This is a ? My boss asked me can you block websites like you can on a pc on a android phone. My boss is going to get his son a android phone and he was wondering if this is possible so he dosent go on any dirty sites we all know what he means lol
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
The phone would probably have to be rooted. The way that ad-free blocks ads is by using a hosts file (just like on Windows). You could edit this to include known pornography sites. However, I'm sure it would be hard to block ALL of them. There are probably hosts files available for download that block all known porn sites (or most), but I'm not sure of how they would need to be edited to work for android.
[General Questions and Answers] jockovonred:
1. Root and use AdFree app (or one via a custom ROM aka SyndicateROM Frozen)

2. Root and remove the browser and market

3. Route all browser traffic on the phone through a home network with a child monitoring service installed (untangle, mono-wall, etc)

4. Have the boss audit the child's phone on a regular basis, talk about the pr0n found and then commence the nightly beatings :)

5. Have the boss call the mobile provider for options on disabling data access

5. Don't let the boss buy his child a smartphone; go for a dumb-phone without a data plan instead

Try remove spaces from nandroid backup folder's name.
[Defy Android Development] lanfearxt:
besides the having no spaces in the name as mentioned above, make sure the nandroid is at the backup folder and there are no more folders inside as well, like below

...backup/ (backup folder name)/nandroid

having this

...backup/ (backup folder name)/ (another folder)/nandroid will have md5 mismatch
[Defy Android Development] Sqoerk:
probably something went wrong while calculating the md5 sum.

Copy the img file to your PC and calculate a new md5 sum. Place both in a folder in your backupfolder.

Remember that its possible that you end up with a not running system and you have to reflash the SBF

I have heard reports that you can't use a card > 16Gb in the tablet but that's unconfirmed AFAIK.

I've also heard rumours that the keyboard's full-size SD card slot will take SDXC format cards which supports >32Gb capacity but again I've seen no confirmation of that.

I am snapping this up as soon as it's released here.

Questions on the storage:

1-As mentioned above, is this confirmed that the tablet microSD won't accept anything larger than 8GB?

2- If i get the dock and say I have a 16gb microsd card in the tablet and 32gb sd card in the dock, i should be able to access BOTH of these from the tablet (while docked) correct? So theoretically, I would have 16GB-built in flash on tablet + 16GB microsd card on tablet + 32GB SD card in dock = 64GB?

3-I just want to find out if by docking the tablet, the tablet storage just acts like another drive?

Thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwer23:
1- Even though I have the original manual here as a pdf, there's no info on what is the maximum size of SD card in the tablet slot.

2- I'm 99% sure that it's like that. Everything else would be stupid because many android applications store data on the (tablet) sd card.

3- yes, quite sure it does.

As a plus, you can use the USB 2.0 ports to add external hard drives.

Hope I could help.

There's a way to use USB host without the dock? I don't want to buy the keyboard because i've already got a 13" notebook for mobility, i just need a tablet but the USB host is necessary for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgdg:
Thanks for the reply!

In that case, I can't wait to get this tablet what a great concept, best of both worlds. No need to buy a case, just shut the lid and you can carry it on travel without worrying too much just like a laptop, with all the various expandability options, no need to worry about HDD space either.

When combined with dock, it actually has 2 3.5mm sockets, which means I can use 1 device and myself and my wife can watch the same thing with 2 headphones and not worry about viewing angles thanks to the IPS screen...

So long as the 16GB tablet+dock comes in at around $500 or less, I am good...!

Did you by any chance find out what is the maximum capacity of the microSD card that can be used in the tablet?

Hi,

Im on 2.1 .435 roooted with busybox installed.

i downloaded a CM7.0.0-RC1-3.ZIP (74MB) from a link followed on this forum.

I created a folder called "xrecovery" and "backup" on SD card

I went into xrecovery menu and made a backup

I then did a factory wipe, wiped cache partition,wiped Dalvik cache, wiped battery stats.

I then chose to install custom ROM from SD Card (this is where the problem arose), after selecting the CM7 ROM ZIP folder, i selecting install.

A few seconds later i get an error message saying installation aborted ,"ERROR E:SD CARD/(then gives the location of the cm7.zip file in sd card)

could i have downloaded the wrong CM7.ZIP file? or did i put the CM7.zip file on the wrong place on the SD Card? the error occurs when custom zip file is installing.

Pls advice.

Hey all, first post so I hope it's in the correct forum. Today I tried downgrading my Vodafone branded DHD, following the guide on the Cyanogen wiki, but I can't seem to get past rebooting the phone and making HBOOT flash PD98IMG.zip from the Goldcard. I successfully get temp root after 'adb shell', the push commands work fine, so do the chmod commands, just not the actual rebooting and downgrading part.

I'll happily go through my entire list of commands if necessary. I'm at a complete loss for why it didn't work.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Have you made a Goldcard yet?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoxiousStimuli:
Yes, a 1GB card, made sure it wasn't an SDHC. Tried it with MMC0 and MMC2.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
Then try some SDHC card.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoxiousStimuli:
Tried that, MMC2. That card I did get the furthest with, instead of it cycling through the list of PD98IMG.*** I got a CID mismatch error. I can't get the card to even format anymore though, pretty sure it's KIA.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
If your getting a CID mismatch then your goldcard didn't work, try using the one that came with the phone.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoxiousStimuli:
Surely that would render the card unusable for everyday use.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xtrema:
I had to make a Goldcard to debrand my Vodafone DHD.

I followed the instructions on this page:

http://android.modaco.com/content/general-discussion/305672/creating-a-goldcard/

I just bought a cheap 2gig SD card and it worked first time and i can use the SD card.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoxiousStimuli:
That's the exact same guide I followed to the letter, but it obviously didn't work.

On the card I'm trying it with now though, I don't even get far enough to get a CID error, I boot into the bootloader, and it cycles through the list of PD98IMG files, and returning me to the main bootloader screen.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xtrema:
All i can suggest is you try it again. Making sure you run the hex editor as admin. It's easy to get the physical and logical disks the wrong way around so be careful of that.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoxiousStimuli:
Nope, made sure I was admin, read only was disabled, and selected the physical disc, then double checked that I overwrote the correct offset range.

I'll try again with the card my phone came with. My only concern is that it came with an 8gb SDHC card, and I've been told those aren't suitable for use as a Goldcard.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xtrema:
I'm told it doesn't matter what the card capacity is. The larger ones are more expensive if you kill them though.

I just bought a cheapy 2gig one and it debranded first time.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoxiousStimuli:
I've double, triple and quadruple checked every single command I enter and every line of every guide I've used. I can quite happily get to the "reboot and follow the instructions in HBOOT to flash PD98IMG" part of the guide, my phone just decides it doesn't want to do that. No CID errors, it just flat out refuses to acknowledge PD98IMG. All I get are "No image!" and "No image or wrong image!" errors, cycling through the entire list of PD98IMG files.

I've tried 3 different SD cards, even the one the phone came with originally, and I still get the same result. It simply will not flash PD98IMG.

Edit: I've successfully rooted my phone after taking the plunge and using my 8gb card. Goldcard worked a charm, and I'm now running CM7 with no problems. Thanks for all the help.
