iDroid MoJo 1.0.4.1 Release Announcement

[nickp666]

NOTE: This is a bugfix release for the 1.0.4 version that was retracted

On behalf of the iDroid dev team, I am proud to announce the immediate availability of iDroid MoJo v1.0.4.1

This release is for iPhone 2G,  iPhone 3G & iPod Touch 1G and is available via bootlace or as a binary package.

IF YOUR DEVICE IS NOT STATED ABOVE THEN IT IS NOT SUPPORTED - WE DO NOT HAVE ETA'S ON OTHER PORTS AT THE MOMENT.

BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD, PLEASE SEE THE KNOWN ISSUES SECTION - THIS WILL SAVE US SOME SUPPORT TIME BY EXPLAINING SOME KEY ISSUES

I have had some people ask whether this works with iOS 4.2.1, the answer at the moment is no for manual installers (Bootlace now has a firmware bundle for 4.2.1). - we need to fix loadibec for the USB protocol change

What is this?
This is the iDroid Project's forth minor release of Android Froyo for iDevices, built from the community source code repos at http://www.github.com/iDroid-Project

Changelog

There have been a large amount of changes across all of our repositories, some of the more key ones are summarised here, but I would suggest checking our Github organisation for a full changes list.

Android
----------------
RAMDISK - Stop dhcpd when wpa_supplicant is stopped
Built against JDK6 instead of 5
Upgraded ADWLauncher to 1.2.0
Added OI File Manager 1.1.3
Problematic APN's disabled (Temporarily disabled until such a time that we have data communications - solves no calls/texts issues)
Fixed terminal, now allows numbers/special chars
LCD Density set to 140
Build properties moved into specific device trees in vendor/apple
SIM PIN support - WITH CAVEAT - SEE KNOWN ISSUES BELOW
o2 UK Data APN details set correctly for iPhone
overlay added to vendor/apple - sensible default settings - this will also allow for tethering (once data is implemented) and a few other things
Some performance tweaks
new userdata image - REVERTED - THIS WAS PART OF THE ISSUE WITH 1.0.4

Kernel
----------------
IPT1G accelerometer inversion issue PROPERLY fixed
Implemented mute in the wm8991 driver (iPhone 3G)

openiBoot - Version 0.2
----------------
Loadibec completely re-written
oibc completely re-written (Now Multi-threaded)
Added different word size support for SPI driver
Known-position task switching
Heavily refactored USB protocol
Removed libirecovery
Fixed a bug with large word transfers over SPI
Fixed minor bug in mmu.c
Fixed some minor bugs in the framebuffer
Version string now stored in /openiboot
Updated default/temp os config to new standard
Added boot_ios command
Fixed some incorrect registers
added multitouch firmware uninstall command (This does not happen automatically on uninstall - this is by design)
FOR A MORE DETAILED SUMMARY OF THE CHANGES TO OPENIBOOT PLEASE SEE https://github.com/iDroid-Project/openiBoot/commits

openiboot tools
----------------------
NOTE - We used to bundle openiboot tools in with our releases up until now, due to the size of the tools now that we have windows versions and OSX versions we have decided to remove them from the release packages - you can get them (Installers are available too) at http://idroid.nickpack.com/openiBoot/Tools

Known Issues
Loopback devices are presently not cleanly unmounted (as has been the case since day 1), as a result an integrity check is forced at startup slowing down boot time a little.
Power Management - A large amount of progress has been made on power management in recent releases, but as yet not all device drivers have suspend/resume in them & we are still lacking CPU idle/clock gating so there is still a lot of work to be done before we achieve optimum battery life.

ISSUES SPECIFIC TO THIS RELEASE:

SIM Pin Support
--------------------------------
Sim pin support has been implemented in this release for all basebands, there is however at this point one caveat for those of you who have newer basebands and those of you with an iPhone 2G - 3G ultrasn0w compatible baseband versions are not affected by this issue, only applicable to basebands that rely on a wildcard unlock and those that are pre ultrasn0w.

Wildcard unlock/iPhone 2G users will be able to enter their pin successfully and the baseband will unlock at the ril level, however android itself never actually sees this happen, therefore you have to go into Settings and enable airplane mode, then disable it again to get android to see that the baseband is unlocked - this will be fixed in a later release once the baseband communications layer has been rewritten - we figured that some sim pin support was better than none at all for the moment.

FAQ/User guide
ddominator has gone to great lengths to provide FAQ's and general usage information for iDroid, before posting please take a moment to read these, as a lot of common questions are already answered.

User Manual - http://www.idroidproject.org/wiki/User_Manual
FAQ - http://www.idroidproject.org/wiki/FAQ

Reporting Issues/Requesting Features
Please remember, this is alpha quality software - there is still a lot to be done.

We have a development tracker system set up to take bug reports and feature requests which you can find at: http://dev.idroidproject.org - please take the time to report any issues you find there.

Please take the time to file a proper bug report, 'iDroid is slow' is not constructive, and is a waste of developers time to answer, please if you wish to raise an issue be as specific as you can, this will greatly increase the chances of your issue being resolved and reduces the workload of the developers drastically.

[Vances]

Hello, the kernel for usb, but i need adb via wifi. Cound you upload to iDroid File Mirror? Thanks!

[campi9]

Im stilla having the same problem of the 1.0.4 wifi release. I can scan wifi spot,connect, but when i try to go on the web i can't display the page because there's any problem,like the wifi isn't connected. How ca i solve that problem? ipt1G with bootlace 2.1.4 and iDroid Mojo 1.0.4.1. With 1.0.3 release everything works..

[oztiz]

Same problem here with dns. I can log into my router with ip in adr. bar. So it got to be a dns problem... I think. Other then that: Great Release!!!

[campi9]

how to fix the dns problem?

[ddominator]

Odd that you guys are having DNS problems.

DNS was supposed to be fixed since MoJo 1.0

Anyways, try this link http://www.idroidproject.org/wiki/DNS_Fix if it will help.

[THREESTRIPEBRAND]

i've been messing with this release for about 5 minutes now and everything seems to be fine. thanks guys! 
2g/3.1.2/redsn0w 0.9.3

[JayWheel]

I also have the DNS problem.
I can access my homeserver through http://192.168.1.100, but not through its homeserver.com adddress.
Mojo 1.0.4 dual booting with iOS 4.2.1 on 3G

EDIT: Tried DNS fix, but ADB says "Unable to connect to 192.168.1.116:5555"

I had the same problem with adb tool, my workaround was to configure manually "IP settings" (IP address, Gateway, DNS, etc) for my WiFI network.

[Lobes]

Great Job.  I dont know how much you did on performance but it feels like it works much better on my 3g.  Looking forward to more advances.

*EDIT*  Spoke too soon as now i'm having issues.  Phone keeps saying "Process com.android.phone has quit. Please try again."  keeps asking me to force close.

[JayRolla]

Yea just wanted to say thanks and great work guys.  This release is a lot smoother on my 3g.  I actually had it connected to my home network and was surfing the web.  Cant wait till its fully ported.

[bingofly]

I had the same problem with adb tool, my workaround was to configure manually "IP settings" (IP address, Gateway, DNS, etc) for my WiFI network.

Where do i go to edit the "IP Settings" ?
Thanks
