Mine is stuck at "Jumping to Kernel". I didn't touch anything, just downloaded and copied. Then ran the haret file. I wonder what's wrong...
Did ya run CLRCAD.exe 5 times?

@Giorgi-geo Does GSM Work in this build? Ya never gave us a list of what works and doesn't. Or are you mirroring this from another source, if so can ya provide us a link to the original source with more info?

Also can someone upload this version again:
New Image Android 2.3.5 with WIFI and Bluetooth

MultiUpload seems to be down or taken down by PIPA, cause it has been offline for at least a week. Or upload the Toshiba version, I really want one working with GSM or at least a working phone... I've noticed the phone doesn't seem to wanna work in most CDMA Versions, so I'm hoping the Toshiba version has a working phone that'll allow calls (Sometimes)...

Thanks!!

I ran it 5 times and 10 times from the default Windows Mobile File Explorer. Still doesn't work. Tried downloading it again. And I am using the one Giorgi-geo provided. If there is a better link, please post it! :D

I think it might only work with CDMA I tried booting it with my T-mobile SIM Card in and it just sits there, I haven't tried it with no SIM Card in the phone.

that is what i uploaded.i had it in my computer and thought I'd share with all this closing of upload sites.

no gsm
no accelerometer
no microphone

wi-fi works, i think bluetooth does too

P.S don't look for any other version. this is the best at the moment, until ajeet uploads a new version

Hello, fathom community! I will upload new build at next week.

What's new:
1) G-Sensor
2) Stable microphone
3) 3G outgoing calls (incoming calls, USSD and etc are not working due qualcomm closed sources)
4) Latest Cyanogenmod from GIT
5) Stable PM and deep sleep

I need time for updating sources, compiling it and testing.
Pls, wait some time.

P.S Sorry, but fathom is not my primary phone, i have bought hd2 and i'm very busy :( I can compile new CM sometimes and try to fix some issues, but i can't brought full 3G support and lots of kernel fixes. If there are any fathom android developers - pls tell mme

Thanks! But one really important request: Can you please make CMDA work? I'm using my Fathom at Verizon. Thanks.

Thanks for interesting, but i can't make CDMA working, because first of all there are no any CDMA-based providers in Russia (may be there are, but in my town - no).

    Source code

    http://www.multiupload.com/4ECGKXPYJW

    [Steps]
    Extract above tar.gz in / and then
    Download CodeSourcy Compiler from here
    https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/li...rm-none-eabi/arm-2011.03-42-arm-none-eabi.bin
    Install above C compiler then issue following command in source directory extracted above

    make ARCH=arm tsunagi_defconfig
    make -j16 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/arm-2011.03/bin/arm-none-eabi- zImage

    When this steps complete you will get zImage in arch/arm/boot folder



    New Image Android 2.2.1 with Audio , WiFi + AP mode , Bluetooth

    http://www.multiupload.com/HFZUWFNX0I

    Just extract above file to \Storage Card and go to \Stroage Card\2.2 click on CLRCAD (4-5 times) and then click on Haret

    (In this version there is no need to copy nvram.txt to \Storage Card)


    New Image Android 2.3.5 with WIFI and Bluetooth

    http://www.multiupload.com/QUT30LPS8K

    extract to SD card and then go to \Storage card\fathom
    Click on clrcad 4-5 times and then click on haret

    For wifi it is must to copy \windows\nvram.txt to \Storage Card
    if it is difficult to copy from windows folder use attached one

    [Note : In this version i have disabled fb console so you will not see any text while booting so wait at least wait 5 min if none appears do soft reboot and then retry]

    I have worked on Toshiba kernel and ported that kernel for LG fathom.

    As of Now following Works
    GSM (Partially)
    Battery
    TouchScreen
    3D
    Audio (only through front speaker)
    Keypad (Need some work with Fn key)
    Battery
    USB (start haret while usb connected)
    USB Mass Storage and ADB
    wifi

    Not working
    Bluetooth
    Vibrator

    Issue( Solved now)
    1) Screen will flicker when USB cable was removed. workaround is to set any live wallpaper.

    How to run

    extract files on Storage card
    goto /Storage Card/tg01
    click 4-5 times on clrcad
    and then run haret-pre-0.5.3-20100625_144828-QSD8250-ONLY.exe

    http://www.multiupload.com/GK0FCMUVX6

    for wifi extract following file and put replace zImage with this one and copy bcm4329.ko to /system/lib/modules also copy \windows\nvram.txt to \Storage Card

    Link for wifi

    Great Job Ajeet! :)

    Guys,

    Just want to confirm, i tried running it on eXpo but it just gets stuck at Haret, tried clicking CLRCDR 4-5 & more times but nothing! So, has anyone able to load Android on their eXpo or is it just Fathom?

    This is only for fathom and may not work with expo.
