overclocking winmo and android not booting

[steveoski]

ok so recently i have been trying to get android to boot on my sprint tp2 and also on my gfs vzw tp2. we both had our phones overclocked in windows mobile with the netripper app and the oc 4.21 script. every single time i would try and boot android it would say booting linux the status bar would go to the end and than the phone would hang, both of them. so i would pull all the files off format the sd and than everything would work as expected on both phones. once i set the overclocking script back up the same thing would happen it would hang on the booting linux screen and i would have to remove the script for it to work again.

has anyone else experienced this and if so can you fix it? i like to mess around with android but i still use winMo as my primary OS and its kind of a pain to have to uninstall the script just to boot into android. i also know there is another overclocking winMo script but i havent tried it so i dont know if it will cause the same problem.

i think thats a known issue... you would have to turn on safe mode in the overclocking program to about 70 or 80 seconds to give you enough time to open project android after a fresh boot... u could also install the dualboot and that would open right away but you will still need to set safe mode to give you enough time to boot into android before the phone overclocks... also make sure the safe mode speed is stock speed... i havent tried this but it should work.

it works, been doin that for a while now. safe mode, stock speed, 300000ms. I recently dug out the dualboot .cab since I kept missing my "window of opportunity"....just make sure you edit your startup.txt accordingly.
