I have tried all kind of keyboards, but maybe you didn't know this. SlideIt from the Market, you don't type you just slide along the letter which make typing obsolete. It's like Swype if you ever heard of it. Anyone that use SlideIt or Swype never gone back to any regular keyboard. It's a paid app, but 100% worth it.

Trying to log in to SmugMug I get:

"Timestamp error - perhaps your clock isn't set correctly",

even before entering credentials.

Trying to add my google reader account to Pulse Newsreader I get :

"Could not authenitcate

When I add events to Google Calendar they are always shown with 1 hour diff on my pc and my phone, even though timezone is set to GMT+01 in the settings for both.

I've had to set time & date manually, since the option to get them automatically from the network didn't work.

Talking about the Kingdom Lockscreen by Seo found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1062962

I am not new to flashing mods/roms/anything, but with this are there supposed to be shortcut icons on the lockscreen like in the Kingdom port by virus? I'm using GengerSense which is the correct 2.36.405.8 build. I flash the mod and the lockscreen doesn't look any different than the one virus has built into this ROM.

Thanks in advance for your help!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robyna2010:
Is anyone else having issues with EF 3.4.2 (or other vers) where the keyboard runs a little unstable? By unstable, it seems that certain key presses (or swype) words won't be recognized. Or it incorrectly splits a swype up into multiple gibberish words.

Any ideas? I tried EF 3.5.1 but went back because the complete lack of almost any color made my eyes strain to discern things like lock icons, etc. (I preferred the color on the black/grey of 3.4.x over the black/dark grey only of 3.5.1)

Otherwise it's a great ROM. Love it.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zimmle:
Hey, fellas. As you may or may not be aware, I am in dire straits. Recently I had been browsing the XDA forums for the first time in a long time, and lo and behold there was a magnificence I had thought to never see in our own development forum... a Honeycomb alpha! In my haste I tried to follow every instruction to the tee and discovered that I need the stock bootloader/ROM to do this.

Well, coming from cyanogenmod7 and a first time nvFlasher, I followed the instructions from one thread to flash back to stock 3588(I think it was)? So after fiddling with the drivers for about 5-10 minutes, I start flashing and everything is going great, no errors whatsoever. Then the tablet starts to boot up and what happens? A bootloop at the TapNTap screen. So, I tried to boot into recovery thinking it might be fixable with a factory/data reset...and recovery no longer works, it just reboots back int pthe TnT bootloop. And then I came to the this forum, particularly the Q&A, to ask one question...

Is my G-Tablet well and truly forked?

Sincerely, this guy.

[edit]P.S I am also currently trying a bunch of stuff atm to see if I can fix it myself, but just reply if anything I do is futile and I should consider recycling my new hunk of silicone and plastic.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Load cwm .8 via update.zip and repartition your tab. Then try nvflash again.

"Select the advanced option at the bottom of the ClockworkMod menu, then go to “partition SD card”, for the first option select 2048, and for the second option select 0. This erases data on your tablet. Be prepared. "

Or try loading it by nvflash with instructions from this thread

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
No offense to the OP, but from my observations it seems that NVFlash is more of a breaker than anything. Everybody says to know NVFlash in case you end up with problems...that's fine, people can apparantley use ot to help fix errors that may have happened...

The fact is, most of the "I've bricked my G-Tablet" posts usually contain the line "So I NVflashed..."

I know that the developers use NVFlash for it's ease of use to go between roms, and see what it is that they need to see (I've never used it, so I don't know)

The fact is, the instructions that Mantara posted do not require NVFlash at all. In fact, after flashing 3588, they don't even require CWM.

If I ever softbrick, THEN I'll mess with NVFlash...but until then, it seems that NVFlash might actually cause me to have my first softbrick.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Nvflash is a handy tool to have and yes it can cause errors. Most of the time those errors occur because the partition table on the tablet don't match the partition table for the Rom being flashed. About half the gtabs have different partition tables from what is considered standard. That's why I have been pressing the issue of repartitioning when you first get your gtab and also when you move from 1.1 to 1.2. It helps make sure your tab and the software are on the same page.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ninjoe8:
There are pin number lockscreens and pattern lockscreens. What about a pattern lockscreen that is actually a pin lockscreen? Think about having 9 dots on the screen, each one representing a different number. You can program your pin number and use it to unlock your phone. If your phone is ever lost or stolen, the person will think it's a pattern lockscreen and try different swipe combinations when it's really button presses. Also, since you don't swipe it open, you don't need to worry about oily smudges giving away your pattern.

On the flip side, you can make a screen with 9 numbers on it and the way to unlock is actually a swipe pattern.

[KIN Two Software Development] MacintoshPro:
Network Exploitation

Hello Everyone! This is my first ever post, I just got the Kin TWOm a few days ago and i've been playing around with a few different exploits.

Port Scanning

There are only two open ports on this device:

Port 138: NetBios-DGM

Port 137: Microsoft Windows Mobile netbios-ssn

I will be attempting to run a few different netbios attacks and I'll let you guys know if I gain root access!

Browser Exploits

According to the Wikipedia page on the Kin Series of phones the Browser Agent is: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 6.12; en-US; KIN.Two 1.0)

I will also attempt to run many IE 6,7,8 etc. exploits on this device.

I'LL KEEP YOU GUYS POSTED! Also, If you know any more information about the networking aspect of this device PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS POST!

Thanks. :cool:
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
True, but port hacks use the 139 port.

Also, netbios commands (alas "nbstat") don't work with the kin ip (just retested with router-asigned local ip), but kin answers pings.

Also, dont just believe what wiki says. Test a browser detector page for the browser headers, and the capabilities.

As we have understood the storage upload/download i guess that we can also retest this kind of approach.

Dont want to upset ya, but i tried most of the exploits and the meta xploit things without nothing more than explorer crashes without rooting. Also, we do not know anything (or almost) from the OS, so shellcodes in ARM assembly may not work when using dll addresses.

As othes say that the M versions can open youtube, that's a good point to check too. I will think about it.

Edit, just checked it. Kin uses the "rtsp" protocol, which was unable on the version "kin two" (without M). Unfortunately, my kin doesnt play any vid from the net (maybe because not using 3g and just wifi).
[KIN Two Software Development] Antonpup:
Don't forget to test on 1.00 firmware. Since 1.00 had KIN Studio, which synced up everything. You might be able to get through the KIN Studio Sync.
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
Give me a working kin two then. Also, a CDMA connection tower to at least, get the kin to try to call home.

.... just kidding.
[KIN Two Software Development] Kinuser1:
@john, your kin wont let you watch videos? Well it's not because your using a wifi network because I use a wifi network all the time. If you want youtube to work, then go to the page with the video, close out, go to settings then browser and delete temporary files and cache
[KIN Two Software Development] kintworooter:
i appoligize if this doesnt pertain, but on MS answers fourms i read that the loop on the orginial KIN OS uses a URL to function. Maybe this is exploitable..

somebody should look into this though.
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
So.. i doubt that is up to a common user level to test this but, as i said before, the kin two (twoM version only) uses RTSP.

It's possible to use a custom url for that protocol in the normal address bar. For example:

rtsp://lamewebsite.com/roflvideo/

Of course, if you'r on a lan, you can achive something like:

rtsp://192.168.1.2/roflvideotest/

having a a custom program listening on port 554 (default rtsp) at 192.168.1.2 .

There are some exploits (old, around the web) called "PoC rtsp exploit" which uses customized rtsp packets to execute code and/or crash the receiver program.

Mmmm or probably not crashing either, but showing the "Doh! can't play this".

Of course, as you can see, you can patiently wait for a rtsp random url (not a real rtsp one) to load ("Loading...") to see that's Zune (aka "Music & more") App what loads the video.

So zune is the program to crash and/or exploit, which is not a weak target (not much more info about it or its weaknesses).
[KIN Two Software Development] Marcellus1:
@JohnKussack,

What about this HTTP zune exploit that allows overwriting zune files:

http://securityresponse.symantec.co...sponse/attacksignatures/detail.jsp?asid=22921

(I don't know anything about this exploit other than that it exists)
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
From what i see, it's a (microsoft caused) name mistake. This seems to be for the Zune software at windows, not for the zune software (at Zune devices/kin).

It's like zune of zune devices under zune os to run zune apps in a zune world where everything is named zune.

Yup, i was right. Just tested a local server at home:

Kin RTSP server test on port 554
Waiting for connection from the kin
Kin connected from Address: ('192.168.2.150', 49173)
##########################

DESCRIBE rtsp://192.168.2.134/ RTSP/1.0
CSeq: 1
Accept: application/sdp
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Win32)

##########################

Edit: after several tries, it seems like it just su.... accepts .3gp files, and refuses to get another filetype. Ironically, the Microsoft papers about this, say that rtsp client should send the accepted files with the DESCRIBE request. (Home team failing, anyone?).

I doubt it would just accept the exploit idea (found the code for the exploit and did not work, just normal error) or be a possible hole into the system.
[KIN Two Software Development] Marcellus1:
Have you tried an mp4 or m4a file?
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
Not in the mood. It just refused the others, so i skipped creating or downloading a mp4 to test.

Anyway, every joe can stream in Vlc (windows) and test both. I just tested local issues.
[KIN Two Software Development] Marcellus1:
Would this exploit work or be useful? It is said to cause an exploitable heap corruption using a GIF file:

http://mobile.securiteam.com/exploits/5YP012A8AW.html

Here's another potential exploit that works by sending a malformed RTSP response header that allows shell code to be executed:

http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Security/Trio-of-Exploits-Out-for-Windows-QuickTime-RTSP-Flaw/

Sorry if this subject has been beat to death, but i'm new to the EVO. Actually the fone belongs to a good friend of mine. She was told that if her battery gets so low that the fone shut's down, she'll need to bring it to a store for them to get it restarted. This seams wrong. I know with my Droid1, D2, And DInc1, all will power up as soon as they're plug'd in.

Both my friend and i are rather intelligent, and if a sales rep at Sprint can reboot it, so can we. (after all, her is the only fone i mentioned not rooted)

What i'm looking for is:

1. Does this condition really exhist?

2. If so, how do I! reboot it? :-)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Sometimes the Evo's battery will drop so low that it won't charge - it happens fairly often. You'll need to take the battery to a Sprint store so they can boost the battery.

An external wall charger should charge it too. It isn't a given that the battery won't charge after dying completely, it's just a possibility. I have never had it happen to me, but people start threads about it all the time thinking their phone is bricked.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyWhitfield:
No it isn't. Its the protection circuit in the battery. In an undervolt (as in an overvolt) condition the charging circuit shuts down.

As was mentioned earlier, a wall charger can sometimes push the voltage high enough to "revive" the battery. I believe it depends on the battery.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_battery#Safety_requirements
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Exactly. Or if you're like me, an aggressive under volter, when you let the battery hit 0 and it auto shuts down, once plugged in, the charging like blinks for a about a minute before it stays solid, which is normal.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokifish Marz:
I'm sorry I can't link to the secured site bug list for the Evo however I service 10-20 Evo's a week where the owner has let the battery die to the point where the phone won't power or charge the battery. Pull the battery and drop it in a HTC Hero/Touch Pro 2 or external charger and it will charge but simply will not charge in an Evo. This does not affect all Evo's. I'll say again, this is a known bug.
