Might be coming sooner than some of you expect. HTC seems to be getting serious about froyo

http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/28/htc-beginning-froyo-rollout-tomorrow-maybe-maybe-not/

http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/29/htc-will-ship-all-android-phones-in-china-with-froyo-on-board-f/

Granted we'll have to deal with att.
[HTC Aria General] wxjoe:
I think we will see one, but it will be a pain to install. The phone, for whatever reason, cannot accepted over-the-air (OTA) updates... there's no option in the settings to see if there is an update like most other android phones. HTC has said you will need to use HTC sync to upgrade. (Though I'm sure many of the people here at xda will have no problem loading the ROM via Sync or other ways, for regular users this could be a pain.)
[HTC Aria General] kura808:
Thought I'd share. I found this bit of info on the htc support forums in the aria section.

Posted by HeavenLee on 22 Jul 2010 2:12 PM

Whne there is an update for the Aria-it will have to be loaded from a PC to your device. The good news is that after the first update for the Aria, Firmware Over The Air will be implemented so that any subsequent updates will arrive to your device over the Air once their are released. Currently, there are no updates for the Aria OS-they are in the works.

So it is quite possible we may be getting froyo because she said it's "in the works." One of the other HTC forum moderators said it may take a while because it will be "tested and approved" by att and that we'll need to update it via sync.

So from what I understand, she said after the first update, there will be more updates released OTA. Froyo is gonna be a sync update so when she says any subsequent updates will arrive, does that mean she's hinting we'll be getting updates past froyo? Maybe we'll be able to get 3.0 ;P I mean what other updates will there be? lol
[HTC Aria General] wxjoe:
I'd LOVE to get 3.0, but I'll be happy with 2.2.

There is a post at Unwired review (can't post link until my account is verified.. not sure if there is a way to 'request' to be verified), but it's from Unwired Review. Just google "Android 3 Gingerbread."

But then there was an update to the post:

So could we get it? Yes. And I think with the speed htc is pushing out the updates, it's not a question for them of "do we update the aria," it's the same question for many of their phones, since so many htc android phones are similiar inside and out.
[HTC Aria General] Cryptecks:
Froyo for the Aria is something I have been looking forward to for a while now, and seeing it any later than October would be a huge letdown.
[HD2 General] voldor:
Hello,

do you know if there is a way to extract wifi WPA2 key from the mobile once it has been set-up ?
[HD2 General] jdwrrzmm:
This isn't too helpful, but I remember a developer talking about his import/export settings program and I think he mentioned that he couldn't export the wifi or email passwords. Hopefully someone will be along with something more concrete.

I'm new to Android phones and I'm new to this forum. I just tried to post a direct download link to the Samsung Kies App and the forum restrictions blocked it cause I'm new. There's a lot I have to learn about the Captivate. I have my phone rooted and I'm looking for some nice stuff for my phone to do. I'm open to any app suggestions.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
I have been trying for some time now,pushing files via adb commands onto nexus one but keep getting cannot copy file read only file error.I am fully rooted and unlocked.I have also reinstalled the android sdk but always get the same error when I push the image file.has anyone experienced this with their phone. I have a feeling its something to do with the SD card but can't be sure.any help would be appreciated. Thanks.:confused:

I know you must be thinking "Jedi"how can he can he call himself an androidjedi when he can't sort this simple problem (to some of you),but I must say even a Jedi needs to learn!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrNameless:
try adb remount before your command
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
Dunno if this will help but have tried changing the system to rw then try to push
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
Tried that no cigar
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
are you trying to push it into your sdcard or the phone system??

and remember the whole folder name has to be in the push so it woul have to look like

C:\Users\Android>ad push "C:\Users\Android\Downloads\Android\Nexus 1\Phone.apk" /sdcard/files

has to have full path of where you are pushing it from/too.. i have mine sdk setup to use adb in any directory as well why you dont see it in the sdk directory
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
@ilostchild

Thanks i will try that later today and let you know

As for pushing the file - i am trying to push it to the sd card - but i am not really sure as i am following instructions in the [HOW-TO] Revert HBOOT 0.35.0017 to 0.33.0012 thread in the forum

as i need to downgrade my Hboot from #17 to 12

are the commands different for pushing a file to the phone?:confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
the more i think about i think i need to flash the file to the phone - but i will try your adb command format of specifying the location of the file in the comp
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
Ooo you want to push to sdcard.. ok then yea, you would type it like this

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools> adb push C:\Users\Android\Downloads\Android\signed-passion-FRF50-from-

ERE27.1e519a24.zip /sdcard*

if you dont have the option to use adb in any directory, then you have to be in the android sdk directory and in tools

cd android-sd-windows

cd tools

adb push(drag the file you want to push in the command prompt window) /sdcard*

sorry i know its detailed and im sure you know all these things.. but it kinda gets the questions out of the way for future problems to come
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
thanks for spending time on this-i am new to the android world so any help is welcome-however detailed or not

thanks will try that
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
how do i change the system to read write as i am still getting cannot copy file read only file error
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
do adb shell

su

Mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

then exit and exit

then do push
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
tried that did the push and all i got was 950 KB/s <0 bytes in 76044.000s>

looks like its not pushing the file not sure what to do now
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
Umm if you got that mesage you may have pushed it in right..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
does not seem to have worked for some reason as after flashing it should reboot in htc mode and then i would be able to flash a rom with the hboot12
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
May i ask what are you trying to push into your phone/sdcard?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:
I am trying to follow the instructions on the thread which can be found in the the following link xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=726258

basically trying to flash two image files that enable downgrading the Hboot from 0.35.0017 to 0.33.0012
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjedi:

I second this. Want!

But this theme would have to be for Sense UI, based on the features described. Everything being connected and full screen widgets.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] grainysand:
Hmmm, a heavily modified SlideScreen, maybe. Or a SweeterHome theme. Or a judiciously themed Launcher Pro dock plus that time/battery widget that displays as text.

It looks pretty, but for day-to-day use I suspect it's not very functional. Given Android and some alterations, though, I could see something classy enough to rival DarkEdge.

The Captivate was released for sale on a Sunday. Just saying.
[Streak 5 General] The Jack of Clubs:
yeah if youre happy with a miserably small 4" screen and cant wait a few days for a 5" one. everyone will laugh at you and say "look how tiny his phone is! what a loser". do you want that? i didnt think so.
[Streak 5 General] Charles::
I don't think you get what I was saying. People here were saying that given it's a Sunday, Dell wouldn't release the phone on that day. I simply responded that the Captivate was released on a Sunday. So in other words, I was saying that a Sunday release was possible.

As for the rest of your comment, I personally don't give a $hit if someone else thinks my phone is too small or too big. :)
[Streak 5 General] Techvir:
4" Screen is small ?:confused:

Are we talking abt TV screens ?

Looks like i am missing something

Bac to the topic.... I was waiting for this handset for many months ( actually the first time i saw it it when micheal dell showed it to public in india, i fell in love) and wish it come out soon... Wont complain even if it comes out tmw

wow. nobody can take jokes. :P

its august 1st. you have 24 hours to be correct.
[Streak 5 General] ronj1986:
All AT&T smartphones are released on Sundays (iphone exception). I don't think the Streak will be released today though. If it were to come out tomorrow that means we could pre-order today and that's obviously not happening, so lets just hope for a release within 2 weeks from now.

What do you guys think the holdup is? The phone had been in UK nearly 2 months now, how hard is it to swap radio band & release? I think they are waiting to put Android 2.1 on it;-)

Are you releasing a direct purchase, uncrippled, updateable (to FROYO) Streak or not.
[Streak 5 General] aloudermilk:
Delay on Release has to be AT&T :-(

I am sure AT&T has caused this delay by some demand for something in the ROM to prevent people from rooting and using Tethering apps.

[Streak 5 General] abezapata:
LOL I am one of those people. I waited and waited but nothing. Now Dell gathers the courage to show the phone and throw out some dates and spark hope in our helpless brothers and sisters on AT&T waiting for an android phone, but to their dismay, Dell pulls the plug on their launch date. I am glad I did not wait! Join me on the new Galaxy that is the Captivate.
[Streak 5 General] tekkitan:
It's because they went with AT&T. Big mistake on their part, especially with AT&T limiting data plans now.

[Streak 5 General] hmose:
We Yanks should not be so optimistic. No matter when they release it here, the little gnomes at AT&T will decide the fate of 2.2 on our Streaks. Remember, no IPhone or AT&T sold Android phone has EVER gotten an OS upgrade. Backflip folks are still in 1.3
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blastroid:
great forum - hope this is the right place to ask this question

New to android and smart phones but doing it up with my new Nexus One on stock froyo ROM.

My work network has some issues including erroneous DHCP addresses being dished up in the wrong 192.168... range (old office infrastructure fix for the problem is someone else's gig).

I want to do a /release /renew on my Nexus One to pick up a legit ip address (on our windoze machines we just do the ipconfig /release /renew).

Is there an equivalent for this phone and Android? I have searched around and picked up a couple of network stat apps but they don't have the release/renew. Sure I can keep rebooting or killing WiFi and reconnecting but would like to know if there is a better way.

thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
Instead of trying to band-aid a problem, you should just fix the existing DHCP issue.

Seriously, DHCP is one of the simplest protocols to set up. Take 10 minutes, track down the range issue, correct it, and never worry about it again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If I understand it correctly, you're looking for "netcfg eth0 dhcp" command, or possibly:

"netcfg eth0 down"

"netcfg eth0 up"

"netcfg eth0 dhcp"
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andresehn:
Jack, I tried those commands, and on the last one I got this:

action 'dhcp' failed (No such process)

Also, if I just run netcfg between down and up, it seems like eth0 is never disabling properly. I am in superuser mode.

Any hints?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yozo64:
try netcfg alone

I just ran 'netcfg' alone and it turns out it's wlan0 instead of eth0.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickrick:
To do a DHCP release and renew:

Fire up terminal emulator and type:

su

dhcpcd -k wlan0

dhcpcd -n wlan0

Turn wifi off/on and you'll get a new dhcp ip address rather than just a refresh on the existing one.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pevogam:
If it's a different interface, say eth1, you might need to run 'dhcpcd eth1' first. You can verify the DHCP configuration via 'getprop | grep dhcp'.

Ohai cookers!

I have a problems here. I've completely flash the EVO 2 ROM perfectly on my Opal. I can use all the function nicely. However, after I install the ezInput, and restart my Opal, the smart mobility loading screen freeze at that point.

Any clues bout this probs?

Thanks.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] BHNx:
hi eXodes,

i had the same problem like you. I performed a hard reset.

For performing a hard reset: Press talk, end and power at the same time
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] GFX:
This is a known bug with the Evo 2 ROM. DO NOT install ezInput on this ROM. Wait for Evo Ultimate or install another ROM.

In the meantime, a hard reset is your only option here. Try Finger Keyboard, it works well with Evo2 and offers a good substitute for the default keyboard.

Good luck..
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] eXodes:
I can get it right now. Yeah. Its bugged. D: Oh well. Thanks guys. I really hopes Evo Ultimate doesn't highly abused the icon and stuff. XD

I too have been trying to make one, although I'm trying to make one of slightly higher quality. To me the method you have chosen sort of makes it a more attractive option to just have it be laying on the table. I have been experimenting with several prototype concepts of mine and I will consider sharing if any of them work. My biggest limitation obviously is the lack of a 3d printer, so I have to make it out of sculpt-able materials.
[Captivate Accessories] phlunkie:
Sweet, please keep us updated.
[Captivate Accessories] Shovelhead84:
I just made one over the weekend. I made it out of wood and scrap aluminum that I had laying around. I don't have pictures right now but I will post them if anyone is interested. It is more of a bedside clock radio adaptation for the phone than a desktop dock.

Some"features" and what I did;

1. Small wood box (9"wide X 5" deep X 5" tall).

2. Phone slides/docks into aluminum plate on front.

2a. USB plug goes to wall charger.

2b. Headphone jack goes to amplifier inside dock

3. Internal amp has control nob under the phone for Volume, Bass and Treble.

4. Each side of the dock box has 3" speaker powered by the internal amp.

The first build is black with brushed aluminum plates. By the dimensions listed above you can see the size is slightly large. That is intended to provide good acoustics for the chosen speakers and amplifier. I have not solid mounted the plugs yet as I do not like my fist dock plate design and will be changing it. After the dock plate is finished I will hard mount the plugs for smooth single action docking.

If anyone is interested in seeing this monstrosity I can post up some pics. I am happy with the design but need to finalize it. I think it;s nice considering it was done with scraps around the house.
