Havng backtrack run on Android is very nice

I am trying to compile Wireshark on this It first asked for bison then yacc.

but it is a little hard to achieve. First I needed repository for ARM Streak.

I was able to add bison and then flex packages using the following repositories:

CODEdeb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/sdk free non-free

deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/tools free non-free

then wireshark required libgtk2.0-dev package. unfortunately the existing libgtk2.0 package is not matching the devel. packge on maemo repository.

any idea on what to do ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] X10_minipro:
Damn...

I wish i bought an x10:-(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mrmrmrmr:
is there a full repository for ARM version of Backtrack ?

I need some libs like libgtk2.0-dev but they are not available on the default repos.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] slimm609:
What package you trying to install?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mrmrmrmr:
I would like to install Wireshark.

But that's not available as a package, so I tried to compile it.

To compile, I need:

-bison

-flex

-libgtk2.0-dev (this one requires some other libs)

Good job =D... I'm currently running BT5 with this method (adapted por Galaxy S) in my Samsung Captivate.

So... I use different image and different scripts... it works fine, but once in the shell, I start VNCSERVER, starts.. but (in linux , seeng it with VNC from android) appears an error screne with the text

So I'm gonna try this one... (it must be compatible, would only change IMG... and thanks for adapting this ;)

Questions:

Is there any way to connect Android-Backtrack via ftp or something? to mount an extra hd for the chrrot? Ftp? (it shares the same external ip i think.. i dunno very much of it.. tryied without succeed xD)

tnk and good job!

This is not a ROM... this is an alternate OS. all features of your ROM will remain as is and will not be effected by this...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mrmrmrmr:
ettercap does not mean anything to me.

why do you suggest ettercap when I was looking for wireshark ?

even if ettercap is an alternative software, it's like saying "we don't have coffee, try our tea"

Go to Menu/Settings/Accounts&Sync and make sure you are on auto sync and gmail is being check to be pushed.
[Xperia Arc General] kitsVA:
I use GMail on my Arc and make sure your Sync is enabled. Depending on how you set up the phone, Sync could have been disabled.

Sync settings is one way to change that. Or, just put the Power Control widget on home screen and you can see if sync is enabled. If not, just enable and delete the widget if you don't need it. You will be all set.
[Xperia Arc General] Akagi Shigeru:
I think you should trun on your AutoSync first...
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
what email app are you using? gmail app or SE email app? gmail app will work if you've selected background and auto sync as everyone else has mentioned.

[Nook Color General] ClarkSt:
I'm using phiremod's latest CM7 - love, love, love it. So easy to install. I got BT working, but with some strange issues:

1) The range is horrible when in portrait mode, but when I flip to landscape, and keep the line of sight between the Nook and the ear-piece that had the BT receiver/transmitter in it, I can have more than arms length range with no issues. (!!!) There must be an issue with the accelerometer!!

2) When I play mp4 clips I've made from my HD camera, they might start OK, but quickly freeze up and go into ultra slo-mo, or whatever. Totally useless. But these clips play fine on regular headphones or without headphones. Why BT has an impact on video playing - using the stock player or any other player - I don't know.

With this phiremod build on the Nook, I'm happy enough to ditch my plkans to get a Samsung or some other "real" tablet. The ONLY thing keeping that alive is this issue.

What I'm wondering, is if there's any way to possibly use my cellphones BT to pair with my headphones, and have the Nook tethered to the phone, such as with GPS tethering and WiFi tethering. Seems somewhat logical to me that you could. I know there is a BT tether on the market, but that's just for data and not for actually using a BT device on your cellphone to control some app on your Nook. I'm thinking like GPS tether does with WiFi tether and Google Nav.

Love to hear your experience here. Thanks!

The difference with this thread, hopefully some of you will join in & post your mods, not just transparent but any kind of themed widget or app,

Although the HD2 section is slowly fading (Yeah i said it :)) no reason we shouldn't have our own thread whilst we're still here!

Here's a few i have modded for the transparent thread, & some ive just done for my own use.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
Hi everyone,

I have a MT4G, 2.2.1, kernel 2.6.32.21-g899d047. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.

I want to root the phone but I am meeting a lot of permission issues.

I have been following this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=TMobile_myTouch_4G:_Full_Update_Guide

At the very beginning, I had problems with su and Superuser.apk.

I have used 'adb devices' to check that my phone is indeed detected.

I put su and Superuser.apk into the same directory as

When I use 'adb push su /sdcard/su', I receive an error saying 'Failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied. Same error for Superuser.apk.

I looked further down the guide and noticed that I would not actually be using the su and Superuser.apk at all and simply copied it over to the SD card itself when I plug the phone into my computer.

I then go into terminal emulator on the phone and I run rage and received the 'Forked #### childs' message, after which I reset term.

I assume I have root shell at this point because I am no longer on $, but instead on #.

At this point, I am able to adb push gfree (the one file gfree) into /data/local. I am able chmod 777 from adb.

When I go into terminal emulator again, I run '/data/local/gfree -f' but it gives me the error message of '/data/local/gfree: permission denied'

What am I doing wrong? I used 'ls -l' inside the directory of /data/local and I have complete rights for gfree (drwxrwxrwx).

----

I have also attempted to use VISIONary+ (R14) but all it does is flash a couple of times then go back to the app page where you choose to temproot. I check my app drawer and Superuser is indeed there, but if I tried to go into terminal, I am met with $. I tried entering 'su' but it would say unknown user root.

----

PLEASE HELP! THANKS!

Use visionary 11. I have rooted 4 MT4G's with that guide and visionary 11...It works.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
before you attempt a new rooting method please pull the battery and let the phone sit for a few moments. Since your s-on it will delete any unwanted files that you may of tried to push to the phone.

and type in

adb kill-server
adb start-server

That will refresh the adb server on your computer.

you'll also need to change the directory to the folder where you stored the gfree files.

I would check the root on boot, reboot, uncheck it, go into terminal and put in the su command and see what happens...your phone will be really laggy when you boot it up, so give it a minute, it is normal.

check everything including the root on boot. Reboot the phone. Then you can go straight into terminal or uncheck it and go into terminal..doesn't matter. Just make sure before you reboot a second time that root on boot is not checked.

Ok, so I check 'Root on Boot', 'Run visionary.sh', 'Set r/w' and click Root now. I reboot. I wait for Root to finish. I run terminal. I enter su. I'm met with 'su: unknown user root'

Any idea what I can do now?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
When ever you try something "new" you need to pull the battery to put everything back to a factory setting.

Rooting ones phone should not be this difficult.

you download and install VISIONary.apk

http://android.modaco.com/content/software/320350/19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/

you make sure ADB is up and running.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928370

you download extract the gfree file to the SDK tools folder

http://www.mediafire.com/?s7afymwe2wb3x60

you change your target folder to the one where you download and extracted the gfree file

you adb push the gfree file to the local folder from the Windows CMD

adb push gfree /data/local

run visionary

you change permissions on the ./gfree file from the Terminal Emulator

cd /data/local
chmod 777 gfree

you run ./gfree.

./gfree -f

you're done. it shouldn't be this complicated.

If you are having this much trouble rooting your phone i'd second guess using a rooted phone. These are the most very basics commands one can use on their phone.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
Well.. despite the very demeaning last statement, I have been trying to go through that same method multiple times. I've rooted the G1, MyTouch3G, Behold 2, Nexus One. I'm no expert but it's not like I'm just blindly clicking buttons either. I just happen to actually run across an issue where the phone just isn't holding onto the temporary root privileges.

I understand that there are plenty of users who have successfully completed their root but there are also plenty of users who can't and have similar troubles with permissions. None of them get the help they're asking for because everyone stops helping them once they hit the permissions roadblock.

I'm just trying to avoid being one of the many in that latter group.

On a side note, thank you for trying to help but that is currently not an option that I am able to take at the moment.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
As far as coming across as being a but, i apologize but it's ture. When it comes to rooting the Magic and the Dream you can do that w/o a computer. Not a big deal.

as one can do with this phone as well.

It doesn't just up and lose root privileges something had to of happened for you lose them.

:rolleyes:

:confused: why must you root you phone?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
I'd love to know why it's not giving me root privileges as well. The phone is stock with the exception of terminal emulator and visionary. Any ideas on what's causing it? USB debugging on, Unknown source app install on. Tried multiple reboots and battery pulls. Also tried to click temproot multiple times. Each time I get a superuser app that stays in app drawer but doesn't go away on reboot. Also doesn't do anything apparently because I don't have root privileges.

Unfortunately I've had the displeasure of googling solutions to this to no avail. Normally I wouldn't even post on forums if I could find the solution without asking (as you can tell from my post count).

Rooting for wifi tether, custom roms, and overclock.

Is there anything that could be keeping su from being allowed into my phone? My original problem was that adb would not allow su and superuser.apk to be transferred into /sdcard. If I could get these into my sdcard (can't just transfer them; the script doesn't seem to detect them this way), theoretically the root script would be able to run completely and give me root privileges and S-OFF.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
Just tried something different and it looks like I am able to push su to /data/local but unable to push it to /sdcard. Weird.

Edit:

Tried to adb push gfree into sdcard and received same permission error. Maybe something to do with my SD card?

Edit2:

Tried a different SD card. Same issue. Any ideas?

Edit3:

Attempted this gude http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/10/ho...s-off-on-the-t-mobile-mytouch-4g-htc-glacier/

No good. Able to run the root.sh (after using rage to get initial root shell). Reboot into HBOOT and was never able to get S-OFF (made 4 attempts).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
just to verify, but are you running the usb connection as charge only or disk drive? by default its set to disk drive on stock...that would not allow pushing to /mnt/sdcard because its unmounted
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
That would explain a lot.. but would I be able to adb with charge only?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
I am really at a loss as to what you are trying to do here. Superuser installs automatically, so I don't know why you are trying to install the apk manually. GFree was already pushed to your phone, that is why you are getting an error when trying to push it again...Delete superuser, turn off your phone, pull the battery, let it sit for 5 minutes and try it again. You are done with ADB since you have gfree pushed already. When you reboot your phone go into visionary, temproot and go into your terminal and type SU...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
I was pushing superuser because I was following Cyanogen's guide (link in OP), which tells me to push the two files (su and superuser.apk, to be used by root script). I was not trying to install the apk manually.

I had no trouble pushing gfree but when I tried to execute gfree, it said permission denied (even though I had root shell).

When I type su into terminal, it gives me 'su: unknown user root' error message. Does not change from $ to #.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
absolutely. i have my MT4Gs always set to charge only....disk drive is only when i need to transfer files through the computer.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
That still doesnt explain the fact of why he is not getting root privileges after temp rooting and going into terminal. You are mixing and matching methods now. Forget the first method you tried and do the gfree method. Delete whatever you put on your phone and follow the guide step by step.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzbilly:
Thank you! This solved my problems!

pirateghost's advice was what was missing; that one missing detail. I was able to root!
