I will try, I do know where it stores the zip file. I was already going to try and do that even though I could never get adb to work in recovery mode, and I know I have to grab it before it reboots and installs it, or it gets deleted. My 3G connection dropped in the middle of the update, so it didn't install. I'm waiting for my tablet to try and get it on its own again. When I go to About and tell it to manually check it says no update available.

I'll let you know if I'm successful.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FadeFx:
You have to get it before it shuts down to install just when it asks you to reboot.

If it got stuck during download you probably need to reboot to start again...

I too got the 2.0 update yesterday as I was leaving my house, so I hit remind me later on the notification because I didn't have time to stay and let it download. Now when I select the update service, it says my tablet is up to date, no update is necessary. WTF? So, I called Vizio tech line and all they did was instruct me to to a factory reset in recovery mode. I did that and still says no update available.

In summary, if it does finally update, I will try and grab the update.zip.

What are the commands for terminal emulator to copy it from cache to my sd?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FadeFx:
I think it should be something like

cp /cache/uli/* /sdcard/uli/

But i could be wrong...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] so_fassa:
My update finally came available again, but I cannot find a way to get to it without root access. Every file manager I use will not show me whats in my cache folder, and I cannot figure out how to get it from terminal. Sorry guys, maybe someone more skilled than I can get the OTA file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dandrumheller:
@Fade,

I have a currently rooted Vtab - I am certainly not even close to a developer, but this just crossed my mind and I thought to run it by you guys here to get your input on it;

If I were to unfreeze the vtab updater software (currently frozen with TiBu) and see if I could download the update - assuming that I could - would it work to re-freeze the updater before rebooting after the download and avoid the update actually installing? From there could I dig a copy of it out and get it to you guys?

I haven't gone through the OTA update process at all with the VTAB, so I don't know if there is any way to get back to normal operation after the download, or if it is a one way trip to reboot/install update.

TBH I'm not overly concerned with losing root on my VTAB - I want to keep it if possible - but if this plan has some reasonable chance of working, I'd be willing to risk it if I could get the firmware to someone who might be willing and able to get a rooted version going for others...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FadeFx:
Just move all content from /cache/uli/ to your sdcard and use TiBu to freze the updater service again. In this case you could even reboot before freezing because the recovery wont find the update where it expects it.

Alright - I'll try to find some time tonight after my daughter is in bed to give this a shot.

Any chance you lurk around IRC somewhere I could give you a holler if I run into trouble? I'll probably make the attempt sometime around 8PM EDT/midnight GMT.

Edit: Ok, got everything set up, made sure I had good ADB access, defrosted the updater service, and requested a check for update. I got the popup for the VIA 1.5 mandatory update. This did not sit well with me, as I understand the HC update should be to VIA 2.0. My fear here is that I will actually GET the 1.5 update if I make an update attempt, in which case I will lose root, and be unable to pull the 2.0 update when I get that.

My plan at this point is to occasionally check to see if the available update changes to VIA 2.0 at some point rather than 1.5. Perhaps I just haven't gotten the update pushed to me yet. Has anyone gotten a request to update directly to 2.0 from 1.4? Or are the updates required to be done sequentially for some reason?

P.S. Jerry Hildenbrand of Android Central just posted a pic of his VTab updating to 2.0 about an hour ago on G+. I asked him if he could/had grabbed a copy of the OTA before updating, but he had not, as his VTab wasn't rooted - he did say he tried though!

Edit 2: After rebooting the VTab and again manually checking for an update, I got a more generic popup message indicating an OTA update was available. Said nothing about VIA 1.5. I went ahead and downloaded it, copied 2 files out of /cache/ULI (update.zip, 123.xx MB and uli.txt) to the SD card and then deleted the files from /cache/ULI. Another reboot of the VTab did not result in a software update, so I'm certainly no worse off than before this little exercise...

Strangely, my PC would only show a couple of folders on the SD card from the VTab (either in WinVista or Ubuntu 10.04) so rather than try to troubleshoot why that is, I am uploading the update.zip and uli.txt files to my dropbox over a painfully slow 1Mbps connection from the VTab. I'll get you guys a link to the dropbox folder sometime tomorrow, but I have to get to bed, I have a half-day training session at 7am tomorrow, which means I have to be up earlier than I would like to get there in time, so I'm going to bed while this thing uploads. I really hope someone can do something with it...

Edit 3: Ahhhhh, screw it, it's almost done uploading. Link to dropbox shortly...

OK, here they are - be gentle please :-)

[Galaxy Tab General] tjjpowles:
Hi Guys

I am trying to decide on switching from my 64GB 3G iPad 1 to a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and was hoping you could give me some feedback?

Basically, I have been something of an Apple user for the last few years, but have recently gotten an SGS2 which I just love....way more than my iPhone 4S!

As the iPad 1 is now a little old, and quite a heavy beast, I am thinking of going for a 10.1 instead. I can only really afford a 16GB one (with 3G), so would plan to get a SD card adapter for playing bigger files.

Any thoughts you guys have would be great!

Cheers

http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html

Section: Initializing a Repo client.

It reads:

A successful initialization will end with a message stating that Repo is initialized in your working directory.

Instead every time it finishes it says it has initialized in my home directory. I have cded and executed repo from the WORKING_DIRECTORY. This means repo tries to download into my home folder which is unacceptable. Thus, I cannot continue. I have had this working before to at least download into the bin folder, but I cannot remember how to do that now.

Thanks for the help.

edit:

I fixed the problem by renaming .repo in the home folder to .repo.old. Now repo downloads into the folder that I choose. No doubt I am still going to have problems with this build somewhere along the way.

[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Has anyone implemented pattern unlock on the KF yet?

I thought perhaps Widgetlocker had that capability, but when I looked on my Dinc which already has it, there did not appear to be any settings for it.

Using a pattern is a lot easier then a pin code.

If it matters, I'm rooted.

really think pattern unlock needed. widgetlocker keeps crashing (and it isn't pattern recognition).
[Kindle Fire General] RawRmon:
App Protector Pro

I was also wondering the same thing. I went tot he market to see if there was something. The only thing that came close was this called App protector pro, while it doesn't provide a lock pattern for your screen, it does provide it for any app. All my apps that have sensitive data or files that I don't want prying eyes to see, I lock with the App protector. It makes it so that a pattern lock needs to be done before launching the app. I just downloaded it and it rocks, plus it's on $1.50, it won't dent your wallet.:D

They also have a free version, but as you can imagine, it is add heavy. I wen't ahead and purchased the pro.

It might not be exactly what we are looking for, but if privacy and security is something you are concerned about, I definitely recommend it for the time being.
[Kindle Fire General] labyrinthian:
Less privacy/security issues and more of keeping the sticky fingers of an eight year old off of it until I'm ready to let him on.

Especially since smudgey fingers can give away pattern locks unless a person is real careful.
[Kindle Fire General] RawRmon:
Very true.

Have you tried just using the regular lock-screen password with the numbers? I had it on mine, but I just didn't like it.

Perhaps it'll work for the time being, to keep your 8 year old away from it.
[Kindle Fire General] labyrinthian:
Yes, have been using lockscreen with keyboard... poor sensitivity, have to keep reentering due to big finger complex when I'd rather go swish swish swish.

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

OH! I see now!

Hitting your people app lists everyone, just like it's suppose to do. However if you hit your dialer button, it will give you JUST the list of contacts you have that has phone numbers.

It's pretty cool that way, you technically have two contact lists. One list that shows everyone and all of their status updates, etc. You can modify that list and remove people and choose to only show certain labels, etc.

However when you click your dialer icon, it gives you the list of contacts that only have numbers and functions pretty much the same way you're accustomed too except with the new improved features of ICS (like frequently called). Now that I know, I absolutely love it!

Hope this helps you too!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp13:
yea i figured it out.

So in the beginning all of my contacts showed together (emails, numbers, etc)...

so if you want to view the phone numbers only:::

1) open contacts

2) settings

30 contacts view >> select your Google account and choose ok ( this will change to custom view and it will fix it by it self)

so when you view contacts at top it would say custom view...

thats it. PM me if its confusing

In my opinion, although it can match the nexus in terms of hardware (maybe even better), I buy the phone for the user experience. Ice cream sandwich, likely to have a huge developer base, first-hand updates from google, hardware-software integration, first device to have ics, form factor, and unlocked bootloader all make this a more worthy phone than almost any other phone ever made.
