[Thunderbolt General] need bb:
I was running root with a 1.12.x based rom and I decided to update to a newer firmware by flashing the stock 1.13 RUU. The stock RUU removed the root access, and now a get the boot loader security warning. I thought the security warning was only an issue downgrading firmwares?

Thanks
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
Nope... and why did you decide to do what you did? :confused:
[Thunderbolt General] need bb:
Wanted to try the stock version before moving to a modded rom. I knew that downgrading was an issue, but I assumed that upgrading would just over write the partitions.
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
If you bought your phone new, you already had the stock version. All the new leak brought were a few fixes and such, it wasn't a new version of sense or android.

If you have a SECURITY WARNING, don't freak.

Recovering from this error:

Until we have newer RUUs, you only have one maybe two chances to do this. Since you obviously know how to flash an RUU, I am not going to go through the

process again.

Flashing this firmware the stock (1.12.605.6) firmware will fix this error.

However if you get a MAIN VERSION HIGHER error while flashing, you only have one choice to recover, by flashing the newer than stock (1.12.605.9) firmware.

If you are having issues, or are freaked out come find me in the chat (check my signature for a link). If I help you, I expect a donation to the Boys and Girls Club in the name of REWT.

Hope this helps!!!
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
You're going to have to go through the entire rooting process. I'm not 100% sure if you can or not, but trying will be step 1..
[Thunderbolt General] bunique4life05:
I downloaded both firmware and they won't open either nor does the boot loader?
[Thunderbolt General] jcase:
1.13 is not stock, and apparently it is behaving like the older RUUs, this sucks really bad for us. Hop on our webchat (look in signature) and give me a shout and lets see if we can fix it.
[Thunderbolt General] tekhna:
jcase, just so I can be clear here what the problem is, if you upgrade to the new, leaked radio it is no longer possible to downgrade to the stock radio?
[Thunderbolt General] jcase:
Thats not the problem.

Problem is he some how triggered the signed bootloader. Which since it should be the same bootloader as stock, with the same flashing order, I am not sure how he did it.

trying to share my HTC heros connection with my transformer but it isn't working. Neither bluetooth or wifi.

Another option is if someone gives me a guide to set up internet sharing from windows 7, which I cannot find for the life of me.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] case0:
Your hero is rooted right? Mine tethers over Bluetooth fine using 'wireless tether for root users'.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ClevelandBrown:
Running rooted 2.3.3 on the hero, the updated transformer cant see airshare adhoc network. Wirelessteather also failed in the same way.

Wirelessteather does work with bluetooth.:)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotekz:
can you tether your hero to your laptop? does your phone's wifi hotspot work? it is disabled from some carriers
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
wifi hotspot doesnt work but, I've flashed froydvillain (2.2) and gonna give bluetooth tether a try. And nice to see some hero users in here.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davedontmind:
Did you have any success in the end?

My Transformer's just arrived, and I'd like to tether to my rooted Hero, but can't figure it out.

If I choose WiFi mode, the Transformer can't see the Hero in the list of WiFi networks.

If I choose Bluetooth mode, I can pair the devices, but then what? How to I create the network connection? In Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Tethering & portable hotspot I turned on Bluetooth tethering, but it's not clear to me if that's to allow the Transformer to be the hotspot (i.e. server instead of client).

(Running VillainROM v13 on my Hero)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speckledpig:
This has been a problem for many of us....it has been discussed in a few other threads also. Honeycomb (by default) won't connect to adhoc wifi networks.

I will donate to anyone who can create a hassle-free turnkey solution for this. Many of us have Android phones that are rooted, so a solution would benefit many. And I am using a Tilt 2, whose Android ROMs do not support BT. So this tethering solution needs to support wifi.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A Naked Emo:
I'm also using wireless teather, only I am feathering it via wifi. It works fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davedontmind:
Success!

I reverted my Hero to the previous ROM I was using, FroydVillain 1.7.2, and now I have Bluetooth tethering working.

Once the devices are paired, on the Transformer screen in the Bluetooth settings, where the Hero shows up, there's a spanner/wrench icon - when I clicked that I got the option to tether to it - this option didn't show up when I was using VillainRom v13.

I may try going back to VillainRom to see if it was something unconnected, such as rebooting the phone, which made the difference.

UPDATE: I went back to VillainRom v13 (Android 2.1) and it still failed to tether with Bluetooth. An Android 2.1 vs Android 2.2 issue, perhaps?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speckledpig:
Can anyone else with a 2.1/eclair and 2.2/froyo device confirm this?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmoney94:
Have the same problem CM7(2.3.3)

WiFi or Bluetooth doesn't work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speckledpig:
I don't think we should see the "problem" as our phones. The issue is that Honeycomb (whether on the Transformer or Xoom or whatever) does not recognize ad hoc wifi connections. If that is addressed, this will be solved for everyone.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadshawki:
Here is what I did:

1. Disabled the WiFi on Transformer.

2. Enable WiFi-Tether on Phone (with Bluetooth and check the discoverable option in the settings before you start tethering).

3. Enable Bluetooth on Transformer and scan for devices. (If you already have it, unpair it first).

4. Pair with your phone.

5. Press the Wrench icon beside the phone (that says paired but not connected) on Transformer.

6. You will find a new option called Tethering. Press it and you're done.

Agagin, that's what I did and it worked for me perfectly. I have CM7 on my phone.

By the way, this exact method didn't work on my wife's Sprint LG Optimus S. Tried everything, but no way...

Hope this helps...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MACscr:
I guess Bluetooth is better than nothing, but supposedly there is a hack to get a Xoom to work with ad-hoc, so must be a way to get our Transformers to work with it as well. Guess we just need to play the waiting game. Cant wait to see what options we have in another month. I have the HTC Hero with CM7 and the Transformer, same issues with no tethering, though since im not a bluetooth fan, I really havent tried it yet. Wifi tether works fine with my ubuntu/windows laptops though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MACscr:
How about USB tethering? Is that an option with our phones and the transformer?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bisto321:
Ad hoc tether is an issue for droid and lots of info can be found on the net and xda.

I have got a hero running villain rom v13 and can run wifi tether with a modified wpa_supplicant file.

See this post

Download the modded wpa_supplicant file, copy to /system/bin, set the permissions as shown and you can then see and tether to your ad hoc hero:) - dont forget to backup the original file(rename by adding .bak to file and copy to your sd card)

Obviously you need root.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
http://db.tt/gqTAPS1

Try the PC36IMG route one more time. It should work. What hboot version are you currently on?

Download that file I attatched, and name it to PC36IMG and put it on the main directory of your sd card. See if you have success with that one. If not, and you want to try the RUU again...then I suggest setting the phone to 'fastboot usb' before running the RUU. Once you set it to fastboot usb (select fastboot from the bootloader), then try the RUU, and it should detect it. (you do need to have HTC Sync installed on your computer to use an RUU)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] touchjon:
I'll try that file u sent and yes it won't detect it in fastboot and I have HTC sync installed

[Droid 2 General] pianoplayer:
My dad's Droid 2's battery life just took a nose dive about a week ago. He is running the rooted stock 2.2 rom, few widgets on the home screen, no task killing, and he hasn't gotten any apps in the last month (I don't think he knows how). Did his battery just die (unusable, not no capactity) or is there anything I can try?
[Droid 2 General] boogerburns:
What I would do, is tell him to get the battery to where the phone wont turn on anymore, its COMPLETELY DEAD. Plug it into the wall until its 100 percent, then drain it down to about 10 percent, then plug it into the wall again. After another complete charge, it should be good again. Its called reconditioning the battery. :) I do it about once a month.
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
I've heard a lot that Lithium-Ion batteries shouldn't be conditioned too often, because they only have so many charge cycles. I'm not expert though. (Don't let this keep you from trying what boogerburns suggested. I could work for you. I'm just stating that Lith-Ion batteries don't like to be drained a lot)

Anyways, the battery could have gotten a bad cell. You can check the battery condition by opening the dialer, and hitting *#*#4636#*#*

This will bring up a menu, and you can choose battery info (or something along those lines) If battery condition is anything but "good" then he'll probably need a bad battery.
[Droid 2 General] pianoplayer:
Well, now it's at a point where the battery is dead in only a few hours, so he's "conditioning" his battery once every few hours.

I did check on the battery condition somewhere, and it was "good". However, I was wondering if there's a way to check uptime/awake time on the D2. My Inc had bad battery once, and I knew it was a lemon since the uptime was far more than awake time. I'm afraid that a rogue update is sucking my dad's battery.

How can I check my uptime and awake time?
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
Use the code I posted earlier, and this time select battery history. Select "partial wake" and see if anything is keeping your phone awake. Also look at network usage and see if anything is using that too much.

Alternately, you can download an app called Spareparts from the market (free) and you can get this information more quickly.

The benefit is that sprint will no longer have to support vvm. This isn't really the game changer you would think.

Very good application, but I live in Brazil and want to use the units in my language.

Is possible to Internationalize?

Because I think another people likes to use in others units.

My units are: Km instead Miles, Liters instead Gallons.

And another think is to create new Gas Station, I fill up in a BR gas station.

Nice app! Have installed it and will try it out over the next few weeks.

One thing I'd love is a service due reminder. I do my own servicing, and it would be handy to be able to specify a time/mileage when an oil change/service is due and have the app remind you...just a suggestion :)
[Android Apps and Games] Fasst2001:
Thank you for trying it out. You can change the units in the settings menu.

Menu -> Settings -> Unit of Measure

You can select km/L and DriverDiary will change the calculation and the text throughout the app to Km and L.

We are also working on localizing the app to other languages.

You can create new gas stations from the menu also.

Menu -> More -> Stations

Here you can add/edit/delete stations.

You can also clear all the stations from the table and start fresh since you are in another country and won't use the US stations that are pre-populated. You can do that from the following menu option and just select to clear the data from the stations table.

Menu -> Data Tools -> Reset Data

No problem, you spoke very well. :)

Thanks for trying out DriverDiary and let me know if you have any other questions or suggestions. We are always wanting to improve the app and rely heavily on user suggestions.

Is 'elapsed time' included as an entry field?

I just saw this on the home page and haven't pulled it down yet, but I have a query:

When I record fill-up information I make sure to get the following bits of data:

Price per Gallon (from the receipt)

Total gallons on this fill up (from the receipt)

Total engine 'on' time spent since last fill up (from the car's trip computer)

Total mileage achieved since last fill up (from the car's trip computer)

Those four pieces of information let me calculate, among other things:

Average Miles per Gallon

Average Engine Time per Gallon

Total Engine Active Time

The time information is useful if you use your car infrequently and lets you more accurately determine when you need to go on for oil and fluid changes.

Is this type of data entry included?
[Android Apps and Games] Fasst2001:
Hi.

Thank you for your interest and question.

At this time DriverDiary does not allow for engine/running time entry. This does seem like a cool feature to be able to track how long your engine runs for and other data based off of that. We will put it in the queue and add it in a future update.

Thank you for the wonderful suggestion!
