Hello!

Would someone please post a CPU Throttleing Test on this phone here for me, please?

I really wanna know how it performs before I buy it.

Thank you!

:)
[G1 General] hiimcliff:
We all need it. Which one of you geniuses are going to write the tether app?
[G1 General] dagentooboy:
If we can ssh in we could just set up a proxy thru putty/SSH. Simple solution for now but an "internet Sharing" app would be nice. I am not much of a programmer but I love to play with Linux and I am hoping that I can make some c apps work.... like mplayer
[G1 General] derkenblosh:
Yes! most def!

If I can't tether, i'm buying a crappy sony phone from Tmobile for 3G / modem for my laptop. (if it'll work)
[G1 General] dagentooboy:
ok.... so does anyone have any ideas? The Wireless API doesn't seem to have support for AP mode so would we have to put our laptops into AP mode or carry a router with us everywhere? If it can be put into AP mode then we need to find out if the kernel will have iptables support. Can we run shell scripts in the Java? I can't find anything on the USB port and the Bluetooth API was removed from the SDK. I would love to see this work but without a connection to the PC I don't see how. Once we get a PC connection it should be fairly easy to make this work.
[G1 General] beartard:
The reason winmo has so many apps available is because it's been around for a long time. Just having a lot of stuff doesn't mean it has a lot of *good* stuff. ;) Having 1000 notepad applications that don't do what you like isn't really a good situation.

Android is relatively new. But the ease with which someone can become a developer for the platform is definitely a plus for future software coming very quickly. An Android developer can readily download all the equipment necessary to make an Android app for free in a few minutes. If he or she already knows java, it's that much easier.

I imagine that marketplace will be just like it is for other platforms. Many developers who are already open-source-oriented will definitely release their applications for free. Many others will charge just a small amount because they know they can't make a return on exorbitant fees. Also, despite the bad press they've gotten, Google's philosophy is still "do no evil." I don't think they'd let a dev gouge the community. All these factors make the Android philosophy automatically better than the Apple model.
[G1 General] Black93300ZX:
Hah, considering T-Mobile will limit your speeds as low as 50kbps if you use too much bandwidth, I don't think tethering is a great idea. You'll make it like 10 days with 3G speeds and then have dial-up speeds from then on.
[G1 General] Eirikr88:
they removed the 1gb cap and are doing it based off of usage. I use tethering on my Mogul with sprint and barely use 3gb in a month, with downloading stuff plus WoW and browsing alot. But it's not a tethering app for the G1 remember. Yes initially, but it will be used as an app for any android phone. So the need for a tethering app is there still.
[G1 General] mingkee:
there's a rumor T-Mobile plans to set a limit at 10GB

it's good enough for 99.999%, even you do tethering
[G1 General] walscobry:
tether or AP?

I would much rather have an AP app then say a USB or BT tether imo. I have heard that there is a debug CLI on the USB port but I think that it tied into the walled garden well above the linux shell level, but its a start. I should have got into this thing in 07 but honestly I never thought it would see the light of day...
[G1 General] KPRS:
On certain plans you will have a 10gig limit
[G1 General] Chainfire:
It _may_ be closer than you think :)
[G1 General] Black93300ZX:
Well, all I know is I'd use a LOT of data if I tethered. I used over a gig in 3 weeks of owning my Fuze (1095MB), and using that connection on a computer would easily triple it. I sincerely doubt T-Mobile is going to allow you to take 4 gigs a month when their previous cap was at 1 and they changed the wording of the contract.
[G1 General] echofloripa:
I have a kaiser in UK with the webandwalk plan. I stream things regularly and only once got a letter mentioning that I was going too much over the "limit". Other than that I never felt any slowing in my speed.

Regards

Emerson
[G1 General] dagentooboy:
Ok so back to a tether app.... has anyone figured out how to connect the G1 to a PC? WiFi would be the best solution if we could set it in AP mode but I haven't found a way to do that. So how about bluetooth? I heard they removed the bluetooth API in 0.9 and 1.0. That leaves USB but I am not sure how to make that work either. If we could get some connection to the PC that would be a big start.
[G1 General] dre332256:
Confirmed That It Will Have A 10 Gig Limit...then You Have Edge Connection For Remainder Of Bill Cyc..wifi Is The Alternative To Still Use The Phones Web W/ 3g Like Browsing
[G1 General] rantrav:
-is there anyway that you could give us a link or was this a rep?

-i have read things about the 10 cap but i am not sure either...

-some people say "just wait" but this gives us something to do until the delivery
[G1 General] dre332256:
A Rep...and There Has To Be A Data Plan Or You Can Only Call 911 And 611
[G1 General] Black93300ZX:
My connection pwns yours (lolz), thanks for the idea for the sig though. :)
[G1 General] Dirtay:
data package

fyi everyone tmobile is requiring the g1 to have a specific data plan that you have to have for the g1. And the word is that it only works with the g1 so you cant just swap your sim card into another phone and expect the data plan to work. I have the same problem and thought I could do that with my WING but apparently not. Guess we have to wait for someone to make a tethering app.
[G1 General] mingkee:
I called CS about this question, the answer is: you can

keep in mind that, G1 uses epc.tmobile.com as APN, try it on Wing

you even can request CS to add VPN tag in order to use internet3 APN

will pick up G1 at corp store, and setup my account, switch to G1 data service and add VPN tag

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1444468
[G1 General] Dirtay:
I just got my g1 and the internet still works on my wing so nm maybe you need to get that plan to access 3g speeds.
[G1 General] anarchyuk:
the g1 works with any t-mobile sim that has data enabled and goes through the standard apn, i have one in front of me with a standard web n walk max equiv plan and its working fine. when the phone is released if you buy it new you will be getting a web n walk plus price plan with it, so 3gig fair usage is easy enough for teathering, also if anyone was wondering here is the out put from a dmesg command when its attached to ubuntu

Direct-Access HTC Android Phone 0100 PQ: ANSI:2

this is it, no mount points for ttyusb0 of acm for modem etc but this isnt a hard thing to do, i have been looking through the market place this morning and it has no modem apps or teathering apps yet, hopefully soon tho!!
[G1 General] xspeed9190:
As of right now there is NO DATA CAP. i work for tmobile and they have not stated it will be turned back on. Also unlike at&t we are giving free wifi to all G1 owners, and we will not take it back as at&t did twice. Also after two weeks of speed testing randomly tmobiles 1700mhz 3g/hsdpa wins 9/10 over at&t. this is due to the fact that we are on our own stand alone network with less oncongestion. as far as the data plan works. they all will work the same, the only reason they want people to sign up for the packages is two things bundles data/text and commission purposes. I had my blackberry data plan and it worked fine in the g1.
[G1 General] dagentooboy:
it looks like the kernel supports iptables... so now we just need a way to connect to a PC... any ideas?
[G1 General] bitter1:
I have another stupid reason for a tethering app. The plan I had before allowed me to use Hotspots (total internet) Now the G1 plan does not. That's a major thorn in my side as I travel a lot to places with hotspot. If I can get the G1 onto the wifi hotspot (included in the plan) and then tether it to the PC then I've lost nothing.

That change seriously sticks in my craw. The regular reps had no idea that was the case but the hotspot reps did know. Left hand. . .this is right hand. . . .
[G1 General] neoobs:
I wonder if you can still log in to a hotspot with your laptop... and another issue is... how do they know the android is allowed? Mac addy?
[G1 General] Mikey:
I have not tried this yet, you supposedly can tether using your G1 but not using 3g speed. It will use Edge.

Here is the link
[G1 General] neoobs:
I saw that on the tmobile forums and asked if the guy would come here so we can get more people developing.
[G1 General] Mikey:
Did you try it out?? does it work?
[G1 General] neoobs:
at the moment I can't try it or test it out... having issues with the laptop.
[G1 General] bitter1:
You cannot log in with your laptop anymore. I just found that out the hard way. (Dammit!) So I called. I complained. Etc.

So now I want to tether my G1 using the Hotspot to my laptop since they just yanked that out from under me. Grrrr.

I will try this other method in a sec maybe while I sit here.

Ok wait, this is a bit too complicated to try here, I'll try it when I get home if I can and see how that goes. If it works then maybe it can be developed into something a tad more user friendly.
[G1 General] Mikey:
What??!?!?:confused:
[G1 General] bitter1:
Yeah I know. . .this means a tethering app at least for that is worth my while. Seriously blows that I can't use that. Starbucks, hotels, airports. . .all gone for my laptop and I used it a LOT oddly enough. :-(
[G1 General] bsoft:
I developed something very similar that allows me to run an OpenVPN tunnel to my server. This is the same tactic that I used on my iPhone.
[G1 General] Mikey:
Anyway of getting you to share it with us. :)
[G1 General] bsoft:
Well, right now I don't have actual hardware, so I'm not sure if it works. Also, the VPN server is hard-coded, so it's not going to work for anyone else anyway.

Basically, what I'm doing is creating two sockets - one with the desktop (forwarded over ADB) and one with the OpenVPN server. Then I just send data back and forth between the sockets.

If there's really demand for this, I can clean up my app and post it. But I'd like to test on my G1 first, once I get it next week.
[G1 General] obijohn:
I tried it and can verify that it does indeed work. After the initial setup, it's a simple 4-step process to have a proxy tether. 1) Plug your phone into your laptop. 2) Start the Proxy app on the phone. 3) Run the command "adb forward tcp:8080 localabstract:Proxy" on your laptop. 4) Enable proxy settings on your laptop browser to point to localhost:8080 and start browsing.

Since the T-Mobile Hotspot deal only works on the phone (you can't log in with your laptop anymore), this app in conjunction with adb effectively turns your phone into a Hotspot proxy tether. Say "hello" to Starbucks!

With a Wi-Fi connection on the phone, the speed is great. If you don't have a wi-fi connection, it will of course be slower, and without 3G it's like being back in the good old 2600-baud modem days. I've tried it with and without a wi-fi connection on the phone, and can verify that it does indeed work.

Of course, being a proxy service, it's not a full-fledged tether solution. But if all you want to do is use your laptop browser via the phone proxy, it's a working solution.
[G1 General] Chainfire:
Well we'll still probably be making AndroidWifiRouter ;)
[G1 General] bdogg64:
I tried it out and I can confirm that the Proxy App does work. The only issue I had was installing it but I did that using "adb install Proxy.apk" after setting everything up. Everything else went fine. He also released the source code too. I used Ubuntu 8.04 and my EEE pc to test. Its not my ideal solution, but I definitlety can't complain because its better than nothing.

Here is a link to the source.

http://graha.ms/androidproxy/proxysrc.tar.gz
[G1 General] grahamsz:
I'm the one who wrote the proxy app and this is currently the direction i'm headed too.

The proxy has issues - some can be worked around but it'll never be a full tether situation.

I also think theres some limiting factor on how quickly you can open connections over adb, it feels like it's perhaps queuing them up because if i try to load a webpage that has a graphic on a non functioning server, it'll hang for ages.

The VPN tunnel should be pretty damn easy to get working well. I've also got a hardcoded IP version here but need to build some UI around it on the phone.

If there was demand, i could probably keep a VPN server up and on a fast network and sell access for a few dollars a month. Not all of us have a bunch of servers we can use!
[G1 General] grahamsz:
Also it'd be nice to write a pptp server that actually ran on the phone and allowed you to use dial up networking to connect over adb. Unfortunately we don't have any packet level network interface access so there isn't any way (that i'm aware of) to even consider doing actual tethering. I think it's either proxying or tunneling for now
[G1 General] Chryslerq:
Is anyone else having problems installing the proxy app. Whenever I try to install it It gives me an error "Application install unsuccessful".
[G1 General] obijohn:
Do you have the RC29 update? Installed fine here. Don't forget to check the option on your G1 to allow "unsupported software" or whatever it's called.
[G1 General] Chryslerq:
Yeah I have the RC29 update, I have the unsupported software checked off, when I try to install it allways fails.
[G1 General] obijohn:
do you mean "checked off" or "checked on"?
[G1 General] Chryslerq:
"checked on" it allows me to install unsupported apps.
[G1 General] obijohn:
You may have a corrupted download. Delete the existing file and re-download it, then try to install it again.
[G1 General] Chryslerq:
When I select the proxy.apk file it prompts me:

Replace application

The Application you are installing will replace another application.

All previous user data will be saved.

I hit ok

Then it shows

Allow this application to:

No permisions required

Install cancel

When I try to install it shows

Adroid system

Application Install unsuccessfull

Launch is greyed out and cannot be selected the only selectable option is Done which exits the installer program.
[G1 General] grahamsz:
Thanks for providing the details - various people have reported this but i've never got any actual details.

As far as I can tell, applications are identified on the system using their package name. I'm using the package name of "ms.graha.android.proxy" which is tied to my personal domain at graha.ms which shouldn't overlap with anything else.

Does using the adb install command work any better?

I've never installed any other apps that didn't come from the market, but the one has never given me any comparable problem on my phone
[G1 General] hetaldp:
Its better if we can make Network Address Translator (NAT) based Software Router which can route any Port and can also make Inbound Port Mapping. We can also have UPnP Universal Plug and Play in Android

Q: Now the Quetion is how can we develop and new UPnP based NAt Router Software in Android ?

A: Answer is world 90% NAT Router, Broadband Routers runs on Linux kernal. and you know Some of them are Open Source We just have to Customise the Code can easily have a Full fledged WiFi Router on Android

[G1 General] grahamsz:
Forgive my ignorance here, but how much work has been done on hacking the underlying linux kernel on android?

For now anything that can be delivered via the app store is going to have to be written in Java and use the published APIs. Unless i'm blind, there's nothing in them that would allow us to implement NAT without first doing some kind of stateful packet inspection and then trying to recreate the socket operations that might have caused the packets.

I have been working on a straight tunnel app which will allow a tethered laptop to connect to a remote VPN or SSH server. I did just download a file via scp and got almost 150kbit over edge - that seems quite a bit faster than my proxy attempt this weekend.

Sadly it's getting late and i've got a hectic day at work tomorrow so i'll have to put it on hold! Watch this space!
[G1 General] ctitanic:
I'm using RC29 too and I got the same message about replacing the file. After that it did not install anything. I tried to install it using the Adb but the end result was the same. Proxy is not installed.
[G1 General] grahamsz:
I just launched a new version of my proxy app - now called Tetherbot

http://graha.ms/androidproxy/

I've switched to Socks because it seems to be a bit more flexible than http and now surfing the web is much more tolerable on EDGE. It also means that https now works and it should work with quite a few other applications as long as they support socks proxies.

I also added a straight port bouncer which makes it really easy to open an ssh tunnel to a linux machine somewhere and route your traffic through that.

Feedback is very welcome!

Graham
[G1 General] grahamsz:
It seems a lot faster on edge, but it capped out at about 1.5mbit up and down on my wifi connection.

I'll be in vegas tomorrow and i guess i've got the excuse i need to carry my laptop!
[G1 General] grahamsz:
I hope so. Sadly it'll either require hacking at a lower level on the phone or some kind of additional API from google. I might be pretty handy at stringing java stuff together using published documentation but i don't have the experience to reverse engineer the lower levels on the phone.

Hopefully google will do the right thing!
[G1 General] Chryslerq:
I was able to have the previous proxy app to work. With the tetherbot app though it just loads a blank page. Firefox doesn't give me an error it just loads a blank white page. Am I doing something wrong?
[G1 General] alfmetal:
Hi, i can use the t-mobile hot spot with my g1 data plan

try your 10 digit phone number as user name

and your last 4 digits of your SSN (social security number )

hope this helps
[G1 General] IronWolve:
Not too happy either

I had the total internet soc addon, 20 bux, and I got wifi hotspot included, the 25 dollar G1 basic data doesnt have include hotspot, only g1 wifi on hotspot.

I called in, they said they will offer a 10 dollar wifi addon for laptops next week,

Pretty lame, I bought a G1 at the 2 year off, and my bill goes up by 30 bux, and they want another 10 dollars? Stop nickle and diming me like ATT, damnit!

So anyways, tetherbot works, speed tests are good, but I vpn is what i need for work. But hey, guess I need to charge work for true hotspot now....
[G1 General] l3wish:
Yeah Thanks to l3wis which is me lol. We were getting the blank page cause firefox doesn't let you use Socks by it self. So i got around it with Foxy :)
[G1 General] l3wish:
I was getting the same error at first with the new app update. Firefox doesn't let you use Socks by it self that's every time you type in it disappears. So here is what you have to do.

Download FoxyProxy from mozilla page. It's a Proxy Add-on that let's you use Socks v4

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search?q=foxyproxy&cat=all

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

Open the FoxyProxy Options

Proxies ----->

Add New Proxy ------>

General (Check enable,Proxy Name: Tetherbot, Leave blank Proxy Notes, Select Animation icon & Include this proxy) ---------->

Proxy Details (Select Manual Proxy Configuration, Host name: localhost Port: 1080, Select Socks proxy?-Socks v5) Click ok a warning message should appear saying "You didn't enter and enable any white....." Hit yes

Tools/FoxyProxy/Use Proxy "Tetherbot for all URLs

Now refresh your page and see if you are able to go online..

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

Update: Make sure you to Check "Use SOCKS proxy for DNS lookups" Is Under Global Settings. / BY l3wis/L3wish

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] lewmur:
I am totally confused. I have had many Samsung tablets with the latest being an SM-T500 and have succeeded in installing custom ROMs on all of them. But this SM-G960U1 has me stumped. A lot of early threads seem to say US models couldn't be modded but then there is a whole section dedicated to ROMs and kernels for it. Now I'm getting the impression that it worked for a while but not with the latest builds. My phone updated itself to the FUE4 build as soon as I set it up. Is there anything I can do to install custom ROMs on it or do I have to wait or someone to solve the latest glitches???
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] pieterdepiet:
Hi, I'm having some issues with Gcam on my mi 10 (custom rom), and I was wondering if anyone had the standard MIUI apk for the UMI. So I could run the camera apps side by side.

It should be relatively easy to extract it from the normal rom.

I'd highly appreciate this.

Hello everyone . I appreciate all the work put into XDA and i look forward to learning some things. I am new to the world of what Android can do but it looks very interesting. I have no coding experience or anything that goes along with that but i am looking forward to finding out it's capabilities. Again thank you to everyone putting time into this.

[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] william liu:
Yes there is a method. First you need to clean flash china rom first then use MIUI updater to flash MIUI 12.5 but for me its not working because my device goes into a bootloop after installing china rom. Maybe you should try flash china rom and see if it's work for you or not.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Sabbats:
Hi there

Wondering if someone could help me with this.

I recently purchased a Poco F3. Transferred all data from my Galaxy Note 9.

Everything has been going well other than this.

Certain contacts, when I call them result in an almost immediate "Call Ended" message (and that call ended tone sound).

It's as if the phone doesn't even initiate the call it happens so quick. The person I am calling doesn't get any call. No matter how many times I try calling the number, the same problem occurs. They can call me, I can never call them.

It's only happening with some numbers, others work fine?

I am unsure how to diagnose or fix this - I'm running MIUI Global 12.5.1 on SMARTY Network in the UK. I've naturally restarted the phone numerous times, tried airplane mode off and on, removed the SIM etc.
