What about this ROM, though?  Anybody here tried this one from a german guy?

http://hackbart5.pyt...ordpress/?p=234

Sadly, though, the largest file (2nd link) has been taken down by megaupload.  i'm wondering though if it's the same as the 3-part froyo-fs file in the other thread?

I've looked into this for a moment I remember, 2 months ago, I can remember it is exactly the same. The third file, the "patched" kernel file is identical to the one from http://code.google.com/p/omnia2droid

So imo, maybe this guy has good intentions, but is mirrorring files unasked on a site that is full of linking to sites for which I doubt the intentions.

Hey Guys,

Is there something new about the Wifi connection? Did anybody solved the problem?

I installed this Version of Android on my Omnia Pro B7610 and it works very fine. No crashes till now, but i can't download something from the market because i haven't got a internet-flatrate.

Is there any possibility to run the Wifi? Or are there other ways to install the programs from the marketplace on my phone?

Best regards Aishiteru

Step-by-step: Install android on SD-card

1. Requirements
You will need the files below before you proceed:

Android installation
2D/3D drivers
B7610 support files

2. Unpacking files
You will need the 3 downloaded files, so I recommend to unpack them to a location that isn't that hard to find.

You can unzip it like this:
2.png

3. Putting the files on 'My storage'
Put the phone into 'Mass storage' and select 'My Storage'.
You will see it on Windows (computer):
3.png

Copy the contents from 'Froyo_beta1_1024' to 'My Storage' likt this:
4.png

4. Install Android
First, unplug your phone from the computer.
NOTE: You will need more than 1GB of free space on your SD-card before proceeding!

On your phone, open your file manager and go to 'My storage'.
Next, open the folder 'o2beta'. You will see 4 files:
haret.exe, sd.cpio.gz, startup.txt, zImage.

Launch haret.exe and click 'Run'.

If the installation fails, look at the error message and check the 'known issues below this post'.

Your phone will now reboot back into Windows Mobile.

5. Installing updates
Plug your phone back in, so you get the 'My Storage' on your computer.
Copy the file I selected in the screenshot below to 'My Storage':
5.png

You will now have the following in 'My Storage':
6.png

Unplug the phone again
Go back into the filemanager on your phone, and launch the haret.exe on your 'My Storage'. NOT the one you used in step 4, but the one next to the log.txt.

You will now see Android boot (It can take about 5 minutes the first time..).
Once you can use Android, DO NOT do anything. Instead, hold the END_CALL (Hangup) button and press 'Reboot' or 'Shutdown'.
You are now back in Windows Mobile.

6. Install support files for B7610
Hook up the phone to your computer (yes, again! I promise this is the last time).

Go into your downloaded files folder, and select these files:
7.png

Copy those to 'My storage'. You will get a warning that 'zImage' already exists, overwrite it.
8.png

Check if you have the same as me:
9.png

Unplug your phone, and launch haret.exe like you did in step 5. (From my storage, not from o2beta folder!)

Enjoy :-)

thanks for this guide

the keyboard backlight is lit up together with the screen and it drains my battery quickly, is there a way to lessen the backlight time of the keyboard or have it off when the keyboard is not in slide state?

i installed android in 8 gig sdhc mem card but i am having problem with the speed. it is working nice in my 4 gig but it would be nicer if i can install it on 8 gig. is there anyone who was able to install this on 8 gig perfectly?

lastly. is there a guide like this for samsung jet?

thanks again, and keep up the good work!

hello sir,
i am gonna try once again to install android on my B7610 on SD card.
i am going to use 2gb SD card. sir before installations i want to know certain basic things.
1) as you have said in step 3 to select "MY STORAGE" and copy file there. i wanted to know that if we copy files on "MY STORAGE" and run HARET.exe(o2 folder one) as suggested will that install android  on my SD card or on MY STORAGE.
2) by selecting MY storage in mass storage mode and running HARET.exe will it create partition on MY storage ?
3) Do i need to format my SD card in certain format (fat , fat32) for the installations ?

From first post of original topic:
Info sites:
- Project page
- Beta download page. Please do not mirror, because we need download statistics.
- Kernel source browser For access use svn client and address: svn://o2droid.phj.hu/droid.
- FAQ and HOW TO's @modaco. Please do not ask questions in this thread.
- almar's twitter

Devs ask us not to mirror. Please respect this. I have PM'ed Voyteckst and asked him if devs are aware of the fact that the given link is not working.

Correct link I think is http://o2droid.phj.h..._beta1_1024.zip
This is from original dev source.

Yes, image is same for both 8000 and 7610.The difference for B7610 is patched kernel, B7610 support files in step 1. Which are also mirrored, officially on http://code.google.c.../downloads/list  choose rev51.

Followed instructions and it all works.  I can launch "haret" from root of storage and all is well.  I cannot for the life of me get gen.y working though.  It always says "android missing".  I have tried editting the registry - even tried adding "andboot" into the mix.  haret.exe is in the root of storage so ive tried leaving the location blank and trying \storage card\haret.exe  but nothing will get gen.y to acknowledge android is there.   I have soft reset inbetween registry changes (good old M$).

It isnt a major hassle to press the haret shortcut but a working gen.y would be nice.

Yesterday i downloaded some games like paper toss and angry birds.
paper toss is working fine .. but angry birds dint .. seems like some graphic issue.
Is that the issue known ? or its only because i had old 2d/3d drivers ?

You wil have to download a particular Angry Birds version. I believe it was the spica version. Tried it a while ago, was working fine.

I installed Android step by step using this guide. As a result I got a useless OS

1. Android reacts very slow, the Android wizard is not working. I can't even go past the "Touch the Android" screen.
2. After about 20 seconds the screen goes black. There's no way to wake up the screen. The only way remains to reset the phone.
3. Hardware keyboard lights all the time, even when it is not slid out.

How have you got Android working?? Our phones are identical, we installed Android according to the same guide. How can it be that on some  Android works??

[matof]

I have the same problem I can not get through the tutorial it always freezes. There are bugs here with the keyboard and the core ... Same time, What?

[ludviktom]

I have the same problem too. The phone shows the error message "android.process.acore..." all the time and i can't get through the wizard. Can anyone help us?
