There was only one minor change to initramfs, and modules.

But this is already using the modules built from the source, so not much of a change really.

Yep, I requested that he keep his logo removal only build private.

I don't really want anyone having my kernel w/o the logo, but I can't stop someone from using open source code (the GPL is viral).

I was even nice enough to point him in the right direction to get it done (I'm all for people learning new things).

The point is, If I wanted a nubernel-kernel available to everyone with out Nubernel in it, I would build it and post it myself.

Someone mentioned using pm's, take their hint.

Since my update to 2.3.5 - sense 3.0 I am not able to send any MMS messages anymore. I have checked my setting with the wizards I could find on the Internet (and resetted my device numerous times) but it just doesn't seem to work anymore (Country: Belgium, Operator: Mobile Vikings). Has anyone got any idea of what might be wrong or is anyone experiencing the same problem?
[HTC Desire S] jneapan:
might it be possible that your access point settings were somehow lost? check under settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > access point names and see if they are installed. if not, you'll have to check with your carrier for the proper settings.

if this is not the case, then i have no idea what might be wrong :S

I had already thought about that, and tried to go through the settings again, but that didn't work. I followed all steps that I completed when I initially set up the phone, but this time mms didn't work. I sent a mail to the support of my operator too, I hope that they can help me. Not really a big loss, mms, but I did use it occasionally.

Hi everybody...I'm new to the forum, but have the same problem with some of the new roms for Desire S. For the moment I'm using Miui 2.4.6 and have no problem to send mms and to receive.

Hi,

Does anyone know when/if Skype will arrive on WM 7.......:)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Well, Microsoft now owns Skype, and Microsoft makes WP7 (FYI, because it bugs me a bit, there's no such product as "WM 7"). I believe they've officially announced that there will be a port to Windows Phone, but even if they hadn't announced it I'd take almost any bet you care to make that it's coming.

Now, as for *when* it's coming, I really can't say. It might be an installable app, or it might be baked into an update. It might have the same cost as on the PC (free client, with some extra features that cost), or it might be a paid app, or it might even be a fully-free app for WP7 (though I doubt that, since the MOs would hate it - no need for you to buy phone minutes when you can just SkypeOut to a phone number and if you're on WiFi you wouldn't even pay for data).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThomasRK:

My problem is similar:

I have installed CyanogenMod 7 V7.1.0 (9 Oct 2011), and it works fine about two days until today :-(

After installing 2nd init with bootmenu from market, my phone stucks on boot logo, so I decided to remove 2nd init from 2nd init menu.

I am only able to access the stock recovery!

Now, my phone still stucks on boot logo, I tried to restart phone, but no success.

Also, I tried to flash with RSD Lite, but my PC does not recognizes my phone.

Can anybody help me with this?

Is it possible to flash phone via system recovery by update.zip ?

--> Problem solved by entering into Bootloader Mode and flashing with RSD Lite tool.

Thanks!

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
Is there any way to permanently make the volume rocker control media volume? My PLAY doesn't do calls so it's annoying that it changes the ringer volume when music or games aren't playing. The way I can think of implementing this ability would be to have a service running in the background that tells the phone music is playing even when it's not, as well as having it start on boot. I haven't the slightest clue about app development but this seems it should be a relatively easy task that hopefully wouldn't use too much battery by running though.. Is this a feasible solution that anyone could help with?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sebring5:
For VPN Samsung has partnered with Juniper Networks which offers a safe tunnel through the internet to the company network. The current implementation only works with Junipers own VPN Servers, but future clients will work with Open VPN Servers as well. This is a layer 3 solution, meaning that Juniper can reroute and encrypt all data packages without the knowledge of the app. In the future Juniper will offer a complete Mobile Device Management Solution that allows remote wiping and tracking as well as remote app management. Imagine Angry Birds being disabled on a company phone in work hours. This alone could save some companies millions.

Junipers Software had to be baked in right into Samsungs Firmware to allow this deep integration into Android, which shows how serious Samsung takes it’s move into the enterprise sector.

It's definitely in the USA App Store..

http://www.samsungapps.com/topApps/topAppsDetail.as?productId=G00002056371

See attached screenshot.. I think you MUST set up your store as a USA app store setting, or else it won't show up. Or it may not be changeable if you have a special country phone. This link is for the NOTE, it also supports the newer updated Galaxy W, Tabs and SII.

I just installed it on my Note tonight from the Samsung Apps. Now only if I could figure out how to submit a rating! I was unable to find it in the Samsung Apps app store or on the web site for the Galaxy 8.9" tab I have here though.

Also, if you are rooted, you can put a compatible tun.ko in /mnt/sdcard and Junos Pulse will detect it during startup (you can also manually insmod it and see if it loads properly into your kernel). Since you are doing it this way, JP will prompt you for root permissions, and it will set up the VPN using root. It is not really ideal for permanent use, and nobody would promote rooting a device, but it's a way to support just about any Android device out there, regardless of Android OS limitations..

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _pigro_:
update - I eventually rooted with the chainfire kernel, which DOES have tun.ko. Access to my home LAN via ethernet bridging worked "out of the box" (I now realise that tun.ko supports both tap and tun VPN setups!).

The only thing that wasn't working was getting my internet traffic from the note to route over the tunnel - internet traffic was using the cell network's local gateway when I had openVPN running over 3G. To get this to work, I had to slightly change my server config from that which I originally posted;

I removed the "locl" from push "redirect-gateway locl"; (not 100% sure this made any difference in the end but that's how it currenty is and it's working!)

I then added push "DHCP-option 192.168.0.1" (private IP of my LAN gateway/router)

After that, I managed to get IP traffic to go down the tunnel but it wasn't able to resolve domain names at all. I then used the "fix DNS" option in the openVPN settings on the note to force DNS to google (8.8.8.8) and that got everything working. However it isn't a persistant fix, it needs to be reapplied each time the network connection changes apparently.

I think the full solution involves writing your own custom up/down scripts to be executed on the client. These scripts should read in the foreign_option_n environment variables which openVPN (on non-windows clients) uses to store DNS/Wins etc. settings that are pushed by the server. That way, the DNS stuff would be set correctly each time openVPN starts, without the need to use the fix.

I have spent ages getting to this point so I'm not going to do the script based solution right now - but if/when I get around to trying it, I'll post back my findings.

I do find it strange that this (setting up openVPN to route internet traffic over a secure connection via your home router) isn't discussed much ... Personally, I find it invaluable for

(a) doing anything remotely sensitive (e.g. internet banking) over public WiFi or cellular connections

(b) dealing with location aware websites like iPlayer/4OD which want me to be in the UK before streaming video content to me

(c) piggybacking on my home (static) IP in order to get through customer firewalls which have an exception for my home IP but which I can't access otherwise from the phone.

... so I'm a happy bunny now that I have it more or less working ;-)
