Re: Whitestone Android It Booted!!!
 
I'm somewhat new to all this, but I have been reading up on all of the android ports to various phones that have been successful. As I understand it, all android ports that I've heard about require the use of Haret, which makes it so android boots "on top" of WM (If I understand things correctly). My question is, will it ever be possible to completely replace WM with Android?
At this point, I am quite happy with WM; not a big fan of 'droid based on the phones I've tried. That being said, I can foresee that by the time WM7 comes along, there is a very real possibility that all of the issues with android will be worked out and it may be a superior M-OS. Any thoughts, folks?

This is cool! :) Question: Is this running over WM (is Haret an emulator?) Or WM/Haret is just a jumpstart for it but it loads in phone's actual memory?

If it's just a jumpstart then the HSPL will be awesome, that way we can flash WM plain with NOTHING just HARET to jumpstart Android...

I believe the Vogue already has Android roms


Maybe we will have total androidness one of these days

Is there a way to make HaRET run DEFAULT.TXT by itself? In a command line or something? Good way of autorunnning it, installing the simplest and plain WM (5, 6, 6.1 whatever is smallest & available) just to autorun HARET... LOL

are you guys just testing this out because this doesnt fully work right?

Testing. Only radio I know of working (and by word of mouth, waiting on my Touch by Sprint) is on the Vogue. But I want my Vogue to boot as quickly as possible in WM and then autorun HaRET with DEFAULT.TXT wihtout having to hit "RUN" button...

There is much work to be done GPIO dumps for hardware functionality, etc. this won't be a few weeks project but months to complete probably.

this doesn't work for me :angry7:. i did exactly what you posted. it boots with the TXT file and goes throught it's DOS like thing then it says "[20.780456] Kernel panic - not syncing: attempting to kill init!" then on the next line "[20-799774] Rebooting in 7 seconds.._" first time i ran it, it did reboot back to WM now it just hangs and won't reboot ](*,).

porfirio,
I get the same lousy results as you.
Kernel panic - not syncing: attempting to kill init!"
then on the next line
"Rebooting in 7 seconds.._"

My android was from the MegaUpload link

I get this same result on 2 different uSD cards, a 2GB SanDisk and an 8GB ADATA.

there is cdma support for the rhodium now so maybe the newer releases will work on the whitestone. There was also a mention on the topaz forum about a certain build causing it not to boot so perhaps many of us that were getting the errors were trying that particular build.
