Re: [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [11/221] FRX03 Reference!

I posted a few questions in the Diamond forum at XDA, but that board seems a bit dead right now. So hopefully you guys can give me a simple answer to a few questions. I've failed to come up with an answer after a few hours of searching old threads.

Recently bought a Diamond. have not activated it on Sprint, but it works well on WiFi. I have not unlocked the phone (running staock Sprint for now- which I am happy with.)

I reformatted my internal memory (Fat32/16kbs) and made sure there are no partitions.
I successfully installed the latest XDAndroid build(FX3), including having the Diamond specific startup and conf scripts.

Android runs great. Wifi works perfectly. Only 1 major and 2 minor issues:

1: No SD card mounted (in Andoid settings.) The Diamond has 4G of internal storage, but it is not recognized. This limits the apps I can use.
-I believe this has something to do with the file names in WinMo, but I can't find a fix.

2. Marketplace works... but there are apps that are missing. Flash 10.1 and Skyfire do not show up.
-I'm assuming Marketplace is filtering my content based on hardware. Any fix?
-I downloaded the Flash 10.1 apk from the web. It installs successfully, but the programs that use it no longer load (the browser crashes when you try and open it.)
-I downloaded skyfire using the apk, but it is sluggish. Maybe skyfire does not use the hardware acceleration properly?

BTW, I am coming from a Vogue that is dying. But I never installed XDAndroid on the Vogue. I did unlock and install a custom ROM on the Vogue, but I'm not a power user

Thanks for any suggestions.
