Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

i seen this on the wiki over at xda...theres a link which takes you to a thread where theres a cab to basicly have a shortcut of haret in the start menu (w/ a icon of andriod, whatever bot)

haha on a side note, a friend of a friends cuz lil niece seen it too :mrgreen: nah im messin on that (it sounded right in my head but when i read what i wrote it sounded funny 2 me)

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Give this cab a try, places it in the root of the start menu. Just threw it together, if theres a want for it i will start updating cab as Mr. Pippy releases!

This cab installs android into root of storage card and creates a shortcut in root of start menu.
Android with Shortcut

This cab only creates a shortcut in start menu to haret located in root of storage card, for those with android already on storage card.
Android Shortcut Only

Hey bike it just might be me, but I dl your cab file to my sd card and tryied to open it and it keeps telling my it was unsuccessful. I used total commander file explore and pocket rar. any ideas thanks

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

I have fexplorer ext installed and you could make a .exe into a shortcut on the start menu and I used icon changer to use a nice icon i found on xda

I am sure there was heavy sarcasm there based on who the original post was from. :)

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

You must extract with 7zip, if you did try dl again, should work fine. Which cab are you trying btw?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Bike, this is awesome bro! Thanks!

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Did you take out your SIM card before booting Android?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

I keep getting Touch the andriod to begin. When i touch it, nothing happens, its frozen on that screen. I copied the files to root and launced haret.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

I think i got it, i was booting it when the phone was flat on desk. i had i had to pick it up and do the calibration of the screen.

Wirelessly posted (Opera/9.7 (WindowsMobile; PPC; Opera Mobi/35267; U; en; Presto/2.1.1))

it would be number of different issues that cause problems like that. sorry i dont want ask 8 different questions trying to finds a solution. start with a spare sdcard class 2 or 6,formatted fat32 with no other info on it. paste everything from flyers all in one zip from flyers post in pippys page 1 post.

hope this help....

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Had my first experience with Android last night running 95-civic's 2/27/2010 build. Had no problems making calls but obviously no data or wifi.

Formatted my SD card and just extracted XDANDROID 01.03.10, copied rootfs and startup.txt from first post to SD root directory and zImage-modules-20100311_194359 renaming file according to instructions.

First boot into ANDROID...
WiFi- WPA connection = Flawless
Google - Sign in & Sync = Flawless
Voice Calls - No joy in mudville :/

Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Operators - Just sits there with the search animation with no results.

Did I miss something?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

did you remove your sim card

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

its weird...first time i ran android w/o the sim it worked like a charm..so i tried it again..with a sim in..and still working..anyone had the same experience? is it bad runnin android with the sim still in the phone?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

awesome, exactly what i was looking for. I already have it set up, so i'll definitely try the shortcut only cab! And YES you should start making cabs for latest releases, it would help a lot of noobs out that don't realize where to put the files and which to grab. People already like the zipped up files that someone else does, so a cab would be even better cause it has a shortcut. I think that's a bonus for the gsm tp2 thread at xda. People shout cab and everyone flocks ha. Hell, even i'd download it if it came out before i saw the new release.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

I have placed all the android files from flyers zip into a folder named "Androidfs" on the root of my SD card.

I added rel_path=Androidfs to the startup.txt file in the "Androidfs" fil before the last set of quotes and I am getting an error when trying to load haret saying rel_path is invalid key.

Anyone able to help? besides saying put the files on the root of the sd.

Thanks!

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

MrPippy, I think we should add the following text to post 1 (in BIG RED LETTERS on top):


NOTE: IF YOUR PHONE CURRENTLY HAS A SIM CARD IN THE GSM SLOT, REMOVE IT BEFORE BOOTING ANDROID IF YOU WANT DATA. Some users have reported successful data even with the SIM card in, but it is highly recommended that you remove it, especially the first time.


^I think that would solve a great portion of the questions in this thread!

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

if ill could charge the bat that it for me no more winmo for me everything working as stated in post one :headbang:thanks:headbang:

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Remove the rel_path=androidfs text from your startup file, and then place all Android files in a folder on the storage card called 'andboot' (no quotes, all lowercase). Then cut the rootfs.img file from the andboot folder and paste it to the root of the storage card and leave the rest of the files in the andboot folder. Then run haret

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Thanks Esch! :headbang:

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

does anybody know when the next release will come out and will it fix how long the battery lasts?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

No idea, nobody knows. You can check the first post, theres a changelog on it. :headbang:

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Wow, this is great. I haven't tried this since the early Civic builds.

I followed the first post, used the single zip file, extracted to root of SD. Ran Haret, everything works! Calls, sms, google maps, android market, email, etc. Now only if the camera would work, I'd be using this all day...

Great work!

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

When it's ready and maybe. :P

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

I had problems with an SD card also. I had to add msm_sdcc.msmsdcc_fmax=14000000
to the startup.txt to slow down accesses to my card then everything was fine. Without it I was corrupting the file system on the card bad enough that sometimes I had to reformat, and it almost never made it into android successfully without it. Don't know how bad that affects my performance, but it doesn't seem bad.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Well they added directions for getting it to boot while in a folder, so I followed those. I guess I'll go back to using a dedicated SD card. I'd like to have it on my 8gb sdhc but android generates too many junk files to keep track of.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

didn't work.hung at linux boot 15 times.yelp. i gave it a fair try.no forget it.google should help with this.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Wow, that is a pretty funny. All you need working now is the camera to use this all day?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

I think I might have to wait for the charging issues to be fixed :-P besides...I have other things I do during the day than use my phone...thats a long time staring at a small screen!

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

You mean kinda like this?

Its right at the bottom of page one. Anyone that gets through any kind of browsing on the first page and scrolls to the bottom to click the "Reply" button has to scroll right over this. Guess some people still have a problem with red. It's been there for most of the birth of this thread, and now it's here on Page 100 in conjunction with yours. No Excuses people.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2
 

Not yet. I have read that there are a very few people that it worked right out of the gate though. (Note. this is on the FAQ on page 1)

Sounds like when USCC has an Android phone the fix will come sometime there after. I have worked on this personally for many hours with no luck.
