I can not get google voice to make outgoing calls. The calls terminates by its self before the call connects. Have you successfully made a call?

Thanks makkonen, I checked the follow forum but couldn't find anything regarding the "micropklt_lcd_ctrl" error:

Could you let me know if I'm looking on the right forum?

Thanks again for the help.

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..

A couple people have said that if you turn off auto dimming in winmo that it takes care of that.

And Mr. Pippy, nice build, so far I'm liking Android

+1....So if they perfect Android on the TP2, you still going to jump ship to the HD2??

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.

Mine starts in landscape too. I just slide the keyboard out and slide it back in. :headbang:

+1 on that. sliding the keyboard works to get it oriented properly. What phone was this ported from? If its ported from, say, the droid eris that would explain why it might orient to landscape instead of initially recognizing the keyboard is in and putting it in portrait.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

mind did the landscape thing, and I hit the windows key and it reoriented itself correctly

Yeah, gen.y dual boot needs to be updated to take account of the android->andboot change. If you want to use it at this point, you'll need to boot from the root of your sdcard.

Also, someone else said the andboot folder didn't work. That might be the case, if MrPippy didn't build the rootfs off a recent repository. I'd be surprised by this, though.

Other people were having that problem quite a bit a few weeks ago. I think it's been solved, but I don't know what the solution was. There was a great deal of discussion of it over at xda-developers... you might go slog through some posts there to figure it out.

I can confirm this method works fine for me.It lasted for me about 9 hours from a fully charged batt.
