[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hppyfnbll:
I was just going to post about this. I cannot seem to get any of the rooting methods to work with this phone. Here is the info:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP30000)

CPLD-10

RADIO-2.22.19.261

May 27 2009, 19:06:41

Any help would be appreciated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
You can't root the MyTouch 3G due to what haykuro described as a "perfect" SPL.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ashshlay:
That's true. Haykuro is saying that it is the perfected SPL on his blog. Don't fret everyone as this just makes dedicated hackers like Haykuro more interested in being the ones to root it.

Go Haykuro Go!!!! I know you've put in hours upon hours of hard work rooting our beloved devices and moving us forward in the field.

Thanks.

That doesn't mean I forgot others who have put hard work in. I just wanted to let Haykuro know as he has been missing from our scene because of the poor treatment or lack of credit when due.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
I'm not sure you comprehend what the SPL is since its not as clear for Android as it is for WinMo. The SPL allows you to overwrite the entire system and the modified SPL's allow you to flash unsigned. Now the SPL resides in a part of the device that stores other vital low level software like the radio and such.

In order to flash the SPL, the new SPL has to take the same exact place as the old one using the same exact memory addresses or else it will overwrite the other vital low level like the radio and one incorrect byte in the wrong place could cause you to be unable to make calls, etc.

This is where it gets to be a pain in the ass because the SPL is what allows you to write to low level parts of the phone and more importanly use the USB port as a serial port. If the SPL is flashed badly and you can't communicate via USB anymore you now have brick unless you know JTAG. Another problem is if the radio or anything else overwrites part of the SPL causing a brick.

In other words you will probably be able to achieve root via a software exploit but if the SPL cannot be replaced then you will never be able to flash a new ROM.

Hope that helps. sry for being so long winded :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] toborux:
how about after achieving root (via software exploit), we replace the recovery.img with a modified one via adb shell? Is that possible?

(n00b here)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
The SPL will not allow it to be written although there may be a solution like fakesigning ROMs using some sort of security hole.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] masterveovis:
like previously mentioned the SPL will not allow it. So until a great mind like Haykuro finds away of replacing the SPL with a modified one not in an update.zip or a fastboot flash it will not be posible till then. Maybe a nbh file might be possible but currently there is not one that is available for this device yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
nope cuz .nbh = updates.zip for winmo and works almost the same way
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frost785:
mytouch

rogers started a fund raiser i think we need to start another one?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bahnburner:
Has anyone tried using a Goldcard to flash Dreaimg.nbh or another system image? It's been done on the Dream, I don't see why it would be any different on the MyTouch.

Someone needs to figure this out. This is the only thing keeping me from buying a MyTouch. Someone help free me from my loose hinges and inexcusable lack of system memory on my dream...
[G1 General] hettbeans:
This much is what I have clear...

·Format my SD card for FAT32

·Flash down to RC29

·Download recovery.img

·Download hard SPL

·Copy both to the root of my SD card

·Restart, go through the telnet process to gain Root

·Apply the Hard SPL

I already know what build I want - JFv1.51 ADP

However, I've been unable to find instructions on how to install it once I've gained root. I keep hearing some stuff about the radio and whatnot and I'm a little lost. :3
[G1 General] Flak_Munky:
Blarg. Had a nice reply typed up almost ready to submit, and we had a power outage at work. Guess I get to type it up again.

After you gain root access, you need to download the radio update from here and the JF 1.51 update from here (assuming you don't have it already).

Copy the radio zip to your SD card and rename it to update.zip. Turn the phone off and boot it into recovery mode (Home + Power). Apply the radio update with Alt+S. Reboot the phone with Home + Back when prompted.

After it boots back up, move/delete/rename the radio zip and copy the JF 1.51 update to the SD card and rename that to update.zip. Reboot the phone into recovery mode again. Press Alt + W to wipe data (can't remember if this is needed or not for going from RC29 to JF 1.51), and then press Alt + S to apply the update. Reboot again when prompted, let it boot up and you should be good to go.

If you decide to go to other builds, the process will be the same.
[G1 General] ajmhowser:
I have a question along these lines. I did all of this and it updated fine, but I lost root. Was there a step I left out or something that I needed to do after?
[G1 General] Flak_Munky:
So long as you followed everything in the rooting guide here on XDA to the letter, you should have root. Applying the radio and build image should not remove root access.

To verify if you do, open up the terminal emulator and type su. If it comes back with a # prompt, you have root (Superuser Whitelist may come up asking if you want to allow the action, tell it to allow the action).
[G1 General] hettbeans:
And it's safe to flash the radio after the spl?
[G1 Apps and Games] androidmonkey:
Anyone seen a better Calendar widget than the default?
[G1 Apps and Games] turboyo:
Depends on your opinion I guess .. I use retro date (part of retro clock widget) which to me is better, says the date and uses two spots. When I click on it it goes to calendar. Some may not like it because it doesnt display the days events or to-dos, or w/e is on the calendar but to me its short and simple..:)
[G1 Apps and Games] Henchman:
You have a couple of choices with hero.
[G1 Apps and Games] the1wingedangel:
If you have not tried the calender widget that is included in the free app "Quick Calendar" you might take a look. I preferred it to the stock one.
[G1 Apps and Games] yren004:
I'll go for quick calendar. it displays two upcoming events.
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
Has Quick Calendar's widget UI improved? Last time I used it, it was just a brick, not much better looking than the default widget.
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
I'm surprised it's taken this long to create a calendar widget that displays agenda in a non ****ty way. :(
[G1 Apps and Games] Diceman4:
I think Hero's calendar is much better than the standard android one
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
That solves nothing for those of us that would rather not run Hero.
[G1 Apps and Games] q426669:
However you may have a better time getting a dev to port the hero widget to cupcake then getting one to write one from scratch. The Hero widgets are very nice IMO.
[G1 Apps and Games] dashed:
I would love to see the Hero widget ported over. I cant believe no one has made a better calendar widget. I need something that will show three or more events at a time. Quick Calendar looks better then it used to but I always get force closes from it. I also hate how the widget's size depends on how long the event name is.
[G1 Apps and Games] turboyo:
The anitime widget it nice just doesnt show events but it shows the entire month, and the clock is nice to and comes with it
[G1 Apps and Games] androidmonkey:
Me to.

Has anyone ported any of the Hero widgets over? That would be nice.

Full calendar doesn't do much for me, especially a clock when you already have a clock in the top bar. More events is what I am looking for. The default widget only shows 1 event.
[G1 Apps and Games] sagementor:
I use Agenda View in the Calendar. Can anyone tell me how to swiftly jump to the next month's Agenda. Now I have to switch to the month view mode, then click a day on the month, and then come back to the Agenda View. It is very inconvenient.
[G1 Apps and Games] Stigy:
I use the tCalendar Widget.

Puts the date and day of the week as the Calendar icon. Perfect for what I need.
[G1 Apps and Games] giantcrazy:
Have to agree with those that say the stock widget stinks - I'm also in need of one that would show a few more events.

What bugs me is there was a widget like that when Cupcake was first released, and I can't find it anywhere now.
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
Just use Sweeter home.
[G1 Apps and Games] weezerisock:
Again, not a good solution for those of us who would rather not use home replacements. All the people are looking for in here is a widget. I've used sweeter home and its very amazing, but the lag that comes with home replacements I'd just rather not have.
[G1 Apps and Games] androidmonkey:
agreed. lag = bad :)
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
AniWidget has both a plain "Calendar" and a "Google Agenda" components, but the latter one is just a clone of the stock widget, with fancier transparency. Hardly worth the $3.
[G1 Apps and Games] athurdent:
forecast widget now comes with a cool calendar :)

[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Those were from a few of the leaked Magic builds that haykuro put out a million years ago. After a few revisions they disappeared and I've wanted them back since.
[G1 Apps and Games] moosefist:
They were nice looking, but if i remeber correctly they didnt update events unless you trashed the widget and reset it on the homescreen or either reboot the phone...

The dude had them in a coule of his builds early builds too, and they were osted to some of tthose early threads if they haven't been trashed. He might still have it if someone pm's him...
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Yeah, I remember it did do that. A shame because that is exactly what a lot of us are looking for.
[G1 Apps and Games] moosefist:
I think this is it, I haven't tested it, because I dont want it. they are the Calender.apk and CalendarProvider.apk from haykuros 4.5 saphire build (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjcD...EB2F8223&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=10)

If someone wants to try this out just to see if it works I'd appreciate it... maybe i'll test it myself.

I attached it to the post and put it on sharebee http://sharebee.com/ede8d7ad
[G1 Apps and Games] JackD3ath:
Ill give it a shot, will edit with results.
[G1 Apps and Games] innerspace:
looking forward to the results... I'm not bright enough to do this myself apparently.
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
Works fine on CM 3.9.5:

I think I'm keeping it.

To install unpack both files to any location on your hard drive ("c:\" will do just fine). Then back up the original APKs (optional):

adb remount
adb pull /system/app/Calendar.apk c:\Calendar.apk.orig
adb pull /system/app/CalendarProvider.apk c:\CalendarProvider.apk.orig

And then push the new ones:

adb remount
adb push c:\Calendar.apk /system/app
adb push c:\CalendarProvider.apk /system/app

Remove old Calendar widget from the home screen and re-add it.
[G1 Apps and Games] KPeriod:
It seems to work fine for me. It's a 1x4 widget that appears to display your next two events. The actual calendar app is way better than the default one.

Is the broken one people are talking about above this?

http://phandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/rosie4-calendar-widget.jpg

Because that's exactly what I'd be looking for.
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
In what way? I don't see any difference (other than the screwed up month name in Month view).
[G1 Apps and Games] moosefist:
I am glad its working. It was a pain in the butt to find the haykuro 4.5g build. Are the events updating when you add one for that day? Or are you having to reset the widget?

Also what do you mean that the calendar app is better?
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
Nope, it's not updating :( Back to stock I go.
[G1 Apps and Games] jugg2000:
Lol... true.

Come on folks... answers, we need answers!
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
If I have time, this week-end, I'll create this (just a picture at this time, no code at all).

It will be at 0.99€.

Are you interested ?

Does I launch it ?

It will be customizable (lot of options, skinable ...)
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
Right now, I'm using one of Quick Calendar's widget, which is 1x2 (1 vertical space, 2 horizontal spaces). I probably won't use a widget that's any bigger than that, since the rest of that screen is completely full of other widgets and shortcuts.

If you were to make a 1x2 version, I'd definitely use it!
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Sure, it will at least have 4x1, 4x2, and 4x3.
[G1 Apps and Games] amarkow2:
ill be all over this widget...looks really nice...skinnable would be great to be able to change opacity and colors...having all the background options like you have in your weather widget would be PERFECT!
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
I'd use it.
[G1 Apps and Games] blazzr:
I'll buy that for a dollar! ;)

Ok, an Euro is also acceptable. :)
[G1 Apps and Games] sputnik99:
Me, toooooo!

what will be the name of the app?

KoxxCal widget?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:

no !!!!!!!!

[G1 Apps and Games] amarkow2:
this is great...i have been waiting for a widget that gives me a similar calendar screen as the todaytheme for blackberries...as long as this thing can go transparent this will be epic...first one on the scene with a great calendar widget...ull make a nice amt of dough!

I was finally convinced to register after months of enjoying this place's help as a lurker, because I just had to reply to this.

I plunked down the change for your Weather app the other day, and loved it. Just wanted to show support and let you know I'll be donating for this calendar app on Day One if you go through with it. :)

(if it obeys/displays multiple calendar's color settings for entries that would be the best!)

(also 1v X 4h setting)

(you're the best)
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
I'd buy it.
[G1 Apps and Games] moosefist:
$1 is more than worth it. SOLD!
[G1 Apps and Games] amarkow2:
i tried this as well...how do i get back to stock?

oops i forgot to back the apks up...ne one wanna do me a favor and post them???
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
Just extract them from your ROM's zip.

Thanks Guys.
[G1 Apps and Games] muzicman0:
I use the pure calendar widget. it's a paid app (~$1.50), it is a full screen widget, that allows skinning, etc. I have 5 home screens, so I don't mind using a full screen for it. worth the money for me.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
I've got Ubuntu up and running and I'm willing to rebuild the kernel to enable tethering.

Problem 1 is that I have not received my Magic yet

Problem 2 is that I have no idea what I need to do

So who wants to help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
I'll help. I've got tethering working using Azilink, but it would be nice to get it working using the Hero's built-in tethering option. Here's my post at ubuntuforums.org:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1202059

So are you rebuilding the kernel to get the iptables? I can't even get to make Ubuntu see the Magic as a communications device now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
It took me about 15 minutes to get the SDK up and running on Ubuntu 32 bit but I don't know where to find the source for the kernel or evena copy of the kernel itself. Once I have those it shouldn't take more than 5 minutes to compile the kernel including iptables. In fact if I had the source to a kernel that does allow tethering it would be even faster because I could just drag and drop what I need into the build directory. I haven't seen the source but I think that the HTC branded kernel only differs by a few files and it might even be easier to move the HTC files to the Google kernel. Need more help and testers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Do you have the port tools? They allow you to unpack the boot.img. I'll upload the port tools for you:

http://www.mediafire.com/?fnzdtnj4gmy

Just put all of the tools in your /android/tools folder.

To unpack the boot.img, you just have to run this command:

That's it. Good-luck. Messing around with the kernel is way above my know-how.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
@hotweiss thanks a bunch
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
This guide shows you how to push the IP tables on the Magic:

http://android-unleashed.com/2008/1...d-g1-phone-with-iptables-no-proxy-needed.html
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
do I just need to incorprate the iptables binary with the kernel when I build it. Again I haven't seen either kernel to compare them.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Haven't done it myself yet, but it looks like it's just an issue of following a few steps. The biggest problem right now is to make Ubuntu see the Magic as a modem.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
again I don't have my magic yet so I can't comment on that but if anyone has a google branded version could you please check and see if you can get ubuntu to recognize it as a modem. if so then we know that it has only to do with the kernel itself.

EDIT: Also I can't get unpack-H.pl to work, i keep getting bash: /home/sammy/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r2/tools/unpack-H.pl: Permission denied
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
right click on unpack-H.pl, set the permissions, and make it executable.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shwan_3:
well you dint need go all the steps , just pushing iptables and insmod should be enough if you use wifi tethering app. but is the kernel in htc magic and g1 the same , do they run the same binary ?

i will check it but dont know if it works.

Edit :

No ipfilter in the kernel = not working

the binary itself works just fine (strange)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
its because the kernel is missing netfilter too. there are actually 3 things we require for this to work. we need to build netfilter as a module, build iptables as a module and then include the iptables binary so that other programs can talk to it. unfortunately i don't have a magic but if you could pm me your im screen names we could do this faster
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Things will be complicated by the fact that the Rogers and T-Mobile Magic's are different. I'm still confident that we'll work it out.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sammypwns:
hotweiss the google branded ion does not require these modules

Anyway I just got my Touch Pro today and having problem with changing the language. My dad bought it for me from Taiwan and I can read mandarin/chinese fine but i prefer to be in english.

I did some Google search and apparently you can't change the language of the phone due to the rom or something?? I think it's stupid coz every fone i owned be4 can change languages. In fact, this is the first time i've seen and used a fone that doesn't let u change the language and it's quite disappointing.
