I rebuilt the kernel module for a CM9 nightly, but it doesn't work. Basically there is a bug in the firmware code where they are accidentally freeing a packet twice (which doesn't happen on the International version of the SGS2, that they officially released for), and the card crashes. Here is the response I got from them:

They don't seem willing to help until they get the packet injection working. Kind of sucks...

Hi everypeople.

I have a question about cwm. I installed it into my tablet (gemei g9) but I think, it isn't work right. First of all, when I start the recovery function, I read that my version of cwm is for a "SmartPad 907c". I have never found one for my tablet, but it seems thet it is the correct because everyplace thet offer a version of cwm, are using thet...

Well. In my case, the volume + doesn't work. Only the volume -... And when I try to flash a rom, I found error with code 0 and 7. When I try to mount a usb partition, I can't... And so many messages more... Other times, I do, for example, a system format. All is correct, but in a reboot... all is correct and the tablet starts correctly. In fact... I have never get anything...

I try to flash many version of cwm. With success, but I can't chage the first option because volume + and - don't work.

Have anybody know what it is happening? Thanks a lot.

hi all -

long story, i was playing around with a few app that had temp unroot ability, and I actually permanently lost my root. Does anyone know how I can get it back? I have CM9 beta4 currently on my Epic.

I think this can be very helpful..

Upon looking and looking, I found that the /acct/uid/10221 folder is writable

and in that folder the cgroup.event_control file is not readable.. but is writable :)

My thoughts are this is a library that gets called.. not sure what calls it but it seems to run at the system level..

I was thinking it could be possible to get the file from an already rooted device, or a 4.04 sdk

and should it be written in Java, leave the current instructions intact, but add ones that import su,

verify and then restore the original file so the phone doesn't try and root itself every 5ms or something.

I'm pretty new to android programming and only have trolling experience, xda saved my SE X10a from being worthless..

But through those adventures with that phone got a good handle on ADB, the SQLite, and config files such as build.prop

To save time, I'm looking for:

1) A readable "cgroup.event_control" file from a 4.04 HTC install so I can rewrite and attempt this..

2) Information regarding the ability to call a java library from an app that's located on the SDCARD.

3) Victims who will try this.. my thoughts out there that some of you have unlocked bootloaders and can

just re flash your phone should things go ape ^%@*.

If any other developers want to use this information.. please do and god speed!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
You can't get a readable "cgroup.event_control", not from the ROM itself.

I have tried pulling it from MIUI based on JB, and I just flashed 4.04, still nothing.

it needs to be executable (i think) to pull it.

A little update.. I have done some homework through adb.. and found they are created by an app, and each app has its own group for permissions, I would bet my left shoe it's AT&T ready2go, I bet they fixed it's ability to push apps but forgot some details in the permissions side of things..

also as a note I have moved over to the Root 2.20 ThinkTank in the General section @ http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30351905

I think when an app is installed, it is given a profile via the cgroups for memory allocation, cpu time requisites, etc.. my current mission is finding out which app did this.. I listed more info on cgroups in my post at the link above.. kinda interesting

Hi,

Seen a lot of users asking whether reverse tethering/Internet pass through (

using PC internet on phone

) is possible for Note or not.

So decided to post it here.

Okay here is the link to the original thread by capslock66. (All credits to him)

NOTE- This is for Windows users only!!

You do not have to buy any paid app or any router to use this method, it's absolutely free!!

What do you need to use this tool?

Rooted Note

proper drivers installed on pc.

USB tethering enabled on phone.

USB cable.

Summary of instructions to use.

1. Download reverse tethering .zip from bottom of OP from above link.

2. Extract the .zip anywhere on your pc.

3. Copy Tracetool service.apk from extracted folder to phone and install as normal app.

4. Start AndroidTool.exe from extracted folder on pc connect your phone and click "connect" on the Android reverse tethering tool.

5. Allow superSu permission on phone when requested.

Done!!

I have tested it myself on Windows XP and no issue in connecting or installing apps from Google play.

****************************************************************************************************

Few other methods (thanks to Cooldoud)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] rraaka:
ah, Jeetu, this is working for me. But I cant download anything from Google play with it or any other downloads. Just browser works for surfing.

I wanted to know about how to make this app work https://play.google.com/store/apps/...NvbS5saXR0bGVsYW4uUmV2ZXJzZVRldGhlci5QYWlkIl0.

I tried the trial one but it wont connect.....pulling my hair out. even the paid app doesnt work all that easily for everyone. i have windows 7 and when i go to share my net in settings it waunt SEE my android phone !!! :mad:

ive disabled firewall, tried bridging connections......no go :(

my mobile data plan is soooo slow.i need to download many things.... i wanted something like - 'internet passthrough" that i have with my HTC sense rom :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jeetu1981:
No need to download anything for this method to work, just install the .apk included in .zip to your phone. If you are not able to download from Google play then try this.

First enable cell data connection on phone and then connect to reverse tethering tool, I am on Windows XP right now and it is working fine for me with antivirus running and firewall on, downloaded 29MB game in just 4-5 secs.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] rraaka:
yes, its working...... managed to update apps from play on LR9

I have used reverse tether from play store long time ago

and i found a note i have put with this application regarding how did it was worked, may be useful

---------------------------

- Install to device (reverse tether from play store)

- Connect to PC N open application

- It will add new network connection (control panel – network connection) e.g. local area connection 4

- Now Rt click on network connection which connect to net (e.g. local area connection) – select property – advance – internet connection sharing

Check box and select local area connection 4(android) from dropdown box- OK

Hmm just curious and bit confused... So inorder for me to enable tethering, I need to always plug my fone to the usb cable and on to my laptop... Is this how it goes?

If so.. Is there some chance we can still tether but not using any cables anymore? Hmmm like tethering it wirelessly?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] cooldoud:
When I need to do reverse tethering I usually use "VirtualRouter", which lets me share my Internet through wifi. I find it a bit more practical as I don't need to have my phone plugged in, but it obviously also means that you're not charging the battery ;) . It does require Windows 7 though and a compatible Wifi driver. If you're under XP, you might also have some luck with dedicated software like Connectify which serves the same purpose. Used to work for me, but a note that I haven't used it in a while.

VirtualRouter : http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/

Connectify : http://www.connectify.me/

If you want to try a software similar to VirtualRouter, but that has been updated after 2009, you may want to try this one (Win 7 only again). Haven't tried it myself though so can't comment on whether it works :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jeetu1981:
Well, we have lot of options to enable wireless tethering but for that user need wifi enabled pc and may need to buy router in other options and in that case it's no longer free, where as the method in OP is absolutely free, you just need USB cable and can be used on old PCs without wifi ;)

That's the motive of the original thread.

But it's good that we have more than one available option to use reverse tethering on Note, it will be easy for users to find best suited. let them coming :)

Thanks, added to OP for easy access.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jeetu1981:
Yes, few hiccups but that can be managed I guess. I turned data on initially and then turned it off and was able to use internet on phone from pc, try it :)

trying to use my laptop net conn on my note .. connectify not working as virtual router.. can anyone explain the method??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] nokiamodeln91:
for virtual router to work you need win 7 and above

run this command in cmd

< netsh wlan show drivers >

look for Hosted network supported : Yes

if it says no even if the drivers are updated for WLAN, then its not supported on your card. (WIn 7 and above only)

for this enable usb debugging on phone and install the tracetool apk on phone, open it and click on the 2nd tab on top and allow su access. then run the android tool exe on pc and connect the phone using cable and click connect.

Why would you want root access?

Well, ask yourself this...

Would you be satisfied with only your desktop and start menu as a user?

Or you would prefer to have access to C:\ as an administrator?

It's the difference between REALLY having control over your device vs having the illusion you have control of your device.

Titanium Backup, I can't stress enough how useful TB is. Between backing up, restoring, moving save data to another device, not to mention being able to save it all to cloud storage. If you ever have to do a factory reset, TB is imo the best way to keep your data.

Ad Away. Doesn't need to be explained.

ability to remove worthless stock software, or freeze it (via Titanium Backup).

access to apps that you otherwise might never have access to (example - Google Now before it got downgraded)

because it's easy to do.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgman:
Why root? First of all let me say, I didn't want to root, I love the Nook out of the box experience. Multiple times I've rooted, a new update for Nook has come out and I've tried it, only to go back to the rooted version later.

Many folks have different reasons, but for me there are two main reasons to root:

1. App Selection. The App store on the Nook color is pitiful. Sorry to say this, I love the Nook, but the majority of the apps I want aren't available. The facebook app, One Note, etc., BN is relying on developers to push the apps to them, rather than getting the most popular apps and working with the developers to make their app available. The should have a team at BN (1-2 people even) that do nothing but test apps and if they are compatible add them to the Nook market (at least the free ones). Wouldn't be to hard to see what people are searching for in the app store and use that as your priority list. Seriously, no facebook app? Facebook is now hit more than Google, why wouldn't you do what it takes to get the most popular app in available in your app store.

2. $$$ savings. If I've already purchased apps on my phone, I don't want to purchase them again on the Nook. After rooting, I sign in to Google and I can download the apps I've already paid for. This is huge when you have a larger app collection. This is secondary though, because if all the apps I needed were in the existing Nook app store, I probably would have paid for them again and not rooted.

I think the Nook is far superior to the original Kindle tablet, to be fair I haven't seen the newer Kindle. However I think if the Nook has any hopes of competing long term and not being a niche product, they need to open their app market.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgman:
Apparently you haven't used a stock Nook Color, which is what the OP was asking about (though easy to miss that after 3 pages of responses, and being in the Galaxy Note forum ;) ). You don't sign into the Android marketplace, but the BN App Store. None of your apps purchased on another device will work on your Nook Color unless you either (a) buy it from the BN app store (assuming its available which most aren't) or (b) root the device.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loribuono:
No, I wasn't asking about rooting Nooks. I was asking about rooting the Note, hence posting in the Note forum. I mentioned Nooks as examples of things I've rooted in the past, and included my reasons for having done so.
