  2. Wow!! This is exactly what I have been waiting for. Really love the hanvon, but win 7 is just too slow. But love android!! I noticed on Flickr you have froyo working?? Any chance of getting a copy. Would love to beta test with you? I have the BC10C. Have a HTC Desire with Madoco r9 froyo rom and just love it!! Would be great to have the hanvon running the same!! Does the hanvon android you built support "market" ??

  5. The Froyo build isnt complete yet,
    the old kernel stack do not work,
    plus gesture builder doesnt work,

    in theory you can make the market work but then google will be on your case,
    good news there are 3rd party market apps which do work,

    the only main problem now is the intel 4500m and getting support for the 3DSP card...

    p.s i had to remove your other comment cause of your email,
    its never safe to leave emails on any forum or blog you never know who is watching/reading...

    It may not be appropriate to post here. Although it is still regarding Hanvon b10, this is a little off-topic!

    Recently, I was excited to have a piece of b10. I want to change the Chinese Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit to English Windows 7 Professional 32-bit and at the same time swap the original HDD to SSD.

    I have the BIOS updated to 1.8 already but it seems the BIOS is not recognizing the newly purchased Super Talent SSD drive. I tried to troubleshoot this and tried to plug in another Seagate HDD aside from the original pre-installed Toshiba HDD....But even that Seagate HDD is not being recognized by the BIOS. Tried both ACHI and IDE mode! Strange!

    I tried to do a clean install of the Eng Win7 to b10 but no matter which drive I am using (the other Seagate HDD, the Super Talent SSD or even the original Toshiba HDD). No drive are shown for installation the Win7 and it says "No drives were found. Click Load Driver to provide a mass storage driver for installation." It's understandable for the drives which are not recognized by the BIOS but Windows 7 installation can't even recognize the original Toshiba HDD from a clean installation.

    I understand it's a little off-topic but I was too frustrated about this conversion! I believe some experts can shed me some lights here. If he/she is able to get Froyo out of the b10, they definitely can manage to change the OS and drives in the b10...

  8. Did you remove the battery before changing the hard drive???
    any static can damage the serial controller,

    try,
    removing the battery 2 screws,
    then hold the power and drain any remaining power,
    reinstall the original hard drive and then plug the battery back in and see if the bios picks it back up,
    change to ACHI mode,

    regarding SSD the super talent are a pain,
    i had the same issue where as the ssd wouldnt show in my tm2,
    i had to clone the original drive and copy over to the sdd and then it worked,

    By removing 2 screws, do you mean to remove the battery completely?

    How about the "no drives were found" issue while installing Windows 7? Did you ever came across this problem as well? I did quite a bit of search on the internet and it's been reported the lack of the SATA controller driver from the Win7 installation DVD. The solution is to load that driver to Win7 installation but I have trouble even locating that driver.

    My finding is Windows 7 just cannot locate the HDD (even the original HDD) that's connected through the internal SATA in the b10. I did some tricks for troubleshooting and discovered that the SSD shows up on Win7 installation when I tried to install the SSD to an USB external HDD enclosure but Win7 cannot be installed on USB and IEEE1394.

    Did you install a SSD to your b10 as well? Which brand are you using then?

    Thanks for your suggestion. I'll give that a try.

  10. for my test drive i use a 32GB Compact Flash Card which is connected through a CF to Serial ATA adapter,
    with that i did have the same problem which was cause by a screen under the board shorting it out...

    the battery is held by 2 screws,
    unscrew and slide the battery out
