How is android for the tp2 compared to the version for the tp1?

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

If I install Android, I dont think I can run iGo8, TT7 and Garmin. Hence no for me.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Correct. Running the Android OS means you aren't going to be running WinMo apps. And before you ask.. No. No iphone apps or Palm apps either.
One thing to note though is you won't be installing Android. Just running it for now. When you reboot the phone, you're back to good ol WinMo!

Looks like some of our prayers are about to be answered- see here thanks to 95-Civic!

hell yeah

No CDMA data yet; but great work nonetheless.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

This is all very exciting, can someone detail the steps to get this running on my Verizon TP2? Would I be right in thinking that this in effect makes it a dual boot phone and I can switch between Android and the default windows mobile?

Thanks

with google mpas navigation coming out, for me, it blows anything else out of the water! with street view optional and voice guidance, and it being free, thats won me!

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Read the first post. Detail the steps... :violent1:

Jeez. If someone can't read enough to get this going on their own, they have no right even messing around with this stuff. At least try and come back with specific questions for Pete's sake. Would you like something like this:

1) Open your microwave
2) Place your phone in the microwave
3) Set timer for 10 seconds
4) Press Start

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

maybe if your steps were more clear, people wouldn't have such a hard time getting this going. You forgot a vital step:

1) Open your microwave
2) Place your phone in the microwave
3) close microwave door
4) Set timer for 10 seconds
5) Press Start

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

your one to talk and i dont want to be to rude but, you forgot one other step

1) Open your microwave
2) Place your phone in the microwave
3) close microwave door
4) Set timer for 10 seconds
5) Press Start
6) Eat with fork & knife

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

1) Open your microwave

7) call ambulance

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

How would you do that, you just ate your phone!!! :violent1:

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

It's like the old saying...having your cake and eating it too. But in this case having your android and eating it too.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

This is definitely some good news!

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Your last step is incomplete:

1) Open your microwave
2) Place your phone in the microwave
3) close microwave door
4) Set timer for 10 seconds
5) Press Start
6) Eat with fork & knife
7) call ambulance (with someone else's phone since you just ate yours)

EDIT: dangit, secondtwiggy beat me to it!

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

haven't tested. Has anyone/

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

lol!

On topic, that Civic guy seems to be on the right track. Hopefully it's just figuring out the software and there are no hardware catches.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

I thought you could eat an eclair?

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Yes, back on topic! It has been installed and is working great, based on the limitations that Civic said it would have. Looking forward to his future builds.

I haven't read this anywhere, on this or any other of the Android threads but is the theory that once the build is a stable as it can get that it could then be flashed to the internal memory just like the other ROM's available here it will it always be boot from SD card situation.

PS. Anyone got any popcorn as I have an empty microwave that needs to be put to use.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

it works like the others before. couldnt realy tell a difference other than it was more responsive.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

I am running Mighty ROM Impact, and it will not load completely... do you need to be running a specific ROM in order to get this running?

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

im runing stock uscc. havent got the nerve up to flash to a custom rom yet. had bad experiences with motorola phones.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

I'm running MightyRom Impact as well and I've had these builds work fine.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

I even disabled Sense, and then extracted the zip file to the root of my SD card, then run the Haret exe. It loads the Linux executable, and then stops on "17.032714 Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer derefere"

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

I had issues at first, but it works great after I switched to an old class 2 2GB memory card I had lying around.

I Have The Topaz January 7th On My Phone. It Runs Great But No Sound Of Course.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

According to this website android is working on the Touch HD, and should be available for tp2 and diamond 2.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

I'm running the app on a USCC CDMA TP2 and it won't make calls or connect to the web. Did I download the wrong version???

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

There isn't a version for our Touch Pro 2's that support voice or data, as far as I know. I'm using the 12/24 release and it's functional, but no connectivity yet.. hopefully this changes soon as I'd really love a NAND version of Android :D

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

It is still very buggy on CDMA. Data does not work. Calls kind of work. I can make calls, but hear nothing.

See this link for the best CDMA build I know of. Be sure to check what works and what doesn't.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

calls do work on cdma. if you are not getting sound its becuase you did not start haret while on a call in windows mobile.

you all really need to read

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Here's a better CDMA thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616483

Still, just as buggy as everything. Once something that's a little better than the one in my original post, I'll update

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

the great thing about all this development is that as soon as the tp3 is available, it will be easy to port since most of the upfront work is done. i did notice a little lag using the phone in the youtube video, hopefully a stable rom won't have the same issues.

if anyone has an android device and has used an iphone for extended periods of time, are the apps as good? yelp, web browsing, etc?

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

uhhh no.

if they make a tp3 there better be a better proccessor in there. So they would pretty much have to redo everything

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

528 Mhz.... What a joke for a HTC's business phone/best Sprint can offer.](*,)

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Got everything working. It took about 3 tries, but is working fine, including calling. So what all does this build allow one to do? Just tinker with it? As there is no data or wifi, not much else can be done.

Re: Android, it's alive!.. (2.0.1) - Updated 12/24
 

Ya it's pretty much just to mess around with for now. Once it's fully functional I will switch over to it. But it might be a while.
