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

i had the same problem with my kingston 4gb card. i tried a 1 gb card and it worked fine. also my screen did freeze when it said shutting down. this is amazing, this is an awesome christmas gift

also this android thing seems to be a huge drain on the battery. i lost around 20-30% of my battery by being in android for a little under an hour i think. either way i really cannot wait to see this project through and even now the development is awesome. i used the voicemail call trick and was able to complete a call to my house. even though these are baby steps i am still so excited.

Everything is looking Real Nice! I just wish i knew how to get all the drivers to work and be able to switch between both. Android is cool to play with, but i can't see how this can compete with win mo for a power user like myself. Thanks to all who helped making this possible. Merry Christmas to All!

Did you guys lost the ringer after coming back to WM? I am using Mighty War ROM and lost the ringer after I run the Andriod. Seems like I have to hard reset again.

edit: its all good now, gave me a scare however.

I'm using a 2GB Sandisk that I usually use when flashing roms, but I hadn't thought of formatting it with the phone. I tried but it says the card is "damaged and unable to be formatted" (which is odd because I never have problems with that card). Gonna soft reset with the card in and try again. If that doesn't work I guess I'll try dropping the files into an android folder on my main SD card and see if that does the trick.

Edit: Must be something wrong with that first card, putting the files on my 8GB SD did the trick. Guess I better stop using the other card to flash roms.

that happened to me. just remove the battery or press the soft reset button and then restart it.

It looks to me like it is having an issue with your SD card.
It says that it fails to mount the card. So I would try another card.
Also its not reporting a high speed SDHC card when it discovers it.
A high speed card is REALLY needed for any sort of usability.

Yes, it will drain a good amount of battery seeing as the screen is on @ 100% brightness and you cannot turn off the screen. The back light is what eats up a ton of battery power on any device.

yea this is going along nicely. my dream would be a fully working rom with android sense . i think its possible, just gonna take time. i wonder if you could build a barebone windows mobile rom and throw in a shortcut in the windows/startup folder to automaticly run haret at boot up. hmmmm...

merry xmas peeps
