For Mac:

Download this,

Delete 'adb' & 'fastboot' from the folder you extracted the files too,

Rename 'fastboot-mac' to 'fastboot',

Copy it to the script folder,

Run the Script.

If you get errors then please put in a codebox the terminal output.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meinhimmel:
Hi, I've been searching for technical details of how root is actually obtained on the Android system. Specifically, I'm interesting in the Nexus One, but I'm curious about any methods that are available.

After reading the adb documentation among others, I've come to the belief that at least on the N1 it's as simple as remounting system as root and changing the permissions of su followed by installing busybox. After that the superuser application is installed, and it updates su with it's own version.

(This is only for updating the application on an already rooted system)

Superuser appears to grant root privileges to itself then overwrites su with it's own variation that uses its database for permissions, and calls the app with:

sprintf(sysCmd, "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.koushikdutta.superuser/com.koushikdutta.superuser.SuperuserRequestActivity --ei uid %d --ei pid %d > /dev/null", g_puid, ppid);

I'm curious how cyanogen handles it without having the user install busybox, etc. before flashing his mod. I would think the Android system would only allow signed updates, but I have a feeling that the custom recovery image bypasses that.

If someone could just link me to a forum link/blog/etc. (if they exist) or give me some advice on things to search for, that would be great.

I'm just now getting into Android kernel development, and would love to know everything I can about it. I've been way to busy with a research project at school, but it's pretty much over at this point. I plan on becoming much more involved here especially with some programming some ideas I have for improvements to both the kernel and Google's applications.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flybyme:
bingo. upon unlocking the bootloader, you are able to flash a custom recovery which does not require google keys and you are able to install custom roms. the roms usually have busybox and the other applications built in. custom recovery also has all the binaries require for flashing roms.

a good site would be platform.android.com (something like that) for developing roms/editing kernel. you can also check the "android development" on the xda main forum homepage, there are a couple of stickies there worth reading

but i dont now if i can flash this rom the same way like the cyanogen.
[G1 Android Development] dsky25:
well it's cyanogenmod based so yeah, it's the same way. I believe that DangerSPL is required for Cannon's so if you haven't, go ahead and flash that.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
its the same...you just wipe from rec then bam you flash this...

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windcape:
Hi

According to HTC there should be a OTA update for the European HTC Hero (not T-Mobile), but it requires a higher build number than my phone currently have.

My current build number is: 1.76.405.6

I've tried out the RUU from the HTC support site, but it refuses to find the phone by USB (even that HTC Sync works just fine). The Over-The-Air update haven't shown up, and setting forward the clock and restarting the phone don't work either.

So I'm hoping someone got an idea how to progress onwards from here?

Ideally I'm hoping to make it ready for the 2.1 update, if it ever comes out.

Hi!

My phone is Asus P320 and I have problem with Sprite Terminator. I installed and configured everything. When I send SMS to my phone, it wakes up and turns the GPS on. It takes time to catch signal, so the phone goes to suspend after 2 mins.

The problem is that my phone doesn't reply the SMS on suspend. I waited 10-15 mins and there was no answer. When I power it on, sender receives SMS immediately.

What should I do?

Sorry for my bad English :P

[Palm Treo 750] trellus:
I am sure this has been beaten to death, and yes I know that Palm no longer offers this -- for a reason I can't imagine! I have a Cingular-branded Treo 750 and I'm trying to scour the Internets to find an archived version of the Treo 750 Updater for Windows Mobile 6.0 -- the official one for AT&T, as my phone is not unlocked. Can anyone tell me HOW to search for it, even if they can't give me a link? I found a couple of DEAD links to a site that no longer is apparently even out there at mytreo.net... but nothing that actually works. I even used the Internet Wayback Machine and found the official Palm pages for the updater, which worked all the way until I got to the ACTUAL link for the ZIP file. :(
[Palm Treo 750] thesameguy:
EDIT - I'm not allowed to post links. Hopefully you can figure out how to use the link fragments below. :)

Haha! We must be the only people in the universe trying to do this right now on such an old phone!

I found a link to rapidshare in this thread that did work -

showthread.php?t=335402&page=14

Unfortunately, my whole mission is simunlocking an old Cingular 750 so I can send it with a friend to France and use it locally, so I've sim unlocked my 750 and the desktop updater won't work.

I just found a link to the 2.25 sd updater on this page, last post:

[Desire General] alangalaxy:
First off let me apologise if this has already been answered elsewhere.....I have had a search but short of trawing through hundreds of threads I thought this may be the best option.

My question is this: I am currently using one ringtone and one alert on my Desire, both of these are in mp3 format and both are on the sd card. After mounting the sd card, when I resume normal function of the phone the ringtone has reverted to its default setting (windchimer) but the alert tone stays as I set it, this also happens after powering the phone off and back on again. Does anybody have an answer as to why this happens, and more importantly can anybody tell me how to stop it happening? This is driving me round the bend.

:confused:
[Desire General] miguelguilherme:
while the sdcard is in use (connectd do laptop, for example), the android equipment cant access the card, so It will user the default ringtone
[Desire General] alangalaxy:
I realise that but I don't understand how the notification resumes as previously set but the ringtone just goes back to the default. Does this mean that every time I mount the SD card I have to reset my ringtone afterwards?
[Desire General] JohnSteveDoe:
No. It's likely a problem with either the ROM you're on, or an application that is installed. My suggestion is reset to factory, see if it's the ROM, then restore your apps from a backup one at a time to find the culprit.
[HD2 General] Dr Diq:
Hai, just a simple question but I need it so bad.

When my phone rings and I get it out of my pocket I almost always pick it up to early by pressing the left (Awnser) button or rejecting it by pressing the right (ignore/hangup) button.

Is there any way to disable these buttons?

I know, the right button is usefull for stndby but I can miss it. (Phone sleeps in a couple of sec when lock is on)

Is there any way to disable these buttons?

Thanks guys!

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] miked270:
I'm currently running Cyanogen 5.08 on my N1 and decided to try the Metamorph application. I was having trouble finding any themes that said they were 5.08 compatible so I decided to try one that was listed as 5.06 compatible but after rebooting I kept getting force close messages so obviously something went wrong.

I'm new to Metamorph and just followed the intructions of unziping and then installing the theme.

I'm really interested in the Kspec theme but interested in any that might work on 5.08. Do I need to install them a different way because I am using CM? Thanks for any help on this.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] natediddy1120:
For CM 5.0.8 or 5.0.7 just remove any xml's from the theme before you apply it. Since these 2 versions of CM have the abilities to change notification/status bar text colors you don't need those xml's. At least you could do this until the particular themer updates their theme.

Just remove all xml's and leave *only* the images.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] miked270:
If I delete all xml files how do I install the theme? Don't I need to select the main xml file to select within the Metamorph application when it asks me which theme to install?

Does this mean just delete the xml files embedded in the different folders?

Thanks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] FormelLMS:
No, deleting the xml is definetely false. :o

Delete the services folder in the theme and the folder /framework-res/res/layout folder.

In Cyanogen 5.0.8 you can change the text colour in spare parts.

Or you will have a look in my themes. They all work with this rom, too.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] miked270:
Ok I tried using glass bar but I'm still having problems. Its begins to install but when it gets to "Applying framework-res.apk theme 7 of 7" it just stays there indefinitely. My phone doesn't freeze or anything or ask me to force close the app so I'm confused.

Could it be that I'm running a custom kernal along with CM 5.08?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sultan-mrm:
just wait tel restart the UI and will apply , if you not got full glass just re-apply

only the last one "framework-res.apk"
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] FormelLMS:
Yes, right. It should work.

Play a bit with the applying speed in metamorphs settings.

Or look at the first post. I've added some helping manual with problems at metamorphing in my theme threads.

Not to get OT, but getting an EVO won't help in getting the source released by HTC. Not too much he could do until then.
[EVO 4G General] mrpuffin:
well considering avalaunch has made a 2.2 (froyo) aosp build for evo without the source (although camera still doesn't work) i think you could still make something

that works specially since it would still be 2.1 and the camera and libs all work on 2.1 already
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
I believe his is a port though, not a true AOSP as a base. I could be wrong, but you would need the source in order to do that.
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
Well maybe they will be a little closer to releasing the source by the time we get an evo in darch's hands.

Plus if we go ahead and hook him up he can start getting familiar with it.

I'll start by making a list of commitments to donate in the OP

I don't want to spoil your party. but even if Darch had an evo, he would still need the kernel source for the 2.6.32 kernel, along with the vendor files to compile an Stock aosp rom. last i checked the official source for the .29 kernel hasn't been released, and when you look at htc's history of releasing kernel's it will be getting close to this time next year when the .32 kernel is officially released. but hey i'm hoping for a leak ;)
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
You're not spoiling my party.

I know it couldn't be done over night, and getting an aosp build on the evo is only half the reason for the party.

The other half is how much work he put in for us hero guys without asking for donations, or even posting a link to a way to donate to him.

He's a cool dude, he's brilliant, he wants an evo and can't afford it out of pocket atm, and having him here would be very cool indeed.

On that note, if anyone has an extra upgrade they would be willing to part with that would SERIOUSLY bridge the gap. My Dad has several lines on his account for his business and typically has one or 2 upgrades available but he just used all of them last week :(
