Oh! Great idea! Maybe we could convince them to slide us the driver source code...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] enkoopa:
:) I wish. I'd imagine they'd lose their job over that.

If we can find out what sort of chips the EVE uses.. someone needs to disect their phone.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
Dissection over here. :)

It's running on a Qualcomm MSM7200A SOC.

Ya, they'd probably lose their jobs. Still worth a try - maybe one of them is disgruntled. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] enkoopa:
Great, that's the same chipset as the HERO. So if they get some 2.0 drivers, we can poach them somehow! HERO and DROID will get all the love I imagine.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
Ya, that's why I was trying the hero 2.0 rom yesterday.

I won't know for sure till I can see how it feels in my hands, but the Droid/Milestone seems like the device to beat right now. I'm considering buying an unlocked Milestone once they're available in Canada, and then handing the Eve off to my wife. It'll all depend on feel though - I find the iPhone feels too big to me, so the Droid may feel even bigger. :s
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] enkoopa:
Droid/Milestone definitely the one right now. I'd have picked one up if they were available.

Will the Milestone have north american 3g bands though?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
Yep. Coming soon to Telus.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] enkoopa:
Wonder what the no-contract pricing will be like. And, if it can be unlocked lol. I'll be sticking with Rogers.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] enkoopa:
Alrighty, I've got a vanilla eclair running in the emulator.

Any tips on how to get it on the EVE? Or is there even any point right now if the hero rom bricked yours?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
Nice!

The Fastboot method Routehero talked about is probably the easiest...

Just wipe mtd2 and reboot. Phone should go in to fastboot mode. You use the fastboot cmd from linux and have it try to boot the eclair kernel.img.

It's destructive, and you'll probably loose everything on your phone when/if you have to reflash back to factory defaults...

Though... If you take an image of mtd2 before you wipe it you may be able to put it back on there with fastboot. Sorry I can't be more specific, but I won't have time to play with this and work out the process till the weekend.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dsixda:
Just got the Eve a few hours ago. Just wondering -- where is the Terminal Emulator found?? It's not in any of the program shortcuts. If i go to system/app, there actually is a Term, but it doesn't do anything.. it says "Main activity not found for com.android.term"... The Market doesn't allow me to install a copy of Terminal Emulator on top of what already exists.

EDIT: Nevermind... it's answered in the Wiki!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
You need to do fastboot -w a few times to wipe the phone. It seems like it didn't wipe properly when you did it the first time.

Also, for stuff like this you should go to the OpenEtna forum - you're not likely to receive much help posting here.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] raburton:
I've got nandroid working on windows under cygwin. Hopefully this will allow people to more easily backup their phones and so more easily use/test new releases.

I've attached an updated copy of nandroid that is modified to work. A default basic install of cygwin + netcat is all you need. Then follow the nandroid instructions as normal.

The problem using cygwin normally is that you can't create the proper image files (created from the extracted tar files pulled from the device) because permissions and ownership in cygwin is more limited than on linux (files can't be owned by non-existant users, etc.). I've implemented a dirty hack to get around this. We use a verbose listing from the tar file to get the permissions and ownership of it's files, then when we make the image we use these instead of the actual files now incorrect ones. The dirty part is that we don't read the tar file directly, the script uses tar -tv to get the details and we parse the text output. This would make it sensitive to changes in the format of the output.

I have tested this on my own phone and done a backup and restore to my phone and it worked perfectly. However use at your own risk. The script deliberately doesn't delete the tar file from the backup, because if something goes wrong you could always find a linux box and reconvert the tar to img on that. It should still work fine on linux too, I've added to the script rather transformed it to windows only.

Richard.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pykler:
nandroid is awesome, thanks @zacpod
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
Thanks, but I didn't write the script - I just modified it for use on the GW620.

I think Raburton probably made more changes than I did to make it run with Cygwin, actually.

It was made originally by Infernix and Brainaid - You can see the original Nandoid over at this post. :)

Hi for somereason for the first time i got a text message from my provider (rogers) saying I am at the 80 percent of my data plan usage. When I saw this message around 3 hours since recieving it because I was sleeping at the time. I checked my data usage on the rogers site as soon as i read it and it already jumped to 480mb of data... my usage is 500mb per month but if i got a message saying 80 percent which is 400mb and i check 3 hours later and the phone used extra 80mb all of a sudden when it was on standby... is there any suggestion on how i can resolve this problem? I never had this problem with my stock 1.5 but now im running the 6.1rc build

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cwhchew:
Firstly,

I've compiled information across our forum, and have produced a non-developer Wiki containing information about OpenEtna.

The address is : http://wiki.openetna.com

You'll find guides, recommended applications and all sorts of useful information there. If you are able to do a translation of the articles, it would be greatly appreciated.

We even have an openetna flasher !

Secondly,

I know many of you have been asking for help by commenting on the posts and pages in the website. I would love to reply them if I had time, but I would recommend going to http://forum.openetna.com to seek help. We have friendly people in the forum who are resourceful and will be likely to answer your questions quickly (:

Thirdly,

For a "bleeding edge" version of OpenEtna (aka Nightly Builds), you may grab a copy of the latest build over at http://nightly.openetna.com

Lastly,

OpenEtna 6.1-rc4 has been released. Get it from http://code.google.com/p/openetna/downloads/list
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Giuvi72:
This morning I've noticed that website, forum and nightly builds accounts has been suspended. Only project page is online...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cwhchew:
yup. thats right.

apparently the forum has been causing some excessive cpu load , so they disabled my account for the time being.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Giuvi72:
Great news. Thanks for your efforts.

I'm beginning to try nightly builds, but I'm experiencig several problems with my SD card (reboots, apps disappearing and so on)

However you are doing a really great work and I'm sure we'll have soon a perfect release!

downgrade from V10G

hi folks, i've upgraded succesfully the rom of my LG gw620g from the one it has (v10a) to the latest free rom v10g.

The problem is that v10g works under 900mhz (for calls and such thing) and here in Argentina we have 850mhz, after googling a bit, i've found that i had to install v10h (which works under 850mhz) but now when im trying to "reflash" my phone, the LG Util Updater always gets stucked at 40% when analyzing the phone, log says:

14:08:36 : Phone Mode(1)

14:08:36 : *****GetPhoneType Start*****

14:08:48 : Phone Type : QCT

14:08:48 : *****GetPhoneModel Start*****

14:08:51 : Phone Bin Version : V10G_00

It seems that, for some reason, its not being able to get the IMEI from my phone, i have currently installed froyo 2.2.1 its supposed to have root access by default so i dont think this is a permission issue...

any idea? im stuck and cant use my new phone no more :(

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Tetsuo6995:
Go on Ubuntu and flash from there.

At least you can be 100% sure you won't have any driver problem (there is an automated flasher on the forum for linux).

I would advice you rather come on the Open Etna forum to ask such questions as this topic is mostly dedicated to developers discussing on GW620 hacks and mods.

GW620R Major Issues

Hey,

I've been having major issues with my Eve. More details can be seen in the openetna forum under Issues/LG Eve will not turn on (I can't post the link as I'm a new user).

The guys at openetna have been trying to help me out, I was running their latest official release when the problem started.

The quick and dirty; my phone will not turn on except in emergency mode. Computer can detect the phone but using different LG utilities I have not been able to flash. When I connect and don't force emergency the phone is still detected and drivers are loaded but the backlight does not turn on and flashing still fails.

Hopefully someone on here might have some insight into my problem.

URGENT HELP!

i figured this might be relevant to this thread since its regarding the korean 2.2 update. also i must state im a bit of a noob at this stuff, all i can do is follow instructions.

i installed the update using the lg utils method (lg-phones.org/how-to-flash-lg-eve-etna-gw620.html) and it went smoothly. the only problems (outside annoying little bugs like a korean text warning when wifi turns off) were that the camera flash didnt work, and sms were automatically turned into mms after 90 characters (something i think is just to do with the app).

but then yesterday morning my sms messaging service went completely bonkers. my dad received a couple of my text messages, but then from then on could not receive or even send me anything. i have this same problem with some other people, while some people receive my texts as an unknown number and so cant reply, while a couple receive and send texts fine. this has pretty much crippled my phone as i mainly use sms.

i have no idea what to do. i tried reinstalling the update to no avail, tried resetting to factory settings, and even a vain attempt to downgrade the software. is there anyone who knows how i can fix this, even if it means i go all the way back to software version 10b. i see that lg have released kernal info or something about android 2.2 (the post above me). is that something to do with upgrading the phone to 2.2 and can i replace the korean software with that one?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] N2k1:
Do not use the official update!

You loose the possibility to go back or fastboot.

If you want to upgrade, just do it with fastboot and .h.t.t.p._././. openetna.mayix.net/n2k1/firmware/FroyoDump/

Or if you want to upgrade full, so use .h.t.t.p._././. openetna.mayix.net/n2k1/firmware/WayBack/

Both will save your fastboot.

First version will save your old AMSS so you can back to V10..

Serial port under sim card

Hi guys.

Heres my first and probably last post

After some toiling over finding what the hell port is under the sim card, I've finally found it. it's /dev/ttyMSM2

You probably all know that but hey, i spent at least half an hour reading through this messy thread to no avail, just messages by zacpod saying he's trying to find it ;)

I found it using the 'android serialport api project' on google code. That plus the arduino IDE serial monitor.

Also, i managed to solder wires on without too much difficulty, and snipped my sim card a little to accomodate them, and all still closes nicely and the sim still works. They go into an £8 RS-232 to USB converter thing from ebay. It's literally just the famous FTDI chip, 2 leds and a usb plug on a pcb :)

anyway, have fun with this port.
