Android 1.1 working fairly well now

[schettj]

For those wanting to kick the tires

Android 1.1

- still uses HaRET to boot from inside WinMo off storage card
- still no wifi/gps/bt

data, calls, sms, keyboard, rotation, battery, usb, sound working well. I was able to boot to android, sync my contacts/calendar from google, use the marketplace, browse, etc on AT&T/Tilt.

Edit: I had nothing to do with this, other then tipping the hat to the folks doing the actual work....

It works fine using 6.5... Android isn't ran in WinMo. You launch the Haret boot loader in WinMo and it reboots your device into Android.

I know this, i've done it several times over and over and over, and still have no success. I've probably tried booting Android about.....50+ times,and only got it to boot once

I slapped on the kaiser_wwe_shifu_05_3g rom, with 1.65x radio on AT&T on a 2gb Fat32 formatted card and she boots up every time. Been running it for a day now, its solid. Overnight battery drain was 13% (in 10+ hours - sigh, if only the TP could do that)

Yay, finally a use for my at&t tilt

Anyway, might want to try it one more time, it does work

Android Carrier Settings:

I also had to set the APN settings manually in Android then launch Togga.


My default.txt (My provider is Cincinnati Bell):

Seems like anyone else that had this problem was able to fix by:

Extracting/Unzipping data.gz and rename the data file: data.img

[Vertigo]

even with the new version I still get "Failed to extract Data Image" ... using vouge
and with the mogul It show starting vouge linux and the SD time out...

/sigh

I used the same page to set up the AT&T Settings...

I have to have a data connection in windows before I fire up andriod, and I need to manually run the whatever its called (tonga?) thing to connect to my self-entered at&t "access point" per that web page above.

Once that's done it stays connected just fine.
