[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
I posted this over on PPCG, but I think it deserves some attention over here - especially if someone helps me figure out a fix :D. So please excuse the copypasta, it's for a good cause!

So hyc has fixed native USB tethering... the newest kernel (as of this post, 1306) has the fix baked in.

However, on my machine @ work (WinXP, SP3) the drivers don't jive. Just keeps telling me that it's unable to install this software.

I naturally did some Googling. This Google page seems to be the answer for XP - however, it still doesn't work. I looked at the INF file, and it seems to have our vendor ID for HTC (0BB4) but I didn't see any product ID's that matched our build (0C01). Note - I got this info from device manager. I tried shoehorning an entry for our device into the INF, but no dice...

So Windows driver gurus - what am I missing? It seems the RNDIS drivers I need should be built-into SP3 (I see some people having issues with anything less than SP3...) and the device shows up in Device Manager as CDC ACM Data and CDC Abstract Control Model (ACM) - I just need to figure out what Windows requires to properly install/communicate with this device. Any help would be appreciated!

PS - I'm pretty sure native USB tethering will now work with all OSes, I only have WinXP to test at work. I'll try Win7 and Linux when I get home... I'm betting Linux will work without much fuss, not sure about 7...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Starfox:
AFAIK the CDC ACM stuff are all modem stuff (PAM). If rndis stuff is exposed it should be under network devices. I don't think that XDAndroid correctly implements the USB tethering because I had both CDC (Communication Device Class) ACM/ACM Data when fiddling around with EasyTether last week.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
XDAndroid's native tethering now works, with the newest kernel... Please read my post more carefully.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] highlandsun:
On Linux lsusb reports 0bb4:0c01 as

0bb4:0c01 High Tech Computer Corp. Dream / ADP1 / G1 Phone

So if you've got the Android drivers already installed on your Winxp system, it should just see it as a G1.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
hyc did indeed figure it out - 20110506_232639 (aka 1313) has the fix!

Thanks highlandsun!

So do I get at least a "sorry for flaming you" as I did correctly point out that the CDC stuff was not the correct USB device?

[General Questions and Answers] danypdanyd:
Hi!

I've just bought a W73 and set the password right away.

I used Sprite Backup to get all my contacts and data from my Asus P750.

At that point I put the backup file on my new W73.

After the restart, at the end of the restore, inserting the password, the W73 could't recognize it.

It means that right now I'm not able to access anymore to my new W73.

Does anybody know how to perform an Hard-Reset on the W73?

Because I cannot find anything on the owner manual.

In my Asus P750 it is very easy, you just need to keep the joystick upward while pressing the power button.

So I think that something like that must be present also for the W73.

The other possible solution would be to flash the ROM. Does anybody know where I can find the ROM of the W73?

Do you know which one is the official CECT website, where I can get assistance and download the ROM?

Thank you very much!

[Nook Color Accessories] Techienana:
I own two NC and am always looking to get the most out of them without spending the big bucks. So, read on for a couple of really CHEAP :o things I have done to save money on accessories:

1. I had to exchange NCs and hated to lose a perfectly good and rather expensive B&N screen protector, so I very carefully removed it and laid it on a piece of aluminum foil and folded the foil to protect it. After I received the replacement NC, I removed the protector from the foil and carefully applied it to the replacement NC. Perfect application other than the very small corner where I lifted it off the previous NC!

2. I've got B&N easel covers but don't like to use them because they add weight and clumsiness (IMO) to the NC. So I purchased the B&N silicon back covers and a $3.00 8-inch Tabletop Easel (Walmart) designed to hold framed pictures and now I have the perfect easel for hands-free reading, portrait or landscape, and with complete access to the softkeys. Just make sure to put it on a non-skid surface.

:D
[Nook Color Accessories] methodz:
why foil? there is an even cheaper solution... just stick the screen protector onto a window.
[Nook Color Accessories] declain:
What happened to the Nook that it had to be replaced?
[Nook Color Accessories] Techienana:
i was just trying to find something that was clean and free of lint, dust and dirt. Unused/unrolled aluminum foil filled the bill. It was also easy to handle.

Nook had to be replaced because it stopped charging. The uSB port stopped working.
[Nook Color Accessories] dennisi01:

Any tips on how to remove CWM from a Dell Streak 7 Wifi only version? Or on how to get it back to stock?

Any help would be awesome!
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] cdzo72:
If you look in the Dell Streak 7 forum there are several threads there on how to recover the Streak 7 back to factory state.... The one I found most useful was the NVFlash method, you pretty much just download the files (does take a while) place a folder with all those files in your C: drive, connect the Streak with certain buttons pushed (can't remember) and that puts it the mode it needs to be in. It will install the drivers and then you just run a .bat file, it takes about 2 minutes to flash all that to the Streak.

It does take a few hours to download everything though, but you will have a stock Streak when you are done
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] rattlehead02:
I tried that and it didn't work. Those files are apparently only for the 4g T-Mobile Streak 7. In fact all the threads I saw about recovering a Streak 7 to stock were about the T-Mobile version.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroy90:
All,

I currently own a T-Mobile Tab I purchased outright (no contract) several months ago. I am very happy with it, but I never did activate data on it because:

1. I am an AT&T voice customer

2. I usually have WiFi available

My office has provided me with a Thunderbolt for business use, so I was thinking about just using my AT&T SIM with a Tab for personal use.

What I need to know is this:

1. Does the voice "hack" actually work on an AT&T Tab? Seriously?

2. Does the T-Mobile Tab actually support a voice "hack" at all?

If so, I would be willing to sell my T-Mobile Tab and buy the AT&T version so I could use data and voice on the Tab with a headset.

Thanks, please advise.

-Rob
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightside_eclipse:
1. Yes; I loaded the Euro ROM onto my AT&T Tab and it was a very fluid process, after which I could make/receive calls and send/receive SMS without issue using my personal SIM card.

2. Yes, and if it's unlocked you can use your AT&T SIM, and voice will work but your data connection will be limited to EDGE/2G as the AT&T and T-Mobile 3G frequencies are incompatible.

I reloaded the stock AT&T ROM onto my Tab because frankly, it felt a bit goofy using the Tab as my phone. Perhaps if it had recognized my Bluetooth headset it would have been a different story, but trying to use the Tab as a phone really seems (to me) to turn it from a small, compact device to an oversized monstrosity. The performance as a phone, however, was perfect.

That's been happening to me lately on any ROM. My phone usually gets back to 3g in the morning. Try disabling/enabling mobile data instead of rebooting.

I've seen some people discuss about Worms and equivalent on Android phones, so I thought I could mention the release of my game, WarMUX, on the market. In addition, as the game is GPL-licensed, maybe this will foster some attention from fellow developpers :)

As I'm a new user, I can't post a link, but a search on the market should quickly bring it up.

It is not obvious to see the current problems due to the sometime strange behavior from users, but here's some of the main complains about it:

Big data size / slow download of said size

Somewhat slow depending on device

Requires at least 480x320 phone

Not fully thought for touchscreen

Unobvious gameplay (from people not checking the integrated help)

Please note that, although network games are possible, there are very few players nowadays, and that you can difficultly compete against players using actual mouse & keyboard.

[Nook Color General] DubiousPig:
So this may be a dumb question but what are the advantages and disadvantages of checking the "lock home in memory" box in the Cyanogen performance settings?
[Nook Color General] BitingChaos:
I'm not an Android expert, but from my understanding of it ...

Personally, I'd keep Home locked in memory on the Nook.

On older devices with low memory, you'd want every bit of it free for running applications.

Let's say you had 24 MB of free and usable memory, and your Home was taking up 6 MB. If your system claimed that, that is like getting a quick 25% boost to memory.

However, hitting the Home button would cause the Desktop to take longer to display, as it now had to fight to get some memory back just to load back up.

Keeping Home locked in memory means that it will not give up what it has allocated, so that you can always quickly switch back to it. Since the Nook has 512MB of RAM, I've usually seen something like 180-380 MB free on mine at all times, so I don't worry about releasing the tiny chunk Home claims.

Someone, *please* correct me if I am wrong.
[Nook Color General] DubiousPig:
Thanks for the reply, this is pretty much what I assumed. If this is the case, and it sounds logical, then I'm bit confused as to why it isn't automatically checked in CM7 anyway.
[Nook Color General] BitingChaos:
Default options are weird.

For my old G1, not locking it in memory makes sense. For the newer Nook, locking it in memory would be better.

Other defaults of CM7 include the Camera and Phone app on the Desktop for the Nook. Really?
[Nook Color General] poofyhairguy:
Those apps are tied to strange but important parts of the OS, so they can't be easily removed.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jappetta99:
I'm sorry but I have googled and searched here trying to get a clear answer, but I think it comes down to my lack of understanding.

What is the difference between the bootloader being locked vs unlocked and what does that mean for the development? I currently have the Acer Iconia and love it, but if there will be more/better development on the transformer I may switch.

I also want to try and figure this out as I have a Droid X and use the bootstrapper to load ROMS but again I do not have the understanding I think I need for this subject matter.

Thanks all for your work and contributions. XDA has taught me alot and I am trying to further my understanding so please forgive me if this is the wrong forum to ask this in.

Well i downloaded the latest update from asus and applied it to my tablet. I now can't use CWM on my SD, i could before.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KitsuneKnight:
There's three types out there right now:

Unlocked bootloader: You can flash whatever you want

Locked bootloader: It verifies a signature before flashing. Usually the signature check isn't all that hard to really defeat (the Thunderbolt's was defeated in somewhere around a day, IIRC).

The Droid X bootloader, on the other hand, is Encrypted, in addition to being Locked. This is the reason that you have to bootstrap custom roms, and can't just install them directly. Motorola is the only one that's using an Encrypted Bootloader, AFAIK.

The error message did not say anything about signature verification failed. The problem is fastboot cannot find the file you specify in the command line.

SOLUTION: you have to go into the folder that you saved the "recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.img" (for example, if you saved the file in C:\android\) using the following commands:

c:
cd android
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.img

No - Fastboot can't find the file.

c:\Downloads>fastboot flash recovery fakefile.img

This takes place before checking if your device is connected, if you are unlocked to write the recovery, etc.

You're sure the cwd of the cmd prompt is the directory you downloaded the file to? Alternatively provide the full path to the recovery image.

Edit: Rereading your post above you have the recovery file in the directory as the tools. This won't resolve via the path. You either need to cd into that dir or provide the full path. Fastboot takes a local img file as the argument (local to your cwd unless you specify the full path).
