If anyone is looking for an armband for the dell streak 5 you might want to try one that was designed for the samsung note. It may fit since the arm band is designed for 5.3" screen. They have it available on ebay right now, I'm gonna try it out.
[Streak 5 Accessories] zAm1987:
Thats a great idea! Haven't thought about it this. I'll definitely try one of the Note's armbands.

Maybe there are other accessoires of the note which will fit with the streak as well. Would at least triple the amount of available accessoires :rolleyes:
[Streak 5 Accessories] yokuoh:
Ok I'm sorry I take it back!

I'm going to get me one too - now I can be like Sam Fisher out of Splinter Cell.

The neoprene one for the note on ebay should be just fine...

:cool:
[Streak 5 Accessories] trunks10k:
I have a Coach Men's Pouch My GF bought for me off the website I will post pic of it when I'm home from work but that's what I carry my Streak in and it fits perfectly plus added room and pockets for my wallet and keys.

Found out its called the "Heritage Stripe Hip Bag"

You can also buy the Gucci one which is a lil bit more but good thing is if you go down chinatown your bound to find a knock off for under 50$
[Streak 5 Accessories] ashr:
LOL why would you want to strap a brick to your arm?
[Streak 5 Accessories] (InsertNameHere):
Possibly for weight lifting or for toning?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Potokp:
No Problem :-D

I had it about 1 year and its very useful.. cycling walking.. (still not skiing, and diving)

I'd like to be able to use Haret to boot an OpenBSD kernel and want to compile on the machine itself.
[General Questions and Answers] mr-bisquit:
I've used a custom script to cross compile the new kernel image.

Is there a way of using the native bootloader to boot the new kernel instead of through WinCE?

Is there a way of bypassing WinCE's rebooting when a kernel causes undervolting?

This is being done with a modified OpenBSD/zaurus kernel and a bsd.rd renamed as an initrd.
[General Questions and Answers] mr-bisquit:
I found a solution.
[Droid Incredible General] dalepl:
Is there any word when the unrevoked team will release a version of unrevoked that will work on Froyo? I messed up and loaded the OTA RUU and did not unrevoke forever before doing this. I have tried downgrading back to 2.1, but have had no luck. Every time I launch the RUU, the phone disconnect, so the RUU cannot read the phone. When I close the RUU, the phone reconnects.

If anyone has a fix for this, then maybe I can downgrade to 2.1 and then do the update correctly. Otherwise, I will have to wait on the unrevoked team.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] tchebb:
Just put this on the root of your SD card as PB31IMG.zip, boot into hboot, and hope it doesn't complain about the radio version. Then use unrevoked3 for clockwork, unrevoked forever for s-off, and re-flash the RUU.
[Droid Incredible General] dalepl:
If this is the stock 2.1, I tried it. The system rejected it because it was an earlier version. Thanks.

This should help

What about the exploid for DX that works with Evo as well. Has anyone tried this on an OTA 2.2 Inc? It would be a bummer to have to downgrade to upgrade again.
[Droid Incredible General] dalepl:
TIS201. I will give this s try when I get home from work. Looks promising. Thanks. Will let you guys know how it goes.
[Droid Incredible General] dalepl:
OK. I gave this a try and all looked good until I rebooted the phone. Once again the bootloader said I was trying to load an older image and would not load. :mad: So, I looked around and found some other links. In the end, what I found that in the instructions, step 6 says:

adb shell

cd /data/local/tmp

chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin

cd /data/local

chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image

In another forum I found a difference in the instructions in that it used 777 instead of 0755. I tried this and the phone loaded the PB31IMG.zip file as it should. :) The only problem I then had was there was something wrong with the file and I was stuck in the bootloader. :( I downloaded a different image and tried again. This one also loaded and this time the phone booted just fine. I now have the phone back to stock with 2.1 Update1. :D

Thanks for your help. I think after I get everything back up and running, I will post the steps with the correct data. Now, to reroot the phone and this time load unrevoke forever. :D

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i<3myphone:
I have the same prob. I am not sure how to fix it. I am scared to call TMo b/c I have the $9.99 internet plan. I don't want to get busted and have to pay for the data $$ plan.

i had the same problem.. i called tmo and they tried everything in their power to help me.. hahaha yea right! lol but anyways, they really did try to help but nothing worked.. i could receive them but couldnt send them..

*** I fixed this issue =]].. if you have the sms app handcent *** :D:D

click on it, hit the menu button, got to settings, hit send message settings, scroll down to "maximum mms size" choose 300K... by default it would say 1M, thats too big for most phones..

it worked for me, hopefully you too =]]

My situation is a little different.

I can send and receive to all my family and friends. Except one friend.

He can send, and I can receive.

But I can't send him any MMS. They show up as blank.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidPerson:
Android resizes to send mms on the nexus but it doesn't make it small enough for a lot of phones like the iPhone, I can't send mms to my friends with iPhones. I don't know whether android just hates apple that much or whether android just didn't think sending mms was near the top of their customers' lists. Android can be really out of touch alot of the time. But you can use a third party app to send mms. I feel like a jackass to have to tell you to get a third party app to perform on your "super"phone what for all other "smart"phones is a basic function, but that's android for you. Maybe when they fix the ui theyll add a function that lets us send mms to the most popular phone in America.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
I was able to send MMS to everyone, without issues. This only happened when I went Froyo.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larsn84:
Hi

Just installed the new OpenDesire 4.0 and hoped a returning problem for me would go away by itself, but unfortunalety it didn't.

As some of you probably know, facebook for android is removed in OpenDesire, but when I try to reinstall it from market, it says "package file isn't probably signed", what does this mean, and what should I do to get facebook sync back?

Also, when i fake a provider with marketanabler to get access to paid apps, my market totally f's up. All downloads are pending at "downloading..." and never gets any further. I tried the fix about chaning my status @ Gtalk, but didnt do anything for me, any other solutions?

I got the wireless tether app and when I use it, no device can find it. I press start tethering and nothing is happening, it doesnt show up on any device wifi like my iphone and my laptop. Any ideas?
[Captivate General] startngate:
I am now using pre8. I went into the settings and set up my own SSID and security. If you haven't done that, I would start there. I also had to reboot my phone after my first install as the phone locked up on me.

Sometimes I do have issues with getting my laptop to connect properly. It will get an IP address, but not be able to connect to the internet because it doesn't get assigned a gateway.

Going into Access Control and then doing a 'Reload Client List' when this happens cures the problem.
[Captivate General] p1p3l1n3r205:
I just downloaded cognition v2.1.7 (unhelpfuls kernel) from Eclair stock. I now have the mobile ap option in my wireless folder but when I click it the ap is "not responding". I am very happy with everything so far except this one issue. Is there something I have not done like a setting change or is this an outright problem with my download? Do I need to download a wireless tether ap in addition to the new rom? Also wanna give mad kudo's to designgears. My speed and over all use of the phone now is nothing short of incredible. Will be donating soon and suggest all who use do the same. Designgears you rock!

[Captivate General] p1p3l1n3r205:
Will I lose all info if I flash 1.6? Should I do this on a full battery and could that have been a problem on first flash?j
[Captivate General] Yuna:
just disable lag fix prior to flashing. And always do backup
[Captivate General] p1p3l1n3r205:
First and foremost, thank you very much for your advice. Where can I find the lag fix? I think voodoo installed with 2.1.7 but I have no app icon for it. I have everything backed up on titanium ( I asked that before thinking because of a prior problem) but thanks also for the reminder.
[Captivate General] creepyncrawly:
You should have the lagfix by default. You heard the robot voice the first time you booted after installing 2.1.7, right? To disable the lagfix, 1.Create an extension-less file or a folder name "disable-lagfix" in /sdcard/Voodoo 2.Reboot.

If you're new to cognition, you should read the FAQ.

As far as your problem with mobilAP, I am running 2.1.6 with Atinms kernel, so I don't know if there is a problem with 2.1.7, but I think it should work correctly. When you click the AP Mobile Settings item in Wireless and Network, you should get a screen with a check box to turn on Mobile AP, plus some info. When you turn Mobile AP on, you get a screen with directions, including a passcode.

Maybe you should try reinstalling 2.1.7, or alternatively try 2.1.6.
[Captivate General] p1p3l1n3r205:
Yeah, I did, thought bout that a second after the last post. I am going to try .6, but when I do, do I flash over .7 or do I need to reflash stock and then download? I'm assuming if you guys are saying disable voodoo then there is no need to flash stock, just wanna make sure. I already have a Blackberry paper weight I don't need a 500 dollar captivate one beside it too lol.
[Captivate General] creepyncrawly:
You can flash over. But please read the FAQ (link in previous post). It's pretty much all in there.

2.0.5 pre 15.apk works fine

google - android-wifi-tether and once on the page go to the download tab

I used this link and downloaded 2.0.5 pre 15.apk this past weekend. Once I installed on my phone it worked right away. I did not have to set anything. I changed the default setting from channel 2 to 11. I have used it several times with my wifi ipad and macbook to test it and it works very well! You can aso see how to do it on you tube.
[Captivate General] boborone:
Might be a bad download. You can try getting it from the market. Next time you have wifi access, turn on airplane mode, then turn on wifi. Market search for wifi tether. Get the one that has the green wifi bars as the app symbol.

2 prereqs listed in Market:

1 Rooted (yes, I am rootted)

2 Netfilter-enabled kernel (I have absolutely no idea. I'm Captivate stock, 1-click rooted, and UTBV0.2.

Can anyone tell me how to tell if I have a netfilter-enabled kernel, or how to get one?

Hello

I'm after an app that will allow me to SSH to my droid via windows 7. What do you guys recommend I need to install on my droid to allow this?
[HD2 General] sabbourh:
okay, i just bought an hd2 ,3 days ago , and after using it i feel that i want to sell it, and if i can return it i would've done it.

why ? , well , before the hd2 i had pro2, and it seams that this is the problem

the pro2 sound quality and battery life are both great, yes it has a ****ty processor and a small screen , but what's good about having a 4.3 inch screen while i can't use the device for a whole day without the need for charging it.

and what's the use of a 1ghz processor while it drains power to get me that speed.

and most important thing of all, why don't they make this device sound quality as good as the pro2?? , come on htc ,what do you think a man will do with a 4.3 inch screen than watch movies and play games on it.

i really like the hd2, i like its speed and big screen, and winmo on it is great

now my main important feature that i need is a big screen, GREAT earpiece volume and clarity of sound, and a battery that can stay for a day or two

do you think that i can have a device that gets this , or am i going to stick forever with my pro2?
[HD2 General] nickkyboy36:
this sounds like a job for the custom roms!
[HD2 General] javip:
only bad thing i feel about the HD2 is the contract tmo forces you into.

other than that - wicked sweet roms and options once you take it home :)

give it a try before you decide against it.
[HD2 General] sumflipnol:
Regarding battery life: Try HSPLing your phone and trying different radio-roms. (If you do this, use only radios 2.06 and above and it must have ".50" in its name.) The battery life sometimes affects battery life and signal quality.

I agree, the external speaker on the HD2 isn't as great as the TP2's, but what can you do? HTC boasted the speaker quality of the TP2 whereas they boasted the screen on the HD2.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
doesn't the tp2 have 2 speakers and the hd2 have 1?

They do make extended life and extra batteries for the phone.

Why would anyone need 2 days without charging a phone? Don't you sleep?
[HD2 General] ap3604:
I've never had a problem making it through an entire day without at least 25% battery remaining on my Hd2. Mine is completely stock (no Roms) and very easy to do yourself:

- Turn off battery drainers (bluetooth, wifi, gps) until you need them

- Put screen brightness at 30% until you need it brighter

If all else fails buy a $10 spare battery off of eBay :cool:
[HD2 General] jkolner:
Try Duttys latest ROM and set backligt to 30%, and you will see that battery life is absolutly fantastic.

Regarding sound quality, use MusicBoost and a good pair of earplugs, if its the music sound you have a problem with.

If its sound quality during a call you should try Radio 2.12.50.02_2

Hope you will looooove your HD2 as i do ;-)
[HD2 General] aceo07:
I get about 60-50% battery after a full 10hrs outside and about 1.5hrs of use.

Have you tried all the threads on how to optimize battery life?

Backlight 30%, turn wifi/bt off unless you are using it. The other option is to leave a micro-usb cable at work so you can recharge at your desk if you really need it.
[HD2 General] nickkyboy36:
I have this exact combination and it's fantastic

the incall volume is now twice as loud as it was, and the battery lasts ages. highly recommend!

[Streak 5 Android Development] smokku:
Does anyone tried rebuilding boot.img for Streak?

Standard tools for unpacking and repacking the boot.img do not work, because Streak boot.img has a non-standard layout.

I managed to extract zImage and initrd manually from a working boot.img from r2-4399-streak-superboot.zip

gzip signatures 1F 8B 08 00 are at offsets:

0x49E0 - kernel

0x242000 - initrd

I extracted them manually using:

dd if=boot.img of=kernel.gz ibs=1 skip=18912 count=2348576
dd if=boot.img of=initrd.cpio.gz ibs=1 skip=2367488

But after reconstructing it into a boot.img again and flashing, Streak does not boot.

mkbootimg --base 0x20000000 --cmdline 'console=ttyMSM2,115200n8 androidboot.hardware=qcom' --kernel kernel.gz --ramdisk initrd.cpio.gz -o boot.img
fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

Even after modyfing mkbootimg sources accordingly to carlosloz post, the generated boot.img still does not boot.

Does anyone know what magic sauce Dell adds to its boot.img ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] kwaaq:
The changes that were proposed by carlosloz were identical the the changes I'd made to my mkboot the day before, and that was able to create a boot.img that did boot an extracted 4399 kernel and ramdisk.

I'll remember to post either the source or elf of it when I get home tonight for you to try.
[Streak 5 Android Development] fone_fanatic:
see this page over at android-dsl.com Edit and Re-Pack Boot Images

Attached you will find a boot.img that contains only kernel, adbd and busybox.

You may use it to see how deep the Streak Hole goes.

[Streak 5 Android Development] JoeJonnyBoy75:
OK, so I download your boot.img file and fastboot flashed it. After the reboot it comes to a black screen but I get no ADB driver prompt on my computer. I assume it's just freezing on boot.

What version of the Streak are you running the rom on?
[Streak 5 Android Development] smokku:
It's based on 4399 build, so it possibly runs on 21-EU models only.

Black screen is not good. You should see a short blank and see the Dell logo again with lower intensity of softbuttons light.
[Streak 5 Android Development] JoeJonnyBoy75:
How did you manage to get the kernel and ramdisk back together?

I'm currently working on replacing the internal sdcard with a 16GB one but I need to modify the init.rc files to make it work.
