[Droid Incredible General] PDAnuby:
I had to down grade in order to root, got it rooted and installed the tethering software, all was working fine, got super user icon, had no problems.

Then phone wanted to do upgrade which i did, now the tethering will not launch and I cannot get SU in adb shell.

Did I lose root? or am I doing something wrong?
[Droid Incredible General] PDAnuby:
Ok never mind it broke root, go ahead and nuke this post.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amiPro:
I created a new thread to host sphone updates announcements and get the feedback.

sphone is a GTK+ based phone application for ubuntu based phones. It uses ofono for telephony backend.

Download:

http://github.com/amipro/sphone/downloads

Installation:

Dependencies:

Ofono: version 0.25 is needed. Can be downloaded from the above url.

sqlite3 and libunique: apt-get install sqlite3 libunique-1.0-0
​

Unpack the attached file and install: dpkg -i sphone-0.04_armel.deb

It can import the contacts exported using MS Outlook and MCoolSoft Contact2XML:

sphone -i contacts.xml

Please note that it is a work in progress, so use with care. I made my best but I don't provide any warranty.

I welcome any comments or suggestions.

Source code: http://wiki.github.com/amipro/sphone/

Version 0.04 changes:

New feature - Import CSV file for names and dials. Enables import of MS Outlook exported contacts.

New feature - missed call notification icon

New feature - configuration files support

New feature - vibration device interface is configurable, this should enable support for other devices

New feature - audio device interface is configurable, this should enable support for other devices

New feature - execute external applications for call and sms events

Bug fix - no signal indicator icon

Bug fix - load current active calls during startup

Bug fix - accept + for dialer

Version 0.03 changes:

Calls and SMS history

Auto-completion for the dialer

Auto-completion for SMS to field

Display caller name if imported

Supports opening the dialer and send sms windows using command line. This enables binding buttons or shortcuts these functions:

sphone -c dialer-open
sphone -c sms-new

]
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] walter79:
great news. i will update the rhobuntu build.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amiPro:
I suggest binding the answer button to open the dialer by adding the following mapping to /etc/rhod_key_driver.conf:

231:	#answer button
code 120

And add the map to .xbindkeysrc:

"sphone -c dialer-open"
c:128
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] walter79:
no problems. I will add this code.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Boushh:
Thank you very much amiPro. This is very helpful. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] walter79:
How can I delete contacts?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amiPro:
There is no interface to manage the contacts. One option is to delete the contacts/history database in the following path and re-import only the needed ones:

~/.config/sphone/store.sqlite
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amiPro:
I released version 0.04 of sphone. The following is a list of the changes:

* New feature - Import CSV file for names and dials. Enables import of MS Outlook exported contacts.

* New feature - missed call notification icon

* New feature - configuration files support

* New feature - vibration device interface is configurable, this should enable support for other devices

* New feature - audio device interface is configurable, this should enable support for other devices

Hello to everyone!:D

I have problem about my Tytn (Hermes 200) that a connector (for a screen flex cable) on my motherboard is damaged. Is it possible to fix it -for example to change that connector with a new one (because I have another Tytn with usb port broken but that connector is ok)? Does anyone know how to do so? I really need help...:confused:

thanks in advance ;)

or if someone know where I can find a new motherboard cheap? :p

I can't really help you with your problem but I wanted to notify you that you're posting this in the wrong section. The proper place to post such threads is the General section. You'll have better chances of finding someone who can help you there.

Plus, I've seen some pictures of the mobo there so it might be worth searching that section for something similar before posting.

Here is a guide to building froyo from source for the HTC Desire. I am using Ubuntu 10.4, any Linux distro will do.

Thanks & credits: Defer/deovferreira, AdamG, Kali-

If you are interested in this sort of thing I encourage you to join #teamdesire on irc.freenode.net

Get packages

sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev valgrind
cd ~
mkdir bin
curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo >~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

Install java (from java.com - not documented here in this post), set some variables and get the aosp source. Edit the path to your java installation if it's not the same as below.

cat >> ~/.bashrc <<EOF
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jdk1.6.0_18/
export ANDROID_JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME
export PATH=$PATH:~/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin
alias makedroid='make -j$(grep -c processor /proc/cpuinfo) TARGET_PRODUCT=full_bravo | tee build-$(date +%d%m%y%H%M).log'
EOF
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir mydroid
cd mydroid
repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b froyo
repo sync

Please note, if you are using java 1.6 you will need to edit ~/mydroid/build/core/main.mk and comment out the lines that abort the build if you are not using java 1.5 (comment out lines 104-134)

Set up a bravo "vendor". Download defer's vendor files and extract bravo and bravo-common into ~/mydroid/device/htc/

cd ~/mydroid/device/htc/bravo

Thanks to deovferreira and Kali- for this vendor config.

Now you need to connect your HTC desire and enable usb debugging. This script we are running will pull propriatary files from the device to go into the new system image. You need to pull the files from an Android 2.2 rom or this will fail! Try using OpenDesire from AdamG or DeFrost from RichardTrip

./extract_files.sh

Configure ulimits (default of 1024 causes 'too many open files' error in Ubuntu). Substitute 'myuser' with your username:

sudo cat >> /etc/security/limits.conf<<EOF
myuser soft nofile 8192
myuser hard nofile 8192
EOF

You need to exit from your shell and start a new one for this change to take effect.

Now you can start your build!

cd ~/mydroid
source build/envsetup.sh
makedroid

Check your build.log in ~/mydroid afterwards for errors.

It takes about an hour to build on my 2.3Ghz dual core laptop with 2Gb of ram. Afterwards in out/product/target/bravo you will find system.img and a system directory containing the files to flash to your device (minus symlinks, create those using your update-script -- open up someone elses rom to discover how these work).

[Desire Android Development] philicibine:
Good to see your attempting this mate. Keep us informed!

Just a thought, have u tried pulling the files from a froyo rom? Might fix your errors.

[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
If I let the build run it does finish, but I get a generic device, not a bravo specific one... i.e. my vendor is ignored. I don't know how to choose the 'lunch' option in Android 2.2. I'm sure its easy, probably one command, but I can't find the doc that explains how!

Edit, ok just found out how to do this on the android developer site, will give my build another go...

% cd $TOP

% . build/envsetup.sh

# pick a configuration using choosecombo
% choosecombo

% make -j4 PRODUCT-generic-user
[Desire Android Development] xchipx:
Just a thought. Too many open files may refer to the linux max open file descriptors.

Max is usually 1024 by default which can cause problems for huge builds.

Either do it as root after setting his ulimits with (probably a bad idea)

ulimit -Hn 8192
ulimit -Sn 8192

or change it for yourself in /etc/security/limits.conf

myuser soft nofile 8192
myuser hard nofile 8192
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Yeah I already ran ulimit (as me, not as root) and it said 'ulimit unlimited'!
[Desire Android Development] xchipx:
Yeah, but the important information is from ulimit -n

(-n is for nofile, you can see all limits with ulimit -a)
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Thanks mate you were on the money the with upping the limit in limits.conf. My previous limit was 1024, increasing it to 8192 has overcome that error message!

To build using the custom vendor rather than the generic product:

make -j2 TARGET_PRODUCT=htc_bravo
[Desire Android Development] xchipx:
I'm happy to see that my first ever post on this forum turned out to be useful for someone, cheers! :)
[Desire Android Development] dnlgee:
After building were you able to successfully flash this to your Desire? Or does it take alot more effort..
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
There are a few more steps - compiling a kernel (if you don't want to use someone elses) and packing it into a boot.img, and packing the files into an update.zip. I've just had a successful froyo build after making a few more small tweaks. Now just to pack it into an update.zip and flash it ... will let you know if it works!

If it's working I'll go back and update the original post with full instructions.
[Desire Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:

My build is going all the way to the end, but the output does not boot...logcat shows a bootloop and crashdump from the Android framework. Will update with fully working instructions hopefully within a few days!

Hi,

i got the following errors:

h**p://nopaste.info/374d05fc39.html

Don't know why. Suggestions?

greetz
[Desire Android Development] st0kes:
Hmm .. You will need to make some small edits in the vendor files ... change all instances of vendor/htc to devices/htc.

For example in BoardConfig.mk

BOARD_EGL_CFG := vendor/htc/bravo/egl.cfg

In device.mk

include vendor/htc/bravo/device_bravo.mk

In device_bravo.mk

DEVICE_PACKAGE_OVERLAYS := vendor/htc/bravo/overlay

There may be some others ...

find ~/mydroid/devices/htc/bravo -type f -exec grep -l vendor "{}" ";"

My Linux laptop is at home so can't be of much more help ... I'll update the OP with these details though.
[XPERIA X10 General] Octanum:
I don't really know too much about root, but I'm wondering how things will work when root is widespread. Will we always have to rely on devs for every future android upgrade or something?
[XPERIA X10 General] rocketpaul:
do some research!
[XPERIA X10 General] Octanum:
I'd assume no, except for perhaps the first one, but I haven't seen it explicitly stated anywhere.
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
The short version is that there's userland root access. That pretty much means that the what's on the device can be modified, like apps removed etc but afaik there's no bootloader access yet which would be necessary for flashing custom images.

Root will make cracking the bootloader easier though so it's a major step on the way.
[XPERIA X10 General] Talonnb:
If its anything like the HTC Dream I had before my Sony X10, the root is a process that keeps your phone rooted. Unless you revert back to the original software, you should never lose it. As for the OS, there usually will be people developing custom ROM's for quite a while on this phone but essentially on that part, yes it does depend on the devs.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
But the hardware is there?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] twiztid907:
yeah its flashes white, which is a mixture of every color
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
I think that technically white is the absence of any color.

Black would be a mixture of all colors.

Kinda hard to add any other color with black to get white.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Is_white_the_absence_of_all_color_or_the_presence_of_all_color

But that's if you are talking about physical paint.

However if you are talking about light it's the opposite.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Is_white_a_color_or_an_absence_of_color
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] twiztid907:
I know that I read somewhere that the nexus could do this bc it had white which they said was every color. Oh well
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Vonrottes:
Actually White is pure(light) or Absent(color)

Black is the absent of color(light) and i think its just mash when it comes to color...

So I would only guess that since the led for the track ball is white it could possibly have Base colors ???
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
I really doubt that it has the ability to operate with different colors. I hope that someone proves me wrong though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheForgotten:
I used to have a blackberry 8100, and it was white but underneath there were multi-color LED's and you could change the color but this was removed in later BB pearls, best bet to figure this out would be to pop the trackball out (dibbs out) and do some physical inspection to see whats all behind there.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
One, two, three not it!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheForgotten:
Not It :P NOSEEE GAME!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chrisgto4:

Ok I had a spare mytouch so I took er apart.

6 screws in casing

2 screws holding frame/boards to screen

gently pry the screen connection away with a small flathead (no clips or anything holding it in place) just a really sticky piece of foam adhesive.

trackball is held on by 2 small "arms"

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
You made that look easy. And I must say, you have some guts ripping your MyTouch apart. I wasn't able to hear anything in your video though. Perhaps something's up with my laptop. Anyway... any sign of other trackball colors?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chrisgto4:
unless u cant get the led's that are already there to produce a diff. color then your stuck with white, because they are all the same under the trackball.

P.s. that probably the 10th time I have had that thing apart. Its my old one that has a crack in the lower board somewhere and it messes with e the sensors

you can flash a locked phone without any problem. it will stay locked though after reflashing. if you flash a generic firmware you will get rid of the carrier personalisation.

[EVO 4G General] psycho9x:
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone else had this issue. When I'm in a dark room or outside late at night and my Evo is turned off the capacitive buttons at the bottom of the screen still glow, its very dim but still noticeable. They even glow when the phone is completely powered down and when charging. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] Vandam500:
That's odd. They should only turn on when the screen is on and when the light sensor detects little light. I am thinking that something is preventing your Evo from fully sleeping when the screen is off.

Try using a task manager and killing all the apps running, then try and see if the problem still occurs.
[EVO 4G General] psycho9x:
Ive done the task manager thing and even tried a master reset. seems like something may be shorted out inside the phone. it has NEVER been dropped.
[EVO 4G General] Bielinsk:
This is normal. Its so you can see the buttons.
[EVO 4G General] AssassinsLament:
I have this issue also, it's not much of a problem other than maybe draining the battery a small bit more. I'm sure it's not so you can see the buttons as when the screen is off, the buttons don't function any ways. But as I said, it's not a big issue to me.
[EVO 4G General] admorris:
That's funny, I just noticed this for the first time yesterday as well. I really don't see a battery drain from it, but I don't like that something may be broken for this to happen. Any more thoughts on this?? Phone is otherwise perfect as far as I'm concerned.
