I just caught up on this thread yesterday and started playing around with this morning's civic build. Confirmed that this works on Sprint TP2 and that voice in/out work. I did call my VM first and then ran Haret.exe so I'm not sure if this step was needed. I also needed to go into the Android settings phone options to have it join/discover the cell network.

Pretty snappy overall. I did notice that sliding answer for incoming calls was difficult and I had to use the talk button. Sliding the to see the dial buttons during a call didn't work for me either.

Really looking forward to having either data or wifi working as this adds so much more value to the TP2.

It says "No Service," but you should still be able to make and receive calls, no data though.

I saw mention on the thread that someone got an ATT SIM card and had that working on the Android build.

2 other questions:

1. Did you have to unlock security or anything else to get the SIM card to work with Android on TP2?

2. Has anyone else looked into cheap pay-as-you-go services that use SIM card?

I tried making a call and the dialer just disappears. I don't know if i need my sim unlocked or not but everything loads up just when i hit call it disappears

How long should this take to load on a VZW TP2? I run HaRET and it scrolls the code, but then stops and nothing happens. I unzipped the zip file onto a blank micro-SD card, then ran HaRET from the card.... anything I am missing?

Thanks in advance.

Like many others have said, it can take up to 10 minutes.

Reformatted the card to FAT32, loaded the 1/25 build, and booted just fine. I am blown away! Can't' wait for full functionality.

did you call your voicemail and hit haret up to get the awesome ability to make and recieve calls?

I just did i while ago and was very impressed, i called google 411 and bing 411 both worked perfect

tested calling my voicemail and it wasent able to detect my fingre press on the ui dialpad and times out at 28 seconds

Id like to see a succesfull data test and my money is in the donation bin

so do you still have to initiate a call before you run haret or are you not supposed to have to do that. I can dial and people can hear me but I can not hear them. I thought the new build meant you don't need to call before going into android (i'm probably wrong though)
