After many tries here is it, my first beta for Android Eclair 2.1 for the Nike.
Work is still in progress and maybe out there there is someone who would like to help me in this project of porting a working version of android 2.1 to the nike.

UPDATE #1:
- Data Problem fixed, some disconnects but it can be used without problems (I reccomend to reset the modem when you dont use the connection anymore)
- Added some preinstalled apps:
Astro File Manager
Facebook App
Market
Google Maps
Youtube (Only Audio, Video does not work, i am working on it)
Modem
Advanced Task Manager
RELEASE #1:
- Calls and SMS work
- Data does not work, i am fixing this
####Install Instructions####
- Copy the andboot folder to the root of your SD
- Run Haret
- When haret is running hold the dpad middle button to enter the installation menu
- In the installation menu choose where to install (i use data and system on sd card partitions, its faster)
- Press Install System
- After the system is installed press quit and wait
The first boot is a little bit slow, there is no bootanimation in this built so dont worry if the screen turns black, just wait few minutes, after the first boot i recommend to reboot to speed up things.
Have fun!!!

Android uses your storage card. To go back to wimo you have restart you device.
When you want to update android: Download the files and over write the existing files.
Once installed Android, I can enter to Android, and Restart my device, I can go to my Windows mobile , So I want to Android again, How can I do? Need to install Andriod again????
does this work on the NEON?
Boot manager
I think there should be a boot manager.
ther IS a bootmanger:

Kernel Panic...
I had a kernel panic during the haret booting. then said..."Rebooting in 3 seconds..." then it freezed. Help.
@nik2208:
Do you have linux or programming experiences?
@rhombus:
I did not test it on the neon, just on my nike 20keys, you could try it and let me know.
@ebautista:
Do you use the zimage in my package? Try using another zimage, maybe the latest on the vogue project page works.
For the data connection i found that ppp is not invoked because i get an error that says that only root can run /bin/pppd, so maybe the data connection does not work becase pppd is not invoked, i will make some tries to check that.
@m0rph3us
both
Very good, i am working on the data problem, first of all pppd had permission problems so i fixed that, pppd is now called but it fail when it tries to create a pid file becase it says that the filesystems is read only... do you have icq or msn so we can se what we can do next?
@12432
i think this time is different: the installing procedure tells that the process is going to overwrite the rom..
the old android version used the storage card like a guest..not this one..
@12432:
Dont choose to install it on the nand, choose sdcard partition or image files... Android will be installed on the sdcard and winmo remains on the nand.
You did a great job man, got it running on my HTC Nike, and it performs better than other android ports ( looking to speed and connectivity ). The only downsides at the moment, is that i can't activate XT9 dictionary while writing a message, and the camera functionality ( every port had this for as far I know, so can't blaim you ).
So my question to you is, do you know any way to enable (Dutch) XT9 on this rom? I got the device running on Dutch language now, but in the dictionary-settings, there are no known words, whatsoever. Since I don't know if there is any way to browse my storage card ( didn't see any explorer or anything ), i can't install it like a cab or anything.
Would be cool if i could get it running, would make it a wonderfull android port
I have an old android 1.5 with data working, it can help you for the data on 2.1 ?

Ok guys, big step foward, i am connected succesfully to the internet, but dns does not work, this means:
- If i open the browser and type www.google.com no page is displayed
- If i open the browser and type the ip-adress of www.googl.com, the page is displayed
so there is just a little dns problem, maybe tomorrow i am able to solve it, even the 3g icon on the top is not displayed...
why am I not able to install the os?
after the choice "install" the procedure starts formatting..
then, and after a lot, a message tells
"can't umount /data: invalid arguments" and goes back to initial choice list..
After installation process when you are back in the list choose fix permissions,then back In the list choose quit than wait...after a few minutes Android. Should start
Hi,
i know most of u guys are "nerds" (like me?!?!) and use linux - but sadly im still on win7 with my main shares
Anyway i did a lot of research now on google and several forums about how 2 access the win7 shares from our archos (mainly from the video and music app)!
Bit I didn't found a damn way without looseing my whole securtity settings -> most solutions are going to disable whole security and allow guest access,...
(Well actualy i got the problem of all others: u type in login + pw and press ok - and u get asked again and again for it)
Anyway some ppl use cifs as far as i read but I even dont get what cifs exactly does (somehow mounting network folders as far as I read - but it seemed to be steady - and does it work from music and video app?)
So any help appreciated
regards

The problem with W7 is that it introduced some new features and encrypts in a different way.
All other windows versions where patched so that they can work.
But as it is a close source thing of MS it takes some time until it gets into samba or ther tools.
Did you read http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=45908
and tried http://www.jankamp.com/2010/11/windows-share-manager/ ?
y found those links about deinstalling win live - and using share manager - sry i didnt wrote that.
But share manager rly disables all security as far as i understood - anyway it also didnt work for me somehow.
So seems using an external explorer or perhaps cifs - dunno if that work and how - seems to be the only options
u got a good source on howto use cifs with UD if that works? As far as i understood its "mounted" in a local folder and the n accessible!?!?
EDIT:
searching on my own i think - dont want begging u with things i can find on google
anyway update for http://code.google.com/p/urukdroid/wiki/UrukServices is needed
So you are using Uruk?
And you started the cifs server via UrukConfig?
It is up to UD 1.5RC1 normally off after the start.
yes this is what i did so far - but i didnt edit the config file yet
I've just downloaded the Wifi file explorer pro app to transfer video files ONTO my 10.1 but am at a loss how on earth this is done
i've tried to upload the file to my directory on the mac but if I simply choose download it just downloads to my mac...I can't see a way of tranferring the data onto the tab itself.
If anyone uses this app, can they please post a step by step dummy's guide so I can get data onto the tab!
Thanks!!
Run the app on the Tab. It will give you a weblink to whatever IP address your Tab is using on the network and a port (example: 192.168.1.134:4567) or something like that. Run that in a browser on a computer that is on the same network
It should give you a files/folders interface and you should be able to see the directory tree of the tab in this browser window. If you navigate to where you want to put your files (example, the Movies folder), there should be a button on the lower right called upload. Navigate to the file to upload to your tab. Then you need to hit the "Start upload" button that is just below where you select the file. If it's a large file, you may have to wait a bit.
Hope this helps.
Thanks but it won't work...it'll update what i have on my tab (I renamed a few files) but try as i might, it wont' actually transfer files from my mac to the tab just vice versa.
I've bought the usb adaptor and that's worked fine in getting data on to the tap without any issues so far, so at least there's a work around.
That's weird. The same setup works fine on my Mac. Are you running Snow Leopard or Lion? That may have something to do with it
First off, I'm running Windows 7 64 bit which has a some kind of new file sharing options. My G Tab is loaded up with the latest version of DRH's ICS rom.
On my old XP machine everything was very simple. I selected a folder I wanted to share and BAM! it popped up in ES File Explorer when I selected my computer from the scan.
Now, when I run a scan I'll get this: A bunch of folders I can't open because I "Don't have the permissions. None of which have any of my media or docs in them anyway. The one folder I can ( users)open contains two subs... Default which contains a lot of empty folders and public which is the same thing with .ini files.
So here are my questions.
What am I doing wrong here?
and
Is there any way to add it to the homegroup?
File sharing under Windows 7 has been a nightmare for many people.

I feel like an imbecile. I was selecting everyone from the drop down menu BUT I forgot to hit add. I knew it couldn't be THAT complicated.
Thank you for your help.
NO problem.
As I said, Windows 7 has been a big problem for many people who want to use SMB filesharing.
I also work with a group that uses the Boxee Box Media device. SO many people have issues sending their movie, tv shows and music from their Windows 7 computer to the TV device.
Glad I was able to help
Hello!
My tablet is not rooted. I am trying to download an earlier official version or equal to the current (4.1.1 release 2) by Windows because the wifi just stopped working.
I downloaded the following files: (Brazil)
ICSR5A
info.update.sony.net/ST002/nbx03_045/contents/0003/signed-nbx03_045-ota-121116105.zip
ICS Release 1a
info.update.sony.net/ST002/nbx03_045/contents/0002/signed-nbx03_045-ota-120804014.zip
However, after downloading them, I can not unpack them due error. I'm downloading by Windows, is that the problem?
I have a Sony Tablet S (SGPT131BR / S) and the current version of Android (4.1.1r2) are only connecting on shared WiFi and there are no modems or routers direct. So I want to go back to the ICS and redo the upadte to Jelly Bean or download the same version directly.
I should just rename the file extension? .ROM .apk?
Any tips?
Grateful
up
Maybe it was not clear: I would downgrade to the first version (factory)!
Errors ...
My gadget is no wifi. I'm downloading the zip file indicated by Windows and am subsequently transferring to the SD card tablet.
I have tested unzip the files by Windows (PC) and Android (in Tablet) and both give errors.
Where am I going wrong?
Hello, MLRamos
I am from RJ and have a tablet Sony SGPT13 with the same problem, no wi-fi conection (only conects with a open wi-fi network)
I´ll tell you with i discover how to fix this issue.
see ya!
I believe that today, all links to the ROMs are broken unfortunately. I even made a collection of them, and yet, none is "ok".
Intending to correct a problem with wifi, I ended up almost bricked my gadget: it on / off, accepts access to recovery screen, but is looped in the language of screens and following ... = (
I believe that the solution to it would be only through the ZIP file via SD Card ... thank any contribution of personal collections. Grateful.
