Does XDAndroid has to be started-up from Windows every time? - General Questions and Answers

Hi all.
I'm using XDAndroid Froyo FRX06 (Latest), on an HTC Touch Pro2(RHOD210).
And I have a couple of questions:
1) Does android has to be started-up manually from Windows? I wish XDAndroid would be the primary OS and start up whenever I start the phone.
2)The end button and the ON/OFF button does the same. I searched but couldn't find how to chane its behaviour in this specifc build.
Thanks In Advance, and please excuse my newbism

I believe that it has to be turned on Manually but there is a software that will give you the option boot into android when you switch on the phone

Could you be more specific please?

Anyone? (sry for the bump)

It's an app called Gen.Y Dualboot. Windows has to start first (before you can open the app) but it's still faster than clicking haret.exe.

Thanks David,
2 questions:
1)Is there a way for the phone to start android exclusivly? I searched around, and found some ROMs that should do it according to some people but couldn't really find one, and I'm not sure they'd be compatiable with me Touch Pro2(RHOD210).
2) Is Gen.Y Dualboot compatiable with Touch Pro2(RHOD210)
Thx in advance.

1) I think not. Not sure exactly because I have Xperia X1 (I think this is only possible for HD2)
2) Yes. As far as I know, it's compatible with every WinMo phone (there are also different resolution versions of the app)

[Q] windows mobile

hey,
well obviously I'm a newbie here and i needed to know if anyone can help me find a download link for windows mobile?it crashed on my Siemens pocketloox and i lost my cd so i've been looking everywhere for a downloadable version but i can't find one.
thanks in advance.
Dude a pda is not like a pc where you can freely install any OS you wish... The official Windows Mobile versions must be provided by your manufacturer (there isn't a Universal version per say... if you try to flash the version of another device you'll kill your phone). You may try to check Fujitsu-Siemens homepage for an official ROM update or contact them if needed
Over the net you may find ROMs for pda but bare in mind these are device specific and your device usually needs to be hacked in order to install unofficial versions (your device seems to be quite old... I don't believe you'll find any rom here since xda is almost HTC land).
Also what do you mean by crashed? Did you brick it (OS won't start... all you get is a black screen)? Have you tried removing/reinserting the battery and restarting?
the start menu suddenly has no icons,and neither the camera shortcut button nor the notes one are working.basically,it just opens and almost everything is disabled.
The easy solution is...
Just hardreset the device (seach here) and it will reset your device to factory defaults (it's like a format+reinstall)... Problem solved.
Just make sure you backup your data (photos, contacts, messages...) before because everything will be erased
thanks a lot man it worked.

Modding Toshiba Journ.E Touch Multimedia Tablet-PC

Does someone know this tablet? Is it possible to replace its WinCE with Android?
*fg* let me guess... you got the weekly advertisment flyer from Real supermarket?
Nethertheless I've been asking myself the same question - but I couldn't find one hint of successful porting Android to this device (and now my fingers are hurting from google'ing)
Yes, you're right, I got that advertisment and thought about buying it.
Actually, you can run a number of software written for ARM-WinCE on it. For instance, I installed AllReader2, TotalCommander, CorePlayer, The Quest 1.04 for PPC from Redshift.
I dont have a SD card... How can i install software without one ?

I haven't tried disabling the Toshiba UI but I believe it is possible.
Start the MSN messenger and select File>>Open Received Files.
This will open an explorer window just like the normal windows explorer. By pressing the "Up" directory button a few times, you will finaly reach the root directory. There you will see a link for "Control Panel". Open it and select "Remove Programs". In the new window you will see that the only installed program is the Toshiba UI.
I'm guessing that if you remove it, you will be able to boot with Win CE.

I have found an Android Froyo 2.2 ROM and I will try to flash the Journ.e with it. I will let you know if it goes well.
I'm looking for the same thing.
I've tried several solutions (debian, meego, android), but I couldn't find anyone working.
Whatever OS I put on the SD card, the system refuse to boot and keep stuck at the toshiba splash image.
Did anyone find a solution?

Hi,
First off my apologies to resurrect an old thread but I’ve been searching for a while now and have not found an answer, I was wondering if it is possible to get this working on a different OS ? And if so which one? I'd really like to be able to get some sort of flash capability out of it
Thanks for any info

Hi CosmicBlue2000! I have this tablet I've found these sites, looking on this tablet, I don't know if it will be possible to port android on this thing, mabey it will help you, or maybe you know some android developers who can port Android to JT.
Search your in Google about "Another Android on s3c6410" in jtlovers site.

Question about installing Android after installing Windows Phone 7 on HTC HD2

Hello it's been a while that I have installed Windows phone 7 on my HD2.. (the first release from DFT I think)
But, atm I can't use at work to connect to the wifi because my MAC Adress always change...
So I wanted to put back Android but without uninstall anything.
I don't want to loose my data/config/activation from my wp7, I just want to install android in dual boot.
Anyone have successfully installed Android after WP7 but without reinstalling both?
Sorry for my english...
I have post in this thread because isn't only about HD2.
I think that you will find that the vast majority of users in this forum have WP7 handsets and so will not be able to assist you.
Logic dictates that you will have more luck in the HD2/Leo forums as the members there actually own the handset in question.
Kind Regards,
Creamy
yes, thanks for the answer, but I don't want to post twice (maybe an admin will move this?) and it can be for any wp7 device.
If anyone want to install an android system he has to reset their phone, format the partition and then loose all data/installed programs from windows phone...
Isn't specific to HD2, so I hope anyone has got the same problem as I have

Actually, this is a question ONLY for the HD2. Android cannot be installed on a WP7 handset (yet). So you are much better off posting in the HD2 forums.
Yeah, the hd2 is, generally, one of the most beastly phones to ever exist. You can even run older versions of windows, and newer versions of nonmobile Linux distros on it!!

Hope this helps, it did for me, also all the tool links are there too, I have mine running and even have TS3 full version, working on my Android side.
I do have a feeling though, that you will need to reset your win 7 side, as you will need to create and format your sd card for it to work, unless you are able to do this without the phone, then you could create the partition, but then you still need both partitions, as your win phone 7 side, will need storage space.
You will have to follow the guide to the letter, I did mine a few days ago and all is sweet, my android side is different to whats in the guide, but at least it is listed what i am running in my siggy.Best of luck and message if you need help.
More help to you, I hope.

Just a note, I actually cloned my storage on the sd card for the hd2, before I went about reinstalling, I was able to create the sd partitions for wp7 and android, then I copied the windows one back over, that way I saved all my downloaded apps.
If you are not sure about this, then you will have to bite the bullet and just wipe and reinstall, just take a note of things before you do.
You will be able to reactivate the phone by calling microboffs,via chat help, thats what I did, they gave me a key, straight away for free.....
ups didn't know we can't install from another wp device... so if an admin can move the topic...
hm, I'll try promethieus...
I'll try to backup the sd data then we will see... but didn't think it will works

[Q] a few questions about xdandroid

I didnt see an obvious section for xdandroid questions, so i hope its okay to post a couple here; forgive me and redirect me if not, please...
1. I'm running xdandroid frx07 on my htc touch pro off the sdcard. Is it possible to swap sdcards while running the xdandroid system? im guessing no.
2. If I cant hot swap the sd card, then (this may be silly to some but I'm tired) are there any android specific files that can NOT be read by Windows Mobile 6.1?
3. Is it possible to install xdandroid to the device itself so as to free up the sd card for normal data storage and transport between devices? For instance, I would like to install it to "\(lowest possible dir)\xdandroid\" instead of "\sdcard\" ("I know I probably won't be able to completely over-write the WM6x OS, so Windows will have its own folder tree branch and xdandroid will have its own as well. I already have Haret in the WM startup list so I never see WM except for when I boot without the sd card inserted (Haret just errors out because it cant find the files to boot linux).
4. I also would like to know if anyone knows where I can find and turn OFF everything that actually uses or relies on the Sprint/CDMA cellular network (I dont have a carrier, I use it strictly on wi-fi as a miniature internet terminal/remote control for PC & PS3). I would love it if someone could direct me toward a generic/non-carrier branded ROM to flash, that would do the trick!
5. Just kidding; I won't write another question yet, I think these are good enough for now. Thanks in advance for any and all serious responses
Hey there,
The touch pro is in the legacy device forums, here is the rom link fyi : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171070.
You would be better off asking for help in that thread
