Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Damn .. this thing rocks !

- Google Maps navigation also works though GPS is buggy/crashes.
- Google Earth isn't working

Overall, cool experience. Great Job by the developers. Thumbs UP.

Hate to break it to you but GPS isn't buggy, it flat out doesn't work! The location you are seeing is from Cell Towers not GPS.

It's buggy cuz it isn't actually GPS, it's using Wifi/cell tower triangulation to pick up your location

In fact, it's not a bad idea to go into settings and turn off GPS since it's a battery hog and isn't properly functioning anyways. Might get you better battery life for the time being

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

I have used the other versions from 95CIVIC and this one is taking way longer to install. So far I am on about 10 minutes. The last ones were loaded all under about 3 minutes or so. Is this common for this new 3/10 version?

LOL I had the same question and finally figured it out...

What I did was to download a file browser for the market, then went to the AndroidApps/media folder and installed the PickLiveWallpapers application. I was also needed to allow installing third-party non-market apps.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

Ok, so I downloaded Flyers zip, unzipped it to the root, and tried to run HaRET...

Says "Booting Linux" the progress bar fills up and it vibrates twice, then freezes.

Can anyone point me to what I'm doing wrong in this process?

EDIT: When I say "unzipped it to the root" I mean that I unzipped and moved everything from the nested folder in the ZIP file to the root of my SD, I didn't leave the Droid 3.9.10 folders.

I just tried this for the first time myself today. Downloading Flyers zip(million thanks man!!) extracted it and put it on the root of the sd card. there are two folders in there so your best bet is take all of the folders and put them in the root of the sd card. I wasnt able to get it working leaving them in the Droid 3.9.10 folder. But it works fine now. Also removed the sim card and data worked as noted on the first page but was able to put it back in on 2nd boot and still get data. Thanks to everyone for this great project.
