For all of you having problems with it, obviously #1 make sure your microSD card is CLEAN and formatted FAT32.

#2, download the build to your computer. then hook up your TP2 to your cpu via usb cable. select disk drive mode, and then Unrar/Unzip it to your microsd card via your computer, ie, extract to... F: or E: or whatever the Drive name is of your microsd card connected to your computer is.

Originally I tried unzipping it to the card via the card and via storage memory and i was NEVER able to get it running until i unzipped it to the card via my computer/usb cable.

when you see the multi colored X tap it a few times, wait 2 min, tap a few more times, wait 2 min, etc.

I have used the microsd card that came with the original TP, on the 1st time it boots it takes ~5-7min, after that it takes 2-3min.

Good luck!!!!

My android works just fine.. but what is it with the horrible screen calibration.. I can barely get it to unlock at the unlock screen..

The latest build is way worst then the one before it screen calibration wise..

my android works fine as well. the first time i kept it in its folder in the root of the card and i got an error about rootfs or something. i moved the contents of the folder to the root and put everything else in a folder i created and it boots for me.

im using an 8gb kingston class 4 card

EDIT: i wish sound worked. i want to play with Arnold Sounds lol

open your startup.txt, change the msmts_calib to :=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78

save

reboot HaRET

enjoy.

Well tried to get it going on my 16GB Class 6 card, no dice... tried to clean the card and copy it on... no dice. That 16GB card just didn't work for me.

Used an old 2GB microSD I had, formatted it with FAT32, copied the contents of the android zip file on it, launched Haret... took 6-7 mins the first time then failed... had to remove battery and put it back in... but then it worked good, takes 2-3 mins to boot up.

Really excited about this, I hope it pans out!!

yeah my 4gb class 4 wouldn't work, just ordered an 8gb class 6 in hope that'll work. Someone over at XDA has it working on theirs so should be ok fingers crossed!

Its just so puzzling why some cards have problems, my error stated it "failed to mount sd card" and there have been a few people experiecing this. can anyone perhaps explain it?

I have a 4gb class 2 Sandisk HC card and I was able to extract the zip to the root of the drive and boot to the animated multi colored X but did not get any farther than that. I also did not completely wipe the card, so I will try again with everything on the card still and see what happens.
