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!

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.

Can't believe we've finally got a decent version of Android running on the TP2, but I'd like to know a few things...

*Import pim.vol
How do I import/convert my WM contacts (pim.vol) to Android, and what & where is the Android contacts file?

*Auto adjust Backlight and Screen Dim timeouts with Mortscript
I'd made a script to disable auto adjustment and screen-dimming timeouts via

RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "ACTimeout", 0)
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "ACTimeoutUnchecked", "0000003c")
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "BatteryTimeout", 0)
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "BatteryTimeoutUnchecked", "0000001e")
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "LightDetectOn", 0)
Run("\Storage Card\haret.exe")
Exit

which works flawlessly. However, to re-enable auto adjustment and screen-dimming timeouts upon StartUp via

RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "LightDetectOn", 1)
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "ACTimeout", "0000003c")
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "ACTimeoutUnchecked", 0)
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "BatteryTimeout", "0000001e")
RegWriteDWord( "HKCU", "\ControlPanel\BackLight", "BatteryTimeoutUnchecked", 0)
Exit

all is restored except for the BatteryPower screen dimming timeout of :30. It always returns at :10. Any ideas?

Hey Kain,

If you sync with Outlook you can export your contacts to csv then import them into a gmail account. I did it on a regular browser. After that, log in to gmail on your new android phone and your contacts are sucked right up or sync'd right up.
That's what I did and it worked flawlessly.

Cheers,

Bill

Or just setup Google Sync on WiMo:

This will sync your contacts/calendar to your Gmail account. This way you won't have to worry about keeping it synced between Android<->WiMo, since they'll both sync with Google.
