[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Texarc:
Compared to whom? You? Don't think so. Not as well educated in the Android system, perhaps....

I printed the instructions on the 15th at 10:29pm Central time, and dl'd all the files needed in the instructions I printed. There was no warning posted then, and therefore none, on my printouts.

Unfortunately I spent the last two days burning 4 tanks of air trying to splice 700 feet of 230v 10guage wire in Lake Travis and locate/repair a 1/2 horsepower submersible pump in near zero visibility 30 to 45 feet deep water comprising approximately 70 yards by 250 yards in area. I found the damn pump, respliced the wires that some other retarded SOB ripped apart with an anchor (used watertight splices, by the way), and restored air conditioning coolant to my house. And no, I did not get bent but I did push the tables a bit but my experiences held me in good stead. I also put in a shift as a pharmacist where I taught a number of people about their meds and answered many random questions (FOR FREE) without ever once calling someone a retard, and spent time coaching a paralympian in elite target (olympic) archery.

Today after attending and assisting in a presentation on health and nutrition I settled down with the printed docs and files I had, followed the instructions carefully, and systematically failed repeatedly on several different laptops. Running on 64bit win, I am used to running into all sorts of FAIL situations.

Again, I'm looking at the docs, and that statement is NOT there.

Yeah, I don't know everything about Android OS, but I'm learning a lot (thanks to folks NOT like you). :D

SO you know more about this than I do, fine. My first OS was DOS 2.0 on a portable I assembled (would you be retarded to not know how many 16k chips you have to populate a daughterboard with in order to get from 512k up to 640k of RAM?? ) built in oh, 1981 or 82 or so, with a 6 inch CRT, dual 720k flopps, and when I'm feeling really retarded I put my OS/2 WARP baseball cap on sideways. When you are an old retard like me things that long ago get a little fuzzy, I guess.

I'm always glad to make someone else feel superior, but I usually do it by teaching them something they don't know so that they can do that something, well, better. But if I made you feel superior by merely posing a question, then hey, that's great, I guess I succeeded without even trying...Just wish you didn't purposely demean me at the same time...

Dude really, come on thats a lame excuse, you came onto the boards, had a question that needed an answer, most people would say "hey look they have a question and answer forum all setup" and then go use it.

And then right at the top is this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=747495

Which states in bold letters "THERE IS NO KNOWN WAY TO ROOT FROYO 2.2", question answered and you never even had to hit the search function.

Your question is "root froyo" try typing that in, get back a crap ton of results.

If your ever in doubt as to what to search for just type in a natural language question, ex: "how do I root 2.2" and you will get an answer.

I would like to have 2 working vibrants. That would be nice it would give me a test phone and a normal use phone. I will probably just do the insurance and be done. And worry about this screen later on. The screen being cracked has minimal effects on viewing the screen and zero effect to the responsiveness of the the touch screen but it does get annoying to look at after a while. And I do have this one running a 1741 quadrant score with little effort but will work great on the insurance claim phone

Here is the link that has the captivate screen, you might call them and see if they can get the Vibrant. The price on the 'Cap' is really cheap in compirson to what i thought it would be. Only like $75.

[Vibrant General] neoseal:
Just some FYI if you do decide to file an insurance claim for your phone. From what I was told from T-mobile when I filed a claim for a phone a few years ago, once the phone is replaced by the insurance company, you can no longer go through T-mobile for a replacement under warranty. If you have any problems after replacement you have to go through the insurance company for everything. At least that's what they told me.....but like 90% of everything else I am told, that might be wrong lol. Just thought I would give ya a heads up.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avazee:
I've had this issue happen a few times, so I disregarded it, but just a few minutes ago it happened 3 times in a row. Here is what happens:

I'm in the middle of a phone call, and suddenly I hear a beep, and I look at the phone and the call was disconnected (I'm back on the 'Phone' screen). I then realize that the phone becomes unresponsive (the screen doesn't respond, same thing goes for the Home/Menu/Back/Search buttons).

The only thing I can do is press the top 'Off/Lock' button to shut off the screen, then press it again, and everything goes back to normal.

This happened 3 times within 5 minutes.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? If so, any advice/solutions?

My 30-day purchase window is up in about a week, so I'd like to get this resolved before then to avoid any headaches.

Thanks in advance.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
Have you loaded any apps? Modified the phone at all?

I've never seen this type of behaviour before.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avazee:
Thanks for the reply. No, I haven't rooted it, or loaded custom time or anything. The only thing I've done is just download/install some Apps from the Android Market, that's it.

What do you all think I should do?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avazee:
*bump*

I think I may have fixed the issue -- I had the Google Voice installed on my phone, and when I uninstalled it, I haven't had the problem since (it's been about 3 days).

Has anyone else experienced any stability issues or glitches using the Google Voice app?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whitepaint:
My mom has been having this issue with her stock 2.1 Inc... She says the screen suddenly stops working and all that will work is the power button and volume rocker. Says it usually happens mid call.

PS. she doesn't have google voice. And google voice doesn't cause this issue on my Inc.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avazee:
Yeah, it just happened to me again, and I don't have Google Voice installed, so that's not the culprit.

[Vibrant Android Development] defconoi:
Surprisingly we dont yet have monitor mode, airsniffing, or aircracking capabilities within android. The drivers are open source and require some modifications for these features to be taken advantage of. How hard would it be for the dev's here to rewrite the wireless drivers to enable monitor mode? Also wouldnt it be neat to have a android/debian mix'ed rom where we can apt-get things right to the phone instead of a chrooted environment? It would be cool to see some more hacking at this and other things. Let's unleash the wireless functionality of these devices.

It would be cool to get aircrack working on our devices, people with iphones got monitor mode working, just not injection. From what I have seen injection is possible for us, so whats keeping us back from unleashing it?

Also Metasploit Mobile would be a killer addition to android if it only requires python :)

Ok It seems monitor mode is possible on the bcm4329 chipset which is in our devices and needs a rewrite

BTW which someone already has done and has a how-to guide here http://blog.coralic.nl/2010/08/17/ubuntu-on-samsung-galaxy-s-android/

Don't want to lead anyone off with that link, just wanted to plug that in in case anyone else wanted to try it.

But truly this is where the true FUN is, you know. I would love to use a wireshark like type app or aircrack for that matter. I would die to have apt-get built in to the OS.
[Vibrant Android Development] RapidDemon:
I have actually been considering working on a project like this for a few weeks. I'll see what's involved next week when I'm on vacation. Ultimately I was hoping to port something similar to kismet to the Galaxy S phone with nice GUI for wireless network penetration testing.

If anyone else has systems development experience and wants to work with me on this, PM me and we can get in touch.
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
To be honest with you guys.

It would be best to get in contact with HD MOORE of Metasploit or the authors of this software and request for a port.

The metasploit port woul be easy. as it only requires python.

I am personal friends of his.
[Vibrant Android Development] RapidDemon:
Metasploit, if it only requires Python, is probably trivial to port to Android. I'm personally interested in working on Aircrack, Monitor Mode, and Packet Injection. These are very different projects and perhaps should be two separate threads.

get ahold of him and see what he can do, metasploit would rock

[Vibrant Android Development] WarkerAnhaltRanger:
1) you will need ruby for metasploit

2) Metasploit has nothing to do with monitor mode

3) you will need to patch the bcm4329 module to gain access to the monitor interface

4) you will need a firmware for the bcm4329 chip that supports monitor mode

-> 1 and 2: There are working debian systems that could run with Android there you just need apt-get install ruby etc. (working for me)

-> 3: someone in the aircrack-forum already ported the driver and he posted his changes.

-> 4: here is the real problem.. you'll need to reverse engineer and patch the binary firmware to support the monitor mode

It is a network monitoring app similar to Wireshark, but for Android.
