[Nexus One General] flarbear:
I guess the offense is that I wrote a long message about the fact that stability is not listed as a Con and then you quoted the whole thing and summed up your response as a negative assessment of my knowledge of the subject (based on one word). That appears to say "your point is not valid because you have no idea what you are talking about", no?

Also, superuser access was my definition of "rooting" as a long-time Unix junkie until I came into contact with smart phones. I then saw a definition which was quite different and had to do with being able to load any software you wanted onto the device. I can't find the reference any more, but someone on one of these forums pointed to a web page that defined "rooting" as "[persistent] access to the root partition of a device". It is hinted at on this page, but the page I saw specifically defined "rooting" in terms of being able to modify the system, not just what user level permissions you were running with. Typically su permissions will give you that, but that is clouded with multiple boot stages as with Andrdoi, and in particular - the Behold II.

Note that you can have superuser access within the Android OS and still not be able to flash a new ROM. This was particularly important with the Behold II since they learned how to get su access, but on reboot it would heal itself and remove all their exploits. So, you had to re-su-root your phone on every boot. This was because they didn't have "root" access to the phone's boot software which would reinstall the OS on every boot if you changed anything. Without this "device root" access the phone wasn't really, technically, "rooted". And, no, su-root privileges didn't give them access to the boot partitions because by the time you booted the Android OS those partitions were securely hidden and could not be accessed again until the phone rebooted.

If you can rewrite the OS (as in unlocking the bootloader) then you can install an OS that has an open mechanism for getting super-user access and so technically "device rooting" trumps "user rooting".

Also, in the case of the Behold 2 you could get su-root access without getting device root access. Is that true on the Nexus One? I've only seen rooting in the case of unlocking the bootloader so custom ROMs could be installed, but I never tracked the discussions to know if you could get su access without unlocking the bootloader or if unlocking the bootloader would allow you to simply turn on the su-access in the stock ROM without having to muck with the OS itself.
[Nexus One General] flarbear:
That's good to hear. Is that "stability with respect to the previous CM ROM", or stability even compared to the stock ROM? My suspicion is that the N1 ROMs out there are much more stable than the G1 ROMs I played with in the past, but then again, the stock N1 is already a much nicer phone than an unrooted G1 so the pressure to root is correspondingly less...
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Both.

[Nexus One General] SM-J700T_Guy:
Rooting con

Here is something to add to your list:

After rooting my SM-J700T I was unable to connect to Wifi, not data. I also couldn't get on Youtube via the app. I would press on the wifi switch and it would sit there. Forever. And ever. And Youtube would just sit there loading. Im not sure whether there was an error in the process and I need to re-flash the firmware via Odin, or its just something that always happends. Any help with this would be nice.

Sincerely, SM-J700T_Guy
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
I would like to present my first rom here at xda. Based off the espresso dump come SPHAEROSPRESSO

Still in alpha so don't be surprised when things don't work

Bug reports would be helpful :)

Thanks to sanpei, ahmgsk, and cursor for all of their work on the new radio and bits of advice to me along the way.

Known issues

wifi - help would be nice
orientation
music app buttons all wonky

and yes bluetooth works :)

ok so i can't post links... lame...

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hubay520:
You can put some pictures? About your ROM's.

Your kernel is to use sanpei? Is there any savings in power?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
getting some pics now

yes i'm using sanpei's kernel as it's the only one that works properly with android 2.0+

and it's at alpha 1 so don't expect power saving :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hubay520:
Sorry, I do not see your picture.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hubay520:
yes very nice!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanpei:
wow, I like the bottom bar of this version.

I think you can try to mix files from my or ahmgsk's ROM into your ROM.

and, it's better if there is a bug list :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
So maybe U`ll guys work on this togehter :D I love espresso bottom bar A LOT ! but without WiFi this ROM is useless for me :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanpei:
wifi should work with my wlan.ko. this part is not very different in each version of ROMs.

I hope I can work together with every developers who has an open mind, but I can't spend all my time on ROM development.

maybe someone can make a wiki and leave the questions he doesn't know the answer open on it. then I and others who want to make some contribution can fill it with what we knows.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
The problem is its not a simple solution off swapping the WLAN.ko as usual because this rom originally had a tiwlan_drv.ko and another ko file that I can't recall right now... as well as a a tiwlan loader instead of WLAN loader in the bin section etc. So i have to figure put how to change the whole system to work with our devices. I know WiFi is a huge killer for most (it is for me). I was hoping that someone out there would have a solution to the wifi problem ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
I really like the way U think :) Unfortunately i`m "noob" in Android/Linux section ... Hope others can make contribution on those projects ;)

Thnks for everything.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahmgsk:
i will look into this rom will post it

gtalk me when u r free
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanpei:
if it is difficult to find out a way to make this one working, we can try to add goodies, replace things and make changes into a working ROM, as much as we can.

if we start at the old one, and finally making it works and looks like the new one, we will know how we can start at the new one also. so there is no real different between this 2 ways.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] malachaskos:
the ling is here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
Sorry what did you mean at the end about the old and new one? You kind of lost me :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanpei:
sorry for my poor english...

my ROM or ahmgsk's ROM --> old one --> A

the orginal Expresso ROM --> new one --> B

a ported Expresso ROM --> C

M: something you want to add.

N: something you want to replace.

operation X (M, N): add M into A from B, and replace N in A with things from B.

you want C, you can:

1. start at A (means base on A and start to modify),

a) determine what will be included in M and N

b) do X(M, N). if something doesn't work, goto step (c). else goto step (a).

c) undo X, goto (a)

2. start at B, replace things and test if it works, until all things work properly

both of these 2 ways could make us get a C.

btw, in 1, sometimes you need replace many files at same time as they are a group (must be replaced at same time or else it should not work).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
Ah yes ok i understand :) thanks! I was considering trying that but i figured that i've come so far on this one that it would be easier to keep on going. But if i can't make any progress on wifi within the next week or so i'll try something else.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] orochi9999:
I like it very much!HOPE U CAN UPDATE IT!GREAT WORK~~:):)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
I'm doing my best... STILL fighting with wifi... this weekend i'll sit down and hopefully make some real progress.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] orochi9999:
Thx 4 ur hark work！I think It will be my favorite 2.1 rom.:):)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
Thanks a lot man :) i'm having a good time working on it but it does get frustrating some times... just hold in there everyone waiting
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahmgsk:
bro i will take a look at this today night

be online :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sphaerophoria:
thanks man I appreciate the devs in this community really stepping up to help newer ones like me :)
[Touch HD General] Novice Gadget Boy:
Hi all,

Just wondering if anybody could shed light on the following scenario:

When I connect my HD to my PC using windows mobile device center and successfully sync, i then navigate to a windows explorer tab and open up my storage card. I can then browse files, copy and paste, rename etc, however, i can not edit word files. When i open up a word file on my device via my pc it is locked as read only. The only way to be able to edit such files is to disconnect, and then reconnect my device, but in disk drive mode.

Does anybody know if i can edit my files and use activesync at the same time?

Thank you very much for your time :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] reps:
How do you upgrade the radio (im using 1.10 right now) using USB?

Or is SD flashing the only way to upgrade the radio version?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Nokser:
Upgrade to USB......

just like ROM
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] reps:
Thanks, i wasn't sure if i could use the same tool to upgrade the radio as i used to upgrade to WM 6.1.

But it worked fine, thanks alot ;)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] xda2jojo:
Just put HimaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and radio_.nbf to one folder only(do not include the nk.nbf).

Same procedure upgrading(reflashing) the whole ROM,

Put your device to bootloader...etc...etc.

After flashing it, you have two option, hard reset or soft reset.

But still, hard reset is recommended(if you got some probs after soft reset)

HTH
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bartolo777:
hi guys...

just opening this thread to get some advice. i love my hero alot but other than flashing the phone for new roms i can find any thing to do with. well i was thinking going back to iphone because with it i can stream movies(via unlimvideos) and also games on iphone looks great. i really love my hero but i can't either stream music or play cool games. should i wait for upcoming games or should i change? you have to admit rockband,fifa,fast and furiost. is killing me not to do any thing with the phone games in android market are lame an worst 2d i have ever seen.

help me decide or show me the true power of my hero
[Hero, G2 Touch General] olafos:
I guess you'll have to go back to the iPhone then :(

There are many things I like about Android, but it doesn't have as many good games and high quality apps as there are for the iPhone. I use it "professionally" as a smart phone, so i don't really need games ... apart from a little bit of SNES emulation if I find the time ;) I use it to study vocabulary, to write emails, to remote control my music/video server, take notes, plan meetings and so on.

The iPhone is more of an entertainment system than a smartphone (although it can be both) and I avoid it not only for technical reasons (Hero is smaller, Android has multitasking which I find quite handy with the apps I use, I can develop own apps for it more easily, etc.) but also because I don't want to support Apple right now. They are behaving like rampant douchebags and though I admit that they have superior hardware to some extent, that fact doesn't outweigh their dickish behavior recently.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] p13:
Hello AGAIN Poorboy,

You must be a troll, i'd better stop handing out cookies.

Hey bartolo777,

Try flashing one of the new desire-dump based 2.1 roms on it (i run behero).

It'll give you google nav, the new market, google goggles, etc.

Hope this helps.

Kr,

-Kevin

Probably no 3D since it has the ram hack
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
I agree, its great to see more. I mean with other devices there was tons of DEVs and Chefs. I know it complete different process, but still its great to see more ROMs
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
what is ment by

Graphic changes! Nexus One + Espresso + Others!

can we have the bubble look of espresso with this?
[G1 Android Development] Auramaster:
I think it means the transitions/ animations for the windows and stuff...
[G1 Android Development] digitallysick:
What about camera/video/gps?
[G1 Android Development] Auramaster:
It should have working camera (updated), gps (google maps 4.0, so gps probably works) and video playback (since youtube hq is working)

Imma flash it tomorrow, so I can't confirm :(
[G1 Android Development] sianaka:
Won't boot....

I can't get it to load on my G1 without Danger SPL, get error

"E:Can't chown/mod /system/xbin/procmem (No such file or directory)

E:Failure at line 24: set_perm 0 0 06755 SYSTEM:xbin/p"

Not sure how to fix it or I'd give you all some answers.
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
dont all 2.1 roms require danger spl as they are too large in size for original spl
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Maybe he got the system partitin to be lower than 67 mb somehow
[G1 Android Development] sianaka:
hmmm...

I removed almost all of the apps he added as extras along with the media folder. System is well under 67mb. Not sure why the failure.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
What is the error message when you flash?
[G1 Android Development] sianaka:
See above post.

I typed the error in my above post.

E:Can't chown/mod /system/xbin/procmem

(No such file or directory)

E:Failure at line 24:

set_perm 0 0 06755 SYSTEM:xbin/p

Installation aborted.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Only time I flashed a rom without an spl and the rom was to big (a hero rom) my rom flashed fine but then it hung at the g1 screen. So I had to just boot into recovery and flash something else.
[G1 Android Development] oshizzle1991:
well...how is the rom doing? i flashed...3 roms to my phone today LOL so i am waiting a bit to flash a new one :p

anyways, hows the speed/stability etc
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Best dl link I have ever seen on XDA right here though. LOL just downloaded this rom in like 10 seconds.
[G1 Android Development] sianaka:
Apps from system to data....

Can anyone tell me which of the apps I can move from the syetem/app folder to the data/app folder? I guess the question is: does it matter which ones I move?
[G1 Android Development] adrone:
Awesome rom

after flashing..really dig the speed. and the rom is just cool looking. I did get a couple of force quits on camera..but its a keeper

Youtube and browser mp4s working as well :)
[G1 Android Development] masterdude656:
Awesome....

I am loving the speed behind this rom for sure. Only let down is the 3d part. Definitely not working like I was expecting. Other then that, I love this rom so far.
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
i just flashed this rom its on the bootscreen now

i must say i love the boost screen !

nice and snappy ! changed to english right away so i could see what i was doing *followed settings menu on my milestone :P

at the toolbar at the top of the page, click "User CP" then on the left, click "Edit Signature" BAM!
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
ugg the Notification Bar is still in Polish, everything else seem to go with the proper LOCALE (english) you think the No Ram Hack Kernel for 2.1 can be flashed on top of this
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
blarg i just noticed that i checked after i read that.

no way to change that?

wonder if anything else comes up like that..

i really wanna use this rom daily!
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
yeah I totally didnt think of it already I was just reading the thread of Lazio's Donut ROM, you just gotta change the LOCALE US English or whatever you want and REBOOT!!

We need a NO RAM Hack version, I m gonna flash Kings No Ram hacke Kernel see if that works its AOSP 2.1
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
I also like the fact that the regular Launcher is the Nexus One Theme Tab, the real Nexus One 3D Launcher is still just too grainy and slow, I use the regular advanced Launcher, I like the Nexus One themed launcher with these new 2.1 ROMs
[G1 Android Development] DrLfresh81:
KOOOOl thanx!!!!
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
reboot worked THANKS! now this rom is almost complete. noram hack would do wonders to see if the 3d somewhat works!!! please nowipe update to noramhack!
[G1 Android Development] DrLfresh81:
OMG MP4?

Is MP4/Youtube really working AT LAST? :D

[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
3g issues.

I am getting absolutely no 3g signal at all. There's nothing where the 3g icon usually is...and I can't sign into my google account either its saying I don't have a network...
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
ill throw my sim in my dream and test see if i get 3g or not, my dream is always wifi with no sim. ill edit with results
[G1 Android Development] peshal:
Just tried the ROM. Well, the camcorder is not working and the Youtube too. It doesn't seem any fast to me. Lots of unnecessary apps pre installed. So i dont see any difference in this build.

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
lack of 3g/hspa could be due to the APN. i went to see mine and there isnt even one listed. so try putting in your respective carriers apn and go from there.
[G1 Android Development] eklipz3:
i'm not sure but i think 3g works its just not showing because i changed my phone to 2g only and my signal bars went flat unless that's normal. bluetooth not working.
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
ok i got 3g symbol.

but for some reasn my htc dream thinks im roaming? its an unlocked rogers htc dream on telus sim. my milestone doesnt roam.

but if i enable Data Roaming in mobile network settings it gives me my 3g data.
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
Nope.

Internet and all is not workin for me on this one...:confused:
[G1 Android Development] e-fan:
Chinese user tested, no chinese language choose, but add morelocale.apk and flash a font.zip make it happen, testing, feedback later.
[G1 Android Development] G1-8701:
i can't sign in, even through market, it keeps saying no network connection, but i have 5 bars! i don't understand
[G1 Android Development] JamieD81:
my sign in worked fine, though 3g doenst work cause my phones roaming for some reason..

but i have this setup

4gb class6

96mb linux swap

512mb ext4

rest fat32

fully wipe before install. skip login *tricky but ive done it enough to know what buttons to push when haha as initial setup is in other language*

signed into my wifi, opened marketplace and signed in quicker then alot of times ive flashed roms. accepted, and everythings working. cept the camcorder.
[G1 Android Development] TheRealAru:
Flashed on my G1. Works very well except for the things stated. Started in polish, had to change the language in the locale and region. Had to also set the APN as explained below.

Flashed on my MT3G, went immediately to english, skipped initial setup as I usually do, did not have any APN's setup, set them up manually, saw that my bars were full, but no 3G symbol.

My MT3G is my primary so these were my steps.

1. Wipe.

2. Flash Rom.

3. Since it went immediately to english, skipped initial google setup.

4. Went to settings / wireless and networks / mobile networks and setup my APN, as I did not have one there from initial install.

5. Phone wanted to do everything via WiFi, so I turned that off for a second to test my network with a phone call / text / browser.

I will be using this one as my primary OS until the next one comes out. Very solid OS. Even the music / camera function pretty quickly.
[G1 Android Development] tiggerbcn:
Thanks for this ROM, it works very fluid and rapid, finally I could have seen with quality HQ videos in mp4, but what does not work is the bluetooth, it is not activated: Some solution?

3D not work

camcorder not work

Thank you

This rom has the same problem? Any fix?
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
for all u ppl talking about 3g not working go to ur APN settings and chang it to the carrier that u are using simple as that g's
