Check out the rootfs, under /init.etc/keymaps. You need to have both a .kl and a .kcm.bin file -- I'm not clear on what the scope of each of those is. I think the kernel-level mapping is alright, though, so at least there aren't 3 places to look.
I'm not at all clear on how to actually put those files together, having never done it. The .kl file is just text, so that should be pretty self-explanatory. I think the .kcm.bin has to be compiled by the android kcm tool, which probably requires the full sources, which is a huge hassle. But it looks like there are uncompiled kcm files in that directory, so maybe you can figure it out, and then send a file over to someone who compiles the Android sources.
If you get stuck, someone on #htc-linux should be able to point you in the right direction better than I can.

Just curious!

The raph500 startup.txt should work fine. I haven't tried it myself, but 2.2 required no changes to the startup.txt on my device.

What's happening when you try to start it? Maybe it's a simple problem with an easy fix.

clean format FAT32 of SD card. using AIO from 6.12.10 boots fine into Android, havent played with it too much.
having a tough time sorting through the 300+ pages of this thread so ill cut to the meat here.
Can I use the Raph800 with Android on Verizon without Data subscription?
if so, do I change/unlock the phone through WM in order to get VZW network functionality, or can this be done all within Android?
I'm guessing I need to get the phone unlocked and functioning in WM with VZW before gaining that functionality in Android.
are there any other Stock updates that should be done prior to Unlocking?
Anyone want to hold my hand here or at least point me to applicable posts/threads?
TIA and I will guinea pig as necessary.

You can use it without a data subscription. Everything you need to do data-wise can be done over wifi (it's just less pleasant). But the process of switching over to Verizon with a Sprint phone is well outside the scope of this thread. I believe the short version is: get the ESN/MEID activated on Verizon (not necessarily easy); unlock and flash a generic WinMo rom and add Verizon customizations; manually update your PRL, MDN, MSID, etc.; fix whatever problems you encounter. Once the phone is working on Verizon in WinMo, there should be no additional effort to make it work in Android.
I'm sure there's a 'Sprint Touch Pro on Verizon' guide somewhere here, but I don't have a link.

Nope. Different mach-type -- needs to know about the different memory layout way early in the boot process.
