Re: How good is Android on TP2?

I have browsed and found several tutorials and/or videos on installing that on the TP2. Is one better than the other?

What version of Android comes with this install? 1.5? 2.1? 2.2?

So, what I am reading - you can pretty much run your phone in Android all the time, and make calls/do everything? I thought that I had read that initially, sound wasn't working on it.but, you've made it work? Do you leave yours in Android all the time?

Don't overthink it - there's no risk in running Android the way we run it (off of the SD card). There's literally no risk of bricking - simply reset your phone to go back to WinMo.

As for builds, FroYo is the most stable (2.2): http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/android-tp...e-release.html

GingerBread (2.3) is pretty snappy, but it still has some issues that FroYo doesn't have: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/android-tp...ha-camera.html

Most things work, and this is a good thread that goes thru what works and what doesn't (and how to fix it if possible http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/android-tp...ted-frx07.html

Give it a shot! You've got nothing to lose but a little bit of time.

Re: How good is Android on TP2?

Ok - I read where the program has to be installed to the "root of the SD card." I don't have a memory card adapter, and I have my TP2 set to "file sharing" in Windows Mobile - how do I find the SD card so I can install this program to it?

Thanks.
