Double check your startup.txt file. This has happened a lot recently where people had two instances of the force_cdma option in their startup.txt. Delete the first one that says force_cdma=0, then use the droid launcher utility to force cdma.

Isn't MGJDroidUtil still not supposed to be used? It corrupts the startup.txt quite frequently... I know they were talking about updating it. I wouldn't use it ATM.

The update functions are broken and should not be used. As far as using it to select keyboard type, force CDMA, and force hardware 3D, I believe it can still be used. I tested it on my RHOD500, but my data connection has been somewhat flaky. I keep having to switch back and forth between airplane mode to get data back.

I'll give it a try just editing startup.txt, but I like to test things the way the majority of people are going to be using the phone as well. Since everyone is accustomed to using that startup tool, I prefer to use it as well and only edit startup.txt directly when I have to.

Does anyone actually have the Sprint Rhodium 400 working with the 9/26 package? If so, please post your startup.txt.

I have the same problem where it does not find a network. All previous builds work fine. I removed the extra force_cdma from my startup.txt and launch with haret.exe, but no dice.

set ramsize 0x10000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set mtype 2292
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmts_calib=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78 clock-7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 force_cdma=1 gsensor_axis=2,1,3 pm.sleep_mode=2 acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=716800 rel_path=andboot hw3d.force=1 physkeyboard=rhod400 rel_path=Androids/TP2Ref north_am_dialing=1"
boot

Just ignore the rel_path and north_am_dialing statements. I also think there's some old stuff in there... like pmem.extra I don't think is used, pm.sleep_mode, or the clock-7x00 statements. I guess I should try to trim the fat from my startup, but if it works I generally just go with it.

Not sure why, but it worked. Reduced the CPU speed to 604, and deleted the Rel_Path argument, and back in business! Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
Everytime I bootup android, I see a new FSCK file in the root of the storage card. This can get annoying, plus not sure if its safe to delete?
Anyone share their experience?
Thanks

I have Sprint TP 2 and having same problem of getting no network when I boot to Andorid with Haret.exe. What do you mean by force cdma? Is there a simple solution that a newbie can do? Please explain in simple step by step. Thank you.

Okay, I figured out how to change CDMA force. But it didn't work. Please help!

I hope this will be helpful to someone. I had Mighty Rom installed on my TP2, so this Android file wouldn't work. I flashed to Iron Rom, now Andorid file loads up. Just need to fix some minor problems (as mentioned on above post).
