WIFI cannot start

You have to do your initial boot without a SIM Card in, once the phone is started goto your Settings\Wireles & Networks\Mobile Networks\Network Operators and it will do a quick search, than click Automatically Select Network, that's what I did and mine works fine now...

Lost my live wallpapers too.

So did I, but than I found the Marketplace App, where I can redownload not only the 2 I'm missing, but plenty more for FREE..!!

GL bro, it's just a reading and following instructions thing... I think we all stumbled at first, but now I'm at a slow jog with this thing and once we get some sound integrated into this beast, I will be haulin ass with it..!! :headbang:

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Mr. Pippy, just outta curiosity do we know what is causing the sound not to work or is it something we just might have to deal without..??

From what I read, sounds like the speaker is disabled due to battery drain and it making strange sounds. Read it somewhere, don't remember where.

hmmm... first boot worked but no 3G data... second boot worked but phone soft reset upon loading Home Screen.. now third, fourth, an fifth tries all were same as the 2nd... Soft resetting about 10 seconds after boot up...

Followed every direction to the point...
SIM Card is out...
Initial setup worked fine all but having 3G...

Maybe I'll format my spare 1GB SD and throw it on there and give it another shot...

I had this same issue on last build, and no one including me could figure it out, my last effort was to totally delete everything off my card, throw the files back on there. It did it to me again 3 times and then poof, it just started working, weird stuff, but i was just happy it worked.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

for some reason i can get it to boot up..but then when i am going through the setup screen it goes black and resets...anyone else havin this problem or know whats going on?

Yeah thats weird cuz what I did was take out my 8GB sd FULLLL of shit + Android that was causing weird issues... Formatted my spare 1GB card, threw the files on there, started it up, and it worked right away..!?!?

I'm not bitchin cuz it's working now but that was just ironic that it did that...

Now if I could only find out how to implement my downloaded Live Wallpapers into the correct folder to be able to use them, that would really make me happy..!!

All files from post one are already extracted and inside the file.....just follow the instructions below and you are off....

just extract the folder and throw it on the root of the card.....if it does not work just move all the files onto the root.....FYI...what I do is add a new folder for all of my current stuff for Winmo and drop all Droid files right into the root...

flyers thanks for doing what you do...salute

I struggled with that folder stuff 2days ago and it didnt work for me. First off I have a 16gb class2 sd evryday winmo sd. Try to dump all winmo stuff in one folder and dump droid stuff to the root of the sd and boot up. It never fully booted the linux command code froze up. It looked like it was trying to read the stuff in the winmo folder and locked up. I think the cabs files are the problem. Im trouble shooting now with the winmo folder thing. I think the solution is no cabs just media(movies and music)basics in the winmo folder. It trail and error time, the good thing is I dont think you can brick your device. Worst case softreset or hardreset.

So what it seems the outcome will eventually be in the future is to fully modd your ROM , then remove cab files and winmo exe stuff from sd, only leaving normal media (music and movies) then dump droid file on it. Or store winmo stuffs straight to device memory... and keep sd free for droid business...

This post is based on me trying alot of different thing re: winmo stuff on sd while trying to boot Android.

Big Dogs pls chime in...:)

Hmm that's odd... I mean it kinda makes sense but at the same time I'm sure if that's the only thing holding it back it should be solved soon...

I run MAC OS/X and Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic partitioned on my Win7/Vista hard drive and the only thing that kept me from having sound on either of them was a simple driver update, so I figured this being Linux and Microsoft as well it was probably just a driver missing or needing to be updated or something like that...
