Sorry for the seemingly obvious question, and before I get flamed I HAVE searched, but how do we get back to Froyo bootloaders once on GB? Overcome ROMs do not come with bootloaders, so what do we flash to get the bootloaders only?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonflame2045:
Has any one else had this happen? I have added apps to an stock ROM which went through the official upgrade. The browser works fine but the apps which need internet access are showing up as being denied. I check the permission but it still shows that the app in question have permission to access the internet. I have used several of these on other devices with no problem. One of them was the preloaded Kindle app. The device is one of the Woot specials. I have not had time to change it from stock yet and besides at first glance it seemed to be working fine. :confused:

I recommend getting VEGan Tab; I'm loving it right now. Just make sure you download the actual ROM, not the supplement.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
+1 on VEGAn. I recommend getting 5.1 then applying the 5.1.1 supplement. It's rock solid and fast.

I'm waiting for the Ginger edition to come out of experimental phase before trying that version.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azturbomini:
I have searched with no luck. Any help would be great. Question, Why would I have Rom's and zip files I can see in Rom manager but can't in CWR and vice versa? I looked through my memory on the phone to see if they were possibly being saved to different folders but didn't see that is the case. I may just be dumb...

Thanks guys
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikon8:
Are you talking about in Rom Manager when you choose "Install ROM From SD Card" or "Download ROM"? If you choose install from sd card it will be the same in Rom Manager and Recovery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneticzero:
Looking in the correct folder? If you download from rom manager something it will be under clockwork folder then download folder. Also make sure you dont choose install update.zip and manually choose zip to install.

I was thinking about viruses that may come from .apks that are downloaded off the Internet instead of the market. Mostly themes and mods not from xda. I always scan the file online, just wondered if lookout was actually decent enough to detect something.

If my phone is being stolen, someone would probably taking it from inside my house or private office and should be shot in the knees.

Yes, it works. I was perusing a warez site with my phone and was about to download a file that I was unsure was safe and sure enough, Lookout deemed the file a virus. I located the file elsewhere. It is also good at locating your phone, however, I do not use it to back up my data.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
Hi Everyone,

As the thread title states, I'm currently using an OC kernel (Flippy's 1.9GHz, to be exact) and I'm noticing that I have to press the power button many times in order to get the screen to turn on. Does anyone know why this happens? I asked in the kernel thread and someone replied that this happens with all OC kernels, although no explanation was given.

I also read that this issue may be due to the screen off frequency being set too low. I currently have that set to 768MHz and this should be sufficient given the Desire Zs normal clock of 800MHz.

Does anyone have any insight about this? Thanks in advance :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowOokami:
I'm using a pershoot OC kernel and haven't met that problem yet. My cpu is set at a 386mhz minimum. Try Pershoot?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Make sure that in CM settings, screen on/off animation is turned off.

From what I can recall, its a problem with a combination of overvolting the CPU for overclocking, and having the animations turned off that results in not enough voltage to turn on the screen.

CPU stepping is also related, so you can try changing the governor and see if that helps also.

This is a common issue, and has been well covered in the CM7 thread, so just do a search in that thread for suggested settings.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
Thanks for replying :) I've disabled the screen on/off animations and the screen wakes up with no issues now.

Hopefully this issue will be fixed soon as I'm missing those animations already!
[Xoom Android Development] hawk2k8:
Comment @ 1st June 2011: In Android 3.1 stock kernel or Tiamat kernel, it has usb-hosting function enabled.So just install hellcat82’s apk and ignore this guide, you could get your NTFS disk mounted.

All Thanks to Roebeet who has enabled usb hosting on xoom.

see the detail at here.

But it didn't support NTFS partition at this time, so i write this guide for ntfs supporting.

( hellcat82 has written a tool to simplify mounting NTFS drives, no need to push any file to android anymore. By just installing one apk, you will get everything. Let's give cheers to hellcat82! )

1.preparing

1.1 hardware

one microUSB male to USB-A female OTG cable.

one powered USB hub with USB-A male connector.

usb external harddisk.

1.2 software

Kernel: root your xoom and enable USB hosting mode by Roebeet‘s hack. or update kernel to Tiamat Xoom 1.1.6 which integrated Roebeet‘s hack.

NTFS supporting: NTFS-3g compiled by farazite , the newest version is on page 2 of that post.

Script Tool:gscript lite, downloadable from market.

2. push ntfs-3g supporting files to xoom

comment: ntfsvolume.apk is not compatible with xoom, so we can just use ntfs-3g and umount_force. at this moment, there is a bug in umount_force which can only dismount one partition, if we mount more than one ntfs partition, then we can not dismount all partitions totally.

adb remount
adb push ntfs-3g /system/xbin
adb push umount_force /system/xbin
adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin/ntfs-3g /system/xbin/umount_force

3. Connecting Xoom,USB hub and USB disk

4. Mounting USB disks

use gscript lite to mount disk(s), or you can test this script via adbwireless, because we have no room to connect xoom and PC now.

mount -o remount,rw /
mkdir /mnt/ntfsdisk
ln -s /mnt/ntfsdisk /ntfsdisk
ntfs-3g /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/ntfsdisk

sda1 is the first partition of the first disk,

sdb1 is the first partition of the second disk.

and so on.

if you want to mount the second disk, the reference script is

mkdir /mnt/ntfsdisk2
ln -s /mnt/ntfsdisk2 /ntfsdisk2
ntfs-3g /dev/block/sdb1 /mnt/ntfsdisk2

PS:if the partition of your disk is FAT16/32, then you needn't doing anything , it will be auto mounted by Roebeet's hack.

5. Dismounting USB disks

umount_force /mnt/ntfsdisk

example:

I mounted one USB flash disk(512MB), one 2.5 inch hard disk(120GB), one 3.5 inch hard disk(2TB)

the ntfs partition can be read and written without problem.

[Xoom Android Development] cavemanb:
Does this work on the wifi only version also....

Just checking before I test this out...
[Xoom Android Development] hawk2k8:
No, the usb port can not provide sufficient current to spin hard disk. so I used a powered USB hub to connect hard disk.

(I have tested it just a moment ago, xoom couldn't identify the 2.5 inch hard disk without powered USB hub.)

I tested it on CDMA version, but think it should work on wifi versioon also, because it isn't network-related.

I spent less than 2 dollars to buy it at china.

I think it should be less than $5 in UK.
[Xoom Android Development] ericdabbs:
Is there a hard drive size limit that it can't support for this USB fix?

I have an 2TB external hard drive that I would like to use but I am not sure it will work. It is currently formatted in NTFS mode.
[Xoom Android Development] thegeektern:
There shoudnt be any limit, the limit is based on the file system. Unless there is some system limit.
[Xoom Android Development] myv6mustang:
Ok makes sense...will order the cable and give this a shot.
[Xoom Android Development] apollyon0810:

[Xoom Android Development] eaglecomm:
I am a bit stuck at #4.

-------------------------

4. Mounting USB disks

use gscript lite to mount disk(s), or you can test this script via adbwireless, because we have no room to connect xoom and PC now.

Code:

mount -o remount,rw /

mkdir /mnt/ntfsdisk

ln -s /mnt/ntfsdisk /ntfsdisk

ntfs-3g /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/ntfsdisk

-------------------------

Sorry for the ignorance....

I tried running the mount commands from adb through adbwireless.

I get 'mount' not a recognized command.

I then use terminal directly on the xoom and make it through mount, mkdir and ln.

When I attempt to execute ntfs-3g I get 'Permission Denied'.

I am logged in with root permission through su.

Also wrote the script (minus the mkdir since I already created it) in gscript and it also ends in 'permission denied'.

Additional testing...

I can see the drive fine when I run fdisk -l /dev/block/sda1

I have the /ntfsdisk folder mounted as r/w

Thoughts? Thanks for writing this up...
[Xoom Android Development] hawk2k8:
sorry for the 'Permission Denied' of ntfs-3g.

It missed a chmod command in the first post.

we should run

adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin/ntfs-3g /system/xbin/umount_force

to get the permission.
[Xoom Android Development] eaglecomm:
That did it! Thanks...

Funny.. I got..

Couldn't set local environment, using default '(null)'.

The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).

The file system wasn't safely closed on Windows. Fixing.

:) I think I probably just pulled the usb device out of the laptop without closing it properly.. eager to see if it found my files.

So.. all is well. Thanks again!

1 more question. Is there a need to unmount before the USB drive is removed? Or can it now be plugged and removed at leisure without causing any issues?

Bummer... now it's gone. I went somewhere else, then went back in to Root Explorer and the ntfsdisk folder is empty. Nothing was disconnected. Maybe it times out after a minute or two?

And the only way I could get it to show up again was to run it as if it was the second partition. Does it hold a value that needs to be released? I ran the umount statement.

Here is what I had to execute: ntfs-3g /dev/block/sda2 /mnt/ntfsdisk
[Xoom Android Development] hawk2k8:
If you haven't written data to the disk, I think it would be safe to unplug the cable directly.

for the issue of lost mounting, I have never met it, need some time to observe it.
[Xoom Android Development] eaglecomm:
right, no worries..

And once I did a umount_force and then reconnected, it was seen as sda1 again. Maybe just a fluke.

Thanks.
[Xoom Android Development] hm1b:
can this be applied to WIFI only Xoom version or not? to my knowledge there is some software differences with 3G.
[Xoom Android Development] eaglecomm:
I am running Wifi.. worked for me. Don't know if it messed anything else up. ;) But so far I think the xoom is still truckin' along.
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
Anybody tried this using a pen drive and no external power? How about mounting another Android phone's Sd card?

I'm curious. Does anybody know the output current on that port? If it's 600mA as has been said that's sufficient to power some 2.5" and 1.8" "passport" HDDs.
[Xoom Android Development] eaglecomm:
If you try your phone card, back it up first. I am not sure which action wiped my phone's microSD card, but it's now blank. :( It only had apps on there, no real data so I can just take the time to put them back on.. but....

Here are the steps i was playing with and I am not sure which one wiped it.

1. Inserted card in to microSD card adapter to check which file system it was (FAT or NTFS.. it was FAT32

2. When windows read it, it said it was not formatted properly and asked if I wanted to. I said 'NO'.

3. Then tried it in the MicroSD slot of the Xoom (for grins and giggles.. nothing)

4. Then accessed it through the host cable - didn't see anything on the drive so I thought it wasn't reading it properly.

5. Put it back in my phone.. phone said it was a blank card. :(

Oh well.. life moves on and another lessoned learned the hard way. The downside of experimenting.

Also, I tried a Toshiba 500G external drive (has only 1 miniUSB port but came with a dualUSB y-split port cable.. one for transferring and one for charging)... and the xoom didn't see any of the files on it. So I think it needed more power.. but I didn't go further as this one wasn't backed up yet and I didn't want to test my luck after the microSD incident. :)
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
None of those stages if you performed them as you say should have wiped it. If ou need anything back use a linux box to recover the partition because it's unlikely the data was lost just the table.
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
I said it puts out about 600, because I hooked up my evo and charged it. These are the numbers, but remember the evo uses about 50-100 to stay idle.

Thanks for the numbers. They would suggest there is certainly enough juice there to power certain of the USB powered HDDs, it just depends if it can maintain the current at voltage required.

Does anybody have a smaller 1.8" portable hdd they can try?

The standard 500mA devices are probably pushing it near its limit.
[Xoom Android Development] eaglecomm:
Thanks, don't have a linux box around, but will see if I can figure out any other options. Maybe I can load a virtual box or an emulator in windows. I am not a linux guy so just throwing those out there. But thanks, I will do some research.
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
In that case, try out the freeware Windows tool "Recuva" I believe it's made by Pirifom, and please accept my apologies, sometimes I forget that Linux isn't everyone's cup of tea.
