First of all, this is not the Desire section. Do not flash any of the links in the OP to anything other than a MT4G.

Any version of CWM earlier than version 3 cannot flash anything beyond Froyo. If you want to flash GB or ICS based ROMs, you need 3 or later. As far as bugs, 5.0.2.0 by all accounts is bug-free. The touch version may still have a bug or two, although none have been reported.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] banderz777:
So how is that done please ?????
[myTouch 4G Android Development] saranhai:
i have no idea what you're talking about......

but from your post, it seems like you have the HTC Desire?

if so,

DON'T POST HERE, AND DON'T USE THIS RECOVERY AS IT PROBABLY WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.

not sure what made you post in the MT4G Dev section LOL but ok...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
You're right, but I already said all that like 3 days ago. ;)

Hi,

I wanted to install the newest CWM but i get access denied the whole time.

Anyone can help me?

[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Using which method, terminal? Are you getting SU access first?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] donj001:
This is what I get when I try to flash via terminal. Anyone else experienced this?

Have verified that the image is in that path and named correctly as well.

1|app_71@android:/ # flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

error scanning partitions: No such file or directory

1|app_71@android:/ #

Sent from my HTC Creamed Glacier
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
I don't know what "1|app_71@android:/" is all about. Never seen that in a terminal app before. If you're absolutely sure the file is indeed in the root of your SD, and the file name you're typing in matches up with the actual file's name, then it's possible your ROM doesn't have the flash_image binary.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] donj001:
I considered that, but verified flash_image is installed and functional so I suppose that more research is needed. Thanks for the reply

[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
No prob. Since I can't think of any other cause, I am pretty curious what the gibberish at the beginning of each command line is.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] donj001:
$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

$su

# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

failed with error: -1

Okay so now this is something more reasonable as far as errors go. The "gibberish" must have been path errors from the ICS test build that I was using

[myTouch 4G Android Development] prztruspaz:
so i cant do ANY flashing because CWM is not letting me choose zip from sd card. ive been trying for some time now and i just wanna flash a rom and get on with my life. is there any work around from this. i would really apperciate it
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
You have to give more details than that. What does "it won't let me" mean?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] .BetaBoy:
1. Download and rename it to "recovery.img"

2. Place on root of your SD card

3. Use the terminal instructions

4. Smile cause it worked flawlessly :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
How would that help him? He already has CWM installed.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ami2510:
Would you mind elaborating. I have the same issue, yes I followed the steps but flash_image was not found... it is on the sdcard
[myTouch 4G Android Development] BionicBBQ:
Awesome. It worked for me! :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Not all ROMs support the flash_image binary so you can't use the terminal method in that case.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ami2510:
Thanks TeeJay, damn... I wanted to try the cwm method but I only have install zip from as card and nothing else.

so how should I get cwm on my phone?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
If your phone is currently bootable, I would install it through ROM Manager.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] biggtubbzz:
i keep getting #flash_image not found is any one else???
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Read a couple posts up.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ami2510:
See, the thing is, when I use the ROM manager in CWM then it only gives me the ability to selects .zip files... which basically hides the .img files from me, so I can't select the .img file...

Or maybe there is some hidden option that I havent seen... not even with 4Ext I was able to select the img and install it. It shows up in the folder listing but not where it says install from zip or install ROM...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tyrone1:
the first selection in ROM manager is "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"

select that one and verify your phone model and it will install CWM.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ami2510:
That just installs the regular version which I already have. If I click on touch it wanna some Paypal our redeem code...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Yeah, the touch version is not free unless you install it manually using one of them methods in the OP.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ami2510:
I see, I guess since I can't install it via terminal because of the flash_image not found error then I will have to buy it...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] orangekid:
I'm on the touch version and every time I try to back up a ROM at the end it says error can't open e:*log or something like that and it won't restore either...

any fix for this?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] orangekid:
if anyone runs into this I wiped cache and it seemed to fix it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Yeah, I ran into the exact same thing and posted the fix a few pages back. It was pretty concerning at first, because those /cache errors are similar to what is seen when your eMMC fails!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] orangekid:
I know, I freaked the hell out, but since I had the good emmc chip I didn't understand how I just S-OFF'ed the thing like a few days ago and it's already acting up, then I google search it and all these people have a similar issue talking about having to return the phone for warranty and all this stuff, but I was pretty relieved when it didn't give me any errors after wiping cache.

Hello, having a weird issue. I kept getting a failed to create image trying to back up a rom, then after a few tries it seemed as if it created it, went through all the steps and in the end said back up was created. Great right? Well I flashed another rom (without looking first, dang me!) and when I went to check my backups again wanting to go back the backup was not there. It was not created after all. Any thoughts?

Try a different sd card? Sounds like it's having trouble writing to the card.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] SJMarty:
Hopefully, this is the appropriate thread to post this. I'm having a little display issue with ClockworkMod Touch on my HTC Glacier (myTouch 4G). When I reboot into recovery, the Touch interface comes up correctly. When I select "Advanced" from the menu, the "Advanced and Debugging Menu" comes up. The issue is that the line that is supposed to be under "Fix Permissions" is actually above it. It's a crappy picture but hopefully the attached image will help.

The display has looked like this since I installed the Touch interface so it has been there quite a while. I have e-mailed the developer twice in the last year or so but no update.

So, does the Touch interface look like this for everyone or is it something with my phone?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] 1600RoadStar:

Using CM7x_93nightly on NS4G.

Is there a tweak/setting in the Gallery app so that the sequence order of images displayed in a slideshow follow alphabetical/numeric sequence rather than by the date of the install?

I installed QuickPic as an alternative "Gallery" app. QPic has a handful of settings including one that mentions "logical order" but is not flawless. Still better than Gallery. Is there anything else better that you would recommend?

Hi guys,

Here is a tutorial to get OpenVPN working on a p500 with mik's 6.5.7 (latest stable release). This works.

how to get OpenVPN configured, running, and connected

:

Create symlinks to ifconfig and route

open SSHdroid (or adb, terminal emulator, etc.)

type this:

su (press enter adn this will prompt for root access just grant)

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system

chmod 700 /system/xbin/openvpn

mkdir /system/xbin/bb

busybox ln -s /system/xbin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/ifconfig

busybox ln -s /system/xbin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/route

reboot

Download OpenVPN Installer from the Market

when installing choose:

/system/xbin

and then

Turns out that I had to add this rule in iptables on my server. Although openvpn was working from my pc (on limited ports) it would not work at all with my phone. The fix was:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j SNAT --to-source [ip of server]

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Chaladino:
is this what youre looking for ?

Hi there

I came across your post sometimes ago.

Now I was looking deeply in my system files to tweak something not related at all to GPS. And found erratically a config file related to the internal GPS

Am I smart ...I remembered your post and think this is for you :

But you have to get your hands dirty a little :)

The file path is system/etc/sirfgps.conf

the file is easily understandable with comments at the begining

as I understand you can enable GPS logging and choose the log filename.

You will find a line:

#DEBUGGING_FILES : 0 - no log file, 1 - log files enabled

and at the end

LOG_PATH=/sdcard/gps/csr

This is where the log file should be, if you enabled logging with the line

DEBUGGING_FILES=1

- and you can modify to whatever path you like

Was it that simple !

Well I have not tested it but it should work. no sure though, but I think your phone should be rooted or it could be done with adb....

And last important thing, you must mount the system folder rw before any change otherwise... Well you know...

Tell me if that was useful to you and your project...

Or just push the thanks button :)

can anyone do that please?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Just buy it on the internet. It's not that expensive.

I had a Droid 2 Global for which Verizon screwed up the unlock codes via OTA update (only way to unlock was through Verizon). So, yeah I have experience asking people to request an unlock codes for me, and in 99% cases noone is willing to help unless you get seriously lucky.

The reason is - unlocking ties the phone to the persons account + it has to be active on ATT network + they can request only one unlock code in 6 months or something. So, if they do an unloсk for you, they can't do it for themselves in the next half a year.
[TouchPad General] KeKeTTe:
Hi,

i just found settings for good video encoding for my TouchPad.

all you need is ffmpeg compiled with libx264 support and an aac encoder.

and an OS like linux, bsd, osx, ... but not windows :)

ffmpeg -i source.flv -f mp4 -vcodec libx264 -b 800k -aspect 16:9 -s 1024x576 -x264opts level=41:weightp=2:me=umh:bframes=0 -threads 4 -ab 96k out.mp4

Audio part:

dont set -acodec: it'll automatically choose the best AAC encoder

audio bitrate: 96k, or 128k if you have good headphones

Video part:

TouchPad support mp4 h264 High Profile Level 4.1, but suxx with bframes: added in -x264opts

also support me=umh weightp=2

aspect: if you dont know your video aspect: remove this arg

size: if the original width > 1024, set -s 1024xH and calcul the H (or you can simply halve the WxH)

otherwise remove this arg to keep the original WidthxHeigh

Other:

threads: number of you cpu

-i source.flv: the input video, can be a flv or any video file (avi, mkv ..)

out.mp4: always keep the .mp4

-b bitrate: 500k to 1000k depend on video size and quality you want

EDIT:

More x264 options for slower encoding:

level=41:weightp=2:me=umh:merange=24:bframes=0:direct=auto:rc-lookahead=60:subme=9:partitions=all:trellis=2
[TouchPad General] gedas5:

can you please give more instructions on how you do it? I tried pasting the code in ffmpeg but it says profile could not be found, or many other errors that i get while playing with code.

could you dumb it down a little... i'd appreciate it...

edit:

i'm now using Handbreak which works ok... just feels slow
[TouchPad General] gedas5:
@ KeKeTTe

the good thing about ffmpeg is that it produces very high quality and small size files using your code, but the problem is that it is very very slow. To convert 1h 35min .mkv movie took about 6 hours. Are you getting the same speed of covertion? Is there any way to make it faster?

By the way i believe that your code is missing part of it to work correctly.

I get it to work only if i add -strict experimental before the output file. So it looks like this:
[TouchPad General] superflysocal:
or just use kalemsoft media player (not free) and play almost all vids w/o reencoding (It has played everything I have thrown at it including high profile mkv's and mp4s that a Asus TF with Tegra2 cannot play. but I am sure there is a video out there that it cannot play so that is why i say almost.)
[TouchPad General] paperWastage:
Touchplayer (via Preware) isn't bad, but i see it uses ffmpeg libs to play, not sure what exactly it supports, but avi/mkv seems fine

Touchplayer got my .mkv's working, But the subtitles were plastered on the video and I could not for the life of me find a way even to shut them off...
[TouchPad General] KeKeTTe:
we only want good mp4 video for full gpu decoding (and 10h of video playing).

the only problem is the slow encoding, it encode at ~ 30 fps on my i5 2 cores :(

so i just use x264opt: level=41:bframes=0

There is a hc port but it isnt work because google wont release the sources..

The port is from luisivan and it stuck with the unlock screen.

All instructions to do so are in a thread created by me in the general section (i think site 2/3):);)

Hey thanks for the welcome , So when inseall the openAOS then what will it enable me to do , Install a new faster Rom ?
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
You can install urukdroid also without the boot menu;)

But with the boot menu you are able to boot multiple OSs (Archos Android,Urukdroid,Cyanogen,Angstrom,Debian,LXDE,...)

If you have a little experience with Linux and android you should setup your boot menu;) but if you just want one fast rom than install urukdroid alone;)

Well ik fine with 2.2 thats on ,but ill have to see after having more of a play, would you say there is alot of differance between stock and fastest rom

[Gen8 General] Lenn:
No you dont need root to get multiboot;)

You need to have the SDE to do so;)

Just flash the initramfs and zImage via boot menu:)

Thanks and so with multi boot on there can i then load a custom rom? Or am i getting confussed

Standart:

Archos

Angstrom

Archos is the normal archos android

Angstrom is the linux distro from the sde,you propably not gonna use it

You can add these:

Debian Linux distro

Cyanogen The best mod for many phones(for us its just the beta!)

Urukdroid the best mod for us at the moment (to add urukdroid to the menu you have to have a little linux knowledge!(look at my thread))

You add the OS's with a image file, it is a single file like *.zip or *.rar ;)

Then you have to edit the menu.lst, this is the boot menu list (lst=list)
