Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

I'm also wondering about the battery. someone said that his wifes hero dies fast. I don't think it is android that is draining the battery. My on-call phone for work is the Motorola Droid From Verizon and the battery lasts days. I think the battery not lasting long is just that HTC has crappy batteries(I love the phone). I could be wrong but its just my 2 cents.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Thanks to the OP, Mr. Pippy, and everyone involved in the Android ports!!! This recent build is amazing!!! Very fast and a lot of things are working flawless.

One odd thing to me that just started happening is on intial startup it will stay in landscape until I finish setting up the device.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

I'm sure if there was a way to turn the screen off instead of making it dim and black our batteries would last a lot longer..

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Great work, I've been following the posts here (and about the last 45 pages in the other thread), and just wanted to give some appreciation to the developer. All is working great, (on verizon). The only thing I've noticed is that the windows key doesn't work as a menu key or anything that I can tell for that matter, I had the same issue on the last build, so I'm not really concerned. I just haven't seen anyone else mention this and I was curious. Once the screen issues and sound get cleared up this is going to be an even better alternative to WM than I had imagined before. Great work guys!

yeah it took me 4 tries... wouldn't let me boot into home plus also. It eventually takes. good luck.

A tip for faster reboots is to turn off sense in windows.
