What a dumb conclusion! It is definitely still to early for me.

Of course - when you simlink the /data/dalvik-cache to /cache/dalvik-cache, the files are moved to the /cache/dalvik-cache, but as they are symlinked, the file system shows them as present on /data/dalvik-cache.

Dalvik is not double presented on the Phone.

Run the command in Terminal or adb:

adb shell
df -h

This is the result:

As you can see on the screenshot, the Dalvik cache is bounded to /cache partition, and it shows identical values for the /cache and /data/dalvik-cache partitions.

The /data partition itself has completely different values.

@ OP - this can also be achieved with the far simpler script, that I'm using:

#!/system/bin/sh
#
# relocate dalvik-cache to /cache/dalvik-cache

if [ ! -d /cache/dalvik-cache ]
then
busybox rm -rf /cache/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache
mkdir /cache/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache
fi

busybox chown 1000:1000 /cache/dalvik-cache
busybox chmod 0771 /cache/dalvik-cache

# create symlink
busybox mount -o bind /cache/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache
busybox chown 1000:1000 /data/dalvik-cache
busybox chmod 0771 /data/dalvik-cache

I'm gonna include this in my next MIUI ROM.

I have not tried this, but it appears to do the same thing.

There is also another app called Skifta that is DLNA certified as a streaming app.

androidcommunity dor com slash skifta-dlna-certified-free-easy-streaming-with-an-android-remote-20110202

It says it has been around since 2009... Apple isn't all that innovative after all, only very good at marketing.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AlexTheStampede:
Horrible at marketing, not very good.

From the tv ads I tought it was their renaming of DLNA (laaaaame), but this is incredibly cool and completely different! Aside from that the PS3 had DLNA support in 2007 already, so it's even older even if I'm not sure how much.

DLNA offers you to stream multimedia files (video, pictures, music) to a compatible reciever, but that's all. You wouldn't be able to watch video from an app like Hulu and so on, just files you have on your device. Also, nothing like seeing on a tv (passing through a special device like Apple TV, true) the game/app you are using at the moment, if it was just DLNA. It's closer to a wireless HDMI transmitter/reciever, but it costs way less than that!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dburckh:
Airplay has been around for a while. It is similar to UPNP/DNLA.

Anyway, Airplay is an RTSP variant with DRM. It's been reverse engineered, and there is an a freeware C lib for it. The biggest advantage to Airplay is that it probably had tighter standards. UPNP allows pretty much anything, which means you end up with a lot of cross device format compatibility issues.

I haven't seen a lot of really good uses for either. DNLA is kind of fun to DJ with and maybe should pictures/videos from your phone. I think a really cool app would be to take the SD card from my camera and send the pictures to a TV. You can kind of do this, but I haven't seen anything real slick.

If you have a device that supports AirPlay/DNLA, it likely that it can already do whatever you need to through that device and use your phone/tablet as a remote (This is how I use my Onkyo TX-NR509). The problem is that both protocols rely on a wireless network, which is susceptible to drop outs.

FYI: You should check out iMediaShare. It's pretty impressive (I'm not sure it works on Transformer, it's really geared more toward phones).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mb02:
How about a cheaper, more efficient, more universal solution transformer owners can already utilize: HDMI mirroring...

WiDi (if it ever becomes standardized) will then blow airplay/DLNA out of the water anyways and only requires a firmware update in existing WiFi modules.

I have gingerbread on my evo 4g....

I'm in the process of trying to root my EVO solely to gain WIFI tethering access for my new TV.

I've read tutorials about rooting here and there over the past year but never felt like i quite got it, so i didn't do it. Well I decided to try it out with this guide:

it won't let me post the url, but it's the one on goodandevo for gingerbread

Everything went well with this process up until the Nandroid backup. I backed up I guess my current stock ROM?(although I don't know where to find it??) I then downloaded the "Wireless-N bug fix" rom and stuck it on my SD card. I then flashed it through my boot screen, then selected the zip......

and here is where i'm at:

1. booted into my phone, it looks completely unchanged(stock rom). HOWEVER, wifi antenna quit working.

2. i went into the boot screen and "s-off" shows so something worked?

3. when i try to install the wifi tethering, it says i'm not rooted.

OBVIOUSLY i'm doing something wrong. the article mentions Amon Ra Recovery as well as PC36IMG.zip and being the noob that i am as it relates to rooting, these mean nothing to me. any help is appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If you boot into recovery from the bootloader, do you see clockwork or a triangle and red ! ? If you see the latter, you have no recovery, and the amon_ra recovery can be found in the the development section [type it in the search], where you will get the PC36IMG and instructions on how to flash it. Then you can flash the zip in recovery. Also, if you download wireless tether from the market [free] you'll be set to tether.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
i went into my bootloader and then recovery. the screen went to the "white HTC EVO" screen, then it loaded into a REVOLUTIONARY screen with this menu

-reboot system now

-apply update from sd card

-wipe data/factory reset

etc.

so you're saying a need the amon-RA and the pc36img.zip? will this fix the wifi antenna problem too? thx again for your help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I believe the revolutionary is a form a clockwork and you CAN flash your wifi zip now, but you may get an error about amend scripting, ect. And amon_ra will be in the PC36IMG that you flash in the bootloader. From there, you will flash your zip, and you should be good.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
i have now flashed 4.24.651.1-802.11n-fix-signed.zip twice from my REVOLUTIONARY recovery screen and it says it loaded successfully, but still won't load apps requiring root, AND wifi is still broken =(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
The first part sounds like you don't have superuser installed, or the binaries didn't flash; it happened while I rooted a friend's thunderbolt.

1. download and install superuser from the market

2. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=682828 < download and flash the second zip in recovery [the froyo/eclair]

3. go into the superuser app, tap settings, then hit update, and it should be working

And the wifi broke after you flashed the zip?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
ok. i flashed the pc36img.zip file and updated. also then reflashed the 4.24.651.1-802.11n-fix-signed.zip and WIFI radio still isn't working??

super bummer
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I would recommend restoring your original backup, because it seems that the zip file broke your wifi, that's when it stopped working correct? Or try flashing a new stock rooted rom of that same firmware and try it again, because I'm sure the wifi driver was under attack.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
ok tech roxxx. thx. can i restore to my original rom after being rooted? i've never restored, how is that done? i went into bootloader and then recovery, then restore and chose nandroid restore. it said it couldn't find the file?

stuff is confusing sometimes.

also, now that i placed the pc36img.zip on sd root file, everytime i go into bootloader it ask's if i want to update. is it okay to move that file? delete it? what's the way of handing it, and any other zip files for that matter in the root sd?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Sorry, I had to run out. That would be he correct method to restore. Though to handle the PC36IMG, you can delete it, or rename it to somethign else like PC36IMG_amon, so you know what it is for future use, if you ever had to flash the recovery again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
still no wifi? i tried restoring but it said it couldn't find the file?

tried flashing a new radio, but it still won't start up the wifi?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
You should have a folder on your sdcard for backup... Not sure what revolutionary calls it... But it has to be there unless you moved it or anything. The recovery looks for an exact folder with exact file names so if anything changed it won't work.

On the wireless n fix, you shouldn't have flashed that as I believe wireless n is already a part of gingerbread... May be wrong but I never had to flash it. All you will need is wifi tether app from market.

At this point you may have to do a full wipe and flash a new ROM, granted you will lose all your data. However you can flash the new Sprint update, which I am on now and it is quite smooth.

Be sure your contacts are backed up to Google. If you have apps you want backed up get Titanium backup. Emails and texts will be gone, though i'm sure there is a way i've never really cared.

Grab this:

Wipe everything in recovery except sdcard then flash the .zip you download from that link.

You will still have a mostly stock Evo but it's rooted with superuser already installed. Then get wireless tether app from the market.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
thank you i'm her old man. i'm going to try what you've said now. i'll post back with results. as for my back up? i'm not sure where it went, and as long as it doesn't mess my phone up, i'm going to clean up my sd card a tad too. i don't think it will harm anything. never should have flashed that rom, goodandevo made it sound benign.

thanks again tho.

**UPDATE**

i downloaded titanium backup and i get an error that "superuser" has forced closed. something is a miss? i'm more than frustrated. i'm really not concerned with email's/contacts since they're all cloud based. what's the easiest way to get a clean root like what you have?? at this point i'd probably drive over my phone if someone said that's what it took....=/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
in recovery it says:

wipe ALL usuerdata/factory reset

wipe cache

wipe SDCARD (don't wipe this i right)

wipe boot

wipe system

wipe SDCARD (don't wipe this)

wipe SDEXT

wipe DATA: batttery

i'm afraid to wipe "boot" and "system" those sound important. but i'm just doing what you've mentioned.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Yea you need those to boot into the system. Did you flash the rooted stock rom he linked you to, as that would be a quick fix.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
Do wipe those they will be replaced when you flash the new ROM
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsny:
BAAaaaaRICK!

i wiped them and it bricked my phone. luckily the manager at sprint was uber nice and gave me a replacement since i'd been a longtime customer.

i guess i have no business rooting my phone if i don't understand the process. i figured i'd root it now since evo 4g probably won't be getting anymore MAJOR android updates? but....maybe i should leave this one be.

are there any close to fail safe guides for "rooting for dummies?"
