You will notice a small difference in speed if using 128 bit wep. Because of the higher encryption it is more data to send and receive, therefor lower speed in browsing, downloading, etc., etc. Not enough to cause a ruccus over though.
[EVO 4G General] Casshern:
I do this occasionally.

The Supersonic increases the fun factor significantly. :)
[EVO 4G General] AcIdC0R3:
Has anybody determined the range of the wifi yet. I know it doesn't do so good through two or three rooms away from the AP. What about open airway? Anybody know?
[EVO 4G General] Renegadez:
WarDriving can be dangerous to a device tho I had a friend who tried to connect to a bank once and it did something that killed his laptop running windows instantly it made it reboot and he actually had to reload windows to this day I dont know wtf it was and I have been in IT for 15 yrs still his fault for doing it but never thought that possible!
[EVO 4G General] kthejoker20:
i love wardrivers.

So does my honeypot!
[EVO 4G General] AcIdC0R3:
Banks use custom hardware and software based firewalls. They are developed by companies that design firewalls. We're talking 1,024 bit encryption. I'm a network analyst and can almost guess that they had a honeypot set up on there trunk. Designed to invite the casual hacker to snoop and at the same time gather all his information, then report him to the proper authorities. Even throw a DDOS attack back at him. As far as killing his OS. They probably had a virus set to exploit any hacker that tried to breach there network.
[EVO 4G General] Casshern:
It's a PITA sometimes. I don't have any actual figures personally. I just know that it can get headache-y. It may be possible to add an external antenna for giggles...
[EVO 4G General] AcIdC0R3:
My friend came over with his new iPod Touch a few minutes ago and it can access my AP from three room away with no problem and my EVO has trouble at that distance. Apple sure does make some solid equipment. I'm a little disappointed.
[EVO 4G General] EliWay:
Google must be really screwed , then.
[EVO 4G General] AcIdC0R3:
LOL, Google seems to have their hands in everybody's pockets nowadays.
[EVO 4G General] Renegadez:
DDOS with a Virus sounds about rite but it was split second fast and this was even a few yrs back
[EVO 4G General] go4the1:
The app "Wigle" is far superior to Wardrive in my opinion. Wardrive has like 300,000 total networks in their databse, WiGLE has over 22 million.
[EVO 4G General] AcIdC0R3:
That's probably because he stumbled into a honeypot and therefore left himself vulnerable to the attack. I had a friend do the exact same thing. He cracked WEP, infiltrated a secure network, stumbled into a honeypot and started snooping around all the while the honeypot was crippling his system undetected and laid a very nasty virus that changed all his EXE files on his entire system to BAT files that triggered a nasty popup with a laughing skull and saying he had been violated. It also laid a virus in the boot sector of the drive making not only his OS inoperable but the HDD itself. He had to go buy a new HDD after that and then reinstall his OS from scratch. He lost all his data in the process. Banks and corporate infrastructures are best left for the more experienced hacker. Back in the 80's when Kevin Mitnick was arrested for cyber crimes all over the US is what inspired me and a bunch of friends to take up hacking and eventually led me into the field of Networking and that's where I am today. Hacking is a fad. It's fun while it last but dies hard real quick. I use to wardrive to the extreme until I kept coming across peoples networks that had too much kiddy porn to ward me off and be disgusted for a lifetime. The really bad thing about it is I couldn't turn the SOB's in because I was committing a crime myself by gaining illegal access into private AP.

On a side not: I use FakeAP that broadcasts about 50 ghost AP that are fake and the wardrivers don't have a clue where to begin. My AP sits in among all those ghost AP but the chances of them stumbling across it is very slim. Just search for FakeAP via Google. With that many to choose from after about 5 or 6 failed attempts they'll move on to some other neighborhood that is easier.
[HD2 General] Rodders_28:
hi all,

for no reason i know opera has stopped working, it comes up 'invalid signature'

how can i fixed this other than a factory reset?
[HD2 General] Rodders_28:
no one had this problem?
[HD2 General] M_T_M:
I read your post yesterday...but there's something that's missing....does this happened abruptly? Did you just flashed a new ROM? What version of Opera do you have? have you tried another version to see of ot works? What kind of connection are you using? 3G, Edge, WiFi etc...
[HD2 General] Rodders_28:
its the pre installed opera on the bottom slide bar.

it just happened, used to work, now it doesnt. no rom changes, dunno how, lol. nothing changed.

cant use it on wifi or 3g etc...
[HD2 General] M_T_M:
Is this a stock ROM? Have you tried installing another version to see if it works? Have you hard re-seted your phone? That may help :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] Yorkshire Yellow:
I had a similar to this.

I installed a version of Opera 9.7 to try and get the 'FixOperaFlash' thing working, and it seemingly kept uninstalling itself, plus I couldn't then open the stock Opera 9.? on my Vodafone UK 1.72 ROM.

I'm now using Opera 10 and getting on just fine with it.
[XPERIA X10 General] adeel.:
Android 2.1 vs. Sony Ericsson Android 1.6

When the X10 is released, it will be released with Android 1.6. We will take advantage of the additional

possibilities of Android 2.1 during the life of X10 via upgrades.

One objection you are going to encounter when presenting the X10 is: „Why does your X10 only have

Android 1.6 installed on it? The latest version is 2.1! It looks outdated!”

We all need to be prepared and knowledgeable about the differences in order to deal with the dealer's

concerns and provide them with understandable answers for their customers.

In order to do this, we first need to understand the differences between standard Android 1.6 and Android

2.1. They are:

• Integration of digital Zoom and support for LED Flash

• Support for Microsoft Exchange Active Sync (Contacts and e-mail)

• Bluetooth 2.1 support for OPP (Object Push) and PBAP (Used to transfer contact

information to a hands free)

• Live Wallpapers (Animated HTML based wallpapers)

• Multi touch support

• HTML 5 support

• Richer contact information and possibilities to integrate social network data.

However, the version of Android 1.6 installed on the Sony Ericsson X10 is not a standard. Sony Ericsson

has developed and enhanced it in many areas. So let’s have a look at the real difference

X10 1.6 Specs:

1.Cyber Shot camera with digital zoom and flash, face and smile detection easy to use cyber shot interface

2.Moxier client pre-installed

3.OPP is integrated into x10 out of the box and PBAP will be part of update

4.Live wallpapers will be part of an update

5.HTML 5 will be part of update, currently no consumer relevant website is using HTML 5

6.Sony Ericsson TIMESCAPE

I got this data I liked to share with all of u we X10 users are some how equal to Android 2.1 we should demand for 2.2 Update not for 2.1....
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Now you're talking. I have been campaigning from the beginning to get people to ask for the 2.2 and not the 2.1. Ever since that petition was being passed about. Everyone thought I was crazy to push for it. I gave up trying.

However, I would say that the 1.6 will look outdated because the 2.2 is out and not the 2.1!

Also, the Timescape has it's issues. To the point that I have it removed from home screen and do not use it. And, there has been plenty of mention in regards to Timescape being related to the battery issue.

And, where is the flash for the camera? I have a light that I can manually turn on and off, but no flash. I am pretty sure this is coming with the 2.1

And, where did you hear there are no consumer relevant websites run HTML5?

I also thought there was a WIFI enhancement on the 2.1

The only problem now is that we have beat SE over the head for the 2.1. So I don't know what are chances of getting the 2.2 on this device, but I do not think they are good.
[XPERIA X10 General] cvchetan:
well like se added 2.1 features to 1.6,

lets expect that they add 2.2 features like flash into android 2.1....

will be a better option..
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
Here is a quote about the first web site I checked, Daily Motion.

"Another video titan that is fighting back against plugin prisons is DailyMotion. The popular streaming video website has launched an open video pilot program, providing a new beta version of its site that uses the HTML 5 video element to play content. As part of the pilot program, DailyMotion reencoded 300,000 videos with the open source Ogg Theora codec. Unlike many common video formats, Ogg Theora is not encumbered by known patents. It can be used and reimplemented freely without having to pay licensing costs."

The full artical can be found here. http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2009/05/google-dailymotion-endorse-html-5-and-standards-based-video.ars
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
I'm all for open source, and would love if every site with flash content changed it to HTML5, but Ogg Theora is no better than Flash...It's unreliable and uses a significant amount of resources.
[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
There are few things worth remembering:

1. No consumer has launched any HTML5 versions as anything other than betas or previews.

2. HTML5 is not a ratified standard, it's a draft. Which leads me on to the next point.

3. The video tag is just that, a tag. It doesn't dictate which codec or container you should use. Currently there are 2 1/2 players: h.264, webm and ogg/vorbis.

H264 is backed up by Apple, so I expect it to have atleast some traction. WebM is backed by Google, meaning YouTube supports it. I'm not familiar with any big names backing OGG but I'm sure there are others beside FSF.

H264 is a great format but sadly it's encumbered by patents as well as a royalty fee which might pose a problem in the future whereas WebM is a royalty-free project. So personally I'm leaning towards WebM coming out as the big "winner" in this battle.

Ranting aside, putting all ones hope into HTML5 as it stands right now is a little risky as it's subject to change and hasn't been locked down yet. Every major player in the web browser business supports the tag currently, including Android as of version 2.0 or 2.1 (can't be bothered to wikipedia it). So the support for it is universal and once a standard has been ratified we can expect it to be adopted by all major video sites. Until then flash is king and luckily the biggest video-site, YouTube, has both iOS and Android apps for it so we can atleast watch LOLcats and FailBlog. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
ABC and CBS have both confirmed that they will be dumping Adobe and going with HTML 5. Only bad news might be that they might charge like itunes to view content. :(

The door is starting to swing wide open.
[XPERIA X10 General] macr59:
Not only will X10 get the 2.1 upgrade, it will also get the 2.2 Upgrade. I have a close friend who works at SE (Senior Figure) and that information is supplied by him. No dates are forthcoming at the moment. So please don't bombard this Post asking for dates.

Found some information to confirm this posted back in Mar 10:

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericlmccormick:
According to http://www.droid-life.com/2010/07/1...feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+DroidLife+(droid+life) there will be an update to Eris phones. One thing I wonder about is they are calling this mandatory.

What happens if you don't install this? I know Verizon tracks who installs patches and I don't want to take chances losing root.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScottytheIncredible:
yeah I'm running EvilEris3.0 on my wife's Eris. I'm actually wanting to go back to the stock 2.1 cause shes not happy with how her phone is acting.....wondering if this will put it back to stock or HOW do I flash it back to the stock ROM?

any help with this would be thankful.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nujackk:
Ok lets not, panic. You need to read the entire thing, and point out that if you have MR3 then MR4 is mandatory but if you only have MR2 then it is only recommended meaning if your current rom has OTA working and you have MR 2 you will be able to ignore the update. If you have MR3 (MR being maintenance release) the update will be eventually be installed for you if you don't do it voluntarily. and you cannot get a replacement for any problems that this is suppose to address if you do not install it
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikolai2.1:
Hey this shouldn't be a big deal. This same update was sent out sometime at the end of last month and those who were rooted were able to root back instantly. Even the 1.49 people. (Assuming you have luck with ADB recovery)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hungry Man:
So it will just temporarily remove root?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikolai2.1:
Pretty much from what I've seen.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hungry Man:
And all we have to do is reflash recovery like we did the first time? That's not so hard.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikolai2.1:
Okay with this new root method and all I'm curious as to know if this MR4 is going to stop us from rooting this method. The old method wasn't stopped, but obviously not everyone can do that method.

[Droid X General] SysAdmNj:
if you try to install custom roms at some point or another, who is thinking about getting insurance for their Droid X?
[Droid X General] Breakthecycle2:
The only way to brick your phone is to install the wrong radio and/or SPL combination. Simply flashing a rom will not render your device permanently useless.
[Droid X General] microdot:
i always get insurance on my phones and its not because i flash custom roms. More for accidents and phyically breaking the phone. Such and awesome and EXPENSIVE device, you would be crazy not to insure it.
[Droid X General] dyn0mite:
Would it be better to go with the $9.99 best buy warranty ( I hear there's no deductable) or $7.00 for verizon's?
[Droid X General] AdamLJ:
Verizons definitely. The black tie protection offered by BB is crap.
[Droid X General] radar5:
Verizon's is $7/ month, right? Squaretrade.com is also an option, but their cost is pretty high on cell phone warranties.

edit: and what's the $9.99 BBY warranty? Do they bill it to you monthly? Online I just see the one-time $169.98 fee.
[Droid X General] Rwelch:
Check with your auto/home insurerer...I have state farm and was able to add smart phone coverage for $2/month. Full coverage no deductible, you break/lose it and they replace it.
[Droid X General] Penguissimo:
Normally that would be the case, but doesn't this change the equation a bit?

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...-locked-down-let-me-tell-you-what-i-know.html
[Droid X General] sablesurfer:
Careful with the home owners. Two years ago there was a lot of stink over people not able to get insurance for next house because they had some minor claim. ANY claim on home owners was enough to get them denied on next house.

This route probably not what you want to do if you 'plan' on 'maybe' losing your phone.

Do your research.
[Droid Eris Android Development] deslovedroid:
I just saw on android central that the Eris will be getting an update on July 16th. I just rooted not to long ago and I love it. Just wanted to know if it is possible for me to still get the OTA update now that I have rooted?
[Droid Eris Android Development] ban_dover:
remember how there was a few people

who got that update a bout 2 weeks ago?

thats what this is. just the rest of them

are getting it.

once someone who gets it can pull the

url, then the devs will be able to put

it into their roms.

Ivans 1.2? :eek:
[Droid Eris Android Development] deslovedroid:
Ok, Thanks!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] atpjoe:
Is this just an update fixing all the garbage problems with the 2.1 OTA? Took 'em long enough. Good thing I rooted the day I got the OTA because it was terrible.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
can we use this to get root for the leakers ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Spencer_Moore:
for some odd reason I doubt it:rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Believe it (an OTA update) when you (or others) see it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mortymouse:
Hopefully I will have my new phone by the time this comes out. I simply had crazy issues with the Eris and am going to get a different phone.

I am going to assume that it will be the end of the month before everyone gets the OTA.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jonscapri:
It'll probably a rolling update across the country since the last big update ordeal crashed a few servers. If you jump on Verizon's site after the rolling update is done you should be bale to update by downloading that way. One of the reasons the was also such a wait for the 2.1 update was there was a big jump from 1.5 to 2.1.

It'll be interesting to see what all happens with the update, and rooted phones.

What do you guys think of an app that let´s you set what you wanna sync, while on charger !

Cause, sync drains battery ... f.ex. when you sync Picasa with hundreds of photos, or hundreds Facebook/Google/...contacts....

So these things could be synced automatically and you don´t have to care.

And when you´r out, you only sync your Email/Twitter and you´re fine, all the other is synced when you charge again.

I got this from WaveSecure, which makes an autobackup while on charger, which is great.

Unfortunately I am not capable of doing this app, but probably some good dev out there :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
so a sort of sync profile management app. Good idea for those who sync a lot of accounts.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rori~:
Yeah -> sync profile management app :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] dictionary:
Do it!!!! Lol. That would be amazing
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] superg81:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] scotte9999:
Locale can do this now

If you want this, then use Locale (market) and one of the Dock plugins for it (a number in the market already). No need for Yet Another App.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rori~:
Thanx for the tip !

But I am not sure...that´s an app for $10...and I cannot find anything about a autosync feature (plugin)...unfortunately the test beta has expired.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
If I can find the api calls to manage accounts I'll try it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rori~:
Thanx :) would be another Must-have-app !!:)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
the app can use http://developer.android.com/reference/android/accounts/AccountManager.html to get the list of accounts and even remove accounts...dont see a way of turning off sync ..yet
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
some bad news:

Known Issues

If you have a stock black bar on your Homescreen, I know that you're using LauncherPro or ADW.Launcher and have a static wallpaper. These two Home Replacements uses Wallpaper Hacks. Thats okay to make the scrolling speed with live wallpapers fast.

On ADW.Launcher you can uncheck the WallpaperHack. You don't need it with static wallpapers.

On LauncherPro you don't have this chance, sorry. Write to the creator of LauncherPro to make this optional^^
