[3/6/2010] Google Android for TP2 CDMA [In Dev]

[MrPippy]

Hi everyone, didn't know civic was going to release a build with this RIL but it's good to see it getting some testing. It still has bugs, but when it works, it works

I'm not sure what causes it to not work sometimes (when the phone boots into airplane mode), but I think it might be linked to WinMo's data connection staying open. Before booting into Linux, try stopping the Data Connection in the Comm Manager.

I also don't know whether having a SIM card inserted matters or not. I've had my Sprint SIM in, but it isn't activated (and I haven't done any GSM unlocking).

Market: I'm pretty sure I know why the Market isn't working: the RIL isn't reporting a IMEI, which should be fixable.

Geolocation: Yeah, the cellular geolocation shows up as Switzerland. I just hardcoded that in when I was trying to debug something and needed a LAC/CID to put in. Actual CDMA geolocation would be way cool but it's not something we have on the other CDMA phones, so I wouldn't hold your breath.


Thanks everyone for the donations, and I'll be making a new thread within a day or two.
