I knew the update wasnt going to happen. Never does. I have 4 days to decide if I want to keep my Xoom. I love it, but I paid allot of money and want it fully functioning now, not in 6 months.
[Xoom General] i_am_the_one:
from what i understand, yes the update will break root. However we have some great devs and when this thing finally drops give them a bit of time and they will post a root version for us to flash.
[Xoom General] bigrushdog:
I'm going on the record here and now. Wait for us to take a good look at the patch then let us make something flashable for you. Number 1 rule of being root; NEVER EVER EVER EVER take an OTA! Do not download it if you enjoy being root. If you do download it, against my advice, and lose root forever, please come by #xoom so I can laugh at you. OTA = FALE

Hope that wasn't harsh :rolleyes:

I updated to Flash 10.2.157.51 tonight - AppBrain noticed the update, but Market did not. And this is outside the Moto/Verizon update.
[Xoom General] p-slim:
I'm came out of a meeting and my xoom had updated itself with the updated adobe flash
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
So no update yet then....
[Xoom General] ruinah:
i think if there was an update people would have seen it by now. I got a Flash update in the market but that's all. No OTA from Verizon or Moto. I'm starting to agree with others, I want a finished tablet now not in 6 months when they get around to it. I had an Archos 101 and the first couple of weeks they were slow with updates but then we got updates like every other week for a stretch until they fixed a lot of the major bugs. People did the same thing to those devs though, complaining "WHERE IS MY UPDATE" and nonsense like that. It would just be nice to have a little communication from Verizon or Moto about this stuff. Set an expectation. Say "update will be released in May" and stick to it. Even if it's May 31st, stick to what you say. I sometimes think the devs have so much to tackle they try to do it all at once rather than taking one or two things and knocking them out, updating, and moving down the list.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
If there is that much to fix, why on earth was this os released on a £600 piece of hardware? The apps my company sells cost a couple of quid each, but id lose my job if i released something in this state. The problem is, companies dont give a **** any more as long as they sell based on promises they sre in no way bound to deliver in timely fashion if at all, then when it does ccome time to deliver they use it to push ttheir new hardware (think htc with eclair, froyo, gingerbread).

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom General] zone23:
Can someone explain why you can't just take the OTA update (when available)? I mean its not like its going to lock the bootloader. We don't really now that for sure but I would doubt it. So if the bootloader isn't locked you could still Root. So what that problem? Why would people say never ever whatever if the bootloader isn't locked? Just doesn't make sense to me.
[Xoom General] DroidHam:
You just answered your own question, lol. Go ahead and do it, you can let us all know how it goes
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
From what i read on the moto site today, you cant get otas unless your on stock and locked.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom General] eallan:
edit: nevermind
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Were you unlocked? If so thats good news. My UK 3G came with the latest version so never had an update.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom General] zone23:
Thanks and I understand that but my point was that by excepting the OTA it is not going to make it so you can't root. As long as the bootloader is unlocked you will always be able to root. Its not like on the EVO for example were we needed an exploit to root it. The Xoom is already unlocked from the manufacturer. So their is no reason why a locked/rooted user could not accept the OTA and still root down the road. Users saying don't except it because you wont be able to root is hog wash.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
If you read back through the tthread youll see that iv said exactly that, several times now. My concern is different to yours though. The UK 3G (euro) has no stock image file so we _cannot_ relock, which would prevent us from any ota if it was to block installs based on being / not being locked.

I want moto to hurry up and give us the damn stock file for europes MZ601.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom General] zone23:
Gotcha, ya I wasn't commenting on anything you said. I don't call out users because then they start flaming ya.

I understand exactly what you are saying about the update. I'm sure when the UK update drops someone will make it available for download on rooted Xooms.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Yep, somebody will ... me. As with the stock dumps.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom General] zone23:
How are you gonna get it if your rooted? Just wondering..
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
The download has to come from somewhere right? Ill find it, one way or another. Thats what i do best ;)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timfacchin:
Hi All, I have a question I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with.

I have a Nexus S i9020A running CM 7.0.2 on AT&T. I've noticed something strange lately and can't quite pinpoint the problem.

I'm running a server at my house with a no-ip address to access my tv show downloads. I'm able to access this from the browser (any browser) while connected to wireless (in my network, or out) but only intermittently while on cellular data. When it isn't working it simply keeps trying to connect until it times out. I haven't yet recognized a pattern of when it works vs when it doesn't.

I thought for a bit it might be a DNS issue, but even with the straight IP address it won't load. Funny thing is, I'm still able to SSH into my router using ConnectBot, so I know the address is correct and the phone can see it. Other apps like RDP won't work either while I'm having this issue.

It's not the end of the world, but it sure is annoying. I'd like for it to work whenever I need it. Any ideas?! I'm stumped.

Thanks everybody!

Tim
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
I know nothing about networking, just so you know. It sounds like you know much more. I will offer a guess. With some other phones than the ns, sprint has multimedia proxies set for when you are on their network. Streaming music works on wifi but not cell. Use the msl to get into settings, ##data# is the code for sprint phones, and I forget what they are called but there's two proxy addresses and ports that need to be zeroed out then reboot in order to get streaming to work. This is probably not a solution for you but I thought I'd offer something since nobody else has chimed in yet for suggestions.

RS something or another. The other setting is always right next to the first one and generally at the bottom of the list of settings. It could be in advanced or multimedia. Different places for different phones. It would be wise to write down the default addresses and ports before changing them in case it doesn't work or breaks something. It usually doesn't though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timfacchin:
Hey herb, thanks for the response. I see what you're saying, but I don't think it applies here. I know I made it sound like I was streaming or downloading music through the phone...my mistake. What I actually meant was that I'm accessing a web site running from my house to control my home machine downloading music. It's nothing complicated, I'm just sure I'm explaining it terribly.

But, essentially it's just a regular old web page. It's just very strange that it would work wireless and not over cellular. They do run on funky ports, so that they're blocking or redirecting some stuff is very possible. Annoying...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjlangiii:
I think source was released for the i9000's (not sure) 2.3.3 and if that is the case, I thought we'd start seeing work on 2.3.3 kernals with mods like BLN etc brought to the Vibrant.

Are some required ingredients still missing to do that kind of work, are we still waiting on something to get released before that work starts, or maybe the roms have work required before they'll start on the kernal. I'm not impatiently asking for the work to be done at all, I'm curious if the pieces are available to devs yet so that they can work on it.

Thanks for any input if you know what's going on. If you don't know then, well, go ahead an do what you do best.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
From what I've been hearing from ttabbal, it seems that Samsung changed the way to gpu loads up by using the bootloader.

What this means is that, without a vibrant gb specific bootloader update (not and sbl.bin, but a boot.bin), then we will only have software rendering in everything graphical, and now viewable recovery screen.

And also, it's kernel, not kernal.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjlangiii:
Very informative amigo, thanks. So the rom will have those gpu issues and now a lot of the graphics stuff makes sense. It's funn that using 2.3 is in many? ways a step back in optimization right now instead of the step forward we hoped for like the nexus S #wishfulthinking

I still wonder if we have the capability yet to implement BLN, I enjoy having that and I guess CM7 has kernEls with something comparable so I could always go that route and specially since it sounds like CM7 has been smoothed out a lot.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
I'm actually running CM7 right now and it's pretty smooth. I don't think I'll be going back to 2.2 on this phone unless something huge is offered.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raymond77:
I have been thus far unable to see my pc in the AllShare "Remote Device" pane.

I've been on several sites looking for help but have come up empty handed. Anyone else had this problem?

My set up:

Windows 7

BT Home Hub 3

Galaxy S2

What I've done so far:

Enable Homegroup

In Windows Mdeia Player selected Stream > Automatically Allow Devices To Play My Media

Ensured that all of the Libraries I wish to share are set up correctly (they are as I can stream to my XBox360 no problem)

I open up AllShare, select "Remote Device" it scans and finds nothing.

I'm sure I'm being a complete 'tard, but cannot for the life of me figure out what I've done wrong!

Any ideas, folks?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dextrosan:
From what I have seen so far on youtube I was under the impression that allshare is supposed to work the other way around - send for example a video stream from the phone to a TV or other dlna enabled device. I am not sure if it works from PC to the phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raymond77:
Got it figured, I did everything correctly except wait!

The Home Hub is on the ground floor and I'm on the top, with 5 other devices connected to the router. It was taking a minute or two to discover my pc, then a further minute each level of directory down.

I've rebooted the Home Hub and it has improved markedly, although the types of file that will stream over to the device are somewhat restricted; avi's play fine, mkv and mpeg will not play. Music seems fine. :-)

Tried to send some video to my XBox but was unsuccessful, may not be enough bandwidth I guess...

Depending on your device and what software is already installed on your computer, "UPnPlay" will add universal plug and play to your phone if not present, allowing you to connect to many different UPNP devices over wi-fi. This allows my Droid to connect to Windows Media player to play just about anything (audio/video) in my library. Should have been included in all 2.2 builds in my opinion.

I'm using J. River Media Center with the Android Gizmo app to stream media (it's free on the Market). So I can use my Desire HD as the server or client and send media anywhere in my home over wifi. Solid app but takes a bit of setting up to start.. and the Windows client is not free.

[Android Apps and Games] blastthenoise:
I've tried them all. I gave up my zune since I didn't want to update it or delete music for new stuff. I'd rather have access to my music anywhere.

Audiogalaxy- first thing I tried. It didn't pick up all my music regardless of how many times I redid the library. The audio quality was ok but it was a really basic app and website.

Homepipe- useless since it only streams if the app is active. Hit home and you're sitting in silence.

Subsonic- didn't try it too long. Another basic app.

Jukefly- still using this. Love it. It installed on my htpc no problem and the app is nice outside of having to manually force close the service. Quality is adjustable by network type. It picks up my music, and adds new stuff without having to refresh the library. The Internet app is great foo. If your server is off it will still display your library but stream the audio from youtube. I highly recommend it.

I usually just mount my music network share with cifs manager, then any app can access the files on the share.
[Android Apps and Games] smlgbl:
I see that the thread is relatively old, but maybe some of the people still have their setups working.

Did you do something special to the setup on Windows, because I would like to do more or less the same, but neither my computer sees my phone nor the other way around.

I have another UPNP-server in my Wifi which can be used by my phone as well as my computer, but what I would love to do is tell my computer to play what's on the server using my phone as remote. It worked nicely with mpd and mpDroid, but I would love to have this setup also work with Win7...

Any hints?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashurg:
So these are the steps I did, I HAVE A CUSTOM RECOVERY, AND BOOTLOADER MY BOOTLOADER SAYS SERIAL10. I have done a backup in recovery in the telnet app I type su and I still have no root access. I have installed UniversalAndroot-1.6.2-beta5.apk on the phone but the program crashes. so I guess root is stopping me at this point. I am trying to upgrade the original rom with a new build and a stable 1 any ideas also........ THANKS IN ADVANCED"

The phone looks not to be rooted yet I went step by step.

LOWER BUILD

Preparing to Get Root on your Phone

1. Format your phone's SD card to FAT32 mode:

* Hook your phone up to your computer using a USB cable and then wait for the notification to show up in your title bar of your phone.

* Click the notification, and then click "Mount".

* A new removable disk should show up on your computer. Right click it and select Format, and select FAT32 as the file system type.

2. Download and unzip the RC29. Copy the DREAIMG.nbh file to the SD card. (RC29 for US)

3. Turn the device power off.

4. Hold Camera button, and press Power button to entry boot loader mode. You should see a gray/white screen with instructions to flash your phone with the update on your SD card. If you don't see that, make sure you followed the instructions properly.

5. As per the on-screen instructions, press the Power button to start upgrade procedure. DO NOT DO ANYTHING TO INTERRUPT THIS PROCESS.

6. After it is finished, perform the restart your phone.

Rooting your RC29:

Instructions:

1. Download recovery-RA-dream-v1.5.2.img and copy it to your SD card

2. Download the Hard SPL and copy the zip file to the SD card.

3. All files must be on the root of your SD card.

4. Restart your phone. Wait for your phone to start up fully and show the home screen.

5. After your phone starts up, hit the enter key twice, type "telnetd" and press enter.

6. Download an Android "Telnet" application from the Market and connect to localhost.

7. If you connect successfully, you will have a root prompt "#".

8. Type the following into Telnet (these commands will give you root access easier in the future):

* mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

* cd sdcard

* flash_image recovery RA-dream-v1.7.0.img

* cat recovery.img > /system/RA-dream-v1.7.0.img

1. Power off your phone.

2. Start up in recovery mode by holding home and pressing power.

3. You will now enter recovery mode. You should see an exclamation.

4. If you do not see a menu on screen, press Alt-L to show the menu.

5. Press Alt-S to apply the update from the SD card.

6. After the update is complete, hold Home and press Back to restart.

7. REBOOTS BACK INTO RECOVERY.
