[G Tablet General] redhonker:
Appreciate your advice on not mixing kernel and modules. I could not tell which exact build CM 7 uses so I had to pick one. When I get more experienced with Android, I may start changing kernels.

Doesn't CIFS uses rw mount by default? If not, what's the option? rw? I've tried that as well.

If I change the system file to mount it by default, I'd have to save the password on the command line, right? Will wireless be ready at that time? And if server or wireless is not ready at the time, I'd need to manually remount with some tool, do I?

Thanks!
[G Tablet General] Oozura:
Cm7 includes pershoots kernel. The gb one.
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
not to confuse issue with whatop is having but I wonder if anyone has run into a problem with cifs in which it doesn't include all of the folders from your windows shares.
[G Tablet General] Oozura:
OP,

See modified instructions from your first post. This should get you up and running.

1. Settings -> about tablet to get kernel version: 2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod root@pershoot-ubuntu #1

2. Go to http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/ and find the kernel for gTab. There are several one, I just picked one with Gingerbread and downloaded

lib-2632.39_gb.tar.gz

Unpack on put cifs.ko under /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod/

From ADB or terminal emulator (enable SU and do not need the adb part)

adb remount

adb shell chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod/MODULE.ko

adb shell insmod /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod/MODULE.ko

3. Install CIFS Manger

4. Run CIFS Manager, add the share

I wanted to help you with this earlier but been sidetracked. I hope this helps
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
Yes, by default it should be mounted read-write. If, for some reason, it gets mounted read-only, you can use the remount command I gave earlier to make the mount read-write again.

But, there could be other reasons for you not being able to write to the share directory. Permission and UID/GID mismatches could be one reason. Try adding the "noperm" flag to tell Linux not to check permissions locally ie. do the permission checking only on Windows:

/system/xbin/mount -t cifs //SERVER-IP-ADDRESS/SHARENAME /some/path -o rw,noperm,domain=DOMAIN,username=USER.NAME,password=PASSWORD

Which system file? If you mean /etc/fstab, then that file does not exist on Android.

CIFS Manager (I haven't used it) should have an option to let you store the password securely. On normal Unix systems, the mount command accepts a "credentials=/some/file.txt" option which can be used in place of the "domain=XXX,username=YYY" options when mounting. Unfortunately, the mount command on the gTablet does not understand that option--I checked: you have to do it the old-fashioned way. You can't even skip the "password=" bit. On Unix, if you skip that, the mount command will prompt you for the password.

The solution, if you don't use CIFS Manager, is to place all the commands--the insmod and the mount--into a shell-script and give it 700 permissions. That way only the owner can see what's inside it and you can run the script after the wireless has come up.
[G Tablet General] redhonker:
noperm does the trick. Will update first post.
[G Tablet General] h3llphyre:
Could you explain the exact process for doing this from a terminal emulator. My main hold up is the /system directory being read only, so I can't copy the module (CIFS.KO in this case) to that directory.
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
You don't need to put cifs.ko into /system. If CIFS Manager asks for the path to a cifs.ko file, then you can put the file anywhere you want.
[G Tablet General] redhonker:
I have a new problem. There seems to be a limit on the file size. I have a 3 GB file shows up as 28 KB. Does anyone have success with large file? Thanks
[G Tablet General] savage0:
I tried your instruction... there are two problems...(my rom is also cm7.0.3)

1. I can't put the cifs.ko into /system/lib/modules~ it seems that it is forbid to copy some files into system folder...

2. so I tried to put the cifs.ko in the /mnt/cifs.ko, and made the related setting in cifs manager(path to cifs.ko), then i mounted, but it showed that:"no route to host"

but i am sure that my ip and password is correct... so is there anyone know how to solve this problem?
[G Tablet General] redhonker:
I used Root Explorer. I am sure there are other means to put it under /system. I am not sure if that's necessary
[G Tablet General] h3llphyre:
I literally just went through this today. Download Terminal Emulator (free on the market).

PS: Don't type the '#' sign below.

#su

#/system/xbin/mount -w -o remount /system

#cp /SDCARD/cifs.ko /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/

#/system/xbin/mount -r -o remount /system

Then, just add the path /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/ into CIFS Manager. Should be all set.
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
File size limits depend on the underlying filesystem.

I tried the following command on an external NTFS formatted USB HDD connected to a Linux desktop mounted on the gTablet at /mnt/usbdisk via CIFS, and had no problems.

# ls -l /mnt/usbdisk/rvp/bak/hda3.img
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 8011422720 Apr 17 2010 /mnt/usbdisk/rvp/bak/hda3.img
# dd if=/mnt/usbdisk/rvp/bak/hda3.img of=/dev/null bs=1M skip=7500
140+1 records in
140+1 records out
147102720 bytes (140.3MB) copied, 150.135761 seconds, 956.8KB/s

The command skips the initial 7.5 GB of a 8,011,422,720 byte file and reads the rest (~140 MB).
[G Tablet General] archmcd:
I had the same issue, but I found the guide on abettergeek which helped me fix it. Turns out the problem is that the mount point created by Cifs Manager doesn't have execute permissions.

I don't have enough seniority to post the link, but it's a recent post on abettergeek.com. If someone with enough seniority wants to paste it, some others may find it extremely helpful.

[G Tablet General] Edwrib:
Pls, where I can put "rw,noperm" in cifs manager? I tried in module path as:

I dont know what to do. I cant get on youtube, or even download an app from market without getting an info window that tells me something is wrong with my connection.

i have android version 2.3.3

[G2 and Desire Z General] xcaliburpcs:
its going to be your radio then, mine had the same issue, until i updated the radio, my speeds were so slow, then hspa+ finally kicked in and now i get about 2Mbps to 6Mbps
[G2 and Desire Z General] daganb:
I have simplemobile as well, purchased it for work (to tether in a pinch) and while I am not exactly "happy" with the service + phone, I guess its passable.

I get HSPA as well, using Ultimate Droid + the .16 radio (I've tried every single one, this is the best) I get 2-6mbps download with this combo and simplemobile. My biggest issue is the horrible reception and the data dropouts for no reason. I take public transportation and trains for my job and can never hold a tether for longer then 5-10 mins if I am moving. Also for some reason I am unable to use voice and data at the same time, as well as the annoying issue of hanging up a voice call and having what seems like the radio "rebooting" ie: going to zero bars, dropping the data connection and 5 seconds later getting a radio lock again.

I have finally gotten good APN settings to enable me to use hspa as well as MMS (finally after 3 months i have mms). I would be happy to share if needed.
[G2 and Desire Z General] animeal:
that be awesome! :)

btw, how do i get an .16 radio, i looked around a bit and couldnt find what i was looking for.

anyways, i get only 40kbs on 4 bar edge network. i heard it should be more.

my settings are 216.155.165.50 and 8080

what do u guys think?

ill be willing to donate $10 (to whomever or developer, if its allowed) if i can get this thing fixed. ive been working on it for like 3 days now with no success
[G2 and Desire Z General] xcaliburpcs:

[Vibrant General] peaceful1:
Hello,

Do you know where I can get a PHONE file for Vibrant T959 to use with ODIN?? Please help...

A while back, in the process of installing a 2.3.3 ROM on my Vibrant T959, I used a Galaxy 9000 PHONE file (and PIT and PDA) via ODIN. Since then, at boot, splash says i9000 then 2nd splansh says Vibrant.

Phone works ok, but there are times when it thinks phone is an i9000 not an Vibrant - like using ROM Manager and downloading recovery.

I have looked everywhere but not found a stock PHONE file for Vibrant (only found 512 PIT and PDA files).

Please email or point me to one, if you have or know where.

Much appreciated

Hi seedofchaos,

I have flashed back to stock many a time, to install ROMS, etc. but this has not restored the Vibrant initial splashscreen. This first splash only changed after I used a GT i9000 PHONE file with ODIN.

If you can direct me to a

file to use with ODIN, I would appreciate it.

I have read about the aoi toolbox but it is more than I was looking for at moment.

I just need the PHONE file for the Vibrant T959, please

[Vibrant General] ferhanmm:
Flashing the Samsung Vibrant to stock firmware does not require a PHONE file to be selected in Odin.

You might have heard that for some other phone, but for this phone all that is required is a .tar file and a .pit file which has already been linked to.

Edit: Seems like you might just have to flash a vibrant kernel. Look into flashing that.
[Vibrant General] peaceful1:
No sir, I am not trying to flash back to stock. I am not trying to flash to stock. I know how to do that with TAR and PIT, but that is not what I am trying to do.

I need the PHONE file to restore the initial boot splash and to get the phone to stop identifying as a GT i9000 in some apps, which it does. This behavior started when I used a GT i9000 PHONE file in ODIN.

Sorry for the confusion this is causing, but if anyone has it, I need a PHONE file for Vibrant T959.

thanks
[Vibrant General] DontJoinTheDarkSide:
We understand what you are trying to do. You want to get the old boot splash back the only way to do that is to flash a stock rom. Jfd will do the trick. Otherwise you'll need to have a custom kernel like overstock flashed through clockworkmod.

[Vibrant General] cpittman:
It sounds to me like you flashed the i900 sbl and boot.bin in other words your phone has the i900 boot loader. You'll need to find the files to flash the t959 boot loader however be VERY VERY careful doing so as you have about a 50/50 chance of hard bricking your phone when doing so. The files aren't available on xda for that reason. You're only shot is finding a dev who has said files and is willing to help you out. Good luck!

How do you "allow the installation of nonmarket apps"?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] norcal530:
you have to root your phone and flash a 2.2 ROM. thats one way. the other way, is to use the newest version of Super One Click Root and root your phone, then flash the "allow non-market apps" option. both can be done using the newest Super One Click program. And some advice for you since i'm guessing you're new here, is you shouldn't post something like this in the themes and apps section. this is more of a Q&A topic. Theres prob quite a few threads that can answer your question there. i'm just letting you know before you get flamed for doing something like this again

Just click that.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] raph23:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] norcal530:
You simply need to open the same super one click program you used to root your phone.make sure you have USB DEBUGGING ON.then just plug your phone into your computer cord,and then click on the "allow non-market apps" icon.I believe it is the third box from the left.its right next to the "shell root" box.once you click the "allow non-market apps" box, you should be good to go

Dont know how to get the original kernel back, but I had Leedroid kernel, then when i flashed the new RCMix rom(Kingdom v0.1), the kernel no longer said Leedroid, it reverted to something that resembled stock (obviously it wont be the Vodafone stock, but it might look 'stock enough').

So you could try doing full wipe & flashing that rom & then restoring your original rom & hope the kernel is changed.

there is probably an easier way
