I tried using the 2GB card that came with the Incredible and even the 4GB PNY Class4 card i bought for my TP2, does this require a class 2 card or something!?

I'll try your suggestion in the meantime
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rcicu:
no go! :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
No, there's been success with microSDs and sdhcs of all classes. Whatever sdcard adapter hardware/software the DI has seems to hiccup on certain cards and certain partitions, that's why I'm recommending a combination of linux partition/FAT32 or FAT32 with an unusual block size. We probably won't understand why this race condition exist or what in an sdcard makes this MORE possible (i.e., longer window to init 'adb shell') until someone gets their hands on the DI source code.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] immjg:
Maybe, but I have just as much trouble getting adb in recovery in Ubuntu as I do in Windows. It appears to be a timing issue with the sdcard.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Semi-Rooted?

Personally, I have been able to get to the - exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -message 5 or 6 times now without any problems, thought I would provide some info about my use-case in case it might help others.

First, I would like to note that I have not actually pushed the update.zip or any other files to the device, I simply have entered recovery, manually running adb shell, and got the magic message (just to see if I could...). Not sure if such a test would be considered valid.

The key item I wanted to note about my microSD card - I am using a card that I popped out of an Olympus Digital Camera, which the DI complained about the card being "Damaged SD card" when inserting into the slot, however it seems to work fine for file access and I anticipate would allow update.zip to finish rooting. This might support the 'use different formats or partitions' logic being mentioned in the thread.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] sdorn77:
I also got a message about having a "Damaged SD card", but only after I had successfully rooted my phone. The first time it booted up after rooting, I got the message and had to format the SD card. I had actually used a different card during the initial part of the root process when I gained access to the adb shell, so the damaged card didn't have anything to do with my getting root access (unless the other card is damaged, too, haven't checked that).

I did finally gain success by shutting down all the radios on the phone (not using airplane mode), and deleting the usbstore.sys file from the c:/windows/system32/drivers folder on my computer before booting into recovery.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] kntdookoo:
Tried on a co-workers DI...No go! Sorry not any PC, any SD.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
It's pretty clear by now that fretting about device manager and very specific drivers when a DI has an improperly (from recovery's POV) configured SDcard is changing the drapes on the Titanic. That's my limited conclusion based on my limited experience. I hope to come up with a method to make any sd/sdhc card trip up recovery.

It's my guess that this exploit was intentionally allowed by HTC software engineers to allow either a test bench way of accessing root or a provision for a field/user repair, with technical support's guidance, to reflash an update that would be recalled from HTC's or the Telco's server and applied from adb root shell.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NCX Designs:
I've tried every method on here and YouTube, with two different cards, different format sizes, and even downgraded to pre-OTA

my H-boot is 77

along with my sd card info:

4GB PNY Class 4 - Tried FAT32/1024/8192 sizes

2GB SanDisk Class ? (came with Incredible) tried FAT32 1024
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NCX Designs:
It must be my memory card then or i'm just missing a step.

Stupid question but, should i have anything on my memory card to transfer over? or a file i would need on it to get it to work?

i'm done for a day or so trying to get this to work . . . i'm not at all happy that i lost all my data / apps / user setup and it ended up not working . . .
[Droid Incredible Android Development] contagous:
When you manager to get into recovery you will send the files to the card. I still can't get into adb recovery, ive tried everything, im blaming vista

Hey guys im back, sorry I was not in the channel today

I was at driving school all day today, and will be same tomorrow for running a couple of red lights. Anyways I wanted to give you guys some insight on how to make your drivers look like mine did earlier. It turns out that I forgot that I downloaded Tether, as I used to be a blackberry storm user, and had bought tether, and then I signed up for the beta version of tether which came out yesterday for me. Here are the links for the drivers, I hopes this fixes all for everyone, I still can't believe I forgot about these drivers.

http://tether.com/a/setup.exe

http://tether.com/a/tether.apk

You only need the top one, this program is great alternative to PDA Network, but if your like me I've had it tethered natively with USB for a while now, and also I got wireless tether now which is even better when I downloaded root.

So hopefully those files fix everyones situation. Just load those files up from c:\programfiles\tether, the usb drivers are right there. I checked and those are the same ones I am using in my system.!!!!

Also again my channel is #rootmyincredible not ##rootmyincredible. Please I cant help you if you go to the wrong room lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rcicu:
Tried tether app's drivers with no success.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] aaronjb:
I can verify that this solution - formatting with a couple of partitions, the second (logical) being a FAT32 w/ 1024-byte sectors - worked for me. The first logical partition is ext4.

Actually, it works for me every time, provided that I don't actually engage the SD card at all (not even on the bootloader screen!) until *just* prior to the "triangle" screen. I'm not paying attention to any beeps and bops from Windows at all, just watching the timing on the phone itself. There's no need to loop, though this doesn't hurt.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NCX Designs:
I'm not even sure how to partition into the ext4 format, i did read that it causes allocation delay in readtime.

Can you give a little insight on how to format into the ext4 on the same card as a FAT32 format?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
Gparted in linux mint or ubuntu. Maybe Partition MAgic in Windows does ext4, I dunno.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WoZeR:
You are right by 100%. I will write up exactly how to do it but it took a couple of tries and round 6 seconds i pushed my SD card in and now im setting at a looping adb shell batch file saying /system/bin/sh failed error. yay!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] aaronjb:
Alternatively, one could grab the gParted live cd:

http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
N1, I have a Ultimate BootCD411 and never thought about Gparted having its own liveCD.

Stock SD using a USB I had laying around here. I wonder if tat may be part of the reason my little internet setup here gets to be a bit laggy on my ps3 sometimes.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Ok, I think we are talking about 2 different things.

In your code snipet above it shows Transfer of a File from your PC to the SD card.

The speed being measured there is the time it took to move the file.

Now the other couple of posts are talking about internet speed. These things have 0 to do with each other. :p
[Hero CDMA General] jerry43812:
Here, lemme tie things together for you. First question was about what I think is a ****ty USB tranfer rate. I tether my phone to my computer and use windows ICS to share my internet with my ethernet port, which is connected to my router and bam! I have internet on my ps3.

Thing is, if I have such a ****ty transfer rate, I wonder if I am hitting a threshold for how much data can be transferred in one second because fo this usb cable or something.

Transfer rate still remains the root question, whether it's bad or not, but I also raised the question that if my transfer rate is that bad is it hampering on the amount of internet data the phone can transfer to the computer?
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Much more better :D

USB 2.0 has a theoretical limit of 480Mbps (for the record thats around 60MB/s). Now, what the phones limit is ----- ehh who knows.

I doubt your PC is to blame unless you have a 10Mbps Ethernet card (entirely possible if its more than a few years old)

The cable it self may be kind of crumby, I have found the HTC ones that ship with the phone, well, blow...hard.
[Hero CDMA General] jerry43812:
Are there any USB transfer benchmarking apps/programs to test cables and transfers between the PC and device? I'd hate to make a 10MB file with nothing but periods in it jsut to do the testing through adb

But I am trying. And locking up a dual core computer with this project, too.

[XPERIA X10 General] nj777:
Hi,

I got 600$ to spend now for a phone, currently on T-mobile(USA) and my contract is ending this month(can get discounted phone for other 2 years of contract but all phone are ****xxx), and I want Android now as I am seek of WM.

So my question is to buy Xperia X10(considering cons of 1.6 android and no multitouch) or a different phone? Or wait fore some upcoming phones? Anyone got any ideas about this?

Thank you.
[XPERIA X10 General] Poohball:
I will say buy it.

I bought mine from Taiwan becasue Band 1/4/8 works flawlessly with t-mobile 3g (USA)

And for some reason, some apps like google map perform better than my Nexus one (what the hell?), not just the app response faster but the gps just perform better. It is fater than my N1 when powering up the sat for gps and it will pin point faster than the N1.

timescape and mediascape is cool but I am sure media player is a really personal preference thing.

Camera is awsome with led that will blind you and can manually stays on.

Graphic is good thanks to the Sony screen.

design is beautiful I will say is one of the best looking cel in the market.

Anyway, don't get cold feet becasue of 1.6. This phone is FAST on performance and NO LAG at all.

PS, Sony confirmed X10 will get 2.1 update Q4 as early as Sept.
[XPERIA X10 General] RellikZephyr:
Re: Buy this phone now?

The x10 is a very nice phone, so definitely look into it. But if you have 600 for an unsubsidized phone, you should definitely consider the nexus one, it gets updates sooner, already has 2.1, will get 2.2 very shortly and will have gingerbread (2.?) By the end of the year, also has the multi touch bonus. But they are both very solid phones, if your happy with standard the x10 is very nice, if you like to mod your phone nexus one is the go

[XPERIA X10 General] Fuzalert2k:
Go for the Xperia X10, trust me. The only thing it doesn't have is multi-touch, but you can easily live without it. Especially with Sony's one-touch zoom.

Now, since it's getting even closer to getting rooted, you'll be happy with a phone that has good hardware, software, and aesthetics---- and yes, people do judge a phone by it's cover. (a sad lesson I learned with my p990).
[XPERIA X10 General] needmoregigs:
Re: Buy this phone now?

Buy it. I sold mine and want to buy it again because I like it so much more than the nexus one. I can say that sony ericsson did a fantastic job customizing 1.6. They really covered up what google left out and later implemented in 2.1.

It's a solid phone. Just look at 2.2 and see if you need any of those changes. Then, browse the forum to read about other people's problems and complaints. Finally, try to go to a local retailer and try out the phones. Ebay has the X10i, which is what you should be looking at, for 525 from a new york seller. You should only buy the nexus from google, since it's the only way to get it for now; retailers have it but mark it up higher than the google price.

Good luck. I hope you find the phone that meets your needs.
[XPERIA X10 General] gr00vy0ne:
I'm also a fellow T-Mobile USA user who has the Xperia X10i who came from a Windows Mobile 6.x phone.

Your best options are likely the Xperia X10i or the Nexus One.

You'll really have to think about the feature set and about what you want in a phone. I'd say the Nexus One is probably a better "all-around" phone if you want to tinker with your phone and always have the latest updates.

If you're looking for a more multimedia focused phone then I think the Xperia X10 is a better bet. It has a larger screen, a superior camera for photos and video, and from what I can tell a better out of the box media experience. Anecdotally, video files that i've created (ripped DVDs and some 720p H.264 clips) work on my phone but don't work on my coworkers' Nexus One and EVO 4Gs. Go figure. We're still trying to figure out why. Just know that with Sony Ericsson, you're going to be a little behind on the updates since they have a custom interface. However, SE does a decent job of filling the gaps and providing a "better" than standard Android Donut (1.6) experience.

Both are solid phones that "just work" and you'll likely never have to "reboot" them as often as you would a WinMo phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] klarsen:
if you live in a hot country don't buy it. My X10 reboots when i'm outside and temperature is 35 deg. Celsius.

If i'm using navigation it reboots after a while on even lower temperatures. (screen turned on seems to add a lot of heat)
[XPERIA X10 General] nj777:
I live in US, San Diego, it gets hot here in summer but I don't think hot weather will be a problem. Check your battery maybe it needs to be replaced.

As about Nexus 1 ...well overall design is too ugly for me. I like good looking phones and specs xD.

I guess I will be heading to LA as soon as I have a day off and check it out, already called one store they say they have it with Tmobile 3g bands.

Could't find any sellers in San Diego.
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
My vote is firmly in the X10 camp. I've been an HTC fan since their first Winmobile devices were released in 2002-2003(?) but this turned me over. My latest Android phone was a HTC Dream and I was looking at getting the Desire until I had a chance to play around with an X10.

What set this device apart, besides the design and feel, was the screen. Even though the Desire has an OLED the SE screen looked way better. The 4" 16:9 display is great, perfect for watching TV-shows on the go.

The interface can be annoying but I installed the ADW launcher and love it.

If you want a speedy device with tons of "teh sexy" then look no further. :)

Have the phone, how about the update?

Done,

have it in my hands now.

It is a X10i (I am on Tmobile)with .14 firmware.

Quick question for updating with decrypted roms:

Mine says Country: Belgium, Customized. .14 firmware.

So i guess its factory unlocked?

Can I safely update with

X10i - Shipped

WWE_R1FB001---this one....?

Will it brand to the firmwares provider or how it works?

There is no guide and/or explanation about this firmwares and for what phones are they(branded or unbranded/unlocked!?)

Pls anyone would like to update immediately so I can some apps.

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
Easiest thing to do would be to install SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) and run it. It ought to give you the latest FW available for your phone. If you're still stuck on an old FW after that I'd look into the mods but there's a fair chance you don't have to.

And considering it's ease of use it's a simple thing to just give it a go before investigating further.

HIH
[XPERIA X10 General] nj777:
I updated the firmware to .16 with the guide from esato.com and after that i tried the local decrypted rom r1fb001 latest anyway and when tring to flash it would give me some java error like unknown command java - javaflash.jar.

I have java installed.

After all i used Omni tool with their firmware customized and succeded to latest r1fb001.

Thanks anyway.
