[Milestone 2 General] smacky_wolf:
I don't agree with the people discounting the finding. I've dug through what is the theory behind it. Basically, if they used the same random integer (as sony did) and we can get more than one SHA1 codee (we can! each of the official roms has one!) you can directly solve X (let x = private key, used to sign the roms). If it's zero, it's even easier to solve.

That is, if it really is this cypher (elgamal) and they really did re-use the key for signing (it's not unheard of! look at sony! they did both of these things using the same cypher.) then we are home free. All that remains is to work out the process for signing the roms, and we can SBF to our hearts content.

Basically, the cypher used breaks down ultra simplistically to this:

SHA1 key = randInt (masterKey - 1)

It's very simply, but you'd have to know what you were looking for to get it. It's likely that Moto was just going for security by obfuscation, not -actual- security. Otherwise they would have used a real random integer.

Hey guys i have a question that no1 did answer in any Sense HD rom tread i posted,namely it's to do with the partitioning of the Sdcard for D2ext Roms'.Almost all dev's say that u need to partition it accordingly to fat32 (w/e GB) + ~1gb Ext4 + 0.1 GB Ext4 + 0.1Gb Swap... or similar.

now my question is...do i really need a Swap partition? and how to get the 2 ext4 partitions,cuz i do my formating via MiniTool Partition Wizard ,and it doesnt have an ext4 support...?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zone23:
You can't switch recoveries like that. The recovery you used to backup is the one you must use to restore. Backup with clockwork you have to use clockwork to restore you can't use RA.

Pretty good application. I like it a lot. There is only one feature I wish it had, and maybe you guys can tell me if there is something similar out there to DW that would have this one additional feature.

With Windows 7, if you try to use a network program that you haven't used before, a pop-up will appear asking you if you trust it and want to allow it to communicate with the Internet. It would be nice if DW had this, whereas it would pop up when there was network communication from an app for the first time, asking you if it should allow the communication. That way you can adjust your settings for that app right in the pop-up... PLUS, it would be instant notification if something new that you didn't want communicating with the network, was trying to do so.

Guys/Gals:

I just rooted my Thunderbolt, and I decided the first ROM I was going to get was Adryn's Bloatware remover. I installed the ROM successfully using ROM Manager, relocated the boot.img to the android-sdk/tools folder, and then attempted to run the fastboot flash command, but it always hangs up on "waiting for device."

My drivers are all update (I'm fairly sure), and I'm at my wits end with this now. I've been browsing topics and forums for hours and haven't found out what is wrong. Any help on this "waiting for device" issue? I rooted my phone earlier today, and Root Check says its still good, so what piece of the puzzle and I missing? Thanks.
[Android] kmartburrito:
Hi there,

I've recently dove into ROM Development for my Evo due to a weird issue that I'm seeing on my device. This issue is also seen on many other devices from tablets to the nexus one. I seem to be one of the only few that's seeing it on the Evo, and the general community doesn't have enough knowledge to assist. I'm hoping someone will know some ideas to try from a cooking standpoint to see if I can fix this for my particular situation and maybe help out the others that are grasping for a fix from Google and aren't getting one.

In my situation, ADB ONLY works on the initial base release of FroYo from Sprint with regards to HTC Sense-based roms. When Sprint released their second updated base, 3.28.651.1, ADB was/is broken. I can get ADB to work in Recovery as well as ANY AOSP rom, so I'm thinking the culprit might be the Kernel (g3a8614e and onwards) and/or the base version.

USB Debugging does not work because the ADBD process is not running. See this Google bug for what the Nexus users are seeing:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9437

I'm very knowledgeable, and have tried so many rom and kernel combos it's disgusting :) YES, I've turned on USB Debugging. the ADBD process does not run, and throws a segmentation fault whenever you try to start it. I've checked my properties file to make sure the service.persist is enabled, yada yada.

I've torn apart the kernel from that initial release and paired it with a later base. The ADBD process then runs, but ADB still doesn't work. I've also, like other users in that link, have pulled out an ADBD process from the working one, and that also does not work, although it too makes the ADBD process function again inside the ROM.

So my questions are:

Can anyone explain what might be causing the ADBD process to be blocked? There's not much documentation out there on it. What part of the ROM build controls all of that? My initial thought was the boot.img, and I've messed around with that, diff'ing an older working ROM with a newer one to no avail.

Can anyone suggest something to try, or a technique to frankenstein something that might work? I'm an Android dev, and I can't put my in process app on my phone and test it because ADB simply doesn't work. My app uses the camera, so I need my phone instead of the emulator. I'd rather not flash an old rom or AOSP rom, because I'm really trying to figure out what's going on!!!

Thank you so much in advance for any assistance you can provide. If you can help me figure this out, I'll gladly send you a donation!

BTW, this subforum is amazing! I stumbled onto it looking for a better way to pack and unpack boot images.

How can I tell if I am running voodoo or not? I have been flashing roms like crazy but I want to make sure I stay consistent with voodoo or not.

Thanks
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hatespawn:
Flash a non-voodoo kernel and see if you bootloop/force close of death. If you do then you're probably already voodoo.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thefunkbot:
thats the worst way to check... dont do that.

install quadrant and if you get higher than 1200 or so you probably are on voodoo.

OR you can do these commands in adb.

adb shell
mount | grep system

the result from that will show either system type ext4 or rfs, if it is ext4 you are on voodoo.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkirby11:

[Captivate General] Jergling:
Since installing Cognition, my Captivate's battery life has gotten steadily worse, and I'm reasonably sure that the calibration is off. As it is, even with 3G off, I still barely make it to the end of a regular day. Something's very wrong with the battery calibration. I did flash on a less-than-full battery, which is probably what caused the problem in the first place.

For example: A little while ago, I discharged the battery until the phone shut itself off. I was then able to restart from the same battery two more times (without charging), both times showing 3-4% remaining. The phone stayed on a reasonable amount of time with those charges, and shut itself off nicely when it read <1%.

Just now, i plugged it in, turned it on, and it immediately read 17%. It is now draining at a rapid speed, but it still has too much charge to truly be anywhere near empty. My multimeter reads 3.61v on the 3.7v battery, just for reference.

I recalibrated my battery just yesterday, but there is still a discrepancy between the percent when off and the percent when on. I don't believe I'm actually charging to 100% capacity or draining to 0.

Cutting to the chase: How do I completely zero-out my battery stats and actual charge at the same time for an accurate calibration?
[Captivate General] diablo009:
Battery calibration that we follow here is strictly for the OS. Battery too has a chip in it that sends the readings to OS. Let ur battery do its charge-discharge cycles over a couple weeks, and see if its adjusted. Try not to delete ur battery stats again n again. Give both OS and battery to adjust to each other.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
If you are on the newest version of Cognition with DG's Cog kernel there is some trouble with it. DG knows about it and is working on a fix. You'd know that if you are reading the Cog thread.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
ROM-specific posts should go in their matching sticky in the Q&A subforum. Had you looked in there you would have seen the battery issues with the current version and that DG is working on it.

A search of battery stats would also have answered your question about that aspect. SGSTools allows you to delete battery stats easily.
[Captivate General] Jergling:
I guess it might have been faulty to assume that this is a general hardware problem, but I'm not using the newest build of Cog. I'll check my version and then read the release log in the thread l, then. In the meantime I'll go through a couple charge cycles before making any judgements.
