HTC told me that if i was to send it with Android on it that it would VOID my warranty. Thankfully i came across a guy that told me that i should be able to flash the phone back to the stock software. but what i wanna know is will HTC be able to find out that my phone was rooted back to Windows? if so is there anyway else to fix this touch screen problem? pleaasse help!

Hi people,

Has anyone got this working on their vega?

just keeps telling me it cant find my phone so wont load up past that.

it works on ipods etc which arent phones..
[Vega Themes and Apps] thomskipsp:
I also can't get it to work, but hey, its a tablet;)
[Vega Themes and Apps] rozza21:
Tried making a titanium backup of whatsapp + the data on your phone, then restoeing it on the vega? Worked for me...

Sadly it doesn't work for honeycomb. My contacts won't be shown anymore...:(

I've gone down the backup/restore route between devices but it is true.. contacts missing.

If anyone has trouble installing A2EXT or A2SD, or simply don't have an SD card class 9000! then S2E is for you.

S2E is an application .apk you download from the Android Market, set what you want to go on your SD card, and that's IT!

No scripts, no errors.. no hassle.

::Note:: You must have your SD card partitioned.. which you can do with "Rom Manager"

Here is the Market Link:

OMG!! Downloading NOW ! I'm doing a fresh install of the latest nightly I'll try it out and let you know how it works. Thanks again!

Troy.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bunu:
I think that I....I....I love you. lol
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bearshare:
This only works with CM7, not with other ROM like Salsa Slide. Not testing with other ROM so don't know if it works. However, this soft is pretty good.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jacewt:
Anyone using that on the slide? Can you use it on top of darktremmor?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SefEXE:
Ooh I remember this.

I saw it on the XDA Portal back when it got posted. Worked pretty well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] thegreenfamily04:
Just reporting back with my results......

Works Perfectly!!!! :) Thank you again!

This is on the latest nightly (#142 - Android 2.3.5 O.C. to 844Mhz)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] NJAZ:
I started using this on both my N1 and my Slide about 3 months ago. Never a problem. DT is buggy and seems to be in perpetual beta development. Good post OP.

*I've only used this with cm7*

Wonderful app!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingjehu:
Has anyone gone from one nightly to another with this? Did it stick?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mojoffdawal:
Hi all. I've partitioned my SD card using rom manager with a 512 mb ext partition and a 30 mb swap vol, yet when I got to S2E, I see no space on my ext partition. Any special changes that I need to do to the settings in the app or something else I might be missing? Thanks.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jimczyz:
Sticks from one nightly to the next so far.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bunu:
Yes it sticks.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingjehu:
Is it EXT4? I noticed that it doesn't even show up if it's ext2 or 3.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bunu:
This is kinda strange...try partitioning straight from the recovery menu, I used ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5 and it worked great (I like this version because you can manually adjust how big you want the ext partition while ROM Manager and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 only let you go up to 512 mb)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mojoffdawal:
Thanks guys, for some reason Rom Manager hadn't actually partitioned the whole thing. It made my regular sd partition smaller and left what would be the ext partition and swap patition sizes alone. It just didn't create them. So I erased my sd card and retried to partition through rom manager and it worked. I'm on 2.5.0.7.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jimczyz:
Glad it is working for you, it is a great app.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eclipsed450:
had the partition on my card already, but never got around to using it - found the scripts to be too much. this was EASY AS PIE! however, my apps was only 17mb. my davlik cache was 64mb, so that was nice to move. i've now got 100mb free. i was able to reload some apps i recently removed because i was hovering ~15-20mb. this is surely a great app :-)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Raiden8816:
I'm having the same issue, partition with RM and the only option here is download cache on S2E
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HD Case:
Works like a charm for me. Thanks for the great tip!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HD Case:
Although S2E mainly works like a charm for me, over the last day or so, I have been getting lots of random reboots. And it seems to be getting more frequent. I tried S2E with apps data selected to be moved. It moved it ok, and everything was functional, but very slow (and probably lots of wear & tear on the SD card). So I restored a previous nandroid BU which did not have apps data selected and it seems like that's when the trouble started.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] optimusodd:
Hey,What's the storage space of your SD Card ?

What should be the ideal configuration for a 2GB card in terms of :

(1)Ext Size

(2)Swap size

does anyone know of an app that allows free wifi calling?...i've seen a bunch of stuff on google about google voice being able to or something like that but i can't figure it out...and when i say "wifi calling", i mean like what t-mobile offers, just using the wifi connection to make calls to any landline or cell phone without needing to add friends or anything like that..

Thanks in advance
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrr666:
nope

I dont think there are any apps for that, ive looked before to no avail
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reddragon72:
I know that Fring will allow you to call any phone for a per min call, and they have pretty cheap rates. I think in the US 5 bucks gets you 500 min of calls or something like that at .9 cents a min to us land and cell, but you do get a new number.

Also sip in 2.3.3 allows some kind of backward calling with google voice. Look into that if you want to keep your number the same.

Also Sprint offers the airave. Look into that if you have a signal issue at your house.

But WIFI calling is only T-Mobile and will never work for another carrier unless that carrier makes their own version.

Smh the youtube function hates me... click HERE to watch the video...

Touchscreen not working right as of yet... I strongly suggest a USB mouse and Keyboard for this... Touchscreen is pretty much unusable at this time. I would appreciate any help that can be offered.

First start off downloading THIS. It is the ROOTFS.. first off it needs to have the /etc/fstab edited properly to include / as mmcblk0p11 instead of 13... I know I know... This is a work in progress....

Next download THIS... Contains the ubuntu kernel and boot information.. the boot.img and system.img are for your stock ANDROID rom of choice.. just extract the IMG's out of the roms and place them in the folder..

Download THIS and place it in the directory you extracted the above files to.

ADB does work.. and you can ADB into your tab.. I have not created Windows directions yet.. but you can pretty much run the same commands...

I AM NOT TO BLAME FOR ANYTHING! This REPARTITIONS your device and ERASES EVERYTHING... you must do a FULL ODIN to restore to STOCK.... I am NOT responsible for anything that happens to your device.

remember to chmod +x nvflash and the script...

And wait......... It takes about 20 minutes to flash everything... be patient..

When it is done flashing boot up like you were going to go into CWM recovery... Your recovery is now your linux boot image.. You can use NVFlash to flash back CWM to apply whatever and just flash the linux.img back to partition 8 to get ubuntu back..

Thanks again to LilStevie.. without him this would not be possible...

my github code is availabe here.

If you would like to donate for my work and to the OMFGB/OMGB build box which I own and run click HERE

I'll pretty this up when I have a free minute...

Will this work if one has a locked bootloader?

Nice work, Poitee.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] poitee:
Hmph.. I would have thought more interest would have been shown in this... Should I continue development???? The asus guys love ubuntu on there tabs..... you guys let me know..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] poitee:
I don't have much experience with the locked bootloader SGT's... Im sorry I can't answer your question...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] SeanHacker:
I'm sure there's tons of interest. These tab 10.1 threads seem so slow at times. a lot different then I'm used to. I'd keep goin with it bro. its gonna be sweet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] rob61280:
This would derinately be useful to me, even more so if it could be dual booted, although I suspect my locked bootloader could be a stumbling block. Thanks for the effort you've put in so far.

R
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] poitee:
It does dual boot... what it does is make your recovery partition your boot partition for ubuntu..

as far as locked bootloader... Im not sure..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] anilkuj:
yes please definitely interested in getting a version which fully works with the touch screen , that would be awesome!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] dsh897:
Of course were interested. Stop slacking and get past an alpha stage to a bets stage so we can all play. :)

Goodwork

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] prosive:
This is awesome! Great job. I can't wait for a dual boot setup.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Pcsrule:
This is awesome! Definitely keep up the good work. It should work on a locked tab no problem you'll just need to use Odin instead of nvflash so a bit of modification is needed to wrap those images into md5 files for Odin. If I have some free time I'll try it on my locked tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] rob61280:
Wow I just saw the video and I'm very impressed, I can see this making my netbook redundant :-) I'll try it out once it becomes odin flashable and I have the time to find out more about how it works.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Vlad_z:
Yes, I would love to see some Linux working on a galaxy tab with touch screen functioning at minimum.

I was following viewsonic grab Ubuntu thread since last December but developers never got it working. Also video drivers was generic ones without hardware acceleration, camera and sensors did not work either... but this was less important for me then touch screen functionality.

If you can make it happen then by all means you should continue...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] originalone:
nice...

would any of the existing tegra2 development from motorola help? they got ubuntu running on the atrix device.. maybe something can be used?

im pretty sure it can be distributed onto many devices, as the ventana platform is standard, but drivers for touch, panel etc is missing..

how did you get the boot changed? how is the bootloader able to boot between 2 different kernels? do you have the source for bootloader available?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] atticusmas:
Im into it, but not until the touchscreen and the clockwork is fixed
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] TheDub:
+1. I agree, especially about the Touchscreen, not many have the USB adapter to play around with it so that's probably why the reply count is low.

I think once it's usable without a mouse and keyboard you will see an explosion of interest in this. It's really a good idea to... really opens up the power of these things. Android is nice but it's kiddy stuff compared to a full blown Linux distro.

Linux for Tegra should help provide native 3D acceleration and stuff to If I'm not mistaken... I see a bright future for Ubuntu on tablets. (for nerds like us anyways ;))

Please don't stop development! lol I really look forward to it :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] krlrvr:
+1 I also would like to have a fully functional Tux Tab. Especially if you can use ubuntu variants like my personal favorite Ultimate Edition. The latest 3.0 lite version runs around 220mb RAM at full load stock. This is XFCE & OPENBOX, not Gnome. Poitee, please continue the great work you're doing. Would love to dual boot a buntu and you're Blazar rom:D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] rob61280:
I think TheDub is spot on here, I'm waiting for my usb adapter, and the tab isn't on sale in all markets yet. I suspect this thread will gain momentum soon.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] poitee:
Just a little note.. not much progress has been made with the touchscreen... Its a samsung thing.. The sammy drivers don't play well with Ubuntu... As soon as I can get a free minute work will resume... I am working 2 jobs right now so it's kinda tough.. a lot of the work on this port was done from the front seat of an ambulance in between runs...

Poitee what you're doing is awesome! If you need a beta tester just let me know and I will be happy to help! The only problem is thought, can you get back clockwork recovery once you overwrite the recovery partition? And then switch back to Ubuntu? I would hate to be stuck with android 3.1 forever...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] dasacc22:
I'm definitely interested, personally I'm looking for something that could double as a dev environment for android development when im sitting passenger side that doesn't run so hot in the lap :p

If bluetooth was functional out the box, that'd be great too. I'll be receiving a tab in 2 days and this will undoubtedly be one of the first things I'll be playing with.

Does bluetooth work in this so i could connect, my bt keyboard amd mouse
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] yalkowni:
Can't you try using the same

Method of how they enabled touch screen on the transformer for this Sent from my T959 using XDA App
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] da.trute:
I think the fact you have to flash this and then back to you normal ROM is going to put people off even trying it, that will change instantly if you can get it to dual boot or maybe even run from a desktop link in Android.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] armint:
Touch screen drivers

Maybe I'm stating something obvious here, but I'm going to give it a go anyway: Some googling got me to a galaxy tab teardown page showing that the galaxy tab 10.1 uses the atmel mxt1386 and 3x mxt154 for its touch screen controller (sorry, I can't post a link, the forum software doesn't let me, just google for "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 teardown"). Some more googling got me to the conclusion that there is a linux driver available for this controller in the 3.0 kernel (maybe also in earlier versions, I don't know). The driver is in the file drivers/input/touchscreen/atmel_mxt_ts.c . I think at the very least a backport should be possible. Would it not be easier/cleaner to use this driver than trying to port samsung's android drivers back to linux? What do you guys think?

Cheers,

Armin

Are there any progress on the touchscreen? Ill start fiddling with this right away :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] armint:
Be sure to compare the versions, because from the patches I found I understood that this driver supports multiple atmel controllers and support for the controller in the galaxy tab 10.1 was not in it from the start.

i try to do this right: but nvflash told me "not executable magic 7F45"

i would like to know should ubuntu.tar.gz put in /,or /system/etc ?

and others such as nvflash or etc put in system/etc?
