thanks for the file, I had accidentally cleared the data from the file in Manage Applications. When I go to install it I get the message REPLACE APPLICATION, This is a system application. Do you want to replace it? When I click yes, I get an error that says APPLICATION NOT INSTALLED. MyTouch 3G Slide is not rooted, but has been updated to the newest T-mobile firmware. Any suggestions?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vellowax:
Just a thought,

Whether there will be a community release of an Android ROM for vogue, which all devs come together in a team and make -maybe- one Android ROM ?

It would gain more advantage because all the devs will contribute according to their respective ideas and if this happen, it's must be a must have android for vogue.

Thank you for all the devs here that make our vogue life.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jadenj5:
like one big mega rom (: i know they all help each other in one way or another but this mega rom would be a pretty cool idea
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mssmison:
Honestly, it's pretty much like that already, :)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Lol -

every

release is a community release. That sounds funny but everybody is using something somebody else did, I guarantee it. You should go on a history walk and find out when things got done and who did them...

The installer, for instance (vilord) - we all see it every time we load a new build. it's been around for quite a while now and hasn't really needed any changes. We had a method before that that dzo had cooked up but it was, ahem, a bit confusing for some (somehow.) Or GPS - a ton of early work by srwalter. Fixes by dzo. A ton of revision by jnadke. Further enhancements by kallt_kaffe.

Obviously, none of those things would have happened without dzo.

This leaves out a ton of folks, of course - mssmison, for example, had his hands and say in just about everything when he was around.

All that to say, every dev uses a bunch of stuff that others have done. Every release is a community release. That's the way it's meant to be, that's the way it is, and we all benefit as a result. :)

*hugs*

EDIT:

Right - what he said. :) Brevity is the soul of... something.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] vellowax:
Yes, i agree with that.

actually, vilord build is my first android rom on vogue and Dzo is the magician here -you are not really retire from this great forum right ?

So, i'm wondering if the ROM might goes into like this ;

"How about if i have Dzo build or K_K build with a ton of Incubus and Myn blazing design and tweak and many other contributions by all the devs here ie for the zImage, initrd, maybe some splash screen, apps or the battery performance (*Can we steal this from CM?) so i can say "This is my android stock ROM for vogue"

But anyway I'm not a programmer, I'm just a user.

thanks for sharing.

Hope this will not hurt anyone.

Hey guys noob at this so dont hate i wanted to know if it is possible to swap antennae hardware from a captivate to a I9000 i got the i9000 and i am on at&t stupid thing doesnt give me 3G like my beautiful nexus wanted to know if it was possible or not.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] larryccf:
others more knowledgeable will step in, but don't believe it's antenna related as it is freq band related

if the radio chip in the i9000 isn't there for the AT&T bands (believe they're 850 & 1900 but i could be off there)

search this and the captivate forum for similiar topics - there was a thread about someone activating the AT&T freqs on a Tmobile Vibrant - but don't think they were able to activate them on an i9000 phone

there's a code you punch into the dial pad and it brings up the appropriate menu

there's some info re 3G freq bands at about the middle of the page at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735461&highlight=unlock&page=3

here's the one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735461&highlight=unlock&page=9

and in particular, the below info copied from the above thread

"Well lookie here.

On the phone's management screen, you can actually enable the 850mhz band also. This also confirms what UMTSbands are included on the device.

850

1700

1900

2100

That's in addition to the normal quadband GSM that's already available.

First pic is before I enabled 850, second pic is after that.

Based on this thread in the I9000/GalaxyS forum.

How to do it:

1. on the key pad, type *#*#197328640#*#*

2. Select [1] Debug Screen

3. Select [8] Phone control

4. Select [7] Network control

5. Select [2] Network Selection

6. Select [4] Combi Bands []

7. Select [8] WCDMA 850 (FDD V)[]

8. Press Menu Button; Select "Back" to take you to band selection screen.

9. Select [2] WCDMA band []

there is another thread, where someone tried a i9000 and couldn't get 3G on AT&T, if i recall correctly - but search the captivate forum for that one

that wasn't the thread i was referring to - if i see it, i'll post it as well"

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
just curious, is there any particular reason why USB tethering hasn't been hacked yet?

i know there are app's but is there something at the core of the Android OS or HTC part of the OS that is completely blocking USB tethering without the hotspot function.

one would like to believe that, if a programmer wanted to, they could simply do a dump of their current system, then call Sprint and sign up for the hotspot, let it get initialized on the phone, then do a dump of the phone again and do a comparison.

and then shut off the service as soon as you are done using it.

Sprint will prorate the monthly fee if you dont use it all month.

Sprint sends something to the phone to say "Hotspot initialized, Hotspot Authorized" and there has to be something in the OS that is either altered or added that can then be emulated or spoofed in a rooted rom.

thats my thoughts on it.

is there anyone with the knowledge and not just b.s. talk who can actually answer this properly?

3rd party apps are fine but not when they have to be installed on the client side of the link (the pc)

the flipside is that you can simply keep it on your memory card and just pull it off the memory card and install it on whatever pc/laptop you want to tether to.

but again, a 3rd party application to do this i do not believe is needed.

Windows sees the phone as a internet device to be used, so whatever PDANet is doing, should be able to be done on the phone alone, right?

Google Tetherbot... Free, no software on host PC.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
What does the hotspot feature have to do with USB tethering?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
you have to pay the $30/mth for the hotspot feature in order to enable USB tethering, it is part of the feature set and says so right in the description of the package.

that is why you get the Error 67 if you try to usb tether and have not paid for the hotspot feature.

tetherbot seems interesting but truth be told, again you are using a 3rd party app to initilize the connection, ADB.

i guess the next question would be, do you have to do the proxy setup everytime you usb tether? or just once?

it would only take 10sec to write a .bat file with the instructions, but i guess it comes down to why hasnt it been hacked to just run ... without all the other stuff.

again, Tetherbot is doing something that is opening the door to a final solution.

if its an app on the phone thats cool and i completely understand but having to alter the communction system between your pc and phone (by using adb to set a proxy port) seems wierd.

why the proxy settings. is port 1080 the only open port on the phone side of the link when usb is plugged in?

i could see that, but if 1 port is open, then they all can be openen, its just a matter of letting it.

i guess i dont see the need for the whole proxy system. shouldnt there be some command to just open everything up like it normally would be and not just one port?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tws101:
Just download PDAnet from the Market. USB tether no monthly charges.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
not to be a pita - but I've never seen usb tethering in any description of the hotspot feature from Sprint, can you point it out? I've never had the need for either the hotspot or usb tethering, so I probably just glossed right over it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edufur:
I don't really see the need for him to point it out. If you are that curious, just go look... what he is telling you is correct. You cannot ICS without the $30 fee... hotspot OR tethering. (Unless it is hacked). I am pretty sure there is no confusion on the hack though. This is widely done with rooted phones. So it isn't a matter of people not knowing how... it is a matter of having the priv on the phone to do it. Without root, other 3rd party options are the only way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
fair enough - the way he described it, I thought it was a sprint thing and not a hack. I was looking, but I was looking in all of the Sprint materials (website, user guide, etc) about the hotspot feature and wasn't able to find anything about it also allowing usb tethering - only the wireless tethering. I wasn't doubting him or anything. Like I said in my other post, I thought I just missed it since I never really looked into the hotspot feature before.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
technically it is a sprint thing and the phone has to be hacked to make it work.

the hack being rooting the phone.

Sprint locks the phones, so when you enable USB tethering on the phone, your PC sees it, calls it an internet connection at something like 460mbps (because its usb) and expects internet traffic in and out of that connection.

BUT

the phone checks itself and sprint, then says, oh wait, i dont have the hotspot feature enabled because i dont have the authorization key,,, so... no USB tethering, and here is your Error 67.

now the authorization key is just a theory but a legitimate one and one that is used daily on thousands of devices.

if it is all surrounding the hotspot feature, which it very well may be, then i guess finding a hack for the hotspot would be next. and not wifi tethering for root users, but a legit hack to the HTC/Sprint program.

usb tethering is available for paid app's or free apps that just make a proxy.

i guess my whole point is to just ask what is it about the usb tethering that isnt hacked to NOT give the error 67....

there is something there that can be bypassed or otherwise....

i was aware of that thread until it was broken and not working (the tether function) then i moved on...

this doesn't work on froyo kernels ATM

and what he is asking for isn't a freaking APP READ he is asking about making a rewrite to the core of the phone to allow NATIVE tether without adding some kind of app to work around the issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheldonbotha:
Hey guys.... so

I've personally wanted this myself, yes there are other 3rd party apps, then you have to install their software on your machine...petty of me I know, but what can I say.

So after rooting with a bunch of ROMS on my EVO, I moved to FreshEVO which so far is my favorite.

Today I upgraded to v 3.4.0.1, according to the release notes, this has just what the original poster is after:

Changes from Fresh Evo 3.3.0.1 to 3.4.0.1:

* Based on a new Sprint OTA (3.30.651.2)

* New kernel by HTC (g0f673ed)

o Modified slightly to allow apps2sd and remount to work

o Has fps unlocked by default, straight from HTC's source!

* Upped MMS size limit to 5mb (thanks to calkulin)

* Added mod to prevent MMS from compressing image unless it's over 5mb limit (thanks to calkulin)

* Added mod to unlock Sprint wired tether so that you can tether straight through the normal USB menu when you plug in your phone (thanks to calkulin. If it's not working for you then you are probably missing drivers on your computer. Check device manager. Works on 3g or wifi only)

* Updated Wireless Tether to 2.0.5-pre-11

* Updated DarkTremor apps2sd to 2.7.5.2

* Updated Google Maps to 4.5.1

* Updated Google Search to 1.1.2

* Updated YouTube to 2.0.26

* Updated busybox to 1.16.0

* There were no radio updates or updates to any system apks or jars in this OTA.

* 3.4.0.0-3.4.0.1: Fixed a browser bug. Find the small patch in Fresh Updater if you were on 3.4.0.0 already

Just thought this may be useful for those who have not come across it as yet.

Cheers

Why is stealing 30$ a month from sprint OK, but movies/tv warez stuff is off limits?

I get that our phones have unlimited plans, but when your tetherd to a computer there is a huge difference in usage. If they dont have the 30$ tethering charge, then they cant make enough money to keep internet unlimited. If they cant do that then we just wont have unlimited data in the future.

Also how can this forum justify not allowing info on streaming movies, which would add up to the cost of a netflix subscription (9$), while at the same time allowing a practice that costs 3 times that AND will lead to the crippling of our data plans?????

Sorry to play devils advocate but this has bothered me for a while.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
um, excuse me for being a party pooper, but it has been hacked. Look for caulkin's evo fixes. One of these is the usb and wifi authorization fix. It still can't work with 4g because the authorization is somewhere else with that, but it works both ways perfectly on 3g just as fast as without. U r welcome

dk
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheldonbotha:
Yeah, I've only used tethering to see how it worked once, when the device was still on 2.1, and then, 4G had that bug which allows it to run for free.....

Personally, I dont think that allowing tethering on the device would put much of a dent in Sprint's profit margin at all.

Wifi tethering allows you up to 8 devices, but split this on 3g or even 4g and your speeds are going to be anything but spectacular.......

Usb tethering limits to 1 device, but at higher speeds yes....still the bandwidth coming through to the phone I have found to be only for use in emergencies, since its by no means near my cable connection (even on 4g, since indoors my 4g strength is 1/5 bars).

Now if I'm travelling with a laptop, the first thing I'm going to do is go to a coffee shop, pay 4 or 5 bucks for some coffee and get a real connection, not rely on tethering off my phone.

If I was out in the middle of no where, the battery usage alone of the phone and/or laptop would not exactly have me sitting around for hours downloading gigs of data.

With as much as I use this phone (and I use it a lot), streaming, downloading roms, music, market apps, browsing, email....I still have yet to see my data usage exceed 300Mb per month.

Downloading on 4G for large files is acceptable, but the dent to my battery is such that it is not worth the effort, 3g is painful enough for large files that I feel like I'm still living in Africa (yes I'm from there with the good ol 56k modem).

I'm not supporting stealing at all, but if anything would hurt Sprints finances, it would probably be the ginormous amount of dollars they sponsor to things like nascar, not the small portion of subscribers that are technically literate enough to root their phones and get free tethering, let alone how much they would actually use it.

I see that things are quite different in Samsung Android modding. I have the kernel compiled. that is no issue. what i am having a difficult time figuring out is how to include and create the ramdisk to flash in Odin. My compiled zImage is only 2.7MB while the stock one is 7.5MB.
[Vibrant General] neasoon:
There is a build option you can set as the path where the initramfs is. Then in the kernel building process, a cpio archive is created, gzipped, appended to kernel image, and then gzipped again and after adding a header, it becomes the large zImage
[Vibrant General] j_r0dd:
ok that is what i thought was going on. it was just creating a larger zImage. has anybody seen a tutorial laying around anywhere??
[Vibrant General] neasoon:
Find the wiki page of galaxy s on xda-developers.com. There is a link to a script which shows how to extract initramfs cpio from the zImage but you should change it a bit to make it work.

So basically, you dump the stock kernel image, extract the stock initramfs and insert it into your customized kernel image.
