I haven't been able to get it to work on latest android releases. It used to work.

Update 2010-06-06 (2): When it rains, it pours. GPS now working, thanks go bzo. Grab the latest rootfs and give it a shot.
Update 2010-06-06: Preliminary RAPH500 (Verizon) support. See this post.
Update 2010-05-12: Trouble with the latest All-in-One package. If you're unable to boot (just loops endlessly, i.e. 15+ minutes, at the Nexus One X boot animation), follow instructions here for workaround.2010-05-11: New All-in-One package.
2010-05-07: New All-in-One package.
2010-03-31: New All-in-One package.
2010-03-19: New All-in-One package. Includes the newest kernel, modules, and rootfs. New kernel fixes the touchscreen 'double-tap' issue, and also enables NAT/Masquerading for purposes of ad-hoc wifi tethering. Package also includes a terminal app in the AndroidApps folder. If you've already got the old package, all you really need is the new kernel.
2010-03-12: Adding an All-in-One package to make the whole thing a little easier. If you've got a working install, you don't need to bother with this update.
2010-02-28: New package, new instructions. Everything's finally in line with the main xdandroid build. Power off/reboot works. Touchscreen is (marginally) improved. HW3D works without initializing in WinMo.
2010-02-18: New kernel. Re-enables power collapse (which has been non-functional for a while) and correctly reports charging/not charging.
2010-02-16: New kernel. Huge thanks to MrPippy (<-- Donation link -- show him some love if you can, he deserves it). He has finally sorted out the mic issue. It now works without any trickery.
2010-02-14: New kernel. Don't bother upgrading unless you really want to swap the Power (Home) and Center (Enter) buttons. If you do, grab this kernel, and add board-htcraphael-navi.alt_keypad=1 to your cmdline in startup.txt.
2010-02-09: Dropbox killed the file links -- excessive usage. Now on Mediafire. Hope it works.
2010-02-09: New package. Fixed Wifi (I hope).
2010-02-08: New package. Posting the whole blob now. This one has hardware 3d semi-working.
2010-02-04: New kernel/modules. CDMA data stability tweak and re-enabled power collapse.
2010-02-03: New kernel/modules. Enables the 2nd memory bank, giving ~80 more megs of available memory. And boy, is it sweet. Much faster. Also, there's a new XDANDROID package with touchscreen calibration built in, so I've removed the rootfs that was here.
2010-01-31: New kernel/modules/rootfs. Enables touchscreen calibration, as well as various stability improvements. If you have downloaded a modified eclair.user.conf from this thread, DELETE IT, and replace with the original from the XDAndroid package. On first boot, you will be asked to click five points on the screen. Click them very lightly and gingerly, as the touchscreen is hypersensitive. This will save a file, ts-calibration, to the sd card, which will maintain the touchscreen settings for subsequent boots.
2010-01-17 #2: New kernel/modules. Fixes audio, at the expense of the shutdown function no longer working. Small price to pay. Also might be more stable (reverted a line in the smd code that may have been causing crashes on my device).
2010-01-17: Updated eclair.user.conf. Touchscreen works quite well now. Download eclair.user.conf.txt, rename to eclair.user.conf, and replace the file in /Storage Card/conf/
2010-01-16: New kernel/modules. Fixes keyboard. Includes a new, less jumpy touchscreen driver. New touchscreen driver requires calibration to be passed through the eclair.user.conf file, in /Storage Card/conf/. Replace yours with the one attached here. Also, some keyboard fixes require an updated startup.txt, also attached here.
2010-01-10: Oops. Last kernel broke cdma data.
2010-01-09: New kernel/modules. Makes battery status reporting actually work -- though it's still quite inaccurate.
2010-01-08: New kernel/modules. Adds battery status reporting.
2010-01-07: New kernel/modules added. Enables deep sleep/power collapse (see below). Updated instructions for Eclair.

I have the newest all in one package, the one you made on the 12th, but I have 2 issues, videos are still not playing and I cannot connect to data, only wi-fi, I have a sprint touch pro and how can I fix this?

[hamagc]

videos as in youtube? not working just yet.

no data? add an apn in the apn field. from second post in this thread:

Sometimes this is caused by incorrect or missing APN settings. When Android boots up, go to Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names. You should see an entry with Name: Android (or CDMA Generic), and APN: internet. If this entry is not active, activate it. If you see nothing, hit menu (the button with the house), create a new APN, and put in the settings Name: Android and APN: internet. Everything else can be left blank/default.
If you are on a network that uses login name and password for #777 dial up networking, and none of this works, you can try the instructions here, which may or may not help (you'll need your correct name and password).

ok makk, using pterminal, dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt did nothing for me.

however saving it as a dumpdmesg.sh worked. was able to upload for the guys to look at. thanks for the help!

[makkonen]

pTerminal, useless? I don't believe it!

I hate that program. If I cared enough, I'd put together a system with it completely removed, just to save space on the app list.

Glad you were able to get it working.

[hamagc]

lol i had to search for the apk for pterminal. though i think i like it better than the terminal emulator lol

[makkonen]

it crashes when you try to su. That makes it useless for me for 90% of what I'd be dropping into a terminal to do.

I guess this poses the question for me - why haven't we rolled a useful terminal app into Android? There was one suggested a while back, but I've always had issues finding it in the market. I think you suggested it Makk...

[makkonen]

I have. I did it the lazy way... there's a terminal.apk (Android Terminal Emulator) in the AndroidApps folder in all my packages.

Edit: It is the one with the blue screen. It's not the best terminal emulator, but it's free and available. Better Terminal Emulator Magic is, well, better, but no longer in the market, I believe. You could probably extract it from an old vogue rom... I think it was in all of them for a while.

[hamagc]

is that the one with the blue screen? if not can you post?
