[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akalior88:
i am hoping maybe somebody can help me i searched the Q&A and i can't find an answer i am using a 4gb class 6 sd card i partion the sd card and the Cryogen rom shows the partition unavaliable i thought it was maybe the sdcard so i bought another one and still same issue. the problem started when i was loading the JACXrom from the Cryogen 3.6.8. I noticed as soon as i loaded the rom my apps were missing. so i used paragon to re format the sd card and it still doesnt read the partion. then i reformated the whole card... and still no luck...anybody have any thoughts?

hey guys im fairly new to this forum and this is my first post, well let me get to the point, i got my G1 lets say 2 months ago and ive heard a lot about "rooting" and i thought id give it try, i was just nervous about one thing and that is "bricking" so i was just wondering how easily it is to brick my phone? if that happened oh man i dont know what i would do..thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markley02:
If you read a lot and follow directions I think the chances are very slim. It seems like the main cause of a bricked phone is when someone tries to update to the danger SPL (the spl's you need to run a hero rom) before they update to the latest radio.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godson1227:
I'm in no way shape or form an expert on any of this stuff but I have my phone running at a high level I believe. So the advice I can offer as a novice is read read read read read search search search search search and read read read read some more and if you can't find the answer ask but make sure in the right forum or u may get "flamed" lol some ppl will but for the most part ppl will point u in the rite direction. also stick 2 the basics when flashing don't get lazy and skip steps they are there for a reason good luck :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teh Dust:
If by brick you mean having the phone not even go to a recovery screen then it is very hard.

If by brick you mean having android not boot, then very easy.

There are step by step tutorials out for everything now so it is unlikely you will run into problems if you have a bit of sense.

I would first recommend trying to get the JF1.5 rom and then immediatly upgrading to cyogens 1.4 recovery rom. the ums_enable command has saved me numerous times. What it does is enable usb through the recovery terminal so you can load up some different files or another rom and try again.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imbonez9:
And really if all you do is follow the directions and don't try to speed ahead thinking you know something everything should work out great :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Exactly!

When I first looked in to rooting I was also worried about bricking. Like others have said the main reason people brick is updating to haykuro's SPL without the cupcake radio (which is doubly stupid as they probably have a cupcake and should have had it already). After you have rooted and have installed the recovery image you can flash ROMs as much as you want, if your phone becomes unbootable because you messed with a file on your phone, you can just reflash. Btw, someone just posted a thread on how to brick their G1 because it seemed unbrickable :P
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beav_35:
Does anyone know what the difference between the 2.22.19.26I and the 3.22.20.17 (came on my Rogers Dream) radio is? Will I brick my phone if flash haykuro's SPL with the 3.22.20.17 radio?

Hey guys, I downloaded the new iDroid ROM from iQ22.

I like the Rom!!!

I also like the widgets from the newest JACxROM.

So what I did is:

I put the widgets from the JACxROM into the new Rom from iQ22 called iDroid

I then added a couple of games, ringtones, and notifications.

Nothing fancy here, I just thought the widgets alone would improve iQ22's new rom. Tell me what you think

Of course I deserve no credit at all.

I just cherish the opportunity to be able to post a rom on XDA Developers.

I added:

1. AutoRotate onOff

2. AutoSync onOff

3. Bluetooth Toggle Widget

4. Brightness Toggle Widget

5. GPS Toggle Widget

6. Lock Pattern onOff

7. Ringer Toggle Widget

8. Weather & Flip Clock

9. Weather Large

10. Weather Small

11. Weather Tiny

12. Wifi Toggle Widget

All credit goes to the "Pro's" JAC and iQ22

I plan on, in the future, doing a lot more work of my own.

http://www.4shared.com/file/123631892/a8c9dcc6/TommysRom_signed.html

This is the updated ROM with the camera, and camcorder apps working.

http://www.4shared.com/file/123681888/26d73588/TommysRom_fixed_signed.html

For those of you who like the Maxisma v2 ROM I added the same widgets to that ROM. Somehow it's probably the fastest rom I have run to this day.

[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
Why is it the people think by changing the color, fonts or adding widgets and apps they can label it a new "ROM"

:rolleyes:

This should be in themes, wallpapers AND APPS
[G1 Android Development] droiddv:
How should I label it? Honestly I dont know!!! I just thought the widgets alone would make the rom better. I will re-label it!!!
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
Hey its just my opion, leave it as it is and IF the MODS think it belongs somewhere else they will take care of it.

Its just one mans opion (mine) thats all.

For all we know Im wrong :p
[G1 Android Development] bob50963:
good job. also i think this is the right section. most of the "new" roms on here are just regular roms modified with new themes, widgets, ect. no point in reinventing the wheel.

will look forward to the next rom you customize
[G1 Android Development] eViL D::
I'm not sure how this can be labeled a theme.....

A ROM is a ROM, even if it's just modded.

Yeah I would not be offended if it was removed, or moved to a different area. I just got excited, my life in the last 2 months has revolved heavily around the android.
[G1 Android Development] jarcher2828:
You guys are awesome

I just want to say that all the roms comming out just keep getting better. I thought I would be set with just iq22, so I flashed, and not even 24 hours later we get an even better version.

Thanks to all devs who make this possible

[G1 Android Development] c-tang:
I have no camera or camcorder on this rom. But love everything else pls update with camera thanks
[G1 Android Development] droiddv:
Ok I fixed the camera, camcorder issue. I am going to upload the new ROM in just a few. Sorry about that. I didn't even notice. I didn't build the ROM I just made it prettier. :D

do anyone know what happen to the greenday rom i saw it yesterday now its gone can someone give me the link
[G1 Android Development] david1171:
you can probably find it on his site. i don't recall the exact name but search for one of his other themed roms and you should be able to get it from there.
[G1 Android Development] thugmafia:
:D hey TOMMY luv-ing the mod you did to this Rom. just worndering can you add the hero widget (album) that will be a plus if you can thanks again :D:D
[G1 Android Development] droiddv:
I like Iq22's work, His website is iQ22Dev.com. You will find GreenDay there!!! I also jumped into that Rom and added the widgets in this post. And of course just the few pimped things, I felt make my rom alot more fun.
[G1 Android Development] AGx-07_162:
I can agree. This isn't technically a "new" ROM. The only new thing about it is the name really. In a sense, it doesn't entirely fit into the theme's section either.
[G1 Android Development] droiddv:
Funny thing you ask that question, that hero album widget is precisely what got me into doing what I am doing, I have yet to figure it out yet. Give me a couple of days.

Hi,

I haven't managed to get BT internet sharing working between the TP2 and my laptop. I've been trying to create a BT personal area network that enables internet sharing. Whenever i select the internet sharing option, it claims my laptop doesn't support it.

This is bogus, because i had the same laptop with the same setup working just fine through my old Tytn II. You just enabled internet sharing and away you go! How HTC have managed to mess this up is baffling (and annoying!). Trouble is i need to route my laptop through my phone or it's not very useful.

Is there any way that is known to work?

Thanks for any ideas,
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rick#2:
Don't know if this is feasible in your situation, but can't you just use the USB cable and ICS? Tethering through BT would be slower and less reliable than using the cable.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] monx®:
It is easy but I'm not sure if you aware about the new widcomm btooth settings applet. In the 3rd tab, select Networking Manager > Share Internet Connection > Follow On Screen > Done.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lombardo8:
I am having the same problems and I have tried the network manager > share internet connection but no luck. what makes my case worse is that i have the Toshiba bluetooth stack. any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] makkekoala:
gotta try that with tp2:) btw yesterday when i tried to send some files from tp2 to my old hermes (tytn:p) it didn't work because tp2 claims 'device does not support a suitable service to perform this operation':confused:. however the bt-link between my lap-top and tp2 or tytn works fine and i have used the internet sharing many times with my old tytn:cool:

so maby the are some issues with the newer bt? dunno
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lombardo8:
Eureka! I have manged to get a connection and i am posting this over it. But I tried so many things that I am going to have to delete the connection and start all over again so I can create a step by step guide for anyone that may be intersted. Test enviroment is TP 2 WM 6.1 (obviously) and Toshiba laptop with Toshiba stack running Vista.

You have the same problem as i did if you will get the error msg 'remote device does not support bluetooth PAN' and have a toshiba bluetooth stack. I should be back soon. Wish me luck so I dont mess up everything.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lombardo8:
1. Enable BT on TP2 and make device discoverable

2. On laptop right click BT icon --> options --> General --> select PAN networking service

--> yes --> ok.

3. On laptpp right click BT icon --> add new connection --> custom mode --> next --> select your TP2 --> next --> select group ad-hoc network --> next --> next --> finish.

4. On your device --> open ICS --> select bluetooth PAN --> select your PC from list of BT devices --> accept connection on PC.

You should be good to go at this stage cos it works for me. If you dont mind leaving the PAN networking icon on your taskbar then you only need to do step 1 and 4 anytime you want to share your internet connection otherwise it will be step 1, 2 and 4.

Good luck and I hope someone finds this useful. I also hope in the future there will be an easier and more straightforward way to connect. There probably is now but I just dont know it. Half bread they say is better than none. cheers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] haongusa:
If the fix from lombardo8 does not work/apply to you - try the following:

1) Setup/ connect an ordinary BT serial port from your PC to the phone.

2) Use the Widcomm BT applet as monx suggested above to setup the rest.

I have found that I cannot initiate any BT activity from my phone to the PC without a connection made from the PC to the phone first - even though the PC and phone both use Broadcomm stacks!

Also my Tytn II worked perfectly with my PC so likely not to be a PC problem.

Hope this helps...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] obb:
lombardo8 - you are the dude!

this worked! indeed, i too am running the toshiba BT stack. it's the one i found before worked. I had tried creating all sorts of new connections from the PC settings, but the difference you have found is in the BT options/general settings.

Strangely, the "select PAN networking service" box was not checked. i guess this explains why PAN networking wasnt active. however, what is strange is that this must have worked before using my old TyTn II without this setting.

So once this is enabled, it makes a connection fine!

with regard to wire tethering, this is always a handy fallback, but i have found that BT usually worked quite well, once set up and working, additionally you dont need a wire.

For the life of me i cannot get it to work with my work notebook running Win7 and my netbook running Win7 & OSX :(

It's driving me nuts :(

Why can't they just leave it simple. Damn Bluetooth 2.1 :mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Scann69:
Is there any chance somebody can have a .cabs to install back the old internet sharing where there is a Bluetooth PAN in the drop down list. I figured that would be alot easier.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Kork:
I had the same issues with TP2 and a Mac Book Pro. It works perfectly on Windows XP on this machine but not in OSX. I found a solution for OS X though:

Thanks for the info but now i'm getting the error msg below

"Failed to establish Internet Sharing connection to remote devices as it supports only Network Access Point (NAP) mode"

What does that mean and how do i configure it in OSX?? Appreciate any help with this as i need ISC in OSX.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Kork:
Well it means that TP2 thinks that your Macbook offers the internet sharing and not the TP2. I get that same message until i kill the blued and tick that mark again. Then it works until next reboot where i have to repeat the sequence again. Which OSX Version and hardware are you using btw?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Kork:
Seems the new Snow Leopard fixes some issues with bluetooth. I re-paired my TP2 with Snow Leopard and this works like a charm out of the box. No more fiddling with the bluetooth daemon. Let's see if it stays that way :)

Bluetooth ICS Windows 7 WinMo 6.5

I'd like to chime in here. I've flashed several 6.5 ROMs, but with the 23016 and 23017 sys roms I can't seem to connect bia BT ICS. The USB cable works fine. It seems that my netbook does not acquire an IP address from the TouchPro. I'd sure like to find a fix for this as I use this technology all the time.

@izzyforreal

see my post above. did u disabled dhcp on ur netbook bt pan profile?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] skamin:
Hi monx!

How do you disable DHCP on the PC's BT PAN profile? I'm using Widcomm/Broadcom firmware 2.1.211.299 by the way.

And if I do disable it, how will the PC get an IP address??

Thanks,

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] skamin:
I've found the solution here. Not using the "Internet Sharing" application though but a couple of nice hacks. IT ACTUALLY WORKS!!!

See attached ZIP with files and that post quoted.

- Shay
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] skamin:
Update: today I found that this solution creates a problem when trying to connect (not at the same time of course!) via USB cable using the regular Internet Sharing application. That's too bad, I played around with it all day and I can't figure out what goes wrong there, but for sure this is what screws up the USB cable connection.

If anyone knows how to make both work on the same device alternately, please let me know...

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] maseo:
The only thing i can tell is that Bluetooth PAN does work with the Rhodium with my Netbook.

it's just not located under 'Internet Sharing' but under:

Settings > Bluetooth > The third tab > Networking Manager > Select 'Shate Internet connection' > select bluetooth device > select your connection (GPRS i.e) > done.

It's just a long way to go where i was hoping i could fine a shorter way to set up the bluetooth pan.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] skamin:
I don't have these settings on my Touch Pro (w/ latest EnergyROM).

Just to make sure: are you saying that you have successfully enabled your notebook to connect to Internet via your mobile device's cellular connection, or vice versa? I'm only interested in the latter and there seems to be some confusion on this thread, I believe.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] maseo:
If your question is; Have i been able to go on the internet on my netbook through my Rhodium's cellular connection shared via bluetooth, the answer is yes.

Netbook > Phone with shared connection > Internet

If you want to go on the internet via your netbooks internet connection, try to create a private network and share that internet connection.

That might work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] skamin:
Alright, so we are talking about the same thing - I'm interested in "Netbook > Phone with shared connection > Internet", I just suspected you were into the other thing.

My problem stands...

Which ROM are you using which is enabling you to play with this setting that you mentioned - 'Share Internet connection'?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Sleuth255:
Interestingly, I had to enable it on mine (toshiba bluetooth stack) to get it to work. The default PAN server uses a static address. I needed to get DNS servers/gateways from my TP2. I just went into network properties for the PAN network and changed the static address to use DHCP. Works great. Now for my netbook...

So, my steps were:

Enable PAN server on my laptop (see earlier post in this thread for howto).

Go into network properties for the PAN network that's created and change static to DHCP

Set up the connection with ICS or Widcomm on TP2. Choosing Bluetooth PAN in ICS simply executes the Widcomm network setup wizard btw...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] maseo:
Sorry for the late response, any chance you've already found it out in the meanwhile ?

Just to clarify, im using my Rhodium's HDSPA/UMTS connection to browse on the Internet on my Netbook.

Im using the Eneryrom (the latest one now).

I go to the Comm Manager, Select the menu 'Settings' then 'Bluetooth'. I pick my bluetooth laptop and select 'Bluetooth Networking', then i select 'share internet' (or something like that, can't check it now), select which connection (internet GRPS), allow it to connect and done.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pwisseh:
Good afternoon all,

I have set up my ICS as per this thread only now internet wont work on my laptop.. I have a Bluetooth stack in my laptop, Internet Sharing turned on on my TP2 and all set up, it has a connection with my phone but because of some reason, when I go on internet on my laptop it does not work..

Can anyone help me out here?

(When trying to connect, I ofcourse turn off my wireless network connection on my laptop because otherwise it would clearly connect on that instead of my phone)

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gman411:
I found a way

First set up a pair from your mac to the hd2. In the advance tab, I added a serial port modem type. Goto your system preference/network/bluetooth(not bluetooth pan), click connect. You should already have a gprs profile with the ecp.tmobile.com (apc) as your default.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lengfengfly:
I had the same problem when sending file from TP2 to my notepad. Right click the Bluetooth Icon in the computer, and click "receive a file", then resend the file and succeeded!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Learic:
I haven't found one that is "finger" friendly but another ebook reader that is available is Microsoft Reader. It uses a format known as LIT but most of the books I see that are good quality are based on Sony's format which are the LRF files. Unfortunately, I haven't found one that reads the LRF format and the converters that I found do not support a conversion of it either..

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 8525Smart:
I like Adobe Reader LE 2.5. It is surprisingly fast (considering Acrobat's notorious slowness on the desktop) and the reflow option is extremely useful (if only there was a way to save the zoom and the reflow option...).

The only other PDF reader I tried is Foxit, but I just don't like it. It's significantly slow (again, surprising considering Foxit's speed on the desktop) and the massive advertisement on the top is rather annoying.

I love eReader from the fictionwise folks. I have been using it for years. Check it out at http://www.ereader.com. The reader is free and the books are reasonably priced. You can configure the reader to look the way you want it to look. I like black text on white background but they have a bunch of themes and you can make your own theme.
