You want MORE attention? There's been like 30 or 40 pages across 2 threads since last night.

Yeah, gen.y dual boot needs to be updated to take account of the android->andboot change. If you want to use it at this point, you'll need to boot from the root of your sdcard.

Also, someone else said the andboot folder didn't work. That might be the case, if MrPippy didn't build the rootfs off a recent repository. I'd be surprised by this, though.

After launching Haret.exe the following error is displayed, "Something used micropklt_lcd_ctrl. This function should no longer be used." This error is displayed repeatly until the device crashes.

If so, could you let me know if you found a work-around?

I've tried five different SD cards ranging from 2gb to 8gb. The only build I've been able to successfully launch was the one released on 1/25/09. Thanks again in advance for your help.

Other people were having that problem quite a bit a few weeks ago. I think it's been solved, but I don't know what the solution was. There was a great deal of discussion of it over at xda-developers... you might go slog through some posts there to figure it out.

Thanks to the OP, Mr. Pippy, and everyone involved in the Android ports!!! This recent build is amazing!!! Very fast and a lot of things are working flawless.

One odd thing to me that just started happening is on intial startup it will stay in landscape until I finish setting up the device.

Mine starts in landscape too. I just slide the keyboard out and slide it back in.

+1 on that. sliding the keyboard works to get it oriented properly. What phone was this ported from? If its ported from, say, the droid eris that would explain why it might orient to landscape instead of initially recognizing the keyboard is in and putting it in portrait.

Thanks Mazzakre for the info, I tried using the old rootfs file which now I can get past the splash screen (animated X) to the setup page. I can touch the Droid figure and get to the next screen but then the device stops responding to touchscreen. Also if I press any key it takes me back to the Droid figure.

Took me about 3 loads before it stopped soft-resetting on me. Keep at it and it may boot up after a few tries.

Does anyone know why Gen.Y boots things so fast? Its loading my windows rom in half the time it normally takes. This just keeps getting better and better.
