the question is.. are they still developing the kernel for tp2? since this phone is getting older and older

but i still love the 4 row keyboard! How can I check for new kernel? Do I have to revisit and check for availability or theres some sort of auto update built into the xdandroid?
Secondly, any suggestion for battery off ebay?

Last problem with the android side, sometimes my phone is unable to turn on? is that roofs problem or more like the kernel problem? any suggestion for rootfs?

Thanks heaps

Yes, of course they're still developing the kernel. New one was out May 4th...

Pretty sure there's a link in the first post of this thread, and I definitely link to it in all my build threads... but the autobuild service will always be the place to get the latest and greatest kernels.

Also, I'm not sure if you had a horrible accident and lost a row or what... but my TP2 has a full 5-row keyboard

.

As for a battery, anything that's not extremely cheap. They'll work, but they'll die quickly. Spend at least $10.

If you're talking about the SoD condition in low service areas, that's fixed - you can try replacing pieces yourself, but I recommend waiting until the new build is out. It's gonna be a huge update...

lolol i just realize that my tp2 has 5 row keyboard.
really hope that they will release a flawless kernel soon, since im liking android now, and cant afford new phones

However, latest kernel that seems stable to me is the 1253, and that kernel is like back in early jan build...

1253? Why so old? I recommend that kernel to people using a GSM network on a CDMA device (there's a bug that was introduced after 1253...)

However, you appear to be on Sprint - so why don't you use newer kernels? Newer kernels work great for me. Far from 'flawless', but definitely good.

Yea, Im using GSM on my Sprint TP2, since I'm outside of the USA.

Cam doesn't work on 1253, that kernel predates the cam code as I've stated previously.

If your wifi doesn't work, make sure the modules you have matches the kernel.

Don't ask for ETA's please - I could just make one up arbitrarily, but it would be in no way based on reality. This is a project driven by individuals donating their free time - so there's no such thing as a 'deadline', and I for one am in no position to be setting them.

1253 doesn't have USB tethering patch either... why is this so hard to understand? You go back to an old kernel, surprise the new features don't work... Amazing.

No, the clocks problem has still not been fixed. Many have tried and lost many hours of their life tracing, and still cannot find it. Not sure what can be done to help trace either, sorry...

Yeah, I respect every single one who make the android can run on our tp2, and i want you to know that.

I just have a little curious about new release.
I am using 1253 because it fix my need about "lost signal" problem.
And you know that i just a newbie, i come to android just 2 or 3 week, and in fact i really don't know 1253 doesn't have usb tethering( i's googled about that

)
heh, i still have a lot thing to learn
thanks

I am also using 1253 kernal and I still have a lot to learn as well. The applications I downloaded from the net, I could make it to run ( I put the .apk file in the same folder in the andboot/ Application folder along with utube and all ) But did not work. Is this also a pending issue ? And my download in the market place is taking forever is there a bug in the Marketplace as well.
Thanks for DEV team for all your hard work
