Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800)
 

Hey, just wanted to thank everyone who has helped in this thread. The real-world experience of using Android on my Raph800 helped solidify my decision to get the EVO.

Maak: your tireless work from the beginning (on the old thread even) has been awesome and I hope the donation I made comes in handy ;)

I'll be keeping the RAPH for a while and continue to help diagnose as time permits. Best of luck to everyone here and I look forward to the great things coming out of AOSP!

I gave my patch to phh, so it should be up very soon. Look out for a new rootfs here:

http://xdandroid.southcape.org/rootfs/

It's only tested to work on my diam500, so test reports are welcome. Google Nav works beautifully for me though :)

Also of potential interest to you guys is my "turbo" mode patch. It overclocks the memory to give a little performance boost like newer devices like the TP2. It may cause some stability issues however. If you want to give it a try, get the latest kernel from:

and add acpuclock.force_turbo=1 to your startup.txt

Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800)
 

awesome bzo! as soon as it's avail. i'll test it out. going to download the kernal now and i'll let you know how it runs on my tp when i have a moment.

Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800)
 

well i can see so far that it seems alot quicker and snappier. very nice bzo. any idea on what this does to our battery?

Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800)
 

To temper the good news with some not-so-good, it doesn't look like there'll be the super simple fix I'd hoped for on the raph500. (Though... I guess no one still reading this thread even cares about the raph500.) I can't get any version of the kernel to boot without pretending it's a raph800 (which is an uglier state of affairs than I had expected). But we'll see... it might not be as bad as it looks.

Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800)
 

Not sure how much the force_turbo affects the battery. Imagine it can't be too bad since that's how the TP2 runs from the factory.

Re: Linux/Android on CDMA Touch Pro (RAPH800)
 

Thanks Bzo, adding acpuclock.force_turbo=1 to startup.txt is way snappier. Cool=D>

My TP is stuck on the splash screen. It runs through the setup and goes to the splash screen with the X and the streaming lights. I let it run for about 30 mins and still just keeps goin. I have the Alltel version of the TP which is the Raph800 I am told, just like the Sprint phone.
