Ok I'm trying to do get this to work but when I type adb remount i get the error: "error: protocol fault <status 72 65 6d 6f?!>"
[G1 Android Development] bbbblack:
Are you able to get to ur sdk/tools folder through cmd line?
[G1 Android Development] speoples20:
Yeah I can get to the tools and I've done /adb devices and it sees my phone. Just get the error when I start the process.
[G1 Android Development] Makavelifaison:
mine wont get past 3rd step. keeps saying read only file
[G1 Android Development] bbbblack:
do u have ur phone in debugging mode? and are u root enabled? because "read only" i believe means non superuser access or something 2 that effect
[G1 Android Development] bbbblack:
ok. disconnect the device, close cmd line, and redo the process. then give me a step by step of what happened. or perhaps a screenshot?
[G1 Android Development] I7oobie:
I think the original instructions are messed up. They look different from the 50 other times i've done them... hmm...:eek:
[G1 Android Development] HOGWILD:
thank you it worked after a lot of reading thanks to all
[G1 Android Development] kindanewbie:
HElp please

Alright so i am pretty new to this still. But learning quick :p i installed the browser.apk to my card, and went in to telnet and followed the insturctions. but when i enter in adb remount it doesnt work. so i tried the terminal emulator, and it says permission denied. any advice, maybe let me know what im doing wrong. if you could, kinda explain in like i am 12 lol when i said new i mean this is the second day playing with this is
[G1 Android Development] Smokuevo:
i did everything have back up of browser on sd card but it still wont rotate home page has not changed.. :(
[G1 Android Development] parrothd:
You need root access for this mod to work..
[G1 Android Development] Smokuevo:
i do have root access....
[G1 Android Development] I7oobie:
You do not put this on your SD Card, you put it in the tools folder of your sdk program. Then you do your commands through your windows command.
[G1 Android Development] Smokuevo:
actually here.. i followed the instructions from the first post on this thread which are:

adb remount

adb pull /system/app/Browser.apk BrowserBackup.apk

adb push BrowserBackup.apk /sdcard

adb pull /system/app/Browser.odex BrowserBackup.odex

adb push BrowserBackup.odex /sdcard

adb push Browser.apk /system/app

adb shell rm /system/app/Browser.odex

adb push Browser.apk /system/app

since i already backed it up and stuff... so after i did those 2 lines it works now!

then i went to the link again with download and used:
[G1 Android Development] I7oobie:
Yup, those last two lines have somehow disappeared since the first post was posted. I PM'd Koush to see if those are right.
[G1 Android Development] Koush:
I readded them. Accidentally got deleted while I was editing my post.
[G1 Android Development] I7oobie:
Thanks Koush, the only reason I could tell, is because I've had to do it so many times. Thanks for the re-add... :D
[G1 Android Development] xile6:
Has this happen to anyone else? Well when i go into More > Flip Orientation

It flips it and disable the auto rotate untill reboot.

Also when will we be seeing an enable auto rotate and disable button?
[G1 Android Development] andyandrwew:
wow allong with the droidsans app everything is auto-rotate
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
someone plz help!! #1 Im using a mac so do I use terminal? Ive downloaded the app to the sd card and have mod. rc30 jfv. 1.3 and root. i downloaded sdk to computer, put app browser.apk in tools folder. connected g1 through usb, did not mount sd card. have usb debugging enabled. i try the commands on terminal emulater on the g1 says "adb not found" and cant get past first command line on terminal says "adb: command not found" wat in the world else do I do??
[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
After I do the adb remount, I get an error that says device not found? All these commands bring up this error? I don't know how to get this thing to see my device. Any advice?
[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
Anyone have any ideas? I know I have root cuz I followed the instructions in the remove amazon.apk thread & its gone now but every single thing I type into the cmd now brings back the device not found error. I don't know if I need to type something to get root everytime or what. I have tried the browser instructions at least 20 times but all the same error
[G1 Android Development] MasterBunnyFu:
@jroid: You need to put the sdk/tools folder on your path, or use the full path to adb a la /path/to/sdk/tools/adb remount

@Beast84: You need the android drivers installed for adb to see the phone. if you're on windows, you can get it here
[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
Thanks I got the file now but where do I put the contents of the zip? It came with setup info but its all a bunch of characters randomly thrown together (to me at least). They might mean something but I have no idea

EDIT: Actually I already had this file in the Android SDK. Should it be somewhere else?
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
All you need to do is put the SDK folder on your desktop,then you connect by entering this cd C:\Users\owner\Desktop\android-sdk-windows-1.0_r2

next step enter cd tools

then this line adb shell rm /system/app/Browser.odex

last step enter adb push Browser.apk /system/app and thats it.

Note: Open the SDK Folder>Right Click on tools folder>Properties>Location thats what this is C:\Users\owner\Desktop\android-sdk-windows-1.0_r2 on my P.C,but yours could be different so double check.
[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
So this would do the same process as the original post? I don't want 2 versions of the browser on my device. I want everything working right tho. I don't see why it won't see my device
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
No it will only be one version i have this working an thats how i did it even opened the Rotate Browser.apk and added my own icon to go with my theme.

Remeber the auto rotate browser.apk should be in your tools folder.
[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
Thanks for the help but it still tells me device not found. I guess I'm just not meant to have this auto rotating browser.
[G1 Android Development] biglimpdog:
Hello, I need some help, I followed the instructions to the t. I'm using JFv1.31 and running my apps of the memory card. Well while loading this to my phone, something happen and I deleted the Browser, completely, Can anyone help me get my browser back or better yet get this rotating browser installed.

CMD Error after: adb push Browser.apk /system/app or /system/sd/app

"cannot stat 'Browser.apk' :No such file or directory
[G1 Android Development] UndeadCretin:
Hi,

Thanks for your updated browser build it works great. I am just fiddling around with the source code on a linux box and have been able to perform a build using make, which generates a Browser.apk file. When I try and use this instead of your Browser.apk it does not work and I see a "The application Browser has stopped unexpectedly" message.

Do I need to sign this Browser.apk with a particular key or do anything special to make it run? I am using the latest JF 1.31 release.

Thanks for any tips!

Trying to install the Autorotate Browser - Installing the SDK

Hi all,

I have downloaded the SDK from Google Android Page (I have rooted my phone and install the ADP1)...

Now what...How do I install it...?

Thanks, M
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
are you trying this on windows? if you are i'll try and explain it the best i can.

also thank you very much for this browser guys, works perfectly :D
[G1 Android Development] biglimpdog:
Nevermind, I got it! Great app, thanks!
[G1 Android Development] UnkzDomain:
Would it be possible for someone to also apply these patches to the Browser source so that it has AdBlock support and post a compiled APK file of it?

http://vogue-android.blogspot.com/2009/01/adblock-for-webkitandroid.html

Kinda off topic: Does anyone know how to extract the contents of a system.img file? I downloaded one that is supposed to have the browser with AdBlock Plus support already in it, but I don't want to flash it to my phone as it was made for an HTC Vogue and I don't want to have to migrate all my apps to my ext3 partition on my MicroSD card again...
[G1 Android Development] mbosaz:
Thanks for the reply, yes I am using Windows...Rgds, M

using command prompt, browse to the tools folder in the SDK.

Inside tools, you are going to pull the stock browser from the phone in case something goes wrong.

adb pull /system/app/Browser.apk Browser.apk

That will finish. Now rename Browser.apk that is in your tools directory to something like Browser.apk.orig.

The new browser that you want to install, place that in the tools folder.

Now in your command prompt, type: adb remount

This will remount your system as read/write

First let's remove the old browser and its odex files.

type: adb shell

This will put you in adb shell.

#cd /system/app/

#rm Browser.*

Both the apk and odex files should be gone. For good measure, do a dir listing to ensure.

#ls

#exit

Now you are going to push the new Browser over the old one.

Using command prompt in the tools directory type: adb push Browser.apk /system/app/Browser.apk

Now test the browser out. Open it up and make sure it auto rotates.

You should be good to go now :)

If the browser works you can either keep the orig browser.apk around just in case, or you can delete it...up to you.

Personally, I like to keep all orig apk files around as I like to modify everything; that way I have a fallback.
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
you beat me to it, and probably said it better than i could :D

good guide!

[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
Not to thread jack but I'm curious how you deleted the ringtones? You are talking about the factory ringtones, correct?
[G1 Android Development] neoobs:
I believe you can adb remount on a modded build and then rm the ringtones you don't want. I would keep one as a default. You could even adb push new ones.
[G1 Android Development] Beast84:
What would the command be? Would it be the same as the command to remove apk's? Would you recommend keeping one or just saying that? I don't need any of them. I have my own ringtones for all the applications I use. Would I be able to just pull the whole ringtone folder from the OS? If so, what command would I use for that?
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
no tools folder.

sorry if this is in the wrong place but i want to update to the auto rotate browser so this is where i am. every time i have installed the android sdk, uninstalled, re-installed the android sdk i have never found a tools folder. just;docs, android, documentation, license and release_notes. and the tools folder doesnt seem to be in any of those.
[G1 Android Development] Seenochino:
i keep getting this error. what can i do?

"cannot stat 'Browser.apk' : no such file or directory"
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Well i know many of you have done this but i havnt seen it posted in this thread so here it goes just in case.

To get auto rotate browser without going through all the command process.

1. Download Koush auto rotate browser, which you can find in this thread.

2. Open the browser zip file, I use winrar.

3. Copy all files from that zip.

4. Open any theme of your choice using winrar, goto app and open the browser.apk

5. Open the browser apk in winrar and paste the files that you have copied from Koush's browser.apk

6. Save, Now you must autosign your update.zip by following this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3178676

7. Now put the update.zip that you just signed into the root of your sdcard.

7. Turn off phone and boot using home+power

8. Now hit alt+s to update, when finished reboot and walaah!

This is for the people who are not comfortable using command prompt, works like a charm, has been tested on my phone using jf 1.31 rc30

? Has anyone els tried this and succeeded ?

Ive done this withought deleting the browser.odex file went to my browser and worked like a charm let me know if you have any problems.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
I figured there was an easier way. Thank you for posting that. Has anyone else tried this method?
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Your welcome, glad i can help.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
so, in the browser.apk file in the theme, do i need to delete the contents of it before pasting the contents of the auto-rotate browser.apk? or not leaving basically 2 of each file.
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
When you paste it should overwrite all files no need to delete any files,

Just paste rename to update.zip add file to the root of your sdcard and flash, have fun..
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
you ARE the man. maybe you could do the same for the muti-touch, lol.
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
lol maybe, ill look into that. :D
[G1 Android Development] carlitozway57:
Thanks Koush. Worked great.

I don't find the "easier" way above to be easier. I didn't even bother to try it, seems like more work than Koush's method in the first post. That worked great for me on my first try and didn't have to restart my phone. :)
[G1 Android Development] johnowa636:
What works for me is to just unzip the auto rotate browser.apk remove the browser image icon. Throw in the new theme icon, and throw back in the update.zip sign file and flash.
[G1 Android Development] Koush:
I updated my post to remove the backup steps. Now you can just install the Browser in 3 command line steps. If you can't figure that out, please sterilize yourself. :)

If you want to restore the original Browser, reflash modified RC30.
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Well i never said it was easier, i said its for those who do not feel comfortable with the command process, also on some occasions i had trouble doing it koush's way, not that i dont know what im doing just the fact that sometimes gave me problems. Just an alternative way, people love to have options. :D
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
I really appreciate people like diaz thinking of people like me who like this new stuff but find some of the steps difficult. I would have done it koush's way, however when I downloaded the android sdk I am never able to install it correctly and am never able to find the tools folder. And I guess I did something wrong. When I tried to update the browser.apl diaz's way it didn't work. Probably

my fault.
[G1 Android Development] Seenochino:
i have tried both install methods several times with no success. can someone take the hybrid theme and throw in the auto rotate browser for me? i would appreciate it!

on a side note, when i try to install it following the original instructions i keep getting an error on the last step.

when i try the second way (copying to theme) i get an error when running the update.

any suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] tehseano:
Alright, maybe I'm just a noob for this portion but, when I run "adb remount" in terminal emulator it tells me "adb: not found". Am I missing something obvious?
[G1 Android Development] Seenochino:
you dont run it from terminal emulator. you run it thorough cmd prompt on your cpu with your g1 connected
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Sorry i forgot one very important step after you have copied the files to the theme of your choice you must auto sign the update.zip here is the link for the autosign.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3178676
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
I apologize i left out one very important step, before adding the update.zip to your sdcard you must autosign it by following this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3178676

after that should install very easily.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Baticzek2k:
So I have a S8 G950F single sim model. Its rooted with an custom kernel. When I editet build.prob in /system and change simcardslot from 1 to 2 and rebooted the phone. It showed 2 Sim Cards. I bought an dual SIM-Slot from ebay and put 2 Sim cards in. And guess what, both were detected. The first one works fine, but the second sim is not able to connect to network, because the IMEI number for SIM2 is just 000000000000000. The first IMEI is fine. I saw on Youtube that you can flash the first IMEI to second IMEI, but then both IMEIs will be the same. Normally dual sim phones have dual IMEI numbers.

So.my question is, can i flash a second imei from my old S8 (motherboard has water damaged and is fried) to my current S8? Both IMEIs would be different and it should work fine.

I live in germany, and as long the phone is not lost or stolen, its legal
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Oswald Boelcke:
Hello and good evening, @Baticzek2k I've closed your thread.

Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, I've closed your thread! XDA doesn't allow and doesn't accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.

XDA Forum Rules (excerpt):

In future, please refrain from posting such requests or to start such discussions on XDA!

Remark: I'm also living in Germany, and I doubt the correctness of your statement that the change of IMEI's is legal in Germany.

Thanks for your cooperation!

[Thinkpad Tablet General] gcxt:
Hello everyone, I need help. As English is not my native language, please forgive me for grammar and spelling errors if there is any. I am a Chinese student and our school uses a modded version of the Lenovo TB-X605M for teaching, which has restricted recovery (unable to mount any storage device) , no recovery mode (you have to scan a QR code provided by the service provider to enter) and no developer options (which means I cannot use ADB).

Now I’d like to use it for more purposes, so I decided to flash it through EDL mode (9008).

I read from online that this tablet uses the programmer file “prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn”, but I can’t find this file, and I also can’t find ROM for fastboot flashing (where I can extract the file).

Does anybody have the programmer file or the ROM for fastboot flashing? In addition, will it be OK to use programmer files for the same SoC but designed for other OEMs? I need your help. Please comment below. Thank you very much.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Renate:
Did you try all these? https://github.com/bkerler/Loaders/tree/main/qualcomm/factory/msm8953

You might have a chance.

In any case, you need to start trying an EDL client (before you find a loader) to get the HWID and Hash.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] gcxt:
Thank you for replying.

No. I'd like to try it later as I don't want to risk too much.

For EDL Clients , will "QPST Tool" be OK? And does HWID and Hash do? I never read about them on Chinese Android forums. Anyway, I am going to check out if I can connect to it and try to find them in QPST Tool and write them down.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Renate:
I've never mixed it up with any of those tools.

I keep it simple, just a bare EDL client.

With them it's not likely you can click a button and accidentally flash all the partitions on your device.

Finding a loader will be the toughest part. You should start now instead of waiting for something to flash.

Just querying for HWID/Hash has zero risk.

Trying out random Firehose loaders has a very small risk.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] gcxt:
Thank you for your advice.

As I have said before, I have never heard of what is HWID and Hash and I don't know what they do. What I am going to do is to wipe userdata , and I have no idea whether I need to know about HWID and Hash to do this. I am going to try some loaders I found on a Chinese forum. I will start trying from some other Firehose files for the same SoC.

Moreover, I viewed the link in your first reply and found all these files are with the extension name .bin , instead of .mbn . Are they loaders? If they are , how should I use them?

I am just an ordinary student and I am not familiar with command lines. I seldom use it unless I can't do it with GUI.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Renate:
The HWID tells your processor, the Hash tells you who signed it.

To get a loader to work the two must be compatible.

I am not responsible for the content on Chinese forums.
[Android Head-Units] p1ceus:
Hi guys,

I have an old unit based on PX5 chipset with Hal9k firmware installed and the FM tuner reception kinda suck - doesn't matter if its stock FW or modified.

I know from the past that FW tuners in these units were crap. Has the situation changed over the years? What is currently the best unit/brand to choose from in terms of build quality, tuner reception and the ability to flash custom FW (as we all know that most of the OEM FW is kinda...), etc...?

Thanks!
