Teradog, ran across this bored and wandering around. You nudged me in to trying out android again. Can not believe how far these great minds have taken this. Dont really feel the need for android but now i can play wordfued against the wife because i can. If we could only swap engines, id run this car forever. lol

If you have a Gmail account it imports all of your contacts calendars extra in the account sync feature under settings.

HI All, I have the Droid up and running on my TP2 and am getting most of the bugs worked out but wondering if there is a setting to fix the G sensor to operate correctly. It keeps changing the phone from landscape to portrait but in the wrong direction, like if i hold the phone up it goes landscape...... I found the setting to turn off the sensor but would like to have it work right if possible. Is there something i need to put in the startup.txt file to set it? Im this file XDAndroid 2.2 (rel 1.6).cab to install and launch. It lets you pick your phone, asks if you want it OC'd then creates this startup.txt file.

set ramsize 0x10000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set mtype 2292
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline "acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=650000 lcd.density=240 msmts_calib=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78 clock-7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=-1,-2,3 force_cdma=1 physkeyboard=rhod210"
boot


Edit; Found solution after comparing some startup.txt files. Changed "gsensor_axis=-1,-2, 3" to "gsensor_axis=2, 1, 3" Now gsensor works as expected on my DroiDed TP2

Sorry, haven't been around.. I'll add that to the front page, thanks. I thought the startups I linked had that in.. will go see...
*edit*
In step I. #4 I linked to 3 startup.txt files all had the correct axis, also under step VII. I typed out a startup.txt, it too had the correct axis...

Thank you!! Have it up and running on my TP2 from Sprint. Loving my phone all over again. Never had the time to read all the threads to figure it out, so thank you for taking the time to lay it out nice and pretty!!

Hi, i got error said: failed to load file\storagecard\zimage

Please help me out

[teradog]

It would take much less time to delete it & run steps 1-6 again, follow closely the instructions... Ensure if you run haret to start, you use a startup.txt file for your device. Please try again & see what happens

*edit*
You have to be aware... some of the downloads put everything @ the root of your storage card, some & the ones I prefer put them under a directory called andboot/

Look at the startup.txt files in the first post, make sure you have this line "rel_path=andboot" in your startup.txt..

Also, try another build, you may have better luck!

Sorry, before I start reading all the posts, I just want to know if Android port is working 100% on the TP2?

Nope. If you want to know, basically everything is working except for the issues I listed here:
