[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Do you mean this: DEC-31-2011+0.zip?If so, it means, when the software was finished, I think.
[LG Optimus Black] explor3r3:
nope , i mean this code OK 3597XXXXXXXX LGP970 APRTTL 110KPXXXXXX 20111028(THIS DATE) V20n_00_3 http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/ezls/...IN_LGP970AT-00-V20n-EUR-XXX-DEC-31-2011+0.zip

[LG Optimus Black] adxgrave:
After lg update client extracted the kdz file, we'll get cab file and then it get extracted again and we get p970.dll and wdb file. I've check p970.dll and it has reference to AP download and CP download. If the update client did download the AP and CP file, a tcpdump or wireshark capture during the update might be useful. But more likely it just convert wdb to AP and CP using p970.dll before flashing the phone. That we need lg's proprietary tool to do the conversion.

Also, judging from url, i think the link is just for reference for their technian or something like that.
[LG Optimus Black] exe127:
is there any ideas/method that we can bypass the LG survaillence and get the bin/fls files?

[LG Optimus Black] roltzy:
Hey guys,

I tried something interesting today. I upgraded to the latest official firmware with the LG Mobile Update and it appears, that the .fls and .bin files are loaded into memory by LGUserCSTool.exe when the upgrading process starts. I verified this by dumping its memory and looking inside with a hex editor. That means the newest firmware .fls and .bin can be taken from there.

I had a hard time finding out where the files ended inside the dump, though. Also the bin file seems to be in multiple parts (LGP970_AP[0].bin, LGP970_AP[1].bin etc). So in the end, I didn't quite get there, but maybe someone more knowledgeable can improve on this?
[LG Optimus Black] adxgrave:
Nice finding man. Somewhere to start. I've tried direct download with encoded url but failed miserably. Lol.
[LG Optimus Black] dflt:
Try sniffing communication between LG and update. Also probably you need to have correct useragent set.
[LG Optimus Black] roltzy:
I tried that too. LG Update uses 2 user agents, none of them give access to the bins. Besides, the regular updater only downloads the kdz file which is available to everyone.
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
There is this linux installer app in the market (link).

As it needs root, and I haven't done it yet, is there anyone here that have tried it??

Thanks,
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Thanks, gonna give it a try later.
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
What about this?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Oh crap, I completely forgot.. Got mixed up with other stuff :)

Gonna put a reminder.

EDIT: Done. Screenshots attached, one for the standard terminal, the other from aptitude, before updating packages.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Anyone else tried this? I'm having some issues with getting mysql up and running. If anyone is asking well, I'm trying to transform my phone into a server and host my own site :D

Just because I CAN! *evil laughter*
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
It seems we now have a computer much more than a smartphone...

Maybe it's time to root to test this.

If it has aircrack-ng then it will worth the work.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Managed to connect via SSH from PC. Still haven't looked into the MySQL issues though.
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
I finally unbootlocked and rooted my ChaCha and installed this.

I installed Debian, and I'm ready to start testing things.

I installed stable but manually upgraded to testing. But I couldn't setup a SSH server.

Where did you got from??

What do you have in your sources.list?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Update apt from the Distribution Manager and afterwards:

apt-get check
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install ssh

I still couldn't get MySQL server 5.1 up and running; I have a strange feeling there's something wrong with the distribution, as I've just installed it on my ubuntu box without any errors.

Can you give it a try?

apt-get install mysql-server-5.1

It should print out something about package not configured yet at some point.

EDIT: Forgot to add

apt-get install openssh-server

Start the ssh server with

/usr/sbin/sshd

with "sshd" only you'll get the following error:

sshd re-exec requires execution with absolute path

Afaik, the sshd $PATH is defined wrong for the service so that's why running it simply with sshd won't work.

Test the functionality afterwards with:

ssh localhost

Forgot to add the info you requested for sources.list:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze main non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze main non-free
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze/squeeze main non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze/squeeze main non-free

Should be the same though I think. What's yours?
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
Ok. I'll try that.

I already installed psmisc so I could try the lsdev command.

But as it uses /proc and /dev folders, and none of them are in the chroot, they are useless...

But I will try to somehow link from inside the chroot to the actual folders, to try if they work.

EDIT:

I tried mysql server, and I had an error just in the very final stage of setup.

Is this the same for you??
[HTC ChaCha] dr.ilijevski:
someone got succes?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Yep, it's the same.

I'm thinking that mysql 5.0 is already installed and when trying to upgrade to 5.1 a know issue is occurring, where my.cnf does not contain a skip-bdb command at the end, but it doesn't seem to work either; also tried chmod a+r on the my.cnf file as permissions were not granted properly on my device.

@dr. - success on what?
[HTC ChaCha] dr.ilijevski:
sorry i meant to boot gnome or lxde on htc chacha
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
Modifying the init scripts in the boot partition, I think it could be done.

Take a look here to have the information that could lead you to do it:

http://www.androidenea.com/2009/06/android-boot-process-from-power-on.html

http://www.androidenea.com/2009/08/init-process-and-initrc.html

Well, that is really the tip of the iceberg, because you would have then to port the X.org server, searching/porting/writing for the drivers for it to work, and finding a desktop enviroment that would run smoothly and with enough room in such a small screen with such a low resolution.

And not only that... What about the radio? Not the FM radio, but the GSM or CDMA radio that allows you to make voice calls and have mobile internet.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Funny thing is that if you check the market app screenshots, there is a screenshot of a running deb dist, apparently on a device.
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
I sent the developer a couple of questions and had no answer...

This was a kind of experiment, but I think it won't last that much in my ChaCha, because it has no practical use -- for me.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Hmm, got a few extras:

mysqld (the mysql server's main program)

[ERROR]: Can't create IP socket: Permission denied

[ERROR]: Aborting.

So the ld ain't turning on since it has no "permission" to open up sockets, therefore both the mysql-server and the mysql-server-5.1 won't be able to install, since both of them require the mysqld to start first.

Addendum: missing socket file mysqld.sock in /var/run/mysqld/ seems to be the cause of this problem.

note the two last lines. it seems that there are no permissions somehow to create the PID file. i edited the my.cnf file to point to that dir, tried to change the user from "mysql" to "root", nothing worked.

the dir is valid and has wide open access (i made chmod a+rw on it just to be sure), so the permissions should be ok.

the wall is starting to be bloodied from so much headbumping. any ideas in this?
[HTC ChaCha] satan_claus:
Yes, I sincerely apologize for kicking an old thread but I ran into this issue today and nobody seemed to know the answer.

The fix is:

adduser mysql AID_INET

It adds the mysql user to the AID_INET group. After this MySQLd will start just fine.

[Sony Tablet S] ase3000:
Hi,

Has anybody faced this issue?

Whenever I open the camera app then switch to front camera, the camera app force close and the tablet restart. I guess the app got corrupted somehow and I'm not sure if this is related to the root.

At any event, I'd appreciate it if some can provide me with camera.apk. Maybe replacing mine would solve the issue.:(
[Sony Tablet S] ps3taker:
Just tried, no issue here. Had an issue similar to this before root. Try browsing into the folder where pics are - i deleted some which did not look right and it refreshed the strip of photos in the camera app and force closes disappeared
[Sony Tablet S] ase3000:
Thanks for the tip but unfortunately this does not work!

If something is wrong with the gallery it would crash whenever I open the camera. but the problem only happens when switching to front cam.

My only hope is get the camera.apk and overwrite the one I have.
[Sony Tablet S] ps3taker:
post location of the app where it is on the tablet and maybe people will post it for you. Have you tried clearing cash for the app too?
[Sony Tablet S] ase3000:
the camera.apk is under /system/app but after some trials I assumed that it's not the app. It's probably the driver or something the front camera is dependent on. I have tried turning on the front cam with Skype and other apps and again system crashed.

I guess I could either do factory restore or search/wait for firmware update. :(

Thanks anyway ps3taker
[Nexus One General] ShadowCodeGaming:
So i tried out basically all the sense roms out here and decided to write a little review, that hopefully will make you choose the sense thats right for you.

First up: Sebastiaan15's runny port!

Well, i think this is the very best sense rom atm. Based on sense 3.5 Infact this is my daily rom. Very smooth, almost no bugs, ad2sdx, a lot of 3d widgets etc. Bad: No tbwake/ notifications, No skin preview (use list instead), Very thirsty on the battery.

Hypersense v3.0 Nand:

Well this one is really, really fast. Perhaps the fastest sense out here. Based on sense 2.1+3.0. If your phone needs to be ultrafast, use this one. It is awesome. But in order to make it go onto the nand you need its special blackrose, wich is very dangerous to flash. Always verify the md5sum. ALWAYS. Also this one misses some apps and some widgets, not that you will miss them, but anyways. Also does not have tb wake or notifications.

RcadsMixHD:

Slightly Outdated rom, very very very slow. Graphics glitches, brr. Horrible. Never use this one. Bad: skins dont work, graphics glitches, tbwake/ notify not working, etc.

Runnymedemod007:

Based on sense 3.5. Slow. Old kernel. No tbwake/notification. Cant download anymore.

More will be added soon.
[Nexus One General] XeloOw:
You forgot to say : BlissMod 007 , !! But this ROM needs to be ported, the new version removed lot of bugs :)

And me too the Sebastiaan ROM is my daily ROM !!! :) :)
[Nexus One General] tommert38:
You're saying that BlackRose is 'dangerous', but everything you flash is dangerous when you don't verify md5..

BlackRose is actually very easy to install, just follow the steps in the OP. It gives our Nexus much more freedom (read: free system space)! In my opinion much better than using ext partition on slower µSD cards..
[Nexus One General] ShadowCodeGaming:
I know, it says more to be added, but i have not tried blissmod007 yet.
[Nexus One General] ShadowCodeGaming:
Well actually i bricked my n1 doing blackrose (fell of my desk) but i have done blackrose a billion times.
[Desire HD General] shad0wboss:
Using virtuous affinity at the moment and not liking the wifi speed at all (2 signals at a distance of 6 meters?)

I remember using one of the MIUI rom or sense rom which gave really good wifi connection, don't know what's the issue but my sister's I9001 is picking wifi at great distance and not mine + the speed is really slow...

DO you guys have a rom in mind which i can flash for better wifi connection?

EDIT: also some suggestions about runny vs bliss would be very appreciatd since i'm not a big sense user..
[Desire HD General] Zeitraffer:
You can try RCMix3D, I'm always having 4 bars when near my router and a little less when moving away.
[Desire HD General] s0ulreaver:
Maybe there is something wrong with the WiFi antenna.

The antenna is located in the cover of the battery.

Take out the cover and clean the metal contacts.

Put it back and see if it made a difference.

It's the 1st thing you should try.

If this doesn't help, check for a radio that matches your model, see also if a matching RIL is needed.
[Desire HD General] chaturvedi007:
This most probably is a radio issue...flash the correct radio based on your current RIL..
[Desire HD General] Slavon-93:
Also think it's a radio problem. Flash the correct one and RILs and averything will be ok.

And for example, if you flash something like Virtuous Quattro or IceColdSandwitch, you may get low bars on the indicator, but it doesn't mean the signal is bad.
[Desire HD General] crisis1977:
I'm running ARHD 6.3.2 with 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M Radio at the moment.I always have 3 to 4 bars wifi connection even when im in the room next to my office.

The Rom runs smooth and stable without having any problems at all.
[Desire HD General] mol1974:
Been using rcmix3d for the last couple of months and wifi reception has always been strong
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Dont be fooled by the WIFI indicator bars, As i understand it AOSP based ROMs use a different algorithim to display the strength which results in an apparent lowering of the signal strength as long as it connects and works i play little or no attemtion to the bars.
[Desire HD General] nikosssb:
Yes I would say it's a radio issue, unless it's posted as a bug in the ROM by other users. check the forums for the rom, otherwise, flash new radio WITH CORRESPONDING RIL!!
[Desire HD General] abhimar1128:
Rcmix 3d runny v4.0
[Desire HD General] _Man0waR_:
I agree with @ghostofcain, if your wifi is working fine, don't bother too much about the numbers of bars.
[Desire HD General] Stevie_:
I had my best wifi experience with the AndroidRevolution HD 7.0.0 Rom.

maybe you really should bother about your Radio..

using the 12.28b.60.140eP_26.02.03.15_M3 myself.
[Desire HD General] Dlog:
best way to see the signal strength is this:

*#*#4636#*#*

and then wifi information -> wifi status

there you've got the signal strength in dB wich is a bit more comparable than "i've got only two bars".
[Desire HD General] ramekers:
good tip using this test-number;

is the RSSI value the wifi signal strength ?
[Desire HD General] tamagotono:
Yes. RSSI stands for Received Signal Strength Indication. Wikipedia has an article about it if you want more information.

help needed urgently for downgrading HTC G2

help needed urgently ...

i followed the above forum but i got stuck in last step

....

Code:

> fastboot oem rebootRUU

Your phone should now reboot into a black screen with a gray/silver "HTC" logo on it.

Next we flash the Stock Rom. This may take a few minutes as it transfers the file to the phone then attemps to update (downgrade).

Code:

> fastboot flash zip StockRom.zip

In rare cases the flash stops and the user gets a warning to repeat the flash immediately - no panic, just run the " fastboot flash zip StockRom.zip" (only this command, not the rebootRUU one) again and it will work.

....

after this step some how i got error .. as per instructions i tried many times but no luck .. now my phone keep on restarting with four warning icons in corners with HTC icon ... any help will be appreciated ....

my phone mode is HTC G2
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
ooooh thats the strange ruu mode, its pretty easy to get out of.

first you need to turn your phone on, plug it in, open a cmd and run 'fastboot oem boot'

That'll get your phone up and running.

Then you need to download misc_version 0.4 push it to /data/local/tmp, get temp-root (run psneuter/fre3vo/zergRush) and run misc_version with:

./misc_version -r off

Then your phone will be back to normal.

It's not about strength - it is about being scratch resistant. That said, it's not scratch-proof - nothing is. Basically, if you've got a tiny scratch then it would be a large scratch if it weren't gorilla glass. You can still scratch it, but it's harder to do. Apparently sand is a big culprit.

[General Questions and Answers] theabsurdman:
i'm sorry. i can't post a pic of my scratch as i've now put a protector on the screen, which renders it completely invisible. i know! horse after cart.

this is the 2nd protector i tried; the first, a matte one, i didn't like, as it dulled the display too much. the one i have now, which shows fingerprints somewhat (not as bad as without) and causes reflections, is pretty much indistinguishable from no protector at all. very happy.

i'd recommend everybody now to get a screen protector on their TF. don't rely on the gorilla glass.
