is nand working for a sprint TP2 yet?

I was following NUMEROUS guides last night trying to get it to work. I seemed to get 1 completely up but then when I'd put the SIM card back in it would just constantly reboot and wifi simply didn't work (tiad's).

The other ones I was playing with would get stuck in a fastboot loop no matter what I would try.

I was drinking last night since today's my birthday so I wasn't on top of my normal game... Does it work good if I were to put in a better effort or would the work just be a waste of time? I'm wanting something nice and easy that even my wife and sister can use on their phones.

It works, but it's not ready for mass consumption. Certainly not good enough to just hand your wife/sister and expect it to just work.

Anything that says TESTING or DEV is functional on some level, but requires some work and there will be bugs.

I have my wife dual booting right now. I did a full and proper format of the SD card before putting things on this last time and it seems to be holding up quite a bit better.

Are the only people still clinging to these phones us old SERO users? They used to offer some phones for only $10 more a month but at some point every android phone became an extra $20/mnth.

That ESN changing stuff sure does look tempting at this point. I've been waiting a very long time for sprint to open things up a bit with phones but I'm about ready to give up. We'd be fine with a cell that was nothing but 911, unlimited txt and unlimited net but nobody seems to want to actually offer that.

Lots of TP2 users on Boost run the Android ports. Edit- deleted

Yeah I've snagged multiple step by step guides before they disappeared from the various forums I lurk daily.

I think I've been reading about it long enough to go ahead and get an android phone and give it a shot. Several people in my family are glued to their $30/mnth sero with TP2 and everybody is eligible for contract renewal so the $100 epic or that free samsung phone are really tempting to grab several and play with 1 and if I can't get it worst case I just sell off the phones and pay for a few months of SERO service with the gains.

i think its hard for people since they have no idea wtf fastboot is or anything related to how android roms are deployed. So a little education about that is needed before going nand.
