[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Zigec:
I have recently installed windows 7 on my hd2...everything works fine except for WIFI and 3G connection. it finds my wifi connection but says that it is out of reach, even when I'm standing near router. It also states that the password is incorrect, but on my iPod it works fine.3G connection logo doesn't even appear.

I've been searching throughout forum for solution to this problem but I find none (maybe I've missed something) and I'm no expert on fixing this. I've tried to remove SD card, restart and put it back but it still doesn't work.

So I am asking if someone could help me solve this problem.

Thank you! :)

I Just received the leather flip case from Ebay. It's really cheap i got mine for 1 pound. For 1 pound it looks really premium.

Inside has a soft touch and feeling, so your screen is safe. It fits really nice and won't come off easy. i can access all the buttons with ease no problem there. The flip snaps with a magnet so loving that one. The only bad thing for now is that it makes the phone look really long :D.

Any question, just ask
[Galaxy S II Accessories] TheDarkAngel666:
Have you tried the extended battery?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] commodoor:
It won't fit. The case grabs the phone from top and left and right on the bottom. The extra big battery wouldn't make it fit :(. The size is perfect fit for the stock size.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MamaSaidWhat?:
£1? :O

That's crazy. I've never trusted these cheap "leather" cases (bad experience with my Desire HD) but if you're saying this is good then I may be tempted to invest :D

Can you confirm that you can remove the phone from the casing that holds the phone (attached to leather-y material) with ease?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Accessories] okmijnlp:
I have one of these but in black, I also have two plastic cases. The only problem is that I never use them. I've became so accustomed to the ultra-thin design of the sgs2 that when I put a case onto it it feels like I'm holding a brick. But, I've gotta say, it is very nice. Also another problem is that if you keep putting the case on and removing it it can damage the side buttons, one of my volume buttons is the slightest bit weaker now.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] commodoor:
inside the leather case there is a hard case that's snaps the phone. it's really easy to put in in and also to take out. You have to put some little pressure from the top and it pops out.

Like I said it has a great quality for 1£ it's not premium leather but it works well.

I agree on the bulk thing. It makes the phone little bigger but it still looks great.

What do you mean with the volume buttons? The buttons don't touch the case at all. there is a small gap between the case and the volume button.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Wiggy Fuzz:
if i'd known about this case i would have tried it first over the samsung official leather case. the official one clamps so tight that after a few removal cycles the bottom section of my phone creaks :(

which is unfortunate because it fits so well. (another downside, however, was the hole for the headphone jack was very small, so large fat jacks wouldn't fit...)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] okmijnlp:
I mean when removing the case, it's quite tight isn't it? So when you take it off the opposing side (opposing to the side that you're removing) puts a lot of pressure on the other side. so that when you move the case down so that the plastic interacts with the buttons (power or volume) it puts a lot of pressure on them. sorry if that made no sense I couldn't really think of a way to explain it.

It means your superuser app is not the most current version. TBH do not update it a lot of people are having problems when they update
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
It updates your binary to stay update so the app will work. No issues with the update. if you don't update, you'll have to accept a app using SU each time, because it won't be stored if the binary is outdated.
[EVO 4G General] George M:
Thanks all.

That explains why I couldn't use the "Update all" button.

[EVO 4G General] CIROC the GEEK:
SU outdated Binaries issue solved

update your Superuser application to version3.1

and optional is to install SuperSU application.

this worked great for the Samsung Galaxy class including the Samsung Stratosphere SCH-I405

I tested this myself on 3 phones. The update notice went away. and all apps requesting superuser access functioned within

specified parameters.

I still haven't figured out the "unable to scan for networks" issue yet. If anyone has any pointers... I would love to hear them.

if you cant find the app I'll be glad to send a copy via email.

Good luck and hope it works out as it did for me.

[Android Software Development] ieftm:
Hello!

We would like to announce the public availability of the root exploit we use in Revolutionary, named zergRush.

This local root exploit should be Android-wide, across Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbread (2.3). However, this will not work on Android Honeycomb and up (3.0+).

Simultaneously, we're also releasing source code for this root exploit through our github.

The binary is available from here: zergRush binary.

The exploit source is available here: Revolutionary GitHub.

Usage:

You will need adb shell to execute this exploit. We need shell permissions.

Push the binary onto /data/local/ and execute these commands in a shell:

$ chmod 755 /data/local/zergRush
$ /data/local/zergRush

The resulting output should look something like this:

Reboot?

It worked in my HTC Chacha. Then I remounted System as rw. And then after a while(about 30 secs), my device reboots.

I tried it twice, after deleting /data/local/tmp/*

Is it normal? My device is S-ON.

Edited: I found it, it is because I modified the system partition, because after reboot it was as before.

Thank you.

Yeah, here's how:

adb shell rm -r /data/local/tmp/*
adb push zergRush /data/local/tmp/zergRush
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/zergRush

It's not work on my SAMSUNG GT-I9108 usually, but it works if I play 'Birzzle' at same time. I don't know why, can't explain it ....

edit: it's android 2.3.4
[Android Software Development] ClearD:
I've got a motorola device (MotoACTV) running android 2.3.4. The rush works, and gets to the end, where "it's a GG man!" is displayed, however the device restarts after this, but restarts to a black screen. It doesn't boot all the way, and I can't keep root. Is there something special I should do in the code?

Here's part of what I've got, if someone can review it for me:

echo Pushing exploit to device...

adb push zergRush /data/local/tmp

echo Granting permissions to exploit...

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/zergRush

echo Running exploit. This could take a few minutes, please be patient.

adb shell /data/local/tmp/zergRush

adb remount

echo Pushing su...

adb push su /system/bin

adb push su /system/xbin

It never gets to the "pushing su".

Instead of "adb remount", I've also tried "adb shell mount -t ext3 -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk1p18 /system", but that also doesn't work. Can anyone assist? :)

There is a superuser thread with a zip file containing the apk and su.

Once you get a root shell, exit adb and then adb remount

Then push Superuser.apk to /system/app and push su to /system/bin. Then back into adb shell:

chmod 644 /system/app/Superuser.apk

chmod 4755 /system/bin/su

Reboot and hope that it worked! :-)
