EE4 update

Well, the EE4 update has helped with 3G stability but I still have had a few hiccups since I updated. Still randomly dropping the data connection, albeit less frequently. Ugh.

This is on a non-rooted Charge.

Edit: I don't live in a 4G area, so I can't report on the 3G/4G switch or 4G stability.

[Atrix 4G General] playin4sheezy:
So I was bored today and started digging around and happen to find something that is particularly disturbing IMO. Most settings for apps and system are stored in databases of course. Not going to name which particular files contain this but the passwords for pretty much all my accounts and various things are stored in plain text. With that said one could easily create script to drop on someone phone and pull all of their user names and passwords. This is a huge security flaw that could expose everyone's account information easily. Does anyone know if there is way we can get this information encrypted?
[Atrix 4G General] BravoMotorola:
1) If you're out and about set a password

2) With the password set, turn off usb debuging
[Atrix 4G General] playin4sheezy:
I'm confused. Please elaborate
[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
Bravo: i think what he's trying to say is that if someone somehow made an app that also for some strange reason had access to that file... anyone installing that app would basically be voluntarily handing out their account details.
[Atrix 4G General] :
Wouldnt this be more of a MotoBlur issue? Since MotoBlur is the one that handles all that Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Picasa, Photobucket, Email Accounts. I mean it is build into the phones custom UI.
[Atrix 4G General] playin4sheezy:
Ok I must confirmed that also aosp email app does the same thing. I froze blur email and loaded gingerbread email and out shows the login info for my gmail and work exchange account
[Atrix 4G General] zen kun:
well to be honest you need root to get this files, and yes use sqlite in market version and you can see ALL apps and password , you can even edit it so maybe i will worry when you can have access to this without root. this isnt new, even you can check wpa_suplicant and check wifi password if you dont remember :p
[Desire HD Android Development] Ninja UK:
I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on this.

I have spent all afternoon rooting my DHD. I have done everything correctly as far as I know eng s-off and s-off perm root etc and everything is looking perfect.

I have downloaded the CoreDroid V6.2 rom and am confused with radios.

I know I have radio version 26.03.02.26_M but am unsure what to do at this point. I mean I know I could just flash the rom via the method but am worried about not having the correct radio etc.

Help appreciated as I don't want to brick this when I am so close :)
[Desire HD Android Development] TheLordVimes:
The radio dosn't really matter, however if you want you could cheak out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877295&highlight=radio. Also this should be posted in the questions section and not the developers.

*And it's very hard to brick the dhd by flashing a new radio, as far as i recall it has some sort of a backup radio, so no worries.

Hi, i have just watched a GSG 2 video, and the guy showing the phone demonstrated expanding a widget on the screen, i have a weather widget on an otherwise blank screen but i cannot expand it, anyone know how to do it.
[Galaxy S II General] Foxdraed:
Keep pressing the widget until you will feel a vibration under your finger and instead of moving it around, just hold onto it for 2 - 5 seconds and then pull up your finger. The widget will fall back on your homescreen and you will get an interface with yellow squares which show by how much the widget can be enlarged.

It is important to remember that not all widgets can be resized.

[G2 and Desire Z General] ilostchild:
Well it is now official that gingerbread has been leak/released for our G2 and I'm sure lot of us who had soft bricks are happy to know we can unbrick it and now to our next problem rooting it

I have tried 2 ways so far first is the wiki way with psneutur and gfree, and other is temp root with visionary

My results for both came negative,

Gfree/ psneutur gave me permission denied after I pushed it in

Visionary jus gave me black screen

And gingerbreak requirs s-off

So let's gather info and or figure out a way to root new gingerbread if any tried downgrade method let all us know with steps what you did

Here is the info for new gingerbread

Ship s-on

Hboot 0.82.0008

Radio 26.08.04.30M3

eMMC-boot

Apr 13 2011,

So hope we can find solution to root and we can get custom roms back on it

Let's wait for an update from paul on visionary
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
I dont know about that...once you put out something that bricks a ton of phones, i tend not to trust it ever again...
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Well... I've never used any method but Unforgivens Method. Well hopefully we find a new way to root it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
Visionary (as evidence by the sticky at the top of the dev phone saying DONT USE VISIONARY TO PERM ROOT) has bricked many a phones that have only now been able to be fixed. I think its just a trust issue and comes to down to each individual and what they personally think and believe :) I personally would never use visionary again no matter how many times its updated or "fixed". The trust has been broken.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
Idk why there's hate on visionary... I rooted my phone the second day the process was released and I've never had an issue since...? And I've rooted 2 other g2s well after and still never had any issues... just followed instructions. I understand it can brick your phone, but then again... was it really visionary that bricked it? Or was it an user error placing blame?? Just saying....
[G2 and Desire Z General] itsnoahyo:
yeah i rooted my g2 using the visionary method and have had no issues. and it seems like a lot of the bricking has occurred since i rooted, so i dont get it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ilostchild:
i did visionary root with success, but put yourself in the other end of ppls shoes who did use visinary an you get a brick and no way out of it, other than have gfree with jus pushing, and everythign else is done for you, i would go that route than a higher chance of bricking,

But this thread is not bout bricking this is about how to obtain root on the new stock rom that is out
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ucejuice:
Yes please! if anyone finds out how to root the G2 with stock Gingerbread could you please post! thanks in advance!
[G2 and Desire Z General] petarpLab:
user error? lol in a one-click root... maybe they were pressing the top right corner of the button and that's their error lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] Thasgolas:
I don't know, either, but there has to be some reasonable explanation, doesn't there? After all, many people (myself included) had no trouble rooting with Visionary. OTOH, this is my second G2 - the first went back under warranty. With the first one, Visionary was unsuccessful at perm-rooting. This one, worked on the first try. Odd? Computers are NOT supposed to behave randomly - so why the difference?
[G2 and Desire Z General] petarpLab:
when someone comes up with the visionary source, there are people that can understand it. until then it's a black box.
[G2 and Desire Z General] fallen368:
+1

I'm in the same boat. I just got a brand new G2 off craigslist, and was very happy to see that it had gingerbread. But to my extreme dissappointment, I cannot root it or downgrade it to gain root. Below are the things I have tried and didnt work.

Visionary

Gingerbreak (v1,0, 1.1, 1.2)

Rage

Super One-click

Z4Root

Androot

Gold card, for downgrading, also tried Gold card with above root methods.

I have also tried taking the stock Froyo PC10IMG and modified the info txt to read it as a newer version, and it loaded it, checked it, then just went back to the bootloader screen like there was no image there at all. Last night I was thinking that if I pulled the internal battery (the little tiny one) then it would lose its info, allowing me to load any PC10IMG I wanted. NOPE. Rom and all its info and settings are still intact. Weird, cuz I thought that's what that little battery was for. So, I'm out of options. I love the rom, it's fast as hell and the battery life is far better than when I had my last G2. I just wanna overclock, add some sounds without using Zedge or something (want internal mods that arent dependant on memory using apps), and do some theming. Oh, and removing that horrible pink bloat >:]

I just know that our awesome Devs will come up with something.

XDA ROCKS!!!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] nounousomes:
Waiting?!

Any updates regarding the root?

I tried everything, and nothing works.

I even tried to resend it to the repair center to get froyo, they returned it back saying that they could no longer Downgrade it!
[G2 and Desire Z General] ilostchild:
well this is my argument, you can call them and ask them for one that is froyo

complain to them that you have netflix and paying for a service to use on your phone reason why you got it, and since "THEY" updated and made it unsuably they are obligated to give you one that can use netflix or a replacement that can use it as they have done something that was not confirmed with you if you sent it for simple repair, you did not get your phone back to how it was you got something different...

start this fight you will probably end up with a mytouch 4g
[G2 and Desire Z General] guhl99:
Hi!

The config options that you would have to change are written to the emmc on partition17 (main version) or partition7 (S-OFF, SuperCID, SIM-Lock) so that will not change if you pull any kind of battery.

The only chance to root this rom is that we find a new temp-root method and then do the usual things (misc_version, goldcard, downgrade, gfree, ...)

I do not expect that someone publishes a new temp-root before either T-Mobile/HTC rolled out the OTA or a different device running 2.3.4 really needs it.

Have fun - Guhl

Hi,

I want my transformer to do everything my old netbook did and prove that is indeed possible. As you all probably know this does take some workarounds.

My mother always told me, if you're I doubt then someone else probably also is.

There for Ill post this up and my reason why.

One thing I cannot get working on Android is java sites like my online banking system. I'm sure with time it'll be possible but for now its not, so I thought of a work around which works for me with my setup.

I have a HTPC in my living room running Windows 7, it runs our TV, movies, recordings and such. I set up a user on this server which I use for when I vnc into to run stuff I can't on the Transformer, however it was annoying that the media center would have to shut down in order for me to do my vnc stuff, so I started looking around the net for a solution.

Hence this post. There is a way to get multiple users onto windows 7 simultaneously :-)

http://www.ehow.com/how_6820442_allow-multiple-remote-desktop-sessions.html

The above article explains exactly what you need to do, easy easy...

Now I can view TV while getting banking done through a rdp connection.

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone here may have done a computer science degree and was able to help me answer a couple of questions:

1. Does it matter which university I go to? ( I'm thinking UCL, would that mean I would get paid more than going to like Nottingham?)

2. How is the job market?

3. Whats the best job that I can train to do to give me the highest salary?

4. Can anyone get me some work experience for a couple days or a week, as I would really like to see If I could handle it and if I like it?

Thanks

PS: I love computers and fascinated about developing programs like software engineering, but I have other interests to within the industry and open to any go jobs which offer a good salary of about 50k year.
[Off-topic] sohanlon07:
Some universities have a better reputation than others but in my experience all the course will teach the same fundamentals. You'll have module choices etc so you can choose a specific direction in final year. Most graduates will go into a graduate development job. The direction you take from there will depends on the company you chose. I did Electronic and Software Engineering and it was mostly java. When I graduated and started work, I was doing a lot of web work, JavaScript etc. Now I'm shifting to a java development role.

I can only speak for Northern Ireland, but the job market is pretty good here for experienced developers.

Salary wise, most grad jobs will be similar. You won't go in to a "best salary" job right away, it will be dependant on the experience you gain. Its hard to pick a best area. Mobile development is pretty big now and a lot of web app development for stuff in the cloud. Pretty much everything I do is for web applications or web services.

Oh and good luck on getting a job after the degree is completed on 50k a year. You have virtually nil chance of that in the UK.

Basically trying to make your tab a South Paw?

Maybe modify the tabs build.prop's rotation %, but modding the build.prop can be dangerous.

I think it is set at default 90%

In nova2 if you change the orrientation in the game it goes from 90% to 240%

Research it. This is prob the setting your tab will run off now. Most likely affect everything that has that default orrientation only view.

Allways back up original and move back up to secure location.

Your gonna need to be rooted.

Get a root explorer file manager app on the market.

Only mod one thing at a time, in case something goes wrong. I believe all changes need restart to take effect.

I have not attempted to do this particular build.prop mod, so. . .let me know.

Research it. Did I say that allready? Lol, oh and back up!
