1. Download your desired build from vogue hero then place and rename it to system.sqsh on your SD card
2. Extract contents of basefiles from vogue-android to your sd card, along with haret.exe, and default.txt
3. These are all you should need. If you get a white screen after you run haret then you need to open default.txt and change your panel type or just download a different one from the code site with the panel type you need to change to.
Hope this helps..your phone enters a wonderful new world with Android

Android 2.0.1 installation problem, system.img?

Hello
i've downloaded Android 2.0.1, launched and installed. When i click con Android icon, it's starts but after finding rootfs it stops because it can't find "system.img".

Can someone help me please??

This SHOULD be posted in 'question' forum...not in the main forum....
Anyway, HOW did you install it? from Cab or from Zip?
Either way, you've not carried out one of the instructions... I'd recommend you try again and read every single little note on the installation instructions.
It's very easy to get excited and want to run Android quickly, and accidentally miss and installation step.
So, you need to explain WHICH version of Android you've installed, what device you have, what steps you THINK you took etc.
p.s.
If you installed using my zip, the number on common error is that people don't perform the mortscript setup / installer after unzipping (this is not necessary using the cab version).
Also some folks install to their device when they SHOULD install to their SD Card
Also, some folks extract the zip without the folder structure
All of these are common mistakes
Oh, and the other common issue is install OVER an existing installation... sometimes this can be done, sometimes it can't. If you want a simple life, never do this

delete evrything and re-try! this should help!

Ok Thanks and sorry for the position of this thread
With cab it can't run so i've downloaded only the zip and extracted into SD....
i can only on thing : "It's FANTASTIC" :O
Can i ask you one more thing ? i've see that i can install new apps and games from market, but how can i install new themes? i need another app?
At the end... how can i boot Android when i power up my Blackstone without passing throw WM6.5 ? Thanks!!

Market load 100% but not instal.

I found this problem in miui 3 and some others
the progress bar is halt at 100% but no installation.

You must unmount the SD-Card in the Settings - then Download you want in the Market and if the download finished and installed mount the SD-Card again

In this case where's did the app install on the phone memory ?
It won't go to the SD if I unmount it so where's the app going ?
I don't understand where's the app going with this unmount thing, please explain.

I´dont know why this happens - Im not a developer sorry. But this help to install this apps they let don´t install it with mounted SD Card.

A workaround not a complete fix but... When you get that problem again go to your download folder using any explorer application, like ES FILE EXPLORER, order the list by date added and you will find your appin the 1st position. Just install it- from there-. This fix work for the 100% downloaded application case but not installed

i think when you unmount the sd and install the apk it goes to the data.img in android folder, because this is acting as internal memory on android build... correct me if im wrong... but it works for me all the time and the aps are on sd...

Very good idea, I'll try this.
Do you know where is the download folder ?

The download folder is on the root of your SD-CARD

Thanks for the tip bro

[Q] how to make nand file when you have sd file

can anyone help me how to make nand file when i have sd file cuz i cannot install from my sd card i need to install directly
thanks

I am not sure that I understand what is your exact problem. But if I'm right and you can not install rom from SD card and want to install it directly from computer, maybe you should try to use DAF versions ?

yes but there is only one daf version and i want to know how to convert the sd version to daf version

That's not very easy. You'd have to edit the intrid.gz and and zImage and other things to make it work. More effort than it's worth. What ROM you looking for? Is it a .zip SD card file or and Android folder type?

To the point - the fact you're asking this question leads me to believe you're not skilled enough to know how to perform all of the changes this would require.
My suggestion is you forget about the SD version and make the move to the NAND Android instead.
The DAF version is a way for Windows to put Android on your phone through the built-in bootloader onto the NAND chip on your phone. SD android is a completely different structure and you'll never find an "SD DAF" Android.

could you perhaps extract the system folder from the CWM zip, then use mkyaffs2image to build a system.img and drop that in place of the original system.img from the DFT version? (and teh same with the boot folder boot.img too, i would assume)
Or is that make believe?

Extracting the system folder from CWM zip wont work. Its because during the zip installation the updater script is beeing called and it creates a lot of symlinks. So, if you just extract and convert, you will miss the whole bunch of symlinks (and permissions, etc..)

Really?
Never heard of DAF then?
We're limited to either SD or CWM install, are we?

Heh, dig deeper.
The op is limited to usb only so yea, in this case we are limited to daf only, and he finds there isn't as wide range of daf roms, hence the perfectly reasonable question.
which part of the original post can't you understand?

Ah I thought maybe something like that, but figured I'd ask anyway, for myself if nothing else.

I'll assume your lack of English skills is the reason you've totally mis-understood every single thing i've written in this thread.

If I've missunderstood, it can only mean that even though it didn't sound like it, you do agree with me, in which case appology accepted, lets say no more about it.

Question about booting android

Im trading my HD7 for a HD2 on monday and i was looking at roms, i was placed into an instant confusion. What does it me to put files into sdcard/andriod, do you have to make your own folder cause im pretty sure the sd card doesnt already have that folder and how do you go to haret.exe from the phone itself? the hd7 functions are not the same so maybe thats why i have no idea whats going on.
Please help
-Thank You

Here's a link to the procedure to add Android using SD builds. Once you do the required steps, Haret, etc. will be added and you will not need to manually add them yourself. If you do not need Windows, I would recommend the NAND ROMs using CWM. Using CWM, you will be able to quickly change ROMs. Also, I found that the NAND ROMs boot faster and use less battery in standby and actual use.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881958

Basically what that means is to create a folder on the root of your SD card called "Android" and copy the ROM files to it then on your phone go to WinMo's built-in file manager and open the Android folder and run CLRCAD (audio file) then Haret.exe and you'll boot in to Android.

thank you for the replies, but would you mind giving me a step by step instruction for the NAND boot too then if thats more recommended since i wont be using windows anymore.
