Hi All,

Very new to this windows mobile development, have downloaded the device manager/emulator from microsoft. and now i want to be able to emulate my htc leo? what is the proper way to do this? thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] tayler900:
you can't emulate a device ,you can only emulate the os. If you want to develop for windows mobile then buy Visual Studio 2008 Pro or up. Hope this helps :)

My 2G only settings option disappeared after upgrading firmware to JG1. Any thoughts?... Any other method to change the setting?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
im running jg1 an still have it under setings/wirless an networks/mobile networks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oswade:
Yeah this is really weird :S...

I just have

"Data roaming"

"Access point names"

"Network operators"

In that order. 2G only option is gone...

Running G1, although my CSC is F9 (from the FF firmware package).

I wonder if it's my CSC setting, since I changed it to UK (H3G)... perhaps H3G is 3G only? I'll see what happens if I change it in the CSC menu.

EDIT: ****... it works, but I didn't realise changing CSC erased everything.... :( This is about the 5th time I've lost all settings and apps on my phone... man that was stupid...

I wish I had my original Australian (Optus) CSC. It doesn't seem to be available for download anywhere...
[Windows Mobile] g2tl:
This has been covered multiple times with no solution, so I decided to cook my own ROM using oskitchen.

I took tmous's stock ROM which supports zune pass through wmp, imported it, and recompiled right away without taking anything out. To my dismay, wmp was unable to sync my songs.

Could it be (has to be?) the building process that somehow messes up how drm works in wm 6.5? Any insights?

[HTC Aria General] xdafly:
have a bootcd for Kubuntu 9 Carmic Koala.

is there a how-to for rooting from the bootcd without installing anything?
[HTC Aria General] jasonyump:
check the how to root the htc aria topic. the same rules apply with a linux live cd and linux install.

heres a link.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=714250

Read the post because it states for the prerequisites: "If you're in Linux, you only need to do Step 4, Step 6, and Step 7." then follow the rest of the guide.

your going to need the android sdk for linux though so you can adb to the device.
[HTC Aria General] xdafly:
any directions on how it is applied in a BOOTCD only system where nothing is changed on system?

ie. where downloaded? how installed? where?

yes, I read the post previously but there is a dearth of information on how-to for linux, yet many posts recommend doing the rom flash/root in linux
[HTC Aria General] jznomoney:
You just download the sdk. There are no drivers for your phone for linux. I used an ubuntu x86 cd and when you run adb for the first time it installs the service and you just go from there.

If it has the updated firmware we won't have to worry about lag, it was the first version of the 2.1 firmware that was on the Galaxy S that had the lag
[Vibrant General] jrwingate6:
Samsung fixed the lag issues with a firmware update. The update is supposed to be available by the end of the month. There is actually a fix for it and I will add the link. It has something to do with the application data being saved to the SD.

[General Questions and Answers] rwlf:
Here's my issue:

I have been looking around and doesn't achieve to get root access (and do a nandroid restore) on my HTC Hero with 2.73.405.93 CL#154788 (European HTC Rom with OTA pre-update).

edit: Trying fastboot to restore nandroid got me:

sending 'system' (150795 KB)... FAILED (remote: not allow)

(cf. this post xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=529167 (can't link yet))

Details:

I rooted my Hero a long time ago, and it got me issues for the (european) OTA update. The first OTA ran fine, but the second update (to android 2.1), though it downloaded fine, couldn't achieve the process after reboot.

First thing I needed was to restore the original recovery image. The one I had, Cyanogen 1.4 recovery coming from using Flashrec, brought issues.

Still the updating got problem after the reboot. It exited with an (status 256) error in applypatch, concerning the file tiwlan.ini. That's a file I modified long time ago and reedited to its original state, except seemingly for a byte, maybe a space, when I compared to the original one from an official (2.73.405.5) ROM. I suspect that applypatch exited whle doing some signature checking.

Then I tried to restore the root access to repair the incriminated tiwlan.ini file. But using Flashrec (old or new), I couldn't get back to achieve a customized recovery boot (stuck on HTC screen). So I tried different methods to get root access, but no access so far.

Moreover I accidently full wiped :(, but fortunately have a few day back nandroid waiting for be restored.

?: I was wondering whether the first OTA update contained fix by HTC to prevent previous rooting methods. Is that true ?

In any case I looking a method to gain root access and dot a nandroid restore on my device. Any hints greatly appreciated.

Or any advice on the possibility to perform the second OTA from the wiped 2.73.405.93, root a 2.1 Hero, and then perform a nandroid restore.
[General Questions and Answers] rwlf:
Finally I made a goldcard, and downgraded to 2.73.405.5 with HTC RUU (had to get my hands on a windows).

But still have no luck with Flashrec :(
[General Questions and Answers] rwlf:
Finally got through it.

- After goldcard down to 2.73.405.5,

- I rooted via instantroot.apk,

- manually flashed from adb (device on normal mode) a Cyanogen 1.4 custom recovery,

- normal reboot and then reboot recovery,

- pushed bak back my nandroid saves on sdcard, while in normal mode

- nandroid restore from recovery menu.

l only lost a few SMS and a recent contact in the deal.

The Dangerous error 101 shooted....:eek::eek:

CHEERS friends i get the solution for do not disconnect..

most of us knows that Himalaya ends partnership with PC and the result will be sometime permanently damage to our lovely device.

so here i give you sure tips how to make connection with any windows OS XP , vista or windows 7

now you don't worry about the Error 101

So without any tension you can upgrade your lovely Hima.

the other interested thing is you don't 've to expense on anything.

So be ready the procedure starts now.

Before that i introduce ab't this thing that why it disconnect so many times.

K1 - The pins are located very nearer.

K2 - Most devices contain some dust particles on that.

K3 - Socket can't hold the cable properly.

K4 - No need to know much deep just enjoy ha ha ha.

here is the steps followed by you to do not disconnect service..

1 - Clean your device socket with clean paintbrush or toothbrush;)

remember do not force on it.gently clean the socket.

2 - Now start your PC and install active sync if you are running XP

for vista & windows7 users install mobile device center.

3 - Take your data cable out from your garbage collection:p:p don't worry if it's ok if mouses cutting it already then you 've to buy new one.

4 - Connect your data cable with Hima or other device.

5 - Just watch the actions on both screens PPC & PC

6 - It just sound a while and disconnects at anytime so you have to put some small thin box or book in between data cable & device. as shown in picture below.

See the picture 1

orange arrow sign shows where to put thin box or book. the white arrow shows the bootloader version and USB connected

( to enter in Bootloader mode press Power button + D pad + Reset )

7 - Just remember that your device is lifted little bit in air from back side which connects cable as shown in picture.

see the 2 nd picture. arrow shows device lifted up in the air.

Don't leave it fully in air :eek::eek::eek:.

8 - Now you see the miracle that it syncs with PC automatically & not disconnect from PC until you want.

9 - do as same before when you want to flash or upgrade your device.

Now no one brick their Himalaya by following this steps.

:eek::eek::eek::eek: yeah it's true..

!! JAI SHREE KRUSHNA !!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] poiulkjh1:
I currently am running one of the CM 6 nightly builds (Froyo) but on the Market I can't find Flash Player 10.1 (only shows up on Froyo devices). I don't care if the flash player won't work but I just want to know why it doesn't appear. The Google Earth app also doesn't appear, even though it is for 2.1. Even when I had Cyanogen Mod 5.0.8 (2.1) I couldn't find it on the Market. How can Google block certain phones meeting the requirements (Operating System-wise)? Is there anyway I can get these apps?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
I believe it has to do with the build.prop file.

The apps that you had spoke of (Google Earth and Flash Player) require a much higher hardware requirements than the MyTouch can even come close to. So even if you were able to install them, you couldn't do anything with them. I've attempted to install Google Earth just to see what would happen and it only gave me force close errors. And if you think about it, if you were a developer and released a rom onto the Market, would you want so many people posting negative remarks that it doesn't run and constantly crashes on their phones when the app wasn't designed for such devices? Then on top of that give a negative rating which causes the rating average to become so inaccurate that it may as well not have a rating at all. I go on the Market all the time and see people giving 1-star ratings for "root only" apps and yet those that post negative and rude comments didn't have a rooted device. So think of it as a way of filtering all of the incompatible devices... such as ours. :)

ERIS 2.1v3 LEAK ROOT ATTEMPT (07/11)

USE AND DEVELOP AT YOUR OWN RISK

WE TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING HAPPENING TO YOUR PHONE

This is the newly centralized thread for developing a set of scripts based off the scripts used to root the Evo at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=718889

The EVO script attempts to exploit a vulnerability found in its flashlite plugin

This post is based on what started out as http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=718933

I have attached the OLD EVO files along with links to the scripts for ongoing work to happen.

OLD EVO INSTRUCTIONS

Basically we're working with the part1 and part2 script, as those two things are the things we need to direct more towards an Eris environment. We'll also need some changing on the img files (could be wrong) so PLEASE be careful running part2 -- if you have root it might not be a good thing (??)

PART 1 & 2 (07/11): http://gist.github.com/468821

**Part 2 file was moved to the same page (the above link) **

Play with these files on your own and if you get any results try to post your change suggestions ON gist.github please. I'd like that to be the main spot to look for script changes, so we don't have to sift through the thread for that quite as much, but discussion may happen here.

Please lets keep this thread focused on working this script to fit the Eris and only on that.

I really don't know if this will work. I'll keep playing with this idea, but I'm no developer, so I could use some help/suggestions, but lets keep them CONSTRUCTIVE please. If you're just coming to say nay we don't need that, unless you have hard reasoning.

Thanks guys, hopefully we can get some good stuff out of this.

PM me if you compose or manipulate files that don't include part1 and 2 so I can try to keep things up to date here.
[Droid Eris Android Development] cvmagic:
I tried messing around with this myself, it looks like app_appcache is owned by the user app_18 and is part of group app_18. Writing out to this would be hard without the rights. I am playing around with what I can do in the /data/data/com.android.browser directory hopefully either remove rights or create directories with shell's rights.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Deleted member 2698279:
Well I was actually just talking to a guy who sent me a message from the github files, I wonder if we only have a lack of writes in the app_appcache folder and could possibly write changes to the "app_appcache/????????????????????????????????" (32) then we could just read the exit status of attempting to rm -r those 2 things... I'm not sure that would work I can't hook my phone up at the moment.
[Droid Eris Android Development] wag3slav3:
Root fs help please.

This root method relies on clearing out the cache folder, scanning it for a new entry, replacing that entry before the flashplayer runs the video file container as root.

On the 2.1 Eris the cache dir, /data/data/com.android.browser/app_appcache only has read/write permissions for the user app_53, which is the flashplugin user. Nothing else can pull a directory listing to find out the name of the file we need to hijack.

Test this theory out with this.

cd /

ls -d ???

dev

etc

sys

gives all 3 letter dirs

cd /data/

ls -d ????

????: No such file or directory

We know for a fact that /data/data/ exists, because we can cd through it.

My flash lite app is fubar (leak v3, need to RUU) so I can't get anything into the app_appcache dir. Has anyone gotten a return on this step?

ls -d /data/data/com.android.browser/app_appcache/????????????????????????????????

Can a rooted user do a ls -al on /data/data/com.android.browser/app_appcache after looking at some flash for us to see if the subdirs have an r-x or what the perms are on the created flash cache files?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Deleted member 2698279:
Someone sent me a message saying that 2 folders exist there, and I THINK we have access to those its just that we don't have read access to app_appcache which causing the error on line 8.

What I think we could do is attempt the rm commands below line 8 and just read the exit statuses. The number of "?"s is currently correct (32) and there should be two directories, but they change from user to user, hence the use of "?"

I won't be able to test much until Monday, going out of town. I'll get everything more up to date when I return, but I'll have an eye on the posts a bit
