[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] knifedge:
USCC specific instructions for HTC Touch Pro2

First, credit where credit is due. These instructions are just specific tweaks for US Cellular customers of the original FAQ http: //sites.google.com/site/androidport/faq by Reefermattness and the most effective method for US Cellular Data in http: //forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=113441&page=13 post 127 by clifftrue. You'll need to register on PPCGeeks to download files linked in this procedure. This procedure should save you a couple of days of reading and a few reboots in the process.

I have an HTC Touch Pro2 on US Cellular in Chicago. I don't have a SIM card. My phone has the FN in light blue, with SYM on the , key and : on the N key. Yes, Android is a huge improvement over WinMo. Here's what you want to do.

Go get a new SD card just for XD Android. 2GB is recommended.

Go to http: //sites.google.com/site/androidport/downloads and download the CAB - Android v2.2 Froyo: BLAZN (click where it says View). Copy that .CAB file to your new SD card.

Put the SD card in your phone. In WinMo, go to Programs, File Explorer. Open My Device, Storage Card, and open ProjectAndroid2.2BLAZN.072110 - this will install Project Android and extract the files onto your SD card. Reboot after the installation.

After the reboot, use your phone to dial ##778, then press View in the screen. Press View Info in the lower left corner, scroll down, and choose M.IP Default Profile. Write down your NAI (should be something like 2245551212 @ uscc.net). Hit OK in the upper left to exit.

Remove the SD card from your phone and put it back in your computer. Create a new folder called gscript in your Storage Card. Click http: //forum.ppcgeeks.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=64040&d=1269451299 to download the USCCFIX.txt. Put USCCFIX.txt into the Storage Card/gscript directory you just created. Double click on USCCFIX to open it with a text editor. In that file, in all three spots, carefully replace 6414251234 with the numeric part of your NAI that you wrote down. Save and Exit the text editor. Rename USCCFIX.txt to USCCFIX.sh

Click http: //gscript-android.googlecode.com/files/GScript.apk and download GScript. Copy that file (GScript.apk) to the Storage Card/andboot/AndroidApps directory.

Put the Storage Card back in your phone. Go to Programs, All Programs, and run Project Android. Make sure you're in Device Family: Rhodium, choose rhod400 for the keyboard layout, check the Force CDMA box, then press Run Android in the lower left.

This should be the first time you're booting Android on this storage card, so it will take a while. Once Android has started, press your Windows key, then choose Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, then On SD Card in the upper right. Install GScript if you find it there. If it's not there, that's fine. Press Downloaded in the upper left, and make sure GScript is there. Press the Power button on the top of your phone to exit the Settings screens.

Press the grid of squares at the bottom center of your display. Press GScript. Press the physical Windows key and select Add script, Load file. Tap the usccfix.sh file listed, and press Save. Now tap usccfix (only item in the list) to run it. After it runs, press the ‘Close’ button at bottom. You're back at the Android main screen. Hold down your End key, choose Power off and reboot your phone.

Your phone will reboot to WinMo. Again, go to Programs, All Programs, and run Project Android. It should remember Rhodium and rhod400 for the keyboard layout, but you'll need to check the Force CDMA box. Press run Android in the lower left. Once Android starts, it will take a few minutes for it to connect to the data network. When you see the 3G icon up by the battery meter at top, you're set.

And finally, avoid any Marketplace apps that say they "prevent sleep mode." They'll cause the Sleep of Death (SoD) that everyone finds so frustrating.

I'm new, so I can't use hyperlinks until I'm unlocked by a mod. Once I am, I'll fix the hyperlinks.
