Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800) - PRE-ALPHA (not yet usable)

Yeah, today's eclair version (XDANDROID.16.01.10) is the one you have to use if you want (almost) fully working keyboard as well as working data. I haven't played with the live backgrounds yet, though.

The biggest speed tweak would be getting the second bank of memory working (there's 80 more MB of RAM that are simply being ignored by Android, since when they aren't, they cause crashes). MrPippy is working on that now, and he's had a couple breakthroughs recently, but he hasn't gotten anything working with reasonable stability. Hopefully he'll get there soon.

Other than that... there are lots of things that are running unnecessarily, I think, just due to this kernel being seriously unoptimized code at this point. In time, the big bugs will fall, and then the smaller ones will fall, and then the extraneous stuff will get weeded out and it will run faster. At least, that's my guess. Whether anyone will still have a Touch Pro by that time is another question.
