[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kwanbis:
I'm looking for a myTouch phone.

The Magic is the better of the 3, because of the more memory, and because it uses the same 3G that is used on my country. But there are not that many of them.

Second best are the myTouch 3G v1.2, because of the more memory, and there are a lot of NEW myTouch 3G v1.2s.

So basically, this is the information I have:

HTC Magic Rogers ---- PVT 32A - 288MB RAM - SW Root - Many ROMs --- USB Jack --- 3G AT&T, Bell, & Telus ---- Other Models???

myTouch 3G ORIGINAL - PVT 32B - 192MB RAM - SW Root - Many ROMs --- USB Jack --- 3G T-Mobile/WIND Canada --- Google ION and Vodafone Magic

myTouch 3G v1.2 NEW - PVT 32A - 288MB RAM - SW Root - FEW ROMs ---- 3.5mm Jack - 3G T-Mobile/WIND Canada --- FENDER and LE

Assuming my table is correct, my questions are:

1) are ALL myTouch/Magics somehow "soft" rootable, meaning NO jtag, at least with a Gold Card?

2) are the MAIN/MAJOR ROMs ported/developed to the myTouch 3G v1.2? (I do not want to buy a myTouch 3G v1.2, and then all the main ROMs not be available, cause devs are not interested)

3) are the MAIN/MAJOR ROMs on the myTouch 3G v1.2 as stable as they are on the others?

4) I do not have a data plan, so, starting from a NEW, unrooted, virging myTouch 3G v1.2, can i go root with any software method?

The last question is related to my experience with the G1, where when I got it, it asked me to connect with my GMAIL account, but since i have no data plan, i couldn't connect. Luckily there is a way using ADB to bring up the wireless config screen, and then connect to gmail. But i understand that since there is NO keyboard on the myTouchs/Magics, there is no way to do that. So, unless the stock ROM has a "skip registration" button, like most of the new/hacked ROMs, i do not see if that is possible.

Anyway, thanks for your help.

Has anyone tried any of the wired tethering apps like easytether or pdanet?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mikewanda1971:
Pdanet free works great on my DI

I have tried Easytether on Windows 7. It connects but cant get to the internet. I checked the developers web site and their solution was to disconnect all other network connections to get it to work. Since I have a need to keep my network connection as well as a tethered internet connection, I went with PDANET.

So far PDANET has been stable and it works well. I did have to manually adjust my routing table and add a few persistent routes because local traffic that should go to my network card was being routed to PDANET instead (file servers, intranet addresses, etc.).
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] 1wingangel:
When I finally get mi D.I. I was going to root it (when root is available) for wifi tether, thats pretty much all I wanted root for, but if i can use an app to do that (only wired) then there's really no need for ME to root.

So would you recommend pdanet?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tonybee720:
i have used pdanet for blackberry and android. Works great, free, after trial is over, secured connections are not allowed I believe.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nicaragüense:
This Post is being done over a pdanet tethered connection!!! straightforward no BS.. and free..!!

I have used easy tether and works perfect, pdanet did not work for me.

If you are on Ubuntu, proxoid works well. I googled my rear off to figure it out.

First dl proxoid from market. Then You need to enable usb debugging on the phone. Then download and untar adb. Next go to system>preferences>network proxy, and set the manual field to localhost:8080. You need to tell firefox to use system proxy settings edit>preferences(advanced tab)(network tab) settings button> radiobutton use system settings.

The rest I wrote scripts for:

tether.sh

#!/bin/bash
echo "is proxoid running?"
cd /home/$USER/Downloads/android-sdk-linux_86/tools
./adb kill-server
./adb start-server
./adb devices
./adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080
cd /home/$USER
sh /home/$USER/proxyup.sh

proxyup.sh

#!/bin/bash
gconftool-2 --set /system/proxy/mode --type string manual
gconftool-2 --set /system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy --type bool true

untether.sh

#!/bin/bash
echo "Turn off proxoid if you like"
cd /home/$USER/Downloads/android-sdk-linux_86/tools
./adb kill-server
sh /home/$USER/proxydown.sh

proxydown.sh

#!/bin/bash
gconftool-2 --set /system/proxy/mode --type string none
gconftool-2 --set /system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy --type bool false

for the life of me I can't get the tether/untether scripts to do their related proxy switch, I tried adding the commands, and also running the script within a script with

sh /home/$USER/proxyup.sh

Does anyone have an idea how they could be merged?

Edit Never mind, if figured it out.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] larsdennert:
You can tether over dun too without those apps.

You can also WiFi tether in a way too if you have a laptop to act as the WiFi access point. Tether the phone with usb to the laptop. Use ics to share that connection with your firewall off. Setup an adhoc connection on the laptop to allow ipods and such to get on the net.

Many things are possible if you are creative enough.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Yodes:
Forgive me if this is a completely noob question but I figured a thread on tethering would be an appropriate place for this. Whenever I connect to my PC I see an option for "Mobile Broadband Connect." I never bothered to click on that and see what it does. I imagine its some form of tethering. Is it the Verizon paid type of tethering? Anyone care to shed some light?
[HD2 General] keepzero:
Has anyone messed around with this app and figured out how to properly adjust the NAT settings for xbox live? I know the ports that need to be opened are

TCP 80

UDP88

UDP/TCP3074

UDP/TCP 53

I dont know if those numbers need to be under local or destination port or what to put for ip destination. Any help would be appreciated.

Xbox Live will connect under the strict NAT settings if left unmodified but I was hoping to make a "OPEN" with some NAT settings and tweaking.

Also this is not the HTC WIFI APP I am using it is the WMWifi app.

Thanks again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
I have been using Android on my TP2 quite well. I would like to get into customization or it though and would like to figure out how to install CyanogenMOD or some other form that allows me to direct edit the android system from within the system.

This would also help the Devs I think.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demandarin:
Now thats what im talkn about, pushing the limits of Android. lol im wondering the same myself. For the meanwhile u can try out either Home ++, PandaHome, Helix Launcher, or Zeam. ive tried all of those out with this AOSP build. I would recommend Zeam first then Home++ second. The Zeam UI is very customizable and i havent had a force close yet. so when i boot up android, i have the option of what UI i want to use The Standard AOSP Home, Home ++, or Zeam. also theres no slowdown when running these UI. try it out, u might like it. I got the Metamorph program but when i try to run it , it says im missing busybox. i dunno, i looked at processes and busybox is in here but not active or not being recognized. who knows..lol

im on the same note as u though, customization.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cashless:
I've been trying this, unsuccessfully so far, since I got my TP2 about a month ago. It's not really documented anywhere so it's all trial and error and I haven't really found the time to work on it as much as I would like to. I was having some success mounting the data.img, pulling and pushing parts via ADB and editing the squash file. But now adb won't recognize my phone and I'm too lazy to fish out why. meh.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
I noticed that Busybox was also in the file structure, just not activated. Which also means that the Android builds we have all been playing with are rooted.

I do agree with you though, Home++ or Zeam are the home screens of choice, At least until SPB MS 5 comes out. Did I see somewhere that one of the devs here on XDA made an android apk store for only XDA releases?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demandarin:
wow..i hope someone chimes in with that link..thatll be crazy ..thats cool as hell...only surf for xda apps for android wit ease. :D ive been using Zeam..it loads up fast and hardly any hiccups or FC's. Plus u can load any widget wit no problem. For some reason on Home ++ , certain large widgets will freeze up and wont let u put them in the trash bin at the bottom..lol and now i came across the same clock widget used in the sense that shows time and weather. so with zeam and that, ud think i had the sense version although im repping AOSP at the moment. :cool: I really wanna learn or find out how to either activate the busybox in this build or find a new, simple download. i researched some, but way too many steps and risky since this not an official rom. I b worried sometimes that messing around with the UI or hidden settings in android might mess up things on the next boot up..lmao but i already got MetaMorph, its juss waiting to be used once it recognizes busybox. ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eghoti1:
seems like a new sqsh file would have to be made by a developer mimicking cyanogen in order to "install" it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] demandarin:
it would be like a custom sqsh file, kinda like a custom rom in a sense..lol that would be cool...there would have to be enuff interest in it plus be stable enuff to merge with this build. i know there has to be some kind of work around for the moment. there usually always is. ;-) i dont like the plain look of the Aosp build but its fast. so i try to find new ui or mods. which ive found out there is a ton of stuff u can do to this build thru apps juss like windows...my setup on this Aosp looks nuthn like it does when u first install it. it looks more like the Sense version. now i have it in fullscreen and that taskbar up top no longer there for that much more screen real estate..lol Zeam(ui app at the marketplace) has been wrkin pretty well for me.

Neopeek Cyanogen

Neopeek got Cyanogen working with ext2 partition
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] perern:
alternative

or you can use staysafe app in android to transform sqsh to ext2. it's like root, but without the ability to reboot.

So no customisations yet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cashless:
this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] electrikjesus:
Well, I have the SuperE CyanogenMod from Neopeek installed. It runs a little choppy, But FAST!! I was never able to get DATA working though. So I had to put her down until they figure out why.

I even tried a couple different zimage/modules packages for the rhodium. All but one resulted in the boot animation endlessly restarting.

I guess I still have to wait a bit.

Hi

Hope you can help, installed Hard SPL ok, when testing bootloader get the following as confimration:

KOVS110

SPL-0.78.000

MicroP1-787

MicroP2-707

Copy and rename rom file Kovsimg to SD card

Then when booting phone in bootmanager made it says loading as i would expect but then stay on white screen with words loading. does this for ages and nothing happens....also same when trying using USB

Any ideas?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Draken Korin:
your h-spl didn't flash correctly, you must have SPL-0.72.OliNex in the boot loader, reflash h-spl, confirm it worked this time and you should be good

best :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] VisualOddity:
How can I take ScreenShots on my MT3G?

Now, before it's said: I have been unable to get the SDK to work, so that's out. Also, I am NOT rooted, as I have the Perfect SPL, and a Gold Card did not work.

I am running Home++, which gives the option to use the camera button to take one, but the MT3G doesn't have a camera button. Would the trackball work for this, as you use it to trigger the camera? Is there another way to do this? Is there maybe a widget or app that would allow screen shots?

Thanks for any help...

A thought for the Dev's; How about an app the when you hit either it, or an option with in it, it will give you 15-20 seconds to get to the screen you want to capture, then does so? Seems like it wouldn't be too hard, but I'm not a Dev, so what do I know... lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] VisualOddity:
Yay, I figured out a work around. The Home++ will let you override the camera button and use the back button. Awesome. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Vonrottes:
Sorry, but how could you not get the sdk to work?

I did it on two XP workstations, one a Lenovo laptop, and the other a Dell Desktop (both work PC's). I would not recognize the phone. I could use it as mass storage fine, as usual, but the drivers would not install (and yes, I DL'ed that driver app, still nogo). Also, I kept getting error that some file was missing and would need to be downloaded for the SDK, and excell file if I remember correctly. I DL'ed it, put it in multiple directories, still nogo.

:(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] GreatBigDog:
For future reference, you needed to turn on USB debugging to take screen shots with the SDK. It's under Settings-Applications-Development
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Vonrottes:
And have Java installed, and download the correct packages for your version:cool:

[P3400 General] moin_chishty:
@ameetbora Do you use a customized ROM for your GENE? If that is the case, you may need to use another stable ROM as some of the customized ROMs have bugs and the phone application may hang / crash while you receive a call.

Hi Guys,

I currently have a Touch HD with Energy's Sense 2.5 GTX ROM - currently looking at what I should be upgrading to next though. I am in Aus - so on the Telstra Next G Network.

Currently I have been looking at the HTC HD2 and the HTC Desire.

If people could post some thoughts or suggestions that would be awesome!

I am in a similar position here in the uk on the Vodafone network and have been closely looking at the HD2 but having had loads of problems with my old XDA2 windows software have been holding back........is 6.5 more stable???

The Desire also looks like a fantastic phone but of course has a lot smaller screen which I really want the larger HD2 for......have you considered the X10?

I will keep a close look on this thread good luck on your purchase

Been working on a phone with the build number

2.19.605.1

CL123435 test-keys

Cannot get this to take a custom recovery, It seems to have root in ADB but when I try to flash a recovery it fails.

Any advice?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t2noob:
which method are you using?

I would suggest the fastboot method its a lot easier to do.

Just make sure recovery.img is in the tools directory. Then just follow these directions if you don't have windows just look for fastboot.bin and compile it in linux and it should work.

WINDOWS USERS

From your tools directory in the sdk do the following command

adb reboot bootloader

You will have FASTBOOT highlighted in red like it is here

Now on your computer do the following

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
you should see "sending....ok" then "writing.....ok"
on your command prompt when its done just do
fastboot reboot
that will reboot your phone and then you can either turn it off and reboot
into recovery or run
adb reboot recovery
from the command prompt.

BTW: all commands are run from command prompt.

Hope this helps.

I did get a HD2 today while I've been using HTC Hero (android) for about 4 months.

Now CAN I get some sort of sms-popup or preview in the lockscreen when I get a sms? I hate the way to go to the sms now, I want to see it directly when I get it aswell as I want the screen to turn on!

If this can't be possible on this phone, then well will hand this biggy thing back to the store!
