just be patient, it will boot
the first boot is always the longest, mine took almost 5 minutes to boot all the way the first time

same for you, just keep waiting, it will eventually get there
however, if it takes more than 10-15minutes and you're still at that same screen then something is wrong.
just reformat your microsd card to FAT32 and extract the contents of the zip file directly onto the microsd card

I think I'll take this opportunity to de-lurk to say: WOW, awesome job! I just started this up on a Verizon TP2 running the 12/21 mighty rom. Booted just fine and looks great! I got the audio errors on boot, but I'm sure it's just a matter of time.

Edit: Just started Bejeweled and it plays just fine. I have no idea how to properly exit Android apps. Thanks again, this is all very cool. :)

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/21

This is pretty COOL!!!

I love the ability to boot droid on my TP2, but after it boots and I go through the setup all i get is the time and unlock screen. I can't seem to get it off that screen. Any ideas? After the first install and boot i did see a home screen with folders but i think it timed out to a lock screen.

I think the rom is reading the sim card slot, i had these same options as well and i also have an unlocked sim card. when placing calls they were from my sprint number and not my t-mobile number. If it was roaming gsm or in my case actually using gsm my t-mobile number would of shown up when calling. I do think this rom was originally gsm like many custom roms we flash but it has to have some tweaked settings. I wonder who are making these ports. Just my 2 cents

Ya that makes sense to me now. I was able to get connected again during another boot. But this time instead of it saying (green service) vodaphone nl it just says (no service) vodaphone nl. but I am connected to a network of some kind. No data or SMS even though it reports the SMS as being sent.

What I have been doing to exit or go back a page is just use the volume down button... It was the only way I could do anything at all in the OS.

Yes it does time out to a lock screen with the clock.
On VZW just press the display on/off button and it should reactivate the touch screen input, you can then slide to unlock.

If that screen is not responding to your touches, just press the power button(on top) once and then you will be able to slide the lock(on left side) towards right. As somebody mentioned above, the power button just turns of the touch'ability.

As I mentioned earlier, I did boot it successfully.. what I was mentioning about the error message while booting. Are you not getting that message before the X screen comes up?

Yes, we all have that error seen at the last bit of linux before seeing the android X splash screen.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/21

This is beginning to look amazing!!! As much as I love windows mobile, Android is really cool to have. Keep up the amazing work and I can't wait to be booting into a fully functioning android soon :smile:

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/21

Okay, it finally booted up after wiping(not formatting) the SD card, so now it's beautiful. I love it and shall watch it's progress day by day. I'm excited.
