Rooting isn't all that bad, and its almost impossible to permanently brick an s2. As for the warranty you can always flash it back to how it was so there aren't many reasons not to root.

[A7 General] NarcoNarc:
Hello, I was wandering if it would be possible to port the USB drivers from Android 3.1 to use on Android 2.2 for use on the A7. I love this tablet, but hate the lack of USB device support. If it is at all possible how hard would it be to do so? Thanks for any help at all. Sorry if this has been asked before.
[A7 General] tumpy:
why don't you try loading dexter A7comb 3.0.1 rom, you can run it as HC or GB..
[A7 General] NarcoNarc:
Does it have USB mouse support? And doesn't it have a fair share of bugs?
[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:
i think i included the USB_OTG app in HC3.0 release, which can enable your usb port, if you get a MALE-A to MALE-A cable (OTG cable i think its called)

then you get full usb connection support, and mapping to windows works too.

Its disabled for use in regular mod i think.

technically, the trick is in a terminal program,

to do this one line,

DEVICE MODE

echo 0 >/proc/test_program/usb

HOST MODE

echo 1 >/proc/test_program/usb

Hello.

Who does have any experience with video playback?

I always record TV-Shows and watch them here and there.

Did try yesterday with the X10 mini pro and the video was not smooth at all.

I tried several players. Either the voice was normal speed and video was going way slower or video was hanging/jumping every few seconds to catch up with voice.

It's not HD. I did attach the file information.

I'm running on slades froyo rom (v5).

Thanks.

Good morning all!

I need some help verifying my install on my eemc. The goal was to install Phiremods new test build based on the 101 nightly. I followed the instructions, and think I have it installed correctly. Everything runs. Not having any problems that I can tell. So under "about tablet" it says:

Hi.

Search for flashtool in this forum... it will help you root your phone and get xrecovery and busybox installed. You will need that to install custom roms.

Custom roms will also be found in this forum, so a little search will help.

Keep in mind that GB for X10 does not have full camera implemented. I have Froyo (MIUI) which works like a charm for me.

Hi,

Tried rooting my Milestone XT720 with superoneclick. Am getting the following error:

Have installed the drivers from the Motorola site and the phone is connected on the 'Portal and Tools' mode.

Android Version: 2.1

Any suggestions?

Cheers,
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
SuperOneClick works on my laptop but not my desktop for some reason (but I'm using the linux/mono version). I always have my phone connected "charge only" mode when I'm doing stuff like this, but I don't know if that matters.

Another approach to rooting XT720 that I've used a lot:

Install "Explorer" by Speed Software (free* in market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.speedsoftware.explorer)

Download UniversalAndroot 1.6.2 beta 5 to your sd card

Run Explorer to find and open/install the UniversalAndroot.apk from the sd card

Run Universal Androot and root your phone

*the very popular "Root Explorer" is also by Speed Software, but it's the paid version
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
I use Universal and it works well. Either method will work, you just need to get root. Universal does have one nice feature, the ability to Unroot. This is nice if you have to take your device in. Just unroot, delete the Superuser apk and uninstall Universal. They won't be any wiser for it. Then when you are done, you can reroot no problem. Woot!
[Milestone XT720 General] Wooster123:
Works like a charm. :-)

Am trying to now move the apps to the sdcard. I heard apps2sd does not work with 2.1. I'm not able to find it in the market
[Milestone XT720 General] androidlover123:
To get apps to sd card, just use link2sd; even better than apps2sd i think. First of all works on 2.1. second of all, it can store all apps on sd card, unlike apps2sd which only moves apps 2 sd card if function is made available by developer. I am using it now on my xt720 and works like a charm!! I have around 70 to 80 mb free internal memory!! Just make sure you make a second partition on your sd card(using free software like minitool partition). Hope that helps!
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
There is a good guide over in the themes and apps forum on Link2Sd by Zachary57 if you want to go that route while on 2.1 Link2sd is probably the best option for beginners cause you have partition your card right before applying and really don't have to do any ADB since Link2sd is an apk you can get from the market. App2sd can get confusing and frustrating until you get the hang of it. App2sd on froyo and eclair are two completely different processes, fyi.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] wave_sailor:
After I restore an image, I use Titanium backup to restore apps. I then do a move to SD to free up internal storage. But now during restore, I have soo many apps that internal storage gets full during the restore.

How can I solve this chicken and egg problem?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] txdeathray:
you could move apps as they're being restored (once you run out of space, android should prompt you to do something like move apps). or, i'm not sure if this will work or not so try at your own risk, flash DarkTremor's app2sd first (move cache to sd if necessary), then restore your apps.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] TJBunch1228:
Just split your batch restore in half. Restore the first half, move to SD. Then restore the second half, move to SD. Good luck.

My husband and I are selling our phones to get the new 3d. We both had rooted our phones so we needed to unroot them. I did mine 2 weeks ago and it took quite some doing but finally got it to work. So I unrooted and than downloaded the OTA update and sold my phone.

Sooooo I need to do the same to my husbands unfortunatly his phone is in a different state than mine. First thing I noticed is that his hboot is .97.. Now mine was 2.1. I am newvous about trying the procedures I used since he has different hboot. Secondly he has a custom rom installed something that has gingerbread on it already. He is not really sure what he did since he flashed rom's and radio's etc etc (arrgg)

right now here is where I am on the state of his phone..

s-on

hboot .97

radio 2.15.00.09.01

any help on how to unroot his phone and get back to a point that if sprint has another upgrade a new person can just accept the OTA upgrade without any issues..

thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
You need to do an RUU. Try the 3.29 or 3.30 one from this site:http://goo-inside.me/supersonic/stock/ruu/

Download the exe file, the other is the md5 checksum. That's probably how you did yours, just try an older one. Worst case is that it errors out. If it does that, just try another one.

Or you could run a PC36IMG of the RUU through the bootloader, your choice. You're halfway there since you have s-on. Did you check with the buyer to see if they want to root it? If so, you can still run the RUU, just keep it on Froyo so that they have the option.

[HTC EVO 3D] ballr4lyf:
So, I'm not eligible for an upgrade until 7/1. I know I could probably get it moved up to launch date, but I want to see what the general consensus is from the community before upgrading.

Anyhoo... on to my main point. One of the selling points for me is the 4GB of internal storage. Yet, one of the reviews I read pointed out that only a little over a Gig of that is what you have left to play with (I think it was the androidcentral hands-on vid, actually). Another review pointed out that some bloatware could be easily removed. To any of you getting your e3d on launch day (or really any time before 7/1 :P), could you let the rest of us know how much space you are left with after removing some of the bloat?

I realize that I can install my apps to the SD card, which is what I'm doing now, but I really don't want to have to do that... Apps are always faster if run from internal memory.

Thanks in advance. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] LearnIIBurn:
I think a gig of space is a pretty solid amount of app room (at least for me). I managed to happily enjoy my OG Evo with the space it gave me, without ever running into problems filling it up with apps. I guess I'm kind of a minimalist actually though. I don't like having 45-50 apps installed at once.

But I think once we can remove all the bloat, and streamline everything; the amount of available space on custom roms will be sufficient :).
[HTC EVO 3D] Gordon Ramsay:
The guy I got the bootloader pics from said he had .98 gig after installing 35 apps.
[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
im sorry but this may just be me since i am coming from a hero.. but a gig is freaking huge.. the most i have ever been able to pull on my hero by altering things is like 170mb.. and i have a crap ton of apps installed, and dont fill that up.. i understand a gig would fill up with movies and potentially games (i dont play them really).. but for me, a gig will be more than enough for a long time, i will keep movies on sd..
[HTC EVO 3D] ballr4lyf:
I'm an app whore. I have 91 apps... I think. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] Itchiee:
It must have a lot of bloat (or a large swap area) to take up 3gigs considering how much the Evo 4G has to work with.
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
If space is really an issue for you, wait for SGSII. Coming from a Hero, 1GB for apps is HUGE. Replace that with a line from a Rob Schneider movie "HUGE *****" or VP Joe Biden "F@cking Huge!", its enough for more than 200 apps
[HTC EVO 3D] oldjackbob:
Can you tell me where you got that information? Cuz I'm not sure I'd agree. Have you actually done a speed comparison? SD card read speeds are much faster than SD write speeds, so I don't see where any speed penalty would come from having my apps on the card (which I do).
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
I know one thing any app you install on the card doesn't let you use it's widget, takes an extra minute to show up as available whenever you boot your phone. I have a brand new 32gb micro sd class 10 sitting here for my Evo 3d though. 1gb should be plenty for apps.
[HTC EVO 3D] YoungSinema:
I'm coming from a Hero too, so 1 GB is fine. I also plan on keeping my Hero, and probably won't have the same apps on both phones.

Seeing external SD card

bweave - I am repeating what I have said in the "lost files from my sd card" thread, but here goes. I use the old fashioned method of mounting my sd card in a r/w card gizmo (I use a cheapo Wal**** Targus card reader writer) I attach this to my desktop via usb and then can see the card as a mass storage unit in Win 7. I can then delete files or add music/pictures/movies and when done I put the card back in my a500 where I can then see and display the files perfectly. I do realise that this is not the most tech savvy way of doing it but it works and touch wood I have never lost or corrupted a single file. In the other forum thread several people were continually losing files from the sd card. Now if you are talking about external usb hard drives and not just the sd card then I can recommend the app "USB Mount All v1.3" from the Marketplace with this you can see and mount/unmount all external sources - cards, thumb drives and hard drives. Hope my two penneth worth might be of assistance.

Hello,

Just got my new TF and thanks to XDA I've already rooted it and installed rom Prime 1.4 to get a rooted 3.1 android version.

Everything goes fine except for mapping network shares. Mounting network shares with cifs manager is ok except that I'm French so some directories in my network got unicode characters and I can't mount them.

Does anyone know how to bypass this limitation ?

On my understanding, I should install a cifs.ko module compiled for the TF and the 3.1 Android version in /system/lib/modules but I don't know where to find such module.

Thanks in advance
[Eee Pad Transformer General] david279:
Try es strongs file explorer. It allows you to add network shares.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] XPNect:
Don't know if this can help you or not, but my 1st mistake with cifs manager when I tried it fist time was that I haven't put anything on mount point.

What you need on the fields of cifs manager is:

Share Path: The path to your share ==> ex: 192.168.1.5/share (this is the shared dir on your server)

Mount point: The name of the "false" directory that will simulate that your share is on your tablet ==> ex: /sdcard/cifs/share (this is up to you but keep close to this)

Plus of course username and password (I thinks that anonymous connection is not allowed anyway)

Hope this help
[Eee Pad Transformer General] XPNect:
I don't know how I can do that. Is it an argument to parse in a field of cifs manager ? If so how should I do that ?

Can you help me with this please.

If you edit the settings for a mount point (Long press on it, then choose edit), there is an options text field at the bottom. Put it in there, save, and try mounting it.
