Linux for Kaiser? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Is there a way to run Linux on a TytnII (Kaiser)? Detals/links, please.

round here we use something called search. It is up at the top right hand corner you see. If you were to use that thing and type in what you're looking for you would find what you are looking for.
http://www.google.com/cse?cx=000825...&q=linux+kaiser&cof=FORID:0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

Really glad that search has finally made it to your neck of the woods. Now all you have to do is learn to use it effectively. The link you gave returns 10 results none of which answers the question.
One of these days courtesy will make to "over there" too.

Actually that search returned 896 (only 10 on each page though), but anyway I think this is the best place to start looking.....

You will probably need to read through the most of thread to get a good idea of the current situation.

Thank you.

that attitude makes this place very new user unfriendly.
Why not change the forum so if you have less than 100 posts you can only use the search function.. that way it would save people like you having to press F5 every 5 mins so you can jump on the next new post to reply with
OMG search!!!

How many times does it need to be said that this is a "developer site" (don't believe me, have a look at the URL), not a "spoon feed site"? If you are not willing to spend 5 - 10 minutes searching prior to creating another thread for a topic that has been covered here several times, then you deserve to be ridiculed.
What makes the OP even more ridiculous is that it's not just asking a simple question like "Can the Kaiser run Linux?" Instead, they add "Details/links", which indicates they expect someone else to go and do all of the work for them.
And by the way, courtesy is a 3-way street and it takes 2 to use the carpool lane.

Thank you NotaTreoFan
and I would think this link covers it, which is one of the top returns in what I posted before.

I'm sorry that I'm not willing to dig through all those links for your research. Now when someone comes in and actually uses search to find out if there is Linux on the Kaiser, they will have to dig through your redundant threat. So you just added to the mess. Thanks.
Lastly, you come to this site, which is rich and full of information. The admins and mods spend lots of time making it so that all the information is available to you, they post street signs and try to keep it all simple enough to use. All this is done to make your life and our lives easier, but you can't use all these things implimented for you as a courtesy. Imagine if there was no search?

None of those actually answer the question and show you how to put an actual Linux distro on your phone. Sure you can put Android, but it's unusable. I've actually seen videos of people putting Linux on their Dell Axim, but the Kaiser would be different, since you need phone support.

No it doesn't say, "linux doesn't work on the phone" but quotes like
Realistically... I see the following happening: Sometime in the next 6 months someone gets linux to boot on this phone (to the effect that it can be used as a mini-workstation). Within the next year someone gets an actual kernel that give us phone functionality and base drivers so we can actually run a linux phone and get "basic" functionality. Over the next year (so year two now) this continues to get developed. Maybe at the end of year two we have a pretty nice functioning linux-based phone.

The MSM7500 phones can already boot linux ...

As of yet, Linux won't run on it, and the chances are not ery good that it will run Linux in the near future, because Qualcomm, who makes the processor/system on a chip that runs the PDA has not released the detailed specs for it. Ifyou want to run Linux on a PDA I suggest buying an old iPAQ, or even one of those Sharp Zauruses (Zauri?) that already come with Linux by default.

I want my kaiser look like HTC TOUCH or I-PHONE

i wanna upgrade my kaiser like HTC Touch or I-phone all visual effects like scrolling explorer and contact search etc.
i find a video but i dont know how to do it can anybody help me?
i want exactly this one like on the video

I propose a ban
I propose banning people who post threads like these. Are you serious? Dude, if you don't know how to mod your phone perhaps you should read through the forum and figure it out, and if you have a specific question, then feel free to ask it. Don't just say I don't know how to do it. You obviously are too lazy to figure it out by doing some basic reading.
i searched but i dont know where will i start
Let me guess, you searched one time and gave up? Well, I did one search too: I searched the word "iphone" in thread titles and displayed the results with the most views first: TA DA!!!
First link - "iphone App for WM - LookALike"
EDIT: Link was dead, updated it.
That's a silly suggestion...

We all have a right to opinions even if we disagree. Banning for this sort of thing is silly.
However, I agree they need to do homework and figure out what path they really would like to take before the step off the curb. This one is stepping right into an oncomming bus.
@jayopa86
Welcome to XDA-Dev
Just for guidance:
1
Given you are fairly new to this sort of thing, you will be better served if you post in the Kaiser Forum. (Not Kaiser Upgrading which is largely about ROM Flashing and the more advanced development stuff.)
2
Marm0lade above has given you a page of links (See link in his post) I hope you see how easy it was for him to search and get that page of iphone threads.
3.
Soon we are going to have a new Forum for Members who are Beginners, this will be a good place to post this kind of question.
I am going to move this thread to the regular Kaiser forum.
I may also close the thread in the next day or so, because the answers are there if you care to hunt around. However, if anyone wants to give you helpful, constructive advice about how to go about finding suitable information they can do so in the next few hours.

Most of that doesnt look like an iPhone to me. And I really dont want the main screen of the iPhone, but the way he navigates through all of the menu's and stuff is nice. Is that done through the cube?

Well, to check out Cube info see here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Cube
Mike
for somewhat the same menu interface or some other shell than wm has to offer you can use spb shell 2 (google xda for it)
it gives a nice cube/touch interface wich can be customized also there are alot of programs out there that enhance your phone like camera album,long endkey,big startmeu,s2u2,fff,touch commander and many more i suggest start reading the forum and use the wiki/google search this forum for answers good luck...

The hardest bit will be making a new case, and interfacing a new wide screen, then virtualising Apple OS to run under Windows, it would run like a dog.

are u nuts!!! how wud u like if the table turns on u. i myn thats jus like kids fighting over a lollipop!!
i actually like what is in that video. i know what some of the apps are, like the cube which i have had, but some of the other stuff i havent even seen. that is one good rom if thats what it is. giving a few pointers to a newbie is not going to kill you ;-)
I concur, That video is one I haven't seen before. I noticed the HTC Cube on there. but before he pulled that up he had another screen he was flipping in the same manner. What the heck program is that?
My phones all modded up and such. But that proggy makes me jealous.
i know, ive been searching for the last 40 mins trying to find those applications, im no noob at installing or searching, but theres so much to go through can anyone tell me what progs have been added inc the ones from the today menu. any halp appreciated, all i want to knwo is the names. TIA

Well, if you must know I have been using that user name, (and variations thereof) all over the internet for almost 20 years now. I used to drive an ambulance before I opened my own business. That's where it came from. Still, there is a lot to be learned from reading the stickies & the Wiki. I've seen the following link posted many times, and I feel its far more blunt than what I linked to... http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php At least I showed you that there is hope by reading the information available. Trust me, it could have been much worse. You can easily get flamed here if you ask without reading the Wiki first.

The "recommend me a ROM(and stuff)" thread!

Hey folks! Been lurking for a while and thought it was about time I posted something useful, so I looked around and didn't see anything similar and thought a "recommend me a ROM" thread would be a nice idea.
To start:
Basically I have an MDA Vario III with Rom version 1.56.220.4and Radio version 1.27.12.11 still locked to T mobile. I use my vario for calls regularly, texts even more and quick alot of the Web and walk service (I live in the UK).
I love the look of the HTC interface (with the big digital numbers and easy tabs) and am mostly looking for something a bit snappier that has some inventive features ( like being able to use 8Gig memory cards) built in.
can anyone recommend me a ROM (official or non) that would suit me?
Feel free to ask for recommendations of your own!

Not to make you feel bad, but, what you posted is something redundant and has been discussed many times in the ROM section.
This is another thread that should not exist. If you had searched, you would have seen lots of closed threads about this very topic. ROMs are very subjective, and so is Radio version. You are just going to test every single one that looks interesting to you.
Yea i can recomend clicking the G.W.E.N.I. link in the sig of notatreofan the guy abouve me

Is this the reason you earned your "wings"?
When it comes to your answer, "You are just going to test every single one that looks interesting to you." Isn't that a little bit harsh? You should remember that not all the users here have all the time in the world to try out every ROM that comes around, people have lifes.
It must be cool to be senior, but to ***** @ everyone who starts a new thread is a little bit too much IMO.

if this thread is just going to be a flamefest, you might as well lock it right now.

I don't think that I hold myself out as "holier than thou". That being said, look at the URL for this website; xda-developers.com. If you are not willing to do any work yourself, and just want everything handed to you, then you need to leave.
I am by no means a developer, but I do my research before creating stupid/unnecessary threads. Go ahead, look at the threads I started... 7 over 21 months.
theres really nothing wrong with noob questions...we all had them...but if they've been asked over n over again...or people dont search the answers first...thats the problem..how hard is it to search before posting..maybe they have...but if u did deep n not post after searching and lookin at the titles of the first page...i'm sure all these threads wont exist
I absolutely love the pictures in this thread. At least it was worth something....

Camera software is pathetic on the tilt

is there a good camera software that just fixes all the issues with the stock camera on the tilt.
for example, I push camera mode, I can then zoom in and out simply with a remapped button.
also takes the picture when i hit the button, not 3 seconds later.
I have tried all the fixes, Nadavi, etc. NONE fix these issues, which I think are basically all that we want. a simple camera.
The camera has been talked about a LOT on these forums... you should probably search it, but most of the new roms have great camera software built in. I'm more than happy with my tilt's camera. It's a phone with a camera in it, not a camera with a phone in it. Low light pictures are going to suck no matter what, fact of life, get some decent lighting and get some decent pictures. My L26 V9 rom takes less than 1 second after pressing capture to take the pic.

ok, so lets do this then. Is there a cab file specifically addressing the camera issues. I don't want to have to flash a rom to the phone, I kinda like the way I have it set up now.

take it easy dude
I have been using Nadavi cab and HTC fix for long time, and the camera takes decent photos...NOT great.. but ok...
The lens's cover is one part of getting bad pictures, as well as the Drivers problem....
this is what you get with the tilt... and if you did a little research before getting it, you probably wouldn't have got that much upset...
I tried cool camera when I first got my Kaiser.. but it did not work... I'm not sure if they have a working version right now for the Kaiser!
I'm sorry for your shock... but that's the fact about the kaiser's camera...

Here is another useless post:
This is what I don't get, people spend hundreds of dollars buying a phone they know nothing about and did no research on ( camera is an extensively well documented problem).
They then join a developers forum, that they know no one on, and know nothing about, and start to whine like a child about a problem that has been talked about 1000 times on the forum ( if they had bothered to do any reading whatsoever ).
Then when a senior member tells them" it is what it is " and it has already been covered 1000 times and that it is against forum rules to start redundant threads, as their fourth post they fire back as above.
You obviously joined to add significant information to the cause and to make lots of new friends. I lurked on this forum for five months, learning and gathering before I ever felt the necessity to post.
Sorry, I just don't get it.

lol I love how it tells you how long the search took... Search took 0.12 seconds... it's like it's saying "hey nooobs.. it LITERALLY takes less than a second for me to search the subject you're looking for"
I just have to agree with the newbie. I read about six zillion posts trying to find something out - can you lift a rom off a phone and reflash to another phone from the same carrier without spl (orange uk post).
Not a single 'senior' posted an answer, but post a question that has been covered over 1600 inter related posts and you get this stupid flame response. If you 'seniors' are so smart, why not just post the url with the answer.........
You guys give geeks a bad name

Because nobody deserves a free pass. You won't learn anything from someone else doing it for you.

since when do geeks give a **** what people think about them?
And why not just post a url with the answer??? Because this in no way, shape or form encourages people to use the search to find the answer and instead complicates the forum for the people that follow the rules and DO use the search.
So let me get this straight.... You didn't get a reply for your question, which upset you. But when someone who asks something that has been covered (like your question has) and gets flamed for it, this ALSO upsets you? How exactly do YOU want us to reply to redundant threads? Jeez, for someone that has contributed absolutely nothing to the community you sure are picky and demanding.
XDA-DEVELOPERS.COM IS A PRIVILEGE NOT A RIGHT!

How can you read six zillion posts, you obviously didn't start with the sticky/wiki at the top of the forum. Whole section on dumping roms and whole section on flashing carrier roms, (carrier spl) and cooked roms (Hardspl). The fact that your question was ignored, is a testament to the availability of the answer, not a lack of intelligence by the senior members.
I don't think that it is erroneous to say that 75% of all questions here are answered in the wiki, and another 15% can be answered with a basic search.
What I don't get part deux.
The useless post to complain that " there are too many useless posts to weed through to find an answer to my question."
It is just me? Tell me, I can take it.

I agree with you. I was on this site for a long time before I signed up and more time after before I posted my very first two questions (several days ago). I searched and searched and I must say it was very un-inviting to find multiple 8-16 page threads containing "Security Unlock". I wanted to know what it was and all I found was how to do it and the problems people were having... and some flaming... Anyway, one of my questions was answered and the other ignored. I read almost every post of the 16 page thread and finally found the answer in one single post (the search didn't put me on the right page for some reason).
I know there's a LOT of information on here, but it seems like some pruning needs to be done on posts such as this one commenting on rules and flaming... at least in the more informative threads...

ok, so lets do this then. Is there a cab file specifically addressing the camera issues. I don't want to have to flash a rom to the phone, I kinda like the way I have it set up now.
I really have no issues with picture quality, just the delay, and slow autofocus
Click to expand...

Have you ever loaded KaiserTweak? One of the settings you can 'tweak' is the shutter delay which greatly improved the performance of my camera (it made the camera actually usable!)
The slow autofocus is still an issue for me but I just live with that as it only really has an effect when I am trying to take pictures of my niece and nephew who don't stop moving!

you tube not workin on HTC handset

over the last few days youtube hasnt been working for me when i click on the video i want to view the program says connecting then after a few seconds it says 'unable to connect'
can anyone help please
**This is not intended as a flame**
A) This topic has been covered 9,999,999,999,999,999e10 times on the forum before
B) You need to provide more information. (ROM version, program being used for YouTube, etc...)
SEARCH and you will find the answer to you question. (See my sig for a link.) As NotATreoFan stated, this has been asked and answered.
It amazes me that people just drop into the forum and ask a question providing no information about their device or what they have done already to troubleshoot their issue. (In most cases this is because they have done nothing.) Rather conceited of you to think that YOUR configuration is the only one. There are thousands of device\Rom\radio\apps combinations out there. Even if we wanted to help you we couldn't since you have given us ZERO information about your device. All we know is it is an HTC Handset, which means it is one of a dozens of different possibilities.
Don't waste your time, and forum space, by posting generic questions like this. In fact, don't even respond to me. Just go search for your answer.

The Kaiser does not have native support for YouTube. You should download and install a program called TCPMP, and also download the FlashVideoBundle plugin for it. I cannot point you to a specific link because there are several different versions of TCPMP/FlashVideoBundle, so you have to experiment and find which one works for the ROM you are running.
thanks for a quick reply, at least some people are decent on here, but after comments like that off other members in not coming back...
this community needs some decent members!!!!
denco7 go "mod edit" yourself
You QUIT Flaming other members. This only make you as bad as them.
The reason they told you to search it this. If you had used the Search function and entered "how to play youtube" you would have found a bunch of answers.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=385227
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320962
So What have we learned here.
1. Youtube is not supported Native.
2. Search Will yield Results, I promise.
3. You catch more flys with honey versus vinegar.
4. Don't be rude, even if someone else "started it."
Follow these rules and you will have a happy forum life.

A) youtube is supported natively using the mobile youtube service

Dude. Seriously?
This thread had died a spectacular death. And you, being a troll, dig it up and open old wounds.
You win first prize in silliness today

Which ROM to use???

Alright, before some people get started, I have read the noob's sticky and have done the HardSPL and such. I am just having SO MANY problem's with everything (just the AT&T Tilt, I need to get rid of the AT&T crap) so I just want to know what ROM people would recomend for person who doens't need crazy special program's. All I use is the internet and text msging and some GPS. What is the fastest ROM with pretty much the most basic program's on it?
I had the AT&T Rom which I unlocked by getting the unlock code and then I did the hard reset and configured the phone and then a soft reset before the AT&T crap got loaded onto my phone but now I can't set up the internet???? (I think's it's because I don't have the AT&T program to turn off the proxy?)
I know you guy's get a lot of these question's that seem stupid but I am new to the Kaiser so help would be very much appreciatted.
1. Wrong forum.
2. Everybody has their own taste.
3. Test them all out and see which you like best.
4. Thread's going to probably get closed.
haha search? it's all good just search a lot before posting personally i spend atleast two days searching threads and trying things before i post up my problem.
You should start trying the last Official Rom, look for them in the wiki
Good Luck!

Well, I don't think this is the wrong forum to ask - it has nothing to do with ROM DEVELOPMENT, it is just a general question!
I too would say: try the latest offical HTC ROM - it has no user customization / user preferred application integrated and is almost clean. In addition, it has everything to get you started, from AUTO NETWORK / INTERNET CONFIGURATION to STREAMING MEDIA PLAYER.

I think it is hilarious how people just LOVE to get on other's ass's about simple question's. I am asking for people OPINION'S!!!!!!!!! If you don't feel like giving one well hell, THEN DON'T!!!!!! Also the wrong forum thing, that's strange because I don't think that I am developing any rom's am I? I thought this was a "general" question? It's funny because when I have talked to people on other site's, this is EXACTLY what they said about some people here, instead of just helping you the love to chirp about nothing.
Well thank's to the one person to recomended the HTC ROM. I appreciatte 1 decent person.

You know, it's not even that, but when you get ongoing threads about the same idea, it gets extremely annoying.
The ROM i like wont necessarily be the ROM that you like; it's a matter of taste and content.
Anyhow, to answer your question, i'm on my own Kareem's RevROM v4.44.
I understand what your saying 100%, the only thing is what do I search? Like I went to the "built in forum search" and when I type in what I am looking for (under Kaiser obviously) I get like 100 thread's that each have 100 page's? I am not trying to be that lazy guy that want's everything done, I am just that new guy that want's to learn how to make a good phone freaking awesome.
Thank's for the help, I'll give that ROM a shot.
Also this will clear 100% everything off of my phone and just let me start new correct?????
I want to get this internet going since I am paying for 6GB's a month haha.
For me some of the best Kaiser Roms are ROMeOS 4.6 (no manilla) and Solace 1.5 or 2.0 Beta (manilla 2D).
Unfortunately both Chefs have moved on from cooking Kaiser roms, so those are probably the last versions of each.
Anyway, those Roms are fast, and use the minimalistic mentality. They do not come with anything extra, however there are extra applications in the extended ROM if you want to install them.

That is exactly the point. The reason you get 100 different threads when you search is because of threads like this one. Now the next guy will get 101 different threads.
This place is a great database of knowledge, but these threads don't add anything to that. Nothing new will be learned in this thread - no new problem solved. Threads like this just make the informative posts and knowledge gaining threads less likely to be found.
People aren't getting on you because they don't want to help or they just want to yell, it's because they see the big picture. They see that in trying to help yourself, you are hurting everyone else.
My Tilt is the first phone I've ever had that could do more than call someone, yet using only information that I've gleaned from this site, I've been able to unlock my phone, flash dozens of different ROMs, flash dozens of different radios, write my own scripts, and develop my own small apps to accomplish what I wanted to do. The key part here is that I did all of this without starting a single thread. I'm sure there are hundreds of others who can say the same thing....and it's probably why they seem annoyed. They know it's possible to find the information because they've done it....but they also know that it's now becoming increasingly more difficult to find it again.
If you don't know what to search for, just start browsing the ROM development forum and look for the threads that are the hottest and that have the most posts. That will tell you which ROMs people are using. Find a handful of them and read the details. See which ones look the cleanest and don't have the apps that you don't want (or have the ones that you do).....and then try a few. Kareem's right - my answer is going to be different than his or anybody else's. There will be just as many answers as there are ROMs, so looking through the ROMs themselves seems like the obvious way to get the information you seek.
You can be a great contributor to this place by taking the time to find the information that is already present, and in doing so, making it easier for the next user to do the same.
As noted in the link below, all "best roms" threads will be closed/deleted. I am going to close this one and then will delete it later.
