[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ksandarusi:
I have been recently trying to get OpenVPN to work with my Samsung Galaxy S 4G t959v.

One of the problems I ran into was the lack of a tun module (tun.ko?). So I proceeded to install the Bali v3.3 Kernel by Dr. Honk.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1080871

After I flashed my android with this kernel. I double checked to make sure it worked and sure enough the kernel version was the new Bali Kernel. However, I still didn't have the proper TUN Capability that it specifically lists as a feature in the kernel.

I was wondering, did I actually install the Bali Kernel unsuccessfully but it just said it was actually in the system. I checked in lib/modules and tun.ko was not to be found.

(I came to the conclusion I needed this module through the error that I was receiving from OpenVPN and quite a few google searches of it: "FATAL:Cannot allocate TUN/TAP dev dynamically")

Anyway, I did all sorts of stupid crap to try and make it work, but I still can't find a way to do this. I'm under the understanding I can't really take a tun.ko file from another kernel (At least that is what I have read, but I may just be flat out wrong). Does anyone have any ideas?

Apologies for the long post, however I at least used some proper english! :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] bstylz911:
I was wondering who was using gingebread or miui

And why

I was on Ginger but I switched to miui

Like the interface better
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I love MIUI but with ICS buzz, I'm going with CM7 and a ICS theme.

MIUI got too buggy for me. I haven't tried the new updates in fear I will love it too much.

LG G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Asus Transformer - 3.7 Revolver OC/UV
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
CM7, only because MIUI on the G2x isn't exactly the most stable. I was spoiled with the MIUI on the MT4G, thing was a beast and never had any bugs.

The MIUI on the G2x is good for the most part, but gets slow and has bugs here and there that bothers me so I'm happy with CM7.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Zenroy:
I use Miui now and it seems pretty stable. I choose miui because it just looks really nice and runs soo smoooth.

--> Miui and Cm7 are both very good roms.. you should try out both to see what's best for you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bstylz911:
Weird cm made my phone freeze and i had to reboot alot
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Depends on what CM version you use. You also need to properly factory reset your phone, clear caches, etc because CM7 is a different beast entirely. Coming from other roms, especially stock roms such as Weapon, it is especially important to do the proper flashing techniques or you WILL run into problems.

That said, MIUI should be better now. I dropped off months ago when only Whitehawk was developing for it (aka just porting the latest version). Now we actually have devs focusing on MIUI for the G2x and trying to work out the kinks. It should be much better now.

MIUI isn't as compatible as CM7 with apps and such. More apps will not work on MIUI vs Stock or CM7. Most do, but this is something to expect if you run MIUI and your favorite app won't launch.

I had too much fun with MIUI though. Always changing my lockscreen type, always themeing, changing this and that. Gets addicting.

MIUI is different and most people get turned off by the iPhone-like launcher. But throw ADW EX or Go Launcher and you'll love it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
I started with a Cm7 rom and ics theme and then went to miui recently. Theres an ics theme for it too.

Using the galnet ics version that whitehawk ported over. Miui is different and at first I didn't like it, but I spent a day or two with it and I grew to like it. I think I just wanted something different since ics is a ways off.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] HarveyStyles:
Miui

I hated Miui when I first installed it, my phone would boot loop after calls that weren't answered, random reboots throughout the day, and it was a major battery hog. That was about 3 months ago.

I have it installed now and I love it. I have no problems at all with it, save about a 1 minute warm up time for an accurate lock on gps. Coupled with Juice defender and Launcher Pro, I get all the battery I need, and an app drawer with mods that rock!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
love miui. been using whitehawk builds since he started and have no problems with stability, performance, or compatibility. I prolly wont even flash ics when we finally get it because its so hard to give up the level of customization miui offers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] littlecarlos:
I agree but now they have a ics miui can wait to they get on the g2x or o2x ethier way we can get it :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
yup. hope current themes will be compatible or updated quickly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] uploder:
miui all day with a touch of an ICS theme. The customization of MIUI is just unparalleled at this point. The ONLY bug with the current build of MIUI that urked me was when you connect your phone via usb to a pc it sometimes freezes/randomly reboots. But with wifi explorer this issue is easily bypassed. All in all i still love it :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hendawg1983:
MIUI all the way. ICS will be on it today
[T-Mobile LG G2x] -deuces-:
I have had that bug too and I'm on a Samsung vibrant.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
are you saying that will be on the G2X today? just confused, but if so I'm backing my phone up now lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Probably means "one day". I know MIUI was already using some of the ICS source files but since they are based off CM7 kernel, one would think CM9 would have to be out first.

EDIT

Looks like pics have surfaced of MIUI running on top of ICS and the source was annouced... I don't think this means it will come out for the G2x today. Supposedly it is based off the CM9 kernel with hardware acceleration enabled.

Ya I saw those last night, that's why I was curious. I'm guessing things will be happening next week. It'd be sweet for today but I have my doubts.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bstylz911:
With so many cm roms coming out it's still hard to go back to cm from miui
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
I'd use MIUI if it was as stable as CM is on this phone. MIUI is a great ROM, but i always fall back to CM7 after sometime.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bstylz911:
I've been using miui for a few days and I must say it's pretty stable.loving the camera as well.OVERALL switching from a mytouch4g I really miss Sense

[T-Mobile LG G2x] HookedonHD:
Miui

I just installed the latest Miui with ICS today. It looks awesome but it's the same ringtone! i went into the settings changed all the rintones, sms, and notification however, it's stuck on the same alarm sounding ringtone?! GPS doesn't work right i went into the settings for that too and set it to 3.us.pool.ntp.org and it doesn't show the location correctly. Moreover, sms auto complete for us English does not work either as if there is no dictionary installed?! It looks awesome but it needs a lot of work in my opinion.

^ for changing ringtones try going into themes >customize>ringtone. Changing it from the contact doesnt seem to do it.

hello, am new to forum and have come to seek help.

Yesterday I was updating my i9000b galaxy and how the process caught in odin decided to pull the USB cable (complete nonsense).

now he will not turn over, I tried to reboot, put in download mode and nothing works.

the phone turned off and not connected by anything, not the error screen appears, display and lights off completely!

I did a jig with usb tutorials I have seen here in the forum and does not work.

what can I do? my phone is fixed?

appreciate the help!

@EDIT

I put the phone into the outlet to load and it gets very hot.

with the battery cell in this state takes charge?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gblinckmann:
I've contacted Sprint about four times so are for this problem and I'm looking for ideas. When I roam onto Verizon's network, I get voice and text, but no data services. I have an everything data family package, so I have data services. My wife's E4GT does exactly the same thing. The settings on the phones have domestic roaming data enabled. All we get are triangle icons warning us of no data services. This doesn't sound like the LoS issue people are describing. Has anyone else seen this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chumba8:
I havent had any issues my phones data works while roming
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gblinckmann:
I have this feeling that this won't turn out to be a phone problem. Something in the back of my mind is just screaming that it's a provisioning error, even though the Sprint techs don't see one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chumba8:
Very well could be I know my 3vo tripped out the other day and lost 4g and sprint was a retard about that too so i am going to flash it to factory and get a replacment I would try that with the e4gt I get 4g and 3g while roaming and i roam off and on a lot with no issues OH YEAH wait i had the SAME problem with either my 3vo or my e4gt i dont remember and it was a provision thing it did take many calls to cust service to fix but they fixed it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lopezpm:
Yeah, I'm having the exact same issue.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ghost117:
So I just broke my contract with T-Mobile because I was fed up with them and came over to Sprint. The nice people at the store promised me that I would have service and WiMax at home and at work, but sadly it is not looking great right now.

At home the phone is roaming the whole time, which is ridiculous because that means I am limited to 300mb of data a month and it is slow data at that. At work I have the same problem and don't even get roaming data.

So I was wondering what the recommendation would be here. I've rooted my e4gt but have not torched the modem yet. Is it worth while to try to flash a different modem (EK02 maybe) and see if that helps, knowing that I will not be able to flash back to EG30? Will flashing a different modem be any sort of problem if I try to return the phone?

Or am I completely screwed and have to go crawling back to T-mo?

Thanks,
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Actually if you are roaming at home all of the time, Sprint will probably give you a free Airrave. It acts as a mini tower.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ghost117:
yeah. I've heard that, and its cute. But there is a bigger problem of work, which is where I spend most of my day, and actually class (where I also have only roaming). Actually I have roaming inside almost all buildings even those they are supposed to have excellent service there. Basically, the service all over is starting to really bother me, and if I have to put up with roaming forever I may just have to leave Sprint. The question is more of a, will playing with radios/modems help or will it actually hurt me when I have to return the device?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
LOL. If you can find a Sprint employee who is savvy enough to even know what a radio/modem is chances are he will have all the sympathy in the world for you.

That said, if you plan on keeping the device I would not **** with the modem. It's worth a shot, but, that won't help your 4G woes. You can tweak your signal level connect threshold and release timers, but, that'll won't help you get a signal you currently can't get at all...it'll only help you keep a signal you can usually get.

If you are in the 14 day window abort abort abort. You've given it a valiant effort, and that is to be applauded. Sprint service is amazing in some places and almost nonexistent in others. If your only problem is 4G, well, sorry...the tiny little slice of spectrum allotted to Sprint/Clear's WiMax sucks. That will never get better. I gave up on it...thankfully the 3G is getting better every day around here. I thought about going Vzn or Tmob, but, I use too much data for that to be affordable. Especially if it's that much faster. It would get that much more expensive and I'd get that much more screwed that much harder that much sooner.

Pick your service provider first--based on the service you want and the service they have at the prices they provide. Pick your device secondarily.

(I also think the AirRave is weak sauce)

You did your best, you tried your hardest. You can't win every one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ghost117:
Yeah Thanks. I am in kind of a bind now though. I paid $800 to break my contract with Tmo because Amazon was giving away 1cent phones which would save me the same 800 on 4 lines. Now that sprint fell though, and verizon's phone selection blows I feel like I just wasted $800...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
Verizon has nexus no??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ghost117:
Verizon will have nexus eventually but not yet, and that means for the next while I am stuck without any phones at all...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
A new modem can improve coverage consistency, but it is not likely to give your coverage where coverage did not exist previously, that requires new towers.

IN ANY CASE, DO NOT FLASH ANY MODEM OTHER THATN EK02 UNLESS YOU LIKE NOT GETTING OS UPDATES.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
While a safe bet that's not entirely accurate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Lol sometimes it is better to over exaggerate, otherwise people don't listen and end up posting in 20 threads "why is this update failing?"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Maybe someone will want to buy it or do a trade+cash so you wont feel like its a total loss. I have heard some horror stories about Sprint's network but damn it seems like its been a total bust for you which is unfortunate since you paid $800 to get out of old contract
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ralexand:
You paid $800 for an early termination fee?!
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Okay, so this is a doozy. I recently got a Droid3 to replace my original Droid. I've had it for less than 3 months. Its been rooted using Pete's One Click Root for this entire time without any issues.

Last week the following symptoms manifested:

1) Most applications, including system applications, force close constantly.

2) I'm usually unable to run any applications, including the Market.

3) What applications are having issues is not consistent.

4) The phone will reboot itself randomly, sometimes constantly.

5) Sometimes after a reboot it gives me no service and has the "Touch Android to begin" screen again. The phone is completely unusable when it does this, and the only fix is to pull the battery and then its back to its previous state.

5) Any changes made to the phone do not survive a reboot.

This last one is the real kicker. I can go through, uninstall every application I've ever downloaded but if you restart the phone or it restarts itself they will all return. This goes for everything on my Internal Storage. The SDCard seems unaffected...

I tried the SBF trick here from rootzwiki. (can't link since I'm new)

This did not work. How it failed might be important:

1) The primary method (psouza4's) acts like its successful but doesn't actually do anything.

2) RSDLite method will fail in step 3 (mbmloader.bin) every time, no matter what fastboot file I try to use.

3) After doing RSDLite I had the "flashboot flash failed" error and the phone was unusable. I then tried psouza4's method again and my phone has reverted to the same broken state it was in when I started.

So I'm not at all sure what I can do here. Since the bootloader isn't cracked yet I have no means to load another ROM. The only method I can find for Droid3 is through a Marketplace app that, on the rare instances I can install it, force closes immediately!

Any advice or ideas at all would be nice.

As for what started this, only two things happened out of the normal phone usage:

1) My girlfriend tried to text me a picture for the first time (of some chairs she wanted to buy for those curious/suggestive :P) which never got to me initially but when it finally did after the 4th attempt I was never able to download the image.

2) I put a PDF file on the Internal Storage. Its one I've had for years and its just some manual I needed mobile and I don't have a laptop. Confirmed its malware free as far as any software can tell.

Working theory is I unplugged my phone from the USB too quickly after uploading the file but I don't know for sure. Nothing else was done unless Verizon had a OTA update that would break a rooted phone (guessing not since no one else seems to have this issue anywhere).

Again, any help someone can provide would be excellent. I'm going to have to load up my broken Droid in the mean time. Keyboard doesn't work and the touchscreen is failing but it can take calls more reliably than my Droid3 currently!
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
I can say a couple words to describe my reaction.. OH ****. Your phone seems to have too many problems to be software related. Try to flash back to stock 5.6.890 and get a new phone. :P
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Hmm, I guess for the mean time I'll just have to keep trying to get the Marketplace ROM Manager to install and launch. Should be a way to install straight to the SDCard that doesn't have problems.

Thinking it over, my Internal Storage may just have a bad sector... Yeesh.
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
Have you tried formatting /system in mounts and storage in CWM? Then reinstalling a fresh rom on top?
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Negative. I didn't have CWM installed (stock ROM just rooted for certain apps) and apps are usually crashing now.

I'll give that a shot though. Sometimes I can use an app so maybe if I'm persistent...
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
and to verify, you are using the verizon droid 3 xt862? Are you on 5.5.959 or 5.6.890 (or possibly 5.7.894)?
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Yea can't get any new apps to run. Interestingly, the camera app seems to crash the OS at the moment.

I think I'm going to have to try to RMA...
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Its running 5.6.890. Unless I'm mistaken its the xt862. I've only had it since September.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
well as long as root isnt showing and the /system hasnt been changed from stock rom, it should work. i do find it bad that rsd didnt work. i wonder if you were trying to flash the .959 sbf on your .890 system? I would def try again to sbf and wipe data/cache through stock recovery after that using volume buttons (android!)
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Well, that's kind of the problem. Changes don't survive a reboot so i haven't been able to unroot the phone. I double checked and the file was the .890 flashboot. Wiping data/cache literally does nothing.

Is there a way to format this offline, from a PC? Going to try some more Google searches...
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
wiping data/cache should erase all of your saved data and force you to *228. Make sure USB debugging is on, set usb to Charge Only, try petes motorola tools to unroot but using RSD 5.5 fastboot .890 found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255198
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
1) How do you unroot with Pete's motorola tools? Is it a different version than the one click root? Cause that's how I rooted my phone in the first place but it doesn't seem to have an option to unroot...

2) The link for the flashboot file gives a 404 error. The attached .RAR only has the .XML file.

Any place else I can get that version?
[Motorola Droid 3] jellydroid13:
just enter stock recovery by holding down the x key on the keyboard when you boot up and wipe data

Edit: srry didnt read the full post
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
If you read the original post, that doesn't work.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Okay so I had an outdated version of Pete's tools which is why I didn't see the unroot option. Mine is the older one that was a batch file, not a application.

Got that sorted out and it still doesn't work. Seems I may have some permissions issues:

> su
> /system/xbin/su
> mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
> if [ -e /data/local/12m.bak ];
> then
> rm /data/local/12m.bak
> fi
> exit
> exit
shell@cdma_solana:/$ su
exit
exit
exit
Permission denied
shell@cdma_solana:/$ /system/xbin/su
Permission denied
shell@cdma_solana:/$ mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
mount: Operation not permitted
shell@cdma_solana:/$ if [ -e /data/local/12m.bak ];
> then
> rm /data/local/12m.bak
> fi
shell@cdma_solana:/$ exit
(success)

That's part of the ADB log. There are a lot of other permission denied messages, which is a little comforting. The only thing I could think of that happened is permissions didn't get set right when Internal Storage was unmounted from my PC.

Since I can use ADB to access the shell, how can I format /system on the droid3? I can't seem to find the correct root name to use.
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Have you tried to root manually? Here are the original instructions vulnfactory.org/blog/2011/08/25/rooting-the-droid-3/

[edit] I guess I miss read that you are trying to unroot.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
try http://rootzwiki.com/topic/4370-sbf-droid-3-fastboot-files-55959-and-56890/ but you cant go from .890 back to .959! no idea about mounting, sorry.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
That's the reference to Rootzwiki I made in the original post, doesn't work sorry.

Using ADB I mounted /system as rw and tried to manually remove certain apps. Once I re-mounted they were there again. So something is preventing me from making real changes to the Internal Storage.
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
You don't have superuser permissions.. In the ADB shell your command line should start with a # indicating superuser permissions.. you have a $
[Motorola Droid 3] Cowmonaut:
Where do you get that idea?

When I do this manually:

1) I'm running the command prompt as Administrator

2)I'm launching into adb using the command "adb shell".

3) First thing I do is type in "su"

4) second thing I do is approve "unknown" in the superuser app on account of it never remembering I already did that.

5) I use the command "mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system"

6) I use the "ls" command on /system/app and find an .apk to uninstall (not all my apps seem to be installed in this location either...)

7) I use the "pm list packages" command to find the rest of the files for that .apk

8) I use "rm <filename>.apk" followed by "pm uninstall <whatever that developer chose to name things>" command to fully uninstall.

I should note on my phone at this point it disappear from the application list.

9) I use the command "mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system"

10) I use the "ls" command on /system/app to confirm and voila, the apk file is back!

The app doesn't show up in my app manager until I reboot the phone. Changes to /system and /data are not persisting and I have no idea why.

I can't seem to unmount them either so I can't format via ADB...
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
Terminal emulator on your phone shows a # with superuser permissions, and a $ with regular permissions. And if the apps come back, then it seems that the device "thinks" its getting superuser permissions, but it really isn't. Running the program as administator does nothing for the phone, it allows you to change things on the computer without restrictions.
[Motorola Droid 3] Manic_Dragon:
If you have root and type in su in the terminal emulator, then it should say

Root@solana:/#. Otherwise it will say permissions denied.
