Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

[00_MACKIE_00]

I click on haret and it says loading Linux, I thought this was Android?

Well, I will admit that I have a little sympathy for some of the n00bs who come in here asking basic questions. I've never been a search nazi. After all, we've all been there (heh, I remember the day way back when I asked someone what the HardSPL unlock was )... so, again, we've all been there. And anyone who has ever joined a brand new forum out there on the net knows that sometimes it's hard to navigate and find what you're looking for at first blush

That being said, if you're competent enough to find the proper thread to post your question in, it's only common sense that you would also read the first post or two in that same thread before asking anything. Well, it seems like that would be common sense to me, at least...

I've come to the conclusion that the people that get yelled at about searching first generally have no clue what they're doing in the first place. Otherwise they would have searched/read the FAQ on their own first, right?

I think if you are here then you probably were in the touch pro 2 part of the forum. You should have some idea how this works.

This also was just started so it shouldn't be that hard to find what you need. If you just joined the touch pro 2 forum you will see 300 pages and won't know what to do. With 2 pages here it should be easy to catch up. Thanks to all the repeated questions this part is already 3 times larger than it needs to be.

I say we could start this over and just keep all the posts explaining what to do so everyone can find things. But if we did that I'm sure it will end up how it is right now.

I generally try to read up heavily before I attempt to do anything potential harmful to my phone. I was asking a basic question because if it was too hard/too much didn't work I wasn't going to bother. I figured(like most I assume) asking a quick question is a lot easier than swimming through 100 pages of replies.

Just download flyers' package that is linked on the first post and then unzip it to the root of your storage card. Once that's done, just load the haret.exe app that's packed in with it and you're off
