Hmmm, well nothing worked lol. It booted into Android, but with no functionality. No signal, etc, nothing.

Does this half to be run off a blank sd card? And does it need to be run directly from the root directory of the card?

Any tips anyone can think of?

If you're using a sprint TP2, take out your SIM card.

Android (the .cab) needs to be installed (to the root) of the SD card. (it will auto install there)

sometimes it will boot up into airplane mode.

Once up and running, you should have connectivity (calls/text).. you'll need to go into settings > wireless & networks
make sure airplane mode is not checked
then go to settings > wireless & network settings > mobile networks
make sure data enabled is checked then go to > access point names
enter any text for name, anything for aaa and whatever you want for
server.
mine says:
name: snarf
aaa: blah blah snarf snarf
server: (typed the word "none")

this should get you working.

I hope this helps :)

Instructions
  • Thanks to flyers2114, there is a single zip file you can download that has all the files included. Otherwise, the long instructions are below
  • Download babijoee's latest XDANDROID release, and unzip it to the root of your SD card.
  • Download the latest kernel package from glemsom's kernel autobuild site. Untar the file (it's like unzipping -- 7-zip in windows can do this), rename zImage.xxxxxxxxx to zImage, and replace all zImage and modules* files in the root of your sdcard with these.
  • Download the rootfs zip attached to this post and unzip it. Move the file (should be called rootfs.img) to the root of your SD card, replacing the XDANDROID rootfs.
  • Download the startup.txt attached to this post, and copy it into the root of your SD card.
  • Using File Explorer, navigate to the Storage Card and run HaRET.exe to boot Android
  • Note that if you are upgrading from 95civic's builds, you should remove all Android-related files from your SD card except for data.img

The kernel autobuild site isn't working. Any alternatives???

Success, I cleaned off the sd card of any windows mobile junk. Loaded all the android files from the zip file directly on the root of the blank sd card. Booted into winblows, ran haret.exe, and all is running great.

I miss not having sense like on my Hero, any tips on making sense run on this?

Thanks so far, hopefully this helps someone with a similar issue.

Download Android Version 2.1 w/ Sense UI from reffermates post and you will be fine.

How long is the load screen suppose to be??

I copied all the files to the root on my SD card and booted it up. It created teh data.img and then it just shows the XDandroid animated screen forever and never advances.

Alright, I downloaded the 2.1, and everything works great, after I removed the sim card. Only real issue is the market. It reboots and crashes whenever I try and run the market. Anyone else get this?

The Sense build has problems when accessing the market.

This is a known issue. No fix as of yet that I'm aware of.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 
So I downloaded the .rar file and everything loads. I removed the sim card and no signal. When I go to the access point and enter the name aaa and server "internet.com" when i hit save or try to back out i the message that "the APN can not be empty". I have rebooted several times and read tons of threads that loop on to many different site and I am not sure if i am missing something.

Thanks

Hi,

I must say finding this thread is a dream come true for me. Just wondering if anyone was able to get Android installed and functioning properly on their TP2? If so can you walk through the steps with me from start to finish? Thanks in advance.
