I will be testing and reporting back in an hour or so.

I think actually I said it. about 65 pages ago.

OK, now I pretty much am trying to be an ass.

cvasale: To disable automatic backlight control in WinMo, go to Settings -> System -> Power -> Backlight and deselect 'Auto Adjust Backlight'

I don't believe you need to turn off dimming (i.e. 'Turn off backlight if device is not used for x mins')

You are correct. You posted it on page 8 and Civic was page 36. Thanks to both of you for all of the great info.

I can confirm this works perfectly as long as you have the latest initramfs;

I have everything in a "Droidboot" folder and have had no problems.

There's gonna be a lot of posts on here if there's an update for every new kernel. Sometimes there are 4 or 5 in a day..

I had the info in the FAQ but forgot that MrPippy wasn't pointing them at a new initrd.gz, so they were using the one from the android build. So I updated the faq to represent that heh.

And on the updating a zip on every kernel, you took the words right out of my mouth.

I think this already got answered by Makkonen, but the Market was fixed in the RIL with the IMEI stuff in the rootfs.img in Post#1 of this thread. The rootfs.img that MrPippy gave Civic didn't have the IMEI stuff. So just make sure you have the proper one in there.

[makkonen]

I believe the problem is in the rootfs.img (specifically, the RIL contained therein). Change that.

That might or might not break other things. If it does... change them as well.

Or just change everything, but save your old data.img.
