Does your use the same 916 number?

Sorry, ran out of battery, let me try again once my phone is charged and will update you.

Edit: Just checked and in my case it was calling using 501 area code which is Little Rock, AR. I think google voice uses there nearest server phone # (Little Rock in my case since my number belongs to AR) eventhough I am in South Florida. Does your number belong to Sacramento, CA by any chance?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

I got android to boot with data and calls after I took out my SIM card. Problems: The sound on phone calls is very weak...people sound extremely far away. I've used the volume button to raise it as high as possible, but people still sound very far away. Gmail: Gmail wont sync for some reason, don't know why.

Important: Is there an application or a way to browse my SD card in android boot? Something similar to file explorer for Winmo? I can't find anything.

Sidenote: Anyone want to post a few of their favorite apps? Thanks

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

how long does this take to boot?

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Wow, awesome work on this. I decided to try it out today and for the most part its gone well. I'm on vzw and 3g data seems to be working although its finicky (on some startups it works, others it doesn't) however once it's working, it works fine for the entire time I'm running android. Wifi worked right out of the gate as well without removing my sim card or any such thing. Texting also worked right away however the keyboard symbols are not lined up correctly, doesn't seem like this would be too difficult an issue to fix so hopefully somebody does that soon. I installed the live backgrounds app from the sdcard, unfortunately it seems like when I try to run one its taking up too much sys memory or something, and the live backgrounds never load. Phone calls also worked, however so far my attempts to sync gmail contacts has been unsuccessful. Unfortunately google maps has not worked so far. One other weird thing, when the phone initially boots its in landscape, but after selecting messages or another app it reverts to portrait. Overall great work, can't wait until sound is working on this!

Just search for file explorer in the market ... Astro File Explorer is the one I use FYI.
