[Hero CDMA General] drew454u:
Ok. My buddy at work has a hero running 2.1

I rooted his phone using the z4 root, installed recovery using rom manager.

main reason for wanting to root was to be able to use wireless tether, so I installed it but can't get it to work at all.

app starts fine but when you hit the button to start tethering it says its starting but it won't send or receive any info, and I can't detect it sending out any kind of wireless signal.

Thought busybox might be the issue so I installed the newest version from the market. 1.18.somethingsomething.

Didn't work, still nothing.

googled the issue I'm having and can't find a fix. I'm using the newest version from the market, even tried a old version 1.61 I believe.

I'm out of ideas. Can anyone help?

I'm using the one from the second post of the following thread, and it works perfect tethering to my Nook.

Just occurred to me......the Hero only broadcasts Ad Hoc not Infrastructure if my recollection is correct. That could be your problem too.
[Hero CDMA General] ngholson:
when you started the app did you get a window asking for superuser permissions? if not then you are not rooted. I know that some of the carriers recently pushed an OTA update that blocked z4root's rooting method.
[Hero CDMA General] drew454u:
awesome i will try that one tomorrow. thanks.
[Hero CDMA General] drew454u:
im not gonna lie i have no idea what that means....... but i know other people with heroes are tethering.
[Hero CDMA General] drew454u:
yes, thanks for asking, i should have stated that in my original post. I apologize. currently i have adfree, root explorer, and titanium all running with no issues on his hero.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
if your on a sense 2.1 rom you need to use wireless tether v1.6 from google code this is due to the kernal in sense 2.1 roms if your on 2.2 or above v2.7 should work on almost all computer os's except ubuntu 11.0.4 due to a kernal issue. but usb tether works fine on ubuntu. also u can try wireless tether pre 3.0.14 from google code witch will work on almost all roms except for kifno sense roms and liquid sense roms. just please make sure if your on a 2.1 sense rom be sure to go to settings settup mode and select hero cdma then go down to lan settings and enable routing fix for hero.

if your wanting to connect to a ps3 i have a guide buried somewere in general that tells you how to set up a brdge

Stupid question, but do you have your 3g on?

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Ginger-on-Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA General] hockeyfamily737:
LOL....The Ad Hoc connection should still be present, just can't connect to the internet. I know this because I am a dope and always start my tether without starting my 3g and realize what I did when I can't open up a webpage. It's more then likely what Bierce was saying with the different Wireless Tether versions between 2.1 & 2.2 or a setting / script on the receiving device. With my Nook running CM7, by default it can connect to Ad Hoc, but running Honey Comb I have to change out the wifi supplicant to switch from infrastructure to Ad Hoc, and with my old iPaq I had to go into wireless / settings and enable Ad Hoc in the list of supported network types.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
Hi

I used to have root on my HTC Magic, but I noticed that since I used System App Remover, my phone no longer has root and I experience random reboots and other times the phone just switches off. That's my fault - I should have made a backup, but for some reason I didn't at the time. Anyway. I've tried re-rooting; I've tried removing root and then re-rooting but nothing seems to work. I use Terminal Emulator to see if I have root. According to it, I don't have. However, when I use Universal Androot or some other app, it says I already have root, however, this is not the case, because when I reboot into recovery, nothing works. Whichever option I choose, the phone just reboots normally. Please help? I want to install a new Android 2.3.3 ROM :-/

Thanks in advance
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] blaster44:
Give some info about your device(from fastboot- back+power+).

What ROM you using now?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
hboot - 1.76.0009

cpld - 12

radio - 6.35.08.29

Running FuzeBox Froyo 2.2. There's a thread of it around here, but that ROM's development was stopped a long time ago.

It happens when I reboot into recovery (haven't tried it in a while). Can't remember the combo but I can boot into Fastboot just fine. Issue comes in when I have to boot into recovery. I can see the options but when I click on them, the phone just reboots and loads the OS.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
No one? :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] karym1969:
Security

Most importantly in Fastboot, do you have S-ON or S-OFF?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
It's always been S-ON, even when I had root...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] karym1969:
SPL S-ON

You will not be able to flash anything as long as you have Security-ON (perfected SPL).

Thus, you need to create a goldcard with S-OFF (Engineered SPL). Check this link:

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
Let me ask the OP something real quick...

Why is it that you posted your QUESTION in the DEVELOPMENT section instead of the QUESTIONS & ANSWERS (General Q&A) section?

Rhetorical.

I'll move your QUESTION to the GENERAL Q&A section but the next thread that you create in the DEVELOPMENT section without any actual DEVELOPMENT will result in an immediate removal of your thread without warning!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
Not true. I flashed my current custom ROM and I had S-ON.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
You flashed your current custom rom... in recovery! Not fastboot. No custom roms are flashed via fastboot. Which is why s-off isn't needed usually.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
Yeah, I know.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] karym1969:
Flashing

Flashing a rom is totally different than flashing a radio,spl, recovery from fastboot.

Having SPL S-ON will give you an error of "remote Fastboot not allowed".

Good Luck.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
I know, but I can't flash anything due to some other error I get when I enter fastboot. It doesn't say fastboot not allowed, but it game some other message that indicated I don't have permission to do so. Even if I were to flash a new radio/SPL, that won't allow me to flash a custom ROM, since the custom recovery fails.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DarkNiz:
Can someone please help me? I've tried everything. Nothing seems to work. I've tried various recoveries and none of them work. I can't flash anything, nor do any restores :(

Is there any one got the Arabic ROM for sensation?

I have sensation middle east version but without Arabic. So, if I can get a link to the Arabic ROM I can flash it with no problems.

there is currently no Arabic ROM.

but as soon as HTC open the bootloader i will make one :):D:D
[HTC Sensation] kdahri:
My view is that sense My device is official MEA version I can flash official Arabic Rom.

My Device is s-on.

Can you please tell me from where your friend purchased his device.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
There is no Arabic ROM yet, but when flashing custom ROM on Sensation would become possible then you can flash Arabic patch from my thread. It should work on any custom ROM based on the same RUU :)

i'll be getting mine in an hour hurray :)

[HTC Sensation] omar302:
There is still no official Arabic ROM from HTC. Once it is ready you will receive it through FOTA if you your device was originaly a ME version.

HTC always does this.
[HTC Sensation] kled54:
Htc mea has posted on their Facebook page that sensation will be released with full Arabic support.

It should be clearly visible on the box that it's Arabic enabled.

It Will be released on Thursday in stores accross uae, also according to their Facebook page.

Here in Lebanon the official reseller said it should be available soon, I am just waiting for their SMS notification when it arrives.
[HTC Sensation] thermax04:
I Bought one from the USA it is unlocked Tmobile 4G version, but i did not receive it yet, so how to know if it is s-off or on?

some people said that Arabic rom is already on line, can I use it to update the 4G version?
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
Currently you can not install Arabic on any other Sensation except those sold for the Middle East (with Arabic on the outside of the retail box).

Also, the Arabic ROM has been leaked and is available here.

I have S-OFF.. how can I tell the rom version? I got it from a conference at work... Yes, I work for Tmo...
[HTC Sensation] thermax04:
Thank You for your reply

After some readings I understood that I must wail till the bootloader is unlocked, but some said the HTC facebook page said that it will be these days and some said no news while others working on hacking it, is there any confirmed news about when it will be opened?

What about the root to install the apps that need root? can I install it? or it is depends on the bootloader unlocked also?
[HTC Sensation] lolwut16:
Hey I just got the update for Arabic support a couple of days ago, and though I wasn't gonna install it initially because I didn't need it I thought I might as well just get the update out of way and do it thinking that I'll be able to disable the arabic support. Now that it's updated I've noticed that it's fixed the issue I had with the default media player where it stopped the audio after about a minute but some of the text on the phone(like where it tells me how much unread mail I have) appears in arabic. How do I turn this off? Language selected is English(United Arab Emirates). Thanks.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] lightning69:
I recently upgrade to Darky Extreme V10.1 and I was on Dark Core 2.5 kernel and the front camera is not working(multiple image). I like the hack camera in Darky V10.1 for being able to use the Power button to take pictures.

Then I try apply the stock camera but lose the camera hack features. The other way to get the front camera working with camera hack is to use Dark Core 2.4. I try Dark Core 2.6 but the front camera is still broken.

Is there a big difference in Dark Core 2.4 and 2.5 or 2.6?

Is there a fix for the front camera with Dark core 2.5 or 2.6 while still maintaning the camera hack?

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirzahodzic:
I'm on Froyo, Darky's latest 2.2.1 ROM, my download mode doesn't work, but CWM works, is there a way to update bootloaders (2.3) from cwm, using a flashable zip so i can flash a GB rom with cwm? Is that even possible? I'm willing to donate if someone comes up with a flashable zip that updates bootloaders :D

Thanks.
[Atrix 4G General] cletusarrarr:
http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_xt...hina_it_is_the_new_king_of_dual-news-2752.php

This is seemingly a clone of the Atrix for the most minus a few specifications like 8mp cam, dual sim and 8gb onboard instead of 16gb.

what intrigues me is that it comes with Gingerbread with motoblur, the fact that they have released it WITH motoblur means that they should be near completion of gingerbread for the atrix as well.

something that makes me wonder :-

Is the bootloader unlocked ?

If we get a dump of this phone, can it be ported to the atrix ?

and so on...
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
There is already a thread discussing this phone.

besides it doesnt have webtop, if i dont mistaken. but it has dual sim and dual standby, thats pretty awesome!

[Atrix 4G General] guidoido004:
its china only

like the cliq 3, theres already one in there, with 1.4ghz 1gb RAM 4 inches with digital tv, its great, buts only in china avaible =(

the hardware of that phone is diferent from ours(that has no HDMI and no WebTop, big diference from ours), so no need to be happy for that be avaible(chinese guys can be happy about it! =p), and relax, soon(1 or 1/2 months) gingerbread will be released =)
[Atrix 4G General] alistair3149:
As other phone of XT series,

they never get official update,

worse than the case of Milestone (Droid),

so its better to buy Atrix

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AllWin:
Finally i can send/receive messages as long as i want, but i already see one weird thing: long messages are being sent as MMS (at least my phone says so). Is that true? That would be deal breaker for me, as i'm sending a lot of very long messages and that costs me nothing, BUT i will have to pay for if they are sent as MMS.

Other then that, ROM feels much smoother then any previous Sense 3.0 based ROM. Nice.

By some reason i can't add photo frame widget. Mail widget is a bit oversized IMO. By the way, what's wrong with video playback while holding phone in vertical position? Half of the screen is all in green color.

What kernel is included in this ROM?

Thanks for your hard work guys!

Having the same issues as others have mentioned changing alarm sounds. Can't change the default ones from Beeps (choose another, it previews the sounds, click Apply, stays as "Beeps") and new ones default to Old Phone and can't be changed either.

Oddly, my landscape video seems to work just fine. Played a couple of mp4s from SD card in landscape and portrait, I don't see any issues.

Is the Weather live wallpaper supposed to stop animating after one cycle?

MMS comes in as 128kb no matter what - size is set to 300k in settings. I'd prefer to keep the Sense messaging app over the stock or CM7 one. Any way to fix outside of repackaging the ROM zip with the "Nexusone" fix as mentioned earlier?

Haven't noticed a missed text yet, but haven't gotten that many either the last 2 days.

Weather is misaligned on lockscreen for more then just "sunny" forecast. "Thunderstorms" today has the same issue (slight cut off on left side digits for temp).

Anyone else install the Swype beta? Seems like it "loses" Swype ability randomly. From what I can tell it might be tied to reboots? Swype will not swype, and you have to change touch input from Swype to something else and back again for it to work. Not sure if it's a ROM bug or Swype beta bug though.

Battery life seems really good, had first Rosie reload this morning when messing with the Locations app and widget. Much better than prior Sense 3.0 ROMs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmatang:
This happens to me both on Virtuous Fusion as well as Virtuous Sense 1.0.2

So I can only assume it's either a Sense issue or a Swype beta issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bugarrun:
The problem you are encountering using Swype does not exist using InsertCoin_Vision Sense2.1 + 3.0 (v1.5)

I am back to using that rom until the problems encountered by others are resolved.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chewy106:
It did on 1.4 and I did not see in the changelog it was corrected. I switched from InsertCoin to this ROM, and have experienced the Swype issue on both.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ahmadka:
Firstly, a big kudos kudos to the hard working devs who have made Desire Z users to also experience Sense 3.0 ! Keep it up guys, you ROCK ! :)

Now I want to ask, I'm a new Desire Z user running stock stuff so far, but I want to give this a go ... Is it worth trying this out now or should I wait for more refined versions ?

I'm asking this because I would have to read up a lot of stuff (I'm already reading now though) on how to root and install this, etc ... I dont mind doing this as I have done similar procedures for other non-Android phones I've had, but its the effort that you normally put into these kind of things ... So from this perspective, should I wait for now for this project to mature a little, or is this version okay enough to be tried out .. ?

Also, I hope the core running of the phone and basic apps and everything run fine, right ?

Thanks in advance guys :)

EDIT: Also, suppose I update to this ROM and then sometime from now an update is available for this ROM ... How easy would it be to update it then ? Can you perform an OTA or something for custom ROMs as well ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] havocnl:
Work around for people who are missing SMS messages (or just want to be safe). This appears to be a Gingerbread problem, not this ROM, not Sense, but Gingerbread.

To have a workaround you can install the "Gingerbread Ghostly SMS" app (Android Market download link).

This app reads SMS messages before they are processed to the SMS database and message app. It quickly stores them in a internal database.

This way you can compare the messages in this app with those in your message app.

If you find a SMS you are missing, you can even transfer it to the message app so you can reply to it normally from there.

This app has worked for me a couple of times already. Hope you can use this to stay in contact with your friends.

You may use the thanks button ;)

hmm never recognized this...

i have only the problem to install the german layout with preinstalled english-only swype..

(delete swype apks in system directory solves this...)

iam using Keyboard Manager (root) (XDA-Link)

i prefer the default keyboard in landscape mode and swype in portrait mode and this app will switch it for me... maybe you can use it as a workaround...

(just rotate instead of going to settings to change it manually)

just a few issues so far, just putting them out there

having some problems with the ".com" button, only works when you hold it, and then you get 3 or 4 ie ".com.com.com"

apps to sd freaked out on me when moving some apps back to the phone storage from the sd card. had 1 reboot and some flashing screens.

other than that seems a little slow here and there, probably because it is a bigger rom. looking forward to the updates

Unable to change alarm sound problem workaround

I was having the same unable to change alarm sound/ringtone problem, reported above.

This is what worked for me as a workaround:

I changed alarm sound/ringtone AND the days the alarm should sound in one step. Days and alarm sound/ringtone were then saved correctly.

So if you want to change just the alarm sound, just first of all change the days to something else, exit and then change the days AND the alarm sound in one step, exit and you are done.

At least this worked for me. Hope it helps until the rom is fixed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chewy106:
Tried that and didn't work :/

I've tried changing days of existing alarms, days/times, created entire new ones, re-edited new ones, etc. No matter what, it doesn't seem to update the alarm sound to what you choose, it stays as whatever it defaulted to.

With Swype, I didn't notice an issue on older Virtuous ROMs that came with the T-Mobile OEM version of Swype. I've only seen it on newer Sense ROMs that I've manually installed the Swype Beta on. And it only seems to happen after a reboot. I'm guessing it has to be either tied to the Swype Beta or parts of Sense 3.0 or both (since Sense 3.0 has their own "swipe"-type input, which is pretty bad).

EDIT: Installed the "Gingerbread Ghostly SMS" and it caught a Facebook text that I had missed. Good to know it's a GB issue and not the ROMs or Radio! Thanks, this is better than the SMS2Gmail that wanted my Gmail password!
