Android... again
 

There's some headway on android on the titan (not by me, just passing it along...)

If you've been out of the loop, the Touch/Vogue guys have

Which is pretty much fully functional - you get a G1 phone with half the screen ;)

You can run that latest image on the titan as well, and everything works great except the buttons/keyboard.

There is a replacement zimage (basically the OS bit) that implements the keyboard/buttons correctly, but IMHO that image seems to have other issues, like not detecting the battery correctly, and leaving the button backlight on when its powered off.

xda thread for the titan:

Hopefully they'll build the titan-button-aware version off the latest vogue zimage soon.

Pretty nifty though, if you're looking for a change of pace.

Thanks for the update. I'm out of the loop, but this is one topic I'd love to stay on top off.

I played with it yesterday. The UI is beautiful, but the buttons don't work consistently on the Titan. It definitely still needs work, but I like the interface a ton better than WM. Not to mention it needs more apps, especially something that will allow for Exchange email.

i just hope since evidently everyone has "moved on" to other phones that this phone will actually get some attention in the android dept. it seems the focus is on the vogue... i'm really waiting for linux to be native on this phone, i don't like using haret. it won't mount my sd card (when it did previously) so i can't even run android anymore. i know it still needs some work, and i'd love to help. i'm just terrible with low-level programming, kernel stuff etc.

How exactly can I get android running on my sprint mogul? I read the thread and I am not exactly sure what to do. Also is the buttons the only thing that doesn't work, like data (browser) and calls work? Lastly is there any way to type if the keyboard doesn't work (an OSK)? Thanks for your help.

It's still very rough, and if after reading that linked thread you don't understand how to do it, you probably shouldn't bother.

Right now you copy a bunch of files to your storage card, and then run haret from windows - after a bit you'll be in android. Everything works, sorta, but its in no way usable - much more of a "oh cool, look, it's android" effect right now.

So, sit tight, and hope those folks finish their porting efforts.

ok thats what i thought, i just wanted to make sure that was how you do it. I guess i'll wait till everything pretty much works, i just thought i could show my friends like "hey look i got a G1 and a Windows mobile phone and Iphone, all in one"
