why, when you "update" an entire "build", chefs ask that you deleted everything on your [Android] folder, to ensure nothing from an old "build" or "Kernel" will be copied to the new "build" upon booting Haret.
->Note on updating "Builds" : I personally erase everything but the [data.img] on my android folder, then unzip the content of a new "build". WARNING : Some chefs include [data.img] in their "builds", so be sure to CHECK to avoid an override!
How to choose a build/a kernel:
- Check what are your needs : Sense implementation, Basic but blazing Android, HTC Sense.com services.... Each come with a price
- Again, choose what do you want from your phone, cutting-edge but unstable or basic but sure...(You may have both )
-> I personally don't recommend going out of binded paths. Each chef, in each build, uses a specific Kernel dev, and adapts its ROMS to it. I chose to only update a similar Kernel, when the cook or chef just didn't have the time to implement it yet (usually, unless Kernels are really faulty, new ones come with new builds, so just wait for a wholesome upgrade)
C. Basic Android Tools (Survival Starter Kit)Some tweaks will require "Super-User Access" or stuff like that. Again, here are the basics.
First, "Droid Explorer" (exe).
No, don't look on the market, it's a WINDOWS XP/7 PROGRAM.
(Why the capitals? For the story, a few months ago, it took me HOURS to figure that, as there is also a "Droid Explorer" on the market, free as well. When you're told, "Go into ADB mode with Droid explorer and push that file in the rootlib" you're starting to think you took the wrong spaceship )
-> ADB Mode : Short for "Android Debugger Mode". You can switch this in "Parameters/Application/Development, Check the USB Debug). You need to enable ADB mode to use Droid Explorer.
- Droid Explorer basics : If already on ADB, click on "Connect device" at the right corner, and select the only device shown.
- Warning : I've personally got increasing problems accessing/pushing files to Android using Droid Explorer. I'm currently using the "root folder update" method. (Handle with caution!)
Other useful programs (most are free, some very useful may not, and some are included in builds):
System Apps
- Root explorer (Apk) : A useful Android program, to access files currently not available trough ES Filexplorer or Astro, although some other file explorers may possibly retrieve SU privileges to access the entire file-system. "root/data" is a typical folder not accessible with "traditional" file explorers.
- Super-User (apk): It's an Android Program, provided with your build. It enables programs to access some privileged code/areas...(To investigate)
- Terminal Emulator (apk) : It's Android's cmd.exe, used to input commands like in DOS-Mode
Usually Bundled Apps
- Astro (apk): Beautiful File Explorer
- Drocap2 (apk): Screenshot app. Push start, and shake HARD
- DSP manager (apk): Manages that crackling speaker bad bass rendition
Must-have Apps
- Adfree (apk) : Similar to winhelp2002 for windows, this block some ads while on the Internet. Doesn't block GoogleAds (developers need to survive through free apps too!)
- BatteryLevel (apk): Inputs a permanent notification, which shows the battery percentage. Lightweight and useful, albeit not always properly refreshed
- DroidWall (apk): The only? firewall for Android. Need Busybox (cf TitaniumBackup) in order to function properly. Warning : May block genuine apps from accessing Internet. And no, your cracked apps won't be prevented from calling "home", as license verification goes through the Android system itself.
- GPS Status (apk) : Handles the A-GPS, compass and other stuff
- SetCPU (apk+widget) : This is used to tweak the CPU. (see Hastarin's recommendations, a shame I can't export my settings). Install the apk, then place a widget in order for it to work (mandatory? need to investigate...)
- Shazam (apk)
- SMS Popup (apk) : Great program, pops sms and enables quick management. SMS notifications have to be handled solely by either the program, or the system. Disable one or the other accordingly.
- Startup Cleaner Program (apk) : Manages starting programs. Handle with care.
- SwitchPro (apk+widget) : Almost similar to Cookie's switches for WM6. Can't live without. Weird implementation though.
- Taskiller (apk+widget) : Selective task killer. Has been reported to cause wake-up lag when set on "autokill on sleep" (and I do, but use it on other occasions)
- TeslaLED (apk) : Ke$ha's favorite tool for impromptu parties!
- CurrentWidget (widget) : report power consumption. Helps reporting battery drain problems (I got 3ma on standby ). Don't set to "update" on less than 1 minute. Use it to log when on sleep, then check power consumption on standby.
- DolphinBrowserHD (apk) : Very configurable, personal choice.
Very Nice Addition
- Swype (apk) : Provided on the forum, or sometimes implemented on Builds, can't live without either.
Is there a developer in the room?- Taintdroid (needs implementation/compiling?)
Unusual stuff coming from me, but this program recently came to my attention. It detects every ID/IMEI/etc Internet leakage and reports to the user. It visibly need some kind of integration into the kernel in order to work. With a firewalling program, we could prevent our phones from spying hard on us (I have a dream, i know ^^)
>>>Hastarin, MichyPrima, ElBartoMe and the others, anyone there? <<<
Thanks for all the devs, chefs and forum users, i'll link when available and when free

Main Problems and Solutions (compilation)Some filenames aren't correct, i'll check that later
(One general thread)
Battery Drain (One thread there) (Another Thread here)
May be the main problem out there, although Touchscreen freezes are competing for #1 as well
- Try tweaking WM6 power management (Thread here)
- Use CurrentWidget log mode to verify
- Remove root/data/system/batterystats.bin
- Try the Airplane mode in WM6. For daily Android users, set to airplane, then switch the phone off and on without a reboot app. The airplane mode should stay indefinitely on. For constant switchers, launch haret after airplane mode. On next reboot, WM6 shouldn't have airplane mode on.
- Try checking the "lightslib.q8sk"(?) file/problem. Try replacing it with the newer "lights.htcleo.so" provided on the forums
- Try flashing a different radio or WM ROM (test radio first of course)
- Try booting Haret with the keys' lights on
Robo Voice
This issue seems to be hardware+software related. AKA It is different for everybody, and same build+rom+kernel may produce different results on similar phones.
- Current state of resolution is : FLASH RADIO and CHANGE WM ROM ^^
PPP Stuttering (no Edge/HSPA icon warnings)
- Try the libhtc_ril_wrapper.so fix provided by noellenchris (Another thread there)
- Try updating your kernel
- Try removing Taskiller Autokill feature (not the kill on sleep feature)
PPP Freezes (icon going on and off, etc)
- Try tweaking the build.prop (GSM or WCDMA prefered via "ro.telephony.default_network=" parameter ) (See "Tweaks" Section)
- Try changing the DNS inside "root/system/build.prop" (Link of your mobile provider DNS here)
- Try tweaking the APN in "root/system/etc/apns-conf.xml"

HOW TO REQUEST FOR HELP ON XDAAgain, personal point of view here, but there are a lot of "unsaid" things around there....
1. Nothing more annoying than a "noob" (and we've ALL been through there, but...) that didn't (at least) try looking for himself.
-> Use wisely the "Search on this thread" button. It's WORKING. Tip: If you're not on a specific thread, but rather in the Development of General sub-forum, tick the "Post" button to avoid going through entire threads for a single answer.
2. Do remember: you're not alone.
-> DON'T BE RUDE, BE POLITE, SAY HI, THANK PEOPLE, we all have to be patient. It's XDA Community. Plus, some threads are moving real fast, and may have flooded your question. Ask again, and just don't complain!
-> EDIT YOUR SIGNATURE. Insert your ROM, Radio, Phone model, etc etc etc. Most common answer to noob problems: "WHAT'S YOUR ROM"
->Try asking GOOD QUESTIONS, starting with (Hi!) "I've been looking for this, found this, understood this, but need help about that" (Thanks) and you'll see how people will be more inclined to answer ^^
Flash a WM6 ROM (compatible with Android)> Need-to-Know : HSPL, RUU, WM6 Roms
1. Install the HSPL
- A HSPL is needed in order to "flash" custom roms, as well as new radios, and then Android Builds. Most up-to-date HSPL is HSPL 3 (found here).
- Plug your WM6 phone to your computer using the USB cable provided on activesync mode (SDCard Flash method here)
- Launch the "Mobile Manager" in Vista/Seven, or wait for activesync in Windows XP, and establish a connection (Connection failure : Look here)
- Launch "HSPL3_PKG.exe", and follow the instructions
- Reboot phone
2. Download and Install a WM6 ROM
- Hint: Choose and download a recent WM6 rom (advices here)
-> Your phone needs its battery to be charged at a minimum of 50%, else flashing won't occur
- Again, plug your phone in USB-Activesync mode
- Unzip the archive, and launch "CustomRUU.exe" ("ruu_signed.nbh" is the WM6 rom file)
Flash a new Radio (under WM6 only)- Choose a recent radio, minimum required is 2.08, 2.12 recommended (radio thread here)
- Again, plug your phone in USB-Activesync mode
- Sometimes, only the radio (ruu_signed.nbh) is provided in zip files. "Pick" the "custom_ruu.ex"e of a WM6 ROM, and copy it in the unzipped radio folder, it'll work just as well.
- Launch and follow the instructions
Install Android on a SD Card
Update an Android Build (with a new build)
Update an Android Build (with a new kernel)
Yes, I did find this useful - Thank-you !

There are a few things you need to know on android on HD2.

- An Android for Windows Mobile emulator (HARET),

HaRET is not an emulator. It is a Linux bootloader.
A Really good guide, actually explains quite a lot about the filesystem that I wasn't aware of. Well written and a great idea.

Thanks, updated!
Feel free to submit ideas or whatever!
Wow, good idea on putting it all in one thread, few things, however:
As another poster suggested, haret is not an emulator (handheld reverse engineering tool)
As far as the filesystems: rootfs.img is the linux rootfile system, startup.txt are commandline arguments for the linux startup, system.ex2 is the root android filesystem, etc. So to avoid confusion, think of it this way: system.ex2 would be closer to the android "rom image", where as rootfs, startup.txt, ts-calibration, and initrd are for the linux kernel side, so you can boot up android. (Very oversimplified I know, just trying to help)
When you install a linux box, typically it's installed on more than one partition (keeping the /home directory on a seperate one is always good practice, and some people even keep /var on a seperate one for log files as well.) data.img and system.ex2 would be like different partitions of the android filesystem. When you buy a phone that isn't "rooted", it means you don't have access to the root file system, aka in this case, system.ex2.
*edit* oops you already saw the thing about the haret. Didn't notice.
You may also want to add that for where apps are located after install, /data/app is for user installed apps, /system/app are for pre-loaded apps that are installed with the system. If you wanted to remove any app that came with the system (like the amazonmp3, for example), you'd delete it out of there. (Delete files out of the system/app at your own risk, don't delete it if you don't know what it is)
Added HSPA Values and DNS and APN files location. Enjoy
This is a very nice guide. Has a lot of the necessary stuff that the other guides leave out.
Good job. Maybe I will just link folks to this guide in the future instead of directly answering them. (probably just do both though - I was pretty noob at one point)
Oh, and .apk = Android Package (android apps are .apk / android package file)
Added 5mpx Fix, hope the HD Roms will have camera too
- Try the Airplane mode in WM6. For daily Android users, set to airplane, then switch the phone off and on without a reboot app. The airplane mode should stay indefinitely on. For constant switchers, launch haret after airplane mode. On next reboot, WM6 shouldn't have airplane mode on.

For my phone, turning on Airplane mode in WM6. then booting into Android with Haret without restarting, then coming back to WM6...it is still in Airplane mode.
Great Job man...keep this thread up to date...We appreaciate your hardwork....thanks a lot...

Damn I spent a lot of time trying to figure this one, as I'm not using WinMo anymore. Are you using Cookie HomeTab's switch? Or directly in the Com Manager?
>I remember using Cookie Switch didn't stay at next reboot
- BTW, maybe it has to do with your launcher, or even the rom

Thanks for reporting
Added "How to post a Good Question", personal joke of the day, but REAL INFO
A question and a few suggested tools-
First, where in the Android file structure are the logs stored?
Second, another way to access the phone from Windows, one I use for working on Linux systems-
1) install QuickSSHd from the market. It will open an SSH (secure) tunnel into the phone
2) Install on your windows system Winscp and Putty (both Windows XP and up applications and both free. Winscp allows you to transfer files to and from the phone and Putty gives you a root shell and your desktop/notebook keyboard.
While these tools are not real simple, if you have an understanding of basic Linux and get this far you can then log into the phone over your home WiFi network with full root access and get into a lot of trouble if you aren't careful. It also seems more stable than Droid explorer.
Excuse this potentially silly question...
How do you quit Android? I'm running the Runnymede/Rhyme/Bliss one and long holding power doesnt do anything.
Is it just a battery pull?
Bought this game for my Nexus S. Trying to put it on my NC. Wouldn't install. Has anyone gotten this working yet?
Don't believe so. You may want to follow the thread about gameloft games, we've been able to get some working with hacked .apks, some with IMEI patches. I believe someone got Asphalt 5 working.
I can't even buy it from the market, cause it says my device is not compatible. Anyway around this?
I have this game on the Xoom and just bought it via market.android, I'll see if I can get it to run on the NC without an IMEI patch.
However, I will say this, the Need for Speed games are much better. I played Asphalt 6 on the Xoom for about 20 min and found it boring. It doesn't capture me like the NFS series. Again, your mileage will vary. I will post if I can get the bought version to DL and run using Chainfire.
The apk for samsung galaxy s version 3.2.2 works great with phiremod 7.1 for me without the need for chainfire.
FYI, I bought it during the recent sale and I installed and played this last night. I installed Chainfire first, so I'm not sure if that is needed or not. The only problem is the camera angles were all like pointed up over the car, so I'm not sure if it's the apk or maybe I need to adjust the DPI (on the stock 160 now).

I bought for .10 in recent sale as well and was unable to install on nook color from market. I then installed it as an apk with chainfire pro v3.3 and qualcomm plugin and it force closes. Any ideas? Thanks.
On a nook color CM7 stable 1200.
Which version .apk did you get? That matters much more than the version of CF3D.
The following versions are known to work on the NC:
Asphalt 6 1.0.4 xperia arc version (works with CF3d-qualcomm), 3.2.2 Galaxy S
I believe I had Chainfire setup to use the Nvidia plugin at the time. I didn't think to try any others. I believe I was using something like 3.1.9 for the Asphalt version (I would have to double check to be sure).
You should find the 3.2.2 version. You won't need chainfire at all to get it up and running (set it to powerVR if you already have it installed).

Tried Asphalt 6 1.0.4 xperia arc version with CF3d-qualcomm which force closed
and 3.1.2 Galaxy s which played the intro movie and nothing else. Is there a 3.2.2?
Edit - again, I just tried to install 1.0.4 xperia and opened the app and i got - this app is not compatible with this device.
Purchased it for .10, it installs fine on Nook and phone, but will not run on either device.
Phone is rooted Moto Triumph.
This is one that I really wanted to try out!
The market version runs perfectly on my Nook (I have since uninstalled the 3.2.2 since now I can use an officially supported version. I have build.prop set to galaxy tab, IMEI from my serial # (both using DizzyDen's patch) and my LCD density set to 160 (set LCD for root).

Could you please share your build.prop?
Or you can use the Nexus S build.prop.
GT-I9023 works for me.
i think its
ro.product.device
ro.product.model
ro.device.somethinghere. forgot.
Make these changes:
ro.build.user=cowork03
ro.build.host=Sprint5
ro.product.model=SPH-P100
ro.product.brand=sprint
ro.product.name=SPH-P100
ro.product.device=SPH-P100
ro.product.board=SPH-P100
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion:2.3.6/GRK39F/189904:user/release-keys
to the build.prop file in /system/ with either root explorer's text editor or ES file explorer in order to see the apps in the market. Sorry for not mentioning the .fingerprint before, the ROM i'm on already changed it so I didn't realize that it was needed.
Or if you have CM7 you can use these DizzyDen's IMEI generator settings:
Device_Manufacturer = Samsung
; If blank then the program will not edit build.prop
; If anything other than blank the program will edit build.prop to include manufacturer
Manufacturer_Device = SPH-P100
; If blank then the program will not include device in build.prop edit
; IF anything other than blank the program will include device in build.prop edit
; NOTE: No build.prop edit will occur if Device_Manufacturer is blank
Device_Model = SPH-P100
; If blank then the program will not include model in build.prop edit
; IF anything other than blank the program will include model in build.prop edit
; NOTE: No build.prop edit will occur if Device_Manufacturer is blank
This is how it reads in my !IMEIme.ini (part of the DizzyDen patch). This only works on CM7(since it already has the ro.build.fingerprint edits).
Thank you gallahad2000! Damn this game is addictive!
[and the graphics are seamless. Amazing performance]
First I feel the potential problems with the English, still need a little support from google translator.
I present my rom in version 5.1 (previous versions are in the Spanish forum I frequent There he will see only good things about it http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?p=2779093#post2779093 )

Instalation
Very simple.
Download the zip for installation and place it on your phone.
We went into recovery (combo well with vol + Home button and power or some kind of external app if you have)
I am in favor of making all wipes when installing something new, to make the installation cleaner and avoid mistakes, but each to do what you want. (Even so check the installation notes for each rom to see if any were special)
To do this, wipe data / factory reset, wipe wipe dalvikcache cache and advanced.
And finally install the zip: install zip form sdcard / choose zip / and choose the zip
Reboot and ready
Onset is usually somewhat slower, since it is completely normal at the first boot android creates many files and that takes time.
Make lite Instalation
When CarbonOcean to flash (from v5.0) rom is full, ie it has each and every one of the standard apps, to lighten the rom and improve performance, we can make lite rom for it in / sdcard MikiMod_CO find a folder called within two zip you can find them.
DoLiteNormal.zip
For those who are here from the beginning, it would be like the normal versions of my old roms. For those new to flash this zip recovery are automatically deleted from the trash apps that comes with the phone as standard. Flasar this zip will get improved battery life and performance, and reduced application list.
I recommend this zip to flash people android newcomer to the world.
DoLite_editar_al_gusto.zip
So that, in this case we do 100% custom installation. and choose which apps we want and which not. To do this:
If we do from the PC is faster and better, but can be done from the mobile also but from the best cell phone only people who know how to do ...
Open the zip file with Winrar (open OJO not unzip or extract or anything) and we will META-INF/com/google/android / and open it with notepad + + (eye NOTEPAD + + is not worth the typical Windows notepad, if you have not look on Google's free) updater-script file. And something like that but it will be longer:
delete("/system/app/BuddiesNow.apk");
delete("/system/app/Days.apk");
delete("/system/app/DigitalClock.apk");
For it is as easy as deleting the lines of the apps you wish to keep. For example:
Days.apk need the app and do not want to delete. then you go to file and borrais this.
delete ("/ system / app / Days.apk");
so that looks like this:
delete ("/ system / app / AccuWeatherDaemonService.apk");
delete ("/ system / app / AnalogClock.apk");
delete ("/ system / app / BuddiesNow.apk");
delete ("/ system / app / DigitalClock.apk");
delete ("/ system / app / Dlna.apk");
And so with all the apps you wish to keep, if you leave this file flaseais unedited and will erase all apps not required for basic operation of the phone, the only application that is a little more delicate is the mtpaplication, which is for connect via USB (I think the kies). the rest you can delete without problems.
Once you finish editing the file you give it to the floppy. and saved. shut the notepad + + and the win rar will give you a message telling you if you want to update the file inside the zip, you say yes and go.
Will copy the zip to a folder so you can use yours and mikimods future and even in other roms then just go to recovery and to flash the zip file, or from the flash app update.zip CWM seek and accept it.
Themes
You can install any universal theme in the beginning, though it might not work as well as they should, this problem would be only the subject and not mine.
Here I will put the CarbonBlue of @ rastafary (best blue theme of the moment) a little touched up with the aesthetics of my rom. 100% functional on any version CarbonOcean [KI3]

I've tried DoLiteNormal.zip but nothing happens what's wrong??

If you have to flash the zip dolitenormal.zip in cwm, you have less apps. Check it and tell me if it is not.
Very good rom, Spain is diferent...thank you mikisb1.
vey nice rom mate , lots of mods and a great deisgn
Yes exactly what's expected but nothing changes... I'll try again..

it's ok now..
Let me see how is this rom... i came from androidmeda thas is really really good (battery life it's wonderful as less dpi font ) but your rom it's seems nice...
Regards
Rated as exellent.
Do you recommend "copy all system data" with titanium when updating to 5.1 from 3.5?
or just copy apps to avoid system bugs?
I'm an unconditional fan since version 1.0 of your ROM.
I think it's the best ROM for SGS2 at this moment, lesser battery drain and fast, really fast.
Keep working mikisb! See you here and at HTCMania!
Thanks mikisb for your job. I've got all your rom and all of them are simplily faster and no problems.
Salu2!!!
