[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
im running mint 10 kde and my phone is on jvh gingerbread (continuum 5.4 actually) and the quicksshd app (the free one detected continuums add blocking and told me to buy it if i didnt want to see ads.)

well i dont know if it is an app update or kde is weird but your link/shortcut takes me to /data/data/... it doesnt matter. but for some reason i could only back it up to /data on my phone i had no root access, it didnt make much sense.

well i changed the shortcut url to "sftp://root@192.168.1.xxx:22/ "

for newbs

22 is the port the app listens on. you may have to adjust that if you use a different app or changed the port for what ever reason. where xxx is the last part of the phones ip adress. the ssh app will report this if you dont know it.

now all is good. i thought id add this incase someone else has issues reaching root on there phones

Easier and better than SFTP is Samba for android:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.funkyfresh.samba

Better because you have random access to your files (e.g. you can say edit a word document without having to copy it off of your phone first,) easier because accessing it is built into windows and mac with no downloading, installing, or configuring necessary. I set my netbios name on my phone to jjdphone, so in windows I just hit start and type:

\\jjdphone

On a mac it would be finder > network > jjdphone

Linux you'd use smbmount if you have samba installed.

Having SSH available is great for terminal access, so install that too, because then there's no need to have your phone's drivers or the android SDK installed in order to gain shell access to your phone. Plus you have no need for any wires.

Why do this over wireless ADB? AFAIK adb push is faster than ftp, scp, and sftp.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Wireless ADB leaves a security hole on your phone. Anyone can connect to it. It's not password protected, and it's not encrypted. SSH is a tunneling protocol. It's lightweight form factor allows it to be always on and not cause problems with hogging processor. When you use ADB wireless, anyone can push applications and run commands on your phone without authentication.

Between SSH and ADB, it's better for everyone to stick with SSH unless they're debugging an application. ADB was designed to be used over a secure wire. SSH was designed to be used always.

Working great here on a HTC Vision.

I do have a question though, I'm trying to create a Desktop short cut on Windows & I cant for the life of work it out! I have it all working though WinSCP but I would love to be able to have a direct shortcut to the MicroSD within Windows Explorer.

Is this possible & how would I achieve it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
im not sure if you can with ssh because im still learning linux, but if you only want access to the sdcard you can use an ftp or samba app and mount is as a network drive. i believe desktop shortcuts can be made to network drives.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:

Nice tutorial and useful too. I used to do something very similar with my Iphone (I know I know, no comments please lol). This was all achieved through Total Commander.

What I also used to do, and not sure if you can with Android is have my screen on the pc/laptop so if you do something on the device, then it would show the actions on the pc/laptop and visa versa. It did actually come handy when displaying a Powerpoint at Uni, it just created a bridge to my phone using RealVNC and something called Veency. Veency is not available in the Market so dont know if I can achieve something similar, it displayed the ppt on the large monitor over wi-fi so everyone could see.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I too am an ex-jailbroken-iPhone user. I used the same apps. On this phone, you can do the same, but it's easier as you can use your gallery and just push a folder of pictures to your phone to set up a presentation.

The app you are looking for is called "Droid VNC server" It sets up a standard VNC connection so that you can control your phone from the computer.

I used Droid VNC server once to allow a French developer to control my own dev phone which was here in USA. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010923 I put my phone in the DMZ of my router, then started Droid VNC server and "adbWireless" which allowed him to push an application through the internet onto my phone via adbWireless, then connect via Droid VNC server to test it out. Once the setup was out of the way, it functioned like an Android VM on his computer while my dev phone was performing actions all on it's own. I wouldn't do this on a daily driver as that would allow full access to -everything- on the phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megar3:
Thank for the tip (droid VNC).

About QuickSSHD / AndroidSSHD / SSHdroid, all my attempt failed.

The ssh service is started, it works from the phone, but NOT from the network.

Even on a LAN.

It is like "something" block the packet to the SSHD service.

It is not iptables: I tested iptables -L, and all three routes are set to "ACCEPT"...

Tried with Kyrillos ROM v3, v4, v5 on a Samsung GT-I5800.

Any clue ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
ssh has built in protection. If you're using the same IP address as a previous phone, then there may be some old RSA key which was transferred causing the connection not to go through because of lack of verification. Try changing the static IP address on the phone to make it reauthenticate. Also, make sure you have no firewall software on your phone or computer. port 22 must be working.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megar3:
I don't think I have a firewall in my phone.

1/ iptables -L list all 3 chains as ACCEPT.

2/ If I install Droid VNC server, it can be reached from my PC.

The connection is not even established, so it is not a matter of server key.

I tried reflashing stock JPM firmware, and the phone behaves the same way.

I can ping the phone (192.168.1.30). My phone can ping my main PC (192.168.1.6). The phone can telnet to 127.0.0.1:22 but my PC can't telnet to 192.168.1.30:22.

Also tried to set the port to 2222, it doesn't change anything.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Ssh is not telnet. You want to use putty or ssh to make the connection. Is SFTP working?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megar3:
Thank your for your answer.

Yeah I know that ssh is not telnet. I use ssh all day long at my works and home.

I specified 'telnet 192.168.1.30 22" to test to connect to port 22.

If it was open, it would have shown "dropbear/ssh ssh server......." etc...

SFTP is not working either, because is is an application that run on top of ssh. And since SSH does not connect, SFTP cannot run either.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Xxx represents your IP. You need to get the IP address of the device.

My phone is screwed up and I can not connect via usb. I want to revert to stock to send in for warranty. Would this method work to connect and maybe run odin to revert to stock? Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EchoSource:
How is your phone screwed up? Is the connector damaged on the phone or won't your computer recognize the phone?

If the computer can't recognize the phone, make sure you have the correct drivers if you're on Windows, or try different usb ports.

I don't think this would allow you to use odin on your phone because for odin to work you need to have it in download mode. You need to run an app on the phone for this guide to be useful.

I hope this helps, good luck recovering your phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dracdoctor:
I can only turn the phone on with a battery pull and install or volume up and power into recovery, then reboot phone. With the phone off I get nothing, used to get image of the battery.

So I have about a month left before warranty runs out so I wanted to get back to stock.

That is when I found cpu will not see the phone. Tried new cable, different cpu. deleted drivers and reinstalled.

Just curious I asked this to someone else. Is it possible for someone to send something from their phone (evo) ota that would scramble my phone? Didn't download or except email or text from him. We were on the same job and close to each other. That is when the phone problem started.

Thanks for the help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EchoSource:
Okay, you can get into recovery fine, that's good. Did you try doing volume down + power while turning the phone on? That will take you to download mode. But, if the computer won't recognize then that won't help... Try opening Odin and connecting your phone with USB to your computer. If Odin recognizes the phone in a COM port then there is at least communication.

You might want to try backing up everything with titanium backup and flash a compatible new kernel or flash the entire ROM again. Did USB work before on this ROM? Is USB-Debugging on?

As for your question, I have never heard of that. Sorry, I can't help you there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
You won't run Odin, but the method will help.

copy the stock FactoryFS, kernel, and Modem to your SDCard

then, in a terminal run:

dd if=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs bs=4096 of=/dev/block/stl9
dd if=/sdcard/zImage bs=4096 of=/dev/block/bml7
dd if=/sdcard/modem.bin bs=4096 of=/dev/block/bml12

Before you do so, verify in your device Q&A forum that these are the proper blocks and that your bootloaders for your current ROM are the same or you may end up unrecoverable.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dracdoctor:
Odin does not see the phone.

I did reflash the current ROM and kernel again still no difference.

Yes it worked fine before.

Mass storage is selected and debugging is on.

After reading through tons of pages it appears Samsung has this problem in different variations.

Okay, firstly, this rocks! Thank you for the guide.

This works great on WiFi.

Now I am curious if anybody has success getting this to work over the internet instead of a local network.

I went to Whatsmyip.org to check my IP. I entered my public IP in WinSCP and tried to connect. It times out.

I also tried the IP address that QuickSSHD lists, which is different from the IP address that whatsmyip.org shows. That times out also.

I tried several ports on Canyouseeme.org from my phone's browser to no avail. Nothing seems open. I cannot ping either of these addresses either.

I'm pretty hazy when it comes to how the cellular networking infrastructure is set up. Is each IP address handed to a single user, or are groups of cell phone users assigned a single public IP address?

I guess what it boils down to is this: how do I access my phone from internet?

Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server?

I really wish there was a Root Market for rooted applications like Cydia is for Jailbroken apps.

EDIT:

I found a program called: "SSH Server" by the developer: "Ice Cold Apps" and it lets you choose a custom port, so I just did that and now I have SSH and SFTP connectivity on my device.

Now how do we turn on port 22?? It's being used by something and I don't want it running.

That depends on your router. With another phone I use as a hotspot, I see ~5MB/S, but if you have a fast router, SSH itself isn't a bottleneck.

I have a nexus one with an innocase 2 and it leaves absolutely no room for a screen protector. Anyone that owns one for the inspire/dhd; does it leave room for a protector film?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyne2199:
It does leave just enough room for a Seidio screen protector when you use a Seidio Innocase II case. I believe Seidio custom molds those cases so that when you use one of their screen protectors, it'll give you a tight fit around the edges of the screen. Personally, I like the fact that the inside edge of the case overhangs the screen protector by about 1/16" all the way around the bottom and sides. It gives the phone a clean, professional look and their screen protectors don't have that "orange-peel" effect.
