[General Questions and Answers] Chandon:
As far as I can tell, the default behavior of Android is to share the SD card as a USB mass storage device. Since the g-slate doesn't have an SD card, that doesn't work. LG did something hacky with the Windows USB drivers to mount the /sdcard folder from the internal memory, but that doesn't help us with Linux.

Hopefully this will be a pretty easy thing to fix once we start to see ROMs for the g-slate - I'm still holding my breath waiting for a confirmation that we've got an unlockable bootloader.
[General Questions and Answers] Suzannemscott:
help with syncing the G-slate with your computer

are u not getting connection and all and you just need the USB drivers? what error are you getting? i found the USB drivers and it connects perfectly now it opens up as an extra hard drive just like if it had a removable sim. :D

The G-Slate internal SD is a mess. I saw that T-Mobile forum up above a few days ago, and if it is the one I am thinking about then it had some pretty helpful responses. Not trying to hijack the thread, but someone here probably has an idea: I want to unmount the internal storage from the computer, but not unmount it from the G-Slate. Will adb unmount /sdcard work?
[General Questions and Answers] Bling_Diggity:
Why? If you don't mind me asking.

And Idk if ADB shell will be able to help you in that area or not, but you can always try it and see what happens ;)

i just rooted my backflip i have the superuser app. but when i try to install a app from a web .. doesnt let me.. can someone help me,,, thank you... :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] androidobsessed:
Ok so you rooted it, but did you install a new rom? because i believe until then, your phone is essentially the same as it was before you rooted it, on the line of thought I'd probably suggest either the unofficial cyanogenmod 6.1.2 from [modmymobile.com/forums/566-motorola-backflip-roms/561709-rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-v6-1-2-froyo-2-2-1-a.html], or the preclair if you don't want to move to 2.2 [modmymobile.com/forums/566-motorola-backflip-roms/556727-rom-preclair-v1-6-jit-netfilter-swap-ext3-ext4-tun-2-12-11-a.html] remember though that the backflip is receiving no official support so this is the best for now.. but anyway, getting web apps to download: after you've installed one of these roms, go to settings>applications>then check the Unknown Sources box, then you can sideload non-market apps
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] makr8100:
Non-market app options are based on carrier, not root access. Follow the last post's instructions on how to get there in the settings. If that fails you need a custom rom, or if you want to keep a stock rom you can sideload without root. You can search the net for Android sideload apps or use the actual Android SDK. In either of those methods you'll need USB debugging enabled in your phone's app settings.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tdesbien31:
So i think i committed the ultimate sin, I think I may have bricked my phone...

So i was trying to flash a rom right? i accidently flashed a package of the rom and not the entire rom... problem is im booted up, and cant access ANYTHING

I cant open settings, no notification bar, nothing! Just a few apps

So i tried pushing Rom manager with ADB, it says it pushed, but it does not appear in the app drawer....

Any suggestions how to get this puppy back in Clockwork so i can flash the entire rom?

The phone is worthless at its current state....
[HTC Inspire 4G] sraitter:
You will need to flash a P98IMG.ZIP file in the bootloader. I had that happen once.

Wipe the sweat off your brow ... I will research for you.

Off the top of my head if you have downloaded the Ace hack kit you will find a P98IMG.ZIP in there you can attempt to flash.

See this form topic:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952224

Bottom of the OP you will see stock rom in zip format to download from MultiUpload.

Simply place the P98IMG.ZIP file directly into your SD card.

Turn off your phone.

Turn on continuing to hold the power button and volume down button until a happy white screen comes up.

Release buttons and sit a few seconds.

Follow on screen instructions.

Enjoy your back to stock rom to try it again.

[HTC Inspire 4G] tdesbien31:
You gave me an idea that i happened to fix after your thought

I flashed into fastboot and went into the recovery mode (which puts you into clockwork)

from there i just flashed the rom.zip i intended to flash the first time around, but accidently flashed the package the 1st time around

Thanks for the idea browski!

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rain175:
So I have 2 streaks...

The first, purchased 2 weeks ago from best buy, was still running 1.6. So I flashed cwm via fastboot and installed steves 1.9. Everything working great, I have no issues.

The second, I purchased three days later. Again with 1.6 from best buy. I flashed cwm to install steves 1.9... but now I get a black screen when I go to apply the update. Like it didn't flash properly. I tried a couple of different recovery modes all of then have the same result... what do I do to get these recovery modes to work? and 2.2 on my second streak. I don't understand why it would work on the first one, and not the other.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thejaredhuang:
Same exact problem. Mine is also from BB and was running 1.6. I've managed to get the UK recovery image on there and O2 1.6 but none of the other images work.
[Atrix 4G General] Chubby_Skunk:
So I was reading around and found that AT&T only claims that your tethering when you have been using A LOT of data.

The picture below is of a guys iPhone 4 that has been using a lot of data but is charged for "tethering", even though his tethering usage is at 0. :D

*This fact has been stated before, just wanted to show proof*
[Atrix 4G General] Tylerjd:
It's nice to know that they can't see us tethering, but if you look closly, that usage hasent been reset since july of last year... so that is about 9 months.

UNLESS I'm wrong about the way the usage chart works on the iPhone (used to own a 3GS) that is a commulative amount over the period of time. If you think about it, it isn't that much data a month. Now I MAY be wrong. But I'm pretty sure I'm right...

Sent from my Atrix 4G using the XDA App
[Atrix 4G General] Chubby_Skunk:
I see what you mean, but the fact is, is that he has 0b for Tethering, which is a good sign.
[Atrix 4G General] KefkaticFanatic:
Well from what I remember from AT&T sending out all those notices, they just threw them at everyone that had large amounts of data, no matter if they actually tethered or not, and many people had confirmed that at the time.
[Atrix 4G General] Chubby_Skunk:
Yeah true. AT&T is just trying to scare people... :eek:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
Hi everyone, this is a script I wrote up and made flashable. I have found this to simply be the easiest way of changing your boot animation in no time at all!

Instructions

1. Find the bootanimation of your choice, and make sure it's named bootanimation.zip

2. Place both the bootanimation.zip + BootChanger.zip on the root of your sdcard

3. Now there's two ways to install it:

A. Use rom manager to install rom from sdcard. Find BootChanger.zip and it will

reboot into recovery all on it's own. Personally I have found this to be the

easiest way.

B. Reboot into recovery manually and install from sdcard.

4. Enjoy

This script will only install bootanimation to the /data/local directory of your phone, and should work for most roms.

The G2X disables the internal mic when the headphone jack is used... This means I can't use my car input jack and input channel for speakers for phone calls.

Without the internal mic, the callers can't hear me...

I see no way to enable to internal speaker when the headphone jack is enabled...

This worked perfect on the Vibrant...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kampf:
This also works on the Nexus One.

Simple software thing that shouldn't be an issue, but is.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crawler9:
I think it depends on the ROM. I used a few that disabled the mic when i used headphones on my N1 too, but most ROMs didn't have that problem.

sorry if this has been hashed out somewhere else but i could not find it. does anyone know if you will be able to watch hulu on the transformer. my guess is no but alas i still have to ask thanks a lot
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wynand32:
Hulu doesn't allow any mobile device to play their video, except for devices supported by Hulu+ (which I think is only iOS devices at this point).

I've been using PlayOn TV for both Netflix and Hulu on my Xoom, and it works well enough. Needs a Windows PC to stream the video, and it costs a bit of money, but actually still works out less than Hulu+ so it's a bit of a wash at this point.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] blempka:
Actually, there is a flash player mod that hex edits the lib file to trick hulu into thinking your a windows PC. It works great on the incredible aand the xoom (I'm told) :,but whether that will work with transformer is another story.

Also, to the best of my knowledge, it requires root.

[Thunderbolt General] slckofit:
The non themed version one has it I believe.

I had the exact same problem yesterday. Installed the new RUU, notice that there wasn't any sound during the first restart which is normal.

Installed Bamf 1.5 Remix and didn't hear any sound either. Even after 3 restarts there wasn't any sound. I then decided to just reflash with the Non Themed Bamf 1.5 and from the first restart, the sound was there.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stayin100:
Im no pro at this stuff by any means, but I have modded the heck out of 5 personal phones and numerous other devices for friends and co workers.

I see a lot of talk of radio's and RUU, are these the same thing? The names are so confusing to me at the moment. Im used to 4 digit Radio names that tend to work on every rom. It seems as if some of the roms are coming with their own modified radios ( RUU's? ) Just wondering if anyone could clarify some basic information on this whole deal.

Secondly it seems as if these RUU/Radio 's are flashed via stock recovery. How does one boot their TB into stock recovery and what are the controls once in stock recovery ( stock recovery and bootloader are the same thing, correct? )

How do I boot into CWR from a dead phone? If I should happen to soft brick my phone or something in the future, how do I get into CWR without being able to boot?

And lastly, can someone give me a brief explanation of what S-on and S-off are? I assume anyone thats rooted is running s-off, correct?

So far I'm rooted running the battery sipper Kernel and I don't really know what direction to take, just trying to do my research. Might wait for CM7 support to start flashing, as this phone really isn't that bad..

Thanks in advance!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slckofit:
I'm still pretty new to all of this, but this is what I've learned so far.

RUU and the radio are different. RUU has everything, the apps the firmware and radio in it. Basically what you need when you wipe your phone and go back to completely stock. Where as radio just updates your radio or baseband.

It's kind of confusing the terms that are thrown around. Some people call it Hboot some call it bootloader. To get into it, turn off your phone, hold Vol down and then the power button. Let go and you should boot into bootloader.

Having S-Off just means your phone is unlock. You're able to access files and folders that are normally locked from you. Which lets you flash roms etc.. S-on, those files/folders are locked.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike.s:
RUU is short for ROM Upgrade Utility - it's an historical name, based on a utility used to upgrade older HTC phones. For HTC Android phones, the HUU files contain images which get flashed to the phone.

Bootloader is a generic term on Android phones - the HTC one is call Hboot.

Recovery is a separate app/partition, it can be started from Hboot. If you root, you'll probably install Clockworkmod Recovery, which lets you backup/restore the partitions. It should also prevent an OTA update from being installed.

S-On/S-Off refer to a security feature which prevents unsigned images from being flashed. Rooting should set S-Off, which lets you make changes.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stayin100:
Every time I boot into hboot it wants me to confirm an update after it performs an operation it did during the root process. Should I remove that file from my sd?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike.s:
If you have an PG05IMG.zip on your sdcard, remove it. You don't want to leave it laying around after it's been flashed.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PengLord:
This is really a question on Honeycomb, not so much the Xoom. Why has there not been OS level printing support (CUPS) added to Android? This only makes sense as the last part needed to replace my laptop/netbook for everyday use.

I know I can use cloud print for a few things or even use the less the stellar apps available n the market but if there was a real printing option available in Android, apps could be written to make use of it as a standard.

Any theories or comments?

I would suggest not using a task killer cause they suck but using android assistant its really cool and works well for a lot of things including killing tasks but more important use startup Auditor you can look up programs that are always running and in background and select to kill them at start up as well as keep them killed you can still open and use the apps it just keeps them from opening by them selves

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tylerjd:
First off, I love my Atrix, but there are just a couple of small problems with it, nothing to major.

The one that I have not seen discussed here (maybe just my phone) is the market being wonky over AT&T's network. Here is what happens...

Ill be on AT&T's network trying to do things on the market like update an app or install a new one, but when I start the market up, it gives an error about not being able to access the network. The thing is though, I have a strong 3G signal.

My fix is annoying, but it works. I go to another app that uses network data and load something so it *establishes* a connection to the network, then, when I go back into the market, it works 100%. I was just wondering if this is a problem anyone else has had and if so what their fixes are?
