You should read the first post of the GBX thread.

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/android-tp...3-7-build.html

It tells you how to do things. Like copy CSV files. Kinda necessary for sound in this (TESTING) build. Yes, it's still in testing - mainly because of the need to copy the CSV files to the root of your card.

tks for answering, i'm a newbie so i don't know about it, can u help me to make sound for my phone and tell me more about android os when i use dual os on my phone plz

We were all newbies at some point, with that said, we will help you once you read the thread.

Very tough to see the calibration white marks on tiny white font/black background, very tough. If your phone boots up to the water background but you can't slide the unlock, then your calibration is WAY off, reboot & copy the file!!!!!!!

You can accurately calibrate your touch screen after booting up using the method here: HOW TO: Calibrate your Touch Screen on Newer Kernels in GBX0C - xda-developers

What kind of difficulty level is this? I read the first page...could a nub handle this?

Start with FRX07.1. Once you get the hang of it, move up to GBX0C. Then, when you've decided WinMo needs to go, OMGB all the way :D.

The SD installs are really quite easy... GBX has some extra steps, but they're not difficult by any means. There's 0 brick risk using the SD method as well - which is why I recommend starting with it.

I finally got the FRX07 on the first post to work last night...the WiFi won't work. i tried turning it on in windows mode and then rebooting. when I pick a network it just says remembered, secured with WEP.

Please read the FAQ.

WEP is horribly insecure, you might as well run an open network... Literally. Use WPA2!!

Re: Simple Guide 2012 Android on SD card! FLASH 11, 4 Steps, TP2 DL lnks (FRX07.1)

Complete newbie, but I haven't seen question elsewhere and this is a starter sticky, so: Installed FRX07, installed a bunch of apps, all fine. Except WIFI doesn't work at all. Saw post suggesting might have to create file to copy MAC address at boot, so created and copied file. Then I went to Dev Tools to use the suggested command...except I don't have Dev Tools, or it's not visible. There is a Superuser app, but no way to run it in command mode that I can see. What to do now?

Hi, total noob here, so bear w me please. First, I have read and researched a *whole* lot on here before posting this, and honestly my head's swimmming a bit from it all lol. Couple of questions I haven't found the answers to yet:

1--> What would be the incresed difficulty in starting with GBX0C instead of FRx07.1? Reason I ask is bc from everything Ive read on here, it sounds like GBX0C 3.3.8 w/the .39 kernel is the best combo of advancement + stability (based esp on the "[TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0C 2.3.7 Build" thread posts #512-520 + me having a nexus 7).

2--> To install the above vers of GBX0C, would I still follow the wonderfully-detalied intstructions in "Simple Guide 2012 Android on SD card! FLASH 11, 4 Steps, TP2 DL lnks (FRX07.1)", but simply do the addt'l steps in "[TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0C 2.3.7 Build"?

3--> I plan on having my calls fwd'd to a backup VM phone while doing all this to my TP2. Would flashing a new ROM on my TP2 interfere w my calls being fwd'd? AND will I still be able to DE-fwd my calls after new ROM by dailing *720 like I normally do? (I think probly so, since I think thats a function of sprint, not my TP2, but thought Id ask just in case)

I'm sorry if this is too much in one post, I really am brand new to all this. But I am VERY excited at the prospect of my TP2 not freezing up all the time, since I really do like this phone. Thank you all in advance, tho!
