Also nice to see a post with a positive rooting experience. Unfortunately I think the 2% that have issues are making it seem like rooting is really tough, when really t just comes down to paying attentionm

hi im trying tether mine g1's gps with debian linux over adb. i dont know how to setup gpsd.

adb installed fine,

so im doing adb devices

adb forward tcp:2947 tcp:2947

i can see gps log in gpstether.

dmesg gives no info about /dev/ttyUSB nothing only scsi storage etc.

more info about gpstether:

thanks for any help

info from webpage:

GPS Tether for G1!

This was intended as a quick and dirty implementation of gpsd for Android as i wanted to show the gps data on my laptop without having to connect to the internet as roaming with a g1 is simply to expensive for a poor student like me.

what i did was writing a socket listener on the gpsd port 2947 and if some client connects i can emulate realtime gps data in the gpsd format. so this is beeing far from the real gpsd implementation. Maybe i will do a native port of gpsd some day.

What GPS Tether can do is to behave like gpsd. Therfore all programs compartible to gpsd can view gpsdata from your android handset now.

SOURCE Download BINARY Download

How do you get this up and running?

2 Possibilitys i guess ( i dont't know exactly because i use only one of them):

1.) port forwarding with adb: Get adb from the android developer page and install it. As you will find many tutorials on google on how to do this i will not explain any further!

the port forward with adb:

adb forward tcp:2947 tcp:2947

- You will have to turn on debugging on your phone to let adb connect.

- You will have to create some udev rules for your phone in linux to connect with user rights.

2.) use some tether tool available from market which lets you connet to your phone over wlan or bluetooth.

Now as we have gpstether up and running and we either do a tunnel over adb or we have tuned our android phone into some little router we can access the gpsd port out of various programms.

my favorite is viking.

You can test if gpstether is working correctly by telneting on that port and issue gpsd commands by hand.

If you use the adb method the command for telnet under ubuntu is:

telnet localhost 2947

thats it

I've seen many people asking for a way to add the HTC eReader tab to their existing Manila, and while this is possible I think my solution here is even better. The eReader Manila tab is a memory hog, and offers little real function anyway -- plus it is Manila version dependent. Attached is a standalone cab for the HTC eReader application, which doesn't require the eReader Manila tab -- or Manila at all for that matter. There may be some other HTC dependencies which may not exist on your specific ROM, but this has been cooked into and working on my Titanium ROM for a little while now and also tested and working on MightyMike's "Impact" ROM for TP2.

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

UPDATE [3-6-10]:

I've updated this cab with a newer version, which includes:

eReader_Reader 1_0_20113925_00

eReader_Library 1_0_20113827_00

eReader_Engine 1_0_20113825_00

This newer version is faster and includes additional books.

I've also uploaded to the FTP, instead of an attachment, so that you can DL without registering (although it would be nice if you registered).

You can DL the file here, or it is also attached here.

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

[3-5-10]:

Download and install the attached cab here, then soft reset. This will put a shortcut to the app in your start menu (you can move the link to another folder for a cleaner start menu).

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

To update your library with your own books (not natively supported), check out OABsoftware's Manila E-Book Library Manager here:

[Windows Mobile Software Development] indagroove:
It's native to WVGA, so some of the screen will be missing.

However, I did just throw together a VGA port, which hopefully should work.

Please test this VGA version and let me know if it works:

I have the HD2 and I installed the program. I am trying to see if it installed correctly. Did it come with a few books? I see them. But when I click on one I get nothing.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] indagroove:
Some people seem to have the same issue of not being able to open books. I'm guessing this is a dependancy issue, possible with shared modules, shared resources, or htc framework versions.

It would be good to know which rom you are running.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] gator70:
rom 2.5.19202525.0
[Windows Mobile Software Development] indagroove:
The eReader comes from the ROMs that include Manila 2.5.2012, so that is likely why it's not working.

I'm gonna guess that you need the newer shared modules, shared resources, or HTC framework packages.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] gator70:
Thanks,

What are my options?

Sorry my ROM is 1.43.479.0 (69828) WWE
[Windows Mobile Software Development] indagroove:
What device is that for? Either load a custom ROM, or updgrade to the latest ship ROM. It may be possible to cab up those packages, but there are modules which need to be converted to files, and I'm not sure if they will all behave as well being files and also if your rom will allow the files in the cab to overwrite the modules in your rom.

i am using UK device and ROM installed is 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE.

Q1 - it didn't work when i installed on SD Card, i reinstalled on device and it worked. isn't there a way to move it to SD Card? i am tight on memory on the device.

Q2 - I can see the list of books but cannot open anyone. Simply nothing happens when i select anyone. what is wrong?

Q3- in the Account Settings, what are these Borders which is asking for login and Adobe Id which requires activation. am i supposed to create an account before being able to read books and is it a MUST? i read the whole thread, did i miss anything?

Thanks again

trev666's version worked for me :) ... but ...

Dear "trev666"

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

,

It worked for me and i could open the books...

BUT

the Author name not appearing (after

indexing

) it shows "Unknown" while in "indagroove" version it was showing the Author name but the problem there was that it doesn't open the book.

i'm sure trev666 or indagroove can overcome this in a next version and maybe by combining efforts ;)

Can you please check out Q1 and Q3 in my previous post also?

Changing wikipedia link

Hi,

Today when I highlight a word (or words) on the ereader, a popup button appears with wikipedia label on it. If I click the button it takes me to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/THE_STRING_HIGHLIGHTED

Perhaps somebody here know how can I change it to google dictionary like google.com/dictionary?aq=f&langpair=en|iw&q=THE_STRING_HIGHLIGHTED&hl=en

That would make reading experience better for me :)

Any Ideas?

[Windows Mobile Software Development] boccon:
i installed this on my HTC Leo and it was the only release that worked with my stock rom..

BUT i noticed two issues:

1) The notification screen just disappeared (the one that comes up when you hit the upper taskbar)

AND

2) The calendar tab gets problems with adding or editing appointments. You just cant scroll the time wheels anymore or better you dont see the scrolling but if you apply the alarm time it is changed - but without seeing it in the process of editing it is pretty useless

Any solutions for these probs?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] xavierdemon:
No, as the FIXED cab was developed for the HTC Imagio or whatever the phones called :). Clearly it's using some older/different library files compared to the LEO.

If I ever get some time I will see if I can reconstruct the CAB using the DLL's on my LEO (providing I can find a ROM extractor) to see if that makes a difference but don't hold your breath as my CAB building skills are not as good as others around here :).

I'd probably suggest looking for an alternative eReader, as I think no one is really looking to get this corrected for Stock 1.66 ROM's, which is a shame.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] boccon:
:othe ddl does not work appointments is htcAfe.dll...help me!!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] xavierdemon:
I'm not going to be able to get this working, removing the HTCafe.dll from the CAB allows the Calendar to function but the bloody eReader doesn't lol. Notifications were still broken but this could be caused by the following files:

HTCdtp.dll

HTCimage.dll

Anyway as I said it's not going to happen, unless someone can supply me with the files from a newer Leo (ROM 2 or above). I'd need the following:

HTCAFE.dll

HTCdtp.dll

HTCimage.dll

HTCxmlpaser.dll

I still doubt it would work but it's worth ago :)
