Android on LG Fathom - 3G/Wifi/Bluetooth

[mangatron]

Well, since our old thread was locked, and since I'm continuing the development, the new thread is here. Many thanks to ajeet17181 for giving me the final piece of the puzzle to resume the work.

I am continuing ajeet17181's work on bringing a working Android build to our Windows Mobile phone, the LG Fathom. As of this moment I am only working on the Kernel, where most of the fixes need to be worked on, so let's get to it, shall we?

Download any of the following Android versions:

Gingerbread 2.3.7 (includes Kernel build #119)
DOWNLOAD "einsteinecker_android.rar" (thanks to pizzaboy192 for hosting)
(In order to enable 3G you must follow instructions below!)

What works:
-3G data
-Wifi
-Limited Bluetooth functionality
-Video playback
-3D gaming
-Accelerometer
-Outgoing calls

What doesn't work:
-Camera
-Incoming calls
-SMS
-Vibrator
-Light sensor
-USB
-SD card has a low chance of being mounted.

IMPORTANT: Preparing your phone to enable 3G internet on Android (Gingerbread 2.3.7 ONLY)
Now that you have the ROM, you will need to edit your phone to enable 3G internet. Download this: LG Drivers and LGNPST.rar (link thanks to da_reeseboy here.)

Please read the .txt inside the LGNPST archive on how to install. I can't help in that regard as I too funked my install until I undid everything and followed the txt file

After you set that up, download this: https://rapidshare.com/files/606560282/Clipboard01.zip, Or the the texty no frills way:

In windows mobile, change Fathom's USB mode to VZaccess manager mode. Open LGNPST and connect your Fathom. Go to "phone setting" and change default phone mode to GSM, and change the APN setting to the one your carrier uses.

I must warn that Android will attempt to connect on first boot, so be sure you have either an unlimited data plan or make sure you won't be charged if you use prepaid.

LATEST KERNEL: (December 25 2012)
Rerun kernel build #120
Previous Kernel:
Rerun kernel build #119 (This kernel is a restart of my previous work. I
basically started over from scratch and compiled it well over 100 times
to find an acceptable solution to the battery issue.) 

Kernel source:
https://github.com/ajeet17181/fathom-kernel Note: this source is broken, and
since I have heavily modified it, wait for me to upload full source someday.

How to use above Android builds
-Now, to use it with one of the above Android versions, first extract the android version into your MicroSD card, and then copy the 3 files inside the kernel archive into the Android folder, overwriting any older files.

-Next, open startup.txt and make sure the line "rel_path=fathom" has the name of the Android folder in your microSD card, if the folder is "2.2", change "fathom" to 2.2.

-Same as usual, run clrcad.exe about 5 times, then click on "haret" .exe file. The kernel will take a while to boot, so let it sit.

Cyanogen March 2012 build
Download here. from www2287. This build is not a final build, that means many things are broken in it.

Android 2.2 Froyo
Download here (NOTE: Due to Froyo not working in some areas, I will not provide support for it)

Current developments: Next phase of development will focus on the phone side (calls, sms, data). Because I am in a GSM country, I will be focusing on that.

Note: I am quite a busy person, and I won't be updating everyday, at the moment I have a grave matter to handle, and it is my 1TB hard drive. It has corrupt sectors, and it needs to be replaced. It holds crucial XDA data on it, so it is important to me. At the moment I can't afford a new one, so any donations is greatly appreciated in helping me remedy that problem. You can read more about my Hard Drive here.
