Is possible use Android Rom from HTC Tattoo? In the future. Ofcourse. Becouse hardware is similar as hardware from touchcruise.
No way!
Greetings
why?
could you please elaborate "no way"? What is the obstacle? I am sure may of us would love to see Iolite with Android.
Thanks

because porting android needs a lot of rewritting the drivers and how to speak to youre phones hardware
and even the great phones like my blackstone dont have android running
and they are trying to acomplish that for over a half year now
and many other huge phones dont have a working android for there phone
and it arnt that many people here with the iolite so i think we dont have programmer how can make it for us ive it would ever be accomplished on other phones
best regards

I don´t can better say this.

HI!
Sorry for stupid questions...but I dont understand why someone should write new driver? Hardware are (almost) the same. Why you can't use tattoo's drivers without changing?
Best Regards!

Hi all firstly i am very new to all this technology so be gentle
Ive just ordered a Pay as you go Hero G2 should be here in 2-3 days, anyhows i was wondering if any would be so kind as to tell me with some links if possible for things that i should Download onto it before i start useing it i.e updates? RoM ? 2.0 andriod (if its out yet?)
And some handy apps like a sat nav thats good possibly free ?
Where to get upgrades and how to put them on the phone in lamens terms as i really dont have a clue.
The phone is from the UK if that makes any difference.
Thanks for any help

There are only unofficial 2.0/2.1 ROMs available at the moment, and most of them have some issues. For many, they are small enough that they can use these ROMs on a day to day basis, but for others they are not.
If you are a total noob to Android, and your ROM comes with a 2.73 build, I would leave it as it is for now until you get a bit more knowledgeable.

Since you are on PAYG, I take it you won't have much data allowance? If that's the case, you don't want anything with online maps. I use Copilot, which is paid app, but it's *very* cheap for what it is and I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Look around these forums for a while, especially the dev forum. Everything you need is here, and you'll get less flak from forum users if you take the time to find it yourself. Of course, if you run into problems post a question, but remember the mantra "search is your friend"!

Thanks alot for your responce i will try searching the reason i do ask though is not through laziness but i am really that stupid when it comes to technology hehe
I would find it and read it and still not have a clue but ty for your answers once more )
How do i check which if i have ROM 2.73 build ? and if its not i take it i would need to find and install that build somehow?
But yes as you said i am a total noob so i guess waiting untill the official 2.0 update is availible.
The copilot you suggest sounds good as thats the main thing i will probably use. Would you have a link to the cheapest or best place to get that from?
So ty for the suggestion.
Hello
Is it possible to run Android on Touch2?
Nope, it needs the HardSPL first and then a custom android rom cooked just for the touch 2.
If I sound like i know what I'm talking about, I dont, but thats what I've been told so far.

I dont think that you are right! You dont need HardSPL for Android not even to change ROM! You can run Android under windows for many devices just not Mega yet! Check this.

Yup. There is possibility to start the android from Windows Mobile with help of special executable (haret.exe). But it seems this way does not work for Mega yet.
hah, fair point, i did point out that i didnt know what i was talking about

I have followed the instructions and Android works well in my touch2

yes android is working just a few bugs but is usable as a phone
May be more information or instructions?
Any chance of crashing or bricking the device ?!
come on give in some instructions and point out the possibilities of screwing up the device ;]] and ofc how could we fix it after that ...

I really want android on the mega
I really don't understand you guys...
Why did you bought HTC Touch2, which is with WinMobile OS, when on other side you could buy HTC Tattoo with Android, and with more hardware, and also little cheaper...
And now, you want to put Android to Touch2...
Why didn't you buy android phone...?
I just don't see point...
How about getting WM on the Tattoo?
These two devices seem as similar as it gets.

i could buy the Tatto when i chosed my phone , but i didnt know WTF was Android ... just heard only that it's a new google OS and that's all ... and when heard that if u start posting all the apps for WM u cant stop for years , my choise was done ;]] now Android devices question if they can run WM on their devices and we quest if we can run Android on our devices isn't it cool
WinMo<--->Android fight which is better , but they want to run each other and give it a try ?!

The touch 2 is half the price the Magic and the Hero are.
@secosan
Touch2 is about 10 euros more expensive than Tattoo...
@LtBlue
It is nice to have dual boot (WinMO and Android). I have it on my Diamond.
Only thing is that Android will never get 100% ported to Diamond (or other WinMO device). There is always something missing,... and battery life when using WiFI is very short (approx 2 hours). This and other small bugs (plus frequent Android crashing on Diamond) is turning me from android on Diamond...
There is android topic in Diamond forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402002 with more than 6000 replies, and more than 1,600,000 views, but solution for 100% port of Android to Diamond is not yet found.
Honestly, I think it will never will be made... More likely, everyone who desperately want Android on Diamond, will buy Android device, like me... (still need money for that)
Well, I just wanna say to you all: Don't give up with android on Touch2, but most likely it will never work as it work on native Android device.
If you are desperately in need on Android device, then buy one...
And have in mind, that you will get more hardware with Android phone, and it will be cheaper than WinMO device in same rang.
Hope I helped a little...
hey all

Does anyone have a Toshiba menu.I like it. It is much more functional than any other programs such as Manila, Touch Flo and the others. I’ll be very pleased if anyone can extract it from the original software and do it like cab file, that it would be capable for installing in every software.

i am also interested. On the stock winmo 6.1 it had 3d effects but in the 6.5 update toshiba removed effects becsuse they thought customers wont use it anymore.
Novembre5 perhaps you could extract a cab version from the stock 6.1 Rom?

Sorry i do not know where to get the ROM from i bought my device with 6.5 already pre-installed. All i know of these 3D effects are from another thread and at MWC's .It isnt on the Toshiba Website aswell. Sorry i cant help you there. Perhaps some others who bought the device before 6.5 may provide a dump of the rom?
yeah i thought there was a diffewrence
in the 6.1 the three stripes moves individually like opening three doors at the same times and then in the 6.5 they turned like three doors attached as one opening
cant help with the dump though
+1 for the cab. really love this menu when i was using my t01a.
Me too, I know they are not the best but I like them

I feel upset...Toshiba's strips was considered worldwide as one of the worst apps in the ppc's history. Even Toshiba included the SPB Shell because most of users didn't use that horrible launcher...
Anyway, as said, one man's meat is another man's poison....
Dear Novembre5, if you are really thinking in making this cab, please leave this task as the less urgent of your "To do" list......
Cheers!

Good day all,
Am very interested to able to run Android on my device " HTC Pro Three" . I have try many ways but am still failed to do so.
As advice from " Pongster " this is because my HTC Pro Three RAM is only 320 MB and the android "startup.txt" will run on RAM 512 MB . That's the reason when it reboots it just blank only.
i don’t know if anyone out there have the same device or have any idea how i can make the "startup.txt" able to run under my 320 MB.
If you have any idea or know the solutions, kindly assist me.
Thanks and Regards

can u flash regular hd2 winmo roms? (yours is the one in the picture, right?)
Just by curiosity!
Where did you buy it?
From [[ Cold ]]'s link I see that it has the 1 ghz Snapdragon processor but not the whole rams
I think I read somewhere here on xda someone else had the tp3 prototype. Unfortunately they were out of luck because of the specs and the limited number available there is absolutely no support for that phone.I don't think there is even a hardspl for that phone? Have you been able to flash a custom winmo rom on it?
I think there were others with the same problem as you. They said the devs told them that there most likely wont be any support for them. You should try to trade it for a normal HD2. There are some people who want the pro.three
Maybe someone will trade...
Ask user xmoo.
He seems to know a lot about that particular proto.
Thread example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708637
Why wouldn't you just get the hd2 in the first place
Yes.
am able to flash normal HTC HD2 ROm. I have tested many such as:
- ChuckyDroidROM
- Energy
- MINi ROm
Is give by my company.

Thanks to xmoo.
After i flash the Radio, it show:
RAM Size : 448
Flash Memory Size : 512 MB
In order to run the startup.txt for android i need to do some changes:
But which to change:
Startup.txt
set ramaddr 0x11800000
set ramsize 0x1e400000
Basically, i need know what to put in there in order to address the RAM correctly.
Any one have idea on this?
I don't think you have a real prototype. Cause the max rom on prototype is 340mb.
Android won't run on the PRO THREE cause of chipset diffrence. Best thing you could do is trade for a real HD2. I got a retail HD2 if you want to trade pm me.
Don't give up.. don't listen to them.. you better give this phone to cotulla for some days and ask him to figure out something and thank him.. or just use IRC and participate with their discussions anyway.. I'm sure there's a way to fix this..
-What about the old Android builds since they use only 252mb of RAM.. maybe try asking marychima for an old kernel
Good luck with your Pro 3.
EDIT: Quote from xmoo "Android did not boot? Before or after the HaReT patch? Cause one of my friends who still has a pro three (under HTC contract) can bootup Android using the patched HaReT" well.. i'm sure there's a way out to get it working.

Thank you. Old Android builds? Do you mean 2.1 or 2.0 android? and may i know were can i get it?
In the early days for HD2 android we only had 320Mb ram working
I would have thought one of those early startup.txt files would give you what you are after. Having said that if Pongster didn't advise this then maybe it's not that simple.
He knows a hello of a lot more than I do about HD2 Android
