General FAQs
Not Working
Camera - there is a test kernel to work out issues related to it.
BT - pairs but doesn't pass any audio/data
3.5mm jack - RHOD400/500 has this plug, and it doesn't work at the moment
USB - only works for adb (debugging)
For a more complete list, please see this thread (thanks manekineko)
Contacts
On the Android side, if you simply set your Google account to sync, (and you sync with WinMo) all your contacts will synchronize between operating systems - if you add a contact in WinMo, it syncs to your Google account, and same if you add a contact in Android.
How much space do I need on my Storage Card?
The data.img file by default is 256mb. With everything else, it's usually around 480mb, so a 512mb card will just barely suffice - you won't be able to fit much else on the card except for XDAndroid however!
My touchscreen doesn't work / poorly calibrated
Delete the ts-calibration file from the root of your SD card (or where ever you run haret.exe from). The next boot you will see a calibration screen, watch the boot process carefully!
LED always orange / green
This represents sleep state (Orange=Wake, Green=Sleep). If you never seen green, the phone isn't properly sleeping. Make sure GPS is disabled, as this will kill sleep.
Time Drift
There are two types of time drift reported - if you notice your clock drifting in Android, download ClockSync (on the Market) - I have it set to sync the clock every hour.
The second type of drift people have reported is when they boot back to WinMo, and they're clock is 6, 8 etc hours off. This is because Windows stores the time locally, and Linux (and a lot of other systems) store in UTC or GMT. Usually if you sync the time in WinMo with your network provider, you'll never have a problem. Some have said this still doesn't work, then a third party app for WinMo that keeps time in sync is necessary.
Google Voice Issues
If you have trouble dialing out using Google Voice, place this line in your startup.txt (in the 'cmdline' section...)
north_am_dialing=1
Wifi problems
If the AP is secured with WEP, it will not work. This protocol is extremely insecure, but if you do not have a choice there is an app called 'wifi-ace' on the market that can resolve this issue for you.
If you have issues with hidden networks, the aforementioned app will fix this too!

WEP-Encrypted Wifi Networks
There is currently an issue with WiFi access points which use WEP encryption. The system currently does not support WEP out of the box, but a Market app called wifi-ace will work around this issue.
