Go into terminal type exit
[Desire HD Android Development] WhyS:
yeah, a mirror would be nice. I rarely get 12 hours without my internet getting disconnected.

Also, is this really as it is shown in that video from OP?
[Desire HD Android Development] Jhinta:
Lol , nope this is just chroot like there's already like 3 of but any way keep the spirit up .

For the one of the video to even work you need oem drivers that dont exist.

And QC is badly suporting linux but maby this will change by this.

i cant get this to boot for the life of me.

its stuck at "bootin img, this can take a while"

but i've left it there for 1 hour on 3 occasions! all on different ROMS, since i tought that might be the issue..

any assistance from someone who got this working would be super nice!

backtrack installer from play store? only thing backtrack i have heard of before is the linux distrobution :(
[Desire HD Android Development] djxtabay:
The chroot backtrack. search for it in the Dev forum. I think I have found the boot script on the backtrack forum however as it mount the sdcard to be accessible.

I used putty on my windows machine in the office so I have my terminal session on my large screen using real keyboard. I am planning to work on the native ubuntu with usb host kernel but so far it is only froyo rom working with usb host.

I'm trying to find a way to use dual boot with independant kernel...

Guys, a humble request, anyone who's already done with the download, if they could post a mirror link, it would be great.

Rapidshare download is so slow and I dont really have a good connection which keeps cutting me off at times. I am sure it would help the others too :)

What makes it impossible to be patched on ICS/GB kernels compared to froyo(working)?

The guy who did it on his G1 had patch it for 2.3 too I think (or another guy I've seen somewhere within my 215 google searches...)

Also, would it be possible to modify our bcm4329 with the monitor/injection drivers? let's say maybe within a chroot session, if we have the bcm4329 module "monitor capable", could we shut down the one in android and enable the patched one ported from 32bits (available on linux wireless website)?

Thanks!

USB Host patch for HTC desire (not HD)

http://tim.mactory.com/htc-desire/

Here's the link I was talking about. If it would be available for 2.3 or 4.0 roms for our DHD it would be a beast!
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
I tried those already.. it just has to much differences than our DHD

also monitor is out of the question...
[Desire HD Android Development] s14evil:
I was unable to get it to work... It never connected to local host...
[Desire HD Android Development] djxtabay:
Monitor for our bcm4329... but using an external usb wifi would also gives a wider range of signal.

I like my dhd but starting slowly to upgrade on sg2 with hdmi out and usb host. Dual core performance is also a difference!

Thx
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
I tried again to implement usb host, but no score.. I think we need different usb drivers to be compatible with otg and than I can try to port that host patch..

Now the patch doesn't get compiled.. It throws errors and we don't have those stuff in our usb drivers

Sent from my ICS!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] s14evil:
Is there any way to get this working on a streaks.... I heard that it would work on a Xoom ....
[Desire HD Android Development] shedrule:

Think DHD is not capable and the USB port would not be up to the extra load of otg devices.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] isaiahhhhh:
I realize i'm probably going to get flamed immensely for this however for the sake of putting this out there i'll take that risk. I realize after having bought the Kindle Fire and finding out that there are better alternatives out there for the operating system you have become extremely excited, so have I. I understand because i'm also in this situation however what not many people seem to remember is that this new operating system opportunity is not supported by amazon, AKA you are not guaranteed this. The developers on this forum enjoy what they do and share their results with you because they choose to. These developers are not full time slaves to the kindle fire. They have their own personal lives and have jobs outside of these forums. The work they are doing is a great step forward for the Kindle Fire. In essence it makes the Kindle Fire worth more in the long run because it is capable of doing more than when you originally bought it. What am I trying to say? BE PATIENT! The developers have continuously updated the community on their progress, sometimes quickly and sometimes not so quickly. Their speed is their choice and often hinges on issues they run into with their own modding. If you are impatient try to do what they do, risk your kindle like they are and see if you can get better results. Please remember that these developers are doing you a favor and are NOT performing a service. Respect their work, offer criticism if you think it will help with the mod (AKA an issue you've found with the mod) and DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT TIME, they donate the time to you out of kindness, don't make them regret it out of greed.

Thank you,

Isaiahhhhh

I'm sure the 'wrong section' games will start in a minute but before they do...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcs0:
Edit: I apologize - this goes in the Q&A Forum. Please move it.

I've had my HTC G2 (Desire Z) for about 15 months now. I've been happy with it - the phone seems indestructible. I love being able to change ROMs any time I get bored with it. But the screen size, low resolution (480) and speed is bothering me more and more. I tried ICS on it, and it was too laggy to use.

I've been eyeing the Galaxy Nexus for the past month - watching the prices fall on Amazon. They are about $550 now, $650 if I want to buy direct from Amazon. There are a few versions, one says no warranty, one says international warranty. If I buy from Amazon, I at least have their 30-day return - not sure about the 3rd party sellers.

Important to me are screen, resolution, speed. In that order.

On one hand, I could just keep waiting and waiting for a better T-Mobile device, but I just don't see a compatible one coming soon. The Galaxy S2 HD would fit the bill, but I don't see it as T-Mobile compatible. The S3 won't be out for a few months. The One-S is not 720p (while the One-X is). I think these facts are all correct.

So, my assessment is that for the next few months, the Galaxy Nexus might be the best phone I can get right now for T-Mobile.

My reservations are (1) lack of US warranty, (2) lack of SD slot.

The lack of the slot doesn't bother me much from a storage standpoint - I don't keep a ton of media on my phone anyway. But I worry about the rooting/ROM issues. Should it concern me that there is no SD slot?

I'm leaving for a trip on Friday, and I could order today and have it tomorrow.

So, given my situation, does this look like a good buy? Should I get the Amazon version over the other third party vendors ($100 difference).

Thanks for the advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Warranty is very important. Negri and Expansys fulfills their warranties and both are well-known companies.

Negri:

Expansys:

I would go with either of those two choices for buying a Galaxy Nexus. Negri offers for $595 and ships from Las Vegas, NV... Expansys offers the phone for $599 and ships from Chicago, IL.

As far as "lack of SD slot" this is very misleading. Let's think of it this way (most new phones are in this case),

When they say "SD slot" they mean external "hard drive space." The phone itself is equipped with "internal hard drive space" so it's like the same format as the iPhone. It doesn't have a SD card slot, but the phone itself has internal hard drive space.

And no while factory wiping, it will not wipe your phone's "sdcard (internal hard drive)." Everything remains intact, it'll pretty much be a "sdcard" that is irremovable with a size of 16GB (some of that space will be reserved for the Android OS so you don't get exactly the 16GB btw).

In my opinion, it's definitely worth it... this phone will last a long time. And I don't think T-Mobile will be getting any good phones, their upcoming phone is the Samsung Galaxy Blaze 4G.. which isn't that good. Phone itself is bootloader unlocked (fastboot oem unlock) supports HSPA+ (4G) on T-Mobile. What's there not to like? Updates coming from Google, strong developer community, very active forum, a lot of accessories to choose from.

Expansys: http://www.expansys-usa.com/google-nexus-prime-android-smartphone-unlocked-16gb-224148/

Negri: https://negrielectronics.com/samsun...galaxy-nexus-black-unlocked.html#.T2DE4L9SRq0
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcs0:
Thanks for all of this great advice.

Any reason not to buy direct from Amazon (other than price)?

I'm in Chicago, so I would pay sales tax is I ordered from Expansys.

The other 3rd party vendors that have Prime shipping are:

Global Mobiles

BlutekUSA

Yapper

Pavilion Electronics

The Wireless Circle

Any of those sound familiar?

I don't mind paying a bit more for peace of mind, so paying the Amazon premium might be worth it.

Thanks again for the advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
The thing about the Nexus device is that it's always going to have the most development and get software updates first. I've had every phone on T-Mobile including the Nexus S and from experience if you hate skins and don't like waiting for development or updates then go for the GNex. I can't stand anything besides a Nexus device and I learned that the hard way, went through about 30 phones last year and I stuck with my Nexus S until I could afford my GNex.

If you don't mind skins and waiting for AOSP/CM9 to come out for the phone you decide to get then I would either wait for the GS3 (which might not be available until later in the year) or the One S, it has QHD and Super Amoled which are both pretty cool, I can't really go back to LCD after coming from SAMOLED screens.

The GNex I'd say fits all your important requirements and if you plan to hold onto a phone for a while, I'd say go for it, it's THE best phone on the market now, many people might argue that, but I've seen about 9/10 tech sites praising it and saying how great it is. Don't get me wrong it has its flaws, but it's pros definitely out way the cons compared to other phones on the market. PURE AOSP, timely updates, great development(Morfic, Franco, OGDobber, Roman-AOKP, Ezekeel, and a lot of other very talented devs). Get the GNex, you won't be disappointed. As far as the lack of SD card, you can put a good amount of media on 16gb and if you can't there is always Google music and swapping out songs and what not. I've learned to live with it since owning a Nexus S for about 6 months. Also internal is going to be faster than external, so I think a lot of new phones are starting to adopt the internal flash rather than external. It's my favorite Android phone and I've had a lot of them, lol I don't see me getting rid of it until the next Nexus ;D.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
If I helped please press the thanks button. It's the very least you can do :) ... the reasoning why you wouldn't buy it from Amazon is for warranty purposes. Amazon themselves are not selling Galaxy Nexus, it is third-party vendors. On contrast, Expansys & Negri are both trustworthy and will fulfill your warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] will.m:
I got my GN from newegg and it comes with a 30 day refund/90 exchange period.

Coming from an SE X10, the phone is a much nicer overall experience. The colors are better and smoother, but the screen clarity isn't what I was hoping for. Apparently, AMOLED screens are prone to some pixel grit at low brightness and I'm experiencing very light ghosting issues. Unfortunately, my eyes are really sensitive to seeing the grain.

As for the warranty, Samsung USA has been fairly craptastic about servicing gray-market phones, which is pretty deplorable considering the Nexus name, so you're better off paying the premium with a vendor that will facilitate RMA's or go with Squaretrade if your very concerned about it. On the brightside, I haven't read about a lot of phone-breaking problems that would require repair beyond some units that have some serious banding and ghosting that lasts upto 15 seconds.

On the otherhand, X10's had some wdiespread problems with broken usb ports, but their warranty support was great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
You might want to try using a kernel featuring Ezekeel's Color Control. Here's a link explaining it, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1521195 I personally don't have a problem with the screen but check it out and it might help with your problem :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcs0:
Thanks everyone for all the useful input.

I ordered from Newegg. I like that they have 90 days protection (though it is through a third party), and then I added in the $59 one-year ServiceNet policy. Hopefully I won't need it, but it might help in a bind.

The phone was $579. I'll have it on Monday, I think.

Now I have to learn a new rooting procedure. And get used to ICS!

Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Check stickied threads for rooting. It's relatively simple.

1. Get ADB drivers

2. bootloader mode

3. fastboot oem unlock

4. done.... now flash clockwork recovery (fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img)

5. download rom/kernel/gapps -> flash in cwr -> done.

Congrats on your purchase. Newegg is really good when it comes to shipping so you might get it this week depending on where you're located.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcs0:
Thanks. Just got my phone and am doing my homework.

Can I use 4Ext or do I need CW?

I'm on a mac, so I won't be using that GNex toolkit. I have the ADB drivers already installed on my mac from my last root for my G2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
At this point, I would say jump on GS3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] descendency:
Something to keep in mind, the GN is PENTAband. If you ever move or something and Tmobile has terrible coverage, you can more than likely get Walmart's 45 dollar per month plan (using ATT) and still get HSPA+ service.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phonepersonality:
I'd say wait for the 'Universe Nexus'.

LoL.

However, if you can't wait that long, I'd get the Galaxy Nexus.

I have one. It was purchased for me as a gift on Amazon and you won't regret owning one.

I love this phone.

Having said that, there's a lot of Hype about the new 'One' series phones from HTC and the SGS3.

Are they worth the wait? Probably, but there's always gonna be a 'next' new phone just on the horizon. So don't wait too long :)

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcs0:
Considering my GNX arrived an hour ago, I'm going to stick with that for awhile.

It is now bootloader unlocked and rooted.

About to put CWR on and then probably AOKP.
[HTC Rezound] loki993:
Ive been thinking about rooting my phone, but I wanted to temp root it first so I could back it up. Problem is it seems that temp root was broken in an OTA and I dont know if I have it. I just bought the phone so I'm assuming yes.

Firmware version is: 2.01.605.11

yes no? So if I cant temp root and get Titanuim back on then I just have to unlock and wipe right?

Also there is no way to get the bootloader back to saying locked right? Just relocked? I though I heard that you could possibly get it back to locked with a RUU, but I never saw it confirmed. Id just hate to have to send the phone back if something physically was defective and pull a 600 dollar charge on my bill.
[HTC Rezound] sabindaman:
with 605.11 you can not temp root the only way to go is with unlocking.
[HTC Rezound] loki993:
Now Ive had the phone a week and it seems to be fine, but if something is defective will then check it to see if its been unlocked after they send it off?
[HTC Rezound] con247:
People so far have had no trouble sending back relocked phones.
[Droid Eris General] cmajpwc:
Yesterday, my Galaxy Nexus showed up in the mail :D

So, it is with a little sadness actually that I must say I'm leaving everyone here. The developers in this community are incredibly talented and friendly, and I must say even though it's not a powerful phone I'm glad I chose the Eris over the OG Droid two years ago. All of your roms, tweaks and apps you've developed helped me not chuck my Eris against a brick wall (lol). Even though I never posted here too much, I just wanted to say thanks.

I'm probably gonna be back every now and again just to check out what's going on, but for now I'm gonna go enjoy my new Nexus haha. And sorry if this isn't exactly in the right section, I just wanted to make sure the developers saw this.

Peace, y'all.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alexis3005:
my phone fell in the pool and after a drying time I called him. All normal functioning, connection, sound apps, no problem. Until I went to use the camera. nothing works, the screen goes black and nothing happens. I changed the original ROM for the MANHATTAN and nothing working tb. Neither the camera nor the flash LED. I wonder what might have happened??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justin94:
How long did u let it dry for. How quick did u remove the battery? If it has been less than 24 hours, a soak down in ysopropil alcohol may fix it as it seems u have excess moisture in your phone. Do not use rice to dry it. All that will do is allow small dust particles to get under the screen. After u soak in alcohol let it air dry for at least 24-48 hours. It would be best if u took ur phone completely apart to allow for proper drying.

If u are not comfortable with this or it has been to long, hopefully u have insurance :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alexis3005:
Once the phone fell into the water, I stripped it all. As I was a little drunk, ended up losing the phone battery, I had to order another battery at ebay. While the battery is not reached, I left the cell in a pot with rice, for almost 15 days. It can be hardware problem? I did not want to take in the assistance it can take much. Any other alternative?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justin94:
Honestly..... no. Either use insurance or try to by one on eBay or your local Craigslist
[Nook Touch General] Guyman2:
Hi everyone. I'm a long time computer builder/hacker and am just getting into the Nook Simple Touch and rooting. I see that 1.1.2 just came out.

-Should I update to that firmware and them root?

-Will current rooting techniques work with the new firmware?

-Is it possible and easy to unroot?

Thanks in advance for your help. I have done some searching but am having trouble finding the answers and dont want to waste even more time. I hope you understand and I can't wait to get into this rooting thing!
[Nook Touch General] bobstro:
The update incorporates wifi fixes that can be useful if you use it on the road, or suffer a router that v1.1.0 had problems with. I'd recommend it, yes. I haven't seen any downside.

Yes. I did a complete wipe on mine running v1.1.0, updated to v1.1.2 and used the normal TouchNooter 2.1.31 process. Everything worked exactly as it did on v1.1.0, including having to wait 24 hours for the Market to activate.

Hmm. I had no problem wiping and reloading mine. Not sure if that constitutes a 100% unroot, but I think it does. I had no problems.

I just made a point of following Gabrial's instructions in the first post, and everything went smoothly. If you have reasonable expectations, the NST rooted is a great little device. I think you'll be pleased.

[EDIT: Since writing this, I began having problems searching in the Android Market. I rolled back to B&N v1.1.0 and re-rooted, and STILL am having that problem. I don't know why this only started recently, and I do not think it's related to v1.1.2, but I wanted to post it here as fair warning. Also, after rooting using TN, the device info screen showed 1.1.0 after having updated to 1.1.2. I'm changing my recommendation to "do it if you're having wifi issues" for now.]

Thank you for such a wonderful and detailed post. My micro SD card should be here tomorrow and I cant wait to root it. I have a gmail account but not a youtube.
