help with project android launcher

[rglover1168]

Okay so I updated energy rom to the latest version today which gave me an oportunity to task 29 and delete all android files from storage and essentially start fresh with froyo 2.2 blaze. Same thing happened again after running the android utility the first time. I am some what of a noob when it comes to android on the tp2 but I think I can follow directions. Can someone explain this process like you are talking to a child. @arrrghhh you say to "copy startup.txt and rename it to default.txt or just keep the startup.txt where ever you launch haret from" I'm launching it from mjgdroidutil.exe in programs. I don't quite understand that statement. Also my startup.txt which is in storage card\andboot\ folder has not been changed to startup.txt~. Also where do you copy it too I hear to a different folder to the same folder. It would be helpful to have a step 1,2, and 3 type explanation because I'm just spinning my wheels. I also tried setting startup.txt to read only but that didn't work. I'm not sure if that is suppose to be done in addition to what already has been said or what. Help

You need to make the read-only adjustment BEFORE booting Android. Start with a new startup.txt, make that read-only. Then try again...

I wonder if MJGDroidUtil is causing the issue? I don't use it anymore, and haven't had the problem happen since...

here is what worked for me (THANK YOU FISHINGMEDIC)
1) uninstall all android folders from sd and from remove programs (under settings)

2) reinstall the cab and do a soft reset.

3) BEFORE running android go to sd and find andboot folder

4) copy startup.txt file and put in a dif folder so you can rename it
to default.txt

5) copy the file you just renamed and paste it into your andboot folder

6) launch Android

Since doing this I have been able to get android to boot up everytime. If you get a screen that asks something about running default click on it and it will boot up for you.
Thank Fishingmedic for telling me step by step how to do it

This problem is definitely being caused by MJGDroidUtil. Something about how it edits startup.txt causes the file to get wiped during the linux bootup. If you pay attention to the console you'll see something about it scanning the filesystem and finding a problem with the file. It then truncates the file to 0 bytes, deleting everything in it.
The solution is to manually edit the startup.txt with your keyboard layout and forcecdma options and run hatret manually.
