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

This project is coming along very good.... I tried it out a while ago when developement first started and to pretty much have a full OS is pretty amazing..

But to say its pre-alpha uhhhh... My girls has a MyTouch on t-mobile which she has had for a few months now... I have tried all sorts of roms on her phone and most of them run worse than this pre-alpha release on a phone that doesnt run it natively... There are way more force closes and random reboots than my phone did all day yesterday..

She has been buggin me to put the new eclair lock screen on her phone but every rom I tried pretty much sucked with the exception of a few..One being cyanogen roms... Well her face when I showed her my phone with eclair on it including the lock screen was priceless...

Needless to say I had to find her a new rom to but on it...She like the eclair with SenseUI but she had to settle with just Eclair and the old style bottom tab and using Beautiful Widgets..Which looks almost as good..She is currently running xRom Eclair Dark..

But back to my phone I am amazed at how complete this OS is.. Almost all of the apk's I have collected for her phone works on mine.. Only this I couldnt get working was the Wireless Tether...But Im gonna try the Wired tether today to see if that works..But even the beautiful widgets work but you cant have it download extra stuff for weather animations it crashes.. Weather updates fine though..

Im not sure but the people on xda just got the camera working on eclair recently. I dont know if its a hardware issue with our phones or if it was broken just like every other eclair build for android phones.

Wow that was a rant...But great work everyone involved it making this happen... Might want to up this release from pre-alpha considering it runs smoother/faster and with less bugs than eclair roms built for native android phones.
