FYI...
Looks like some progress has been made. I was just browsing around and curious as to whether anybody was still working on porting Linux to the Wizard. Sure enough some activity started end of last year and you can actually run a very limited version of linux from inside of wm. Here is the link, http://sourceforge.net/projects/linwizard/ I wish I had the skills to participate but I will be following their progress. Maybe I can be a help finding bugs.
cool i wish i could help in that project also but since i cant i can only volunteer my wizard as a lab rat
**double post sorry**
It's really basic at this point. no touch screen. no screen rotation. I've run it on mine. Follow the readme, expand the zip to a folder, then expand the initrd.bz2 into the same folder. copy that folder to your SD and run the .exe from inside wm.
I can't wait. I have a spare wizard and I'll definately be hacking away on that one.
hi guys!
i also tryed to get linwizard working on my htc qtek 9100 (wizard)
and really, it works! =]
i took the gizard package:
http://tinderbox.x86.dev.gentoo.org/embedded/linwizard/gizard-20080602.tar.bz2
a gentoo distri
just login in with the the user root (no password) and type the command "startx"
now the X server and the window manager starts.
also the touchscreen is working!
btw:
if you connect your ppc with your computer (usb) you can connect to the the device over telnet (not ssh - you have to set the ip on your computer first)
i'm running it with haret 0.5.1
and my config looks like this:
Code:
set MTYPE 1229
set KERNEL "zImage"
set INITRD "initrd"
set CMDLINE "root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=20504 init=/linuxrc panic=30 video=omapfb:accel console=tty0"
bootlinux
all the files in the gizard package are stored in the root directory of my storage card!

[sorry for my english - i am from austria =)]
Well im downloading it now lets see what this sucker can do. Thanks for the heads up!
How do u know the touchscreen is working???
Hades,
i did what u said till the startx.. now i have 'Login' window with a ~$ prompt and clock like thing on the upper left hand corner. after this what ?? where are the apps? and my touchscreen does not work. i just have tht 2 windows and i cannot move them around or anything ... I am totally a noob in Linux. i had to ask my friend for even the ls command.
If u get time can u please help me out...
** I take all that back.. i had the wrong image file in the folder ... the things that does not work for me right now is
1. i cannot set the date and time
2. cannot change the theme through 'look and feel'
The mileage calculator is somthing.
as you can see, this version is just the alpha version of linwizard/gizard ... the problem is that all the software have to be compiled for the arm (omap850) processor architecture ... this can take a while, but when we have a look to the xanadux project, it works!
for example, for the gsm-modul, they took the same driver as the artemis has!
yesterday i read a little bit about the wifi-driver for the wizard, it's the TCS3500 and it's precompilerd for the mips-architecture (the openwrt project is using the same - [vlynq])
Now, it's the problem to cross-compiler the sourcecode to the arm-architecture
it's a hard work, but i think they will get it working
for me, i want to have a look to the python workaround and write some nice, small, useful programs
greets hades00
[sorry for my english - i am from austria =) - i only wite/speak broken english]
Personally, I don't think this would be worth it for me until you get the power button/power management working and GSM completely working.
But if I had a choice between windows and linux, and both would let me still have a functional phone (mustn't forget that this is the primary purpose of getting the device), you'd bet I'd go with linux in a heartbeat.
good job
i works fine on my HTC WIZARD 100, from Vodafone (VPA II compact)
Excellent work hades Wishing you all the best of luck on ur project of writing apps for this ( and waiting in anticipation to see what they are so far this is looking preety intresting)

=> Login incorrect
I have not been able to Login. Please only way to overcome dum??
@sieu_sury the login name should be root and password is blank after you login suceesfuly then type in startx for it to work.

what are password and login?
Dont reed

Am I right?????
Boot from SD?
You know, I've been thinking... I seem to remember that you can flash these things from the SD. If that's true, wouldn't that mean that somehow the device can be booted from the SD? I don't know that much about the flashing business. I do it all the time from ActiveSync, but with other peoples roms. It seems to me that if we could do that and not affect the WM OS that would kill a lot of the overhead.
Gizard
I just extracted the Gizard folder onto my SD card. I softreset the phone into WM6.1. Put my phone in flight mode. Used Task Manager 2 and killed any unnecessary apps. Then I ran haret straight from the SD. Once it boots, login with root and no password. Run "startx" and you got the linwizard desktop. Worked Great! Really wasn't slow at all. There isn't a whole lot there yet but so far so good!
Hi Guys,
i'm trying to change the Bootanimation in Android since a few Days now...
but had no luck yet!
in newest shubcrafts release there is the new canyogen bootani...
but i'm currently on FroyoStone V1 with Sense... so while booting there is firstly the HTC Logo on White screen, after that the android animation...
i've found a couple of nice animations.... i wanna try them... but no lock either where i copy the bootanimation.zip ...
found following path where it should be:
/system/media
/system/costumize/resource
/data/local/
nothing works...
any hints?! what did i wrong??
the other thing is that i want to disable the verbose boot of haret/android...
i think that should be somewhere to disable... maybe someone knows that too!
thx

I dont know about the boot anim.... but to REDUCE the ammount of debugging info at boot simply add 'quiet' to the set cmd in your startup.txt
so for example it would look like set cmdline "lpj=638976 quiet".
sorry if this is something already known to you

What don't you like about the verbose boot? I love geeking out, watching the lines as it boots. Non-techie people think it is the matrix.

Since there are literally thousands of post from peeps who have got it working without any major issues (me included ) i would suggested you are doing something wrong, however since its still essentially in beta there's bound to be issues for some.
best to start again & read carefully! its the best advice i can give.
All the best

you can download and install the android sdk on your computer, once its set up, then you can run a logcat to watch the background processes. if you see it looping, then it's locked up.
my first try i thought it had locked up on initial boot, so i pulled the batt. i rebooted and ran a logcat, saw it hang in the adio portion of setup.
i wiped the sdcard, formated it, and tryed again.
it takes about 5 min for it to setup the background services and kernel, then you'll be able to run logcat and watch it boot. i recomend waiting untill it calms down before even touching the phone even though it will prob be at the log in screen 5-10 min before it calms down.
once it calms down i personaly will log into my google account, wait for it to settle down, the restart it. after it reboots then ill start to play with it, set things up, load apps etc.

this is interesting I have search a little bit but its so complicated I gonna take some time to do this if I need help with it I wil mssg you
It still freeze with a green htc. maybe its my startup.
This is my stratup:
#Mdeejay FroYo Revolution v. 1.2
set mtype 2524
set ramaddr 0x11800000
set ramsize 0x1e400000
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set initrd_offset 0x00a00000
set cmdline "nand_boot=0"
boot
I have also added:
set data_size 1024
hello
just wanted to say i had kinda the same problem what i ended up doing is installing new rom from energy then extracted the files straight to the sd card hope this helps i had all kinds of problems rom fixed everything instantly
Try using a different kernel. I had the exact same issue as you and I found out that my phone doesn't work with any kernels that screw around with the CPU settings. I would suggest using Hastarin R8 or 7.7 Alt. If that doesn't work, try using the kernel from THIS build. Basically, try a bunch of them. One just might work.
Iam now using energy rom. iam trieying different android roms
I have tried the darkstone froyo 1.7 when it was booting its said can't mount the sd card. I have tried other sd card and it work. I can use android
Really should try reading before you go about tinkering
and for the record that builds not too great
"If you get unable to mount sdcard plz replace set cmdline "rel_path=Android" with set cmdline "rel_path=Android loop_partition=mmcblk0" in startup.txt"
that was originally posted in shubcraft and has since been posted in nearly every up-to-date build.

Hi!
I have now a TG01 too, and started to develop some Linux stuff for it.
The branch for it is in our htcleo repository.
http://gitorious.org/linux-on-wince-htc/linux_on_wince_htc/commits/linux-on-tg01
I did already a bit reasearch and put some new stuff in the htc linux wiki. I will update it if I found something new.
http://www.htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Tg01
17.09.11 Edit10 and last:
Hi!
I pushed my last changes. There some new stuff in repo now like:
- Powerbutton support
- Fixes for Power/USB
- Panel Code
- Notifications
- Usb cable pull/push did not crash device anymore
and much other.
I'm closing this project for me because I've no time to work on it.
One Info, the problems with the GUI after boot are ril related. The biggest work is RIL. It looks like you have to write (or find) a RPC based RIL lib.
have fun!
Markinus
Edit9:
Calls works now. But the mic not.
Battery works, a simple cable detection driver too. Problem, you cannot in the moment pull or push the cable in/out. If you do it the devices will crash after ca. 15 sec.
Build updated.
Edit8:
Audio and vibration works.
!Important: Run clrcad.exe in wince bevor you run haret and boot linux!
Edit7:
The Volume and Camera Buttons are now supported.
Edit6:
Added touchscreen buttons
Added first Test Build! Extract to sd and run haret! Look to Post 2.
Edit5:
Touchscreen is working now. I had to recalculate the calibration values. Later we have to look to better calib values, maybe a calib app for users.
Edit4:
We have now a official mach id 3197. This have to be changed in the default.txt for haret.
Edit3:
So some new stuff is checked in:
- panelfile with basic support for mdp and lcdc
- sd card works
- usb works
- rpc, pcom, works
Status: the device is booting now android till the unlock screen in the GUI, but without touchscreen ...
Edit2:
Branch is in our Leo repo:
http://gitorious.org/linux-on-wince-htc/linux_on_wince_htc/commits/linux-on-tg01
The basic stuff is now in. Is booting. I didn't find a device ID for tsunagi, so I had to create one.
status: kernel is booting and android starting. We need to write much new stuff to get all hardware working.
default.txt:
set mtype 3197
set ramaddr 0x11800000
set ramsize 0x0e800000
set initrd_offset 0x00a00000
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline ""
boot
We need to research much stuff. And all this needs much time. So don't ask for dates
!!!IMPORTANT: USE ALL STUFF AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
!You can break your device!
Markinus
First Test Build:
Look to top whats working.
Second testbuild:

hi markinus! i'm glad to see another dev involved to port android on TG01! a new hope for our phone! yesterday i've thinked to sell it.. but now i've a new hope.. and can't wait for some news, good luck.. and if you need help.. just ask..
just a question.. what means "kernel is booting" status? sorry for my english
can you post a link to the kernel your using?
Good to see things moving here.
Hope that the TG01 community will get a workin' kernel
They're worth it.
Ok. I'm going to try this one but after I finish with my homework.
I'm downloading it now.
Wait for news.........
Nice thread, I hope to have good news ..
Last News...
After I download the file I had some problems. It gave me errors when I try to make arch=arm tsunagi_defconfig. Error was like a privet file and you don't have access. So I copy all the files on new directory and then I was able to do make arch=...... defconfig. Then I compiled it with success.
Then I make all changes in default.txt and it run then restart. But this time I think it's problem from some APP. What it say but I wasn't able to see it. It was to fast.
I need some help to set debug haret.
Current default.txt in haret/debug/ is: pwf tg01-ramconsole.txt 0x1FFC0000 0x40000
If some one can help me how to change it that's go be perfect.
Sorry about my English I'm still learning.

That's great job what have you done. It's amazing. I thing kernel is booting now but I am not sure. With me is still restarting.
If I can help with something just tell me. I'm not professional but may be I can do something.
I was thinking about board configuration and all other configs.. but I didn't know how to do it. So
Thanks for your job.
For those who want to try himself.
1st. Download from Markinus posts his repository it's on the right side on the page http://gitorious.org/linux-on-wince-htc/linux_on_wince_htc/commits/linux-on-tg01
2nd. Unzip it in a folder that you have created before. How to unzip it?
Go to Applications -> Accessories->Terminal
In Terminal tap: cd name of your new folder, ( example: cd myAndroid )
then you have myAndroid$
Now you tap : tar xvzf directory where you have download Markinus repository. (example: tar xvzf /home/downloads/linux-on-wince-htc-linux_on_wince-htc-linux-on-tg01.tar.gz.gz)
You will see how the file is unziped.
3rd. You will see in your folder that there is a new folder named (linux-on-wince-htc-linux_on_wince-htc-on-tg01 or something like that). If you see like a small lock in the front of this folder then do this. Create a new folder put the name you want. Then cut everything from the folder linux--on-wince-htc...........etc. and past it in your new folder.
(example what I did it was easy just in my folder myAndroid I create a folder kernel_1 and I paste everything inside.
4th Now wen we have not everything but may be a part of. Is time to download toolchan (compiler) and some libraries.
in your Terminal tap : apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline5-dev lib32z-dev.
thats for the libraries.
and this one for tollchains or cross tools or ... what you want call it.
http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release858
download it and install it. in the same folder as repository (example myAndroid/cross_tools)
Thanks to Endrix with his tutorial help me a lot.
5th.Now enter in your kernel_1 folder or whatever you called it and tap: make ARCH=arm tsunagi_defconfig
6th When finish writing to configuration. tap: make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
enter
If you have done everything without errors then you will see how linux is building your kernel.
7th When finish building go to (exaple myAndroid/kernel_1/ARCH/arm/boot/ ) ther is your kernel Image and zImage you can use both if you want. :O)
Thanks Markinus and Endrix.
EDIT: I've only got windows at work... Can someone please upload a compiled kernel so I can try it on my TG01 so I can give feedback?
Awesome, seriously well done guys!!!
I've not had time to help like I had hoped, so simply well done to those involved so far
).
Glad to hear it finally arrived Markinus
Good to have you on board too. With regard to a compiled kernel, everyone please allow Markinus some to time to get things working before we start asking for kernels to check.
Just so that people understand, kernel booting doesnt mean kernel loading a android gui environment, so theres still nothing to see. What Markinus means by that is he can see that the hardware is being initialised and the things that should be happening when a kernel boots are happening.
Good to see things moving again though

This is an Linux/Android thread. You should ask the question in the appropriate thread.
Bally, I knew it wasn't ready per se, I just wanted to try and contribute by testing to see if they got the output they expected on multiple phones as I don't have the time to help with development as I expected to
One thing ttt bothers me, TG01 has a low amount of ram (or at least i think so) for winmo most roms get just 100 or so.. Running opera and some music on the backgorund may be enought to get things messsy.
Will android spend more or less in comparissom?
thanks

i also worried about this too. but most android devices have 256 ram or so. and android is more effiecient with ram management than windows mobile. we also have badly optimised toshiba dlls. when running android, it shuts down windows mobile, and opens android os, so both os dont run in the background, thus saving ram. also i wonder after we manage to get functional android roms, we get skinned versions, such as HTC Sense! what do you guys think+
There you have one compiled kernel..
Is ready to execute. Just extract it to your sd card in your phone and that is all. Then run haret.
This one is from Endrix file I just replaced the Image file and set the new default text. There is a zImage as well and you cant try it if you want.

Can anyone help me? Ive tried just about every way to install android and it always stops on jumping to kernel?
Just saw this here

If you are i920 owner you need to use uncompressed kernel image, try these:
follow my guide 1-2
download uncompressed kernel image from here
put Image file into root directory of your Omnia's SD Card (Storage Card)
edit default.txt (in your phone!) file and change "set kernel zImage" to "set kernel Image" (notice - no "z" letter!)
follow my guide 3-8 no vaaaaaaaaaaaa
It booted into linux but failed and rebooted.. What do I need todo to the use froyobundle? Since it uses a Zimage

I would like to, but I am unsure how this beta performs on i920, it seems a bit different from i8000 though.
However, here is the link to the MoDaCo Forum on i920, maybe you should check it out because that was the dedicated forum for i920 users on Omnia2Droid.
**Link down at the moment, will update the link once the link is accessible.
Alright thanks Im just trying to get the Andromnia II installed now keeps failing and rebooting
Guess I grabbed a crappy omnia 2 of craigslist.. just waiting on the droid bionic now
Does anyone have the link for uncompressed kernal file for the omnia i920 it is not posted on the madaco link
