It is known that using your existing data.img file will substantially slow down froyo. Also make sure and change /conf/eclair.user.conf to /conf/froyo.user.conf before booting. There is also a bit on the first page of the froyo post over at xda:

msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave

Not sure if this solves the sdcard issue or not. (haven't tried it yet) but I can get ringtones to work through media scanning, then finding it in the music app and assigning it there (even after assigning it, you still only get 'silent' when looking for ringtones through the settings menu but they work).

Also it is very important that your sounds be only one folder deep from root (e.g. ~sdcard/tones) for the scanner to pick them up for some reason

The STARTUP.TXT addition does not fix the sdcard ringtone problem.

This worked on my VZW HTC Touch Pro. Only problem I had was CDMA data wasn't working and the FAQ couldn't fix it. I found if I made an APN with the Name Internet and the APN of "vzw" this fixed it and CDMA data worked.

However, the phone is now painfully slow and I get a lot of crashes when Android doesn't want to wait for the app to finish.

Does anyone know the apn settings for Alltel. I would really appreciate the help. All my searches have come up empty handed. Thanks to the developers, and everyone else for their input to XDANDROID it is awesome.

ok guys good news. looks like we found a way to fix the sdcard issue. it will require a new system.ext2.

i will post more info after testing is done and it's ready to be released. but a fix is in the works for us!

thanks to the xdandroid development team!!

I must say this is very very cool. Just ran through the instructions, partitioned my SD card on both a Diamond and TouchPro using WM5Storage.cab method (easy as pi)... then did the simple method as shown in post #1. I have owned an EVO for 3 weeks now and did all initial testing on my old Touch Pro. I like it so much I am putting in on my son's diamond. I would like to know how to run Sense on the android build, any simple instructions for that?
